i thought this would be pants but it is a lot of fun, not as serious as MW, reminds of call of duty ww2, some of the noises are the same.

Got myself this for Christmas. Campaign was good fun though some what short but it's up there on COD campaigns.

Online is just strange. My weapons seem to take ages to kill people even though I'm getting hit markers. Where as everyone else's weapon seems to drop me in just one shot. Gun fights seem really inconsistent. Maps are OK but Miami is probably like Piccadily on Modern Warfare. Had a night of HC which is not my thing normally but it was way more fun than core. Unlocked my Combat record and tells me the amount of kills I've had but not deaths? WTF! And what's with the cant pick a class till level 4?

I dont have the time to get really good at these games and dip in and out. Going online in a multiplayer just frustrates me as I get shot within seconds !!!!! Probably by some 5 year old !!!

The DMR 14 seems to be the meta weapon in Warzone so definitely get that levelled up.

I've gone with the Stoner LMG recently, almost maxed it out and it works well both close and longer quarters, but I find I often revert to old sniping methods, so I've started grinding that burst pistol in Nuketown just to force myself to do more close-quarters stuff

Maybe just me doing something stupid but my gun that I have keeps disappearing when a game starts and I’m left with a basic version any ideas?

on PS4, I sometimes get a UI error at the end of a game, I think it relates to an end-scene animation as it doesn't appear. Closing and restarting the app works to clear that.

What I pretty consistently get is a UI error that freezes the game when I attempt to restock from a chest in MP games. Hit square, and the game locks solid with the error screen until I restart it. It's getting frustrating as I'm improving as a player and I'm now getting to the point that there are times I'm out of ammo before I'm killed (a real novelty to me) and if I can't restock, then it pretty well screws up the match.

In the meantime, I'm just equipping my Stoner with a massive mag, and using the knife as my secondary

there are a few bugs, but so far the game is pretty good really, it isn't warzone, but if all the cheaters and serious players go on that it makes this game better. The stoner is good.

Trying to get a good game of Zombies without a disconnection error is hard work, I had a level 45 dropout yesterday which I was overjoyed about mad

5 out of 5 Zombie games have disconnected this morning so I’m giving up and getting some fresh air. rolleyes

Got this for christmas, Crazy that there were 5 hours of files to download before playing. Whats the point in buying it on disc?!

The campaign mode failed to install, so now have to start the process again.

Multiplayer works, but i feel most maps are to big and just run around a lot. Been a long time since i've played online, forgot how frustrating campers and people with headsets are.

I’m struggling to enjoy Cold War online tbh. Quite liked single player but not as good as previous games.

Anyone have any tips for increasing firepower and armour? I die easily and have to use more bullets than I’m used to just to get a kill. Often shoot first die first.

I use flak jacket and level 45 AK47.

It's much better in hardcore mode especially playing team deathmatch.

Huge update now live, new maps, guns, ops and a sprawling open world zombies cool

The crashing/freezing on Series X appears to have been fixed, it was never officially acknowledged or mentioned in the patch notes but I’ve not had a lock-up for about 3 weeks.
