    this game is the biggest insult to the intelligence of the player, they believe that by adding maps of previous games in one and doing battle royal to join the car, with that they think we are stupid

    Game is okay. Play it at my brother's house, but kept getting jump shot around corners. look it up and seems to be a glitch that allowed people to see you first. Kind of annoying. Games seems a bit laggy too. Blackout is a bit fun, but didn't like it. I guess it comes down to preferences and I just didn't like it.

    I don't play battle royale. But I play multiplayer. This game is fool of random death from bombs, choppers and stuff like that. There is no game mode 6 vs 6 without anything. Matchmaking is absolutely horrible: cant pick mode, map and skill balance. If you lvl1 you might get in game with 200lvl guys. Fix it.

    This is horrible. There are more cheaters than legit players. This game has ZERO anti cheat technology. Reports are being ignored, Nazi flag emblems also. The gameplay is very unprecise, the classes dont make any difference they just confuse. I am glad I bought it via g2a, because this isnt worth more than 10$.

    The league doesnt work AT ALL. I waited for half an hour - no game found.

    UPDATE: Blitzed with micro transactions and terrible progression. They ruined a great product.
    While Blackout is good, I am in love with the MP. It is so buttery smooth, and we finally have some deviation from the 3 lane map formula that started to drive me insane in the later CODs. Heist and Control are two excellent new game types which keep it fresh as well. Its not perfect, but it's finally done something to make itself different from previous titles. A lot of the reviews mention the lack of campaign, I will get far more value out of Blackout than I would have from a campaign, so I see it as a fair trade.    … Expand

    This game is decent online. But the shady microtransactions added post reviews is pathetic and greedy. Pay for skins, then be forced to grind or pay more $ to receive the skins you already paid for? Nah. i'll pass. I've hated on fortnite but for a game with transactions they seem to be doing it right.

BO4 is impressive in many ways, but to me it's all shallow window dressing catering to the leaderboard crowd. Anyway - I strongly feel that the backbone of a game should be a strong single-player campaign of reasonable length. I don't need 100 hours, or even 40. Give me 10-20 hours with good replayability, and I'm set. If you DO give me 100 hours, I'll probably play it for 200 hours. Multiplayer-only basically releases devs from having to do any kind of writing, telling any kind of story - the online players are the only feature. Not for me.… Expand

    It's also worth noting that I'm usually pretty negative when it comes to this franchise. It hasn't been amazing for some time. Previous Black Ops games were good, but not amazing like MW1 and 2. This is back up to standard. Give this game a chance and you won't regret it.

Games like Infection, one in the chamber, one shot and gun game have also disappeared from this game's playlist unfortunately.

I absolutely love what they have done with that mode; however, I'm severely disappointed by the lack of content that has been added since the release of Black Ops 4. There are several issues I have with this video game, one of them being the micro-transaction system. Currently, you either have to grind for approximately 60 days to get all of the "content" that is in this title, or spend an absurd amount of money. For example, if you like a particular camouflage that is behind supply drops, you have to get it for every single gun in the game. That's just ridiculous! Also, the time to kill in multi-player, at least in core game modes, is much too long on most weapons, other than snipers and specialist weapons. Who thought that was a good idea? Lastly, the removal of single-player was absolutely stupid. Some people, including myself, love campaigns in Call of Duty.

    Multiplayer Mode:

I'm not saying it only because I was loosing, it worked both ways; I could not fire a single bullet and my team would win the game. There is nothing the losing team can do once an enemy team gets a battleship or attack helicopter killstreak. I'm going back to Black Ops 3 multiplayer.
    Zombie Mode:
    Zombies are ok. You have new monsters, elixirs, perks etc. You can kill some time with it, but zombies with each iteration of the franchise lose the appeal to me. Maps are so big and puzzles so difficult, that they stop being fun at all. Just treacherous and tedious shooting and running around the giant map.

