Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought every single COD game since COD 4. This is by far the worst one out of all of them so far. This will be the last COD game i buy from Trearch for sure. They are still running the servers from the original black ops it seems like. My friends and I get kicked from parties when we try to join eachother, and we cant even find a game. This is definitely not worth the time or money. The campaign is good, but yet like alot of the others said, its in the 80s where it was suppose to be in the future. The spawning in this game is 10x worse than Modern Warfare 3, and the bullet damage is crazy. I can get 10 hit markers on a person when all i see is their head, but they can shoot me once and I die, from a gut shot.

He likes it is a great game and is very strategic about it.

This game is awful. Spawns suck, bad hit detection, horrible lag, overpowered smgs, uav spam, quickscoping is dumb. Ultimately, the game comes down to your connection to the host which wasn't the case in BO1. I've purchased COD since mw2 and was very hopeful for this game. Ultimately this game is extremely frustrating and not enjoyable. This will be the last COD I buy. If you want a fun multiplayer game, buy halo 4. Much better game.

Great game nice story I like the changes made over the previous games with the menu and the classes looking forward to ghosts I only wish they would tone down the shotgun shooting someone dead from those distances is a joke hopefully ghosts will be more realistic than this game with that gun.

I can't wait for this sequel. Black Ops is DEFINITELY one of my absolute favorite games (for multiplayer and campaign). I hope quickscoping and YYing is included so The Community can quickscope and trickshot!!! Overall I know we will NOT be disappointed. PRE-ORDER WHILE YOU CAN!!!

Sorry Modern Warfare 3, you're still fun and all, but I keep putting Black Ops in the Xbox instead of you. Can't wait for this sequel to come out! You know it will break sales records and there's never a shortage of online competition! PREORDER AND GET NUKETOWN 2025!

Only been playing for a couple of hours. Really like it , good graphics and no more death streaks like mw3. When I seen the thilaiers I told myself im not gonna get it but after a few maps at my buddies house. Really got into it so on the way home had to get a copy

I was excited to get this game since I have enjoyed every other COD game. But Treyarch absolutely ruined this game. The multiplayer experience ruins everything. The server is constantly going down and booting you from games. Then it won't let you join back. I know their servers may be having issues with the amount of people playing, but come on, this is not their first time around the block. They should have done a better job predicting what the server load would be. When the servers are working, the connection is terrible. Whoever is the host has the best connection and is untouchable. You put 10 bullets into his body and he turns around and shoots once and kills you. The spawns also completely jacked up. You are constantly getting shot in the back no matter where you are in the map. Someone will kill you and you will respawn either right behind them or right in front of them, just to get killed all over again. The graphics are worse than MW3, and they have more of a cartoonish feel about them. Not nearly as realistic either. I already know about a dozen people who have returned the game for Halo 4. Unless Treyarch comes out with some radical patches to the system, it is a complete waste of time and money, and will only frustrate you to no end.

I grew to love COD over the years however I wonder if this is the same game. The COD copy is there, it sounds the same as Modern Warfare but the feel is off. I can't place my finger on it. I dont have exactly one reason why I dont like the game. I keep telling myself that I just need to adjust to it a little longer and it never changes. The visuals I.E graphics of the game are good. The sounds, the weapons, the upgrade and class systems are terrible. At this point I am wondering why I bought this game instead of Battlefield....

It's your standard call of duty game. Shoot, die, respawn. Repeat. It has a formula and it works. You'll always have a ton of people to play against. If you like Call of Duty or are new to the genre, pick it up. If you prefer harder shooters, stick to PC.

I was hoping this CoD would be an answer to MW3, but sadly it is far from it, maybe even a step back. The new concept of the 10 point system and the point streaks are great, but they didn't focus on the actual gameplay. The accuracy/consistency of the game is off. Blame it on lag or whatever but even in killcam's there are no hit markers while you are aimed at a target but rather a little bit to the right of the target. There are times when you could kill in three shots sometime NOT kill them with 6 shots and sometimes die without being shot. Something is very wrong there. Random/Problem/Closed lobbies. This has happened a lot for me. Having the party end randomly, or being in a lobby with your friends and then somehow being put in a game without your party. I don't know what you would blame that on except jenky development. The league play will not work. Tried for 30 minutes to get in and played one match. Again something is broken. Another issue has been the servers being down! it seems like it is always down and it is very, very frustrating to pay for a game that you cannot even play. Another weird issue is, if you have a later version you cannot join a lobby or vise versa. A small side note: if you are a Hardcore mode player, there are only FOUR(4) HC modes, TDM, S&D, FFA, and CTF. This is very disappointing to me, especially after David Vonderhaar said that they will place a bigger emphasis on HC modes than any other CoD. To give FOUR modes is a freakin joke. You still can tube in HC though it does seem like tubes have been nerfed dramatically from MW3 or maybe it's just inconsistent like bullets. Being that the game is so inconsistent, it is hard to like the game. It is very frustrating to play and would not recommend this game for it's multiplayer content. As for the campaign mode, I don't know, I played 20 minutes of it and it did not interest me much. I don't think it's enough to know if it's good or bad. I was one to hope and pray this CoD was better than the one before, but sadly it's just another CoD.

