All CoD games get bombed with 0 scores regardless of their actual quality (or the lack of thereof).
It started around the time MW3 released. Not saying that one wasnt justified but geez
>>315620521
>>315620521
Every mission is built around a "make it to this area of the map" gimmick and the game just throws dozens of robots between you and it, hiding in buildings and behind walls. There's no sense of changing up the gameplay.
>>315620406
>>315620525
To be fair, Halo 5 campaign picks up halfway in and keeps getting better. The story itself is all over the place and nothing like the ads, also doesn't Locke is most uninteresting character. Would've been better off playing as the dudebros from Spartan Ops
>>315620134
I heard people complaining about how the PC version still has stuttering in it. It's a shame; It looked fun
just tried the single player that I pirated.

I wouldn't say the game is not fun, but theres far FAR better shooters this year.
>>315620406
Is there any reference or callbacks to the older 3arc games? Blops dealt with Reznov, Blops 2 had a little of Reznov and had an open ending with woods and mason meeting up again.
>>315620959
It takes place in the same universe, and there are references to the other games, mostly black ops 2. Most of what is happening is somewhat due to the whole Cordis Die fiasco.
I don't think there's any direct references to W@W in the campaign.
The zombies campaign/maps however have tons of references to the zombie lore in all the zombie games (except Advanced Warfare) including W@W.

That's literally the lowest I've ever seen.
This also speaks volumes to how good the game is because the PS3 version only has zombies and multiplayer, which is all anyone gives a duck about.
So if those modes only net a 0.5, then this game might rival Ghosts in how horrible it is.
>>315623794
Oh i didn't see the ps3 part woops
And to think CoD was all over the place some 4-5 years ago. I'm very glad people are finally getting over this shit but far out where does the time go?
>>315620217
Ever since Battlefield and CoD were released close to each other it completely split the military shooter fanbase.
>>315623735
clearly you don't know how metacritic works. they will delete reviews and still keep the score up.
It's strange.
This game has a lot of content for a COD game, but it's like they didn't give any one part of the game 100% effort.
The campaign is horrible. It's nice to see someone else pick up split screen co op now that Halo has dropped it, so I appreciate the effort on that front, but having tried it I can tell you it doesn't improve the quality of the level design and enemy placement, which is possibly some of the worst in the series.
Multiplayer is a mixed bags. Lots of "we titanfall now" but the thing is, there's not much point to that. Anyone that accurately hits ADS on you will kill you quickly, so nobody wants to wall run if they don't have to. Can't speak for all the weapons but already 9/10 people are using the same Sub Machine gun.
Zombies is good fun. Classic gameplay with a few added gimmicks. I just wish there were more maps.
I like it more than the battlefront beta, but I can't reccomend it over Halo 5.
What?
Y'all don't know about Cara?
Is there just one zombies map right now?

There's 2, but one of them (a remake of Der Rise from World at War) is exclusive to hardened edition/Juggernog edition owners.
There's also Dead Ops Arcade, but that doesn't really count.

I really was never a fan of the series' progression into the future. The exosuit stuff just feels really out of place, COD and Halo need to stop overstepping each other's boundaries.

>>315624992
Not that much, really.
But if they sold the campaign as it's own thing for 10 or 15 dollars I would have definatly bought it, even more if it was like that ''leak'' said it would be.
Black Ops 2's campaign was GOAT, the decision system had more impact in the events of the game than any choice in Mass Effect 2 or 3, the story wasn't half bad, it had a charismatic villain and the two timelines thing was quite original.
I expected that with a 3 year development cycle they would build upon that.
>>315624745
The steelbook case is nice.
It's more visually appealing than, say, the Halo 5 metal case, but it's not worth the extra price alone.

On Steam it's almost everyone complaining about optimization issues.
I doubt anyone would buy a CoD game in 2015 without knowing what you are in for.
>>315625458
It is annoying that that is the only complaint. I mean shit like Pokemon does the same thing, yet it would never get those kinds of complaints.

No, people complain about Pokemon now because it's just too goddamn easy.

I haven't looked at the steam reviews, I don't intend to get the game, but MC for the PS4 and XB1 are pretty much exactly what I said, only some are amusing enough to be "It's not CoD anymore..."
What was the last well optimised CoD on PC anyway?
>>315625647
I don't mind franchises staying the same just throwing in different things now and again if those things work for people. If it didn't appeal to me to start with, I'm not gonna whine that it still doesn't appeal to me.
Pokemon is driving me crazy with how dull it is, though. Even kids find it boring now, so I don't know why they haven't made major changes to the formula.

Aside from maybe Call of Duty 3 there isn't really a mainline game I'd rate below a 6. Not a fan of them but the games never really had any glaring flaws for me. But the last one I played was MW2 so maybe the series got really awful instead of just derivative for all I know.

Not in the slightest.
The weakest part of Halo 5 is the campaign, and that's miles better than Black Ops 3's campaigns.
The multiplayer for black ops 3 is addicting, but it lacks the superior balance and gunplay of Halo 5.
The only area where BO3 may be superior is in the Zombies vs Warzone category, but that's up for debate.

MW2 was the worst thing to happen to the series. Black Ops significantly fixed the MW playstyle.

