Popular Post JeManquedHygiene Posted October 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2022 I unfortunately skipped the classes to get a Call of Duty PhD, and the weird naming conventions of the Modern Warfare saga were getting me increasingly confused. There's no way I'm the only one. So to anyone still struggling, here is a complete summary I've just made for myself, with related trophy lists : Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is the 1st game of the COD MW saga, released on PS3 in 2007. It doesn't have any trophy, due to lack of trophy support back then. If you want it in your collection, however, you can complete Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered instead. It was released on PS4 in 2016 and features only the remastered campaign of the game. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is the 2nd game of the series. It was released on PS3 in 2009. Platinum is still obtainable, but there is also a campaign-only remastered version for the PS4 if you want : Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Campaign Remastered. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 is the 3rd game of the series. It was released on PS3 in 2011. No remaster as of yet, so this game is only playable on PS3 as far as I know. Platinum still obtainable. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare is the 4th game of the series. It was released on PS4 in 2019. It is a reboot of the original COD MW from 2007 (not a remaster), which means it is an entirely different game. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (notice the "II" in Roman numerals instead of "2") is the 5th game of the series, and the one that just came out. It was released on October 28th 2022 on PS4/5. It is also a completely different game from the original COD MW 2. Hope that helps. Also, feel free to comment if I got anything wrong. 34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

totallycrushed Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 It really isn't that confusing. Also COD4 remaster does include multiplayer and has the Variety Map Pack available., 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theSpirae Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 It's not confusing but it's lazy and lame. Just like the generic CoD campaigns and MPs are. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post wajbsb Posted October 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2022 (edited) I think the OP has a valid point and is clearly just trying to be helpful to others without any kind of benefit to themselves - that alone should be applauded. Personally, I think it can and does get confusing. If you aren't confused by it, then this thread isn't for you, that's ok - just move on by and carry on, happy in the knowledge that it's something you don't need to worry about. If you are confused by it, I think this thread is helpful. Thanks, OP, for taking time out to share your work!

Baranov_925 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 I don't feel confused, but I don't understand why they didn't name it COD MW5 or V, do they think gamers can't count that high? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to go from "Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare" to "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2" is a weird use of numbers only really seen in video games and giving the same name to a new game as an old game is really annoying even if you understand it cause then you have to clarify and so you have to includes it's release year so you know which one you're actually talking about They also removed the 4 in the remaster so you have "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare" and "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered" which are two completely different games with the remaster being an old game and it's fucking dumb imo Edited October 30, 2022 by olliebear66t 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titanomachy_75 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 why would you name the game twice dont care if its II 2 or still the same name its bush league!!!

Its a Reboot not a continuation. They wouldn't even be able to use half the charecters if that was the case. But I do agree the naming is lazy and used just to use the name recognition of the old game to bring nostalgia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GothGirlMaxine Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 (edited) To be fair, anyone is new to the series might be confused, so this post has some benefit to new gamers or trophy hunters. After all, the forums are a platform that includes helping others, so nice work OP! Edited October 30, 2022 by StygianWolf4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah once you understand it's easy but if you're just new to gaming or new to cod it's not like you don't have to do a bit of research and a bunch of google searches to get your head around it, not to mention if any of them are unobtainable platinums or not which you have nicely laid out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgm4789 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Yeah, honestly they should have followed black ops and drop the numbers in favor of a fitting subtitle. The last modern warfare made sense as the original was called cod 4 modern warfare(only dropping the 4 with the remaster) but mw II needed something other then replacing a number with a roman numeral.

Popular Post farradono Posted October 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2022 (edited) To be fair they named the 4th Black Ops “IIII” so I’m not sure they’re actually following Roman numerals.
