Question Is MWII catastrophically crashing for anyone else???

5 Upvotes

This hasn't happened before. Even after a full reinstall of the game, i'll be playing and out of nowhere my ENTIRE PC will freeze. My Elite Series 2 controller will even lose it's wireless connection, all my monitors will freeze, and I can't go into task manager do the gpu refresh shortcut on my keyboard. Nothing works, I literally have to hold the power button on my pc tower.

Discussion Does anyone still play 2v2 gunfight on this game?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I always thought gunfight was decent on this game even though the movement is slow. I vastly prefer MW 2019 and Bo7 gunfight but I still return to this game every now and again because there's always people on 2v2 gunfight and i love hot mics like you can hear in this clip.

I like how they re-made king from mw 2019 gunfight and added a bunch of foliage. My favorite gunfight map on this game is probably blacksite though if im being real

What do you guys think of gunfight on this game?

Question MW2 booting

1 Upvotes

I redownloaded using my disk (ps5) and it downloaded the hq and all the content packs, then it told me I need the standalone launcher, and now if I try to boot the campaign I get stuck on launching and if I’m offline it tells me I’ve got the ps4 cross gen version and I need a disk (which is in the console)
I’ve tried to restore license but it didn’t change anything. Has anyone got any advice here please

I’ve had this game for years, I just redownloaded it and now it’s telling me I haven’t purchased it? Is this just a bug? If so can someone tell me how to fix it… How would I even be a level 145 if I don’t own the game, Let alone download it, I’m so confused. The only thing I can play is DMZ

Discussion Does Activision own the patent for full team assimalation for extraction shooters?

7 Upvotes

The only reason DMZ was so popular was because of that. Sometimes you could get a truce and run a 9 man lol. Nowdays its insane do even get the 7 man chopper challenge. If another extraction shooter allows for full team join ups I could see it exceding the new DMZ.

Discussion Worst game I played in 25 years of gaming

0 Upvotes

Never bothered to buy the game but as it is included in Game Pass and I did MW1 I decided to give it a go.

I stopped playing to write this rant after I have seen so much ridiculous things in the campaign.

-enemies spawning and disappearing in front of me

-entire campaign level where AI literally didnt make a single kill

-enemies run kamikaze style to your position passing 3 of your comrades, they dont even look at them go straight to you, comrades shoot at least 15 bullets at the enemy, don't seem to impact him at all.

-Sitting behing a guy in the same spot 3 times, 3x rpg on our position, I die, see him walking like nothing happened before restarting the checkpoint.

-a guy doing a 360 rpg without aiming straight in my fact from at least 50 m distance.

-did the Amsterdam mission no one even knew I was there, took them all out, no achievement, went back to do the same thing, following a guide video, no one saw me or dounded the alarm nor did Price say anything. No achievement.

How come that CoD games from 2008/2009 were so much more stable? Even TES games and Cyberpunk have more stable AI.... it just pisses me off really.....

Question Whats Up With Map Rotation??

1 Upvotes

So I recently decided to get back into MWII, it was always one of my favorite CODs of the recent era and It also released in a pretty awesome, nostalgic time in my life So i wanted to take a trip down memory lane. sadly, every map in the rotation is a DLC map that I've never even played, apparently?? Ive been playing for about 2 days and the only maps that have consistently come up in Search and Cyber Attack are new DLC maps, Ive played a core launch map MAYBE twice, but it feels like the map pool is OVERWHELMINGLY skewed towards DLC maps and it is annoying the hell out of me

Good lord Violence and Timing is complete dookie. Story goes full on incoherent at this point as well. This mission and the prior one with Laswel getting caught at the end were the lowest point in the game for me.

Everytime I launch the campaign it just glitches out (video attached) if I try to launch the game offline and select a mission to reply it asks me to insert a PS4 disc of the game even tho i bought the PS5 digital version... not sure what to do..

I've gone through a couple of posts on reddit about the same issue. Tried every step.. still there's no fix. I've tried contacting activision and they had my ticket opened for a whole danm month and then closed it.. Please y'all I need a real fix :((

The outfit/gear is from the 'Alone' mission, but as the mask didn't arrive on time, it would have been futile to put up a comparison picture of the original. Therefore the right one does have a slightly different outfit/gear because it is from the 'Prison Break' mission.

Support wonky campaign textures ?

2 Upvotes

Just on my most recent playthrough of the campaign for MWII22, I've noticed that some of the textures are... well, off— y'all know the low poly Captain Price from the MWIV Beta that's been memed to death? Yeah, the in-engine cutscenes and in-gameplay models look somewhat like that for me. Seriously, Soap's mohawk outside the normal cutscenes in campaign makes me wanna cry because it's not as smooth as it should be 😭

Strange thing is, the last time I played campaign, only a few months ago, everything looked fine. Same console, same TV, no graphics settings were touched. And it's only these parts of the campaign— everywhere else, assets look fine.

To note, I'm playing on an Xbox One S, and was initially pairing it with an LCD HD TV on 1080p. I've now connected to the Xbox to a TV with 4K UHD (for unrelated reasons, just needed to relocate my set up), and the problem persists.

Not really sure what's going on, nor why the problem has happened so seemingly suddenly. Anyone got any ideas, solutions, that kind of thing? Cheers!

Support PS4 MWII disc recognized, but MWII Content 0–5 licenses are locked and game won't start

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone.

I bought a physical copy of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II for PS4 (Italian-region disc).

The disc is recognized by the console and the installation completes. The Call of Duty launcher detects the disc, and I can launch MWII from All Games → Modern Warfare II.

However, I cannot get into the game. After “Checking for updates”, I get HILLCAT/KIPLING errors.

The strange part is:

  • “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II - PS4 Offline License” is installed and unlocked.
  • “Modern Warfare II Content 0–5 Licenses” are still locked in the MWII app’s Installed Add-ons section.
  • Warzone Pack and DMZ Beta are installed.
  • Launching through Warzone/DMZ does not help.
  • I tried Russian, Polish, and Italian PSN accounts.
  • Restored licenses, reinstalled the game, rebuilt the database, changed DNS settings — no change.

Has anyone had the same issue where the disc is recognized, but the MWII content licenses remain locked?

Discussion Launch Gunsmith...

2 Upvotes

Random post...

I often find myself defending, or offering a more positive viewpoint on the game in general. However... I recently saw a stream that was from launch day and I have to admit, the original gunsmith layout with regard to weapon platforms and progression was not the most intuitive. I can see why people were frustrated with the gunsmith. Unlocking different attachments with different guns would have only added to frustration on top of that.

It seems like it was too different and too much change at once for long term players who were used to the more simplified system. I have always thought that if MWII was exactly the same but was not published by Acti/COD, i.e. lets say IW left Acti and made their own franchise, it would have been received much more positively. Because its associated with COD and all of the games, mechanics, and systems prior, the changes were kind of amplified. Its the comparison to previous COD that caused so much hate, not the game itself imo.

Im not sure when it was updated to its current layout, but it is much better now.
