I have logged in over the past week every night between 5pm EST and 10pm EST and I personally have never seen more than 6k players, even the weekends are barely breaking 10k players. If this isn't a hint to IW on how poorly made this game is then I don't know what is. IW got my $ for this game but I will not be purchasing any DLCs or season passes or anything for this game and I will never purchase another IW title ever.
We were told Dedicated servers would be implemented, and that was a flat out lie. We were assured there would be plenty of ANTI-HACK and bans for those who do hack in Ghosts, another flat out lie. Sure they are working on spawn improvements, gun changes etc but when you ignore the most basic of necessities for an online game such as servers and anti-cheat you are clearly not listening to your player base.
I hope IW can learn from this disaster of a game, but in reality I know that the big wigs at the top of IW and activision are only concerned about one thing, $$$$$$ and as long as they get the game sales at release they are content. It's sad that PC gaming has become a trend of promise the world deliver nothing and just take consumers money and run.
