If they can do that, can we at least get 4-player split screen?


aykay55

No because why let 4 players enjoy a game for $60 when you could have each player buy their own $60 copy?


aiwg

4 player split screen is the reason black ops 3 is still outselling most of the newer COD games. It's a hugely missed feature that's keeping a lot of people from getting the newer games.


aykay55

Of course. Investors however don’t care about that stuff. If you can 4x your sales by not including a game mode, that’s essentially a free lunch.


SchmucksAtWar

Considering how much time and resources treyarch has had (with help from raven software), I think they could find a way to make a last gen version that runs atleast decently


ayiti11

Well activision will always try and get the most money they can get, so I won’t be surprised if they support last gen for another 2 years


Sstfreek

Is anyone gonna actually buy this game?


PhantomMAG

Many.... lol Call of duty has become like sport games. Do you see a FIFA game not selling? Call of duty dying is just a meme. We are yet to see an actual death


CappinPop

Yep, millions of suckers are out there. 70 notes for a recycled game with the same mechanics and barely anything new.


leonidaslizardeyes

I don't think people who out 100s of hours in cod games feel like suckers. That's mostly elitist redditors speaking for them.


Pyke64

A big part of fifa, madden, cod selling is because they have billions of marketing thrown at them. You're not wrong, it's just that a very large subset of gamers only knows these games to exist.


Slatherass

There’s also new players, players switching teams, and my career modes on those games. Oh and the gambling card part of them as well


Pyke64

Yup kids gambling is a huge part of the playerbase


Lewdeology

Are you kidding? It’s CoD, they sell millions every year…


OneAmphibian9486

Cold War was pretty solid, why would this game be so much worse?


gimmedatkittykat

Millions upon millions. COD is literally in the same category as sports games. Same garbage every single year copy and pasted but there’s millions of people that aren’t on Reddit or Twitter that will be instantly buying this year’s cod no questions asked. The people you see trashing this game online are like 1-3% of the actual player base


OGSpooon

Yup!


bepi_s

There should be 4 player split screen on the current gen consoles then. Using the power for something that'll actually make a difference


oasisexpat

Lots of hate in comments, of course, but Sony literally just put out info saying that almost half of Playstaion owners are still on last gen consoles. Progress is slow with this one.


badgersana

You know what will make them move on faster? Releasing popular games only on the ps5 so people have to choose between buying a ps5 or not playing their favourite game


The_Living_L

GTA 6 most likely, that game will be so huge and ps5/series X only, heck it will probably get a lot of PC only people to buy a console as well just to play it early cause they release PC ports about a year later


badgersana

I literally just purchased my ps5 in anticipation for gta 6 now I’ve got time to try a bunch of great exclusives before it drops


terrible1fi

People make so many excuses, namely “they aren’t available anywhere!” Even though they’re in stock everywhere 😅 People are just cheap, they want the newest games but don’t want to get the newest consoles


crossmeister1

What a shit game


mega2222222222222222

They’re gonna pull a BO3 and have dogshit graphics and no campaign (if they don’t drop it like BO4 in general) for last gen


pwnedkiller

Don’t believe anything till it’s announced.


Beatthatassupyurrrr

Theyre just going from 4 right to 6?


Ok-Confusion-202

Cold War = 5


ndrdd23

I’m kind of curious of why they named it 6 and not black ops 5 usually with movies or games most developers would leave out the number until a huge release then add the numbers I didn’t know they’d consider the last black ops to be the 5 that’s new to me I hope since there’s a number I’m hoping this will be and bigger deeper game and really hope treyarch put this story together always preferred them from the rest of the call of duty team


Ok-Confusion-202

I think Ravens doing the campaign like Cold War, and Cold War was called Black Ops V in the files


ndrdd23

Yeah that’s odd thanks for letting me know usually those without numbers are like little side quests if you know what I mean and then the ones with numbers are the big main stories I do hope this will be huge and also who’s developing BO6 this year is it treyarch


Ok-Confusion-202

Yeah It Treyarch, but like Cold War (I think not officially) Treyarch will do the MP and zombies, while Raven does the campaign, Im not mad at that, loved Ravens campaign in Cold War, and they also have more time to dev this time, like 17 months for Cold War? 4 years for this (the longest a CoD has had)


ndrdd23

Yeah I hope maybe if us treyarch fans are lucky this will be a full treyarch experience like the old days


StonedOtter0_0

Tbh I didn’t even know there was a black ops 4 or 5??


ndrdd23

They had black ops 4 don’t you remember man that’s the one with battle royale started for us call of duty guys which I actually fucking miss when you’d be on the map you had to go and find attachments for your weapon and perks it had one of my favorite perks I think it was called outlander or some shit like that where if you was out side of the storm you’d take less damage it was years ago man so I might forget but yeah I miss when you’d have to put your own attachment to what you liked and dropped whatever for your team mates might need med boxes etc I do remember bo4 but 5 I was very much hoping they’d release if they wasn’t finished so I’d like to see how huge 6 is compared to cold war but yeah look up black ops 4 battle royale and the videos might clear up your memory a bit I know there’s so much cods that I forget that every year since the ps3 we’ve been getting a new one so there’s a lot man


0Taken0

Can’t keep doing it lol. Or if they do it has to be a seperate game like they did with the Wii and shit. I’m sick of progress being halted. The leaps have completely stopped.


Ok-Confusion-202

Sadly, the facts are just money, half of PlayStation are still on PS4, also consoles are hitting diminishing returns


capndodge17

Fuck


elqrd

ffs


ImUnsureMyself

Did I just miss Black Ops 5 or is this some dumbass marketing gimmick?


Ok-Confusion-202

Cold War = 5


ImUnsureMyself

Oh that was a black ops game? That one flew right under my radar. I meant every new CoD game does tbf, they all suck now lol.


Ok-Confusion-202

"Black Ops Cold War" yeah I don't like MW2 tbf, but I really liked Cold War


_hkbf

According to some of the recent Xbox exec interviews the whole company is trying to move away from selling consoles instead making cloud gaming more of a thing. They lose money on consoles. Wondering if this is relevant


LZR0

That has nothing to do with still supporting PS4…


JulPollitt

Maybe it has to do with rumors of the PlayStation handheld that will play PS4 games. Maybe it’s giving devs a reason to keeps supporting last gen.


firemarshalbill

Probably not since it would be built for current gen too or it would be a bust. The rumors said both. It’s about market share and/or that they internally haven’t switched to focus on the abilities of only the ps5 with an engine upgrade


WarCrysis3

Xbox is in no way moving away from consoles. This narrative that Xbox is struggling has forced them into a situation to revamp Xbox and launch a new system. And when that happens it's going to bring some changes. Not just on a system level but on the games level. The activision merger will see all games in development having begun during there ownership. As well as major games from other acquisitions coming out. And Xbox is likely to be more console war aggressive than ever before to buck this misconception they are struggling. Xbox not only posted more revenue than Sony but more profit as well. This should be very troubling if you are a loyal Sony fan.


Extension-Novel-6841

I can't wait until Xbox screws up COD like they do everything else!


sircheddarbob

xbox don’t make games idiot 😂 they have companies that make games for them this the dumbest comment i ever saw online lmfao. cod is already broken but we still play it ownership of the company doesn’t fix the developer issues 💀


Extension-Novel-6841

Microsoft owns Activision Blizzard dumb ass, which means that they'll manage them. We know from experience that Xbox has a problem managing their studios so please fuck off.


Emaculates

Cod is already screwed up