Best game out there. People leaving the bad reviews are surely COD haters that will not give the game a chance. Try it and you will love it. It is different from past Call of Dutys but has improved in many places. Don't let the bad reviews sway you.

Been an avid FPS for over a decade. Started with Delta Force and Joint Ops on PC. Anyway, I own all the COD games as well as the Battlefield games. This will be my last COD purchase. After so many issues in the past, you'd think they would fix them in new games right? Like the spawn issues in multiplayer. How can you spawn someone in front of multiple bad guys and don't even give spawn protection for a few seconds? Why does it sometimes take 2 shots from a snipers rifle to kill, but a single shotgun blast from 2 blacks away always kills? Why, oh why did you get rid of Vote Kicking players? Now a single person can ruin game after game cause they are young, dumb, racists, immature, whatever and the only option is for me to leave. If the server is sick of they idiot, why not be able to boot them? Same goes for rage quitters. If someone quits during a match and they are the host (you never know who is hosting BTW), everything freezes while it sets up another host. Ok, np. But many times there is an issue so if kicks everyone out and you lose the points you'd worked on. They got lazy with this one, one crate you can climb, but the SAME crate in a different area, you can't. And it happens a lot. It can be fun, but very frustrating. It feels rushed and unfinished. My biggest issues is the small maps which only helps make bad spawn creations worse

I play the COD games mainly for the online multiplayer capacity. The regular story line is good; certainly better than the MOH series. I really like the online play of BLOPS II; very competitive and entertaining.

Great multiplayer game. My 12 year old daughter (who just started play fps) picked up the game quickly and goes positive. It's a good beginner fps.

After playing every cod game, I felt that this one has the worst multiplayer since mw2, but the best campaign since world at war. The campaign for this game is a great improvement over the original black ops, but the changes to multiplayer were not needed or good. About half the original maps are not very good and the guns are either very overpowered or just horrible, with most requiring multiple attachments because of the insane recoil.

This is the best cod. It just hard cuz it takes more skill to be good at it. So stop complaining. They took out all the stuff that makes people mad in the other cods like finial stand and pain killer and death Streaks. Good job on the the game treyarch!

I have 0% of an inkling that might even refer to how people are giving this game such bad reviews! I understand that in recent years there is a pretty large delineation between the Treyarch and Activision camps, when it comes to the Modern Warfare and Black Ops series. However, just because of your affinity for one style of the game vs another, how in the world can you possibly deny the awesome nature that is the new loadout capabilities, as well as the several other features... I won't go too much further, because I don't want to use this as a pulpit (and yes I am a Black Ops fanboy)... If you wan't to game, come at me bruhh :P it's CptAhab313 on xbox live!

I really wanted to like this game. Not because I am a Call of Duty fan, which I am not really, but because they promised this one would be "different". I purchased myself a copy and my GF's son one too. He played his and I played for a little while and I returned my unopened copy that same day. I got tired of the series when I was still playing MW2. I bought Black Ops hoping it would be different and it was just ok. I bought MW3 with high hopes of a game that i would not tire of in a few hours. I was wrong. Then Black Ops 2 was released and all the major internet review sites said. "This is the Call of Duty game that will make you into the series again and if you have never played one, this is the one!". Well I can personally say that this game did not do anything to get me back into the series or even open my game that I purchased. Let me just say this; if you were getting bored of Call of Duty before and had high hopes that this was the one that would revamp the series, look to another game for entertainment. Its that same game that is set in the future. I tried but I just couldn't like the series again.

I was actually quite a bit excited after skipping MW3 altogether(last cod being played seriously being black ops). After the first few games I played, I found myself being actually quite underwhelmed by this supposed "innovative" cod. I read a few reviews mentioning it expanding on its predecessors and how its the best cod yet. While this may be the "best cod yet" its still cod and after jumping right in, seasoned cod players will find out its more or less the same as the previous games. Alot of people like to complain about camping, but I won't because I don't find it a major issue in this game, not nearly as much as the spawn system anyway. It really sucks to spawn and get instantly killed, but I don't think it has anything to do with a terrible spawning system. Its more in part that the maps are very small. When you compare these map sizes to previous games, there is definitely a notable difference. I didn't really find anything about the weapons that made me go "Wow!". It was almost kind of boring to see that even though this game is set in the future. Were getting the same ole kind of guns we have always gotten. I was expecting more. Alot of people either Praise this game too highly or criticize it to badly. What I am trying to say is, don't go into this game expecting a masterpiece, but also don't assume this game is garbage and that you won't enjoy it.
