    I can't comment on the multiplayer, but the single-player campaign is among the most generic paint-by-numbers FPS gameplay I've ever encountered. Cinematic, and graphically pleasing? Yes, and also completely soul-less and devoid of any real emotion, as if it was created by Hollywood committee.

    The game does an admirable job of making you feel like you're a part of a war with many combatants on screen, but it is undermined by the sloppy frustrating combat. You don't know who is firing at you half the time. The last mission is one of the most terribly designed levels I've ever encountered, with rockets fired at you that you can't dodge, and so much smoke everywhere that you can't see the enemy. They've also brought back the egregious use of quick-time events, and added what are essentially terrible escort missions in the way of dragging wounded soldiers to safety. This is not what the genre was missing, and feels like a step backwards.

    Wowie this is bad. The campaign is the most forgettable and generic in the whole series, the multiplayer gets stale quickly, and the zombies mode is bland and not a ton of fun. I really don't like this game.

    This game is probably the worst Call of Duty that I've played in every sense of the word. It was a shame I got suckered into this for $120 as a pre-release, thinking it might have some redeemable quality, but compared to most other Call of Duties, it does not. I'll be going into the 3 main components of the game, and I've played this for 130 hours to 100% the game.

It was a shame I got suckered into this for $120 as a pre-release, thinking it might have some redeemable quality, but compared to most other Call of Duties, it does not. I'll be going into the 3 main components of the game, and I've played this for 130 hours to 100% the game.

    Campaign: Now there are some good things here. The cutscenes are fantastic, the health packs are a nice way to change up the COD formula, and it has some touching moments. However, that doesn't even come close to making it worth to play. Veteran is a challenge because of the context, and it isn't unfair in most areas. However it feels exactly like Halo, where you're a one man army mowing down enemies, while your crew doesn't do much unless you tell them to push or give you an item. The collectibles are laughable, the characters don't really feel like much and give little to no motivation for us to move on. The conflict is USA vs Germany. No other countries, when the game is based on the LARGEST WAR THE WORLD HAS SEEN with THE MOST COUNTRIES. The game also doesn't have the ability to use certain elements that were in WW2. But besides the point, the campaign is on of the reasons I played Call of Duty, and this one is very underwhelming to say the least.

    Multiplayer: It's one of the most boring multiplayer experiences in COD history. Barely any guns on launch, can't get more without coughing up money it seems, and the lootboxes make the game even worse. The social space has no reason to exist, though I do like some of the things it did, like testing out killstreaks, guns, and 1v1'ing friends. Other than that, any other COD will give you a better experience and more worth for your money.

    Zombies: I enjoyed every other game's zombies to some degree (excluding Advanced Warfare), but this one is the worst of all of them so far. The maps are so dark for no apparent reason in the beginning, the boss zombies are just the worst in the franchise's history, and the Easter Eggs are grindy and non-sensical for the most part. The gun play is garbage and every weapon feels terrible. It's boring, not fun, uninspired, not worth it for any zombies player.

    In conclusion: This game is worth $5-$10 at most. The amount of effort that went into this game is appalling, and the priorities of the development team are clearly towards money rather than a good game. A disappointment for everyone who played or bought the game.

    I barely touched WW2 because it was so bad. It's easily my most hated CoD of all time and I genuinely have a hard time thinking of anything positive to say about it. Bad maps, bad gameplay, bad almost everything. I am aware it received a lot of improvements after I quit though so it may be worth trying now.

    It's... bad. There's no other way around it. This game is bad. The lootboxes, poor customization, weak singleplayer story, horrid multiplayer maps, and a bare bones zombie mode make this possibly the worst Call of Duty so far (although I still haven't played BO4). This is the game that made me swear an oath to never pre-order a game.

    Probably one of the worst WWII games out there. History wise, it makes almost no sense. The game play of the campaign is so linear it's not even funny. Sections of the campaign where you play as a tank or a plane are horrible. The tank section has you take so many hits from shells that should go right through your tank its not even funny.

The tank section has you take so many hits from shells that should go right through your tank its not even funny. The plane section is just boring. The campaign also only follows ONE PERSON. On ONE SIDE, fighting ONE ENEMY. This is World War II. A war that took place on all fronts of the globe. So why only have us play the Americans vs German side. There is also no variety (you just shoot Germans). The "stealth" sections are small and barely cut into the game play. The campaign is also very generic (American kid goes to war, makes buddies, makes enemies with A-hole sergeant, and learns his wife is pregnant). Like seriously, how generic can you get. Now let me talk MP. Match making is as slow as the US communications during the actual war. the guns sound like they were all made in a knockoff warehouse rather than a German or american factory. They sound so bad that it doesn't even sound like warfare, more like an Airsoft fight. The multiplayer just has you run around 3 lane maps with no cover or any style (honestly all the maps feel the same). And yes, I like Gustav cannon as it is a WWII map that makes sense. Battles weren't fought in 3 lane areas, it was fought over massive plots of land or large strategic points. I'm not even going to touch loot boxes but they're there, as well as Zombies, as I don't ply too much of it. Bottom line is that if you want a good WWII game, don't buy this garbage. Campaign wise, World at War or even COD 2 is far superior. This was $60 down the drain. Expand

    Players will ask what went wrong in COD WW2, and that’s a shame. Even if it does have an awesome campaign that you can probably watch on YouTube, it’s plagued by an awful zombies experience and decaying multiplayer.

