Ok I've played the beta for a couple of hours and these are my thoughts and observations
first thing to point out is that only core game play is available at the moment so all this is based on that and i played domination and tdm.
personally I think this game is another step back compared to previous COD games.
score streak are replaced with kill streaks meaning those that support other players are going to be penalized for not been a good shot or have fast re-actions.
i managed to get a guided bomb a couple of times and could never actually guide it (not sure why)
accuracy doesn't seem to mean much, the bullets don't seem to be going where the gun is pointing, and sometimes there is loads of recoil and other times none (use the same weapon). i also noticed after you start hitting a enemy player the gun almost seem to lock on and accuracy improved at close-ish range.
weapon damage seems random some times 2 bullets is enough other times it takes 20. also i got the jump on a few players and put 3-4 rounds in them before they turn around and killed me using whats seemed like the same type of weapon.
movement seem clunky and team mates can block doorways, hallways etc stopping you from passing. i noticed sometimes i could just run over a little wall and then next time it would stop me and i would have to jump.
movement speed seem off now this could be based on loadout and total weight but sometimes my movement was fast and smooth and other times seemed slugish and delayed.
maps seem ok most had verticality and multiple levels and opportunities to shoot between and even climb between them also destructible walls are a thing and parts can be destroyed creating peep holes etc. explosive barrels are not obvious (aka red) and seem to have a massive blast radius (i was killed twice by something exploding a what i believe was good distance away)
Sound seemed strange not sure on this yet. very rarely heard footsteps and could not identify where the person was based on them. or if they were enemy or friendly.
I will continue to try the game but so far i'm very disappointed in the game. i had high hope after alot of people said it was like COD:MW.
