Sending the enemies away before they even touch the ground is one satisfactory act to do in the game. In another clip, one player shared an explosion shot made from the R10 Ghostmaker from a range of 610m. It was just accurate.

Once, there was a time when both publishers were throwing surprises at each other, like in battles from the DragonBallseries. When players thoughtCoDwas winning with 2007’sModern Warfare, Electronic Arts came up withBattlefield 3. And such happened several times with other games.
The journey of both franchises almost gives the impression that they share a similar fate. However,Call of Dutyis still a step ahead as far as active players are concerned. 72K players are active in the game at press time. Nevertheless, both military shooters are preparing for their next entries in their respective franchises and will probably release the games in the next couple of years.
