Call of Duty Modern Warfare will have a Realism Mode that sounds pretty amazing

Activision revealed yesterday that Call of Duty Modern Warfare will get a mutiplayer Realism Mode. This Realism Mode will target all fans of GRAW or other realistic shooters, and from the looks of it, it will be one of the best game modes.

Going into more details, there will be no hit makers or kill indicators/sounds in this mode. As such, players will know that their enemies are dead only if they see them dying. All headshots will be lethal and you’ll need only a few body shots in order to take down your enemies

What’s also really cool here is that, during night matches, you will be able to shoot lights for strategic purposes. Now this extra level of interactivity is something that will please a lot of players, so kudos to the developers.

Furthermore, gunplay and sound design will be completely overhauled for this particular mode. Also, and similarly to all other modes, the weapon handling and movement will be more realistic than the previous COD games.

In night matches, players will be able to equip their night vision goggles. However, and when equipped with them, they will not be able to use iron-sights. Without your night goggles, you will be able to use ADS (aiming down sights).

Below we’ve included some videos showcasing Call of Duty Modern Warfare’s Realism Mode. As a big fan of GRAW 2, I can see myself spending a lot of time in this mode. The fact that the game will also support cross-play means that there will be a lot of players in pretty much all available modes, so that’s a big plus.

  1. It sounds interesting but I’m worried that the game mode will be dead on arrival, since the CoD community play in a brainless run & gun way.

    1. maybe, I’m just glad they didn’t continue with futuristic crap.
      mp from yesterday looked pretty good, I am tempted

      1. temped, sure. but dont forget its still COD.

        the trailer looked good, then you see the COD stuff, killstreaks and all that garbage just reminds me that its COD.

    2. First off, the current CoD community are dumb as rocks, if they are still playing the current CoD titles. This game isn’t for them it seems. Seems to me the people making this game realized how bad CoD has gotten since MW2 and 3, and the 1st BO. There are tons of former CoD players seeing this who will come back in droves.
      2nd, this will be crossplatform, so at the very least, we will still be able to beat on console tryhards after the big crowds have gone. IW has said they will not be selling expansion packs, because they do not want to split the community.

    1. Not really. NMS always seemed flakey and bound to disappoint.

      Whereas some pople played the good CoD’s for years because it was so good. And this looks like those. Alot like those.

  2. Looks better than it was for sure, still it’s not Insurgency:Sandstorm “realism”. I:S is the sweet spot for me.

  3. We live in a time where COD does a better Battlefield then Battlefield. Im honestly kinda curious how this game will turn out, the 100 player matches sound pretty cool.

          1. The first one is hard, the second one is easy and the writing is a action fest that doesnt take itself seriously like most tom clancy games.

  4. I’m not going to pay for a call of duty game no matter what, i’ll pirate it if it has a good single player mode.

  5. “…and you’ll need only a few body shots in order to take down your enemies.”

    Yep, sounds realistic alright.

    Also, Advanced Warfighter was hilariously distant from the truly realistic Ghost Recon, which was the original. On PC, not that consolized garbage.

    I wouldn’t even acknowledge “Ghost Recon” in what it has become these days.

      1. LOL Seriously? So you just take a 556 in the chest with some kevlar, and just walk it off like a pinched nipple? That’s funny.

        1. In our case in the idf we get shot with 7.62 there is many soldiers who tanked shots and kept fighting only realizing a few minutes later they have been shot and are bleeding or untill they pass out.

          This is also due to adrenaline kicking in and dull the pain.
          Even when the bullets penetrate you can see soldiers shrugging it off untill they realize the damage they got, in a fight situation the adrenaline rush completely makes you a tank untill the effects run off or you pass out due to blood loss or get hit in a vital organ.

          There is a even a recent event about an officer with his soldiers under fire and he kept fighting without realizing he was even hit not once but 3 times, its not untill the unit medic was like “sir you are bleeding” and yet as a good leader he did not want to get evacuated untill all his soldiers were safe, the funny thing is that he said that he dont even remember being hit :p

  6. IMO it’s great that they support cross-play! This way the online players count will be quite balanced. Good way to prevent the PC version becoming a wasteland in less than 6 months!

  7. Meh! Its not bad…but this is how Battlefield used to be back in the day…this is how the MP should’ve been all along!

  8. It’s truly hard to believe that finally, a triple A FPS (THE triple A FPS) allowed a team who actually knows wtf they’re doing to be in charge again.

    The last 5-6 CoD’s have been designed by morons like Sledgehammer and Raven, and been utterly horrible.

    Really is astounding. Did not expect this gift.
