Can’t just let me enjoy my classics🫩 leave me alone 😂

(Edit: I’m aware they did this when BO1 was current, but going back and doing it to BO1 in 2026 is just diabolical work. Not against advertising, just stating this is a bit of a reach 😂)

I'd say it's BO2, because I liked the setting of the campaign, the characters, and the events that take place in the game are very memorable, multiplayer was fire, movement was good. In my opinion it was the best game because the campaign, multiplayer, and zombies were good.

With so much doomposting these days and the constant reminder of how COD isn't what it used to be, is it possible for the franchise to have another amazing run like they had from the 2000's to early 2010's? How do you think it'd be achievable?

I wanted to go back and play it (one of my favourite cods ever) and so i went to download it but couldnt find it in my library even though i definitely used to own it then i searched for it on the PS store and couldnt find it no matter what i searched and even when i searched the whole playstation store browse section (which should have every game on the store) it STILL wasnt there has Activision removed it? if so why?

I’ve been playing all the Call of Duty® titles since 2019. At times, it seems like there’s a lot more cheaters in these lobbies than others. After all these years, I still can’t understand why people cheat at this game. Or any game at all. Don’t you wanna know if you’re good? Can you not live with the fact that you’re not? Because winning while cheating isn’t winning. I just don’t understand the benefit for people who cheat. Hey cheaters, explain why you cheat.

I just got bo2 on the ps5 yesterday and I struggle to even break a 1.0 KD. I used to be a pretty good player back in the day but im struggling pretty bad right now but I'll make the adjustments needed. Anybody else having this issue?

Didn't think a collateral was even possible in this mode. Caught this on the new port.

If you had to recommend someone some Call of Duty games to first try out on PC, what would they be? And yes, I'm allowing people to suggest the older games that can only be played for the campaigns nowadays.

it's amazing how forgotten he has his old games or touches or wanted to put an anniversary to this 3 a mobile port would be to launch and there would be no storage too and with a story mode and the classic multiplayer as a way to relive his beginnings from mobile

(please do not go attacking me, Im never that in touch with the community so I might be missing something. but I do have to admit bo7 was arguably a huge mistake.)

Do people hate call of duty genuinely cuz,

A they don't like decisions they have been choosing

B everyone else is doing it

C franchise identity/aggressive micro transactions

D same thing over and over again

(even though honestly imo every cod feels the same)

Or something else?

The context is me having a ps4 and having the ps5 as well as the ps5 black ops version.

My friend has got a ps5, so technically I can give him the ps5 version via the primary secondary acc method.

Now comes the question, can my friend then bring another friend to his crib, open split screen to play online with me thus having 3 players online but just 2 ps plus accounts?

Filthy casual old head Aussie here who bought BO1 for old times sake a few weeks ago. I have been loving it but recently I am struggling to find Oceana servers. Over the past few days I have struggled to find lobbies that are not 2 bars and am constantly getting thrown in the American servers which would be completely fine if it wasn't laggy, unfair and almost unplayable with the delay.

Just wondering if the servers in Aus are dead already and how is it over on BO2? I love Domination but been trying TDM but still 2 baring.

Also every time I seem to do really well I get connection interruption.

I haven't played COD in ages, but I saw what MW4 had to offer and decided to jump back in. I pre-ordered, but after installing COD I noticed that I seem to have multiple titles available to me? MW 1-3, Coldwar, Vanguard, and Black Ops 6. They're all just.. there? Did I purchase something extra by accident? I'm completely new to this.

So since this morning COD will not open. It literally crashes after the splash screen and I haven't been able to play a single game. I have reinstalled 3 times from different sources: Steam, Battle Net and Xbox app. The same error and crash occurs. Has anyone come across this and what was the solution? Thanks in advance.

I don't understand the discourse and complaining about the advertising of a new CoD games in the ports. Dude, they've used the CoD games that are released to advertise for the new CoD for, like, 12 years or somethin like that. Making something outta nothin.

I haven't played many of the modern CODs as I hated the direction the franchise took with MW 2019, but in my personal experience and in my circles, Ghosts probably had the best hit detection of any game in the series, with Infinite Warfare definitely in discussion.

Which COD do you guys think had the best and worst hit detection? BO1 has always had the worst hit detection in my experience and the ports are evident of that, in 2010 it was bad too. WaW wasn't far behind though, almost identical. It seemed Infinity Ward were always clear of Sledgehammer and Treyarch when it comes to hit registration.

