    Same **** with a ww2 skin, gun-play doesn't feel any different from other games and they didn't even try to make this game historically accurate.

I haven't touched the campaign because, like I mentioned before, I only bought this to play online multiplayer with my loved ones. I'm willing to change my review score if Sledgehammer can patch things up so I can actually play the game that I bought. I only ask that I can go 10 minutes without an error popping up. An error literally just showed up as I was typing this review. I'm not even joking. Kill me Expand

    This game is horrible. Literally the only redeeming quality is parts of the campaign but even then it is one of the shortest campaigns in CoD history and still does nothing compared to CoD4/MW2/WaW/BO1/BO2.

    The MP... good lord is it horrible... guns lack any authenticity and are completely reskins (Tommy gun is literally the ASM-1 of AW). Returning the moment I leave work.

    "BOOTS ON THE GROUND" what a load of nonsense. This is another copy and paste CoD game. Campaign is absolutely awful. Zombies is decent but 1 map is not worth it. MP is lacking and the EXACT SAME for years now.

    What a huge waste of money. Should be called Connection Off Duty. Multiplayer is entirely dependent on who has the minutely better connection. Maps are TINY and 6v6 boring roflstomps. Does nothing great for the franchise except Zombies. Hope I can get 30 bucks for this **** on aftermarket.

    What a terrible game. What a sad return to WW2. I actually enjoy the campaigns of COD games - this is the first that i just find totally unplayable. Bad characters, the worst quick-time-events i've ever seen, arcade-style shooting and the most boring story.

    By far, the worst call of duty ive ever played. Just terrible in all aspects. I was actually kind of excited about this game but it was such a huge dissapointment. The zombies is okay. If i were to rate the zombie game mode by itself id give it a 6.5. But the multiplayer is honestly terrible.

This game is SO poor: graphics are nowhere as it should be on today's consoles, animations are the same as 10 years ago, explosives are poorly done and the indestructible and hidden borders of the environment is something retarded.

    That's because of the old engine from the beginning of the franchise. They just 'modified' it but the basics remain the same. The download package is 70GB (!!!!), all of which is bloatware. We're not talking about ultra HD graphics are heavy renedering for next gen consoles.

    The gameplay in multiplayer is very arcade, very fast and it's like I'm playing against and with bots. They all move so jerky. Shooting mechanics are poorly done, it doesn't feel right, it's all too fast. After a MP round, it takes ages and ages before a new game starts and you have to stare five minutes at the scoreboard without any possiblity to go to another screen.

    What's great? The unlockables, the perks and kill cams are still great and something to play for. But the gaming experience is so so so poor and it's painful to see how the gaming press keep giving it high scores. Perhaps it's because of the Campaign Mode, which I'm not interested in.

    But the whole game experience and above all, the game mechanics are retarded and outdated. This is a game for PS3, not for current gen consoles. Once again, you should be ashamed Activision to support publishing a cheap rip off of this franchise. IW or Sledgehammer MUST create a new engine for this game.

    This is like like playing FIFA 07 on a PS4 in 2017.

    Sorry for my english. How do dear critics of various gaming editions put this game 9-10 points? Are you crazy? "Apparently, they got a good salary from the creators of the game." There is nothing interesting in this game! The BLACK OPS series is 10 points! Missing confidence in the ratings of critics! Only users' opinions can be trusted!

I never have wrote a review on here, but this game pushed all the wrong buttons with me.Seriously, how is World at War STILL a superior game in this day and age. OH YEA, because it wasnt afraid to make you feel uncomfortable, it wasnt afraid to make you uneasy. That game still gives me chills, so dark and so gruesome. Thats the image of war that haunts me. one day this pandering needs to stop.

    The standard issue calling cards DO NOT include flags of nations that actualy faught in the war, instead we have to swallow the image of these LGBT my little furrie flags flying over Normandy. GOD ALMIGHTY, stop with this political **** you are literally killing yourselves with this stuff sledge...
    If i could go back in time only once, I would stop sledgehammer games from ever being part of the call of duty cycle.

