    zombies is by far the one of the best experiences ive ever had, so refreshing but multiplayer is what really killed the game for me because its so unbalanced, favors camping, maps are large, field upgrades are garbo it just doesnt feel like cod whatsoever. its another annual run of the mill cod, a mere cash grab

    This game in my honest opinion, as a cod veteran who has been playing the franchise on and off for 9 years, it is very over-hated.

    The biggest downfall of this game is some of the silly decisions Activision/developers have made revolving the multiplayer.

    two massive ones that are the real issue for the vast majority of us is the strict SBMM (skill-based matchmaking) and the fact that lobbies with randoms disband at the end of each game...

    the sbmm makes the game very competitive because you are being hammered to your skill ceiling 24/7, basically you can never catch a break! and the lobbies disbanding is just a sad reality, i have so many happy memories of trolling people and having a laugh and even making real friendships within matchmaking, but now you have to friend people and it ruins the experience, before you could all just chill and not leave the lobby and talk to a bunch of strangers, not anymore!

    with the negatives all said and done, zombies, campaign and multiplayer are all strong contenders this year, the zombies being a little easy but other than that, the 'trifecta' which makes Treyarch so great is true and strong in this call of duty title. Amazing campaign which i will play again when i have forgotten the plot in a year or so. the mp content, maps and gun play are really good.

    TLDR: That is all I have time for, a rather short review but it says all you need to know really. If you don't like being competetive, this game is not for you, even party games and jokey game modes are turned into a cesspool of CDL skins and sweaty gfuel-drinking cheese heads that use the most op create a classes.

    Campaign is nice but very, very short. Literally can finish it all in 2 evenings, doing all possible optional missions. Not sure it worth the asking price to be honest. So it's 4 points max for 60€ it is not enough of gameplay.

    Zombie part is completely pointless, idea-free, messed up running and shooting. 0 points for this.

    My whole review is only about MP, I never play anything else in CoD...

    As 6v6 MP only player I considered MW 2019 absolutely the worst CoD ever created. It had terrible maps with too many angles, terrible doors, infinite claymores with restock, no dead silence perk, TTK too fast, camping spots(even remastered maps were ruined with them), strong SBMM in casual playlist, washed out    My whole review is only about MP, I never play anything else in CoD...

    As 6v6 MP only player I considered MW 2019 absolutely the worst CoD ever created. It had terrible maps with too many angles, terrible doors, infinite claymores with restock, no dead silence perk, TTK too fast, camping spots(even remastered maps were ruined with them), strong SBMM in casual playlist, washed out graphics etc. It was the only CoD ever I almost refunded. It was like game itself decided if I kill or die.

    The last thing I ever wanted from CoD series is realism - the only reason I buy CoD is that it's casual fast paced arcady shooter, so I consider Cold War being huge improvement(to me every single CoD is masterpiece compared to last year MW). It's fast paced, maps are better(but not perfect), perks are more balanced, TTK is little bit slower(but still quite fast), there is just 1 land mine with long CD, game actually has some colors, camping is not the only way to play and it can be countered. It's CoD again and not Insurgency clone made for CoD haters and realism seekers. First 10 hours I had flawless experience - it reminded me times of BO1 and BO2 which are my most favorite CoD games. I wanted to go for 8+ rating but then thick skill based matchmaking kicked in and it ruined my experience with game little bit(and little bit more). Hard campers and sweats started to often fill my lobbies again(but at least whole game is not designed only for them). There should be casual playlist with weak or none SBMM and ranked with this kind of SBMM with ranks and extra rewards. Also on some maps there are flashing textures(sand on Satelite, mountains on Cartel). This was not happening on beta. There are also small bugs here and there like unlockable calling cards are not saved when you pick them. Another problem is lack of 6v6 maps on release so for now its like 6.5/10 for me untill everything is fixed. After that and when they add more maps it would be like 7.5/10. If they add also ranked and nerf SBMM in casual playlist I would go even for 8.5/10 easily. No performance problems at all on my side, runs exactly as MW (i7-7700k+1080Ti), 80-100 fps 1440p maxed out(tested MP only)

    EDIT: Changed rating from 7 to 2 just because of SBMM... It's not objective but I just can't do this anymore. I like game itself in general (much more than MW) but I absolutely refuse to sweat each and every single game to my maximum potential just to keep 1,2+ k/d in CASUAL playlist. I am not ranked player in any game - I HATE e-sport and ranked tryhard-meta trend, only reason I was playing COD was because it's casual MP game and it's not anymore. Game offers absolutely no choice in this matter, no ranked vs quick match playlist, there is only ranked without rank. Burn in hell for ruining this casual MP series and otherwise good game with system like this. I hope at least Battlefield will never give up on completly random server list system... I always liked COD more but this is just unbearable. Game itself decide who and when will do well or terrible in each match, not player skill. You had 2 good matches? Bad for you, next 2 you will be annihilated... You suck in 2 matches? Well, here is your candy - you will be rewarded with some easy game next. This is not even multiplayer, it's just singleplayer with adaptive difficulty with players carefully picked instead of bots.    … Expand

Well let's talk positives first the new graphics looks awesome, even compared to modern warfare this is a huge step up, the campaign is pretty great but way too short and why didn't they bring original woods and mason actors? And as the last positive thing zombies are decent remind me a lot to bo1 with dead ops arcade returning being a super entretaining mode improving upon bo1 and 3 in my opinion and the style of the game is beautiful, it seems really artistic. So there is all the positive stuff as a single player expierience, I'd say black ops Cold War is a solid 8.5/10 but there is a negative in single player, WHY TF DO I HAVE TO LEAVE MY CAMPAIGN OR ZOMBIES SOLO GAME IN ORDER TO PLAY WITH A DIFFERENT INPUT? What the hell treyarch? There is not even a match making going on if that is the excuse. So as you probably already notice, my huge problem with this game is the multiplayer and luckly they can be fixed but this is, and I'm dead serious , the worst CoD mp experience I've had past WWII. First off, the game only jas 8 maps so it's the second fewest amount that a CoD has had only surpassed by WWII, second the game has only 9 modes (those are pretty great btw major props) but where's gun game? Infected? CTF? Gunfight was promised to make it's return in this game but that's not the only unacomplished promise, Treyarch explicitly said they weren't going to put sbmm in this game and I have ran into sweaty people like no tomorrow, also in the beta lobbies didnt separate after the match so why does it happen now can I know? The connection and the performance of the game are worse than in the beta I lag so hard and the game have stuttering (even on the campaign and zombies), I change the graphics to low and still happens with a 2060 and I guess u can argue its not the most powerful card out there and that sbmm makes connection worse but why is it worse than the beta? Also hit detection is awful and worse than beta. The mp it self has decent maps great class customization and it's good overall but broken by sbmm, horrible weapon balance (evryone runs the freakin xm4), connection issues and awful hit detection. In conclusion, unless you're really thrilled to play a campaign set in the cold war with iconic characters like Mason, Hudson, Weaver and Woods, I'd say don't waste your 60 dollars YET cause as I said, this problems with the mp can be fixed and zombies and story are awesome. Update the more I played it the more cancer I got. This is the worst CoD MP ever made and Im being generous giving it a 5… Expand

    When purchasing this game you have to realize that multiplayer isn't everything, the campaign, at least for me is one of the best in the series. However, from a multiplayer POV it is just okay.

