Players report significant performance drops in Call of Duty's new DMZ mode compared to the campaign. While some achieve 180fps on ultra settings in campaign play, DMZ mode struggles to exceed 70fps even on balanced graphics settings, with many noting poor visual quality. Screen tearing and FPS drops occur even on high-end laptops, highlighting broad optimization challenges. Additionally, players experience limited matchmaking options and soft lock bugs related to selling starting equipment. Infinity Ward is currently investigating these issues to improve the DMZ experience.
