  @InfinityWard And tweaking the recoil, id say its a good idea to improve reload times as well, reducing the pain of constantly being hounded down after every engagement because of spawns or "lobby balancing" Even fixing these glaring issues for weapons, server quality needs to be addressed.

  @charlieINTEL I’ve bought every single cod since cod 4: modern warfare, but I won’t be buying this one (I have finally broken the curse)

  @XeoMafia @Senninsage reduction, but that came at the expense of losing CoD out of the service. Xbox gamers today have less 1st party content coming to them in the future under Asha And all Xbox hardcore can claim is we get console exclusives which we had under Phil

  @blackfox87fps But again these problems are one sided because not everyone experiences the same game just like the people that want stronger aim assist so the game can aim for them and faster ttk to kill in 2 bullets and feel like they are good at cod to then get killed and say cheater lol

  @InfinityWard @CallofDuty Fix visibility, fix warzone visibility, you CAN NOT SEE ANYONE, bodies are TOO small and basically invisible at distance. Smoke off of guns makes it hard to see. SBMM. Bullet reg. The warzone map is way too dark, so much needs to be fixed.

  @InfinityWard Yeah, the only issue you still haven’t mentioned which is the biggest issue with the game and gonna cause a lot of people not to buy it sbmm. You’ve dodged answering about it for 2 weeks. There is a place for it called ranked play not in pubs

  @DRIZZYCDL @femijohnsn @CallofDuty Well the beta ended for MW4. So it's Warzone having issues.

  @ExoGhost the problem is yearly releases. they need to make one game & continuously update it with new content / features. **** would be so much more popular & wouldn’t feel like we’re hitting the reset button every 12 months. first cod i’m not buying 🫤

  @PurpleColonelSP All of a sudden clicking L3 to sprint is an issue when CoD, Battlefield and literally almost every single ******* game in the world uses that same button. You guys just wanna find **** to cry about atp

  @tminnzy Playing black ops 2 again was the most sweaty experience that I’ve had on cod for a long long time. It was not like this when it originally came out. SBMM is not the problem. There’s just so many more good players.

  @akizuwz @InfinityWard Movement isn't the problem. The egregious amounts of rotational tracking aimbot assist is. You wouldn't hit half of those shots if you had aim assist off.

  also one of my 2xp code on the monster website seem to have been generated incorrectly making it unusable on the cod redeem website (I think the error is it generating with 3 chars before the first - instead of 4)

  @InfinityWard Warzone is borderline unplayable on Switch 2. Multiplayer is perfectly fine for the system. But Warzone is still a massive issue from my many hours of testing. Leaving the PS4 behind in a year where GTA is competing for your customers, was a massive mistake.

  @InfinityWard I know y'all may not have much say over this, but... remove SBMM, and outside of that, make the ttk a bit faster so it's more IW-esque, just a little bit faster, and fix the servers and netcode, cuz the beta was super inconsistent, especially weekend 2. also, weapon balancing.

  @LAVibez384897 @InfinityWard Go play hard core bud. If you don't have the gun skill to compete with a marginally slower ttk, that's a you problem.

  I think its time we have this conversation because this has gone on long enough and the scene is TRYING to get more serious. If Warzone ever wants to become a proper E-sport on the biggest stage and keep growing we gotta start addressing issues in these scrims/ tourneys. We have to wait 30+ minutes between games because: - players take forever to join - randoms can join the lobbies and the admins have no way of pausing the lobby/ kick them effectively - the lobbies STILL crash after being up too long.+ Not to mention the sheer number of game crashes and a rejoin feature that only works half of the time. These wait times are AWFUL for players and viewers alike. Viewership tanks and players get iced/ tired (especially EU players/ viewers). Additionally we STILL don't have custom match rulesets where we can ban items that NOBODY wants in the tourneys. All of these things are terrible for the scene and advertises/ tourney organizers looking to get involved with Warzone are no doubt put off by it. The game and the comp scene can be so great if an ounce of effort is put in. There is so much money already being pumped into it, so why not invest in the infrastructure to make it orders of magnitude better to both watch and play. @ATVI_AB @CallofDuty

  @ModernWarzone The good part is. He is a known pro so will be get unbanned by activision. The bad part is. If its an unknown legit good gamer they are in a problem because noone will believe them and stay perma (hardware) banned. Better stay away from cod if this is true and you are good

  @charlieINTEL Let me say: this game is clunky, unresponsive, aiming away during movement is a nightmare, aim assist more broken than ever, lot of visibility issues, bad performance, worse graphics than MW19, netcode issues. Same mistakes of every COD release/Beta. Beside of that, its good.

