    Also, i looked past the 80gb download file at first, but then a week later i have a 20gb update. These people need to consider that people are running ssd & m.2 drives. How can a game that only features multiplayer be so big. I would say very badly optimised.
    Lastly local player base is not very big so have to wait ages for a blackout game. Again this comes down to the fact that this game costs a fortune.
    Buy counter strike or pubg, you will have move fun for more than half the price.    … Expand

    I can't enjoy the "fun" gameplay because it's unplayable at 4K despite my 16 cores + RTX 2070.
    Maxed out in 1080p it looks like crap with aliasing despite having it maxed out, visual glitches, lags, strange effects, soft textures.

    It's frustrating to see streamers "enjoy" it with nice visuals while I can't even play the game properly. It look like we don't have the same game.

    I'm bashing COD as much as I'm sure I can feel activision's fist tickling my internal organs.    … Expand

    - No Campaign.
    - Horrible Graphics.
    - Body Armor.
    - Specialists.
    - Bad hit detection.
    - Shoot first, die first.
    - Unlimited sprint.

    I only have 80 minutes in the game thus far, but already I witnessed multiple instances of other player characters teleporting when you try to hit them. Even without the net code issue, I'd say this game is terribly boring. Also, the waves and waves of 14 yos and their language..

    The publisher:
    I tried to get a refund for performance issues. Got response from . As a mature gamer I like to talk to a person, not to "Illidan Stormrage", thank you.
    It turns out their refund policy is utter garbage. The GM told me that for the refund I need to have less than 30 minutes of play time. Half of that time I spent with my friends in the game launcher trying to overcome the issue of the game saying some of us were "not joinable" and after the first match there was already more than 30 minutes in the counter. There is no way you can actually try different graphic settings within 30 minutes. There is no way you can actually test what's the quality level of an online shooting game within 30 minutes. The return policy is for you only if the game is so **** up you can't even enter the main menu.

    Don't buy from the Activion-Blizzard store unless you're absolutely sure of the purchase! Your money is lost after you click 'purchase'. Steam and GOG actually give you time to try the product.

    tl;dr: boring, buggy, waves of 14 yos, can't get refund. I very, very strongly recommend to get your games from other marketplaces for better customer protection.    … Expand

There are "operator" gadgets and abilities that should never have been put into the game, actually the whole operator **** thing should have stayed off of this game in the first place. The netcode is garbage and I will sometimes see people teleporting slightly ahead instead of seeing fluid motion. It's next to unplayable if you want to take this game seriously. It could be a fun game, but they managed to not fix the frustrating **** that plagued every COD game since Modern Warfare 1. And they're left with a piece of **** game that will tire out most people in just a few months, or in my case, weeks. Terrible FPS experience where skill does not matter because it's so horrendously flawed.… Expand

    When you do get a match however it feels unfinished and the worst of all the modes is their battle royal mode blackout. the guns in black out are extremely unbalanced for the game mode they are in.

    Team death match can still be fun SOMETIMES but the immersion is broken with the terrible sounding guns and minimal customization options for your characters.

    i can NOT find anything to love about this game, yes it has some pretty graphics and can sometimes quench your need for a new cod but i would highly suggest going back to black ops 2 and 3 as they are 100% better than this.

    Treyarch if you're reading this then PLEASE next time do not look at whats hot and throw it in, do what you have done with your previous black ops give it a great story with great action and suspense, DO NOT make it Multiplayer only because that has killed this game.

    And for anyone who is wondering, no i am NOT bagging on the studio, they have done incredible work in the past and i believe they can do it again with black ops 5 or whatever cod or other game they might do next.    … Expand

    I don't understand how the game has a 3.6 score. It's not the best game you will ever play but it certainly doesn't deserve a 3.6 score.

It's not the best game you will ever play but it certainly doesn't deserve a 3.6 score. I was never a fan of the black ops series, and really stopped playing after all call of duty games after I played Ghosts, which lasted maybe a week because I hated that game. But I decided to give this one a shot because I had some friends who were interested in the Blackout mode in this game. Here is my opinion for what its worth.

    Multiplayer: It feels the same as all other multiplayer call of duty games. Fast paced and you die a ton. Comparing it to older games such as Modern Warfare 2 (my favorite) it seems that you die much more often. Thinking back on how I used to get the Nuclear Bomb and kill everyone on the map pretty often, this game seems like it would be WAY harder to get. Also, getting my kill streaks seems to be more difficult in this game. The multiplayer still puts me in a rage like any other call of duty game. It could be me, but every Duty game I've played seems that if you are on a server more than likely you the match is won in a landslide. One team completely obliterates the other team. Maybe because one person on another team is hosting the server? I'm not sure...

