    I was actually quite a fan of Infinite Warfare and I found it to be a pleasant change in the Call of Duty series, but at times I must admit that it did miss a certain something.

Thankfully Call of Duty: WWII brings that certain something back to the series and I must admit that this is one of the best Call of Duty’s I’ve played in years. The boots on ground combat is back and it’s addictive as ever and the main reason for that is because it’s exciting throughout. Another reason why it’s so enjoyable is because of the improved gunplay, which I found to be more precise and responsive than it was in Infinite Warfare. Without a doubt this game is packed to the brim with content and they’ve even included some new modes, which by the way are brilliant and a great addition to the franchise. Multiplayer also has a lot of content and once again it’s addictive as ever, and the best thing is that I’ve suffered with no problems online to date. If you’re not a massive fan of multiplayer then you will be pleased to know that the game offers you a very good single player campaign. The campaign has been done really well and it really gives you an insight into some of the events that happened in WWII, I will say however that I would have liked a bit more variety when it came to the missions. The presentation side of the game is absolutely fantastic. Visually the game looks superb the whole way through and the voice actors really made the game even more of an immersive and enjoyable experience. At the end of the day fans of the Call of Duty series will be extremely pleased with the new addition to the genre, and I must applaud the amount of effort that has gone into Call of Duty: WWII. Without a doubt it’s clear that the developers/publishers have listened to fans of the series and tried to improve every key area, and the best thing is that these improvements have created one of the best Call of Duty game’s in years. Call of Duty: WWII has in my opinion made the series relevant again and I can’t recommend it enough. Expand

These maps are disastrous, so small i dont even understand why they include scope snipers. 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

    Who cares about campaign? I don't. It might be good or not. We buy COD because we get to play the online multiplayer. Which seems to be awesome this time. No more jetpacking, no more people flying in the sky. But there is a caveat: Matchmaking is not functional. That's it. Totally bugged.

    After the sophistication of previous games the recent WW2 is a significant disappointment. Restricted playing field, less than believable characters and generally second rate graphics. Also, way too short for the price.

    The setting is "new" but it's still a modern CoD. The campaign is actually much better than the last games but the multiplayer is still not classic CoD. This doesn't have to be a bad thing if you like it but the developers always said "classic CoD" so I expected it and was disappointed.

    Quick summary: The game is a bug-ridden disaster almost 2 weeks after launch. HQ, one of the main selling points of the game, is still disabled. The lobbies are very unstable, and you will constantly have to back out and close the app when your party gets separated. Zombies is fun if that is your thing, as it is very similar to past installments. And lastly campaign, is very forgettable.Quick summary: The game is a bug-ridden disaster almost 2 weeks after launch. HQ, one of the main selling points of the game, is still disabled.

Zombies is fun if that is your thing, as it is very similar to past installments. And lastly campaign, is very forgettable. The epic scale and theater of war in WW2 is nowhere found as there are essentially 4 main characters that you don't care about. You go from shooting gallery to shooting gallery only for it to just.... end.

    I was gonna write a more in depth review, but I dont think the game deserves it in its current state. Multiplayer is in shambles. As I mentioned above, playing with friends is broken. Lag compensation is broken, making firefights just a dice roll more than anything else. Only 9 maps?! The game in general is lacking any sort of polish or thought and the whole came gives off a strong vibe that it was rushed out the door. I don't believe for a second that this is what 3 years of development produces. Between the broken UI, and the broken netcode, this game is an insult to any CoD multiplayer fan. Just wait till Black Friday, or wait another few months until patches come out to make this even remotely resemble a $60 game.

It literally is the gold standard. A near perfect system. Yet leave it to sledgehammer to kill a good thing. Why can't I put a suppressor on my AR? It makes no sense. And why when I pick a gun up that a guy was using that had a suppressor on it does it magically not have the suppressor anymore? You can no longer have stock and ghost on the same class because of this archaic system. To further that, why is stock a perk and not a gun attachment...There are so so many things wrong with this game. No dedicated servers, terrible connectivity, slowest gameplays ever. They reduced the TDM to 75 kills and still it's rare to get 75 kills in a match. Huge huge miss by activision and sledgehammer on this one. Expand

    This game has everything wrong with it that Call of Duty has had wrong with it since 2007, the difference is, it was acceptable then, but technology has moved on.

    The story is targeted entirely at the American audience and as a result entirely re-writes history and is grossly inaccurate almost to the point of being offensive - certainly so to anyone that actually fought in the war, what few of them there are left in the world for Activision to massively insult by writing their contribution out of history.

