Reviewers Didn't Like

  • Maps too large
  • Overly complex
  • Strong feeling of familiarity - even on next-gen
  • Really bad dialogue
  • Weird design choices surrounding squads leave the multiplayer feeling gimped at times
  • Removal of competitive League Play option is unfortunate and feels like a step back
  • The spawn system often spawns enemies directly behind you, making high-end killstreaks all but impossible to obtain