    (The Bad Things)
    The guns are the usual reskins.
    Vehicles in Battle Royale is one of the worst ideas ever, it's bad enough you can be run over by them, now you give the vehicles turrets?
    Gameplay in general is mostly boring.
    Combat is just mindless button mashing at best.
    Friendly fire is active at all times during Battle Royale.
    Teammates are uncooperative for the most part, many times even a threat.
    Microtransactions everywhere, anything from a map in zombie mode, to a red dot sight for your rifle.
    This multiplayer PVP game has aim assist.
    Hitboxes are garbage.
    Occasionally shots don't register.

    (Good things)
    Zombie mode is okay alone, or with friends.
    Battle Royale can have its' moments, when the team actually works together.
    Battle Royale is okay alone, or with friends.

    I'd recommend you drink heavily if you intend to play this game, though that may just make you angry.

    Also there is no campaign, though I can't decide if that's for better or worse in a series that clearly only cares about what makes the most money.    … Expand

I was unfortunate enough to get suckered into purchasing the black ops pass thinking it would provide some cool content or incentives for purchasing it but like many others was left feeling completely ripped off. They might as well have just marketed this game as a strictly battle royal game only and left out the traditional multiplayer because the BR mode is the only one they actually put any real effort into and unfortunately I'm not a fan of that genre of game. The multiplayer is filled with horrible spawn points that leave you frequently getting spawn killed, quickscopers, horrible match balancing that results in sometimes playing for hours without a single win due to very unbalanced teams, and lastly the specialists that were supposed to be the selling point in the game that end up making it the most annoying experience of all. Most of the specialists are useless, a lot the specialists abilities are extremely OP (Zero). I do not see this game lasting as long as they marketed it for, once Modern Warfare drops the playerbase for this game in multiplayer is going to have a huge drop off.… Expand

    This game is just a damn travesty. I'll tell you why further down, but first off let me address the things they did right: Gunplay is predictably solid has been polished by nearly two decades of perfecting the Call of Duty formula. Visuals are fantastic plain and simple, and emblem/weapon customization is unexpectedly in-depth. Now these are about the only things they've gotten right.This game is just a damn travesty. I'll tell you why further down, but first off let me address the things they did right: Gunplay is predictably solid has been polished by nearly two decades of perfecting the Call of Duty formula. Visuals are fantastic plain and simple, and emblem/weapon customization is unexpectedly in-depth. Now these are about the only things they've gotten right. Hidden beneath all of the usual CoD-iness you'll find that the game is engineered in every way possible to nickel and dime players in the most atrocious methods possible. Let me address the most ridiculous thing they decided to do: Lock weapons behind lootboxes. These weapons are the S6 Stingray, the Peacekeeper, the Locus, and the Ballistic Knife. This has to be the most scummy thing I've ever seen happen in a game. The usual progression system has been thrown through the weapon in favor of an EA-esque "Surprise Mechanics" style of locking content behind gambling. You could pour in hundreds of dollars into these "reserve crates" and get naught for your efforts, so imagine how nonsensical it is for them to lock behind any amount of content behind an in game purchase. I've just recently played a game against someone that was lucky enough to be graced with a ballistic knife and it was ridiculous. A melee weapon that has the capabilities of shooting an insta-killing projectile. That's the type of stuff Activision is bribing their playerbase with. The incentive for giving in to Treyarch's demands and acquiescing any number of reserve crates through real money is complete unhindered access to weapons that only the rich or lucky 1% could ever get their hands on. This represents issues on a much deeper scale than previously thought possible. Not to mention how O' Generous Treyarch has decided to "bless" us with an in-game event where we get free access to DLC maps for a whopping whole two days. Why thank ye kind masters, this bountiful feast would surely excuse the shoveling of unwanted lootboxes down every single one of our loyal throats, so please keep on pouring! Surely one of the loyal peasantry would get the opportunity to have been bequeathed the god-tier S6 Stingray by our almighty overlords before they **** US AND TAKE OUR WALLETS. This goddamn behavior is INEXCUSABLE. What has possessed these fools to lock every ounce of content behind paywalls? There's no singleplayer campaign, blackout is a damn joke, zombies might be fun for those that like horde shooters, maps that would've otherwise been added to the base game in any other situation are sold to us in "packs" and wagged in front of us like a freaking chewtoy, and finally they decide to shove weapons into slot machines to incentivize gambling. What a damn joke this was, unfortunately I already bought the game or else I'd have never touched thus franchise with ten foot rod. Heed my words naive adventurer, stay as far away from this unholy cesspool of a game if you can help it. You will only end up $30-60 lighter and will only feed this damn demon's bottomless greed. Do not encourage these anti-consumer practices and do not fall prey to Activision's schemes.… Expand

