    @Puertorock77_ It is impressive the way you people manufacture crisis out of a non issue. By your logic, COD won’t be a top seller this year either. GTA 6 will also be a flop. Nobody gave two ***** when it was EA, Take Two & Nintendo but with Xbox it means the sky is falling.

    After the painful process of redeeming the discord nitro key for CoD MW4 early access beta, I launch the game and it says "you do not meet the requirements to play the beta" It says I need a BIOS update in order to play but I am on the latest BIOS from this year, my motherboard is an Asus Strix B550-F Gaming WiFi II. Activision please fix your ****. This is actually insane. I am also on Windows 11 with all updates. TPM 2.0 and Secure boot are both turned on and the beta refuses to work. #MW4Beta #EarlyAccess

    @CallofDuty No it's not because it's broken on Xbox and no one can get past checking for updates

    @CallofDuty @Attach You got a lot of visual bug in this with pixelating lighting when moving and rendering issues even in the menus. You got broken animations and weird D-sync issues that don’t represent what’s happening in game properly. The game also feels sluggish with inputs.

    @CallofDuty Haven’t played cod in over 2 years and decided to give the beta a go. Error after error and can’t even get to the main menu. Great first impression

    @dyzyuno I stopped playing CoD a year ago, so I don't have a dog in this fight, but I honestly don't blame Acti for making the same game every year because CoD players keep buying them LOL. It's not an Activision problem, it's a CoD player base problem. Which is one reason why I'm not part of it anymore.

    BIG PROBLEM FOR MW4 that has already became apparent. 2nd Game on I was 19-0, was frying the lobby, people kept dropping the same exact guns as me... I'd walk over their bodies to get ammo and the game was just not refilling my stocks with their dropped guns. @CallofDuty
