    This game was okay but the maps are not very good because they promote camping

    The single player campaign had a fairly interesting story mode. Graphics are amazing. They once again (in my opinion) regressed in the multiplayer. I view Call of Duty as a multiplayer games. Since that's why I buy them. So, that's why my score is so low. Campaign couldn't save it.

I wanted the game to be a fun experience and not hearing Gaz or Captain Price speak doesn’t make it fun in any way. I searched and searched for a way to fix this but no solutions for PS4 users.

The campaign had a really nice production and I really admired all the performances, though some missions were definitely way more fun than others. I can't say I remember any of the characters names besides Captain Price who did a really good job, and Farah, who I thought was the standout of the story. I really loved her story and the levels involving her or playing as her were really the only ones I felt emotionally invested in. The tone is definitely aiming for this moral grey area which I think succeeds at times, but also occasionally muddles the story and makes things harder to follow. The gunplay was pretty fun overall though, albeit way too loud and not enough music. But I understand that it was to back the more realistic approach they were going for.

    The multiplayer is really fun, maybe because I haven't played COD multiplayer in a really long time. The biggest standout is being able to mount your gun, which was really suitable for my playstyle. Weapon customization was also amazing. My only problem is a BIG problem. I don't like most of the maps. At least in the baseline game. They definitely improved overtime with the newer maps and even bringing back old ones, but some of these maps had really jumbled layouts and just encouraged camping. I feel like for a lot of them, the combat is always congested in one spot for the entire game instead of spreading out. It usually results in me having an amazing game or a really bad one, with no middle ground.

    I overall had a lot of fun with this game and it restored a lot of interest in this franchise for me. I'm definitely taking each next entry with a grain of salt, but I'll definitely be picking up Cold War because the first Black Ops is still my favorite entry.    … Expand

Игра по очереди бросает нас в декорации экзотические, но при этом, видимо, знакомые среднестатистическому американцу по выпускам новостей: Лондон, условный Ближний Восток, Питер, Грузия. Сторон конфликта тут я насчитал четыре, причём каждая воюет со всеми остальными. Из односложных реплик, которыми перебрасываются персонажи в заставках, понять, какие у кого мотивы, можно лишь очень приблизительно. Да этого и не требуется. Разработчики будто сами смеются над фабулой, помещая на экран загрузки высказывания великих людей о войне вперемешку с дурацкими фразами персонажей игры.
    ***
    Помимо очень условного сюжета у игры есть гораздо более серьёзные проблемы, делающие её далеко не лучшей в серии. Во-первых, она, несмотря на красоту графики, не зрелищна: в оригинальной трилогии Modern Warfare мы от первого лица наблюдали собственную казнь от руки диктатора, присутствовали в эпицентре ядерного взрыва, испытывали разгерметизацию на борту космической станции... Здесь же запомнилась разве что миссия за детей в осажденном ближневосточном городе и спасение заложника посредством координирования с помощью телефона и камер наблюдения. О том, что приближается развязка, я узнал только по тихо звучащей на фоне музыке - другими средствами никакого особенного пафоса под конец не нагнеталось.
    ***
    Вторая серьёзная проблема связана с вялым темпоритмом игры. Лучшие из предыдущих частей Call of Duty были бодрыми забегами по узкому "коридору", через который я с автоматом наперевес несся сломя голову, чувствуя себя крутым морпехом. Здесь же зачем-то на некоторых картах мне дана свобода передвижения, влекущая путаницу, неразбериху и частые смерти. Более того, игра, видимо, заботясь о моих нервах, сохраняется буквально каждые полминуты, и иногда делает это в крайне неудачных местах - под носом у врага, ставя меня в безвыходное положение. В условиях постоянных загрузок крутым морпехом себя, хоть убей, не чувствуешь.    … Expand

    Absolutely horrible online! The new story is cool and has some great new mechanics, however what started as a nice "season 0" quickly developed into a terrible excuse for an online shooter. They spent way too much time adding purchasable crap, instead of improving core elements like matchmaking and spawning. Not to even mention it's taking up 250GB on my hard-drive for no reason!

    The gameplay is reasonably smooth and much like the other call of duty games, features much of the same.

Activision could have ensured the game was optimized for the console before releasing it. For example, like millions of others, my console forces a self shutdown whilst I wait at the menus, which are useless anyway, as skins fail to load in to view in the time between missions. So if you want to customize a class, you need to leave the lobby.… Expand

Luckily for this game, the story is nice and it's a great way to present the story but I don't want to disrespect the original writing/writers for the first 3 MW's. I like how it has been made relevant to modern times and issues which could have just basically been a 4th game to the series with Price leading some new recruits or something but overall it's alright. I'm not racist nor do I care about the color of people but I don't see a point in making Gaz black. He was white in the first game and I think it's completely unnecessary to do that. Might as well make Ssgt. Griggs white right? Of course not. Anyways for the mulitplayer, I feel like there's no more good Call of Duty maps. The first 3 MW's maps as well as World at War and Black Ops 1 had these unique maps but now it's just regurgitations. I feel that the neglected child in this game was definitely the Co-Op mode. There were no players due to the immense difficulty throughout the missions as well as a more boring, static gameplay. To be honest all we need is Survival mode and maybe a co-op version of the campaign or even a side story that takes place throughout the main story line. For me Warzone was great and what sucks is the options for games. It's like every Call of Duty gets good when its 3/4ths it's cycle but by the time that happens, a new Call of Duty is announced and anything built up for it is gone. Take a look at EA's Battlefield series. Sure there's plenty of criticism and especially with how money hungry EA's upper echelon is, but there's definitely more to build on. What I like is that at least CoD isn't a pay to win kind of thing like Star Wars Battlefront 1 an 2. I don't mind microtransactions for cosmetics since they don't give an edge or anything. But Warzone is definitely my main go to now. I applaud them for making the Battle Royale feature a more stable yet fast paced game with a lot to do. My only complaint there is, is that there's only 1 map. I'd like for maybe 2 or 3 if that's not too much or at least a permanent night mode too so it feels like there's 2 maps. I'm gonna just assume that since my PS4 is sounding like a jet taking off everytime I start the game, it's because of the limits of the hardware. Hopefully in the next generation, we can have less loading times/quicker startups and more smooth games as we advance into the next generation of consoles.… Expand

    A very fun game marred by hideously large updates, broken updates and a greedy publisher that does not care about the quality of its game but instead adding more features/feature creep when the foundation is not stable.

