I get a crash maybe once every couple weeks now, usually only after a particularly long (3 hours or more) play session.

I haven't had crash issues since shortly after Season 1. I did what I did with Cold War and turned off motion blur, I don't know if that actually *does* anything or if it's just like a coincidence that helps me. No idea if you can do that on Console.

Do you have the game on Steam? Yeah it happens to be an extremely common issue. You have to launch the game from Blizzard's launcher instead Steam to fix most of it.
 
I wish the raids let you find teams. Really sucks you have to know 2 other people and also have them be online when you are able to play.

Fuck me, what's the point of having on Steam then?

Tell me about it

Me and my coworkers just tried to play it. They're kind of fucking speds who have to run head first into everything just shooting up the place, can barely follow any orders. Still, it wasn't that bad until the final code part where nobody could manage to stay alive long enough to get their code through. I can't really figure out if they were being retarded or if they just made this whole sequence needlessly frustrating. Infinitely spawning armored soldiers and bomb drones on top of gas? Is this mode only for the most die hard sweats or what?
 
I wish they made a tacticool version of Cold War's Outbreak mode.

Played a couple of matches on MWII Shipment. It's shit. Can't see shit, my shotgun somehow doesn't kill the guy who is at one meter in front of me, retards running around with the riot shield on their backs...
It's a shame that the PvE is also bad. Spec Ops limited to 2 players max, can't even play solo if you want to look for intels or learn more about each map.

It took us about 4.5 hours to complete the raid. I’ve got a decent team who work together really well and we had a fuck of a time with it. Especially the last part with the codes and then trying to stay alive long enough to escape. Fucking ridiculous and annoying. It’s definitely not just you or your sped coworkers. There’s no reason for it to be that difficult, not really looking forward to the next one. The game is getting progressively more sweaty.

The lack of persistent lobbies has killed the ability to meet regular teammates via the game itself. After MW2019 hit 200 GB, all my friend uninstalled it, and I lost my interest as well.

This the first COD I've owned (free in some Newegg promo) and not touched the MP. The single player was so incredibly bland that it sparked zero desire to see any more of it.

I bitched about this in unpopular opinions, but Acitblizz refusing to put solos in DMZ has fucking killed all interest in that mode for me, which is about 95% of my playtime on that game. I thought the 'Everything must be co-op' fad rightfully died in the 2000's, but between making the one fun mode in their game un-fucking-playable for solos (which runs into the same issue that Yours Truly and xXx had), and making Warzone require those stupid fucking duo-gulags, this game is just worthless to me.

Who thought it was a good idea to incorporate Hulu like UI elements in a first person shooter? MWII feels like a downgrade from MW2019 in every way possible. Story tries to be bombastic but ends up generic, multiplayer is unbalanced based on SBMM and Warzone 2.0 has a confusing progression.

Also, Activision couldn't be bother to patch Cold War but allow it to advertise MWII in front of your face?
 
Are yall still playing MWII? I got like 40 hours in it and I am completely burnt out. Then I started watching all the videos on the SBMM drama and I completely lost all interest. It is all but confirmed at this point that they have skill based damage, latency, and hit detection. They also now have issues where people get shadow banned for using programs that control mice and keyboards like razer synapse. They will also shadow ban you for getting more than 10 kills in warzone 2.

These games are so tampered with it is frustrating. What happened to the days of get gud or get off? Everything is a sweat fest catered to the lowest common denominator.

SBMM exists and im pretty sure it does track accuracy but everything else is pure schizo theories. SBMM sucks but im sick of hearing the complaints agasint it becasue those who complain about it effectively dig their own graves becasue if you truly want to be a weed gamer who has fun you can play shitty and get those lobbies. This is not just a COD thing at this point but a lot of COD players love to make excuses.

Even your argument of get gud then complaining about sweats is an oxymoron. Thats simply how gamers are nowadays SBMM ot not. As I play games that still user server browsers and its the same shit sweats wanting to pubstomp and recoiling in fear if someone of equal skill exists and they leave the server.

What you do when you get put into a "sweat" grouping

1. Run a class with

Primary: Shield
Secondary: Akimbo P890s with FT Steel Silencer, 1MW Pistol Laser, Bruen Express Trigger, and 12 Mag,
Lethal: Thermite or Molotov
Non Lethal: Smoke, Teargas or Flash
Perks: Extra Tactical, Battle Hardened, Resupply, Overclock
Field Upgrade: Smoke Drone

2. Just proceed to spam the fuck out of your grenades as soon as you respawn from death, then just run around going apeshit with your P890s. When your field upgrade kicks in drop smoke, and once Overclock activates save up two of them to double dip on the smoke drops.

Sweats get so fucking pissed even if they are racking up the kills, especially in shipment. Sometimes if they kill you quickly enough you can toss enough Smoke/Teargas to crash the game for multiple people.

"Server based always online" games are retarded because not only are they used for political censorship by purposely doing shit like this, but you don't even own what you are paying for and the game will cease to exist as soon as the company servers go down for any reason.

Wouldnt be surprised if the "COD ELITE" pointless subscription service makes a comeback with the paypig tards running the show these days.

There is enough evidence to say it isn't a theory. Clip after clip after clip of weird shit keeps popping up. There clips where someone gets killed in 2 melee hits after getting 4+ melee hits on the other guy. Or people mag dumping someone only to get 2 shot. There was also talk about aim assist just turning off randomly mid match if you were doing too good. People have reported weird issues with latency where they will do really good and then suddenly they get massive packet loss until they die a few times or someone even better than them joins the match and then the packet loss vanishes. How many coincidences do we need before it stops being a coincidence? There is a reason MWII went from 500k players to 100k within a few weeks on steam. Games in general just feel more and more like shit as time passes.

Not to mention all the other stuff not related to SBMM. The UI sucks, cut scenes you can't skip when you open the game, garbage battle pass, missing game modes, shit maps like border crossing, the slow phasing out of K/D and such, the shitty bundles.
