The Modern Warfare 3 beta has ended, with the Call of Duty fanbase mostly excited about the upcoming release, despite a few complaints about certain changes they want to be made, like improved spawns. However, now that they are forced to return to older games like the recent Modern Warfare 2, they\u2019ve noticed some pressing issues that they hoped have been fixed for Modern Warfare 3, like the current spam reporting that is causing innocent players to be disconnected and shadow-banned. Spam reports are still in Modern Warfare 2 and players hate it One content creator was fed up with being reported and disconnected from games, posting a clip of his frustrating experience in MW: \u201cCall of Duty will die if this continues for another year.\u201d Other players related to this experience, with some talented Call of Duty players being punished for being better than their opponents through the Activision report system: \u201cYeh can imagine if they keep this system on MWIII, especially with the better movement, etc. Then the game won\u2019t last long at all.\u201d Fans of the Activision franchise pointed the blame at the developers\u2019s trust in players to ban cheaters and not exploit the system: \u201cPlayers should not be able to have the power to get others banned.\u201d However, in the past, there have been complaints about too little power to get rid of cheaters, especially on the PC port of the game, of too many hackers \u2013 particularly in Warzone. So, the Call of Duty fanbase appears to be split on whether increased report power is beneficial, but fan hype for the new game has overpowered worry for Modern Warfare 3 overall- especially with Activision ramping up their marketing for the game, collaborating with hit rapper 21 Savage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CoD players worried MW3 \u201cwill die\u201d if spam reports and shadow bans aren\u2019t fixed ActivisionModern Warfare 2 players are fed up with getting shadow-banned as a result of fraudulent spam reports, and worry it might feature in Modern Warfare 3 as well.
