    I personally enjoyed the game quite a lot. With this being said I also had a lot of issues with this game. Some of these were the maps aren’t the best, aren’t enough guns, killstreaks aren’t great, and the loot boxes are my biggest complaint. I overall enjoy the multiplayer and campaign even with all the criticisms.

    I bought this game from a second hand store like every other game for like 15€-10€ and it was worth it in my opinion: decent storyline (not that good but still), nice mechanics and other things though this game can get very annoying at times.

    Very good game. The campaign is awesome and the multiplayer as fun and addicting as ever. The only issue I have so far are all the server issues the launch has had. They are quite bad, but besides that the game is super fun! I recommend it.

    This game checks so many boxes. If you like COD for the full-bore arcade action this will not disappoint. So happy Activision released something strong, simple, and on point.
    No bull - just a straight up quality close quarters FPS with ample grime and gore for the console gamer in mind with all three Career, Multiplayer and Zombies being rich and rewarding. Feels like tons of replay value

    Campaign only review: THE BEST COD SO FAR.
    Return to past was a great move. In this interactive feel train movie I had so many awesome moments. I am more Black ops or Modern Warfare type of a gamer, but this World War II theme was processed amazingly.

    Campaign - It's probably one of the best Call of Duty Campaigns up to date. Lots of fun, challenging depending on the difficulty, and more. However I feel like the campaign is a little short, you can complete it within 5 hours, but it doesn't matter, as long as I'm having a good time, I have nothing to complain about.

    Multiplayer - Now I will agree that this is probably one of the worst launch for any Call of Duty title, however Sledgehammer is continuing to fix it and multiplayer is now playable. I don't like the fact that you lose some XP or you get the correct amount, I hope they fix that sometime soon. Besides all that, boots on the ground made MP better than the last few CoDs. People are saying that "It's a reskin from the past few CoDs" or "They just copied WAW or BF1", now I will have to highly disagree with this statement, didn't everyone want Boots on the Ground Call of Duty back? Why are they complaining now, by the end of the day they just end up playing it no matter what. MP playing with friends or by yourself is still fun.

    Zombies - This mode has been in the last few CoDs, starting with WAW, BO1, BO2, AW, BO3, IW, and now WW2. Now this zombies mode doesn't beat Treyach Zombies, theirs will always be my favorite out of all of the CoDs. However zombies is still fun, especially with friends. Sledgehammer did a good job with the map (The Final Reich), zombies can come out of no where and they actually look terrifying, yet they can even scare you at times. I wish there were more maps to play on but I guess we will just have to wait for more DLC.

    Micro Transactions - Micro-transactions has been in almost every multiplayer game, Overwatch, Rainbow 6 Siege, Battlefront 2, and more. It's not surprising that Call of Duty: WW2 has micro-transactions, however I see no point of complaining about micro-transactions and here's why. You don't need it. They're just cosmetics for you to wear or use on your guns, and you don't need DLC weapons to be good in a game. To be good in a game, you must be skillful, yes I understand that some CoD players might just sit in corners just to wait for you but here's a solution, throw a grenade to get them out of there. even if they have a DLC weapon or not, they will lose most likely. It's not like Star Wars Battlefront 2 where you get a hero and you become more powerful. Plus people feel the need to get it and the only way to get it is to buy it.... well here's where they're wrong, you don't need to buy items in a game to be good, most likely Sledgehammer is gonna make it so you can spend your Armory Credits on collections to get a DLC weapon and they're not that hard to get. You can complete contracts that will grant you a free supply drop or armory credits or you can be lucky and get a free Rare Supply Drop by the end of the game. So stop complaining, you don't NEED to buy them.

    Issues -
    Maps are tiny (Not that bad though)
    Some guns are weak (like the Shotguns or some SMGs)
    Not enough maps (Only about 9 playable maps, 3 War Maps)
    XP not working correctly
    Disconnected by the end of the game
    Party not working correctly (Sometimes it will kick you out or you will see a black screen until the next game starts)

    Other than that I gave CoD WW2 a 8/10, not a great launch but it is a great game, boot on the ground is back, fun game, I would give it a try.

    This is a genuinely objective review: CoD WWII is really quite good.

