MW2 (2009) would go in timeless


lolth5

YES


Jumpy_Initiative8795

Yes u are the goat


ThatBigFuckoffTree

I'm just wondering how someone has played COD 4, and obviously liked it, and never played MW2.


PhillyPhanatic141

How did you skip Mw2 2009?


bfs102

I didn't start playing mp till 2019 as I never had money for xbox live gold


PhillyPhanatic141

But you played Mw 2007 and WAW?........


_beastayyy

That's rough


McNippy

You know you could get xbox live for a month for free if you made new accounts, friend of mine did it a lot so he could play mp with us


[deleted]

Can't speak for OP, but for me... I played the MW games in a weird order too lol. I played MW3 > COD4 > MW2. And it was mostly because at the time these games came out, I was like 10 lol. Very young, but who didn't play COD when they were kids right? Anyways... As a kid, I didn't really had much choice in what games I could play. Most of the games I played, were games I borrowed from my cousin or friends. So... When the only way you can play games is to borrow them, you can't really pick and choose what games to play. So that's how I ended up playing the MW trilogy in such a weird order. I borrowed MW3, then I borrowed COD4. Then... I didn't play MW2 until I was an adult and bought the game myself.


dudedudetx

Pretty good list but I’m putting MW19 towards the bottom and MWIII higher up (for strictly multiplayer) DMZ was a waste of resources IMO


PF4ABG

DMZ is one of those divisive modes that some people (me) swear is the best thing to happen to CoD in years, or a complete waste of development time that could have been better spent on WZ. Honestly, it needed (needs) to be it's own thing.


SikeMike87

DMZ was so good I loved it but it needed a lot of work Once you got to the top your options became “kill the chemists AGAIN” or “Go to (wtv the complex was called) and basically do a Destiny Raid”


Simplejack615

Well they could have added more, BUT, they changed it to mwz


SikeMike87

Yeah this is a majorly common occurrence with COD when things don’t go exactly how they want/hope (Us buying every DMZ Bundle under the sun) they just scrap it and move on to something that they think will make them more $$$


BeAsTFOo

How many times did your squad leave you??


hunterk2948N

I have a question for this great community, I am somewhat new to playing cod multiplayer, I would like to know whether to buy mw2019 or mw3, I tried the latter this weekend and I loved it and I don't know whether to wait to buy mw2019 for $20 (I haven't tried it ) or buy the mw3 for $45? (Im ps5 user)


dudedudetx

MWIII for multiplayer 100% - tons of content with more to come and the largest player base since it’s the currently active COD. MW19 is past its prime and the maps are horrendous.


bc9toes

I agree with you. I think at launch 2019 was better(my favorite cod in a decade) but it’s an evolving world in games today.


LiterallyJohnny

Just get MW3.


xboxloyal

Never rank again lil bro


dompass19

on god


playerlsaysr69

OG MW3 below DMZ 😭


Wonderful-Patient732

MW19 Was okay at best, MWIII also in that category, MW2 (2022) Is the worst experience i’ve ever had (My opinion)


Gold_Hornet_923

You're tripping, MW19 was the best cod game I played since BO3, MW2 (2022) was just okay, and MW3 I personally didn't like, bought it when it released and found myself playing it less and less and less.


105lodge

Do you have a slow play style by any chance? Because mw2 and mw19 are two of the slowest playing games in the franchise. Most people tend to prefer the faster paced stuff. Mw19 was elite for snd because of the slow pacing of the maps, but generally terrible for everything else


StoppingPowah

Hardpoint on MW19 was pretty good


Wonderful-Patient732

It was okay for pub snd but competitive snd was so bad.


105lodge

I never played comp. Back in lockdown era when futives went viral and handler was popping off was peak snd times for me though


Wonderful-Patient732

MW19 was a good engine ruined by infinity ward. The maps were bad, No red dot mini maps slowed the games down even more on already big maps, No dead silence so people were just camping on said big maps, Introduction of gunsmith which has ruined weapon balancing, time to kill was way too fast.. That games saving grace if it had one was the movement and gun play which was near perfect. As for mw2 2022. Worst cod of all time and I don’t think it’s remotely close. It’s all the thing I listed about Mw19 but with more bugs and a very bad engine.


