    Great campaign with mediocre co-op and a multiplayer plagued by bugs, poor servers, and skill-based matchmaking. Campaign was thoroughly enjoyable, though if you played the original.. you roughly know where this is going. Very telling that their priority was in putting bundles and a battle pass into the store before correcting issues that have been present since the beta. Warzone 2.0 was about as fun as Warzone, take that as you will, and DMZ was a nice (albeit underwhelming) subtle change to the formula. Would recommend buying on sale for the campaign and few hours of enjoyment to be had in co-op with a friend, but overall, I wouldn't consider it to be the triumphant return of COD multiplayer that this game had been hyped up to be.

    XorthromauthWasn't intended to be a full in-depth review, and I'm unsure how it's biased, but cool.

    DubstepEdgelordSounds like a fair review, haven't played the full game but from the beta the multiplayer was just terrible. Its funny how it was hyped up to be the "most advanced call of duty" but lacks basic features. I never liked the movement in this engine (except for cold war which i thought was fine) and that has a lot to do with my issue with the latest cods.

    FQXNo elaboration on any criticism, no mention of achievements, not split by modes or anything - Just ungrounded hate. There are plenty of issues with the game, but none were clearly, fairly, and properly highlighted in this "Review"

    Lord DarkfungWish I’d read this before I bought the game - multiplayer is just dire.

    Tozi Tiberius"Great campaign with mediocre co-op and a multiplayer plagued by bugs, poor servers, and skill-based matchmaking" is kind of what I wanted to hear. A bit of elaboration would be nice, but I have always been into CoD for the single player. The MP has always been a brief distraction for me.
