Call of Duty Player Uses Unusual Method to Seek Help from Developers
An enthusiast of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 has taken an unusual approach to seeking assistance from the developers of the game. Released in October 2022 and garnering largely positive reviews, Modern Warfare 2 has had several problems reported by gamers since its launch.
Recently, the installation of an update for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 caused issues for some PC gamers with AMD Vega series GPUs, making the game unplayable. Developer Beenox acknowledged the issue on April 17, but a fix has yet to be applied. To draw attention to the problem, one Call of Duty player resorted to a rather unconventional way of persuading the development team to take action.
A recent video has highlighted an issue with the teammate dots in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. This article goes into more detail.
According to VG247, and first noticed by PC Gamer, a Reddit user by the name of BehindACorpFireWall supposedly sent a pizza to Beenox in order to request assistance. It is thought that the user wrote “Help Vega Please” on the box in a bid to persuade the team to quickly address the PC version of Modern Warfare 2, as previously reported by Gamerant. The post was later removed, but included a photograph as proof of delivery. Still, PC Gamer believes the box never reached the development personnel since it was visible in what seems like a waiting area, presumably for security purposes.
The development team wasn’t likely motivated to quicken their process of solving the issue when they were presented with a pizza, though it was an uncommon way to ask for assistance. Additionally, certain Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 supporters have started a petition concerning the issue, and it has already accumulated 369 signatures.
It is out-of-the-ordinary to have this issue with the AMD Vega series GPUs, however, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 players have reported other difficulties since its launch. For instance, one person playing on the Shipment map encountered a number of peculiar glitches, and the game Call of Duty: Warzone 2 has its own list of problems and errors.
Amid the many patches Activision has put out since the launch of the recent Call of Duty titles, it is astonishing that numerous issues still exist. It’s captivating to note the effect the free pizza had on Beenox’s timeline for resolving the troubles encountered by AMD Vega GPU users.
The PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S are all platforms that Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 can now be played on.
