So I got the game on black friday, and I don't understand why it got horrible scores, it's better than BO2 IMO and BO2 got the best scores ever lol. It has many modes in multiplayer and most of them are fun, it has some bugs that needs to be fixed but I think one patch will do, my score: 7.5-8/10

Yeah, I've read PCGamer for a long, long time and I'm not sure where that 35 comes from considering the scores they continue to give to Call of Duty, Battlefield, and even previous MoH titles. Warfighter isn't some stand-out game but it wasn't any worse Story/Content wise than BF3, MW3, or even Black Ops II and they still gave that a 71.

In the BlOps II review they say:
"I mention this because my problem with Blops 2 and CoD in general is not that they are cinematic shooters of little mechanical imagination or meaningful interactivity – I’m completely cool with that. CoD is essentially Duck Hunt with multidirectional movement and a hysterically self-pitying, bellicose view of global politics. That’s OK. That’s allowed."

Somehow Call of Duty gets a free pass on all kinds of stuff because "it's silly and it knows it" but they tear apart MoH which at least tried to humanize the characters by showing the effects of their decisions on their families. There's no award winning writing to be found in either, but MoH tried to show a bit more than just killing everything in sight.

Both reviews poke at the cliched slow motion breaching, turret sections, etc.. and then BlOps II gets a 71 basically just because of zombie mode? I'm not sure how that all works. Zombie mode might be fun for a bit, but is that worth $60 a year and a 71 review score? Not so sure about that. If anything they should both be around the 50-60% mark. I don't buy these kinds of games at full price anymore and theres plenty of other good stuff worthy of a full price purchase right now, but I got MoH:W for $30 on Origin for having BF3 premium.

Played through the 5 hours or so of the campaign and a few hours online and the moved on. I didn't have any problems with crashing or bugs so no real complaints from me.
 
Played my first few hours today and I enjoyed it very much!
Altough there were some small isues I really liked to play online with some friends.
So far so good!
