Why is it hated?
Because we don't need a new Call of Duty every year.
It's a symbol of the Hollywoodization of games which is suffocating the industry.
>>323794456
>>323794357
Its not.
All Black Ops games are loved and praised.
because its popular
>>323794357
>tons of content
>fun
>well polished
>runs well
>hated by the establishment and intelligentsia
truly the Donald Trump of vidya
>>323795332
But he's right.
It's not hated by anyone who actually played it. The more important question is why everyone pretends to hate it without knowing anything about it.
I was surprised over the holidays when I saw my cousins playing this shit on 4 player splitscreen.
Everything looked messy as fuck in the gameplay cause of all that UI streak shit but man was it nice to see some good couch multiplayer in this day and age.i might be tempted to get it
Cause the multiplayer is garbage now. At least zombies is still fun.
It's almost an arena shooter now so there's really no reason to dislike it anymore. Funny how the FPS genre went full circle.
>>323794357
Better than Halo 5. Just wish people had mics in zombies as much as they used to.
Honestly this has been the best COD to come out in a long time. Multiplayer is eh but the campaign and zombies have alot of to them, and are genuinely alot of fun imo. I haven't like a COD since MW2 but this one is really good
>>323794456
>>323800840
It's pretty great honestly. All the scrubs fuck off to other casual games and CoD essentially breeds a new generation of gamers who will eventually come to love arena shooters (if they haven't already).
>>323794357
Its too different.
Zombies is fun but like AW
I just want MW4
I don't want all this hippin and the hoppin and the bippin and the boppin
>>323802013
i love how butthurt neo /v/ gets when you shit on their shitty childhoods
>>323794357
It's not much fun
>>323802464
I love how twats with shitty grammar say everyone who doesn't agree with them is butthurt.
I'm quite intrigued on their way of thinking.
>>323794357
advanced warfare was probably my favorite yet, and parts of black ops 3 seem like a step back to me, but I feel like the 3 year dev times are really benefiting the series.
I liked it so much I bought the season pass
>>323794357
Because COD offers nothing new and is just a rehash. Not even Nintendo in all its years has rehashed as much as this single franchise.
ONE SHOT
ONE KILL
WON'T EVEN SEE IT COMING
>>323802507
it is tho
>>323802232
>All the scrubs fuck off to other casual games and CoD breeds a new generation
What the fuck is wrong with you? Do you legit have autism? They are recycling arena shooter mechanics because they ran out of ideas and its a new gimmick. People who play CoD are not good at any actual shooters. Faggot.
>>323802659
>Oh man I almost had to come to face the fact I have no argument but it looks like you mad a typo pal. Hehe
>>323794357
I like it

>>323802921
Don't bother trying to argue with the casual as fuck base that is neo /v/. They love their cawwadooties and will fight you to the death broseph.
Can someone post the robot limb ripper scene?
>>323802921

Oh yes, explain how your favorites are "actual shooters".
also why did you google search the image, and then save it from thumbnail all for that comment lmao
>>323797748
yeah go home on your bike you ugly fatass
it's okay. It's just black ops 2 with jetpacks and wallrunning and special moves/weapons.

>neo/v/ defending cawadooty
Just burn this place down.
>>323803356
WITH THESE UPGRADES
YOU NEVER STOOD A CHANCE
>>323794357
My problems are simple.
59.99 pricetag every year, no big sales for years if ever.
DLC maps which split the community, this is the biggest horseshit.
>advertise the game on PC by saying it will have native support for splitscreen on two monitors
>I buy it
>it doesn't
Never buying a Cod game again. They literally lied.
Also, they fucked splitscreen big time. To ~preserve the aspect ratios~ they cut off like 5 inches of screen real estate with giant black bars. It's fucking impossible to see anything, even on a big screen tv.
>mfw tried playing it on last gen consoles
>>323803705
It has tons of content though 2 campaigns, zombies, huge multiplayer though, and I got it for only $40
>>323804124
>2 campaigns
let's be honest, nightmare mode is a laughably halfassed gimmick. and the normal campaign was shit tier anyway so why would anyone want to play through it?
>>323794357
No idea but its literally the only call of duty in which I couldn't get myself to like the campaign (only played multiplayer for 10 hours in cod1 and 4, but fuck that, boring tripe through and through)
>>323803716
>MOD TOOLS ARE COMING
>in Spring :^)
Yeah, congrats, the game already has less players than BF4 which is more than 2 years old, but I bet there'll be some poor 12 year old who will do some sick weapon skins with those tools.
got a black ops 3 key from gmg if anyone wants to trade
>>323804124
>2 campaigns
No, it's the regular campaign, and the zombie campaign, which is literally the same but with soldiers replaced with zombies.

