  @CallofDutyWire The best to date. Only ruined by sbmm and a lot of doors. Every cod since has had so many more issues and significantly worse quality for the sake of content quantity

  @justxavierisunc Gun and ball problem is going to ruin gaming. There is more money to be made making ****** liscened sports games or the 24th copy of CoD than there is anything unique or innovative. Rockstar the exception they make quality gun and sports slop

  @temp_anon1 my issue is **** isn't getting cheaper. These companies should be looking at AI as a threat to their existence and valuing their employees even more. I don't need Halo or CoD, I'll just play this for free. They can entice me with something AI cannot accomplish, a human effort instead.

  @SwiggyCares @SwiggyCares This is completely unacceptable. I am now preparing a detailed complaint for the Consumer Affairs Department along with all screenshots and chat records. My chat has already been transferred 9 times, yet no one has provided a final resolution. Instead, different teams are giving different explanations. On X, your team says one thing, while the Swiggy app chat says something else. Both orders were placed from the same mobile phone within 2–5 minutes of each other. The address is Eden City, Maheshtala in both orders. Only the Block/Flat number is different, not the locality or delivery location. The COD order was delivered successfully, but the prepaid order was cancelled claiming the location could not be found, and ₹140 was charged as a cancellation fee. This is contradictory and unacceptable. I expect: Immediate refund of ₹140. Appropriate compensation for the inconvenience caused. A clear written explanation for this contradiction. If this issue is not resolved immediately, I will submit all screenshots, chat transfers, and contradictory responses to the Consumer Affairs Department and, if necessary, the Consumer Commission for deficiency in service and unfair trade practices.

  @danxjmac @MrDalekJD @MmmmDoughnuts21 there's another problem though.. CoD Next is ALSO the 21st.. if they aren't flying anyone out, and doing targeted showings from people streaming it, that's one thing.. if they ARE though.. with Rex dropping the day before, any remotely zombies creator/streamer is effed royally

  @celtic_jaime Got ripped off at the seaview Saltburn last week on the sea front . Regular Cod and chips and regular Cod with mushy peas and 2 small bottles of water just under £30 (takeaway ) and poor counter service - 30 min cue wait 2 people serving 👎 What’s more the fish batter was dry 👎

  @PigeonGoGaming It was going to fail no matter what. Core gamers don't matter to Sony's bottom line. Most are on live service games or COD or Sports. The core audience is small and shrinking as costs are getting higher and digital sales are not as good as PS4 gen.

  @SwiggyCares @SwiggyCares Your own in-app support is contradicting what you’re saying here. For nearly 2 hours (from around 10:48 PM to 12:33 AM), my chat has been transferred 8–10 times without any proper resolution. Now your chat team has finally agreed to reverse the ₹140 cancellation fee, but you are still refusing to explain why my prepaid order was cancelled while my COD order, placed just 2–5 minutes later, was successfully delivered. Both orders were placed from the same Eden City, Maheshtala locality. The only difference was the Block/Flat number, not the delivery location. Claiming that the addresses were “different” is not a valid explanation. Please stop giving contradictory responses on X and in the app. I expect: Full refund of ₹140. A written explanation for the wrongful cancellation. Appropriate action for the unnecessary inconvenience and repeated chat transfers. I am preserving all screenshots and chat records and will submit them to the Consumer Affairs authorities if this issue is not resolved fairly.

  Since season launch, I've lost 600+ SR from getting kicked because of crashes and disconnects. I verify and repair my game constantly, yet it keeps happening. At this point, there's no way @Activision can't tell the difference between someone rage quitting and someone getting booted because of their buggy updates. Why are players being punished with SR loss and suspensions for YOUR servers and game issues? And explain this one... How are some players ranking Silver or Gold, restarting their game, and suddenly coming back Plat 3 or higher, while I'm over here dropping 55/15 with 130+ seconds on the objective and getting placed Gold 2? I've consistently been a Plat 3+ player. Competitive Ranked is supposed to reward performance and consistency, not punish players because the game can't stay connected. At this point, someone needs to be held accountable because this launch has been an absolute disaster. Literally give me back EVERY SINGLE POINT OF MY ******* SR. This is absolute bullshit. I'm getting kicked because of YOUR game, not because I'm quitting matches, and now you're punishing me with 600+ SR lost AND an hour-long suspension like I'm some 5-year-old rage quitting games? Nah. That's unacceptable. @CALLOFDUTY #CALLOFDUTY

