  1. What's the sabotage AI like, the hidden piece of software that manipulates the outcome of matches by ripping off certain players in face to face gunfights, changing gun stats on automatic weapons from match to match so it takes you one or two bullets more to kill certain people in the match in case it determines that you should be the loser, that makes sure some players survive a claymore blast for no reason, grants snipers an aimbot, makes it so a sniper's pistol gets you with one shot, makes you think that a player survived your bullets simply because they hopped into the air, that makes sure if you're using a short-range weapon like a shotgun you're spawned next to someone with a long-range weapon like a semi-auto rifle so you lose that gunfight, or if you're camping on one half of the map, the sabotage AI makes sure everyone is only spawning on the other half of the map so you're wasting your time camping. This last one I've experienced time and again and exposed by sending up a UAV. There is many other subtle things it does. Dusty Female Cat 2 has brought it up. Modern Warfare Remastered is especially blighted by the sabotage AI. It's something Activision puts in the game to ensure that a single person isn't winning a free for all match again and again, unless it's some Masonic YouTuber brat, and it also ensures that there is no such thing as an OP gun or OP class. You can't claim a gun is OP when in one match it will seem OP, but in the next match it will underperform, then the next match it will seem OP again.
