MODERN WARFARE 2022 CAMPAIGN THREAD

RELEASE INFO

GENERAL INFO
- Completing the Campaign will unlock quite a few things for the multiplayer including Operators, XP Tokens, and Calling Cards.
- Between 15 and 20 Missions (calling card rewards would indicate 17)
- High impact testosterone-driven gaming that will test every fiber of your skills.
- No Coop. Instead Coop will have its own separate Spec Ops missions that will be canon to the story, just like MW 2019.
- Includes a Realism/Veteran maximum difficulty for replays or if you want to truly test yourself the first time.

CHARACTERS

KATE LASWELL - A CIA officer hellbent on protecting the current world order. Last seen as a key player in the Roman Barkov incident, she once again joins Price to permanently stop Russian ultranationalists, Middle Eastern terrorists, & Latin American drug cartels.

COLONEL ALEJANDRO VARGAS - A brand new character not seen in the original MW2, Alejandro is part of the Mexican military. He will assist Price in navigating the complex Latin American geopolitical situation. The question is, is he secretly being paid by the cartels?

PHILLIP GRAVES - Task Force 141 is not the only squad given rein to complete missions with little oversight. Phillip leads the mysterious Shadow Company which, if you played the original 2009 MW2, should mean something to you. As this is a brand new adaptation of the story, he might be trustworthy this time.

CAPTAIN PRICE - The longtime series hero returns as leader of Task Force 141. His resolve is strengthened by his three Nakama comprised of FNG Soap, Kyle "Gaz" Garrick, and Ghost-kun. It is unknown if Farah will fully join the squad but the trailer indicates she will appear in this arc. It can't be helped.

The raid mode sounds amazing. Can't wait to try it.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Fantastic, genuinely looking forward to this game, will probably finish no more heroes 3 up first

I know my other half with be super happy to know she can play in 3 hours.

& Nice work OP

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

Worth a watch (while we wait) if you haven't been following, stuff in here new to me

Though mostly about MP in here

 

[Ghost of Caelid]

Too many games, need to finish Plauge Tales, Persona 5 just dropped, still on Overwatch 2 often, now this is dropping, then we got GOW coming and Pentiment. First world problems hitting hard this fall.

 

[Cyborg]

Is this the same story as on PS3 or is it completely new?

New

 

[Putonahappyface]

After watching a few YouTube video's I'm a little disappointed in the lackluster physics and graphics jump. I won't pay £60-70 for a cross gen game so I'll probably wait until a sale or leave it altogether.

Shepherd actor seems to always land on military roles.

 

[Represent.]

If I buy this digitally today will I unlock the campaign early?

I thinks so.

 

[Northeastmonk]

I feel like the preload took more time than most games. Over 100 GB without Warzone 2 and Co-op.

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

If you order it through the online stores yes but not through a brick and mortar store from what I understand

 

[nikos]

Excited to start this campaign in a couple of hours. Have a feeling it's going to be a good one!

I'm skipping MW2, don't give a shit about the campaign and the multiplayer beta was a dud.

I'm a Warzone player first so thankfully that's free. I wish the weapon camo unlocks had their own challenges just for Warzone players instead of multiplayer based challenges but at the end of the day, I really couldn't care less about weapon camos or operator skins since that's not why I play this game. All I want for Warzone 2 is a RANKED PLAYLIST and I'll be more than happy. I'm taking that $69.99 and putting it towards God of War: Ragnarök.

 

[EverydayBeast]

I appreciate campaigns, there’s a lot of people just really into multiplayer. Captain price is a beast.

 

[PlayedStation]

And we're not even in 2023 yet. Buckle up.

IGN is doing something an hour before release. Might be worth a watch to kill the time:

"Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II's campaign drops on October 20, so tune in tomorrow starting at 9am PT as we stream trailers, gameplay, and an exclusive interview with the narrative team!"

 

[kikkis]

What difficulty are you going with? I usually start with normal, but its long time before mp release so might try something else.

How was mw2019 on veteran?

I usually do pretty easy mode just to see the story and sweat in MP but since I have a week to complete it might bump it up a little this time

Going Normal then doing Realism/Veteran for second playthrough.

Normal for me. Great move releasing the campaign the week before imo.

 

[PlayedStation]

I mean I did preorder it, might as well enjoy this early campaign perk.

Edit - So far its just the already seen trailers on repeat

Their stream is up

 

[Kerotan]

For the first time this year I have to go to my parents house for dinner and it's the exact time this launches!

You have a week before MP launches but I feel ya

Your parents are more important, plus you get food!

 

[wvnative]

Wish they'd just sell the campaign separately :/

 

[splattered]

Anyone think they will re-write the ghost story this version? He's always been huge for their brand/merch etc ... may be even more valuable if they change the story this time around and make it canon.

 

[splattered]

Keeps saying i'm too early... 2 minutes after 10am PT haha hmmm

 

[clarky]

Going in. Looking forward to some High budget trashy action.

 

[FeastYoEyes]

Keeps saying i'm too early... 2 minutes after 10am PT haha hmmm

Same problem here. Guess I'll check back later.

 

[clarky]

Fuck me its easier to set up a bank account. Not sure what im agreeing to but im in on steam

 

[Chiggs]

Hasn't unlocked on Steam...at least for me.

 

[clarky]

Update required. Then restart steam. Worked for me. waiting on shaders.

 

[smart_brazileiro]

First thing that is immediately noticeable... Pop-in is still as bad as in the beta even in the campaign. On PS5 Btw.

 

[clarky]

WOW this looks incredible.

Edit: Or it did, Completely crapped out my card restart hopefully sorts it lol.

 

[Chiggs]

This worked. Thanks!

 

[thatJohann]

This is the smoothest feeling 120Hz game I’ve ever played on Xbox Series X. Wow.

 

[Chiggs]

Hahaha @ the setup this game requires. Holy shit, is this a citizenship application?

 

[Pakoe]

Still locked on steam for me, even after restart

 

[funking giblet]

Asking me to rename my display name as it's not allowed. Then not allowing me to rename my display name...

You need a token, I think.

 

[Spukc]
