A Call of Duty Reddit fan has brought attention to a major issue in Activision's yearly release strategy that many fans have not considered.

Many members of the Call of Duty community are not happy with the game's developers at the moment. Whether they are PC or console fans, the community is not looking forward to another title in 2021. With Activision keeping to its yearly Call of Duty release, many community members wonder if the games will be as buggy and broken as Modern Warfare and Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War were at launch.

The Call of Duty series has had a mixed reputation after its most recent releases. Bugs and glitches have been rampant in the franchise, and many fans are concerned that the yearly cycle has something to do with it. With the developers seemingly rushed to produce a new title, Call of Duty continues to be in a glitchy release pattern these last few years.

For Call of Duty Reddit user Dead1y-Derri, there needs to be a change, as he expressed in his post. Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War has had three months of updates since its release, and many members of the game's community still see it as broken. Although Dead1y admits that they have fixed most of the major bugs, the game still feels unpolished and almost unfinished. With the Call of Duty franchise on a one-year rotation, to have the most current title be filled with bugs for 3 months of that year is a major problem. Dead1y points out that they could have delayed the game due to COVID and pushed Modern Warfare for another year, but instead, they released an unpolished game.

This discussion is sparked by the realization that Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War will be replaced in November. The community has been constantly aggravated by the passive attitude from Activision and their development teams, and no amount of fan feedback seems to shift it.

Many players in the community are seeing Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War as clear evidence that Activision considers the money over the game. Long time fans believe that Activision is actively cashing in on the game's popularity rather than producing quality content.

With Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War topping the sales charts, Activision has almost no reason to fix the title. If players and fans are willing to buy a half-finished game, then finishing it is a waste of precious time for the development teams. Fans hope that Activision will either improve their game's quality or move away from the yearly release schedule.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