  @user98765146435 @Pirat_Nation ...or nintendo hardware wasn't powerful enough to run the latest cod games until now? that's why games like cyberpunk 2077 are able to run on the switch 2 with little to no issue

  @SoloeGaming I don’t understand this cause it takes the entire squad skill into consideration that’s why 2 boxing is a thing 2. Even if they removed it this issue is still not fixed because once sweats enter the lobby it won’t be fun cod spawns way to predictable cause maps are small

  @horriblemercy @CallofDutyCM @CODUpdates Going to say it. Clear you have Internet issue. Played all day yesterday on the new sysytem and i found games faster they where full and i got into then games quicker then before as well. Skill ability in each game was very mixed. Im pretty sure people like you love to hate cod

  Austin Bourque (@genemoneyman) reported 52 minutes ago

  @TheGhostOfHope Due to cod having “positive feedback loop” in killstreaks, the game will always have a bottom up rage quit issue or a top down one. If the best players can’t get their streaks they are mad and quit. If the worst players get stomped they are mad and quit.

  Hey @CallofDutyCM @CODUpdates @CODPersonal They haven't fix the dev error message since the start from Season 4 to Season 5 and weapon inspecting Black Ops 7 weapons names. At the start of Season 5 I've notice the weapon names have moved from nearer to the mastery badge from further apart like 5 or 3.5 meters in Private matches in Multiplayer. Either it's a bug or intentional. For the dev error fix just close & open the COD HQ app. Which I have to do everytime. Here is the screenshot for evidence. My Activision ID: NaavmanGaming#1596362 & the platform I'm is Xbox Series X. I know Black Ops 7 is coming to an end of it's lifecycle and Modern Warfare 4 is launching in 3 months time. What is the ETA for fixing the bug.

  Guys, let's talk about this Physical Media thing. Sony and their marketing partners believe this won't be a big deal. Here's why it is. Consoles are sold close to cost. A $500 console (for instance) is sold to the retailer for around $495 and change. The only room for profitabiity is from the games and from the accessories. Yes, there are people out there that play on console that buy one or two games a year. Madden, COD, GTA, etc. That's what they want. That's what they play. They are more casual than core. There's another group out there that are much more the core gamer. They buy far more games a year, 10, 20, 30..etc. This has been the bread and butter for consoles for 40 years. There's nothing wrong with either audience, HOWEVER, the core audience is far more profitable than the casual due to the sheer number of games those people buy. Sony believes that the core will just shift over because that's what they are telling the audience to do. Guess what? They won't. They will migrate to Nintendo or Microsoft (unless they do the same, which they probably will) and get a PC since companies like Valve and GOG have a FAR better customer service record that "We just cancelled 500 movies off of our service wether you paid for it or not" Sony. If Sony doesn't have something tangible to distinguish themselves from the PC market, they will be gobbled up by it. Core gamers will migate to where their dollars are most valued, not where they are told to go. History has proven this time and time again. Nintendo pissed off their audeince, they went to PlayStation. Sony had the big head after PlayStation 2, the core went to XBox 360. Xbox One was a flaming dumpster on roller skates, the core goes back to PlayStation. The Core WILL move if they feel like they aren't respected. And right now, they aren't. What Sony stands to lose here are the sales of Indie and 3rd party games. And that's going to sting A LOT. While I applaud Sony telling their employees to shut ******** up (Where has that been over the last 10 years?), this isn't the time for that. You are telling your core fans who have been with you for 30 years that they are nothing more to you than a transaction number. This won't end the way you think it will, Sony.
