    @InfinityWard @charlieINTEL The game looks like mw2 before you took away slice cancel the clunkyness and how the weapon moves I bought the 100$ and I feel scammed if you don't fix it I won't give you my money again not this year people are tired of you incompetence

    @charlieINTEL Looks like any other cod. Pass I'm finished being fed the same £60 live service experience each cycle

    @BravoSixxx3 @loljogu @mphondamike They also have the same issues for the most part, some just have more problems than others but the mw games have ALL the problems I mentioned + more. For example cw didn’t take as much skill as a cod like bo2 but things that made it more skillful than MW19 were long ttk, no doors, proper mini map, ninja perk, no tac sprint, no gun smoke/crazy visual recoil, no squad spawns, better map design etc. From mw19 onwards the skillgap between all the modern cods isn’t large but the mw games have the smallest skill gap between the modern CoDs

    @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.

    Filan (@HolyLlamaJesus) reported

    @guinnessstache @ForwardLeaks That might be true for some CoD players but CoD is also coming off of a major down year and needs to win back players while GTA 6 is basically a guaranteed purchase for most people. You also keep ignoring my question, if it wasn't an issue why is every game release avoiding GTA?

    @lioniiia @charlieINTEL You say this as if IW doesn’t deserve hate they get I mean personally I believe most the problems with modern cod come from Activision but 3arc nor IW have been able to innovate or make new fun things Same recycled garbage every year

  • derousse_kye
    Kye (@derousse_kye) reported

    @HATETHEREALME They won’t fix it bc they want us to play black ops 7. I’m sorry I want to play classic cod and not movement simulator 4.

  • Cezarek_1
    Cezar (@Cezarek_1) reported

    @MistYo_ Also you're forgetting open matchmaking is "skill minimally considered" not completely removed. But any ways doesnt really matter, cod is doing **** now and they need to fix mw4 asap cause its a ******* mess rn.

    @CallofDuty FIX THE PORTS NOW WE SHOULDNT HAVE TO DEAL WITH HACKERS WHY WASNT THIS FIXED BEFORE THE COME OUT I SHOULD Have LISTENED TO BLAME TRUTH !!!!!

    Reb (@Rebtzu) reported

    There is no way this is the game that @InfinityWard has been hyping up, it has all the problems MW2 had but worse -Clunky movement -Horrendous visual clarity -low TTK I hope they are open to feedback because this **** its not it...

  • RealDonElliott
    Don Elliott (@RealDonElliott) reported

    @CallofDuty I guess it could've been a tactical insert. It was very similar to my old blinking in problems.

    Love to see that CoD kids are as tech illiterate as they were 15 years ago. Your monitor has nothing to do with the lag. it's just a ****** emulated port and requires a bunch of updates before it's considered playable. That's it.

    @TheRickYouTube @InfinityWard fix your **** before your sales call off a cliff.

    @ATVIAssist I’m having issues with my Activision account. I am shadow banned and I tweeted to get the issue resolved. Ricochet obviously doesn’t work if I got banned for absolutely no reason.

    @InfinityWard I think the depth of field needs to be less blurry on the focused item. It’s a feature that you could fix. It’s just never gets fixed with logical eye focus if I was looking down a weapon site the focal point I would be seeing would be the end site front site wouldn’t be blurry

  • iDaniboii

    @Gunmagaziine But if COD can fix it they could easily go T1 in esports cuz people would be taking it more seriously as a competitive game

    @PuK_Gaming Finally a chance to play on a phone that doesn't give me problems when I play cod 😭

  • Drth_Nihilus_

    @KatDoes3D ive been wanting volumetric smoke (or something similar at least) in cod since way before CS2 did it solely because it eliminates the whole issue of smoke being a clientside render, which is one of the worst things ever

  • lFibreOpticl
    | FibreOptic | ✪ (@lFibreOpticl) reported

    @Machinarium13 @A2ZJIRWINKO No, the reasons are the quality of the campaigns, the oversaturation of competitive shooters, the rise of COD (and higher competition in general), and a poor Xbox One image. Sprint is such a laughably small contention within diehard fans it is not a problem in the eyes of gamers

  • Nandometro
    Epsilon (@Nandometro) reported

    @DANNYonPC @Battlefield_inf @InsurgencyGame because they want the formula to evolve (into something that is not closer to cod) , dont get me wrong i followed all their mistakes over the years, the saga was getting stale before ww2, the awful movement games, they dont know what to do, the yearly releases are the problem

  • Yoozy0912
    yoozy (@Yoozy0912) reported

    @lql_00 @CallofDuty @InfinityWard This seems like an aim assist boost. MNK has to track through this sludge. Yikes... I may be waiting before I buy to see if they fix this or not.

  • Gonzalo23700589

    @trey_sakow @FortunateFL Is great on a technical level. But the problem with cod is the other stuff; bloated menus, messed up art direction with retarded skins, and full of ads pushing you to buy and buy when is a game you paid for. Talented developers held back by one of the worst publishers on earth

  • TheKingerdYT

    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

    Was last year not a big issue??? I don’t think COD players ever know what they want man

    @CallofDuty Great, it reminds me the collaboration for the GMC Hummer EV on WZ2.0. Moreover, if it's the direction, do not come back with bad developments about too much recoil, bad field of view, smoke on muzzle. Problems that previous games had fix and we have already said we don't want

    @Prickoshea1234 @TheRickYouTube Yeah I can read but I am just saying ur a ***** u can’t call out cheats U can’t even call out the bs towards cod U just follow there narrative that’s why u can’t think for ur self U are the problem in the uk weak *** men like ur self man Who can’t speak there minds

    @Metaaphor @charlieINTEL the fact this **** made it into whatever version they showcased to us shows the insane disconnect from the playerbase. it´s not a new issue. this ****´s been a plague to kbm cod and honestly to cod as a whole for multiple titles now. **** them fr mfs made tarkov out of arcade cod
