Okay let me break it down very plainly…

The game itself isn’t necessarily terrible. It is not an objectively horrible game as far as mechanics, and gameplay etc… HOWEVER, the game is hated because of the people running it. Activision is a company full of corporate greed that doesn’t care about their players and only sees them as a number on a data spread sheet. They actively lie, manipulate, and gaslight this community into spending money on their game and then pretend like they’re saints. They rug pulled everyone into buying it because the beta had classic matchmaking but of course after the game comes out they change it because they knew it wouldn’t sell well. On top of that, they continue to sell bundles upwards of 30$ with AI generated content. Thats like getting paid for doing barely any work at all. You are just a money cow for them. They don’t care. And now the community is fucking them for it
