Looking for the MW3 thread? You're in it! Go here for the full "skinny" Discord: https://discord.gg/na4T9YB2Ts All across the world, the seasons are changing once again. Throughout the glorious and diverse lands that we Netizens of the Northern Hemisphere call home, we watch the sun descend into half a year of darkness, and we all slowly begin to find a new sense of normalcy waft over us like a the stale breath of an uncle we were warned about. As global civilization seems to contract once again around us into yet another period of war, disease, and uncertainty, seemingly mirroring the darkness of the changing seasons, and as our world leaders disappoint us by committing sedition, invading neighboring countries, and using a pandemic they caused with their incompetence to tighten their authoritarian grip, those of us in the civilized English-speaking world can at least commiserate through the miracle of written words on the internet. So let’s all tear ourselves away from the mouldering corpse of our beloved Queen to remember that at pretty much all times during human civilization, humans thought civilization was falling apart. At least now there’s internet porn, and we don’t have our panties in a twist over loving jazz music like in the 20's. I think on the whole, it’s safe to say that the only thing really worth worrying about or being disappointed in this fall is, once again…  That's right folks. After circling all the way around the entire shitheap of a series--plus an extra game between the first and second MW games this time around, because Activision hired a third studio specifically to avoid another hilarious shitshow like Modern Warfare 2--we've come once again to Modern Warfare: Pause Button. As I say basically every year, I am completely sick of writing 1000 words of garbage every year about a game I have done no research on and usually don’t buy. It’s true that I could copy and paste last year’s thread and change one paragraph and have done more work than any individual studio does on a given Call of Duty game, kind of like it's true that “rebooting” a franchise that has been continuously released and re-released for almost 20 years carries the same gravity as a freshman college student switching his major from Business to Finance and declaring it a career change. But after a year of choking on the diarrheal hospice turd of Battlefield 2042, having suffered hypoxic brain injury holding my breath waiting for 343 to add “Match XP” to a Halo game, and three years since the last COD game anybody gave a gently caress about, I am just as chuffed as a fat kid at Sizzler’s to wrap my lips around the throbbing shaft of Modern Warfare, Again: 2, Again and eagerly await its sweet, salty release.  This year I actually did do some research, and in addition to being weirdly upset that Activision puts even less effort into marketing their lovely games than I do into writing threads, I have compiled the raw facts presented to me into an easily digestible format and have labored tirelessly to squeeze the resultant slurry of exclusive intel onto your waiting faces. The first gulp of the aforementioned Intel Slurry is that the entirety of their godawful made-for-mobile Wordpress site, which I'm assuming they contracted out to a tractor-trailer full of dead Baltic hookers, pretty much fits into a single meme:  The next, and perhaps more surprising, is that Modern Warfare 2 is projected to be twice as Modern as previous, and thus tautologically non-Modern, Warfares.  Meanwhile, either the world's most amateurish text generation AI or a communications major who hasn’t actually finished the transfer paperwork to a 4-year college promises us that Modern Warfare: Even Moderner Warfare “connects with the new Call of Duty®: WarzoneTM 2.0 experience, and with it, the evolution in Battle Royale with a brand-new play space and sandbox mode.” Whatever the gently caress that actually means. Rather than scour the internet for the pictures of a toddler making GBS threads in a sandbox that I'm sure are out there and I'm sure will get me put on various lists, I will take this opportunity to inform you all that Modern Warfare 2 2: Modern Warfare II boasts nearly 90% Modernity in its distribution of Warfare:  Finally, continuing to quote from their clown meme, we can only speculate on the meaning of “a suite of other gameplay and graphical innovations that elevate the franchise to new heights,” but the projections so far are looking extremely promising:  and they didn't say anything about character customization, but I'm using this loving image anyway:  Anyway I'm done with this poo poo, here's to hoping there's a broken Javelin, broken 1887s, a server-clearing AA12, pro-pipes everywhere, and of course, A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF CONTENT FROM DAY ONE. Buckle up nerds.

The single player stuff shown so far literally looks exactly the same as the original Modern Warfare 2. But i'll buy this game like a bitch for the multiplayer because there is literally nothing else like it.

I got bored with replaying MW2019 multiplayer (coming back to it after getting bored with blops: CW and vanguard) and am now speedrunning getting bored with BF2042 which is still pretty dire after all the updates. MW2 can't come soon enough!

I am playing on Steam, it should be playable on Steam Deck at release, I can't think of why it wouldn't be. Now that CoD is cross platform it doesn't matter anymore what platform you get the game on.

I had to sheepishly explain to my wife sitting next to me that I needed to turn off my ad blocker and open up pornhub so I could screenshot one of their pause ads and photoshop it onto the MW2 logo for that internet Call of Duty thing I do Self consciously tried to pick the most vanilla thing on the front page to open up and pause Anyway what I'm saying is I think I'm entitled to a free advance copy like the kids on YouTube

Killstreaks suck, IW pls have Treyarch’s scorestreaks system instead. It’s bullshit that the players that purposely avoid the objective to get kills are the ones rewarded with cool air support.

I don’t get the love for warzone because it’s too goddamn stressful! I need something where I respwan, having to requeue up is just annoying after getting gunned down because you went in the wrong house with a camper.
