Funny / Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019)

Unmarked spoilers below.

---

• This is definitely stepping more into Dead Baby Comedy territory (literally), but if the player kills the baby multiple times during "Clean House", the typical "Children are non-combatants" failure message will end up getting replaced by the game itself scolding you, by saying "Are you serious?" and kick you out of the mission. Someone must've been playing too much Fallout.
  • Should you throw a grenade at the baby, the game will instantly skip to the "are you serious?" and the ejection.
• Alex's joke to Farah during "Highway of Death" actually gets a chuckle from her:
  Alex: Laughter is the best medicine.
  Farah: Tell me a joke.
  Alex: What happens when the CIA goes to sleep?
  Farah: [bracing herself] What...?
  Alex: They go undercover...
  Farah: [snorts] Not bad.
  Alex: Probably better in English.
  Farah: You told it in English.
• Also more in the Black Comedy sector, when Nikolai hits The Butcher with his van to stop him from running.
  Nikolai: It's hard to run with concussion, no?
  Price: Nah, it's only a scratch. Get him in the fucking van.
• During the Butcher's interrogation, if you aim the gun at Price and pull the trigger without any bullets loaded, he'll simply flash you a cheeky smile and quip;
  Price: Would be a shame if that was loaded, wouldn't it?
• In the final Modern Warfare fight against Barkov, you can pull out a gun and shoot Barkov instead of doing the dramatic Modern Warfare ending of a cutscene battle. It makes the serious situation hilarious because of the Why Don't You Just Shoot Him? effect.
  • If you don't do anything and just keep hiding, you can hear Barkov losing his shit. Highlights of this include:
    • Trying to get Moscow to send Spetsnaz backup to the factory. It is clear that they want absolutely nothing to do with him, and the operator at the other end just hung up on him mid-rant.
    • Followed by him announcing to his dying men on the ground that he is safe and is providing overwatch from aboard a helicopter.
    • Sending security to the furnace, but the door is locked because of Alex. He then threatens to have the poor bastard at the other end of the line shot at Red Square if he doesn't get it open. Never mind he's just been dismissed by the Kremlin a few seconds ago.
    • Contacting HQ to send backup... they also want nothing to do with him.
    • Trying to contact the pilot multiple times but he's not responding.
  • When he does see Farah, and she somehow survives Barkov trying to shoot her, you get this banter:
    Barkov: [mid-reloading a revolver] Argh! What imbecile issues a pistol with only six fucking rounds!?
    Farah: Don't they let you carry a bigger gun, General!? [it’s the same gun he looted from her in a previous mission]
• For whatever reason, every single Juggernaut suit has a music player that blasts heavy metal into their user's ears. And before you ask, it is indeed In-Universe: You can faintly hear it if you get close enough to a friendly Juggernaut.
• Depending on certain multiplayer maps where either Coalition or Allegiance team arrives in a van, one couldn't help but wonder: what does the guy that opens the door to let you out do all day? His only job seems to be there to open the backdoors so that operators inside the vehicle could get out...and then he just nonchalantly climbs right back inside, shuts the door, and spends the whole match doing god-knows-what in the back cabin. Also, the van doesn't have a driver.
• The Season 2 skin bundles for Zane and Azur allows you to perform finishing moves on your enemies with a cinder block, one has to wonder how do the operators carry that huge block throughout the match.
• The new Gunfight map Trench has an Easter Egg inside of it, correlating to the secret bunkers in Warzone. Around the map, you can find numbers scratched into various surfaces and these numbers change at random with every match. Shooting the numbers on the keypad corresponding to the access code will open the bunker doors, where you'll find a bunch of teddy bears and stuffed animals making war preparations. But that's not all: there's a locked door within the bunker, and a code near one of the telephones in the room. If you input that number into the access panel, you will get a confirmation message again and one of the phones will ring. When you answer it, the caller will immediately hang up and the door will open to reveal... a giant teddy bear with Juggernaut armor! That fires dual miniguns that can actually kill you and then explodes!
• The Velikan Pew Pew finishing move, because he kills a man WITH HIS INVISIBLE GUN!
• The Season 4 trailer, the Shadows blow open the stadium roof. Badass right? They could have just opened the roof using the switch. You know the one real sporting stadiums have in case of bad weather?