I have owned systems and played games that some may have never seen or even heard of. Games have been a major part of my life since I was a child throwing tantrums over Thrillas Surf and Safari. I have played many COD titles and always at least tried to remain a loyalist. It wasn't until the N64 era that I really dug into the FPS genre with classic titles like Goldeneye and Perfect Dark. Call of Duty launched (many years later), and wow what a fantastic beginning to a franchise! Epic multiplayer and short yet powerful campaigns. It almost seemed like it would never stop either, every year a new COD would launch and it was a must have! Suddenly it seemed like it started to falter. It went from a perspective I understood to double jumping and running along the walls; flying through the air with jet packs.. Needless to say I wasn't much of a fan and only bought the new franchise titles when they were on sale or at a killer discount. Even then... After playing Ghosts, I realized the franchise had completely fallen into disarray and I converted my attention more into the battlefield franchise. I played Infinite Warfare with a friend and almost couldn't physically do it. Another COD failure. I should have known better. Then alas! A "boots on the ground" Call of Duty! Could this be a rebirth of a once great franchise!? Could this be another great title; reminiscent of the original Black Ops 1?? How exciting! I had to go out and get it on launch day! Nov 3rd! I had high hopes and hadn't bought a COD title in years. I dove right into multiplayer and tested every available weapon I could. It had a renewed feeling and I was excited. For 20 minutes. Then the endorphins settled and I took note to aspects of the game that became more evident. Like why do I keep playing the same 2 or 3 maps over and over? why is everyone running around with SMGs? Why is every map so small and contained? I quickly started to feel like I spent 59.99 for a few hours of enjoyment, and that afterwards, this game would sit on the shelf with the dozen or so other titles I have that rarely played in the last 6 months or so, and as I sit here typing, that is where CODWW2 sits. In the case, on my shelf, next to The Wolf Among Us. I anticipate that is where it will stay, while Battlefield 1 sits pretty in my Playstation. Mark my words, this WILL be the last COD game that I purchase, and I implore you to not make the same mistake that I did. Now I sit, eagerly awaiting the next Battlefield installment, but even if that takes years, Battlefield 1 will still satisfy me more than CODWW2 ever could. Expand

    Before I list the pros and cons I want to say that this review is not based on me being bitter or being a "hater" or any of that crap. I got my kill/death ratio to around 2.6 so I'm a lot better than the average player. This is an honest review.

    Pros: ▪Not a bad campaign but not great either. ▪Graphics are good in the campaign and average in multi-player. ▪Footsteps are easily

    Pros:

    ▪Not a bad campaign but not great either.
    ▪Graphics are good in the campaign and average in multi-player.
    ▪Footsteps are easily heard unlike MW Remastered.
    ▪ I personally like the new HQ instead of just sitting looking at a lobby screen. Pretty cool how you can look around and interact with different things.

    Cons:
    ▪Team balancing is horrendously poor. I played around 100 games and was on the team full of clueless morons about 75% of the time. A lot of games were not close at all, too one-sided.
    ▪The game lags quite often and has caused me multiple deaths (Not my connection as every other multi-player game is fine).
    ▪There is something massively wrong in multi-player. In many 1 v 1 gunfights where on my screen we (Me and an opponent) see eachother at the same time and I shoot first, get about 10 bullets into my opponent and he picks his **** gun up whilst being shot and drops me in 2 bullets. I watch the killcam and somehow he was already shooting me before I even lifted my gun up?? He had taken no damage either WTF??! Absolute joke.
    ▪Loot crates should not be in any game ever unless the game was free maybe. People already paid £50+ for the game and these greedy developers aren't satisfied and want more money for doing nothing basically.
    ▪Perk system/Division is just stupid in my opinion as it restricts you. If you don't want to show up on the enemy UAV then you have to use the Mountain division. You may also want to resupply from dead enemies.. Nope! Sorry, you can't have both as resupplying is in another division. So dumb. Should have just had normal perks as usual.
    ▪The maps are absolute garbage except 3. The other 6 are just painful to play. The inept developers had very little imagination when designing them. Only 9 **** maps in the base game is absolutely pathetic as well. The war game mode has its own 2-3 unique maps but that gamemode is pretty poor anyway.
    ▪They are copying off Battlefield with the Bayonet charge, War mode etc.
    ▪Gameplay is too fast paced.. everyone runs around like they are **** Olympic athletes on steroids. Why can't the game just be a bit slower paced??
    ▪Guns have basically no recoil making it very easy for terrible scrubs to shoot you from 40 yards with an SMG, laughable.
    ▪No-scoping and quick-scoping is too easy. Something else that caters to the 10 year olds who think they are pros, Jesus Christ.
    ▪You die a bit too quickly. Well.. I do at least. On my screen I am killed instantly but when I shoot enemies it sometimes takes 15 bullets and that's without missing.
    ▪The community is absolutely cancerous. Sitting in windows or behind objects head-glitching, sitting in corners, drop-shotting etc etc. This is not the developers fault obviously but it is another reason not to buy this trash.