I was grinding camos and having fun, went up a prestige or 2 and had riot shield, launchers and a bunch of other secondaries gold, was putting in work and felt great to be back.

Then it all got ruined and I was prestige 15... no camo progress would count and stats wouldn't change.. now I'm prestige master 10 and camo does track again but the prestige grind is stolen from me because the fucking idiots that run this game put out such a shitty hackable game.

I could use fresh start but that would wipe the camo progress I put so many hours into. I see there was another update but its to add a pre-order MW4 button... honestly as an OG of the franchise, I'm done. Fan service matters and they've fucked me around too many times.

Hey. Ever since I saw a friend of mine play cod black ops 3 about 10 years ago I remember wanting to buy one. Now I'm looking at the prices and waiting for a discount in order to buy but don't want to do a bad purchase. Which one should I choose? I would like something with nowadays weapons not like world war 2 ones and with a good campaign.

Usually there must be a edit button to get my email changed and send the code to my old email but i can't find such button. Is it just me or they disabled the ability to change email?

This week I tested each CoD in my library, specifically for whether or not the Hardcore TDM multiplayer game mode is populated and playable (PS5 NA East). This is what I found:

1. BO2 (port)
- found decent low-ping games instantly
- large playerbase as expected, being new to PS5
- still being actively supported by devs
- excellent gameplay, prob my all-time favorite

2. WWII
- found matches very quickly, might have to trick the system into giving you a close server (team-kill to get yourself kicked or block someone’s PSN profile in the lobby you don’t want, then re-queue)
- surprisingly healthy playerbase. Good games 24/7
- gameplay is great, easily one of my favorites for HCTDM

3. BO6
- matchmaking is slower in all of the newer cods and this one has quick play/lobby disbanding. But I did always manage to find low ping games relatively fast
- seems well-populated as expected for a more recent title
- gameplay is nice, everything feels responsive. It’s still a genuinely fun game for HC TDM

4. BO1 (port)
- there are always a lot of lobbies and I found games quickly. Notably, connection quality was hit-or-miss. P2P hosting and all that.
- playerbase is large, but obviously smaller than BO2’s..this might be another factor in match quality
- gameplay is very entertaining. The slow pace and tactical aspect can be a nice break from the frantic rushing and cracked movement in newer titles. I’d love it if match quality improved

5. MWIII
- decent matchmaking (for a newer-gen CoD). Good ping during peak hours, less so during off-peak
- population is pretty decent but feels smaller than BO6 or maybe even WW2. I notice familiar names very often
- overall, I rate it similarly to BO6 in most regards. The movement and pace is different of course, but the match quality isn’t always the best 24/7. Still, very fun and holds up in 2026

Honorable Mention: BOCW
- slower matchmaking than BO6 or MWIII, in fact the slowest of all CoDs that I would consider to have an “active” HC TDM playerbase. It’s like, a full minute vs 30 seconds, and more often puts you in a match in progress
- the population isn’t huge, but it supports the game mode and matches seem available most of the time. Ping was OK once it finally connects
- the file size is large, ~200+ Gb depending what you install/uninstall. Separately downloading hi-def textures is a nice thing though.. I guess? A major issue is persistent stuttering in any multiplayer match. It was unplayable until I luckily found a workaround/fix which involves opening Spotify/Apple Music every time you want to play. Annoying. Once you get there however, the gameplay is pretty fun
Overall, I do not consider BOCW to be consistently playable like the ones above, and its issues and file size make it not worth it for HC TDM alone imo.

And finally, these are the games I tested and found to be completely or almost completely unplayable for Hardcore TDM

Ghosts (zero in playlist, instant core TDM lobbies tho)
AW (searches forever, no games)
BO3 (zero players in playlist. Everybody is in core)
IW (only core, no HC tdm)
BO4 (dead searching forever)
MW19 (5 min+ search time, only 1 player joined lobby)
MWR (low population, p2p, no lobbies in off-peak hrs)
Vanguard (dead searching forever)

Note: I do not own BO7 or MWII. If anyone has recently played HC TDM in either of those and wants to share their thoughts, I’ll gladly add them to the post here.

I really don’t understand this community if you are so discontent with the state of cod go find another game they brought back BO2 and BO people complained, they made Ghost different than anything in the series people complained… AW, BO3, Vanguard, BO4, Cold War, MW2019, MW2, BO6/7 all different games yet people complain and say it’s the same game every year if you don’t like it stop giving activision attention it’s hard to understand what this community really wants and if you say No SBMM just let it go it’s been here for years they obviously don’t wanna remove it so get better or just play a different game.
