Starting as a first-person shooter game in 2003, Call of Duty has become a global franchise, with fans from all over the world. It has 24 titles under its belt, each one happening in a different time and location. But among all the parts, the Modern Warfare sub-series consisting of 4 games, stands out the most.
One reason could be because it takes place in contemporary times, so players can enjoy the battle at their favorite places like Paris, Afghanistan, etc. This huge following has also attracted memers, who are poking fun at the things that seem strange in the series.

This is the age of reboots. Almost all the major classic gaming franchises like Resident Evil and Crash Bandicoot are getting remastered or rebooted. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is no exception. The most crucial element of a remaster is that it should remain true to the original and does not lose its essence.
Unfortunately, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare fell short in that department. It tweaked the facial features of Frank Woods, introduced as an operator. His beard was lightened and his jaw got more chubby.
9 Pay To Play
Fortnite was the first game that mainstreamed the in-game purchases. Players could buy skins, emotes, and special items that other games would frown upon. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, back in the day, promoted players to grind, and then they were granted a special item.
But now, the game has become more “corporate”. It promotes players to throw money at new skins, guns, and items to flex in front of their friends. This approach may be profitable but does not do justice to hardcore players of the game.
8 Beach Ghillie Outfit
With every season comes new characters and skins. Grinch got this part ghillie and part beach outfit in the Eloko Bundle. Fans had mixed feelings about this one. It’s surprising to think about what the thought process would’ve been when creating this skin.
The developers let their imagination run a bit too wild this time. Although, fans also think it’s cool. This strange outfit does at least one thing- make him stand out from the crowd. And that serves the purpose of spending on a skin.
7 Modern Problems Require Modern Warfare
The months of March and February were the most difficult in 2020. People had to adapt to living in their homes all day long, without interacting with anyone from the outside. Eventually, all sources of entertainment ran out and it started affecting the sanity of people.
That’s when WHO announced that playing games would help in this pandemic. It didn’t matter if anyone followed the advice or not, but it was a proud moment for the gamers. Finally, everyone can be a part of Modern Warfare fandom.
6 Maxing Out One Ability
SpecOps and Multiplayer are two modes in Modern Warfare. The Spec Ops are small missions that can be completed solo or with a team. While the multiplayer picked up some momentum but it went downhill after the release of 3e.
Infinity Ward also shifted focus to Warzone to establish it as a Fortnite and PUBG competitor. They have been somewhat successful but the cost was huge.
5 The Dream Of Every COD Player
Even though the game is popular among all young audiences, the majority are men, more specifically teenagers. Mainly because of its action and hardcore graphics. People who have never touched a gun in real life, know all about them from Call of Duty.
So in a game of paintball, the boys are bound to go Alpha and show off their skills acquired from hours of grinding at the game. Maybe a cooking competition will put them down.
4 COD Is Depressing
The excitement of buying a new game and thinking about it all day long. Then going home and finally firing up the console to play it. Every gamer can relate to this. Games, especially Call of Duty, are very addictive. And when players start to suck at one thing for hours- it starts to take a toll on their health.
All that glamour turns into despair. Since mastering it takes time and practice. The process leaves the poor gamers exhausted and depressed. But nothing can match the feeling of accomplishment after something in the game.
3 Gamers Heaven
As much as players want to play the game, they can’t. There are many reasons but the main ones are having a job and not getting enough time to spend gaming. Eventually, friends grow out of it and life goes on. But there are rare moments in months when the stars align perfectly.
Playing Call of Duty with the squad, eating pizza, and having two free days ahead. Nothing can be more gratifying than this.
2 Traitors, Everywhere!
Friends are an important part of one’s life. They support in the lows, listen to problems and one can get vulnerable in front of them. However, some friends have ulterior motives and they put on a facade and wait for the right moment to strike.
General Shepherd was one of them. He was in league with Makarov the whole time and planned on starting a war. He took his companion’s life for the sake of his dream.
1 Give Me A Name!
With a long mustache, manly voice, and a get things done attitude, Captain Price made his debut in Modern Warfare and since then has become a huge part of the franchise. To this day, he has the same demeanor and power. Captain Price is a practical man, who is not afraid to get his hands dirty.
So, if someone forgets to type their name in a Call of Duty game, they should imagine him asking for it. Surely, the players would come around and happily oblige to his demand.
