Activision shut down a viral Modern Warfare mod on the same day as its planned release because it reportedly didn't want the free, fanmade project to interfere with Call of Duty: Black Ops 6's commercial performance when it comes out October 25.
The H2M mod was set to bring a host of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (2009) content, including classic maps and weapons, to Modern Warfare Remastered just earlier this week. All H2M required was a copy of the remaster, which prompted Modern Warfare to rocket up sales chart in the days leading up to release. But hopes for the mod were dashed just hours before as Activision sent a Cease and Desist letter to the team behind it.
