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 evidenced by SteamDB data). Ahead of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6's second season launch, developers announced updates to their anti-cheat efforts, revealing over 136,000 account suspensions since the November 2024 introduction of ranked mode. Ongoing anti-cheat improvements are also in development.

Further updates include server configuration enhancements, aiming for improved connection stability.

However, this positive outlook is met with skepticism. Leading content creators are publicly questioning the developers' claims, while Reddit threads express player dissatisfaction with perceived minimal improvements to server quality and matchmaking.

Player frustration with Call of Duty is widespread, with community resentment directed at SBMM (Skill-Based Matchmaking) and EOMM (Engagement Optimized Matchmaking). This erosion of trust is undeniable, and Activision's ability to effectively address these issues remains uncertain.
