This chat ban crap is ridiculous. They're going to lose a ton of players all because of it. I will not be wasting my time with the new CoD. 1. They're taking away out freedom of speech. 2. If people are so offended by what's being said, they have options to leave the lobby chat or to mute us. Why do the ones who enjoy talking crap and joking with their friends have to pay the consequences for snowflakes getting upset over words.

It's annoying AF. Even if it's just saying something back to the person cussing you out or saying their going to R@p3 you because your girl playing COD they still chat ban you. Now THIS? It's bull I have friend on different consoles so you can't even do a party chat with those friends. We're trying to figure out discord just so we can talk & hear call outs
It is quite annoying. CoD was built on the trash talking. If your friends are on PS5, follow these steps.
You can start a Direct voice chat on Discord to chat with players and groups that you’ve previously chatted with.
- Go to the control center and select Game Base.
- Go to the Discord tab and select Direct Voice Chats.
- Select the player or group you want to voice chat with.
- Select Start Voice Chat.
If the player or group has already started the voice chat, select Join.
So i'm not sure if you play on console or pc. But if you play on playstation all you need to do is manually change your date in the playstation settings. Once you do this your comms band is gone. This only works for playstation. I've tried with pc, and xbox. I literally bought a playstation just to bypass the comms band. Love ya's
I play on ps5. Going through the same thing. Manually changing my date and time did nothing. Not sure if they patched that or what but it didn’t work for me
Oh but it does! Changing the date on your console works. I did it right after the person above you mentioned it.
What’d you change the date to then? I’m playing online right now and it’s still the same thing. Changed my date to like November and time 12 hours ahead. Nothing

I'm currently on a 3 day com ban. It happened right before the Wednesday update.
My friends can only hear me in Pre-Game lobby. Once the game starts loading in or we get in game, I can hear everybody but nobody can hear me. I've checked every in-game setting and PC setting I can think of. (I work in IT) I've even gone as far as toggling audio settings and verifying integrity of files for the game.
I have now opened up a ticket to Activision for further clarification on whats happening.... They replied with your typical Activision response:
"Please refer to the Offensive Behavior section of our Security & Enforcement policy for more information regarding this : Call of Duty Security and Enforcement Policy
Additionally to know about the specifics of the enforcement, the status of reports can be found in your in-game Notifications. Open the menu in the top right corner of the Home screen and navigate to Notifications (the bell icon). From there, select a Report Status Changed notification, then select View Report Status. The status screen will include the reason for and details of a report, as well as the duration of a penalty, if applicable. You can read more about this here: Call of Duty Voice Chat Moderation FAQ."
It would seem that this is a new form of coms banning... I've some how never been coms banned in MW3 before so I'm only on a 3 day. I will report back after that time frame to let you all know if it was lifted. I'm really disappointed in this game and how the devs are moving forward on enforcing these stupid rules/regulations.

UPDATE: My 3 day ban is over. Everything is back to normal.
Conclusion: This is a new chat ban feature...

I moved it out a year.
Well, this new form of Comm banning is ridiculous and is going to make a lot of players leave and go to XDefiant, Battlefield or else where. CoD was built on trash talking. Like I had mentioned previously, they're taking away out freedom of speech and catering to these snowflakes. There's an option to mute the lobby if you don't want to hear it, why do the ones who enjoy trash talking to their friends and such, have to pay the consequences. I will not be purchasing the new Call of Duty. Not until they come to their senses and stop catering to these crybabies.

SAME THING HERE BROTHER! im on PC. Soon as my friends press 'START GAME' They cant talk to me anymore. Seems its a new things, Comms-Banned-ALL-LOBBY! im seriously an inch away from deleting CoD bro. This game is Rated-M For Adults! Sissy's should be filtered into their own lobbys ans there shld be an option to OPT-IN If you are a Puxxy! And leave the rest of us alone! Dumb part is, NOBODY even wanted this! Its just the Devs making dumbass choices to appeal to kids, tbey wanna be fortnite so bad!
Hopefully in 2 weeks i can talk to my friends again! Its literally my onky human interaction anymore and they took it away

My boyfriend is having the same issue. Can’t be heard on multiplayer either. Last night we created a channel and I could finally hear him in multiplayer. Tonight we’re trying to run resurgence and we still can’t hear him.
The same thing happened to me a few days ago, I got the notification and then bam no one could hear me in game but could in lobby. Then my brother had that happen to him last night, idk if it has to do with the new update, but I’ve tried everything to make it work again. I’m mad I preordered the new BO6 because what’s the point? My friends are on different systems so we just ping everything now but it takes the fun out of it if you can’t talk to your team

I think Cod should go fuck themselves, its an adult game. Trash talking should be fine, unless its death threats, terrorism or trying to purposefully effect someone's mental heath in an aggressively negative way. Grow the fuck up cod, there's a mute button for snowflakes that can't handle hearing someone swear or talk shit. Teammates should always have the option to unmute. Its a team game this company is stepping on the community's toes a bit too much. Keep it up and I'm sure #fuckurfranchise will be trending

Of all the years and money I've spent on this franchise over every other competing game.. I've never been that much of a shit talker and I've also never had a problem with other people talking shit.. it's COD...
I literally said Jorge, pronounce (HOR-HAY) and was banned, Now for 14 days I can't say anything to even my teammates. The ban before this I was called a dishwasher and told the dude he had a tiny d*ck. I got banned.
It's not rated right? So why the fuck are we banning people!?! I was so excited to pre-purchase blops 6. I'm officially done with COD. There's literally no point if my own teammates, INCLUDING FRIENDS can't unmute me, You've actually, honestly, lost my business.
I hate cod. I'm not buying another one after this. The franchise needs to just go outta business.
So ummm after I posted this, they must have patched it bc over the weekend I got comms band. Now my friends can only hear me in the pregame lobby. In the lobby I can HEAR everyone, including the enemies. But no one can hear me... its BS. I know have my friends in discord so we can communicate. This whole game is going to shit, like how tf is anyone supposed to communicate if you can't unmute ur team mate or even text for that matter. Like wtf.

*UPDATE*
Ya girl just caught another 14 day chat ban. My friend got one last night as well. Didn’t say anything derogatory. Dude was camping in scrapyard with an RGL so I called him a bitch. Seemed fitting… They slapped me with the same chat ban. No talking to anybody in game. No typing in chat. I’m taking a break from COD. This is overkill on their part… Ruining the game.
