The game is another typical CoD: health regen and never-ending enemy spawns. Graphics are not much better than those of MW1 but damn, this game needs some monster-machines. I have to put the settings on minimum to keep it playable, while MW1 runs without problems on medium settings (therefore looks better).
A little gameplay-change is the heavily reduced recoil. Weapons now shake a bit, like if the devs wanted to say: "Look, it shakes. We sure thought about recoil and and we love recoil-GFX, but it shouldn't really impact gameplay." I got no problem with this, it just changes the feeling of the game a bit from "spray'n'pray" to "spray'n'hit-everything-instantly".

Als ich das Spiel das erste mal gestartet habe, war ich ziemlich skeptisch. Natürlich hat CoD seine Schwächen, stupides Gegner abknallen, ohne taktische Tiefe, schnurgerade Schlauchlevels und wenig eigene Entscheidungen. Auf der anderen Seite ist die Grafik hervorragend und die Story packend. Ich habe die Kampagne schnell durchgehabt, das macht aber nichts, weil man gerne auch mal ein paar Missionen wiederholt. Der Arcade-Modus sorgt dann noch einmal für einen Motivationsschub. Leider glänzt Modern Warfare 1 ni9cht gerade mit riesiger Waffenauswahl, die Entwickler haben sich scheinbar aufs Wesentliche beschränkt. Da sieht es bei Black Ops wesentlich besser aus.

When I started the game the first time, I was pretty skeptical. Of course CoD shoot has its weaknesses, stupid enemies without tactical depth, straight tube levels and little own decisions. On the other hand, the graphics are excellent and the story gripping. I have been through the campaign quickly, but that does not matter because you also like to repeat a few times missions. The arcade mode ensures then again for a motivation boost. Unfortunately shines Modern Warfare 1 not just with a huge selection of weapons, the developers have apparently restricted to the essentials. Since it looks much better in Black Ops.
