    Campaign is okay. JUST okay. I liked the visuals. But Multiplayer feels like it was straight ported from Black Ops 3. This is not worth it just to get MWR. Sell MWR separately please.

    Here's the deal. COD IW is not a bad game. But the competition is providing a better product with similar gameplay but with two major differences.
    - Much better level design/MP pace.
    - No microtrasanctions or pay to win. Having wasted $60 to buy this game, I'm now left a bit disappointed as I think I would rather wait for price drops or invested in other games. Let me put it this way.

    Let me put it this way. This is not the best COD title this year. Titanfall 2 is. (although it is not called COD)

    Story/Campaign: Thrilling dogfights, excellent narrative and characters along with superb level designs, makes it the best campaign for years in a COD game.
    Multiplayer: Same gameplay mechanics as BO3 and the level designs and game modes aren't as thrilling and fresh as the campaign.
    Zombies: Just like any other zombies mode in the past COD games, however some new gameplay mechanics adds

    The graphics are some of the best out of all of the COD games and the campaign is amazing but lets keep it realistic, this game is not a 10/10 nor is it a 0/0 so stop being COD and Battlefield fan boys and be realistic with your ratings.

    Shameless copy paste of blops 3, once more without feeling. Its like having the same cereal for your breakfast every morning for 10 years. Infinite warfare is a monotonous and mundane experience with subpar graphics and poor online play. Call of duty is a running joke now, it'll never be the same again. Deserves every 0 it gets. Will play the campaign on veteran and then sell. 0/10

    I cannot believe they released this game the way it is. It's a really bad clone of black ops 3 for multiplayer. AND AND AND we are back to having no dedicated servers at all! Host migration in progress...laggy **** kills when you get the drop on someone. COD is dead, please please don't buy this game like I did. I feel terrible and wish I could return it!!!

I feel like the best thing they could have done this year is just to do the Remaster with tons of extra multiplayer maps.

    Infinite Warfare is a shame to the CoD name. The story is very generic, the characters are very bland and vanilla and the multiplayer is not enjoyable at all. I was hoping they would fix certain issues after the Beta like the unnatural movement of your character and weapon recoil.

    I am someone who really enjoyed Black Ops 3. Yes it was set in the future but the major differences between Infinite Warfare and Black Ops 3 is that it was actually fun, enjoyable and just better made. This game is a step back to CoD: Ghost and we all know how bad that game was.

    I'm just gonna return this game and exchange it for Titanfall 2 or Mafia 3.

    So I have liked CoD since the start and all I can say about this game is wow. It really is a departure and in a bad way. Kill time is insanely short, maps feel like a mess and push you into corridors with so many angles to get smashed from.

The FPS seems locked to 91 on the PC (come on) This is the last CoD I buy from Infinity Ward. I may try the next Black Ops Treyarch seem to do a good job. I honestly do not see how this game has scored so highly in reviews as it is dreadful. Time to move on to something else I think. Probably will not hit a prestige on this. If you really need your fix of CoD and do not want to play BO3 then I guess it will at least give you a fix but I should only be worth £12.99 or so. It's not even a copy and paste of BO3 as it plays so much worse. Don't normally write reviews but worth signing up to write one about this as I feel like the game is so bad and people should know. Will try the campaign to see if I can get any joy out of that and maybe the remastered MW. Think these games are so big now they just make money shoving any old crap out and obviously paying reviewers for good scores. My own fault for not trying before buying. Peace!! Expand

    Очень слабая игра. Пока поиграл только в кампанию и могу сказать одно - уныло, скучно, без капли креатива. Графически игра так же выглядит значительно слабее прошлогодней Black Ops III.

    This game is a shameless exercise in releasing absolute garbage whilst adding nostalgia of Modern Warfare to make it sell.

    Let's start with this, Infinite Warfare is a turd. A huge turd floating in space that one day will put the human race at risk. Infinity Ward as a developer is now the bare bones of what they actually were when the classic games they are renown for were released.

Infinity Ward as a developer is now the bare bones of what they actually were when the classic games they are renown for were released. Them being Modern Warfare 1 & 2.

    The actual core of that team is now Respawn Entertainment that have made the criminally undersold and brilliant Titanfall 2. That is an FPS that combines a versatile Single Player with a frenetic and fantastic Multiplayer.

    Yes this game has Modern Warfare 1, but the developers who lovingly created the first game had no input into this Re-Disaster. It's almost fraud. Modern Warfare is however still fantastic game, if a bit dated, and is pretty much the only reason people have and should own this. But at what expense, when $50 worth of the full product is absolute garbage.

