A COD that is received positively is unstoppable.

True, Infinite warfare got massive backlash due to the fremium multiplayer pay2win loot boxes, where you got advantages in multiplayer by throwing money at Activision.
It turned off allot of people, for BO3 gamers had already bought the game before the pay2win was slipped in, for COD Infinite warfare it was clear from day 1.
My COD clan of 20 disbanded because of the pay2win shit and dispersed to other shooters..
I think COD will sell the best but that's not a massive surprise. Infinite Warfare was hated on more than any game I can remember and still it was the highest selling game of 2016.
Quality wise it's a toss up between Destiny 2 and Star Wars. If we see a step up similar to Titanfall 1 > 2 then I think Battlefront will be amazing.

I'm not planning on playing any of these games but if I had to bet, I'd say CoD is going to be the bigger phenomenon. That series is primed for a comeback and CoD on its worst day still vastly outsells any Dice FPS. Destiny 2 is kind of a wildcard though.

Not in the opposite options neither the same genre

Destiny 2 by far

Like I said I predict Destiny will take it in the end, but if that beta goes well and the hype for BF1 carries over in the face of the futuristic shooters people are tired of WW2 will be big.
Battlefield 1 has them hyped though. WW2 is new to them for the exact same reasons you say it might not do well. They've never played it.

Pretty much
Yep everything is coming up Destiny 2.
This. It's my most anticipated "time sink" game at the moment.

It'll be COD, not that I necessarily agree though.

I guess Destiny will be the best quality wise, also the one with the most media coverage of the three.
Saleswise CoD will probably beat everything this year.
Battlefront 2 will come in third in everything, but will probably be good and do respectable numbers in it's own right.
Close call, all three will be winners.

Can’t stump the diablos
Yup. Nothing stands a chance.
I don't think people understand how hard PC players have been fiending for this one. It's going to take over twitch and snowball.

With paid dlc right? Battlefront 2 with free DLC's no season pass would win content
Also quality debatable
since no one is saying it, I will go in the non-obvious underdog - Destiny 2. /s
IN my mind this is like asking which color is redder: red, blue or green.
My metric is, myself and a lot of people I know don't care for MP or FPS...and still sunk a metric f tonne of hours into it. I met the greatest group of gaming people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing and I had a blast...even if a lot of the time, it was spent on coms, bombing around the world bitching about Destiny
It was abusive and repetitive and grindy and hollowed out and mostly a blast. I loved it. I quit playing because IRL>URL. I hope they nail it for D2 and I am waiting for reviews to check out it.

Call of Duty still sells higher than either of those by quite a lot, so it'll be WWII. After that I'd say probably Destiny given how big the first game was (While Battlefront 1 did sell a lot, I'm not sure how big of a following that game had after the first few months - but it is a Star Wars property so who could say).