    The last CoD I played was Black Ops 3, and I thought that iteration was acceptable. The last truly great Call of Duty I've played was Modern Warfare 3. After half a decade of the wallrunning, exosuit-toting madness, I was really not holding out hope for WWII to be anything other than a bland money grab. Of course,
    This is a genuinely objective review: CoD WWII is really quite good.

    The last CoD I played was Black Ops 3, and I thought that iteration was acceptable. The last truly great Call of Duty I've played was Modern Warfare 3. After half a decade of the wallrunning, exosuit-toting madness, I was really not holding out hope for WWII to be anything other than a bland money grab. Of course, being a giant moron, I pre-ordered it at 11:45 on the night of launch rather than go for broke on Wolfenstein 2. I spent the 15 minutes before actual launch wondering who had drugged my dinner to make me do such a thing. And then I played it.

    Barring the launch night issues connecting to multiplayer servers, the game is a beautiful and sincere addition to the franchise. The campaign is, in its purest essence, Saving Private Ryan without the Private Ryan. It even opens with the landing at Normandy, and from there blossoms into a not so imaginative, but hellishly fun shooter. I'm on the third or fourth level at this point, and I'm eager to play the rest: It sounds amazing (Sledghammer took notes from the original Star Wars: Battlefront reboot) and it looks just as great. The audio and visuals have never been better in CoD. Character design is pretty standard for the FPS genre, but the connection and relationships between characters is still suitable to make the campaign enjoyable, rather than a chore.

    Multiplayer is quite refreshing in that it gets straight back to what once made Call of Duty the must-own in FPS land: Raw, skill-based arcade shooting, with a delicious array of weapon attachments, cosmetic upgrades, and skill perks to unlock which revolve around a new and intriguing "Division" system. This isn't in line with the usual CoD title, where ten or so custom classes are yours to outfit. Instead, it gives you that option with the ability to truly maximize a given class's skillset: If you play as the "Mountainous" (Sniper) Division, you will see added rewards for keeping your sniper equipped rather than toting an SMG in your ghillie suit. The Divisional loadouts give reason to diversify your classes, rather than set up five different iterations of the same OP rifle or other that typically plague CoD installments. How many of us used anything other than an ACR combo in the old days? Now, you're incentivized to branch out with your custom classes in order to maximize your killing potential. Lastly, the new War mode is really compelling: It can be difficult at times given some spawn and location advantages for defenders/attackers depending on map, but a really neat mode that I look forward to them expanding upon. New maps and variants should make War a great staple mode, particularly for those who like campaigns and don't traditionally favor online multiplayer.

    Zombies, too, has met a drastic and much-needed upgrade. BLOPS3 zombies at launch, frankly, sucked. It was too hard to progress, too unclear in its rules, and ultimately if you didn't matchmake with someone who knew what they were doing, it was far too difficult to last beyond the initial waves, no matter how fun Jeff Goldblum is to play with. With a refreshing return to actual zombies and shambling mutants that are - above all else - enjoyable to kill and fight, I was really pleased with the experience. So far I've gotten a few 1.5-2 hour long runs under my belt, although I have yet to meet the "big boss" I've heard about waiting at the finish. That dang zeppelin gets me every time. From the ground up, the zombies mode is creepier and more intricate in its campaign mission and overall tone: It feels more cohesive than any mode before, including my beloved Tranzit from the BLOPS2 days. Guns feel good in zombies mode, and everything but the starting pistol packs enough punch to at least feel useful in some scenario or other. The added quest markers and objective notes make it that much more user-friendly to get to the bottom of the campaign and make tangible progress, which is both friendly to noobs and dismissable entirely for those who want to try their hand at exploring with no direction. The lore is at least suitably engaging, and on the whole it's a treat to play, with friends or online.

    The ultimate bads:

    Campaign: Derivative: doesn't do much that's new for WWII, but brings a nice exposure to the conflict to a younger audience that doesn't remember Finest Hour or Medal of Honor the way I do. Characters are well-worn tropes that could use some inspiration.

    Multiplayer: not very friendly to newbies. At this point, if you're not well-versed in CoD and FPS shooters generally, you're going to get killed a lot and that's going to really frustrate you. But the modes are just diverse enough to stay interesting. Guns are fun to use and sound great, but really there are only a handful that you see time and time again. The community knows the STG-44 is it.

