MB#41: Late to the Call of Duty Modern Warfare party
12 years ago
General
6 years after its release, I finally completed the single player campaign of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. I really enjoyed the shift from old gear to new gear, and the tweaks to AI behaviour put the AI on level with my capabilities in Call of Duty, Call of Duty: United Offensive, and Call of Duty 2.
That, and the timed events really put the pressure on me, sometimes to the point of frustration. Nevertheless, it resulted in a suitably challenging game. I also enjoyed having characters like CPT John Price, Gaz and SSgt Griggs leading me around and building camaraderie among one another. Compared to the flat characters of the past COD games, they were more welcoming to me.
Still, the gritty aesthetic of Modern Warfare put me off, me having COD1 and COD2 dear to my heart. Also, I am very well burnt out of trigger-happy shooters now, and am going through a personal rehabilitation from sensory-overloaded action games.
Until next time.
Toodles!