    Blackout: Blackout is a fun battle royale game. I don't know what all the hate is about but I really do enjoy it. I'm not very good at it as I only have 2 wins in i'd say about 300 games but I still enjoy playing it. It's probably the best realistic battle royale game out IMHO.

    Zombies: I've only played it once because I don't enjoy this mode. So I won't give an opinion on it.

    Them cutting out the story mode doesn't matter to me because I literally never played the story mode on any call of duty game ever. The fact that I can go back and forth between the battle royale more and multiplayer is great. When I get frustrated with blackout I jump on multiplayer. But really though, I feel like you get your $60.00 worth for this game because both modes are pretty fun, and I'm usually very critical of games.

    Cons:
    #1 The damn skins! The skins aren't even that appealing so I don't really try for them, but man are they damn near impossible to get! You can unlock skins for players in blackout mode. But its all randomized. You have to find certain items in the battlefield and complete tasks. Example: Find a neckless in a supply drop, kill a person with a shotgun, and kill someone with a melee OR Find a stained t-shirt and activate an alarm that might be all the way across the map and finish top 10 or something. These don't seem very hard, but they are EXTREMLEY difficult to accomplish to the point where I don't even care to unlock skins, because they aren't even cool enough for me to care.

    #2 Some servers on multiplayer are ridiculous. I can be on a team with a prestige master level 145 and he will go 3-18, while someone on the other team is level 7 going 24-7. This is how its always been I suppose. But it just seems like if you are on a certain team its much easier to kill players. I can hit someone with a full clip in the back and have to reload and they turn around and kill me. But every so often when you are on that right side of the scoreboard, you will rack up the kills and unlock all those kill streaks and walk away feeling very satisfied.    … Expand

    It's not a 10 and it's not a zero. It does some things well, but Frankly I miss the Older gameplay.

    I only bought this for Blackout. It's ok...has good core gameplay, but the guns take getting used to, since they are all "new" to me, apart from maybe an AK...the rest are weird futuristic crap. It needs tweaking IMO

    Gunfights feel like a coin flip. I find it hard to play aggressive unless I know I have someone outgunned at landing, because I prefer hardcore mode and it takes 10 hits to kill someone. There's so much luck finding the best weapons, trauma kits, armor etc involved. Vehicles are pretty good....but trucks are too slow, ATVs are twitchy. Helis fly great though.

    There are so many attachments, perks, equipment, health packs, armor etc, it's a lot to keep track of for a fast paced game. But Blackout is slow compared to Multiplayer, which is absolute chaos mostly. Then toss in specialists and it's just too much stuff in a frenetic fast paced game.

    Matchmaking sucks. I'm like level 19 and since level 1 I'm playing against prestige players in MP. It's like everyone's a pro. Where are the noobs? I was a top 10% player in BO1 and I feel like a noob in this game. No manual, NO DISC. Huge download day 1. I have some games where I get a 4-1 KD, but then it's reversed if I'm on a crappy team or a map I hate. I usually have no problem holding my own to at least 1-1 in any shooter game...but this feels too random often times.

    Unlocking is slow, so the guns are not very even
    Get rid of the combat knife....worse than MW2 with speedy stealth players running around stabbing you and don't die from bullets

    **** missiles don't do damage to players, but knife or axe kills you instantly.

    Guns take forever to kill someone with armor and then they can instantly heal back to 150 health hiding behind a tree for 3 seconds. Ridiculous. Just get rid of armor. Ruins the game. No benefit hardly to being first shot or tactical play. Guy who can heal faster and has better armor wins. Also PING, and CPU probably play a big part.

    Games crash, but not too frequently....1 in 25-30 rounds maybe.

    The good.
    Blackout is pretty fun, but frustrating most of the time
    Sound effects great (footsteps inconsistent)
    Love the Blackout Map..nice variety of terrain. Looks good in 720p even on 27" and run at 90-115 FPS with RX560, Ryzen 5 2400G. After 30+ hours of play at least There are places I still haven't explored and always finding new places hidden away.

    I could care less about skins, sprays, emotes and **** like that. Games too fast paced to even use them if you wanted to. Player models are too similar....and why the **** can't we go back to teams having distinct/different uniforms? Friends/Foes all look similar mostly.

    Graphics are ok, but too much stuff flying in the air like birds that look like UAVs to distract.

    BAD
    Matchmaking
    Intermittent crashes/disconnects
    Coinflip gunfights
    MP only 5 v5
    Spawns always suck in COD TDM/KC
    No Sabotage
    Maps not suitable for all types of games
    Killstreaks are meh and hard to achieve compared to prev. games
    Specialists in MP are stupid. Too much non gunplay crap going on.
    OP knives
    Sniping takes 2-3 shots to kill in Blackout and MP
    Running/movement is smooth, but needs to be slowed for map sizes.
    Rockets not effective against players

    If you're stupid enough to buy DLC, Skins and Passes, you deserve what you get. I won't be buying any of that crap and I don't understand the appeal. I wish they just kept MW1 or MW2 and just added maps/content, rather than refresh the same game every year.. Games like Insurgency have better gun play/effects. Not that CODBO4 is all bad, but they are a AAA game...they should be top notch.

