Today we talk about Cold War Zombies and the fact that despite it's great gameplay, it lacks any charm or intrigue in story or personality.

Thank you, floating forehead.
bricky do you eventually plan to go back to uploading daily?
Don't really play Zombies myself but I did enjoy the Dark Horse comics of it.
Great vid , been playing since waw , hardcore lvl 1000’s high rounds etc, I agree 100 % zombies is so lazy now to attract fortnite kids . It lacks the darkness , look how bright the new maps are . You can literally stand in a horde for 30 seconds zombies is ridiculously op and people still suuuuck , you can craft self revives
Thank you! I can deal with easy maps, but they need to give us 4 dedicated, fully voiced characters. Half, and I mean HALF, of the excitement of a new map for myself, was getting to hear the new dialogue from the player characters. They should make weaver, grey and the other to voice over handlers, what ever they are, as the people you play as. They may not be super interesting, but it's better than the mostly voiceless operators we have to use.
POV: Bricky has kidnapped you and starts ranting about zombies
To be honest... I wouldn't mind. In this case, I prefer "forced apprenticeship" rather than "kidnapped."
I'd enjoy his passionate rant
Finally. Someone know what POV means
I must have died and went to heaven

Title: ZERO personality
Bricky: It has 1 ounce of personality
Which one is it Bricky.

Jellyfish let’s fucking goooo
The biggest issue with Cold War Zombies is that all the interesting characters are the ones you aren't playing as
gotta shove them microtransactions down everybodys urethra
The only semi interesting one is Samantha. The Radio crew makes me wanna go to sleep.
@@lucas169 Weaver is cool though, Struss is just there, Grey is meh, and forgot the other name but he's kinda intelligent.
I’d disagree. Even the characters that have dialogue and aren’t playable are incredibly boring. Nacht had more personality than anything CW Zombies
@@OmegaRejectz Depressing to think about but true.
As a German, you are forgiven Bricky. Please speak more in german, its hilarious
except for Der Riese
@@serralsneko4733 Ich habe mich die ganze Zeit gefragt, was seine Aussprache davon heißen soll (bin kein CoD Spieler). Jetzt wo ich weiß tut es noch mehr weh... und ist noch lustiger.
As a fellow German we found this video funny and informative, keep at it Bricky!
Ja einfach witzig xD
yeah pleas i love it :D
Really my only complaint about it is the lack of unique characters or dialogue
They could have at least given the operators some unique lines for zombies when doing the different objectives or with the box, like the previous games
I totally agree there, I wish the operators would at least make comments about getting a nuke or instakill, or even after drinking a perk as instead it's just silence and I personally hate that.
@@tannereastman4832 they do have voice lines for zombies, some really cool ones too, esp with woods, park, the new op naga, ect
@@xurmaker were talking about talking about perk drinking power ups, or talking with each other. especially the opposing faction voice lines they could have had.
@@xurmaker I play Woods' and my friend plays Park, honestly they only have like three or four lines they constantly and repeatedly cycle through, although my fav for Woods is the "New world record for meatheads smoked!" line lol. Maxis, however, has some seemingly high amount of voice lines, I think I've only one heard one or two repeated (but I've only played two games of Zombies since I've gotten her). Still though, would be nice for the Operator's to react to the world around them, like mentioning things about Perk tastes, ammo count, etc.
I guess everyone just got used to how expressive the characters were in the past when interacting with nearly everything, since Black Ops 1 actually. It's just so jarring to take that away, y'know?
@@Dylan-xx2tk oh yeah, there is obviously vast room for improvement, and it can make the world feel a bit empty, but I was just pointing out that there is some effort being put down. I think what a lot of people are failing to realize this year is that treyarch had to cover sledgehammers ass and save the floor from under them because they failed to put out a functioning product. They had to rush a lot of the entirety of the game, and I think in that context (aside from being an unfinished 60 dollar game with egregious microtransactions) is doing very well considering. I hope they take the time to get with the voice actors and have them do some simple stuff for environments, perks, ammo ect. but I also wanted to point out some good they did. like dude, just the other day I was playing as the new operator Naga and he got pissed cause he almost died and he says "YOU'RE DAMN LUCKY IM HERE, WEAVER" like, shit like that is what made me fall in love with zombies in the first place, and it's good seeing effort put into it.
'Are we Rise of Skywalker now" is so fuckin accurate
so bad???
