    I've had this happen on Bo1 and Waw so far. When I tab out of the game, there is a chance (not everytime) that the game just goes black and overrides everything on my desktop. Can't be closed in task manager. The only way to fix it is to just restart your computer or make a new desktop and keep the game on the other one. Pretty annoying.

      Sounds like its your pc that is having this issue. Never experienced it. What specs are you running? Reinstall your drivers. Could be a hardware issue.

        Aside from the expected lag, I've never had my device completely bricked.
        Do you have anything else open in the background?

          WolflexZ I'm on the latest AMD drivers and I've never had this problem with any other game. It doesn't happen with Bo2 like I said. Haven't played MW3 enough to know.

            TV-MA Could be an hardware issue. Bent pins, ram, gpu, etc. Is it a prebuilt or you've built it yourself.

              WolflexZ Half and half. Bought the parts. Started building it. Realized I'm retarded then took it to Best Buy for them to build it instead. Like I said, NEVER had this happen in any other game before. I would ask around in the Discord but the devs there can't take any criticism whatsoever. Stay far away from there.

                Thats just how old games behave when they have exclusive fullscreen.
                Also your device doesn't get bricked by it.

                    TV-MA as for "criticism" the issue you're mentioning is a game issue that's on Steam too so go ask Activision/Treyarch to fix it if anything
