Modern Warfare dev responds to Ninja slamming Gunfight changes A Modern Warfare developer has responded to criticism from popular Mixer streamer, Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins, in a Tweet posted on December 15. As with any major popular title, Modern Warfare has faced its fair share of backlash from casual players, pros and popular streamers alike in the time since its release. Ninja has added himself to that list of names, calling out Activision for a change that they made to the Gunfight game mode. Having found a game he can grind alongside Fortnite, Ninja can often be seen on stream playing Modern Warfare with the likes of Tim \u2018TimTheTatman\u2019 Betar and Jack \u2018CouRage\u2019 Dunlop. More often than not, they\u2019ll play Gunfight \u2014 a one-life, 2v2 mode that is new to the Call of Duty franchise. But Ninja isn\u2019t happy with the changes they\u2019ve made to it. In a Tweet posted on December 15, Ninja expressed his concern relating to the \u201cridiculous\u201d and \u201cunnecessary\u201d changes that Activision have made. I feel like Gunfight was one of the best game modes to grace FPS in the last decade. It\u2019s really unfortunate that Activision is making so many ridiculous unnecessary changes to the game mode. \u2014 Ninja (@Ninja) December 16, 2019 The change Ninja is referring to likely pertains to the Gunfight OSP game mode, in which you spawn without any weapons and have to pick them up around the map \u2014 as opposed to the usual Gunfight, where you spawn in with a set class. David Mickner, a multiplayer designer at Infinity Ward, soon responded to Ninja explaining the decision, where he explained that it isn\u2019t a permanent fixture and that \u201cnormal Gunfight\u201d will be back in the playlist soon. Normal Gunfight will be back soon, but I\u2019ll use this as ammunition to keep it around the next time we run a limited time mode variation of it \ud83d\ude09 \u2014 David Mickner (@DavidMickner) December 16, 2019 Ninja responded simply saying \u201cI love you\u201d \u2014 clearly impressed with Mickner\u2019s commitment to bringing variation to the game but happy that Gunfight will be returning back to normal. How often they\u2019ll change to limited-time modes isn\u2019t yet clear, but it\u2019s fair to say that Ninja will be hoping that it doesn\u2019t happen again for a while.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