    Zombies: Needs a non-campaign mode.

    Verdict: Dang good. 8/10.

    In fairness, the game maps are incredible although I wanted at least 2-3 more. The graphics are amazing. The story is pretty fun so far although not my favorite of the 3 modes. Zombies is actually gorey and dark finally with some amazing multiplayer fun to be had. But most of all the multiplayer is amazing. The servers had their ups and downs at launch so little 9 year old billy finds the need to lose his Hi C over it. but even with unstable servers so far the HQ is amazing, the camos aren't tasteless, it actually has better multiplayer achievements and gives you a sense of reward for good matches. Random supply drops ect... it needs more with updates added. More camos, more outfits and more calling cards. But all and all the game is legendary. Enjoy. :)

It showed the war without embellishment, real, brutal war. We have forgotten what it is. We used fun to kill enemies in video games without hesitation. After CALL OF DUTY: WWII start to appreciate the peaceful times in which we live.

    The story tells the usual story of a military soldier. Together with brothers in arms wades through a real hell. We've seen similar stories in games, the war has not been shown so realistically. Basically, this effect causes dismemberment. Very often we will see people without body parts, burning people and the atrocities of the Nazis.

    The plot is simple, but you believe in this war, believe what is happening on the screen. All the characters have their own character, everyone has their demons. It is interesting to observe the drama of the characters.

    The gameplay is now in spirit first every part OF CALL OF DUTY. Because of this the gameplay has become more boring. You sit behind cover and aims at enemies. Diversity is not. But there is one good innovation. The developers decided to implement in a single company element of teamwork. If we need supplies, first aid kit or swegene about the enemy - we are asking comrades. This is an interesting thing. and Yes, now health itself is not restored - it is necessary to look for kits. Here you don't feel like a super soldier ready to kill everyone, you could die at any moment.

    Call of Duty: WWII is a game about realistic warfare. A single company is not very long, but no time to get bored. It's not the best Call of Duty, gameplay and artistic design can to lose IW, but nevertheless it was nice to return to the battlefields of WWII.

    Best Call of Duty I ever played.

    The game is very gun-skill based, unlike the previous versions. It rewards the player with better aim on close quarters gunfights. If you don´t have reflexes or good aim you will not kill your enemy. And that is how a shooter should be, just like Quake.

    Most of the users hating on the game, are just doing it because they are either bad players or they hate cod overall and like to contribute for a low score user rating.

    The numbers don´t lie, this is the best selling CoD ever on launch already, on console, and the most played CoD on PC ever. There is a reason for that. The game is good, skilled. If you´re not good at it, you will not like it. You can go back to casual and slow Battlefield or Pubg for a different experience.

And re: multiplayer...well, this is the first COD whereby I have loved the multiplayer from the get-go. The guns FEEL like real guns...not like Andy-Pandy futuristic pea-shooters. And the maps feel epic from the word go. Honestly? I could not be more impressed with this game thus far. Love it. Expand

The characters, they have charisma and you really get to care about them, having importance in the story and in the gameplay, helping you with supplies and techniques. You will have differnt types of gameplay, controlling a tank or a plane for example, giving a little of variety to the gameplay. Generally isn't that original or anything, but still pretty fun.
    Multiplayer: The multiplayer isn't the best of the franchise, but it's pretty fun. They added some modes that really are worth to talk about, the mode War, it consists in one team trying do advance and complete one objective per time, and the other trying to stop it, this mode really explore the map and how you can use the map in favor or against you, it really reminded me from Rush in Battlefield 3, the mode Pop Hunt that is based on things that already existed but is soo much fun, i enjoyed that one very much, it consist in one team becoming and object and hiding, during the other is trying to find those, playing that with friends are a sure fun moment. The variety of weapons considerable, hand to hand and shooting weapons.
    Zombies: This mode in this game really made me had a lot of fun, the zombies here aren't completely new but have some good and interesting inovation, the prologue passes in a small house and you can work around that and keep going on wave to wave, very fun to do it so. The Final Reich worked very well to me, a i did enjoyed how the map was constructed and how it worked out, the amount of enemies is ok, not very much. What i really liked it, are the easter eggs, it took time and aren't that easy to do, if you can get together some friends to do them, you will definely have some hours of fun and struggling.
    This Call of Duty is the first one that i played since BO2, so i wasn't bored or even knowing what was going on on the franchise very much, so it possibly counted to this review.

