Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare®

The Best COD MW So far for me

Still easily the best cod in the last 7 years, nothing has come close. Later games made it worse to see anything you're shooting at with either too many on screen effects, camera shaking, or your own a visual recoil and muzzle flash. The movement is just right in this game, faster than older cods, but not like unreal tournament. Weapon balancing was never perfect, but you can still doo well with most of the guns in this game. I will say I don't necessarily favor Gunsmith as much as I'd like. I enjoy building the guns I want with the parts they give me, but I feel like it adds more challenge to balance anything OR it produces a community that analyzes every stat with a microscope. It becomes a weird situation of more variety actually equaling fewer options because people will gravitate to what's meta. With the resurgence of BO and BO2 on PS5, it kinda proves that more is less and less is more in this respect. Campaign is great, spec ops can be ignored, and still my favorite MP of the xbox series/ps5 generation cod games. Sunk plenty of hours into this game and I still revisit it, even with how broken it was left by the developers because it just feels that good to play anyway. P.S.: this game and Cold War are easily the last two games where the Aim Assist isn't the strongest 'the game will play for you' crap that you see today in later titles, so mouse and keyboard players rejoice.
