    For this I would give the game a 8.5 but since people gave this game a zero score (!??) I thought I should rectify that a bit :-)    … Expand

    3 The countryside is one of the most beautiful
    4 The zonbie idem
    5 The multy no, but p2w or not is fun

    Is the game a piece of s---, no, it's not. Could it be improved, yes, it can.

    The campaign is an improvement with it's small HUB where you can choose to do some side missions if you want to get some better gear or upgrades to your fighter jet. The best part of the campaign are the Jet fights. These missions are fast, chaotic and a blast to feel like your a badass. However, the campaign    Is the game a piece of s---, no, it's not.

However, the campaign suffers from a weak narrative, generic characters and possibly the worst villain in Cod history. 6-7 hours in length, BTW.

    The multiplayer though, gets praise from me for including splitscreen and the balanced pick 10 system from BL 2 and AW.

    Zombies is also fun as well.    … Expand

    Many of the people disliking this game "reviewed" it before it even came out. This is the best single player campaign since Modern Warfare, and the multiplayer is typical Infinity Ward: polished, fluid, at times frustrating (lots of really great players out there), and fun - albeit somewhat familiar. The addition of some Zombie-related activity is a boon for fans of Treyarch-developed CoDs.

    Infinite Warfare first is getting hate/dislike by a lot of people. But Infinite Warfare is getting even more EPIC and FUN today, Ultra Beautiful Graphics. Future tech. Energy Weapon, and more
    Game Price is too expensive but provide outstanding fun.

    The art style and future tech on show here actually feels like tech we would actually have in the future (if we could make it that far without blowing ourselves up first that is), and the design and art decisions that have been made here are exceptional and just add to the immersion.
    The sound and the score composed by Sarah Schachner is superb and one of the best original scores I have heard in a game this year, and definitely one of the best COD original scores ever.
    The characters are interesting, relatable and fun, unlike the boring, unlikable **** of Black Ops 3 and the overall story is intelligent and engaging - again unlike the abysmal, nonsensical campaign and writing of Black Ops 3 (anyone remember "train go boom"?).

    You even have full command over your own ship and for the first time in the series you have full control of your very own space fighter ship called a "Jackal".
    You use these during some of the campaign missions and in separate side missions and they are basically space dog fighting sequences and they are epic fun! Destiny could learn a thing or two from these missions instead of relegating their space ships to loading screens.

    Imagine the awesome space dog fighting missions from Halo Reach, only faster and even more epic, a mix of that and Ace Combat: Assault Horizon.

    And yes you heard me correctly, the campaign not only has its own story based missions but you also have side missions that you can tackle also, and you can do these in any order you want, from assaulting an enemy cruiser to hunt down and eliminate a high value target to the aforementioned Jackal missions you are given full control on how and when to do these missions from the bridge of your very own space battle cruiser via a holographic map of the solar system.
    See a mission on Venus you want to investigate? Something on the outer rim of the solar system near Pluto catch your eye? Give the order and your battle cruiser jumps into faster than light speed and you jump to that planet or moon, no loading screens! Its amazing!

    The MORONS rating this so low obviously have not even touched the campaign and are just drinking yet more of the hate cool-aid that spews from the teat of the first trailer released on YouTube, as you can see none of them are talking about the campaign and are only focusing on the multiplayer and thats a shame as that is this games strongest asset and the best the series has had in many many years, easily puts anything Treyarch has done to shame since WaW, wipes the floor with anything Sledgehammer has done and easily laughs in the face of Infinity Wards own efforts since MW2.

    I'm a single player guy so I wont be writing up a detailed analysis of the multiplayer, but from the time I have invested into the mode I can say with confidence it is a drastic improvement on the lag-fest and janky mechanics that was Black Ops 3, and looks and runs a lot smoother too, at least on Xbox One.

    TTK seems good but there definitely seems to be an issue with lag compensation from time to time, but this is nothing really new with a COD game, and once you get used to it and start to unlock some better weapons and attachments and learn the map layouts you can start to have fun, despite the typical **** scummy, cheap players attempts to stop you from doing so that you get in every multiplayer game these days. (campers, cheaters, exploiters (saw one POS hiding under the map and shooting people who I reported to Microsoft) in general cowardly, try hard losers etc etc, ya know, the usual scum of xbox live.)

    A few features are missing but again, I dont really care that much about the multiplayer to really give a damn, as COD is all about the single player experience to me, and the MP is the throw away aspect. In that respect this game is the COD game of this generation for me, that and it being a remarkable improvement over the slow, low frame rate, poorly written and ugly mess that was Treyarchs pathetic attempt at last years COD is the reason why i'm rating it so highly.