I think the reason why this game has a low user score is because most gamers today are too critical to the point where even a very tiny mistake or not meeting their expectations , the game is trash for them. If you're just a casual gamer who are into war/action games, looking for fun and missing the classic COD experience, i highly recommend this for you. For me, COD WWII is worth my money. Expand

If you want to rant about companies taking your money, go to battlefront 2. Now for the review. Campaign was awesome, Multiplayer was nice, and despite what others are saying about sniping, it can be done, it just requires skill lmao. shotguns actually work in this game, and aren't just filler weapons. Their range is perfect. I just wish that enemy health bars are displayed, like in infinite warfare. People complain about how the guns are just reskins, but what the hell were you expecting? You cant just make fictional weapons and call it WW2. TL;DR: Stop hating on this game, its great. MAKE MORE OF THESE GAMES SLEDGEHAMMER!

    If you're a big Call of Duty fan like me, who has played since the early releases, then the chances are you have also been fed up with over-the-top futuristic additions in recent releases.

Its a breath of fresh air and everything you've wantedIf you're a big Call of Duty fan like me, who has played since the early releases, then the chances are you have also been fed up with over-the-top futuristic additions in recent releases. WW2 removes all of this and takes it straight back to its roots - action that is more focused on gunplay, with an incredibly cinematic campaign. Its a breath of fresh air and everything you've wanted Call of Duty to be for a while.

    I will not compare to other games (e.g. Battlefield), because they are different games, each fantastic in their own way. I personally prefer Call of Duty for fast-paced action, and WW2 is no different in that regard. Multiplayer matches kick in to sixth gear from the get-go, in beautifully crafted environments that will sometimes make you stop and appreciate the design work that has gone in.

    The usual formula that all prior games use is still here, so don't expect a massive change. There are micro-transactions available to purchase, but these are in no way vital to the experience, as WW2 is more about how well you can shoot than how well you can unlock. Most unlockables are aesthetic, so they will not make or break your ability.

    Zombies mode feels incredibly familiar, as there are few new additions to this mode. It does begin to feel like a chore, and there isn't huge replayability in it. The included map is huge, although it would be great if we were given more zombies maps to choose from - even something simple like the survival maps from BO2 (town and farm). That being said it is still a lot of fun, and why change a winning formula?

    Many reviews on Metacritic seem very biased and thats because everybody has preferences. If you have been with the franchise for a long time like me, you most certainly won't be disappointed - this is the COD you've been waiting for for a long time.

    Rating the three categories:
    Campaign - 10/10
    Multiplayer - 10/10
    Zombies - 8/10

    Overall: 10/10

The gunplay is great, the journey (story) and pacing/variety in the campaign is amazing. The characters are believable and likeable and for some reason the graphics in the campaign is amazing, whilst the multiplayer looks last gen. I like how we switched between characters (kinda like gta 5) depending on the circumstances; and the surprise and smile on my face when we got to fight in the skies was great. It also has amazing blockbuster driving sequences and explosive sequences that are really fresh and jaw-dropping. I can't like and recommend this campaign enough. Fun diverse gameplay, captivating journey, amazing cutscenes; campaign is definately a 9/10. Now the multiplayer is serviceable but it's only serviceable because they slapped a COD on it. Maps are a **** which promotes camping, 80% of it's map are too small and feel like mazes. The divisions are a disappointment and takes away player freedom. Guns feel/look/ sound too similar too each other. Typical COD playlist. Positives on multiplayer: will be dominated by veterans, more tactical and not as much run and gun, is satisfying when you're on a killstreak. Multiplayer was ok for me and is a generous 6/10. In a nutshell I want to say buy/rent (if you want) for the campaign and treat the serviceable mp as a treat. However if you're buying COD just for multiplayer I would advise skip it, (well it depends what type of gamer you are, definitely skip if you want 100 hours into mp type of game, as I feel this MP will grow stale quick.)

