It truly is a shame how quickly this once-promising reboot series has been driven into the ground and its playerbase's goodwill tarnished by Activision's greedy business practices, Infinity Ward's tonedeaf writing (the members of Task Force 141 are iconic and they deserve better than to be treated like the cast of a low-budget capeshit TV series), and consistently-asinine design choices complete with yet-another obnoxious UI. Hopefully this shit finally comes to an end soon with Bobby Kotick no-longer at the helm but I wouldn't count on it.

The only redeeming quality about this entry is that the vast majority of its maps are lifted directly from the seminal 2009 version of Modern Warfare 2, but I'm really annoyed that the previous game's maps don't carry-over given that they now share the same client and gobble-up an insane amount of storage space.
