    I only gave this game 1 cause it had good campaign, but multiplayer has so many hackers, game crashes too many times, developers are not fixing any thing nor addressing any issues, with all my heart I hope this game dies soon.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. propaganda of bad Russians, this time really crossed the line. I’m not even my own patriot strange (Russia), but the plot part hit me, it's overkill. well, damn tolerance was not complete, the farah woman is a super hero, in a dialogue between an American general and a military woman, a black woman meets and sends a white man, bravo. and most importantly, I’m talking about the highway of death, why Russia was dragged into this if the Americans launched air strikes.

    Another propaganda against Russia. They spoiled any attitude on the part of Russia. Showed Russian some barbarians, although we are not close to doing what you show in almost every mission of the game. And if you look at the history of the 90 years, in which you just participated in these operations. Why distort history?

    If the game started with a disclaimer saying "Careful: War crimes you are about to see were perpetrated by the USA but we're blaming everything on the Russians to make you feel better about your pathetic western civilization" I would've given at least a good 3/10.

    There is lot to unlock in the multiplayer, and challenges and multiplayer missions can extend the playtime a lot. Just be ready for those campers sitting in corners with 725-shotguns...

    5/10

    Coop:
    This mode is still not working, I rallied up some friend but we got an infinite loading screen or a bugged menu when we tried to join each other.
    No score.

    Multiplayer:
    The graphics are good most of the time. There are plenty of different modes and mode playlists to play everything you want. The map design is good. The weapons are feeling very good and there are lots of attachments. Sadly everyone is playing the same meta loadout most of the time. And there is a general lack of polishing everywhere. Also the community of this game is still VERY bad and there are lots of cheaters as well.
    6/10

    Summary:
    This could be a good or even a great game if Activision would actually give a sh!t. I was at a 6/10 but I am subtracting two points because the Coop isn´t working and because of the fact that this game is still feeling like an unfinished Beta after two years worth of updates. Still not a bad game but everyone saying things like "best shooter of the decade" has no clue what he is talking about.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. When I first started playing I was really enjoying myself the ttk took some getting used to. I haven't played cod since ghosts was released as I didn't like the futuristic setting. Firstly just want too say the The campaign was amazing in this game. I'm level 147 online so it's fair too say iv been playing it alot. I'm just bored with it already there is next too no rewards after level 55 there isn't really much incentive to keep playing I'm not a great fan of the maps apart from 2 which are reasonably fun too play but the majority of them are just boring and lack any real character. There is no map in the game that is iconic or anything like the old maps from mw2 or mw 1 there just nothing really too them. Also thought I'd add the gun Smith is amazing it's great the amount of options you have to customise the weapons. Might be an unpopular opinion but I dont think there are anywere near enough guns in the game there could of been so much more variety. I know you can make variants through gunsmith but really there isnt alot of base weapons in the first place. I like the game but I'm just fed up with it abit now it needs more content and more things to unlock could do with some more calling cards and emblems aswell there lacking like much else in the game… Expand

    Multiplayer: The Multiplayer is in a rough spot, its not bad and plays better than MW2 on launch but as i write this there are three viable weapons and the rest are sort of just there... Not bad but just outclassed. The game plays quite well on the new engine and i love the small quality of life improvements such as editing classes in game. Cross platform is a bit buggy and you will be kicked from your group occasionally but besides that works well and is lots of fun. Gunfight is beyond amazing and i love the competitive pacing of it (please add a ranked mode to it). Minor adjustments to gun balancing would make the multiplayer much better, but all in all ive enjoyed it.

    Spec Ops: Yet to play it as i cant download the package required and at this point couldn't care about it, from what ive heard its broken and boring.

    Campaign: i had little to no faith in the campaign as i haven't enjoyed a call of duty story since i was 11. the story is cheesy at times, you have your generic falling out of helicopters and walking it off, or your cover shooting for 15 minutes. But the story does have a few exceptional moments, Clean house is a tense level and has a great pacing. the campaign is short but extremely sweet and if you can look past the generic stuff, its quite fun.

    all in all a fresh take on an old friend, id recommend it as a Christmas gift for a family member, but not something you should spend $80 CAD before taxes on. wait till it has a sale and definitely pick it up.    … Expand

    Some reflections:
    - New MW maps are not as characteristic as the old ones - they lack characteristic places, they are just unremarkeble. For example - Crash has got the wrecked heli in the center of the map; Crossfire is the characteristic street with many hideouts; Terminal or Highrise from MW2 were very oriiginal. Each map was diffrent. In MW 2019 maps are quite similar. We need differentiation and specific map constructions, not just some buildings and lanes.
    - Hardcore mode is a bit hidden in the game modes menu. It is easier to play Realism Mode, that is not better at all. Fewer people play HC mode, because it's hard to find it. I think that Realism should be more hidden and the HC rather on the top!
    - There could be the supply drops for points earned in the game - a nice incentive to collect points for which you can buy them. Something is missing. That would be really encourage.
    - Unlocking weapon accessories is too fast. It's hard to appreciate the time and effort in the game. We had to spend quite a few hours in Battlefield game to unlock another reflector sight.

