So... Do you accept criticism for your microtransactions?

Yes. Forward them along when I see them.

As the only real line between us and treyarch you get a lot of shit and it's not really fair for you.

Thanks for the work you do, even if the community will only shit on you for it.

I was community at one point too. It's why I stick around or try to.

Since your here for criticism when’s MP actually getting balanced? It’s shit show of broken things lowering the skill gap. When are we gonna have Weapon Bribes without Mk2 weapons? When will we be able to earn the weapons only in reserves? When will you all patch the dart glitch in heist? When will collision be fixed? When will you start banning players who actually do glitches and break TOS?

This was just posted. Please take a look.

These are all things I can/have pass/passed along.

We also do ban violations of our BO4 Sec/Enf policy.

A Note on New Weapons

Before we get into today’s news, we’d like to touch on some of this past week’s updates, particularly the changes made to the Black Market. The team at Treyarch has been excited to bring so much new free content to the community with the Days of Summer mid-Operation update – our classic multiplayer map Grind, the new Community Challenge, more game modes including Ground War in Blackout and Capture the Flag in Multiplayer, new Zombies and Blackout updates and features, and new weapons and personalization content that can be earned through Contraband. We’ve also been following the recent discussions around weapons being introduced to Reserves.

Going forward, we’re actively planning to provide all players with new ways to earn weapons just by playing the game in any mode, including:

  • Our Community Challenge that unlocks the free, fully customizable Grav assault rifle, now live today...

It’s meant as a joke, don’t take it too seriously.

If I was serious about it I would’ve made a big text post of me complaining about lack of communication.

Right. So here's the thing. Criticisms? Cool. Making jokes to invite unintended hostilities or sandbagging for the karma? Not that great. I'd rather the criticism/feedback than what your actual intent to was.

And we appreciate the effort, I know there’s only so much communication and community managers can do, and they can mostly respond whenever Treyarch and Activision allows them to, that’s why I mostly blame the higher ups at Treyarch and Activision

You literally just put me on blast in the title. I'm highly doubtful this comment from you is sincere or that you read the contents of my link. Check it out.

I've had plenty of interactions with people who have let passion overcome pleasantries and gone on to accept their response and form great lines of communication. I feel in this situation though that it's not the actual intent.

I actually issued a response to someone asking me about this. It can be found below. I noted that I can't speak to the topic, but have passed the feedback on. This is the most that I can do. - I understand that isn't enough for some, OP included, but it's what I can do.

This person can't actively fix them, and being a douche towards Foxhound or Treyarch_Official isn't going to help anything; it's a wonder they show up here at all.

They can say "The reddit community doesn't like X about the game" to their manager, then their manager goes to a meeting with the devs and passes that info along, but the devs are ultimately beholden to what Activision expects the game to do profit-wise.

I appreciate you advising your fellow community members to take a less hostile approach when possible. It's understandable that passion can create a variety of responses, but hostility tends to close conversation opportunities rather than open them.

That said, Jelly King reached out to me privately to apologize. It was a very awesome gesture and I appreciated it very much.

Are you a developer? Community manager?

Surely you aren't the only one from Treyarch patrolling reddit are you? Does the entire company aside from you actually bury their head in the sand when it comes to people yelling on social media and other platforms about how terrible the reserve system is? About how scummy putting NON-cosmetic items in RNG loot crates is?

I am neither of those officially. Below is what I have placed into my Reddit profile.

Treyarch Comms. Team member. Poster of Posts. Tweeter of Tweets. Unable to make decisions or promise fixes, but can pass along feedback and reports. Tangerine is best cat. PTFO, GLFH, PCMR, & YTYL.

Other Questions: I personally patrol Reddit often and others do too. I understand the feedback that is being shared but as I said above, don't have anything to share about it.

I don't have anything to share about the feedback I have seen at this moment, but I have passed it on as I do most other items.

We are actively investigating this and have a few fixes in the pipe.

Edit: Will also pass the video along to our enforcement team.

We're on the case! This is a bug with how this specific explosive damage is being calculated against the Safeguard robot... definitely not intentional. It's on the list for a fix in an update ASAP.