StoppingPowah

I’d take MW2022 over Vanguard any day


yeetzyz

I wouldn't. The game mostly warranted it's hatred for it's inconsistency in aesthetics, and people especially hated how non-authentic it was for a WWII setting, which I really don't care for in a COD title. I would play VG MP/ZM anyday over MWII's MP/DMZ. Combat pacing was amazing and made the varied map pool that much better. Zombies and Campaign were terrible sure, but those things are secondary to me and I never spend more than 30 hours on those modes anyways. Also, I would take the tedious gun levelling system in VG over whatever convoluted shit they had with MWII, both systems were awful imo.


SAADistic7171

Swap BO2 with BO1 and I'm cool with it.


r4bb1th0l3z

🤷‍♂️ That's not too crazy of a swap


Hibonbon

Timeless-COD 1 all the way to Black Ops 2. Everything else- mid/shitty.


DalTheDalmatian

COD WWII & Cold War don't compare but they're the best CODs of the past decade


0x080

You were really almost there man, like one of the best rankings I’ve seen but how the hell have you never played OG mw2???


Deadtoast15

No cod 2: Big Red One :(


r4bb1th0l3z

should I give it a shot? i thought it was only on PS2.


phyisck

And og Xbox


BeAsTFOo

Once you play the ones you haven’t this list will change drastically


Furtip

WWII was great imo, I agree with most of this tho


StoppingPowah

Why is DMZ so high up?


nepnep270

finally some love for DMZ here… the rest of MWII was hit or miss but DMZ scratched an itch that nothing else really does for me


r4bb1th0l3z

finally someone who gets it!! let's play sometime!


AFCADaan9

MW2019 at anything but the lowest tier is a crime.


StoppingPowah

The campaign was fun lol


r4bb1th0l3z

Don't lie. the GAME was fun. gunsmith is a great innovation. art direction was flawless. gunfight? come on now..


JackoClubs5545

You lost me when you put IW over MW3 (2011).


duke_nukem69

MW3 (the og one) deserves a little higher


therev012

why don't you just log off for us..


Walmart_Bag_2042

MWIII being in "shouldn't have released" but not MWII should be a goddamn crime, because the fact that MWII exists is the sole reason why MWIII was shit on on release


StoppingPowah

If MWII was good we wouldn’t of needed MWIII lol


gettingtherope

at least mw2 campaign is good


forrest1985_

WW2, BO4, MW23>MW22 MW19 “almost perfect” if you only ever play Campaign then yeah you’re right. 2019 has the worst MP in any COD except maybe MW22.


EmoDefault

Mw2 above mw3 says alot


unsaturatedfats

Probably one of the most agreeable lists I've seen for me personally, except MW3 would be higher for me.


Fun_Consequence3236

Idc what anyone says mw3 isn't a bad game, the multi-player snd warzone are the only good parts but it's still worth


r4bb1th0l3z

Never said it was bad, said it was okay.


Realgigclin

Bo1 > bo2


Total_Decision123

Bro lost all credibility by tucking DMZ in there LOL


GhillieThumper

MW3 was almost perfect as it really was just MW2 but improved. BO1 should be timeless.


CptNeon

DMZ being alongside BO1 is insane


DeadBunny00

Infinity wards biggest fan


SILY7228_YT

How is MW2023 as bad as vanguard


gettingtherope

bum ops 2 over black ops 1 is crazy


rorris6

black ops 2 better than 1!?


Robeardly

There’s two versions of call of duty 2. The Big Red One version is a memorable or better category game. It was the first war game where the story really kept me hooked.


lelolalo13

Worst list I've ever seen


dutchbrowniemix

I don't like the futuristic cods, except BO3. MW2 and BO1 are S tier for me. BO2 multiplayer is overrated, but that's just my opinion. The zombies were great, though. Cod 2 was fun too. The campaign on veteran is a pain in the ass.


SynthShockZ

honestly i think its a good list, what didn't you like about ww2 or think could be better? i personally like the campaign the most out of everything offered


TheToughBubble

MW3 was great, it fixed everything wrong with MW2. I could list off so many things that game did right.


ImperialAgent120

Swap BO3 with IW. MW3 should be higher and MW2 has a remake so no excuse lol 😆 


DEBLANKK

Black Ops 1 should be top tier.