Rise Of Skywalker was abysmal, this game is "good"
@@thetruestar6348 More in terms that Personality is thrown out the window.
@@SilkKreep more in terms of "the action and fights are cool, but why they're happening is just references Nd nostalgia bait"
@@Lynch2507 I don't even remember any nostalgia bait in Rise of Skywalker.

@@EduardoSevero i wonder if nipnip actually ever saw bricky
HA
you guys need to
I actually was excited when Samantha came out of that dome. I thought maybe the story would actually start. Then I realized this is Activision and she's just a skin...
Samantha: "Sup, I'm relevant."
Activision: DON'T FORGET TO BUY THE MAXIS OPERATOR BUNDLE, COMING TWO WEEKS AFTER THE LAUNCH OF SEASON TWO!! AREN'T YOU GUYS EXCITED?!
however it is actually samatha from the ather story line
4 Samanthas saving samantha made me laugh for about 5 minutes
I mean, while multiplayer isnt canon, the dark aether storyline is just beginning, think that it took them almost a decade to make sense of the original aether storyline so yeah, Sam coming out of that dome is the beginning of the story :)
yeah its a mess now, they should have left samantha and all the other characters where they should have at the end of bo4 story
I have a friend that to this day only ever wants to play Kino and Ascension. He's been like that for YEARS
I like your friend
Option 1: Take Vlad Mahas side and take over the work by playing kino.
Option 2: Take Poops Poops side and leave kino behind for the better of humanity.

Perfectly valid opinion. Though however good the game plays, i personally would argue that Titanfall 2 is better
A fact applicable to any situation
I can agree. I need speed
A completely irrelevant yet accurate fact
It's numbers may not be as grand as they used to be, but much like Cadia. Titanfall 2 still stands
This is actually Pink Methman's secret account, innit?
Bricky, I haven’t played zombies since BO2, but man I just love hearing you talk with such passion about everything. I can tell you really care. It makes me remember all the late nights with friends before we all left college and started working full time. Thank you for bringing those memories back up for a bit.
^ should at leasy try bo3, its a banger of a game,
@@d4s0n282 Bo3 overall was shit, only zombies was good
@@boyeri3558 I mean, the only bad thing about bo3 was really the sp, but what cod game these days has a decent sp anyway lol
@@d4s0n282 The mp was also shit, microtransactions and advanced movement, good mp died after Bo2
@@boyeri3558 I mean, microtranactions were not that bad compared to a LOT of other games, plus it was just different guns, not much better or worse, and whats wrong about advanced movement lol, only problem with it is that its being overused, the ultimate thing was fucking awesome
Alright, let’s clear the story part up. Nikolai kills everyone, we know that, he destroys the multiverse and makes a new singular universe that ends up as the campaigns but with zombie outbreaks.
And the samantha at the end of Tag Der Toten is the same one as in Cold War I thought that was obvious
Yeah the story does make sense, my issue is how GODDAMN BORING IT IS. (Obviously this is all my opinion) There are 0 fun or interesting characters, the only one that resembles sortve interesting is Sam and she is just as generic as the rest. Like cool she gets tossed into the dark aether and has the boys' stuff. She's just as much of "random military/scientist guy" as the rest, which is literally every singular character in this game. The coolest character we've gotten so far is FREAKING ORLOV! Just because he had a little emotional depth and redemption with his family and his sacrifice. The game is appealing to the larger COD community and it seems to be at the cost of some zombie vets, whether it ends up working for them I can't say but it sucks to see.
@@calumbarry1829 I get that, but remember we only have two maps and they added many more operator lines than there were at launch. This set things up, you know everyone, now they can expand upon them in the future maps. I suggest you be a bit patient and if it doesn’t get better, I’ll be complaining too.
@@StimmBehr I can appreciate your optimism but I don't think it's anywhere near likely. Yeah I agree that maybe Weaver and Sam will get a little more personality but the rest will be left to dry, especially the operators. There extra lines are just "wall buy here, found speed cola, heavy enemy there" they won't get anything. If my character has no weight in the story other then being a mere vessel then I cant put myself into the game. Just imagine the story of bo3 where you hunt down the old ultimus characters, but instead it's just faceless operators. The Firebase Z cutscene is the perfect example, it's literally just GTA Online. They just sit by a helicopter or jump in a truck. I do have hope that by the next game it'll be better, but this games systems just won't allow what we're both hoping for.
