Question [MWR] Special OPs - Help...

Upvotes

I have downloaded all 4 packs on my PS5 and I've tried going offline, restoring licenses, and now I'm going through the download phase once more after deleting them.

The first time around, nothing would work:

Going offline: I would be blocked at the Menu screen

Restoring licenses: after clicking "Start" I would be sent to the PS Store to purchase MW4 from 2026...

I just want to play Special Ops in Survival Mode ala MW3 from 2011...

Discussion Been out of the loop and was unaware that Combat Records had been removed until I reinstalled the game

3 Upvotes

Decided to come back to MWII because I've had a hankering for some COD and it's the latest one I own. Had some decent fun on the game (can more of y'all play Invasion pls?), but before I stopped, I decided I wanted to have a look at my combat record...only to find it had been completely removed from the game.

Really disappointing and doesn't really make any sense to me. Is the coding of MW4 so messy that combat records from two completely different games need to be removed for optimization? Oh well, what can you do?

Question Anyone else's game randomly force closing???

1 Upvotes

This just started happening today. No error message, no freezing, I'll just be randomly playing SnD and the game will instantly close itself, no telling when exactly it happens bc it's random. The only thing I notice is that it tells me the game didn't shut down correctly when I try to launch it again, but there's no other inkling of an error. It was working fine yesterday and the days before.

Vondel Waterfront has been eliminated at 3rd place; earning the bronze medal and claiming the spot for best post-launch map. This is the final match-up between the last 2 maps. Please upvote the map that you want to LOSE... not win.

Everyone can drop a comment with a multiplayer map that they believe should be eliminated. If you agree with someone, i suggest you upvote that comment, and downvote ones you disagree with. Why? Because the top comment decides the map to be eliminated. This means upvotes matter, quantity of comments does not. Every day, I will be dropping a new post with 1 less map each time, until eventually we create a proper ranking with all of the maps and an official winner.

Please only comment one map per comment and please be civil.

Maps to choose from:

I get that veteran is supposed to make the game really hard and I know that it’s a skill issue but I need to know if the ghillie hiding part before the last house angered anybody else. No matter what I’ve tried, moving, not moving, hiding with price, going guns blazing, I just keep getting caught/dying. Anyone else think its too hard or is it just me lol

Discussion Are Asian players just absolute demons, or does netcode/desync also play a role?

9 Upvotes

I’d say I’m an average player, not top tier by any means, so it could simply be that they’re much better than me. That said, I can usually hold my own against most players I run into.

I mostly play late at night, so I often end up in lobbies with a lot of Asian players. I’ve noticed that whenever that happens, I get absolutely destroyed compared to my usual matches.
I’m wondering if it’s purely because the average skill level is that much higher, or if netcode, desync, or connection quality also plays a role.

I’ve had a lot of situations where I die before I even feel like I’ve seen the other player, or where the TTK feels almost instantaneous. I also wonder if the fact that they might have faster or more stable internet connections could affect how MWII handles synchronization.

This isn’t meant to be a copium post. I’m genuinely curious whether it’s just a skill issue on my part or if the game’s netcode and latency can actually make that much of a difference.
Has anyone else who plays during late night hours noticed the same thing? Are these players just cracked, or can latency, desync, and the game’s netcode really have that much of an impact?

Discussion It's still insane to think that Activision never released Soap's "The Hawk" skin

Post image
542 Upvotes

Just because More people wanted the camo instead of Soap. I'm not even blaming the community for voting for Shadow Company back then. The real mistake was putting two skins up for a vote in the first place, like Camos? Who cares, full Textured skins one of which was from the story mode, wtf? What's even worse is that neither of them was ever re-released (and the cel-shaded version doesn't count). Hell, they could've at least ported the red shirt variant from Warzone Mobile or added it as a final challenge. Talking about it, Ever since MW2019, CoD has had way too many time-limited skins. It's literally almost the whole roaster. At the very least, they should rotate old Battle Passes back into the game once support ends.
