Es un juegazo, pero brutal que Activision te venda un juego del 2015 a precio completo que además TIENE PROBLEMAS DE SEGURIDAD. Y no, no es un simple "te crasheo el juego/partida" y ya está, literalmente estos desperdicios de oxigeno de 200 kilos que hackean tocando un par de cositas, y si tenes la desgracia de estar en sus lobbies o en streaming te pueden meter codigo remoto a tu PC, lo que les permite instalarte malware, robarte contraseñas, cuentas del banco etc etc.. Si vas a comprar este juego por el multijugador no te lo recomiendo para nada estas tirando plata a la basura, está mas muer
