-
Vee🇿🇦 (@Master_767) reported@Mister_Sev @charlieINTEL Funny how I played COD without any problem online
-
SPOT (@Spot_IX) reported@ConorFour Bad take. the movement is not the issue. It’s just a sloppy *** cod. And the ports feel good. At least with the dualsense edge controller.
-
Luke Erickson (@DarthXerros) reported@TheGameVerse It’s naive to think all users are created equal. Those that care enough to protest Sony will skew heavily on the higher spender side. It’s the casual that hasn’t even heard about the issue yet that doesn’t matter because they have a basic subscription and only buy Madden and CoD
-
Tanish Tirpathi (@tanishtirpathi) reportedlike last night i download the cod black ops game via anker games and first time it game me error so I thought its about window secuerty I just off that and then run it still didn't work I delete it and now morning my wifi driver got ****** spend last 8 hrs to fix
-
Papa 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸 (@papa_yogurt_) reported@00selm I play CoD n other shooters but the problem is a lot of yall exclusively play CoD n NBA/FIFA/Madden year after year n then ***** there aint anything out there. Could care less if you solely wanna play shooters or sports games but don't speak if you dont rly engage with the medium
-
Luke (@lukeyy93) reported@jpp188csgo @ArturoThaGod @JakeSucky Yea I have watched csgo a bit in my time. Especially in the KennyS days! But just for cod im speaking it just doesn’t make sense thats all. So many issues which would be eliminated with console. Plus it also makes it more accessible for challengers too due to cost
-
Isaak_Goldmann (@ChadT69528) reported@MagaMachine1776 @ExoGhost The bugs have nothing to do with the tech specs of ur PC. Some bugs like the broken AA rockets are from the last game imported. just get in a plane or heli and u will see it. And the COD map design is pure ****. Take AA and sit in ur base and shot at aircrafts.

Silencerz addict Jordan (LucarioRoolz) (@LucarioRoolz) reportedPTG members when you're using helpful software to fix a ****** cod emblem editor with ****** UVs and not doing something like cheating in your own events: 😡😡😡😡😡😡
-
James - JGOD (@JGODYT) reported@BradIsTheShT The Old MW2/3 would do better numbers imo so I expect to see those ports in the works. When it comes to MWII (recent) it was overly complicated, generally bad maps, weird recoil/smoke on weapons, cross leveling on weapons for attachments, tuning, delayed perks were unnatural for cod, unresponsive movement/animation locks, audio balance issues, spawns, minimap functionality, UI/Menus (hulu LMAO),.. probably more, but thats the basics hahahah
-
James - JGOD (@JGODYT) reported@BradIsTheShT Also, this is without getting into the problems with DMZ/Warzone. Greatest failed potential and conversion of hype in the history of the franchise, there will never be another example of a cod that has that difference between those 2 things.
-
Cactus (@Ko2099) reported@Thats_Just_in The problem is that number is but a fraction of what sony is set to make off the new cod and gta 6…. You could make wolverine and laufey flop and sony would just end up downsizing insomniac and santa monica to recoup costs. Only way to really hit them will be with ps6
-
Kfer (@Kfer1404) reportedalways hated the idiots saying „ooh there is no gameplay its just a movie with buttons” yeah ******* if thats a problem go play fifa or cod Gaming is a huge medium with many different ways to tell really good stories not every game needs to be a 1st person shooter

RICO TO TREASON (@F1sT) reported@WarzoneAlerts The false positive scam by infinity ward. In the summer of 2026, the charts lit up with a familiar name. Call of Duty: Black Ops II — a game originally released in 2012 — sat at the top of the most-played PlayStation titles in the United States, ahead of Fortnite and the newest entries in the Call of Duty series. The internet celebrated. “Nostalgia wins.” “This is what the community really wants.” Screenshots of the rankings spread like proof of a collective verdict against modern CoD. But the numbers don’t say what many people claim they say. There are still more PlayStation 4 consoles in living rooms than PlayStation 5s. Millions of those PS4s are plugged into older televisions and monitors that never saw 4K or 120 Hz. For a lot of those households, the newest Call of Duty games have become something else entirely: expensive annual purchases stacked on top of already high console prices, battle-pass pressure, and $20–$30 skin bundles. When the cost of keeping up feels like a second rent payment, people stop keeping up. So when Activision dropped a simple, relatively cheap port of Black Ops II that runs cleanly on last-generation hardware, a large group of players did the practical thing. They played the game that still worked with the equipment they already owned. No new TV required. No new console required. No feeling that the game was built for someone else’s setup and wallet. That is not the same thing as a mass declaration that the community has rejected modern Call of Duty and chosen 2012 forever. It is what happens when a significant portion of the player base has been priced out of the current product and is left with what they already have. The charts recorded activity. They did not record preference under equal conditions. The loud celebration online treated raw login numbers as a moral victory. In reality, those numbers also measure who can still afford to show up.

