What do you think - can Activision make a successful comeback, or is the silence too deafening? As always, let me know your thoughts in the comments below! 👇
@xreve_ tbh no. I was highly skeptical of Warzone when they announced it and said it would kiII CoD. And look where we are today. I'll be honest I despise Battle Royales (except for Apex and honestly Blackout even though I've only played a little of the latter) and I especially don't like Warzone. Part of that is because Activision started shoving Warzonified versions of stuff in other modes (Cold War Zombies is a great example of this. What Treyarch had with that game was a good basis but was horribly flawed imo) and being shocked when Warzone players only stuck to Warzone. Warzone and CoD in general have been selling well the past 5-6 years that Activision has pretty much gotten complacent.
Activision can not ever make a comeback. They have been doing this for years and it will just not stand in the future. They made their own bed now they have to sleep in it
Hell no I don't think I can ever touch another actvison game unless the ceo is replaced by someone who's known to be honest I'm tired of this fucking manipulation
their plan is probably “stay silent until ppl stop questioning, or until we make the system so advanced it can keep you hooked but not quite frustrated or suspicious.” my advice is quit now before they master your psychology.
They’ll stay silent until people actually take them to court. Their greed is astounding, and they seem to think people are too ignorant to notice. Unfortunately, it makes sense-if a significant portion of the COD player base has a relatively low IQ, they’re easy to exploit. It’s a smart business strategy, I’ll admit-it makes them a lot of money. But smart people are starting to ask the right questions, and they’re aware of this. Why do they silence so many people and enforce NDAs? Why? Because if the truth came out, it could potentially collapse the entire franchise. They’d have to pack it up and move on. I’ve got a ton of video ideas, but honestly, I feel a bit overwhelmed right now. The more I connect the dots, the clearer it all becomes. Every day, there’s something new to uncover, and it just reinforces how badly they’ve messed up. For a multi-billion-dollar AAA company, their silence speaks volumes. I haven’t gone deep into full-scale research yet, just sticking to what I can see-but I’m starting to think the blame might shift from Activision to Microsoft. MS bought Activision, and while we’ve been used to Activision’s practices for years, this year’s release, BO6, seems to have been rushed in just four months, not four years. Why? My theory is that Microsoft didn’t buy Activision just for the games-they wanted player data. Combine that with patents giving them access to peripherals, and you can see where this is headed. It’s no longer just Activision "wanting" your data-it’s Microsoft. I’ll leave you with one question to think about: What do all of these platforms have in common? COD BO6 can be played on Steam, Battle.net, the Xbox App (Game Pass), Xbox, and PS5. There’s one clue here, one that might help you see the bigger picture. Can you figure it out?
CoD strayed away from redemption in 2019 when they started revisiting past titles but with worse game mechanics. They tried to capture lightning in a bottle twice, while lacking the required vision and talent to improve upon the games. They began catering to an audience that was NOT their loyal fans at the same time. The message was loud and clear. They want pay piggies in a safe barn. The old school players have no place in their game. Instead of fighting back with their wallets, the hardcores just complained and continued to play. Big corporations only understand money. To them, everyone was handing them big stacks of approval.
The issue is they obsess over data, engagement etc but it’s not organic. I remember playing cod for hours at a time before the current system. Now I cannot play longer than a hour tops they should listen to the feedback from players but they won’t.
I only played one game for this video, and even though it was one of the "better" games and experiences I have had with BO6, I had to leave. I just couldn’t take it anymore. Was my first game in 2 weeks? I am running out of gameplay for my videos and am thinking of diving back into Battlefield 4 and/or V.
Exactly. And they probably won’t address it-there’s no reason for them to. I just hope that, at the very least, some things start to improve. It would be great to see them actually make meaningful changes for the better for once.
@xreve_ Been hoping for that for entirely too long. I finally got off that hamster wheel, and I feel good about it. Marvel Rivals is fun, and I can catch up on games I've missed while playing COD.
Let me help out the braindead here. Human beings have to stand up and make a stand when things go too far. Example: covid. That was tyranny and you idiots sat around and did nothing! Same thing over the years w cod...you just sat back and took it. It's all a test and most normies are failing miserably.
That would be awesome! I cannot wait for the next Battlefield. After I decided to leave COD for good after BO2, I started playing Battlefield again, and I have enjoyed it much more ever since.
Sad to watch the best game out there kill itself. Don’t think they are going to adjust anything until another developer creates a clone of this game minus all the garbage. It’s almost like they are doing it in purpose.
I always come to the same conclusion: someone needs to create a better shooter than Call of Duty, with genuine matchmaking. It makes you wonder-are these issues intentional for some reason? It wouldn’t make sense to keep paying employees to work on the game if the goal is for it to fail every year. What’s the point? A quick cash grab while the game flops annually? Anyway, thanks for your comment!
@@xreve_ The games may be a flop in our eyes, but Activision keeps on posting record profit. Nothing changes until people stop paying. Thing is, the CoD community wont stop paying. The few of us that have stopped have already been replaced by fortnite kids growing up.
@ I know! I have been addicted to Hardcore Search and Destroy since the 2000’s. I can’t find anything that gives the same feeling, but again you are correct it’s only an opinion!
Activision stays silent because they know people will keep buying their bundles, passes, and soon event passes. Content creators that complain about bundles yet proceed to buy them are the biggest offenders. Giving Activision your money doesn't say "I'm fed up with the state of the game" whatsoever, and more people need to see that in order for this franchise to change. That or some major competition from other games.
@soundrogue4472 That's due to game pass but doesn't fully matter when people are out buying cosmetics that outmatch the price of the game once you buy 2 or 3 separate bundles
It’s clear to see for all that have critical thinking that Activision dare not speak about any one factor of the system that makes up the games criteria for match making because admittance to anything would open a can of worms & I’m almost certain that there are patents & systems in place that aren’t above board legally. If accusations were being thrown at anyone & you know you was playing by the book you would defend yourself till the bitter end for the sake of your name, respect & integrity. The wording used in the white paper when they finally addressed SBMM told me everything. They didn’t answer the questions we all had, instead they rephrased the questions & applied the answers that would make them look innocent… they think the gaming player base are stupid, not realising that 99% of games are based on pattern recognition, identifying the problems that face us & finding the solutions to those problems. Us gamers are highly accustomed to that now, the corporate industry may be able to work those tricks in the commercial area but in the gaming stratosphere it’s not gonna drop the same… we’re a different kind of beast 1 million %
MW2019 felt bits of SBMM, MW2 starzed feeling artificual and l7ke something is messing with me, did not buy MW3 only tried Warzone and felt even more wierd things like guns would fight against me not to hit enemys etc., BO6 only played the beta and quit immediatly because it felt real off... I was there since CoD 2 on the Xbox360 with friends playing splitscreen but MW2019 is the last playable enjoyable game at least for me, it does not feel like something is messing with you and our inputs do what you want and think... RIP CoD
I just want to have back the good old times. They would just need to remake the old titles and give us better servers and a working anti cheat. Problem should be solved. Sometimes you wonder if they did it on purpose. The veterans all claim it is feeling very off, while others say it’s „normal“ and we got a „skill issue“. That’s so wild to me.
@@xreve_honestly to me it seems like people who were never that good are finally winning and they can't accept the reality that the game has manipulated the outcome. Don't get me wrong I've never been that good at call of duty and I haven't even played in probably a decade outside of a game or two of black ops 2 zombies here and there, but if everyone who's been playing for 15 years says it's weird, all the evidence says it's weird, and the company keeps speaking without actually saying anything, something's probably up
Been there since Cod2 and splitscreen lobby... played cod4 on pc and xbox360.. all the following titels, skiped only some like adv. warfare and vanguards... and yes it is like you say, the new games just feel of and wierd... I started wondering if I just got older and worse but when playing other or older titels I feel and see that it is not me getting bad, no it is the game f**king with me...
For anyone who wonder and test what humanized bots can do, try bf3, venice unleashed fun bots mod. I tried a setting, when I set bots best AI but drop their damage to 0.20, I can recreate shoot first die first sitution for bots which you get in COD.
I’m almost positive this damage modification is being used when you down a player & the Phalanx ai downs you before you can finish. It’s like clockwork now, the ai have become too strong, too self aware & it’s too obvious, so everyone’s feeling it.
I HAVE REAL EVIDENCE 7:40 you said about evidence. your SOOO on point brother. keep spreading awareness Elon Musk was right on ai and regulators need to take action deceptive to consumers
Love it! I recently bought myself a Nintendo DS Lite since my brothers "borrowed" mine years ago. Now I’m reliving the nostalgia playing Pokémon Platinum on an R4 chip, just like back in the day. It feels so different now! What games did you play on the PS2? I remember getting mine for Christmas, and for the longest time, I couldn’t figure out why my games weren’t saving. Turns out, my dad and I didn’t know you needed a memory card for save slots. Good times, hahaha! I mainly played Need for Speed on the PS2-Underground 2, Most Wanted, and Carbon. I LOVE Carbon. Honestly, we need an NFS Carbon remaster ASAP! So many great titles from back then just disappeared for no reason. Meanwhile, COD has been hanging on by a thread for years with their mediocre releases.
It's too far gone. By the time they realise they've pushed everyone away and fixed it no one will play anymore. I feel like the massive player dropoff is irreversible at this point. That 49% that dropped off wont come back. It sucks but we all have to realise that cod isn't ever gonna be like it was back in the cod 4 to bo2 era. Its basically over for us ogs. They managed to sucker me into buying bo6. First cod ive bought in 3 years and i wish i never bought it. Id take it back to the store but I won't get a full refund so now it just sits on my shelf collecting dust. Would rather it do that than pass that awful game onto someone else.
Yesterday morning for me it was at -42% in total, now we are at almost -48%. It really hurts if you look at it being a trend. People always come back and hope it’s better. But it’s not. Guess this year was finally enough.
