  @Knoebelbroet Fun fact: When some kids in the early 2010s hacked Xbox, they found games used for military training made by cod devs Goes to show how the co-creator of cod dies in a car crash at the same time nuclear fusion creators were offing themselves in the woods

  Anyone else got broken augments in zombies ??? @CallofDuty @TreyarchCM I’ve had this before @CODPersonal but I was still able to keep 3 equipped after doing a restart. Nothing is working now and I can’t have 1 major 2 minors equipped at one time.

  @raratoman @IronGalaxy What do yall not understand about it being a port. Since this leaked it’s been “add this” “add that” “are you going to fix this”. It’s just going to be a port of the same ******* game and it’ll probably play like **** and be full of hackers in a couple hours from cod tv.

  @Dreamcast_1999 @ExoGhost I know, that’s what I said. Even with slower TTK, person who shoots first IS at an advantage. But they shouldn’t be guaranteed the kill, because shooting first isn’t always necessarily “skillful”, and it would also make gunfights kind of boring and inexistent. That’s the problem with a fast TTK, the person who shoots first often gets the kill like 90% of the time, regardless of skill. I’m only talking about COD right now. Obviously this is different for other games. Fast TTK works in games like Rainbow Six Siege because the mechanics and purpose of the game is very different.

  BO7 Bug Report - Global [June 16] M10 Breacher Argus Lever Attachment fire rate inconsistency on Stock-preserving Mastercraft Blueprints. Environment: Tested on June 12, on ATVI ID: ChadOfDuty#3409721, PC/BattleNet, Patch 3.9.1, Changelog 27435309. Description: When the M10 Breacher Argus Lever attachment is equipped on Mastercraft variants of the M10 shotgun that preserve the Stock attachment slot, the fire rate behaves inconsistently compared to the base M10 with the same attachment. In-game Gunsmith stats show the Argus Lever attachment grants a 13% faster fire rate on the base M10 (86 RPM) and a 39% faster fire rate on the MasterCraft (105 RPM), each relative to their own un-attached baseline. Testing under rapid trigger input confirms fire rates with this disparity, with the Mastercraft firing noticeably faster than the base M10. However, this gap largely disappears under controlled hold-fire input (Settings > [Input] > Combat > Manual Fire Behavior > "Hold"), with both variants converging to a similar fire rate (~92-94 RPM) that falls between the two stated in-game RPM values. This suggests the bug may be tied to how fire rate is calculated or applied under rapid input conditions, rather than a straightforward stat error. Testing was conducted specifically on the "Dire Experiment" Mastercraft, the only one I currently own for the M10. While tested only in Multiplayer, it is very likely this bug affects other modes; but MP and WZ are the main points of concern, being they are inherently PvP. Reproduction Steps: 1. Equip the base M10 Breacher shotgun with the Argus Lever attachment. 2. Enter a Multiplayer match and test the fire rate by rapidly spam-triggering into a wall, tracking time from first shot to final shot. 3. Note the time elapsed. 4. Equip the same attachment on a Mastercraft variant of the M10. 5. Repeat step 2 with the Mastercraft. 6. Compare fire rates between the base M10 and Mastercraft; the MasterCraft will fire noticeably faster. 7. Repeat steps 1-6 holding fire with the Manual Fire Behavior setting toggled to "Hold." 8. Observe that under hold-fire, both variants fire at similar rates. Expected Result: The M10 Breacher with Argus Lever should fire at a consistent rate regardless of which weapon variant (base or Mastercraft) is equipped. Actual Result: Under rapid trigger input, the MasterCraft variant fires significantly faster than the base M10 plus Argus Lever, despite both using the same attachment. This discrepancy is less pronounced under controlled hold-fire input, suggesting the bug is tied to how fire rate behaves under rapid input conditions. Notes [Repro Video]: My testing methodology tracked fire rate by measuring time elapsed from the first shot animation frame to the final shot animation frame across the M10's standard 8-round capacity. Spam-trigger testing showed the MasterCraft completing the magazine in approximately 4.28 seconds versus the base M10's 5.11 seconds. However, the Settings > [Input] > Combat > Manual Fire Behavior > "Hold" toggle brought both variants' mag-empty time closer to one another, between 5.11–5.20 seconds, suggesting input handling (steady cadence vs. trigger finger spam) may play a role in the fire rate discrepancy. Mastercrafts are designed to override certain attachment visuals to preserve their unique aesthetic; in this case, keeping the pump-action appearance even when the Argus Lever attachment is equipped, which would normally swap the gun to a lever-action animation. It's possible this visual override is interfering with the fire rate values the Argus Lever attachment is supposed to apply, causing the inconsistent behavior observed under rapid input. This bug is suspected to extend to any other current or future Mastercraft blueprint that preserves the Stock attachment slot, since the root cause appears tied to that visual attachment preservation rather than anything specific to the "Dire Experiment" variant itself.

