Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (German) (computer game)

Customer Review

The Call of Duty series is one of the best-selling games worldwide, but the delivered quality is far behind other genre-colleagues.
Nevertheless, I have been playing the from the CoD players most praised and described as the "Best CoD" Modern Warfare 2 and would like to express my opinion about the class leader of the CoD series, and also explain why the quality so far other games lagging behind.

One should still know that Batman is only playable using a Steam account and everyone must clarify for themselves whether they want this.

But let's start with the art:
The graph from MW2 is ok, the game is 2009 and for the time it goes perfectly fine ... unless you look closely. Especially when you lying in the grass, you can see a large patch graphics mud. Even textures and objects sometimes appear detailed and polygonarm. Also, I often feel that textures pixelated effect despite the highest graphics settings and AA (eg treetops, cars). The weapons, however, look really good, as is the lighting. The explosions look massive and go for the time alright. The Maps view graphically quite good, but the background is out of focus unnatural. All this obscures the overall impression of the graphics, especially if you MW2 with Battlefield Bad Company 2, which was released a 4 months later, compares. On the positive side emphasized that the hardware requirements are low and thus the game also runs on betagteren machines. However, MW2 never felt so right to liquid, also friends with high-end PCs complain, but it's not as bad as it is vllt. reads.
The multiplayer works via matchmaking, which of course leads that you can not play on the map, where you want and if you're unlucky, you have to wait forever, until a game start time. In addition comes the countdown, a player should leave the lobby before starting the game, again starts from the front, which often gets out of hand to unnecessary waiting. Equally annoying is the frequent change of host, which can interrupt the running game. One would think that this still leads to a laggfreiem games ... which unfortunately is not the case. Mostly the game is unplayable because the Laggs are so large that even if one does not touch the keyboard and mouse, the own figure still jumps back and forth. The game noticed these delays unfortunately very late, so leaving the game is usually the best option. In addition, it is annoying when you leave a running play, possibly because one does not appeal to the Map or a hacker playing there, you will be thrown back immediately in the same game with a new game search. In the long run that's right annoying.

Let. To hit boxes, which are actually very important in a first-person shooter Since I have experienced it myself that even if I have half a meter over the head with a sniper rifle targeted, could kill the enemy. Also, I feel that the hit boxes the figures 'join' that is, when an enemy moves and I'll shoot through bad goals always behind his character, I can kill him due to poor hitboxes yet.

Therefore only 1/5 points

Let's talk about that with which Batman actually most recruits, the campaign:
This is unfortunately quite short, you should plan for approximately 6 hours. But one experiences a pretty good story of this genre, but logic errors are noted from time to time. The locations are varied, but mostly linear and script events unfortunately are many available. Playful freedom one must not expect so. Even many of the exaggerated American patriotism might nerve.
Thus I conclude from the campaign because most play CoD yes because of the multiplayer part of the campaign, there is therefore 2/5 points.

And now the most important thing in the end, the multiplayer:

This is characterized by a fast run and gun gameplay of which does not run a team and no tactic requires.
The biggest drawback to the MP, the unbalanced weapons, which are at a disadvantage, especially newcomers and Niedriglevler. Only with higher levels on one freely better weapons. If you play for longer with a weapon, one switch for these upgrades free. Nevertheless, many weapons are too strong, such as G18 Akimbo, ACR, grenade launcher. In addition to this, the level design invites to camp and are thus also to be found frequently campers, as well as tuber or Quickscoper. Even that would not actually occur in a good game (that is why the M320 in Battlefield 3 also so weak as not to damage the balance).
If you switch from multiple enemies consecutively without dying yourself, you will unlock called Killstreaks. These are, for example, reconnaissance or attack drones, helicopter gunships, artillery automatic or even a nuclear bomb. Killstreaks require no playful ability because opponents are framed in a red box leutendem, and you only need to keep it. The problem is that many maps are very open, and also buildings are covered from the top with glass, which means that you can easily can gather a lot of kills and you as a player in part has no chance. In addition, some kill streaks as AC-130 or Apache gunships species to pure Spawnkilling what frustrated quickly. Spawnkilling is also such a thing, you have to live with, especially in the game mode demolition squad often. But even in normal games you often spawn right in front or behind enemy players. The Spawnsystem is therefore totally inconsiderate and resembles that of a low-Free2Play title. Add to that the fact that the community of Cod is very modfreudig and one often ends up servers running either: - one is himself cheated on the maximum level, - the Modder Kill farms operates because it is untötbar for other players or, and this is actually quite nice, one other game modes through the mods get to know how a zombie hunting or "Only Sniper reduced gravity".
Speaking of cheaters and hackers, they are, unfortunately, very often encountered, and one wonders if the game ever has a cheat protection, or even the developer cheats and hacks sell because I was confronted in any game with so many cheaters like in MW2. However, these are very easy to identify thanks Killcam and generally I find the Killcam very well here, and I have, however, also means that this is happening only calculated and not really records and plays back the scene.
As a character you will also often depend due to poor programming anywhere and MW2 does not so "smooth" because the movements of the figure seem rather limited, but this is due to the fact that the game is older, because Bad Company 2 also suffers including , If you play but then again Battlefield 3, the feel is much more comfortable. Overall, I find the multiplayer for a few rounds of really good, because the fast run and gun gameplay is pretty fun, but these plagues just too many other problems. In addition, there appears to be no more support for this game, because the issues have existed forever, was also the Map "favela", which I really liked, just taken out times, which I find quite rude of Activision / Infinity Ward.

So again only 1/5 points.

For the described reasons, I can MW2 awarded only 1 star because this makes so many mistakes, despite huge budget as AAA titles. Too bad, because other games are much more advanced. In addition, the word "innovation" in CoD is not known, even Black Ops 2 could I play and was very disappointed that has changed very little since MW2, despite 4 years difference. In particular, the campaign was a disaster, every few minutes, logic error. Even Ghosts seem to follow. This is most apparent from the fact that it sells the fish as KI Innovation, realized that had only Mario 64, which was released in 1996 -.- In general there are many videos that make fun of the new Cod because one wonders then, so have a success as a gamer, how can such a bad game. That is why I was really the most acclaimed game of this series, so played MW2 to form my own opinion and that was the result ...