The franchise is dead. The amount of bs they did to the player is just insane. Rigged matchmaking, bots and even invasion of your computer. The bots are to a point where they are undetectable to people who don't pick up on weird coincidences. They game is so well made to hide the bots and make every aspect of weird gameplay excusable. If you wonder why is it that these players (bots) always know where I'm at. Well that can be excused by uav, pulse and recon specialty. Why does it take so many bullets to kill someone but they kill me in one. The excuse is netcode, lag desync when in reality the game is nerfing you. People honestly believe it's a overwhelming amount of sweats in the game when in reality they are mostly bots.
Honestly, the competitive players, their movement and aim are just on another level. I admire that, really. Being that good with a controller is insane. These people will always be better than me, I will not deny that. You can tell they've spent hours perfecting their skills. However, when you watch some of the kill cams, these "sweaty" players often have stiff movement that looks unnatural, almost like they have wallhacks, and they never miss a shot once they're on you. It's crazy how delusional some people are. We've had bots in games for over a decade now, and it blows my mind how many people just don’t see it. These bots are now running AI in real time, allowing them to adapt instantly. We even have patents that indicate that this is happening. They are not being transparent for a reason.
@@branchoffbush3838 I am waiting what the community comes up with. Need more insights and opinions on that. Feel like I dive into some patents again, there is one that I really think is interesting, forgot how it’s called. Btw have you replied to me on Foolys video? If so, I dont see anything. If you don’t mind, just for sharing info, you can add me on DC: ravy420 - no need to, just better way for me to communicate with you, because the stuff you mention is really interesting!
The AI bots will showcase skins and bundles from the store also lol "ooooh I want that skin", makes money. I have been experiencing skill based timer to enter a game for 2 months now lol, probably a bug but who knows. Solo or in a party my timer freezes at the 8 second countdown to start the match. My party enters the match and can cap 2 flags before my timer unfreezes (It is not my internet). So, I back out of the lobby or game now, it is not fair for me or my team. Yes, they need to earn the trust back but they won't apologize or change. They also need to abolish cheating streamer protection in streamer mode and 1 phone call unbanned privileges. Doesn't make sense to buy anything with a yearly release and they don't port items bought over to the new game and we know they can. I will not play on 2025 launch unless there is change and still I will wait to see if changed stayed or just a PR stunt like Ricochet for Vanguard launch.
Just the other day I played nuketown domination and the score was 150-100 and mind u I had got my harp and streaks dominating the game and then randomly my teammates left mid game and the other team came back and one because they never refilled the lobby left with a 2v6 😂
@@vee416YT I’ve never seen so many people leave a lobby before-maybe 3 at most. But 2v6? That’s just crazy. In the clip, you can see that we were actually winning at first. I’ll admit, I wasn’t playing the objective at all, but somehow we still managed to lose. It’s like the tide suddenly shifts, and if you’re not playing the objective yourself, it feels almost guaranteed that you’ll lose-because you always seem to be the only one playing it. That’s why I’ve refused to believe these are real players since launch. If bots are programmed to manipulate player engagement, distract them in certain areas, or disrupt gameplay, it would make sense that some don’t really play the objective. At the same time, there are clearly different types of bots. For example, in this match, there was one enemy player with an insanely high objective score. Strangely, he was incredibly hard for me to kill and always showed up when I thought I had an advantage due to spawn flips. It’s the same pattern with “Bongmeister,” who killed me repeatedly-it’s not just coincidence. That’s deliberate, and people need to wake up to it. This stuff fascinates me, though, and I’d love to learn how these bots are programmed. They always behave in predictable patterns, doing strange things in specific areas of the map. Nuketown, for example, would be a great map for experimenting. I need to come up with something to test this further.
I saw the stuff you posted and Fooly covering it in his video-great content, haha! The rabbit hole gets even deeper with this. I knew it was in their patents, but I had no idea you could find evidence of it running in the background. That is insane!
@@xreve_ took late nights, but yea. if you even see some of the comments on foolys vid, even the community is 60/40 and 50/50 on the topic. what is that remnant of? Say the player by player basis modifications happen, one person experiences it, the other doesn't. Goes to show the extent of that system reaching youtube.
@@xreve_ the patents itself says the software that would modify the game in real time could be apart of a game application. I did just that. As that system has peripherals 140, has camera access or a reach for when when available.
@@branchoffbush3838 It's all starting to make more sense now. I appreciate your efforts! I've always wondered why the community is so divided, and I've mentioned it in my videos. Ricochet made me think a lot-why force it on PC and claim console players benefit? PCs perform better, so it makes sense to run background processes that adjust things in real-time. And why can PS5 players turn off crossplay without issues? I've been seeing that more lately. People saying their experience is not rigged at all. Makes you wonder ..
Another banger video!! Also have you seen the find of unauthorized use of webcams by bo6 program on pc's and laptops? What's your thought on that real or bs?
Thanks for your feedback, glad you liked it! Yeah, I’ve read about it. I know they have several things patented, nothing new there. The difference now is that someone’s actually been able to prove this stuff is running in the background when you open COD. It's the same with my argument about bots, EOMM, and no SBMM. We have NPC patents. Do I have 100% proof they’re in the game? No. But I’m just trying to explain how the patent works and how it could relate to what’s going on. It’s definitely real, though. It could explain why your aim sometimes feels off-they have access to everything. You have to understand, having access to all that data and using it to create player profiles is incredibly valuable. Data is always valuable, and I’m really suspicious about what they’re doing with it. There’s zero transparency. What they're doing would never, ever be possible in Germany, not even close. Now, people are asking for their profile data, but it doesn’t really matter. They were smart to implement this years ago-it’s not a new feature-but they need to allow people to see what data they've collected. The real problem is we don’t know what they’re doing with it. I’ll wait to see what else comes to light, but I have my suspicions, especially when it comes to crossplay and why PS5 lets you turn it off. The way Microsoft is using cloud-based AI computing for servers… the rabbit hole just got a lot deeper. It is very interesting to see that the "theories" the community have, are not being debunked anymore, since more and more issues arise and these guys just keep quiet as if everything was alright, it is insane. People do not understand how crazy the whole situation is at the moment. They do not adress anything, they just come up with their PR nonsense and gaslight the community. As a AAA studio with billions of dollars. Hilarious!
I have never been shadow banned or felt so manipulated ever until bo6. I got my first ever shadow ban thanksgiving, 13 days later I get free and only 2 games later I got shadow ban again. Im going on 20 days now into my second shadow ban and ive given up, so frustrating.
You're soo kind! Which makes you naive! Almost delusional! You can, safely, forget it! They're busy dismantling the game! And it's at a point that even if they tried to put it in a state of the past, it's impossible! They've done irreversible damage! This is the case! Believe it!
I just logged on to blackops now and I was in a game?! Then backed itself out communication to the server was lost message but a false of me at the end game screen 😢😢
I think Cod will come back with a different formula with different management. When the game dies, all the higher ups will retire, and newer people will take over and I would like to see a FTP live service game instead of a yearly release it seems like the games are good after a while but get reset with the yearly release.
Been playing for a few days and noticed all of this. If they continue to do so, it will definitely be the death of the game; another game will just have to come out and fill the gap.
Brudi wir müssen das boykottieren das die spielerzahlen noch stärker sinken oder wenn man spielt keine skins kaufen. Das alles ist nicht mehr lustig und einfach nur noch gruselig. Mal gucken wie das cod wird was dieses Jahr rauskommen soll….
Das Spiel kann man schon seit Jahren in die Tonne stecken. Ich würde sogar Skins kaufen, wenn das Spiel gut wäre und die Skins ein bisschen mehr wie Soldaten und weniger wie ein Fortnite-Abklatsch aussehen würden. Lustig ist das auf keinen Fall, das sollte einem wirklich Sorgen machen. Entweder wird es noch schlechter als dieses Jahr, oder sie ändern beim nächsten Mal wirklich alles .. was ich jedoch stark bezweifle!
@@xreve_ja wir können nur abwarten so in bo6 ist so viel an Algorithmen die das Spiel auf Wege beeinflussen die kein normaler casual jemals verstehen wird. Ich spawne bekomme hitmarker oder mein 4 Mann Stack bekommt auf nuketown 3 min kontinuierlich aufs maul bis als hätte jemand einen Schalter umgelegt und wir auf einmal die sind die alles schneller droppen. Ich denke in dem Spiel ist so viel ki und es wird so viel getestet das sie in den nächsten teilen den großen Aktionären Honig um den Mund schmieren.
That would be amazing, I’d be all in for that! Of course, I’d have my doubts, but if they really remade an older COD with a new engine and revamped maps-without the algorithms and bundles-it could bring back the golden era of gaming for me. That’s what gaming used to be about. What we have now is a nightmare: it’s all about bundles in the store and microtransactions everywhere. Back then, you played the game. Now, it’s just about browsing a store while the algorithm in the background tries to convince you to buy bundles.
I am so sorry but the words: "Patents" and "Alienate" are pronounced really differently, i recommend looking them up to hear how they should be pronounced. But the video and information is a banger, i hope they open the door a little, it reminds me kind of what epic games is doing to rocket league and fall guys. Just wave after wave of microtransaction update with no real light at the end of the tunnel.
Well, I’d say that’s more of the British pronunciation. But you’re right-it probably seems odd since I use an American accent after spending over a year abroad. I learned Oxford English in school and studied in the UK, so some things have gotten a bit mixed up I guess. Thank you, though! I really appreciate it-it means a lot! These days, it’s all about the microtransactions and keeping you hooked for as long as possible. It is really bad ..
This it's only the beginning if you value your time and your sanity stop playing this and only pay 1 month of game pass when the next game launches enjoy it and forget about it Always the same when the first season launches the games brokes and all the original art vision of the game it's affected by anime skins
There is no need for them to talk about it. They sell games, bundles and battles pass for COD to many players in the game. Casuals players buy stuff and they know it with proven data. And casuals out number competitive or diehard players. This is a corporate company that needs to up their numbers each year to satisfy investors. Either deal with it, find a new game to play, get a girlfriend or play a sport.
