| Call of Duty clamps down on racists Shoot on sight EA Call of Duty: Modern Warfare developer Infinity Ward has promised to find and ban players using racial slurs in their in-game display names, as well as other measures to keep racist language out of its game. When the game came out last year players were able to input customised names for themselves that display in place of a traditional gamertag. This opened the way for shedloads of racial abuse. Players with the display names of “I hate n*ggers”, “N*gger Slayer” and the barely-disguised “KneeGearSlayer69” with the clan tag “Noose” are apparently a thing. Now publisher Activision Blizzard has started making statements of support for the ongoing Black Lives Matter protests currently taking place in all 50 states, there have been calls for a crack down on the racial slurs that some players use in their handles. The charge was led by Modern Warzone calling on the publisher to put its words into action and Infinity Ward has since responded. https://fudzilla.com/news/gaming/509...own-on-racists |
