    @InfinityWard Just fix the cheating and hacking please. Hopefully you won’t chat ban for stupid ****.

    @NotUrAvrageDad @CallofDuty I started playing the PC port of the first Black Ops game and was having issues with crashing as well. Running the game as administrator fixed my crashing issue for that game, so could be worth the try on the other titles as well.

    My main problem is you will sit here and complain about cod. Yet you just spent $15 on a 15 year old game.. bingo… wonder why we have the trash we have… you continue to buy their product. $0 spent on cod in 6+ years and counting. They have no reason to try. You keep handing them money at every opportunity

    @JHub @CallofDuty Its not gonna change the root problems of lack of a skill gap compared to old cods, mainly the skill floor. Theres a reason cs is still played 20+ years layer

    @TyrelltellyGG @Centurion_Sonn @bordeauxyoutube Got my boy up to an 80 starting my sophomore season. Really not even an issue. Just spend XP on tackle, speed,acceleration, strength, agility, COD and he can run with anyone. Upgrading man, zone, IQ don't really do much since you're controlling him anyway.

    @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 🤮

    @MainEventTV_AKA @SnakierRaptor So I haven’t bought this game bc I don’t care for COD but after looking into it, there isn’t any “hackers” it was a glitch in the game Thats easily fixable tbh

    @CallofDuty @Treyarch you are one or two updates away from the greatest thing you have ever created with the BO2 Port. Please update the problems

    @QNDZYcom I’ll stand by it, this game was the closest you get to the old school cod games compared MW2019 and future releases. Ubi owning this game made for a decent amount of its problems.

    @_The_GOAT_3 @Ko6ys__ @CallofDuty Servers are hacked to **** and game in its launch form is incredibly broken and allows for some very overpowered ****

    @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.

    New fraud by delivery executives? One of our customers received the same order twice. First delivery: Our actual order. Second delivery: Different product, same shipping label, and the delivery executive collected the COD amount again. Now the customer is asking us for a refund for the second package which wasn't even ours. If this is happening at scale, it's a serious issue. Has anyone else faced something similar with COD shipments?

    @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.

    modern warfare 4 better not suck. it doesn't have to be spectacular. but really needs to be better than the past few issues of CoD

    @BlancheyTV The mors was broken. But yeah longbow aftermarket part was one epic thing from week 2. So what’s the different here? Means MWIII is the worst cod by this logic no? Hehe

    @Mesmeratize_ If you played w notmal humans who all don’t play the cod lien none of us do I’m sure you’d have 0 problems but somehow you need ppl 100x that only play certain games or cheat

    @TheGameVerse bro the graphics for its time were UNHINGED. look at the lighting, the reflections on the car, the debris physics and that camera switch into the vehicle? 0 frame drops. Smooth af. modern COD could NEVER. We traded this for 120GB updates and skill-based lag

    This might be the last time I’m buying any cod that gets ported over to PlayStation. Making us pay $40 for a broken old cod game that is so unplayable. ******* fix ur **** @Treyarch

    @charlieINTEL A new cod and the same errors. Why so much smoke? Why so much pollution?

  • Bennett0404
    Michael Bennett (@Bennett0404) reported

    @Frizzeyes If they completely remove visually recoil and the gun smoke we might be cooking. The game looks graphically better and it’s on a new engine, movement looks decent. If they iron out the other issue we could have a good CoD but I just don’t see them fixing everything to that level

    Yo @Activision @ATVIAssist @IronGalaxy! When the hell you gonna fix the crashing issues with the Black Ops 1 PS5 port hmm? Gettin' reall sick and tired of my game crashing everytime i wanna back out of a lobby or change game modes! Not good enough...

    @PNoahj @EvieFrye1820 @CoDClipped Ruin what? lol been playing claw for 10+ years and never felt anything if this was such an insane issue half the cod league wouldn’t be playing claw, maybe if you’re weak and have dogshit genetics it would be a problem? but most don’t

  • Bennett0404
    Michael Bennett (@Bennett0404) reported

    @Bebop2Steady @JHub @InfinityWard Well yeah that’s the problem. You’ll never be able to please everyone. Trying to listen to a community this large is impossible because they all want different things and then they try to implement some of them from both sides and it ends up being a disaster.

    @CallofDuty @IronGalaxy Why can't my friend JOIN the party in Black Ops 1? Let alone NOT be in the same team when partied up? Please fix this issue