@@calumbarry1829 I don’t expect the ops to get characterization, just more lines. It’s pretty clear thought they’re setting up making Maxis, Weaver and the comm people way cooler.
Black Ops 3 to me felt like the last 'traditional' zombies experience, and the map variety means I always have it installed. I love Cold war zombies though, the gameplay and progression is great
I agree, but if zombies continues like this and dont give any personality, it feels for me the last zombie game that gave me that amazing personality and all would be black ops 4, like some of those maps are insanely good, although their mecanic was wildly different
I hqvent been able to play COD since launch because it constantly crashes on me.
Ive had the same problem with blops 4 but not cold war
@deminator 32 Bo1 zombies is incredibly easy and simple compared to everything after BO2.
@deminator 32 those are things that no one else has ever said
"Was I supposed to make Planters self-conscious with the sheer amount of nut"
yes, and then pay $20 to play as her.
You can actually get more perks on origins without gobblegums all you need is a golden shovel and a zombie blood
@Source Dasher maybe 1 hour on origins
Ok? They haven’t released all the perks yet lol, so whats your point
@@kingatl4036 uhh yeah. I know. My point still stands.
@@kingatl4036 I said they haven’t released all the perks yet, Obviously I’m talking about cold war. Why would you even think I was talking about an older game when I mentioned the perks not being released YET?
I fucked up thinking he meant origins has more perks then cold war does, But yeah man of course when I mention the perks not all being released I was talking about the current game.
I agree with beatle, sry atl
2:23
You good. I hereby grant you the "German pronunciation" pass.
I nutted when he said "Kino der Toten"
Treyarch during BO4: “Ok guys, let’s focus entirely on story”
Treyarch during Cold War: “Ok so focusing on story didn’t work guys so, let’s focus on Gameplay in general.”
Verdict: You can’t focus on one part and leave the other one as after thought. You have to have a balance between Good gameplay and Good story. Excellent gameplay with bad story will only keep you playing for so long. On the other hand, too much focus on Story with weak gameplay won’t keep you playing either.
Well, BO4 was better than CW in both Gameplay and Story, soo…
They cared in making zombies a nice enjoyable experience for everyone, even someone who hasnt played zombies ever. Probably to attract people an extra inch to buy CW, however since zombies maps are free once you have the game, they didnt care in adding to much depth, since they are no selling dlc´s IMO.
I'd agree with that sentiment but personally I'd say they sorta failed in that attempt and it isn't really their fault because it was inevitable. It's tough to try and appease both ends of the audience, that's being seen a little with zombie veterans not loving this game. (By veterans I don't mean youtubers and stuff because those guys shill everything Treyarch on the planet until everyone else dislikes it, then they'll hate on it, take bo4 for example.) I do hope it ends up working for them, I just hope they don't end up abandoning the roots and focusing entirely on this new player base because it seems to be going in that direction.
@@calumbarry1829 So yeah... 2 years later in retrospect
Cold War had a lot of potential but Outbreak managed to divert resources from round based to outbreak and it caused Activision to want more zombie content for more money so they brought Treyarch in for Vanguard and now Modern Warfare 333...
The story Treyarch set up at the end for Cold War was a pretty decent prolouge but how tf are they supposed to actually start off strong if Activision keeps diverting them to other games as well...
I just hope that this 4 year development is gonna be enough and that those other projects aren't gonna stop them from making actually good zombies in their own game
This is so true, I kept playing CW zombies and I kept wondering why was this game so... Bland, like the characters we play are stone-cold killers with a teaspoon of personality that are killing already dead people, Treyarch making zombies more simple for new players is what made it different from it's predecessor.
As a big fan of Cold War zombies because of how accesible it made zombies feel. I would really like if they were to do a zombies chronicles expansion onto the Cold War system. I think that would include the great stories and maps from the previous games onto the great gameplay experience that Cold War had to offer. I’m hoping they arch ends up doing this but with the way activision is heading right now who knows.
i think the reason this game has no personality is that there’s no “crew” we got used to the likes of primis ultimus victus the chaos crew the mob crew and the shadows crew that there were a set 4 characters that had their own specific personalities and storylines unlike cold wars operators. it’s very difficult to give every single operator a specific personality since like before the personalities affected the story line that’s why i think treyarch didn’t put much in the personality trait in the operators
No music, no challenge, no atmosphere, bland and ugly maps, no weapon feels bad and many feel the same, nothing is special. It's not just the operators.
