The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.

Why players love itThings to know
75% of themes are praise300 helpful reviews25% are complaints
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
40 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game offers a nice customization to your weapons, everything is unlocked, so that there is no level up.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
39 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The mixture of new gameplay styles (you can't just run and gun here, you'll die), tactics, and some funny glitches on occassion, add up to be one of the most wonderful times I have had playing a game with friends in a long, long time.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
34 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game's audio is amazing and offers the better sound effects that could have in a multiplayer FPS.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
33 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Co-op particularly shines when playing with friends, as the tactical gameplay rewards methodical clearing of rooms and tight callouts.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
19 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The simplicity of the visuals adds to the immersion rather than taking away from it.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
15 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Part of this is enabled by the fantastic sound design and particle effects - guns are spectacularly loud, a blinding amount of smoke and dust gets kicked up from fully automatic fire, and suppression effects seriously mess with a player's accuracy.
