...and I found it to be meh. No, I'm not delusional, high, or mentally handicapped. This is my honest opinion, and please don't flame me for it.
I went into the game, really trying to like it and hyped about it, after hearing what the forums have to say about it. It let me down terribly.
- Hit detection was terrible (yes, I have good aim), but it might be because of my connection, so I'll give it the benefit of the doubt.
- Vehicles were messed up. Some guy always went around in a Warthog and managed to splatter everyone easily. The physics of the vehicles, primarily the Warthog, were messed up as well. I glance off a rock, and I go tumbling. Sometimes, I got splattered by my own vehicle when I got flipped.
- Spawning is terrible. Almost every single time I spawned, I spawned within Plasma Pistol firing distance of an enemy. I also cannot count the number of times I splattered a guy who just spawned right in front of me.
- Weapon balance was atrocious. Everyone used the Magnum, it wasn't even funny. No other non-power weapons were even being used. The so-called powerful AR that I kept on hearing about was useless at every range besides close quarters; it was that inaccurate. Burst firing didn't help that much, since the pistol could do it quicker and faster.
- Pistol was OP. A three shot kill, scoped, rapid-firing gun that you spawn with? Tell me that's not OP. And kill times edged along the "too fast" category. Often times, I killed a guy before he even turned around to face me. It's really not that hard to aim, either, like the community said it was.
- Teammates were the worst I've ever encountered. Perhaps this is the community's problem, not the game's, but I met betrayers, weapon stealers, lone wolves, and general oblivious players almost every game I went into.
Don't get me wrong, the CE campaign was pretty good. Not the best, IMO, but still good; I enjoyed playing co-op on it a lot. It's just that the multiplayer portion of it was not as good, in fact, it was undeserving of almost all the hype that I received. I was expecting a good, if not great, MM experience; instead, I got something worse than any MM game I've played.
