Not really. I love the more open approach that Crytek seems to favor, but I enjoy a good, cinematic rollercoaster experience as much as anyone. As long as it doesn't become a dull, slow and overly predictable ride, it's all good with me. If I'd fault IW for anything, it's that the company limits the abilities of the player character, creating something that feels pretty unrealistic for a supposed elite soldier. But the scripted scenarios don't bother me.
