MODERN WARFARE II COMMUNITY UPDATE: LAUNCH

quote:

---

We have been blown away by your response to Modern Warfare II’s Campaign Early Access that began last week. It has been amazing to see the reception from the community and passion for our story.



Firstly, we cannot say thank you enough to the fans that took the time to play our game– we had a record-breaking number of players in our Beta, playing more matches than ever before. We also gathered invaluable feedback from our fans, and want to take this opportunity to highlight some of the changes we’ve made to Modern Warfare II Multiplayer since the Beta:



Enemy Visibility

We have added diamond icons above the heads of enemies. This should make it easier for players to clearly identify opponents in the game.

Additionally, we’ve continued to tweak lighting and contrast for improved enemy visibility.



Audio

We’ve shortened the overall range of footstep audio which will allow enemy players to get closer to targets before they are able to detect footsteps. We have also continued to tweak teammate footstep audio, which will now be quieter following feedback from the Beta.

The in-world activation sound effect volume range for the Dead Silence field upgrade has been drastically decreased.



Third Person

Following feedback from Beta, aiming down sights will now stay in third person POV for low-zoom optics. Only high-zoom optics (beginning with the ACOG and higher) and special optics such as Hybrids and Thermals will revert to first person POV. We believe this will enhance the third person experience while keeping the gameplay balanced. The feedback on this mode has been very positive, and we will continue to explore its use as a modifier.



Weapons

We have continued to tweak weapons across the game following both feedback from Beta players and game data. Players can expect more specifics on weapon tuning as we continue to support post-launch.

UI

We have been working hard on numerous updates to our UI that make accessing and customizing your loadout more seamless. We’ve made improvements to navigation of menus and will continue to optimize our UX.



Movement

Slide, ledge hang, and dive have been further refined. We’ve also addressed some movement exploits following Beta.



Matchmaking

We have implemented some changes that aim to reduce lobby disbandment between matches. We look forward to testing this at a large scale and getting feedback.



We will continue to provide updates through launch, and begin tracking all live issues on our Trello board for MW2, which we will share soon.



On behalf of the studio and our partners, THANK YOU for playing #MWII.



Stay tuned for more information on Warzone 2.0, DMZ, Raids, and MORE… and follow Infinity Ward channels for updates.

I can’t log in to my activision account. I set up 2FA with the google app a while back. Somehow it’s not on there now but I can’t log in without it.

Anybody have any ideas? I can’t figure out how to get any actual help from activision.

There are backup codes but they get emailed to you once then never again and I must have lost the email. Some people online say activision can send you new codes but how the hell do you contact them?

urgh..I just finished restarting after changing my settings and it not working...

will try the address trick

that worked..

There should be some numbers too. Mine is EBell#11710

yeah, it sucks. 4 business day wait.

I'm excited



I'll be playing this on PC, may get a copy for Xbox just to play on the couch. I haven't been this excited over a CoD release in years.

y'all are lucky. i can't play til midnight. i was thinking PC folks would play at 5/6 o'clock, but i did my math wrong in the timezone conversion.

I mean I’m going to stay up so I can play for a few hours but why the frick can’t these assholes just do a common sense release at like 9:00 PM ET?
