    Says the company that overcharges certain regions for cod points, puts way too much effort into some trailer for a collab but can't fix bugs and can't stop people cheating in this game. So actually, it might be YOU 🫵😬

    ... because I knew that Adeboye's enemies were documenting their private lives & their stewardship of COD. The new fool arrived & started Calling me names,I don't even greet him. So when his problems starts, they can't call my name. (Pastors that went to England to find info)

    so many of my problems with modern CoD would be immediately solved if they’d stop cramming 12 people on a map clearly designed for 1v1s

    GameStop has closed over 5,000 stores globally over the past decade alone. At its peak, the retailer operated more than 7,500 locations worldwide, but massive shifts to digital game downloads and e-commerce forced a rapid shrinking of its physical footprint. The numbers are not skewed. People are just not leaving the house to buy games anymore. Sure a $10 physical Triple A game looks nice on Amazon and second hand market. Now ask yourself why are these physical discs are so cheap? They're leftovers. And some of these shots are carefully selected. They're also already on Gamepass and PS5 Plus. Watching GameStop and other retailers, closing tens of thousands brick and mortar stores over the past decade proves a very important point. Remember the 360 and PS3 era? I remember. I remember mofos camping out with tents in front of a game stop for a Halo or CoD game. It was an awesome era... Almost 2 decades ago. The numbers are not skewed. People stop going out to buy physical games at launch. Just like they stopped going out to buy a new music album or a DVD at blockbuster. Of course there are still people that go out of their way to buy a music album or a Blu ray movie. But where are the billions? Spotify, Netflix, streaming services. It's a sad thing to admit but most gamers are addicted to ps plus, gamepass and even gamepass on PC. It's just so damn convenient to have them even when we don't take advantage if the service every month. I also see these comparison screenshots with a physical game on Amazon vs a digital game price differences. They are not wrong. Those shots are not fake. But let's not pretend Xbox store and PS store doesn't have mega deals every month on games. Steam has awesome deals too. And there are website that sell digital codes for PS5, Xbox and Steam for stupid prices... Like as low $3 for a triple A game. I'm not gonna quote the websites as I'm not doing free sponsor spots, but a simple google search will take you to where u wanna be. I'm not defending the death of physical games. And I'm not defending Sony for a second for their decision. I think it's really sad what's happening to the die hard physical gamers collector. But hey... The numbers are not skewed... The data shows it..... The trail of money shows it. Physical stores literally shutting down year over year. GameStop has been pivoting for the past 8 years or so to selling more gaming merch and collectibles rather than selling physical games. Those shelves became smaller and smaller every year. That's why they made a statement saying " Sony ending physical games production doesn't affect us at all".. ofc it doesn't affect them... Nobody goes to games stop to buy physical games. C'mon... We used to have massive long shelves, sometimes multiple rows of just Xbox , PlayStation, Nintendo physical games in various supermarkets and malls. those shelves have shrunk to microscope levels year over year.

    @Activision @CallofDuty been waiting for this false failed attestation crap to get fixed. Starting to think Activision has teamed with Sony and Microsoft to NOT fix this issue and force people to play on consoles with all that's going on.

  • Bennett0404

    @jacobnewtron MW19 was ***. It introduced all the major problems CoD currently has. People just hold it so high because of warzone and the fact it released during COVID so that all people did was play that because they couldn’t do anything else.

  • Bennett0404
    Michael Bennett (@Bennett0404) reported

    @DomainGhost MW 2019 literally introduced all the problem that are bad with CoD currently. It’s only viewed as highly as it is because of warzone and the fact it was released during COVID so everyone was staying inside playing and couldn’t do anything else.

  • MarcKingGrant
    I GOT HACKED NOW I'M BACK MarcKingGrant (18+) (@MarcKingGrant) reported

    @PRlCESOAP and safe. Because a COD Ghosts reboot will absolutely lean on Simon Riley as a crutch. When a big problem with COD Ghosts in the first place was because they didn't lean into the masked Ghosts aspect (with the characters being written empty despite Ghost having a backstory comic)

    @konstrainn @TriggerGiggles @InfinityWard I mean they did the same **** back in mw2 and this game has the same sounds and looks from mw2 it’s just infinity **** back at it again and gotta wait for sledgehammer to fix their mistakes since they don’t learn

    @SeanCasGamer @TheeGodric It’s like with the AI takeover people really want their jobs to matter so they clock in to fix problems they created and market it as monumental leap forward for cod.

  • ApeB2Official
    Ape B. (@ApeB2Official) reported

    @florstie No, because the problem is the players. They have horrible match strategies or none at all! It's a video game about an infinite number of mutants getting into an endless brawl. There are too many unique characters to believe you can just run in like CoD.

  • PhierceFPS
    PHIERCE (@PhierceFPS) reported

    @jason_anrico Did I say it was in EVERY COD since Ghosts? No. I said it has been in COD since Ghosts... because it has... it was the first to feature the mechanic. Also, skill issue.

    @itsmewitz @TheTacticalBrit @InfinityWard No, why ******** would we praise a studio for fixing a problem they reintroduced that was already fixed 3 years ago? In what world do you feel smart for defending that.

    @InfinityWard it’s the same psychological warfare tactics every year. Make something intentionally broken and obviously annoying - that should’ve already been known by your studio. And then use that to say: “LOOK WE’RE LISTENING, HERES A QUICK FIX ” Manipulation 101.

    @hawkeye1326 @charlieINTEL You really are just a bluecheck mark AW. For saying dedicated server are not better than play against a guy on a ******* Modem 56k with lag, host switch middle of the game, people leaving the game when they loose instead of accepting that. And FIND ME the EXACT NUMBER of people actually play BO2 and BO1 on PS5 vs ALL PLATFORM COD BO7 than ?

    Gabriel Castro Morais (@gcm0rais) reported

    @mlrk3y @WinC_Gaming IW9 isn't based on any ID tech legacy code. They completely rebuilt the engine to mitigate security issues related to the ID Tech 3 engine. The only COD released after that had even an ounce of ID tech 3 code was BOCW.

    @TheGhostOfHope COD looking the same never used to be an issue when the game is good. What these people should be saying is "It looks the same as the last few games I've hated"

  • Jay_Jay9517
    jay (@Jay_Jay9517) reported

    @TheGhostOfHope Biggest problem for this is Cod shouldn't be a yearly release anymore , that era has ran it's course. They should be releasing games every other year and alot of the hype would return along with more innovative ideas from the devs