Have the time when I play a multiplayer game, it queues me in when the game is 90 - 20. It's also obvious that they only want money considering the loot box system is completely **** You are not going to get a gun you want unless you get a bribe or a crate. And wouldn't you know it you have to buy crates. It wouldn't be much of a problem if it weren't for the most overpowered weapons in the game were only able to be gotten in the crate. For examples of the guns: Stingray, Daemon, and ballistic knife. You can also tell that they were lazy by all of the maps. Half of them were just reused. You could also tell the laziness because they completely took out the campaign. Just why. And then you got blackout. You could tell the company was just going to try with this because fortnite was popular at the time. Yet it sucked. Like a lot. It's the only thing I can't really play in bo4. Half the time when I'm playing I just get ran over. When you got to league play half the guns have been removed. That's how you know the game is completely unbalanced. This is not a complete list of things wrong with the game but I just wanted to give an idea. But if you're thinking about buying the game just don't. I wasted my money on it and am just unhappy.

Now lets get to the point, I was very disappointed. I had high hopes for this game and Activision through it out the window. Ever since Fortnite came out, 12 year olds started to love the game and it was a big hit to the video game world. The game had two aspects that influenced developers to copy this down. First of all they got the tier list which was the more exp you gained the more you could unlock. And you had the premium version and the normal version. On to the second aspect was the battle royal, of course there had already been games with a battle royal, but not as intense as Fortnite. With 100 players and a boundary closing in on players which makes the game a little more intense. Even though PUBG did this before people still ignored that. A new battle royal and a tier list influenced game creators. So games started having these tier lists and battle royals included. And you may be wondering, what does this have to do with COD. Well the people who played the game is obvious. When I heard that Black Ops had a battle royal like Fortnite's, I was exited. I bought the game then when I opened it up, it was somewhat good. It was decent for a few days until I found out that there was no story mode. And i was mortified dammit! A COD game with no story mode............ God did what! And apparently there was a story mode, but it was a tutorial merged with the story. And that made it even worse. The cutsences were short, and when I mean short, it was like 10 seconds long. Maybe even shorter. The gameplay wasn't even part of the story. Actually should i even try to call it some sort of story. If they just put it as a tutorial and not show any resemblance of a story, and just showed all the characters backstories, I would give this game a 5. For my standards anything a 5 or over is good game and rating. The tutorial made the game bad, not horrible but just bad.… Expand

Will they be back? Will they disappear forever? Nobody knows. All of these extra multiplayer modes (nuketown, sticks and stones, etc.) and blackout modes just need to stay in the game 100% of the time. Also, there are guns that you can ONLY get by paying real money. The kicker? They’re THE BEST GUNS IN THE GAME. Black ops 4 is a complete pay to win mess, and treyarch and activision are complacent in this garbage. Save your money, do NOT buy this game.

