    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.

    This game is still broken 6 months post launch. They need to get their **** together, stop making overpriced bundles and focus on fixing the damn game. It’s unplayable.

    Otra gran decepción. 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.

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

    Bad servers, bad netcode and full of hackers. Campaign was fine. Keep seeing intrusive ads for this on Modern Warfare which is 100x better than this turd of a game. Ironically has more campers than Modern Warfare especially in Nuketown.

    Horrendous game, published by a fraudulent company. Activision thinks it's perfectly legal to take COD points from your balance and not even care about giving you them back.

    The gunfights are a always coin flip, decided by one of Activision's patents. The game an absolute nightmare to play. It's made to make you feel cheated and depressed. Seriously, stay away from this game, and any

    The world will be a better place the sooner Bobby Kotick dies or Activision goes bankrupt .

    Absolute trash game. Massive step back in the franchise from MW and doesnt deserve to ne called a sequel to the original Black Ops. Original black ops a decade later still is better in every way. This is an outrage, a shambles, an abomination.

    Refund the game to make Blizzard, Activision understand that this isnt on.

    Pressing the Options button freezes the screen in zombie mode and I have had the same problem over and over again. It does not come back from there, it is necessary to turn it off and on. also when you come back you cannot join the same game

    How was CD Project Red pressured into offering refunds on their glitchy but fun game, and Treyarch/Activision haven’t been pressured into refunding this glitchy pos.

    You put in the disc, and it downloads a 20 gig update. AS A WARNING. This does not mean you can play the single player game. because that's NOT on the disc. No you have to download 3 separate campaign parts (13+ gig each) before you can play the game.

    I've been playing video games since jumping jack on the Spectrum ZX and i have never came across such a direct insult to gaming as this, glad i rented it. Because this is the type of BS we can do without.

    I'd talk about the game (when you eventually get to play it; after downloading the entire thing even with the disc) but no. It gets the lowest score because it's such a disgrace to gamers.

    I wouldn't play it if it were free.

    Don't waste your money or your time, this game is garbage. MW was buggy and rife with hackers, but had a few redeeming qualities. BOCW on the other hand is just garbage. Pitiful map pool no launch, terrible hit registration for PC, crazy OP and generally broken aim assist. You'd think after making nearly 20 of these games they'd have figured out

    This game made 10 steps back compared to Modern Warfare. It feels like a 10 year old shooter. The SBMM is ridiculous. The whole game is made for feeding Warzone and get people to buy this just to level the weapons for Warzone. Another way to get our money for the lowest effort possible.

    Worst game i've played so far. Unfinished content, even CoD's that are over 10 years old had more content when the game released. The campaign feels like it was being rushed. Don't get me started at zombies. I have tried 6 times, 6 times the easter egg. Always there was something, a bug, the game just froze i mean like what the **** lol **** this game i spend 100 euros on nothing

    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]