    Add to this the embarrassingly high sales of the BF4 WW1 skin released recently with worse guns so snipers and tanks reign supreme even more, and I fear for gaming.

Further more the game feels like a reskin of Call of Duty: Black Ops 3, but less polished. It is easy to see why Activision desided to lock Modern Warfare Remastered into the deal. You're paying 60$ plus for a game with a p2w system with variants and the despised supply drop system. The campaign is like the same old, with uninteresting enemy robots. Call of Duty was much better at being Boots on the ground, but now it looks like Activision are making P2W part of it, which is an incredible shame. Do not buy this game for you are supporting the downfall of this once great franchise, and it will share the fate of the Tony Hawk games.

    Call of Duty is dead now. All they have been doing since Black Ops 2 are futuristic shooters. It's like they took BO2, Advanced Warfare and BO3 and put all of them together and made this. EA actually listen to what the fans want and they made a great World War 1 Battlefield game. Guess I'm playing Battlefield 1 from now on

    There are no major improvements from previous games. Trying to throw space in to entice the audience doesn't work. Call of Duty made one game too many focused on the future. I'll bet they go back to the historical WW1, and 2 eras in the next two games. The future they've been sharing is a shallow story that just gets repeated.

    Zombie mode is the only redeeming quality but that can't

    As a real gamer i like to try a game first BEFORE hating it and not just because "Call Of Duty" is in the title.
    If you're like me and not played COD for a few year IW is a great way to jump back, the campaign is awesome and multiplayer lots of fun. It also comes packaged with the best FPS of all time MW1. Dont jump on the hate bandwagon, be a real gamer and try for yourself.

    Normally I start a review out with a on the spot joke that three people laugh at, but I need to say something that has been bugging me right now. If you hate Call of Duty Infinite Warfare without playing based on whatever stupid reason you can justify in your head all I can say is shut the **** up. So what if this isn’t the Call of Duty you wanted it is still an amazing game. HelloNormally I start a review out with a on the spot joke that three people laugh at, but I need to say something that has been bugging me right now. If you hate Call of Duty Infinite Warfare without playing based on whatever stupid reason you can justify in your head all I can say is shut the **** up. So what if this isn’t the Call of Duty you wanted it is still an amazing game. Hello internet folks B-rod, and I must say Call of Duty Infinite Warfare is the best game since Black Ops 2. They put a **** load of work into this game to make it great. This is what sequels are supposed to be it takes the formula that we are used to and adds upon it to make it a new game. If you just want the same FPS experience then play the same ****ing game, and let the rest of us play the new one that’ll add a new experience.

    The game story is fantastic it takes place in the year of the future ( I have no clue what year) and a war has broken out with the people living on Mars and the people of Earth. You play Generic White Man the 4th who is basically more seriously less wanting to bang everything Captian Kirk. You are going against evil Jon Snow. I joke because Kit Harington plays the villain, but even the mannerisms are like if Jon Snow was just a villain instead of righteous hero. Sadly Kit Harington is the least compelling character in this game, which is probably because he is hardly in it. My personal favorite character is the robot companion Ethan. In my last review I said how charming the Titan was in Titanfall 2. No. **** that Titan Ethan is where it is at. Ethan is a funny, sarcastic, hero. Ethan is if Han Solo was a droid instead of a scruffy looking nerf herder. The story can be played by plowing through just the story missions or you can do the variety of side mission which vary from space combat or boarding enemy vessel to blow it up from the inside. The game is very cinematic with each main story beat either having me scream “oh **** or just having me very engaged to what was happening on the screen. That’s great and all, but how’s the gameplay?

    The gameplay is Call of Duty in space; which we’ve seen already. What is new is the space combat the dog fighting is very enthralling probably because it is in space, but it is just super fun. The future tech is interesting I like that they added new guns that aren’t just machine gun, sniper, shotgun. You get a big ass gun that shoots a stream of laser that’ll eviscerate your enemy. It helps that it made me think of the weapons in District 9. For all you multiplayer fans I can’t say a damn thing to that because I just didn’t have time to cry for three hours. So maybe that is what everyone has a problem with I honestly don’t know.

    Overall I loved this game, and only wish Activision didn’t screw around with making the $80 bundle with Modern Warfare, because I think that put a bad taste in people’s mouth, and they didn’t need to do it because this is a solid game. I say if you are a fan of the Call of Duty story definitely check it out. To the nah sayers out there I say rent this game seriously give this a shot, because this is a solid entry I wasn’t expecting to love as much as I did. I give this a 4.5/5 I couldn’t give it a perfect score only because I didn’t touch the multiplayer.

    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]
