Treyarch Puns

-SBMM (ruins pubs experience)

-EKIA (inflates stats)

-PING WAR (ruins gaming experience)

-NO WEAPONS BALANCE (AK 47, LC 10, XM4, 1911, AUG, KSP, LMGs etc. - reduces skill gap)

-NO ANTI CHEAT (why ?!)

-SOUNDWHORING (mixamp warriors)

-GUNFIGHTER (reduces skill gap)

-CAMERAING (abusive game mechanic)

-BAD MAPS (maps are so bad that they added four BO2 maps to make up for it - maybe Slums coming with next season)

-WALL BANGS (question is what's not a wall bang in this game lol)

-NO FLINCH (no surprise snipers are GAed)

-INCONSISTENT SPAWN SYSTEM (ruins gaming experience)

-LP (no ELO ranking system, no map vetoes, no preset classes, poor rewards)

-AIM ASSIST (broken - reduces skill gap)

For example, the crossbow, why have it with just standard bolts? Its just a fast velocity ballistic knife

They should add new bolts like: explosive, incendiary, gas, decoy(simulates gunfire, distracting enemies), smoke, and a zipline version for warzone to enhance the sandbox aspect

The ammo conversion for the C58 was an interesting step in the right direction so why stop there?

The stoner is one of the most eclectic weapons ever made, they should add things such as the ability to use magazines among other things, at least gimme the bo1 stoner back

Or how about a conversion to make the spas a pump action?

Those are just some examples, we need the current weaponry to be more fun and versatile and utilise the gunsmith system better

Just ran into a lvl 1001. How do they not have systems where physically impossible levels acquired at the start of the season dont flag you??!? Person went negative so it wasn’t skill related at all. People beg for anti cheat when they can’t even register impossible levels acquired at the start of the season.

I've seen a lot of almost identical posts on here about how "Cold War Zombies is great" and how that's an "unpopular opinion"... So, I thought this is worth clearing up.

Very little people on this subreddit actually think Cold War Zombies is bad. It's a very popular opinion that the new mobility is excellent, the new perk system is amazing, and the tier upgrades are a fantastic addition to the game. Hell, even the maps are a load of fun.

The issue I see most people bring up I Treyarch's handling of the mode this year.

• Lack of Content - The game dropped with one map. We got DLC 1 in February (despite many "rumours" claiming it was originally supposed to be a launch map). All of this is fine; however, now we may not see a new map until Season 4, or even 5. The only new content we've gotten are field upgrades and ammo mods. Well, and...

• Outbreak - Outbreak is great. It may be the best "side mode" zombies has ever gotten. However, it no longer feels like a side mode. This is where a lot of complaints have come from recently. Since releasing last season, Outbreak has gotten: two new maps, a new objective, and a new side objective. Both new field upgrades, and the new ammo type also released with Outbreak. All new zombie content seems to be focused on Outbreak. However, despite this... OUTBREAK DOESN'T EVEN HAVE UNIQUE MAPS. They're literally just MP maps, even the "zombie exclusive season 3 map" Treyarch announced, is just a Fireteam map.

• Nerfs - Again, another issue that has come up recently. Treyarch advertised Cold War Zombies with power. The whole "any weapon can be an Uber Weapon". This is one of the reason so many people love Cold War zombies. You truly feel powerful, and (almost) any weapon can get you to Round 100. However, nerfs to the shotguns and deadwire has made people worried. Instead of fixing broken weapons like the snipers (that can't even collat properly), Treyarch decides to nerf the more powerful weapons, and the ammo mod that truly makes any weapon "feel like an Uber Weapon". It just sends the wrong message.

There are other reasons too: like bugs, xp rates, false bans, etc. However, I don't want this post to come across as too negative. Cold War zombies is great, most people here love it. It's just many fans are frustrated at the moment because it feels like Treyarch doesn't care about it. And that makes sense. Since Cold War launched, Warzone has continuously been given the most attention. Multiplayer has bee

Leak from Victor Z, who has correctly leaked a lot of information from previous CoD releases. This would explain why content is coming out slower, since they would be working on two games at the same time.

What do you think about this, if its true? We would get less Cold War content, but also more overall Treyarch content over the next few years if Treyarch does zombies for every game.

Imo Season 3 of Black Ops Cold War is one of the best seasons we have ever gotten in CoD. The start of the season had a great amount of content for MP and WZ. The new maps were great especially Yamantau which imo is an instant classic with great aesthetic design and also a really good flow and layout.

the mid-season update was also great. From that bombastic Outbreak EE (I hope they add the bunker as an standalone map!) to Fireteam Elimination and the return of Standoff!

The new modes (especially 12v12 and Die Hardpoint) are also awesome and by the end of the season we would have 6 new weapons for S3.

By this time in a CoD season I would be losing interest in the game and play it less and less but this Season is different. I'm loving the game right now.

I hope Treyarch continues this trend and we see more banger maps/content throughout the remaining 3 seasons.

