Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 on PC Receiving Special Attention
Activision wants to change this though, with this years installment, Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. In addition to capitalizing on additional attention for being apart of the series' most popular sub-brand (Black Ops), Activision is giving the game's PC version a bit more love than it has in the past for other PC versions.
News of the change in approach comes from Activision Bliizard CEO Coddy Johnson, who during a recent Activision earnings call, expressed the publisher's desire to ensure Black Ops 4 isn't just a smash hit on consoles, but on every platform, including the ol' PC.
To this point, Johnson reveals that it has “invested significant dedicated resources and design time" to the PC version in order to make sure it has every chance to perform well on the platform. He adds, “We want to make sure we can deliver a great PC game to serve that community.”
What exactly is meant by “significant dedicated resources and design time,” isn't quite clear. It seems to imply that the publisher is dishing out more than usual to make the PC version. But other than more funding and more development time, it's not evident how this will play out with the final product.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 is poised to release on October 12, 2018. A reveal event, featuring a livestream pack full of new information, is slated for May 17th. Maybe we will find out more about the game's PC version then.

It sucks because I play COD on PC and every release its been dead. From Bo2 to Bo3. Every COD in between is dead. It's weird because MW has the most players ever on. And W@W is also like that.

It's never good enough for PC players. COD developers have always done a shoddy job at their PC versions of the game; whether it is through poor performance in general, terrible PC-specific options such as FOV slider, remappable keys, etc. it is always pretty poor.
There's a far big enough choice of other games to choose from that COD really needs to step its game up.

Sorry but I don't believe it. It's the same old song and dance, say stuff that will please people then just abandon it.

Every year we hear this same thing. "Oh we care about the PC platform" - COD Devs for year
Come January they'll abandon the platform for good.

Nobody plays CoD on PC and not because it "has a shoddy reputation"
Didnt they say the same thing for the past few CoDs? I remember they made a big deal about supporting PC with Black Ops 1 and it still didn't sell nearly as well as it did on consoles.
