Call of Duty team banned over 135,000 accounts, but fans are sceptical

Call of Duty faces significant challenges, extending beyond simply dwindling player counts (as observed on SteamDB). Ahead of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6's second season launch, developers announced a crackdown on cheaters, reporting over 136,000 account suspensions since the November 2024 ranked mode introduction. Ongoing anti-cheat improvements are also underway.

Further updates promise enhanced server configurations and improved connection quality. However, skepticism remains high. Leading content creators are publicly questioning these claims, and Reddit discussions reflect a widespread player perception of minimal improvement in server performance or matchmaking.

Player frustration with Call of Duty is palpable, with terms like SBMM (Skill-Based Matchmaking) and EOMM (Engagement Optimized Matchmaking) becoming common criticisms. This erosion of trust presents a serious challenge for Activision, and its resolution remains uncertain.
