With a lot of love, the game has a sizeable chunk of it being called buggy. Thus, it is now a matter of debate on whether the game is actually good or bad. And the answer to that is, somewhat in between.
Call of Duty MWII early access gets a polarizing response
The fact that the game is just around the corner and fans have found some major bugs in the game is terrifying. Not because it might affect the sales, but because it might affect the hopes of the millions of fans who waited for this game for so long. But as it is said, sometimes some things are so big that they can’t fail, it seems the same for Call of Duty‘s latest iteration.
Some fans believe the game to be a modern masterpiece, while others believe it to have some significant problems. One of the most notable flaws that several fans encountered was in a truck versus car chase scene, where blowing up a truck that is blocking traffic can result in a random animation playing, giving the player a buggy experience.

While on one hand, we had fans who said that the experience was mediocre, most said that the gameplay is simply brilliant. The main issue that most encountered was the tediously long missions and the armored enemies who were a bit strong to kill.
Pretty mediocre to be honest. Plenty of audio and visual bugs. Visuals overall were sub par. AI is laughable. Dialog and story are super cheesy middle school stuff. Stealthy bits and crafting feel super out of place and forced. Gunplay is excellent though.

High praises from a lot of people here,
The graphics were awesome, VA was awesome, the overall storyline was great.But, and considering this is an interactive media this is important.
The gameplay, armored enemies ruined it for me and some missions were just tedious.
7/10

Why is it so alarming?
The fact that the game is just a few hours away from releasing worldwide can be a point of excitement but if the cases of bugs that are reported are to be believed, it can get messy. As recently, most games have been getting such releases, fans can find it hard to believe that such a potent game has to face such a release.
