10. Getting Done Dirty By Terrible Spawns

Call of Duty has perfect its multiplayer suite over almost 15 years now, but for some reason it still completely craps the bed when it comes to the spawn points across maps. Granted, this usually only plagues new games at launch (the Sledgehammer developed titles are particularly bad for it), but it doesn't make it any less frustrating to have to put up with it year after year.

There's nothing worse than being on a roll, racking up kills, making the most of your surroundings and scraping through hectic firefights... only for an enemy (or a bunch of them) to spawn right in front of you and take you out before you even get a chance to react.

On the inverse it sucks just as much getting spawn trapped, killed as soon as your feet touch the ground.
