Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Cross-Play Can't Be Disabled On ... (GameSpot)

Games with cross-play support generally offer the ability to toggle it off, since some console players might not want to play with PC players using mouse and ...

If you want to disable cross-play at a system level on Xbox, you can follow these steps: For some unknown reason, this option in Modern Warfare 2 is only available to PS5 and PS4 players, meaning Xbox and PC players are stuck being lumped into cross-play lobbies until developer Infinity Ward makes a change. Cross-play allows players on all platforms to compete in the same matches, which can benefit matchmaking times given how much larger the pool of players is.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 lacks option to disable cross-play on ... (Polygon)

Activision's shooter sequel is missing the feature on Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC — but PS4 and PS5 users still have it. Some players prefer to switch ...

However, PlayStation players [do have the option](https://www.eurogamer.net/xbox-and-pc-players-cant-disable-crossplay-in-modern-warfare-2) to turn cross-play off. One potential solution is input-based matchmaking, which attempts to match players with others using the same control method. Debate rages over which camp has an advantage: PC players, with fast keyboard and mouse controls and potentially faster frame rates, or console players, who play with controllers and aim assist.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2: Best Guns and Loadouts (Den of Geek)

Activision Blizzard is currently under investigation following accusations of harassment, discrimination, and fostering a hostile work environment.

As such, the best thing to do is to pair this weapon with any perks that increase your character or firing speed. Now, you will need to have (nearly) perfect aim in order to take advantage of this gun’s capabilities, but anyone who puts the time into this gun will be laughing at its absurd power potential. You won’t be able to do much of anything from a distance with this gun, but you will be able to melt through anyone that you get the drop on. Indeed, we’re already seeing quite a few people insist that this is the absolute best gun in Modern Warfare 2 at the moment, and there’s certainly a strong argument to be made for that lofty claim. Loadouts are arguably more important than ever in Modern Warfare 2 thanks to the game’s revamped Gunsmith and Perk systems. Another SMG option for those who don’t want to bow down to the MP5 quite yet, the Kastov-74u is basically a portable AK-47. Yes, the MP5 will outperform this gun in certain close-quarter situations, but the FSS Hurricane allows you to win a lot more mid-range fights. It takes some getting used to in the current landscape, but it might be worth the effort in the long run. In fact, as a semi-auto battle rifle that lacks the speed of guns, it might feel like an objectively bad gun to many players. Speaking of “Time to Kill,” it should be noted that some players think the powerful Lachmann 556 just might boast the fastest TTK in Modern Warfare 2. Modern Warfare 2 will be familiar to anyone who has played most CoD multiplayer modes in recent years, though the game does utilize a couple of notable changes that have shaken up the multiplayer meta. The M4 passes every reliability and consistency test you can put in front of it, but this is far from a boring gun.

Modern Warfare 2 menu and UI the 'absolute worst' according to fans (Metro)
