Good. They used and modified the assets and code that didn't belong to them.
This is Battlefront 3/Galaxy in Turmoil all over again.

This morning the xlabs project got a C&D. xlabs allowed you to play MW2 (the real one), Ghosts, and Advanced Warfare using dedicated servers and official mod support. MW2 (and probably Ghosts and AW) on Steam has been plagued with RCE exploits and cheating forever and now the client that allows people to play those older titles safely is now gone. I tried taking my mind off it playing BO2 via plutonium and it just made me think about it even more.

I don't play them, but if they're going after them it means it's definitely time to dip out of CoD.
They have no intention of improving if they feel threatened by fan works and their own older games.

They were distributing Activision IP. Not protecting your IP can have its own legal consequences.

You really take the stance that free mods that don't have a chance in hell of making a profit should be shitcanned?

I'm pretty this it still falls under this being an IP issue, even if it's tenuous at best. At the end of the day, this fan mod would compete with MW2, and Activision is already scared of losing their whales to remasters of their own games.

We'll never know exactly why, but large corporations have people on staff whose job it is to find pirate websites and send out C&Ds. It may be nothing more than these guys' number came up.

Because the people who work within the industry are afraid of their own shadows.

Activision pulling a Take 2 with legacy title support. Quite a shame.

Damn I just realized I have like 40% of the battle pass to go, and I have absolutely no desire to play the game.
At least Cold War kept me hooked until Season 5

As with many big name companies, especially with their IPs. They print money.

I'm seeing videos pop up saying Cold War has been compromised and people are booting/ddosing/stealing IPs from players.

Wonderful security, Activision.
I hate now that camo challenges are linked with consecutive kill streaks.

Charlie Intel says this affects all platforms. I bet such exploits would be used on Gunfight for "ez wins, gg."

Nick's opinions aren't a surprise, the dude is a veteran and attempted BUD/S.
