Even if a good portion of them are bots, That's still pretty impressive.
>>336955272
Wow...
>>336955272
Huh...
Why the hate? It just looks like a normal shitty cod game?
So... why exactly did so many people downvote the new CoD trailer? It doesn't look any worse than the typical CoD trailer. Why would this finally be the one where players say, "enough; it's getting old now."
>>336955115
I know nothing about that trailer, why does it have so many dislikes?
>>336955540
because its the third futuristic cawadooty in a row and even normalfags are tired of it
Literally happens every time and CoD games sell better than BF because dice is fucking retarded
One day you see dice devs talking shit on how the new cod trailer isn't based on gameplay, then the next day dice releases a trailer with 1.5 seconds of gameplay
>>336955539
combination of new cod and cod 4 remaster being $80
>>336955540

>>336955115
The way Youtube works, likes are equal to dislikes statistically, so everyone who disliked it instead of ignoring just gave them more publicity
>>336956115
The funny thing is that investors who know nothing about the internet take this stuff seriously.

Its already got more dislikes before BF trailer came out.
>Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare' Is Already Being Overshadowed By The 'Modern Warfare' Remaster

>>336955115
Doesnt this story make anyone else feel proud? A no name brand like battlefield came out of nowhere, competed head on with the most popular shooter of all time, and eventually superseded it in popularity. Competition can be nice. If activision wants to do damage control, they will sell COD4 remaster individually
>>336955115
Do you honestly believe millions aren't going to buy it anyways?
The game is going to come out and make buckets of cash. At the end of the day companies like Activision only listen to one thing: sales.
Expect Infinite Warfare 2.
>>336957024
Fucking forbes already talked about the CoD trailer fuck up.
You don't need shitaku for this, Activision own trailer is doing it to them self by announcing MW remster.
Not a single CoD trailer got more dislike than likes before this shit happen.
Oh man, everytime I see a CoD thread, I get excited again. Here's what I want in multiplayer

Darn, the game will only sell 10 million copies instead of 15! (highly fucking doubtful, plus they'll need sub 2m numbers to take a loss on the game which is impossible with a franchise this big).
Activision investors are still sitting pretty. The game will still pull in disgusting numbers and there's nothing Youtube dislikes can do to stop it.

Dumb frogposter.
The funny is, the youtube business doesnt measure likes vs. dislikes, they just think of the whole thing as an "engagement measure." In other words, as long as you care enough to click up OR downvote, then you care enough and they dont really care what your opinion is. You're "engaged"
So if they're just looking metadata, they might not even realize this is a bad sign
>>336958141

What the fuck are you talking about nigger 1942 was one of the most played and praised games of it's generation.
Wasn't it even out before the first CoD? I might be showing my age then. And I remember the best developers breaking off from Medal of Honor which at the time had been the best WW2 franchise for years.
>>336958398

>>336958663
1942 was out in 2002, CoD was 2003, yes.

wait what is this a new game why are they calling it battlefield 1? is this a reboot?
>>336955115
As someone who blindly hates all CoD games what made others hate this one?
>>336955401
/v/ is actually pretty indifferent when it comes to Call of Duty. Sure it's shat on here and there, but nobody really cares about it. Its annual release is just a fact of life at this point.
>>336958931
Because it's going back to WW1 so they thought this would be a clever title.
>>336959032

They're also making CoD4 remastered (a HD remake of the first game to really ignite the CoD craze), but instead of selling it separately you have to buy it alongside Infinite Warfare in a $80 package.
It'd be like if they made a beautifully remastered Devil May Cry but made it downloadable content for DmC.

It's pretty obvious that EA have just paid for the dislikes following the recent controversy with Ghostbusters. Looking at how much negative PR that movie is getting right now, I think that's what they were aiming for.
Like the other anon said, DICE let the the cat out of the bag when they boasted about how they thought their game would have the better social media reaction.
Even with the CoD4 remaster only being available at the $80 dollar price point, most normies aren't going to give a fuck. It's CoD. They're all hyped for it, they're all gonna buy it. Don't get suckered by EA's marketing blatant tactics.
>>336959216
That was more in jest than in malice, I think.
If you want to see a game /v/ really genuinely hated and mocked, look at Mass Effect 3 or DmC. The Press F thing was just a funny screenshot.
Also F
>>336959860
no, it's the cod 4 bundle
>activision investors are shitting themselves
no they're not, their stock shot up almost 8.5% on Friday. activision is doing just fine, they don't care about the public perception of the COD franchise because they know 12-year olds will beg their moms to buy it for christmas anyway. they have this pattern locked down, and cod 4 remastered will definitely boost their sales
>>336959882
Subtle.
>>336955539
They used a bad bowie cover in respect for the guy, then mob mentality kicked it. You can see it if you skim through the comments.
>>336959882
I think you're mostly right about the dislikes being bought. Battlefield's had a huge rivalry with CoD ever since BC2, and it's obvious. Everyone from the developers to the fans talk shit about Call of Duty like their game is any better.
What you're wrong about is the fact that CoD fans will buy it regardless. CoD games (and shooters in general) aren't as popular as they were in their heyday.
it's still going to sell a dick ton of copies
all the dipshits who get angry about this shit just like jumping on bandwagons, once the game comes out they'll jump at the chance to play it
My inner marketeer is tingling, thank God for user engangement!

