    NO SPLIT SCREEN Multiplayer for survival/ spec ops. This makes the game a waste of money.

    on ok game but the mere fact it takes so much storage and has so many huge (100gb) updates makes it unattractive to buy or play.

    This isnt even call of duty you cant rush you get punished for it because this game has some of the worst map design i have ever seen in my life i blame the community for being a bunch of **** and not actually playing the game.

To much screen shaking. Aimdown sights are to fukin slow except for pistols and smgs what would be the point of using the other guns you would be dead by then especially in hardcore. There shouldnt be kill streak only score streaks. Why killstreaks?! itsnt infinity ward trying to be more "rEaLiStIc"? This game honestly feels like a **** version of insurgency sandstorm which btw is a good fukin game has amazing coop aswell unlike this game. The fukin coop is not fun and they also locked away a few modes from the rest of the platforms unless you have a ps4...i blame sony and Infinity ward for agreeing to do this to there own community. The only good thing in this game is the audio, Gunplay, and it has crossplay. Oh ye and no paid DLC but who the **** cares about any of that when the maps they release are all loved ones form the community but transformed into some of the worst maps ever for campers to sit in. Head glitching...still a thing why the **** is this in the game i thought they were trying to be more "rEaLiStiC" with there **** ass. If these ****ing idiots were trying to make a realistic game they shouldn't have called it call of duty modern campers oh my bad i mean modern **** maps. If these **** heads were trying to make it realistic why cant we lean? we can mount but its useless in most engagements you would already be dead. Mount gives away more of your body aswell. Now BR (battle royale for you dumb asses out there) was not needed at all i tried it and it was ass you land you cant find **** or simply you cant even find a ****ing gun in most buildings and die already. Armor is too rare to find which shouldn't be rare to find at all since thats what you need to actually survive the gun fights. Gulag is the only thing i like about br cause it gives you another chance but who wants to go back just to get sniped by some bastard sitting on top of a building the whole game with the widest maps ive ever seen for a br game. Even pubg's maps add hills and **** so you cant get shot every time you move. In this game you sit on top of a roof where you can see the whole map and pick people off that cant even acquire a sniper cause they haven't reached a load out crate yet. The majority that win win with there load out (with a sniper) or by camping. Whats the point of having smgs and machine guns everywhere when people only use the snipers and an m4's...might as well just make those two the drops. This is without a doubt one of the most disappointing call of duty games ive ever played i honestly think i prefer Ghost than this one its that bad. Making things worse they wont remove Sbmm and just put a ranked mode for the stupid sweats i have to play against and again we get punished just for being good in a match and having to suffer 5 matches later. They also for some reason refuse to let use choose out maps because they know we hate like 80% of there maps which is sad. The only maps people would actually play are Shipment, Rust, Shoot house, Vacant, Hackney yard, and gun runner. They plan on adding old maps but we all know they are just going to ruin it with "sAfE sPaCeS" and head glitching for those campers out there. Theres nothing more to talk about other than the campaign was alright but kind of made Russians look bad but in the end of the day its just a game so people should stop getting butt hurt over that. And start caring about Infinity ward just wants our money again. They put out more gun skins and characters skins than actual content per season.… Expand

    Probably one of the worst games ever. Period. Thick SBMM, campers galore, awful connections, absolute worst maps, uninteresting guns, **** camos (i mean has anyone even seen the obsidian camo wtf...) and the most useless devs who dont test their game or give a **** about COD veterans and just want to spoonfeed the noobs.

    This game literally almost gets worse with every single update is over 100 gb and counting. This game alone has taken up my almost my entire storage. This wouldn’t be a huge problem if I could actually play in one of their **** servers half of the time. I have yet to talk to a person who doesn’t constantly have problems with this game. It’s absolutely ridiculous. Figure it out.

    The only setting that fixed this was increasing resolution scale, but come on dude, i can't even hit 50FPS with scaling at %200. I would prefer it having BO2 graphics (wich are pretty nice, no visual bugs and the performance is great) with SS-AO and some Post Processing instead of being unplayable because of the world looking completely glitched.

    And the only Aliasing options are SM-AA wich... is not perfect.

    I mean im not saying that having bad graphics make the game bad but this kind of bugged graphics is generating a visual fatigue that makes the game completely unplayable unless you are a frickin' masochist.