  My take on MW4 beta after a day and 10 hours of gameplay @Activision @InfinityWard : First off , I wasn’t expecting this. The game is really enjoyable. Movement feels great, gunplay is fluid and fast, and quickscoping feels incredibly satisfying. That said, there are a few things I’d REALLY love to see changed before release : - SBMM We gotta remain realistic: SBMM is here to stay. I’m fine with that. But the current version of it is WAY too strict. SBMM should be loosened by a lot. A less strict system would still protect newer players while giving everyone more variety in their matches. Right now, it feels like every game is a CDL lobby. - TTK The TTK itself is fine to me. I don’t think we need to drastically increase or decrease it. The REAL problem is how damage is distributed across the body. Currently, outside of headshots, basically everything from your toes to your torso does the same damage. That’s the part I’d change. I’d love to see separate damage multipliers for: • Head • Torso • Legs This would reward players for actually having good aim while keeping the overall TTK in a healthy place. Right now, hitting someone in the toes vs. the chest doesn’t give you enough of a reason to prioritize better shots. - Aim Assist Aim assist is too sticky right now. I’m not saying it needs to disappear. Controller players should absolutely have aim assist. But it needs to be less aggressive and less sticky. Good controller players will still be good without aim assist basically locking onto every movement. - High Zoom Scopes There’s an issue with scopes above 4x that needs to be fixed. The reticle/scope aren't properly centered, which can make your aim feel inconsistent when using higher magnification optics. This has been an issue in previous CODs too, and it was eventually fixed. - Maps The maps are not bad , but they are all meh. Let's keep our fingers crossed that the maps we haven't been able to test will be good when the game is officially released. Overall, I’m genuinely surprised by how much I enjoyed this beta , its not perfect, but @InfinityWard seems to be listening a lot, there was a major difference between the first and second weekend. There’s a promising game here.

  New CoD anti cheat system now reacts to hardware that’s connected to your system. Getting mass reported is still an issue but at most you will get shadowbanned and temp ban. FormaL was def cheating which is why he got banned MID game 🧐

  @MattCoze Generic. It doesn’t feel special anymore at all. We need to disconnect CoDs from Warzone. Let Studios develop their own engines again and just care about story zombies and multiplayer without the restriction of „it has to fit with Warzone.“ let them make their perfect CoD.

  Sowle ⁴⁴ (@GuySowle) reported 55 minutes ago

  @the_clay_bird @Apkalluu @ItsAdrin The problem with this is that you don’t understand how it works, not us. The system used in CoD is not designed around making fair matches, but about maximising player retention. It will happily give out pity matches or much harder matches if it increases engagement

  🇺🇸 Guru Of Syrinx 🇺🇸 (@GuruOfSyrinx) reported 56 minutes ago

  @Foreverstrrbhq @paloma_datgirl Are you kidding me? It does have value because unlike Digital there is a word called Scarcity. (Monetary gain) Here is a legitimate example: Go on Xbox/PS store. How much is COD Black Ops 1? Its $40. Would I rather "purchase" (rent) the game digitally for that amount, or purchase it physically for $8? Mind you, if I don't want that game anymore I can always sell it and at least get some money back whereas digital is ZERO refunds after specific hours played or days that go by. Have you ever wondered why Physical copies dont cost as much as the digital, even though both are ported to the same server? This is the problem. BO1 has so many physical copies made in the world and not enough demand that the price of the game will stay around the $10 range. If more copies are sold, destroyed, or are not in market anymore the demand can go up and thus, price. If nobody wants to buy a physical copy it will stay the same. So the point you are trying to make is completely false. anything physical can and will increase in value as long as demand is up and the condition/rarity of the product is applicable. This applies to almost everything considered a physical product. Digital will simply convince you that you have to purchase a product for a fixed price, because that is the only way to buy said product, without being able to buy it via resale or cheap. And no. Digital games going on sale isnt a deal, its offering you to rent a game until they say so for a cheaper cost. Thats all.

  @JoeViller @BattlefieldInte I can switch between any other battlefield and have no issue. This game doesn’t move like the others. If I want to play COD I go on there this isn’t COD.

  @Jchillz4o4 @InfinityWard @Activision This whole clip is more about the gun then the AA whoever at IW thought that gun was a good idea is dumb and should be fired tbh but aim assist is definitely broken
