    @Voodoo_Hendrix @biofalkner COD games will always sell well. It's like the ******* tide. It's expected. Even Infinite Warfare, which sold 50% less than BO3, topped the sales charts. The issues don't come from getting people to buy, it's getting them to stay. And MW19 failed that

    Thanks @Activision I got chat banned for nothing, then while I am chat banned (7 days in of 14, i can't talk or text) I was warned about my chat activity saying I was going to get chat banned again. Fix it. @ATVIAssist

    @BattlefieldComm Who gives a ****?!? Fix the ******* game. Netcode is still shiiiit, TTk is a joke, if I want to play COD I play COD, wtf is this!?! Keep your stupid boats, fix the gameplay!!!! Been playing since BF3 but this probably is the last BF game I‘ll buy, just painful to play 🤮

    @MagumoKawasaki @mcquack306 No game pass is the problem. Putting huge as game onto game pass day one is not sustainable. If Game Pass is so great then why did they take cod off of it day one?

  • somilagrawal
    Somil Agrawal (@somilagrawal) reported

    @janwhyy The RTO(Return to Origin) - package not delivered due to customer refused delivery, address not found etc - on COD is 26-28% and on Prepaid is 2%. Returns - after customer has accepted an order and wants to return due to size fit/product mismatch etc - are not very different between COD and Prepaid - that is dependent on the product quality. You have mixed up RTO with genuine returns. Apparels and shoes will always be high returns category due to lack of standardized sizing as well as fitment challenges. It’s not an ecommerce problem but how the broader category operates. Even offline, no one buys apparel or shoes without trying them on for fitment and comfort. It’s the same consumer behavior online. Plus, unknown/little known D2C brands do not evoke trust compared to even a small physical store hence customers want to stay safe. Absolutely nothing wrong with this behavior.

    @Bushzino1 @DestinLegarie They spent 3 billion on Bungie, and Bungie has already lost a ton of value and is on the verge of disappearing. Meanwhile, CoD is still bringing in cash, and so are WoW, Diablo, and all of Activision Blizzard's live-service games. PS has killed Destiny, and Marathon is struggling to even get off the ground—so are you seriously going to tell me who's the one losing money?

    @Official_Mole the game is in a bad spot when you can run the ball for 6+ yds a carry and call a cover 0 blitz with 0 safety help for four quarters. Because adjusted protection doesn’t hold and traditional man beating routes are being bagged even with improper shading. No safety help all game is just streak simulator pray for a green, and brain dead defense from the opponent. Cov 0 & Run around with the unaccounted for guy, isn’t a defense. Just so they can get the ball back and try to green a 9 or hand the ball of 23 times. Stat thresholds don’t matter 81 mcv db and lb look like revis against 85 RR WR and TE. Anyone can throw HJS and go right or left for prominent yards. Hard flats covering the rpo flat(Nickel or 4–2-5 box safety) don’t bag the play anymore. Aggressive, Ultra Aggressive, doesn’t matter. Guy still gets blocked. Every run is a sweep, defenders who are supposed to be looking into the backfield are surprised when the ball is handed off. Conversely the 3 high safety formation which has a max total of 6 guys in the box is able to subdue the run with a simple 4 man twist. Off ball linebackers at DE winning in the pass rush or shedding in the run game because of speed. 50-80 lb differential goes out the window. Pretty sure earnest greene would at least be able to seal a let’s say whit weeks, majority of the time. Total waste of linemen. Might as well be 7on7. Players already talking about “when we get 90 cod we get the speed boost back.” Please don’t allow this. The mechanic made at least 50% of players more viable because of how it dismantles pursuit angles. This is an issue. Thank you for your time.

    @InfinityWard @WhiteManReborn If you guys manage to not solve this problems before the launching day cause you guys had this imense pride with such a stupid mecanic, so its probably going to be the biggest fumble Ive ever seen. We had 3 teams working a lot to remove that, and you guys DONT HAVE ENOUGH FDBACK?

  • MajorBuginator

    This is part of the reason why. Games released on annual cycles and live service models. It's a min/max solution to extract cash and provide a bare minimum. I've bought CoD twice in my life. Once at a **** shop, once at a GameStop. Had a handful of friends that let me bother with other entries and they were confused that I'd bother with campaign.

    @SkyG59 @theOnlyArai @DesertReaperr Idk if you realize but the cod points don’t come with xp lobbies. Even if it’s an “issue” on their end, they are abusing it. Anything that changes level through files, etc is cheating. Modifying a save file is also cheating because your changing values in the game.

    🐢🇫🇷φ FALLAIT VOTER CHONCHON φ #JLM2027🇲🇶🐢 (@Melenchon4Ever) reported

    @TheXclusiveAce @InfinityWard 90% of gunfights in COD happen in CQC. Using the remaining 10% of gunfights that happen at medium range to discredit my concern is not a fair argument Ace. Yes. " Will. " I'm standing by that. We have absolutely no information about the build they were using in that gameplay, so yeah, you could be right. Things could be less overpowered than i imagine them to be, but... You know damn well that : -1. They would never use the most broken build possible for a showcase. -2. A ton of MW2019 weapons had 3/4 bullet to kill damage models. -3. Now look at your own illustration. No recoil control was being applied, i'm a PC player, i'm hitting those 4 shots. -4. Last but not least, this is coming from the very same studio that brought us SBMM and an extremely fast TTK, both of which they openly stand by as ways to give less experienced players a better chance to get kills. Therefore, one could easily assume that this is just another way for them to make the game more accessible to very inexperienced players, ruining the experience for everyone else. This mechanic needs to be taken seriously, keeping in mind that betas always feel great because nobody has unlocked their full set of attachments or killstreaks yet. I didn't tag you to beef with you. I tagged you because your voice has REACH, and if this turns out to be what i think it is (instant death), THE COMMUNITY will need you to speak about it.
