Call of Duty Review – Modern Warfare 2

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, also known as Modern Warfare or Call of Duty 6, is a first-person shooter video game developed by Infinity Ward and published by Activision for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360. It was first announced for An official release on February 11, 2009, the game was finally released worldwide on November 10, 2009. It is the sixth game in the Call of Duty series.

It is well known for the 14 million copies it has sold worldwide (or so Activision said). In my honest opinion, Call of Duty 4 Multiplayer is better than Modern Warfare 2 for very good reasons.

First of all, there are no dedicated servers for Modern Warfare 2. That wouldn’t be a big problem if this IW Net System had worked properly because the idea was so good. But it’s not like that. Many times you disconnect, you are delayed or it is difficult for you to enter a map.

Second, you are not in control of which map is played next, who you play against, and sometimes there are only a few rounds to play. For example, in Search and Destroy, the team that wins 4 rounds wins the match. If there were more rounds to play, this system would be much better. On the other hand, it’s good because you don’t have to stay in the same lobby with players you don’t like or have insulted you and you can’t get banned from these “automated” servers. And also, other mods cannot be created for this game, such as Promod or Zombies Mod for Call of Duty 4. Out of place, in my opinion, the promod should be called noobmod. I say this because if you don’t like the perks and lots of weapons that are restricted in the so called promo mod then go and play another first person shooter that doesn’t have them.

But Modern Warfare 2 Singleplayer is a bit better than Call of Duty 4 Singleplayer. Both have very well thought out singleplayer campaigns, but I think Modern Warfare is more exciting and fictional as well. Call of Duty 4 Singleplayer is more realistic but not as exciting as Modern Warfare 2 Singleplayer.

These were the various “parallels” I did, connecting Call of Duty 4 to Modern Warfare 2 and comparing them a bit in these particular areas.

Another good thing about Modern Warfare is that you can play cooperative missions together with a friend. This co-op mode is titled Special Ops and consists of stand-alone missions similar in design to the “Mile High Club” epilogue mission from Call of Duty 4. There are many missions within this new co-op mode. These missions take place in a variety of locations in the campaign mode, but are not related to the campaign story itself.

Now, the multiplayer part, which in my opinion is the most important. Modern Warfare 2 online multiplayer works on the same system as Call of Duty 4 Multiplayer. You get the same experience points and the unlock system is the same as Call of Duty 4. The game modes are: Free For All, Search and Destroy, Demolition, Sabotage, Domination, Team Deathmatch, and Capture the Flag . In addition to new weapons, equipment, and perks that are upgraded to “pro versions” after meeting the usage requirements, the player can unlock and select 15 different killstreak rewards. Among these is the ability to receive a supply drop after achieving four kills in a row, order a Predator missile strike after five kills, and call in an AC-130 gunship to strike from the sky after 11 kills. Players can also get a Tactical Nuke if they get a 25 killstreak. The nuke will blow up the entire map and achieve victory in a match for the player or team that requested the nuke, regardless of whether the team was winning or losing at the time the nuke was requested. Another new feature is in-game host migration; if the host of a game leaves the game, the current game no longer ends (as is the case with Call of Duty 4), as a “host migration delay” allows a new host to be selected and the game to continue. continue. An optional third person mode was also added which can be used in certain types of games. (Wikipedia)

Another new thing that comes with Modern Warfare 2 is that IW Net works through Steam. This system is almost identical to the IW Net console version.

Finally, there are some new accessories in Modern Warfare 2 such as the heartbeat sensor, attached shotgun, FMJ, and tactical knife. There are also many new perks like Commando, Ninja, Cold Blooded and many more. Another good thing about Modern Warfare 2 is that you can use dual weapons. Even though some of them were and some are still heavily overpowered (kimbo shotguns were overpowered but fixed while g18 is still overpowered), this is a great thing about the multiplayer version of Modern Warfare 2.

And the last thing is that a lot of new weapons have been added as you all would expect and a lot of weapons have been removed from Call of Duty 4.
