The team of one of the most bestselling first-person-shooter game, "Call of Duty," is said to receive bashes coming from the game's avid fans. This is because fans dislike the idea that their favorite game franchise is headed to continue its futuristic direction.
It was the rumored move of the "Call of Duty" team to develop the game under more science-fiction elements that sparked the flood of dislike coming from "COD" supporters. In fact, a thread in NeoGAF, specifically the post of username "shinobi602," has exposed the plans of the "COD" team that the upcoming "Call of Duty" 2016 is going to be set in the far future containing battles in space. With that said, fans have unleashed their rage on the same thread, giving comments of severe disappointment.
It is also reported that the fans of the popular game franchise continued to express their disappointment in twitter using the hashtags #BringBackCOD and #MakeCODGreatAgain, as what reported by Gaming Bolt.
The number of people joining the twitter campaign is getting larger. They have the same thing to say to the game's developer, and that is to bring back "Call of Duty" to its roots rather than insisting to go further in the science fiction way. Reports are also telling that various fans shouted out their protest on the present features of the series namely the blackmarket and supply drops.
On the other note, it could still not be justified whether the twitter campaign of the fans against the futuristic "Call of Duty" 2016 has made an effect or changed the upcoming game. It is because the COD team has not yet provided any details regarding the controversial game.
Perhaps, fans would know more about "Call of Duty" 2016 in a couple of days during the investors' event on May 5 which Activision will be present, cites Videogamer. However, if Activision would be quite about it on May 5, then the next possible date could be June where in the Electronic Entertainment Expo will kick in involving the unveiling of various games which could include the controversial "Call of Duty" 2016. This could be the perfect time to know whether the twitter campaign was effective.