“The operators voice lines so blank and boring in Cold War zombies”
“Me who plays woods knowing he has a potty mouth of a personality”
*”DROP IT DOUCHEBAG BEFORE I DROP YOUUU”*
Woods really is the only one with the most personality out of the rest of the operators. To bad he's tied to multiplayer.
@@TokyD0069 Yeah. It really does suck. So far I've tried Park, Adler, the two default ones, and that one sniper dude. They all feel almost the same, with different VAs. At least in my opinion.
@@plutosmash6068 "I'M A GODDAMN ONION MASON"
@@NyxTheNerd I unlocked him and mostly only ever play as him and just recently started playing as Maxis
I know people have been pulling the “it was made during a pandemic” and “they switched studios” cards for this game but I think the lack of personality in zombies is a perfect example of how that affected the development. Hopefully they can correct ship in the future as Activision is seeming to push to make zombies a whole separate experience like Warzone.
That's trash. They made it like that to bad players and noobs like it. For real zombies players Cold War is filth.
this is so well explained, i agree with everythig. coldwar is a bit bland and boring when it comes to personality.
A bit?
@@gurkensohn9401 VERY BLAND.
I feel like if they were to make new characters, even if they aren’t written well, it would be a better experience overall.
I've never seen anyone prefer the operator system. Not one. I would take the Victis crew, I would take the chaos crew, I'd take the exo zombies crew, hell I'd even take a squad of 4 JACKIE FUCKIN VINCENT'S over this mess.
@@calumbarry1829 i dont prefer it, but i don't hate it. I dont mind having no set crew. The way the story has been set up makes sense as to why there isnt a set team.
My only problem is that they don't interact enough. They have absolutely NO conversational quotes. With Alpha Omega, they did over 10,000 lines for the 8 characters. It shows that Treyarch can go to such lengths but they cant be asked to put the money into it.
@@Nekiplex Yeah there are plenty who don't hate it, just doesn't seem to be anyone who prefers it. The thing about this system is they will literally never interact enough, don't hold out hope they'll do it later because they fundamentally cannot, use Alpha Omegas 10000 lines for example, obviously that was a RIDICULOUS amount. It was great to have and by no means the status quo but it's an example. These lines were split into 4 different voice actors, meaning 2500 for each. If you wanted this interaction in cold war, that would need to be 10000 lines for every voice actor they have and will ever have. (obviously I know that's not what you're asking for, just more then 10 would be nice) but you get my point. If they added in characters saying quotes during egg moments or something like that then every single operator would have to record that line. That's why I hate this system, the feign that it's freedom to choose who you want to play when it's really just stealing any soul from the characters. I mean who tf cares who you're playing as seeing as they're the exact same?
@@calumbarry1829 I actually would prefer the operator system if they were more fleshed out.
@@FlippyisSlippy thing is they can't be, if you want to do a system like this you can't flesh it out because of the sheer workload you would have on your hands. Every voiceline has to be recorded by at least 20 different people right now and every operator they'll ever add. It's either what they're doing right now or the classic crew system.
wait until you see vanguard

My god thank you for saying everything I've been thinking since release.
I KNOW RIGHT, nobody's acknowledging it and it's so annoying becouse now they won't change anything and all future zombie games might be as bland as this one

@@speakeroftheemojis8081 nobody lol, this was basically the main topic when the game launched on reddit and everywhere
@@ayywasup3958 I'm more so talking about youtubers who have the main influence over the community, my bad I should have said that
@@ayywasup3958 Are you braindead? Look at any social media platform. Nobody is allowed to dislike Cold War on Treyarch's pages. This game is trash.
The only real COD Zombies map I really remember actually playing was Origins. As a kid (yes I am young enough to say that) my cousins and me would load up on Origins and just screw around. My favorite part of the map was the Giant Robots stomping around and we would trick each other into walking into their footprints and dying.
This vid is so spot on, I always rant about this to my friends whenever we decide play zombies Cold War zombies, hope they add characters in the future or at least add more depth to the setting/theme
Imagine being able to play zombies as Reagan.

Yeah men, you explained it all perfecly, cw zombies it feels so empty and generic, i wish they bring back to zombies that essence and personality that zombies had before, maybe this can happen in that rumored Standalone Call of Duty Zombies.

