Their revenues are likely still up because they just milk the people left over even harder. They'll probably just release a new £29.99 bundle every 3-5 weeks now to mitigate any lost players. Those that just played the games and didn't spend any money (like me and most others) aren't worth nothing to them after release so it's no big loss. Two bundles that cost nothing to produce instantly covers what I would've paid for the base game and there is a staggering amount of people with their wallets out willing to pay.
Crap games, broken games, unfinished games - it doesn't mean anything to them because they always know they can recoup any lost revenue. They could sell a blank disc and still people will buy it. Fortnite is getting 6m players peak right now and the new update had 45m players because it's made to the highest technical and development standards possible. MW3 is so shambolic in comparison from an ethical and quality standpoint. I really hope Microsoft get their teeth into this brand unlike taking a backseat for profits like they did with Bethesda and really shake things up. Sack the board, remove this annual schedule and rebuild from the ground up.
I also can't believe this is in the game - lost count of how many videos I've seen users get killed by this. Visibility seems bad enough on most maps without a near-invisible skin

There's no escape from the Gaia skin.