    Weapons need balancing
    Armor needs balancing
    Need to nerf the healing time
    Maybe a Hardcore Blackout version? or just remove Armour/remove (or nerf) health I'd love to see a Multiplayer capture the flag on the blackout map 32v32 players (or at least 16v16). It would be a blast chasing a flag carrier in an ATV, Helicopter and shooting vehicle to vehicle in pairs or squads...having to cross bridges or swim the rivers would be a blast...using the tunnels etc. I don't care about SP or Zombies personally...Like I just said above, some MP options on the BIG Blackout map would be fun...even if it were TDM or Sabotage. Screw the small crappy maps. It would be good practice using weapons, perks, explosives and help learn the map for Blackout as a benefit. VERDICT Don't buy it for MP.. Blackout is 80% there though.    … Expand

    i think activision may have been better off launching a stand alone battle royal game.
    Blackout is incredible 10//10 combines fast paced as well as tactical game play creating a very large skill gap.

    However the multiplayer is dull and the abilities the characters have are very odd feeling like they dont belong. 4/10

    And after many years of zombies it has grown stale to me. 5/10

    another problem is the high amount of bugs, glitches and crashes. even now, 4 weeks after release its a technical mess. every second or third lobby kicks you out of the loading screen while loading in to a map. in 6 hours you can also expect a total game crash fatal eror 451518515 or something like that. weapon camos are not attached to your weapons etc. hit detection sometimes feels off, way more than in every previous cods that i played. optimization is ok i guess, cant rly say much because i play with a 1080 on most of the time with 140+fps, but i feel 3-4 maps are worse optimized than the rest.

    one of the sadest things however is, they (treyarch) said they do pc balancing seperate from console balancing. but so far we have got all the console balancing on pc too with some small pc exclusive changes. this makes 0 sense and this makes me rly angry. and by all the problems the gamecurrently has in multiplayer, you would expect communication and discussions from the devs right? but no, there basically is no communication from them, or a dev or whatever who talks or discusses things on reddit with the community.they made 500 million dolla in the first 3 days after release, now they are in vacation or something. they promissed to make a good pc port and work more than ever on the pc version, all lies.

    oh ya i almost forgot, the microtransactions. this game costs 60 euro, has a 50 euro season pass and additional microtransactions. WTF if you ask me. when the new mutiplayer maps are beeing released and you want to play them, you ahve to pay 50 euro for the pass, because you cant just buy a map pack, you have to buy the whole pass. the afforementioned microtransaction however, are basically not wiorth to buy. cosmetics and other rewards in this game are so low quality and not worth any cent.

    and all of this is why this is the first cod that releases not on steam, its the same like fallout 76. these games are **** and they are scared for negative reviews because they know it.    … Expand

It's flashy at first glance, designed to impress and draw you in but, ultimately, it feels empty and disappointing unless you are ready to spend more money to go "all in". The influence of Activision's bottom line is apparent in this game to the point that it distracts, which is a shame, because the shell of this thing is still just as promisingly solid as it was with Black Ops 2.

    The Multiplayer game play is solidly “Black Ops”. You spawn, shoot, progress, and repeat, which is as rewarding as it has ever been, for better or worse. Each level of progression gained grants you a new toy to equip and play with and each new toy typically has different attachments to earn, as has been the norm with CODs since time immemorial. As in other Black Ops titles, one can "Prestige" their player level and gear, trading off the minor inconvenience of having to unlock everything again with the benefits of unique identity markers, a permanent unlock token, and unspoken bragging rights. On a side note for weapon progression: The Operator Mod feature, new to the Black Ops series, allows the player to modify a weapon in ways that change its fundamental performance, sometimes to its benefit but also, sometimes, to its detriment. Barring balancing issues, this feature has a lot of potential and should be considered a "keeper" for the series going forward. It keeps weapons that may have started to grow stale a little more “fresh”.

    In addition to Multiplayer, the Blackout and Zombies modes are satisfyingly robust for what they are. Very little change is needed to make these formulas work.
    The multiple Zombies scenarios are interesting, if not a little convoluted, and I can see myself trying to puzzle them out for many months to come, most likely eventually caving in and looking up strats on youtube. One important note on Zombies: If possible, ensure you have a good group of online friends that will talk to you. Playing solo and silent is a singularly depressing experience.