I do in fact like this zombies but I can see how it would be a hit or miss with some people. Some people forget the launch state of Modern Warfare which was not very good, this game is better but progression is slow and there needs to be more maps added as non-dlc maps. If they give it the same treatment as Modern Warfare then I think that this could turn out to be a great game. For right now, however, keep your money and wait to see what happens.… Expand

    So, to start things off, this is my first Black Ops game i've bought for myself, but have also played Black Ops 2 and 3 and Cod4:MW, the campaign was one of the best things in the game (although I got to see some bugs) , multiplayer has its moments but the mp5 is just a pain, zombies is pretty good, that's it.

    For a game that costs 70€ this is an absolute effrontery. 8 Multiplayer maps (of which 4 are endorsing camping), 1 zombies map, 27 weapons. The PC-Port is awfully optimized, if you bought a raytracing GPU you dont even have to think about activating raytracing in this game, doesnt change much and reduces the FPS by about 20-30.

    Bad tickrate, so "SHOOT FIRST, DIE FIRST" is very common but shouldnt be a thing at all.
    Bad visibility, 60% of the time you dont even see where your bullets are going and you just guess that you are hitting the enemy.
    Glitches so bad that I cant even play zombies with my friends because every game someone's game crashes MULTIPLE times.
    Poor weapon balancing, the MP5 is able to kill you from short, medium and long ranges with about 3 hits, doesnt matter where as long as its not the toes. This game had a beta on every console it released and its evident they didnt change a thing when it comes to weapon balancing, this would be fixed in a day but well its still in there and practically EVERYONE is playing MP5.
    Multiplayer was fun the first few matches but afterwards it just was draining and me and all of my friends couldnt play this game anymore. After some time you just feel like you shouldnt engage the enemy because you will be killed immediately by his mp5, so whats the point ?

    This game couldve been made in two weeks when it comes to the IMMENSE amount of bugs there are. Its mindblowing.

Кампания норм и интересная, побочные квесты и две концовки. Положительные качества закончились. Мультиплеер полнейшее говно. полный дисбаланс оружий. Хочешь поиграть? Пососи хуй и страдай от пидарасов со снайпой и дробашами. Хочешь пострелять? Отсосите, МП5 просто всё ебет, но меня больше ебёт тут кривой ТТК и непонятность урона. То твое оружие выносит сразу противника, то должен весь магазин потратить, чтоб убить его, а он с 2 хп развернется и убьет с одного выстрела от дробаша. Про карты вообще молчу. Я могу от силы пару назвать карт. Это Кросродс, Москва( +-), тренировочный полигон, где рядом самолёт и ангар с танком. Респауны, они вернулись. Вроде умираешь и должен возродиться к своим, нет, надо возродиться рядом с противниками. Убили тебя на респе снайпер, ну ничего, пусть убьет тебя на том же месте. Хочешь поиграть нормально? Отсосите. Либо кемперы, либо дауны на снапах выносят тебя. Можно также дальше пиздеть и об оптимизации игры. Постоянные вылеты в зомби-режиме. Сегодня вышел патч, а именно 21.11.20 он принес нихуя ничего. Понерфить фамас. Ок, с этим можно согласиться, но зато надо апнуть мп5, который и так всех ебал, теперь он вообще все уничтожает все живое, как будто он превратился в некий Вектор. Играл в опорный пункт только что, так за минуту у нас три раза менялся респаун. Можно очень много писать про эту игру и она вышла сырой. Ошибки, и хуево туча проблем. Вся эта писанина ничего не даст. Про зомби можно сказать так. Это некое добавление режима Выживания из Call of duty Ghosts + и какаго-то вульфенштайна. Пасхалка в данный момент получилась короткой. Вряд ли эта игра пойдёт в гору. Очень много проблем. Общий прогресс за игру не засчитывается, то игра пишет, что ты должен ей 3 0 0 0 кодпоинтов, хотя ты только купил игру. Пишет тебе 6 уровень, показывается в другом месте 14, а в итоге у тебя прежний. Я забыл еще сказать про кроссплатформу. Играть с консольщиками полный пиздец. Привет автоаим.

    Location: 0x7FFB67D13E49 (8305760/8314541)

    I get errors like this all the time, even more now with the current patch (Nov 21). It mostly happens with I turn around ingame. It will just lock up.

    I went to twitter and started sending messages to Activision Support @ATVIAssist. I got a message back to go over some things to try and fix the issue.

    @ATVIAssist Hey Bad Feedback apologies that you're crashing in Cold War. Could you please try the following to see if it will help:

    -Could you move the Cold War application away from the Modern Warfare folder
    -Clear Cache: https://bit.ly/3nUriYP -Reboot system – unplug system for 5 mins
    -Ensure drivers are up to date
    -Scan & Repair https://blizz.ly/341qoSe
    -Update OS

    Could you please also let me know:

    -ATVI ID
    -Battletag
    -Did any images/error message occur if so can you provide me a photo?

    Please let me know if any of this has helped :-). ^RZ

    To make this short, I
    - Updated everything on my PC, Chipset, GPU etc
    -No OC software running in the background
    -Deleted and reinstalled the game twice (I even deleetd blizzard apps and left over files with revo uninstaller).
    -Removed COD MW plus Warzone (note, I didn't ever have one issue with this game).

    So Support got back to me to ask me to upload some info on my computer like the normal Dxdiag, but also wanted me to upload all of this data to a site called "Pastebin". I had to first copy the data to a notepad than paste it to this site and get the URL and link it in this message on twitter.

