    0 points for NATO propaganda.

    Decent enough COD game, campaign is short and fairly enjoyable, characters are okay and some missions have variety.

    Also, the terrible decision to share things with the other recent COD files like Vanguard, Black Ops and Warzone, means that good luck figuring out which guns in your collection can be used in which game. Literally the same game will lists guns as usable in one place and not let you use them in another.

    Since there doesn't seem to be an incentive to fix these bugs seeing as some of them has been in the game from day one, it was essentially released as abandonware from day one.

    I understand that this game has a lot of content which I will give it praise for but most of the maps are too big with too many camping spots and is it just me or does the new engine feel inferior and too weird compared to the older one?

    Была обычная колда - сетевые пострелушки. А потом стала куском рекламы для Cold War. В MW2019 даже в battle pass ничего нет для самой игры - ни скинов, ни оперативников - только для Cold War.

    AAA game, AAA price with non-stop memory and dev errors! Even on the next-gen consoles.

    Get your sh*t together Activision.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Generic cliche "murica saves the day against evil russians" campaign. Story isnt that great, its just same hollywood like cliche "One man saves the day" story. Price's voice actor is not good as old actor. The other memorable characters are missing, I hope they appear in the sequel. Gameplay, graphics, animation, gun sounds and reloading animations are much improved than previous CoD installments, but it is not enough reason to give this game positive score. CoD MW 2019 is very nice example of US government funded corporate propaganda and pandering. MW2 was much better in story, it had both evil american general and evil russians.
    This game is good game if you don't remember how USA assassinated democratic leaders in south america because they tried to do something good for their nations instead of supporting US corporations. if you don't remember how US soldiers committed multiple war crimes in vietnam, iraq, libya, syria and afghanistan, and even killed their own allies and got away without any punishment (Cavalese cable car disaster, Yangju highway incident). If you don't remember how USA orchestrated 9-11 attacks and killed their own 3000 people to justify their invasion of middle east and afghanistan. If you don't remember how USA installed fascist dictatorships in South america, and installed monarchy in Iran. The truth IS USA and NATO are #1 terrorists in the world.    … Expand

    TL;DR
    This game is garbage. Don't buy.
    I bought this game when it came out, played it for a few hours and sold it. It's been a year, but someone gave me a free copy so I popped it in. This game still sucks! The multiplayer is great if you're a camper. For everyone else it's horrible. This game has the worst maps I've ever had to play in a COD game. It has bad visibility, too many lines    TL;DR

It has bad visibility, too many lines of sight, tons of doors, windows, and head-glitching spots... The skill based matchmaking makes every match extremely stressful and no one I know is having fun playing this.

    People think the campaign is anti-Russian, and it does look like that at first glance. In reality it's anti-American. Not only do most Americans not think Russians are the monsters portrayed in this game, but Activision seems to have convinced Russians that we do. This propaganda does nothing but stir hate toward the US. Too much politics in this campaign.

    Activision & IW are "woke" companies, and "woke" people love creating division between allies.    … Expand

    Campaign is great
    Multiplayer is trash ,campers are everywhere because map design are ass and gun damage is atrocious ,moving around disavantage you beacause you make so much noise that camping is the only was to not get killed everytime ,not fun at all ,maps aren't good either and it's laggy (Matchmaking is an issue too)
    Warzone ,cheaters ,campers and allies that crash the chopper in    Campaign is great

    With some (dev) work ,this could have been a great COD game ,too bad they are only lazy cash-grabbing that don't care about their fanbase ...don't buy this **** ,and don't buy cold war either ,they care about "new players/fanbase " who played fortine and has 12 years old

    The absolute worst multiply in the entire history of the franchise. The maps and spawn system are so terrible they detract from any positive aspects that might be considered to give it a better rating. IW has proven in their last three games they can no longer make a decent multiplayer shooter. Going forward, I'm skipping their games.

Multiplayer is unplayable from a competitive perspective. Spawns follow little to no logic. Enemies will spawn directly into your crosshairs multiple times a game. Holding “anchor” for spawns in a competitive match is useless now. The game just spawns players anywhere on the map. The maps are made to encourage corner campers, it is impossible to check everywhere. The game has a real problem with peaker’s advantage, and angles. When one player may be completely hidden behind a wall on their screen, half of their body will be sticking out on anothers screen. You will often die from an enemy jumping around a corner before you can even see their character. The movement feels very smooth, but the game never works the way it’s supposed to. They don’t focus on fixing any problems. Especially for xbox users, you will often feel like activision is giving xbox the middle finger. Xbox has the most issues. All in all, I wish I never wasted my time on this game. If the next COD isn’t good, i wouldn’t buy any more in the future.… Expand

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare serves up the freshest take on a stale formula in years, with a new engine and revitalised multiplayer mode that takes full advantage of a finely-tuned weapon customisation system and some welcome changes to ballistic mechanics. While Spec Ops fails to deliver much long-term attraction, the story mode proves there’s plenty of justification for a narrative element in a modern shooter. Free maps and updates bring everyone onto the same page in multiplayer, but Infinity Ward's take on the battle pass template still needs some work.

    If you don’t mind being killed by the odd nuke – how anyone can score 30 consecutive kills is beyond our tiny minds – PvP could swallow your damn life. Pair it with a gutsy (if insensitive) campaign, and this tonally conflicted series continues to stay relevant thanks to the best guns in the biz. [Issue#184, p.68]
