News - Activision Is Worried. Warzone 2's "historically" Bad Sales Figures Revealed (cod Warzone 2 Sales Ranks)
I think for a lot of people, skill-based matchmaking just turns them away from the game. They're just like, you know, I just don't feel like playing, and I talked about that in my previous articles, like, I'm a YouTuber, and I have all the time in the world to play COD. That's kind of the benefit, like I can play a lot of article games.
I'm a YouTuber, right? But if I were back doing my job before I started doing YouTube, I used to unload trucks at Walmart. You know, I'd get off at like 11 o'clock at night or whatever you know, an 8-hour shift whatever it might be. After doing that. I don't think I would want to come home and then deal with skill-based matchmaking, like whatever the job may be, you might work an office job, you might freaking drive for a living, whatever it is, you do it like after a long day at work or whatever.
I can't imagine wanting to do all that and then go home and deal with skill-based matchmaking for a couple of hours and then go to bed and get back up and go back to work and I deal with it again like, back when what made me fall in love with C was it was relaxing and I will say this match right here was it was relaxing and engaging cuz I genuinely thought I might get a nuke and then I didn't because I suck but you know that part was exhilarating but I haven't gone on a streak like that in forever, because skillbase matchmaking is always happening like you know I'm just happy if I go positive anymore and if we can win the game you know but back in the day if you're talking about the OG Modern Warfare 2 back when we're playing on Skid Row back in 2009, you know I'm more thinking I'll get my tactical nukes and my ac130s, and my freaking fall camos and my Chopper Gunners and all that fun stuff and like the games were relaxing back then but now it just feels like we're playing for money every time I get in there and I hop into a game of domination.
And I think for a lot of people that wears on them and I think for a lot of people that turns them away from the game, sure it might help out like the newer players the whole people are trying to protect with skill-based matchmaking, but does that really make up such a massive amount to the player base?
I would love to see the numbers, and hopefully they actually go into detail with some of the stuff when they finally do talk about skill-based matchmaking. Because sure, it's fair to say that the vast majority of people that play COD are freaking ass at the game and they're really, really bad, but are we talking about 80–90% of the player base can barely even walk and shoot at the same time because it doesn't seem that way to me?
You know, I feel like over the years, people have gotten pretty good at article games. I would say maybe, like, 50% or less. Are in that bracket, but the other people are all very competent, and it just seems like they're screwing over half their player base to appease people that probably don't give that much of a about Cod anyway, like if you're so bad at the game that you can barely even go positive ever you can, you barely have a grasp on your controller, and you're just so uncomfortable and you're not really good at the game, like, do you think those people are buying the freaking black cell battle pass?
Do you think those people are buying in the shop? Do you think those people are buying the game year after year? I feel like it's the more hardcore people that they should kind of appease a little bit more, and they've done that to an extent with Modern Warfare 3. With the changes they made or reverting the changes they made, I should say to movement, the mini map, dead silence, and all that stuff.
They've done a lot of good things with this game, and I would definitely say it's catering more towards, like, you're above average, you're more hardcore, and you're a more loyal fan. But at the same time, skill-based matchmaking has ramped up to a thousand in this game, so just like, it's a weird jux position.
I don't understand, and you are going back to the sales figures here. I mean, Call of Duty is still making millions and millions and millions of dollars. By no means are they, you know, entering the poor house here—nothing like that—but it is the third time ever that they were not the bestselling game.
But for right now, that's it for this article. I just wanted to cover the news regarding Call of Duty sales figures. Day,