    Blackout is what probably drew a lot of the pre-sale numbers we're seeing and some of that hype is well-deserved. The map is solid and the movement around it feels properly athletic. Even out in the dangerous open, you don’t feel completely vulnerable. Aside from some minor item spawn problems, a typical Blackout experience is an enjoyable one, regardless of preferred BR play style. I do enjoy the inclusion of tier rewards in Blackout, since it’s really the only place you can utilize the numerous gestures (what happened to emoting on a “winner’s circle screen at the end of Multiplayer rounds, Treyarch?!?!) and sprays that seems to fill the Black Market inventory to the brim. Having played a fair bit of PUBG and Fortnight, I personally think Blackout is the best version of BR out there right now.

    Alas, Activision’s gonna Activision, so those enjoyable elements predictably deliver a fleeting and hollow satisfaction when shadowed by the COMPLETELY AVOIDABLE drawbacks present in Black Ops 4.
    The game still crashes regularly in all modes, usually when the action gets intense and you are fully invested in ducking, dodging, and diving. When a crash happens, all progression gained during that round is lost. Nothing is worse than making it to a top 5 situation in Blackout, specialist achievement requirements met for an unlock, 10 kills under your belt, only to suffer a dreaded “Jaded Mamba” error. It wouldn’t be as bad if we still got to keep our progression but, again, Black Ops 4 fails to meet basic expectations and leaves us wanting more.

    OK, the big one. The main contention, BY FAR, I have with Black Ops 4 is the micro transaction and Black Market tier reward schemes. Regardless of what your opinion is on if the rewards are worth it, this is a clearly manipulative system designed to coerce players with more money than sense into spending to achieve higher rewards. In a free to play game, this behavior could be considered acceptable, but Black Ops 4 is not a free to play game. It is disgusting to require players to pay at least $60 for the opportunity to pay more for content that is locked behind additional pay walls.

    In conclusion, Activision, you've done it again. You've taken a solid game play experience with a rich history and continued to chip away at everything people love about it in an attempt to make more money. I hope it comes back to bite you in the ass one day.    … Expand

    This game feels like it's free to play competition and I mean this in multiple ways, firstly the gameplay:
    This games UI tricks you into thinking this game will play solid as its well designed and shows off tonnes of weapons and abilities and cool slick new characters, it doesn't, the game feels like a bad free to play game, the time to kill is so high that I thought I was playing World of Tanks. (ha, get it?)

    With discount servers, poor hit detection and balance that seems it was formulated under the influence of certain substances, this game really does feel hollow and fundamentally broken.

    With the "boots on the ground promise" freshly on my mind I was surprised to find out that this game has more frantic movement in it than Fortnite, players jumping around and sidestepping at high speeds paired with terrible servers makes this game feel just "Ugh".

    Again with the comparison to free to play shooters, this games cosmetics are mostly locked behind a "battlepass" type build where players must complete challenges and earn EXP in order to unlock cool looking character and weapon skins.

    While you don't have to pay monthly like fortnite for it, it's extremely slow (some believe purposefully) to entice players to buy COD coins? COD gold? COD points? whatever they are called to push progression further forward. (Games as service remember guys)

    Now onto one of the biggest reasons for my low score. Optimization, the game runs at a solid 120fps or 60fps when i enabled the framelimiter, I do not have performance issues with this game.

    I have massive stability issues instead, my game never crashes but the game does try to use 100% at all times of my CPU (I5 7500) and will freeze and microstutter every so often.

    This made the game unplayable for a good 3 months since release until 2 days ago Nvidia stepped in to fix the game with a Driver update, because Beenox are terrible at porting games.

    This all said, the 2 actual points i'm giving this review belong to the Zombies modes, extremely well done, love the storytelling of a mindless gamemode, it shows that the team who works on it are actually competent.

    The Blackout mode is basically PUBG with the muitiplayer assets so no credit there.

    2/10 Activision should have an In-house studio working on PC games, with that much raw resource and pull they have no excuse for a game this horrible. How the critics gave this anywhere over 5 really is an indictment on how corrupt game journalism is.

    'Black Ops 4 brings nothing new to the gaming industry'.

    If you're looking for a quick FPS that's full of old elements of gameplay from its predecessors, look no further. As one of many of Call of Duty's longtime playing fans, I was utterly disappointed with the approach the developers had taken with this game from the start.

    If you're looking for a quick FPS that's full of old elements of gameplay from its predecessors, look no further. As one of many of Call of Duty's longtime playing fans, I was utterly disappointed with the approach the developers had taken with this game from the start. The hasty decision to remove a Singleplayer campaign, accompanied with the return of three remastered predecessors' maps was a show of laziness in several areas of the game. Adding Blackout to this game (Battle Royale mode) is, seemingly, pushing players away from the base multiplayer game modes. By sacrificing the game's singleplayer, it evidently loses elements of purpose and a 'hey I've been here before on campaign' moment.

