Currently, one of the biggest points of contention in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is the collision with other players: you can be pushed to death by your own teammates. On reddit, the developers from Infinity Ward address this issue.
What is the background? Currently, in CoD Modern Warfare, there are situations where players push each other aside or forward. While this is more realistic, it is also annoying, as players report on reddit.
Many players in the community now wish that Infinity Ward addresses and fixes the problem.

Claymores were also a major point of contention for streamer DrDisrespect.
How players are reacting: The majority of the community is angry about the player collision feature. While it is understood that this is particularly realistic, many feel that this aspect of realism could have been omitted.

“Ridiculous, I was pushed directly into the door by my teammates, only to die immediately. I feel like they did it just for the realism. As if any player gives a damn about this aspect,” said user MrWinsaplenty, for example.
What does Infinity Ward say about it? The developers of Modern Warfare have also noticed the criticism. Joel Emslie, Art Director at Infinity Ward, commented that they will definitely look into this issue.
He also said that he does not know how far the developers are with this issue. It may still take some time before this problem is resolved.
