Below, we have accumulated some of the most common complaints that the fans have for the series, which, according to them, is ruining the game.

Among the complaints, the most common was the minimap issue. Players desperately miss the traditional minimap with a red dot identifying their position. Even small online lobby nuances such as sprint cancel and reload cancel are also highly missed by fans in the newer titles.
