Yeah, I pretty much agree with all of that. But I still think they make decent games.
But the compulsion with eSports is becoming too much. I don't know if David Vonderhaar is thinking it is key to maintaining longevity with the series but it is ruining their map design and MP features.
And fuck that two-round Domination. So glad it is back to normal now. The entire reason I didn't play BO2 for much length of time is that the two-round Domination ruined the mode.
It will be interesting to see what new things Sledge can bring to the table, I guess it is hard to tell what their contribution was to MP for MW3 and due to time constraints it was probably a case of fill in the missing parts of the COD template, not 'how about if we add this feature'.
I couldn't agree more.