I waited for a 1v1 match for 3 whole minutes and I was the only one in the queue the whole time. however, the multiplayer is damn awesome, I love the map designs, really fun and easy to move around in and the designs are actually really cool. cod should probably change their engine in the next coming years since graphics are starting to look dated, it's far from bad but we can see better from AAA games. it's kinda hard to understand how the whole hub area works, I have no idea how supply drops work even after 15 hours of gameplay, I just somehow get them from time to time. I also don't know how to get armory credits, like at all, the whole thing with the quartermaster is hard to understand. I guess I'll have to figure it out as I go along. the weirdest thing to me is that no one is in the hub world, I mean it takes literally no time to get a match but it's no man's land in the hub world. so far the game is 8 but it could be a 9 when I understand how everything works, it's so hard to figure out these things, right now but just playing this game is a joy, I really like these map designs even though the template is pretty much the same.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I enjoyed this game, especially in the context of the underwhelming COD games of the past few years. I have so far only played the single-player, although I have watched videos of people playing the MP and it looks fun- but I'll restrict my comments to the campaign.
    First off, the campaign is largely back to basics and this, for me, is a good thing. Gimmicks like missions spent driving a tank or a plane are there, but kept to a minimum. In the main, missions are you and your platoon engaging in advancing towards and objective through waves of enemies with a few enjoyable stealth segments in the mix. This is what I want from a FPS game. I just want an enjoyable combat experience, no gimmicks, no clunky vehicle missions, just fun FPS action- and, in the main this is what COD WWII delivers. (Although there are still annoyingly clunky vehicle sections (but short ones at least)).

    The story of the game was also quite enjoyable for me. I liked the characters, the weren't as 1 dimensional as other COD characters have been, I actually cared whether Zussman survives or not. Indeed the fact that your platoon members all have tangible roles and utility (i.e. one can give you health packs, another one gives ammo, another spots enemies) made it for once feel like in a FPS game I'm not winning the war all on my own.

    I also thought that the graphics of the game were better than previous COD games, which I felt had produced largely 'same-old, same-old' graphics. This game looked more detailed and vibrant, for a change- although it could be argued that COD still lags behind other FPS games in this regard.

    Turning to negatives, going back to my earlier point- there are still clunky gimmick missions- for example the driving the tank section where you're expected to drive a tank in FP perspective, whilst operating the gun and not getting stuck. The problem is that the vehicle controls are always clunky in games not centred around vehicles, thus sections spent flying planes or driving tanks just end up feeling frustrating and gimmicky. The mission where you deliver the briefcase, although arguably gimmicky as well, involved stealth elements which I found quite enjoyable in this game. Thus it was mainly the driving missions which irked me.

    In this game sledgehammer have changed melee hits. In previous COD games (as far as I can recall) melee hits are one hit knife kills. In this game this is only true of stealth melee kills from behind, when you rush an enemy and melee attack you hit them with the butt of your gun, this only stuns enemies at full health. As someone who enjoys classic COD games, I personally want a game that stays true to the basic mechanics of those games. What made this COD enjoyable for me was that it was more similar to classic COD in some ways (i.e. returning to BOTG). However, changing the melee kills, and also removing health regen from campaign seemed pointless- if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

    I also found that there were some glitches in the campaign, particularly I found that heroic actions, where you drag a wounded teammate back to cover would often not resolve themselves when I got the person to the cover spot. By that I mean my character would not set the wounded teammate down when I got to the spot I was meant to get them to. Also I found that sometimes I would be desperately trying to get off of a turret and my character would not do so not matter what I did.

    Finally, if you are going to include gimmicky driving missions, try to make the controls not absolutely unbearably clunky.

    Overall, I enjoyed this game (the single-player, at least). It returned to a more classic COD formula- with missions that were standard COD-type missions, nothing crazily innovate but highly enjoyable for me. The world and characters were immersive, the story kept me relatively engaged, with only a few glitches and gimmicks putting a damper on an fun experience. I will almost certainly play this campaign again. In summary, if you enjoyed the campaigns of the previous BOTG COD games, then I'd say you'll enjoy this one. As for the MP, you'll have to read other reviews, because as I said at the start of this review I haven't played it yet.

    SMH!!! People coming in here to give a bad review just because they suck at the game. People, the game is way better in all aspects than any previous COD game. Is it perfect?? No, it is not perfect. It still has many areas where it needs improvements. But it is way better and way more fun than any other COD. Don't listen to all the exo suit fanboys coming in here to give bad reviews.

