I know for an absolute fact that a lot of you have quit Call of Duty multiple times throughout your
careers your life spans of playing Call of Duty as a franchise myself included many of you watching
this video probably either used to play Call of Duty or you still do but if you are a Call of Duty
player you probably used to play it a lot more than you do today so what changed why are so many
people walking away from this franchise welcome to the channel everybody chaos today we're going
to look at those reasons those glaring burning reasons why people are quitting the Cod franchise
in the comments you can tell me which reason you relate to the most keep it constructive drop a
like on the video make sure you're subscribed to the channel and the first one is simple you're
tired of the bugs I don't blame you if you're one of the many people who has walked away from Call
of Duty as a franchise because of all the bugs I get it it's hard to get invested in the game
when you never know if it's actually going to run properly you never know if you're going to lose
your match progress because the game crashed or if you're going to lose an important gunfight because
the game stuttered or if you're just gonna look at your stats to discover the challenge you were
working on wasn't even being tracked Call of Duty is incredibly buggy and I don't know how that's
still possible when they literally have thousands of people working on it but it is I say it every
year I hope Call of Duty fixes its bugs in the near future but at this point I think it's just
another thing about the series that will probably never go away before we move on guys get in on
this if you are a Spider-Man fan specifically across the spider verse they have free limited
edition across the spider-verse Shakers these are the steps to get them the link is at the
top of the description they will go fast so you guys definitely definitely check them out and all
the deals that are going on right now that is a vitamin shop G fuel collab those shakers are fire
next up you're tired of the sweats I'm not talking about the meat sweats I'm not talking about the
sweats you get when you get a fever I'm talking about Cod sweats Call of Duty has always had its
fair share of sweats they've always been there but they've never ever ever been this sweaty and
this close together Modern Warfare 2 in Warzone had some ridiculous players and I do respect
the amount of effort it takes to be a sweat in this game but it's not fun to play against you
in previous Cod games sweaty players were at least or at least weren't the obnoxious thing
they were today because the gameplay was still fun but in Modern Warfare 2 in war zone 2 the gameplay
isn't Fun in the first place so when people are running around being super sweats it's all Cod
Champs it makes the game somehow even less fun but honestly I'd rather have sweats than campers
Capers camping is another thing that's always been in Call of Duty but never to the degree that it
is now campers are everywhere in the modern Cod devs have made a very clear crystal clear they're
okay with that the maps are designed for them the guns are designed for them the challenges
are designed for them the lighting is designed for them literally everything in Modern Warfare
2 is designed for campers and bad players and Infinity Ward did such a fantastic job that the
game is insanely unfun for anybody who doesn't want to camp I mean they even gave the campers
a special nickname remember they don't want to call you campers they want to call you Sentinels
not a camper anymore you're a cool Sentinel and at this point you're ruining what little fun is
left in the game Sentinels are still campers next up you don't have the time this is an interesting
one but it's one that I hear a lot back in the day Call of Duty used to be a pretty easy game
to grind because of all the challenges they were actually based on Merit they relied on
you doing specific things but now a lot of the unlocks are completely tied to time played and
they require this ridiculous amount of time for you and a lot of other people it's discouraging
why would you log on to a game that's based around progression if you know for a fact
that you don't have the time to unlock the stuff that you really want a lot of people are walking
away from Cod because of how much of a grind everything is now and I honestly can't blame them
at number six DMZ resets it was recently announced that DMZ is completely being reset with the season
4 update and this is not the first time it's happened a lot of people weren't happy about
it and I know it's extraction based games they do wipes from time to time I get it but a lot of DMZ
players aren't happy about the fact that all their work is going right down the tubes without much
warning I don't think it's weird for people to want their efforts in a high State game like DMZ
to have some long lasting lasting effect you put the time in you earned it but speaking of DMZ DMZ
pay to win bundles I can't believe I I said that but I did the fact that legitimately pay to win
mechanics I've been introduced to DMZ is insane to me it blows my Minds I I don't have Minds I
have one mind but it blows multiple mines anyway I'm honestly amazed that Activision Infinity Ward
thought they would uh slide it in there there's a few paid bundles available in the store that
give you immediate and obvious advantages when you use them in the DMZ mode meeting there's a way to