    Pros:
    + Shooting mechanics are great, new animations also
    + Operators, guns, perks, killstreaks - just old good COD
    + Edgy weapon customization
    + Old COD maps - Crash and Vacant are best for now! I am waiting for more classic maps
    + Music is great! Similar to all new military movies and even John Wick soundtrack.

    I know this is just the Season One and a lot can change in the future. Personally, I'm waiting for new maps. It would be nice to see the FN2000 from MW2, some Sig Sauer weapons, HK UMP...
    it would be interesting to paint accessories - sights, suppressors, etc.    … Expand

    That's a somewhat polemic topic, but here I go: Yes, the history rewriting is hideous and should NEVER be done. It is dangerous and a menace to knowledge. Aside from this, the game is one of the best I played. Very fun to play, and jaw-dropping graphics. It id a shame such great work has this type of flaw. It is something that I hope never happens again.

    As a long time CoD player I can safely say this game is a solid 2 steps backwards when it comes to the multiplayer. The spawns are just terrible. You will be locked down to 1 area on the map while 80% of the map is completely free and open. You will find yourself more often than not dying at spawn before your character is even able to pull their weapon out to shoot back. Which consideringAs a long time CoD player I can safely say this game is a solid 2 steps backwards when it comes to the multiplayer. The spawns are just terrible. You will be locked down to 1 area on the map while 80% of the map is completely free and open. You will find yourself more often than not dying at spawn before your character is even able to pull their weapon out to shoot back. Which considering how empty the rest of the map is, is just ridiculous.

    Next problem is the size of the maps. They are far too small. Bringing back maps such as shipment and having maps like shoothouse really make me wonder if they have tested the game themselves before including it. It takes the horrible spawns that the game already has on larger maps and cranks it up to 11.

    Ground War: This mode is much like the Battlefield series Conquest mode with large maps and a domination style gameplay. But, this mode suffers terribly from lack of map variety to extremely poor servers than can not handle such "large" battles.

    Gun mounting. Camping is already a big enough problem in this game but including gun mounting has only made it all that much worse as it encourages players to mount up and sit in 1 spot while having more of themself in cover.

    The Battle Pass. This has to be the most ridiculous cash grab I have seen in a hot minute. It is a complete waste of your money and the CONSTANT push for players to use the store to buy overpriced and pointless items is just annoying and should not be included.

    There are far too many game modes too. Not counting the Coop mode which feels completely forgotten already which I know will just cause problems down the line. Having Normal and Hardcore spit is normal and makes sense and modes like 10v10. But all these other little modes are just unnecessary and split the playerbase.

    The reason I give this a 3 though instead of a 1 which i believe it deserves is the loadout system. There is a lot of variety there and bringing in systems from previous games as a perk here such as Point Streak instead of Killstreak. The graphics are excellent, controls well on both PC and console and the crossplay inclusion is a very nice one. Campaign was the best I have seen in a CoD game in years.

    But the game has too many frustrating problems that makes the overall experience not a fun one at all. I would not recommend this game at all but instead a previous title in the series Black Ops 2. It had larger maps, fixed spawns and fun gun play. A real boots on the ground experience.

    Don't buy this. It a big step back in the series in regards to it's multiplayer and I can not in any way recommend this. It is a poorly made cash grab that pushes microtransations on you constantly after already paying $90 for the base game.    … Expand

    Spec Ops is a massive step back from Modern Warfare 3. Though they have attempted to re-integrate stuff like the stars rating system the mode is still flawed. The ones in MW3 were based around the story and served a nice tight packages of action and challenge. The MW2019 spec ops is large open areas filled with enemies that just make the mode a slog to get through and will leave most players board. The only survival mode is a 15 minute long map that is known to glitch at the end. Overall Spec Ops is a major step back.

    Multiplayer is rather enjoyable. There is a lack of funnel maps and the mode has gone away from the futuristic lasers and jet packs. Recent maps like Shoothouse have shown just how good this games multiplayer can be.

    The single player is interesting from a gameplay perspective but the story is forgettable as are the characters. Whereas in something like Black Ops 2 where your choices would effect the story and not end it, here they just end the game. Open a door to the terrorists and you get a bullet in the head followed by a checkpoint reset. In Blops 2 when given the choice to shoot a friendly or the enemy your choice would effect which would live and how the story would continue. Honestly this story has no balls and it's attempts at being edgy and shocking fall flat. I found myself laughing at how try hard it was.

    Overall I find that this game is meh at best. The spec ops is a flop, multiplayer is pretty good, and the singleplayer is meh.

    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.
