Now, I won;t be getting this game at all. The closest I'll get is watching Kevin/Utorak on YT do a playthrough. But two things I've noticed about the game really rattle me as a gamer: Also, on the subject of the campaign, the storyline jumps around locations too much, you don't feel attached to the soldiers themselves (same can be said of BF3, except in Rock and a Hard Place and Kaffarov), and you barely have time to understand what's going on before another twist in the tale occurs. Now apparently Makarov controls a militia in Sierra Leone. And that was backed up by what events in MW1 or MW2???
 * 1) The animations of the soldiers. Frankly, after seeing every CoD from CoD4 to now have the same NPC running animation, I'm a bit sick of it. It just doesn't look natural
 * 2) The lack of attention to detail. Sure you can have a magnifier on an EOTech or a BU-RDS on an ACOG, but there is a huge lack of attention to detail on many points. Magazines are simply a metal box (evidently bullets are transfigured out of the metal), soldiers' hands still pass through foregrips and GLs, and the AI still runs straight towards the nearest path of bullets - player fired or AI-fired. It needs sorting out.
