Why play a game that constant freezes, crashes and kicks you for no reason almost every time you play it?

Not surprising. A ton of people were going to try it the first few days and never play again no matter what. And now with all the issues its even more players than anyone could have predicted.
Hi_im_nsk
Steam is the smallest platform for cod, also alot of folk moved to battlenet as it was ment to be crashing less.. this report doesnt mean much

TheMotorDoctor

Most people are waiting for Resurgence then they’ll come back

Why play on Steam when the launcher causes additional crashes and its free to switch to blizzard with no loss of progression? Youd have to be an idiot not to. Youd also have to be an idiot to post this while ignoring that its the #2 top selling game on Steam, the #1 most played game on xbox live AND the most played game on playstation according to Gameinsights.io.

Steam is just 1 source of this game’s community, just because steam is reporting a big drop in players doesnt mean console or battlenet users are having big drops off the game too

I posted this on Reddit and it gained traction and picked up by a few CoD media outlets.
Steam numbers are a fairly good indicator of battle.net but would certainly be a weaker indicator of Playstation and X-Box numbers.

Compared to what?

I’ve noticed way more issue reports from PC players on here than console players, so it might be that PC players are playing less due to bugs and the game is fine on console.
So that and the thing the top comment says about the comparison days not being apples to apples

It’s also well known that people freeze more often on steam, most of my friends are using something different.

I’ll still be playing it, sorry not sorry but I like the game

All I see from this subreddit is CONSTANT bitching. Shit is unbearable.

Considering I don’t use steam. Yeah I do.

I mean, considering it’s close to PUBG numbers, this isn’t all that bad. You’d be a fool to expect numbers to stay at 400,000 consistently. This ain’t DOTA

Unplayable for me. So choppy/laggy

I really think my biggest gripes are the absurd amount of glitches, absurd SBMM, and lack of anti cheat. I really really like everything else, but fuck those 3 problems ruin it

I mean that’s no surprise, every (skeptical) new player basically came into a bug-lack-of-QOL oblivion and decided to QUIT and most likely to NEVER RETURN.
It honestly feels like we are playing some Early Access title, it’s fucking ridiculous.

I want to check again on the pace of decline after this recent patch has settled in and the holiday period.
So far it is not looking like a huge bump from this patch https://steamcharts.com/app/1938090 but it is early days.