    Call of duty's biggest selling point was its storyline (including Black Ops), where the singleplayer acted as a training ground to encourage players to take in the environment around them.

    The preorder sales seem to be judging this game as good, but in reality, people are buying this game for the 'fortnite' element and not for the mutiplayer modes. It seems that Activision has taken the simple approach of making as much as they can, with no regard to the quality of what their making, as we've seen with their previous games in the past.

    The departure of Directors and people with a focus for quality storylines and gameplay like Robert Bowling (forever remembered as Modern Warfare's mastermind) and Dave Anthony (Black Ops' mastermind) has clearly taken a toll on the game's future and direction.

    Activision needs to have a serious meeting with their directors or find new ones with a mindset for building quality, jawdropping, and realistic gameplay that will draw back from its roots to regain its lost fanbase. The new fanbase that its attracting (fortnite/battle royale players) is putting its future at risk with competing with games that have a sole player base and purpose, and could knock Blackout with infrastructure improvements.

    Overall this game for me is a 'Do Not Touch' as nothing has improved or changed since CoD WW2 or Black Ops 2.    … Expand

    (MULTIPLAYER MODE) The FIRST fps in the world ladies and gentlemen that the ''AK-47'' look alike future weapon requires a full magazine to kill the other player. And also the FIRST fps that you have a $%#& shotgun that shoots fire bullets which also the best shooting range that any sniper in all fps games.

    Multiplayer keeps the classic mediocre gameplay we've come to expect from the CoD franchise, this time being incredibly unbalanced with a fairly limited selection of guns. The specialist system means classic equipment like grenades or the specialist equipment both have incredibly long cool-downs and you must choose between one or the other in class creation. Instead of specialist abilitiesMultiplayer keeps the classic mediocre gameplay we've come to expect from the CoD franchise, this time being incredibly unbalanced with a fairly limited selection of guns. The specialist system means classic equipment like grenades or the specialist equipment both have incredibly long cool-downs and you must choose between one or the other in class creation. Instead of specialist abilities being a balanced, frequent use ability that defines your character's play-style, they're instead a one or two-per-game chance at high power that can immediately be taken away if you die mid-ability. While specialists could've innovated and improved Call of Duty's dated gameplay, it doesn't -- if anything it makes it worse.

    Blackout, perhaps one of the biggest selling points for this year's CoD, combines the worst parts of Call of Duty with the worst parts of Battle Royale. There can be very fun moments in Blackout, however they are surrounded by waiting in lobbies and walking/travel simulators. In gameplay, there is a huge dependence on finding the right gear, and many fights turn into "shooting each other until the person with higher damage/defense wins". The fast-paced gameplay and movement doesn't mesh very well with the slower Battle Royale style, and it is too RNG heavy to be consistently enjoyable.

    And then there's Zombies. I like Zombies - some people may not enjoy the changes to perks/gobblegum/health/etc, but I've had a good time with it. But while three maps is more than what we've gotten in previous games, it is still too little to be worth buying this game at $60 if you're solely interested in Zombies, especially considering the fourth map is locked behind a $50 season pass.

    And there's no campaign. Admittedly I'm not too upset by this, as CoD campaigns have been nothing better than "okay" for several years, but I know there are plenty of people who are.

    So what is this game? A boring, full-priced $60 game, with a $50 all-or-nothing season pass that means if you're only interested in a part of the DLC, you have to pay the full price for everything. Oh, and there's microtransactions -- It uses Fortnite's model while still expecting you to pay $110 if you want the rest of the content. All while being on the sluggish Battle.Net launcher that seems to require an update every time you start it.

    But hey, at least 1/3rd of the game is fun.    … Expand

    Nothing to write home about but equaly nothing to screech about on the internet. Incredibly unbalanced , but to be expected from COD at this point.

    Having played BO 2 and 3 previous and being satisfied with both games I have to say that I have had a horrible experience with this one.
    After playing for now 25 Hours (I did not wanna put myself through more of that) I have concluded that BO 4 is a poorly optimized, badly balanced and laggy mess.
    Right from the start after downloading the arguably pretty large 80 Gigabyties I found myself in a pretty confusing yet empty UI.
    After adjusting my settings for a while I decided to try out Blackout.
    Shortly after the waiting time a completely unrendered Map (Loadingtime map rendering is enabled) and it was lagging horribly. After jumping out of the Helicopter with the same lag and unrendered Map I landed and finally after a good 20 seconds the map rendered, poorly and very slowly.
    After I then died due to me being unable to move and my character bound to unexplainably just walking to the left for a good minute I was already pissed.
    In those 25 hours overall I have (atleast tried) to play 3 matches of blackout all went the same way as the first one.
    Okay now Zombies, it doesnt run as bad as blackout though it does majorly framedrop from time to time but sadly I have been unable to finish a single game of Zombies yet due to it crashing everytime in the middle of a game regardless of the map im playing.
    Although I though Zombies was generally the most enjoyable experience over all it was more annoying than fun.
    Multiplayer... What the ****
    The netcode is a joke, an absolute joke.

