    Call of Duty map removed....

    Call of Duty map removed at request of Muslim gamers

    Call of Duty map removed at request of Muslim gamers - GameSpot.com


    Activision has temporarily removed popular Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer map Favela at the request of Muslim gamers, Kotaku reports.
    When Favela returns, this painting will be edited.

    When Favela returns, this painting will be edited.

    YouTube user KhaleDQ84EveR points out in a video that two paintings are hung in the map's bathroom that feature a quote from the Muslim prophet Muhammad, which reads "Allah is beautiful and He loves beauty." He explains that it is forbidden for Islamic holy teachings to be featured in bathrooms and sought an apology from Infinity Ward, as well as the removal of the content.

    That's exactly what has happened, as Infinity Ward parent company Activision issued a statement to Kotaku apologizing for the issue and noting that the map has been removed from rotation. It will return once it is edited. Additionally, the same texture will be removed from Modern Warfare 3.

    "We apologize to anyone who found this image offensive," reads a line from the statement. "Please be assured we were unaware of this issue and that there was no intent to offend. We are working as quickly as possible to remove this image and any other similar ones we may find from our various game libraries."

    "Activision and our development studios are respectful of diverse cultures and religious beliefs, and sensitive to concerns raised by its loyal game players," the statement continues. "We thank our fans for bringing this to our attention.

                No, infidels.

                What I suggest to those offended is don't buy the game if you don't like the content: avoid places things that don't make you happy. If one spends one's life looking for offensive material in this world...wow! Sure will be a mad cowboy all the time!

                    If they don't like western culture, they shouldn't buy western games. Pretty unlikely I'll ever buy a Pakistani video game...and if I did, I wouldn't be shocked if something in it dissed me or my culture. Can't change the world, right? So stick to what you like...or at least stfu, lol (not you, Caddys).

                      Most likely any game to come from that area would be about killing infidels or apostates.

                        Even if they had the technical ability to create such a game you would not see anyone int he civilized world making a stink about it.

                            NOt saying we would. Hell, we'd probably play it if the graphics and gameplay were good