    I could be on all day with the cons so I will just end it there. I give it a 2/10. Just absolutely terrible. The amount of **** which happens in multi-player is just mind-boggling. I almost smashed my controller on 10 seperate occasions. It's depressing thinking how great CoD used to be. WaW, BO1 were just brilliant. This **** doesn't come close to either. This is 100% the last CoD I ever, ever purchase. Deleted the game. Good **** riddance.

It hardly takes any sort of means to actually come up with a strategy anymore because all you have to do is run and gun then hopefully you get that OP gun that the Zombie mode gives you FOR FREE!!!

Avoid this game, its a waste of time. you could be playing something fun. This is a serious setback for Activision. Worst game I've played in years. Its like forcing long-time fans to fight like dogs. Unelegant. Crass. Tampered-with. Admit it, you played this game and it WASN'T fun. I'd rather play Counterstrike, Battlefront, checkers, with myself, ANYTHING is more fun than this. 2/10, because nice single player...sorta. Crashed 4 times on me on PS4 before I got to "play". TWITCH SHOOTERS CANT BE WW2 SHOOTERS!

    Cod WW2 is IMO one of the worst in the entire series along side Ghosts and Blops 2 and 3. It is basically broken.
    I have no idea what they've done to the servers but for the past two weeks they no longer work. The lag is game breaking and completely destroys all the fun. It makes the game a frustrating mess. Nearly every game I play I see the enemy first, unload a full clip into them

    I have no idea what they've done to the servers but for the past two weeks they no longer work. The lag is game breaking and completely destroys all the fun. It makes the game a frustrating mess. Nearly every game I play I see the enemy first, unload a full clip into them getting 10 hit markers while they kill with one bullet. Even playing with steady aim and firing from the hip doesn't work, as soon as you see an enemy -as you are pulling the trigger- you are dead. On the rare occasion you will beast but sadly knowing it's because everyone else is lagging. Sometimes it hilarious; like when I came up behind a camper facing the opposite direction, unleashed a series of bullets into his head only for him to suddenly teleport around and quick scope me. Sometimes you could cry - like the round I played and went 0.20 because not a single bullet from any weapon would register.

    I switched back to IW and there I was, top of every game pulling high scores and low deaths. No other game I own lags like COD WW2. Battlefield runs perfect, Overwatch runs perfect, COD IW runs perfect, COD 4 remaster runs perfect yet WW2 is like playing on a 46k modem.

    The social hub is still a ghost town which they haven't bothered to fix, but made sure they added COD Points to buy loot crates!

    Maps are a mess, badly designed and boring. There's next to no content.

    The war maps are actually pretty fun and for some bizarre reason don't lag anywhere near as much as the standard maps, but there's only 3 of them!

    With the season pass you get a remastered map from COD2 which is insulting considering they didn't give enough maps with the main game, no doubt it was removed simply to entice people to buy the season pass.

    Basically it doesn't work, we should all be refunded for paying for a product that is basically in alpha stage still.

    Worst Cod in the history of cod. Avoid at all costs.