4:28 *Golden Shovel has left the chat*
Hey thanks for reminding me of the short but sweet 6 month period when I was 14 where all I did was play Black Ops 2 Zombies for hours and days on end. Gonna go listen to Shepherd of Fire for 8 hours.
My friends and i started playing zombies 13 years ago. We had a game called Beer Zombies (we were military aka alcoholics) where ever round you drink that many shots of beer. So after round 12 we would chug an entire beer. By game 2 we were gone. But it made us SUPER GREAT at zombies. Just reminiscing about good crazy zombie times.
Kinda loving the in-depth history of these maps that you hint at. Would love to watch more videos like that, where you go deep on some history of games that most people don't really know.
5:00 I remember when BO3 was ridiculed for being too complicated, and now its generally considered to be the best zombies experience lol
Cold war isn't a reboot
I never got into zombies the way some of my friends did and you lost me a bit in some parts-- (terms, character names) but you talk about this topic so concisely and passionately that I watched the entire video. I know when Bricky uploads its gonna be good
Honestly when I saw the trailer for zombies I thought it would be a bit more horror based.
Like, you're a Soviet soldier armed with a rifle and a flashlight attached to it, and you enter down into what could only be described as a horrifying hellhole.
And yet what we got is a colorful arcade game. Not what I was expecting, personally. - Just feels like lost potential to do something unique or different. Seriously imagine that sort of zombies for a second. Pretty dark wherever you're at and you're armed with a rifle you probably don't even want to use but are stuck with it, and you have a flashlight being one of your only light sources.
Could argue it's too big a gamble. But zombies feels... Stale. Being arcady and all that.
Holy shit agreed, i was just thinking about how disappointed i was with zombies and when i truly thought about it it came down to atmosphere and personality alone.
I was literally thinking about this the other day although the gameplay works super well the maps just have no soul which is ironic considering it’s a game about resurrected souls
13:37 if you watch the giant cutscene carefully you notice Primis Richtofen doesn’t actually collect the soul from Ultimis Richtofen. Eddie is already in the house at this part of the story and his soul comes from an innocent child version from dimension 2210. Primis Richtofen ruthlessly executed his Ultimis self because he had already betrayed and killed his innocent orphan self to collect the soul.
I found you're channel from this video and I've been hooked on it since
Personality is seen as dangerous for corporations these days.
this hit the nail on the head with how i feel about CW zombies. bo3 zombies almost felt like a completely different game
Great video! I completely agree with everything you said. But I just like to point out that the story isn’t a reboot but it continues on from where BO4 left off. After Nikolai sacrificed his life and the crew to destroy all off the dimensions and fractured universes, a singular universe was created which Samantha and Eddie walked through. That new universe is where Cold War Zombies continues the story.
I really appreciate the passion and care that went into writing this video, I agree with just about everything said.
When going over the posive changes, I'm surprised you hadn't mentioned more specifically PaP, AAT and more importantly being able to mantle. I think that one is such a massive positive change for overall enjoyment of going around the map.
But yeah, definitely earned a sub. 😊
I can’t lie even transit can be fun as hell
I enjoyed it I just didn't like the fog
I don't mind the idea of zo bie monies jumping on my face if I go into a certain area and lava slowing me down in this areas but the fog was a little annoying and the fire near jug was also annoying too it didn't feel like it added to the game
I literally made a video about this by comparing Die Maschine on release against SOE three months ago, would love to know your thoughts on the video because I feel like we covered VERY similar topics!!! So glad a big content creator is able to talk about this because it is exactly what I thought about the game too
When I saw this video's title, first thing I thought of was the characters we play as BO4 and back. I miss playing as them and hearing their voice lines
Never knew bricky was a old school zombies fan. Good to have you in the team my guy!
Damn I really agree with 95% of what you said. Very well put together video. It's ironic that this follows the Apex video because personality is exactly what Apex does so well. Hopefully the standalone zombies game in the future will bring back the same magic that was BO2/3 zombies
The characters were half of the fun in zombies, so yeah having operators as playable characters is just dog shit in comparison
I think you're right on the money with alot of points my guy, the only thing I'd say is. They're finding their footing on what will work, especially after the disaster during the black ops 4 season, it's nice to start over with small and work our way back to crazy. Although, the maps do need more personality past, "Base", and "Vietnam Base". If they can get Tranzit right, then imma fall in love with this mode all over again
You can actually get extra perks in origins, if you have the golden shovel and zombie blood there are super rare glowing dig spots that have special spawns that when dug up give you an extra perk slot.
