[PCGamer] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is bringing back third-person mode

Yea, I don't know how it works either.

Infinity Ward is dropping lots of new Modern Warfare 2 details during its Call of Duty Next(opens in new tab) event today, including the first trailer for multiplayer and details of Warzone 2.0's DMZ mode(opens in new tab). The trailer is pretty much your standard CoD promo—guns, explosions, a remixed song from the '90s. But for a brief moment, we got a glimpse at something that hasn't been in Call of Duty since the 2009 original Modern Warfare 2.

Remember third-person mode? It's back, albeit tentatively. As Infinity Ward flaunted this feature, it's unclear to what extent it'll be implemented in the final game.

The studio described third-person as a "modifier" that it can turn on for any multiplayer mode. That includes Warzone 2.0. It doesn't sound like IW is committing to third-person, but if it proves popular, it could stick around. It definitely looks a lot snazzier than the original Modern Warfare 2's official third-person mode from 2009. It was janky, weird, and definitely just a camera mod, but it had its fans. One of the implications for Warzone and other multiplayer modes would be the ability to see around corners without peeking, a style that PUBG players will already be familiar with.

Trailer:

#1  Very cool, Bad.
I'm afraid to get started!

#2  I don't play multiplayer, but the campaign in the last Modern Warfare (2019) was so well written, I had to include this sequel as a news item here, which it is.

Mexico is what caught my attention.

As a side note: Volodya (Putin) has given the writers at Infinity Ward so much new material for future iterations of Modern Warfare..

That's the good news.

The bad news:

Russians still are the Bad Guys.

-Signs, Portents, and the Weather-
The New World Order is Already Here
[The Exposé] The New World Order is already here. We’re living in it. And things are going to get far, far worse during the coming months because we are now already in the kill phase of the Great Reset. Decisions are made by, or according to the demands of, a tiny group of lobbyists and cultists who have been manipulated into representing the interests of the conspirators — either wittingly or though stupidity and ignorance.

We are being controlled by conspirators who control the sort of people who believe that gluing themselves to the road in front of ambulances is a good thing to do.

The world is full of people who think that those of us who worry about what is happening are half crazed conspiracy theorists. But the odd thing is that most of those people who think we are conspiracy theorists are themselves concerned about things that are happening and that have affected them. The problem is that they haven’t looked at the big picture — they don’t realise that all the bad things that have been happening in the last few years are connected. The rebranded flu, global warming, the manipulated war against Russia, the war against us, the deliberately destroyed global economy, the price rises, the inflation — they are all linked.

The innocents have failed to put two and two together, partly because they’ve been too busy worrying about individual threats to their daily lives, partly because they find it difficult to believe that anyone could conceive of a plot as evil as the one that has been underway for years, partly because they’re naïve, unquestioning and too ready to believe what they’re told by an utterly corrupt mainstream media, and partly because right from the start those of us who’ve told the truth have been demonised, lied about, censored, suppressed and very effectively silenced by the mainstream media.

When the Great Reset finally arrives, Sir Klaus Schwab, knighted by Queen Elizabeth for services to conspiracy, will be the unelected King of an entirely corrupt world government. Schwab, a 40s villain from central casting, a cross between Dr Strangelove, Ernst Blofeld and Dr Mengele, will be surrounded by a gang of C list crooks, conspirators and half-forgotten celebrities.

If we’re not careful we are going to be controlled by those I regard as sad, sorry, second-rate human beings; people such as Fauci, Whitty, shabby little civil servants, and Gates, a friend of Jeffrey Epstein and the BBC. (If Epstein were still alive, the BBC would doubtless give him a chat show.) Dolly Parton and Piers Morgan will be joint Global Ministers in charge of apparently knowing everything but, in reality, understanding nothing. Charles, a 70 odd year old bloke who has to have help taking the top off his breakfast egg and putting toothpaste on his brush, will be in charge of entitlement with William and Kate, a pair of Stepford wives, as his assistants. The Duke and Duchess of California will doubtless be in charge of whingeing and sulking — and a good job they’ll make of it I’m sure.

If we allow these sad and sorry creatures to defeat us it will be like the Brazilian football team being thrashed by a team of one-legged pirates with the scurvy.

But, sadly, we are being beaten. The conspirators and the collaborators are already running the world.’

The REAL Axis of Evil: How nuclear-armed Russia, China and Iran are plotting to break up the West with a new world order

#1  these three countries DO NOT

trust each other

like each other

sure they may cooperate on a few things but a new world order is not one of them

#2  Russia, China and Iran are threatening a new 'world order', breaking up the West through cyber attacks, election interference, territorial landgrabs, bare-faced aggression, propaganda and nuclear stockpiling.

LOL.

Sounds like Hillary Clinton still trying to blame the Russians for her defeat in 2016.

Land grabs? Since when did Crimea belong to Joe Biden?

And who is actually encouraging the Mad Mullahs to develop nuclear weapons? I'm guessing Baraq Obama.

Propaganda? BBC, CBS, Washington Post, New York Times...Who is better at it than they are?

Not wasting any more of my time on this nonsense.

#3  Woke Green Eco Commie Western Liberal Democracies are increasingly perceived as the true axis of evil and are becoming more of an immediate threat to patriots and the fabric of our societies and culture than Russia, China, Iran.

When I am censored on the internet and kicked off a platform, it's not in Russia, China, or Iran. When they centrally plan what I can drive, it is not Russia, China, Iran. The US has more American political prisoners, and more of those US citizen prisoners are in solitary confinement than Russian China, Iran combined. It wasn't Russia, China, or Iran the funded, trained, supported, and installed the ngo non-profit infrastructure for the last two decades of successful colour revolutions which have largely done little more than to destabilize the world.
