Might be overdoing it with the future setting at this point, but still one of the good Call of Duty games. Zombies is still at its best and Multiplayer was a bit better, but nothing compares to Black Ops 2.
Although I wish every new gun wasn't in a purchasable supply crate, it gets really dull having to grind and buy for the 3% of getting something good.

I guess I could understand hating this game as a console player, but with mouse aiming on a PC, I feel like the movement tech flawlessly integrates itself and elevates the experience. I've spent countless hours in all three of the primary modes and can still switch on multiplayer or Zombies and have a lot of fun. This game is what stopped me from being jaded to big AAA yearly release games, and helped me realize that every once in a while, evil soulless companies can produce something amazing
Am I even playing COD anymore?
This was a question I legitimately asked at one point while playing this game. Now, this seems like a negative point but I posit the question: is that a bad thing? If a series is able to transform and adapt that isn't inherently a bad thing, in my opinion it's a better alternative compared to stagnating and releasing the same thing year after year. Honestly, I think this game would have fared better as a standalone title, as it's poor attempts to barely tie in to the Black Ops series weigh it down more than anything else in my opinion.
One thing I can't get over is how the game's campaign never actually happened, and the REAL storyline is inside the fast scrawling text at the beginning. Ballsy as fuck, but I'd respect it alot more if the game gave ANY indication that was the truth. They also finally got the idea to do a campaign mode for zombies, but then just have it be the regular campaign with zombified enemies and a voiceover. Lame.
All in all, this game offers some cool mechanics, kind of taking the exo-suits from AW and improving on them, however I fail to see why they needed to tie it to the Black Ops world.
