The multiplayer response of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 2022 (hereinafter referred to as Modern Warfare 2), which started testing on Steam on the 23rd, is not good. Users have mixed opinions about bugs and gameplay, and the Steam user evaluation is ‘complex’.
Modern Warfare 2 was well-received by public opinion with the information released before the test, but opinions are divided after the PC version test starts. As for the strengths, the gun loading motion is very detailed, the firing sound is developed, and the graphics are well-received as well as the story that the gun is more delicious.
On the other hand, the safety of bouncing during the game is pointed out as a big problem. In severe cases, there are many user opinions that it is impossible to play properly because it occurs with every version, so the bad reviews about Benox, the developer in charge of the PC version, are continuing. In terms of gameplay, it is also pointed out that the inconvenient UI, difficult-to-identify enemies, and relatively loud footsteps encourage camping behavior. There is also a reaction that the tempo of the game is slowed down because it is difficult to play fast run and gun.
Overall, there were more points pointed out than positive responses, which led to questions about the price of 84,500 won, and as of 1 pm on the 26th, the Steam user evaluation was ‘complex (22,219 participants 56% positive)’. It remains to be seen whether Modern Warfare 2, which is about a month away from release, can improve the currently known problems.
Separately, Modern Warfare 2 ranked third on the Steam Worldwide Best Selling Chart, showing opposite results. Other than that, the construction simulator released on the 20th ranked 5th, and Dead by Daylight, which revealed plans for future updates, ranked 10th.
In the TOP 20 of the highest concurrent users in a day, Modern Warfare 2 rose to 6th place with a maximum number of concurrent users of 168,330, realizing its popularity. Civilization 6, Rainbow Six Siege, and Total War: Warhammer 3 took 17th, 19th, and 20th places, leaving Gundam Evolution, The Scrolls of Taiwu, and Warframe out of the rankings.