    The next part I had to go to the install location of Cold War and hit the "ReportCodBug.exe". It created a folder with a bunch of error files inside it. Inside this folder was 10 folders (all zipped) with each folder having 6 files. So in total 60+ files.

    The Twitter support wanted me to open each folder, copy all of the date to a notepad, link it to this pastebin site then give them a link to each. I'm not even joking. They really wanted me to do this.

    @ATVIAssist -Could you go throw each and throw them in a pastebin link please? Sorry for the confusion. ^RZ

    I uploaded my Dxdiag and linked this report folder yet no one has replied back. It's been days now. No one from the support and even looked at my replies of these urls with the data. They simply don't care.
    If I known this game was this buggy, I would have never bought this. If the game wasn't buggy, I would rate it, but can't because I can't play lol    … Expand

Les spawns sont trop frustrants et pensés pour des victimes, combinés à un système de score based matchmaking qui gâche totalement l'expérience de jeu pour un joueur expérimenté comme moi. Les streaks sont cools mais mais très peu 'nombreux malheureusement. C' est très clairement l'un des pires multi que j'ai jamais vu et pourtant je joue à cod depuis longtemps. Même si le plus gros problème reste largement le sbmm il y a aussi les bugs qui sont multiples et assurent des parties très énervantes. Exemple :je suis dans un bâtiment et je meurt par un tir d'artillerie qui tombe dehors tout à fait inédit xD
    Il y a également l'invincibilité au respawn face aux streaks qui empêche de faire des carnages, les armes totalement déséquilibrées comme la mp5 ou les mitraillettes de façon générale qui tuent en une balle même de loin allez comprendre, ou encore le système "d'équilibrage" des équipes qui fait que je ne peux enchaîner indéfiniment les victoires parce qu'au bout de 3-4 games le jeu va m'obliger à me coltiner des types qui en rien à faire de l'objectif allez comprendre pourquoi. Dernier point et pas des moindres il n'y a qu'une seule map à peu prêt amusante et nerveuse c'est cartel en 12v12. Sauf que de ce fait ça oblige à tout le temps ralancer pour tomber dessus :(
    Bref rien de plaisant que de la frustration, on en ressort plus tendu que détendu !
    Sinon pour ce qui est du zombie il est vraiment sympa mais les bugs de co gâchent tout. La grande majorité des games crashent parce que l'hôte quitte la partie, qu'il y a une maj des serveurs, ou que le logo câble ethernet de 2010 apparaît xD
    C'est infernal et pourtant je précise que j'ai la fibre donc je ne comprend pas pourquoi le jeu ne me fait pas héberger la partie ou pourquoi ils n'y a toujours pas de serveurs dédiés dans ce mode de jeu. J'espère que ce sera vite corrigé mais c'est tout de même une honte de sortir un mode de jeu dans un tel état. Enfin je joue sur pc et j'ai de gros problèmes d'optimisation alors que sur le précédent opus le jeu tournait parfaitement en full élevé. J'ai vérifié sur internet et aparament je suis loin d'être le seul dans ce cas là donc bon à moins que ce soit corrigé très rapidement ça veut dire que même sur ce point là il n'y a rien à en tirer.    … Expand

    As is typical with every Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War, their unwillingness to change up the formula ruins it. Have fun with the new COD, featuring quick scoopers, wall hackers, and trash, but don't worry! New and improved non-binary choices, give me a **** break. Don't buy this absolute trash of a game.

    Maybe it's Activision fault or Treyarch, I don't know, but the game is not enjoyable at ALL! It feels rushed and unfinished. Gunfight it's a coin flip. First shoot - first die. The movement it awful. And final the SBMM (Skill Based Matchmaking) gives me nightmares. It put casual players against pros... Brilliant.

    Where to start? SBMM? lack of content? constant crashing? Activision and Treyarch not listening to the community? Hackers? Activision helping hackers with privatising stats? Garbage hit detection? The multiplayer is awful, literally unplayable, infested with hackers if you are above a certain kdr. SBMM makes maybe 1 out of 8 games enjoyable. The content is pitiful, maps are boring. Weapons level up so god damn slow, even when there is 2 weapons XP. And you also level up very slowly, 90% after the match I get show that I've leveled up for at least two more levels than I actually have. Camo challenges still don progress and some are just plain stupid. An okay one is 5 kills without dying but then you realise the spawns are **** on every map and just when you have that 4 kills most of the time someone will spawn almost immediately behind you.
    Zombies is a relatively enjoyable mode - for some time. Then you get sick of the map. Ok Dead Ops arcade is also there, still that's not the zombies experience for most of the playerbase. Actually the only playable and replayable mode is zombies mode.
    Campaign is actually pretty damn solid. Very good, but...it lacks so much stuff. Mission 9 is still a great question to how that's even possible but I won't spoil anything.
    Sadly I'm one of those who blindly believed COD cannot be such a let down and prepurchased the game with "how bad can it be?" mindset. Very very bad. Don't buy it, don't support Activision's greed. Crack it if possible to enjoy the campaign and zombies.
    Why did I decide to give 1/10 score?
    Because of the price, the lies, the quality and the SBMM implementation itself.
    I would give this game probably 8/10 if it was 20 dollars or something like that and you got Battlepass included and all the prepurchase DLC. It's not worth more than that. I think this is where COD finally dies and I'm hoping Battlefield can take it's place again after BFV.    … Expand

I feels like a mix of the new Call of Duty with the old Call of Duty, with both the good and the bad.

