Two snipers pin down a player in the multiplayer of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare . But just when the situation seems almost hopeless, the victim unexpectedly and spectacularly strikes back.
This is what the community loves: Players and fans on Reddit adore spectacular clips of CoD: MW or Call of Duty: Warzone. And whether it’s for example
- a cool bug that turns Modern Warfare into a third-person shooter
- a noteworthy knife throw that decides an entire match
- or an enemy begging for mercy and turning against his team
there is no shortage of such videos in the community. Time and again, players capture funny mishaps, curiosities, or spectacular performances and post them for everyone’s amusement. And currently, such a video is once again causing a stir among thousands of fans.
“Like in Duel – Enemy at the Gates”
This is currently being celebrated by thousands: Recently, the user KevinDeBrownie posted a fresh clip on the discussion platform that is being celebrated by many players. After almost 16 hours, the 28-second-long video already has 5,000 upvotes.
In a multiplayer match of Modern Warfare (Ground War), he is being shot at by 2 snipers on a remote roof. He himself is also playing as a sniper.
He barely manages to take cover behind a concrete barricade. But in this seemingly hopeless situation, something follows that could easily be from a Hollywood movie.
KevinDeBrownie spots a bullet hole about the size of a tennis ball in the thick roadblock. Then he grabs his own sniper rifle and takes out the 2 lurking enemy snipers on the roof through this narrow opening. But see for yourself:
This is what the players say: Most of the commenting users are thrilled and congratulate KevinDeBrownie on his “Big Brain Play”. The fact that he didn’t panic, but calmly and thoughtfully took out the other snipers, is well received.
Particularly for the noteworthy way he did it, he receives much praise and compliments. Many are reminded of a scene from the action film “Duel – Enemy at the Gates” with Jude Law, where a young Russian sniper took out several Wehrmacht soldiers in precisely the same way – through a small opening in a well wall.
Here you can watch the scene for comparison. But be careful, it is not suitable for younger audiences. The film is rated 16 and older in Germany, so younger readers should refrain from watching the clip:
By the way, some note that these shots would not have been possible in reality because the hole for aiming and shooting simultaneously is simply too small, but that doesn’t detract from the overall mood. At the same time, the love for detail is praised, as many generally did not think it possible to shoot through this small hole.
