    Новая графика и звук - это хорошо, но игра ведь все равно устарела.

    Remasterception : Remastering a game with the same old engine.

    Seriously, game does not look like a remaster at all, what's more, runs much more worse than the original Modern Warfare, and -sometimes- look worse than it in graphical aspect. CONS -Poorly optimized -Bad and unrealistic animations (especially death animations) -Original one is still better than this Remastered    Remasterception : Remastering a game with the same old engine.

    PROS
    +Some new gun sounds are great
    +Original (same) voices of all characters
    +Some graphical additions

    COD games are already remastered edition of each other (even DLCs of each other), so no one needs a remaster of a COD game. Cheap moves from the big AAA companies these days, seriously...    … Expand

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered is a relatively solid throwback that did more than most people had expected. It is not flawless, evidently, but it works.

    Multiplayer review?

    On launch day; only 134 players in the past 11 minutes, in the last 24 hours there was 451 players, all time was 6,075 players (stats from SteamCharts).

    You WILL be spending most of your time in lobbies. At this point, someone should create a Discord server so that people that want to play the game can get into lobbies quick and easy with players that also want to play this game. Mostly everyone is playing either TDM or HC TDM, all I want to play is HC SnD.

    I personally only bought it because the original COD 4 on PC never had a workable lobby like on Xbox 360/PS3, only a server browser. So Infinity Ward never gave and/or stopped supporting Official servers like what MWR has. I searched for a lobby in HC SnD, we had 5 players and we needed 1 more player to play. A guy in our lobby stated "this might be the first time I might actually play HC SnD." Believe it or not, we didn't play, we found no one. He told us to switch to normal SnD to see if we can find a match there, nope, same results.

    What Activision should do is give a chunky discount to users who have COD 4 in their Steam library.

    Pros;
    - The game itself, oh my... The memories.
    - Graphics
    - Game lobbies
    - Some of the guns got improved sounds, some should have just been left alone.
    - Better animations

    Cons;
    -- The price, I paid $49.59 (from its standard $80, during the MWR standalone launch sale) for the deluxe edition to have both IW and MWR. The MWR price, then with the expectations to buy the DLC (I didn't) also to play on all the maps, the standard price point of MWR is stupidly high for a remastered game that has a dead community.
    - MWR is filled with Activision’s greed. Microtransactions up the bum hole.
    - New weapons, are they really needed? Including melee weapons, really? Can you just leave that for other crap CoD titles?
    - No dedicated servers, all peer to peer host connections like normal CoD.
    - Game modes show a % size, instead of an actual number. This means you don't know actually how many players are in a game mode.
    - Small community = only x amount of game modes can actually be played. Everything else is a ghost town. Most, if not all game modes have "< 5%" of people playing/searching for that game mode. In reality, it's probably like 0.5%. Get into a lobby and it says 'No Match Found.'
    - The snipers. You were able to quick scope easily in the COD 4. In this? It's slow and horrible.
    - It has 0 Steam integration whats so ever in-game. When I click on a player names, it should have the option to go to that users Steam profile (like how Xbox and PlayStation has one to go to a users 'gamercard/profile).'

    Bugs/Glitches:
    - At times when people are talking during the process of the match being over and goes back to the main lobby. The game freezes for a few seconds and the players voices just repeat.
    - Even with extra video memory available the game can easily lag and hiccup when loading into a match. It will then lag and hiccup again once you get into a match, but after awhile it doesn't do it anymore.

    Tips:
    - Upon starting the game, be sure to pre-cache the shadows. If you don't you will receive server timeout messages when entering a match due to all the shadows that you need to load.

    At this point in time, they should just do cross-platform with Xbox/PlayStation so that we can play with them.

    MWR multiplayer is not worth it right now. But, if you have the extra cash lying around get it. It's not that bad if you just close your eyes when you see the paid DLC and microtransactions.    … Expand

    Beautiful and Dull
    Modern Warfare remasteredd is a remastered version of 2007s Call of Duty 4
    This now 10 year old game has been polished and looks and feels like it fits in with modern games today.
    This game features of course a multiplayer mode that is easily the most fun mode of this game, featuring your standard call of duty competitive modes as well as a mode I haven’t seen in a call of duty game before prop hunt where you switch sides being a prop and hiding and being the team searching for the props
    though this online multiplayer does add in a loot box system for the modern day to unlock items such as skins
    I didn’t find maps to be anything special, but as of right now this is the purest form of simple gunplay offered from a call of duty on current gen consoles, so if that’s what youre searching for you wont be disappointed as shooting is just as smooth and fun as its always been
    Speaking of not special though, I havnt played every call of duty game to date, but out of the 6 I have played.. this 6 hours campaign is easily the dullest ive played through…
    its generic and uneventful throughout..
    you play through the perspective of 6 different characters, though if I didn’t tell you this you would have no clue, as every character and mission feels and looks nearly identical throughout
    This campaign takes place in the middle east and Russia as youre dealing with both a civil war as well as taking out targets responsible for the execution of a middle eastern president..
    The level design here is boring
    I didn’t play the original call of duty 4 but I had so much dejavu playing this game like ive played it 1 million times before
    that’s how uninspired this games design is
    everything was so predictable, no cool set pieces or cool moments like call of duty is known for today..
    just your typical linear
    go forward and shoot things, and search houses that you know your target isn’t in but do it any way just cause… until you get to the end and climb in a helicopter
    ive never been so bored playing through a first person shooter campaign in my life…
    theres just nothing special here….
    its mediocre
    For its time Call of Duty 4 may have been a great and innovative game…
    But today Modern Warfare Remastered is a collection of a mediocre shooter campaign and an okay competitive mode…
    youre better off just waiting down the line for call of duty world war 2 for whats sure to be a much more complete package
    I give Call of Duty Modern Warfare Remastered

    Mediocre copy paste remaster that doesn't really look all that impressive. Add to that its crappy controls and FOV that sucks ass and you'll just be glad this remaster came free with a new Call of Duty title, which also happens to be a disappointing release.

    Infinity Ward does a pretty solid job at remastering one of Call of Duty's most iconic games in the franchise, however the game never got to succeed as the company forced players to purchase Infinite Warfare in order to play it and the multiplayer quickly died as a result. If you buy this game you are only going to be able to play the campaign, however it is still a decent game regardless.

    More beautiful graphics in Remaster is, of course, a good idea, but nothing more. Just improving the graphics of the old game for 2020, in my opinion, are laziness and greed. Because such Remaster completely preserves not only the story, but also all those flaws of game mechanics and game design that were forgivable for the old game once upon a time. But not in the games of 2020 year.

    The original game received from me 9, I really liked it, but to this game I will give the maximum average rating 7... I can not give high("green") ratings for a banal pulling up graphics without fixing the "flaws from antiquity."    … Expand

    At first, I had some bad graphichs experiences with this remastered game and it made me really frustrated. There were lag problems too. Then I solved these problems and enjoyed the amazing story-telling of this game again. It's quite remarkable. But it has a very short campaign... Finished it in only 5hrs on record.

    It’s nice to see old friends again and relive fond memories, but if Modern Warfare somehow failed to enrapture you back in the day, it most likely won’t do it now. [13/2016, p.40]

    Ultimately, Call of Duty Modern Warfare Remastered might be the best remaster I’ve ever played. Everything is updated and beautiful, without losing a single thing long-time fans loved about the original. If you’ve ever wanted to see where the online multiplayer craze started, this is it – and it holds up amazingly well.

    An exemplary remaster of a classic shooter which is still a milestrone of the genre as far as gameplay is concerned.