    Oh yeah, and Zombies in Spaceland is the new gold standard for co-op zombies mode, another thing all these cool-aid drinking 12-year old haters are forgetting to mention. Its a standout mode that, when combined with the superlative campaign, easily makes this the best COD of this generation.

    Buy it.

    Just ignore the micro-transactions, but thats not the games fault, thats the fault of the industry at large and party YOUR/OUR fault for buying into shady business practices like that in the past thus making them popular with publishers and an acceptable thing to do in their eyes. Vote with your wallets and use your brains from time to time and **** like micro-transactions wouldn't be a thing.    … Expand

However, I tried to put it aside when playing for the first time, and all I am going to do is be honest. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare absolutely is not worthy of the hate it received upon its reveal.
    I will agree that the multiplayer does feel fairly lacklustre compared to Black Ops III, it is a nearly identical copy with inferior gameplay, and I honestly did not enjoy the Zombies mode that much. So why have I given this game an 8/10? Because I believe that it has the best CoD campaign in years.
    The last CoD campaign to truly amaze me was 2008's World at War. Since then, I feel the series has devolved into simply a mindless action series with ever decreasing substance with each entry, but Infinite Warfare has given me new hope for better campaigns in the series.
    The IW campaign does break the norm when it comes to the series, in minor and major ways. For example, you actually get to choose the missions you go on, you are not necessarily following a linear story progression, you shape the story and make all of the calls. The entire campaign had a strong sci-fi vibe with a surprisingly engaging story and a memorable cast of characters. There are also many missions where you pilot your own ship, and the flight controls are fantastic, with a shocking amount of freedom in movement and even gravity and orientation adjustment.
    One other area that I feel is often overlooked with Call of Duty games is the soundtrack, and Infinite Warfare's music I found to be phenomenal, a perfect mix of electronic music and 'real' music, and I feel as if it fit strongly with the setting.

    I could go on for ages talking about what Infinity Ward nailed in the campaign, but I want to keep this review from being too long. I'm going to end this by saying, if you are a sci-fi fan, there is a chance that you may love Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare as much as I do. I respect Infinity Ward for standing their ground after the negative response this game recieved, and being able to pull of one of the best single player experiences in the series I have had. I do sometimes enjoy the multiplayer, but it depends on how I feel at the time.

    TLDR: Mediocre multiplayer, personally didn't like Zombies but you may like it, loved the campaign.

To start, the campaign is a blast. It tells a complete story that leaves open for more possibilities but wraps up nicely. There are nice character moments and the set pieces are awesome too. Along with that, many side missions are abundant and are a joy to play as well. The campaign also has sections in space and when you're doing ship fights and those are a blast as well. I would say this is definitely an awesome story that is worth playing through.

    The Multiplayer is fun as well. It's similar to Black Ops 3 but has a few things that put it above. First, the maps are very well designed. There aren't any dead spaces in the maps and I generally look forward to playing all of them. Secondly, the payloads (which are your character which has special abilities) are just as fun if not more so to use than Black Ops 3. If I had to levy a complaint at the Multiplayer, it is that they have micro transactions while also selling a season pass. If they released the maps for free but had micro transactions I would be ok with it, but the face that they're charging for both is a bit scummy.

    Zombies is also very fun. Called Zombies in Spaceland, it is a very detailed playground with plenty of fun things to explore. Unlike Black Ops 3, Infinite Warfare's zombies manages to create a complex map which also is fun to play if you just want to mow down zombies and not worry about other stuff. I do wish they had more then one map though, as one map does get old after a while.

    Overall it is a very enjoyable game. It isn't perfect, but I would say it is definitely worth the purchase and uses its si-fi themes well.    … Expand

    My name is Clark Townly and I am reviewing on one of my favourite video games and it’s called Call of Duty Infinite Warfare. I think call of duty is the best game that infinity ward has ever made in my entire life.

    I like the new armour, the gear and the weapons and I love when you can fly and have aerial combat in the fighter jets. My favourite part on the game is when I met Ethan because he’s really awesome.
    The zombie map is great every time infinity ward always make a great zombie maps for COD fans like to play on. Every time that infinity ward makes a new call of duty they always get better graphics and colour and they create the best zombie maps of all time.
    What I love about infinite warfare is you play the role of acting captain of a sky carrier and that you have a massive crew. Its gets bit sad near the end when the captain’s crew risk their lives just to protect their commander.
    I enjoy playing call of duty, it’s basically my life and every time I get back from school or college, I go on play on call of duty right away right I do my homework and have my dinner.
    My favourite character on infinite warfare is Ethan because he is awesome and he’s great in a fire fight but it’s upsetting that Ethan orders the commander to self-destruct him to complete the mission.    … Expand

And I was shocked. Graphic on Xbox One S is pretty good, specially on 4K TV. Campaing is very dynamic and intense. Gameplay is very enjoyable. Characters are interesting beside are take out from hollywood movies. It's like you play and watch war sci-fi movie at the same time but hold controller and could change history by your own. Developers show us how could be look like future war and what effects could it cause... Death our friends, death innocent people and damage that never rebuild by human.

    Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare is a strange addition to the franchise. It can be seen as the most hated game in the series, whether it's the fact it's another game set in the future or whether it can be seen as a poor BO3 clone.

ReyesCall of Duty: Infinite Warfare is a strange addition to the franchise. It can be seen as the most hated game in the series, whether it's the fact it's another game set in the future or whether it can be seen as a poor BO3 clone. However i feel this game doesn't have enough reviews from users that are worthwhile. I'm gonna start with the campaign for my review, you play as Cpt. Reyes fighting for the UNSA. The story revolves around the fight between the UNSA (United Nations Space Agency) and the SDF (Settlement Defense Front) It features combat in space rigs without a space shuttle in the vacuum of space utilizing a grapple hook and a jet pack. Space combat using a space shuttle, which is actually quite good and controls very well considering it's a part of a a Call of Duty campaign. Finally there is normal ground combat, utilizing the boosting abilities which is part of the hate for this game. The story is great, the hub is amazing and the characters are great. The multiplayer is very similar to the one in BO3, and considering the games from MW to Ghosts were similar to each other i don't see the problem in this. There are six rigs which are fun to use, and there is a health bar to really rub it in when you don't get a kill. The zombies mode is also fun, not on par with Treyarch zombies but that isn't much of a surprise. it doesn't rely heavily on a particular gimmick like Sledgehammer's Exo Zombies. There is something controversial i need to talk about. The supply drops. These in all fairness are much fairer than both AW's and BO3's systems. You get supply drop related items each day, whether it's salvage, which lets you buy weapon variants if you don't have keys to earn the guns from supply drops, keys themselves and either rare or common supply drops. Season pass owners get another daily item as well. Also zombies players get keys for their playtime which they can use to buy either supply drops or zombies crates which include fate or fortune cards.… Expand

    I recently started playing this game expecting a terrible game. The user score is abysmal. I'm guessing (without reading too many) that the main complaints are about the multiplayer.

These games really don't innovate much between releases so I'm always surprised at just how angry people get over minor changes.

    That said, I mainly played the campaign and I thought it was a lot of fun. The characters were interesting for a CoD game and the plot, while simple, gave me enough reason to be invested in the story and want to explore it some more. I certainly wouldn't mind returning to this universe in the future, but given the backlash it received I doubt we'll ever see this particular universe again.    … Expand

    I believe this game got an unfair view by many people, let me start off by saying it was made to appeal to a certain niche. That niche apparently was not the Call of Duty fan base.

That niche apparently was not the Call of Duty fan base. The game itself would have worked better as a standalone, not a CoD game. If you look past the expectations and standard for all Call of Duty titles, what comes out of it was a pretty unique and casually fun game. Sure, it was quite unbalanced and everyone was a tad bit too overpowered, but if those were fixed, it would have been an awesome game. Supply crates were easy to obtain without paying money, it had great maps, smooth mechanics, pretty good graphics, etc. If you view this game as it's own game, it feels great. Now that isn't to say there are problems of course. For instance, games felt that they went by way too fast, shotguns felt useless unless you used the m.2 with akimbo put on, jet packs lasted a little bit too long, a few specialists didn't work out well against others (i.e. Phantom smashes the War fighter), and a few other reasons. As for Zombies, it is awesome. The map smoothly transitions into each region, it is well balanced (besides the boss who is too powerful), guns can be easily customized, the wave's difficulty accurately represents the wave itself, and many other reasons to enjoy it. All and all, I give this game a 9/10.… Expand

    Decent campaign: some unique set pieces, but overall not too memorable. The multiplayer is enjoyable, and there are some great maps. I had a ton of fun unlocking and leveling up all the different guns. The zombies mode is hit or miss - some maps are great, some are horrible. The Easter eggs can be infuriating; it's time zombies mode is overhauled.

    If the zombie mode in your game is the part that feels best, you know you have some patching to do. It just feels very unbalanced and rushed here at release.

    Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare is a mess. There is fun to be had but there it really feels like Infinity Ward really had no idea what direction they wanted to take the series in. Space battles are fun, the campaign missions are fun and the new Zombies mode is a blast, but everything else is just so mediocre that it really brings down the experience.
