CoD pros ACHES and SlasheR hit out at Modern Warfare over lack of updates Veteran Call of Duty professionals Patrick \u2018ACHES\u2019 Price and Austin \u2018SlasheR\u2019 Liddicoat have criticized developers Infinity Ward over the lack of updates Modern Warfare has received since its release. Modern Warfare, as with every new Call of Duty title, has received some criticism from the professional community for some aspects that pros do not think are well suited to competitive play. There has long been frustration among pro players over the communication \u2013 or lack thereof \u2013 that they receive from Call of Duty developers. Many argue that the developers do not do enough to help optimize the game for competitive play. It seems that Modern Warfare has not bucked the trend, as pro players SlasheR and ACHES lashed out at Infinity Ward on January 18. The two men, who play for OpTic LA and LA Guerrillas respectively, criticized the latest CoD installment for its lack of updates to improve the game from a competitive perspective. The criticism came about as a result of a tweet from London Royal Ravens\u2019 Rhys \u2018Rated\u2019 Price, who says that pros were \u201ctold there\u2019s a slide cancel patch [coming] on the 22nd\u201d, only to be told that there\u2019s no time scale on a fix. Told there’s a slide cancel patch on the 22nd get close to the 22nd “”No time line on the slide cancel patch”” only call of duty. \u2014 Rhys Price (@Rated_COD) January 18, 2020 In response, Black Ops 3 world champion SlasheR said that he\u2019s \u201ccurious\u201d to see if Modern Warfare ever gets a patch that benefits professional players. \u201cA week out from the league and still nothing,\u201d he finished. \u201cGotta laugh it off.\u201d ACHES echoed SlasheR\u2019s comments, saying: \u201cBro we legit haven\u2019t gotten a single update that improves the game for us. And we still aren\u2019t gonna before [Minnesota]! Insane.\u201d Bro we legit haven\u2019t gotten a single update that improves the game for us. And we still aren\u2019t gonna before MN! Insaneee. \u2014 PATTYP (@ACHES) January 18, 2020 The inaugural Call of Duty League season starts on January 25 in Minnesota. Despite being 3 months on from Modern Warfare\u2019s release, some pro players argue that, from a competitive perspective, the game has not changed at all. Past games like CoD: WWII have been criticized for pandering to professional opinions more than they should. Other games have been criticized for not doing enough. While it\u2019s a fine line for developers to tread, it seems ACHES and SlasheR are among those who believe Modern Warfare is not doing enough for the professional scene.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
