Worth the Buy?

**Survival Wreaks** · January 27th, 2015

Should I buy this game or is it just another game like Ghost. Details i'd like to know is how the servers are, are the playlist fun, is their a try hard play list like in BO2. How are the class structures in the game, and all the cool stuff.

There are other threads discussing this game where you can gather information to help you decide. Though to answer your question....AW is VERY different to ghosts

--Feel free to add me if you play AW on the X1--

My opinion is that this game is a very different game than all of the other call of duties. The servers can be laggy at some points but most of the time the servers are working fine. There are many different game modes such as one shot to uplink. These game modes I have enjoyed a lot. This game Is definitely worth the buy.

I suppose it really depends on your personal likes and dislikes of the franchise. The campaign wasn't anything special and only had a few really neat moments that hardly lasted. It was cliche with a stereotypical villain and an ending that could be seen from the get go. I suppose Kevin Spacey did a nice job voice acting, but otherwise, it was just a waste of time and energy to create the Singleplayer, well, in my opinion.
The Multiplayer is still flooded with prepubescent children who have f***** your mom and there a few (but really annoying) bugs, such as the HitScan on weapons not registering at times. Some weapons in Multiplayer are either decent or just plain bad, especially some of the heavier variant of weapons, which really don't offer much of an advantage and just make you a sitting duck. Also, very few killstreaks are effective and most of the Exo Abilities really aren't needed (trust me, never EVER use Exo Hover, it's just pointless). Hate campers? Sorry, but there still in the game, along with TryHards and people who won't ever stop using the frustratingly OP Bal-27. I'd personally wait a bit before getting the game if your looking solely at it's Multiplayer, as it still has it's fair share of problems.
Finally, Cooperative is a blast. If you were to get the game for any reason, you'd want to get it for it's Co-Op. It's challenging, enthralling and can be fun going through. A new DLC just came out for it, introducing Zombies again, and it seems just as challenging and entertaining. Unfortunately, the Co-Op is nearly exactly like every other Horde Mode featured in any game, like, ever (I'd say Firefight from Halo ODST and Reach would be it's closest resemblance), and can get repetitive very, very quickly.
All in all, COD: AW isn't a horrible game, but it's not an amazing game either. It's mediocre at best, but if you decide to buy the game, I hope you enjoy it.
As for it's relation to Ghosts, it's much better, by far. Trust me on that one, bud.

I agree with a lot of points that Graysmog makes especially many people still running around with the Bal but the radical change that has been made with the introduction of the Exo has really turned the series on it's ear. It's just this horrible system of player based matchmaking which creates a lot more lagging games especially if your running in a party although it's definitely worth a look if you a COD fan.

I personally enjoy CoD, I love the fact they have a skilled based rank structure playlist, most games stopped doing that. Thank you guys, remember CoD isn't CoD without those little fellows with their mom jokes!

From my experience AW is worth the money. I like that it takes a new turn at the movement mechanics, but, like any other COD there are a variety of issues with it. The new Exo survival is an okay co-op and personally I love the new DLC and find their version of
Zombies is very tasteful! The guns are new and inventive and the exo suits encourage a new style of gameplay, both with it's each pro's and cons, but all in all I think it's a decent game from my playtime and very enjoyable.