You are right, in the end it is all for investors and PR. Not for the players or the community. Why care about the community? They will come back either way. But the shareholders, that are the ones corporations obviously care the most about. And I do not blame them. It is just that they do not care at all about their community, which is quite sad!
Great video. But hear me out (and I acknowledge this is very pessimistic but I honestly feel it’s true): Most players (casual players) don’t care about manipulation. They just want to play and win. If an algorithm is helping weak players those people are actually ok with it.
Thank you! I completely agree. They do not feel it, and if they have doubts, they probably do not care enough. This is how they make their money, and it’s why they fixed 2-boxing-I get it, but it is wrong. People should have the option to play with bots or not, and that would solve the issue. Let the rest of us enjoy the authentic experience without any rigged matchmaking algorithms.
@ Yep- you’re 100% right. Instead of transparency they are taking advantage of the points you just made. Look- nothing gets changed until 1 of 2 things happens: 1) The profits plummet 2) Legal action is take . Remember loot boxes? Well they persisted until someone file a suit saying under-aged gambling was unethical. The problem is that not enough people are willing to leverage legal means to advocate for transparency. For example, if society valued mental health within the gaming landscape enough, it would be feasible to think that someone could file against the negative implications of non-transparent manipulation. But most gamers are not lawyers and or not raising their concerns to that level. When that changes, we will start seeing companies act slightly more ethical.
No offence, but when you say “lightning quick” matchmaking is so far from the truth. Older games snap you into lobbies instantly. There were no bots in those multiplayers. BO6 i play solo and it takes forever to find me matches despite being hard wired while playing and playing solo. The EOMM is so predictable that I stomp for like 5ish matches, then immediately after packet burst match 6-10 grenades curving to hit you, ghost bullets out of no where etc. Im not saying AI bots dont exist, what I’m saying is, the more nefarious thing would be them wanting us to believe it’s AI bots when in reality the game itself is the ai bot that actively goes out of its way to screw us over. If that makes any sense.
The matchmaking still is quick. There are game without these matchmaking system or better ones, and it takes up to 3-4mins. And yes exactly, the whole game is ran by AI. Every little aspect, people are just not familiar with patents and algorithms.
The biggest issue with Warzone is that the developers have nerfed many of the tools casual players relied on to compete with highly skilled, dedicated players. Vehicles, helicopters, RPGs, shotguns, and melee attacks-key elements that helped less experienced players secure kills-have been significantly weakened. As a result, many casual players have left the game for alternatives like Fortnite. Although SBMM (Skill-Based Matchmaking) was introduced to make matches fairer, Warzone has failed to attract new players because the game remains overly complex. Features like contracts and killstreaks could benefit from streamlining, and vehicles, RPGs, and melee attacks should be restored to their former power, as seen in Warzone 1. To make matters worse, several new features have been added that disproportionately favor highly skilled players. Zip-lines, redeployment balloons, and the recently introduced Omni-Movement system cater to experienced players who have the time and dedication to master these mechanics. If these self-destructive features were removed, it might even allow for the removal of SBMM, creating a more organic and balanced experience. Weapon balancing is another critical issue. Ground loot weapons often feel vastly inferior to loadout weapons, making the game less accessible and enjoyable for new and average players. This imbalance further alienates those who don’t have the resources or skills to dominate the game. Instead of leveling the playing field, these changes have widened the skill gap, discouraging new and casual players from sticking around. Average players are also leaving because they stand no chance against the highly skilled, “no-life” gamers who dominate lobbies. What’s left are lobbies filled with hardcore players, but even their numbers are shrinking. If this trend continues, Warzone risks losing its entire player base. To revitalize Warzone, the developers need to focus on making the game more accessible, fun, and balanced for everyone-not just the most skilled or dedicated players.
You need to go play another game cause you ain’t getting the big picture here. Everything you said is irrelevant when every single facet of this game is rigged for a certain outcome. What good is the meta when they’re playing you agianst veteran ai meant to “challenge” you
@Tuffbruvvv After five years of playing Warzone, I recently gave Fortnite a try, and I’m honestly having the time of my life. The simplicity of the game is what makes it so appealing and accessible to everyone. Without loadouts, players have to adapt to what they find on the ground, which levels the playing field and makes the experience feel fairer. This approach also prevents veterans from abusing meta weapons, ensuring that skill and strategy matter more than just knowing the ‘best’ loadout. Removing mechanics like ziplines and redeployment balloons could work similarly in Warzone by limiting how much highly skilled players can move around the entire map. Fortnite shows that a game doesn’t need overly complex mechanics or artificially created challenges to keep players engaged-it just needs to be fun and balanced. If Warzone could return to some of its simpler roots it might win back a lot of the casual player base that has left."
@Tuffbruvvv I completely agree-it often feels like the system isn’t just matching skill levels but actively working against players to maintain some artificial balance. This kind of manipulation takes away from the authenticity of competition, making victories feel less earned and losses more frustrating. After five years of playing Warzone, I recently tried Fortnite for the first time, and I’m having the time of my life. The simplicity of Fortnite is its biggest strength. There are no custom loadouts, so you’re forced to adapt to whatever you find on the ground. This prevents veterans from abusing overpowered meta weapons. Warzone could learn a lot from this. Removing mechanics like ziplines and redeployment balloons what would limit a highly skilled players to dominate the entire map. These changes would make matches feel more balanced and enjoyable for casual and average players alike. If these fundamental issues were addressed, the manipulative systems like SBMM could be removed entirely. A more organic matchmaking experience would allow for fair competition without players feeling like the game is working against them.
Just be honest, call of duty is known for in video games but what is the back behind the scenes if a player was cheater in a video game 999 percentage of the time people want to play for game for legit it players go get rigged to matches and. Aimboting wall hacking rage hackers if call of duty have $1 billion company they can’t even fix the anti-cheat because they too damn lazy to do so they can’t get rid of the hackers because they game anyway and we can’t beat the hackers between their devices so players take action we quit in the game and we stand on that so other players move on to different games a lot of people were agree on this but hacking it’s not cool so the game so we wanted to play is for legit 💯 I grew up in the early 2000s since since call of duty since of existing, but here’s why if they need to change, they need to get rid of the hackers or the game cooked 💯💯
I get your frustration, and you're absolutely right that cheating has been a big issue in Call of Duty for a while now. It's hard to enjoy the game when you're constantly up against aimbots, wall hacks, and rage hackers, especially when they make it impossible to play fairly. It’s also tough to see a massive company like Activision not prioritize fixing the anti-cheat system when they have the resources to do so. It feels like they’re more focused on pushing out bundles and microtransactions rather than addressing the core issues that hurt the player experience. Unfortunately, a lot of players are feeling the same way. If they don’t do something about it soon, they risk driving away even more of their player base. Hopefully, they’ll realize that fixing the game and ensuring a fair, fun environment should be their top priority, instead of letting hackers take over. It is over for now. Took some time for people to wake up.
@xreve_ patents were for all the games they own, including offline ones....if there were bots we would know by now, it's 2025 man,we have the internet but thanks for your cospiracy theory sir
@@tempestzz5682 I wonder why patents explain how they use NPCs to mimic real players, and that these NPCs are in your lobbies with humans and are trained at the same time in this environment. Maybe you could do some research yourself and not argue with this non sense. The patents tell exactly what’s going, and it’s not for offline modes. It’s for cooperative and competitive modes. Go figure.
I did not play the beta. I only heard about the game a few days before its release and did not even know MWIII was a thing. The last COD I bought was BO2, which was over a decade ago. I am not trying to complain, but rather raise questions and critically engage with the issues we have been facing with COD for years. This video highlights where you are coming from, and I think most people just do not know any better. But this time, it is pretty clear something is going on. Hope this gives you some more context!
How am I complaining? Do some of you just read the title and jump straight into the comments with nonsense? Regardless, thanks for the engagement-it helps with the algorithm. I’d argue that my content is quite different from most channels trash-talking COD. There’s nothing wrong with sharing opinions your way, but I approach things differently. I raise questions, ask the right ones, and try to see the bigger picture. It’s not about having too much free time; I genuinely enjoy what I do. I love diving into theories, exploring rabbit holes, and using my brain for critical thinking. If that’s too much for you, I understand. But in that case, don’t watch my videos if you think I’m just complaining. The title includes "WHY," which suggests I’m explaining something-and that’s exactly what I do. There’s no complaining here. Have a great day!
Hey we all agree bo6 has issues but can you stop making this bot claims until you have proof. It’s clear they use bots in warzone. It has never been said they use it in the actual game. Please have more proof so if they come out and prove otherwise you don’t look as bar
I see your point, but the fact that it's clear bots are being used in Warzone already provides a strong indication that they could be involved in other games and gamemodes as well. Waiting for official confirmation while ignoring the existing evidence doesn't really move the conversation forward. Recognizing the issue now doesn't make one look "bar"-it just means being aware of what's happening, even if it's not officially acknowledged yet.
Perhaps the game is the way it is solely because of camo grinding? Activision might have noticed that the community is only interested in endlessly grinding for camos, so they made the game a nonsensical experience as a result? One thing is for sure: the mini-maps are designed solely for camo grinding. While some criticize the game for having nonsensical mini-maps, this is the reason behind it. And I’ve said this before: there are no cheaters in the game (MP)! People get wrecked by skilled bots and call them cheaters 🥱 I'm Prestige level 155, and I know what I'm talking about-I've seen it all...... And why am I brain-dead enough to keep playing the game? Because I’m fully aware of these things. If I notice my team is losing a match, I quit the game and start a new one. I don’t play forced losing matches. I only play to win, so technically, I “always win.” I’m at the top of the leaderboard in over 75% of the games I play, even when grinding camos with terrible weapons.