    Positives:
    - Zombies is REALLY good, I personally think it merges the more complicated new stuff from BO3 and BO4 zombies super well with the more classic zombies gameplay of Black Ops 1, where the maps were a bit smaller and easy to set up. The systems are really interesting, but the menus used for Armor and Pack a Punch are a little cumbersome when trying to Pack a Punch or refill your armor quickly when being chased by zombies.
    -The sound design is good, while most definitely not as real feeling as Modern Warfare, all guns have punch and sound very heavy. This is not to everyone's taste as it can sound more exaggerated, to in my opinion I think that it sounds good while playing.
    -I have not played the campaign yet but I have heard it is quite good
    -Free zombies maps, and all content updates to the game are free due to Activision's new model

    Negatives:
    - Standard multiplayer feels really small, I personally really like the Combined Arms mode, but the standard multiplayer matches I've played have felt lack luster
    - The game has a fair few bugs in it, which isn't very acceptable from this franchise after so many years. They should really know better, especially with charging $10 more on the new consoles. The majority of the bugs I have experienced are in zombies rather than multiplayer, but I still think zombies is the best mode in the game.
    - The skins you can unlock for your guns in this game are significantly less interesting than the ones in Modern Warfare in my opinion, and while there are more with having zombies and multiplayer camos, the only interesting ones are the zombies skins    … Expand

There is a severe lack of content but that doesn’t hurt the quality of the game in my opinion. The zombies experience is easily the best thing about this game as they have completely outdone themselves with the great cross progression system and adding many quality of life improvements like the removal of perk limit and being able to mantle everything and having the ability to easily maneuver through zombies. The multiplayer side is a bit on the rough side as I wish we had more maps but it’s fairy balanced (aside from the initial mp5 which just got nerfed) compared to most cod games, and as we all know, modern warfare 2019 was god awful with its balancing. The campaign is a very great but short action based adventure! Loved the gameplay as well as the stealth scenes. I did love the gameplay of the previous cods campaign as well and the story a bit better but I prefer cold wars story overall as well as the multiple outcome of endings.

    This is prob my favorite version of CoD so far, I love MW2019 but i was not a fan of the mp map design. If you loved the old school CoD shooters then you will most likely appreciate Cold War. The audio and actually being able to hear foot steps is so nice, hats off to the audio.

    Does it look worse than mw2019... yes and no, the maps are very clear and crisp and vibrant making enemies easy to see at long range. The audio is not as realistic like MW19 but the gunfire doesn't drown out everything else around allowing you to hear better. You can actually hear foot steps now which is amazing. Careful sprinting around...lol

    It doesn't have all of the fancy bells and whistles MW2019 has but a few things this game has over MW is map design hands down, Cold War has some of the best maps I have seen in years, they flow very nice and the pace is good. The TTK is much faster in Cold War allowing you to kill with a few shots versus a solid full clip.

I also, contrary to many people's opinions - didn't find the multiplayer that bad, in fact, I'd argue - there's far less issues with the matchmaking system in this itterattion, than in MW.

    This is the best game in the last 5 years! After modern warfare 2019, this is just a breath of fresh air. Great storyline, great multiplayer! The game is not without flaws, but after the disastrous modern warfare 2019, Cold War 10/10, Thanks Treyarch !!!

    They made the campaign great again! Loved the set pieces. Multiplayer maps feel much tighter as well. Zombies not perfect, but a step up and a great addition.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Игра мне понравилась, не лучшая в серии, но очень достойная. Начнём с компании. Она просто удивительная. В ней есть как и главные задания, как и побочные, которые также влияют на концовку игры. Также компания удивила меня не только правом выбора и несколькими концовками, но и сюжетными поворотами, например: Я был удивлён, что Белл изначально был за Персея, и в его, после прибытия в аэропорт, выстрелил Араш, но главные герои Black Ops спасли его и перепрограммировали, удивительно да? Так же меня поразило, что в этой части Call of Duty присутствует реальная серая мораль, которая показана не на словах разработчиков, как в MW 2019 года, а на деле. Так же удивило, что все заключения сюжета так, или иначе оставляют осадок. Т.е ни один финал нельзя считать хорошим. Если сказать правду, то Американцы смогут уничтожить бомбу, но Белла из-за того, что он слишком много знает, убьёт Адлер. Если сказать ложь, то главные герои не смогут уничтожить бомбы, а Белла застрелят за предательство. Ну а если сказать ложь и устроить засаду, то главных героев Black Ops Cold War убьют. Именно это неоднозначность и право выбора и делают сюжет Black Ops Cold War необычным, и я бы даже сказал одним из лучших сюжетов в истории Call of Duty. Перейдём в сетевую часть. Многие игроки хейтят графику, анимации оружия и карты. Я скажу тут только одно. Графика, конечно, не лучше чем в MW 2019 года, но и не хуже. Некстгена она не может показать по одной важной причине. Эта игра выходит как и на пастген версии консолей, так и на некстген. И тут возникает вопрос к тем людям, которые хотели увидеть революцию в графике. Каким макаром консоль 2016 года сможет потянуть некстген графику? Вы себя слышите? Или у вас напрочь отсутствует логика?! На счёт анимаций оружия.. Они почти в точь-точь как в MW 2019 года. Просто разработчики убрали визуальную отдачу, которая в MW 2019 года и придавала некий реализм оружию, но и одновременно мешала нормальной стрельбе, вспомните Узи. Звуки оружия на высоте, анимации тоже, карты достаточно не плохие. Мне не понравились только 2 карты - Пустыня и Картель. В пустыне очень много пустого пространства, и траншеи, в которые постоянно прыгают враги и мешают нормальному передвижению, а в Картеле посередине карты расположены кусты, которые мешают нормальной видимости. В общем всё на высоте, мне понравилось, а на хейт в мою сторону мне откровенно насрать. Моё мнение вам не изменить.… Expand

    What is this thing even installing? Because after you go to play the campaign its like, nah you gotta download it, heres part one… that’s right part one… youll play a mission in this joke of a campaign and then its like oh you nee to download part 2 now, heres another 26gb patch ontope of the 20 you just downloaded, but it doesn’t stope there, theres another 20 gb part 3.. .thats right.. nearly 70 GB patched in for not even 4 hour long campaign. That they couldn’t just put on the disc… downloading multiplayer and zombies makes sense because its primarily online.. but a 4 hour long campaign, it’s a joke…
    I for one do understand why so many people love call of duty, its multiplayer, and thankfully its just as fun here as its ever been with all of its modes outside of team deathmatch.. that’s usually my favorite mode, but I just wasn’t feeling the maps this year in deathmatch, but I had an absolute blast anyway for hours playing that ultra addicting, spawn shoot die gameplay, and its been a hwile since ive played a call of duty game.. since ww2.. so im not sure if these things are new but I am loving the instant respawns here on the next gen.. and I also appreciate that camping snipers have a little reflection to give away their location.. ive never been a fan of zombies mode, its obviously here.. I cant fairly critique it as it just isn’t my thing… but the main reason I play a call of duty game, at least in my currently life where I don’t have the time to sink days into multiplayer is the campaign.. but thankfully I do have the fun and addictive multiplayer to play through while it takes more hours to download than it does to actually play…
    Here you play as yourself, during the cold war, and the campaign actually started with tons of promise.. I wouldn’t mind if every year we got a well told 3-4 hour long story full of amazing set pieces and a mind blowing experience to compliment the fun multiplayer, and this campaign had its moments, it felt like an interactive movie with great moments and missions, some of the best stealth missions ive ever experienced in a first person shooter, but halfway through the campaign just falls apart, it becomes generic first person shooter level design and story telling, theres even a section of the game here youre redoing the same thing like 5 times in a row… that’s how much you can tell the creative juices have evaporated after an impressive start.. I didn’t want to stop playing, but I had to to let part 2 download… such a let down…
    Call of Duty is what it is…
    You know what youre going to get every year…
    it never changes outside of the setting..and this is where the let down comes into play
    Im personaly okay with a little 4 hour journey each year, but please put a little more effort and see that effort through, especially if again,, its only going to be 4 hours… it better be solid.
    But at least you have some new maps to play with.

