    Story: Big story, Bad story, Make no sense story. I don't care about any of the characters and I don't think Treyarch did either. 1.5/10

I HATE the maps, they are way too linear to have any fun and they don't really go well with the ""advanced movement*"". Although it is still fun to shoot things because the gunplay is alright. 5/10

    Graphics: The kind that looks meh when the game first comes out but also doesn't really age with time. 5.5/10 (for 2022) 6.5/10 (for 2015).

    Sound: Generic Call of Duty sounds. 5/10

    Stability: Alright now, but I heard it was a broken mess at launch (however that doesn't really affect my score) 7/10

    Zombies: Better than BO1. 8/10

    Overall: I really don't care about this game. BO3 does some stuff alright but it also does some stuff horribly. I would give it a 5 but the campaign is just so bad that the zombies would have to be perfect to get that score so I have to give it a 4/10 instead.    … Expand

    This game is a disaster. The campaign is a mess. The ending is ridiculous. I didn't like the atmosphere, it's weird. Graphics and action are maybe OK, but the gameplay ideas were not so good.

    Worst call of duty game in my life. Starting with save problems, after solving them:
    Can not get weapons from enemies, the game dont let you move everywhere before the npc goes first Cannot open doors as soon as possible. Its real garbage.

    The fact that it's only white character they have when you want to select your characters in campaign is a no for me. They got like 6 or maybe more characters both make and female each and they are all white. Plus gameplay is too Arcady, like wtf is wall run and double jump

    Singleplayer has a bad story and a very boring, repetitive setting. The new gameplay elements do not really enrich the game but rather make the overall gaming experience more inconstistent. Multiplayer is not really to recommend these days anymore, as player count is too low for having a solid reliable experience matchmaking-wise.

Yes, pausing the game, something that basically every game in the last 30 years has managed to implement without screwing the game up, will screw the game up. Scripted cutscenes will continue playing while paused, or will fail to play when the game is unpaused. Unpausing also makes animations of enemies stop playing and they just float around frozen.

    Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 is a game that really wants you to know that it is pretty. The game’s splash screen is nice looking, the menus look nice, and the characters all are quite high-fidelity and mostly look quite good, though the odd NPC has a case of plastic face. The explosions are pretty, the guns are pretty, the robots are pretty…

The game’s splash screen is nice looking, the menus look nice, and the characters all are quite high-fidelity and mostly look quite good, though the odd NPC has a case of plastic face. The explosions are pretty, the guns are pretty, the robots are pretty…

    But while all of this is nice, the eternal question facing me when I’m playing a game is “am I having fun?” And when I was playing this game, for much of its length, my response to that would be “Kind of?” at best.

    This is a game I put down for a year between playing the first three missions and completing the game. That isn’t to say I didn’t try to play it again; I remember picking it up about four months after putting it down, deciding to replay the second (tutorial) mission because I’d forgotten the controls, then doing so again several months later, because both times, while I had beaten the tutorial mission again, I just sort of didn’t feel terribly compelled to play the rest of the game.

    Indeed, I think it is safe to say that the only reason why I actually bothered beating this game is because it was eating up over 90 gigs of hard drive space, and thus, if I ever was going to beat it, I’d better do it now, because there was no way I was going to redownload it.

    And this is kind of telling, I think. I had to make myself play through the game, and while it was never actually bad, it was never really compelling, either. There were lots of pretty battles in exploding and falling apart places - in fact, every single level after the first two missions features at least some part of the level falling apart around you, and some of the later levels, the whole level is falling apart around you. This trick gets a bit old after a while, doubly so as these are never actually threatening – I never once had the level fall apart under me and actually kill me, despite the game trying to seem threatening about it.

    And this sort of faux spectacle held through much of the game – there were a lot of theoretically spectacular battles, but almost the entire game consisted of fighting just some dudes with guns or robots with guns, dressed up to try and look pretty. But I wanted the gameplay to be pretty too, and despite the fact that you can double jump and run on the walls, this was almost never useful in actual combat.

    This is, I think, a big part of what made the game feel dull – you are a cybernetic supersoldier, but throughout the game, just a few bullets will kill you, forcing you to retreat to cover and gradually shoot out from it. This is not a game with click-to-cover mechanics – you have to organically take cover behind environment objects by moving/ducking/going prone behind them and then shifting around to take potshots before retreating – but in the end, it doesn’t matter much. Most of the game is spent hiding in cover, trying to avoid getting shot while your health regenerates, and almost every battle is fought in this exact same way.

    This is a big problem, because it means that, for all the set dressing, the core of the game is pretty samey. There’s only a few battles where a boss (of which there are a couple) will actually either destroy the environment around you or move around to force you to react, and a small number of setpiece battles where enemies move to flank you or appear from various directions, forcing you to react.

