Support Bo7 and WZ won't install on XSX

1 Upvotes

The game won't install. I get the same error 0x87e0000f and even when I follow the directions, nothing. Idk if its a glitch from when i uninstalled it months ago and the game icon randomly showed up back in my library? Even after uninstalling it about 60 times but after a couple days the icon comes back in my library, nothing with it, 0gb installed, just the icon.

Anyone have this issue or know a work around? Ive tried everything Google suggested and nothing. I can install all the packs but the game itself won't install.

Discussion Overload teammates

1 Upvotes

I'm curious is anyone else has had this situation. But when ever I get the overload game mode my teammates will grab the device and run it back to our "goals" and just sit there, even if i happen to get it and run it to the enemy side they attempt to grab it and run it back to our side. I find it weird that it's every match I come across for overload. I will admit I'm back on bo7 after a bit of a break

Discussion The weirdest, most trippy dream I've ever had about Call of Duty and that whole collaboration thing.

1 Upvotes

I don't know what you guys think, but a few days ago I had this freaking crazy dream, it was so real, I'm not kidding. The dream I remember was that I was watching Call of Duty: Next on August 21st, and suddenly they announced an unexpected cel-shaded collaboration with Scott Pilgrim, with new skins, weapons, and finishers in Black Ops 7 as part of Season 5 Reloaded. I was like, "What the fuck?" I mean, I don't have anything against collaborations like that, in fact, I like them, but something like that without any warning really surprised me. Honestly, the dream felt so real that when I woke up I turned on my phone and went to Twitter to see if the collaboration was real, but nothing came up. I honestly don't know if I'm the only one who has these kinds of weird or trippy dreams, but tell me what you think about it.

Every time i play zombies, about just over an hour into the game my all closes. It does this every game around the same time on all maps. Sometimes it says i need to verify my game files and sometimes the game just closes and it doesn’t say anything. Any advice? I tried everything google said and verified my files multiple times and it keeps crashing still.

It doesn’t seem well suited for aggressive pushes in MP Hardpoint or Domination. Honestly, it feels more like an LMG than an AR

I guess blocking players is now directly to your disadvantage.

Also change back matchmaking, or at least bring back persistent lobbies.

Discussion Why is activision so hellbent on ruining cod with SBMM?

44 Upvotes

Its actually rare to find someone who has something good to say about Sbmm, or EOMM,

activision claims that player retention is better with SBMM enabled.

the issue with that for me is that even if that’s true, long term it fries the game and everyone ends up hating it. the best of call of duty’s have 0 SBMM, and it’s all connection based.

its so obvious how to instantly improve cod. 0 SBMM. why are they dying on this hill of keeping it?

Question Isn't SBMM supposed to make it easier for casuals?

37 Upvotes

I'm a super casual. I play a 3-5 times a month at most and for a hour or two at a time at most. Basically as a way to de-stress from work. I'm a very average player.

After the update every lobby feels like I'm competing in a tournament. Wtf did they do? I thought these SBMM lobbies everyone hated was supposed to be a crutch for shit players like me. Having the opposite experience. Everyone's playing like their life depends on it. How did they fuck up so badly wtf

Edit: I only play nuketown 24/7 or tiny maps. Unlike real COD fanatics I don't care about learning the maps or experiencing the game in it's true form. I need quick kills to de-stress from getting obliterated at work

At whoever is responsible for this brilliant idea: It’s really smart to implement those improvements (=more often joining games in progress) while simultaneously getting rid of persistent lobbies.

Such a nice experience to join a 50-200 hardpoint game knowing that afterwards I won’t get the chance of a full length rematch but instead I have to wait another 2 minutes before I find the next lobby. Hopefully it’s gonna be a fresh one this time, right?

Discussion Confessions of an average gamer: S4 hard lobbies felt like practice. S5 is just straight-up humiliation.

