Wow, this is terrible.
Just as I expected it to be!
Console gamers and people who buy these yearly franchise games: why do you hate yourselves?
These games are extremely popular on pc. As far as console gaming I love myself and I love the games I play I just don’t play these types of shit games.
I dont know what else to say but LOL
People need to stop buying games that are so blatantly anti-consumer.
No one cares about playing CoD for campaign anymore lol. The multiplayer this time isn’t a fucking nightmare of being aimbotted by idiots with no thumbs on controller and an extreme manipulative matchmaking that gives you three games against kids with cerebral palsy and then five games of nothing but omegasweats using meta weapons.
Meanwhile, Arc Raiders has AI voice acting and BF6 has the worst hit detection I’ve ever seen in an FPS. People really think they can compete with CoD and then proceed to fumble the ball every time, and those are ALSO anti-consumer practices.
then why put in the extra work and servers for singleplayer to be online?
I do…and many others do too if the game itself wasn’t such a pile of shit forcing you online because ‘its where the fun is’… I love campaigns in shooters. online play is trash unless I can play with ONLY my friends. it’s one of the main reasons I stopped paying for the garbage that they keep producing and don’t consider these companies at entertainment more then I would scraping dog shit off my shoes
You should probably stop giving money to them then. Stop buying Call of Duty games. You’re just funding anti-consumer practices.
lol, I don’t. I won’t even pirate AAA games (I always buy if I enjoy them). not worth the time because they aren’t fun.
Oh… well then why were you saying you were playing the Call of Duty campaign?
You need better reading comprehension than that before trying an aha gotcha- like that.
They didn’t say that. Just that they love campaigns in shooters.
You don’t need to own the game to try it when you have friends.
Just play a singleplayer FPS then? That isn’t CoD’s niche anymore my dude.
Why did they spend time making a single player part of the game?
Apologize harder for anti consumer practices, challenge mode: nightmare
Point to me one AAA studio that doesn’t have those. If you want to be 100% ethical you should only buy indie games, and I honestly don’t fault anyone for doing so. I just buy whatever game I find good. Unless the company is literally funding nazis, LGBTQ+ phobia (like Hogwarts Legacy), or war crimes (like Escape from Tarkov, and I also did not buy BO7 until Microsoft pulled out of giving money to Israel), if the game is good in the area I care about, I will buy it.
Microsoft pulled out of giving money to Israel
And when they resume youll return it right? Lmao
I don’t think there are any single player military shooters anymore… at least not that come to mind. I think COD drove them all out of business… Phase 1 of Enshittification.
There are many single player scenarios for arma. On top of the ones that are in the game.
It’s still a decent game.
I can point to you several other games, many of them shooters, that are singleplayer. Like, you have the three modern DOOM games and ULTRAKILL just as an example. And like, you don’t NEED to have it be new games? You can just buy old singleplayer military FPSes?? Like, just looking at my library, I have Arma: Cold War Assault, Red Alert 2: Heroes of Stalingrad, every Bioshock game, Half-Life 1 and 2, Black Mesa, Medal of Honor (2010), Crysis 2, Spec Ops: The Line…
Operation Harsh Doorstop is good for a military shooter, of which I’ve played in the past. It’s free to play too if I’m not mistaken (and the modding scene for it is quite fantastic as well).
By the same argument, why not just play last year’s CoD? It’s not really fun playing the same campaign over and over unless you’re a speedrunner or something. I want new single player experience, just like I want new TV shows and movies. I don’t have time to stay competitive in any online multiplayer games, and it seems like the only ones making single player games anymore are indie devs.
I mean I did play the BO6 campaign and quite liked it. And like. There’s hundreds of those games out there you might not have played before?
I stopped playing COD games like 57 titles ago.
That should be 3 months ago then
Modem warfare 3 was the last COD game I played and I thought it was mid.
The original modern warfare was peak COD imo (MW2 was also very good)
I played BOII, of which was arguably the best COD game of all time. I also considered playing MW Remastered for the Horizon Modern Warfare mod.
Who is this even for? Do people enjoy this?
It’s so puzzling, you can have any world you want in a video game, absolutely fantastical places to explore and take your mind off things and be intuitive and solve puzzles, there is way too much violence in the world already, I really will never get it.
I wonder what would be the mental capacity range if we sampled the group of people who buy FIFA, COD, and Forza every year.
Forza hasn’t been an annual release for almost a decade
A full width split screen zombies mode, and a full lobby of people who want to play Kino Der Toten are pretty much the only thing that would interest me in another COD BLOPS title.
I just can’t imagine who these titles are for now. I appreciate they’re trying to make the graphics and sound amazing, but these online experiences, as imagined by the developers, have taken away more than they’ve given.
The last modern warfare title I bought was MW2, that bizarro named one. I opened it a few weeks ago and the whole game has become a loader to other COD games and its multiplayer lobbies are empty. So stupid and I wish I could get a refund.
Its military propaganda. Tends to do well with military folk and is used for recruiting young people.
That’s interesting. Is there proof I can look at?
I dont know what meets the bar for proof but here’s an article to get you started:

when you specify “full width split screen zombies mode”, I’m confused — do the newer games not have split screen for zombies? I thought they carried zombies through all the new games because it was so popular
I haven’t played since black ops 2, where I quickly dropped it. only played MW2 and black ops one before that.
I’m not so sure about the latest versions, if they made local split screen better.
Black Ops 3 has the Kino der Toten map split screen but it doesn’t run full width. I’m pretty sure the same map on Black Ops 1 did run full width.
My favorite moments with these games were always playing locally, and having that keeps the game playable for as long as you own it and a working console.
yep, my favourite COD memories (almost the only, really) are MW2 with buddies, and lapping kino to high levels on split screen
I’m still not understanding, and I think this is just because what you’re describing is a really stupid thing, but are you actually saying that the local split screen is like a square aspect ratio or something?
When you say “it doesn’t run full width”, what do you mean? I’m not following either 😅 do you mean the split screen is vertical (i.e. side-by-side) rather than horizontal (i.e. one on top of the other)?
Here’s an example of the split screen not running at full width on Black Ops 3
And here’s how it used to look on Black Ops 1: https://youtu.be/lnF2W-e7e8Q
That’s weird. Maybe it’s a performance issue, they squeeze a few more FPS with narrower views.
Oh, that’s strange! And you’re saying that this happens only on this map? The not-full-width thing, I mean?
Bwahahahahaha what a GAAS nightmare. Don’t buy this obvious scam.
Reason that the Stop Killing Games initiative is important number… What are we on now?
That wasnt a thing since 2015
Oh boy I also hope this comes with the login queue battle royale mechanic (video) as well. Couldn’t call it a modern AAAA experience without one.
Single player mode? Noooo, you always have Activision by your side. Watching.
I’m absolutely glad I’m not playing BO6 Part 2, which is what this game is. Forget that nonsense, I’d rather go to BOII, BO4, MW Remastered, or even BOIII for that matter.
I heard the BOIII modded zombies scene has been cooking some good stuff as time goes on.
“Wake up honey, assassin’s creed 2 DRM came back in 2025!”
Hell, does the average Call of Duty player even play the campaign anymore? I thought it was all multiplayer these days.