    Most of the time, you can just sit behind cover, shoot people, then go back to the cover while you regain your health, making it feel like a pretty standard FPS. Your cool cybernetic movement enhancements are only occaisionally useful in battle, and then, it is mostly just jumping up to a higher level, rather than making your way around the environment in an agile manner and raining down death on your foes while running along walls.

    This lack of dynamicism carries over to the powers as well – in theory, the cybernetic powers are supposed to make you feel different from a standard soldier. Some were reminiscent of the plasmids from the Bioshock series.

    But ultimately, these largely weren’t that interesting in actual gameplay. The problem was that a lot of them ultimately trivialized encounters. Fireflies, for instance, would fly out and set enemies on fire and distract them from firing – a very powerful ability, that only took a few seconds to recharge after it had run. I used this power through much of the campaign. But the problem was it was never really fun to use; I’d use the power, duck behind cover, then move out and shoot people (who mostly died anyway due to the fireflies, no further involvement necessary from me).

    All in all, this is a game that I never felt like I needed to play. It was not terrible, but it was never great, and when I walked away from it, I never felt like I was missing anything.    … Expand

    I bought it almost out for about 50 euros and was not disappointed, the good thing is that it complies with what it offers; Quick games, very simple and little more, a CoD like the ones of each year, I do not recommend the purchase to date because there are almost no people playing. If you liked the zombies of Black Ops or you happen to buy this game.

Right off the bat, you have no clue who the good or bad guys are or why you're doing what you're doing, or even what the game tries to tell you is happening. As the plot gets clearer though, it becomes obvious how derivative and pedestrian it is. Treyarch delivers the story with totally misplaced bombast and freighted with emotion and meaning as if you haven't seen this stuff many times before in other games and film. The final mission, with your character railing and ranting is particularly cringe worthy. This is by far the worst Call of Duty I have ever played.

    For a series that has prided itself on its 60 fps gunplay Black Ops III on PC is another shoddy port that suffers from lack of optimization. Stuttering is so frequent as to render the game unplayable. Highly recommend waiting to see if the issues are fixed. If you already have bought it you can get a refund through Steam.

Like who the hell comes up with this crap? people remember the last 15 minutes of any experience and the final 2 hours of this game is the most infuriating experience so the designers can make this crappy game last longer.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Estaba muy ilusionado con este CoD, sobre todo por quien lo hace, acostumbrados a sus buenos ports para PC como Black Ops 2. Pero es una vergüenza lo mal optimizado que está y el lag que hay siempre, seas host o no, es habitual ver +100 de ping en la mayoría de usuarios en partida, da igual que conexión tengas, 1 mb o 300 mb...y ya que haya que tenre un pc con +8GB para que vaya estable en la mayoría de casos, es una pasada. Ni The Witcher 3...

    Luego, lo he probado con mi portátil con una 840m un i7 y 8GB de Ram, con el que corro BF4 en Ultra a 768p y +30 fps y si lo bajo a medios +60 fps sin problemas... y aquí tengo que bajar la resolución a 720p y rescalado a 600p para que vaya estable a 35fps con todo en bajo. Lo dicho, vergonzoso, y más aún habiendo tenido 3 años de desatollo y una beta pública casi 3 semanas entre todas las plataformas.

    Sin contar todo esto, y hablando solo del juego... pienso lo que pensé en la beta: hemos visto los mejores mapas y el resto estoy seguro que serán muy genéricos y pasilleros. Con el 4º mapa de la beta ''stronghold'' se empezaron a cumplieron mis sospechas, y ahora con la salida del juego se terminan de confirmar... mapas ratoneros llenos de ventanas y huecos, perfectos para Camperos. Solo 3 o 4 se salvan en mi opinión (Combine, Evac, Hunted y Nuk3town) y uno de ellos es de bonus por reserva y reciclado de los otros dos Black Ops. Sin contar todas las cosas ue tienes para guarrear: minas trampas y eléctricas, poder ver las huellas de los enemigos, mira térmica para camperos, sexto sentido para ver en el mini mapa sin uav cuando tienes enemigos cercanos, armas que no hace falta ni apuntar para matar... da puto asco.

    3/10 por el modo zombis que es divertido y la campaña que es entretenida y rejugable (cuando te la pasas una vez te la puedes pasar una segunda con una historia un poco diferente mezclando zombis). El resto, BASURA.    … Expand

Movement options they copied and pasted from other games don't add to the game in a meaningful way they just speed up the pace on maps that are already too small and too chaotic. Copied and pasted the specialists from Destiny and they make it even easier for noobs to get free kills. Scorestreaks are weak and expensive. They implemented drop box random reward system again but promised they wouldn't put anything but cosmetics in there. Then they put new weapons in there and the odds are incredibly stacked against you earning them the natural way so you have to pay for it. Not to mention you are still using the 1996 Quake engine.