It probably has more hours of replayability, not more content.
>>315626760
Not him but killstreaks and customizable loadouts break any chance of the game being balanced
>>315626801
Not going to argue opinions, I liked both games. I might just favor MW2 because of the nostalgia it brings. I used to spend whole days playing with friends on it
>>315626785
I would like it if they added in BF4 the crossbow that shot ziplines. jumping from one building to another with them was fun as fuck, but that was all there was to Hardline.
>>315626915
CS has customizable load-outs. Killstreaks sure, although against decent players they become pretty irrelevant, they just make you win more.
>>315626831

How is modern Battlefield 4on current gen consoles?
>>315626760
hopefully it's fun. I remember we played MW3 pirated on tunngle and that wasn't even fun for a call of duty, the stalest game of the entire series basically.
Still though, I feel bad that he wasted $50 on buying both games not using the VIP deal. Then again, I don't know how you get a VIP account on GMG, and why I have one.
>>315627023
If only they made Bad Company 3 but kept the big maps from regular Battlefields, they would have good multiplayer and good SP too.
>>315627114
With current you mean PS4 and XONE?
If so, they are fine, nothing to worry about.
PS360, well, they are as good as they can be, but still, having only 24 players thing kills the game.
>>315627252
Haven't played battlefield 4.
I didn't like how in 3, the maps were clearly built around the rush gametype only.
Does 4 play better with conquest than 3 did?
>>315627402
There are only 2 (hallway) rush maps in BF4
BF3's abortion hallway maps are mostly gone except for the BF3 map pack
In fact rush maps are so bad in BF4 that no one plays it.
Fucking amazing.
Mostly conquest maps in BF4
>>315627402
Yeah, they are definatly made for conquest.
I tried Rush and it just doesn't feel good, plus in the few maps I played in Rush, one team has a clear advantage, and unless the entire team is coordinated, they'll lose.
There's also your not-Operation Metro which is just a long infantry map with a few chokeholds.
Still, the second map pack added BF3 maps, including Operation Metro, so whatever.
It's good, just a refined BF3.
I don't know about PS360, but on next-gen and PC you'll have even trouble finding Rush servers.
>>315627538
Pistol gungame is most fun gamemode though
>>315627721
Gungame is legit, but dropzone is god tier tho.
>>315627538
>>315627624
Why don't they just make dedicated maps for certain gametypes?
A map made specifically for handfuls A will always suck for gametype B.
>>315628028
They only make conquest based maps because no one gives a fuck about Rush.
Rush was only good in Bad Company 2 anyway.
Everyone's fine with having all maps conquest and one map being an infantry clusterfuck.
>>315628028
Why do the battlefield soldiers always look mid 30's?
These are army grunts. They should be 19-24

>>315620134
It is terrible.
I got a i7 GTX760 8 ram, Tried to play with the nvidia optimized settings and then manual setting disabling some stuff.
The FPS drops all the time in the single player, it goes from 60 to 30 when there is a character on the screen, and even lower. Even the cut scenes get stuck and there is a desync witht the characters mouth and what they are saying. You can't take the guns enemies drop anymore, I found that extremely lame.
The MP is a mess. The matchmaking is not working properly, sometimes you just don't get to enter any game and it is launch day, so I don't know if it is a bug or the PC community is just shit.
The Nuk3town map is a fucking lagfest, everybody in the map complains it is lagging so it is no only me. Maybe it is the region I'm playing. Also FPS issues.
The FPS drop affects the aim, so you need tweaks on the ini and task manager to "fix" but it just stop working and other things break.
The PC optimization is a fucking joke.
The net code is terrible sometimes. Everyone has the same latency but sometimes you just die before the enemy appeared, and in the kill cam you were just right there all the time, maybe it is a sync problem. I noticed it in my favor too many times against friends.
Not even considering the bugs on the menus and buttons when you can't change the loadouts or some game options simply won't show. Don't remember this shit in AW or BLOPS 2.
Don't believe the HYPE or positive reviews and don't believe the FUCKING STREAMERS. These fuckers are all paid shills saying this game in the beta was already better than AW. NO fucking way! The gameplay in AW was smooth. BLOPS 3 multiplayer feels clunky and it is not just the optimization issues, it is just crappy somehow, it feels strange. Most maps make you feel like a fucking idiot for playing anything else than the tryhard guns. Nothing new but worse.
Just requested my refund, wish me luck bros. I don't know if I deserve it because I fell for this trap again, fuck me.

That's what you get for playing it on PC.

I work retail and its kind of true.I expected bone sales for halo 5, they picked up a bit back when titanfall came out for about a week. But nothing has changed at all.
Most white dudebros come in and buy sports games, the occasional batman or farcry. Other ethnicities buy the same, but more racing games, and some jrpgs.
It's really not exaggerated that while ps4 has sold a shitload, software sales are bad.

It's the truth.
Anyways, PCfags just pirate the game regardless so you should be happy that you got the game at all you entitled manchild.
I feel that Black Ops 1 is the number two modern CoD game after CoD4. It's fast paced but not as retarded as MW3. MW3 just feels retarded, the SMGs are easily the best guns with the Rapid Fire attachment.
>>315631440
They addressed the "Spartan 4's are not real Spartans" dilemma well in the campaign, especially at the end when cortana was taunting them

Osirus really rose to the occasion and made a stand.

What is the context of this diologue?

Everything is hit or miss with a pc there's no in between

mads, there's no way a AAA game is 0/10 bad. Ride to Hell is probably only like 1/10 bad. A game has to be completely unfunctioning garbage worse than even that to be a 0/10.
what version is better? X1 or PS4?

PS4 has slightly higher native resolution and gets maps 30 days earlier.
Xbox has a smoother frame rate.
Take your pic.

Basically identical.
Xbox has less frame rate inconsistancy but PS4 gets DLC first.

Buck has some great diologue.
Towards the end he has a line where he is just like "well.... SHIT" and I chuckled.
