    There is a good game here and it is destroyed by SBMM. It is an experience that is impossible to enjoy

    Man, these games have gone downhill from an artistic perspective. Technically speaking, it’s incredible, but the story is told with such a ridiculously heavy fist it’s comical. This series is just now the yearly FIFA with guns...

    This is the first time I have written a review, but I felt I needed to for Black Ops Cold War.

    Firstly, the good: - The campaign is good fun, and I like that it has replay value.

    Firstly, the good:
    - The campaign is good fun, and I like that it has replay value. It continues the Cold War-era themes of psychological operations, lies and intrigue.
    - Zombies is also good fun. Having not played any since COD WWII it is definitely better than that game, and I have a number of hours of played time with friends in Cold War zombies.

    On to the bad, of which there is a lot:
    - Multiplayer: Multiplayer is pretty dreadful, and ultimately leaves me logging off frustrated if not downright angry. Skill-based matchmaking is dialled up to 11 in this game; I either do well (with 50% more kills than deaths) or do badly (50% more deaths than kills). There is rarely an in between, and when you are playing well, you can't go on a streak of big scores/ high KD games because the algorithms see to it that you don't. The spawns are DREADFUL. I have had a number of times when I spawn basically in front of the enemy that just killed me, or enemies spawn behind me as I advance a small distance down the map, basically sandwiching you between those in front and those who have just spawned behind.
    The maps are pretty dreadful too: lots of open space and a multitude of angles to be shot from. This deliberately adds in a large random element, which is by design, not accident.
    - Zombies: Although I have praised it above, it needs more content. One major map (Die Maschine) and that is it. The other modes are a quick bit of fun, but quickly repetitive, and are just based off of multiplayer maps.
    - Graphics: These look like a game from 10 years ago. Lots of low resolution stuff throughout the game. The graphics in the Fire Team mode are woeful, and perhaps most clearly demonstrate how dated this game looks. Characters also have hilarious animations when climbing ladders, with their hands and legs going out at 90 degrees to their torsos and climbing using the very edges of the rungs. It looks like an animation from a 90's game.
    - Gameplay: The movement of operators feels erratic and not smooth, particularly when aiming at them. Going back to Fire Team again, the bad gameplay is perhaps most obvious in this mode: people parachuting in on top of you repeatedly after you have killed them; DMRs beaming you from a mile away; and randomly spawning killstreaks that dominate. Again, luck seems to play a big part in who does well in this game mode, not so much skill. The classic COD head glitching is still very much present in this game.

    Ultimately I buy into the cynicism - I think a lot of the things in the game (map design, SBMM etc.) are done to make it more attractive to casual players and give them a 'fighting chance.' What it ultimately does is hollow out the game for anyone who plays it regularly (not even at a high level, just plays it most days). These players are rewarded with ridiculous deaths in an effort to inject randomness into the game, and progressively harder lobbies for their efforts.

    This is one of the few games where I log off angry or frustrated after a session, rather than having had a good time (with the exception of Zombies with friends). Activision and their subsidiaries need to get back to producing a game that is fun - rigid skill-based matchmaking, bad gameplay, and horrible maps make this game a horror show at times.    … Expand

    The worst Call of Duty I have ever played.

It wouldn’t be too bad if there was some competition for the guns, but there isn’t any variety when it comes to gun selection. It would be okay if there was something to aim for, with skins, attachments and challenges, however this felt so empty I left me not wanting to even look at what I had to do. The Operators are awful, they look awful, there’s no variety, no feeling of “that looks cool I’ll work towards it” and no real effort put into the quality of them at all. Graphically it feels like we’ve gone back years, and okay wise it’s hands down the worst Call of Duty ever. There’s no memorable or enjoyable maps, no good guns, nothing that stands out about this game, other than it just a sweaty, unsuitable waste of money. It’s okay though because they couldn’t mess up Warzone with this last version of unbalanced guns could they... Astros Playroom was a more enjoyable, well built experience than this money grabbing churned out trash of a game.… Expand

Its a Shame for a AAA Company. Its only milking People with an old great Name. And to say something about Sbmm: Its in the Game and its very strict. You get only Players with your skills to play. For me, thats not a huge Problem. But its not enjoyable, when the Game is soo broken! Aim Assist dont works, the Hitboxes dont work how it should. And things like that should NEVER happen in a Game that matches you with people same skill. Ghuess what happens when a Friend join your session, that isnt as good as you... We get Enemies that are the average between him and me. So i feel like playing againist bots and he gets only better players. He cant enjoy it. And the Ping... it feels like you play againist people on mars! = Bad Servers.
    But to say something good about this game: Its beautiful made. Most of the Maps are pretty good. The Sounds are good like the Multyplayer Menu Music from Bo1. The Battle Royale i never Played, because it was not in the Game. Now it is. The Zombie Mode is really good, but the game will crash somethimes the Console, what is very frustrating in Zombies. At the End, i deinstalled the Game after 2 Weeks. Not because of hate or something. The Multiplayer (the Reason i buy Cod) is not enjoyable. Completely not. They never should have bring this game out in this state. Its like a unfinished beta and we pay full price for beta testing and treyarch maybe will fix this game. Maybe not. And its very sad to see this great Franchise getting that worse. I play it since MW2. My personal Favorite was BO1 and the last very good Cod was BO3 in my eyes. Its sad. Cold war has the potential to be one of the greatest cods. But not in this current state.    … Expand

    The multiplayer is the worst, noob, camper friendly experience i've ever lived in Cod history. Fix the broken spawns, movement, stutter, bugs, make it skill based (matchmaking is the worst; matching you based on previous match performance and does not let you improve) and then we might have something to talk about. jesus i really regret the 40 euros (yes i regret the discount) i spent.