  @GamingSinceNES And yes, GP cannibalized sales, but not ALL sales. Good games, like Expedition 33, which also released on GP DAY-1, sold a lot. The same applied to COD: BO6. To say GP was their problem, yet not once have Asha or Satya said it did, or is ridiculous.

  @Shpeshal_Nick @whocarestcg1 The problem is how do you rectify it... I think if MS came out and said that no games were day and date going forward and did the same as with COD (12 months minimum) people wouldn't be happy with that. If they did that though their sales would improve massively so it's tricky!

  @x713_ht @SpeedGod_CDN @Shpeshal_Nick what triggered all this situation is not "plateauing". nadella's greed called for all the things I listed above, and the columniation of each BAD and DISRESPECTFUL "policy" ended up as a middle finger to xbox costumers. When GPU price DOUBLED from what is was pre-COD and COD ...sucked, xbox customers finally showed their own middle finger to xbox! I'm pretty sure that MANY MILLIONS of subscribers quit the service, on top of choosing to buy their games elsewhere.

  @thegamebusiness @Chris_Dring Game Pass was the segment of the business that was subsidizing poorly performing games like Pentiment and Kiln. They made a huge mistake adding COD to it and raising the price so high, but now that they have fixed that, the service will go back to being a huge money maker. Anyone who says Game Pass missed is just a complete moron.

  Romania is a sleeper market in Eastern Europe almost no US founder has tested. 19 million people. EU member. High mobile penetration. Romanian content works (with Hungarian as a secondary option for the 6% Hungarian-speaking minority). Meta CPMs at $2-3 in beauty and supplements. The local ecom market is dominated by AliExpress, eMag (the Romanian Amazon equivalent), and a few weak local brands with poor creative. US-style direct response with proper offer structure and creative testing infrastructure has almost zero direct competition. Payment infrastructure: card processing is standard (Stripe Romania works), cash on delivery handles roughly 35% of orders in Romania, 40%+ in Bulgaria and Hungary outside the capitals. FAN Courier plus Sameday handle last-mile in 24-48 hours nationwide. A founder I know runs a hair growth brand exclusively across Romania, Bulgaria, and Hungary. Combined $220K/month run rate, 18 months in. Two-person team. CAC $16 in Romania, $18 in Bulgaria, $21 in Hungary on paid traffic. COD refusal runs 20-30% across the 3 markets, so real cost per delivered order is meaningfully higher than the paid CAC suggests. AOV $44 blended. Reorder rate within 60 days around 30% (auto-billed subscription doesn't work well here because of COD prevalence - the retention engine is WhatsApp and email re-engagement on repeat purchase). What's hard about it: translation and customer service across 3 languages. He uses native-speaker VAs in Bucharest, Sofia, and Budapest at $6-9/hour. Each market has its own dedicated CS rep. The operational lift is real but manageable at this scale. Eastern Europe combined (Poland, Romania, Czech Republic, Hungary, Bulgaria, Croatia, Slovakia, Slovenia) is roughly 100M+ people. Most US founders ignore the region entirely because it requires multi-language creative testing. Worth testing if you have a product that translates well and operational bandwidth for 3-5 language markets at once.

  @EXODUS935 @Sugarkytle6969_ @AleexBlaze BO3 on PS4 doesn’t have a cheater problem. The reason there are cheaters are current COD is because of crossplay. So that just negates every point you made.

  I’m not purchasing a release day, day one game for full price unless it is a tried and true 10/10 game within my viewpoint of what a good game is, probably only from one of my 5-10 favorite game series. My issue with Xbox is it took CoD out of XGPU breaking their promise to me.

  @FaZeScope My problem with this is, plutonium and the other cod clients exist on pc, almost entirely hacker free, these are ports from xbox 360 and ps3. They should just remaster the games bc they will release them with underline issues that is impossible to fix bc of the engine.

  @LordFarquaazdj @SpawnYaardReply @klobrille Even crap cod releases sell well. Them putting it in GP, as well as the quality, affected sales. I think it should be 6 months for that to go to GP, instead of 12, but they know people will buy it at launch now. People want their cod fix and won’t wait
