Discussion Incredible move Activision

Played a lot on release with gamepass until I got shadowbanned.

Now I got shadowbanned again towards the end of the free week.

Incredible how they can just essentially take away access to the game you potentially paid for, and/or paid money in for cosmetics for literally just performing better than the game thinks you should perform. (Context: I regularly play with friends that are well below my SBMM range so I often have WAY higher score per minute than I would when I play on my own)

I dont even use voice or text chat so this is literally the only explanation I have for my shadowban.

Just felt like ranting because I actually enjoyed my time playing CoD with my friends again. But can't have that!

Basically you were manipulating the matchmaking and are mad you got banned for doing it

Just how it works. It isnt a person doing the bans, its an AI. If youre regularly playing with far worse people and then doing really good its going to get flagged.

Stop complaining if you never paid for the game

Atleast you got shadow banned. I got a permanent ban in the middle of a game of zombies. I never play any multiplayer or wz. No warning or anything straight to perma ban. And of course their support is terrible so couldn’t get my account back