I haven't bought a cowadooty since MW3, and seeing the playercount, it seems that the franchise is dead on PC.

Everytime.
>>323804668
I'm aware, I already did it with Nvidia's surround thing. But:
1) That's not native support. They advertised native support, they didn't provide it. They're indefensible liars.
2) As you can see in the video, despite that fact that he's using two monitors and there shouldn't be an issue with aspect ratio, the lying, asshole developers still take away 3-5 inches of screen space with black bars once you get into a match. This is what happens to me as well. I have two identical monitors, but when I try splitscreen, it's very hard to screen because 2 inches on the top and 2 inches on the bottom are needlessly taken away.
Fuck call of duty, fuck Treyarch.
Is there something wrong with my copy or is it supposed to look like this?
I'm actually amazed at how they managed to make the goddamn Quake 3 engine consume more than 10GB of RAM.
Why does it run so poorly on PC? I can basically max out Battlefront (which looks way better than this shitty game) at 60 fps but I can only run this game on mostly low settings.
>>323798702
Hating CoD loudly tends to be a matter of prestige for peopme who want to pretend that they have an sophisticated taste. And I'm not saying that you have to like it either, but it's absolutely shameful how some idiots try to have some sort of "look I'm a mature gamer" -thingy going on by being so loud about a stupid hate bandwagon, even worse when those people at the same time praise other equally normie games.
>>323805312
Intentionally bad optimization.
>>323805456
I once went to read Battlelog forums and it was full of "oh god how great it is that we have a MATURE community unlike CoD kids!" -circlejerking, even when the forums were obviously full of underage-tier shitposting. Horrible.
>>323805312
It's literally because of RAM.
It eats it up like a goddamn machine, no matter if you have a i7 and a GTX 980, if you have only 8GB of RAM, it'll run like shit.
I've upgraded to 16GB a few days ago because a lot of games suffer from this kind of memory leaks.
No issues since then.
>>323805639

