One of the things a player will pick up on very quickly playingCall of Duty: Modern Warfareis that the game is all about split-second decisions and fast reactions. In a game where one kill can be the difference betweenan awesome Juggernaut killing spreeand a long evening of disappointment, reaction time is something that must be held sacred. Unfortunately, some players are experiencing trouble on that front.

One of the major innovations that came to the franchise withCall of Duty: Modern Warfarewas cross-platform play, which allows players on PC to compete against those playing on a Console. For optimization and fairness purposes, there are small differences between the two versions designed to bring players to about the same level of performance no matter what they are playing on, but one of these differences seems to have been taken too far.

A test by Reddit user u/J3RRY__, who was good enough to record video evidence of their finding, compared the turn speed of a player affected by a stun grenade inCall of Duty: Modern Warfarewhen using a controller as opposed to a mouse and keyboard. The test showed that a controller, obviously used more often by a Console player, allowed a player to turn around twice as fast as a mouse. A further test showed that even upping the mouse’s DPI did not do much to alleviate the issue, not shaving remotely enough time off of the turn to be comparable. In a game where aglitch that blinded playerswas cause enough for complaint, a feature that hobbles them has drawn a huge amount of ire.

One of the major sticking points for PC players is not the discrepancy in turn speeds itself, but the response, or lack thereof, from Infinity Ward.Call of Duty: Modern Warfareis not exactly a game free from problems, and it hascertainly had rockier glitchesthan this feature, but those were often addressed promptly. The complaint about the turn speed has stood for several months at this point, and no answer has been given, leaving players wondering why the devs have been silent about what is clearly a well known and widespread issue.

To an outsider, this may not sound like too major of an issue, especially since it seems that it is tied more to a controller than the PC itself. As a feature, it was no doubt added for balance issues, and the devs lack of an answer means it will probably stay. There’s no telling howplaying COD using the DK bongoswould affect flashbangs.

As mentioned earlier, speed is the heart ofCall of Duty: Modern Warfare, and anything that hampers that speed is met with extreme caution by all players. Something that gives a distinct advantage based on a peripheral a player may or may not have is something that will be frowned on almost universally, and there is no reason to expect that anger will vanish unless the feature vanishes with theupcoming Season 2 updates, or, preferably, before then.
