CoD players delighted as Modern Warfare 2 leaks hint towards long-awaited movement change ActivisionCall of Duty players have responded positively after Modern Warfare 2 leaks hinted towards a major movement change for the series, potentially removing the much maligned slide-cancelling mechanic. Despite the mixed to positive reception of Modern Warfare 2019, fans are incredibly excited for Modern Warfare 2, Infinity Ward\u2019s highly-anticipated sequel set in Colombia amid conflict with the nation\u2019s drug cartels. That is partially because of the poor reception received by CoD: Vanguard, but also because of the plethora of new features we\u2019re expecting from MW2. Among new modes like DMZ, rumors regarding the 2022 title suggest that slide-canceling will be absent. The movement mechanic debuted in Modern Warfare but has split opinions since then. News that it might not feature has been promulgated by prominent community figures like Swagg and ZooMa and players have now responded positively. CoD players delighted at rumors MW2 won\u2019t have slide-canceling One Redditor expressed mixed feelings in an August 5 post but, in response, players were generally thrilled by the prospect of CoD minus the movement mechanic. A player replied: \u201cVery excited to see slide canceling be gone. I\u2019m all for skill gaps. It also screws up the other player\u2019s aim assist. It\u2019s nearly impossible to counter in CQB, especially with peeker\u2019s advantage. And don\u2019t even get me started on the slide canceling with a riot shield that plagued Shoot the Ship.\u201d Another commented: \u201cSlide canceling wasn\u2019t even supposed to be in MW19. They were planning on patching it and pointed out that it was an exploit. But due to how long it was taking them to fix they quietly removed it from the trello board and didn\u2019t say anything more, most likely also due to many thinking it was some great movement feature.\u201d It\u2019s obviously unconfirmed whether slide-canceling will feature in MW2, but the balance of player opinion certainly seems to be in favor of abolishing the mechanic. We expect to hear more in the near future as details on the 2022 installment pile up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
