Opinion: Black Ops 3 Doesn’t Change Enough

"I, like many others, have spent much of the past few days digging deep into the Call of Duty Black Ops 3 beta. I’ve sunk maybe 10-15 hours into the multiplayer experience, and having skipped the past few Call of Duty titles, I was expecting to be rewarded with an evolved experience, but instead I’m met with an frankensteinian amalgamation of several shooters I’ve played before. Black Ops 3 doesn’t change the series, not that I was necessarily expecting it to, but I was hoping it’d be a different direction than Advanced Warfare, and is instead just moving backwards."
