First of all, I have to say, I really like this game. As someone who didn't jump on the CoD train until Black Ops, I have to say that this is by and far my most favorite CoD game ever.
I have to say, I love the Exo abilities. They add so much more to the game then what has been seen in quite some time. Double jumps, jet-boosted dodges, the ability to cloak yourself, there's so much to love about it.
I also love how they've upgraded the grenades and the weapons as well. I like(and hate) the laser based weapons, but the grenades are really good. I like the ones that can tag nearby enemies myself, but they're all good in their own way.
The campaign is also pretty good as well, which is saying something because I literally had given up on the campaign up to this point. It has a strong sense of pacing, and I absolutely loved Kevin Spacey's role in this game.
I really liked the gameplay in this one as well. Where past titles introduced cool ideas through one-off, barely interactive sequences, this game delivers combat tools that let you be an active part of the spectacle, then brings them back through multiple levels.
The multiplayer also is aided greatly by this as well. The added mobility adds makes each fight less predictable and makes things more interesting, with all three dimensions of movement coming into play.
The new Pick 13 system for create a class, which draws in scorestreak rewards and a new class if exo abilities, makes creating a loadout that fits your personal play style a much deeper affair than in past installments.
The new zombies mode is one thing I don't like, though that is more just me than it is the mode is bad. I didn't care for zombies in BO or BO2. The one thing I have to say is that this time it seems easier than the modes in either Black Ops games. That's just my opinion though.
This series has never struggled to tack on more features, but it's often been unable to improve upon the existing ones in any meaningful way. Advanced Warfare manages to be both bigger and better, and that's something to be excited about for the future of this series.
