  A delivery person arrived at her doorstep with a small parcel that had her name and address on it. He insisted that I pay ₹500 immediately. The problem? She had never placed such an order and never use Cash on Delivery, so she refused to pay.When checked the package, she noticed another parcel inside with a different person’s details. Inside was a small broken carton containing half a bar of Rin washing soap, PURE SCAM! She recorded videos of the parcel, the unboxing, and the interaction. And sharing this not to target any individual or company, but to create awareness so that no one else especially people who are alone at home falls victim to something similar. Please remember: • Never pay for a parcel you didn’t order. • Verify every COD delivery before making any payment. • Keep the person outside your door if you’re alone. • Record the interaction if something feels suspicious. • Report suspicious incidents to the police and the delivery company. All citizens need to stay cautious. If you’ve experienced something similar in Bengaluru or elsewhere, share your experience in the comments. The more awareness we create, the safer our communities become.

  @Alo_Alyce Reg gun users are bums in my opinion, flexing 45 using a gun you don’t have to aim on and have huge room for error and misses isn’t the same as 45 on a sniper where you have to be spot on every shot and missing 99% of the time means death. If you’ve been playing cod however long and you think you’re good you should be sniping, PERIOD

  @Twileyyy_ @xFleXy_ @Metaaphor Controller player here The AA is pretty broken in cod lol, you play any another game that has AA, you’re not seeing their AA like cod has. That’s why like 80% of players on cod play controller on both PC and console and also MnK gets shafted in someway on cod every year and can’t compete

  @CoffeeManYT @Mys1tica Part of it is honestly just a limitation of myself. Two-plus decades with the franchise means the early years learning curve is long gone. I've learned the gameplay, familiar with the various formulas, can't reset the clock (as fun as that would be). The content that defined the COD4 to BO2 era I grew up in; tutorials, tips and tricks, jumps and spots, road to prestige, people putting silly restrictions on their loadouts to see if they could beat the odds, etc. - it hit differently when we were still figuring the games out as a community. I really do feel that the internet overall, negativity has become a business model. Algorithms pay for click-through rates, outrage thumbnails beat neutral ones, and drama is great at holding people's attention. Once a channel grows on shitpost or grievance content, the audience enforces it; post something hopeful and the comments accuse you of being a shill. Most of these creators (grifters) are not inherently bad people. They are either really sick of how COD has changed, fair enough - and/or actors inside an incentive structure that rewards content like that. We get so many changes and content additions with live service model - so now basically every hotfix, balance pass, and blog is a monetizable grievance. We didn't really have that back when the games got 4 DLCs and a handful of updates throughout the YEAR. What instead stuck with COD YouTube the last decade plus is a heavy news/loadout-focus and what I'll loosely label a "criticism niche." I'd argue this is the case because both categories are "renewable resources" and purely creative formats are not as easily sustained if you're either not naturally creative (why I don't make content btw) or have just played SO many years of the same games. This probably sounds weird and somewhat hypocritical coming from a guy whose entire social media image is built around discourse and feedback. But real feedback in my view is constructively formatted and aimed at the people who can act on it; criticism-as-content is mostly just aimed at an audience of like-minded players for their entertainment. I cannot tell you how many hundreds of times I've heard the same rant commentaries about SBMM, monetization, people hating COD as a "movement shooter," and "[insert dev/studio] bad" - all containing valid criticisms, but it's ALL my algorithm feeds me now. Over and over and over, YouTube and socials. Again, plenty of that criticism has been warranted. My problem is not that it exists. It's the obnoxious monoculture and the reflexiveness that has engulfed the community because everyone suddenly became a full-time game critic. Every single addition or change gets sorted into good or bad, covered (repeatedly) in ranty commentaries with minimal nuance or factual/constructive foundations, and often refusing to celebrate positive changes when they come. There is so much passion in our community, I honestly love that - but so often I see it wasted as emotional spew and outright hatred towards people just doing their jobs to create a virtual toy. TL:DR I could've saved your time by boiling this whole response into two words: Curiosity --> Contempt

  @alexaugerdev I think this is only an issue in niches where there is literally only one option. If someone made a game that 1:1 played like CoD MW2 no one would say anything because there are already 1000 games that play similar to it. small niches invite direct comparison unfortunately

  @tally1k Cod players play differently than they did 10 yrs ago. It’s why the new ones suck no matter how they try to fix it. Cod itself is broken not the players

  Jimoar (@JimoarGaming) reported 24 minutes ago

  @davidscottjaffe Why would you support these? These are bought and played by the few. Your all about catering to the many. You should celebrate fortnite,roblox, cod and sports games. After all you believe the whole industry should cater to the many and be but nothing but those live service games.

  @AnshulGarg1986 Yes, one thing better would be the cod. Which still has work to be done but come a long way since FK started. But the main problem here is the last mile delivery boy issue which needs a more culture take than tech one.

  @IceManIsaac @CallofDuty I’m NGL @IceManIsaac I think you’re reaching and doing the things you’re asking would just lead to an even further increase in false bans which would lead to a decrease in the already diminishing player base. The you can easily just check the audio output coming from live streams during tournaments. Hosts of tourneys need to ban the use of this stuff and that will lead to tournaments for money being cleaner. But trying to have cheat software start issuing bans isn’t gonna solve the issue.

  @JoshRousu @NICKMERCS @GearsofWar Exactly, it’s a skill issue. And just because you type it doesn’t make it true. Omnimovement, sliding/slide cancelling has dissuaded casuals from playing cod for years now. As well as the micros which GOW is trying to get away from here. Nobody hurt me tubby, don’t get mad now.

  I have 2.5 gig fiber hard wired to a 5 gig nic on my pc and have never lagged out of a game of cod in my life and it’s happened 3 times tonight only difference is I just got a gamesir 8k doubt that’s the issue but any ideas?

  @MattWilliamson9 if it was like slide cancel jumps in cod id understand, there is an imbalance to that due to the camera speed. but if it isnt anything broken i dont see a point in winging. its very clear people cant handle feeling lesser than. and they lack motivation to learn things

  Worst part about COD ranked isn’t even the gameplay or maps. I actually like it. BUT @Activision, why in the hell am I playing against Crimson and Iridescent players in gold and plat lobby’s…. Can we fix the rank system…

  @ULTRSUPERGOGETA @Vnsy153 @Corbmonoxide935 The gaming industry is changed. Some devs thrive more with the live service like Fortnite. COD just needs to realize they are one of them… No one wants to play a new **** cod every year except new gen kids that don’t know any better

  And BO3 had way more flaws than that, zombies had its own huge problems like gobblegums (I've always thought they were bad for the mode, but they were also implemented badly at launch), maps crashing randomly, 3 hit down was controversial. I always considered bo3 a bad cod.

  @CallofDuty Bringing Black Ops 1 & 2 to PS4/PS5 was only a matter of time before hackers targeted these ports. Regardless of whether @IronGalaxy is handling them, these are Call of Duty titles. The community asks you to step up, address security issues, and clean up this mess!

  Something Something (@Somethingscary6) reported 59 minutes ago

  @SynthPotato They don't need to get rid of the 2096 plotline, they need to get rid of the Animus Hub. It's clear that Ubisoft's plan is to ripoff CoD HQ and have all of their games linked by a single live service app with Invictus as their Warzone equivalent to tie it all together.