To all the haters, if you do not believe in bots and rigged games. All you gotta do to test it, is dont get any kills for a few matches, you dont even need to die alot, all you need do is nothing. What you will notice, eventually, sometimes in the same match, you will notice while standing still, a player will come up to you, and shoot at you, hit you a few times, then stop, waiting for you to kill em. This is a BOT, sent to test you, its a free kill, they will do this multiple times, send bots to test to see if you will shoot back, they like shoot at you for a few bursts, then kill you. They are basically sent to give you a free kill. Doesnt matter what skill pevel you are, you can be the best player in the world, all you gotta do is stay still, dont kill anyone, and you will see the bots. This is the classic reverse boosting, and it still works. There ate bots in ALL ranks!!! Xreve, can you plrase do some test on this, play as yo7 nirmally do for a few matches to make sure you heet put in high skilled lobbies, then just dont fo anything, just go prone as soon as you enter the matchs, whatch whats happens, and please post for these disbelievers. Do this test please, you will see how soon they drop you into a very low level lobbie. Throw a nade ot tact when they about to kick outta the lobby.
Hey, I just want to make sure I understood you correctly. You’re asking me to test if bots are in the game by playing normally for a few matches to get placed in high-skilled lobbies. Once in the game, I should do nothing-no kills, just stand still or go prone. Then, I need to observe if a bot comes up to me, shoots a few times, and then stops, waiting for me to kill it. I should repeat this in multiple matches to see if it happens consistently. Also, when I’m about to be kicked out of the lobby, I’m supposed to throw a grenade or tactical item as part of the test. Finally, I should post my findings for others to see, especially for those who don’t believe in bots or rigged matchmaking. So its only about lowering my skill or engagement rating? And the goal is to wait for bots to come close to me and shoot and wait for my reaction, right? No running around fighting these guys? I mean I could do that too, but I wanna make sure I understand the way you want me to do it. It makes sense though, very interesting approach.
@xreve_ hey brother, yeah, so just stay still, and I think what's happens is the game tries to figure out if the lobby you in is too much and you laying low till the match is over. I've noticed after doing this for a few matches, the lobbies I get, the skill based damage, and eomm we talk about, it gets reversed, where the AI starts protecting you. It's super funny when when this happens. But after a few games laying low doing nothing, then play normal, you will probably get a nuke. You will notice a major difference in the lobbies after this
@@TreshaunPillay will try that probably tomorrow, thanks for clarifying! I might do another video today, because I connected some more dots and it is really, really messed up. Like completely messed up, I will and literally have to make these videos that ask the right questions. What you describe makes total sense with what I have in mind with the AI stuff. BO6 was born the day Microsoft bought Activision, and the goal was to make this game the biggest AI bot experience we have ever seen. This game served as a data collection ONLY, and ONLY for Microsofts AI. The picture gets clearer day by day. 4 years development? No hahaha, maybe 4 months. Which explains the broken systems, since literally anything runs with their Microsoft cloud based AI servers across multiple platforms.
Yessss! I did this yesterday, just do nothing, I watched entire teams go right past me while standing in the middle of an intersection on Urzikstan. I was getting spawned on and killed but I just stayed still or crouch walked forward, the ai will eventually ignore you 😅 I’m trying to use irregular classes/ loadouts and unusual methods to trick the algorithm. If we could all party into lobby & try this method in one location, I bet we could trick AND manipulate the ai 😅
@xreve_ yeah bro, and now Microsoft owns the patents, and the recent stuff everyone's on about now is the access to so much "data" of OURS, our cams to sus out our emotional state? To monitor our facial expressions?? Or to be able to now identify us even better? With AI facial recognition, for example, they wanna find a specific person and their location, they have the ability to do if they wanted to. What other info can they access through the game??? This is like exactly what intelligence agencies would love, a way to gather info, and access cam and microphones for literally millions of people, AND to be able to locate a person, if that person is playing this game that is. Are they selling this info? Or just us8ng it to try and get us to spend more? All thee big tech companies that have access to millions of user accounts are roumoured to be selling our info to the government, other interested parties, like large online store platforms? Sorry, I'm going conspiracy theory here
My new video confirms that. It is a patent from early 2024. That is proof that we have bots. Literally. And when you look for the patent online, you will find 7 search results. At least I do. I wonder how that is possible... they make sure you do not find this patent easily!
@@xreve_ Not to be that guy, but if they are in fact using bots, we at least have to give them credit for using far more sophisticated bots than the braindead ones on Fortnite. Again, why target BO6 in particular when bots are a part of many other games, including older versions of cod?
@ they are better yes, won’t deny that. But you can tell they learned from cheaters. The whole machine learning thing is so bad, because eventually, bots will learn from other bots, and it spreads like a disease. Target BO6 in particular, because Activision keeps their mouth shut, and we have delusional people in this community, saying there are not bots and it’s all conspiracy. Proof to me again, how small minded and how low the IQ of these people must be. Edit: and activision relies so much on AI, they are so lazy, it is embarrassing!
Odd question I’d like your take on, I haven’t spent money on cod since mob. Alright so, back in 2019-22 I was peak got the hacker messages each game even had a guy the other day say I miss the old nick on cod that kinda hurt me🥲😂 but these past 3 years I’ve almost had a 1.5 kd and my skill hasn’t changed I feel like my games are rigged and I definitely feel like it’s because I refuse to send money and my accounts been flagged. Tell me I’m wrong man I’ve been playing since Waw on the damn Wii and I’ve never noticed this big of a decline in my game. So please tell me I’m wrong
I’ve always been banned for cheating/hacking at the beginning of each cycle (I don’t cheat) but this year I’ve been comm banned since the start. They’d rather silence a player then lose a player because they cheat🤦♂️
I wish I could tell you that you're wrong, but unfortunately, I can't. I'm also not spending a single cent on this trash. The last time Activision saw money from me was when I bought BO2. There's a reason you see people defending the game who own almost every skin and bundle-they're clearly getting a better experience. This isn’t some conspiracy theory; some of the patents show that players with skins are placed into specific lobbies. It could also be that NPCs are wearing those skins to encourage new players to buy them. What’s not fair, though, is how the players with skins always seem to get the fastest kills, top frag, tank bullets, and have consistently good games. It feels like they’re having a much more stable, non-rigged experience. So, if you want to play like the good old days, you have to pay. The more money you spend, the easier the game becomes. I’ve never seen a guy who buys every bundle complaining about the game-they all love it, and to be honest, they're playing a totally different game. A lot of people in the comments have confirmed this. I could’ve done this experiment weeks ago, but I refuse to give them any of my money. I’m too proud for that, honestly. I know it would get me easier lobbies and a less rigged experience, but it’s just not worth it. And you know what’s messed up? People know this now. They know. Nowadays, people are more willing to spend money on games. What if most people think, “Hmm, $10 for this bundle isn’t that bad, and it’ll probably get me better lobbies”? And just like that, they're in the trap. They’ll start to feel like gods in the next rounds, and the system will analyze them, slowly pushing them back into rigged lobbies until they decide to buy again. It’s that simple. And the sad part is, people fall for it every. single. time. Would not surprise if another pattern would be, people who seem to not have spent any money since couple months/years, are purposely put into rigged lobbies, so they eventually feel like they have to buy something? I wonder how many people are shadow / chat banned for not doing anything, and see how it correlates with them buying stuff in game. But idk about that, since the biggest no hands, and highly skilled players get banned as well for "nothing", and they bought microtransactions. All rigged.
@ thought so, it so shitty how they keep getting away with this and the skill based nades and ttk is not talked about enough, on skyline a guy threw a nade upstairs in p2 and I got hit by a while holding p3 downstairs lying behind the bar😐. We literally sound like a broken record but no one for activision cares to listen.
What do you think - can Activision make a successful comeback, or is the silence too deafening?
As always, let me know your thoughts in the comments below! 👇
@xreve_ tbh no. I was highly skeptical of Warzone when they announced it and said it would kiII CoD. And look where we are today. I'll be honest I despise Battle Royales (except for Apex and honestly Blackout even though I've only played a little of the latter) and I especially don't like Warzone. Part of that is because Activision started shoving Warzonified versions of stuff in other modes (Cold War Zombies is a great example of this. What Treyarch had with that game was a good basis but was horribly flawed imo) and being shocked when Warzone players only stuck to Warzone.
Warzone and CoD in general have been selling well the past 5-6 years that Activision has pretty much gotten complacent.
Activision can not ever make a comeback. They have been doing this for years and it will just not stand in the future. They made their own bed now they have to sleep in it
Did you see that you can Request your stats from Activision.
Hell no I don't think I can ever touch another actvison game unless the ceo is replaced by someone who's known to be honest I'm tired of this fucking manipulation
their plan is probably “stay silent until ppl stop questioning, or until we make the system so advanced it can keep you hooked but not quite frustrated or suspicious.” my advice is quit now before they master your psychology.
They’ll stay silent until people actually take them to court. Their greed is astounding, and they seem to think people are too ignorant to notice. Unfortunately, it makes sense-if a significant portion of the COD player base has a relatively low IQ, they’re easy to exploit. It’s a smart business strategy, I’ll admit-it makes them a lot of money.
But smart people are starting to ask the right questions, and they’re aware of this. Why do they silence so many people and enforce NDAs? Why? Because if the truth came out, it could potentially collapse the entire franchise. They’d have to pack it up and move on.
I’ve got a ton of video ideas, but honestly, I feel a bit overwhelmed right now. The more I connect the dots, the clearer it all becomes. Every day, there’s something new to uncover, and it just reinforces how badly they’ve messed up. For a multi-billion-dollar AAA company, their silence speaks volumes.