literally pay real world money and get a gameplay advantage in an extraction shooter that's just
fundamentally going against the point of the game but it's also insane that something so obviously
pay to win and predatory makes it into Call of Duty after all the controversies these franchise
has dealt with throughout the years regarding other micros transaction models I thought the
move to Seasons in battle pass meant they didn't have to do stuff like that part of me is wondering
if there's actually going to be another massive overhaul of the business model soon so Activision
is just throwing everything at the wall before that happens because if you blame playing Cod
for a while you know this isn't the first time back during the Black Ops 4 life cycle Activision
started monetizing the game more aggressively than ever before they implemented a battle pass a Daily
Item store in supply drops on top of all the paid season passes and as it turns out it was likely
because Modern Warfare 2019 the next game in the series was completely overhauling the monetization
so the fact that God is once again becoming super monetized kind of worries me and leads me
to believe there is going to be a huge change in the business model within the next year
or so but until then grate your teeth because nothing excuses the addition of literal pay to
win mechanics like that number four the time to kill is too quick I don't know why Call of Duty
still insists on having a ridiculously fast time to kill but it needs to go out the window with
the time to kill being so fast it makes these gun fights feel random makes them feel uncompetitive
Call of Duty has always been a PR it's always had a pretty quick ttk but before Modern Warfare 2019
it was never fast to the point that the game felt that unfair Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2
have serious ttk problems that still have not been ironed out simply because Infinity War wants the
game to be this way that's not good it's honestly gotten frustrating as a fan of the franchise to
see how many things in the community have you been unified on and yet the problems remain
unfixed I don't like I don't I don't feel like the community is asking for much when they want the
time to kill to be slightly turned down do you at number three you are an ex-labs player this is a
heartbreaker for those that don't know xlabs is a fan project that helped revive older Call of Duty
games on PC and keep them safe the most popular one iw4x for the classic Modern Warfare 2 but
x-labs also hosted servers for Ghosts Black Ops 3 and I believe Advanced Warfare but Activision
hit them with a cease and desist in May of this year and I'm baffled x-labs was a godsend for PC
players who wanted to play classic Cod games but didn't want to worry about hackers and cheaters
plus there were so many mods available for the games through X Labs that made the experience
better iw4x from Modern Warfare 2 was popular activism choosing to shut it down really makes
no sense because it's not like they were making any money off the classic Modern Warfare 2 games
anymore needless to say if you were an ex-labs player you probably walked away from Call of
Duty altogether after the last month I get it at number two you were waiting for SM to speaking of
cease and desist ex-labs weren't the only ones to receive that from Activision in May the sm-2
project was this highly anticipated fan game that was basically going to be a greatest hits Call of
Duty game that featured dozens of guns maps all throughout Call of Duty history complete with a
unique progression system and tons of cosmetic content and it was all going to be completely
free to the player and the developers they weren't going to make any money from it they were simply
doing it out of love for the franchise however after years of development the sm-2 devs announced
in May that Activision had shut them down it wasn't even out to the public yet but it seems
Activision was concerned that the fan project was actually going to outperform the official Call of
Duty release or at least that's the only reason I could think of that they would all of a sudden
crack down on them despite the project publicly existing for years Activision seems to have had
a change of heart when it comes to Fan projects and Call of Duty and it's a shame because these
these were amazing these were amazing they brought the community together and finally
you were a PC player in general PC players have been getting seriously screwed over recently in
the late 2010s Activision decided to start putting more effort into their PC Call of Duty ports and
for a while it looked promising the PC ports of Black Ops 4 Modern Warfare 2 2019 were pretty
solid But as time went on things got worse not only do the PC versions of Call of Duty come with
this ridiculous performance issue and a horrible optimization table but now Activision is going
around sending cease and desist letters to people just trying to keep the classic car games alive on
PC so if you're a PC player who likes Call of Duty you can't play classic cods without dealing with
cheaters and you can't play Modern cods without dealing with the optimization and the crashes it's
a very frustrating video I apologize but that's where we're at and that's the state of things let
me know if you've walked away from Call of Duty or if you're still hanging on I'll see you soon
