Because it’s the newest cod so it’s hated. Cod cycle, nothing new. In a couple of years (or less) it will become an underrated gem. Happens every year...
Why do you hate getting to develop your own character? Bell has a character, they can be whoever you want them to be, and can have a different personality in every playthrough. I'd rather be given the freedom to make Bell whoever, a mindless but courageous American, or an intelligent and cautious Russian spy. Though I am an RPG guy, so I'm probably biased.
I love how much they’ve changed and improved the multiplayer. It launched half-baked asfk. Missing several mechanics and features, and the core gameplay loop wasn’t really rewarding. But now it feels like a perfect combination of what I liked in MW2019, Black Ops, and Black Ops 2, with a great 80’s spin. It definitely has its own unique vibe and I love it.
I stuck with this game thru it's whole lifecycle. It was a good time. I unlocked everything in the battle passes and events. Got every music pack. And just enjoying the game in it's entirety was fun
Cold War is the best cod since bo2 for me personally, I loved this game and my only real problems with the game was the sbmm and how easy zombies is, otherwise this game is great. top 3 cod for me
My favorite game of 2019, 2020, and 2021. A cultural reset and industry masterpiece. I have never been happier playing a video game. Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War is the pinnacle of Treyarch’s developmental enterprise and the best FPS title to date. …. I need therapy
Best cod since bo2 easily imo. Best cod gameplay. Best looking game (visuals+fidelity together) Great maps overall especially dlcs Amazing campaign Very fun zombies
I loved the campaign and mp story loved the streak system and the maps are the absolute best in this game. God tier new maps and really good combined arms maps fire team maps and the remasterd maps they brought back like drive in and raid. Love cold war
Bo4 had insane potential. I really enjoyed it for the most part but they changed zombies way too much. If it had the same perk system and a less complicated hud, i think it would’ve been really good
When the main character doesn’t speak and doesn’t have a voice or opinion, the player playing as them feels like they themselves self are the character who is going through the story. Following a story of a person is way different than feeling like that person and going through the story urself.
This man said campaign doesn’t matter, LMFAO! This game is a sequel to Black Ops (2010) the most beloved campaign in the franchise. Also the CIA mind control thing is based the real life CIA developed MK-Ultra. This isn’t conspiracy anymore as President George W. Bush declassified the files.
2 points about the zombies: -they sacrificed replayability for accessibility -if you need things out of the game for replayability, the game is not replayable in and of itself
I liked CW at the start, minus the constant crashing of my Xbox, which I was worried would brick it. After that got fixed, SBMM and the sweatiness killed it for me. Looking back, I kind wish I would've stuck with it for the year after seeing how crappy BF 2042 is and not being interested in Vanguard. I'll probably keep playing CW and MW 2019 until MW2 comes out, but I wish I would've stuck around for all of CW's lifecycle overall, it wasn't a bad COD game. Loved the 80s aesthetic and music, plus the maps were way better than MW 2019. Looking back, I'd give this probably a 7.5/10.
Everytime I play Coldwar it just feels like I'm still playing the beta, idk why but it just feels very unfinished. The SBMM was crazy and I was forced to reverse boost just to have fun playing. Coldwar just feels like it had no identity from other cods and feels like a copy and paste.
Cold War has the most I’d out of any cod with the colour pallet season events the sound design and hit markers sound effect the medals that pop up on your screen the music in this game
I really wish could war would have gotten the treatment mw2 is going to have with the 2 year life cycle , I really think it could have stolen the show 🎉 , hopefully next trey-arch title is that one ✅
@@Olinke yeah cuz the combined arms version is just a bit too open and combat never feels natural on it. The little section they have for 6v6 is perfect though
I really enjoyed the game even though it felt like a let down at the time. I didn't like the time period, and thus the weapon selection. I didn't really like the gameplay mechanics, I really wanted 3arch to stay closer to MW2019. The worst was the bad color palette and visibility, a sin after BO4 and BO3. That said, everything else was good: the maps in 6v6 for the most part, zombie mode was great, gunfight was improved, the perks were great.
Cold War is a unfinished masterpiece people don’t realize it had a 9mon development meanwhile mw19 had a 2yr development if CW wasn’t rushed out and had its original development time I could’ve easily been the greatest cods of all time and my fav cod is B02 and BO3
I think my biggest problem will Cold War is that it just feels like it has no identity no flair or personality from the gameplay to even its name I mean *call of duty: black ops - Cold War* it literally screams that it’s just thrown together in a rush Such a shame that treyarch were dealt the hand they were this time around
I love the early Black ops stories like Black ops Black ops 2 and Cold war but I ain't too much care for three and four all that going to the Future that looks like they tried to compete with advanced warfare and it didn't work out Black ops is one of those games they kind of need to keep it in the past because all the conspiracy makes the game a lot better now how they Black ops 2 was really good because they went to the past to the Future that they're planning on doing that to Future Black ops games do it like that and keep Frank woods Masons inside the game that was their biggest mistake because they were fan favorites like they're making a call of duty Black ops Gulf war that's pretty cool so if they decide to make another call of duty Black ops it can transform over to the future but keep it around 2000s not 3000 like they did with Black ops 3 and 4
@@zmon-ql5tg most of the camos do. Diamond definitely covers the full gun at least for all the attachment combos I use. And I was also talking about blueprint skins and such, assuming you use the attachments they offer you, it’s all in tact
I liked the campaign and maps on this one but the gameplay sucked and the graphics looked bad. I don’t understand how some will call this superior to the now released MW 2
I adored the gameplay. Fast paced, high skill gap.. all that makes it way more enjoyable than MWII in my opinion. Graphics I can care less about although I still do think the graphics are fine in this game
@@Xpertfusion respect your opinion bro. At the end of the day each game is subjective. I myself actually really enjoyed WW2 back in the day and I know I’m in the extreme minority on that one. I guess we can agree that the COD player base will always be polarized over different installments.
Maps were either way too small good for camping or way too randomly open.... Hit detection was really bad...ur bullets magically just dnt do any damage..n shoot first die first was almost in ever gun fight... Skill based matchmaking...made the game way too sweaty...Can't relax a bit or you get ur ass kicked And with all that BS ..they took some epic black ops 2 maps..n destroyed nostalgia adding them to cold war
CW is my least favorite out of Black Ops series but still good. It doesnt have the treyarch feel since they had to take over for SHG. Also too much MW19 features, gunsmith is one of the worst features in cod ever. It pads grinding with a bunch of pointless shit. bO4s individual weapon kits would have been better for CW. Also MW19 style visuals, not bad but takes away from CW having its own identity.
Do you at least think that Cold War multiplayer is unpolished and dogwater and looks like an Xbox 360 or ps3 game? Cold War is a downgrade from Modern Warfare. Cold War is the most unpolished COD game I have ever played. It’s more unpolished then BO3 and BO4 and ww2 and Vanguard and MW remastered.
It looks beautiful on my Xbox Series X. Definitely does not look like a ps3 game. The graphics are more cartoony than MW, MW goes for a more realistic approach. But the colors in CW are vibrant and pop, I like it.
@@Xpertfusion Cold War does look better on the newer gen consoles. I agree with that but I don’t have a newer gen console unfortunately. I have a normal Xbox one. I heard that you can see enemies easily in COD on newer gen consoles then on previous gen.
I love the MP but I will say that I wish the movement was a bit advanced. Just feels like you sprint, aim, recover from sprint, strafe etc. too slowly. Just wish there were perks to help it like lightweight for example or the base movement was a bit better
I personally feel like it's the same as any other COD, I also played a lot of cranked hardpoint which I REALLY wish would return as a playlist because holy shit the movement is SOO fast in that mode lol
@@Xpertfusion Are you genuinely saying that strafing feels as powerful as it did in BO4 or were you talking about ads or sprint speeds? Imo the movement felt a little bit nerfed from BO2/4. I feel like ads speed attachments are too essential as it's way too hard to use an SMG without any ads attachments with how slow you ads
@@Olinke kinda both, I only think ADS is too slow on snipers but for the guns I use it feels fine. I do tend to prioritize attachments that increase ADS speeds but I do that in every game lol. Sprint out’s also I like to prioritize attachments that help that in which a lot of attachments do
Spot on about the campaign’s hideously anti-climactic ending, and the fact that the story continues through war zone hurts it for me and ultimately made the whole thing pointless

