🌵 RC | The Nostalgia Pro🕹️📺 (@NostalgiaPro) reported@exQUIZitely I made a post similar to this about a month ago. I bought one of the CODs for 5 bucks during the Steam Sale. I haven't played COD in years. It took around 45 minutes just to get the game started. I had to figure out what my Activision account credentials were and then figure out a driver issue for an audio bug for the game. The game also requires an active internet connection too. This is why I prefer the old games - NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, PS1, etc. You just put the game in and play. There's no extra steps required. And with NES, you're playing the game within 5 seconds of you putting in the cartridge (assuming you don't have to do any magic to get it working lol).

Caldweab (@LeftyTalk) reported@BRAP_Podcast @pixelsanddice Why are you purposely excluding other changes they made to the service? They tried COD in GP, it doesn’t work and it isn’t worth $7/month. I think we can acknowledge a game that cost $600M/yr is different than amortizing the cost of a game like say Gears over 5-6 years.
-
Dilligaf (@6UnknownEntity9) reported@YorchTorchGames Take the $84 in savings and buy CoD day 1. Problem solved. This is a win for people on a lower budget.
-
🎃Brother Scott🎃 (@Brother_scott1) reported@asha_shar Get rid of that Fortnite thing, I don’t want it in my subscription or better yet create a build a service thing where you can choose the things you want included and have their price reflect that. Day 1 cod, ea play etc. or for people who just want an indie section or something.
-
ZURG (@THENUMBERSOMAR) reported@CallofDuty Cod games a year after release remain broken
-
AnaAnsan (XSX Xbox Ally X GamePass Ultimate 💚) (@AnaAnsan3) reportedSadly, Xbox Game Pass is the only good subscription service in the market and #Xbox knows this. This is why they are doing whatever they want without worrying. PS Plus is not a threat or a competition. No one is going to say OMG COD is not Day One on Game Pass I am switching to PS Plus!
-
BeNz Goopymage01 (@jeffstire5) reported@Sinvizion @CallofDuty Buddy they lost a ton of revenue both years with newer titles. They give zero ***** about the cheater problem. You'd think doing some research would be smart but here is your dumbass take.
-
jeff (@yesitmyburner) reported@SativaShower @Bfrom916 @Dexerto The amount of money you’re saving on game pass, you can buy COD with. Do you have trouble comprehending?
-
AFlyingTurtle (@6stings) reported@XboxGamePass This won’t change COD sales numbers on Xbox m. The series is in some serious trouble.
-
virtualcitizen69 (@virtualcity69) reported@NikTek Raising the price by $8 per month to include a single game is not worth it. You'd pay $84 per year to have COD on the service. Better for anyone who is interested to just buy it for $70
-
Joseph Gonzalez (@Acehardlight98) reported@JoezMcfLy they lose a ton of money with COD on this service
-
Chad Pickard (@Chaddyillac) reported@jaydenVazkes @Battlefield lol. CoD 2.0 and broken as ****
-
Constantine Grylakis (@kosgrill) reported@DMC_Ryan It sounds like a friendly customer experience move, however a revenue gain is behind of this, aka cod not in subscription service day one.
-
Dan (@dandccordeiro) reported@Kenaadams99 @Dexerto If people subscribed just for COD that’s their problem
-
Dre (@xForGotAboutHim) reported@Dexerto 7 dollars off but now you got to spend 70 on cod to get the same service you got two months ago….
-
V (@V01111958) reported@ATVIAssist when is Activision going to fix the Call of Duty® and DMZ game platform? I paid hundreds of dollars for the games and I feel like getting cheated out of it because they’re letting this platform fall apart. Lotta cheaters hackers.
-
youngblood (@Youngbl00d717) reported@DJDEEZ @Dexerto @grok Wait so we complain about cod being bad . She decreases the price of game pass and gets the game we all call trash off gsme pass and it’s a problem?
-
Dallashausen (@DallasCSD) reported@GTAJJ_ @CallofDuty it's not a rugpull when it obviously wasn't in the plans when they bought ABK xbox's current CEO had nothing to do with what phil and sarah were up to she's just been handed the company after not working in the gaming space before and is now trying to fix it
-
| FibreOptic | ✪ (@lFibreOpticl) reported@Flaassing @Stallion83 Nah I agree. One COD starting with the orignal, every month. Announce that its a road map. And then you'll have everyone in the service eventually.
-
Kimi 🩷💜💙 (@Kimikittiekat) reported@d_linkski I like this change, I dont play COD and do not care about it. I don't play fortnite much either so the fortnite crew stuff is wasted on me mostly too but I am impressed she is actually listening and trying to fix things
-
BRAP (@BRAP_Podcast) reported@devante034 The core point is the Ultimate tier now costs more than it did in 2024 even when CoD was included. Xbox kept a $3 price hike while pulling out one of the service's biggest anchors.
-
Nicholas Hallé (@nickwales24) reported@EvilDrPorkChap @asha_shar COD sales dropped because it’s on game pass. Not every geek plays cod. Don’t like it don’t pay for the service. It’s a great decision.
-
FrankE90 (@Im_franko_mane) reported@DaniBravoG Oh now it was a bad decision? But when game pass was cheaper for ultimate it was a win. CoD will always make money. It’s still a good decision. Only when ppl weren’t willing to pony up for $30 GP was it the issue. Even for me. I was happy that I bought CoD paid $10 for live.
-
judah macabe 🟦 (@MJudahBrave) reported@SamFisher09 @SaiduMorray @kingdavidotw Give me your GPU login/password, that 84$ you'd have paid them and I'll install cod on your system. That's really all your complaining about n
-
Bmendo (@Bmendo_X) reported@Okami13_ Back in 2022 I subscribed to Game Pass Ultimate the exact day Black Ops 6 dropped day-one and it felt like Xbox finally cracked the code. Now we’re watching new CoD titles pushed to a full year later while they slash prices to $13.99 PC / $22.99 Ultimate.Contrarian take: this isn’t them killing Game Pass — it’s the only way to keep it alive after the Activision acquisition ballooned costs. Is this the beginning of a healthier, more sustainable service… or the moment the “Netflix of gaming” dream officially dies? What’s your take?
-
kain garland (@GarlandKain) reported@DOC_DARK1985 Gotta agree, don't care for cod nor Fortnite, nor Netflix. Just gived day one as usual and the rest of the games uvusially put on the service.
-
Elon musk's EX (@scary_mrjo) reported@NikTek Cod price of the game itself is like 90$-100$ even if you have monthly pass. It's good that they removed cod cause why pay for service if the game overpricing itself for players who want to buy the game
-
The Gaming Ledger (@TheGamingLedger) reported@DFilms92 @M00CHTV It's about value not necessarily price. People wouldn't pay for a service if it was $5 bucks if it didn't provide them with the value. Clearly gamers didn't find value in gamepass at scale when it was cheaper with COD included (before the $30 price hike). Now it's still more expensive than it was before they introduced COD day and date.
-
ThizGurlAmaZin (@MazeAteThat) reported@JayDubcity16 Gamepass ultimate at 23 plus paying for COD outright is still cheaper than paying $30 a month with COD in the service lol Chu talking bout RIP ? Lol
-
RUNEWALKER (@GamerCyberpunk) reported@asha_shar Problem is cod releases yearly so this makes it pointless putting cod on game pass a year later! Also its only fun for 3 months then the cheats get in and ruin it
