Call of Duty has been around since the 6th generation of consoles, and since that time the franchise has spanned a variation of sub series. Since being around in the early 2000's, the franchise has now reached a reboot era. Modern Warfare is set in a more modernised realistic setting, playing as three different characters throughout the story.
For me personally I mainly play Call of Duty for the single player campaigns, but I used to play multiplayer back in Modern Warfare 2, Black Ops I and Black Ops II days.
Modern Warfare follows CIA Officer Alex, British SAS Sergeant Kyle Garrick and Rebel Farah Karim from the fictional country Urzikstan. While these are the three playable characters, you also get teamed up with SAS Captain John Price as you hunt down terrorists with dangerous chemical gas that could lead to WW3.
With variation of gameplay including using plane drones to blow up enemies/vehicles in a particular area, using a laser pointer to mark an air hit and stealth sections to sneak past were implemented well to break up the formula of only guns and grenades.
Level designs were adequate, and especially good with the design of Piccadilly, London. The sound design was immaculate, and the soundtrack was exceptionally great with another fantastic soundtrack from Sarah Schachner featuring Mike Dean on some tracks.
The story itself from the get go was boots on the ground and oh-crap-where-the-bloody-hell-is-that-shooting-coming-from! moments. With an emphasis on a more realistic setting with intense shoot outs, torture scenes and house raids using night vision goggles, it can quickly become overwhelming. For me personally what stood out to me was exploring Farah's backstory, using the laser pointer to demolish enemies and any time I had to use night vision goggles.
Overall a pretty decent game with an emphasis on more realistic settings with different perspectives of each character's position. While the game from the start wasn't slow so to speak, for me it wasn't until towards the end of the game it started to build up more, but by the time it does it ends. I personally can't wait for the sequel and where the franchise will go from here.
