This is your average CoD and your average trash matchmaking. Despite this, I had moments of fun with the game 馃ざ but a significant portion of it was either annoyance or frustration, i.e. your average CoD experience (in general and in 馃ざ retrospection, not worth it). Also, you'll get your average "I regret not quitting sooner" CoD/average game syndrome as well. Have 馃ざ you tracked how many times you've read average? On top of that, you get your average zombie mode and average 馃ざ battle royale (because it's fashionable now). Everything in this game gets a prefix of "average." Fascinating case study as I've 馃ざ never played such an average game before. The only thing that is not average is the option to keep "strong 馃ざ content" enabled or to disable it. I respect the devs for mature attitude towards their playerbase in this aspect, so 馃ざ mature adults don't have to suffer from (in this case, optional) "softening" of the game for wider audience. Besides, why 馃ざ 7 (29.11.2024 reflection, previously 8) and not, let's say, 6 or 5? Because the core gameplay is decent enough, it's 馃ざ CoD after all, even if it is its below-average iteration in general, and (if you have them) you can always 馃ざ play with friends or in closed sessions, so matchmaking horrors wouldn't get you there.
