Call of Duty fans were happy to see a new instalment arriving last month after a long wait. Modern Warfare II has mostly impressed in multiple aspects so far. However, there is a critical issue that has emerged after its debut. Not to mention that it has directly affected the players themselves who are now suffering.

Ever since the latest Call of Duty entry released globally, most of the fans have complained of getting unexpected bans. Although the ban is usually imposed to restrict cheaters but in the case of Modern Warfare II, it looks like even the regular players are getting their accounts suspended.

When Warzone was launched two years ago, Activision faced situations where the fans called out the devs for allowing cheaters in the matches. Those who used hacking techniques were the ones having an advantage. This led to an increased criticism by the community against the makers for not doing anything to remove the cheaters.

Following the escalated situation of fans calling them out, the developers came up with some strict measures, like introducing anti-cheat softwares. Moreover, they imposed heavy bans on those using unacceptable methods in Call of Duty.

While this move was welcomed, there were still players who mentioned that along with cheaters, even the regular users were getting suspended. However, this issue didn’t become huge until the arrival of Modern Warfare II.

Now, what’s happening is actually annoying for a lot of Call of Duty fans who have paid over $70 for a premium title. According to them, they can’t play Modern Warfare II since starting it up has led to a permanent ban on their accounts. To be precise, the problem has become evident now. And the fans are angry because the makers haven’t fixed it yet, as of this writing.

Those who received false bans even made a visit to the office of Activision after their online appeals were denied. But according to them, there’s been no response in any capacity. The controversy might go out of hands if the makers don’t restore the accounts of innocent players who didn’t do anything illegal during the matches, let alone cheating.

The present situation also raises a big question: Is Activision taking its approach of banning cheaters to the extreme now? So much so that they are imposing bans even on those who are just regular players?

All things considered, this issue needs to be solved by Activision and the team of developers. Because purchasing a $70 title is no joke. Then there are those as well who opted for the $100 Vault Edition and are still receiving false bans. Hopefully, the makers will come up with a much-needed response, very soon.
