    I seriously think this is the worst call of duty game ever. The exo jump/movement system was dreadful. And also, this game's loot crate system was one of the worst I've ever seen.

    Really a terrible game. By far the worst of the series, if you wanna know why, just go watch the trailer.

    I feel like they completely changed the cod series to a jumping game its very frustrating due to all the movement and it has became a pay to win game.

    This game is good, not the greatest tho. there are a few reasons i dislike Advanced Warfare, First thing is that shotguns and snipers are pretty much useless. When you try to snipe somebody they can just EXO jump into the air and kill you. Shotguns are also point less because its harder to get up close to another player.

Second reason is Spam Spam Spam, all you have to do in this game is Exo jump non stop and kill your opponents. Forth reason is If you only have 3 out of the 4 map packs you will find no games. So either buy all 4 DLCS or Don't install any DLCS. My last reason is that Exo Zombies sucked. One of the worst zombie modes i ever played in Call of Duty series. Zombies Exploding and stupid EMP zombies that shut down your EXO suit for like 10 seconds and gets you killed. Expand

    COD: the yearly box of chocolate - you do not really know what's inside, but rest be assure, it will be sweet and well, the same chocolate with perhaps different fillings. This game was improvement over Ghost but it still feels too scripted, corridor-like game with not much thrills.

    A rather lame, boring game. Of course it kind of revived the Call Of Duty series but it was the start if a whole new era. A bad one. Activision fails to make a good Call Of Duty like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and the other classics. This is rather too futuristic than fun and too easy to beat story mode.

    This isn't Call of Duty. This is some terrible hybrid of Titanfall, Call of Duty and Halo. Save your money....or better yet, spend your money on any of the other Call of Duties.

    Advanced Warfare has the worst multiplayer in the Call of Duty series, Sledgehammer and Activision should ask Tryarch for some tips on how to create a game worth playing.

There are far too many issues with the netcode (which causes lag) to be having such extreme movements. The game does not feel like Call of Duty and feels like Titanfall 2. The campaign was great however, and it was very enjoyable (especially because of Kevin Spacey) The survival mode is disgusting and should be avoided at all times, and the Exo Zombies was purposely delayed and withheld from user access just to be sold as DLC, hence my Candy Crush comment. Overall, the game was a good idea turned horribly wrong, and it is overall a meh game at best. Expand

    I hate to say this but this is probably the worst game I've played in my entire life. I bought the game the day it hit the shelves and sold it two months later. Terrible lag. It tries to live up to its title "Advanced warfare" by adding exo suits but all exo suits are is unadvanced, stupid, and an easy way for others to kill you. Don't buy this game! It sucks!

    This is the worst COD ever created. The means of vertical movement make it unplayable and silly. It is a game for children that want to hop around all day long but for someone with a better idea of tactic or gameplay this is not for you

Yet I will give it credit I liked it more then ghosts but that does not mean that this is a good game.

Yet I will give it credit I liked it more then ghosts but that does not mean that this is a good game. Short campaign and the multi-player makes me never want to play online EVER again.

    The campaign is some what good but the game play by itself is SO boring that I can hardly explain it. Basically bullets, face and BAM. There's not really any challenge in the game what so ever, even when you are on the hardest mode. I don't know who the heck made the campaign, but it is not realistic at all. Nobody would just attack America right out of the blue, not to mention that he said that at the United Nations. I'm just going to spoil the game for you because it is not worth going through the hour of story. The graphics (Chuckles) nobody cares about graphics unless you are a 15 year old fan boy.

    The multi player is nearly tiresome, the game play is junk, the severs are as solid as wet bread, and you guessed it more of the squeaky 10 year old little idiots that are yelling to their mom to get more chocolate milk and skittles. Campers, quick scopers you get the picture. But I don't know how they screwed up the spawn points SO badly. I can not even spawn because I get killed because there are 2 spawn points. 2! That's it? I don't know how you screw it up so badly the makers of call of duty but you do it every time.

    I'm not even going to count the survival crap as another part of the game because it is a BIG waste of time, and you don't even get anything out of it.

    Overall the game is not even worth 5 dollars, if Xbox gave this game away for free then I would say go for it. But other than that this game is not worth to play at all just another cash grab that the makers of call of duty want to make more of those shiny graphics that are apparently so freaking important. But in my opinion it is just a rip off of titan fall, basically almost everything in here is just a rip off of titan fall. Whoever says it isn't is just in denial cause they know. HEY SHUT UP COD FAN BOYS! This IS a rip off of titan fall get over it. But I guess I will end in a good note because I sad I liked it better then Ghosts. So there's that.

    Overall score: 25/100

With a sped up multiplayer it redefines the call of duty franchise and not in a good way. It shines the light on the fact that change does not mean better. After mediocre reviews for Ghosts (a game that I personally like very much) Call of Duty decided that it needed to go in a different direction with the new game. While this wasn't a bad thought, the execution was lackluster. Starting at CoD4 and ending with BlackOps2 (with the exception of WaW) CoD had employed a simple strategy and kep it by just simply realizing if it ain't broke don't fix it. The games didn't introduce large scale changes but instead opted for a new take on the same old thing: a game based on mostly modern concepts of war and realistic movement and tactics. With Advanced Warfare the creators saw that it was time for a change which I did agree with, but the implementation of a brand new exo suit based movement system was where I believe the series struck not gold, but maybe something a little less captivating, let's say plastic. The new system of movement completely destroyed what I had come to know as Call of Duty in my 8 years of CoD experience. Even with Ghosts, Infinity Ward managed to produce a good game just by implementing the same old system and re-imagining only the little things like killstreaks and guns. The creators of AW took a great chance with the exo suit but in my opinion it did not pay off but instead showed many that without risk nothing bad can happen and made me very thankful for a Ghosts game ridiculed for a lack of originality. That is why I believe that AW killed CoD and what those three words, Call of Duty, meant to me. Expand

    The exo suits they include in the game ruin what was a previously fun multiplayer (ghosts aside). The game is extremely chaotic - you're constantly getting killed from the sides and behind because everyone moves so fast. There's no map control or rewards for good positioning. The game is just who has the better reactions.

    Multiplayer -
    Extremely fast paced and not in a good way. Time to kill is low, hardly any recoil on weapons and the ability to move around the map at a fast pace that is further increased with exo movement. This would all be fine but the spawns and maps don't compliment it. Dying 5 seconds after you re-spawn is likely. Most map layouts are very circular making strategy games like S&D just

This would all be fine but the spawns and maps don't compliment it. Dying 5 seconds after you re-spawn is likely. Most map layouts are very circular making strategy games like S&D just rush and flank faster than the other team. Hard core mode (personal favorite from previous cods) can be extremely frustrating with every position having 4-5 possible flank and a spray from the double jumped dodging enemy killing you from behind. Playing as a team is nearly impossible with the lack of choke points as an enemy can get behind you in a dozen different ways. This is a run in gun game to the extreme if that's your thing this will be a good fit. If you are about strategy or outplaying the enemy I recommend passing this up.

    If you play Call Of Duty online all year round then Christmas has officially come early. But if you’re a sucker for the ludicrous, globe-trotting, re-skinned James Bond adventures that constitute these games in single player, you’ve picked the perfect year in which to take a twelve-month break.