    Overall good game but the Skill Based Matchmaking makes the game honestly unplayable. I don’t want to compete and sweat every single match. The spawn areas are also broken; I spawn in where not even 2 steps later, without even able to shoot, die. It’s not enjoyable or fun. Until they fix the spawn areas and remove Skill Based Matchmaking I’m giving it a 2/10.

    With 40 bucks I'm actually having a lot of fun with all game modes. The terrible part is the SBMM system. It's beyond control since it literally lags you spontaneously in game when the system is trying to balance you while facing an enemy who's underdog to you. This is **** up. But other than that, it's great.

    Due to the skill based matchmaking the online multiplayer is almost unplayable. It's impossible to play easy rounds and just chill - always a sweat with players, who are better than you. The graphics aren't that good and the ps4 pro can't load the textures fast enough so there's a massive pop-in effect of objects (poorly optimised to the hardware) These games get worse from year to year.

    SBMM that may be one of the worst in a game ive ever seen.
    Multiplayer is catered to 'casuals' by including a scoring system that rewards players for trying to get high kill streaks instead of playing objective. Free scorestreaks for everyone by halftime even if you dont really deserve it.    At least they communicate a little with their community. Otherwise what a train wreck of a game.

    campaign in my opinion. The multiplayer is good( i don't have a clue of what hackers and sbmm are players talking about) and the zombies. All the complains i have heard about are not real.... I don't know. I fell like some of the reviews are total bullsh*t, I am sorry to say that.

    The focus mode on the snipers, how It doesn't have a time limit is awesome and yall should keep that up. It is definitely hands down the best cod I've played. You won't regret buying it. People complaining saying this game sucks, you'll always have those cry baby people with the need to complain. no matter what. Definitely worth the price. Very fun

    Gráficos: 8.5/10 - Gráficos ótimos, especialmente no que tange aos ambientes de jogo.

    Jogabilidade: 9.0/10 - Excelente jogabilidade, com boa fluide, ótima variedade de armas, sendo a precisão e realismo dos combates quesitos que eu vejo como bastante positivos. O mesmo vale para o controle de veículos do jogo.

    História: 9.0/10: A história é excelente, ao meu ver. Retrata um dos períodos mais importantes do século XX, que é a Guerra Fria, onde fica claro que os vilões são os comunistas (que de fato são), mas os americanos estão longe de serem santos (não são mesmo). Ela é bastante imersiva e suas decisões e missões secundárias interferem inclusive no desfecho do jogo, que possui diferentes (e surpreendentes e excelentes finais). Não dou 10 porque o modo Single Player é mais curto do que eu acho que poderia ser. Mas nada que comprometa de fato a história. Sem mais detalhes para não dar spoiler.

    Personagens: 9,5/10 - Os personagens do jogo são incríveis, alguns deles inclusive reais (como Ronald Reagan e Mikhail Gorbachev) únicos em suas características e, mesmo os secundários, tem relevância na história. Os protagonistas são muito bem desenvolvidos e a história do personagem que vc controla, praticamente o jogo todo, é simplesmente de cair o queixo.

    Diversão: 9.0/10 - A diversão maior fica por conta do modo Zombie (Multiplayer) que é bem produzido, contendo inclusive uma história excelente, baseada em partes em fatos reais (como a iminente ameaça de uma guerra nuclear apocalíptica entre EUA e URSS), onde suas decisões interferem diretamente no desfecho do jogo; além de plot twists, como todo grande jogo deve ter; personagens muito bem desenvolvidos (especialmente o protagonista que vc joga), sendo alguns deles reais; gráficos de alta qualidade e diversão garantida pra quem curte um grande jogo action/shooter, especialmente no modo Zombies. Pra mim, é um jogo que entrará para a história pela forma incrível que ele retrata um marco da História: a Guerra Fria.

    Nota Final: 9.0/10 - O jogo faz jus ao status de uma das maiores franquias de todos os tempos que é o COD, com uma história excelente, com direito a plot twists, como todo grande jogo deve ter e finais diferentes, de acordo com as decisões e missões que vc conclui; personagens muito bem desenvolvidos (especialmente o protagonista que vc joga), sendo alguns deles reais; gráficos de alta qualidade e diversão garantida, especialmente no modo Zombies (Multiplayer). Enfim, pra mim, esse jogo ficará marcada como um Masterpiece dos games, pelo conjunto da obra e qualidade na forma que ele aborda um dos assuntos mais importantes da história recente: a Guerra Fria.    … Expand

    Just by the name you would think this is going to be sweet. This however, is not the case for this game at all. The game looks and feels like a Counter strike port with mildly better textures. The character models are meh at best and the weapon models are just as bland. The game feels and plays like garbage.