I haven’t gone deep into full-scale research yet, just sticking to what I can see-but I’m starting to think the blame might shift from Activision to Microsoft. MS bought Activision, and while we’ve been used to Activision’s practices for years, this year’s release, BO6, seems to have been rushed in just four months, not four years. Why? My theory is that Microsoft didn’t buy Activision just for the games-they wanted player data.
Combine that with patents giving them access to peripherals, and you can see where this is headed. It’s no longer just Activision "wanting" your data-it’s Microsoft.
I’ll leave you with one question to think about: What do all of these platforms have in common? COD BO6 can be played on Steam, Battle.net, the Xbox App (Game Pass), Xbox, and PS5. There’s one clue here, one that might help you see the bigger picture. Can you figure it out?
CoD strayed away from redemption in 2019 when they started revisiting past titles but with worse game mechanics.
They tried to capture lightning in a bottle twice, while lacking the required vision and talent to improve upon the games.
They began catering to an audience that was NOT their loyal fans at the same time.
The message was loud and clear. They want pay piggies in a safe barn. The old school players have no place in their game.
Instead of fighting back with their wallets, the hardcores just complained and continued to play. Big corporations only understand money. To them, everyone was handing them big stacks of approval.
very well said
@ritwiksnha Thank you
The issue is they obsess over data, engagement etc but it’s not organic. I remember playing cod for hours at a time before the current system. Now I cannot play longer than a hour tops they should listen to the feedback from players but they won’t.
i just cant play this game, constant shoot first die first its insane. im over cod
I only played one game for this video, and even though it was one of the "better" games and experiences I have had with BO6, I had to leave.
I just couldn’t take it anymore. Was my first game in 2 weeks? I am running out of gameplay for my videos and am thinking of diving back into Battlefield 4 and/or V.
Danke! Frohes neues bro 🎉❤ W
Wow, ich habe zu Danken! Lieb von Dir!
Frohes Neues 🥰🎊
They don't have to say anything because we all allowed them to do whatever they wanted when we clicked that agreement.
Exactly. And they probably won’t address it-there’s no reason for them to. I just hope that, at the very least, some things start to improve. It would be great to see them actually make meaningful changes for the better for once.
@xreve_ Been hoping for that for entirely too long. I finally got off that hamster wheel, and I feel good about it. Marvel Rivals is fun, and I can catch up on games I've missed while playing COD.
@@xreve_it won't. This rabbit hole is deeper than China
Doubt it and simple hope will not get us there. Call of duty as we know it is cooked
Let me help out the braindead here. Human beings have to stand up and make a stand when things go too far. Example: covid. That was tyranny and you idiots sat around and did nothing! Same thing over the years w cod...you just sat back and took it. It's all a test and most normies are failing miserably.
If someone creates a cod like game with a server browser and a robust anti cheat, then it will fix every single issue.
That would be awesome! I cannot wait for the next Battlefield.
After I decided to leave COD for good after BO2, I started playing Battlefield again, and I have enjoyed it much more ever since.
Sad to watch the best game out there kill itself. Don’t think they are going to adjust anything until another developer creates a clone of this game minus all the garbage. It’s almost like they are doing it in purpose.
I always come to the same conclusion: someone needs to create a better shooter than Call of Duty, with genuine matchmaking. It makes you wonder-are these issues intentional for some reason? It wouldn’t make sense to keep paying employees to work on the game if the goal is for it to fail every year. What’s the point? A quick cash grab while the game flops annually? Anyway, thanks for your comment!
@@xreve_ The games may be a flop in our eyes, but Activision keeps on posting record profit.
Nothing changes until people stop paying. Thing is, the CoD community wont stop paying. The few of us that have stopped have already been replaced by fortnite kids growing up.
Slow down now. Best game is an opinion.
The easy answer, is money. If ppl paid 120$ for the deluxe version, they're likely find buy that@@xreve_
@ I know! I have been addicted to Hardcore Search and Destroy since the 2000’s. I can’t find anything that gives the same feeling, but again you are correct it’s only an opinion!
Activision stays silent because they know people will keep buying their bundles, passes, and soon event passes. Content creators that complain about bundles yet proceed to buy them are the biggest offenders. Giving Activision your money doesn't say "I'm fed up with the state of the game" whatsoever, and more people need to see that in order for this franchise to change. That or some major competition from other games.
but the games have been selling less year after year.
@soundrogue4472 That's due to game pass but doesn't fully matter when people are out buying cosmetics that outmatch the price of the game once you buy 2 or 3 separate bundles
It started in 2019
No one listened
Now its so bad, you don't need to listen
It’s clear to see for all that have critical thinking that Activision dare not speak about any one factor of the system that makes up the games criteria for match making because admittance to anything would open a can of worms & I’m almost certain that there are patents & systems in place that aren’t above board legally.
If accusations were being thrown at anyone & you know you was playing by the book you would defend yourself till the bitter end for the sake of your name, respect & integrity.
The wording used in the white paper when they finally addressed SBMM told me everything. They didn’t answer the questions we all had, instead they rephrased the questions & applied the answers that would make them look innocent… they think the gaming player base are stupid, not realising that 99% of games are based on pattern recognition, identifying the problems that face us & finding the solutions to those problems. Us gamers are highly accustomed to that now, the corporate industry may be able to work those tricks in the commercial area but in the gaming stratosphere it’s not gonna drop the same… we’re a different kind of beast 1 million %
Great video
Thank you! What exactly did you like if you dont mind sharing, still figuring out what people enjoy about my videos!
@@xreve_ in depth analysis of what everyone (well, most of us) have been going through
Also, it was nice that you explained what got us here and where the future lies
MW2019 felt bits of SBMM, MW2 starzed feeling artificual and l7ke something is messing with me, did not buy MW3 only tried Warzone and felt even more wierd things like guns would fight against me not to hit enemys etc., BO6 only played the beta and quit immediatly because it felt real off... I was there since CoD 2 on the Xbox360 with friends playing splitscreen but MW2019 is the last playable enjoyable game at least for me, it does not feel like something is messing with you and our inputs do what you want and think... RIP CoD
I just want to have back the good old times. They would just need to remake the old titles and give us better servers and a working anti cheat. Problem should be solved. Sometimes you wonder if they did it on purpose. The veterans all claim it is feeling very off, while others say it’s „normal“ and we got a „skill issue“. That’s so wild to me.
@@xreve_honestly to me it seems like people who were never that good are finally winning and they can't accept the reality that the game has manipulated the outcome. Don't get me wrong I've never been that good at call of duty and I haven't even played in probably a decade outside of a game or two of black ops 2 zombies here and there, but if everyone who's been playing for 15 years says it's weird, all the evidence says it's weird, and the company keeps speaking without actually saying anything, something's probably up
Been there since Cod2 and splitscreen lobby... played cod4 on pc and xbox360.. all the following titels, skiped only some like adv. warfare and vanguards... and yes it is like you say, the new games just feel of and wierd... I started wondering if I just got older and worse but when playing other or older titels I feel and see that it is not me getting bad, no it is the game f**king with me...

I’m almost positive this damage modification is being used when you down a player & the Phalanx ai downs you before you can finish. It’s like clockwork now, the ai have become too strong, too self aware & it’s too obvious, so everyone’s feeling it.

Its been that bad ive downloaded a ps2 emulator and play games i grew up on
Love it! I recently bought myself a Nintendo DS Lite since my brothers "borrowed" mine years ago. Now I’m reliving the nostalgia playing Pokémon Platinum on an R4 chip, just like back in the day. It feels so different now!
What games did you play on the PS2? I remember getting mine for Christmas, and for the longest time, I couldn’t figure out why my games weren’t saving. Turns out, my dad and I didn’t know you needed a memory card for save slots. Good times, hahaha!
I mainly played Need for Speed on the PS2-Underground 2, Most Wanted, and Carbon. I LOVE Carbon. Honestly, we need an NFS Carbon remaster ASAP! So many great titles from back then just disappeared for no reason. Meanwhile, COD has been hanging on by a thread for years with their mediocre releases.
It's too far gone. By the time they realise they've pushed everyone away and fixed it no one will play anymore. I feel like the massive player dropoff is irreversible at this point. That 49% that dropped off wont come back. It sucks but we all have to realise that cod isn't ever gonna be like it was back in the cod 4 to bo2 era. Its basically over for us ogs. They managed to sucker me into buying bo6. First cod ive bought in 3 years and i wish i never bought it. Id take it back to the store but I won't get a full refund so now it just sits on my shelf collecting dust. Would rather it do that than pass that awful game onto someone else.
I just want to have back the good old times, they were so simple. I would give anything to go back for one day.
Well they have access to your camera the moment you launch CoD on PC. Really disgusting, I hope they bankrupt themselves.
I’m assuming this has to do with if someone uses their camera microphone for voice chat? That’s the reasonable explanation.
Their parent states that they could analyze the players frustration levels, with for example „facial expressions“ - it’s literally in a patent.
@ damn didn’t know it specified. Thats dystopian and creepy
It’s dropping so fast on steam it’s down 47 percent
Yesterday morning for me it was at -42% in total, now we are at almost -48%. It really hurts if you look at it being a trend. People always come back and hope it’s better. But it’s not. Guess this year was finally enough.
The franchise is dead. The amount of bs they did to the player is just insane. Rigged matchmaking, bots and even invasion of your computer. The bots are to a point where they are undetectable to people who don't pick up on weird coincidences. They game is so well made to hide the bots and make every aspect of weird gameplay excusable. If you wonder why is it that these players (bots) always know where I'm at. Well that can be excused by uav, pulse and recon specialty. Why does it take so many bullets to kill someone but they kill me in one. The excuse is netcode, lag desync when in reality the game is nerfing you. People honestly believe it's a overwhelming amount of sweats in the game when in reality they are mostly bots.