    Textures aren't compressed too which causes the dynamic texture system to make textures look like play-doh sometimes.

    The game just gives the impression that it was made in a crappy engine like unreal engine. The downgrade on the COD game engine just got this low to be unplayable and buggy graphically.    … Expand

    Gameplay is generally pretty good. But the game is plagued by regular, over-sized patches. To add insult to injury, the patching servers have been faulty for weeks (Meaning if you do get to download the patch, it is incredibly slow). And there seems to be no sign of these servers being repaired anytime soon. Good game / Bad infrastructure and support. I'd give it a miss.

    If a game comes with a day-one patch of 99+ GB then it's not worth purchasing since your buying nothing but a cd-key, not taking into account the uninterrupted steam of weekly 15 to 20 GB patches, and for what? The game consists in literally 6 tiny maps, the muppets you move and a very limited arsenal of weapons, where the frick do 99 GB of patch come from!?

    Plus, it's 6 months past    If a game comes with a day-one patch of 99+ GB then it's not worth purchasing since your buying nothing but a cd-key, not taking into account the uninterrupted steam of weekly 15 to 20 GB patches, and for what?

    Plus, it's 6 months past release and they have yet to address the spawn camping issue, making in closer to a get-beaten-in-the-prison-showers simulator than an actual FPS, but fear you not new crappy skins will roll into the cash shop as fast as possible!

    This game is garbage, I've spent more time downloading patches than actually playing it, and guess what? Waiting for the patches was the best part.

    Thanks Jesus I've got it for 20€ from Gamestop, 10/10 I'd wait for a 99GB day-one patch again.    … Expand

    6 month update ---- Updates, updates, updates and more updates. What is going on over at IF?? Why the absurd amount of updates? Every time I log in, theres an update that requires a restart... Why cant the game update automatically overnight like all the rest of the games I have installed?? This is absolutely ridiculous. They need to fix the update delivery system asap. Its appalling and6 month update ---- Updates, updates, updates and more updates. What is going on over at IF?? Why the absurd amount of updates? Every time I log in, theres an update that requires a restart... Why cant the game update automatically overnight like all the rest of the games I have installed?? This is absolutely ridiculous. They need to fix the update delivery system asap. Its appalling and embarrassing considering other online games manage updates 10x better.

    Aside from the absurd amount of updates, what happened to the leveling system? Why cant we prestige like previous games and receive a new badass prestige rank icon to showoff?? There was NOTHING wrong with that system! It gave us. sense of accomplishment. i felt like a badass when I finally reached prestige 8,9,10 so on and so forth. There is no sense of accomplishment if you reach 150 and get dropped to 50 after the season is over or even worse, drop to level 1 because of the stupid leveling glitch that they still havent fixed. It discourages you from playing!!!

    Speaking of seasons and battle passes.... This whole battle pass thing is the worst thing to grace this industry. Its grotesque, unnecessary, and down right scummy. Its because of this battle pass that leveling your rank is a complete crap shoot. All this to please the publishing gods and satisfy their greedy pockets. Its disgusting the amount of money Activision makes and still have the audacity to ask for more.

    Ways to improve the game:
    1. Deliver updates behind the scenes aka overnight.
    2. Bring back the prestiging leveling system.
    3. If you are going to have a battle pass, do not let the leveling rank suffer. Bring back prestiging as an independent leveling system for those that do not want to buy/participate in the battle pass and an independent leveling system exclusive for battle pass members. Gameplay accomplishments and experience will apply to either player prestige or both systems depending if the player purchased the battle pass.

    There, I fixed three glaring issues with this game and it only took me several minutes. Will it happen? Absolutely not but I needed a place to rant and let my frustrations out.

    Other those things, the campaign is very good. The cinematic cutscenes are so well done and the characters are so incredible lifelike. The team really nailed the core atmosphere of Modern Warfare and really pushed it to the limits. Game play is solid also. The shooting mechanics have always been incredible and this game is no exception. Spec ops on the other hand is incredible lack luster. There arent that many missions and the ones available are boring and leave a lot to be desired. After experiencing the Campaign, you would expect the same level of story telling and action but you dont get any of that in Spec Ops. This is a playlist that can be removed and most the players wouldnt care.

