    @Sarkhan Yeah, plenty of players online.

    @Sarkhan The only way they going to find a REAL solution is when gamers do not show up in the lobbies anymore or the sales and downloads drop significantly.

    Sadly, It seems developers and studios do not pay much attention to the complaints until the tapes run dry. Maybe I'm a bit too sceptical about this but I haven't seen much positives lately.

    @Sarkhan there isn't an alternative to FIFA/EA FC Sport I can get it, but for a shooter like CoD ? So many of them, free to play or pay to play, XDefiant was one of them, but it will close, because players weren't there, but for CoD I don't think it will happen anytime soon, people will play and buy CoD just because it's CoD, like it was the choice by default, it made such a big name, that unfortunately whatever they'll do, you'll always find hardcore fans that will defend it, and they are millions

    @GoLLuM13 I mean, I am an hardcore fan but I am far away from defending it and honestly I cannot find anyone in the community defending the game, just hopeless nostalgic like me who keep playing the game despite all its problems ahah

    But again, besides COD problems, if I quit it today, I think there are no other choice that are good as much as COD. Because COD despite all its problems it is still better than any other recent competitors, as you said XDefiant is already dead, because people got bored quickly!

    Honestly, I hope that 1) they fix cod or 2) someone comes out with a real competitor

    I would be happy with both ahah 🤣

    @Sarkhan I beg to differ about XDefiant though, they didn't get bored, it's closing this summer because of a lack of a sufficient number of players and profitability, which means it didn't grow enough, I guess because players were on CoD no matter what 🤣 and with all the issues Ubisoft knew recently (Skull & Bones, Avatar, Star Wars Outlaws ...) they're dry on cash to sustain a free-to-play 👀 let's hope "The Finals" will stay alive for a while though 👀

    @GoLLuM13 yeah what I mean with "got bored" is that I saw many people playing for a week or 2 initially and then they stopped and they probably went back to COD, so they did not stick to it! I have not tried it honestly, I was like: if they keep playing it, I will give it a try too, but it died quickly. I heard some good things about it, but apparently not enough!
    Yeah Ubisoft situation is tricky to say the least ahah

    Honestly, its a good game but firstly, people sweat too much. And secondly THE PRICE! 70 for a damn standard edition.

    They rinse and repeat pretty much same formula, and as long as people are paying(which obviously many do) they can jack up the price and keep poopin out same old game with tweaks here and there. Zombies do look great fun but not for 70 buckeroos tho