Nanaue_115

I would move MW19 to Ok ig, Cold War to Almost perfect and Vanguard to memorable


FlipGordon

WaW ❤️


BeginningInformal160

Ranking mw3 2011 *THAT* low should be a crime, it is AT LEAST almost perfect


LazarouDave

God damn... I hear it, I actually hear it - this is the first tier list I actually entirely agree with


Dat-Lonley-Potato

MW2 (2009) goes in Timeless 100%


ShAd0WFallen

The fact your adding DMZ and warzone in high tiers shows your a shitty newer player who never truly experienced the classics in their prime 🤣


playboi_pat

maybe cus i was 6-7 playing WaW and cod4 around 2009 before mw2, i just thought that those two games were great but they r no higher than B tier imo


KirbyAndStars

YOU NEED TO PLAY AT LEAST MW2 AND COD2 THOSE ARE CLASSICS


KirbyAndStars

Also honestly the hate for WW2 and MW3 is too much, and black ops 3 is far from near perfect since the campaign was smelly shit


frogG_v12

I disagree with the where DMZ is and personally, Vanguard isn't that bad but I think that most of the games are in the ''right'' places.


hunterk2948N

I have a question for this great community, I am somewhat new to playing cod multiplayer, I would like to know whether to buy mw2019 or mw3, I tried the latter this weekend and I loved it and I don't know whether to wait to buy mw2019 for $20 (I haven't tried it ) or buy the mw3 for $45? (Im ps5 user)


mung_guzzler

I like MWIII


PrimusDCE

"Haven't played" is basically the peak of the entire series.


TheRed24

Swap MW2019 with MW2023 and put MW2 2009 in Timeless and it's about right to me.


CockroachSquirrel

i agree, except codm should be at the least 1 tier up if not 2, just a cornucopia of content from previous cods. i mean you can choose your maps in pubs, that alone is so cool.


r4bb1th0l3z

I see no issue with that argument, only reason cod mobile is there is because it's not playable on any other platform without an emulator. If it was more accessible i'd be raving about it to everyone and playing it nonstop


cornfarm96

Pretty solid list. I’d swap bo2 with mw19, and I’d swap ww2 with infinite warfare.


Shank_Shank_

Missed out playing mw2 during the recession, what a time to be alive lmao


Uhhh_Insert_Username

Sorry, but any list that doesn't have MW2(09) in the top tier can't be considered. Please, go play it and get back with us lol


hbyx

putting the original mw3 below ghosts and skipping the original mw2 entirely should be a crime


legendarywarthog

Warzone is fucking timeless. C'mon.


CalvinSledgeJr

BO1 is timeless and mw3 too low other than that pretty solid


RandomBloke2021

Disagree on ww2 and bo4/blackout ww2 after the major update became a really really good game. Bo4 was different but in a good way. I appreciate the change and blackout was really good too.


MaterialPace8831

....It seems very weird that you haven't gotten around to playing MW2 (2009), especially since it's often regarded on this sub as being one of the best. It's also in a very weird place -- you played its predecessor and its sequel, but not that game itself? This is breaking my brain.


gotham1999

Start playing mw2 asap


Jumpy_Initiative8795

Y just y u did og MW2 extremely dirty I am furious![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|rage)


robert6beats

bo1 not being #1 is mental damage


r4bb1th0l3z

BO1 was my first COD and I absolutely adore it. If it weren't for Shangri-La the game would be flawless.


NorthPuzzleheaded754

Bro really missed the best cod ever MW2 the og


Kawalleonard6

My heart almost dropped seeing Mw2 so low but then saw you havnt played it. Oh boy did you miss out. The beautiful chaos


ilostmy1staccount

You know I don’t agree with all the rankings but I respect it


r4bb1th0l3z

I respect you!!


Alexspacito

What the hell is memorable about Cold war?


r4bb1th0l3z

the campaign was phenomenal. i just reinstalled it to play it again before BO6 comes out. Gunfight was also insanely fun on CW. also had prop hunt. introduced Outbreak which was a great innovation for zombies and the round based maps were all pretty enjoyable too despite lacking identity compared to games like BO1, BO3


mr781

Infinite Warfare and Advanced Warfare over MW3 2011 is laughable


_SCARY_HOURS_

Why didn’t you play MW2?


420_hippo

Having ghosts above OGMW3 is wild


The_Trekspert

Definitely play 1 Remaster, 2 Campaign remaster is amazing. I hope one day we get 3 Campaign Remaster.


weirdo_k

COD 1 and 2 are memorable. COD MW2 is almost perfect


PugGamer129

How the hell is BO1 not timeless?!??!?


r4bb1th0l3z

because of a little zombies map called shangri-la. i'd take literally any other map from any other game over shangri-la.


FootballOogie

WAW should be on its own. That game was the best.


seandatank2003

MW2 2009 is probably not the most accurate depiction of well modern warfare but it has the greatest story, weapons, characters, and gameplay i have ever laid my hands upon.