    This game was so promising at release, but now I can say for certain that this game is going to get worse over time and it already has been.

    With the story mode I liked it as It wasn't long and dragged out like some of the other campaigns.

    Compared to black ops 4, I prefer the zombies in cold war to BO4 zombies. The reason why is that there is no monetization in the zombies game mode like for example, the elixirs and gobble gums. I would feel that the downside is that there is only one map and it gets repetitive replaying the same map over and over again. The map design in COLD WAR's zombies is great as it has wide open areas to train compared to BO4's narrow map design. I like the loadouts, specials, and the return of original perks..... Otherwise Its a step in the right direction.

    My problems is with everything else. Like for example, you need a constant internet connection to play every game mode like campaign and solo zombies. It does not make any sense to me and if the developers decide to shut down the servers. The end result is going to be the death of this game forever. So much for the preservation of games.

    For some reason every update for PC it ends up making the game worse with constant UI errors, glitches and crashes that make the game unplayable. I also disagree with the inclusion of modern warfare being shoehorned into the menu screen without the option of removing it. The reason I paid for this game is to play COLD WAR, not Modern Warfare. It also makes the menu screen look cluttered.

    As an old COD player, this is my first time being exposed to the "seasons/battle pass" scheme. I can say for certain its not worth the money. Because in my opinion, there really isn't a whole lot of content in it that enhances the experience as it only has COD points (I despise cod points), skins, one new character, double xp tokens, and other cosmetic items. And seeing how there was a badass trailer for stich, I thought there was going to be more added story missions but I was mislead.

    It seems like Treyarch also cares more about selling cosmetic bundles rather than releasing actual good content. These bundles are not worth the price and they are being produced at a rapid rate.... No, I am not going to pay 20$ for an character that should have been in the battle pass (honestly, go **** yourself Treyarch/activision. No, i am not going to pay 10$ -20$ for an anime gun camo for 2 guns that shoots purple tracer rounds. Its ridiculous and its infuriating because the game was perfectly fine without all these cosmetic microtransactions. It just goes to show how much corporate greed has found there way into video games.

    The final problem I wanted to talk about it the multiplayer. It lacks consistency with every gun being nerfed and buffed. The lack of maps is shocking and despite that, the games spawn system is dreadful. Every second the spawns keep on getting flipped which can be annoying. And I still get spawned killed regardless!

    Please remove SBMM

    In conclusion, I would recommend to not buy this game. The game initially can be very good and fun, but after a while it starts to become boring, repetitive, lack of content, and the addition of corporate greed that recently got shoved into the game. Seriously Treyarch/Activision? The game was fine without the microtransactions and the monetization schemes! If this is the best you can do then I don't see how anyone will stay on this game after a year. This game could have been a return to the good old COD days. But it ended up becoming a mediocre game and a missed opportunity.    … Expand

    I also couldn't play with a friend because of some 'party not available' bugs.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Overall this game is the best Call of Duty in recent years. As a Call of Duty veteran I can say that this Campaign is by far the best in the franchise, with Black Ops and MW2 coming in right behind. The mission designs and the storytelling is top-tier and the twist in the story brings back tons of nostalgia. If you love the first Black Ops campaign like I do then you are in for a real treat. "The numbers Mason, what do they mean!?". The replay-ability and different choices you can make open new dialogues and makes you want to replay missions. The way you have to find evidence across multiple missions in order to complete the two side missions is a great addition to the series as well. The campaign brings you to places that gave you huge nostalgia with the Summit, Jungle, and Firing Range vibes. One of the better parts of the campaign are the stealth missions you have to play which include the KGB Headquarters, a fortified Russian Base, and the German streets. Overall the campaign alone is a 9/10!

    The multiplayer overall is a fun but aggravating time. This game has only been out for a while, so it will take some time to fix, but the guns need HUGE balancing. The good thing is every gun is useful since the time to kill is very fast, but there are still some that are far superior than others (MP5, Krig, AUG). The camper problem is at an all time high with people sitting in a corner with a Stoner w/ACOG just absolutely lasering you. Also the skill-based-match-making puts you into constant sweaty games. The majority of the maps are bad (Cartel, Armada) with a couple that actually are playable (Moscow, Garrison). The recent addition of Nuketown is nice but tiring since this map always ends up in a Black ops game. The overall balancing of the perks and equipment are good, but scorestreaks need some tuning as well. I cannot tell you how many times I have been killed by a Napalm Strike when I was indoors not near any windows or doors. RC-XDs are basically a one shot to destroy which needs to be tweaked I feel. Calling cards are not that cool in this game and feel very dull or just not pleasant for the eyes. Overall multiplayer would get a 7/10.

    There is one word to describe Zombies...............AWESOME. They have really outdone themselves with this zombies being one of my favorites. With your weapons xp and normal xp carrying over to multiplayer from zombies, it makes zombies even more worth it to play. Die Maschine is a good map and is always a fun time even with randoms! Overall zombies gets a 8/10.    … Expand

The character movement is extremely shaky and wonky, the graphics are mediocre, nearly no maps (like 10 total) and less guns total than the Machinepistol category in MW.

New guns are an insanely hard grind. For example "Kill three enemies in quick succession with the knife in multiplayer" to unlock a sledgehammer. Only thing is that every enemy drops you in 5 shots. Shotguns do less damage than even pistols. They brough player hosting back instead of Dedicated servers which leads to a lot of connection issues in an already bug infested game. All that is already bad but the worst part is, that people that play with controller have the strongest aimbot in any shooter i have ever seen. Its okay that there is one in the first place as its not easy to aim with a controller but in this game you only need to get somewhere close with your aim and it moves center mass on its own with reduced recoil. This results in aimbot behaviour people would have been reported for in Modern Warfare. If your aim isnt pro league worthy and you are on PC, forget it. To add insult to injury Playstation players also level considerably faster. Both character level and guns. Gun leveling takes forver if you arent a Playstation player.

