    Just make the setting fictional or stick to the facts. It's really appalling to see them present atrocities done by their side as if they are done by their adversaries.

    The online multiplayer isn't call of duty, it is more like a cs:go, the game is full of tryhards and the maps are the worst part, there are a lot of spawn problems, some maps are almost unplayable, lots of campers, the history make the US a hero obviously, like always, it is more of the same, unfortunately...

    After CoD MW 2, the CoD franchise quality only decreased. The only thing this game is good at is the gun play and the balanced multiplayer (Perks etc.).

    If you like video games where you die for morons who stay in a corner, this is your ideal game. Not even Dark Souls annoys me as much as the Modern Warfare **** community, or rather, Call Of Duty Ghost 2

    Where shall we start? I will say the game play was okay, had some good moments but was a very sudden end. The on line play is getting progressively worse, it seems there is little care about the level 15 players with maxed guns and gunning you down from 150 meters, or dual welding pistols with 100% accuracy, Maybe the sword and shield players running through bullets to stab you, orWhere shall we start?

Can it we split the PC and console players ? Anything to make the game fun again? Expand

Our country strongly controls people with eastern appearance on the streets. Terrorism in our country has gone to a minimum. I'm not a patriot myself, but at such scenes in the game I want to send Activision and spit in the face of a person who wrote the story. The scene with the gallows killed me completely. I said it all. Expand

Some people can't afford to spend 60 dollars for something that doesn't work, you put out the money just to see you can't play. What if like me you live in a rural area without highspeed internet, then you'll get a nice 99+ hour update.... I give it a 1 because Activision/Infinity Ward made a good game that only some who pay for it can actually play. Very bad business practice. Of course people will still hand over wads of cash and that'll encourage developers like this to rush out unfinished games. It should not be allowed for developers and publishers to sell unplayable copies of games... Once you buy it it should immediately and always be ready to play, every other game except God of War who also did this, updates are optional if you are just playing single player offline... Expand

    I could care less about the short campaign, whether Russians, Germans, or even Americans are the bad guys. I just want a good multiplayer shooter which this game doesn't deliver. Horrible map designs (BIG maps with so many things in between which reminds me of Ghosts), no only 5 classic modes available (No Kill Confirmed) plus 3 new boring modes.

    This review is focused on the multiplayer. The multiplayer is just a big bag of trash. Activision tried to make an oldschool cod, but failed so hard. Gunplay and the Weapons are ok, but thats the only good points. The maps are bad. You die within 2-3 bullets and cant even react when you get shootet from the side or from behind.

The Russian army did not occupy one country for 20 years. Ehhh, and the scriptwriter had such potential to show both the American army on the unintended side, and the Russian, in general, they earn more money in the war.
    It’s a pity that the good American soldiers for world peace, and only damned Russians are trying to achieve this. Guantanomo screenwriter doesn't remember, huh? although not, if he remembered, most likely, and this would also be connected with Russia.

    Not anything special. If you havent purchased already i would not. Feels like old COD but the maps are AWFUL, servers AWFUL, and the gameplay is even worse because everyone sits in corners or head glitches on the roofs of buildings you cant see. Total camp fest, don't buy

    This game, like any other, should have nothing to do with propaganda. This is a good example of how the information war is going on today. I think that the gaming industry should be free from this, so that at least in one place the peoples are not enemies for each other.

    Vorurteile und nochmals Vorurteile, schlechte Russen gute Amerikaner und Engländer... Die Grafik ist super, das wars aber auch schon, die Kämpfe sind stumpf und altbacken, der Kauf lohnt sich nicht, es sei denn man möchte ein paar Russen abknallen. Mehr gibts dazu nicht zu sagen.

    Story translated into Russian, and the original is not the same. Actions in the game hint at the real story but at the same time they are very distorted.

    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.