    This game is mirror picture of advanced warfare, there is nothing new, perhaps swimming :D
    People don't play any other modes, than tdm, or free for all, so you get bored fast.
    Also there is very big input lag and game is terrible optimized.

    The lag compensation is always against me, seems impossible to kill anyone most of the time unless catching them off guard. I had major lag compensation problems since MW3 and it was never fixed, just little less noticable in BO2 and AW. Usually after playing few games in a row it was becoming decent, but in case of BO3 it's always bad and worst of all COD games.

    This is one of the worst call of duty ever. I don't understand how the critics rate it 8/10? The franchise is going backward, gone are the days when $1b sales were expected. Now the company probably doesn't even make $100m, thus sales figures are not public anymore. It's sad how the game is going down the drain.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This will be a bit of a rant about the multiplayer component of BO3. It is not a review as such but is still all from experience, which I feel will you will encounter should you purchase this game. The multiplayer is probably the worst I have experienced. It's as if they blended Advanced Warfare and Destiny and tried to sell it as COD. The specialist classes are interesting at first, until you realize that everyone plays as the two most powerful ones. Kill-streaks require more kills to acquire and can be shot down almost instantly by rockets. Some specialist skins require kills with their specialty weapon; this wouldn't be so difficult if the multiplayer wasn't abysmally unbalanced. 5 minutes of play-testing would have made it obvious to the developers that the first-unlocked weapons should swap places with the higher-rank weapons. There are about 5-7 of the most powerful weapons that are used by everyone. The addition of wall-running removes the sense of map control entirely, you get shot from every side except the front by some grasshopper with an SMG. Maps are so similar to BO2 I confuse the layout. I question the mental capability of those who defend this game. Do not purchase.… Expand

Every COD I pick up I do well in, and have a good time. AndThis game was a major bummer. I don't want to come off as pretentious, but I am a pretty good player on the COD series.

I'm not going to lie, this game is not worth the hype. Every COD I pick up I do well in, and have a good time. And each time my experience is a little bit different, THAT'S why I like it. They introduce little things here and there that make the game fun. COD4 had some of the best hit detection, guns, mechanics and sounds/gun feel for its time and holds true today. The modern Warfare series all had a special feel to them, 2 and 3 really had something working for them and I can't quite lay a finger on it. Black ops 1, people didnt seem to like but I enjoyed it. This is when I went from an average player to exceptional player, always top of the leaderboard. Black ops 2 comes around and knocks it out of the park, despite a crappy beginning release. Now I don't know if I can say I have high hopes for BO3, because the launch issues BO2 had were pretty minor in game mechanics, like spawns and whatnot. BO3 has good spawns, I won't lie. At least I havent been dogged by em too hard. But the issues at launch for BO3 are so scattererd I can't even really offer advice. Playing this series so long, BO3 felt like the down syndrome brother to BO2. Improved graphics, wall running and insanely obnoxious specialists all sum up a pretty bad game. ("did we mention we added water play??") I always played the COD series for the multiplayer experience. Each game offered me something I enjoyed. Even Ghosts, the most hated game of all. At least ghosts had immaculate hit detection and unique, fun to use guns. Shots fired. BO3 is so uncharismatic it HURTS. The guns are lame, the gun sounds are lame (exception: snipers) and gun feel is lame. When you pick up a gun, it should feel unique. In bo3, there are maybe 3 guns that really feel different. And that's just minute. This feels like a copy pasted edition of the series, and really was disgusting. I played the beta, had a bad time. Picked up the game for whatever reason, hated it every day. I played BO3 hard, I mean really hard. Because I wanted to see if it was just me. It is a harder game, sure. But my learning curve time is quick, every game until now I have bested in the first week. Its been nearly a month, and I still hate it. TTK is egregious, the guns are egregious, the new abilities are egregious, and this game is egregious. I have never felt more taken advantage of from a developer, as this game was so highly hyped. Why? no idea. I was SO skeptical when AW came out, because of all the changes made. But it turns out AW is my favourite COD now, I have more hours in that game than all the others. Not combined, but definitely a lot. And that game is only a year old. After AW I was excited for a slower, more conventional cod. they messed it up. Its not slower, in that you can play it casually. If you want to do even decently, you have to lean forward and tough it out. Its unbalanced in the guns, if its a big map I'm screwed. if its a small map Im screwed. You need to make like 50 classes just to cope with the unbalanced guns. The guns that are good for long range, die at close. The guns that are good for close, die at range. Thats normal for the series, yeah. But its NOT normal how badly the gap counters your efforts. Usually when there is an OP gun in a COD its actually a sign of balancing. Believe it or not, it means that a select few guns are consistent. BO3 is nothing but inconsistent guns. I never noticed a SINGLE trend. No one using one gun, no one sticking to one gun. Its all over, and no one is consistent. The fact that my K/D is over 1 right now baffles me. I feel like this game punishes you with its lack of care, and the Vonderhaar and his buddies felt like this was just another one for the bank. Sure, its playable, sure, it's manageable. But its not enjoyable at all. Really, it isn't. I have never played a game for a month straight and said to myself, "Why are you still playing this trash?" Even ghosts I was having a blast. I feel like BO3 is just a poorly edited conglomeration of a million COD's worst qualities mashed into one. It's painful. I would rate this game a 2. Worst COD I have ever played.… Expand

    Crap ops 3, terrible Game. I hope they get bankrupt since CoD is dead since MW2. But they obviously didn't learnt from their releases and just keep doing Crap of duty after crap of duty.

