Players familiar with the Call of Duty franchise know how high-energy voice chat can be. While most players will end up using it for banter with their team, some players will, unfortunately, use it to spew their toxicity.
While this is nothing new, it looks like the developers of Modern Warfare 2, Infinity Ward, are finally cracking down on toxic teammates in voice chat. Infinity Ward has finally introduced a reporting feature where players can report toxic teammates to the moderation team.

We are continuing our commitment to delivering a fun gameplay experience for players in #MWII, #Warzone2, and future Call of Duty titles.