    ....................................................

    Update 06.01.18
    Two months after launch I have deleted COD WW2. The servers are completely broken to a point where it is now impossible to play. Lag com, poor hit detection, teleportation and spawns are destroying any fun that could have been had. Every game is a constant frustration and doing well is not based on skill but if you have lag comp for or against you. It's beyond frustrating to shoot first, get 12 hit markers and die to see in your kill cam you haven't even fired a bullet. This is officially the worst COD in the entire history of COD. It's a cheap rushed bare bones mess.

    The entire franchise is desperate to add something new, but in the end always settles for focusing on the multiplayer side of the game, which the codtards always eat up.

    Another MAJOR issue is that the tank controls are awful, straight up terrible. It makes for an incredibly difficult and frustrating experience when your tank turns like a slug, gets stuck on scenery and is downright bad - the controls need to be reworked. Another major issue is the hit boxes, they are bad - really really bad, more than a few times on a quick time event you can just blindly fire your gun and miss the target...but it'll still register as a hit/kill.

    I would like to see COD evolve from both a weak single player experience, and a weak multiplayer arena shooter, the logical step would be an open world live war with dynamic missions, drop in/out multiplayer.

    Roll on several years and I picked up WWII for PS4, to start with I thought yes the controls are tight the action reasonably well paced I thought 'this might be pretty solid'.. I was wrong.
    1st the quick time events (QTE) are horrible maybe it's me but reading the prompts wasn't obvious initially, and these QTE start getting over used real quick.
    2nd If anything makes me scream obscenities at a game it's headshotting an enemy (not a boss a normal grunt) and them getting up as if nothing more inconvenient than a tenis ball had bopped them on the nose and if you shoot a German in his velar weave mithril silver trench coat expect to empty several rounds to inconvenience him, what the hell man!? it isn't 1996 anymore! games moved past this kind of cheap bullet sponging decades ago.
    3rd British SOE agents, there is SOO much wrong with this anyone with half a brain or any level of understanding of the SOE is forced to cringe and I'm not talking about the now obligatory female agent (they existed maybe not in the capacity shown but I can live with that) what made me cringe was as soon as SOE were mentioned I thought ok when do they roll out the cockney weasels.. TADA as if by magic.
    By the time I derailed an heavily armoured train WITH A JEEP!!! ffs I had had enough, I couldn't suspend my disbelief any further this campaign was badly written poorly implemented garbage.
    I'm glad I didn't pay full price for this game I would have felt violated.
    I'm yet to try the multiplayer, for all I enjoy MP COD, the campaign is primarily why I used to buy these titles.

    Know that I haven't played the game myself but also know that I'm not a idiot when it comes to quality FPS games and guess what? This game sucks. You play one of these crappy cod games and you have pretty much played them all... I have done enough research and have seen that the game is as I had expected. Trash... But hey... We smart people all saw this coming. We knew it was going to suck lol. Just another terrible cod game with the WW2 paint coat put on.

    Short 6 hour campaign that's not very historically accurate as advertised. Also has dumb AI and glitches on top of stuttering issues many have been reporting.

    Game also has micro transactions which automatically knocks the game down several points.

    Lobbies and load times are totally garbage in this game. Dead zone issues with aiming have been reported multiple times.

    Trash maps that are very few with many guns missing that I'm sure will be released over time through dlc/micro transaction horse **** and butt ****ery...

    Here's the funniest thing of all... Apparently the ps4 version is working better than the xbox one version. The xbox one version was unplayable for the first few days of launch for most xbox one folk... At least the online multiplayer part. So why is the ps4 version getting a slightly lower metacritic critic score by the critics???? Lol whatever... Maybe it's got something to do with that over priced and pretty much useless for gamers console known as the xbox one x? Who knows who cares...

    There are other problems but I don't care to remember them right now. I'm just caring enough to do this review for laughs and for the good of gaming. DON'T buy jokes of a game like this one. They exist to rob you blind and leave you with nothing but frustration. You people should honestly know this by now. I mean for ****s sake... It's cod... It's crap division... It's supposed to suck lol.

