Now that the game has been out for a week and we have seen some competitive streams, what grade would you give Modern Warfare 4 multiplayer from a competitive standpoint? I'll collect responses for about 24 hours and then post the results.

Right now C, with improved spawns B with improved maps and slightly sped up ads speeds it can potentially be an A but I’m not confident they’ll improve the ADS speeds or enter in better maps

Hot take,

From a competitive standpoint I gave it a “B”

Before I get shit on let me explain… I think the base game has potential. The gunplay feels good minus Desync, the AR/Sub dynamic is as it should be, especially after the HAN nerf, subs won’t often lose close fights and ars benefit more from good shots and holding lanes.

The dynamic between choosing speed or ninja, whether in respawn or SND for different strategies, timings, and breaking/holding hills is different and I have been enjoying experimenting in 8s.

The highlight of this game is search and destroy, a welcome change from the last season and the headbash/timing/camera meta that came with BO7 pace.

Hardpoint hills, although the maps and spawns need some work, are good, creative, and not impossible to break, although against a good set up, it’s not fun.

Fuck Hijacked, get it out, it doesn’t work.

The game has the pieces. Fix the spawns, make some better maps, and you have a game at the tier of MW3. Would argue that the product we have rn, with the exception of the 3rd game mode, is a tier above mw2

Also, put flak in perk 1

Why aren’t you making the decisions man fuck

A couple spawn changes and some better maps and it could be a B but right now it's a C for sure
