    @Lizard_King117 @noAcking @Shyway I just feel making CoD exclusive would put Xbox in a whole heap of legal issues. Personally, I think the whole ABK buyout shouldn't have been touched since Activision is nuclear levels of hot. But Phil Spencer and Microsoft suits only saw $$ and it hurt Xbox big time.

    @kelskiYT Once you take out all the japanese pandering, live service slop, dlc announcements, halo gears CoD & metro which xbox rely on every year, bethesda rpgs What are you actually left with…

    @CallofDuty the security settings are keeping me from playing your game. I updated my BIOS, wound up having to reinstall Windows fresh, secure boot is on, and my TPM 2.0 is on. Help me solve the issue, please.

    @InfinityWard Thats dumb that will NOT FIX THE PROBLEM add a PvE only Mode

    @Lunnzies @PeterP_1985 People seem to forget this when discussing 1st party releases. I imagine now that Xbox has started in a stride that next gen Xbox should have a minimum of 5 games/year (not including COD) but this is the issue with the GP model, just like I don't like every PS release,

    @CallofDuty make it make sense… if you’re going to match lower ranks against Plats and higher, why are you punishing players by taking 50+ SR when the matchmaking itself is the problem? Stop putting uneven teams together and then making players pay for it like we controlled the lobby. The system needs adjusting because being hard stuck due to unbalanced matchmaking is beyond frustrating. Ranked should reward skill and teamwork, not punish people because the matchmaking can’t create fair matches. Fix the system. 🔥

    @ThatARCGuy I’ve finally hit my wall. The game is just too stale at this point. Absolutely nothing of an incentive to play. Map rotations are currently broken. Expedition is boring and repetitive (done all three). Updates are minimally enjoyable and for a small period of time. I now see what all the noise with Embark was about with Helm Divers. Release an incredible game, and have absolutely no plan to maintain that base. Sad but true. Back to Destiny and COD I go.

    @tactmedic52 The problem is not having a PVE at all a lot of people like playing cod but not fighting other players

    @Treyarch @CallofDuty killing me smalls! Nerfed the Ion and Arrow the made literally every glitch bot over powered. Using barrage with explosive rounds it takes an entire clip for one zombie or human. Ion same problem. 🤪

    @CallofDuty please, correct the inaccuracy/ glitch on everyone’s rank. EVERYONE is bronze. lol everyone I have no idea who I solo q up with. Or what rank. 🤔 been going on for a while

  • TheAT0MIKyt

    DMZ looks incredible, but will it have the same problems CoD has had for the last few years? Cheaters, Packet Burst, etc. I guess we will see.

  • broncochampion
    bronco champions (@broncochampion) reported

    @MmmmDoughnuts21 @dkdynamite1 A huge issue with CoD is the lack of morality in the player-base. You see how they treat the devs & studios. Absolutely no reason to be this cruel to each other. Cheating, glitching, & abusing metas may be okay in PvE, but PvP allows you to ruin the experience of other humans.

    @InfinityWard Yall better fix the crossplay bug on Xbox that allows PC players on gamepass to get in Xbox only lobbies. There’s thousands of us on console that would like to not get rage hacked on in MW4 DMZ

  • nova_935
    ~Lucas~ | Nova V2 (@nova_935) reported

    @ZC2forBO7 It’s not an issue of DMZ lacking a PvE element, it’s an issue of this being the first cod in 18 years to have ZERO offering in terms of pure co-op PvE If they decide to cut specops & zombies, then DMZ itself needs to fill that slot in SOME way for that PvE co-op element of COD

  • TroyHalo7

    @GhostOfSparta1_ Do you know Halo Studios is backed by Xbox and Microsoft, and yet they purposely and actively choose not to make it what it could be? I thought your big bad Microsoft bought activision blizzard aka cod so what’s the issue? I knew you were gonna say that bro, it doesn’t matter who I compare it to, I could’ve said Valorant, I could have said Marvel Rivals, Fortnite, GTA6, Fckin goddamn rocket league💀The ***** been in Halo’s court since 343 took over and they made the franchise commit seppuko Adding all these Fck *** samurai bullshit slop.

  • IziGamesInc

    So I raised a ticket to @CallofDuty support and provided all the necessary information to show that my pc meets all the requirements to be able to play. I appreciate that support didn’t just tell me to **** off and buy a new motherboard, but instead they told me that this issue is be investigated at the moment and that I should keep an eye on the upcoming update. I encourage anyone with the same “bios update required issue” to raise a ticket and let the @ATVIAssist Activision support know about this. #cod #warzone

    @CallofDuty @CallofDutyCM, I can't see my reticle challenges for Black Ops 6 and Warzone. Please fix it.

  • ShootzFPS
    ShootzFPS (@ShootzFPS) reported

    Multiplayer in black ops 7 feels so off right now. Lag, frame rate drops, I’m not even sure what it is anymore but it seems even worse as soon as streaks come in or a ton of explosives start going off, the game takes a huge tank in performance @Treyarch @TreyarchCM @CallofDuty

  • Raices1234
    Alex (@Raices1234) reported

    @CallofDuty You need to make another anti cheat much stronger than the current one, we have big problems with cheaters in Call of Duty,and every time I report a cheater we should be notified to ban them from the game!!

  • FinestLTaker

    @InfinityWard It looks great but my biggest problem in DMZ beta was constantly get hunted by other squads during my solo plays. Is there anything you’ve added to help support avoiding enemy players?

  • Darkviper_XZ

    My game is crashing playing Endgame and Zombies, can you fix it or atleast look after it, my game never crashed until this update came out (Im playing in a Ps5 Slim) @CallofDuty @Treyarch

  • MrViceKC
    Kris | Mr. Vice 🧠🎮🇹🇹 (@MrViceKC) reported

    @Nick_Marseil Its a start but most of the games still coming to PS5. It wont really be full exclusives till they take the hard stance and pull their big games they got through those acquisitions and make those exclusive. Doom, ES6, Fallout etc I would say cod but tbh every MP/live service game should be multiplatform and that needs to stay.

  • MagicMan331
    B-Wes (@MagicMan331) reported

    @Battlefield How about you stop listening to the cod fanbase and fix the ttk issue. I get killed just as fast in BF6 as cod. THAT'S INSANE. Dice is trying to please both sides in order to get more money. And that is making the game BAD. They should be working on platoons, bigger maps, etc.

  • Pookie33Stan
    👀 (@Pookie33Stan) reported

    @greataccou89654 @QNDZYcom No. It’s worse if you spend $40 for a cod that’s 16 years old. XD punished snakers, couldn’t go prone, no streaks but instead abilities/ultras, and no hacking problem. Which cod is it like?

  • GamingAnoo83800
    AnoobisGaming (@GamingAnoo83800) reported

    I love GP but if you're paying this much every year and you're only playing CoD then you should just simply buy the game and unsub. Thats a LOT of people's problem.

  • DerProgear
    Gear (@DerProgear) reported

    @CallofDuty @InfinityWard Sorry but PvP is **** the last DMZ was full of warzone sweat idiots they not play story missions only to kill another player thats was the MAIN problem a PvE only mode would fix this iam done with you lying ********.

    @Activision how come you can get chat banned for saying “******” but won’t chat ban me for saying “*****” @CallofDuty Hope I like hell y’all fix this because to me it looks selectively on purpose.