    I find this game to be unplayable just like BO3.

    It takes forever to shoot someone while I die instantly (or I get easy kills without even aiming properly), everybody keeps jumping super high (I get it, I have to do that too, but it feels stupid to jump the moment you see enemy) and somehow it's impossible to shoot them while they do it (I swear I aimed correctly but no shots    I find this game to be unplayable just like BO3.

    It takes forever to shoot someone while I die instantly (or I get easy kills without even aiming properly), everybody keeps jumping super high (I get it, I have to do that too, but it feels stupid to jump the moment you see enemy) and somehow it's impossible to shoot them while they do it (I swear I aimed correctly but no shots registered), everybody is teleporting, I swing my mouse randomly hoping my shots will register, because I don't even know where enemies are, they don't move smoothly, they just teleport!

    Nearly ever game is one-sided where one team has lag compensation advantage and dominates, it's harder to make any come back, because once one team starts to dominate they just spam all their specialist abilities and scorestreaks, there's so much stuff trying to kill you, you don't even have time for objectives - specialist abilities make it too snowbally for a winning team.

    Specialists are annoying to deal with, because you can't counter their abilities, Ajax running with shield at you - you die, Ruin uses spikes - you die, electric shock projectile hits you - you crawl and die, 9 bang hits you - you die, electric shock car catches you - you die.

    This games pace is also super fast, there are old maps reworked, but I don't remember action in BO1 or 2 was so hectic.

    Spawns are messed up, you get spawn trapped or you spawn right in front of enemy.

    Black Out sucks, you have to camp hard and scan the horizon for enemies constantly, it takes too much time and is boring because you can always die to someone coming from some weird direction, I don't know why people find it fun.

    Zombies I never play and I will probably not touch it since they made it really complicated with crafting and different modes (and killing waves of zombies is boring).

    To me this game is in the same category as BO3 and Infinite Warfare - CODs that I have barely played.

    PS. I didn't mention the story mode, because when I saw that ultra rich oligarch is some attractive woman and best of the best special forces soldiers are females (with pink hair!) it just felt too stupid to continue. It's all SJW trash for idiots.    … Expand

    Blackout: It's fun - the saving grace of this release.

    Standard multiplayer: A nauseating blend of poorly balanced maps, weapons, arcade style gun play, 'special' [magic] abilities, bunny hopping, knee-sliding, quick scoping, akimbo-wielding, 'score streaks' and 'operators' [heroes?].

    In other words, it's a giant f***ing mess.

    Like all the CoD's from the past 10 years, this is a casual fps experience which rewards unrealistic and arcade style play - bunny hopping around a corner and quick scoping an opponent sounds fine, except the hit boxes are huge and the reticle barely needs to cross the body for the shot to register as a hit.

    This is quite common for console FPS games, which have to mitigate for the lack of dexterity/accuracy a controller provides, but on PC feels cheap and unskilled.

    At this rate, this game will likely lose 90% of it's current player base within 6 months, leaving roughly 5k people worldwide on pc, not unlike every other CoD for the past decade. If you like playing TDM for the next +/- year until the next cod release, go right ahead.

    I would say otherwise if they removed all the perks and abilities, operators and score streaks, and took this back to being a bare bones fps (where it came from) - but that won't happen. Even if the game is losing millions of players per release, so long as it sells a million on consoles, it will continue to be based around that demographic.

    The gameplay is not better. 20Hz tickrate makes it unplayable. But that has been fixed now. Killstreaks give rewards such as Bombardmends, automatic turrets etc. This means the better team gets massive additional firepower, and the weaker team gets really devastated. So if you are in the inferior team, prepare to suffer.
    This leads me to the next problem: players quit as soon as they see they are in the weaker team. Understandable, who wants to get kicked in the ass by the soon coming enemy rewards? This means that often its a 1 or 2v5 in multiplayer. Sounds like fun? Not to me...
    There seems to be no balancing. Either you are the far superior team, or you get pounded.
    In addition, the game rewards you playing more by unlocking weapon and general perks. Meaning the longer you play, the deadlier your weapons and your character become. So this is again a slaughterfest for new players. yaaay. I've grinded myself through the process to get the best weapons, and let me tell you, it is a night and day difference. Still, all that kept me motivated was getting better stuff, so the game would suck less. And it does, but it still sucks.
    The weapons do have different effective engagement distances, and need different playstyles, which is good I guess. There is always one weapon that is far far superior to the others. Guess how long it takes to unlock the best low to midrange weapon (the dubble uzi like weapon)? Yes, you have to level up all the way.