>>323805831
>>323805639 here, I never said that I'm participating in any of those flamewars, I just stated that it's stupid how hypocriticsl people can be about online game fanbases when every popular game is pretty much equally shitty in that regard.
First CoD game I enjoyed since W@W
It has to be really hard to come up with new games every year when you try to introduce new mechanics every time and people still complain
It's a perfectly fine multiplayer fun game, the same you could say about other tons of FPS nowadays
>>323794357
I like it. It's pretty solid. Not BO1 level good, and the campaign is weird. But I like it.
Should I purchase it? I like fps games and I'm not even sure what to buy anymore.
I might even fuck it and buy a onahole instead
Rec me fpses anyway, bear in mind that I have some if not many.
>>323805130
what's wrong with it?
>>323806478
I don't get the BO1 love, BO1 is absolutely terrible in every regard
>>323807634
every treyarch game is great
>>323807784
i take that back, Call of Duty 3 was pretty terrible but the campaign was fun
>>323801015
I can't stand using my mic in pubs anymore, or playing in pubs period. 90% of the time I get morons who've barely played and have little to no idea what's going on, and the other 10% are decent people who make a small mistake and go down upon which they leave immediately. I've had one good game with a random, we got to round 40 on the giant after two morons quit within the first five rounds with me reviving him and carrying his ass all the way, but he didn't leave so we got a decent score. Finding decent teammates is an absolute rarity, it's a much better idea to just stick with playing private with your mates or solo if you don't have any.
>>323795332
Who is this Simon Dimon?
>tfw can still get in a match in Black Ops 1
I love the game. 5th prestige and zombies is good too ( giant > SoE) lots of challenges for people who have wayy too much time.just got dark matter yesterday
>>323807784
I thought the campaign was janky and that the multiplayer was unbalanced, to each their own I guess
Just got dark matter yesterday. Totally worth it. Kind of.
>>323794456
But this has been in development by a different studio since Black Ops 2, which is about three years.
>>323794357
ITT people who haven't played CoD since Black Ops still complaining about it.
wrench >
>>323794357
Because idiots who can't think for themselves are confusing the concept of yearly releases with the concept of a bad game.
>>323794357
Black Ops III, if it didn't have the CoD name, would be loved universally. The campaign is kind of weird but fun, the multiplayer is jam packed with content, zombies is a blast, and the whole game is polished to a shine. It's the best CoD since MW2 by far, and really makes up for the mediocre ghosts and AW.
>>323808242
>giant > SoE
i agree. the giant is fun. shadows of evil is ugly, boring, tedious. i don't want to memorize 5,000 random meaningless bullshit sequences just to last a few extra rounds.

>Can't upgrade it to ps4
I really didn't feel upset about the game I knew personally that treyarch would not work on it personally, because their focus was next gen. But not allowing for an upgrade is really fucking shit. I basically will be paying pretty much 160 dollars for black ops 3 AGAIN, and the dlc for ps4.
>>323805739
>>323805312
I have 8gb of ram and a gtx 960 and it runs at 60 FPS for the overwhelming majority of gameplay. I dont know what the hell you guys are doing
>>323808632
If it didn't have the CoD name it would have been completely ignored.
It doesn't stand out in anything, nothing special, nothing new.
Yet another futuristic FPS.
>>323808574
Right now there's not a single yearly franchise that isn't pure garbage.
>>323808679
Meh, on PC even maxed out it looks like shit.
Hell, fucking Nuketown looks like taken from a goddamn Lego game.
Game's so fucking ugly.
>>323808641
The only pro is the reborn sword, free sentry sword that kicks ass and follows you, and the anihilator doesnt have much going for it in zombies

You fucking hacks.
>>323809185

Get the fuck out. Go grovel for gamer cred elsewhere. Dumping on CoD doesn't do anything but make you look like an idiot.
>>323794357

>Zombies is supposed to be a full game but it's just an okay map and a remake of best map

>>323809306
I'm sorry, you unironically like fucking cowadooty, your opinion is worth nothing.
>>323809306
How does it feel to know that only 12 year olds agree with you?
>>323809395
>you unironically like fucking cowadooty
Which is one of the most consistently well made games on the market. The only shitty ones recently were Ghosts and Advanced Warfare. Every other release has been good to great.
Nobody ever even dumped on CoD for being "bad" when it first became cool to rebel against it. The problems were focused on DLC and yearly releases. Not the actual quality of the games.
I'll say it again: You can't think for yourself and you're only trying to fit in with the commonly accepted opinion.

Turns out they were among the first to realize people will pay a premium for new content in a game.

There's literally nothing wrong with being yearly.

Actually, honestly? CoD is pretty friendly and fun. The real issues stem from anti-cod shitposters like you.
>calls other drones
You're the dumb motherfucker who rattled off this big laundry list of uninformed drone opinions.
>>323809040
You really need to see a comparison video of ps3 Blops3, and ps4 blops 3. I did also mention that treyarch did not port the game to last gen.

How would you know? They're dedicated friendly, or are you basing your opinion on those "MLG montage" video parodies? Not everyone that plays is a fan either, that's like saying everyone who sees star wars is a star wars fan.
>>323804547
I'm just waiting for them to be the same shitty barebones mod "tools" they released for Black Cocks 1 so I can laugh my ass off at the shitty game.