The Dead of the night crew is so underrated ffs, they have such a good chemistry
totally, it was really enjoyable playing that 2nd crew imo
Dead of the night gets way t o much shit, the mini bosses were annoying at launch but were fixed quickly yet everyone still brings them up. And everyone's shutting on the crews annoying dialogue yet no one mentions the annoying random people on cold war who hav ed a giant pitchure taking up the screen and repea tg the same lines every game every time you turn on power, pack a punch, mini bosses, wonder weapon I mean it's so much worse than dead of the night
@@speakeroftheemojis8081 Dead of the Night isn’t a bad map . It suffers because it is on Bo4 . The Bo4 engine ruins it and most of the maps in Bo4 .
@@incognitoman4066 bo4 engine is good man, probably one of the best, the perk system was great
@@ErensSmiledog Choosing a perk doesn’t really matter anymore since they all are kinda bland and not that useful . There is no progression since you start off with 200 health and a OP specialist . The HUD is terrible , unnecessary changes were made like the points system , the way zombies move , perks . Also the graphics look worse than BO3 . Then again it is all my opinion so feel free to disagree with me . (Except for the BO3 graphics being better than BO4 , that’s a fact )

Congrats for getting featured on the lex variety channel, love the video
Hey Bricky, have you ever considered to upload your "Videos" as podcasts on spotify or smth? The length and content is just perfect to listen to in the background and I would totally enjoy them as a form of video and as an "audio book". Hope you read this comment, great video as always 👌
This video summed up my thoughts on cold war exactly! You are 100 percent correct, they need to bring back some actual talking characters into this game or honestly we could be looking at the worst zombies experience yet!
My main complaints are that it’s just too easy and the maps are bland. The maps taking place during the day kills the vibe of the maps as well. The gameplay is fun enough, but it just gets boring. The lack of maps hurts as well.
Completly agree, just re installed to try it out and died of boredom in 5 min. Feels like there is no purpose and Its so easy you can do basicaly whatever and not think about what you re doing, Its braindead
You be suprised how many people get double digit downs by round 20
AMAZING video. Nice points and it was honestly very great to watch someone talking about zombies with this much depth
Actually, there was a Treyarch Dev comment on why they made the easter eggs so much easier. Apparently, prior to Cold War Zombies, only ~2% of players actually did them, so they just figured it'd be better to invest in other areas rather than make an overly elaborate easter egg.
With the exception of the easter eggs being too short, I agree with everything you said.
Oh I've been looking forward to this
Yeah, I agree with that. Especially when the new zombies mode just reuses stuff from past games to make you go "wow! I remember that!"
God I fucking love all of these new Bricky Videos.
You’re entering the realm of the greats, my man.
Keep up the good work. It’s probably really tough, but man, the quality is there.
I absolutely love the gameplay changes and would love to see them port over all the old maps.
as for new future maps, i can see what your saying, it almost went to realistic in tone.
17:40 i got chills when you started talking about the starting point in each of the best maps zombies has to offer. It's amazing to see someone with the same passion as me towards this game and i completely agree with you. The end of an era
This kinda reminds me of Borderlands 3, Zombies is flawed in similar fashion. It's the kind of flawed that leaves you empty, if not a little irritated, instead of making you want more...
I'd like to see him dig into that if he hasn't already.
The cold war zombies story is a continuation of Bo4. Essentially after Tag der Toten Nikolia destroyed the multiverse and sent everything to the dark aether (the place with the jellyfish in die maschine) and now there is a single universe in which Eddy (young Richthofen) and Samantha exist in as you see them walk to the light at the end of the Tag egg, the light being the new universe cleansed from the dark aether. But in Cold War, the Dark Aether has begun to leak into our world. Think of the dark aether as the upside-down from stranger thing, same universe different dimension in that universe.
Jesus Bricky all of the uploads lately man glad to see more of ya you big legend
One thing that I love about bricky is that he feels like that other nerd friend that like the same stuff as you instead of a content creator. I dont even care about COD and i loved the video
My personal honest opinion but I felt like Shadows of Evil should've gotten a Tommy Gun instead of the Sten but oh well other than that SOE is good
Great info! Really love hearing honesty from a long term zombies fan. Earned my sub!
"not gonna do my normal thesis into several points just gonna talk..." Bricky you hit us with a thesis right after this my guy.