    Decent visuals though... Lets not let this review be all negativity... Gotta give credit where it's due I suppose... Just to be fair and nice : )

    Even without many of the problems I listed though... It's still just trashy cod at the end of the day so I would still give it a low score lolz.

    The multiplayer is wildly inconsistent. Under the exact same circumstances one game it will take 3 bullets to kill a full health player and 6 the next game. The hit boxes for sniper rifles extend in a 3 foot radius around player making sniper rifles win every single time in close quarters with the auto aim snapping. It's broken and it's annoying as hell.

    Campaign: SUCKS. This is NOT a campaign. It is only 5 hours long. I am sorry, but a campaign should not take 5 hours to beat. I have purchased DLC content greater than that.

    Multiplayer: TERRIBLE. COD continues to use the same gaming engine from 2007 and it shows in the graphics, they are terrible. Gameplay and movement is horrible. You are constantly swaying side-to-side which was intentional to give it that feel of really walking, it failed. Aiming is choppy as well. Above all that, the thing that really destroys COD is the community. You still have the same people playing that ruin the game. This game requires no skill, you can pick it up and get 15 kills without trying. People either hide or run around aimlessly like morons.

    Zombies: Didn't even play. I was so displeased with everything else that I sold the game not even 24 hours later.

    Lootboxes: These are NOT pay to win, they are cosmetic crap only.

    I really wanted to like this game so much.

There hasn't been a decent COD game since Black Ops One, and even then, that's where the series started to change for the worst. Even the remake of Modern Warfare has left little to be desired. Twitch shooters are not fun, just mindless running around. I really wanted to give this game a chance, as they promised going back to the roots. Well, they went back to the roots of Call of Duty on the surface only, that being a themed game in World War Two. That's the only thing. It is still a stupid, mindless twitch shooter. My first hour in, I was four matches into playing just regular Team Death Match and my soldier score was 16/45 with a KDR of .36. I don't seem to have that trouble on games like Battlefront or Battlefield. I do like the layout of the maps, lots of choke points, but the fact remains that this is a twitch shooter. The gameplay gets very tiresome very quickly. The last Call of Duty game I "bought' brand new was with my Xbox One and that was Ghosts. Ghosts was a better attempt to fix the last couple of releases prior to it, but still fell short. I vowed never to buy a COD game again. Yet the promises and hope that Activision finally drilled into the developers heads that the players wanted a solid COD game again, has fallen very short. It's the same rinse and repeat re-skinned twitch shooter. So now that I have wasted my money, I can say that I am officially DONE with this franchise. I will never purchase another COD game new. I didn't even buy the remastered Modern Warfare new because I had a feeling it was going to be trash, I bought it cheap on ebay and I recommend anyone wanting to give this game a chance to wait a while and do the same, get the game cheap on ebay as a re-sell and the company doesn't get the profit. OH, and if you thought the microtransactions of the last game were bad...wait until you see COD WW2's. Micro transactions everywhere. This is a trash game, save your money and continue to have faith in DICE and the Battlefield series...they for the most part listen to their customers and deliver a mostly solid game. Expand

The campaign clocks in at around 6.5 hours. So don't even consider it if you're strictly a single player fan. The multiplayer is more of the same with a fresh (kind of) coat of paint. Same old bullet sponge casual mechanics, Same old glitches throughout that likely won't ever get addressed, but perhaps worst of all - completely unbalanced maps. I was a little surprised at this because map design for the most part has been fairly consistent in Call of Duty, but alas, never count the franchise out for brand new disappointments.

    Some of the maps are just glaringly uneven. Objective based maps where one team is constantly fighting uphill in the open puts that team at a considerable disadvantage and makes for a 100% consistent rate of losses on those maps in my experience. Even with a party of 6 good players we found ourselves losing on those specific maps in those specific game modes.

    The game is a joke. The franchise has been a joke for nearly a decade. Do not buy this game.

