Fails in so many ways, can hardly put up with it

I'll say the same as just about everybody else, campaign is decent, worth a play-through, but multiplayer is worthless. Having not played MW2, I can't compare it in terms of being similar, but I can compare it to good games, and this isn't one. Black Ops had it's failings, but was overall a pretty solid game, you actually had to have skill to do well. This game requires no skill. Just grab the strongest weapon and spray around, hit detection is awful, you just have to be aiming in someone's general direction to hit them, and now with pointstreaks instead of killstreaks, ESPECIALLY with the support package where it doesn't matter how many times you die, you still get it eventually, anybody can hop on and noob their way through the game. The support package killstreaks are way too overpowered, if you would have told somebody in Black Ops they could get a blackbird and a chopper gunner without having to really try, everybody would have gotten on that. Anyone who rates this game well has no clue what they're talking about. This game is like a summer blockbuster, it's flashy and full of explosions and other bs that will pacify mentally devoid players, but for the people who actually try to play and try to do well, it's worthless. The guns are all the same, the maps are all round and full of crap everywhere, and nothing does what it says it should. I didn't want to equip a suppressor on anything because of how far it decreased the range of the weapon . . according to them anyway. I tried it out, and it has no effect on bullet distance, feels exactly the same as not having it. None of the weapons have any kickback or recoil, so it's not difficult to line somebody up and spray the needed 2 1/2 bullets into them ANYWHERE to kill them. Killstreaks are up constantly, there's always a uav or advanced uav up, or helicopters or hinds or anything else. Spawning is ridiculously horrible, theres really no reason to waste the time to scope unless the enemy is halfway across the map because there's no change in accuracy. Just another case of a company that's too big for itself trying to appeal to the masses by dumbing down a game so everybody feels like they can play it well so they can sell more copies so they can keep their boat afloat. Just because it's the most successful game ever doesn't mean it's because the game's good, over half the people that bought this game wouldn't have if they'd have rented it first, myself included. There was just a bunch of hype and promise. Elite is a joke too, but that's a different story. Black Ops showed me all the stats I wanted to see, so now that they're trying to market Elite, they removed all that stuff from MW3 and made me pay to see it. They better get their act together.
