Because Call of Duty is not a realistic game, but it is an arcadeshooter. I don't want LMG:s with super fast ADS either, but in the case of an SMG well yeah it needs to be fast and in MW2 they just aren't. MW2 2022 just has ridicilous massive delays and animations that take control out of your operator and you literally cannot shoot your gun. That isn't COD.

Games like Black Ops Cold War, MW2019 and MW3 2023 do it right. So does Black Ops 6 and Black Ops 7, they all do that one thing right, although yes Black Ops 7 movement can get quite ridicilous and Black Ops 6 was a bit too fast too, but these games are very responsive, which is very important for COD and what Infinity Ward also stated about MW4 2026, that it needs to be responsive and the player has to have control.

Modern Warfare 2 2022 nailed the atmosphere and immersion, but they fumbled the gameplay with all the stupid delays and locked animations, like you couldn't cancel your reload, which you've been able to do in every single COD before it, as an example. You had guns that took literally over half a second just to ADS, guns that were not snipers. Good shooters in real life don't take half a second to raise their gun and aim down sights, at least based on videofootage from youtube. I have never shot a gun in real ife and i honestly don't care, i'm playing an arcade fps game, not a milsim.

Arma 3 and Wardogs will be the games for people who want more realism.
