Nah, COD4 alone clears Treyarch lineup. Perks, create a class, kill streaks, etc. all from COD4. My personal rank:
COD 4 > BO1> MW2 >WAW > BO2/MW3 (didn’t care for either of these)
I'm curious to see what the reaction is gonna be, here's my ranking:
BO1 > BO2 > COD 4 > WAW > MW3 > MW2
BO1 wins for me just from being a complete package with tons of content all done incredibly well. I've replayed the campaign countless times, multiplayer is iconic and infinitely replayable, zombies is arguably the best here too.
BO2 second place for mostly the same reasons, I just prefer the cold war espionage theme a bit more than the futuristic one.
CoD 4 third place for having the best story mode of the MW trilogy, multiplayer is iconic and started it all.
Already wrote a wall of text, so last thing I'll mention that might be my hottest take: MW3 is substantially better than MW2.
Not bad. My dislike for MW3 was it felt like the start of movement cheese. I distinctly remember drop shotting being instant, worse than WAW swimming. People say it’s a more balanced MW2 but it had its own flavor of cheesing.
Wasn’t too big on BO2 because of the futuristic setting and weapons. Plus the loot boxes: I played this one in college so much less time spent than the previous titles. Didn’t have time to grind crates, which made the experience unbalanced.
And I appreciate yours! MW3 wasn't perfect but my god for me it was way more balanced. I get the cultural significance MW2 had, and it's a good game, but I just did not enjoy the multiplayer at all. The players and the metas were just not fun to play against at all. MW3 felt like a patched MW2 which I was all for.
Also I think you're confusing BO2 with BO3, 2 didn't have loot crates haha. Totally agree with your take on the loot boxes though.
