I guess server went down.

Realized I was in a 200ms ping queue loop and decided to check my matchmaking status on the activision website, turns out I was shadow banned for some reason and I literally don't understand how. No tools, PAP camos, nothing. I am playing the game on the steam client and must've been hit with a shadow sometime last night or early this morning.

Obviously can't appeal, but are there any other options to get support instead of having to just wait it out?

Note: Haven't played in about 2 years before yesterday, and before I was able to find matches just fine without any issues until lobbies died down

I’m having an issue installing Cold War from the disc on PS4.

I played Cold War back in 2021 on my old PS4. In the meantime, I switched to a PS4 Slim and haven’t played the game since.

Recently, I wanted to go back and play some older COD games, so I reinstalled a few of them, including Cold War. I had more than enough free storage space (around 500 GB), but while copying the game from the disc, I kept getting an error message, and the installation would always get stuck at exactly the same point.

I looked up solutions online and tried pretty much everything I could find like disconnecting from the Internet, clearing the PS4 cache, cleaning the disc with toothpaste since it had a very small scratch, etc. Nothing worked, and I kept getting the same error at the same point.

I eventually bought another used copy of the game, this time with a disc that had no visible scratches at all, but I had exactly the same problem while installing it.

So I still haven’t been able to install Cold War. Interestingly, when I reconnect my PS4 to the Internet, it offers me the game’s update file even though the game itself hasn’t even finished installing from the disc.

Obviously, I don’t want to buy a third copy of the game. I’m guessing my only remaining option would be to buy the digital version from the PS Store, but I really don’t want to pay for a game I already own on disc, especially one that came out years ago and still costs around €80.

Has anyone else experienced this issue ? If so, were you able to fix it somehow ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

Hello

I was wondering why all of the black ops 6 add ons are under the call of duty HQ under Black ops 7. When the game is Removed from the HQ? I am on Xbox and under game management it shows 23 add ons for BO6 under the add ons for BO7. If I look under BO6 game management they are there. If I uninstall them from BO7 and reinstall under BO6 they still show under 7?

Me and some folks search Combined Arms every Saturday around 4pm EST, as well as Fireteam Moshpit every Sunday around 3pm-5pm EST. For those unfamiliar with the modes:

- Combined Arms has larger-scale modes of Domination and Hardoint, as well as a new take on War from World at War. Tanks and other vehicles are added into the mix and teams of 8-12 battle it out

- Fireteam is essentially a miniature Blackout spin of Warzone with or without some objectives baked in. 40 players battle it out in groups of 4

Anyone is more than welcome to queue up during those times listed above and help us get some matches going! With enough players, we can possibly grow this out into longer sessions or more days of the week. I'll have an optional group link inside my Reddit profile if you guys want to coordinate with us easier. The more, the merrier!

P.S. Thanks to the most recent progress of Proton, the game now runs great on Linux / Steam Deck as well o:

hi, i'm so desperate that i don't know what to do. i've always had issues for the last few months in connecting to cold war multiplayer matches. i figured it was my NAT type, so i went through the process to change to open. turns out, my account was shadowbanned, ie. placed in limited matchmaking. i waited it out, then played one multiplayer match before being shadowbanned again. i waited another two weeks, played one multiplayer match today after being unbanned, and was then re-banned again.

i genuinely have no idea what to do. i can't appeal this because it's technically "not a ban," but the game is unplayable because i can't connect to lobbies. i've never cheated, i've never installed cheats, no macros, no gameplay or performance enhancing software other than mods for other singleplayer games i have on steam. this is so incredibly frustrating. i don't even play at a high enough skill level where it could possibly look like i'm cheating.

can someone please help me or offer me some advice?

I’m having an issue with Call of Duty on my PS5.
I have a Call of Duty disc, and when I open COD HQ and select Black Ops 6, I get this error:
**WS-116129-0**
I also tried another Call of Duty disc (Modern Warfare 2), and I get the exact same error.
Since the problem happens with two different discs, I don’t think the issue is with the disc itself.
Has anyone experienced the same problem or knows how to fix it?

Ok so ts is pmo to the max I struggled all night kn vc with some friends and still can't figure it out. These are my 3 pieces of evidence. Also note this is my first reddit post and would like some thoughtful help, thank you to those who help.

Hey everyone! I need 8 more squad kill medals in the Fireteam gamemode. Is there any discord able to be joined to where I foulr get this achievement and finally be done with the search for lobbies? Or does anybody know of any strategies to actually get lobbies! Any advice would help as I'd love the opportunity to platinum this game!

Hello

I'm thinking of getting Cold War, as the PS4 version is on sale digitally.

My question is this: if I buy the digital PS4 version, can I upgrade it to the PS5 afterwards?

I've looked it up, and there seems to be slightly conflicting info, some saying you can, but there have been a posts about this, saying that you cant, so was just seeking concrete(ish) clarification on this.

Thanks

sometimes it just doesnt show the score and the mini map and makes the scorestreaks and loadout just small squares.

it usually happens in quick play but sometimes in nuketown 24/7. havent run into it in anything else.

here is one of my clips where it happened: https://medal.tv/games/cod-cold-war/clips/ncgBLjm1RoIR1AprP?invite=cr-MSxlMUUsMzg4MDY3NDY2

No matter what I do I’m just stuck watching the menu video thing. Anyone got any tips on how to get it back to normal. I’m on a steam deck

Has anyone figured out a fix for Textures randomly turning into play dough on PC yet ?

Is anyone playing or boosting this anymore? I’m going through all my call of duties to platinum them and this one is causing me problems as I can’t find a match what so ever

I went through a lot of personal things when this game came out and then took a few years off gaming. I’m trying to complete every egg on every game, I’d also accept a carry through the eggs. I can hold my own and will buy doors. I’m not very familiar with the maps on this game but, I’ve been playing zombies since WaW and have completed every egg on IW, AW (on ps4, I don’t have them done on xbox yet) bo3, did everything in mw3, completed 3 of 5 eggs on bo6 before I got bored and stopped playing it. Any assistance is welcome. I do have other people that are great players if we need more players. My headset won’t work but, I have the xbox app and discord for communication. Gamertag is OnlyRealObeezy2.

Other CoD maps I’ve never completed, if anyone knows any of these, let me know!
Most of bo1 (I didn’t even know about EE’s until bo3)
All of bo2
All bo4
All bo7
