This is the first CoD I haven't bought since #2 and watching the game on stream I think I made the right choice, it looks so generic. I really don't rate CoD highly anymore unless it's a Treyarch game.

Titanfall 2 has been scratching my COD style itch very comfortably recently so I don't feel the need to get this right now, but if I can get some kind of bargain for this and MW together I might pick it up. Will probably be next year I'm guessing unless there's some great Black Friday sale on it.

Worst case scenario: the campaign is disappointing but still not as bad as BO3, the multiplayer is blah, and then I just go buy Titanfall 2 to get my futuristic shooter fix.

It's a little disconcerting that some of the campaign impressions seem relatively lukewarm so far, especially given the disappointing sentiment surrounding the multiplayer beta. Was hoping Infinity Ward would nail the single-player component, but seems like this might not be the case after all?

I have TF2 and BF1 and I'm just not sure why I should get this. I feel like all bases are covered.

That OT worries me. Didn't BLOPS 3 which I never played have a pretty disapppointing campaign? That's all I want from this game.

Not digging MWR multiplayer, but then I never was super into it back in the day either. Just feels so AR heavy.

15 more minutes and it's IW time.

IGN preview was not too kind to the singleplayer and with the multiplayer getting a bad reception after the beta I'm really curious how this is going to go. Also doesn't help when you are following three really good shooters in Gears, Titanfall, and Battlefield.

I feel that the multiplayer is already bleh on a fundamental level and there's not much that could fix that (my impressions from the beta), and I highly doubt it's campaign will be as good as Titanfall 2's, especially after Ghosts. Unless you really like Modern Warfare, there isn't much reason to get this if you have Titanfall 2 and BF1. I'm personally really disappointed because I wanted to like it. I just didn't like how any of the movement options felt and the maps were awful. If they've actually fixed the multiplayer from the beta, then I'll bite later down the line.

I also have both TF2 and BF1. I know comparing it to a beta isn't the most fair thing in the world, but I think because it's so close to release, it's fair. Titanfall 2 is so much better. The wallrunning, jumping and sliding all feels better and the maps fit the movement so much more than IW's maps fit it's movement.

That's just my opinion.

I can't believe I bought this. Mp is trash, put a few hours into it and don't have the urge to ever come back. Look forward to playing the campaign and then modern warefare remastered.

Then you will most likely enjoy it. Map design is trash IMO, way too many ways to come at people, constantly get shot in the back too. Maybe I'm just tired but first impressions are not good ones for me.

Checked in on IGN's IW campaign review in progress, which starts off, well, it starts off like this:

IGN said:
2016 has been one of the best years for single-player shooter campaigns of the past decade. We’ve seen Doom, Titanfall 2, Gears of War 4, Battlefield 1, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided… and they're all better than Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare’s campaign.

Gotta admit its refreshing to see reviews that get right to the point.

Is there a review thread going up?

Yeah that was my initial impression of the beta too. No matter where I went, someone was always right behind me. Maybe better map knowledge will help though.

Fucking Xbox One. Pre-ordered the game last month, tried to play it at 11:02 PM and get greeted by a "Infinite Warfare needs to update - 50GBs". Try to play Modern Warfare remastered and get "Modern Warfare Remastered needs to update - 45GB"

So no CoD tonight. Xbox One ruins another midnight launch.

Those IGN impressions weren't so hot. I was thinking of getting this for the campaign, but I'm gonna pass for now. I didn't like the beta and I'm honestly not that interested in going back to Modern Warfare.

I have Titanfall 2 and Battlefield 1 so I think I'm good for a long time.

Frontlines? Only played that once but it was people camped outside the spawns.

Was never a problem in the beta. You're team must have been useless.

Just read the Six Axis review. Seems like a good game but I don't understand their complaint about MP feeling too much the same as last years COD and referring to that as a negative.

As someone who has purchased every COD since MW so far...I will probably bite on this but I feel so damn lukewarm about it.

I looooovvveeedd BLOPS3 multiplayer, but feel like Infinity Ward shit the bed on MW3 and especially on Ghosts. Hoping that after the weak beta impressions the release MP experience is worthwhile.

I may end up jumping on Titanfall 2 for something different, but I appreciate that COD still offers split-screen online MP so I can couch co-op with my buddy.

It's interesting to read all this praise for the campaign after both IGN and Eurogamer's tepid responses to it. It does look and sound super interesting, but I think Titanfall 2 should suffice for my futuristic FPS fix for now.

Enjoyed this one IMMENSELY more than Titanfall. And I liked that one.

back to back plays of the betas really put titanfall 2 out front. the movement in iw feels so tacked on. mw remastered is probably the only hold out of this title, right?