About the reboot bricky I'm pretty sure it's not since they said the games between 1 and 2
Talking about too many special zombies play high rounds on outbreak
Well at least they have counters to them and can be worked around but the megaton spam can get annoying
@@kylelegarvier172 Seems like your special weapon in BO4 is bugged then.
Use to do the staffs on my own on Origins when I didn't have internet at the time. Probably my favorite map tbh
For some reason I have never stumbled across your content. 12/10 have a sub. Also the Plantars nuts line had me rolling
The way he summed up Cold War zombies was perfect. Treyarch needs to see this video because they really think Cold War zombies is so bad ass but in reality there’s somethings just missing, and this guys explains exactly what’s missing.
It's endless fun, Mauer der Toten best map.
My brother had a panic attack from hell hounds..
Good times.
13:29 aah yes BO3 zombies' Primus crew. I loved playing as Les Claypool killing zombies with my funky bass lines lol
Die Rise worst map? :( that was one of my favorites lmao
I'm not a diehard zombies guy, at all
Been playing for a more than a decade now and Die Rise was a really fun map . I never got the massive hate for it .
@@smugplush Your speaking straight facts . I honestly used to be one of those guys that shitted on Transit 6 years because TSP shitted on it and after thinking about it , Transit isn’t as bad as everyone says it is , it can be a fun map . It’s all about the bandwagon .
@@smugplush I don't think so, tranzit and die rise are bad maps by default. Tranzit has the annoying fog, denizens, avogrado, shitty power, shitty layout, with terrible pace. Die rise is the same, a map where you can die more to fall damage than zombies is itself a big problem. Just look at the other maps and you will see that both of these maps just sucks ass
Lol whatever at the end of they day its a mini game never forget that.
it isn’t a mini game anymore. it hasn’t been for years.
Minigame with it's own dedicated DLC, community, collectors edition, 2 comic book series and still making millions of views on yt after having been around since 2008. Yeah it's just a ''Minigame''
@@lucas169 yeah
You had me at the "This video is sponsored...by me!". I feel so easy to please these days.
Anyway, good stuff!
Something people forget to mention when talking about shadows launch is that it was patched a lot to make the start up better, rutuals were made shorter and the parts were given a shared inventory when in the beginning the rituals took forever and if you could only hold one part at a time so it required so much running around between parts and minute long rituals
Get trapped in a corner, specialist abilty, wait or chopper gunner, wait or cruise missle, wait or infinite self revives, wait or... ITS TOO EASY THIS YEAR. I've got a wall in my room dedicated to zombies, and been playing sine Nacht in WaW but Cold War is just not good
God I do every thing he said and memerized every route and endgame areas is this bad?
really loved the video bricc, as a long time zombie fan, this was an awesome watch
honestly the fact i can actually connect to a match and play a game and not lag out at round 28 means Cold War is 10000000x better than any other COD over released. plus there is progression which is amazing and we need more of that.
For anyone wondering ive played on both Xbox, and playstation as well as PC. Ive been on PC for about 6 years now and COD 4 still has connection issues the entire time the game was out. either i couldnt connect or one of my friend couldnt connect. Or we would connect only to have the game crash round 20-30. I have been playing since WaW and own every DLC. I refused to get cold war until my friend showed me it wasnt a lagged pile of crap. You can argue all day long that the old maps were better but it will never change my mind as i spent about an hr every day for over 10 years trying to get my friends all connected only to have the game crash. If you have every heard of 'port forwarding' then you know my pain. those maps may have been good but i was hardly every able to play them due to the sheer dog crap servers COD had zombies setup on.
Him not understanding the timeline when talking about the story was my only issue cause he clearly kept taking different bits of the story and mashing them together when the story is quite clear
Thank you. It's not a bloody reboot, in fact, he's overcomplicating the story, when they're making simpler. Although I agree that the operators are a shitty idea. But I think it's temporary, when the story gets really going, they'll make a crew with Samantha and some other three guys. Siento haberte contado mi vida sin que me preguntaras...
Hot take, cold wars more realistic practical, mission based story was cool because it was more believable. But I agree on the playable character point. I really wish the playables were more interesting.
Bricky talking about the stuff you can do in Origins made me think "Wow... that sounds incredibly overloaded and not fun"
Yeah but it's completely optional, if you want you can just turn on power and pack a punch which is easy
6 month foreshadowing of the Art Direction video ... love you Bricky xD