    After seeing the trailer where former president ronald regan was introduced and seeing mason, woods, hudson, and my new favorite adler. I was so hyped for the game especially after seeing that it is based on real life events and with actual facts of the real perseus actually being lost on our real life planet till this day! and i also loved the interview with yuri bezmonov in the trailers it really got me hyped.
    So far the beta came and everyones impressions were bad but for me it looked like classic black ops with a fan favorite spin to todays era.
    But when the game came out i literally forgot it came out because no one was talking about it, and luckily i got reminded that i got a battlenet gift card from my boss to buy the cold war as a bday present from a week before the release. So i downloaded the game and so far the impressions were good about the campaign. It is full of action! Like non stop explosions and shooting and soundtrack is phenomenal. And also the acting is great. But i felt like it was super short and you could finish it within a playthrough including the floppy disk secret ending. It took me about 5 hours to finish the campaign and it didnt feel right for the fans because, There was less of mason and woods and more about "Bell" which is you and the whole character creation stuff is pretty pointless besides the perks but still a major disappointment and i really wanted this story to kick ass after my hype from the trailers. But it felt so rushed and effortless and very straight forward it left me wanting more after i finished with the best good ending. So overall about the campaign i wish it was longer and the desicions you had to make to sacrifice one character to choose to save the other was so poorly done because i didnt have any emotions towards those characters and the ending part is where the choosing is at, and yeah the interactions with the characters in the hideout is pointless 100% dont interact with anyone. So in the end the campaign is a total missed potential of something truly big and record breaking.

    Multiplayer wise, well... Its not good. With so little variety and like 3 maps to play and awful customization and modes were okish, the new modes arent as fun. So i wouldnt recommend the MP mode as well its just meh.

    Zombies! ohh yeah the zombies! Its fun but you wont find a public lobby and players to play with besides yourself and friends.

    Overall: This game is such a missed potential and if you got it as a gift or on sale then good for you, otherwise dont spend money on this call of duty. Im still sticking to infinity wards absolute masterpiece from last year (Modern warfare) and i will not be playing this game anymore. The good things about this game is the implementation to pc with Dlss and RTX but other than that it also has its good moments in its campaign and zombies is fun. This game just left bad taste in my mouth and i would probably visit it after updates, and im also asking myself how did 5 major studios release such a crap within a year or so of development, this is what happens when you rush to release a new COD every year, this should be stopped! I want the next COD to release when its ready with at least 3 years down the line.    … Expand

    Nunca he sido un jugador especialmente bueno, mi KD es de 1.24 y tengo la sensación a veces de estar jugando contra jugadores profesionales y mi equipo agazapado en cualquier esquina por miedo a perder su proporción o porque es gente que no concuerda con su ratio real.

Jamás estarán los Cods nuevos a la altura de MW1 y 2, Black Ops 1 y 2, juegos en los que se usaba un sistema de búsqueda de partidas por conexión y no te emparejaba por habilidad, eran partidas rápidas y para divertirse, ahora desde la salida de MW de 2019 es imposible jugar partidas rápidas porque parecen todas competitivas y llegan ha cansar y agobiar el estar todo el rato jugando de esa forma.

    La partidas rápidas son para jugar sin competir, si quiero un modo liga me uno a el y no esto, por mi parte Treyarch has perdido un jugador más mientras siga Activision apostando por éste modelo de emparejamiento y de negocio. Como veterano de la saga no os vuelvo a dar una oportunidad más y más después de sufrir el SBMM de MW y su multijugador plagado de camperos con SBMM.

    Follows Modern Warfare's engine and Season Pass concept
    The fact that you can buy 'upgraded' weapons (instead of plain skins) is a bit rubbish.
    Storyline offers something new, being more paced but still actions scenes present. Giving you a lot of freedom to play the way you want too, almost giving some aspects of an RPG that you wouldn't normally expect from a CoD game.

    Multiplayer still seems bare, however the pandemic will have had an effect. Needs more maps, however returning to NukeTown is awesome.

    I'd recommend it on sale, maybe not for full price unless you're invested to play the game.
    Graphics look nice but can also be reduced to awful looking (for those of us with lesser rigs).

    Zombies is supposed to be good, however not so much my cup of tea personally.

    I'd recommend trying it if you can get it on sale, or if you were invested in Modern Warfare (2019)    … Expand

    Whilst the single player is very short for a £50 game refreshingly for a Call of Duty I actually enjoyed it, gun play was good, story was good and I love that they chucked some choices in there that impact the ending. Multiplayer is what it is with Cod at this point nothing serious, just a bit of fun.

Graphics are worse, gunplay is worse, animations are worse and the game is riddled with glitches likely never to be patched by a now soulless fan-favorite COD developer: Treyarch. This studio is responsible for making the top three best COD games ever made, which are (in descending order): Black ops, Black ops 3 and black ops 2. These incredible games were the reason I was excited for what now seems to be a lazy, pathetic sequel to an otherwise fantastic trilogy. To start the user interface is perhaps the worst in any game I've played yet, with still no option do modify audio settings without having them reset as if I hadn't. It seems that there is a missing 'apply' button, this also means that I cannot communicate in anyway with game chat, limiting me to the systen specific text chat, which console players are unable to interact with. I am also unable to host an in-game party because my status is permanently set to 'offline' for whatever reason, meaning nobody can join me, nor can they accept an invite, which would only do nothing. Furthermore, I've experienced plenty of crashes, a plethora of connectivity issues (which in the zombies gamemode will result in a seemingly instant death after reconnection), UI overlapping issues and far too much more to list. As for the gameplay; The Campaign featured even more terrible issues; AI teammates would constantly get stuck in place, forcing me to restart an unfun, underdeveloped level with floating objects and poor enemy placement, which would prove an immeasurable nuisance on the 'realism' difficulty, which would require me to constantly replay checkpoints after an unavoidable, scripted 3+ enemies would shoot at me at the same time causing an instant death. Levels were clearly not play tested on higher difficulties. The multiplayer is just as bad, with the game using 20hz servers meaning that many shots dont even register. For reference PUBG (remember that game?) uses 60hz servers. There are plenty of underpowered and overpowered guns to never be balanced because Treyarch clearly just doesnt care anymore, and it painful to watch. I'm tired of writing, so I'm gonna dumb it down a bit. The maps are **** gunplay is **** (especially sniper ADS). zombies is not good either. Its definitely the best part of the game, but that's not saying much. Cold war zombies is better than Black ops 4, but hasn't got **** on Black ops 3, which is the best possible zombies experience you can have across all call of duties. In conclusion this piece of **** is an overpriced, underdeveloped, unloved by its parents, disappointment that I am embarrassed to have paid $100 (AUD) for. Now that were on the topic of price, what the **** is up with that? Every other game on pc is like $80 max now! Even triple A games. Why the **** does this piece of **** game cost so much? Also black ops 1 on steam is $50 and it came out 10 years ago. Lower the ****ing price and people would actually buy them for nostalgia you ****ing corporate retards. You're paying such a high price when a third of the game isnt even active anymore (multiplayer) **** this game.… Expand