No amount of brigading is going to give you that ratio of dislikes that fast. That ratio did not drop organically. It shot down.
Even if there was a huge Twitter campaign with a clever hashtag that was trending for the past 3 days, which there wasn't, it still wouldn't have gone down that fast.
It's blatantly guerrilla marketing.

I feel like you are underestimating how many people would watch a COD trailer, and how many of them are stupid kids in their teens who just learned who david bowie was because of his death.
>>336960329
You'd be surprised. All the normies I work with play 2 games exclusively. CoD and FIFA.
I agree shooters are dying out but come 2017 don't be surprised when CoD is the best selling game of 2016.
>>336955115
Why? There's plenty of retards to buy their game and day one on disc doc

Reminds me of the 13 year old metalfags who used to spam Justin Bieber videos with dislikes because their favorites weren't getting as much views. The game looks really meh but it's something that stupid teenagers hate intensely because it makes them feel special to dislike something that's popular.
>>336956919
>image.jpg
>>336960930
Also, look at the speed at which it has garnered all those dislikes. 3 days. In 72 hours it has received more dislikes than the new Ghostbusters trailer which was been out for 2 months, and has been watched nearly 37 million times. That's exactly 3 times as many as CoD.

Off topic, but is there a server browser for MW2 on PC? There's 700 people online, but I only see about 300 actually playing.
I liked the trailer (besides the shit space oddity cover) and I'm looking forward to Infinity Ward ripping off Black Ops 3. But after the amount of dislikes I switched to a dislike too just for fun. I'm still mad about Ghosts being shit but still having the insanely cool Snoop Dogg VO pack.

It's been 3 days. The video has considerably less views than others in the list. There have been no Twitter hashtags trending. Herd mentality would make sense if the video's ratio was dropping organically, but this is dropping like a ton of bricks.
The most recent comparison is Ghostbusters. 3x as many views as CoD, out for 2 months. Even though the director is sperging out on Twitter daily about the patriarchy and the entire affair is being written about all over online. It's garnered it's dislikes much more organically over time. There's no way this isn't the work of bots or a marketing department.
>>336965236
sounds more like you're a bad player.. git gud.
>>336965381
no, it's literally herd mentality
go look in the comments and you'll find hundreds of kids saying "we did it guys 1 million dislikes!"

>>336965632
>>336965381
i think it's both honestly. with something like cod it's not hard to encourage others to dislike a video. you know, like the herd mentality was what ea hoped to instigate. that's the whole power of social media anyway, since there's so much quantification, people can easily be manipulated so that something appears to trend.
>>336965632
It's amazing how easily gamed people are into believing everyone on the Internet is a genuine person. This isn't 2003 anymore friend. Companies have realised you can make money by forming consensus online, it's why you get paid shills on nearly every popular online platform now. Hell, as another anon mentioned even Hillary paid for online shills.

force =/= impulse
There is no justifiable reason for it to have so many dislikes. Another year, another disappointing cod. why does this game specifically have so many people actively hating it? cod hasn't been good for years. At this point people are just jumping on the bandwagon because it's funny to see a major thing get so much hate, just like the ghostbusters movies.

So they basically just want the exact same shit every year and sperg out whenever they're presented anything even remotely different? That's what this looks like.

Looks? But does it play better?

do you have DLCs? i always see over 2k people online according to steam but never see them in game and think it might be because i dont own any DLC

these fuckin teens who are disliking this video are mad that activision didn't bend them over and fuck their ass hole twice for TWO rehashes instead of packaging the cod 4 rehash into its own separate game

>implying youtube dislikes mean anything

There's a Killstreak that is one of the space harriers.
then there is another killstreak that takes up the same slot that is the anti-space harrier.
Its usable in select maps.

they aren't selling the cod 4 remaster separately you have to buy one of the special editions to get it and the lowest price for it is 80 bucks
also investors dont give a shit they and activision know people will still buy it the trailer not being liked is not even a concern for them
