Activision might as well just rely on CoD warzone in this case then, just like what Epic does for Fortnite. It's a constant stream of revenue and all they ever need to do is produce the occasional lootboxes and P2P items, sit back and make a s*** load of cash

Activision also doesn't need to release a CoD every single damn year (even BF series doesnt do that) but they're clearly doing it to make quick bucks. This at the expense of innovation and effort put into their games

They want Warzone to bring people into the franchise, and then they want those players to buy the mainline games as an easier way to unlock and level up guns for Warzone. The focus being on Warzone is the biggest reason why the last three mainline CoD games have been between mediocre and just plain fucking awful, and the rushed development because they refuse to go a year without a new CoD game is the second-biggest reason. This year, it's finally biting them in the ass like never before, because Warzone and all three recent mainline CoD games are all in varying states of fucked up, and the player base is just pissed off all around.

The only positive developments in CoD's standard multiplayer over the past three years are all of the post-launch content (maps and base weapons) being free for everyone and the removal of supply drops in favor of a storefront where you know what cosmetic items you're getting for your money. But being more player-friendly with the monetization is pointless if the games themselves are buggy dumpster fires.
