      @@davis6175 Speak for yourself lol. I can understand the hate on it, especially with the infrared scope, soundwhoring perks and slow paced games with massive maps but that's what made it good imo.
      Finding "the good gun" didn't matter, there was no meta. You just had to grab a gun, set up your perks and attachments carefully and play tactical rather than run and gun. It made Call of Duty online feel faster than Battlefield but slower than CoD. Idk, it was sublime in my books.
