Hey all,
Just finished playing another load of OCD4 multiplayer and have a few comments to make.
The Rank System
The stats system is pretty good and how you rank up, however the basic weapons you get are nothing to compared to people with higher ranks. This means they'll continue to rip you to shreads. I prefer a level playing field should as in CS: Source where, if your good, you are rewarded with more cash for you to buy better weapons next round. However, it's fairly easy to save for a good weapon even if your rubbish.
The Maps
Most of the maps are pretty good. However I feel some areas need more cover. Sometimes, such as in sniper areas you can find you can be shot from all directions even though its clear that the area was built for snipers.
Respawn
This is annoying. You respawn in a fairly random manner (talking about team deathmatch around your fellow team). This means you are fairly clueless as to where you'll spawn and there is a good possibility the enemy is sounding you. As people spawn from all areas (when teams are even) you can be shot from any direction, including the way you just come from.
Helicopters/Air strikes
This is the worst of them all. For the kind of maps COD4 has, small to medium sized and the fact your ground troops why did the developers add airstrikes in? BF2 I can understand but with an airstrike you can wipe out the whole team, the helicopter forces you to hide and fire everything you have at it while defending yourself from all angles.
I'm fairly addicted to COD4 so it must be pushing the right buttons but there are several areas I feel are annoying and hopefully with be tweaked with updates.
