Nov 14, 2020The game is insulting. I already asked for a refund on this.
The game is awful. Gameplay, AI, it's just insulting how bad it is. The campaign is shorter than ever.
It's impossible to play multiplayer, the connections and the dc's amount are tremendous.
For them to ship a game like this is tells how much respect they have for their audience.
Don't waste your money. -
Nov 14, 2020this game is not good not fun not worth your money and not worth your time. refunded it 7 hours after purchase.

Nov 15, 2020This is just so bad. The story on the campaign is great, but the general gameplay is awful, seems like a bad mobile game with bad everything.
Multiplayer modes are hideous, no TDM, no nice maps, and of course, no anti-cheat, because they make millions with these games but cant even invest in a god anti-cheat. The game is full of cheaters and it started in the beta! -

Nov 14, 2020This game is complete utter trash. There are so many glitches in this game. I thought they would polish this game but it was unstable as was modern warfare. I am disappointed by this.
-
Nov 14, 2020Constantly crashing, unplayable piece of **** Even beta was far more stable.
-
Nov 14, 2020I had very high hopes for this next installment. But oh jesus was i vastly disappointed. Make cod good again

Nov 14, 2020The only fun part of this game is the gun customisation. Apart from that, it's AWFUL! Also, stop allowing PC players to play with xbox and PS players, every other game theres a hacker.
-
Nov 14, 2020Same call of dutty, with slight better grafic, doesnt innovated and its the same game year after year
-
Nov 15, 2020This is the worst Call of Duty ever. How can day publish a game like this its a piece of ****
-
Nov 14, 2020Did the Official critics even touched the Multiplayer?
I mean, even if they just reviewd the solo campaign, how can they give it an 8 or a 9 out of 10. -

Nov 30, 2020Trash, pure trash. Campy, caters to new players who don’t care about getting better, just being average, Skill Based Matchmaking that is complete trash. Lobbies take longer to get into that 10 years ago, weapons that laser beam you because it’s better for new players to feel better about themselves, breaking the lobbies up after every single game.
-
Nov 22, 2020Waste of time and money. Proof that the video game industry is a predatory mafia. The more i document the bugs and glitches, the worse they get. They are killing playstations by locking up the playstation in a glitch reporting errors and glitches.
-
Nov 26, 2020Le plus grosse merde jamais joué depuis fort longtemps... un moteur de jeu vieillissant, un énorme retour en arrière de plus de 10 ans sur le feeling des armes alors que Modern Warfare était parfait, je ne parle même pas des crashs sur PS5 du peu de carte et d’opérateur, de la place sur le SSD.... bref une belle grosse merde.

Nov 23, 2020all a downgrade from modern warfare.
only the campaign and zombies are beautiful but literally copied all of modern warfare
(I don't say anything about the multy but simply BOCW = MW and BOCW -
Nov 16, 2020There is no split screen zombies!! Why do they take this away/how do they make such a mistake?

Nov 28, 2020i advise everyone not to buy this call of duty. this is the worst cod ever. severs with low tick rate. sbmm that **** you on all sides. no content. game breaking bugs and so on. this game is not worth your money
-
Nov 30, 2020Worst Call of Duty in the series.... I’ll be trading this pile of garbage in ASAP and I guess finding something else to play while waiting for, hopefully, a fantastic Battlefield game to arrive. I will never buy another Treyarch COD game ever again. Good job rushing this game out for that all important $$ grab.

Nov 30, 2020Videogame publishers don't deserve 70 dollars just because they decided they want it.

Jan 7, 2021Don’t waste your money. The game is unfinished obviously and activision couldn’t wait another day to cash in all the money from this unfinished mess of a game.
-
May 5, 2021Where do I even begin. Let's start with why even release this game the mess that it is. Modern Warfare is so much better do not waste your money on this game. It's a buggy mess that has more glitches than a Bethesda game. On top of that there are so many little exploitable things everyone uses so you die as you spawn sometimes. It's camper paradise and it's awful. Don't buy it!
-
Dec 2, 2020Unfinished game for 65 quid! crashes console, nowhere enough maps or guns. Grinding to level guns up is ridiculous and skill based match making is maxed out so if you have one good game you get battered on next game
-
Nov 19, 2020Game does not even work. Gives me a server issue, and nothing installs. Game is stuck in limbo. Unfinished work from Activision.
-
Nov 21, 2020Huge step back from Modern Warfare. Single player is the only aspect that isn’t terrible. Huge disappointment, stick to Warzone.

Nov 26, 2020How about fixing your game first before charging us 110 AUD for a piece of **** that is gonna crash our consoles into bricks? And also who the frick that has a PS5 version is going to play the PS4 version?