    Thus even outside of the non-working servers, the dated gameplay, the abysmal AI, the obscure fluctuations in difficulty, there is a fundamental problem in that even the single player storyline just isn't engaging simply because it's a load of functional nonsense passed off as fact.

    Activision could learn a lot from EA, whilst Battlefield 1 wasn't overly historically accurate in terms of weaponry, it's focus on the disparate storylines across the War was incredibly respectful to the countless sides who fought in it, which is far better than this insult that Activision have produced.

    This is a game from a different era, outdated technology, outdated gameplay, and outdated American exceptionalism that's well past it's sell-by date.

Has the franchise been bought enough to vitiate the original game into a political football for people who can't help themselves? Are you that bloody minded to put your politics supraordinate to the heart of a game, which is gaming, to the point where the game sucks? Here we also have historical rewriting to be more PC across the board. The Nazis made no bones about enslaving and killing off the Untermensch, with nazi peasant soldiers each allocated 120 hectares of the conquered lands in Generalplanost. Their blood and soul ethos. You won't see it here in this fanciful PC schmaltz hoping for end user$$$. Equally, the Jewish Bolsheviks fomented civil discord in a hellish way in Germany and not only Germany. The Germans had their strong views and so did the Jewish Marxists of the Soviet Nomenklatura and Comintern. Full on war was the outcome. As for us, good gaming was always irreverent and above all about gaming, amplifying these historical absurdities, not cucking, no kowtow. Amplifying! It needs to said three times. Games are about gaming, ie competition, which is totally nonPC! This is another example of sequels in the ever more oppressive framework we all live in. What a shame. Looks like the only highlights this year are racing games. Hope RDR doesn't take a turn to the left, but not holding my breath after "that" scene in zombie mode. Too much time spent on perfecting PC and much less on the game itself, as per other reviews. So sad as I was really looking forward to this, after playing the first COD and all of them before the rubbish futurist ones. Expand

    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 dont 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.

    DONT BUY THIS. LETS CHANGE THE INDUSTRY WE LOVE. VOTE WITH YOUR WALLET.

    Basically, this COD was meant to be a nod to the games of old with a bs tagline of "Get your old squad back together". Well, I did, and while some think the game is passable and others would give this a zero, 4 is where I stand. I have played the series since Call of Duty 2 on Xbox 360 back in 05, and I believe I have just grown tired of the same formula, on top of the fact that this game is absolutely horrible. My review is more focused on the Multiplayer as it is the primary focus.

    Positives:

    - Campaign is great looking and very cinematic
    - WWII setting is nice to see again in both SP & MP
    - Headquarters setup for pre-game is a unique touch and offers some variety
    - Boots on the ground, no robots and jetpacks

    Negatives (Primarily in MP):

    - Cinematic campaigns do not equal fun
    - Nothing we have not seen before
    - Abysmal map design (3 main lanes, funnelled into the middle)
    - SMG focused CQB combat, not much variety for battles
    - No bolt action rifles without a scope? In a WWII based game? Is this a joke? (For Multiplayer)
    - Micro-transaction push with useless loot crates (near ubiquitous these days)
    - Forget about team focused gameplay (war mode is not as good as promised)
    - Spawning and spawn zones don't flip as much as they should, too easy to trap or be trapped
    - Forced perk system (divisions), does not allow you to mix and match perks to your liking as easily as previous entries

    Not even gonna bother commenting on nazi zombies since it really does not change much and is usually pretty consistent in its ability to create chaotic fun and endless nights with friends. I am sure it does its job properly as its standalone mode, which I would technically deem a positive.

    This game feels way too much like a re-skin, and less like a new and innovative AAA product (Yes, I know I should never expect COD and innovation to be mentioned in the same sentence nowadays). Alongside this, I have to mention that the servers for this game have been terrible as well, I did not want to mention it in the negatives as I am sure that it will be corrected soon.

    Also, for the love of gaming, I do not know why Swastikas have to be removed from a game that is being released outside of Germany? It was part of WWII, gaming is not a place for sensitive SJWs to modify every aspect to their liking. The soldier configurations and officers fall in this category as well. A black woman on the front lines for the reich? Stop. Historical accuracy is important for these types of games IMO, and as great looking as the campaign may be, why are german soldiers wielding PPSH (Russian) sub machine guns in D-Day bunkers? The social justice aspect has become so intrusive in video games that its sad. I do not care who it offends, this has to be part of the review. If you want a fake and dishonest review about these games, go watch your favourite YouTuber or check your favourite game review site who both get paid to say good things about the product. AAA products are dying in the quality department with things like this and micro-transactions and nobody says or does anything about it.