You're profoundly deluded champ. Not only are you multiple years late to the "shit on CoD for attention and praise" train, but even back when it was fashionable to shit on CoD, your idiotic claims wouldn't have gone over well.
>>323811624
I wonder if you realize you're the "neo-/v/" you claim to hate so much.
All that self hatred is just disgusting man.
There's a retarded bandwagon of hurr cod da wurst game evurrrr xd
It's not the fucking magnum opus of humankind but it's an easy to get into decently paced fun shooter, you can just jump in and murder people for a bit and feel good about it while you're doing it.
Shadows of Evil fucking bites though, WaW zombies was still the best.
I like it, it's good desu
I don't think I've seen any hate for it, not even on /v/

Because it is the poster game series for the severe consolitis that the FPS genre suffers from. This has been going on for so long that all the kids who grew up with this diarrhea are old enough to valiantly defend it on here sparking heated discussion. Same goes for Halo.
The "It was all a dream" was pretty cool 2bh
>>323794357
I usually just play quake, but when I tried this it was actually really fun. My biggest problem with most modern shooters is they don't take advantage of being 3D, there's no taking advantage of vertical space, you just run around a flat plain and shoot people around obstacles. Being able to jump around like a kangaroo and run on walls to actually take advantage of all that vertical space was refreshing, even if it's not rocket jumping and juggling. Would buy and play for fun if it wasn't so damn expensive and had so few maps and guns/10.

The idea for the villain being an aware program was cool toobut that ending of the whole thing being a dream and not a dream was fucking stupid

2.They shit out generic shit that sounds/plays nearly indentical to every regressive iteration
3.They take absolutely no risks and make billions
4.They are the face of what companies do. Milk it until its unplayable, sell out everything and shit on advancement, dlc dlc dlc dlc dlc dlc dlc dlc preorder preorder preorder, shameless fucking brand advertising ect ect.

why does this bother you so long as the game itself is good?
>>323820419
I played the MP during the free weekend and it was also mediocre.
Lacking in maps, shit playerbase, no community servers so you can at least skip shit maps, no mod tools, no map tools (and we both know that the tools they release in a few months will be shitty), and the design of the maps themselves have almost NO verticality and are full of invisible walls, so the entire parkour element is completely wasted.
Literally the only recent games to do the freerunning/parkour shit right were Dying Light and Titanfall, and Titanfall is dead as fuck because it has a lot of the same issues that Black Ops 3 has but with a more solid game attached.
>>323807873
COD 3 was okay, played it again recently.
Better than any of the shit Infinity Ward has put out in the last several years.
>tfw IW is the reason Neversoft is dead
I will never not be mad about this
>>323823638
Oh, and Titanfall's movement also has way more momentum, especially since there's no limit placed on your abilities aside from a max wallrun length and your own skill.
You can't pull off shit like webm related in Black Ops 3 since the maps aren't designed for it.
>>323824319
if only it was fun and not on Origin
>>323824319Titanfall was fun as fuck and didn't deserve half the hate it got.Not to mention you could have bought it on release day for $20 from a gray market site.And they made all DLC free after a while.I'll definitely buy titty2.
Havent played a call of duty since MW1 desu senpai
>>323825318
Same here, and they look the same.
BO3 has hitbox problems and takes too little to win or lose.
Three shots can drop a player in a second and emptying a whole clip on someone can leave them with 10% life.
I don't remember a COD that moved this fast and the last one I played was MW1. Also, the maps are just built to camp. Fucking Treyarch.
>>323825776
>Clip
>>323794456
Oh wow, you're so right. Before I buy another COD game I should ask myself "was there a COD game last year" instead of judging the game by its content.
Good thing i'm on /v/ where everyone has such good taste, how else would I know how to judge a game by everything but gameplay? You know i'm sure as fuck not buying a game if I don't share the same views as the creators!
