Sub-machine guns are currently king in multiplayer. These weapons, alongside the M16 and its satisfying burst fire, have been my choices at range, and I don’t appear to be alone in that regard as only a handful of weapons seem a viable competitive option at launch. One well-placed shot to the head or upper torso is enough to secure a kill in Cold War, and while snipers aren’t as prevalent as they were in the pre-release phases, they can still feel too dominant at times.

The great-feeling gunplay is there, as you’d expect from Call of Duty, and it’s smooth and responsive as well. Having put well over 200 hours into Warzone and Modern Warfare’s multiplayer over the last year, jumping into Cold War felt instantly different. With longer time-to-kill, a visual step down when compared to last year’s gorgeous Modern Warfare, and a return to simpler map designs, this year’s Call of Duty multiplayer is somewhat of a backwards step for the series.
