Short and sweet, this one. Played a few campaign and enough multiplayer to hit 36 as of now. As a very competitive gamer, I loved seeing ranked play to remind me of my blops high ranking master tier days, but I was disappointed. It seems ranked is just 4 tryhards who clearly have no lives (seriously, 5th prestige. It's been two days. Dude. Go outside.) against anyone that joins. That's for qualifications of course, but like any ELO system, you'll be stuck there forever. There is no benefit to individual performance. Game modes are random, so you can't even play FFA.
Controls: Pretty bad. You can at least toggle the aim assist, which is nice, but the ADS sensitivity being different from the non-ADS has completely ruined this game. No single game that's had them different (and as horridly scaled as this) has been fun to play. Two different sliders or just use the same mechanics that you've used for....7 games? Why change what works?
Suit abilities! Movement: Shit. Absolute, halo-esque shit. It's not CoD, and it's trying to be better, but it's somehow worse. I get on for a few games because I just want to shoot shit without worrying about anything sometimes, but this is just stupid.
I'm not sure why every game thinks they need to evolve and add fucking power suits and super jumps and slides and booster packs and whatever other bullshit, but it needs to stop. WW2 shooters and contemporarilly (yes, word) accurate (without thermal-sight super tracking hero shit that doesn't actually happen outside of special forces in the military) shooters are still the most fun to me, because there's no....junk. There's no filler. It's who can shoot better. CS:GO has capitalized on this. Their entire franchise is based around whoever is more accurate, wins. Call of duty? It used to be whoever sees the other person first.
Now? Whoever hasn't already died from some random wrist-rocket grenade or being blown up by a ridiculous killstreak (want to shoot it down? Too bad, there's fucking sky-high buildings or trees everywhere. Every map. Leave the stinger in the armory.) is put into a mecha-type joust, where you're both shooting and jet-packing in different directions, all while attempting to move your weapon ADS, which simply isn't possible because it still takes 2 seconds for a 360 on max sensitivity.
For any fanboy response:
Is this biased? No. This is my opinion. I've played every CoD, probably over 50 days game time. It's still shit, I play it because it's easy and my KDR is always ~3.
Do I hate every game? Most. Destiny? Shit. Halo? after 3, shit. Battlefield? Shit. I've played all, and have a good experience. This isn't some play two match and rank post, it's accurate based on an experienced. competitive FPS player's point of view.