Jan 4, 2021Horrible..... Its an arcade game now? UI is cheap, perks not thought out, cluster f***.... Waste of my money
-
Nov 28, 2020- the game turned off my console 6 times in the first 24 hours of playing it
- constant disconnections
- mediocre graphics
- zombies is fun but there is only one map so it gets old
I usually love COD multilayer but this game feels horrible. It’s a combination of the movement mechanics, poor connections, enemies are so hard to see, poor map design. Don’t waste your money -
Nov 19, 2020Boring Campaign with thousands of stupid enemies to kill,
worst matchmaking ive seen in MP, lots of lags.
Wouldnt buy it again... -
Nov 19, 2020Zombie map is great, but no splitscreen? I mean realy?? Also everytime you try to split screen in online mp the game crashes. Treyarch should feel ashamed to put this €80 game on the market.

Nov 21, 2020Why release a game with so many bugs? It was necessary to test the game well first, and then release it.

Nov 23, 2020Downgrade from modern warfare.......it has its moments......zombies is fun.....multiplayer has its ups and downs.....the look and feel is an acquired taste......I hope they keep modern warfare mechanics in warzone instead of switching over to Cold War mechanics

Nov 30, 2020This game has SBMM that is making the game so unenjoyable to play if ur anything over a new player level. One simple fix would be to remove SBMM and it adds variety to the gaming experience.

Jan 1, 2021Cannot get multiplayer to work.
Campain takes one day to finish.
Seems like they published a half finished game -
Jan 9, 2021Terrible game. Some guns are not even worth using, very poorly made in my opinion the last game was way better.
-

Jan 16, 2021How the mighty have fallen - Cold war takes a step back in every conceivable way (the campaign being decent is it's saving grace). The multiplayer feels like it was a port from a game made 10 years ago and skill-based matchmaking seems to be intensified. Hard pass - For anyone expecting the quality that was last year's MW, - lower those expectations significantly

Sep 19, 2021Just... downloads! The campaign takes as long to download as it takes to finish. Even if you purchase the disc version you have tho download the campaign! In three parts. There different down load for textures. Separate downloads for multi-player, splitscreen, and more to play zombies. Utter crap!

Jul 9, 2023Got it for free on PS plus, I really wanted to like this game but even for free it's not worth playing, very poor game. I pity the people who've paid for this scam of a game. I thought about mentioning the errors and flaws in my review but you can write off the entire game as a huge error, RIP call of duty. I'm not going to give this franchise another chance even for free... Pathetic game

Mar 20, 2021This is the worst nightmare for a real CoD fan. Played every game in the saga (not portable spinoffs) since original CoD on my Pentium III. This isn't nightmarish as a product itself. It is after the release of Modern Warfare. It was like Activision telling the fanbase "hey, let's go back 5 or 6 years boys". And that's enough for me. 1/10

Dec 11, 2020Game is broken ! Lot of bugs ! The theme is good but so few modes, maps and guns make the Multiplayer repetitive , don´t waste your time with this crap , feels like a plastic downgrade compared with COD MW ! Also SBMM ruins the matches ! !

Dec 14, 2020Es la misma mierda que se sacan del orto, pero con distinto nombre y cagadas. Pero que la cagan igual de siempre!
-
Jul 10, 2023another fine example of pay to win BS. multiplayer is fun, but not when you're level 24 and you are playig against people with level 3000+ and higher, and have guns with zero recoil and heat vision. but don't fret, if you don't want to grind to get better gear, you can just buy better guns for actual money. so yes on to[p of the $$ for the game, you'll have to spend more just to compete.

Jul 2, 2021Thankfully, a few of the early bugs were ironed out of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, and subsequent season passes have patched up modes and maps that were lacking. The campaign is genuinely intriguing but may not appeal to those who just want to run and gun. Zombies and Multiplayer modes are plentiful and there should be something for everyone to thoroughly enjoy. Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War should be used as the poster child for PlayStation 5's DualSense controller which has been put to full use for an immersive experience. Casual players will be somewhat put off by the sheer storage space required to fully experience everything that is on offer, especially given that SSD capacity is this generation's gold dust, but Call of Duty die-hards will most likely overlook this.

CD-ActionJun 9, 2021I have no doubt that the latest Call of Duty will earn ridiculous amounts of money once again, but I will remember it as a dip in form, a game that’s closer to mediocrity than greatness. The story campaign has a satisfying finale but as a whole is rather uninspired, while the multiplayer has lost the tactical feel I enjoyed in Modern Warfare Remastered. [01/2021, p.56]

May 10, 2021Call Of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is the video game equivalent to that one kid in class with a sugar rush and an addiction to pixie sticks. Sure, it might be entertaining for a little while, but the more time you spend with it, the more you realize it’s just rambling on aimlessly. Ultimately, with its lack of a clear vision and focus on what makes a game fun, Cold War isn’t going to entertain you for long.
