    The plot of the story is ragged and incomprehensible. And most important -Russians != fascists

    Игра прекрасна, сюжет показывает многие аспекты которые вызывают жжение в районе попы у "патриотов". Мультиплеер тоже сделан качественно, в эту игру хочется возвращаться снова и снова. Мне стыдно из-за того что русские ватники искусственно занижают рейтинг игры

    Тупые ватники из рашки и пара отбитых пендосов засрали мою любимую часть MW, просто потому что там плохие русские и это тупая клюква. Нет! Эта игра отлична и заслуживает высокой оценки как и все части MW. Очень жду продолжение этой серии. Хочу увидеть Шепарда, Соупа и Захаева).Тупые ватники из рашки и пара отбитых пендосов засрали мою любимую часть MW, просто потому что там плохие русские и это тупая клюква. Нет!

    I think its the best Call of duty game. So realistic game with guns, ragdolls and i Think it has the best Campaign.
    Metacritic should do something about this review bombings by Russian people. It's just a game

    для всех идиотов и подстилок мэдисона я хочу заявить что нельзя делать столь тупые выпады в сторону режиссёров одиночной кампании, это всего лишь вымысел и не надо принимать его как оскорбление

    Poor optimization for old components like GTX 10 and 9 series card -1 (More than 2 of my friends met the problems of sudden dropping frame, not responding blah blah blah, even with 1080).
    Instant changing of playstyle environment -1 (I’m not saying shorter ttk is bad. I played cod since cod4, after so many years of high ttk environment, make this change is not friendly at least for me. If so many people already got used to it, why change? There is no absolute good and bad for high and low ttk. Why we just stick with the previous one. Camp fest and hipfire masters everywhere is not interesting.)
    Poor spawns even in domination -1 (I thought this issue was completely solved instead of partially, I’m a domination player, I get knifed just after I spawned in the point that we have, and tbaged, both in beta and in the released version now which is 1.0.)
    Bad visibility in certain maps -1 (“you just don’t have a good sight lul loser” Check what others saying. Highlighting player model does not make sense in making the corners brighter. Every time I get shot from the dark, resident evil like corner I only saw a red name on that person’s head but not his physical head.)
    Poor netcode -1 (Who don’t have a friend on the other side of the country. Up to 170ms ping when I connected from west to east coast. Half a mag hit marks, get instant 1 shot hipfire on my stomach. I mean, Woah. I thought xfinity 1gbps plan is gonna work lul)
    Poor story telling in campaign -1 (Don’t tell me I get political bias, even without the political hatred, compare this with old modern warfares, even to the mw3. You told me it is great? If mw3 get a B, this is D for me. And pls, don’t compare with the bo3 campaign, no one likes that.)
    TTK for different weapon is weird -1(why I use shotty in 5 yards, shoot him on the upper chest, and he lived and hipfire me to death with 2 bullets from his m4? Why my p90 is like pea shooter? This problem can be fixed by players data, but for now, -1. This makes me uncomfortable.)
    The left three points for:
    Nice graphics. Last time I was that amazed is from BF3.
    The coop special ops, coop and survive is always interesting.
    The night vision mode, that is pure hardcore tactical one, + 1pt.
    It is a relatively objective review just for the game itself. No political, no hatred, just the game. It still cannot be count as a good game, for now.

    The story is OK but very controversial and seems to go for shock value more than actual story.

    Multiplayer at this stage is the worst "boots on the ground" experience yet. The time to kill is 0.4 seconds, but for you it's much longer.
    Same crappy connections as every year, except the guns do more damage, meaning turn a corner = insta death.

    Best Call Of Duty Game to date !

    Normally I never write reviews because I know there are thousands of dem online, but with this game I just have to .

    - Campaign:
    The singleplayer campaign is the best in the series .
    It shows you exactly how horrifying war can be and it does not censor anything . Hanging people that do not obey , shooting mothers and children just because they were in the way , it is all there and it’s scary how authentic it all is . I really don’t know how to review the campaign without spoiling something so i will say this : Realistic , gritty, brutal , ugly . It’s a mature story and I would advise parents not to buy this game to their 13 YO child .

