As you may imagine, some took issue with hanging holy words above a toilet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperTaz Posted October 23, 2012 Author Share Posted October 23, 2012 Favela returns! http://www.shacknews.com/article/76330/modern-warfare-2-favela-map-returns The controversial "Favela" map has been reinstated in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, after being pulled temporarily due to complaints of religious insensitivity. A small update will let the map show up on playlists again, with the offending portions now removed. The patch is only 17 MB, reports MP1st, which is likely just enough to change the map's trouble spots. So far the patch has only hit the PlayStation 3 version of the game, but this should mean we'll see it coming to all platforms soon. The Favela had previously reused assets from a picture frame in a bathroom, apparently unaware that the calligraphy read: "Allah is beautiful and he loves beauty." Activision apologized and worked on patches for both MW2 and Modern Warfare 3, where the map was reissued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people said having a phrase of Allah in the bathroom degrades him somehow. Don't ask me how. :wacko: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
