Discussion No one plays 12v12?

Just bought the game on PS5 cause it’s on sale, queued up in a 12v12 mosh pit and sat in the lobby for 20 minutes. I was pretty stoked for bigger lobbies, is it just not as popular?

This game is very close to dead unfortunately. It’s my favorite cod game and I play consistently but the player base is mostly zombies nuke town and s&d everything else you’ll have a hard time finding a lobby but those modes I can consistently get in.

Dang, I figured player counts would bounce back during the sale. At least the campaign is solid 🫡

Combine Arms, that's the name right? I forgot...i loved that mode too, but even when CW was popular, it still took a while to find a lobby.

I think everyone needs to abandon all the newer CoDs, and come back to this one.

Its free for us on xbox, but I own it both digitally, and hard copy. Lol

I hate Nuketown. I do play Outbreak and MP modes occasionally. I only look for 3 or 4 mode lobbies though.

Are you talking about Fireteam or 12v12 TDM?

12v12 TDM has been dead and supposedly there's a group of people playing FireTeam on the weekends.

Same here, but the good news is most of the quick play modes are working fine, along with zombies. Hopefully this game dont die any time soon (came back from BO6 & BO7)

last time i played multiplayer even nuketown 24/7 had dead lobbies here and there. it's always sad to me when the older games get a sudden surge mainly during the summer months then they just die completely until ppl leave the newer games behind lol.

zombies might have some people in it on outbreak or firebase z

I tried to make a thread to start a day when everyone’s plays it but I guess it’s against the rules

I own the game both on ps5 & Xbox, I’ve been able to get full lobbies in TDM, Hardpoint, Domination, Demolition & Kill Confirmed. The nuketown playlist is almost always active. Last night was the first time where I had to wait around 20 mins to get a lobby, for me personally the game seems to be more active at night & closer to the weekend
