    - the game looks good
    - the campaign has some intensely captivating moments.

    other than that though, this is probably the worst CoD I have ever played in my life. The biggest issue is mainly that the game doesn't feel or play like a CoD game at all and I feel really robbed when the game was supposed to "go back to the roots of what made CoD a massive success" and it turned out like this. The game certainly doesn't captivate the arcadey fun feeling of say MW2, and it actually reminds me more of something like Rainbow Six Siege, combined with Insurgency and a little bit of Battlefield. Which is far away from the expectations I had when purchasing a CoD game. At the end of the day, if you think you'd like such a combination of FPS's, then, by all means, buy this game and you'll probably have a blast. However, if you're actually looking for a CoD game then I suggest that you wait until the next one is released.    … Expand

    it is sad when the game turns from an alternative story into an instrument of political pressure. I do not recommend this game because encouraging such pressure will lead games to manipulation tools

    The Russian people eat children in Urzikstan everyday.How much did the State Department pay Activision? ?Я из России и горжусь что мой народ не клюёт на такую шляпу, и в других государствах это тоже прекрасно понимают.Мне нравились серии CoD но теперь уж точно больше не куплю,спасибо.The Russian people eat children in Urzikstan everyday.How much did the State Department pay Activision? ?Я из России и горжусь что мой народ не клюёт на такую шляпу, и в других государствах это тоже прекрасно понимают.Мне нравились серии CoD но теперь уж точно больше не куплю,спасибо.

    Mandatory update before you can play, even single player campaign is locked. No highspeed internet means no play. Rural area? Forget it. BS Activision! Score is 1 because from what I've seen the game is good, now if I could just play for what I payed.

    Lack of content and terrible multiplayermaps, lootboxes that will come after the reviews are in, makes this a no go. Singleplayer is not too bad though.

    The multiplayer maps are all god awful camp fests. Too many angles and dark corners you will never know where you got shot from until you are already dead. The single player has been (((diversified))) featuring black and brown SAS troops as well as a black female general. Spec ops is fun but very hard with randoms. Its the only good thing about this game.

    I am not Russian, but I agree with this opinion. This is so hypocrisy, Russia is not perfect, but compared to the United States they are just saints. Look at your history, racism, segregation, slavery, the genocides of entire nations, the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the invasion of Arab countries with permanent civilian casualties and rapes. Do you have any criticism for yourself?I am not Russian, but I agree with this opinion. This is so hypocrisy, Russia is not perfect, but compared to the United States they are just saints.

Do you have any criticism for yourself? You said in an interview that there will be no black and white in the game. Look, for example, at the game Spec Ops The Line, they were perfectly able to show a gray morality, or the film Apocalypse Now, what was the problem in doing the same? I didn’t think your screenwriters are so dumb or his brain is washed. When you offend a single feminist or gay you have a scandal, but when you offend an entire nation, everything is fine. These are double standards. With this attitude, you spoil your reputation, people have a reciprocal aversion to the United States and its pop culture… 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.

    Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is a mixed bag. A fantastic returning campaign, some decent multiplayer and terrible co-op makes MW an interesting entry.

    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]