In a game where you shoot each other dead with tie dye grenade launchers and wacko killstreaks, this subject matter should not be within a 1000 feet of this game's narrative. The tone is completely incoherent. Severe missteps on Sledgehammer's part. The characters/story all showed promise up until the very end, which is even more disappointing. Multiplayer is riddled with microtransaction/loot box garbage and overall isn't a very solid experience even to play. The campaign does have a few really cool moments, and the technical aspects of the game are quite impressive, but overall this game is an misguided mess.

    Voici l'Appel du Devoir numéro 425621556 dont le sujet se déroule cette fois pendant la Seconde Guerre Mondiale... comme un certain Appel du Devoir 2 il y a des lunes et des lunes ! quelle originalité, les bras nous en tombent et nous en restons bouche bée.

    C'est reparti donc comme en 40 ou 44 plutôt pour sauver le monde libre mais occupé et comme jadis, c'est la foire aux scripts dans ce jeu-couloir certes spectaculaire mais rapidement aussi ennuyeux qu'un discours à l'Assemblée. En vérité, on s'ennuie si vite qu'on envoit des SMS et qu'on lâche des "kikoos" sur les réseaux sochiasses.

    Aux scripts innombrables viennent se greffer des saloperies de QTE et si la vie ne remonte plus toute seule (incroyable...) si on peut utiliser des trousses de soin, le jeu reste fidèle à lui-même, entièrement suspendu à votre bon vouloir, car la guerre c'est vous qui allez la gagner et personne d'autre : tant que vous ne percutez pas le script qui déclenche l'évènement suivant, les ennemis et vos copains se mettent sur la gueule et ressuscitent en masse ad vitam eternam comme des **** bots coincés dans une boucle. C'est assez risible à voir !

    On reste en tout cas souvent à l'étroit dans ces niveaux et la jouabilité n'a pas évolué d'un iota pour sa part : épaulez, visez et visez surtout la tête parce que sinon il en faudra des bastos pour les zigouiller ces andouilles ! De toute façon, on a jamais l'impression de vraiment jouer mais d'être coincé dans un caddy de supermarché lancé à grande vitesse avec des dialogues écrits par la ménagère de moins de 50 ans.

    Même le bilan technique qui devrait être bon, voire très bon, ne l'est pas totalement... En effet, si on a la 4K à 60 im/s (sur la X), toutes les cinématiques semblent soit à 30, soit victimes de sévères ralentissements... Le jeu reste terne (à tous les égards d'ailleurs) et depuis cet abruti de Soldat Ryan, toutes les oeuvres "modernes" sur la WWII veulent nous faire croire que les vaillants soldats étaient daltoniens.

    Enfin, je ne comprends pas pourquoi ce retour sur la WWII qui commence à sentir le réchauffé... remarquez, parler de "réchauffé" à propos d'un Call of est un pléonasme doublé d'une lapalissade. On dit que la guerre est terrible et c'est vrai : terriblement ennuyeuse et percluse de rhumatismes comme ce Call of qui n'en peut plus : achevez-le et enterrez-le dans le désert, qu'on en parle plus !

    Balance is far and away the worst in the series
    DLC weapons are way too common (close to as many or more than Infinite Warfare during that game's entire cycle, and this game is 6 months in as of me posting this).
    You will unload on people and have them take 0 hits, multiple times a match
    You will be shot around corners
    The division system is complete trash when compared to Pic 10 and the classic system
    Maps are mostly bland, boring, samey, and generally terrible
    Spawns are laughable

    Yeah, I will under zero circumstances recommend this game to anybody. If you want a frustrating and overall crap experience, this is the game for you, even then, Ghosts will only cost you $15 so go for the miserable experience that actually works, not this pile of literal garbage.

I thought modern warfare 2 was too fast, but this is ridiculous. The game feels like a round of speedball with everyone on crack. Waaay too fast. waaaay too reliant on how fast you can get your sights on and pull the trigger than actual teamwork. Waaaay too easy to die and know exactly where your enemy is going after your death. There's things you begin to take for granted when you switch over to a game like battlefield - destructible environments, different classes that actually PLAY differently, vehicles, large maps, more team play... I could go on. The game feels like it caters to hormonal teenage boys.

    This game is very easy to hate. Very easy to laugh at. And for very good reason. I didn't buy the last 6 call of duty games before this and I will never buy another one after. I've learned my lesson.

Game physics are so poor or non existent weapons feel toyish and the pace of the game is just off for the ww2 setting maybe too fast. I am really dissapointed i feel sorry for sledgehammer cuz they put their best into it but again the games looks from last gen big time. Expand

    A streamlined multiplayer and less gimmicky single-player gives CoD a nice refresh.

    At its best it's a game of tactics for even the most casual player. [Issue#314, p.112]

    This is another fun, fleeting, exceptionally good-looking Call of Duty game, but its World War II theme doesn't add much besides bringing some of its mechanics back down to Earth.
