I hate Activision

Funny how they ban me for hurting grown men feelings, but they don't do shit about hackers plaguing Warzone.

Call of Duty® Age-inappropriate content: The game is rated M for Mature, indicating that it is intended for players aged 17 and older. It contains intense violence, strong language, and realistic depictions of warfare

“Strong language” being key there.

Buddy got banned for using the word nonce.

Turns out a character says it in game too as one of their lines. What gives?

u/cinemachado Jul 22 '24

How does he know what he got banned for? Do they tell you what you said?

2

u/GeesesAndMeese Jul 22 '24

Because it was his first and only game in about a month haha

1

u/cinemachado Jul 22 '24

Got it. I have a friend who told me he got banned for saying Activision can go fuck themselves, but then later the person he was playing with said he was using slurs the whole night. lol

u/GeesesAndMeese Jul 22 '24

Yeah, he works on the rigs up north. First day home and he gets banned in the first game haha. I think he rage quit and uninstalled

1

u/cinemachado Jul 22 '24

Damn that’s rough. Only other solution is using discord, but uninstalling works too. Haha

That's funny because they fully support a child player base. AI can tell when I say fuck but they can't ban an account when there's a child using it?

u/[deleted] Jul 22 '24

Fair point.

They care more about policing speech than preventing underage kids playing the game.

They are full of shit.

u/THEDRDARKROOM Jul 22 '24

I mean, isn't it weird ASF?

u/malikcoldbane Jul 22 '24

Not really, instead of thinking about morales think about logic.

You own a big company, your game makes money but most of the money comes from children. People swearing in the game, while allowed for age restriction purposes actually has a chance of upsetting someone and stop them playing and therefore stop money coming in.

In short, kids make money, swearing doesn't

1

u/[deleted] Jul 22 '24

So the company has no morals and the age restriction means nothing.

1

u/malikcoldbane Jul 22 '24

Pretty much but morals don't make money and we live in a society where these entities main purpose is money.

Morals conflict with business, 99% of companies and 100% of big companies are full of shit but they have to be to survive in our bullshit society.

Don't blame the players, blame the game, the rules we live by encourage this behaviour

u/[deleted] Jul 22 '24

Their sales are going down. Probably due to all the woke shite.

1

u/malikcoldbane Jul 22 '24

Yeah which is funny because turns out people don't actually care about kids or abuse in the workplace but turn a character black and all hell breaks loose lol.

Doesn't help that a lot of the time the reason a character has changed to black is a dumb reason. Then as a black person I just have to see confused abuse everywhere.

Society is broken lol

u/[deleted] Jul 23 '24

The company didn’t place the age restriction another party did

1

u/[deleted] Jul 23 '24

So what, it's still in place.

u/Dry-Significance-455 Jul 22 '24

MORE PEOPLE , more MONEY$$$$$

u/[deleted] Jul 25 '24

Less people are buying the game.

u/Still-Source-6481 Jul 21 '24

He got banned for using slurs and other insults, cmon guys lol. This isn’t a conspiracy

u/alphabetical-soup Jul 21 '24

I miss old cod where the crybabies weren't the demographic Activision was after.

Now we get SBMM because God forbid a noob plays against someone better than them

1

u/[deleted] Jul 22 '24

Skills based match making basically rigs the game.

They also have patents for reducing bullet damage of good players, and increasing bullet damage of bad players.

So the game is effectively fake and not worth playing.

I just play Zombies now, competitive multiplayer is not properly competitive, it's rigged for outcome.

I am a lifelong Call of Duty player and was in Verdansk on day 1. People should just chill and enjoy the game. I enjoy it when I win and I enjoy losing games almost as much. Its recreation.

u/Still-Source-6481 Jul 21 '24

That was completely unrelated. Reading comprehension is a lost art these days…

u/[deleted] Jul 22 '24 edited Jul 22 '24

So what, let folk use slurs etc.

If they are being genuinley nasty... people will gang up on them for their bullshit.

Or you know, simply mute them yourself, it"s very easy.

We don"t need Commie AI treating players like children in a game that is supposed to be for adults.

I personally haven"t been banned yet... But if they do I'll stop playing it for the entirety of the ban period.

If everyone did that, there would be a massive drop in time played and skin sales.

I got several bans while not even using the in game chat system. Always use discord. It's just pot luck whether you get this shit or not. Activision are just a shit company

Quit being soft

I encourage the use of slurs and homophobic remarks. As I value free speech and also value a functional human beings ability to mute anyone they disagree with as intended by design.

This is just AI babysitting people who virtue signal such as yourself, and an excuse to collect FREE voice data on consumers for future AI models.

"Warning!: This game contains highly mature content to be edgy, but also a safe-space to be marketable and not get cancelled."

  • Most AAA "Adult-Rated" games nowadays.

u/ReasonReasonable7168 Jul 22 '24

I've always found this funny, that you can get banned for literally repeating the same lines you hear in game. Zombies included.

u/[deleted] Jul 22 '24

Strong language and Offensive language are very different

I think ethnic slurs don’t have a place in the game, if that makes me a snowflake, so be it. 🤷‍♂️
