Sounds like this would release towards the end of 2023 since there will be no COD title next fall.
Yep one thing I’ve learned over the years never take off work for a COD launch.I'm excited for this game despite the cheater issues. That said, I'm not expecting the servers to be able to handle the launch.
I assume that's not good.RIP

Hate giving out my number to anything. Some stores here when you check out ask you for a phone number. I always say no lol.As if we needed it, but even more reason not to buy it.
A phone number to play a video game is ridiculous.
I don’t care if they have my phone number, but why do they need it?The problem is a lot of pre-paid plans don't seem to support Activision's system. Mine does fortunately, but some like Cricket and Mint don't.

Are LGBTQ people offended by that company?I have Straight Talk, it worked when I tried out Overwatch 2.
Still popular?I reinstalled Black Ops Cold War to scratch that Hardcore MP itch, and came across some astonishingly good players. Obviously cheating. Making me think twice about picking up MW2 now.
I’ve been play Vanguard MP lately haven’t ran across people doing anything questionable and it seems like SBMM is not as strict in this game.I reinstalled Black Ops Cold War to scratch that Hardcore MP itch, and came across some astonishingly good players. Obviously cheating. Making me think twice about picking up MW2 now.
Yep. No issues finding matches.Still popular?
I guess at this point I'll probably go with Xbox instead of PC, and disable crossplay. Hopefully I won't miss 120fps.It isn't unusual to see older games dominated by cheaters. I don't think their current anti-cheat started until Vanguard and later in WZ so it isn't a shock all the cheaters are on CW. From what I understand, their anti-cheat is actually pretty decent.
Maybe they will add 120fps option to Xbox?I guess at this point I'll probably go with Xbox instead of PC, and disable crossplay. Hopefully I won't miss 120fps.
Correction: On all 3 next gen consoles. Series S has a 120fps mode too.I think it already supports 120 on both next gen consoles

With the current generation of consoles being the most powerful that they have ever been, players have come to expect a level of quality from games. Thisattackofthefanboy.com
And I still haven’t upgraded my TV to support 120. I like my TV too much.Correction: On all 3 next gen consoles. Series S has a 120fps mode too.
SMS Security Policy
A text-enabled mobile phone number is required to play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II on PC. Existing Call of Duty®: Warzone™ players that have previously verified their account will not be required to provide any additional information to access Modern Warfare II and Warzone™ 2.0.
The SMS policy for Modern Warfare II and Warzone 2.0 on Battle.net is the same as the requirement for Call of Duty: Warzone on PC, which was implemented in May 2020. A mobile phone number must be linked to your Steam Account to play Modern Warfare II on that platform.
SMS verification is critical to our anti-cheat enforcement efforts, tackling illicit account creation at its source. This helps our security team to maintain account and game security in order to provide a safe, fair, and fun gaming experience for all our players. In August 2022, we updated the SMS policy for new players of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019), requiring a text-enabled mobile phone number to play the game. Prior to this change, new accounts in Modern Warfare could access Warzone without a SMS security check. As the illicit account market adjusted to our security enforcement, #TeamRICOCHET started seeing more cheaters attempt to access Warzone from Modern Warfare to bypass the SMS policy, so the security team recommended the update to further combat the illicit account market.
The SMS requirement for game access is used for security purposes only. Call of Duty does not use SMS verification data for marketing purposes.