Honestly, the competitive players, their movement and aim are just on another level. I admire that, really. Being that good with a controller is insane. These people will always be better than me, I will not deny that. You can tell they've spent hours perfecting their skills. However, when you watch some of the kill cams, these "sweaty" players often have stiff movement that looks unnatural, almost like they have wallhacks, and they never miss a shot once they're on you. It's crazy how delusional some people are. We've had bots in games for over a decade now, and it blows my mind how many people just don’t see it. These bots are now running AI in real time, allowing them to adapt instantly. We even have patents that indicate that this is happening. They are not being transparent for a reason.
I still doubt activision would fix it if it is a bug. How long has some bugs been in SINCE LAUNCH and still NOT PATCHED
Meanwhile, like I mentioned before, I believe it is a feature by now. You can’t make this up ..
Ive thought an i playing bots If you look for a game with randoms are you always the party leader ?
They wont fix anything, it would mean them admitting wrong, like something with webcams.
@@branchoffbush3838 I am waiting what the community comes up with. Need more insights and opinions on that. Feel like I dive into some patents again, there is one that I really think is interesting, forgot how it’s called. Btw have you replied to me on Foolys video? If so, I dont see anything. If you don’t mind, just for sharing info, you can add me on DC: ravy420 - no need to, just better way for me to communicate with you, because the stuff you mention is really interesting!
The AI bots will showcase skins and bundles from the store also lol "ooooh I want that skin", makes money. I have been experiencing skill based timer to enter a game for 2 months now lol, probably a bug but who knows. Solo or in a party my timer freezes at the 8 second countdown to start the match. My party enters the match and can cap 2 flags before my timer unfreezes (It is not my internet). So, I back out of the lobby or game now, it is not fair for me or my team. Yes, they need to earn the trust back but they won't apologize or change. They also need to abolish cheating streamer protection in streamer mode and 1 phone call unbanned privileges. Doesn't make sense to buy anything with a yearly release and they don't port items bought over to the new game and we know they can. I will not play on 2025 launch unless there is change and still I will wait to see if changed stayed or just a PR stunt like Ricochet for Vanguard launch.
Just the other day I played nuketown domination and the score was 150-100 and mind u I had got my harp and streaks dominating the game and then randomly my teammates left mid game and the other team came back and one because they never refilled the lobby left with a 2v6 😂
@@vee416YT I’ve never seen so many people leave a lobby before-maybe 3 at most. But 2v6? That’s just crazy. In the clip, you can see that we were actually winning at first. I’ll admit, I wasn’t playing the objective at all, but somehow we still managed to lose. It’s like the tide suddenly shifts, and if you’re not playing the objective yourself, it feels almost guaranteed that you’ll lose-because you always seem to be the only one playing it.
That’s why I’ve refused to believe these are real players since launch. If bots are programmed to manipulate player engagement, distract them in certain areas, or disrupt gameplay, it would make sense that some don’t really play the objective. At the same time, there are clearly different types of bots. For example, in this match, there was one enemy player with an insanely high objective score. Strangely, he was incredibly hard for me to kill and always showed up when I thought I had an advantage due to spawn flips.
It’s the same pattern with “Bongmeister,” who killed me repeatedly-it’s not just coincidence. That’s deliberate, and people need to wake up to it. This stuff fascinates me, though, and I’d love to learn how these bots are programmed. They always behave in predictable patterns, doing strange things in specific areas of the map. Nuketown, for example, would be a great map for experimenting. I need to come up with something to test this further.
They wont fix or acknowledge anything because it would mean them admitting to felonies. Like webcam access.
I saw the stuff you posted and Fooly covering it in his video-great content, haha! The rabbit hole gets even deeper with this. I knew it was in their patents, but I had no idea you could find evidence of it running in the background. That is insane!

Ricochet made me think a lot-why force it on PC and claim console players benefit? PCs perform better, so it makes sense to run background processes that adjust things in real-time. And why can PS5 players turn off crossplay without issues? I've been seeing that more lately. People saying their experience is not rigged at all. Makes you wonder ..

Yeah, I’ve read about it. I know they have several things patented, nothing new there. The difference now is that someone’s actually been able to prove this stuff is running in the background when you open COD. It's the same with my argument about bots, EOMM, and no SBMM. We have NPC patents. Do I have 100% proof they’re in the game? No. But I’m just trying to explain how the patent works and how it could relate to what’s going on.
It’s definitely real, though. It could explain why your aim sometimes feels off-they have access to everything. You have to understand, having access to all that data and using it to create player profiles is incredibly valuable. Data is always valuable, and I’m really suspicious about what they’re doing with it. There’s zero transparency.
What they're doing would never, ever be possible in Germany, not even close. Now, people are asking for their profile data, but it doesn’t really matter. They were smart to implement this years ago-it’s not a new feature-but they need to allow people to see what data they've collected. The real problem is we don’t know what they’re doing with it. I’ll wait to see what else comes to light, but I have my suspicions, especially when it comes to crossplay and why PS5 lets you turn it off. The way Microsoft is using cloud-based AI computing for servers… the rabbit hole just got a lot deeper.
It is very interesting to see that the "theories" the community have, are not being debunked anymore, since more and more issues arise and these guys just keep quiet as if everything was alright, it is insane. People do not understand how crazy the whole situation is at the moment. They do not adress anything, they just come up with their PR nonsense and gaslight the community. As a AAA studio with billions of dollars. Hilarious!
1:22 "A gameeeee theorrrryyyyy". xD
Alright. I'll see myself out. /j
PS: HAPPY NEW YEAR 🎉
Hahaha, Happy new year!! 🎉
I have never been shadow banned or felt so manipulated ever until bo6. I got my first ever shadow ban thanksgiving, 13 days later I get free and only 2 games later I got shadow ban again. Im going on 20 days now into my second shadow ban and ive given up, so frustrating.
Uninstall the game! It is broken. So many people are leaving for a reason.
You 💯 with this one
Activision is a very shady company in my opinion.
You're soo kind! Which makes you naive! Almost delusional! You can, safely, forget it! They're busy dismantling the game! And it's at a point that even if they tried to put it in a state of the past, it's impossible! They've done irreversible damage! This is the case! Believe it!
I just logged on to blackops now and I was in a game?! Then backed itself out communication to the server was lost message but a false of me at the end game screen 😢😢
Screen capped it on xbox but it's does some weird glitch thing before showing the message 😂😂
I can’t believe more people don’t see this. Regardless the game is still killing itself.
When are people gunna learn, they only care about money and numbers. Stop trusting them
Good question, I learned it over a decade ago. Some will never.
Last cents they got were with BO2. When Ghosts released, red flags everywhere for me.
I think Cod will come back with a different formula with different management. When the game dies, all the higher ups will retire, and newer people will take over and I would like to see a FTP live service game instead of a yearly release it seems like the games are good after a while but get reset with the yearly release.
They do same in Overwatch and World of Warcraft solo pvp modes.
Been playing for a few days and noticed all of this. If they continue to do so, it will definitely be the death of the game; another game will just have to come out and fill the gap.
That would be the best thing that could happen for the COD community. Only time will tell ..
COD IS NOWHERE NEAR WHAT IT USED TO BE💯💔💔
its not just cod its most games.
they are silent right now waiting for the drama to go away
Brudi wir müssen das boykottieren das die spielerzahlen noch stärker sinken oder wenn man spielt keine skins kaufen.
Das alles ist nicht mehr lustig und einfach nur noch gruselig. Mal gucken wie das cod wird was dieses Jahr rauskommen soll….
Das Spiel kann man schon seit Jahren in die Tonne stecken. Ich würde sogar Skins kaufen, wenn das Spiel gut wäre und die Skins ein bisschen mehr wie Soldaten und weniger wie ein Fortnite-Abklatsch aussehen würden. Lustig ist das auf keinen Fall, das sollte einem wirklich Sorgen machen. Entweder wird es noch schlechter als dieses Jahr, oder sie ändern beim nächsten Mal wirklich alles .. was ich jedoch stark bezweifle!
@@xreve_ja wir können nur abwarten so in bo6 ist so viel an Algorithmen die das Spiel auf Wege beeinflussen die kein normaler casual jemals verstehen wird. Ich spawne bekomme hitmarker oder mein 4 Mann Stack bekommt auf nuketown 3 min kontinuierlich aufs maul bis als hätte jemand einen Schalter umgelegt und wir auf einmal die sind die alles schneller droppen.
Ich denke in dem Spiel ist so viel ki und es wird so viel getestet das sie in den nächsten teilen den großen Aktionären Honig um den Mund schmieren.
Everyone needs to leave lol. Then I can promise they will remake black ops2 as a last hope of cash
That would be amazing, I’d be all in for that! Of course, I’d have my doubts, but if they really remade an older COD with a new engine and revamped maps-without the algorithms and bundles-it could bring back the golden era of gaming for me. That’s what gaming used to be about. What we have now is a nightmare: it’s all about bundles in the store and microtransactions everywhere. Back then, you played the game. Now, it’s just about browsing a store while the algorithm in the background tries to convince you to buy bundles.
I am so sorry but the words:
"Patents" and "Alienate" are pronounced really differently, i recommend looking them up to hear how they should be pronounced.
But the video and information is a banger, i hope they open the door a little, it reminds me kind of what epic games is doing to rocket league and fall guys. Just wave after wave of microtransaction update with no real light at the end of the tunnel.
Well, I’d say that’s more of the British pronunciation. But you’re right-it probably seems odd since I use an American accent after spending over a year abroad. I learned Oxford English in school and studied in the UK, so some things have gotten a bit mixed up I guess.
Thank you, though! I really appreciate it-it means a lot! These days, it’s all about the microtransactions and keeping you hooked for as long as possible. It is really bad ..
I played prop hunt the other night and i swear there were bots in the lobby
100%, probably because not many players were playing. Or they just ran experiments in that lobby, all possible!
