    The new exo movements and abilities are intriguing and would take a while to get used to, and make the game even exciting, if the rest of the issues got fixed first.

    Let's not even talk about the spawns.........they should know better by now.....

Personally, i like the Boost Jump as it makes the game more dimensional, and adds more tactics to kill or avoid dying. Brought me back to the old Unreal Tournament days, which were great at Multiplayer (note to Activision, these worked..learn!)

    The Campaign, while short was fun to do. But as all COD games have had short Campaigns, I had no expectations for a longer one. Ultimately, long term COD players buy the game for the Multiplayer, not the single.

    But the same issues with the Multiplayer maps still exist as have always done. The amount of times i get shot in the back far outweighs the front shots(and vice versa), mainly because the spawn system permanently places new spawns in flanking positions. This becomes infuriating when you look down a path, see no-one, only to be shot 5 secs later as someone spawned behind you.
    The maps are built on a circular spawn system, so actively encouraging flanking and backstabs. and you can do nothing about it. We need maps and spawns with sides and make people meet each other on equal terms. Older maps like Nuketown, while manic, at least meant I know where my enemy will be, and made the game a lot more fun.
    On top of this, Lag seems to be an issue on the PS3 version, obviously the port has flaws, and having screen lag while trying to avoid been fragged is annoying, as 9/10 you end up dying!
    Weapons are the old tried and tested..and we're still mssing the old awards like MDK..they were fun, put them back in.
    And making weapons level dependent is also annoying. This means that a level 40 has a lot more choice and usually of the best stuff than a level 10. Not to mention the care packages with elite weapons. Better either to unlock everything or at least make it a buy with points(AKA ghosts), so I can get the weapons etc I want early enough to put me on equal footing with the lvl 40's.    … Expand

The game often lags horribly to the point ill be behind a building and end up dying in front of it... ok so thats not necessarily the games fault but it hardly makes the game fun and no other multiplayer games have this issue... the campaign is dull at the best of times and the ai is horrid, your own team running in front of you as your firing at the enemy who all tend to sit there poking their heads over obstacles, really???? I mean come on is this the future? Is this innovation I think not, when I first saw the sneak peaks I thought it looked like a rip off of titanfall... but in a more familiar setting which aside from not being able to wall run its not far off but its far from being as polished. On the plus side I like the idea of the supply drops and getting loot from them and the customising of the player character is good... however I am at a loss as to how this got 84 and destiny which is a far better game despite its lack of content and story got a 77????? WTF????? really, just dont waste your money, save it and buy something worthy of the money, boycott the rubbish that is COD until they start producing something that actually returns to the roots and provides a solid multiplayer experience... of course if your a spotty 12 year old chav then buy away it will keep you from annoying us adults on other games.

    WHen I saw the trailer and saw who made it(Sledgehammer Games) I thought for a second, oh no. Another Mw3?
    But I kept a open mind to it. I pre-orded the Day Zero. I played it a bit and WOW I must say, maybe it's the best COD since World at War(my favorite COD). I am not a fanboy, I am normally critically(check out my ratings, on other games and movies)

    The Mulitplayer: Okay, listen, this one IS different than the other games. Same HUD and Loadout from Black Ops 2, but that's it. The EXO-Skeleton makes it run so smooth. I have always been a run and shoot guy(Giant Serious Sam fan, even my emblem is Serious Sam LOGO), and this Game will give us a chance with that. The Quickscope is reduced, so it is harder(I love it) the map are from Small to Large, so it's always fresh. Maps have the dynamic touch from Ghost, some of them changes. Litteraly. There is this one map I can't recall the name on, you are there capturing the flags, suddenly a voice is speaking, "we need to open the doors, a deadly gas is inbound". suddenly the flags disapeaer and a new area of the map will open and with NEW possiblities, it's a fresh idea for COD, and it's the right way, at the beginning I thought. COD AW would kill the franchise, but it have only saved it.
    Make your own character. get different weapons with more damage or less. It's NEW for COD, I know other games already have added it for their games years ago. But we are focusing on COD and not Borderlands and Battlefield, it's a positive way for COD and it's the right.

    I have completed Single Player, and Oh Boy it's one of the better Campaigns in the COD Franchises.

    I would highly recommend COD: AW for anyone who is missing a good and FUN MP.
    (The survival OPs is like the one from MW3) nothing new has changed.

    But I am only reviewing short about MP, because that's the only thing peope will be focusing and playing.
    (I am not a douche, but it is sadly true)

    (Sledgehammer games said from the beginning, they made COD AW, to make it a fun MP and not "taken that much seriously" as the previously games in Franchise, and it sure delivered that. There is less raging in this game, because you CAN have good time.. and make nice and fun kills.