I gave up playing that mid year, although the DLC was really good I must say, they were redeeming themselves a bit. All this ****ing about microtransactions, yet it's exactly like Modern Warfare Remastered, everything can be unlocked through grinding...plus CoD points aren't even available to buy yet you lying butthurt virgins. Hating a game because it has been something it always has been is like hating God Of War because it has QTE. Just don't buy it and play it if you're no good at it instead of trolling Metacritic with your pimply arsed, Lil' Jimmy noob reviews. Game is what the hardcore fans wanted...BOOTS ON THE GROUND and not this bunny hopping, zero quick scoping catastrophe that has become of it lately. This is just straight up fun, nice maps to flank on, awesome zombies mode and refreshing campaign. Haters are gonna hate, players are gonna play...what do you want to be? Expand

    Honest Opinions:
    I've never played a Call of Duty game for months though this game delighted me. Call Of Duty WWII is a diverse Call of duty game. The game is an amazing with good gameplay, a great story, and a horrifying zombie mode.
    The singleplayer was great with memorable characters and missions. Call Of Duty leads you towards the action and makes you feel more like a real soldier.

    The singleplayer was great with memorable characters and missions. Call Of Duty leads you towards the action and makes you feel more like a real soldier. Enemy A.I has "EXTREMELY" improved with its actions. Friendly A.I react very realistically to their movement. The problems with the singleplayer are, that when characters talk, the characters don't even look like they are talking, and plus the beginning of the campaign felt like you were more than special but after the first quarter, you start to feel like a real soldier.

    Multiplayer is "Astonishing" with its well-paced gameplay and great animations. Call Of Duty WWII supplies you with weapons used in the 1st and 2nd World War. When I first played this, I had a big smile on my face because of how fun the gameplay was. But there is a big fall down with the multiplayer and it is the map design. Though some maps were great, in Call Of Duty WWII's map design, it felt like you knew where to go.

    Zombies was a disappointment but I didn't say it was bad. Zombies put you in a great stance if you want to get scared. The experience was great but I didn't play too much of it.

    Let's be clear. People giving this game below a 5 are pathetic reviewers. They can't imagine a perspective outside their own and let anger interfere with their judgment. The developers put loads of work into this game and it came out great, while not perfect, no COD ever is. The argument that it deserves a 0 or 1 because it is a twitch shooter is absurd.

People complain they want something new. They get something new and complain they want old cod. Accept you guys can never be satisfied. It's not the games fault, you have just grown out of the series. When you start a new job, you may love it at first, but as the year's progress you will find complaints and issues with it even though its the same old job from before. COD games bring in BILLIONS of dollars for a reason. Overall, people cant stop playing, hating, and loving every moment of the games. Get a grip on your all or nothing opinion. Expand

This is a gem, its the true successor to black ops that has made COD unplayable for some time now. The pace is slower, the maps are well done, the weapons and visuals are great. The fact that pretty much any style of play can work is something we haven't seen in too long. LMGs setup down a corridor or in a bunker can hold down a point until flanked, and teamworking points seems to happen more naturally because of the maps.

    So far, some cons to note are the networks have been off and on, and they disabled HQ mode while they fix it. Honestly, the destiny-style hq mode annoys me - id rather go through menus than fake interactions but whatever, its down right now if thats your thing.

    Steep upgrade curve - until you get a few attachments, your basically cannon fodder feeding the silly negative reviews on here.

    And i'll just address the negative reviews head on, it certainly feels to me (as someone who swore off any more cod games until I had tried this one and was won back over) that many of these reviews have not actually played the game, and have it out for the devs. Reviews that talk about bad starts, probably legit, but just be wary.

