Really makes you wonder when Infinity Ward boasted about their “ground breaking AI” in Ground War/Invasion in MWII - what if all this time the AI coded for the bots in GW/Invasion was primarily designed to learn real players behaviours and that’s why they were so proud of it? Because the AI bots in these PVE modes are definitely not the smartest and nothing too impressive, but maybe the reasoning behind that is because they’re just there to learn and collect data to apply into real matches. Food for thought

Bit of a mixup on your math there. When you took the 9 + 4 + 2 to come up with 15, that's not 15 percent, that's 15 out of 300. So about 5 percent of the player pool reached level 55.

The reason why the percentage of players with that achievement is so low is because: MW3 is not downloaded as a standalone game; it's downloaded and forcefully bundled with Warzone. This means that all of Warzone players who don't play MW3 on Xbox are included in the achievement percentage. This results in a ridiculously low percentage on the Level 55 achievement despite the high density of Level 55s.

Counterpoint to this argument would be that, the people who owned MW2 or WZ don't become duplicates after buying MW3. The only people who would raise the overall player count on the platform would be people who didn't own MW2 or downloaded WZ after release and the new WZ isn't even out so that has to be a low percentage. Which to me would indicate: a) MW3 sold like ass; b) the game has poor retention due to people dropping it early or refunding, neither of which is good from Activision's point view.

As someone who has 1,000 hours in MW2/DMZ, I will say that it IS fun, but for an entirely different reason. Just a heads up, I am not a fan of this game nor do I think it is good. I think that the reason why it is fun is stupid and creates a skill floor so fucking high that it's pointless to even make the journey there. The only reason why I even did this was because this was the only game me and my friends had so I spent a lot of time playing it with them. Tl;Dr is that you need to have hundreds of hours in MP and understand literally every single detail and have everything unlocked and understand what the game is actually trying to be played as and be in an urban area to have ANY fun. In the top 1% lobbies I get into, you need to know these concepts about the game in order to have any semblance of fun: 1. You do not play casually. Every game is going to be competitive. 2. You must understand each and every minute system in the game. This includes managing perk packages, different attachments on guns and the difference in stats and tuning between them, the maps, the other player's playstyle, your team's playstyle, the game mode you're playing, etc. 3. YOUR PLAYSTYLE is dependent on your team's playstyle and the enemy team's playstyle. You are expected to carry your team. 4. You only have good connection if you are in a large city area (I live in the L.A area so my connection is relatively consistent, albeit packet burst is a MAJOR issue) 5. Abuse every mechanic in the game. They exist for a reason, no matter how annoying they are (The balancing in this game feels unfair until you understand this concept and #3) The importance of understanding how to play WITH your shit team against the enemy team is integral to having a fun game. I will now give an example of what I mean by all of this to exemplify just how complex and intricate this system is: My "main" loadout is a chimera focused on short-mid-range engagements with good movement speed. The secondary is a lockwood 300 with a double shot trigger tuned for sprint-to-fire time and hip fire accuracy. I used a molotov to hold choke points and a gas grenade to do the exact same thing. My perks are scavenger, overkill, fast hands, and quick fix. I use dead silence and a munitions box as field upgrades. The maps I use this loadout are any close range maps with corridors and mainly on objective gamemodes on those maps. The playstyles I typically use this loadout against are slow teammates and enemies who focus on close range (the chimera can take them out from a distance and the lockwood one shots at close range). I describe all of that to tell you that there is no fun to be had in this game unless you grind the fuck out of it and create loadouts for the most specific engagements on specific maps on specific gamemodes against specific enemies with specific weapons at specific points in the games (perks activate midgame so you have to apply that to your playstyle and switch your loadouts midgame to account for the enemy getting specific perks). The moment you understand this is when you can have fun. But even then, the amount of work needed to do that makes it boring as shit. I hope this shows what I see to be the true issue behind MW2 appearing to be such a shitty game OUTSIDE of SBMM and other stupid systems they had in the game. Thanks for reading.

@BlameTruth I guess you misunderstand how percentages work since it isn't 15% total playerbase has lvl 55. Steam it was ~3%, Xbox it was ~4%, PS it was ~8% (i'm rounding). To get the percentage of the whole playerbase, you don't just add all of those numbers up. You add those numbers, then divide by 3 (since there are 3 different platforms) to get the percentace of all platforms put together because the people that haven't gotten to lvl 55 are a part of the playerbase as well. So, 3 + 4 + 8 = 15, 15 / 3 = 5. ~5% is the percentage of people who have reached lvl 55 across all platforms, not 15.

