They dream of the days where CoD was a casual shooter that you could jump on and play without having to think much. Even if it hasn’t bothered me too much, I know a lot of Call of Duty fans just can’t handle it. The point is if you have a strong hatred for SBMM, this isn’t the game for you. I don’t think I’ve ever managed to prestige in a Call of Duty without maxing out at least one weapon before now. In fact, as of writing this review, I’ve not maxed out a single weapon in Black Ops Cold War. Currently, leveling up weapons takes an eternity. Not everything is fastĪlthough the gameplay itself acts as a faithful throwback to traditional Call of Duty, the weapon progression is another story. It’s great to see Treyarch addressing the big issues early on and hopefully, we’ll see plenty more patches like these going forward. Treyarch has already nerfed the MP5, AUG, and M16. There are some gun balance issues too, but I’m confident that these will be addressed. This occasionally results in a juicy kill feed, but it’s more common that you’ll finish off one enemy and then another will return the favor. Usually, enemies spawn in bulk together, so you’ll have to fight through at least two or three to get anywhere. It’s rare that you get to engage in a one-on-one gunfight in Black Ops Cold War. The only caveat is that right now there’s something wrong with the spawning. I don’t get particularly excited about the idea of mindlessly mowing down thousands of nameless Soviets. The problem is that the moment you have to complete a mission that isn’t stealth-based, it’s usually forgettable. There are actually several missions that take this approach, and they are all among the best Call of Duty has to offer. I find that Black Ops Cold War‘s campaign excels when playing through these stealthier missions. Even if the gritty realism of Modern Warfare‘s campaign is gone, those epic moments that define good CoD campaigns are very much present. While it comes across as very Hollywood, that’s not necessarily a bad thing. You have to figure out a method that allows Adler and Bell to infiltrate a KGB facility without being discovered. Desperate Measures is a stealth mission where you play as an undercover KGB mole, Dimitri Belikov. Perhaps most impressive of all is Desperate Measures. Not every mission is memorable, but a few certainly stand out.
