    The first Call of Duty game that I played in PS4. The gameplay was ok with a great graphics but the story didn't work out for me.

    Not as good as Black Ops 1 and 2. Story is not very engaging and acting is not as good. Graphics are good and gameplay is alright, but definitely a decline in enjoyability for this one.

    Multiplayer and gameplay is way better than the other futuristic ones and actually pretty good, had a lot of fun getting the prestiges. Story is decent but could be better, still good to have a story mode to play.

    Answer: 75 characters is between 10 words and 19 words with spaces included in the character count. If spaces are not included in the character count, then 75 characters is between 12 words and 25 words.

    another COD I have good memories with but its a pretty standard cod all things considered with the unique characters not really being as unique as you'd think. the maps are pretty good in this one and the zombies mode is pretty cool but overall this is nothing too crazy but not bad.

    I think CoD black op 3 is an okay game. The campaign is vefry confusing and the story is probably the most complicated story in call of duty history. But the gameplay that the campaign has to offer is pretty good and i liked the DNI mechanics. The multiplayer is okay as well and i like the fast paced shooting with wallrunning and all that stuff.

But what i don't like is the skill-based matchmaking and the multiplayer just doesen't feel like pure call of duty magic that the MW trilogy is known for. But i must say that i have really enjoyed the zombies mode. It's just pure fun and the lore is also fairly interesting.
    Overall from the more casual gamer perspective i like the game but from the call of duty fan perspective i don't like it that much.    … Expand

    Maybe not the best but I still think it's underrated. Great game with a lot of twists. The ending was confusing but also pretty good. It's much better then a lot of COD games for me. Definitely underrated as hell.

    I had a really fun time with the campaign that is very underrated in my opinion. They tried to make a good story and they did it.

    Imo Campaing is trash,it's the worst in the Black Ops series.Multiplayer is mediocre,maps are basic and it's pay to win because there are loot boxes that can give you OP weapons.So either yo grind to to get loot boxes and hope you get lucky to get the weapon you want,or you use your moms credit card to buy loot boxes.I also hate the way weapons feel.The only good thing is zombies becauseImo Campaing is trash,it's the worst in the Black Ops series.Multiplayer is mediocre,maps are basic and it's pay to win because there are loot boxes that can give you OP weapons.So either yo grind to to get loot boxes and hope you get lucky to get the weapon you want,or you use your moms credit card to buy loot boxes.I also hate the way weapons feel.The only good thing is zombies because imo it's the best zombies experience ever,first off all you can play many og maps with zombies chronicles,you get all the WaW maps(except for der rise but you can just buy the giant)most bo1 maps except for call of the dead and five,you also get origins.i've would have liked to see more bo2 maps but tbh most bo2 victis maps are trah except for buried,if you play on PC you can mod a lot of maps but this a review for ps4 so you most people will read this are people who play on ps4 and you can't add mods into ps4.If you don't like the OG maps you can just play the maps for bo3 which are vey great,i didn't like zetsubou no shima but it was still fun.Overall i think the game is not very good,the campaign as i said is trah,multiplayer is mediocre imo.The only good thing about this game is zombies,you can get zombies chronicles and bo3 for just 60 which imo is a very good deal,you don't even have to buy the dlc's because the zombies map that already comes with the game shadows of evil is very good,i will give it a 5,if you want a good campaign don't buy it it's trash,if you like multiplayer it's mediocre you are better off just buying cod mw2019and if you like zombies absolutely buy it,it's the best zombies ever.… Expand

    Disclaimer: I am a huge fan of Zombies & I basically exclusively played Zombies on this game. The original zombie map kind of sucked, but the mods were dope as hell and provided a lot of fun.

    One of the best post-golden age COD’s. Still solid to this day. The bad campaign held it back though.

    However, there is also little to say about this game.The plot is small, boring and uninteresting characters, a strange zombie mode, and the game itself is strange according to the plot and the gameplay

    Really good camping although the ending is too long. Few really nice plots but some characters are completely dull. There are also few epic scenes especially in ww2 surreal mison. Overall it was a fresh and nice experience.

    Well this game are good. I like it. About the story and the gameplay are stunning me. But I think COD Black Ops 1 is more better than this one. But overall okay.

    Multiplayer is great. No doubt. The movement is very smooth and the shooting feels very smooth as well. The maps are alright, but they could be better. The weapons are pretty average for a Black Ops game, but there are some unique additions as well (there is a full-auto nail gun!). Multiplayer 8/10.

    Campaign is bad. Not horrible, but bad. The missions feel like im playing through a fever dream from space. The story makes 0 sense and has no connection to Bo1 and Bo2. The voice acting is poor, and it doesn't help that none of the events or things in the story are explained, its like they just expect you to know what is going on. Train go boom. Campaign 2/10.

    Zombies is mediocre. There really isn't much to say about it. It is relatively underwhelming. Also what the heck is it with gobblegums? Zombies 5/10.

    Overall, Call of Duty®: Black Ops 3 is a underwhelming game for Zombies fans, a really bad game for Campaign fans, and a pretty great game for Multiplayer fans. My general rating of Call of Duty®: Black Ops 3 is a 7/10.    … Expand

    Dość ciekawy pomysł na kampanię, jednak bez większego polotu. Boli też fakt oderwania od dziedzictwa serii Black Ops. Multiplayer jest dalej dynamiczny lecz i on szybko się nudzi

    Overall, not a bad game, but not great. The campaign starts off interesting, but gets confusing. The multiplayer is decent, but there's nothing really special about it and most of the maps are poorly designed. The zombies is solid, but again, not the best.

    - Microtransactions
    This is really what brings multiplayer down a bit. If they didn't add Ranged Weapons and sticked to Melee Weapons in supply drops, that would've been fine. Not to mention Zombies has microtransactions (with Liquid Divinium). The two modes have pay-to-win elements. In Multiplayer, it's the ranged weapons (melee weapons are just a reskin of the Combat Knife). In Zombies, it's gobblegum like Perk-a-holic, shopping free, and Power Vacuum.

    -Campaign
    If you are not a story person (kind of like me), this mode is fine. For the people who are, this game is a nightmare. The important plot points are in that super-duper fast scrolling text. This mode would be fine if the story wasn't bad.

    The rest of the game is pretty good.    … Expand

    No es una verga, no es el mejor cod, es decente, lindo graficamente, historia mediocre, divertido, balanceado, variado, aunque el modo via libre es un poco innecesario.

    Underneath the glamour, it feels like just another Call of Duty game - to the delight of existing fans, but the chagrin of players seeking new turf.

    Both the single player and online modes are fun but don’t expect to be blown away. Despite a great story and a couple of very enjoyable missions the campaign as a whole is a tad boring. [13/2015, p.50]

    What we have here is the best Call of Duty single player experience to date. The multiplayer is solid too, though the much-talked re-design has resulted a multiplayer experience that really doesn’t differ all that much from the previous ones. [Nov 2015]
