Call of Duty: Black Ops IIII

I'm still enjoying this game but my biggest issue by far is the snipers. They are rage inducing in their BS. Even when boosted by Crash they can still OHK you :mad:
 
So after some time on BLOPS4......

My previous go to - Core TDM - is gash. So im glad I have the option of Blackout. Tbh its the only reason I bought it (and to try and get my head around zombies).

Im an outspoken critic of CoD. Have been for a while. But blackout and zombies save this release for me. Also, to be fair, TDM would be good also if it wasnt for the hit and miss (literally) netcode. Such a shame.

Loving blackout. Tickrate / netcode issues appear less pronounced in this game mode so far. Had the odd dodgy wtf moments but generally its been good.

Technically blackout isnt CoD, not really, but its nice to have a battle royale style game mode in the CoD world.

Zombies is epic. A game within a game. Im rubbish at it but its great fun!

Dare I say it, but this feels like the best CoD release in a long time which, believe it or not, I am really happy about. A lot of content and Im personally not minding the lack of campaign.

I just wish wish wish they would sort servers / netcode out.
 
I've decided to sell this. I have been enjoying Blackout but there's only so much I can play it. The traditional multiplayer has already got a bit stale for me, it feels like I've been playing it for months rather than a couple of weeks. I think it might have something to do with four of the MP maps being remakes.

Also, I have often played quite a bit of splitscreen multiplayer on previous CoD games, because a few of my friends enjoy the franchise but don't own a console. Unfortunately the splitscreen multiplayer on this is completely broken. Between the framerate, massive black bars either side of the display image, and the reduced graphical quality, me and my friends haven't wanted to play it.
 
For the first time in 20 odd years of gaming I've asked for a refund for a game, that being BO4. Zombies doesn't interest me, Blackout is amusing for a while but nothing to write home about and the multiplayer just makes me want to break stuff. There's simply too much questionable crap in it, the spawns are completely borked, the snipers are ridiculous, it's just not fun. I was in denial all the way to level 6 thinking it'd get good once I can create a class but even then it's crap. This is probably also in no small part down to me, gaming seems to interest me less and less over time and I find my tolerance for crap stuff in games is getting less as well. Whereas in the old days I'd simply carry on for that emblem / weapon / whatever, nowadays I don't care much for the unlocks so I play purely for fun, and on that front, BO4 just didn't do it for me.

Ah well, back to Destiny then, and when my refund is processed I'll get RDR2.

You can get refunds for console games now?

That's why I buy games on disc. That way if you don't like them you can just sell them on.

Yep, the resale value of games makes it a no-brainer in my opinion. I just sold BO4 for £42 on ebay, it only cost me £45 in the first place so once I've paid ebay fees I'll probably have only lost £5 or £6. Not bad really.
 
Just got a £5 off code from Amazon - for PS4 or XBone - I'll never use it so it might be of use to someone:

Have fun whoever gets it - maybe post back to let others know you've claimed it (assuming Amazon will let you :D)
 
Yep same, someone can fill their boots as I'd rather remove my testicles with a blunt, salt laced knife then roast them in an open fire kebab style than buy this.

First COD game that I've played a lot of in many years, sure it has flaws, but man am I enjoying the living crap out of it. Prestige 3 already ... wife's been moaning a bit that that I've spent too much time playing games of late :p
