    Very realistic game! Russia is portrayed as a cruel enemy of the world just like in real life. Great graphics, awesome gameplay/gunplay. One of the best shooters in a long time.

    Minus one point for many minor bugs and glitches and minus another for terrible UI. Other than that, a great game! BTW Don't get fooled by the russbots. This game has Russian bad guys, true, but has US bad guys as well, and arguably they're even worse.

    Very solid campaign I actually enjoyed slowed pace and lot of stealthy missions. I kinda dislike few of desert ops. Very serious camping, without stupid jokes or fortnite kids playing in warfare. Nice and pleasant experience from the start to finish.

    I don't give a **** about multiplayer, ie for me the game is amazing, perfect graphics, and great realism/violence. Probably the most realistic COD there is, it has a mission in a house at night it is so perfect it looks real

    THIS GAME IS JUST NOT WORTH A 10 BECAUSE I STRESSED A LOT WITH THIS GAME CLOSING ITSELF. HAD POTENTIAL

    Well it was not so bad, definitely a good one for a long time, if you do not think about the logic of mass murdering Russian soldiers then the gameplay is very nice, enjoyed it, but please make the story more balanced and do not accuse Russians of what was done by the US. 8/10

Despite of the fact that game lobbies are not that populated today especially after the release of Vanguard it still does not take a lot of time to find a match and just overall it is not a very big issue (at least yet). As for the campaign...well... i liked it (not going to leave my comment about the Russians thing as i have my own opinion on that matter that should not reflect here).
    Overall this is great game with stunning visuals, sounds and just amazing animations.

    Was definitely sure about my score for it being positive and considering that this one is definitely not perfect (which takes out 10), between 8 and 9 i am stopping on the second one

The movement is a little bit on the slower side because they were aiming for a more realistic title. Going back to the campers it felt like every new weapon or attachment, even every map that got introduced to the game post launch promoted extreme camping and slow gameplay. Several bugs and errors from time to time that got quickly corrected some of them, settings changing change by themselves for some reason, and that has not been fixed yet, but that is not a big deal. In general it was a good game. Expand

    One of the best game in the series. Well known characters, likeable story and by far the best stealth missions COD has ever seen. Loved every moment of the campaign.
    On top of that they changed nearly everything related to movement, gun control etc. This is what players wanted and turned out really really well.

    The return of the Modern Warfare franchise finally came and what a comeback.

    Graphics: This game is deserving of the title of 2019's most beautiful title. With near photo-realistic characters and lighting as well as using Infinity Ward's next-gen engine, it's a 10/10 in this aspect.

    Sound: The audio fidelity in this game is like no other. Fully customizable audio quality, music perfect for each level and perfect sound design for all weapons, they did an amazing job.

    Campaign: The black sheep of the user reviews, but I chose to believe this comes from people who didn't actually pay attention to the game, it surely is controversial, but saying that the whole point of the game is "Russia bad" is absolute nonsense, hell, the game itself says that in the ending, but I won't spoil. Containing stealth invasion missions at the beggining, turning to open field combat and ending on the highest possible note, it's the highest selling point of this game.

    Multiplayer: The charm I thought was lost long ago in Black Ops II finally returns. Full boots on the ground combat, fully customizable weapons and all classic gamemodes returned. Of course, it's not perfect, the noob-tube became the RPGs and C4's, but I guess it's part of the old MW2 charm.

    Warzone: When another Battle-Royale mode was announced, I thought of how big of a letdown Blackout was, but boy-oh-boy was this good. Custom class integration, the gulag fights, an amazing open map that joins all multiplayer maps, what's not to love?

    Co-op: It's a nice addition, but a far cry from what the MW3 spec-ops was, this is a mere imprint of the shadow of it's former self, probably the low point of the game and what I spent less time playing.

    Overall, if you crave that old nostalgia from the original MW franchise or the old Black Ops days, this game is an absolute must-play.

    It has been a long time since I enjoyed a single player campaign mode in COD. Although short, this was what I have been searching for in a COD game for too long. Definitely worth getting for the campaign alone.

    Dopo diversi capitoli sotto tono finalmente si ritorna alla guerra moderna senza jetpack e senza armi futuristiche o "antiche" della prima/seconda guerra mondiale.
    A migliorare il tutto è l'aggiunta di DLC totalmente gratuiti. Quindi mappe gratis aggiunte periodicamente. Sto facendo questa recensione a distanza di 7 mesi e vi posso confermare che sono pienamente soddisfatto delle mappe implementate. (unica nota negativa è il pass stagionale a mio avviso..ma è comunque opzionale e oltre a dare skin estetiche dà anche dei progetti che apportano modifiche alle armi standard, ma comunque niente di troppo peso).
    Sta di fatto che non provavo così tanto piacere nel giocare un Call of Duty dai tempi di Black ops. Veramente un bel lavoro da parte degli sviluppatori!!!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. After many years of incompetent yearly releases, it seems they finally got it right. Here are my favorite 5 improvements:

    1- Best campaign in many years, probably since MW2. More about it below.
    2- Cross-play! Now I can finally use my controller on PC without getting rektd (I grew up playing this game with a controller, Master Race).
    3- The monetizing system does away with the loot boxes, and map packs to split the player base mid-year.
    4- Ground War mode, the best thing from Battlefield (after destructible environments) with a Call of Duty feel.
    5- Spec Ops brings back the hardcore co-op play, missing since MW2 and MW3. A nice breather from the tired zombies.