    I have been playing Call of Duty since Black Ops 3 and I have never seen a game with such an atmosphere, it is simply fantastic and complements very well with the style of game that the game provides (frenetism and non-stop).
    In the campaign I have noticed a step forward for the next games of the saga (not extremely large but if remarkable) with the incorporation of point and click and some decision making. This can please people or otherwise but personally to me I liked it despite not having seen it before in a COD. The plot is quite simple but you always get to enjoy it and in some cases get fondness for certain characters. One of the things that I do not like in this way is the duration of the campaign that goes around 5 or 6 hours but if you are a normal player and even a normal rhythm you can reach 9 hours. The campaign lets you do a lot of things like driving and I think they use the concept of WWII very well note of the campaign 8

    Regarding the Multiplayer I have already played about 15 hours and I can notice that it is quite addictive and the formula is to relay the same as always. That's why it's fun but the same again and again note the multi 8

    With the zombies I have tried them and it seems easier than in previous ones and it is a fun fiente note 7

    Great Campaign, mess of an online
    Call of Duty WWII comes from the sledgehammer studio that made advanced warfare and modern warfare 3…
    This game features a 5 and a half hour long campaign, a Nazi zombies mode and of course an online competitive mode
    The star of this game is hands down the campaign..
    Here you play as Daniels, a member of the United States army during World War II…
    You occasionally play as a few surprise characters to infiltrate or take control of a tank for example...
    But the games campaign mostly focuses on him…
    And the story here is so personal, that for the first time in call of duty’s history I felt this soldier and his story wasn’t throw away…
    Easily my favorite campaign in the entire call of duty series…
    These characters are so fleshed out, all having their own personalities to them... it feels like an interactive movie..
    You have a girl waiting for you to get home, and you feel her pulling you through the entire way as you feel immersed in the battleground of world war 2
    Unique to this campaign is that you have to manage your health…
    It’s definitely takes some time getting used to patching yourself up rather than taking cover and waiting for your health to regenerate..
    But this leaves you being more cautious and aware of cover…
    This health management is made less of a nuisance thanks to your squad members... stopping this from feeling like a survival game…
    depending on the mission you’re on you’ll have different squad mates with a cool down meter to give you a med pack or ammo for example.. Mark enemies in the field…
    Again immersing me into the game, caring about my position and where my squad mates are…
    There aren’t really those epic moments you’d expect from a call of duty campaign... as this one feels more grounded in reality…
    But there is plenty of variety as you’ll be in the trenches, in a tank, in a plane, you’ll go undercover as a Nazi.. There are car chases...
    Making this campaign hard to step away from…
    but once your time in the campaign is over its back to what you’re used to from call of duty// zombies, multiplayer, and regenerating health…
    The zombies mode this time is all about Nazi tech, you’re killing zombies for points to buy new weapons, armor, upgrades, and unlocking gates and fulfilling objectives, not so much boarding up windows this time around…
    And then there’s the online multiplayer which currently during launch weekend is a complete mess…
    The game will get stuck on a load screen… there are server issues that force you to reset your router to fix.. End game results freeze on screen not giving any indication anything is happening... finding a match is a chore…
    once you do finally get a match you’re thrown into your typical call of duty modes around some pretty weak maps…
    probably my least favorite maps in the game’s history…
    And since this is a world war 2 game the weapon variety doesn’t feel that present …
    you start choosing your infantry out of 5 choices based on your play style and working on leveling them up to unlock their unique perks…
    making matches and players more unpredictable…
    once you choose your infantry you’re given that classes weapon, though you aren’t stuck with it as you can unlock any gun with rank tokens…
    And then you take your favorite gun out into the call of duty world and level it up to unlock attachments for it…
    Pretty typical stuff
    There are also daily challenges for you to do to unlock items like supply drops or earn currency to buy cards in game and unlock a special weapon or cosmetic item to give you an xp bonus or a one hit kill bonus in zombies…
    giving players something to work towards and play for online..
    It could be just me... but the maps, modes, and variety of weapons just couldn’t hook me…
    And the games awful server issues at launch didn’t help this...
    That being said... this game is worth picking up on its own for its campaign...
    I give Call of Duty WWII
    an 8/10

However, this year, we see a return to form for the series as it goes back to its "boots on the ground," World War II-era that helped define it as the gold standard for console first-person shooters. Once again, this title offers three main ways to play the game, offering a campaign mode, an online multiplayer component, and the co-op survival Nazi Zombies mode. Appropriately enough, each section will be reviewed separately, and finally summarized as one whole package.

