Although a lot of people don't like the staggering of content, I'm ok with it because it limits the amount of things that are new in one go, Making it easier for someone like me who isn't an online shooter veteran.
I even like the way they limit the maps. There's always 1 map that you end up not liking and you just don't pick it (i wasn't fond of the skatepark to start with), but having been forced to play the level I actually quite like it now.
In fact this is probably the first game where i have liked all the maps.
