Call Of Duty Review

By Jonathan Willie


Yes, Call of Duty is back, for the Sixth successive year. This November brings us the part two to Call of Duty Black Ops, which in my opinion is the best COD game. So naturally I had high expectations for the project, zombies, and multiplayer.

Lets get the campaign out of the way initially. The story takes place in 2025 and has goals sprinkled in, that are set during the rivalry. Black Ops 2 is a disappointment on the story front for me. The practically simply fail to remember most of the things from the first on and is now just an additional COD campaign that delivers you every where and you don't know what the heck is going on. But the visuals are nicer than previous installations and you still have all the huge ceremony. Although the tale wont thrill, the project is still fun to play through.

Treyarch struck gold with zombies back when they launched Globe at War and is now attached to every COD game they launch. The graphics look much better than ever before and gameplay feels fantastic. Tranzit mode is a good touch and I like the idea of a bus taking you to different areas to fend off zombies. The normal survivor mode is back and is wonderful.

Now for multiplayer. Well, its the best Call of Duty multiplayer ever. The gameplay feels absolutely ideal. Its smooth and rapid paced and is extremely fun to play. The new pick 10 create a course is a much welcomed break from the normal. The choice of guns is good, but not as broad as previous COD games. There are the usal game modes and they have actually added kill confirmed this time around. You can prestige your firearms twice with a max level of 20. There are 10 status's and 55 ranks now. All the maps are average to actually good and well designed. Probably the most significant change to the multiplayer would be ditching the killstreaks for point streaks. Its much more difficult to construct your point streaks up, since they reset after you pass away. However it does produce more calculated decisions and makes you think of exactly how you will play.

This is a truly excellent Call of Duty game and is now the new criterion of the collection. I think taking Call of Duty to the near future was a good option and cant delay to see where it goes next.
