    I got the game for free from a friend through the RTX promotion but man this game sucks.

    The campaign was pretty good, but the multiplayer joining now is pure trash.

    SBMM. So many bugs and glitches. Lack of content. Lobbies disband.
    Weapon Leveling and camo challenges. SBMM.

    Jumping and sliding.

    I really like the more realistic game that came right before this, (Modern Warfare). This game is doodoo , but fun and pretty if you just want unrealistic run and gun game play. I'll just keep playing MW.

    This game is absolutely diabolical! The campaign is atrocious with stupid puzzles! The aiming and reloading is botched! You can't reload while aiming down sights anymore which gets you killed in zombies all the time! This is by far one of the worst cod games I've played! Regret purchasing it! But never again

    First COD I have played since MW2 on the Xbox 360, terrible graphics, crap maps. Spawn, see someone shoot - die, spawn get seen without seeing someone - die. Rinse and repeat.

    Wont ever buy a COD game again, don't know what I was thinking. Wouldn't play if this was free to play, let alone paying for a triple A title 0/10

    Awful! Break when I use the touch pad to come out of the stat check mid-team deathmatch.
    Also, NO split screen for couch coop. You can do this for Black Ops3 but not for next gen PS5. Absolute joke as the rest of the gameplay is just a copy and paste.

    This game could have been so much more! It's not as trash as Black Ops 4 and it's not as scummy as Black Ops 3 but Treyarch are sliding downhill fast. It's time to ditch the yearly releases and focus on what is going well for Call of Duty: WARZONE! Traditional Multiplayer is dead, Zombies is hanging by a thread. Incorporate free DLC quarterly with Warzone. MP Maps, Campaign Add Ons, Zombies Maps, just add them to Warzone as ongoing content. The yearly release is slowly killing the franchise.    … Expand

    I completed this **** game in 5h. Anything more to say?

    I bought COD for the campaign. I DO NOT like to play online. After 5h of playing I finished completely the campaign.
    Selling a 60euro game for 5h playing IS A FRAUD.

    I will NEVER buy another COD in my life and NEVER advice any friends to do that.
    I am completely disappointed by the game and the system.

    The Gameplay itself is fun but to start with just 8 maps at the release while Modern Warfare had 20 is not good. I only play the entire time the same 3 maps and it get's boring really fast and i have now around 15 hours of Multiplayer playtime also it took 5 hours for example until i got Moscow into my map rotation and only played it now 5 times in 15 hours. Then the zombies mode...I love zombies but that it's player hostet without server is a big no in 2020 in my opinion. Also when the host has a crash and the game does host migration the entire lobby crashes too in 8 out of 10 times. Just Unacceptable.
    And the problems with crashes also the server performance is so bad that the TTK feels often like MW. And i wouldn't recommend to buy the game at full price to anyone. The Game is unacceptable for 60/80 euro it feels like an early access game. Then the Camos look bad muddy and are just copy pasted from BO2 without optimization. Also the exp to lvl your weapon / grind attachments are so low that it takes forever to get them. And the standard multiplayer Operator need to be unlocked through missions, It's as if they put all that **** grind into the game so that you overlook it's serious lack of content.

    Then the Map visibility is just bad and enemys blend too much into the enviroment often and Cold War itself feels really like i bought a 60 euro Early Game...

    It's so ridiculous i feel ripped off so hard. And when someone comes and thinks "But it just released a few days ago" First of all you are the reason that Activision released that **** You also don't go to your stylist and pays him 50$ and he just cuts 5 strands of hair.

    Like i said i really feel ripped off and i only bought it because i liked the "Beta" (Which in fact was not a **** Beta) and i really really regret buying it.

