    Very similar to my fav ps4 cod (back ops 3) but somehow I just couldn't get into it. I think it was mainly the maps that bored me.

    The story was alright except we never find out why the enemy is trying to take over earth. I was waiting to hear their reasons but was never told. That annoyed me. Also character getting killed didn't effect me in anyway since we never really got invested in them and their deaths just came out of no where.

    The jet sections seem like they would be fun but it was hard to evade anything which end up making it annoying to have to do.

    Multiplayer still has that issue of only being good for run 'n gunners. It was not good for anyone with any other types of play styles.

    Zombie mode......It was interesting with the 80s theme but it's still the same. Keeps going long and gets boring after a while with others yell at you trying to get the high score.

    Overall it was best to rent then buy. I heard some saying it's just like BO3 but I didn't play that. I was not able to try MW remastered and I doubt they will release it separately.    … Expand

    The last 2 games were surprisingly decent and good. But this one brought it back down for me. I was only interested in the campaign because of Kit Harrington being a huge Game of Thrones fan, and the story was actually decent. But then came the multiplayer which is a complete joke.

    Call Of Duty Infinite Warfare's awfully paced campaign is made up for by good level design, however the multiplayer, while fun has very above average maps with little going on besides combat and weapons that feel painfully similar

    1. Single player campaign (no co-op, unlike BO3).
    2. Zombies. 3. Multiplayer, as usual. If you're after content, then you're in luck. However, that's where most of the good news ends. I don't know where to start...

    If you're after content, then you're in luck.

    However, that's where most of the good news ends. I don't know where to start...

    Okay, single player campaign was boring. No amazing plot twists, no humongous discoveries, basically nothing new. It's very pedestrian, which is sad. I played on Veteran, without a walkthrough guide, and it took well over 10 hours to finish it. On easy difficulty it'll probably take 5-6 hours.

    Zombies - I have to admit, I prefer IW zombies to BO3 zombies. But it's still nowhere as fun as either WAW or BO1 zombies, by a mile.

    Multiplayer - this is where I have real issues...

    * Everyone seems to be made of paper - it doesn't matter which gun you use, it takes just a split second to kill someone. At least in BO3, core modes were just that - core, not hardcore. You stood a chance of escaping a gunfight if you were quick. Not so IW - one bullet doesn't graze you, it kills you. This allows noobs to just fire and throw grenades randomly to get cheap kills. Definitely equip Blast Shield to get past the grenade spamming in MP.

    * The Pick 10 system is screwed up. At least in previous CODs, equipping 2 tacticals would use up 2 slots... now it uses 3 slots.

    * There seem to be fewer scorestreaks, and none of them are exciting (BO3's RAPS were great fun).

    * As for the wall-running and thrust jumping, I don't have an issue with that. It started in AW, then improved upon in BO3. IW's is smooth, but I feel it's better implemented in BO3.

    * All in all, MP is nowhere near as fun as in BO3 (or MWr for that matter). Maybe I'm biased, but Treyarch did MP much better. Heck, even AW had better MP because it was beginner-friendly (you could increase points needed to get scorestreaks, which meant the score wouldn't reset on death); Ghosts did something similar for beginners.

    I didn't expect a lot, but I really had fun playing the campaign. The story is the typical hero story full of stereotypes and patriotism, but nevertheless, it delivered. A lot of weapons, upgrades and even sidemissions - all in 60fps.

    So after the campaign I tried the multiplayer and guess what: it was also fun. Actually, it still is a lot of fun. Its a really solid shooter and I don't get the hate. You can hate the company for releasing a very similar game every year, but its still solid. My personal highlight of the game is the Zombie mode, where you fight off hordes of zombies like in Left 4 Dead. I even purchased the season pass to get the additional 4 Zombie maps.

    Finally, it can be said, that the game is, in its core, still a COD game. i'd give it a 7,5 because after weeks, I'm still hooked. My advice: if you like fast paced shooters and its about 30 bucks, get it. You won't regret it.    … Expand

The core gameplay, level design, and AI is also great making it one of the most fun Call of Duty campaigns I've played in a long time. From the fluid movement system as a soldier to flying a jackal in space, this campaign has it all. The multiplayer is decent. Its basically Black Ops 3 multiplayer, which I wasn't a big fan of because of the boost jumping and wall running. Also its pay to win because of supply drops which I don't appreciate. The new zombies mode is pretty cool, but doesn't compare to Treyarch zombies. I played it for a bit and had fun but can't see myself continuing to play it like Treyarch zombies. All around, its a good Call of Duty game. The multiplayer and zombies are decent, but its really in the campaign where it shines. The campaign is easily one of my favourites. I really feel bad for Infinity Ward, they crafted a really beautiful campaign that most people probably won't ever end up playing. If anyone is looking for a great single player experience specifically, I would definitely recommend picking Infinite Warfare up. Peace to the fallen.… Expand

    Infinite Warfare is a good game, but it certainly is a let down from the previous installment. The movement is completely stripped down from Black Ops 3 and doesn't work out for Infinite Warfare. The space theme is good. The zombies is stupid and serious enough to enjoy but ignore that and its a pretty good zombies experience. The Campaign is now one of the best Call of Duty campaigns. It was great and was much more innovative from the previous titles. One thing I was disappointed to hear was that call of duty ghosts 2 didn't release, leaving us with a cliffhanger.    … Expand

    There is very little to none backstory to the SDF enemy forces, including Kit H and Connor's character and it makes them very 2D and non memorable. KIT H's character sounds like a typical NAZI cookie cutter character. Also I don't feel attached to the main character Ryes.

    I think the biggest let down was not taking full advantage of the wall running and sliding mechanics like Titanfall 2. The FPS shooting action does get a bit generic, but the air space combat is refreshing and also very fun similar to old Freelancer game on PC back in the 1990s.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. My issues with the COD series really started during MW2, I played Black Ops, then a bit of MW3 then stopped.

    Here is the issues I have with this current "Adaption" on the series.
    The campaign is pretty bland, they tried adding some "In game" extras that remind me alot of Starcraft 2 but they fell short. The audio is pretty horrendous. I had to hook up my head set just hear speeches by Kit Harrington because my surround sound just sounded like garbled junk.
    The main villain which is portrayed by Kit, goes out like a **** No big boss fight, just basically a cut scene where you mess him up with a robot. And turns out his death meant almost nothing. Vs Kevin Spacey where I actually had mixed emotions over killing the guy in the previous title (Which I just played the campaign).

    Now here is the issues I have with Mulitplayer.
    The maps are small, extremely small, you will constantly be spawn killed no matter you play other than Search and Destroy. Again this is an issue dating back to MW2, sniping in this game is garbage, but it's even WORSE than previous titles. It seems every gun is laser accurate at any distance, making sniping utterly worthless. And again the maps are small so there is very little opportunity to make the sniper class work.

    If you love running and gunning mindlessly then you will LOVE this game, equip an assault rifle, and have at it.

    All and all if you want a really fun game I'd recommend Battlefield 1 over this game ANY TIME.    … Expand

    As a whole package, all the praise should be going toward the single player experience, and I'd never thought I'd say that about a Call of Duty game in a long time. But in all honestly, it’s true. As for the multiplayer, it makes for an incredibly mundane and subpar experience that almost parodies itself. Completely making it very difficult to recommend the game as a whole.

    Good old Infinity Ward is back and not just with Modern Warfare Remastered! The single player campaign (the best in years!) alone is enough to give Infinite Warfare a chance. Just like with Doom and Titanfall 2 I expected nothing from the game and was shocked with how good it turned out to be. [13/2016, p.34]
