    Another story about brave Americans and bad Russians. I really loved the old one Modern Warfare series, but this game is NOT about people who was like betrayed the homeland and became terrorist (like Makarov).

This game about whole Russian government who for some unclear reasons attack and take into slavery people of another country. It seems to me when this game was created by developers, they turned to the history of the United States and pulled out pieces and rewrote it blaming the Russians for everything. Slavery, racism, and extermination of the indigenous population are all the sins of the United States, but for some unknown reason, all of this has been blamed on the evil Russians. Expand

    Activision declared information war on Russia, came up with a vile lie. Let's not buy company products, donate to hackers to hack their products. Let's transfer the money as soon as possible to whoever hacks this vile game.

There is not a word of truth in the game, and American developers attribute their own sins to the Russians.

    Эта игра - одна большая яма с помойной пропагандой, которая давит на педаль демонизации русских и России.

Как долго ждать, когда нам расскажут, что русские сбросили атомные бомбы на Хиросиму и Нагасаки?

    I used to like the “Call of Duty” series. I remember when my first game was CoD 2, where the stealth mission in Stalingrad was my favorite. I enjoyed the game with Viktor Reznov, a very charismatic person in the series. And I enjoyed playing on Russian side, because I am Russian. And now, in 2019, this game comes out...

    Well, yes, I’m Russian, but I live in Western Europe, and I am aware

    Well, yes, I’m Russian, but I live in Western Europe, and I am aware of the many talks about tolerance and respect to all nations. These discussions also have influence on Activision and Infinite Ward. YET, you show my country as “The Kingdom of Evil” and my countrymen as slaughterers and sadistic murderers, who only wants to torture and kill innocent civilians, in the most brutal ways. You are just spreading a message to players: “Look at these Russians! We what they’re doing with civilians! They are not normal like us, they are terrorists!”. You even replaced American war crimes with Russian ones (talking about the “Highway of death”). The only positive Russian person in the game is Nikolai, and that’s it (Egor is Ukrainian, according to description).

    Don’t tell us that “it’s both sides of the war” and about those “gray spots” on the protagonist’s side. Their actions in the game are nothing, compared to Barkov’s and the Russian ones! And please don’t tell me that it’s just a game! In the same way, I can say that “Mein Kampf” is just a book. It’s a dirty propaganda against Russia and Russians themselves.

    I’m not a huge patriot of Russia, and I’m not a huge fan of Putin and Russia’s foreign policy, but you must have some sort of respect and tolerance towards your geopolitical enemy...just a little. But it seems that Activision and Infinity Ward don’t take care of that as much as me, so from now I will also not care about CoD-series, and I will stop buying their games. Thank you, developers of “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare” for that!

Interestingly, Activision thinks that you can flip everything on its head with the click of a finger? Or the fact that we don't know the history?Let's remember Iraq, Vietnam, Korea.Especially when the United States is considered the most tolerant country, it suffers from Russophobia, is not this an example of double standards?Don't even try to buy our reviewers to make us play this.With love to all Slavs from Belarus.

    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.
