Then there are games for that. There are plenty of games that can tell a story and just do that. But the games I mentioned are probably the most played multiplayer FPS games on the console market. There is no reason for a campaign. In fact, I would be okay if they poured more content onto the disc as purely MP, then let you DL a campaign for $10 if you really wanted to.

The Division is inspired by Operation Dark Winter and Directive 51, real-world events which "revealed how vulnerable we've become"; society has become "fragile" and "complex". In the game, a disease that spreads on Black Friday causes the United States to collapse in 5 days.[2] The player is part of an unconfirmed group that was established to combat the threat and do whatever it takes to "save what remains" in a massive multiplayer online situation, putting them against friends, AI and other players.

I think you could replace campaigns with something like COD did with the COOP missions. Seems like it would be a lot less burdening on the developers, but you could still get a sense of story as context for the MP.

I agree that for the latest military FPSs, the campaigns seem very "tacked on" and IMO aren't necessary.
