Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Is Now Following Overwatch 2 Footsteps

Want to join the bandwagon of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 releasing on October 28? Then provide a phone number with a valid data plan, coz VOIP and prepaid numbers won’t work.

It’s a company-wide initiative at Activision Blizzard to fight toxic behavior in its multiplayer games. It will prevent abusive players from making new accounts, which means they’ll be held accountable for their actions, in theory. It might also stop hackers from getting back into the system, but it will definitely not go well with players who go for VOIP and prepaid numbers to play the game entirely.