    Lets start with Blackout a controversial mode put in because battle royale was popular at the time and got rid of the campaign (most likely from all the hate towards bo3 campaign as well). This had so much potential and sadly it flopped..... hard. We got one new location in the entirety of a year, i hate to compare it to fortnite but at least they consistently kept it fresh to keep the player base playing the game. Zombies where a nice addition though and quest items to get characters was a great addition I really liked and sadly we never got anymore after launch apart from Multiplayer outfits. Some of the new modes where interesting with the best being the small Alcatraz map mode, none though really surprised me so I just stuck to playing the core modes.

    Multiplayer was bad as well. Most of the weapons which came with the new operation where way too overpowered and didn't get the necessary nerf. How can i forget to talk about the god awful specialist and how overpowered some where to others eg. torque was useless while nomad was op. This really ruined the experience and most of the new maps where completely forgettable. Finally the modes in this were fine like the st patricks day mode was fun and so was heist but sadly we didn't get enough new and unique modes but ones we already had in previous games (just like the specialist)

    Zombies.... this breaks my heart how this went from the massive hype of bo3 to this absolute trainwreck. We are introduced to a new crew named the chaos crew which where forgettable with the only real characterization going to scarlett and the other characters, well, you will have to read comics for. Four launch maps was unbelievable, but sadly only one of the maps was the high quality which we expected, this map was IX. Voyage of despair was tedious to play and the two Aether maps where remakes which destroyed their classic maps. Then came the DLC season..... damn this was horrible. Dead of the Night was garbage, too many zombie types and new characters was an insulting punch to the player base. No content for a long time after that, I believe it was for four months. Blackout and Multiplayer getting consistent updates while the zombie playerbase was given nothing but gauntlets which where boring. Finally we get ancient evil its great but its on the Bo4 engine so eh it will be forgotten sadly. Alpha Omega and Tag Der Toten where bad, no CGI intros or outros for the end of 10 years, this was bad, what happened, well probably funding cuts. How are the maps? just like all the other bo4 maps, forgettable. The ending to zombies pissed a lot of people of, it pisses me off but not as much, its the closure we needed, still we wanted a satisfying ending not a shocking ending. Also factions.... we don't talk about that.

    Specialist HQ is one of the most insulting things added, trying to add a campaign story to get you excited for probably the next black ops. Don't get me wrong I like the idea it has but really did we need cutscenes? no we just want to try out the specialist to see what they do. So yeah this was trash.

    All the broken promises, laziness and greedy tactics is what destroyed what could of been a return to form but sadly this continues the spiral down for the call of duty franchise. Maybe we get a call of duty every two years to polish the games and never get a disaster like bo4 again.    … Expand

    Good lord, what a waste of time. Treyarch has clearly lost their touch. I thought that Black Ops 3 was an average game at most, a 5-6 out of 10. Not the worst CoD game I've ever played, but it definitely held the title as my least favorite in the series.

A multiplayer mode that took core aspects of COD gameplay and threw it into the trash in favor of MORE Specialists and other B.S.

Blackout was nothing more than Fortnite and PUBG with a Call of Duty skin (and with graphics that would've been bad on a PlayStation 2). Zombies is still the best gamemode (it was the best in BO3 as well), but even then it's a severe downgrade. As much as I enjoy playing maps like "IX" and "Blood of the Dead", it doesn't make up for the outright atrocities of "Voyage of Despair" and "Dead of the Night", and the fact that the final two Aether maps EVER were nothing more than remakes of "Nuketown" and "Call of the Dead" with no CGI cutscenes was insulting to the Zombies community.

