Call of Duty HQ reportedly leaving two modern titles behind
Call of Duty HQ is the default launcher or hub app for the modern CoD titles in the market right now. As of now, this app features Black Ops 6, Modern Warfare II & III, and Warzone altogether, under the same roof.
This approach was taken by Activision to make everything seamless for the fans, as players will be able to access all the recent Call of Duty games at one place. However, things didn't go the way it was supposed to as the app is hugely infested with bugs, ads, and UI issues. And that is why, Activision might be omitting some modern CoD titles from the app to make it clutter-free.
Call of Duty HQ app is reportedly excluding two popular titles
According to credible gaming insider Reality, Call of Duty Modern Warfare II and Modern Warfare III are available outside the main Call of Duty HQ app.
Initially, it was mandatory to install that app because from there, those two titles would launch. But the insider has claimed that if players redownload those two games, then they can be played directly, without the help of any launcher.
However, this potential from Activision was quite evident, keeping in mind Call of Duty HQ's poor reception among the fans. First of all, the app is a huge storage-junker, and when someone downloads all the games in this launcher, then it gets out of hand.

Secondly, the HQ app is clubbed with so many titles that its complex UI makes everything confusing for the fans.
Not only that, because of the huge load on the single app, the server of Call of Duty HQ often finds it tough to maintain all the games at once, often resulting in server outages.
On June 25, fans faced a similar situation
where servers of several titles went down and out.
Another reason for this chaos is because of different developers for different sub-series in Call of Duty.
For example, Warzone and the Modern Warfare series are mainly developed by Infinity Ward. On the other hand, the Black Ops series is taken care of by Treyarch. So, it is obviously going to be tough to stick all the items in a single place by different development teams.
Opening a game from a certain launcher is itself a tedious job. First, you have to open the Call of Duty HQ app, then load a list of the available games and find the one you want to play from there.
At last, launching the desired one. All of these could have been done in just a double-click on a separate icon on the desktop.
So, now it's clearly understood why Activision is taking this potential approach to remove two of the most popular games from the Call of Duty HQ app. However, it can go the other way around too. Recently,
many classic CoD titles got updates out of nowhere
after more than a decade. So, were those updates implemented to club those titles in the HQ app? Only time will give the answer.

How much she spend on her transformations? So far, Ivanova has spent over $26,000 on lip fillers alone, determined to achieve what she calls the 'world's largest lips.' She's also invested in chin and jaw reshaping, cheekbone enhancement, and breast augmentation, taking her from a 75C to a 75E bra size. A New York Post article reports that she has already spent around $1,900 on the cheekbone, and she plans to spend more.

A look that's always evolving By 2022, Ivanova had already completed nearly 32 procedures. She told Jam Press that her goal is to 'model and gain significant enlargement' of her facial features, and that more surgeries are already planned as a 'gift' to herself for Christmas. She also revealed that she helps fund her cosmetic journey by auctioning off 'kisses for cash' on Instagram. Critics and concerns Despite online criticism and repeated medical warnings, Ivanova is committed to her look. 'I don't worry about people's comments, as I have my own taste and views on beauty – I follow them strictly,' she said. Though several clinics have declined to treat her due to the health risks involved, Ivanova remains firm in her plans: even bigger lips, larger cheekbones, and more surgeries ahead, regardless of the cost.