    Thats it for my review. i give this game a generous 6/10.    … Expand

Multiplayer iswhat people actually wanted in the new MW: MW2 Multiplayer remastered minus exploits like one man army infinite grenade launcher ammo and a solid, dark and gritty story line with great twists that set up amazing set pieces and narratives. What they actually got: glitches, crashes and evil Russians in a criminally short campaign that doesn't even form a cohesive story. Multiplayer is painful thanks to skill based matchmaking and the devs constantly lying their product. They claimed there would be no skill based matchmaking in Warzone, however players on YouTube have shown with their data that there is no doubt SBMM is in everything. Regardless of your opinion on SBMM, nobody should tolerate being sold a false bill of goods. SBMM is inferior to connection based simply by not providing you with the best connection possible. No further analysis needed. Nobody wants to be playing competitively in 2020 with 60/70+ ms ping. Games from 10+ years ago provided a smoother online experience. The final nail in the coffin for this title is the PC cheaters in Warzone. There appears to literally be no anti cheat in the game. Console players are disabling crossplay, defeating the entire purpose of it existing, and nobody can blame them. This MW should have be been a title for the ages but we were met with straight up lies about the game and a sub par experience.

    FYI Activision has a patent for MTX based matchmaking, that is to say, players who spend money in the game store will be rewarded by being placed in matches with players far below their own skill level. Players who do not pay this literal bribe to have "fun" are punished and used as fodder for the players who do spend money.

    In summary the game has no anti cheat, possible MTX based matchmaking, definite SBMM, mediocre at best story, glitches aplenty, and still has the nerve to harass you with buying gimmicky junk from the store with glorified pop-ups from the 90s on a full price AAA title.

    If players tolerate this behavior, they will have no one to blame besides themselves for future titles. We need to stop submitting to this and start voicing our opinions with our wallets by refusing to pay for this junk.

    This game exists for the sole purpose of squeezing as much money out of gullible players who throw money at shiny cosmetics and swindling players with lies about the games mechanics.    … Expand

Your footsteps are very loud to the point that enemies can hear you from far away and there is no proper perk to make your footsteps quieter. Also there is a perk called restock which makes your lethals regenerate after 30 seconds which causes a lot of players to camp with shotguns and claymores endlessly. The Spawn Locations are awful. The Special Ops is very generic and forgettable. Oh and lastly the campaign is okay I guess but it fails to surpass the previous modern warfare games.

Headglitches, safe spaces, doors, corners and recharging claymores are only some of the annoying mechanics in this game. And on top of that the sbmm ruins the already limited fun for old-school cod players or any casual player that just wants to run and gun like in the old days. On a certain skill lvl, every round plays exactly the same. Nobody moving, everybody camping. Especially in free for fall, most of the games end with the timelemit, the final score at the end being 10-15 out of 30 needed kills for victory (after 10mins)..
    No real perk or weapon variety, overloaded and badly designed maps that only benefit a slow and defensive play style as well as hackers occurring every 3-4 rounds in certain game modes only 6 months after release.
    In total even though the devs and publishers wanted to attract battlefield or rainbow six players, this game designed by the new IW mostly feels like an even worse Update of Cod Ghosts with Captain Price of Modern warfare of the original IW on the cover.
    Overall a total disappointment, only positives imo are graphics and sound (when it's not bugging)    … Expand

    Lo negativo de este juego es lo ABSURDO y RIDÍCULO que es el almacenamiento que tiene el juego (176GB), también, para agregar, es que el juego viene separado del multijugador y de los Spec Ops, en que sentido, tienes que descargar por un lado la campaña, por otro lado el multijugador y, por último, los Spec Ops.
    Los parches que recibe el juego también son exagerados (van desde los 4 hasta los 12GB), para poner un ejemplo, MGSV: Definitive Experience (abarca tanto Metal Gear Solid V como Ground Zeroes) salió en 2016 y hasta el día de hoy tuvo unas 4 actualizaciones de 100MB, por lo que el juego base más las actualizaciones pesan 40GB. Modern Warfare, con tan solo 3 temporadas, pesa 70GB.
    Pero bueno, para hacer un reinicio de la saga, van por buen camino, pero me encantaría ver a futuro una disminución ENORME tanto de las actualizaciones como el juego en sí    … 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.