    Its call of duty. It plays like every other call of duty game though the slight mechanical and engine changes are a nice touch to making the game feel slightly fresher.

    Its call of duty. It plays like every other call of duty game though the slight mechanical and engine changes are a nice touch to making the game feel slightly fresher. Rather than reiterating what cod is about here are some of the key points that are relevant to both the ps4 and pc version (But predominantly the pc). In addition I'll only be referring to multiplayer and warzone since despite having played hundreds of hours of this game I haven't touched the campaign yet.

    Pro's:
    - Rock solid framerate
    - Generally nice graphics (generally is key with weird ass ailiasing and the general shade of brown)
    - Satisfying gun play
    - Dope sound design with excellent telegraphing and punchy gunshots
    - A genuinely fun battle royale mode which is free to play with plenty of opportunities to jump back into the game rather than having to sit by idly (gulag is obviously a meme but it does make the game better)

    Cons:
    - Crashes a lot
    - Updates are broken. It is 19:15, I have been downloading the update since 12:30 and I still have 51.72gb to go. This is an unacceptable issue as its practically occured with every season update.
    - Unreasonable update sizes. Season 5 is 54gb for pc and 36gb for ps4. My friend who plays on ps4 has had to delete everything else off of her system just to play call of duty which is ridiculous.
    -If you don't buy into battle passes then your sense of reward for playing the game will diminish pretty fast.
    - Bugged challenges/objectives. i have attempted to progress a warzone intel challenge 18 times now yet the game doesn't even register that I've done it.
    - I WILL REITERATE AGAIN. SO MANY BUGS. UPDATES THE SIZE OF STANDALONE AAA GAMES, UPDATES YOU CAN'T DOWNLOAD AND SO MANY CRASHES.

    I genuinely love playing this game and I say that as a person who despises activisions unethical activities as a company. But it's so marred by problems that make the experience not only unfun but insulting.

    Get your thumb out your rear activision and give your devs time to fix the fundemental problems of the game. Though that doesn't give you another giant pile of cash so you'd rather have them spewing out season passes instead.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Worst Call of duty game in franchise history! I was never a fan of the recent call of duty games such as BO3 and 4. Or any of the futuristic looking jetpack wearing, running on walls, exosuit wearing games. So when I first heard the modern warfare franchise was coming back, I was beyond ecstatic...but then I played the game. There where so many bugs with it (that eventually got patched), but you can’t really expect anything else from a new game. Then month after month I witnessed the game getting worse and worse after each update. Now, almost 10 months in, the game is completely and utterly unplayable. Jump into a hardcore game and you get more hitmarkers than in warzone or Battlefield or even in Apex. And that’s the best part of the game that’s the f’ed up part. There are several instances where your shoot at somebody and the bullets just doesn’t connect even though when you record it or watch the killcam, you can see the bullets go through the enemy and hit the wall behind them. The ADS speed on pistols are RIDICULOUS. You can basically sprint and go into full on ADS, shoot, kill the guy, and back into tactical sprint within 0.000000001 second. And they can compete with snipers on long range as well as ARs and SMGs in mid range fights. Therefore the 1 % that is actually moving in this game are running around with pistols and there are no way to counter them 1v1. The maps are horrible and have been requested by the majority to be fixed, same with sounds and camping, but IW refuse to make the game playable. All in effort to cater to bad players. Which is where SBMM comes in to play. The way they solved SBMM is the second worst idea ever by developers. Right behind how they created Modern warfare 2019. It’s currently season 5 and for each patch, the game just gets worse and worse. I’ve gone back to older games just to make sure it wasn’t just my aim and tactics that had gotten worse, but when I constantly go WAY positive on older games where the game is balanced and have a good accuracy during more or less every game....then it’s not on me anymore. Then it’s just the game that needs to be fixed. If you still haven’t bought the game, but are considering buying it... go eat tide pods or something, because that’s way more fun than playing this game. It’s not meant for players to get better, rather it’s meant for people to sit still and remain trash and toxic. Would not recommend even to my worst enemy… Expand

    Everything is upside down. Call of Duty has a better solo campaign than multiplayer after many years. We will remember a perfectly scripted war with a dense atmosphere, but we’ll forget about the unbalanced online multiplayer. [Issue#298]

    After a multiplayer-centric episode, the COD fans will be delight with the return of a nervous and strong solo campaign. Modern Warfare is back with old-fashioned gameplay that is more grounded and efficient. The generous amount of content adds some depth to one of the best chapters of the saga to date. Magic!

    Overall Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is a good title that is marred by the expectations that the Modern Warfare name brings with it. The campaign has some really stellar gameplay moments that are brought down by the mediocre plot. Multiplayer was fun but felt a bit like the competition’s output (despite there being no Battlefield release this year) which may be a turn off for some. I don’t think Modern Warfare 2019 has done anything to make me rethink waiting for substantial price drops to play Call of Duty campaigns, because clearly multiplayer is still Activision’s main focus and that’s just not where I get my kicks.