Got this game today due to mw2 being a no content trainwreck. Much more classic fast paced gameplay and still a good player base
My favorite cods: Cod4, Cold War, BO4.
weirdo
These videos are very appreciated, your hard work is shown clearly
Me to Cold war after playing Badguard: Perhaps I treated you too harshly.
Best cod since bo2 easily imo.
Best cod gameplay.
Best looking game (visuals+fidelity together)
Great maps overall especially dlcs

Very fun zombies

Another awesome video by xpertfusion 😎
I personally think that Black Ops Cold War is one of the best cods we ever had..despite its flaws.😎💯👍⚡🔥🎮👌
Cold War is like bo1 with bo2 like movement
This deserves more views
Thanks!
This man said campaign doesn’t matter, LMFAO!
This game is a sequel to Black Ops (2010) the most beloved campaign in the franchise.
Also the CIA mind control thing is based the real life CIA developed MK-Ultra. This isn’t conspiracy anymore as President George W. Bush declassified the files.
I didn't say campaign doesn't matter. I said it doesn't matter as much as the other two modes for me personally
The Storyline in black ops weren't that great, Just another hollywood CIA tale filled with cliches. In fact story has never been CODs strongest side.
2 points about the zombies:
-they sacrificed replayability for accessibility
-if you need things out of the game for replayability, the game is not replayable in and of itself

Do black ops 1 that's game is a true masterpiece
Mulitplayer is abysmal. Campaign is cool but too short. Zombies is the best part by far. Overall this cod is mids.

What about it's backwards graphics and laggie-ness? Seriously, compared to MW2019 it looked and felt a lot weaker and older.
