    @AnxsighetyX @BringBackBanjoK Don't underestimate the Fortnite/GTA/COD/Fifa/Madden casual players which will go to the most available console. But yeah, for them they'll still have trouble making them upgrade if it's really expensive.

    One hacker turning Black Ops 2 into a progression graveyard is the kind of failure old games die from now. Not low player count. Not bad memories. Neglect. Players on PS4/PS5 are getting shoved into a bugged “Prestige 16” state, loadouts altered, lobbies broken, stats reportedly reset. That’s not trash talk chaos. That’s one exploit with enough access to make a classic feel radioactive. And it’s a good reminder that ports don’t preserve games by existing. They preserve games by being maintained. Selling a legacy COD back to people without protecting basic progression is how you turn nostalgia into a griefing machine. A game doesn’t always need a sequel to die. Sometimes it just needs one bored idiot and no one guarding the door.

    @R7PTORBF Ok, but why? What is it about slide cancels or chained bhops that make them a problem? Is it a thematic thing, balancing? What is it about Battlefield that informs the devs how to design the basic movement mechanics? My position is that Battlefield's tone and authenticity are what determine that line. This is what separates BF from COD, despite both being arcade games. Authenticity for movement means to present things that do actually happen in reality, but just in faster, "gameified" versions that are fun and not too realistic. Despite that, it still is designed to give you the "appearance of realism" so you get the balance of the immersion while still being fun. That's the important piece. For example, the combat roll itself is authentic. I don't see complaining about it ever. It intuitively seems plausible to the average person that a person (could) jump from a first story window, land, and roll to not get as hurt. It's what you'd do in parkour. If a real soldier did this, they'd likely get hurt, but like I said, it's at least plausible to the brain. It's also naturalistic and readable which helps the natural game balance. A slide-jump, on the other hand, is where I would say it can start to CROSS the line. That's why you see many players annoyed when they see it. It's not a "natural" movement that happens anywhere apart from maybe the Haunt Sliders, and even those guys sliding on all fours can't get more than like a foot off the ground from their knees. To the average person, it comes off as uncanny and strange when someone is able to jump out of a slide with such height and forward momentum from their knees. The slide-jump lowkey in BFV both in height and distance, so nobody really complained about it. BF6 lets you launch yourself into rooms and around corners with it. It regularly happens in CQC gameplay to the point where it's almost the meta and the first option aggressive players use. It's an example of stretching the imagination too far for most people where the believablity starts to fall off and where it becomes annoying and frustrating. It's also not readable really, you wouldn't expect any person to be able to do that, even in a gameified sense. I do it all the time to compete against others doing it to me, but I certainly don't like it. Authenticity setting the "line" makes even more sense when you see the designed penalties DICE have put in place over the years that seem to serve this ideal, in addition to developer comments over the years stating it. All of this is why I'm against various movement actions that don't fit that standard, like slide jumping or accurate jump shotting. There can be exceptions, but they have to justify themselves by being so fun that it can ignore the rule, and it can't introduce big balance issues either, because that isn't fun either. Does that make sense? I'd really like to know what you think determines the line, if not authenticity and tone, which I think makes the most logical sense

    Update: I’m going to be honest here for my whole community for those that care. I am fat and I am not happy with my body. Unlike some, I am actually doing things about it, unfortunately my body is rejecting the medical solutions right now. That’s the real reason why i haven’t streamed. Last week, I had a very close call that sent me to the ER due to high blood pressure and cholesterol. My doctors are hard at work to identify and resolve that issue. I trust them. Which is why I stopped playing cod for a bit to reduce my blood pressure. So yeah, I’m doing my part. The doctors are doing theirs. It’s now a waiting game and testing game to come up with a resolution. I’m not asking for anything as you all know. However, I now have to make a change with my focus with content and start monetizing my content. Solely due to the medical bills I will have to pay off. Since I am doing that, I will try to put out even better content and be more organized and more consistent.

    @DrHachi3 @Irves_Watch You ******* idiot, the radition wil contaminate the air, and wind will carry the affects all the way to Israel as well. Debris will fix with the cloud system, and black rain will pour all over the place. Cesium-137 and Iodine-131 will destroy crops in Israel. Real life isn't COD.

    @CODUpdates Are you guys ever going to fix the failed Attestation Status? You've told thousands of people that the devs are aware but WE HAVE NOT SEEN ONE note that you guys are aware! Sick and tired of not being able to play a game I PAID FOR. Fix it. #cod #fyp #lame

    @NEKODEMON21 @HillKeigan05 @Simmo Again, totaly understand that. i remember the ps3 days of MW2,3, Bo2 when the hacking started. I will never not be anoyed by people that do stuff like that. But the ports are the best thing that happened to CoD since years if you ask me. And nor hell or highwater will stop me from enjoying this game again. I see this as a tempoary bump in the road. Activision is under immense pressure to fix this. It is in their own interrest to do so. If they don´t this will damage them even further in the long run. MW4 will flop, i am sure. First of all they lost me with bo7 already, but when i saw the trailer with the underbarrel rpg i immediatly decided that this year will be different for me. And then there are the ports. they are a huge success. it shows them what people really want. for me the pick 10 loadout has always been the best. the maps? there is nearly no map that i don´t want to play in Bo2. it is the perfect game and it is in their interest to actually fix it, or the backlash will be huge. I mean all eyes are on them if even huge streamers are hit with it. they have to C&D his ***, even better would be to get him raided and collect the dev kit. remember what they did to the kid that leaked the GTA6 stuff.

    @CallofDuty Y’all do realize being radio silent on the current situation regarding BO7 and BO2 is impacting the hype in MW4, right? People aren’t going to just buy the next one if you can’t even fix your current game. That’s exactly why BO7 sales numbers were also low

    @ATVIAssist If your developers can’t fix constant ping spikes and desync even when players have stable internet, then what exactly are you doing? We spend real money on this game, yet every update brings the same issues. Stop pushing cosmetics and start fixing servers

    @g3ckos if a game has crossplay it should be balanced around inputs that are used commonly if cod had like 99% controller players then it wouldn't really be an issue and he'd be right but it's just a horrible experience for any mnk player and it's horrible for any good controller player

    @TheDavidVinc Well see. Theres always dumb whales , CoD, Fortnite and Madden players who will buy it. The problem is also alot of content creators who will advocate the ps6 due to livelyhood. Thats what worries me. They should be on our side