    Do not buy this game. Do not even get it when it's free. Treyarch should have to pay YOU to play this trainwreck. It's very clear that the devs gave up on Black Ops 4 very early in its life cycle. And if the devs don't care about the game, then why should us players care about it?    … Expand

I wouldn't say it is the best Call of Duty Black Ops, because black ops 2 will forever be the best Call of Duty ever. Although black ops 4 is up there, it's just not quite there. I want to start off with the bad things about the game that i don’t like or things that i would change. First I am very disappointed that there is no campaign, that was something I looked forward to in every single call of duty and for it to not be in this one I was a little upset. I am also not a very big fan of the weapons in the game, I prefer the weapons from like black ops 2 and 3 especially the snipers from those games. Other than those small things I do really enjoy the game and I would recommend it to everyone that likes playing video games, and i'm going to tell you why. First thing is I absolutely love the maps in the game, they all have the main spot where all the action is and I love that and think it's great to get a lot of kills. Next thing I want to say is I absolutely love how there is a battle royale mode in the game. I think this is perfect for the game because everyone loves fortnite and want a game like that and they did a great job putting that in the game and making it so fun to play. Another thing I really enjoy about the game is how they have cool reactive camos, and I'm so happy that they added the weapon accessories and the death effects. For the accessories you can win these little things that hang off the side of your gun from the black market and they have all sorts of things to put on there. I think they did a great job with adding the thing where whenever you level up you get a reward, so it is kind of like the battle pass from fortnite and there are some good rewards you can get too. Now there are a couple reasons why i would recommend this game to almost everyone that plays video games, and the first being it's simple and easy to play. My 5 year old sister can pick up the controller and play the game. It's just too easy, I don't understand how some people are bad at the game. All you have to do is point the gun and shoot, not that hard. Another reason I think everyone should get this game is because if you don't like the multiplayer version then you have other options, zombies and the battle royale version. I play zombies almost everyday and let me tell you it is so fun and I could sit there all day and play the game. You could also play local multiplayer which means that you are playing against bots and not real people so that is fun to just mess around and kill a bunch of bots. Overall I think it is a great game and I would recommend it to everyone that likes shooting games. I think it is a great game for all ages. I also think that the battle royale version is better than fortnite.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Overall not a bad game, the kicker is there in no story. The story or Campaign in COD is what makes the game last. The game seems recycled from Black Ops 3, Operators or whatever. This game seems to have not an ounce of originality. In 10 years no one is going to remember this game, period.… Expand

    The game is originally a semi-finished product with no campaign and only 10 original multiplayer maps with 4 remake, then treyarch provides the worst black market ever with pay to win weapons and supply drops.

    My first cod was mw4, and i fell in love with it: interesting company, pleasant gameplay and a lot of guns. And bocw is nothing of these: very short company, disbalanced gameplay (terrible maps and almost zero weapon damage) and a few guns even after season update. I really regret about buying this game (can i call THIS game?) and wasting my time trying to get enjoyment

It was stripped away of everything that made it fun and enjoyable, while overwhelmingly being filled with bad stage designs, the removal of perk machines, countless constant boss battles, and other useless trinkets. The multiplayer mode was mediocre, as was blackout. I do not recommend this game; Easily the worst call of duty ever made.… Expand

    I hated this game initially, but overtime, i started to give it more leniency. 2/3rds of the budget for this game was just blown on a Battle Royale that was mediocre at best. The lack of a campaign is my biggest complaint, as the story for BO3 has no meaning, especially since BO4 is set 20 years after BO2 and 20 before BO3, and the characters from the first 2 games are just dissed and usedI hated this game initially, but overtime, i started to give it more leniency. 2/3rds of the budget for this game was just blown on a Battle Royale that was mediocre at best. The lack of a campaign is my biggest complaint, as the story for BO3 has no meaning, especially since BO4 is set 20 years after BO2 and 20 before BO3, and the characters from the first 2 games are just dissed and used at nostalgia tactics in this game.

    Multiplayer is mixed for me. Specialists are more broken than how they were in BO3. Prophet, Firebreak, Ajax and Torque are meant for people who aren't good at the game, as their weapon mechanics are to benefit newbie players by stunning them, giving them a shield or allowing them to camp. And they're perhaps the most used specialists in the game

    I also really don't like the 150 health system, as it feels like i have to empty a whole clip into someone. It's the reason i use rapid fire on all my weapons, but whoops! Its like with every gun, they just picked the attachments out of a hat and called it a day. People argue its to benefit how the weapon performs, but how fair is it that an AR like the KN57 has Rapid Fire, but not the ICR-7? Or why can't i dual wield the Strife but i can dual wield the Saug 9mm? Or why can't i have a bayonet on the Rampart 17 but it's on the VAPR? It's all unorthodox.