    First, let me start off by saying that I had a generally good time with the campaign in this game. Levels are fun and it's always nice to see returning characters from previous Black Ops games. The most interesting aspect of it is the titular Cold War era that it takes place in. Lots of mystery and great music from the time period. However, there are some noticeable bugs here and there,First, let me start off by saying that I had a generally good time with the campaign in this game. Levels are fun and it's always nice to see returning characters from previous Black Ops games. The most interesting aspect of it is the titular Cold War era that it takes place in. Lots of mystery and great music from the time period. However, there are some noticeable bugs here and there, and certain recurring parts of the campaign (keeping vague to avoid spoilers) seem to not have the PC optimizations that the marketing team for the game seem to love to tout. Specifically, the game seems to just ignore the field of view you have selected in the options in favor of having a super zoomed in view that genuinely made me feel a little ill when moving around the environment. Other than these issues though, the story campaign was pretty fun (if short).

    Next, the main reason I have chosen to give this game such an average score: the multiplayer. Coming from CoD Modern Warfare 2019, the multiplayer in this game feels like a gigantic step backwards for the series. All movement in the game feels rather floaty, and actually shooting at enemy players just isn't fun. Coming from CoD2019, which felt grounded and "tactile", the multiplayer in this game just feels woefully underdeveloped. This is a real shame, as I remember loving the multiplayer of both Black Ops 1 and 2 back in the day.

    Apart from how the multiplayer feels, the game itself just looks blurry. I played the game using a 2080 Super GPU, and no matter what settings I changed, I just could not make the game look good. Also, once again coming back to PC optimization, it is baffling to me that there is no option to disable film grain as of this time. This decision makes the game look even more blurry, and made me feel as if I was playing while looking through some kind of Vaseline filter.

    If you told me that this CoD was from a few years ago, I would probably believe you. I remember booting up CoD 2019 when it first released last year, and I was surprised at just how "new" it felt. It felt exciting, like CoD was finally mixing things up with their movement system and how guns really had kick to them. Cold War in comparison feels flat and as if it is regressing in the great changes that were introduced just a year prior.

    I like Call of Duty games. They are a guilty pleasure of mine that I continue to play despite the greedy and consumer unfriendly decisions of publisher Activision (they charge full price WITH a battle pass, WITH a shop with microtransactions? That's insane!). I tend to buy the latest iteration of CoD each year, and most of the time I have a great time with it. This year though, just a few days after launch, I feel like dropping Black Ops Cold War. This doesn't feel like a polished product, and I feel major buyers remorse this time around.    … Expand

    Its garbage. Almost. It looks like a whole new franchise based on Cold War times, but it has nothing to do with real Black Ops 1 game that many people still remember and play. Cold War is a game for soyboys, with fancy music, that has nothing to do with somewhat industrial cold ambient of BO1, and Cold War is also a dramatically raw product. In every way, basically. There are only 5 assault rifles, 5 smgs, 3 lmgs, 3 pistols and ONLY TWO shotguns in this game right now. Year 2020. No comments. Only 8 maps are availiable, some of them lag so hard that on minimal settings game runs in 50 fps, showing graphics of Far Cry 3 or Warface at the same minimal option. Game is absolutely unoptimized, also i should mention that with my headset everything sounds very quiet, although i tried all sound presets that were availiable.
    TTK is very strange and looks like someone wanted to make all-in-one game called like "Call of Playerunknown's Battlefield". You can very rarely kill 2 or 3 people at once, its just impossible and your reaction means nothing. Skill based matchmaking is also a big problem, but i cant say much about that because havent played enough, probably. Your guns fly all over the screen, feels like your operator has strong epilepsy... All i can say is that Cold War looks like a Black Ops caricature, its just raw and somewhat stupid to play. Its like playing something between mobile arcade clone of CoD, PUBG and Far Cry 3, but in 50-60 fps and ten years old graphics.

Weapon attachments are a lot more clear on what they actually do, and are structured in a better way so that positives and negatives are evenly balanced therefore everything has a use depending on your style of play. In my opinion they have mastered all the necessities i in making a great call of duty game and I greatly look forward to seeing what updates it brings us.

With very few maps and a small selection of guns compared to previous entries in the series, there just isn't enough variety to give any reason to keep playing. There is a promise of post-launch content, but this feels like it should've been part of release with how little to do there is in this game. Lastly, why is just the act of trying to party up with friends so horrendously broken? 90% of the time I try to play with friends we get some sort of error, and the amount of times we've lost a party member upon loading into a game is just annoying.

    Call of Duty Cold War definitely feels different than the other Black Ops games. Some view the Cold War as a step down from most CoD games. But I beg to disagree. I certainly understand why people do not like this new game, either because they have been playing for years; and haven’t seen anything outstanding that has happened in this new game. Or it just feels bland and boring. But from my perspective, a person who has less experience in the Call of Duty community, sees it as a time grabbing game. So I decided, for this review, to break the game into 3 categories. Campaign, Multiplayer, and Zombies (the 3 main parts of the game).

    Campaign

    Personally, the campaign is the Staple of the game. My main complaint about the campaign is how unrealistic it is compared to the real cold war. But maybe that is just the history side of me speaking. The campaign is a choice type campaign, a lot like Detroit: Become Human, and The Walking Dead game. There are 3 different endings that can be chosen by what you choose. campaign is rather short, but can be extended if you play for different endings. Parts of the game are very unexpected and captivating. The characters in the story are likeable and at times, comedic (especially Woods). The Graphics are probably the best highlight of the game. If you were able to get your hands on the Playstation 5, the graphics will look as realistic as they get. The story itself is a bit hard to follow because of how they add choices to the game, but if you pay attention then you will notice how well written it is.

