Now that we’ve had over a month with Bo6, what’s the general thoughts?

It has its problems like every CoD release, but overall, I’m having fun.

Edit: Damn, wasn’t expecting a mundane comment like this to blow up lol

Edit 2: Awards?! Thank you, but ya’ll nuts!

I like everything about it except the maps. My god they’re bad.

It’s the most fun I have had playing COD since Cold War. Maybe I’m just a Treyarch fan boy.

One weapon away from dark matter, having fun almost daily, hasn’t happened since MW2019
Game good

This goes for MP, zombies is some real fun and the campaign isn’t incredible but I enjoyed it.

I want to like the game but the game doesn’t want me to like it. Every match feels like it’s rigged and I can predict from the few first kills/ deaths if the game will be playable or not; you either roll on the lobby or get played as if it was your first CoD, to discover at the end of the game that the semi-pro players you seemed to face went 34-31.

Add the desync to the mix which makes some weapons litteraly unplayable (Tsarkov, SWAT, Kompact, Marine, the pistols), the god-awful spawns and you get a rage-inducing game that can make me go to zombies after one or two MP matches.

Also, the map pool is really terrible, it ranges from horrendous to OK-tier at most.

Not as much fun as I had in MW3

it’s a cod that i’ve loved grinding, can’t say that about anything since BO3. the bugs are minor and even when i get upset at the game it’s mostly a skill issue rather than a critical bug with the game

It was fun but now I’m always put on teams that get whopped.

Not fun anymore tbh. Might come back in season 3 or something. Glad I didn’t have to pay $80 for this.

I like the game but it just has so many bugs that really pulls the game down for me.

Multiplayer thoughts: the maps are fine for me I’ve played cod since Black Ops 1 days and I agree having some bigger maps would definitely be nicer. These maps still play somewhat fine, it’s just the spawns can really suck at times.

The gun selection always seems to be a weak point of treyarch games, I’ve never understood why, but if we could keep getting 5 guns per season that would be excellent.

Omni-movement is good and feels fluid but it definitely makes the game more competitive imo, so it can get tiring. Perks are good and so are streaks but not as good as B01 days or even B03-B04.

Zombies mode thoughts: I think it has a alright base right now, but pls treyarch either make armour plates drop more frequently or bring back Cold War zombies armour system.

Pack a punch seems too weak now for guns, and I hate that essentially every public game is just people having to use only wonder weapons, because the gun balance is in the toilet.

I’d really love a complete overhaul for guns in zombies so me and others can use whatever gun we want and go to round 30+ without issue.

Besides gun balance and the awful warzone armour system, the maps are my next disliked aspect.

Maps need to be much better right now, it’s so generic feeling. A huge cool thing used to be you felt like you were playing in a crazy fun fantasy map but it’s so boring the maps now that it’s super disappointing.

All up, whoever is in charge of making maps for multiplayer and zombies either need to learn the words arcade and fun in the dictionary or find a new job.

As it’s the weakest and most terrible point in the game by far.

It’s pretty good, but I stopped playing it. I got burnt out. Too many people that clearly have no hobbies but play this and prestige

It’s been pretty disappointing. The guns have little personality and the attachments lack depth. Attachments are very basic and boring. The perks are really poorly balanced and the system overall is busted. Maps are so insanely bad. Maybe the worst maps in COD history. The Omni-movement is sweaty and it makes every map play at a break neck pace. There’s no flow to the maps. Every game feels like a shipment match. On top of it all, Activision shoving AI into our faces is gross. AI “art” is evil plain and simply and it’s frankly disgusting how cheap and lazy Activision is. The lag and de-synch is awful too. I’ve found myself playing this game so much less than any other COD. It’s actually broken my COD addiction. I’m playing other stuff and just doing other things.

Activision needs to pull their heads out of their asses.

Honestly, I just deleted it last night from my ps5. My experience has not been as enjoyable as others I see on here. I have played them all since the beginning, just saying. It has been every match, I mainly play tdm since thats all my buddies will play, there is a group or a solo person with some real generic name super high prestige, shooting everyone through walls, has 48/2 or some unknown thing. Tried other game modes myself, just went down the list and once again I get thrown into a match that’s halfway done with 1-3 people on the other team just standing in spawn shooting everyone or some unknown stuff is going on.

It seems like I can only play for 2-5 matches before it just shit storms you for the next 2 hours or however long it is, till it puts you in a match that’s just ok, close game on kills and stuff, then right after that it’s just another shit storm for hours, then another nice match. And during those shit storm matches, I managed to just barely get 1.0. Then the nice ok matches come in, and it’s around 1.5 or so.

I have a decent k/d of 1.2, but I have to just camp now, I get that I’m getting older, 39, and my hands from working manual labor my whole life are going to shit. And all these people are leagues ahead of me, probably an elite controller or k/m but with crossplay turned off and just going against other “ps5 users”, I say that because I don’t think it’s ever actually off, it just seems well rather odd that these guys are jumping in circles in the air while shooting with no recoil on the gun in the kill cam, then you pick the weapon up and it just fires all over the place. Had a match where some guy had a pack a punched gs45 shooting exploding bullets in domination, level 300 or something. I didn’t see an event or special game mode, so I don’t know.

I think what just finally did it for me is that I was trying too hard to enjoy the game. I just didn’t know what the actual hell was going on in some of the matches. Just bizarre crap kept happening, and my buddies just would sit through it, getting killed just over and over at spawn, getting mad and arguing, and these are guys that I literally grew up with 30 years now I’ve known and played with them, never has it been this bad. We kept saying yeah bad match, bad match, bad match, for hours just trying to get one decent match, just one match where it was a struggle to keep the lead or that come back from 80-100 or something you know, just not constantly getting shit on.

I don’t know how SBMM works or that other thing you all were talking about, I’m a carpenter it went over me, but my skills in the game are below average, there is no way in hell I should be up against some dude with a 14 kd or something, or a ranked player in a basic match with a 9 kd, they say your bad at wz if your anything under a 2.5 kd. My buddies both have around a solid 1 kd, and I think one is at a .95 other is at probably 1.1. So I don’t understand, has the gap of skill become that large? Or am I just a complete idiot and just reinstall the game and enjoy it again?

If it wasn’t for the shitty servers and cheaters it would be great. Right now it’s just alright. Tired of getting slammed by pros or whatever 5 games in a row just to get 1 good game and then back to the 5 game gauntlet of pros.

It frustrates me that team players can block your movement completely. It’s annoying. Fine game but I miss ground war with a larger battlefield.