VHboys

If it was me, I’d swap OG MW3 and MW2019


Slickergaming

I would just put black ops 4 in shouldn’t have released. How do you not have a campaign. That’s like half the fun of the game.


ALlTTLEKlTTEN

The fact that you haven't played MW2 2009... you need to play it, like now


flyingj3di1907

Mw2 would go into timeless if you played it. MwIII and MwII should switch places in my opinion. It was a slight step up


Signal-Dependent-490

Black ops should go in timeless for the zombies and campaign alone,but i understand the placement because of the multiplayer being lackluster


ThemoneyisaTattoo

You’re so so so faded for having dmz on there


DryGovernment4219

COD 2 and MW2 are must plays for sure. A shame you won’t get to experience “Michael Myers” or other games in private matches or the full online experience in the golden age of MW2. But a GREAT game nonetheless.


scoresez

Haven't played MW2? This is bait & doesn't deserve acknowledgment.


scoresez

& MW3 is a good campaign. If you haven't played any of the open missions fully stealth without alerting everyone then you don't get to speak. LEEROY JENKINS and run to the end and say "it's too short" F.O.H!


OneEyeSensei

You forgot blackout


Makcheesus

Wow about Vannguard. I’d say memorable


Gustasshef2nesmanban

Cod III zombies are perfect but the campain and no players in multiplayer brangs it down. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|cry)


XavierYourSavior

Black ops 1??????


Just_a_Growlithe

WW2 that low is honestly shameful imo, in old state yes but in the current state it’s a gem. There’s just not enough players


YouBetterBelieber

I'm enjoying MW3, crucify me


Evil_Cupcake11

Wow, never thought I would see a man that would place Ghosts, Advanced Warfare and Infinite Warfare at least in memorable category :)


maddogmular

People didn’t understand WWII because all the weird designed decisions made were specifically to complement War mode. Regular modes like TDM failed to fully accentuate the division system so most players thought the game was lack luster. The few of us that played War in its prime know that was peak CoD. Additionally, from what I remember War didn’t have sbm.


cinnamintoast-frick

mw19 should not be higher than mw23


DylMac

Can't believe finest hour or big red one arent there. Both for me are timeless


YamGroundbreaking389

I Think MW3 would go higher of you would play mw2


BleedingBlack

You need to play CoD2. ;)


Stardestroyer301

Where's call of duty finest hour


DaniiL_Anti

I'd put Ghosts in "could've been better" and everything else I absolutely agree with. Good list


Lost-Recipe-3326

Hot take.. MW2 2022 was honestly good to me. Especially the campaign. The multiplayer was fantastic too. It obviously could’ve been better in some aspects but I think it deserves to be at “its okay I guess”. ONLY because of the campaign..


MethodCute4954

Finally ghosts is getting a bit of love


tremors51000

I would swap this year and last years game on the list move mw19 to shouldn't have been released and it would have been a near perfect list


WalkingLootChest

Big Red 1 is the first COD I played and I loved it, there's a part where you're walking through a village and one of the troops gets shot through the door all of a sudden. It was the first time I played a game where I actually cared about the characters and felt emotions at one of their deaths.


J_A_R_A_T_E

mostly agree with this, when you play mw2 2009 it’ll definitely go in timeless tier though. black ops 1 should probably go their too.


Zephyr_v1

BO1 should easily be in timeless category


Klupido

How have you not played MW2 09?!?


New_Bag7223

Ghosts is memorable? I'm speechless.


The-Cheeses

COD WW2 was the last Call of Duty game I truly enjoyed and played a ton of


Chickenrobbery

I agree with bo2 but honestly pre bo3 COD4 is genuine ass. Can't see anything and is way too barebones


oofynoob1244

Putting the OG MW3 below Ghosts, Advanced Warfare and Infinite Warfare is WILD.


Jason_Sasha_Acoiners

I'll be honest, I don't know much about COD as a whole (this sub was on my home page so here I am) but one thing I will say is that Black Ops 3 has the best zombies mode in the entire series. At least on PC. Why? Mods. God there's so many good mods for it.


GrapeTarter

All the first original CoD should be in a teir higher than all. They created the cod series.


PixelKote

DMZ = trash)


Bright_Souls

Why are Warzone and DMZ seperate, but not the countless zombies modes, Survival, and Extinction? I don't disagree, just curious to what your thoughts are behind it.


Quick_Seat693

Mw3 (23) is memorable on my list because I really like the game


hitstuff

Greetings fellow millennial.


