The game brings "open combat, " offering players more choices in approaching the single-player missions. Makarov returns as the chief villain of the new campaign. The newly introduced Carry Forward system will let players keep their progression and inventory from Modern Warfare II. Multiplayer fans can expect 16 maps at the launch and at least 12 coming later. Zombies mode will also return and should offer the largest zombie map to date.

Campaign is average. OCS missions are a decent concept but are clearly here due to the rushed nature of the game. Story itself feels like the first half of a full game that was made into one game.
If the matchmaking system wasn't as strict as it was, the multiplayer could be so much better. At times it feels like a WWE match: Its all scripted and the ending is predetermined. Aside from that the weapons and overall feel of the game are much better than MWII. The remastered MW2 maps generally play the same, which exemplifies the issues with some of them due to the faster nature of the game. Ground War needs attention as its the best place to avoid the matchmaking algorithm but due to lack of maps and the EMP extended play sessions can become tiring
Zombies surprised me in the sense that I expected this to be a complete disaster but instead was overall slightly above average. Server instability continues to be a problem for the mode to this day and due to the extraction mechanics of the mode can become a big pain point. Post launch support has been odd since they continue to try and evolve the endgame but most of the playerbase has not even finished act 3. More midgame content needs to be added (contracts, ways to lower cooldown timers, etc.)
This game could've been an 4 or even 4.5 if it had more time but overall enjoyed my time more than I hated it

that's why there's modern warfare 3 and III
This game is 100% dooky and I hate most of it.
It's a microtransaction store with a game attached to it, said game is plagued with glitches, the character skins from Homelander to Cheech and Chong are irritating, and the plot has gone from somewhat harrowing to the fucking MCU in terms of storytelling.
It's a terrible game I would not recommend... so why do I keep playing it? The looter shooter take on Zombies, that's really it. And even then I'd still recommend MWII's DMZ mode over this shit.

Enough bang bang please stop
Finally hit my 2.0 k/d for MP, took a hot minute cause it plummeted immensely when camo-grinding as well as deliberately reverse-boosting just to see how bad it could possibly get at low-elo (example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyftel9rSNM )
The MP this year is made for the sweatiest of tryhards (i.e. people who spend time in-between games optimizing the shit out of a loadout to create something absolutely bullshit to play against)
This means if you also like to take the game little too seriously, be prepared to play against iron sight/1x sight "quickscopers" as well as people who abuse the hell out of peeker's advantage who will laser you in sub-300ms.
That's not to say that these are the only types of players you'll come across but if you strive to be decent at this game, there is a lot of corny behavior you will come across.
Netcode being mediocre and SBMM being strict are still the same old, it is what it is.
Generally, I like it. The MP is made pretty reactionary to MWII's where the meta there was to either camp or dropshot every kill. I enjoy what SHG's doing with the MP aside from making snipers OP as shit.

after loving the first 2 installments of the reboot universe, i was very excited for this.
Campaign was to short for me but still great, the open combat mission were an interesting change from the usual campaign mission set up.
Multiplayer is at the minute good especially with the old maps coming back into the game
Spoiler
I actually cried when Soap died and still get upset everything i see it
