Been disappointed with every cod since mw2 wondering if i should buy

its not as good as mw2

Cod is always similar each year. So if you are disappointed by the previous ones, it will be the same with ghost.

I like the flow of the game
it feels like mw2 kind of with the gun control / flow of aiming and running
as for the maps / spawns.. they are pretty difficult to get use to so far (i'm only lvl 17 though haven't played much)

decent game i like it

Well I guess since I'm sitting here procrastinating I'll tell you my pros and cons thus far..

Cons:
- AR's run the game, the only viable SMG that I have found is the K7 which is pretty useless at long range.
- Bad spawns, constant spawn kills even in TDM which doesn't make sense for the map sizes.
- No small maps (obviously an opinion)
- Unlock system is really bad, probably better in the higher levels but I'm at level 15 and I don't feel like I've unlocked anything at all.
- Guard dogs bug the shit out of me, I would have no problem with them if they took 2-3 bullets like in other cods. They have more health than people. Probably gonna get raged at for this one.
- No regular search and destroy or headquarters, which have been my favorite modes for years.
- Shotguns are pretty worthless.
- Not a fan of the perk system, but most people seem to like it.

Pros:
- Overall smoothness of the game, hard to explain for those who haven't played
- Extinction is great, a lot better than zombies.
- Killstreaks don't seem overly abundant like in BO2, MW3, etc.
- Sniping is really fun
- Really not a single map that I don't like (obviously an opinion)
- Squad Vs. Squad matches are pretty fun, seems to be a love it or hate it kinda thing.
- Cranked and Blitz
- New knifing animation isn't lame as fuck anymore.
- Camos are more fun to get, different things you have to do for each one.
- No more OP as fuck sidearms, although I would prefer to take out launchers and the PDW and go back to the traditional style where your only sidearm can be a pistol.
- Somewhat interactive maps
- Field orders (small thing, but pretty fun to pursue them)
- Grenades don't kill people unless they're standing on it (good or bad to some)
- Under barrel grenade launchers finally take away your lethal, like in cod4.
- Most gun oriented cod in awhile, not based around killstreaks and OP explosives.

For the cons:

Guard dog will probably be fixed one day... It has 3x more life than the humans. It take 1 bullet of sniper to kill so eone, 3 on the dog lol.
Small maps: there will be small maps in map packs probably
AR's: most of them will be nerfed
Spawns: what game modes you guys doing to complain about spawns ? Im doing dominations and there is nothing wrong with the spawn.

AR's will be here to stay, it's IW. They might nerf it after their 2015 release. As for spawns it's been every mode for me, although I've really only played tdm. Tdm should never have bad spawns due to their being no objective that would cause unfair advantages by spawning too close or too far away. The spawns are overall just strange and bad. I've spawned in the same buildings as people before. Last night I spawned in the 2nd story of a building, I turned right and killed 3 people in the same room as me. Spawns have been bad in some of the previous games but I've never really seen anything like this. I think that will be one of the first major things they update.

I'm digging it so far, but as mentioned before, the 2 things that are really annoying: spawns and dogs.

Playing some ffa, get shot from behind. Watched the killcam, he spawned 2 feet behind me, hip fired as soon as he spawned.

Hardcore tdm, 10 shots to the dome of a dog, still not dead... ô.o Until they fix this, learn to time the knife as they lunge. They will probably make this require more kills in the future as well.... I hope anyways.

Engine / netcode = might be one of the best out of any cod. Game feels great, hit detection is great!

Maps & spawns = might be the worst out of any cod. I can somewhat chalk the bad maps up to the fact that I don't know them like the back of my hand yet. As far as spawns, they really do need work.

Overall I'm enjoying it so far, most of what brad & Jake said I agree with.


P.s. miss you wigy, you were mad fun to play with back in the day
