Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare review
It is however worth noting that behind Federation Internationale de Football Association 17, Infinite Warfare has been this year’s biggest launch-a feat all the more impressive given the recent release of genre similars Battlefield 1 and Titanfall 2.
According to Gfk Chart-Track, while Infinite Warfare managed to top the sales chart in its first week of release in the United Kingdom, the sales were down a whopping 48.4% compared to last year’s Black Ops 3 launch.
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare might have just released, but that doesn’t mean that it can’t get a insane discount. The result: a screenshot showing a player waiting in a standard game lobby with just one other player, also unlucky enough to have purchased the Windows Store version.
This puts it behind such heavy-hitting games as PAYDAY 2, Dead By Daylight & Euro Truck Simulator 2, all of which both have more current players and more peak players. According to GFK, sales of the game were down 48.4% during launch week when compared to the last entry in the series; Call of Duty: Black Ops 3.
It is no brainer that the reason for this refund are complaints from Windows 10 gamers that “Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare” using Windows servers lack competitive gameplay since there is limited number of players. You most likely have come across some of them playing Battlefield 1 or the latest Call of Duty. It turns out that Infinite Warfare players on Windows can not connect to those on Steam, thus effectively cutting them off from the larger Call of Duty community.
While Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare received positive reviews, it seems that its popularity at launch has been lower than expected.
The game series focuses on console gaming traditionally with PC versions more of an afterthought. Infinite Warfare displaces Battlefield 1 at the top of the chart, while Titanfall 2 drops from fourth to fifth.