I was not a fan of Call of Duty's last release of Advance Warfare but looking back even that is 100 times better than this new one. I am trying to find something positive to say about it so I will say that their cut scene are very cool and the graphics are amazing but non of that translates into the actual gameplay. The zombies can be fun and seems to be the main selling point of their game because its really the only thing people play. I would highly recommend NOT buying Call of Duty World War II.

It far surpasses any of its competition at the moment and is an incredibly fun game to play. Expand

    They also added a "public" area for interactions with other players. The game servers run so poorly though that you can't even connect to random online players. If the game did run correctly, the game would make you go into these public area to open your loot boxes in front of everyone. They do this in hopes of sparking other players to buy loot boxes if yours contains a good weapon skin or other useless items.

Every map is tiny and forces you into 3 lanes. There's no strategy at all. Basically the multiplayer is like taking a bunch of autistic children, giving them guns and crack, and throwing them into a tiny map. Hit detection is nothing short of horrific. Time after time I'd fire a shotgun point-blank into an enemy's chest only to have it not register at all and be killed. Most gunfights are based on some perverse sense of luck rather than any skill. The weapon damage has no basis in reality. HQ is a waste of time, and the micro-transactions are simply another insult to an already poor game. If you want mindless run and gun with campers, horrible hit detection, no skill required, etc. then this game is for you. If you want a half decent FPS then look somewhere else. Expand

This franchise has taken up thousands of my life ever since I discovered World At War all those years ago but ladies and gentlemen I come to you today a broken man. Words cannot describe how much of an insult to our community this is. This is a game that IF you manage to connect will shove microtransactions and supply drops down your throat at every screen and opportunity its absurd. Once you clear away that trash and try to find a game there's a solid chance you'll be disconnected before it even starts. If it starts and you maintain a ping less than 100 then congrats you'll get to enjoy the most inconsistent gameplay I have ever experienced in an online game. The pacing in a humble game of TDM can change so fast. In one moment it'll be balls to the wall and then absolute silence for the rest of the game. The maps are simplistic, uninspired and boring to look at. In each DLC pack you pay for all you will get is a few new maps that are just as **** as the vanilla ones. Zombies has been turned into an overly complicated mess which is just completely against the ethos of zombies. The Colour palate is bland and washed out, the menu navigation is the slowest and most broken it has ever been in the history of the franchise and will straight up block you from accessing parts of the menu for no apparent reason. The campaign uninspiring, the script and its delivery make me want to do a Van Gough. At no point has this game felt worth the price it makes you pay. This game fails on all fronts. Microsoft had the good taste many years back to apologise for Windows Vista many years back and and that was good of them but, Activision, the only thing you can do to make up for this dumpster fire is to give a full refund to all who bought the game and desire one. This game, from a standpoint of gameplay and user friendliness , is more flawed than No Mans Sky. standpoint Expand

    The updates are too much and too many. Changes are ridiculous. The action was fine and now they keep adding stuff that don't make sense and are making the game not interesting at all. They took the game Gridiron away as a challenge and combined it with others. Sucks big time! Games are changing as you play. Very poor entertainment.

    normal garbage, nothing new, get ready for random aimbot during the campaign and a lot of frustration. the enemies manage to hit you through the smoke grenade and depending on it is hitkill. CGI is good but during the game the graphics is all locked and grotesque, melee attacks don't work well and when you try to do some heroic act the enemies keep hitting you with aimbot.

I remember BF4 had some serious multiplayer issues on launch, so hopefully they fix this game so it's not a complete waste of $60.

    There is a Destiny style social space that makes no sense. There's no benefit to having this feature apart from showing off to everyone what you get from loot boxes. This allows Activision to bank on other players jealousy and sell even more loot boxes.

    The historical inaccuracies are really insulting too. Red dot sights and hollow sights did not exist during WW2, soldiers weren't allowed to wear colorful uniforms yet this game allows you to buy weird skins that do fit warfare or even the time period, AND WHY ARE THERE BLACK NAZIS? This is insulting to black people. Nazis were openly racist and I wouldn't want to dress up as someone who committed major atrocities against my race.

