Activision Kills Call of Duty Mod
- Activision cancels 'Modern Warfare Remastered' mod, causing backlash.
- Gamers review-bomb 'Modern Warfare Remastered' on Steam.
- Community outraged as highly-anticipated 'Call of Duty' mod gets scrapped.
In a surprising move that has left the gaming community reeling, Activision has issued a Cease and Desist order against the creators of the H2M Modern Warfare Remastered mod, just one day before its scheduled launch on Steam. This mod, which was set to enhance the multiplayer experience by incorporating content from Modern Warfare 2, had generated significant buzz and driven sales of Modern Warfare Remastered to new heights, making it one of Steam's top-selling games. The H2M mod aimed to fill a gap left by Activision, which had only released the campaign for Modern Warfare 2 Remastered, neglecting the multiplayer aspect. The mod promised to bring back classic gameplay mechanics and a wider arsenal of weapons, offering fans a nostalgic experience that Activision had not provided. However, the abrupt shutdown of the project has left many in the community feeling betrayed and frustrated. FaZe's Twitter account expressed the collective sentiment, urging Activision to reconsider its decision, which they believe is detrimental to both the company and its players. Critics argue that the move not only harms the mod creators but also risks alienating the loyal Call of Duty fanbase, as it undermines the goodwill generated by the mod's anticipation. While acknowledging the importance of copyright protection, many gamers view Activision's decision as misguided and detrimental to its reputation. As the community rallies against this decision, the future of the Call of Duty franchise and its relationship with its players hangs in the balance.
