Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 review: More Destiny than Black Ops

The latest Black Ops 7 not only pales in comparison to Battlefield 6, but it also doesn't measure up to the previous Call of Duty games.

TheSixthAxis: 6 / 10 by Stefan L

Black Ops 7 really demonstrates the difficulties of Call of Duty's yearly release schedule and going back-to-back with its sub-series. It's not as rushed-feeling as Modern Warfare III was, that's for sure, but it's also not a consistent experience. The multiplayer and Zombies are solid continuations from last year, but there's not too much excitement in that, especially after the energy-sapping co-op campaign and Endgame.

Full Review

Nexus Hub: 6 / 10 by Sheree Buchholz

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 has great Zombies and nostalgic maps, but that doesn't excuse the tonally confused campaign, weak writing and technical issues that make it one of the more disappointing entries in the franchise.

User Reviews Summary generated by AI

The main pros of the game

  • Zombies Mode: Many users praised the Zombies mode, noting it as the standout feature of the game. Players appreciated its improved art direction, callbacks to previous maps, and the overall fun experience it provides, even if it is tied to a disappointing main game.
  • Multiplayer Mechanics: Some players found the addition of wall-jumping to be a useful tool for navigation, although this point is mixed with criticism about map design.
  • Nostalgia Elements: The return of the original Zombies cast and some familiar maps from previous titles were noted as positives, sparking some nostalgic feelings among long-time fans.

The main cons of the game

  • Terrible Campaign: The campaign received widespread criticism for being incoherent, poorly written, and lacking engaging gameplay. Players were frustrated by the inability to pause, constant crashes, and the overall design that felt more like a Warzone experience than a traditional campaign.
  • Technical Issues: Many players reported frequent crashes, poor optimization, and bugs that affected gameplay. The game also had issues with matchmaking, packet loss, and poor hit registration.
  • Corporate Greed: There was significant backlash against Activision for perceived greed, including the use of AI-generated assets and misleading marketing regarding features like skill-based matchmaking (SBMM).
  • Multiplayer Experience: The multiplayer mode was deemed clunky and lacking innovation compared to previous titles. Players complained about the lack of balance, poor map design, and a frustrating experience that felt punishing rather than fun.
  • High Price for Low Quality: Many users expressed that the game felt overpriced for the quality and content offered, likening it to a poorly executed DLC rather than a full-fledged game.

The features or elements that are missing from the game according to users

  • No Solo Campaign Play: Players lamented the inability to play the campaign solo without being connected to the internet and the lack of a pause feature.
  • Lack of Innovation: Users felt that the game did not bring anything new to the table, with many mechanics and assets being recycled from previous titles.
  • SBMM Issues: Despite claims of reduced SBMM, players reported that the matchmaking system remained frustratingly competitive, diminishing the casual play experience.
  • Missing Difficulty Settings: The campaign had no adjustable difficulty levels, which disappointed players who wanted a tailored experience.
  • Content and Features: Users noted the absence of beloved weapons and features from previous games, such as crossbows and ballistic knives, which contributed to a feeling of emptiness in the game.

Summary

  • In summary, while Call of Duty®: Black Ops 7 has its merits, particularly in the Zombies mode, it is largely criticized for its campaign, technical issues, and perceived corporate greed, leaving many fans feeling disillusioned with the franchise.