    History buffs will fall in love with what the campaign of WWII. The story follows American soldier Private Red Daniels and his journey with his platoon through the Western Front. For those hoping to see the war in the Pacific, I am sad to say that the campaign does not explore that aspect of the war. What is easily noticed is the feeling of the war that is captured quite well through the campaign, as the first mission has Daniels and crew storming the beaches of Normandy on D-Day. The gruesome nature of battle along with the horrific cries of falling soldiers paints a larger picture of the war altogether. The sound and graphical capabilities of WWII make it one of the best looking games of the year. Throughout the story, players will visit a variety of areas, including war-torn towns, German embassies, and snow-covered forests. The variety in location reminds players that progress is being made on the Western Front, and gives a breath of fresh air. The weapons look and sound how they do to their real life counterparts, clearly the developers did their homework on the weapons and equipment used during this time. This year, the campaign introduces squad abilities. Essentially, killing enemies translates into receiving health packs and ammunition from squad mates, providing a feeling of teamwork with AI companions. The story itself is where WWII falls short, however. Red Daniels and his squad are not the most interesting characters, and while the Axis Powers are certainly the enemies, there is no strong central villain for this more concentrated tale about a squad trying to survive the war. The campaign should take about six hours to complete, with replay value through discovering collectibles and attempting to beat the game on a higher difficulty.

    Zombies mode returns and is as strong as ever. Titled "The Third Reich," players have to fend off multiple waves of the undead in an attempt to get the highest round count. Players that are strong at multitasking and working together will be drawn to this mode, and the addition of custom loadouts, objectives, and secrets to discover make the replay value for this mode very high. For those patient and skilled enough, there are many secrets to uncover around the map, as well as an easter egg to complete that has become a staple of the Call of Duty Zombies mode.

    Finally, the multiplayer. Call of Duty is famous (or infamous to some) for its solid multiplayer gameplay. Even though the series returned to its roots, the developers at Sledgehammer Games made several changes to how this year's game is played. Create a Class is gone this year, and players now choose divisions to play. Divisions are essentially playstyles that help determine how one plays the game, with each having their own drawbacks and strengths. Choose the Airborne division to rush objectives or flank quickly around the enemy, or decide on the Armored division to set up at a location and hold down lanes. Divisions is an attempt to give more defined roles to players. Perks are replaced as well this year, with one basic training slot being chosen. Paired with a player's division, basic trainings provide a bit more variety to class customization. The loss of the perk system does hinder the experience a bit, though. While customization seems to be simpler, the basic training perks do not encourage a lot of experimentation, making more predictable customization. Gone are the days where players wait in lobbies until their next match begins with the introduction of Headquarters, a player hub where supply drops can be opened, orders can be undertaken, and players can engage in one-on-one combat (my personal favorite). These changes give players a stronger connection to their in game characters, and makes ranking up more meaningful. Supply drops also make a return, but the items earned do not impact in-game statistics of the weapons. Instead, all of the items are cosmetic or XP-based, which I am sure many fans of the series will be happy to hear about. The weakest part of the multiplayer is the map design. The game ships with a total of ten maps, but most of the maps feel unmemorable, at least for the good reasons. New players may find these maps difficult to navigate, as experienced players can position themselves in arguably unfair positions oftentimes.

    Call of Duty: WWII is a strong addition to the series, and gives a lot of bang for one's buck. The return to the series roots is welcoming.

    I really wanted CoD’s return to World War II to be something more than a solid game – but it’s not. I couldn’t shake the feeling that I’ve already seen all this, that the developers (or perhaps the publisher) chose to create something as safe as possible. There’s just one campaign mission that surprised me with its scale, the rest is just a disappointing “best of Call of Duty”. The multiplayer is as good as usual, but it was infused with unnecessary systems resembling mobile titles, e.g spending in-game currency on pointless tasks of the “kill 100 enemies” variety. Missions that make you watch other players open their loot boxes are the pinnacle of absurdity. [13/2017, p.64]

    A solid return to its roots, Call of Duty WWII reminds us what made us all fall in love Call of Duty in the first place. It ticks all the boxes which is both a blessing and a curse. Good fun and worth your time but offers nothing exceptional.

    Revitalised and exemplary FPS gaming. Multiplayer trims back to the essentials, campaign shows sensitivity and Zombies...well it's a new excuse to play CoD Zombies. [Christmas 2017, p.77]