    The multiplayer maps are small and built in a way that you cannot jump on a lot of objects. It is very restrictive. You have to learn what you can and cannot do in these maps.
    The graphics are very "plasticy". Other games have far superior visuals. If the game does not crash, however, it is very smooth and I did not detect many framedrops.

    Zombie mode is ok. Battle royale still suffers from a very low tickrate, so is no fun to play,

    I wish I could return the game. I will never buy another CoD. In a year the player base is probably gone just like with the older cods. Needless to say, if the tickrate in the beta was as low as it is now, and if I could have played the multiplayer part, I would NEVER have purchased it.

Than the last MP when u max that mp u can put akimbo on it, and u can play it on EVERY SINGLE MAP cause they are soooo small and u kill people within 0.001 sec. U have absolutely no chance.
    Server are lagging some times. Some cheaters, and battery ult, shooting where she wants and killing the whole team,
    I want to give that game below zero points but i cant, so its gonna be a 0 cuz after all these years, they STILL cant do spawnsystem right TOO.
    I am so tired of this **** and tired getting spawn raped and i spawn right in front of my enemy or beside him and just die or i spawn right in front of his crosshair. Its absolutely no fun to play this game. Just make maps bigger and maybe we will not have this problem but idk man.
    This Game is just a 0 to me. Garbage game, Garbage company.

    The only good thing in this game is the use of some weapons. They feeld smooth but they are so much shiit things in this game, i cant even give a 1/10.

    I have 7 hours on this game and i am going to delete Black ops 4. Even with my 2.43 K/D i am raging every single match, mostly cause of the spawnsystem and those **** shotguns and that gaay asss shield.

That being said, in multiplayer, I have never seen a game so reward cancerous gameplay. Shotguns that 1 shot at long range, snipers that are literally programmed to one-shot from the waist up. Headshots don't matter in this game in the slightest. On top of that, it actually punishes players for aiming down their scopes. More people run around hip firing and getting headshots then people who aim down their scopes get head shots. The hit detection is horrendous. Multiplayer is absolutely frustrating with the crazy overpowered weapons the later levels get, like the akimbo smg that requires no aiming, and melt's enemy's health in fractions of seconds. Multiplayer has turned to Halo style jump and run with the progression mechanics of an MMO. Where you'll be terrible for the first 45 levels, until you get a gun that can compete. EDIT: Upon further playing of Multiplayer, the sheer amount of server lag has made it unplayable. You'll dropp fromm 100 frames to 0 for 5 seconds and back again. One friend of mine, who has a far better rig than mine, can't even play without being lagged out. The amount of bugs has destroyed this game.… Expand

    Terrible connection issues. From in-game issues, to post game issues (the game crashes after the game so you loose all the XP). The terrible overall connection ruins the game completely since it's now fully multiplayer oriented. It's funny how they make a fully multiplayer game with the worst connection of all.

    The game constantly crashes (and when it crashes you lose all progress of the round ofc - regardless if it's black out or MP), party invites work only 60-70% of the time, Updates are being pushed like crazy making us constantly quit the game to update client, and servers run on 20Hz meaning what you see is not in line with the damage you make or take - making it possible to "shot enemies around the corners" as some would say.

    Graphics are really Sh**ty almost no progress system in black out (BR) - just some character skins that u unlock at really high levels that are not easy to come by or by doing some stupid hard things before winning a match.

    All in all I payed 60$ for a Triple A title, and got something worse and with less content than an indie studio can (AND HAS) develop like PUBG.

    One last point, the Black Out map (yes only one!) is about the size of sanhok from PUBG so about 4x4 and given the fast paced gameplay that COD normally has that is WAY WAAAAAY to small. Literally no place you can parachute that is safe so you can learn the game or have time to check what attachments do and all that.

    Its more than obvious that Treyarch just want to get blackout out to everyone, so they can pay 60$ for the game, afterwards then totally rape everyone with skins and microtransactions.
    They removed singleplayer, they **** over the core players and they opted to cash in on the newest hype and ruined their franchise in the process.

    Everything feels half assed and its all because they clearly have focused 99% on blackout, then copied what they could from Black Ops 3 in terms of operators and art. New maps are HORRIBLE, worst in the series for the most of them, the reused old maps are clearly better than any of the new ones - its lazy to add them instead of making more maps - but its needed since they are a totally difference quality.

    Would I recommend it to anyone?

    This is my first time playing CoD. Having heard positive opinions from streamers and watched some of them play, I figured I might give the game a try. I have very limited experience in online FPS shooters, so I was curious how well does the game play and if I will I be able to compete. I spent a dozen hours playing the game's different modes.