    Overall, you just cannot find enough positive things in this game to truly override the negatives, and for that reason, I end up giving this game a 4 or 40%, because while it is nice to see a return to boots on the ground and a WWII setting, the abysmal map design, exceptionally poor balancing, toxic community, lack of weaponry, and bad game mechanics just make this game a disaster that is relying on hype for a return to the old style of COD many of us miss. Take a pass on this one, those days are long gone.

Every single time I win a game of Capture the Flag, it kicks me out and doesn't award me with any EXP or the win towards the order. Though, if I lose the game, it will count.

    As an Australian it is now 57 hours since I purchased this game. I can't play online at all with a fibre connection. I will not praise a single player campaign of 5 hours, that standard should've never become acceptable. I have stayed away from CoD for a while, returning with high hopes. I'll try and get a refund today.

    This game needs to be fixed asap. The PVP is just unbalanced. There is no other work for it. This game sucks in its current build. Please fix it. Please.....I want this game to be good so bad. My K/D is a 0.78 and it is 100% from how bad this game performs.

    And dont even gir me stsrted on the terrible spawn points. COD has had bad spawn poij issues for years....but this takes the cake. I've watched enemies appear dead in front of me out of thin air and kill me. (They dont appear on the ground, they fall from about 7 feet up and shoot you). Real hard to shoot people who appear right in front of you unkess you have suoer human reflexes.

    The only reason this is getting such a high score is because Activision PAID for the good reviews. Notice the majority of actual user reviews are negative but the review site reviews are positive? Yeah.....goes to show you how unreliable paid reviewers are. Don't listen to that stuff......this game is a 1, at best...and thats just because I like the timeline and the guns...

    This is the first CoD game I've purchased in years and I'm happy with the purchase.

    Pros: Really enjoying the WWII campaign and story. The MP is a lot of fun with a variety of modes. War mode is especially fun. The graphics, sound and feel of the game are of great quality. Cons: With only 9 MP maps and 3 War mode maps it leaves a lot to be desired with map variety for a base
    This is the first CoD game I've purchased in years and I'm happy with the purchase.

    Pros:

    Really enjoying the WWII campaign and story. The MP is a lot of fun with a variety of modes. War mode is especially fun. The graphics, sound and feel of the game are of great quality.

    Cons:

    With only 9 MP maps and 3 War mode maps it leaves a lot to be desired with map variety for a base game. Would have been better to have 14 or so maps for MP and 6 or so for War mode. Never been a huge Zombies fan of any of the CoDs so I can't comment on that since it wouldn't be specific to this game.

    Overall Impression:

    Solid, super fun game. If you like boots-on-the-ground CoD then this game is a pleasant return to CoDs roots. The MP is really fun and enjoyable. Divisions is a welcome addition creating additional variety. Overall really well pleased with this imperfect game. Hopefully they continue to make QoL improvements throughout its lifespan.

    Putting aside that multiplayer doesn't even work. Tried many times. Game has many many problems. I gave it 2/10, because the cinematic is pretty cool. Gameplay is **** in campaign. 80% of the time you can barely see the enemy you're killing(so what's the point?). The other 20% they run up and kill you without you seeing them. One shot. The entire game you're squinting down an iron sightPutting aside that multiplayer doesn't even work. Tried many times. Game has many many problems.

It's like the most beautiful cinematic piece of **** phone app game. I don't know about multiplayer because I can't join. But judging from campaign, it's **** I've yet to see a good Activision game, personally, not sure how they keep getting contracts to create games. Sledgehammer, what, has a b or c rated xbox original game that hardly anyone plays? The gameplay is **** the story is way oversold by the company and it's bought for critics. They make it out to be like some Private Ryan movie, not even close. It's just another video game story with some cool cinematic scenes in between garbage gameplay. This was the first game I ever pre-bought, and the last. I'm a big call of duty fan, missed the last couple, all advanced stuff, but **** off. This is not some groundbreaking new stuff they claimed it to be. It's the same old garbage. Expand

    The worst game of COD franchises ever.
    Nothing does work well. The soldier class builder is horroble.
    I do not know what they did, the IW was great, they could use a similar mechanic. Poor game, with the exception of graphics, everything else sucks.

    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.