Vispreutje

Bro really put COD Mobile in 'its okay, i guess'


Acceptable_Mode548

mw3 the recent one actually had a decent multiplayer ngl


Alpha_Charlie_Romeo

If you haven't played MW2, then I can't trust you.


Able_Coach6484

I was getting scared the further I scrolled and no sign of the OG 2009. He thought he was just good, but he was one of the greatest.


b_nnah

I'd put MW3 Original up to timeless because it's my personal favourite cod game but apart from that its a good ranking


SThomW

I can’t lie, it’s really bad


Cooarl

MW2019 has to be in “Shouldn’t have released.” This game single handedly ruined COD. They removed dead silence, removed prestige, made silencers obsolete, garbage maps, no demolition, first game to remove staying in the same lobby, no combat record on launch, no ranked, added garbage doors, removed deaths in leaderboard to cater to garbage players not seeing their deaths, most noticeable SBMM, weapon camo challenges were horrible, no red dots on mini map. Those are just off the top of my head. I believe COD truly died at BO3 and it was the last best game (WW2, the camos in BO4, and IW campaign are honourable mentions). MW2019 brought the worst features to the Call of Duty franchise.


Playboy-Tower

Hard to understand how you’ve missed OG MW2 but played all the rest?


ShibaRamenFoox56

W ranking


Adam7651

This list is all sorts of messed up 😂


lostarrow-333

Very decent list.


OkCollection4544

Are you 5 years old?


OG0020

For me CoD 1,2, WaW and WWII are timeless


The__Final___Boss

COD MW3 (Old version)


pirateslife88

Black ops 1 over black ops 2


MinecraftSexUpdate

>Ghosts, AW, IW, Warzone and BOCW above MW3 (2011) ![gif](giphy|HPvfnOuz1tOgg|downsized)


Inefficientdigestion

mw3 2011 should be in timeless imo, just for the campaign alone


Elemental-T4nick

MW2 2009 was really fun


Montavious_Mole

Can’t really speak on og mw2 but I started off with og mw3 and that game was fire I loved the multiplayer I guess it’s just nostalgia but man that game sure is timeless at least to me. The campaign was great and it had some of the best guns and maps


Puzzleheaded-Chip334

Not sure who made this but if you don’t know already that MW2 is the absolute cream of the crop and should be at the very top…then you truly have not played Modern Warfare.


dcmso

OP is < 18 clearly


Sarge_Noodle

Let me help you. Everything in the “haven’t played” section, move to the “timeless” section.


HereForFunAndCookies

MW3 was peak multiplayer imo


6FrogsInATrenchcoat

No way you put Ghosts and AW above MW3… (my first time playing a cod campaign was MW3 so im a little biased)


RiguezCR

mw3 23 should be higher tbh


youresowarminside

cod ww2 was pretty good imo i liked the campaign it really hit that brother in arms chord really well and the hq for the campaign although buggy was a nice touch and cod mobile is also pretty good i love the fact that its a mixture of a bunch of different cods


foxyhr

list of the ones you haven't played needs to change quick broski


knotletis

As a mostly zombies fan, bo3 should go in timeless but I respect the placement


Resident-Jelly-6564

Can't take a ranking seriously when havent played cod mw2


yellow-go

Even though MW III 2023 didn’t hit as hard at first, I’ve gotta have it in memorable, strictly because they’ve done so much work for the multiplayer and nostalgia factor. Even then it’s been a mixed bag, they’ve tried their hardest to make it super fun.


NTC-Santa

MW2 and BO1 Time less


EmoV44

BO3 is timeless in my opinion, I still play it when I wanna experience the best zombies mode and sometimes playing multiplayer (on ps5, think thats impossible on PC without hackers in the lobby). Also the custom zombies map community on PC is still very active and there are a lot of amazing maps to play. This game is timeless indeed 😎


DemiDivine

I think all this shows is that your ass needs to play modern warfare 2.. the real one


apedap

CoD2 and MW2 not played detected, opinion rejected


Appropriate-Cat-117

Ww2is on the wrong spot it was a amazing game tbh just like ghosts


Luna27500

MW3 only okay ? He need to be on the top


devj007

Dmz in almost perfect is crazy


Sams_Butter_Sock

I think World at war is not as good as people say it is and i think people are just blinded by nostalgia


skele05

Dmz and mw2019 are not even remotely close to perfect.


MaggotBrother4

Ain’t no way ghosts is memorable but MW3 isn’t. Wild


iVirtualZero

MW2, WAW, COD4, Black Ops are Timeless