    Now, you have probably read Glavset trolls on this site, taking a break from campaigning for Trump, to review-bomb this game. Yes, the campaign packs a punch. Potential spoiler: Since it's a reboot, the possibility of many old characters from the series to return is real.

    The reward system is very grindy, but again, fair. It makes it very tempting to pay up, until I'm reminded I'm investing all this money in a game that will be unceremoniously replaced next year (the yearly games is the one thing they still need to work on).

    If you're like me, a former player of Call of Duty in their glory days of Modern Warfare 1, 2 and 3, who stopped playing years ago, you may want to give this game a chance.

    Overall I'm enjoying the game so far, especially since I got it on sale.

    Campaign is a weakpoint as I feel most FPS games are, but the Multiplayer is where it really shines. I've never been a huge, or life-long, fan of Call of Duty - and I've much preferred Battlefield up until it went to World War I and II settings - but this one has sparked an interest in the series again. I hope this is a sign of things to come.

    Just to say it right off the bat, I haven't had such a great time with a Call of Duty game since BO1. The singleplayer story was good, slightly confusing and shall we say a little bit of propaganda? But overall I thought it was good. The characters you play felt like soldiers, not overpowered, if not slightly. But hey, you are the main guy right?
    The Co-op aspect was rather hard with some
    Just to say it right off the bat, I haven't had such a great time with a Call of Duty game since BO1. The singleplayer story was good, slightly confusing and shall we say a little bit of propaganda? But overall I thought it was good. The characters you play felt like soldiers, not overpowered, if not slightly. But hey, you are the main guy right?
    The Co-op aspect was rather hard with some missions, perticuly the Paladin mission, but doable with a coordinated group of friends.

    Now the meat of the bones is of course the multiplayer for me, as with many other people. I am currently addicted to the multiplayer. The weapons are generally fun to use, each and everyone of them, though some more overpowered than others (M4A1). It's a bummer that most players choose to use this gun, makes the game seem a little uninteresting to me, I never see a new combination of guns, attachments and perks. But there is no rule against it, but it personally bothers me a little. You'll see a lot of people using that same gun every other match. Especially on normal, I much prefer HC modes.
    I love the vast ocean of attachments, camo's and charms on the variarities of guns. It's really fun to tinker and figure out what works best to every situation. It feels fun and rewarding to make progressions on all these different guns.
    This is the first Call of Duty that has had a large game mode like Ground War. And I gotta say, not really a fan, yet. Might be since I don't know the maps yet, which I feel you have to in order to do a decent job in this game mode. Sometimes it can feel like wherever you spawn, you die. Spawn and die, over and over until you get a lucky break and get your bearings. Otherwise it's a fun gamemode with tons of oppertunities to conquer.

    Overall I thought this game was and still is very fun to play. It's addictive with a great progression system. The guns feel great to use, and once you master the new mounting system you'll have alot more angles to engage your target. I like this machanic and I hope it stays in future installments. No lootboxes (yet) and I hope the game stays that was, otherwise I might take my score down 2 or 3 points.

    This of course is just my opinion, and I see people are very love it or hate it. Myself am on the positive side. I would recommend this game to any shooter fans and COD fans looking for a fresh take on the COD franchise.

    But there's something different about this latest installment.
    It's been stripped back, simplified and in my subjective experience, almost perfected.

    Regarding the multiplayer specifically, the game demands a more considered, tactical approach to any encounter due to the reduced TTK.

    But instead of it feeling like I'm dying instantly from god-knows-where, the adjustment works in my favour seemingly as I'm putting enemies down first time far more often :)

    CoD used to be a dirty word for me.. but this is this most fun I've had in a multiplayer shooter on PC since BF4.

    Let me start by saying that I haven't played a Call of Duty game consistently, (beat the campaign and played several hours of MP), since Black Ops II. I was hesitant because I don't like the frenetic run and gun style that the last few games seemed to have embraced. I was intrigued by WWII but not enough to warrant a purchase. The last CoD game I really enjoyed was Black Ops.

The last CoD game I really enjoyed was Black Ops.

    To me this game removes a lot of the fluff an unnecessary extras in favor of a great single player campaign and a return to more tactical multiplayer. To me, this game feels like Black Ops and it's a step in the right direction. I don't have the time to devote to gaming like I had 6 years ago but I've still found ways to be successful in all of the different game modes in MP.

    TL;DR
    If you enjoyed Black Ops, chances are you'll enjoy this game too, a return to form for the series!