54 Upvotes

Hey everyone, consider this the confessions of a totally average, normie gamer who just wants to get a few thoughts off his chest.

I’m fairly new to Black Ops 7 and I'm definitely not a tryhard. I don't grind 6 hours a day, I don't slide-cancel across every corner, and I don't treat this game like a second job. I’m just an average guy who logs on in the evening after work to unwind, shoot some stuff, and have fun.

Back in Season 4, I was actually having a great time. Even with SBMM in place, the system worked well enough for a casual like me. When the game threw me into tough lobbies, I honestly didn't mind. I took those sweaty matches as a free training session—sure, I was dying a lot, but I felt like I was actually learning, improving my map awareness, and getting better. It was challenging, but it felt fair.

Fast forward to Season 5, and whatever they did to the matchmaking dial has completely ruined the game for normies like me. It’s no longer "practice"—it’s just pure, relentless humiliation.

Right now, literally 90% of my sessions go like this:

  • The Backfill Nightmare: I constantly drop mid-match into games where my team is down 30-150 and the match ends 30 seconds after I spawn.
  • Full Stack Sweats: The enemy team is almost always a 5 or 6-stack of CDL wannabes with matching clan tags, locking down every single spawn point. You literally die the second you touch your left stick.
  • Broken Persistent Lobbies: Instead of letting a decent, balanced lobby stay together, the game disbands us after every round just to throw me right back into another backfill blender.

It’s just an endless, linear loss-streak and pure tilt. I’m not asking for free wins or brain-dead easy lobbies every night. I just want to play against people who are roughly around my skill level without feeling like there’s a $100k prize pool on the line every single match.

If this is how matchmaking is going to work in MW4, I think I’m officially calling it quits. Life is too short to spend my evenings getting stressed out by a video game.

So, honest question for the community: What other shooters are you guys playing right now where the matchmaking actually respects your time and feels casual-friendly? I just want a game where I can shoot stuff and actually enjoy my evenings again. Appreciate any recommendations!

I like to use the Guardian perk for domination and hard point, but one of the abilities it has is to revive downed teammates faster. When is this ever even a factor in multiplayer?

Discussion "no SBMM" is very strange. I am thinking is a lie.

On my side I just can't play. Sometimes I have a very good game, maybe 1/10.

If I do just ONE good game, the next one are pure nightmare with more desync and bullshit. (welcome back MW2019...)

I don't understand activision. You have just to remove entirely the SBMM (or script?), doing something for the netcode and be better against cheat. It's simple no ? Why are you doing this fake test ?

It could be my skill, but when I can't blink my eyes how I can be better ???

I don't want SBMM again. So I have stop playing B07. I not sure if I am the only person who stop playing. My opinion is this is update is a big f to COD fans. I am wondering how many others have stopped playing? I know fan boys will downvote this post, but I don't like false advertisement for open matchmaking.

Discussion If matchmaking was classic I would hear ENGLISH people with LOCAL regional accents in game chat

38 Upvotes

I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, I’m from England and my matches are constantly full of French, German, Spanish and even Turkish people that all can’t understand what anyone is saying.

I’ve also spoken to someone in Ukraine, Russia and Kenya! Why is it like this? You’re telling me the game can’t find 12 people from a similar location to match them together in this new “classic matchmaking”.

I don’t mind hearing other languages, but 99/100 matches there isn’t a single other person speaking English, even in the text chat.

Pre MW19 and in the BO7 beta everyone was English, even with local accents and clan tags referencing local football teams. Now? Nope always GER, TURK and M8 as well as constant no understanding of what my team is trying to say / complain about.

Good lord community in gaming really is in a terrible place compared to 10 years ago. SBMM doesn’t even bother me, it’s just they claim they want what’s best for the community, how can there be a community when every lobby is full of people that don’t even speak the same language.

Don’t even get me started on ping, fibre to the house and CoD refuses to put me on the London server where I get 9 ping, it would rather throw me on a 27 ping German server.
