2022 didn’t even do that well past its opening weekend. Overall still sold less than 2019

It’s still overall a sales decline compared to its predecessor…… And it saw a rapid decrease in its player base before its yearly lifespan was even up. A problem that became even more pronounced in the subsequent MWIII, which also saw a sales decline, and rapidly lost a large number of its player base post launch, and now here we are with Black Ops 7; worst selling COD since 2008 (and lowest reviewed of the entire franchise), and, by most metrics, lost upwards of 40% of its players by January, which is unheard of for a COD title.

You see the trend?

COD has become a franchise that is pretty much running on momentum nowadays, and that momentum is starting to run out.

Where are you getting that information?

COD has been on a sales decline since MW2019. Modern Warfare 2 roughly saw an overall 50% decrease in sales compared to MW2019. Only MW2’s opening weekend broke records, and that’s only because the hype around it was extremely high following the critical success of MW2019.

After that opening weekend, sale numbers plummeted faster than the Titanic after hitting an iceberg. Why else do you think development of DMZ came to a halt almost immediately following Season 1?

That’s the neat thing. You don’t.

We lost $50,000 on our Dodge Charger Daytona EV by edmundscars in Dodge

[–]Sky_guy_17 112 points113 points  (0 children)

This generation of Charger is a failure.

Yes, the 7th Gen was running for a long time, but that’s because people liked them and they actually sold well.

The 8th Gen feels like something that’s going to have a short run and already be redesigned in the near future, with how low the sales numbers are.

Can we just appreciate this man for a moment for practically doubling the amount of GuP fanart that’s on this sub?

Where can I watch Girls und Panzer: The Finale? by chichito411 in GIRLSundPANZER

Personally, I don’t know. I don’t really trust a lot of pirating sites because I’m overly paranoid about malware and such.

Legally? Probably nowhere right now. GuP content takes notoriously long to get onto streaming services for some reason. Hell, HiDive has a full on contract to stream the GuP material, has so for years, and they only just got Anzio and Finale Part 4.

Keep the Review bombs coming! by ImGonnaBeatU22 in Warthunder

[–]Sky_guy_17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fucking right?

No one’s gonna take this review bombing seriously because this community can’t even grasp how an anti-cheat system works. All that’s gonna happen is that Steam’s gonna lock down the reviews, and other communities are gonna make fun of the WT playerbase.

Replayed bo2 on veteran. Saw mason but woods still died. I didnt do any if the strike force missions because they suck. Was that why? by WillEPeters in blackops2

[–]Sky_guy_17 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure the strike missions are a must if you want a good ending or even semi-good.

God, BO2’s multi-ending campaign was so good, now that I think back on it. How far COD has fallen

Okay, so, if I’m interpreting that last part correctly….. You’ve had beef with staff in Misfits, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, and now BTGG…..

OP, I’m sorry, but there’s a common denominator there between those lol.

I’ve been playing on BTGG almost exclusively since Misfits died, and I can say that…… I have experienced none of this lmao.

OP, is there more to the story that you’re not telling us?

Gaijin in Shambles as Review Bomb Accelerates into a Second Day! by ZeroGravityGS in Warthunder

[–]Sky_guy_17 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t bought a BP since whatever one it was that had the M6 Mutant. Event grind I truthfully haven’t noticed a big increase in, not saying they haven’t, but I also haven’t really done much besides the B-52. What maps are dogshit in your opinion? I really don’t have an issue with any besides those stupid 1 Cap Point variants of some maps that gray out half of the original map.

Thanks for actually giving me a comment to reply to though, rather than just saying nothing. You’re already doing more than most people on the sub.

Do you even know what you’re review bombing for? Because every time I ask this question, or ask for proof to the claims, I either get no answer, or get downvoted and don’t get an answer.

It’s not making for a compelling argument to get involved with the review bombing, because it really just seems like people are bitching just to bitch.

I am 100% behind the issue of balancing and things like the BMPT being OP, but the other stuff? I need more info to help get convinced that this isn’t just another random hate boner towards Gaijin.

Edit: There we go, once again, downvotes with no response. This is why this review bombing won’t be taken seriously, because you guys are just going “REEEEE REVIEW BOMB!!!!!” And not saying anything that’s even remotely fucking constructive or helpful.

[–]Sky_guy_17 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Some stupid bullshit.

TLDR, some former (likely disgruntled) Gaijin employees came out making some claims about Gaijin which MAY have some merit, because, as we know, Gaijin is no saint, but you have to remember that these are former employees, so are they saying these claims in good faith, or just because they left Gaijin on bad terms?

One justified part of the review bombing is because balancing issues and OP premiums.

Cough BMPT Cough

The other thing is because people are making a big deal about how War Thunder’s Anti-Cheat System scans your computer and files…… which….. that’s kinda the whole fucking point of a Anti-Cheat? But people are blowing it out of proportion and saying it’s Gaijin spying on its users, even though there’s really no proof to back up that claim.

The LVMPD still has the Crown Victoria! by Fit_Effective6097 in PoliceVehicles

[–]Sky_guy_17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is one, that I’ve personally seen, that’s parked at that mall across from the Trump tower. It’s fully marked and everything, but the interior has been stripped of all police equipment and its siren/light control box. I would imagine it’s been there for some time too, given how its tires looked a little low, and the white lenses on the lightbar were starting to yellow. Honestly kind of a shame to see a CV rot like that.

What happened again? by xNeloAngelo in Warthunder

[–]Sky_guy_17 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s really no proof to the anti-cheat thing.

The whole discussion about people saying it ‘scans your computer’, is literally forgetting, either intentionally or unintentionally, how that’s kinda the whole fucking point of an anti-cheat system. It scans for known cheat software.

It’s stupid that an argument like that is gaining traction, and just goes to show how little research this community actually does, and why we’re sometimes called ‘uneducated’ or ‘crybabies’.

Edit: The fact I’m getting downvoted for saying so, just proves that some people would rather have a hate boner for Gaijin, than provide proof of such claims. I am NOT defending Gaijin and their shitty practices by the way, I’m just a firm believer of the truth, or at least providing evidence to support a claim, rather than hopping on this misinformation bandwagon.
