The game, so far, has been fricken awesome!
But there are a few things that annoy me, and will hopefully be fixed in mods or patches. Here they are:
Airstrikes and Choppers add an arcadish feel to a serious game. I hate the idea of getting little gifts for doing good. All it does is make a victory a landslide and shuts out the enemy team, making for a very gay round. I played once where a guy would send an airstrike at spawn, kill 5 or 6, then wait til next round and send it again, kill 5 or 6, and repeat. It was terrible and my whole team had no fun, and his team got no kills or fun (besides that a**hat sending the strikes). Plus, Choppers immediately know where you are, it's annoying.
That little "press space to jump" you see all the time. It's smooth at times and makes for easy movement in some areas, but generally is finicky and too scripted. Either it requires you to be standing in such a precise location that you spend waiting 30 seconds just to find the spot where it lets you, or the area is massive and when you just want to jump you end up getting sucked through a window or over a low wall. It's nice but, IMO, is too much, just let us jump the old fashioned way.
Knifing having it's own button. This is annoying, I want my old knife back. Also, non one hit knives would be nice, like in CS:S. Sure, getting shanked is gonna hurt, but wont instantly kill unless they hit a vital vein or your heart. Even having your throat slit lets you live a few minutes.
Make snipers hold their breath longer. Free divers go for 5 minutes or more while swimming. I think a soldier can go longer than 45 seconds while laying still.
More attachments per gun. Make it so you can put on more, but at a price, like replacing perks with attachments. It seems fair enough and would be a great feature.
That's all I've got to complain about CoD4, now that my mini rant is over feel free to discuss, add, agree, disagree, flame, etc.
