It genuinely seems like the Call of Duty haters this year just want everyone to acknowledge that MWIII is a DLC so they can be validated. I don’t understand why people care so much about wording the game as “expansion” vs “full game” but that seems to be the center of the hate.

Visibility in MW3 is an issue that SHG should address at some point, but in the August build I played, when you ADS, there was a red outline on enemies and blue on friendlies. Visibility was not a problem, and SHG devs told us it was good. So not sure why it was removed.

It is truly remarkable that we're almost one year from COD Next event, and Infinity Ward/Raven have added things back that so many of us recommended at that event to Warzone - from health, movement, etc. It took them 11 months to *almost* get there. Just insane.

I opened up @charlieintel DMs again and closed it within 3 hours. Just can’t do it. The things people send. 🤨
