Modern Warfare Netcode Explained by Infinity Ward, Immediately Receives Backlash From Players

modern warfare

Back in September, we ran a post wherein the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare beta netcode was looked over, with the results not really looking good for Infinity Ward. Well, the game is now out officially, and the devs have taken it upon themselves to explain the Modern Warfare netcode.

Narrating and explaining the eight-minute video is Production Director Paul Haile, and Director of Online Engineering Mitch Sanborn. Unfortunately, though, it doesn’t really explain anything, and we think Infinity Ward knows this as they have immediately turned the comments off.

Regardless if you’re someone familiar with how netcode works or not, this isn’t really the video fans were looking forward to, and the community didn’t react kindly to it.

Here are some of the comments left by the community:

That’s basically how it goes. You can read more regarding it here.

Hopefully, someone like Battle(non)sense can make another netcode analysis video so we can know what’s really wrong.

For those playing Modern Warfare, how’s the netcode been for you? Has it been consistent or are you still getting shot behind corners? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

That video explained almost nothing outside of what is Netcode in general. They went over a bit on predictive latency, but overall this is not the video fans want. It’s like they threw this video up last minute in hopes that fans would just accept it, when all you could honestly do it google what is Netcode and get basically the same info. Come on IW be better than this, this is just setting yourself up.
Yeesh

I preordered the game after playing the alpha, I’m not lying but I remember the alpha being perfect, no joke! But then I played the beta and I realized that something was very very wrong. Im yet to download the game and refuse to do so until it’s fixed.

I’m glad you said this
I thought I was the only one who felt there was something off and I feel it even more so in the final release

Bunch of crybabies. Play the game and quit whining so much. You’re all in a contest for who can complain more.
