    I appreciate the video, but the fact that Activision even has these problems is a joke. We download 200GB, which is an insane storage size for a game like this. To basically have to RIP our PCS to the bone, or it crashes. People have 5k+ PCS that run other games in Ultra with zero problems, but CoD you can have a 10k PC on minimum and a background activity causes it to crash? Nah, I’m just sticking to console. It’s a joke how their coding is.

So I decided to build a PC with hope that things would be different boy was I wrong

Now I can still play but I crash in the firing range in mid game in ranked causing penalties. Its so annoying. I tried all the Ethernet settings and everything possible and it still crashes . Also my game files are broken and I dont wanna delete my progress but I want to fix that

    This all great until CoD releases an update or patches then you’re back to square one watching this video again, again, and again. Verifying integrity file never works in steam. Which probably is the majority of people crashes are of. I usually have to make a dummy file copy and paste everything that’s in the HQ folder uninstall and delete. Reinstall game pause and uninstall then copy and paste everything from dummy fold back into the new HQ folder then reinstall for the validation. It work with zero crashes until patches and update come along.
