Surprised no one is mentioning just how much more difficult this campaign is compared to campaigns in the past. I played on regular, and the sections with armored enemies drove me nuts!

I love the statement about the missions being "been there done that." Working with Teens I forget that they just start hopping into the story and it feels new and fresh to them which is always important.

honestly Gameranx actually does a review of the game and talks about the pros and cons unlike some other reviews hats off to you guys for that.

[SeniorBandido]

I love this campaign, each mission was unique and had some different stuff from each other. I love Alejandro and Ghost, they were so badass and the their actors performance and voice acting were on point. I really recommend this one

I loved the entire campaign, the close-quarter levels similar to ‘clear house’ have tremendous replay potential.

I think the game felt exciting for a lot including myself because they revisited older things in the franchise. There's multiple moments where you can feel them honoring the OG MW2 and revisiting it and making it better. That along with how they wrap up the game with the post credits cut scene. It has me more excited for the next installment.

I’m a big fan of Alejandro Vargas and hope he’s an operator in multiplayer! Would like to see Valeria too but that might be pushing it lol

[jgueroz]

The graphics and attention to detail was insane. Gotta give the team a big thumbs up they did an excellent job.

[GeekRaj]

This is one of the best campaigns ever. I liked it a lot. It pays homage to popular older cod missions. And every mission feels different.

Playing this game on veteran is where it truly shines. It allows you to be very wary of how much ammo you have so you have to tactically use your ammo. Almost every level has a need for methodical gameplay. Having to strategically push and peek because you can easily get one shot. Having to single fire a lot like an actual military operator for accuracy and ammo conservation was a very fun change. Try it out if you can handle it.

Recon by fire was the buggiest mission for me. The worst bug was the second time you had to go prone and let the guys pass you, they wouldn’t go back to their truck they just stood there. And then when I tried engaging them in combat they kept turning invisible so I couldn’t shoot them.

[Jean_Pierre_Wehry]

I just finished the campaign, and it was amazing. It's definitely in my top 5 of favorite COD campaigns. There were a few glitches though, like one where I wasn't able to crouch or go prone when hitting O. The dialogue is my favorite, especially between Soap and Ghost.

Man I have to say it’s really good to see the old modern warfare group again(Soap, Price, and Ghost). However I do miss shepherds original look. I still prefer the original modern warfare but I might give this new campaign a try. Thanks for the review guys! 😎👍🏼

[johnnysothersack]

The only let down was the final mission. It felt like it could’ve been way better especially with how awesome the missions that took place right before

[captshavers]

What's really interesting is that everyone that has covered this campaign has totally different opinions on what missions are great and what aren't. Jackfrags hated violence and timing and seemed to like the alone mission. Hollow on the other hand loved both. Tbh I only had a few moments I really didn't like, but overall, fantastically fun campaign with a lot of variety of experiences and it left me wanting more. (Those moments were because of bugs, where something wouldn't trigger properly)

[spidexr]

Been looking forward to this despite owning the game. Campaign was honestly amazing, coming from someone who has disliked the more recent CODs. 10/10 No doubt.

[Marveljesis]

I will admit the alone mission was really good. It was different and made the real survival feel to it. Idk how people didn't enjoy it

[RetroDaddyPH]

The campaign is freaking awesome! my favorite is the Recon By Fire, El Sin Nombre and the GOAT, "Alone" missions. Lots of homage, easter eggs, and side activities to keep the player on the edge and entertained. I also like that they humanized the main characters, particularly Ghost, through conversations where you get to choose the responses to. 9/10 for me.

[branpod]

Surprised how divisive Alone is. Honestly love the mission. It's rare for a cod stealth mission to actually have tension. This one did, at least on realism