    Multiplayer

    The multiplayer is the biggest downside to the game. It’s not terrible, but it's just bland. But the new battle pass coming December 16th should change this. The weapons seem balanced. An example of this is the sniper class. As a new player you will get the Pellington Rifle. This gun is the best of the 3 snipers in the game. At level 55, you will get the last Sniper Rifle, and the last gun in the game, but it is nowhere near as good as the Pellington. This gives new players a great chance of doing better than the people who are already at prestige 3. A problem with multiplayer is the visual glitches. Visual glitches have been a problem in Call of Duty for a while now, but they seem to have gotten worse in Cold War. One of the most common glitches is the rainbow glitch. When playing you can sometimes, by chance, get a glitch that makes the textures on the map turn into rainbow glowing tiles. It may look pretty at first, but the longer you play the more annoying it gets. The maps are not the most balanced, but they are definitely beautiful.

    Zombies

    Zombies are probably one of my favorite parts of this game. It is definitely a step up from the other ones we have had recently. This new zombies gives us Bosses, New Wonder Weapons, Storyline, Easter eggs, and of course, a buffed up RayGun. The map is the classic Die Maschine map. The map has so many easter eggs in it I couldn’t put it all into this one review. But the most outstanding easter egg would be the Disco Dimension/Coffin Dance easter egg. When you shoot out a certain amount of blue orbs around the map you get teleported to a dimension with dancing zombies carrying a crate while doing the coffin dance. No, I am not joking. If you are lucky, or skilled you can get a gun known as the Decompressive Isotopic Estrangement Machine. Or as I call it, the Zombie Sucker 3000. This gun can suck up zombies around you and shoot out a giant shockwave that does a bolt load of damage. There is a storyline in the game that plays every time you start the game, so expect to remember the voices in your head while you're playing. The storyline is pretty interesting, and you can find “intel” across the map that gives you more info about it. Overall this is probably my favorite mode in Cold War, and I can’t wait to see what they have planned for the updates to come.    … Expand

    I made a Metacritic account just to say how awful of a game this is.

    Let's start with the multiplayer, a huge lack of content on launch, only 7 new maps, (but, you'll only be playing the okay ones which makes the map pool like 3) and after the new season, only one new maps, and three new operators.

The guns are also horribly unbalanced, for every gun class, you only see a small group of guns that rule the kill feed, the Krig 6, MP5, Galio (or Spas-12), MAC-10, AUG, and the M16, it's stupid how good they get when you level them up, they can kill you before you can even get a shot off and knowing the Cold War servers, you won't even see them.

    Now the Zombies, one map on release, really. It baffles my mind how they came up with one map for this gamemode, it was and still is a staple of the Black Ops series and i don't know how you **** it up, I know they and to change studios half way through and COVID, well, you know what happened there, but I really wouldn't care if this game took a couple more months to come out. On top of all this, you can't even get the ending most of the time because of countless glitches.

    The only slightly redeeming quality is the campaign, it's good, but not that good, it feels like a Black Ops campaign, but done by someone who was only told what a Black Ops campaign is, and they didn't even get the original voice actors for Woods and Mason.

    Extras I don't really feel like getting into:
    Graphics feel like a step down for Modern Warfare 2019.
    Sound effects are not as gritty or real as MW.
    Wall banging reduces your bullet damage by 99.99% even if it's 1" thick plywood because why the **** not.
    Speaking of wall banging, sometimes you can't even wall bang 1" thick plywood. Perfect example, the windows on Nuketown, try wall banging them, I dare you.

    In conclusion, this game still feels like it's in beta, I hope they'll fix it, but they're probably to focused on Warzone.    … Expand

    More disappointing than black ops 4.

    This game is a huge let down. Other than the story being great, it's so short lived. 5 hour campaign. 1 zombie map. Multiplayer is actual garbage.

    I'd rather sacrifice 200+ gb of my hard drive just to play modern warfare again instead of this broken mess of a game.

    This games multiplayer is absolutely horrendous!! It encourages camping. It is extremely unbalanced and the spawns are terrible. Some attachments are senseless like an increase to slide speed. The visibility is bad and the fact that you need an attachment in the game to increase your spotting distance says alot!

The visibility is bad and the fact that you need an attachment in the game to increase your spotting distance says alot! This game is absolutely not worth the money they're asking as it is using an old engine of Call of Duty, the tick rate for the servers are 20 hz which is crap. Only thing giving this the slightest bit of playability is the zombies. Which at this point would have me only pay $20 for this game. Big Disappointment!… Expand

    Another pile of not preformed well ideas. I understand we are desperate to keep the Gravy Train that is known as Call of Duty rolling, but you can't do it like this, it isn't right. This game is such a step in the wrong direction, even after they botch a great game in modern warfare. It's upsetting that this is the result of things today. It's most certainly time for a new developer beforeAnother pile of not preformed well ideas.

    What feature, or lack thereof, would compel a Call of Duty fan to buy or skip a new entry at this point? It plays fine, and it’s the most recent one. That’s usually enough.

    Overall, I love the old-school feels of Black Ops in Cold War and I love the storyline. All of the modes are fun to play and offer a lot for old players and new players alike. It is fun to get back into the action with players from all consoles and on PC to make the action that much better with cross-play. There are some issues with multiplayer that will seemingly never go away but such is life for an online multiplayer game.

    The question of whether to pick up Call of Duty: Black Ops - Cold War on the PC is situational, despite it being a solid title. If you're the type of player who likes the campaigns that each entry brings forth, then you'll be fine with Cold War. The branching paths of the short campaign give it some replayability beyond simply increasing the difficulty. Fans of Zombies mode will also be fine, even though it suffers from having only one map (for now) and a PlayStation-exclusive mode that'll be unavailable on the PC for a year. Multiplayer fans are in more of a pickle. If you're tired of the maps in the prominently featured Modern Warfare but want traditional modes, then this is perfect, especially since the cross-play feature is going strong and there are people on both the last- and next-generation platforms ensuring the game gets a healthy shelf life. If you're primarily a Warzone player, you aren't going to bother with this one, since that free-to-play game is getting Cold War elements soon to keep it fresh.
