My problem with the game is how COMPLETELY cheap it is. Ground jamming magically making sensors etc. disappear? A thin little plastic shield killing a maniac with a little bump to the face? Bullets that magically just disappear mid flight when you die? Helicopters that take you out INSIDE of a building? Helicopters PERIOD. Absolutely NO WAY to defend and/or save yourself if being shot from behind? Shooting people through walls? On and on and on.

I play it on PS4 because it's the only FPS on the system that lets you play split screen and my fiance loves to play FPS with me, but it's' just laughably cheap. I can play a game and get 20-0, and then the next game, 1-5. Why? Cheapness. There's no way to stop random cheapness from happening.

Isn't the main purpose of a ground jammer to jam ground equipment? Maniacs can die from anything with low enough health. Bullets disappearing when you die is due to lag, every game has it, but this game like past CoD's is infuriating because you feel like they should count because you actually DID shoot the bullets. Thats CoD's biggest problem is the lag compensation, trust me, I get lots of it with a 50MB connection. What's wrong with having helicopters? And there are ways to prevent being shot from behind with motion sensors, I.E.D.'s, Amplify perk. I love shooting someone, having them run behind a thin wall and then guessing where they will be -shoot-  then end up getting the kill. Its all part of the game, you know it is, now you just have to figure out how to play it to your advantage.

It sounds like you don't like CoD in general. It ain't getting better from here on out for people who don't like CoD becuase it isn't going to change drastically.

I know the purpose of ground jammers is to jam ground equipment, but I think it's cheap. Helicopters are cheap too. Where is the skill in that? Yes, you have to get a streak, but streaks happen due to luck most of the time.

And yes, I think it's fun...but only in a casual way. I don't take it seriously or get into it competitvely because it's just, way too cheap. I like defensive play and COD feels like it's all offense. Halo was the game I cut my teeth on, and I think that's why I feel this way. In Halo, it's all about defense. If someone is shooting me, I can react, and save myself and use my brains to get out of the jam. In COD, it's whoever pulls the trigger first etc.
