    Besides the fact that it is a better looking version of CS GO, besides the fact the maps are the worst in a long time....besides it al....none of them matter because as I said before, you are lucky if you can actually play this sh*t.

    I wouldn't recommend this game to anyone and I am happy to say that Battlefield V works just fine every time and I got Battlefield 2042 so there is no need to keep this ussssslessss game on my PC.

    AND i think it doesn't need to be reminded that Cold War is more the 100 GB and if you want to play Warzone you need to install another 206 GB. Two games who should be one that actually are 306 GB and totally not worth.    … Expand

The sbmm felt even stronger than modern warfare, I would struggle with terrible teammates, sweaty enemies, overpowered and unbalanced weapons, horrible maps that promote camping, the enemies are impossible to see, the movement feeling clunky, the score streaks are horrible and can not only be shot down with one clip but also are impossible to get because of how high the scores are to get. And all of this I saw within an hour of playing . Their developers have gone dark and never answer questions or interact with the community, the game took 50% of my storage on my Xbox, the battle pass is a rip off of modern warfare's style, in fact it's combined WITH it, so it's mooching off of another games success. Now as for zombies, the map is fun, enjoyable and is the only reason I have the game still installed, I don't wanna reinstall 250gigs every time I wanna play zombies. My only gripe is the glitches and the fact that there's only one map. One issue that I saw was the worst was it SHUT OFF MY XBOX, no game has ever done that and made me feel like I downloaded some malicious stuff into my Xbox before.To end off with, I'ma say I don't recommend this game to anyone, it feels incomplete, abandoned, and feels like a rip off.… Expand

    Spent about 30 minutes trying to get into a game and it kept throwing me into full lobbies and i kept getting the same error over and over again that the lobby is full. Unplayable garbage.
    Zombies was the only fun thing in that game and got almost instant matchmaking.

The multiplayer servers are ok but the ZOMBIES SERVERS ARE THE LAGGIEST THINGS IN THE WORLD! I will be sitting at good frame rates and then boom everything in the game is 2 fps.

    Only Treyarch is incompetent enough to make a game that doesn't know how capitalize on a better company (Infinity Ward) and still break the game with busted guns like the streetsweeper. Engine is absolutely horrendous and animations look like a high schooler with special needs made it in their free time. Treyarch please do the COD community a favor and never make another title ever again

    Utter rubbish. Activision couldn't care less if you enjoy it as long as they have your money. This game is riddled with bad coding, bad graphics and what isn't bad is just dated and shoddy.
    No feedback from activision or the Devs.
    I have a PS4 pro and the graphics are equivalent to a PS2 on a good day. I will be going STRAIGHT BACK TO BATTLEFIELD after this horrendous piece of garbage

    This is by far one of the worst Games i have bought for 60€.
    it usually cashes for me or one of my friends which makes the game unplayable for me.
    they realsease updates that are 50gp+ big almost every 2 weeks so if you ever decided to play this buggy mess of a game then you usually have to first updated it for at least 1hour.

Game play is ok when you get to play but it ruined by them not letting you skip. This is all campaign that I'm upset about oh and good luck on the loading bc wow does ot suck.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I have a lot to say about this game so let me get straight to the point. Skill based matchmaking made every game for me feel like a chore. Its a constant fight for head glitches and camp spots because no body wants to use the terrible, clunky movement and get insta-killed by the god awfully op weapons. People who are not good at the game choose to sit in one spot and aim down sight which gives them an advantage; however, with these weapons it seems that camping has become the meta, and its boring for the good players who want to actually have a fun, casual experience. During the gameplay, i noticed i had zero time to react when getting shot at and I would just die. This was mostly to campers who would sit and wait at a doorway or corner so by the time you saw them and put your gun up or aim down the sights you are already dead. Not to mention half of the people i play against camp. i only actively see 2-3 people actually playing toward the goal of the game such as domination or hardpoint and that makes it really hard to have fun. Anyways, back to skill based matchmaking, one of the worst things to come to COD ever. In cold war they make it so you verse people you would get a 1.00 KD against. And there is the problem, right there. When I actually have fun playing its when i get a good KD or am playing with friends and winning games. Cold war literally tries to keep your KD down to be “fair to other players”. They stripped the fun from the game to make it more fair. That is honestly the dumbest thing I've heard in all of video games. The point of playing is to have fun and enjoy being good at something but cold war takes this away from its users which is why I rate it the worst cod of all time by far. In addition, the devs rushed this game like no other. The bugs and glitches are everywhere and to some extent makes the game unplayable. Treyarch needs to re-evaluate their purpose (which is to entertain, not scam us all out of 60$) and do better next cod because I will not buy another game with skill based matchmaking and dynamic nerfing that comes with a whole sleuth of bugs and glitches. This game could have been made back in the early 2000s, and it should have been worth 10$. F for effort… Expand

    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]