    Buy it! if you need some games lately.    … Expand

    This could have got a lot of work done, and would've been better as an expansion pack or DLC, not as a full game. Online multiplayer has many bugs, such as maps where you can go through walls. Its a good game, but it has many flaws, 3/5 stars.

    - Most, if not all maps encourage a kind of frantic, overwhelming randomness to combat flow. Variety in map design (such as limiting flanking routes, fortifying objective points, or forcing face to face confrontation) would help decrease paranoia and player vulnerability. On the other hand, a map or two that capitalizes a bit more on “verticality” might make jump boosting feel less gimmicky and more essential overall.
    - Gun balancing issues (some guns are blatantly too circumstantial to be practical).
    - The loot reward system is ultimately an uninspired attempt at gamer crack.
    - Melee feels notably awkward a bit too frequently.
    - Audio is nothing special (headsets do seem a bit less advantageous than they were in previous COD’s).
    - Graphics are nothing special
    - Game mechanics are nothing special
    - Various connectivity issues as well as a few glitches/bugs.

    *Da Good(ish)*
    - The jump boosting mechanic and a few other design choices (in part) attempt to dissolve what is otherwise a widely reinforced idea (to some degree), that the COD series (after 4) is generally camper friendly, and requires little to no “skill” to play relatively well. Though I think the attempt is a step in the right direction (a wee little baby step), Sledge still has much further to go if they wish to reinstate the competitive nature of MW while maintaining innovation- and by now, many people are losing hope, if they haven’t lost it all already.

    Maps are clearly designed for the extra vertical dimension but it just makes them a cluster**** because in addition to there being multiple entry points to any position there are multiple entry points on 2-3 levels now, tactical gameplay using choke points is gone you are exposed constantly.

COD just can't capture emotion and felt quite repetitive, doing similar objectives on similar maps. Most importantly though is that there are no new shiny cool toys to play with. One big thing I don't understand in the campaign is that why dose one of the bad guys join the UN then immediately starts a war with the UN and I assume gets kicked out.

    Multiplayer:
    It’s just more of the same in my eyes yeah you can jump a bit higher but there's map restrictions so you can only jump to certain locations so no change there. The biggest and probably most annoying is the loot boxes. Like destiny there’s chances to get gear like elite weapons which can do more damage than the normal ones. YAY RDM just what cod needs when that higher level guy has all the equipment he now has better guns with it.

    Why can you jion a ranked gae half way though and why is it only search and destroy im not playing cs im playing cod.

    Some of the bigger maps can be quite fun but being knifed off spawn is never fun just frustrating or looking at your own dead body and giving someone a double kill. Following the trend of video games. If halo is bad I’m selling my console and going back to the succulent teat of steam.

    1). The TTK is WAAAAAY to fast, it makes the Exo almost useless if you die before you even know you're getting shot at.

    3). After playing Battlefield 4 for the first time last month 6 v 6 is a joke. A JOKE.

    5). See above for levolution. In fact, their scripted events like the tidal wave and volcano eruption are a joke. A JOKE. Almost insulting in fact.

    Because of those last three things COD will get no more of my dollars until they update their ridiculously old engine to incorporate ACTUAL next gen quality games. I give kudos to sledgehammer for trying something new at least. The game is slick, the graphics are nice, it's definitely a step up from the horror show that was Ghosts, but at this point I have to agree with the so many I used to argue with.

The movements are way more fluid than "Titanfall" (everyone compares this game to Titanfall lol) because they didn't throw in the wall running and extra wall hanging. When a game has too many movements and actions, it gets really tiresome to play and Advanced Warfare nailed it on the head with how seamless the game runs. Guns are great as well as the sounds they produce.

The random respawns are horribly annoying because people spawn directly behind you and shoot you in the back. (classic call of duty) The story mode is a joke.

But this is just horrible, The character progression the story, everything seems like a crappy fiction story someone wrote at 12 years old. The graphics are extremely overrated, Lots of terrible terrible environments made shiny by some filters, I wish I could attach some pictures highlighting this, but I cannot. Maybe I am not the best person to be reviewing this because I haven't enjoyed a COD game since MW2 but this game has not brought back anything to the franchise or added any truly new exciting features. Please just let Call of Duty die. Thanks… Expand

