Why Was Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 SO AWESOME?!

Modern Warfare 2 was the big turning point in the Call of Duty series for many fans. While COD 4 was unanimously acclaimed and well-received, MW2 did not enjoy the same level of praise. So what's the deal? Was this game nothing more than a product of it's time? Or is there some secret formula to the franchises success hidden away?

The things I remember the most in MW2 was always having a "nemesis" in a lobby. The guy which you (for no reason) made your rival and killing him gave that extra feeling of accomplisment. And because most lobbies would stay with almost the same players you'd keep that rivalry going, even though it was only in your own head. Also the fact that every map naturally created this "hot spot" that you'd fight over every game, and it was a different place every time.

[@SlickDangler10]

And then they added SBMM and now every player is your rival and hunting you down

[@fangsclaws9631]

yeah the spawn system was made that way so freaking all those battlefields were created in each map. All the MW2 maps where so unique and amazing gameplay and style.

[@breezyashell]

so true, when you got killed you went back for revenge and often the guy was waiting for you there for a rematch.

[@ECODKyleskymast]

That would actually be a cool idea for a COD game or something similar: a mechanic or mode where it's the usual deal, but there are designated rivals for each team, and you get bonus points for killing your rival.

it wasn't Activision who made the game, but Ifinity Ward. And if everyone just had a brief look a the credits at the end of the game, everyone would know that the creater of the original CODs and Modern Wafare series (West and Zampela) where fiered by shithead Kotick 6 weeks after MW2 realesed. Why has COD became so miserable? Here you have your answer. Why did a have 3 years of shitty jetpacks ? Because West and Zampela (and all the original devs) where fired and wanted to creat a new inovative game (Titanfall) and so shithead Kotick just had to saturate the market with a pale version of it.

[@buddy_3899]

I honestly think the EMP was probably the best part of the campaign, it felt like it hearkened back to WaW by focusing on an atmosphere and the movement and care that the soldiers have to take, rather than just being in full chaotic battles

The paradigm shifted to instead of someone owning a game, it's more like someone owns a license to play a game and that license can be revoked at any time for any reason.

No Russian is far more important to the plot given is, quite literally, the only terrorist act we SEE Makarov commit in MW2. Films have a rule that says "Show, Don't Tell." Video Games should have a rule that says "Play, Don't Tell." By putting us in the shoes of Joseph Allen, a soldier who by Shepherd's orders had to go along with the No Russian incident, we the player are placed in a scenario similar to him. We're just following orders. And thus the moment Makarov kills Allen serves as a genuinely shocking and sad moment. We think "we did all that... Just to die." Its a very powerful scene. Secondly, because its the only act of terrorism we witness, this makes Makarov a much bigger threat than if we had heard about it through dialogue and helps us become invested in the story. I could go on talking about its thematic significance within MW2 but i think this is enough to explain why this mission is important. Btw, love the videos Act Man.

You hit the nail on the head with map design. The reason MW2 never got stale to me was because every map played different. You could go from high action high pace in something like scrapyard to more drawn out slow play being a sniper in wasteland. The newer games just don't hold my attention because all the maps feel the same. I did go back and play COD4 when I was older, and it is definitely a great game, but MW2 will always be my favorite.

[@TrickerShooting]

Another aspect you touched on which is so underrated was the introduction of killcams for game (or round) winning kill. I started as a normie just grinding levels but after my first cross map no scope, i was hooked. The possibilities of what made a good killcam ranged from pure luck to 100% skill and all the trolling in between made the game perfect for montages of all sorts.

I decided to switch the nuke for an EMP instead so I can at least reach a high kill streak, I tried and failed to even reach that so I turned off the game and went to bed. The next day, My older brother played the game and hung out with his friends from school while I was gone to see a friend for the day. I back on later to open up the game again and played Team Deathmatch on Derailed. I was doing well, really well. Went from harrier strike to a chopper gunner really quick and the kills were coming in fast. Thinking to myself "Man I should be getting my EMP soon, the chopper gunner was 11 kills". But the EMP never came, and it dawned on me: My brother switched it back when he was playing with his friends. Realizing this I went hard and racked up the kills to see it through. Lo and behold the legendary sound with Ghost saying his iconic line. The match ended with 6800 to 2700. This is one of my favorite moments in gaming.