I feel like Microsoft has been slowly killing these games 🎮 mabe to to push micro purchase in mobile phones games 🎮 🤔
This it's only the beginning if you value your time and your sanity stop playing this and only pay 1 month of game pass when the next game launches enjoy it and forget about it
Always the same when the first season launches the games brokes and all the original art vision of the game it's affected by anime skins
This criminal trash franchise will never be saved.
We, the community and others can be saved.
COD deserves to die, I always said that. It is sad but look at what they have done to it ..
What if... here me out, COD creators leave COD and let the game series rest 6ft down.
Before EOMM and SBMM never did cod loose 50% in mp! Even in some of the least liked games 🎮 aka Ghosts
There is no need for them to talk about it. They sell games, bundles and battles pass for COD to many players in the game. Casuals players buy stuff and they know it with proven data. And casuals out number competitive or diehard players. This is a corporate company that needs to up their numbers each year to satisfy investors. Either deal with it, find a new game to play, get a girlfriend or play a sport.
You are right, in the end it is all for investors and PR. Not for the players or the community. Why care about the community? They will come back either way. But the shareholders, that are the ones corporations obviously care the most about. And I do not blame them. It is just that they do not care at all about their community, which is quite sad!
They could shut down cod on console and PC and still make between $22-32 million PER MONTH off of the mobile version alone 😂😂
I took a dumb while watching this and it stunk less then this video
Great video.
But hear me out (and I acknowledge this is very pessimistic but I honestly feel it’s true):
Most players (casual players) don’t care about manipulation. They just want to play and win. If an algorithm is helping weak players those people are actually ok with it.
Thank you! I completely agree. They do not feel it, and if they have doubts, they probably do not care enough.
This is how they make their money, and it’s why they fixed 2-boxing-I get it, but it is wrong.
People should have the option to play with bots or not, and that would solve the issue.
Let the rest of us enjoy the authentic experience without any rigged matchmaking algorithms.
@
Yep- you’re 100% right. Instead of transparency they are taking advantage of the points you just made.
Look- nothing gets changed until 1 of 2 things happens:
1) The profits plummet
2) Legal action is take .
Remember loot boxes? Well they persisted until someone file a suit saying under-aged gambling was unethical. The problem is that not enough people are willing to leverage legal means to advocate for transparency.
For example, if society valued mental health within the gaming landscape enough, it would be feasible to think that someone could file against the negative implications of non-transparent manipulation. But most gamers are not lawyers and or not raising their concerns to that level. When that changes, we will start seeing companies act slightly more ethical.
yeah i stopped playing any cod for a long time and wanted to give bo6 a try. And yeah never again lol.
Cod is a crash cow
No offence, but when you say “lightning quick” matchmaking is so far from the truth. Older games snap you into lobbies instantly. There were no bots in those multiplayers. BO6 i play solo and it takes forever to find me matches despite being hard wired while playing and playing solo. The EOMM is so predictable that I stomp for like 5ish matches, then immediately after packet burst match 6-10 grenades curving to hit you, ghost bullets out of no where etc. Im not saying AI bots dont exist, what I’m saying is, the more nefarious thing would be them wanting us to believe it’s AI bots when in reality the game itself is the ai bot that actively goes out of its way to screw us over. If that makes any sense.
The matchmaking still is quick. There are game without these matchmaking system or better ones, and it takes up to 3-4mins. And yes exactly, the whole game is ran by AI. Every little aspect, people are just not familiar with patents and algorithms.
Having a cat AND a dog must be nice.
The biggest issue with Warzone is that the developers have nerfed many of the tools casual players relied on to compete with highly skilled, dedicated players. Vehicles, helicopters, RPGs, shotguns, and melee attacks-key elements that helped less experienced players secure kills-have been significantly weakened. As a result, many casual players have left the game for alternatives like Fortnite.
Although SBMM (Skill-Based Matchmaking) was introduced to make matches fairer, Warzone has failed to attract new players because the game remains overly complex. Features like contracts and killstreaks could benefit from streamlining, and vehicles, RPGs, and melee attacks should be restored to their former power, as seen in Warzone 1.
To make matters worse, several new features have been added that disproportionately favor highly skilled players. Zip-lines, redeployment balloons, and the recently introduced Omni-Movement system cater to experienced players who have the time and dedication to master these mechanics. If these self-destructive features were removed, it might even allow for the removal of SBMM, creating a more organic and balanced experience.
Weapon balancing is another critical issue. Ground loot weapons often feel vastly inferior to loadout weapons, making the game less accessible and enjoyable for new and average players. This imbalance further alienates those who don’t have the resources or skills to dominate the game.
Instead of leveling the playing field, these changes have widened the skill gap, discouraging new and casual players from sticking around. Average players are also leaving because they stand no chance against the highly skilled, “no-life” gamers who dominate lobbies. What’s left are lobbies filled with hardcore players, but even their numbers are shrinking. If this trend continues, Warzone risks losing its entire player base.
To revitalize Warzone, the developers need to focus on making the game more accessible, fun, and balanced for everyone-not just the most skilled or dedicated players.
You need to go play another game cause you ain’t getting the big picture here. Everything you said is irrelevant when every single facet of this game is rigged for a certain outcome. What good is the meta when they’re playing you agianst veteran ai meant to “challenge” you
@Tuffbruvvv After five years of playing Warzone, I recently gave Fortnite a try, and I’m honestly having the time of my life. The simplicity of the game is what makes it so appealing and accessible to everyone. Without loadouts, players have to adapt to what they find on the ground, which levels the playing field and makes the experience feel fairer.
This approach also prevents veterans from abusing meta weapons, ensuring that skill and strategy matter more than just knowing the ‘best’ loadout. Removing mechanics like ziplines and redeployment balloons could work similarly in Warzone by limiting how much highly skilled players can move around the entire map.
Fortnite shows that a game doesn’t need overly complex mechanics or artificially created challenges to keep players engaged-it just needs to be fun and balanced. If Warzone could return to some of its simpler roots it might win back a lot of the casual player base that has left."
@Tuffbruvvv I completely agree-it often feels like the system isn’t just matching skill levels but actively working against players to maintain some artificial balance. This kind of manipulation takes away from the authenticity of competition, making victories feel less earned and losses more frustrating.
After five years of playing Warzone, I recently tried Fortnite for the first time, and I’m having the time of my life. The simplicity of Fortnite is its biggest strength. There are no custom loadouts, so you’re forced to adapt to whatever you find on the ground. This prevents veterans from abusing overpowered meta weapons.
Warzone could learn a lot from this. Removing mechanics like ziplines and redeployment balloons what would limit a highly skilled players to dominate the entire map. These changes would make matches feel more balanced and enjoyable for casual and average players alike.
If these fundamental issues were addressed, the manipulative systems like SBMM could be removed entirely.
A more organic matchmaking experience would allow for fair competition without players feeling like the game is working against them.
Activision is never going to change we are cooked
Sadly not, I do not believe that they will change either. It has been like that for years now!
Just be honest, call of duty is known for in video games but what is the back behind the scenes if a player was cheater in a video game 999 percentage of the time people want to play for game for legit it players go get rigged to matches and. Aimboting wall hacking rage hackers if call of duty have $1 billion company they can’t even fix the anti-cheat because they too damn lazy to do so they can’t get rid of the hackers because they game anyway and we can’t beat the hackers between their devices so players take action we quit in the game and we stand on that so other players move on to different games a lot of people were agree on this but hacking it’s not cool so the game so we wanted to play is for legit 💯 I grew up in the early 2000s since since call of duty since of existing, but here’s why if they need to change, they need to get rid of the hackers or the game cooked 💯💯
I get your frustration, and you're absolutely right that cheating has been a big issue in Call of Duty for a while now. It's hard to enjoy the game when you're constantly up against aimbots, wall hacks, and rage hackers, especially when they make it impossible to play fairly. It’s also tough to see a massive company like Activision not prioritize fixing the anti-cheat system when they have the resources to do so.
It feels like they’re more focused on pushing out bundles and microtransactions rather than addressing the core issues that hurt the player experience. Unfortunately, a lot of players are feeling the same way. If they don’t do something about it soon, they risk driving away even more of their player base. Hopefully, they’ll realize that fixing the game and ensuring a fair, fun environment should be their top priority, instead of letting hackers take over. It is over for now. Took some time for people to wake up.
The bots are in your head man😅
Yes, like their patents. All in my head. Just fiction.
@xreve_ patents were for all the games they own, including offline ones....if there were bots we would know by now, it's 2025 man,we have the internet but thanks for your cospiracy theory sir
@@tempestzz5682 you are delusional. They are hiding it on purpose and not mention it. Activision Fan boi hahaha
@@tempestzz5682 I wonder why patents explain how they use NPCs to mimic real players, and that these NPCs are in your lobbies with humans and are trained at the same time in this environment. Maybe you could do some research yourself and not argue with this non sense. The patents tell exactly what’s going, and it’s not for offline modes. It’s for cooperative and competitive modes. Go figure.
@@xreve_ Brother just because i think it's un realistic dosen't make me a defender of activision...
Kinda pathetic yall played the beta to buy the game and complain goes to show how braindead the cod community is
I did not play the beta. I only heard about the game a few days before its release and did not even know MWIII was a thing.
The last COD I bought was BO2, which was over a decade ago.
I am not trying to complain, but rather raise questions and critically engage with the issues we have been facing with COD for years.
This video highlights where you are coming from, and I think most people just do not know any better. But this time, it is pretty clear something is going on.
Hope this gives you some more context!
@xreve_ not directed towards u bro ur good 👍
GO play Asian games they are not rigged you play and can tell.
If you’re complaining about COD, you have too much time on your hands.
How am I complaining? Do some of you just read the title and jump straight into the comments with nonsense? Regardless, thanks for the engagement-it helps with the algorithm.