Here’s a breakdown of why this might be happening… 1. Digital refunds are hard on xbox/pc. The Devs release campaign first to boost hours played and reduce refund chance. 2. Those who like multiplayer play more often and get to max rank. Conversely, lower rank players play less often, so you don’t come across them as often. 3. You play at times of day when people who are lower levels typically don’t not have time to play (if we calculate level as a result of time played and interest in game since you aren’t likely to be a high level if you don’t have time or aren’t interested). 5. Find the median play session for casual cod players and average time it takes to get to max level. If it turns out people only need 5-6 sessions, then it makes sense why there are so few players at low rank. 6. Some people just get the game for the campaign or because their friend got it and don’t play much or mind wasting their money / quit early. This can all be disproven with a couple tests: 1. Track average lobby level across every hour every day (if the average level does not dip at 6pm+ and on weekends, then that eliminates the hypothesis that lower level players play less (they would be playing after work). 2. Track average lobby levels with low level accounts / worse performing accounts. I’m not saying your wrong, I’m just injecting some other hypotheses

Also to take into account 15 million copies were sold of the game. If everyone kept their copies and only 15% of those players hit 55 then that's still a player base of 2 million people. A good vast majority of which will be the "hardcore" cod players. I'm not saying there isn't bots but they def aren't in these lobbies.

The reason you get stuck on so many of the remastered maps is probably because on older cods like bo3 for a recent example your fps can make the you get stuck on certain things you normally wouldn't on 60 fps due to the limitations of older consoles it never was an issue but i bet them porting the maps to a new game with 120 fps even on console now it's just a constant issue or just their engine made by iw is just garbage

Was sceptical about the whole bots conspiracy, but had the weirdest experience yesterday. I joined a game and had a player in my team that was just spinning in circles and shooting at the ground. Was thinking just a troll, but the weirdest thing is, his name was not in the scoreboard. How do we have a player in game who is not even shown in the scoreboard? Can bots join your game even if the lobby is full and overpopulate games?

Hey BlameTruth I got another crazy story for you! I spent a few matches popping off and was suddenly put into an in-progress Rust game. Not bullshitting you as SOON as I spawned in I was being insta-killed by some aerial kill streak I can’t even Name due to my limited COD knowledge. This happened over and over again with me dying so fast my characters arm and weapon wouldn’t even load in. 40 seconds in the game ended with a score of 24-100 and I am fully convinced I was put into this match just to die. Not sure if it was a cheater, a bot or a really aggresive reverse booster. I am in no way good at COD but this shows even if my case on rare occasions the game wants to balance me out.

Also a possibility that rank display is client side. Where it always shows your correct rank, and any friends/squad mates you join in on, then just plasteres a random rank on all of the random to help cover up the SBMM.

OK I've watched the other videos about the AI stuff and have nothing to say, but this one is just false. The total number of players includes MW2, DMZ, and Warzone 2. This is because the achievements are ties to the COD HQ. It's why the achievements are all bundled together for both games (I lost my 100% completion and I'm still a few off from getting it back on Steam). This is not manipulation by Activision, this is simply an inflated number due to being tied to a free to play call of duty game that's been out for over a year

I've always wondered how SBMM worked for those players that get extremely negative on my lobbies (in all my solo matches there are only level 55 players, and always 3 people on my team that get a 3/20ish score). They're probably bots. Otherwise, SBMM doesn't even work protecting them and it is useless. It fails at its only purpose
@kalebwhite3210o11 ай бұрын
No it does its job as intended. Those players did too good in their last 2-3 games so they put them with higher skilled players in order to knock their kd down closer to a 1.

This game definitely could be made by AI because wasn't Sledghammer working on their own cod when Activision and Higher ups came and told them that they are actually making MW3 instead. So in order to fill all of the gaps they were made by a lack of dev time, they employed massive amounts of AI in all aspects of the game including the building and implementation of themselves into the SBMM for this year. I was also nuked by a 2 character Chinese language hacker or bot who dropped an MGB and went 53/2 with others on the enemy team with names of AntiCheat with weird annotations on their name, forbidden user with weird annotations on their name, geo0888, DaBoss6590, and MrBiscuit2017. I've also been getting horrible latency spikes whenever Im doing well and I bounce from a 1kd to a .99kd. I've never ever ever been nuked in any cod in my life. The person who dropped the nuke was either a hacker with wall hacks and aimbot or an AI bot that just went crazy. We lost that game 250 to 36