    1) Графика.
    2) Стрельба.
    3) Звуки.
    4) Спецоперации.
    5) Сюжет-лучший в серии!

    Подробнее о сюжете:
    В нём нет русофобии, тупые идиоты как обычно ничего не поняли. Никто из ругающих игру, судя по всему, не слушал диалоги вообще. Фара считала русских-террористами, потому что её с детства угнетал Роман Барков, а он-русский. Но в конце, когда Фаре и КО помогает Николай, она спрашивает у него-"Зачем помогаешь?", а он отвечает-"Потому что Барков позорит мою страну!", после чего Фара понимает, что не все русские-террористы, а лишь Барков и его люди. И после того, как Фара убивает Романа, она говорит Николаю-"Спасибо!" и говорит она это на русском, что ещё раз подтверждает то, что она поняла, что была не права и что не все русские являются безжалостными убийцами. Собственно Барков, а он отличный злодей, у него есть простая и понятная мотивация. Его людей убили террористы из Урзыкстана и он стал видеть в народе этой страны угрозу, поэтому и вторгся на её территорию. В игре помимо Баркова и его людей есть ещё злодеи-группировка Аль-Катала. А также главные герои далеко не такие уж и герои (туфталогия, я знаю, но зато понятная), они не всегда действуют верно и не всех спасают. И после этого вы хотите сказать, что серой морали нет и злодеи в игре лишь русские? Нет? Ну тогда вы молодцы, раз поняли, что были не правы. А если вы всё ещё не изменили своё мнение, то это значит, что вы тупой идиот и вас сможет исправить лишь... Я думаю вы поняли, что вас сможет исправить. Проблема игры заключается не в сюжете (он просто прекрасный, в нём много тяжёлых и эмоциональных сцен, а также есть серая мораль), а в мультиплеере, который в этом году получился откровенным мусором.

    Последние 5 лет данная франшиза меня лишь радовала, но в этом году мультиплеер меня огорчил, играть я в него не собираюсь. Я возвращаюсь в лучшую часть всей серии-Black Ops 4. А новой MW я бы поставил 7 за всё вместе и 10 лишь за сюжет и кооперативные миссии, но так как игра тонет в куче негативных отзывов, я поставлю ей эти самые 10 баллов.

    Firstly I would like to say that I hate supporting Activision and Blizzard because of recent events but not enough to not play the game and I still want to support Infinity ward.

    With that aside id like to say that this game feels like a really solid game and it has the potential to pull call of duty back into main stream. it has great mechanics that make call of duty what it is and infinity ward did great with it. It has great customisation and they’re heading in the right direction with the complexity of gun attachments, allowing cross play and giving the community game modes they want like ground war and gunfight. Obviously theres things wrong with the game but some of the community are basically saying its unplayable atm which is complete bs. Ive been playing league for the last 2 years so ive had no experience with aim, etc and im only lvl 24.... yet i use the mp5 and have a positive kd and finish top of the leaderboard a lot. Maybe im just lucky or whatever but it feels like the majority of the people saying its unplayable and too hard are just not good at COD Or cant adapt well. Like r u used to call of duty???? Theres always a*ds things killing u ,thats call of duty , you have to learn how to play against it. Obviously there are things that need to be patched, 725 range change, fix claymores, some spawns need changes, mini map changed back too normal and a slight m4 nerf. Why are we so focused on this though? Activision finally give us a good call of duty and all this subreddit is is complaining and complaining. Like yeah the devs need to hear whats wrong rn, BUT WHY ARENT WE CELEBRATING???? Finally we have a COD the community wants and the pc support and crossplay is great since a lot of us have grown up and moved to pc. One thing I would really like to see is a ranked becoming more popular in COD. League has had such success because of esports. COD has a massive fanbase so activision should really push esports and twitch. My only major problem ive had is that my game has been lagging ( I have a gtx 1070, easily should run COD)ive had to turn all setting to low and go into my computer properties to help more with the lag. How the f*ck does a ps4 run a game better than a computer with a gtx 1070 intel-i5 8th gen cpu and an ssd its bu11sh1t i cant even use my 144hz moniter cos it crashed when i tried to use it at 144hz. If any of u on pc can help that would be much appreciated.

    Summary: Stop complaining the devs know whats wrong and enjoy this game ffs

It's pretty clear in the story that the Russians that you're fighting are basically one renegade unit. You eventually end up working with Russian assets.

    It’s hard to tell why there was so much ado about single-player campaign: controversial topics aside, it’s completely mediocre. On the other hand, the multiplayer mode is one of the best in latest instalments of Call of Duty series. [Issue#241, p.49]

    It’s undeniably well-made albeit controversial part of the series. One that tries to break the mold and open itself to another kind of player. It’s worth of praise, even if just for that. I recommend it especially to Battlefield players – you may be pleasantly surprised. [13/2019, p.50]

    Modern Warfare is not a stellar game, but decent first-person shooters about modern conflicts are so few and far between that it’s surprisingly satisfying.
