    One of the best cods from last 5 years. Multiplayer feels amazing and campaign is short but rich.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Activision has revealed the first trailer for the zombie mode Call of Duty: Vanguard. There is a version completely in Russian.Although everyone who wanted to, already had time to watch it a few hours before the premiere due to a failure of YouTube algorithms. edgehammer Games, Treyarch and Activision publishing still showed the first trailer of the zombie mode Call of Duty: Vanguard with hordes of monsters, threatening speeches of villains and Billy Ailish. This time it's official.

    Now you can watch it not only in normal resolution and quality, but also completely in Russian.

    The game will be released on November 5 on personal computers, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X / Series.

    I do not recommend buying, only at a big discount.
    Game for a maximum of a couple of days, then you will be unbearably bored

    Полная хрень. Сюжет - отстойное говно. Покупать не советую.

    Complete crap. The plot is crap. I do not recommend buying.

    Why are we doing WW2 again? HOW MANY TIMES ARE WE GOING TO BE DOING THE SAME NONSENSE. Woke garbage and changing of history to fit that woke agenda is horrible. New engine apparently and it looks awful. I'm done with call of duty. Just done.

    Very bad overall. Firing is kinda not fun. Hit boxes are random. Maps are or too big or too small. You respawn next to enemies to get killed and repeat. The worst Call of Duty.

    Zombie mode is bad. Sniping is absolutely terrible Maps are dope, gameplay is terrible. 2 gun metas. Campaign is utterly boring. Multiplayer has poorly level designed maps, they look good, but poorly executed and no passion on the multiplayer side.

    Time to switch to Battlefield 2042.

    Absolute garbage. I played for several hours in the open multiplayer beta and deleted it the same day. This review will cover only multiplayer. Note that I haven’t played CoD seriously since BO3.

    Pros - • weapon customization Cons - • historically inaccurate, sometimes criminally • awful multiplayer maps • bad spawns (spawning behind enemies or even in front of them) • guns either kill
    Absolute garbage. I played for several hours in the open multiplayer beta and deleted it the same day. This review will cover only multiplayer. Note that I haven’t played CoD seriously since BO3.

    Pros -
    • weapon customization

    Cons -
    • historically inaccurate, sometimes criminally
    • awful multiplayer maps
    • bad spawns (spawning behind enemies or even in front of them)
    • guns either kill in two shots or are hit marker simulators, there is no middle ground
    • kill streaks (instead of score streaks) encourage players to play TDM in every game mode and ignore objectives
    • boring kill streak rewards
    • so many explosions and particles that you literally cannot see anything in some maps (my particles were turned all the way down!)
    • way too much flair with very little substance

    Play the open beta and see for yourself. Don’t waste your money on this garbage.

    SBMM Ruins it a little bit. Gunplay and sound design are still a downgrade from modern warfare sadly. Also the operators ruin it a bit i think along with the censorship. Shotguns are broken atm.
    That's about it, still a solid CoD tho.

    Shame, the Call of duty (2019) was so good at the begin, they can ruined everything. This call of duty is total carp, zero balance of the game, so many cheater, its only a re-skin of call of duty modern warfare. No thanks.

    One of the buggiest pieces of software I came across. Multiplayer is barely playable, I receive "packet burst" nearly every 30secs and my game basically holds for one second.

    As typical, another Call of Duty game been butchered and removed all suspension of disbelief when it comes to historical accuracy. From Germans using Sturmgewehr-44 in 1942 Stalingrad to some girl running around like she's another Assassin's creed character. German juggernaught soldier's who guard high-ranked villains, inaccurate uniform and tank model representations for their times along with a whole list I could mention. It's not worth your money unless you desperately want to support historical inaccuracies and play some power-fantasy campaign. Multiplayer doesn't feel innovated compared to the previous games and the attachments with most guns are nowhere near WW2-esque to be believable. This game had alot of potential from the trailers, but was butchered and ruined by their simple and non-existant historical sources and writing. Zombies is not even worth mentioning as it becomes boring very fast, nothing innovated other than few missions you do and then jump into some portal from multiplayer maps that got changed over to Zombie-styled theme. Activision shouldn't get away with 60 bucks for this. Hope this helps someone save their money.

Гейм дизайн ужасен, враги справа, слева, спереди и сзади. Строить какие-то тактики невозможно. Спавнишься, убиваешь 1-2 игрока, умираешь, опять спавнишься. Звуки стрельбы можно было сделать и лучше.

    Super fun.... for about 2 hours

    Disregarding the bug and errors (of which there are many and which we know will never be fixed), after about 2 hours the sbmm will kick in and the game is unplayable.

    Not because of sbmm per say, but the game will start mactching you with so wide that the desync is about 2 x ttk. Which makes the game completly unplayable

    I could go and brag about all the bad things, but if i would do that i would just repeat what has been already said. So i would like to point out... The Brain Dead AI. Like seriosly those have so little code in them they have to stop in the middle of the charge or just stand there like they were complete retard also the invincible walls are something.

    This game brought me back to playing COD.
    Love the historical narrative. And sprinkled with precise historical facts like Adolf reading the Madison Grant's book. Love the attention to detail.

    Yeah i really like single player campaigns.
    Also Laura Bailey is a voice actress.

    Once again terrible maps, it is impossible to control, you kill one you are killed from eight sides, return the level of the map designers who created Bo1 mv2-3
    it is not possible to play it, you make a game for those who come in once every two weeks, and call of duty fans spit in the soul, and the desire to compete disappears and interest in call of duty is generally los

    Call of Duty: Vanguard maintains the usual high level of production of the Call of Duty series, with an excellent cinematic narrative that allows players to have an audio-visual experience of being in the battlefield. The online content is also excellent, the new zombie mode has many good parts, but the thin content makes it difficult to retain players for a long time. Overall, it is still a popular FPS worth trying.

    With Vanguard, Call of Duty returns to the roots of the series: World War II. The solo campaign is entertaining but short, and the multiplayer is exactly as expected: full of action and adrenalin. However, the few novelties are not spectacular enough to lift it above mediocrity.
