    Single player is so awesome. Other shooters should learn from cod ww2 about storytelling and make action scenes. I would like to see the same things I see in Battlefront 2

    The developers finally returned to the Second World War and not every starry warriors there, I really liked it. I strongly advise you not to regret it! I do not know why all users put ratings 0-3 because this game pulls on all 11!

    Just giving a 10 because I really want to don't stop doing WW2 games. I enjoy the singleplayer campaing, but the story was too much "AMERICAN HERO STORY".

    Для меня, наверное эта часть останется лучшей в серии. Забытая стилистика с хорошим графоном и приятной стрельбой. Звуки на высоте. Из-за того, что от сюжета я не ждал от слова "ничего", я приятно удивился, неожиданная завязка и пик приходятся на конец, что странно. Очень понравился механника с асистами от тимейтов.Для меня, наверное эта часть останется лучшей в серии. Забытая стилистика с хорошим графоном и приятной стрельбой. Звуки на высоте.

    Way more modes including the genius war mode. Way more content, weapons. Real teams (armys) in multiplayer mode instead of operators who are all beating nazis in the victory sequences which makes zero sense. Better feel. less glitches.

    Buy Call of Duty: WW2 and the season pass and support this far superior game to CoD Vanguard! You can also play this game on PS5 and Xbox Series X

    You can also play this game on PS5 and Xbox Series X through backward compatibility or buy it in their digital stores. You can also get it for a few dollars as a used physical copy. Please also buy the season pass in the digital store to support this great game.

    The campaign is simply a masterpiece!
    She is a travelling companion and very enlightening.
    Thus, everyone can really experience what it means to have been in the war and what sacrifices and pain it caused.

    I am not a fan of COD, well except 1 and 2 parts. It is world classics. The last years 5 after Black Ops 2 a series constantly degraded, well except Black Ops 3. Infinite Warfare has just punched a bottom. And here from WW2 you wait like nothing, even the setting causes only irritation, the pier was decided to haypanut here on the best in a series.

And here from WW2 you wait like nothing, even the setting causes only irritation, the pier was decided to haypanut here on the best in a series. And here such surprise! Well just sound shooter about World War II. Story about one group. Well registered characters and the given history (at such level only Black Ops has been worked out). Yes it is the same shooting gallery as before, but now everything is fascinating, missions on the equipment within the concept of COD are perfectly made. CGI rollers are perfectly made. Not small money is invested in them, it is visible that Activision has enclosed in which eyelids money in the product. Graphics perfectly looks only in general if not to peer into details. And so, it is the level 2013/2014 of years. In general it is one of the best shooters of 2017, and he looks better than new Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus. What is very laudable)
    PS. The multiplayer both was boring and backward and remained it. It is a pity that in him nothing changes from year to year. And the most important - most of people hates new COD not because it so but because it is already tradition.

    O jogo apresenta alguns erros sim. A campanha é curta (como sempre), o multi é massante e o desempenho no PC não é um primor... mas dar nota baixa ou zero como as pessoas vem fazendo é haterismo. O game voltou as origens e está bem maneiro. É perfeito? Longe disso, mas consegui me divertir e me emocionar pra caramba!

    Ignore the haters as they will give any Call of Duty game a zero before they've even played it. While there has been no major upheaval of the basic COD formula, it still delivers a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

While there has been no major upheaval of the basic COD formula, it still delivers a thoroughly enjoyable experience. I especially appreciate the slower pace of the single player campaign and the fact that is significantly less forgiving then recent iterations of the series. No more ducking behind a wall for 5 seconds and miraculously regenerating all of your lost health. Now you must find health packs a use them wisely. I also enjoy the squad member abilities that you can call on from time to time. It's a small thing, but it adds to the overall sense of you being part of a team as opposed to being a one-man army. Multiplayer and zombies return pretty much intact though much has been made of loot boxes in multiplayer. While one may question the motives of Activision behind their inclusion, as a player I freely ignore and am personally not bothered by them while I am in the game. That said, I am not of fan of micro-transactions and it is not something I am looking for in my games.

    If you've stuck with and enjoyed the COD series up to this point, then I promise you will enjoy COD WW2 as well. Ignore the hate and decide for yourselves.

    Well done Activision, after two years of successfully avoiding your yearly copy and paste but somehow simultaneously getting worse and worse I relented and bought this - mainly due to my affection of World at War. Well, it turns out that eight-year-old game is better in every single way. Congrats on the hype train, I bought a ticket - and now, after one day, I'm getting off. Abysmal.