It's like playing some live action $200 million summer action blockbuster. The graphics are the best I think I have seen on any of the games I have for the Xbox One, even better than Ryse: Son of Rome. The voice acting is phenomenal, with Kevin Spacey doing a great job along with the other actors. The new facial animations and performance capture are so life like it looks like a movie during many of the cut scenes. The action is intense and fun and addictive. The sound effects are hugely improved over past games with the guns and impacts and explosions sounding like you've been dropped into the middle of a live war zone. The weapons and technologies on display are jaw dropping. It's just a phenomenal game and experience. I was really disappointed with Ghosts, and actually would even go as far as saying I pretty much hated that game because it was so formulaic and uninteresting and looked like an Xbox 360 game graphically rather than next gen. Advanced Warfare is a huge return to form for the series and is thrilling and amazing and next gen in every way. What a turn around. Can't recommend it highly enough.… Expand

    Advanced warfare however, seems like a breath of fresh air. The whole Exo abilities online adds a whole new dimension to the game, you don't just worry about people coming around corners. You have to worry about whats coming from above. The exo abilities makes online fast paced and so far from my experiences, has really cut out a lot of camping because it is near enough impossible.
    If you prefer the old style online without exo abilities, there are classic playlists just for you.

    I've only played a few missions of the campaign, but I have already been blown away by the quality of it. The amount of detail in game and in cut scenes really pulls you into the story. Its not a campaign where you play a few missions and think meh I'm going to go play online instead. It's a campaign that actually makes you want to play it.

Gameplay is not nearly as fluid as past offerings and the EXO suit is more of an annoyance than anything. Others have done it far better (Titanfall, Killzone, Crysis, Destiny {jump mechanics}). But by far the most horrible part of this abortion, is the fanbase. Listening to the **** that falls out of these kids' mouths can be mildly entertaining for about 3 min. Then, its annoying and becomes a symbol of the idiocy and feeblemindedness of the **** that allow this kind of game to be made. I assure you, anyone that has rated this game higher than a 6, has the I.Q. Of a chimp with downs syndrome. Sledgehammer need to pack it up, they have brought nothing new to the table. The fact that this franchise continues to keep feeding it fan-base the same floppy dick, and the fact that they keep gobbling it up, is a testament to the stupidity of mankind.… Expand

    Loving what I have played so far. The graphics are some of the best I've seen, the gameplay is smooth and fluid and its much more fun than ghosts. Still early days - but my first thoughts are that this game is the best COD in many years. The new combat abilities really change things up which makes it feel fresh and unique.

    The game is okay, but it feels like I got tricked by Activision into buying the same Call of Duty again. Mostly because they still use the same outdated 10 year old engine, but aside from that the graphics are nothing special.

I'm not sure about you guys, but I do not enjoy listening to angry children and angsty teens being all butthurt and frustrated over the mic. Bottom line is that the game is entertaining and I will probably play it for a while, but even though I want to enjoy the game I can't, it's like trying to experience the same fun you had in modern warfare.… Expand

    Haven't finished the campaign yet but it has been fun. The new game mechanics and cinematics are great. How can you not like Kevin Spacey? The multiplayer is new. Not boring like Ghost was.

The learning curve may be a little steep for casual gamers which is probably not a great thing. The allure of cod has always been its ease of access for all level of players. The quick scope crowd may not be happy with this game either. The movement of the game doesn't lend itself to the quick scope sniper. Gun balance is ok so far but hard to judge any of that before a few patches. If you are a fan of cod, you will assist and have fun. If you have never played cod, then I'd say pick it up for the campaign and give the multiplayer a try. Over all not a bad game.… Expand

    Short campaign. We beat it in 4 hours. Mediocre multiplayer. Seems like the creator of these games has stopped caring or something. Please put more effort into the next game. This isn't worth $60. Give to charity instead.

    The game play is what you would expect from a CoD game. Silkily smooth movement and great looking texture. The new Exo Ability’s add a much need refresh to the CoD series.

    For the People claiming that this game requires no skill are dearly mistaken.

    there is no invention or art in this game ... and if you played any call of duty game in the passed 5 years you played them all , maybe if the developers take more time than they already did or stared working in a new IP
    they may come up with something Special and innovated.

While not being that long or having much depth, the plot remains tense throughout. The graphics in the cutscenes are stunning and the motion capture is the best I've seen. The people look so lifelike. The attention to detail such as their eyes/face/expressions are amazing. The motion capture and realistic character models really bring the camaraderie aspect of the game to life. On the other side, the action is done very well, with lots of things going on the screen at once. Gameplay wise, its a refinement of the series, but if you aren't a fan of the Call of Duty series, this installment won't change your mind as its core mechanics are the same. I'd say give it a shot though, if you like the sci fi theme.… Expand

    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.

    In many ways, the game is the perfect distillation of the franchise's core appeal. But it's still just Call of Duty, don't expect it to revolutionize the industry. [Issue#118, p.61]