I’d argue that my content is quite different from most channels trash-talking COD. There’s nothing wrong with sharing opinions your way, but I approach things differently. I raise questions, ask the right ones, and try to see the bigger picture. It’s not about having too much free time; I genuinely enjoy what I do. I love diving into theories, exploring rabbit holes, and using my brain for critical thinking.
If that’s too much for you, I understand. But in that case, don’t watch my videos if you think I’m just complaining. The title includes "WHY," which suggests I’m explaining something-and that’s exactly what I do. There’s no complaining here.
Have a great day!
Hey we all agree bo6 has issues but can you stop making this bot claims until you have proof. It’s clear they use bots in warzone. It has never been said they use it in the actual game. Please have more proof so if they come out and prove otherwise you don’t look as bar
I see your point, but the fact that it's clear bots are being used in Warzone already provides a strong indication that they could be involved in other games and gamemodes as well. Waiting for official confirmation while ignoring the existing evidence doesn't really move the conversation forward. Recognizing the issue now doesn't make one look "bar"-it just means being aware of what's happening, even if it's not officially acknowledged yet.
patent.
You one of the people who needs bots on his team to win bro...
Perhaps the game is the way it is solely because of camo grinding? Activision might have noticed that the community is only interested in endlessly grinding for camos, so they made the game a nonsensical experience as a result? One thing is for sure: the mini-maps are designed solely for camo grinding. While some criticize the game for having nonsensical mini-maps, this is the reason behind it.
And I’ve said this before: there are no cheaters in the game (MP)! People get wrecked by skilled bots and call them cheaters 🥱 I'm Prestige level 155, and I know what I'm talking about-I've seen it all......
And why am I brain-dead enough to keep playing the game? Because I’m fully aware of these things. If I notice my team is losing a match, I quit the game and start a new one. I don’t play forced losing matches. I only play to win, so technically, I “always win.” I’m at the top of the leaderboard in over 75% of the games I play, even when grinding camos with terrible weapons.
To all the haters, if you do not believe in bots and rigged games. All you gotta do to test it, is dont get any kills for a few matches, you dont even need to die alot, all you need do is nothing. What you will notice, eventually, sometimes in the same match, you will notice while standing still, a player will come up to you, and shoot at you, hit you a few times, then stop, waiting for you to kill em. This is a BOT, sent to test you, its a free kill, they will do this multiple times, send bots to test to see if you will shoot back, they like shoot at you for a few bursts, then kill you. They are basically sent to give you a free kill. Doesnt matter what skill pevel you are, you can be the best player in the world, all you gotta do is stay still, dont kill anyone, and you will see the bots. This is the classic reverse boosting, and it still works. There ate bots in ALL ranks!!! Xreve, can you plrase do some test on this, play as yo7 nirmally do for a few matches to make sure you heet put in high skilled lobbies, then just dont fo anything, just go prone as soon as you enter the matchs, whatch whats happens, and please post for these disbelievers. Do this test please, you will see how soon they drop you into a very low level lobbie. Throw a nade ot tact when they about to kick outta the lobby.
Hey, I just want to make sure I understood you correctly. You’re asking me to test if bots are in the game by playing normally for a few matches to get placed in high-skilled lobbies. Once in the game, I should do nothing-no kills, just stand still or go prone. Then, I need to observe if a bot comes up to me, shoots a few times, and then stops, waiting for me to kill it. I should repeat this in multiple matches to see if it happens consistently. Also, when I’m about to be kicked out of the lobby, I’m supposed to throw a grenade or tactical item as part of the test. Finally, I should post my findings for others to see, especially for those who don’t believe in bots or rigged matchmaking.
So its only about lowering my skill or engagement rating? And the goal is to wait for bots to come close to me and shoot and wait for my reaction, right?
No running around fighting these guys? I mean I could do that too, but I wanna make sure I understand the way you want me to do it. It makes sense though, very interesting approach.
@xreve_ hey brother, yeah, so just stay still, and I think what's happens is the game tries to figure out if the lobby you in is too much and you laying low till the match is over. I've noticed after doing this for a few matches, the lobbies I get, the skill based damage, and eomm we talk about, it gets reversed, where the AI starts protecting you. It's super funny when when this happens. But after a few games laying low doing nothing, then play normal, you will probably get a nuke. You will notice a major difference in the lobbies after this
@@TreshaunPillay will try that probably tomorrow, thanks for clarifying! I might do another video today, because I connected some more dots and it is really, really messed up. Like completely messed up, I will and literally have to make these videos that ask the right questions. What you describe makes total sense with what I have in mind with the AI stuff. BO6 was born the day Microsoft bought Activision, and the goal was to make this game the biggest AI bot experience we have ever seen. This game served as a data collection ONLY, and ONLY for Microsofts AI. The picture gets clearer day by day. 4 years development? No hahaha, maybe 4 months. Which explains the broken systems, since literally anything runs with their Microsoft cloud based AI servers across multiple platforms.
Yessss! I did this yesterday, just do nothing, I watched entire teams go right past me while standing in the middle of an intersection on Urzikstan. I was getting spawned on and killed but I just stayed still or crouch walked forward, the ai will eventually ignore you 😅 I’m trying to use irregular classes/ loadouts and unusual methods to trick the algorithm. If we could all party into lobby & try this method in one location, I bet we could trick AND manipulate the ai 😅
@xreve_ yeah bro, and now Microsoft owns the patents, and the recent stuff everyone's on about now is the access to so much "data" of OURS, our cams to sus out our emotional state? To monitor our facial expressions?? Or to be able to now identify us even better? With AI facial recognition, for example, they wanna find a specific person and their location, they have the ability to do if they wanted to. What other info can they access through the game??? This is like exactly what intelligence agencies would love, a way to gather info, and access cam and microphones for literally millions of people, AND to be able to locate a person, if that person is playing this game that is. Are they selling this info? Or just us8ng it to try and get us to spend more? All thee big tech companies that have access to millions of user accounts are roumoured to be selling our info to the government, other interested parties, like large online store platforms? Sorry, I'm going conspiracy theory here
Hilarious that people are torching BO6 for using "bots" (P.S. this is still unconfirmed) when Fortnite has been blatantly using them for years.
My new video confirms that.
It is a patent from early 2024. That is proof that we have bots. Literally.
And when you look for the patent online, you will find 7 search results.
At least I do. I wonder how that is possible... they make sure you do not find this patent easily!
@@xreve_ Not to be that guy, but if they are in fact using bots, we at least have to give them credit for using far more sophisticated bots than the braindead ones on Fortnite. Again, why target BO6 in particular when bots are a part of many other games, including older versions of cod?
@ they are better yes, won’t deny that. But you can tell they learned from cheaters. The whole machine learning thing is so bad, because eventually, bots will learn from other bots, and it spreads like a disease.
Target BO6 in particular, because Activision keeps their mouth shut, and we have delusional people in this community, saying there are not bots and it’s all conspiracy. Proof to me again, how small minded and how low the IQ of these people must be.
Edit: and activision relies so much on AI, they are so lazy, it is embarrassing!
Odd question I’d like your take on, I haven’t spent money on cod since mob. Alright so, back in 2019-22 I was peak got the hacker messages each game even had a guy the other day say I miss the old nick on cod that kinda hurt me🥲😂 but these past 3 years I’ve almost had a 1.5 kd and my skill hasn’t changed I feel like my games are rigged and I definitely feel like it’s because I refuse to send money and my accounts been flagged. Tell me I’m wrong man I’ve been playing since Waw on the damn Wii and I’ve never noticed this big of a decline in my game. So please tell me I’m wrong
Mb if spelling isn’t all there I’m watching this vid in my car well driving
I’ve always been banned for cheating/hacking at the beginning of each cycle (I don’t cheat) but this year I’ve been comm banned since the start. They’d rather silence a player then lose a player because they cheat🤦♂️
I wish I could tell you that you're wrong, but unfortunately, I can't. I'm also not spending a single cent on this trash. The last time Activision saw money from me was when I bought BO2. There's a reason you see people defending the game who own almost every skin and bundle-they're clearly getting a better experience. This isn’t some conspiracy theory; some of the patents show that players with skins are placed into specific lobbies. It could also be that NPCs are wearing those skins to encourage new players to buy them.
What’s not fair, though, is how the players with skins always seem to get the fastest kills, top frag, tank bullets, and have consistently good games. It feels like they’re having a much more stable, non-rigged experience. So, if you want to play like the good old days, you have to pay. The more money you spend, the easier the game becomes. I’ve never seen a guy who buys every bundle complaining about the game-they all love it, and to be honest, they're playing a totally different game.
A lot of people in the comments have confirmed this. I could’ve done this experiment weeks ago, but I refuse to give them any of my money. I’m too proud for that, honestly. I know it would get me easier lobbies and a less rigged experience, but it’s just not worth it.
And you know what’s messed up? People know this now. They know. Nowadays, people are more willing to spend money on games. What if most people think, “Hmm, $10 for this bundle isn’t that bad, and it’ll probably get me better lobbies”? And just like that, they're in the trap. They’ll start to feel like gods in the next rounds, and the system will analyze them, slowly pushing them back into rigged lobbies until they decide to buy again. It’s that simple. And the sad part is, people fall for it every. single. time.
Would not surprise if another pattern would be, people who seem to not have spent any money since couple months/years, are purposely put into rigged lobbies, so they eventually feel like they have to buy something? I wonder how many people are shadow / chat banned for not doing anything, and see how it correlates with them buying stuff in game. But idk about that, since the biggest no hands, and highly skilled players get banned as well for "nothing", and they bought microtransactions. All rigged.
@ thought so, it so shitty how they keep getting away with this and the skill based nades and ttk is not talked about enough, on skyline a guy threw a nade upstairs in p2 and I got hit by a while holding p3 downstairs lying behind the bar😐. We literally sound like a broken record but no one for activision cares to listen.
@ and good videos btw you should definitely diversify but I’m enjoying the content a lot as is👍