    Great Campaign, mess of an online
    Call of Duty WWII comes from the sledgehammer studio that made advanced warfare and modern warfare 3…
    This game features a 5 and a half hour long campaign, a Nazi zombies mode and of course an online competitive mode
    The star of this game is hands down the campaign..
    Here you play as Daniels, a member of the United States army during World War II…
    You occasionally play as a few surprise characters to infiltrate or take control of a tank for example...
    But the games campaign mostly focuses on him…
    And the story here is so personal, that for the first time in call of duty’s history I felt this soldier and his story wasn’t throw away…
    Easily my favorite campaign in the entire call of duty series…
    These characters are so fleshed out, all having their own personalities to them... it feels like an interactive movie..
    You have a girl waiting for you to get home, and you feel her pulling you through the entire way as you feel immersed in the battleground of world war 2
    Unique to this campaign is that you have to manage your health…
    It’s definitely takes some time getting used to patching yourself up rather than taking cover and waiting for your health to regenerate..
    But this leaves you being more cautious and aware of cover…
    This health management is made less of a nuisance thanks to your squad members... stopping this from feeling like a survival game…
    depending on the mission you’re on you’ll have different squad mates with a cool down meter to give you a med pack or ammo for example.. Mark enemies in the field…
    Again immersing me into the game, caring about my position and where my squad mates are…
    There aren’t really those epic moments you’d expect from a call of duty campaign... as this one feels more grounded in reality…
    But there is plenty of variety as you’ll be in the trenches, in a tank, in a plane, you’ll go undercover as a Nazi.. There are car chases...
    Making this campaign hard to step away from…
    but once your time in the campaign is over its back to what you’re used to from call of duty// zombies, multiplayer, and regenerating health…
    The zombies mode this time is all about Nazi tech, you’re killing zombies for points to buy new weapons, armor, upgrades, and unlocking gates and fulfilling objectives, not so much boarding up windows this time around…
    And then there’s the online multiplayer which currently during launch weekend is a complete mess…
    The game will get stuck on a load screen… there are server issues that force you to reset your router to fix.. End game results freeze on screen not giving any indication anything is happening... finding a match is a chore…
    once you do finally get a match you’re thrown into your typical call of duty modes around some pretty weak maps…
    probably my least favorite maps in the game’s history…
    And since this is a world war 2 game the weapon variety doesn’t feel that present …
    you start choosing your infantry out of 5 choices based on your play style and working on leveling them up to unlock their unique perks…
    making matches and players more unpredictable…
    once you choose your infantry you’re given that classes weapon, though you aren’t stuck with it as you can unlock any gun with rank tokens…
    And then you take your favorite gun out into the call of duty world and level it up to unlock attachments for it…
    Pretty typical stuff
    There are also daily challenges for you to do to unlock items like supply drops or earn currency to buy cards in game and unlock a special weapon or cosmetic item to give you an xp bonus or a one hit kill bonus in zombies…
    giving players something to work towards and play for online..
    It could be just me... but the maps, modes, and variety of weapons just couldn’t hook me…
    And the games awful server issues at launch didn’t help this...
    That being said... this game is worth picking up on its own for its campaign...
    I give Call of Duty WWII
    an 8/10

    I couldn't put less points, but wanted. This game has amazing graphics, gameplay is a step back. But Sledgehammer Games was able to show a real war. It showed the war without embellishment, real, brutal war. We have forgotten what it is. We used fun to kill enemies in video games without hesitation. After CALL OF DUTY: WWII start to appreciate the peaceful times in which we live.

    The story tells the usual story of a military soldier. Together with brothers in arms wades through a real hell. We've seen similar stories in games, the war has not been shown so realistically. Basically, this effect causes dismemberment. Very often we will see people without body parts, burning people and the atrocities of the Nazis.

    The plot is simple, but you believe in this war, believe what is happening on the screen. All the characters have their own character, everyone has their demons. It is interesting to observe the drama of the characters.

    The gameplay is now in spirit first every part OF CALL OF DUTY. Because of this the gameplay has become more boring. You sit behind cover and aims at enemies. Diversity is not. But there is one good innovation. The developers decided to implement in a single company element of teamwork. If we need supplies, first aid kit or swegene about the enemy - we are asking comrades. This is an interesting thing. and Yes, now health itself is not restored - it is necessary to look for kits. Here you don't feel like a super soldier ready to kill everyone, you could die at any moment.

    Call of Duty: WWII is a game about realistic warfare. A single company is not very long, but no time to get bored. It's not the best Call of Duty, gameplay and artistic design can to lose IW, but nevertheless it was nice to return to the battlefields of WWII.

    P.S. The PC version suffers from bad optimization. Change already the engine! You can not get it to properly optimize! On PC to buy the game just is not necessary.

    Only playing campaign. Initial thoughts is that the game is gorgeous. Textures, faces and environment are polished to the pixel. Game play is really fun, though is a bit chaotic. Works if you just want to come in, finish an operation and get your fix. Guns feel good and head shots are satisfying.

    Then there are these tank tasks where you are expected to sneak behind a tank and blow it

    Then there are these tank tasks where you are expected to sneak behind a tank and blow it up. Extremely boring. I guess its because the regular push and shoot gets old, but eh, it's what I'm here for.

    As for the story, forgettable. Found myself not caring for the progression of the characters at all. No NPC held any weight through out the missions and they all seemed disposable. That is until the last 3 missions where things really picked up and climaxed to a great ending. Liked it more than I thought I would.

    Turned out to be one of my favorite COD campaigns.

    2. People that like or are fine with playing single player because single player is one of the best and main things in the game plus the multiplayer is fine but not as fun as other multiplayer games like CSGO but we still need to wait a little bit before we know if it’s good or just fine because not enough people are playing at the moment so some game mods like capture the flag, nazi zombies and more are not working cuz not Enough people are playing at the moment. and also more updates are coming so that also may make the experience better.

    Again the game came out yesterday so the game may become better in the future from updates.

    The new Call of Duty is like a shopping list, in which the devs list one second-rate cliché after another. It's not always for the sake of it, but it's already making the WWII unique that everybody should play. [Issue#280]

    A magnificent, but also a sympathetic, unpretentious return to the roots of the series. Yet the campaign is short-lived, and your next experience depends on how much you enjoy the multiplayer and/or shooting Nazi zombies.