    Not just the worst CoD port for PC, but possibly the worst PC port i've seen yet. The fact that this game is capable of maxing out 16 GB of Physical Memory and the Vram of a Titan X (which is just absolute Horse s***...) AND that it's STILL giving major issues to those of us with i5s leaves me completely flabbergasted, speechless, and any other fancy word you can think of.

What astonishes me more is how this game is apparently capable of running on 7th gen consoles without a hitch in comparison. I don't get it, how does F***king Activision get away with selling a horrendously optimized port of CoD for PC for the past 4-5 years! I implore you people, vote with your wallets and force Activision to triple check their damned ports before buying em. Get refunds if it's not too late, don't preorder the next CoD title for PC, this S*** has got to stop already as it is becoming nonsensical...… Expand

    Impossible to play. FPS drops. Servers with huge lags. Can't connect to the servers. If you edit a class against the bots the game freezes. Gets Disconnected wile in a match a lot of times and then lose all the exp. Expensive game with a lot of problems. Poor optimization and very very slow company patchs to solve everything.

    I didn't expect that from Treyarch. I really liked both Black Ops and Black Ops 3.. But after playing this.. (cough) **** I thought it's Infinity Ward's CoD. Awful graphics, no optimization whatsoever. Boring singleplayer, characters. There's nothing good in this game. Not even multiplayer. One of the worst CoD games EVER made. I rate 3 out of 10.

    Игра, которую по степени переоценённости и наглости в проплачивании рецензий игрожуров не смог переплюнуть даже новый Фоллаут. Сделать это было сложно, но активижн своего добились. Снимаю шляпу.

    Esse jogo é uma porcaria de nível absurdo! A treyArch pagou a metacritic para apagar meus comentários!!! Além de acharem que comentários em Português são abusivos!
    Eu já escrevi 3 reviews negativos do jogo, sem ofensas ou palavrões. E os caras pagos pela TreyArch ficam apagando os reviews! Coisa feia.

    Terrible matchmaking, even when the servers are supposedly ok and you're sitting on NAT type Open. Sitting around for 15+ minutes just to try and join any game isn't worth it.

    Waste of money... This is the worst cod i have ever seen. Can't even get 35 fps on multiplayer, and i think treyarch just doesn't care about it. And the campaign is the worst in series too. (Yeah, the game is even worse than Ghosts)

    For a series that has prided itself on its 60 fps gunplay Black Ops III on PC is another shoddy port that suffers from lack of optimization. Stuttering is so frequent as to render the game unplayable. Highly recommend waiting to see if the issues are fixed. If you already have bought it you can get a refund through Steam.

    Sci-fi is cool, CoD (more or less) cool but mixing together wasn't a particularly good idea...again. Story is a huge whatever (again), gameplay too. Stuttering on 870 GTX is very frustrating, has lots of typical big studio optimalization bugs. FFS, in 2015, it's not enough. Maybe the game itself it's good for 13 y olds but maybe not. Whatevs, I'm selling this crap - if I can.

    Definitive stutter benchmark for your pc.
    Extra textures need 10 gb vram at 1080p,incredible but true.
    For 4k resolution you need a gpu with 24 gb of vram i think.
    Incredible **** optimization for a good game.:(

This is the same issue that Batman Arkham Knight had, not sure if the company outsourced the game to others, or they just didn't put the time into the PC version as they did the consoles. Either way it's a disgrace and should be taken down until they fix it, if that’s even possible.

    In future if a company can’t be bothered to properly develop a game for PC, then just don’t bother. We don’t want your crappy ports and shoddy practises. People pay hard earned money for these products and you have the audacity to sell this game in its current state? It's borderline criminal and unacceptable. Don’t buy this game or get a refund on Steam quick.

    A bit better than the Ghosts, but worse than Advanced Warfare – new Call of Duty is awkwardly trying to make some changes in single player, but adding a bunch of technical problems in the same time. Multiplayer it is flawless as usual. [Issue#258]

    Treyarch gives us a Call of Duty game that is brimming with content and is sure to provide hundreds of hours of entertainment to its buyers. It’s just a shame that the focus on the quantity of content ended up causing a lack of polish in some areas.
