Review of the Multiplayer on the Free Weekend:
I was curious after years of not playing Call of Duty (the last one I actually spent more than an hour in at a friend's house being Black Ops 2) how the multiplayer actually feels to play.
And I got major league addicted.
The animations are slick and procedural, it looks stunning yet runs a smooth 60 on my mid-spec hardware even at 100+ FOV, the movement has that reasonable depth with sliding and diving, and the guns feel viscerally fun to shoot.
And the clusterfuck on Shipment where at the end I just ran around with a combat knife, a ballistic shield and semtex was the most fun that I had in a video game this year.

As a timewaster you can zone out in while listening to a podcast, it's pure gold, but with an annual franchise I question how long you actually get to have fun with this game until the servers get shut off or the playerbase becomes tiny.
