Remarkable
Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare takes the long-running franchise into the future with its high-tech weaponry and advanced exoskeleton suits. While it delivers on the intense action and adrenaline-pumping moments that Call of Duty is known for, the game falls short in some areas, leaving fans with mixed feelings.

One of the standout features of Advanced Warfare is the exoskeleton suits, which grant players enhanced mobility and abilities. The exoskeletons add a new layer of strategy and verticality to the gameplay, allowing for thrilling combat scenarios. The game also introduces futuristic weapons and gadgets that add variety to the arsenal.

The single-player campaign in Advanced Warfare is a mixed bag. The story follows the typical Call of Duty formula of a military hero saving the world, but it lacks the depth and emotional impact of some of the earlier entries in the series. The campaign is also relatively short, clocking in at around 6-8 hours, which may leave some players wanting more.

The multiplayer mode is where Advanced Warfare shines. With its fast-paced gameplay and a wide range of customizable loadouts, it offers hours of addictive fun. The exoskeleton suits come into play here as well, allowing for dynamic movement and intense firefights. However, the matchmaking system can be frustrating at times, leading to unbalanced matches and occasional lag issues.

Graphically, Advanced Warfare is impressive. The futuristic settings and detailed environments are visually stunning, and the character models are well-rendered. The sound design is also top-notch, with realistic weapon sounds and explosive effects that enhance the immersion.

While Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare brings some exciting new elements to the franchise, it falls short in certain areas. The single-player campaign lacks depth and the multiplayer matchmaking can be frustrating. However, the thrilling gameplay, impressive graphics, and addictive multiplayer mode still make it a worthwhile addition to the Call of Duty series.
