Just saying. If people just played and didn't worry about stats it might be fun.

I left this game (CoD in general) when my whole team hid to camp, leaving me to capture points on my own, while they worked on thier chopper gunner or nuke...Multiple times, with multiple teams...
What's worse is that appears that BlackOps and MW3 have not only not addressed these problems, but have actually made them worse. The killstreaks are pretty ludicrous now from what I've seen - the game seems to increasingly encourage people to act out the "superhero" and screw any sort of actual teamwork.

Otherwise it's great to have nice cinematic games, but paying $60 for a few hours of play at best seems a bit ludicrous.

For me the peak of CoD games was the early games, especially the United Offensive expansion. Great set pieces, great atmosphere - and simple but effective multiplayer that was obviously meant to be secondary. I wish we could have that again...