    Also, the battle pass system...let's keep it, please? Oh, but they still need to make up for the crappy BR mode so we'll add supply drops for the 6th time in a row along with COD Points!

    Zombies is where most of my complaints lie.

    I. Did not. Like. The new perk system. That, along with the create-a-class is just to help out new players, when the previous 4 Treyarch titles had none of that, and it all worked perfectly fine. Half of the new perks are really just filler since they can't sit down and actually come up with something unique, or they couldn't be bothered to bring back older perks that never got a chance (cough Vulture Aid cough Tombstone cough). This was done because "It removes crutch perks". On a technicality, all the perks are crutch because someone depends on Timeslip or Blaze Phase or Stamin-Up. Removing the original perks was a bad move, especially since the Double Tap effect is at it's best when you Pack-A-Punch a weapon 5, count 'em, 5 TIMES....to have it at it's fullest potential.

    Also, the fact you have to pay for a shield, while price rises with each purchase is utterly absurd. A free shield? Nah fam, pay for the damn thing.

    Half the maps are remasters, specifically remasters of Mob of the Dead, Nuketown, Five and Call of the Dead. I understand, some of these maps have a significance in the Aether storyline, but i would still prefer new locations. Chaos is nothing more than a attempt to avoid properly wrapping up the Aether story. I didn't find it interesting at all, despite the maps IX and Ancient Evil being pretty damn good, too good. Voyage of Despair and Dead of the Night didn't have that same consistency when it came to quality, and are hot messes of over complicated features and janky map design.

    The remastered maps stay true to what the original maps had, with some locations on said maps being removed, changed or new ones being added. That didn't justify that it's literally all just re-used assets on a newer engine with no improvement in the quality. At some points, the maps they're re-imagining look better than the re-imagined version.

    The ending for the Aether story did give me a sense of completion, the story is wrapped up. How they executed the ending, i wasn't happy. Playing as the Victis/Tranzit crew on the 4th map remaster with no true final battle just saddens me. Treyarch hyped the ending up to be this final showdown with Dr. Monty and possibly the Shadowman again, except we just got, as i told many before: just another Zombies map.

    BO4 is not the worst COD, but it's definitely the worst Black Ops title. It's an interesting experience to say the least, but i still find myself playing older Black Ops games, specifically BO3 as it's considered the fan favorite.

    If you feel its not worth the money, don't buy it. I just hope Treyarch can see that they need to do better if they want to have another successful title.    … Expand

Je trouve que ce n'est pas un bon call of ce n'est pas le pire loin de la mais je préférer passez mon chemin !

    It’s not that I can’t respect it — it seems to offer decent value in that it’s essentially three different types of shooter in one package, but aside from the new Blackout mode, I’ve had significantly better experiences from many of its competitors. And honestly, Blackout’s main competition is a free-to-play game. It may be better than Fortnite in my opinion, but sixty dollars better? I’m not entirely convinced about that, and without a decent singleplayer campaign attached, it’s a pretty hard sell for anyone who isn’t already a fan.

    Despite its generic title Black Ops IV feels like a fresh start for Call of Duty. The multiplayer and the zombie mode is very much the same as always, but with Blackout, Treyarch takes everything that is good with Player Unknown's Battleground and makes it better.

    With no campaign to test your trigger finger, the trio of a safe (albeit polished) battle royale, waning multiplayer, and rotting Zombies make BLOPS4 feel like a relic next to a post-Forsaken Destiny 2. [Issue#156, p.94]