Activision once again proves they are incapable of creating fair MP games as of late. Health is also supposedly been buffed compared to MW2019, but they also buffed the damage on base weapons. So you just can’t run away unless you are facing somebody who is getting punished by the game with the unfair damage part I mentioned earlier.

Most maps color schemes and lighting are so bad everyone blends in allowing corner camping pricks to rack up undeserving kills. And yet again we’ve got even more head glitches in this game. God I miss the old days when it was a straight up gunfight, best aim wins. Now it’s whoever has better head glitch and holds angles better. How to fix the game: Scrap it, refund everyone and say we’ll try again next year. But seriously: Lower time to kill by 15% Lower player speed by 15% Make better maps (cough cough mw2 esque)
    Fix weapon xp leveling Better attachments namely sights for guns Get rid of or at least lower volume significantly on the annoying and honestly childish grunt noises characters make when climbing or mantling objects

I absolutely do not plan on buying Cold War because to me, it seems like its just another mediocre entry in the series. There is nothing special about it where as MW was very finely tuned and polished to be a genuinely good game. COD has turned into the Madden of shooters in that they release a new game every year with very little improvement or innovation. It has just become a cash cow for the company, which is a shame seeing as how MW proves that COD can still be a great franchise if they just put effort into making it be one. However, Activision would rather put out their cookie cutter, copy and paste versions of COD out every year just for the sake of being greedy. Everything about Cold War just seems so bland and is just the same old stuff we've seen every year for the past 10 years.… Expand

    Campaign: 4/10 I have never been a fan of CoD campaigns but this one was better than most. Still not great. I only give it a 5/10 because of how short it was. Normally I don't give a lower score for a shorter story in games, but for the price, I think it's justified.

    Zombies: 5/10 An interstring changeup from the past games. I am not a fan of it, but I am glad they decided to try something new from the regular formula (which is why I'm giving it a 6/10).

    Multiplayer: 2/10 By far the worst mode in the game. A large step back from last year's release, and lacks content overall. Very few weapons, very few maps, and lots of removed mechanics. On top of that, it's going for a more arcade feel, but it feels like they didn't fully commit. it just falls flat.

    Overall, the game is ok, not really fun, but not really bad either. The main issue is the price; it is really not worth the full price for what you get. Who really knows what happened in development when making this game, so I don't want to blame anyone. My recommendation is to just keep playing MW and wait for the next release.

    Not as fun as Modern Warfare 2019, in terms of multiplayer, but this campaign was definitely more interesting and fun.

    *THIS IS A MULTIPLAYER ONLY REVIEW*

    If you're planning to buy Cold War for the multiplayer, don't bother. The Meta consists of Two Guns (AUG and M16), Snipers are the weakest they've ever been and the SBMM is so intense that after doing good for one game, you're better off just getting of the game unless you want to be destroyed for the next 5-10.

    This is by far the worst game I've purchased in years, as it is laggy, has many bugs, has mic problems, and it's graphical quality is extremely low. I would avoid this game and buy anything, and I mean anything else. If you're looking for a cross platform multiplayer like I was then go with Modern Warfare, it isn't great itself, but it blows this utter piece of trash out of the water.

    I liked the campaign a lot the multiplayer is decent when it actually works and zombies is meh. Only reason it is a 8 is because of how much fun the campaign was for me.

    I am not playing this piece of trash even for free...Lol took a look at it using the free MP week, and it looks and plays like CoD mobile if you compare it against MW 2019...

    The voice of the narrator that says stuff like enemy cruise missile incoming etc. Sounds like the voice from Google Maps...

    The whole game is really bad...At least the multiplayer mode. Even the movement of the character feels clunky and slow...    … Expand

    Feels more copy-pasted than usual. Really bad CoD game, and that's coming from someone who buys every single Call of Duty game.

    I've been playing call of Duty since the beginning and this is by far the worst one I have played. I feel scammed out of $60. Only positive is zombies and that is boring quick. Huge disappointment and this will be the last chance I give Call of duty. Absolutely ridiculous.

    Sbmm ruined the game. No content at launch and the new season looks bare as well. Short campaign. Bad multiplayer maps. 1 zombies map at launch. Really disappointing considering Treyarch has always made the best cod games imo.

    Absolute garbage game, bought it in sale to give it a decent chance. Tried it for 2,5 hour. Movement sucks, time to kill is bad. Compared to modern warfare/warzone they completely dropped the ball. One more year of modern warfare for me. Don’t waste your money please.

    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.

    I would give a 0 but zombies is actually fun but since theres only one map it gets a 3.

    You can definitely tell this game had a rough development.

    Hopefully they fix and add more stuff very soon.

    Not worth full price.

    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]