RunnemUpRozay (@dj_rozaytpc) reported@ATVIAssist so what’s up with this ban on black Ops 6? I can’t even play my game before work after a power outage last week while in rest mode. And yall don’t even have a contact phone number or anything? I’m not with no bullying or nothing so how am I banned? Send me a message
-
Holly Rebecca (@HxllReBxcca) reportedCan someone help me fix this secure boot and tpm 2.0 **** please because I literally play Val but can’t play cod, i don’t understand how the anti cheats can be so stupid??
-
Mikka 「みっか」 (@mitsuki_mikka) reported@murtazasheikh91 @ATVIAssist Same issues @Fixerport did mine less than a minute
-
Paul Taylor_YT (@paultaylor2003) reported@CallofDuty @Kaiiamii Ignoring your angry playerbase isn't gonna make the backlash go away, we haven't forgotten what you did. Now fix your damn game.

Jennifer Nyesom (@nwerenda) reportedA staff was playing COD game all night at the home and was so loud. The child who he is supposed to be caring for reported to the manager and his social worker. Called staff in for supervision, staff denied and said he was on the call with his mum for family emergency. Issue escalated quickly as negligence. I had to remove staff from the home. I just gave up, got a British manager and just became passive. I was constantly having anxiety because I have to be alert at night because our people must call for everything even after training.
-
Austin Bourque (@genemoneyman) reported@Protoman500 @SoaRZelta It really is sad, because imo it fixes a lot of issues with the franchise bringing back those 2 perks. I’ve made an entire 40 page document on how I’d design a cod and am actually building my own clone as we speak.
-
The Real MBM (@TheRealMBM12) reported@CallofDuty The game is officially ******. Broken
-
Levels 🔼 (@aintgotnathan_) reported@Dcroft I actually like that last suggestion a lot, if they want to keep speed boosting in the game then cool! But adding it to only 99 COD players would almost eliminate the problem all together and allow it to feel more “realistic”
-
Larry 💣💥 (@yolarrydabomb) reportedHas epic look at battlenet lately? Like I just rebuying cod on sale on steam just so I can uninstall the broken *** trash. Its time to put these apps to rest and have steam only
-
TexasRattler (@texasrattler2) reported@CODMunityGG @CallofDuty Its not going to happen again. There are several reason besides the obvious legal reasons aka privacy reasons, certain laws in other countries, they also dont like sharing data like how their sbmm and eamm are done. Plus, matchmaking issues can occur.
-
🧠🎮TG| Big PurP (@PurP30_) reported@UncleHox Seen COD crash outs that should be investigated fr with that same stat 😭😭
-
WTFISWIFI (@ProfessorGTD) reported@FreakLunes @lilduval Gang that **** was untouchable for a long time 10 years ago. It cleared COD and 2k in their prime. From kids to grown *** men and women. How you not mainstream when every big name in gaming has attempted to copy the Battle Pass and live service formula they created to this day.
-
zZilent (@zzilent_) reported@tyzr7x Some playlist and sniper setups are painful af to play i agree. But bo7 was an amazing sniping cod before the stelok laser nerf. And suprisingly there are combos of sights and set ups that make it feel better, better connection to shots etc. The issue with every cod is while its the new cod they do these broken updates on the side that mess up the bullet registration, the feeling of the shot and a bunch more. Then certain days and certain times (region dependent) will give you amazing lobbies or absolute *** lobbies. Its unplayable if you dont experiment and find the right combo per given state of the game. Its horrible to do to the player base I know.
-
Xx HyPno 88 xX (@Real_Hooper88) reported@Dcroft I had the same idea of changing the COD threshold to 99 then the only way to get it would be late year CUT players or nobody if they chose not give anyone that rating. This is a good fix if speed boosting is tied to the movement engine
-
JoeBrust (@PSJoeBrust) reported@_JNoe_ @NicoleOfCringe Yeah, but the same people who complained about these issues for the last 2-3 years will continue to buy the game anyway. People SAY "not buying MW4" but then backtrack instantly; hell, people originally thought BO7 was gonna be ***, but then COD marketed it as "THE BO2 SEQUEL!"
-
Drake Baldwin Fan Club (@jalenszn) reported@NerosCinema Anyone still playing COD...I don't know. I get the pros, cause they're pros. But if you are a casual still playing COD, just quit. Quit playing. Quit buying it. Find something else to play. The franchise will either die or they'll fix it. Either is better than what we have now.
-
Squirrel McNuts (@SquirrelReFX) reported@Gamer14F I recall games like Advanced Warfare shoving the "here's a bonus supply drop if you play this niche game mode". And Infinite Warfare had that daily login thing that basically forced the incentive to log in and play at least one match a day. I definitely hate the shaders, makes me miss console but it is what it is.
