Some fans think Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2019 is better than Modern Warfare II

While Infinity Ward‘s rebooted game from three years ago didn’t actually receive a roaring reception from all the hardcore series lovers, it succeeded to impress majority of the players. However, it didn’t experience an iconic status compared to the games from the original Modern Warfare trilogy. Fast forward to 2022, several players are now calling it a more solid title than its sequel that came out just two months ago.

Recently, a Call of Duty player on Reddit came up with an interesting post. They mentioned that 2019’s offering was more refined than Activision’s latest blockbuster from 2022. Moreover, the user whose name on the social platform is u/Jheeezeeesud revealed several key reasons for why they think the current game is worse than its predecessor.

The user agrees that 2019’s title featured bad maps but other than that, it had a very good UI and HUD elements compared to Call of Duty Modern Warfare II. Furthermore, u/Jheezeeesud believes that using streaks in 2019’s game was better alongside good weapon handling.

Adding to that, they think the feedback of getting kills was more satisfying as well. Activating Dead Silence and overall movement mechanics were also better in Modern Warfare, according to the Redditor.
