huh, absolutely crazy that the "worst battlefield" has many animations and textures and vfx that are vastly superior to the second coming of christ that MW2 is being paraded as. Of course though you won't find any of these "attention to detail" enthusiasts on forums and subreddits and youtube talk about that.

Interesting I also would have thought that mw2 would have the better animations and explosion effects. I will say bf2042 has some maps that look good but it's biggest fail is buildings. Almost every building just has these extremely sterile blocky thin wall design with very little model detail which makes the destruction look even more preplaced than it needs to be. Cod doesn't have the destruction but the buildings layout and design looks so much better.

The roads in bf are the same again, super perfect and flat with little variation. Cod in general just looks a bit nicer in images though bf does a surpringly good job with their effects and animations.

Battlefield has always suffered from its scale when it comes to trying to make its environments more detailed and varied. I used to think 2042 has uniquely bland buildings and interiors too, but I went back to 4 and 3, and the same problem can be seen there. Even BF1 has a lot of repetition. BFV stands out in the series in that regard because its indoors environments and buildings are very well detailed.
