We played the update the same time as you guys did."After addressing the hate he received, JoeWo described the new season as one of the worst Call of Duty Warzone updates to date and broke down some of the points:"Today was definitely, probably, the worst update, or the most overpromised update that we've ever had. And I hope that Call of Duty does something to fix this because we have ranked play coming in under a month. We have on TTK improvements like we thought we would. The movement changes that we were promised, don’t seem like they were very promised. And all of these updates, servers included, just didn't happen."On Twitter, the content creator claimed that the hate and death threats that he received following the update were not exclusively from strangers but also from "friends":JoeWo@AverageJoeWo@Nokokopuffs Lost a lot of respect for “friends” that should know better.