    First of all, there is no single player,    This is my first time playing CoD. Having heard positive opinions from streamers and watched some of them play, I figured I might give the game a try. I have very limited experience in online FPS shooters, so I was curious how well does the game play and if I will I be able to compete. I spent a dozen hours playing the game's different modes.

    First of all, there is no single player, like most people have noted. That means your experience in this game will be limited to playing with and against others. I was OK with that, but in such situations I expect excellence in how the game does its multiplayer. Sadly, the game fails miserably.

    As a new player I was hoping to be eased into the game, play with others my or similar level, and get adequate training against bots, etc. None of this happened.
    The first few games were OK - I expected to under-perform, but as I got more and more into the game's mechanics, I realized how unpolished the entire experience is. Guns and characters are unbalanced, plain and simple. Some simply mow down enemies almost regardless of how far away they are, while some are useless and pretty terrible. It would be OK if I could get all the guns and mods immediately, but as lvl1, you have access to only a basic set of weapons. You just gotta play "like you have a pair" - as the game's commentator puts it, and get repeatedly mowed down by people 50 levels above you to start experimenting with other weapon setups. And while some of these people acquired some aim and tactical skill and will easily outplay you, some will just hold LMB and let ridiculous spray of their weapons take care of you without bothering to even follow you with their cross-hair. Also, some bullets round corners. Don't ask me how - I don't lag and the game runs smoothly on my hardware, so it defies reason.
    Also, don't get me started on stun grenades and explosives.

    The maps are OK if a bit dull. Most of them have very similar design so don't expect extreme variety.

    Character movements and animation are smooth and the game's controls are intuitive, albeit a bit more complex than what I'm used to.

    The UI is a bit of a mess.

    Music is ... there? I can't even remember, it feels so generic. Character voices are dull, sound design is weird. You can tell there is a lot of sound and they put effort into making it cool, but the end-result is a cacophony of poor post-production, as if they wanted to stuff it all in no matter what.

    And the training area for different characters, which doubles as a simple story is laughable at best, and insulting for the most part. The narrator really tries to be funny, ends up being cheesy and dry. The "story" itself is uninteresting and simplistic. They put a lot of effort into displaying vivid, mildly upsetting violence, and not enough into actually putting narrative meat on it.

    I liked how complex the zombies mode could be but by the time I got to it, I was fed up with the entire experience.

    I will not debate the game's price - it's a AAA game and you get a few modes, maps, and toys for that. It is unacceptable for me though, that for a game focusing only on multiplayer, it does it so poorly. It's simply not enjoyable.    … Expand

The lack of single player campaign is indeed a problem, no matter how much the media spins it. The multiplayer, you know is going to be gone come next Summer, as Call of Duty games don’t have the shelf life othe other competitive multiplayers, such as Rocket League, Overwatch, Rainbow Six Siege, even Battlefield.

    The graphics are last gen, there is some controller support but it’s abysmal (compared it to other PC competitive multiplayers). There are no tutorials nor training for new players, or players like me who returned after many new mechanics have been implemented. Single player campaign used to solve the tutorial problem in the past.

Buying a game is like an interactive book and the story is what I myself buy them for because I want to enjoy a good bit of fiction with a goal. Enough of this cookie cutter multiplayer crap with DLC hopes because every game previous to this that was mutiplaher has failed because it just became redundant trash. Honestly I truly think they play on the new gamers every year coming of age to play and parents keep buying this garbage to appease them. The gaming community is upside down with greed and the gamers suffer for it.

    Gone are the days of blockbuster engines that produce insanely beautiful and smooth graphics, now it’s being out an ancient overplayed engine and soon new models and call it a game again and again.

    I’m a PC gamer from the days of old and I spend thousands on new hardware annually to have the best. Then pieces of garbage like this come out and it has me wondering why the PC gaming community has shrunk so badly. Because you can’t return the game and the games coming out don’t require new hardware annually because of stale dated engines that produce the same crap over and over again in a different wrapper.

    Thanks Treyarch you’ve successfully trashed another once first class title and reduced it to a doorstop.

    Zombies, multiplayer and battle royale. Black Ops 4 is whole package. With great blackout map, brutal and honest action, it will put all competition in danger. Standard multiplayer suffers from old issues, but is fun enough to guarantee tons of fun. Zombies are brilliant and refreshed with new Rush mod. Lack of single player campaign still hurts though.

    It was a risky decision to drop the single player campaign and focus on multiplayer, including battle royale, which seemed like a cynical attempt to jump on the bandwagon. I’m a bit surprised to say that Treyarch did truly great. Black Ops 4 is one of the best online games of 2018 – its shooting mechanics are wonderful, Blackout (the aforementioned take on battle royale) is top-notch and the Zombies mode drifts towards... action RPG.
