However, boots-on-the-ground warfare has not been cut \u2013 the seamless transition between the two types of battle is very impressive.<\/p>\n Retribution \u2013 while this is a great attitude to adopt for the game \u2013 it\u2019s also the name of the core world. From here you are able to view your progress and begin your quests \u2013 both primary and secondary, the latter is known as Ship Assaults.<\/em><\/p>\n So, you think that you\u2019re a Call of Duty<\/em> pro? Well, say hello to the YOLO feature! Health regeneration (without Nano Shots) goes out of the window and weapons can be shot out for hands; oh, and if you die, you\u2019re forced to restart the entire game \u2013 proceed with caution!<\/p>\n In multiplayer mode, you\u2019re going to find that the \u201cCombat Rigs\u201d have been re-worked; you\u2019ll have a choice between six rigs, each of which, have unique capabilities.<\/p>\n The weaponry has also evolved; this iteration introduces a weapon-crafting system; throughout the multiplayer mode, you can collect \u201cSalvage\u201d points, which will allow you to purchase prototype weapons; they are divided into classes: Common, Rare, Legendary and Epic and depending on the class your weapon falls into, you\u2019re rewarded with \u201cGun Perks\u201d.<\/p>\n Co-op multiplayer zombie mode \u2013 yes, you read that correctly. It\u2019s completely separate from the primary campaign \u2013 it has its story and mechanics.<\/p>\n All of these elements create an action-packed immersive experience that will have you putting in many hours of gameplay.<\/p>\n Pros: <\/strong>Space dogfight combat; incredible setting; side missions; missions are well structured; fascinating weapons; state-of-the-art visuals; great cast of characters<\/p>\n Cons: <\/strong>Seems very similar to Black Ops 3; frustrating micro-transaction system; short story campaign<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/blog.pricecheck.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/CoD-insert-300x300.jpg\")
