    I think the story mode of the game is good enough to be called legend, it seems like there is only a little optimization problem because amk ryzen5 3400 g pro processor and amd radeon vega 11 I have a video card 6 gb ram, but the game fell to 40 fps in fog and smoke. Except for optimization I THINK the game is well played, but the killer of the ghost is me

    The Campaign is good, but suffers from **** pacing
    The Spec Ops is good, but there isn't too much in Spec Ops in this game.
    The Multiplayer Was (Was because now its hard to find a match) broken, just plain ridiculous aswell.
    Overall 6/10, which in my book is still pretty good but leaning very much towards mediocre.

    I'm not much of a fan of Call of Duty, but this game, and its predecessor, stands out to me. I did enjoy the singleplayer, start to finish, and I replayed it several times going for the Veteran difficulty run. The multiplayer? Meh. I see tons of reviews bashing the community (which is horrible),

    Don't get me wrong, Modern Warfare 2 was an absolute blast to play, featuring a thrilling singleplayer campaign (it isn't as good as World at War, /Black Ops I & II story but it does the job), A very very enjoyable multiplayer in spite of the balancing issues, and spec ops can be really fun with a friend

    However the PC Port is just terrible. -No FOV Slider -No Console Access -No

    However the PC Port is just terrible.
    -No FOV Slider
    -No Console Access
    -No Server Browser
    -Lack of extensive graphical options
    -No kicking/banning of players
    -Locked at 90 FPS
    -No Frame Limiter
    -No Option for Uncapped Framerate
    -Hacker Problem (due to no Anticheat measures/compromised matchamaking)

    Yes its a 12 year old game but the thing was, most of these features were already present in Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and Call Of Duty: World at War PC versions, 2 years before this came out.

    Overall, a blockbuster game that had lackluster PC port.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. ( bu eleştiri 2021 yılında yapılmıştır ) online değerlendirilmemiştir.... ve bu eleştiride spoiler vardır. İlk önce oyun vuruş hissi güzel grafikler yeterli düzeyde dizaynlar idare eder. İlk defa bir oyunda bomba kullanmanın boktan olması beni rahatsız etti! sadece bomba için geçerli ses bombaları kullanmak ise keyifli. silahlar güzel! silahların geri sekmesi ve çkardığı sesler... silahlar gayet iyi olmuş. Ama bazı bölümlerde sinir oldum örnek (spoiler) bir bölümde makarov un ekibiyle rusları kesiyoruz ama makarov ölümsüz! vursak bile işlemmiyor :D ve FBI lar............ oyunun 2 yada 3 bölümünde fbı var biri makarov un görevinde fbı kalkanları siz kullandığınızda çok hızlı kırılıyor. ama başka biri kulllandığında kırılmıyor adeta! ve şu general shepherd ada sinirliyim son tatmin edici değil. captain mac tavish ile shepherd a bıçak atıyorsunuz.. VE BİTTİ oyunun sonu bu! oyunda İİİNANNILLLMAZZZ bug var. Bug şelalesi ( sanki cyberpunk 2077 lol ) ve sinir olduğum bir bölüm var. insanların arasına dalıyorsunuz mapin adı takedown ve sivillere vurmamanız gerekiyor! ama düşmanlar sivillerin arkasında. Yapay zeka ise 6/10 ortalama yapay zeka var. Bu saydığım etkenlere rağmen oynanırmı? sanırım evet görmezden gelmeye çalışırsanız oynanır. Expand

    I don't know why the game has low ratings, because of the graphics? Still, MW2 is great. Soundtrack, story, game design, gameplay. Even that legendary scene where Ghost and Roach are killed makes you cry.

    These maps are terrible. You cannot spawn without getting dropped by an acr with an acog or a sniper. Not to mention the time to kill is too fast. Hard to have any fun when you get spawn killed half the time, and the other half you die just trying to find a position to fight from, to find any concept of cover.

It is basically impossible to win gunfights against even mildly good console players. I have thousands of hours of cod expirience and this game is the worst by far. If i dont uncomfortably tryhard i have no chance what so ever. Time to kill is so bad its insane, new gunsmith is absolute trash bc it forces you to play with bad guns to unlock things that you want for your meta guns, further putting you at a large disatwantage. Camping is the ovious solution if you want to unlock some killstreaks, sit back, plug in an controller and dont even move the sticks, you just need to press aim and the aimlock will do its thing, its that bad, and if you combine that with just a slight upward motion on your aim stick then you will always immedatly land headshots in miliseconds. The keyboard and mouse expirience is so bad that i wish i could still refund the game, but i played more than 2h bc i played the story first (its quite good for a cod game). As of right now, you should not buy the game on pc. You shouldnt get the game at all but if you really want to play, play on console bc you cannot disable crossplay, the aimlock will help you destroy any pc player you encouter. Have fun with the worst cod game i ever played. Expand

    The PC version of Modern Warfare 2 is identical to the console versions in almost every way, and that's actually the problem. PC gamers have a certain expectation for online shooters. Removing dedicated server and user mod support from a game that's already $10 more than its predecessor seriously hinders the long term appeal for me.
  2. Modern Warfare 2 will leave you breathless.
  3. It looks better, it plays better, the story is more intense and the multiplayer is more inviting. And with the inclusion of SpecOps, the longevity of this game is sure to have increased as well.
