Goated Multiplayer
Insane communication from SHG (and Treyarch)
Disastrous campaign

Campaign is nice
Weapon tuning / new gun system is nice

***However, since there is forced Crossplay enabled and the game is heavily catered towards controller players, I recommend you to NOT buy & play the game if your are on MnK (mouse and keyboard). It's not fun.

Any kind of skill gap is now absolutely destroyed (i have never slide cancelled once in my life nor i am a WZ player if you are going to talk about it) And i will be giving sources for the aimassist problem at the end of the review, Please check it.

The absurd visual recoil + weapon recoil in the game puts you into HUGE and *UNFAIR disadvantage against controller players as the aimassist is BARELY affected by it. Controller aimassist auto-compensates for the heavy recoil, which is something you have to do manually if you are playing with a mice, but the problem is when you compare MW19 recoil to MW2, MW2 weapon recoil has very rough kicks - *RNG horizontal spread and scope sway. Now even though you can control it to some degree, its just impossible to control both vertical+*RNG horizontal recoil at the same time unless your brain works at lightspeed — or you are playing on a controller. Aimassist also works perfectly fine when you are stunned etc.
But thats not the only problem.

Most lobbies are like %70 controller players %30 MnK/PC players. Controller players tend to wait at certain spots (camping) silently for the whole game a lot, and as there is no more any skill moves whatsoever to counter that and they have the unfair aimassist advantage, its very hard to win any gunfights over mid-long range. If you are playing on MnK(PC) you will unfortunately get beamed the whole game. And no, this is not a skill issue, its just unfair lol

And the new perk system also prevents you from having access to ghost/quick fix perks.

Here are some channels/videos/sources to see how unfair the aimassist in COD;

''Welcome to old cod''
No, All the old CoDs had movement mechanics, bounces, strafing etc. Plus they had very unbalanced guns etc. It was WAY easier in old CoDs to dominate as a high skilled player

''You are mad you can't slide cancel''
I dont know how to slide cancel, never learned & never used it
.
''Aimassist is not OP''
You are objectively wrong, simply check the videos/sources i've posted.

I am leaving a negative review for now however i am assuming and HOPING there will be balanced adjustments to the game in couple weeks to turn my review into a positive one because core MW2019 game and its mechanics are simply great and always have potential to be better.

As for why i am leaving a negative review:

First of all CoD is not a realism nor a simulation game, it never was. Its an ARCADE shooter. If you are into simulation or realism games, there are a lot of options out there to choose (Squad - ArmA - Hell Let Loose etc.) MW2019 had great soft-realism elements to it which didnt affect the gameplay and gunpaly in a bad way at all.

Even though i don't like nor use that play style myself, i understand the frustration with slide-cancelling and ''movement sweats''. They are annoying for sure because that is naturally harder to hit & kill than a standing still target.

HOWEVER this frustration and hate towards ''movement sweats'' doesn't justify all this unnecessary and quite ironically, unrealistic visual recoil and muzzle smoke. All the currently existing visual recoil and muzzle effects (smokes etc.) are simply even more UNREALISTIC. The more you remove certain mechanics from the game, the more you start favouring ADSing in a corner or straight up camping with the HIGHEST TTK weapons.

Instead of completely altering the recoil system and the game itself just because some 40yo dude cried about slide-cancelling, IW should start making more balanced and reasonable changes.

Again, i am not saying there shouldnt be changes, i am saying those changes should not turn the game into an abomination where you need to check EVERY single corner because there could be a 40yo dude standing anywhere with his high TTK LMG ADS'ing at some certain doorway meanwhile tweeting whining about sprinting still being a thing in the game. You get the idea

This game is quite literally one of the worst games i've ever played in my life. Battlefield is now dead but not because it has changed, but because devs are incapable of making something new properly. The amounts of features that are missing from the game is nowhere near acceptable. Portal is not what you expect it is, you can't create or find proper servers because guess what: the game is broken.

Please check this link & go watch some videos and reviews about the game before buying it. (please dont)
