Hey everyone, don't know if there's any OG members of this subreddit from back when MW19 launched, but I used to make funny trolling videos using the underbarrel stun and flash launchers. The Gunsmith in '19 was the most raw, ambitious shit I had ever seen. It's still probably my favorite gunsmith for any game I've played.

I remember playing MW2 (2022) at launch and I was really upset. They had completely eliminated all of the fun movement tech that I loved so much in MW19. No bunny hopping, no slide canceling, no drop shotting. Visual smoke and noise while shooting, so much that I was losing gunfights because I was on PC and I couldn't sticky-reticle through the goddamn visual clutter.

I know people talked a lot of shit about MW3 but I thought it was significantly better than MW2. They reverted the movement changes and increased the time to kill so you could outmaneuver and turn on people if they catch you by surprise. I do not play Call of Duty campaigns so I was extremely pleased with MW3 multiplayer experience. The downside of the multiplayer experience was not having brand new maps. Having all the original MW2 maps was a pretty fun experience regardless because they're great maps.

And then all of the Black Ops games came one after the other. I only play those games for zombies. In general I don't like the cartoonish, stylized art design of the treyarch/black ops franchise. I've always preferred the modern, gritty Infinity Ward art design.

But now MW4 approaches. Will it be a return to form? I don't know. If it can capture the magic of MW19 for me, that would be swell.

Alright so I’m someone who often uses the same three classes with a little bit of a different different one every now and again in my primary or secondary, but now I’m looking for new things to try besides my usual M4 and MP5 or MP7 builds, and that could range from a dragons breath doof doof, to a completely cracked put of its mind movement M4 or MP5.

My Game Pass is going to be expiring soon at the time of making this so a good chunk of my gameplay will be in private matches against bots, but that also just gives you a chance to tell me which maps said weapon build is best for. I’ll be waiting for your responses and I am interested to see what you give me.

Okay, so I don't know how localized online multiplayer servers are, or if they're regional or national or if they pull from a global server but I swear the amount of people playing has to be lower than you'd think. I don't want to use gamertags for XBOX if that's discouraged here but I've played with so many people over and over, like running into the same players 3 times a day seems unlikely, but it happens constantly.

If we ARE allowed to list gamertags, there are a few players I'd like to shout out 1. Because they were great opponents or teammates and 2. Because I'm trash and they should know at my age that's not likely to change by much, lol.

EDIT: From the sounds of it (based on one reply, lol), we can post tags here, so shout-out to Glockoma, rjn34/jnr34 (a dyslexic's nightmare), Jai, and whoever the two players are that are always wearing either Leatherface skins or Jigsaw. I'll come back and update this later today. If you see a couple [CREEP]s in-game, that would be my wife and me.

As the title suggests, I've been meaning to get back into Modern Warfare 2019. I really miss the time when this game got released, it was a breath of fresh air. Definitely going to replay the campaign but I was wondering how the lobbies are.

How's the cheating situation? (I've heard people encounter some from time to time)

And are there alot of online players still hopping into multiplayer?

Edit: I'm on PC. Got the game through battlenet in 2019

Mods pls don’t delete 😭 it’s impossible to find lobbies for this mode, even in the discord, but I’ve been seeing it mentioned here which gives me hope 🎮
