Fans Express Their Distaste as Another Major Map May Get Removed From Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

Ever since the beta, Activision had to remove many major locations from the new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The reasons vary as to why the developer had to erase or remove certain locations from the game. But this new dispute regarding another map is shedding some light on the matter.  

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2  is a 2022 first-person shooter game developed by the Infinity Ward and published by Activision. It was released on October 28, 2022. But ever since its release, the game is facing some controversies as many locations have been removed from the game. 

There are some speculations that the game is facing legal licensing issues with some of its locations, but there are no official statements to prove the theories. However, the statement from an official at a hotel in Amsterdam, which was featured in the game, gave some insight as to why this ordeal may have occurred.  

The manager of the Conservatorium Hotel expressed his thought on getting featured in the game 

The In-game location of “Breenbergh Hotel” is based on the real-life establishment Called The Conservatorium Hotel in Amsterdam. The Hotel was featured on a map in the game where gunfights take place.

The manager of the Conservatorium has been vocal on the matter of their establishment being featured in the game without their permission. He said, “We have taken note of the fact that the Conservatorium is undesirably the scene of a new Call of duty”. 

Tomassen, who is the manager of the Conservatorium, expressed his distaste by saying, “More generally, we don’t support games that seem to encourage the use of violence.” He also added, “The game in no way reflects our core values and we regret our apparent and unwanted involvement”.  

The hotel hasn’t taken any action yet, but looking at the innate distaste expressed by the officials, the possibility of legal action is not impossible. Before this, the Valderas Museum and Crown Raceway map in the game faced a similar situation.
