    Call of duty as it meant to be. Boots to the ground and modern day weaponry is what community asked for the last years and now we have it. One of the best shooters I have ever played and believe me I have played a lot.

    These 0 reviews and their quotes and reasoning make me want to play this game that much more. My favorite quote thus far is the one where a guy complains about how mean the game is to Russia and then says it's likely to be censored by the government there. Gold. Something tells me the next season of Jack Ryan won't be a fave here either. I love Russians.... Artemi Panarin!

    Best COD in years!!! MP is awesome, with a lot of options, crossplay and no paid DLC!!! Campaign and coop modes are excellent too!! This is the COD game the community was hoping for!!! Congrats Infinity Ward!!!

    OK clearly everyone is upset about Russians labelled as the bad guys. Fair enough sensitive people.
    I grew up with COD and started to play since COD 2. The franchise became too repetitive so I took a break for a few years right after COD Ghosts. Key points for me and observations made since COD Ghosts:
    - the single campaign is absolutely great. One of the best I’ve ever played in my life.

    - the single campaign is absolutely great. One of the best I’ve ever played in my life. Yes a lot of people are morally upset but that’s how society is turning into. Soon you won’t be able to fart freely without offending anyone
    - the MP has - imo- greatly changed. It’s not the COD I used to know (spray and pray, SMG running, dual G18 spray), it feels more tactical, slightly slower pace which allows you to plan and think! You can now revive team mates which is interesting

    Anyways! It’s good to be back after a few years! The game is great!

    Game is very nice. Constant updates. Added warzone which is currently imo the best battle royale game mode to date. Very nice skins and operatives that give no competitive advantage.

    I see the Russian bots have reached Metacritic too nowadays. Saying that the games is "russophobic" is ridiculous. In the game you work together with Russian agents against the evil Russian general! Also, the Americans are portrayed negatively several times in the game, including dishonorably abandoning their allies (just like real life). What are you all talking about?

    First of all the campaign is amazing, so hats off to IW for pulling this off! Second, the multiplayer is awesome. It brings back the great times I had with the original MW trilogie. This is what we needed! And finally spec ops is back! Always fun to play with my friends!

    Forgot to mention something important! NO lootbox anymore!

    Don't listen to all the whiney reviews the game is solid. Great return to modern war operations free from idiotic wall running and jet pack jumps. A welcome update to the series. The online multiplayer is tight and fun af

    Giving this a 10 in order to counter the Russian spam accounts flooding this with 0's and 1's. They're interfering with the game's score like how they interfered with the U.S. election. сука блять!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Fantastic game! specially the campaign, hands down the best campaign! Multiplayer is great also, however it will need some balancing.
    Everyone else review bombing this game for its Russia narrative seem to not have played the old MW games. cry babies.

    Hands down, the best COD since MW2. Everything about the game has been reimagined to be incredibly pro-player. The gunplay is sublime, graphics are best in series, maps are intricate and fun, all play styles are catered for, some actual depth to the game for the first time in a long time.

    Отличная игра, кремлеботы пытаются обрушить рейтинг игры. В этой игре хороший сюжет, да один полковник поехал головой и все. А вообще там отличная стрельба, отличная графика, в мультиплеер появилась техника как в батлфилд, все очень круто. Я бы ещё в режим большой войны добавил разрушаемость.!Отличная игра, кремлеботы пытаются обрушить рейтинг игры. В этой игре хороший сюжет, да один полковник поехал головой и все.

    This is an excellent COD after a string of hits and misses. Not sure why there are so many complaints about Russians being the villains. COD has always taken on dictatorships, and unfortunately the country is still being lead by one of the worst dictators this world has ever known. Solid game with great multiplayer.

    Perfect FPS everyone has been waiting for! Great graphics, gameplay and single player campaign. This game depicts the horror of war excellently; especially the part when you play as young girl trying to escape from russian soldiers. I have played 10 hours, and still have a lot to do in this game. Great buy!

    Wow! Just played a few hours with friends and it's amazing! There's not much to complain about - spawn kills are still a thing from time to time but I guess they'll get rid of this in that title. Finally, cross-platform is available. Love it!

    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.
