This is your average CoD and your average trash matchmaking. Despite this, I had moments of fun with the game 1️⃣ but a significant portion of it was either annoyance or frustration, i.e. your average CoD experience (in general and in 1️⃣ retrospection, not worth it). Also, you'll get your average "I regret not quitting sooner" CoD/average game syndrome as well. Have 1️⃣ you tracked how many times you've read average? On top of that, you get your average zombie mode and average 1️⃣ battle royale (because it's fashionable now). Everything in this game gets a prefix of "average." Fascinating case study as I've 1️⃣ never played such an average game before. The only thing that is not average is the option to keep "strong 1️⃣ content" enabled or to disable it. I respect the devs for mature attitude towards their playerbase in this aspect, so 1️⃣ mature adults don't have to suffer from (in this case, optional) "softening" of the game for wider audience. Besides, why 1️⃣ 7 (29.11.2024 reflection, previously 8) and not, let's say, 6 or 5? Because the core gameplay is decent enough, it's 1️⃣ CoD after all, even if it is its below-average iteration in general, and (if you have them) you can always 1️⃣ play with friends or in closed sessions, so matchmaking horrors wouldn't get you there.
