10 Reasons Infinite Warfare Just Killed Call Of Duty

Look at pretty much any big game and the player-base is liable to have its unpleasant quarters, and CoD is no exception.

Rather than come together to try and have fun and maybe help Infinity Ward figure out how to improve the game, the fans have basically turned on one another on sites like Reddit and Steam, which only makes more casual players even more inclined to steer away from the community and maybe even the game itself.
