Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War

Well it’s later than normal this year but the leaks are starting to happen.

Xclusive Ace put a video up on YouTube but he’s now made he private. The details of the video are as below.

In his video, he reveals the following information on the 2020 game, and says the game will feature Zombies, Campaign, MP, alongside Warzone.

2020 game is in fact set during Cold War era

Game is “actually in a good state” with “MP maps almost done.”

Campaign is “fully playable state” but not all animations are complete yet

He says there will be a new map for Warzone with 2020 game, and says he has seen an “overview of the new Warzone map.”

Standard Mini-Map is back, similar to previous Call of Duty games prior to Modern Warfare

Even with standard mini-map back, there is also a compass (which was introduced in Modern Warfare)

Swimming mechanic returns, and there will be water in MP maps alongside water in the new “Warzone map.”

Unlimited sprint is back.

No interact doors in regular. Mechanic stays in Warzone.

10 MP maps are apparently developed so far, more probably in works. Treyarch style maps.

One map is “very small” and a boat on the Black Sea

“Tank” – which is the map that was shown in the leaked gameplay earlier

No Specialists, but a Field Upgrade-like feature returning.

He says that you get one piece from equipment to choose from.

Scorestreaks will return.

There is NO Dead Silence in the game at this time. It’s not a perk. He cannot confirm how footstep audio is right now.

150 Health (similar to Black Ops 4) but has auto-heal.

Create-A-Class is “unique.” Hybrid between Pick-10 and classic. No Gunsmith.

6v6 is standard player count. There is no Gunfight mode.

There is “apparently a mode” in MP that takes place on various sections of the new Warzone map.

New Warzone map apparently takes place in Russia.

As always, this information is not fully confirmed as of now.

Some interesting bits in there, I’m glad Warzone will be staying and getting a map for this game that’s a wise choice. No gun smith is a disappointment as I love that in MW.

I was getting excited until I got to the 150 health part.

this might be first CoD game I skip because my time will be spent playing Cyberpunk 2077.

I normally like Treyfarts cods as they use score streaks and have 3 Lane maps but I hate 150 health. If I wanted to use 3 clips to kill somebody I'd go and play halo.

150 health and dodgy AF netcode.......

Welcome to the shenanigans!

Love 150HP

Better sustained aim, movement and gunplay, over “who sees the other player first wins the gunfight”

150 health and no Dead Silence means I'll most likely skip it. Having no DS means I can't play MW2019 as I'm a rusher and you just can't rush as you get heard from 100 metres away.

This although I do play it.

You mean you didn't like it being telegraphed that you where and easy one shot from miles away with a pistol?

Seems like all the leaks are happening now.

ZG002 · 25 Aug 2020 at 12:58

Sounds like one to miss for me.

Direct Sequel to Black Ops 1

The iconic Black Ops series is back with Call of Duty®: Black Ops Cold War – the direct sequel to the original and fan-favorite Call of Duty®: Black Ops.

Black Ops Cold War will drop fans into the depths of the Cold War’s volatile geopolitical battle of the early 1980s. Nothing is ever as it seems in a gripping single-player Campaign, where players will come face-to-face with historical figures and hard truths, as they battle around the globe through iconic locales like East Berlin, Vietnam, Turkey, Soviet KGB headquarters and more.

As elite operatives, you will follow the trail of a shadowy figure named Perseus who is on a mission to destabilize the global balance of power and change the course of history. Descend into the dark center of this global conspiracy alongside iconic characters Woods, Mason and Hudson and a new cast of operatives attempting to stop a plot decades in the making.

Beyond the Campaign, players will bring a Cold War arsenal of weapons and equipment into the next generation of Multiplayer and Zombies experiences.

Welcome to the brink. Welcome to Call of Duty®: Black Ops Cold War.

Can someone explain to me what the issue is with 150hp? Not being cheeky just curious. BLOPS was the last CoD I played prior to MW2019 but I never played it MP, just did the SP then dropped it as at the time I was more into Battlefield.

antijoke · 26 Aug 2020 at 12:31

In BO4 (from the little I played) it really seemed to mess with the feel of what you’re used to with CoD for me, weapons would take a lot longer to kill but you still had insta death sniper rifles so it was really frustrating to play.

But I bounced from the game hard the December after launch when they added their awful black market system, it might have become the norm for players as they got used to it.

I also saw from the leaked footage that health bars are back...FFS

Points to a november 13th release for the PS5. I doubt they'd release it before the PS5 comes out with Sony having the exclusivity. Wouldn't go down well with Sony if Xbox series X owners were playing the next gen version before Playstation 5 owners.

Also it's a bit shady that you have to pay extra for a version for next gen just because it includes the PS4 version as well. Why can't there just be a PS5 version on its own like with the standard PS4 version? I'll have to keep an eye out. Only buy the full game for the campaign, warzone is free.

Ta! So like a MP/Warzone hybrid (when you have a little armour) kind of feel? I'll have to try the beta when it's out, MW is the first CoD I've enjoyed in a long while. Not fussed on the MP maps the design is pretty hit or miss but I like the gameplay.

there will obviously be a stand-alone version for PS5, they’re also raising the base price of games, so it will be £10 more for next gen games. Sucks.

and this will set the precedent for all next-gen console AAAs to adopt that base price

Lol pricing is a joke. Was debating this for PS5 as always gone PC for COD, but the price is getting daft and PC is still cheaper.

Also not appealing to me this year anyway... think I’ll stick to MW on PC!
