this is pretty funny because if you look at the game in its core cod was more creative. im just talking about the parentheses here. did doom have 10 multiplayer modes, all sorts of ranks and stuff? no, it didn't, maybe it had levels, but it didn't. it was a shooter.

that's not what defines an SMG...?

a-91 is in the same boat as the XM8, it looks cool as hell but is functionally not that great

M416 is Heckler and Koch's version of the M4 carbine. The M16A3 is an automatic version of the M16A2. M16A4 is an improvement of the M16A2, the only difference is that it has Picatinny rail.
The US army uses the M4 for all infantry. The M16A4 is used by the US marine corps as it's service rifle. The M16A3 has limited use with the navy sea bee's. Also the M416 has some use I the USMC as an autorifle to replace the m249 saw, SEE IAR.

so what? that isn't the core gameplay, that's a bunch of stuff the developers did to make up for how unbearably simple the core gameplay is. ranks and stuff is just something to give the people who jack off to achievements a way to see how much time they've played the game. the 10 multiplayer modes are irrelevent (unless you want to go there, domination is broken, kill confirmed is broken, search and destroy is probably the only decent one that people play and that isn't tdm).
if you're talking about creativity, then call of duty certainly wasn't the first one to introduce ranks or 10 multiplayer modes.
again, gaming has regressed more than most people think because doom (in my opinion atleast) wasn't the best old first person shooter. marathon had non-linear levels with multiple endings, the first first person shooter to have dual wielded weapons, reloading, and probably one of the top 5 stories in video games.