    - Co-Op missions:
    This is something that I did not get in to a lot but the missions are challenging and require communication and coordination within the Squad to successfully made it through . The mode is hard , challenging and rewarding . I honestly find it better than zombies .

    - The Bread and Butter of Call Of Duty ( Multiplayer):
    Old fan favourite game modes like Team Deathmatch, free for all ,search and destroy and domination are back, but this time around instead of a battle Royale mode ( Blackout ) they went with a large scale battlefield ( 48 and 64 players ) with multiple objectives . Just imagine domination but on a extra large map with 5 control points , 32v32 and vehicles such as Helicopters and Tanks . As we all know this is Battlefield territory and no one does large scale combat better than DICE , but it is quite refreshing to see CoD as potential competition. Knowing Infinity Ward they will polish the mode as of right now it’s really chaotic and favouring Snipers and vehicles camping on the edge of the map just waiting for kills , but that’s the mentality of CoD players , it was always about that KD and Teamwork and objective plays were never that important till now. The second new mode that works amazingly well and is fun and competitive is Gunfight . Maps smaller than Nuke Town tailored for 2v2 fights where each team gets the same different load out every round . It is highly skill based and I am sure will become a fan favourite - Gameplay:
    This reimagined Modern Warfare brings new Weapon handling, recoil and bullet drop to the table, making weapons feel way more realistic than before . It’s a mix of battlefield and Rainbow Six: Siege . You can actually feel the weight of the weapons and every weapon feels different and unique. Call of Duty players that are used to older Titles will need a while to adjust to the new handling model ,but once you cross the barrier it feels amazing and satisfying.

    - Graphics and Sound This is the thing that everyone will notice once they start up the game. The new Game Engine works like a charm. Call of Duty has never looked so real and beautiful. Transition from cinematic to first person is seamless and very well done. Night maps actually require you to use your night vision goggles , otherwise you won’t be able to see anything. Talking about night vision, with the Goggles on I had the feeling that I am watching a real live footage of a Spec Ops operation , it’s breathtaking.
    The music theme is gritty and intense , with some levels having no music at all, things that really immerse you. The weapons sound meaty and powerful, the environment is indistinguishable from real life. - Verdict:
    I am a Battlefield player and have been with the franchise since 2012. The thing that made me loose interest in Call of Duty was the unrealistic weapon feel , all of the running and gunning and lack of objective based gameplay . This game extends the CoD formula to a new horizon with a heavy focus of objective , slower paste , tactical gameplay leaving you with a choice : do you wish to go all In guns blazing and run and gun through the whole map or are you going to look for that sweet angle or maybe use the new verticality possibility’s and search for a good flanking route. It’s up to you how you approach each objective.
    As a whole the game is a solid package that offers enough game modes to satisfy every FPS player.
    I am amazed what infinity Ward has done this year and I feel that this year I will spend a lot of hours with this one . I have played the game on High Settings on 1080p achieving around 75 - 90 FPS , average 80.
    Intel i7 8750H GTX 1060 6 GB 16 GB RAM .

    - Game modes are incredibly diverse and never leave you wanting more.

    - Maps -- to me -- are the perfect size. Large enough to be able to use any weapon type on almost any map. Think back to mw2 - mw3 maps. These are the same style.

    - Overall, this game is call of duty. After a long break I've taken from the series, coming back to this is refreshing. W/o trying to chase nostalgia, this game has what I believe most of us were looking for from a new installment of cod.

    - No lootboxes... yet.

    Cons:

    No spec-ops available

    ----------------------
    Note: Find the review bombing about the bad guys being Russian to be very weird.

    For example "When will we see terrorists from the USA or Europe? Or are you afraid of this?" - anatata
    or
    "Propagandistic s**t about Russian army, political bit**es Activision. We’re Americans army kills every one who don’t won’t americas “democracy “ or don’t won’t share his oils? 0" - Maxs123

    I understand a section of the world sees the USA as warmongers, but I would put too much credence in these reviews. Many seem to be from russians or other ex-soviet bloc countries. This game does not deserve a 0/10

    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]

    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.