No se ni por donde empezar, porque hay tantas cosas mal y tantas que llevan mal tanto tiempo que ya me da hasta pereza tener que volver a explicarlas aquí. Pero vamos a intentarlo de forma breve, para que no digan que es otra nota desde el odio. Comenzar diciendo que después de haber jugado al cod desde el año 2003 al 2015 y haberlo abandonado por asco y cansancio, esta entrega me tenía ilusionado, ya que el primer Black Ops es una de mis entregas favoritas.
    En el apartado técnico el juego podría ser mucho mejor, por momentos parece un DLC del Mwf ralentizado y con otras skins, Animaciones regulares, (la del lanzamiento de granadas es para darle un premio o algo) interacción con los escenario prácticamente nula, problemas de rendimientos, problemas de conexión (si, sigue habiendo partidas con gente que te ve un segundo antes aunque tenga 500Mb simétricos en 2020), etc…ya ,tampoco se molestaron ni en imitar los acentos en el doblaje como en otras entregas para ambientar, solo por estos detalles se merece mala nota.
    Si entramos a valorar que es una saga con muchos años de experiencia, cosas como que entrar 12h más tarde a jugar que otras personas me supongan casi no poder jugar y morir continuamente por no tener desbloqueado alguna ventaja y estar todo el rato resaltado en el mapa, muriendo por las rachas, o la desventaja de algún accesorio de arma a estas alturas, es ridículo y frustrante a partes iguales. No me quiero imaginar la gente que está esperando por Ps5 para jugarlo si a esta gente le dejan importar su perfil la que les espera.(Hay cross play con Ps5 y si juegas en una Ps4 juega en desventaja) Pero bueno, estas cosas a muchos no les molestan, si no puedo estar 24h jugando COD en mi casa como los Pros o comprarme un Ps5 aunque quiera porque no las hay, es mi problema, claro.
    El balanceo es incomprensible ya que a mi ayer con nivel 12 me metía en muchas partidas llenas de gente de más de 30 de nivel y cosas así También me da que pensar que si hay cross play entre Ps4 y Ps5, en Ps4 será mejor ni jugar ya. Que encima pongas las rachas por puntos para dinamizar el juego, que me parece muy bien,(es mentira da mas puntos hacer racha de muertes que tomar banderas, por ejemplo) pero se sigan usando mecánicas que en vez animar a jugar en movimiento premian que la gente se quede estática, como el sonido exagerado de los pasos (literalmente parece que van a caballo) y que encima pongas un micro que los amplifica en una zona, es la guinda del pastel. En fin, no me extiendo mas que mi tiempo también vale dinero, una retahíla de cosas, que en menos de 24h, me quitaron la ilusión por jugarlo. Si a todo esto le sumamos que el viernes no, pero ayer sábado ya había gente haciendo trampas. Pues me siento muy defraudado y con la sensación de haber tirado mi dinero. Un saludo    … Expand

    Single player - 3/10
    Multiplayer- 5/10
    Zombies - 7/10

    Single player - The plot and characters are almost as ridiculous as Addler’s sunglasses.
    Multiplayer - More of the same. This hasn’t changed for about thirteen years (except warzone of course).
    Zombies - Hard to get wrong. Blends the best bits of COD zombie gameplay from over the years into a really fun game mode.

    This game honestly just feels like the life and soul of a COD game was ripped out of it. The campaign especially seemed like it would be something of value up until the end of the game when you realize essentially all your hard work put into the campaign and it's challenges were COMPLETELY useless.

    I honestly can't see giving this game anything higher than a 3 out of 10. It's the worst COD game I've played in years. It brings me back to the awful campaign of Call of Duty: Ghosts and Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. This game falls right into that same category. A game that wastes your time, energy, and money as well.

    In my opinion? Stick with the recent Call of Duty: Modern Warfare. It does almost everything well whereas this game, fails at almost everything that game did correctly.    … Expand

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. COD is a write off this year. Save your mental health and steer clear of this pile of **** ass. COD is making their games have no skill gap to appease to smooth brains, and it's not worth it to play it this year.    … Expand

    If I could use a word to describe Black Ops Cold War, I will use "DISASTER". It's absolute downgrade since MW. Campaign is fairly not bad, Zombie mod is fun, but multiplayer... It's a horrible mess! Gunplay is far far far away from being good; and, Yo! Treyarch! We are in 2020, What the heck is this Graphics!!!! at first I thought I dl wrong black ops!

    This is just so bad. The story on the campaign is great, but the general gameplay is awful, seems like a bad mobile game with bad everything.
    Multiplayer modes are hideous, no TDM, no nice maps, and of course, no anti-cheat, because they make millions with these games but cant even invest in a god anti-cheat. The game is full of cheaters and it started in the beta!

    I only bought the game for couch coop... At launch, no offline, after the update, there is none. What a disappointment this is my last cod game. The ttk is a good middle ground and the multiplayer maps are better than the last one. Zombies got updated but now feels too easy and the buildables/Easter egg got simplified.

    Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War ends up mirroring what the Call of Duty franchise offered last year, with some new additions that are also welcome, especially for long-term fans. While being set during a very intense period, the campaign ends up erring for its disappointing longevity, even though the value of repetition is intrinsic to it. Zombies are back in style, while multiplayer gains an excellent new mode, but here it errs again for the arsenal's lack of variety.

    While Cold War is a part of a series I would have said that I loved, I can’t fully embrace it now knowing that this work is trucking in harmful stereotypes via patriotic-tinged gameplay. A decent CoD multiplayer experience will likely emerge from the currently-underwhelming Cold War, but I’m going to seriously consider whether that gameplay is worth enduring (and supporting) the rest.

    There’s a surprising number of changes, and most work. With an enjoyable campaign and a generous amount of online content, Cold War deserves a warm reception. [Issue#183, p.68]