    Swastikas are censored BTW. And you can play as female soldiers just as easily as male ones. SJWs have hit the gaming industry really hard.

    Not gonna talk about zombies cause I'm tired of shooting zombies. ENOUGH ZOMBIES.

    Campaign has a very good story and characters are interesting, but its too short. 6 hours is too little and this game was clearly developed multiplayer first with single-player as an afterthought. I won't be surprised when the day comes that CoD ships without a single player campaign.

    The first thing I noticed was how HEAVILY supply drops are advertised in this game, that whole headwaters thing or whatever is the most shady thing Ive ever seen in a game. You're basically encouraging little kids to watch other people open their supply drops and get all those cool guns, encouraging those kids to ask mommy and daddy for money so that they can get them. On top of that you have the supply drop matchmaking which puts bad players against good players who have Supply drop weapons, on purpose, in order to further advertise them. If you're a parent DO NOT BUY THIS GAME FOR YOUR KIDS
    The game takes a ridiculously long time to load , the graphics look horrible. The hit detection and lag and insanely bad too. And last but not least , speaking of insanely bad , the MAPS are the worst maps ive ever seen in call of duty. Not only is it super hard to see people in the first place, but the maps themselves have so many openings, so much stuff everywhere. It doesn't matter how you play , you can get shot from behind. I can barely hear footsteps too. There is no way to tweak the graphics to make it easier to see ppl either ,everyone is headglitching and spawn camping in what seems to be an endless labyrinth of bs. The menu is awful, I want the old create a class point system. How does a 5KD player in all other boots on the ground cods struggle to get a 1KD in this game ? How does my 50mbps up and 50 mbps down drop to 2 bars every time I meet an enemy ?
    Every cod game seems to be getting worse and worse ever since Ghosts and every time they are trying harder and harder to push supply drops . Its like its not even about the game anymore, its about, what kind of shady bs we can do to sell more supply drops.
    You know what Im not even mad. Thank you for the refund PlayStation ! This is the 3rd CoD game I return following Ghosts , Advanced Warfare and Infinite Warfare.
    I swear on my mothers grave I will never buy another CoD game every again ! Not only that, I genuinely feel relieved and dont feel like id miss anything.
    Let's conclude this with the fact that supply drops should be made illegal, this is literally gambling, and Im not really concerned about me, as I haven't spent a dime on that scam, I'm more concerned about the younger audience. Manipulation of young innocent children to such high extent with what should be ILLEGAL gambling like I said should be made illegal.
    Every single game that has supply drops in it SUCKS, as they are nothing more than a corrupted scheme to steal people's money and CoD WW2 is the perfect example of what happens when you try to push this ever harder.
    Good luck dealing with legal trouble in the future Activation , it won't be long till you start getting lawsuits and all those money which you manipulated people and pretty much near stole it from them is going to be taken away from you.

The game takes place in World War II just as many people have been wishing for, however from the moment of the game's reveal it was completely apparent that Activision were trying to capitalise on Battlefield 1's success in a desperate attempt to remain prominent within the genre.

    The game is entirely lifeless and the setting feels one layer deep, as opposed to the historically accurate 'realism' of war that made the earlier Call of Duty games such a hit. If I can use any gun in any fight, regardless of historical accuracy, I might as well call in a giant Loot box to crush the opponent, that's how immersion shattering it is.

    Speaking of Giant Loot boxes....Call of Duty: WWII is absolutely atrocious in it's dependence on Loot boxes to generate excessive wealth for Activision, and to exploit the consumer. Any game that dares to reward me for watching other people gamble in an attempt to convince me to do so as well will not be tolerated at all.

    To Conclude:
    Call of Duty: WWII is a half-hearted attempt to cash in on the success of its rivals and restore the dwindling fanbase of the series that lacks meaningful characterization or weight both in its writing and technical aspects. The game compromises the legitimacy of its historical emulation for the sake of Loot Boxes and it shows a terrible lack of confidence or respect for both the series itself and the dedicated fans who've supported the series for years.

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]
