Rating issues
The local and online multiplayer variant of the game contains gameplay that has been identified as portraying the worst of the violence. Players participate as members of a team and as such can kill or injure any other team member. Whether this is achieved by shooting or an explosion the character attacked will react accordingly, when shot a large splash of blood will be seen and the character falls to the ground; if blown up a large cloud of blood will appear and the character will disappear. During online play, if the number of participants is large then the scale of death or injury seen on screen will increase exponentially.
