  @br3a1d @DaDiverhaha @KARNAGEclan It does matter... because the stores aren't the problem with cod lol. The biggest problem with cod for the past 6 years has been warzone being a cancer to the franchise that limits art style and creative liberty because it has to be able to integrate with warzone.

  @CallofDuty Fix the input lag on black ops 1 and 2 and I'll reinstall on ps5 again, until then unfortunately I just can't play them as it hurts my eyes going from a 120fps game to a game which tries 60fps but has input lag lol, my TV supports everything on ps5 pro and it's still there

  @GSNeverMind Yup. Apparently my windows registry was missing the TBS service which is the base for TPM so when cod tried to generate the AIK info it just failed. Cod didn’t know what to say so it defaulted to Bios Update. Activision was zero help. They just closed my ticket w/o responding

  @Ecthelion_OTF @EndersFPS Previous titles had flares and ECM because of the 2 types of missles fired at you Watering down the game to be more like CoD instead of slightly more realistic has caused your issue

  @CallofDuty Finally yall are starting to realize that all along it was Covid that made everyone think that sbmm was working when it was introduced at the same time period. Now a few years later yall understand that that the pre 2019 sbmm wasn’t the issue. Now imagine if yall never changed it

  @CallofDuty Maybe you should fix the issue with split screen multiplayer… focus on fixing the fundamentals. Outrageous it’s taken over a month for you to fix.

  Snook (@SnookyPT) reported 18 minutes ago

  @c0nHD For cod it's recommended 4k as 8k can cause stuttering. But based on your setup you shouldn't have this issue

  Westbrook (@___Westbrook___) reported 22 minutes ago

  @Albertos008Gr @IanNedog @sourceeeezz They were yearly releases back then too... The problem isn't yearly releases the problem is them making the games all on the same exact engine with similar art style because they have to, to port all that **** to warzone. Blame warzone for existing. THAT is what makes cod worse.

  @TheXclusiveAce @CallofDuty There’s gotta be an issue or some kind of mistake occurring. Tons of complaints about this popping up everywhere!!

  @Painreliefdrgs reverting back to a MM type that they already know works and is currently being used in the ports is a high maintenance task? How so? If these games were developed by indie devs or if they were free to play I could understand it *slightly* but these are paying customers buy a product from a AAA franchise with a publishing company worth billions of dollars. Not to mention they’re the ones that went on about how COD would now be a “live service model” meaning updates, listening to and addressing feedback, and making sure the games last over time.

  @MoiDawg The truth is if you come into this game trying to play it like any other shooter you will be WASHED. This isn’t CoD or Destiny so you can’t treat it that way and that’s the problem new players have. Not all shooters are the same and told us this from the announcement

  @Speedkicks Same man as a kid that only played COD in ps3 and only tried single player games on ps4 gen and onward I thought SP games were not for me, until I got the switch and then pc and started emulating old games then i realised that the problem is in the new games they are just ***

  If you run Task Manager and search for Call of Duty, a linked service task pops up. While on the game load update screen, it starts the second download for me now, at least; I'm not getting full download speed, but something is happening. The first update was 54 GB for some reason. Thought the update would only be 13 GB or so. @CallofDutyCM @CallofDuty

  @CODUpdates Are you going to make a decent Call of Duty game? Are you going to fix Black Ops 2 or Black Ops 1, which are terrible? They're ancient and you can't even release them properly at launch. You're failures and sooner or later it will catch up with you... @CallofDuty

  @JohnJonBovie @Dexerto They do work and are effective. CSGO is one of the biggest E-Sports and works flawlessly on Linuxa and has less of a hacking problem than COD. Devs are just too lazy to give up the ease of kernel level solutions

  @keennway @stealer82 @BattlefieldInte The problem is that bf6 has COD ttk and the objectives hold little to no strategic value like older bf games.. like wake island in bf43, you got the airstrip objective and you'd get airstrikes and other objectives had well placed AA guns and vehicles that kept objectives busy.. i love this map but most objectives are ghost towns and sitting around waiting for 1-2 people to come try to take an objective is a slog.. and if you decide to run through the empty space to the next objective you get insta killed by a camper before even having time to react or determine where they are. On smaller maps getting insta killed doesn't feel so bad.. but running by foot across a huge area to get insta killed by an smg at 80m by a guy camping in a bush just feels terrible. And ive never liked COD.. it's a children's game like fortnite imho.

  @ATotalDork They way cod is built, its entire philosophy of being a positive feedback loop and rewarding good players with killstreaks, it will always have either a “top down” problem where good players quit bc of sbmm or a “bottom up” where bad players leave without it.

  @Davidplaysx89 @rickOShea1234 You might actually need to go seek professional help... Never been hard stuck, my game library just consists of more than CoD you retard. I've hit Crim in WZ and MP. You still haven't answered if you could do it without using a broken work around for ***** lobbies lol Keep crying
