A Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 player has managed a seemingly impossible Kill to Death ratio after days of play time registered without a single kill. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, and the franchise as a whole, is famous for the amount of fast-paced action that often results in multiple deaths per match.
While the Modern Warfare franchise takes place in a realistic setting, the online component is anything but realistic. With players running and gunning in all directions across the various game modes, and even pulling off Jason Bourne style moves to take down helicopters, chances of survival are slim in the kill or be killed world of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2’s online mode.
That is not the case for Reddit user Pilgore1, who has shared a screenshot of their Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer combat record. At the time of posting, the player has racked up a total playtime of 2 days, 23 hours, and 24 minutes across 429 games played. During that nearly 72 hour play time, a time akin to completing a Souls game, Pilgore1 has managed a perfect 0.00 Kill to Death ratio, declaring “Pacifism is a legitimate strategy.” The strategy may not be as viable in the upcoming hardcore mode in Modern Warfare 2 Season 2.
Commenters asked Pilgore1 what their favorite game mode is, and they confirmed that Hardpoint is their go-to for their play style. Other commenters posted to say that the game mode fits the play style, especially if using a riot shield and a lot of molotovs or smoke bombs. Using a shield would have been extra beneficial while a riot shield bug was making Modern Warfare 2 players seemingly invincible. Pilgore1 confirmed in another comment that they have been using a shield as well as a light machine gun, also implying that they have been shooting UAVs by saying “Nothing stays in the sky for long.”
Elsewhere, an unlucky Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 player accidentally died due to a missile meant for a UAV. Luckily for Pilgore1 and their pacifist run, they were not involved in the event. This kind of unlucky hit does go to further emphasize the chaos in a typical Call of Duty multiplayer match, and thus how much effort it must take to ensure such a clean record after the long play time garnered.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
