Do you want to play a video game where you grind your tits off for gear that is probably useless or will become obsolete? Playing the same activities till your eyes melt for perfectly rolled gear? To swear at your screen after seeing a player who has all the crap you want but don't have the time to grind for? Do you want to play a PVP where you get cheap shot every single game? Or a competitive mode that is filled with aimbots ruining your perfect run? Do you want to try and coordinate puzzle solving dungeons with five random potatoes late into the night? Begging, "Dear god, please just do your job so we can finish this raid" and then getting absolute crap gear as a reward? If so, this game is for you.

Misleading name. Game gave me nothing but despair cuz all my favorite characters died. Very sad.

Make sure to buy two copies and play both.

I want to like this game so much but each time I get into it I'm always dissapointed. Let me start off by saying this game is good on consoles where people use controllers. It didn't transfer to PC so well.

First is the movement. Why? Why did Treyarch decide to add movement boosts? In a game franchise that is already very run-and-gun why add faster movement? On consoles it's fine because people don't have as much control of their movement than with a mouse & keyboard, but on PC you're almost always flanked or shot from behind. Not only that but it's also very convenient for melee classes. Every match I play there's almost always one guy camping rooms with a melee weapon, but I guess that's not really new.

This leads to the maps. In games like Black Ops 2 the maps were pretty linear. You had 3 lanes to go down and not much deviation or ways to get around. Blops3 not only has improved movement but also different ways to get around the lanes and behind the enemies, which leads to flanks and killing from behind. It's the combination of movement options and map design that really frusturate me.

My experience with the spawning in this game is horrendous. I can't tell you how many times I've spawned and either immediatly run into someone or have someone gun me down. Most games just devolve into who can camp the other teams spawn better.

Finally, the matchmaking is bad. At least in Ghost I could count on getting into a different robby if I left the current one. Blops3 has continually forced me into the same lobby even after the game starts or after I've RQ'd (Don't judge me). I'm obviously leaving the lobby because I don't want to play there anymore, don't put me into the same lobby.

The gunplay is great, albeit a couple guns are OP. There's plenty of camo's and cosmetics to unlock that are pretty cool. But when it comes down to the gameplay it just falls short for me. I get into it but after experiencing so many stupid deaths I just can't take anymore. Get it for console where it's harder for people to utilize the movement options.
