    The four multiplayer maps in the Supremacy DLC all have a unique appearance and this makes the Supremacy DLC a beautiful addition to Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare.

    It may lack new and novel features that we can use to easily define it, but Supremacy gives us something that might be even better: Some Advanced Warfare‘s most sophisticated and entertaining competitive and cooperative maps yet.

    Call of Duty: Advance Warfare's DLC drops have become incrementally more impressive as Sledgehammer is willing to take more risks. While I didn't think it'd be able to bring anything new to the table for its first Call of Duty outing, the studio has proven me wrong, surpassing Infinity Ward in my mind.

    Supremacy won’t blow the fan base away and many may be a little miffed they didn’t get a new weapon this time around. At its core “Supremacy” is more of the same but its attention to detail has not gone unnoticed, the new maps succeed and the addition of Bruce Campbell is a treat.

    This DLC pack comes out without a bang, but manages to offer a great set of maps and an outstanding co-op experience. That's the way we like it, Activision.

    The Supremacy map pack for Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare brings quite a few interesting additions. Some, like the Parliament or Kremlin maps, work quite well, while others may not delight every fan, such as the Compound map or most parts of the Carrier Exo Zombies adventure.

    Adds four decent new maps and the chance to see Bruce Campbell firing John Malkovich. [Aug 2015, p.97]

    Supremacy will appeal to fans of the game, offering new maps to suit every type of player and offering a new Zombie map able to bind even the most experienced due to its high rate of challenge.

    A good collection of new maps, including one of the best remakes in the series. Exo Zombies still seems very derivative, but the co-op action remains solid throughout.

    This is, by far, the worst Advanced Warfare's expansion pack. Just one map stands out, and the zombie campaign is as good as ever, but that can't make up for the high price.

    On four multiplayer maps, we count a remake from Modern Warfare 2 (still an excellent playground though) and a very boring one. Hopefully, the two others are pretty nice and do the job. The Exo Zombies mission lacks of appeal here, mainly because of its layout and general design. A little bit too light.

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. For a guy who loves CoD Zombies and FPS Multiplayer (not CoD multiplayer necessarily), this is by far the best Advanced Warfare DLC to date. For all the disappointment in the past DLCs starting with the bad Outbreak Zombie map in the Havoc DLC and the average multiplayer maps in the Supremacy DLC as well as the over-hyped grapple ability, this pack puts together everything good about the previous DLCs into one pack, spawning three great maps, including one of the best remakes I've played since Studio in Black Ops 2. The Zombies map is large, and easier to get to high levels if you have a skilled team. Luck is no longer suck a huge factor in zombies as it used to be, and the maps are great! They look great, feel great. The only weak link in this map pack would have to be the Compound map, which is incredibly small. and forces you to use an SMG to get kills at all!

    Each new map has outstanding visuals!! For a review of each map, look to other people because I'm more interested in review the new zombie map, Carrier!

    SPOILER ALERT!

    The pros of the new zombie map, Carrier, is huge! Although Exo Zombies falls behind the original zombie mode from World at War and Black Ops, and, to some extent, Black Ops 2, this map finally takes away the grind of the original two maps, and improves upon the mission system from Infection. In this map, you are brought to the Carrier by Lennox, played by Bruce Gamble, and find out that the infected have taken the ship over. As you fight hordes of zombies, Atlas sends in units to try and get back its prize possessions, the survivors of the Outbreak incident, whom you play in the first two maps. Unfortunately, the huge downside of the new map is that Oz, played by John Malkovich is revealed to have been the man whom, if you saw the Infection Outro, ended up taking the bullet. For all its worth, I was incredibly disappointed by Sledgehammers decision to kill off the greatest character in this franchise, next to "Shane", rather than someone like Lilith, who still remains a very forgettable character! Not to mention the fact that it seems like there was ABSOLUTELY NO REASON for anyone to die at all. It's as if Lennox just decided "I'm going to kill someone," like an absolute serial killer and chose Oz at random! And while I'm excited they starred Bruce Gamble, the renowned actor known for starring in cult flicks such as Army of Darkness and Evil Dead, his character is somewhat dull, and serious instead of cocky or funny like the characters he usually plays in movies. He's a serious character, and does a fine job with it, but it's so frustrating knowing that Bruce could be playing a far funnier, exciting, and rememberable character. Instead, we got Lennox...

    A minor con of the zombies maps is the reoccurring lack of horror visualized in the maps. I miss the terrifying experience of zombies! Remember the first time you played Kino Der Toten, seeing the torn u[ nazi flags on the floor with the puddle of blood on the staircase! What happened to that?! Sledgehammer has yet to create that experience. Instead of horrific visuals, we have an action game! STOP BEING THE MICHAEL BAY OF VIDEO GAMES ACTIVISION!!!!

    Finally, it just seems like the chemistry of Lennox doesn't make up for the hole that Oz left behind, and while Oz has been replaced by an AI on board the vessel (I think), it's not the same as playing as him in the actual game. "Shane" is now my favorite to play as, and I love him almost as much as Oz, but I would have rather Lennox killed off Lilith instead of such a standalone brilliant character like Oz. Even still, Carrier is the first exo zombies map with REPLAYABILITY!! And that's huge!!! This map has restored my faith in the future of exo zombies, and excites me for the next DLC!

    The final score for the Supremacy DLC is an 8/10. It's a wonderful DLC that rises above most of the stuff Infinity Ward and even Treyarch have released in previous titles, but due to the major issue of killing Oz off in Zombies and the addition of Bruce Gamble as a serious, forgettable character rather than a hysterical one such as "Ash" from Army of Darkness or Evil Dead. The reoccuring issue that the new zombie mode isn't scary anymore continues to put a dent in the game mode, but we should all expect that by now. If Bruce Gamble was given a hilarious character to play, that would have filled the gap left by Oz's untimely demise, and my review might have changed from an 8/10 to a 9/10, or even a 10/10 in respect to the majesty of a remake that is Skyrise (Highrise remake from MW2) That just shows you how good this DLC is! And no, I'm not a CoD fanboy! I actually hate a lot of the new CoD games, and Advanced Warfare is average in my opinion as well.

    This is a must buy in my opinion, and if you don't have a DLC for the game yet and are thinking about getting one. Don't bother getting Havoc or Supremacy (Havoc of which is the better of the two, in my opinion), get Supremacy!!! You won't regret it    … Full Review »

    The new maps are fun, but a bit too big for my taste. Games like Advanced Warfare need smaller maps to keep the momentum up, butThe new maps are fun, but a bit too big for my taste. Games like Advanced Warfare need smaller maps to keep the momentum up, but unfortunately, maps like Kremlin are too big for the game, even Skyrise, the Highrise from MW2 remake.

    New zombies map is fun, but is as difficult as Ascendance's zombies map. It has very closed spaces, making rounds over 15 hectic.

    Overall, Supremacy is still a good DLC, but not one that is amazing.    … Full Review »
