Hate COD for the most part but found the BR to be pretty good.Played a bunch more today. The regular MP is growing on me we had a lot of fun with a full squad.
Blackout is definitely the best BR game on the market. Pretty much nothing about it annoys me. PUBG and Fortnite has its annoyences.

Honeymoon period.
Trust me, Blackout just doesn't have the legs. The design plays it way too safe.
The design plays it very accessible.
I consider you the best info regarding cod games here, how does this stack up? How's the different modes?
Watch all the big streamers like DrDisrespect and Viss and Lyrik and them and all the thing you said don't happen do quite often. They trade guns, give ammo and health to each other and communicate during fights and revive knocked squad mates all the time.Fortnite had more Twitch viewers on Black Ops 4's launch day. I think we can put the "Fortnite killer" moniker to rest now.
On a more serious note, I played a few hours tonight and found yet another reason why this BR mode is lacking.
The game struggles to support team oriented play.
- There's rarely incentive to trade guns, ammo, and items with teammates.
- Communicating with your teammates during a battle isn't as effective as it could be due to such short TTK. Pre gunfight it still matters though.
- Getting knocked results in instantaneous death 97% of the time. There's really no interesting scenarios that develop around a knocked teammate.
Playing duos or quads really feels like each team member is playing a solo match, where you ask your mates "Are you good?" at the end of each fight.
I feel like the human in that pig face episode of the Twilight Zone right now.
Yea I forgot about no SP. I never did play Blops 3 SP although I enjoyed the first two. Blops 3 is the last CoD I played so can't compare with the others, but the 4 hours or so I've put into so far I've been enjoying. It does seem really similar to what I remember from 3 so not sure if that's good or not.I impulse bought the game then when going through the menus remembered there was no single player mode How is everyone finding MP?

This is a COD game alright. Day one I was melting people, picking up quad feeds just three games in. Day two? I'm getting melted, and my teams are losing by 40 kills.
- Knocked players are not given any immunity. Attackers can keep holding fire to finish off knocked players and it will only take them an additional .25 seconds to do so.
- Reviving knocked players is much faster in Blackout. If I knock someone and then quickly run around a building, the enemy team can get a quick rez off. Letting them do that is detrimental to me winning.
- Gun fights are much faster in Blackout. If me and my teammate are both in an engagement, and I knock my guy, I can either finish him off, or run to my distressed teammate. In a game where gunfights frequently last less than 2 seconds, why would I run 5 seconds to go help my mate? I'll just take an additional .25 seconds to finish my guy off and hope my ally is OK by the time I get to him.
TDM has been pretty competitive. Every objective game type we’ve tried we always go against godly teams and get massacred.
Kill Confirmed the only objective type that has been decent.
This is the first COD I have played where I have more losses than wins. Ever. And I've played them all.
Could really go for a mercenary moshpit, but I know Treyarch hates that kind of a playlist because the population is always low.

Looking at gameplay videos of this and fortnite... it's pretty clear that this actually looks like a real game compared to the candy store game fortnite is.

Ah yeah, that's insane to top Activision's previous records, no easy feat, they are on to something.
For me, most every BR game I've seen looks completely uninteresting except this one. They look annoying, silly, or just buggy as hell. This is something that makes me as player feel like I can jump in and have fun with immediately. I don't even want to be good at building ramps and walls faster than other players while bunny hopping and no scoping.
It's apparently too hard to match skillz....This is acceptable team balancing, according to Treyarch.
What in the hell?

It's a Dora the Explorer Chess set vs a $500 Lord of the Rings themed Checkers set. There's a certain percentage of adults who would rather play checkers.
