metacritic is f*%d up and deletes reviews.

[007..]

I recenlty left a positive review for Cod modern warfare.
In my review I mentioned russian bots reviewbombing the game because of some in game things that make Russia a bad guy(strange that someone still cant accept that).
And then I checked it today and instead of my review there is a red message saying: "you can no longer leave review because of the content something something."
So here is what I suspect:
1. Bots reported my reviews claiming it having offensive content, and then it went down using automated system
2. Metacritic deletes reviews the site see political content in them.

If you have anything to add, I would appreciate that.

Solution: Review the game without mentioning something not related to the game.

Problem: Solved.

Yeah it disappointing when a group of people just vote down a game. But that shouldn't be in your review. Just report reviews you think are spam and move on.

lmao that's not russian bots those are actual people

attributing a war crime to another country is ♥♥♥♥♥♥
if people are gonna ♥♥♥♥ on bfv for having a female soldier with prosthetics it's ok to do it for other reasons

this. if you don't want to get herded, don't join any herd. not saying that neutrality is an answer to everything, in many similar cases it's enough not to forget to avoid being neutral.

Which, if they are doing so, is perfectly within their rights.

Don't go on metacritic.

Either go to GameSpot or GamesRadar for reviews.

Who need those kinds of websites anyways amirite or amiron?

when you review a game, do not talk about something else (russian bots, etc).

this too

They all manipulate scores. Same as amazon. Iv left several bad reviews on amazon for games that deserved it with legit reasons and they get deleted. It’s all backhanders behind the scenes

I am half russian. And as such, I have the right to criticize something that is disgusting and is destroying reputation of Russian people.
But as some of you said, if this is in metacritic rules, I shouldnt have said anything about that.
Also, as someone else also said, I agree, I will use another site from now on.
But I am confident that bigger portion of those negative reviews were left by bots. I think that because I have seen the scale of ♥♥♥♥ those who sold their body and mind leave in the comment sections of all popular communities and websites. They now even come to places like techological magazines looking for anything that fits their agenda or topics.
And then they spread lies trying to device and misguide those who fell to that.

There were some people who worked for one of these disgraceful organizations, and they told how it functions.
Anyways, I always remember that it is enough for good men to do nothing for evil to succeed.
So I wanted to tell about this. I dont mind reviewbombing--I think it does anything at all.
But Kremlebots are an ugly child of dictatorship that is currently ruling Russia for the last twenty years. And seeing them spread poo even on english websites, I dont wanna stay silent about that.
Thanks for replies.

Im pretty sure the issue was it was based off of a real event and completely absolved the U.S of all guilt by making the bad guys russians, not that the bad guys were russians from what i've heard

don't go anywhere for public reviews, because everything is utterly compromised and it isn't the 2000s anymore

Watch a gameplay video and form your own opinion.

Yeah, Metacritic is useless. Journalists are too timid to give mediocre AAA release a terrible score, and user reviews are bombed on every rating site.

Gameplay footage should be where you get your first impression, but there are some decent reviewers left. ACG is a more reliable reviewer than any of the journalists on Metacritic. The Worthabuy guy is also willing to mercilessly tear apart a game, but he's fair.

They're worse than timid. They're presstitutes.
