#CODMStealthPlays
This Season, in addition to being focused on our espionage theme, we are celebrating you the Community who make truly makes CODM so great. Each week for this season we have been celebrating the Community in different ways. You can check out the various celebrations and events in our Community Roadmap for Season 8 below!
This week we saw submissions open up for our Community Stealthiest Plays community event. If you haven’t already submitted to this event do so soon because we are gathering clips right now! So it's time to get out there and record yourself stealthily stalking your opponents, putting those melee weapons to good use, getting those ninja defuses, or doing anything you think is worthy of being one of the Community’s Stealthiest Plays.
Once you have your clip ready, share it on your preferred social media platform and use the hashtag #CODMStealthPlays. The team will then comb through all the submissions and choose the stealthiest of the stealthiest plays and share them back out during Week 4 of our Community Celebration Event. Good luck to those who submit or have submitted already!
New Servers – South Africa
We are more than excited to announce we have opened new servers recently in South Africa! For all of you playing in that region of the world, we hope you have noticed your gameplay experience becoming better. Our teams are constantly trying to improve the gaming experience for all our players across the world and this is another example of the team doing just that. Talking about ping and requesting servers has always been a common topic in the Community, and some of you may be wondering why your region didn’t get new servers as well. The short answer is they take time. And who knows, maybe your region could be next to get some server support!
Revenger Draw
Earlier this year, our Comics’ first storyline came to a climactic ending featuring a showdown between Ghost and Templar ending with the fall of a hero. But where one hero falls, another rises. Ghost had forgotten about one important part of the story – Templar’s daughter Sophia. Now grown up, Sophia is set on one thing - Revenge.

The Revenger Draw is in-game now and live through 10/06! This draw features the Legendary Sophia – Errant Knight, dead set on eliminating Ghost and getting the revenge she craves. To help her get that revenge the Revenger Draw is packed with items such as the Legendary Butterfly Knife - Carver, Epic Type 25 – Scarlet Vengeance, Epic Combat Axe – Fanged Dragon, and much more! Check out the collection page to see all the items offered in this Legendary Operator draw.
Bugs:
Missing Iron Sights – we have been seeing players report that some camos are affecting the unique iron sights of select weapon blueprints. The team is aware of this issue and working on a fix.
Pumped BR Class – we have seen reports of players having issues with enemies using Pumped Class in BR because of some unintended visual effects from players using the Class. The team has identified the root of this issue and it will be fixed in the next major update.
Care Package Issues – the team has identified and fixed an issue that players were having where certain scorestreaks were not appearing in Care Packages in BR. This issue should be fixed now.
Wrong Rewards Shown – the team is aware that the wrong Manta Ray was shown in the rewards preview and is investigating.
Missing Animations – the team is aware that some animations are no longer showing, specifically in frames. The team is investigating.
Non Snipers in Sniper Challenge – the team is aware and investigating that non-sniper weapons )the AK117) are appearing in Sniper Challenge Isolated mostly used by bots.
Feedback:
Warzone Mobile – There has been a lot of news around Activision’s next mobile title along with lots of chatter in the Community about it. We can assure you that the two games are meant to coexist and thrive in the same mobile ecosystem.
Zombies – we know you all must be tired of hearing it, but Zombies will be coming back to Call of Duty: Mobile soon. Look to our social accounts for some more info on that soon!
Ranked Season – we have seen a lot of conversations around the current ranked season, and more questions than feedback, but we wanted to clear it up. This Ranked season will last 3 total seasons. In the past, the Ranked season has mirrored the amount of season between major updates. This Ranked season is no different, it is just our next major update will come before S10. There will be some new mechanics added to Ranked next season to keep it fresh, more info on that later.
Support OptionsThe season is still relatively new, so keep on reporting any issues you may be seeing in-game. As always, we appreciate all of you who take the time to report these bugs in our Community spaces. Our teams are regularly monitoring those, so thank you to anyone who reports any issue (big or small) and helps make the game better for everyone.
Lastly, outside of community channels, which are not great options for individual bugs just affecting you, our two main two official support options are below:
- In-game support chat
- Player Support Website: Contact Us
That’s all for this Community Update! We hope you continue to enjoy the new season and see you all in the next update!
