Current YouTube game streamer, Dr Disrespect, has quit playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 after only a couple of days. The streaming star started grinding Modern Warfare 2 after it launched at the end of October, but on stream got enough of the game and decided to uninstall it in the middle of a gaming session with fellow streamers.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is Activision's latest title in the leading first-person shooter franchise. It is a reimagining of the 2009 game under the same name but follows a story that continues from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare from a few years back. The game's single-player campaign was released as Early Access more than a week ago, but MW2's multiplayer experience became available only at the official release on November 9.
Dr Disrespect installed Modern Warfare 2 on the first day of the release, as did many Call of Duty fans and streamers alike. Two days ago, he had been streaming the game on YouTube for hours and was joined by fellow streamers, including TimTheTatman. As he's playing a Domination game on Mercado Los Almas, he gets killed and proceeds to state that he's done. His buddies on the voice chat assume that he is done for the day - after all, it is 6 hours into the stream. Instead, he says that he is uninstalling the game.
TimTheTatman says on the stream that it was actually longer than he thought it take for Dr Disrespect to switch games. After three days of streaming and more than 20 hours clocked, Dr Disrespect opens up Steam and in the stream's view uninstalls the game. TimTheTatman has himself had some reservations about the Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer, which might have something to do with him realizing Dr Disrespect wouldn't enjoy playing the game.
The stream continues even after the rage-quit and uninstalling of Modern Warfare 2. The two-time explains to his buddies that he wants to have fun and will be playing Overwatch 2, instead. The rest of the stream, for another hour or so, he continues to play Blizzard's newly announced shooter with his seemingly favorite character, the powerful DPS hero Sojourn.
Dr Disrespect considers Call of Duty one of his favorite series, but he's had a lot to say about this iteration of the game. Perhaps that is because his own game studio Midnight Society is developing its own first-person shooter, Deadrop. According to the Doc, Deadrop's shooting range looks already better than MW2's, even though the game is still in early development.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is currently available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
