  1. [R2] Call of Duty® 5/5 · US Why Call of Duty Mobile is the best mobile game?: Cal of Duty Mobile is the best mobile game because you can’t compare the graphics with other games, and the experience is very good, and other things that makes this games the best mobile game ever.
  2. [R32] Call of Duty® 5/5 · US Great Game: I’ve honestly never really played the game. My son has played them all. We have the XBox versions. But once all the controllers became complex after the Galaga and original Super Mario days, I can’t play games lol but since having tried this on IPhone I absolutely love it. These controls are for dummies 😂 so much fun and addictive.

  5. [R4] Call of Duty® 2/5 · US Awesome but has a really bad flaw: the game play is great and fun in general but i really dont think it’s necessary to ban people for hopping off for example I accidentally turned of my phone and kicked me out my game and i got banned for really long and its not the first time really annoying needs to be removed

  7. [R12] Call of Duty® 3/5 · US Just don’t become a Good player. Or you will be blocked: You will be paired only with Bots while the opposite team is full of modded accounts. (I.E. in a 10v10, your team til be 2 real players and 8 bots who just shoot at the sky or stand in your face. While the opposite team is 6 real players and 4 bots.). Next, (in regular games, and not “Unlimited” games) After they make ONE kill they already h
  8. [R22] Call of Duty® 1/5 · US Dont play: This game is trash. Unplayable lobbies. Bad matchingmaking forces shipment way too much. Too many sweats for a casual gameplay. Pay to win.

  16. [R27] Call of Duty® 3/5 · GB Open DMZ up to 4 man team: Can you open DMZ up to 4 man teams or 5 man for everything it’s silly how can you have multiplayer 5man br has 4 then DMZ as 3 it’s not fair on the people you play with and don’t get me started on the Fennec in DMZ and you really do need to update zombies at this point but really good job and the camos love them and the new team buliding to get cod points is amazing as w
  17. [R40] Call of Duty® 1/5 · US Poor balance: The sense of matchmaking and gun releases is completely thrown. The DMZ mode is nothing more than streamer bait that casual play is impossible to enjoy. I’ve played the game for so long yet in a matter of days any progress you’ve made can disappear to buggy bots, unbalanced teams, and ridiculous odds. Despite doing research on how to improve, the messages to developers/feedback syste

  23. [R101] Arena Breakout 4/5 · US Controller functions: I love the game and always will but I think it could be even better with the ability to be played on backbone
  24. [R103] Arena Breakout 1/5 · US Terrible: Controls suck and cannot use a controller without getting a ban
  25. [R25] Call of Duty® 1/5 · US Lot of Bots: Every time when new season starts the games is worst because of only boats are there to kill 🤣 it should be according to the our level of game
  26. [R37] Call of Duty® 1/5 · US BOOTTTSSS: EVERY SINGLE UNRANKED GAME, there’s at least 2 BOTS THAT SELL YOUR GAME. NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU CARRY THAT BOT HAS A 1-10 SCORE! FIX YOUR GAME STOP HAVING SO MUCH BOTS. THATS WHY YOUR GAME HAS LOST SO MUCH PLAYERS! NOBODY LIKES THESE BOTS
