I liked the single player. One of the more enjoyable campaigns since Modern Warfare. Online? I can't even play more then 3-4 games in a row without rage quitting. I was a decent Black Ops 2 player with a K/D Ratio of 2.61 playing Hardcore Team Deathmatch. The maps we WAY too big. You'd think with maps that large you'd be able to spawn somewhere quiet. Negative. I have been spawn killed way, way, WAY too many times. I was even spawned into the blast radius of an I.E.D. I watched my waiting to spawn countdown hit 1. Watched my player reappear and straight away heard the beeping of the I.E.D. Dead again. There is no reason to even attempt to go into the guts of the map - there are literally 5-6 avenues to where you are at any given point in time. So you never know where to look and you're always being shot from behind. I don't even understand why the dogs you get from a killstreak are so powerful. I shoot the stupid thing at least 4 times as it's charging me. Nope - I'm dead. Of course the stupid dog has come straight from the game Doom with God-Mode activated. But my biggest problem with this game - I will be running a certain way and all of a sudden I see an enemy running towards me. I aim, start unloading the clip, oh yet again I'm dead. I look at the killcam. He is running at me, semi-aims his sniper rifle enough that I can see the crosshairs are a good couple of feet to the left/right of me. One shot. My head explodes. I don't understand. I really, really do not understand. It is easily the worst experience I've had online with a COD game.

Use a good headset and the perk Amplify, Matter of fact have good speakers and use that perk because the footsteps are so loud in this game it's a must. As for not dying, you can't just run around these large maps without a camper in a corner or someone hearing your footsteps on this game. For guns I like the MSBS or AK-12 and if you can snipe good use the USR.
I hated it at first but it is starting to grow on me. It actually feels a little different than the other games surprisingly. The dynamic maps are pretty cool. Freefall is my fav. Its crazy how the map changes like that mid-game.