Disclaimer:

I know the main reason of not liking Old maps being brought back is because people want new maps that are good but my question is why this wasn't the case last year? Why is only Treyarch getting hate?

Like hell Season 1 of MW19 had 3 remastered maps with added doors and camping spots and everybody was happy but now that Treyarch is doing it its wrong all of a sudden?

Some of the most upvoted posts on this sub reddit is requests for Express, Standoff, Hijacked and other classic maps. Yet when they actually give us those maps people start crying for recycled content?

I really don't understand the behavior the community is having towards this topic. We have 5 remasters in 4 seasons in BOCW (Express, Standoff, Nuketown, Hijacked, Raid) and by Season 4 of MW19 we had 7 remasters (Shipment, Vacant, Crash, Rust, Hardhat, Backlot, Scrapyard). I'm not bashing any game I'm just amazed of how much hate is towards Treyarch this year.

Now in terms of actual new maps, compare this year to last year. It's about the same. (And we aren't talking about quality of maps since it may be a subjective matter but imo BOCW maps are better in terms of flow and layout).

We haven't had Raid, Hijacked, Standoff ever since BO3 and Express since BO2. These aren't maps like Firing Range and Jungle which are brought back in every single Black Ops game.

P.S: I'm not counting Hijacked, Raid and Standoff (Ghost Town) in Blackout because that wasn't the main MP. It was just the BR that had those maps.

Shinobi tweeted this , did not see this posted anywhere else:

‘Deviation Games is comprised of a bunch of veterans from a variety of studios, including:

The Coalition, Arkane Studios, Treyarch, Blizzard, Sony Santa Monica, DICE, Respawn and more.’

Most of them happen to be shooting genre developers. This just got VERY exciting 👀

Edit: I love that sony is wisely partnering with these studios who have credible and experienced devs from the industry. Also its evident these studios prefer being independent too

See, most people work all day, then when they come home and log onto a game of cod, they are there to destress, not to train themselves to go into the cdl as the competitor to faze clan. But the SBMM, man is it making me hate the game more and more. I love what you are doing with the game, but SBMM is literally killing. I log on, have 2-3 good matches, and then after that, the sweatiest motherfuckers along with tryhard campers join my lobby and massacre me all the way. Like, you have a seperate league play for ranked, why not implement SBMM in that only and remove it or tone it down for MP. SBMM IS LITERALLY KILLING YOUR GAME. You can watch most of the cod youtubers who play cold war, they are onto the same thing and always complain. 1 good k/d game, then all level 300+ start joining the game. Why can't it be like OG cod, connection based. Hope you listern to my rant which speaks for a million others. I have a few other suggestions which could make your game better, it's perfect atm too but SBMM, you know. :-

• The movement mechanics should be tweaked a bit, to feel less, clunky, It's not bad but if we compare it to the movement system of IW's Modern Warfare, it is definatlry a little lacking.
• Flak Jacket should be nerfed a bit or the Launchers should be buffed to actually make it viable for gameplay.
• a lc10 nerf is neccesary. Everytime I see a sweat, he is 99.99% of the time using an lc10.

I know this is asking for a lot and because of the pandemic polishing the game would have been very hard so some things must have been cut down, but if you could just tone down or remove SBMM that would make the community very grateful, and the golden era of cod could be crought back.

Thank you, Treyarch

I don’t know how many times this has been said, but aside from lack of content. Cold War lacks some personality in their operators. I get they wanted to try something new with all these characters, however they need to have more unique lines, and actually be able to interact with eachother like they have in Black Ops 3 and 4.

These guys are so cool, but like cmon man you’re telling me they can’t even compliment eachother on kills, have more reactions to certain events happening, NOT EVEN AN OUNCE OF CUTSCENE DIALOGUE.

Come on man, sometimes it really just feels like CoD was forced to cater to Warzone and lose some of it’s personality.

As a solo player, I’m put onto teams where it feels like I’m expected to just carry my team to victory.

I can’t queue into a game without getting spawn trapped or killed with the best weapons in the game. I can hold my own but my teammates fail to do their part almost 100% of the time. This is especially apparent when I’m trying to level up new weapons, grind some of the more annoying camos (point blanks for example), or just play a relaxing game. If I do anything other than try my best, my team loses each game.

If you’re going to implement SBMM (which I don’t really care about), at least try and balance teams as fairly as possible OR ensure lobbies are filled with players that have comparable stats (K/DR, SPM, Elim/DR, etc). If SBMM is doing its job, these players shouldn’t be in my lobbies.

Sorry for the rant, I know this has been discussed to death. Just needed to vent a bit.

Both 12v12 and Die Hardpoint have been the best game modes I have played in recent memory. Please keep them both for the foreseeable future. 12v12 is great for those going for high kills, camos and challenges while Die Hardpoint is great for those players who want to rush super heavy (and the potential to drop a Nuke!). And the abundance of hit registration fixes really makes it so much more enjoyable. Thankyou Treyarch!
