![]() There just aren't many entertainment franchises on earth that can generate the kind of passion that Call of Duty can. We love that our fans treat this franchise like their own and have such strong points of view about it. This is an industry like no other and a fan base like no other. Here's his response:įirst of all, you gotta love the passion of gamers. Hirshberg did his best to stay positive and provide some context. And, according to Activision, there's a bright side to all the attention Infinite Warfare's premiere trailer has been getting.ĭuring an earnings call today, Activision CEO Eric Hirshberg was asked about the mass dislikes flooding Call of Duty's YouTube channel. The video has garnered more than 187,000 likes, however, so the response hasn't been universally negative. Activision says it won't sell Modern Warfare Remastered separately. ![]() The two most recent Call of Duty games, Black Ops 3 and Advanced Warfare, also featured futuristic settings, but kept the action on Earth.Īnother source of negativity is Activision's decision to attach the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered, a made-over version of Call of Duty 4, to Infinite Warfare. Infinite Warfare features space travel and battles on distant planets, and many viewers have been making unkind comparisons to franchises like Halo and Star Wars, saying they'd prefer a more grounded, realistic Call of Duty. Many of the complaints from YouTube commenters center on the futuristic sci-fi bent Infinity Ward is taking with this year's entry. With 370,000 dislikes (and growing), the overwhelmingly negative response has made Infinite Warfare's trailer one of the most disliked videos on YouTube. But many viewers - hundreds of thousands of them - have expressed their displeasure with the futuristic Call of Duty by giving the video a thumbs-down. The first trailer for this year's Call of Duty game, Infinity Ward's Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, debuted on YouTube on Monday and has since racked up more than 8 million views.
