I played this Call of Duty solely for Outbreak, I found this form of zombies to be more relaxed, refreshing and challenging in its own way. My only criticism is that there was a huge lack of content, they had something beautiful they could have built upon, but unfortunately this never happened. It’s a shame we haven’t seen a similar, improved version to the outbreak mode since this game.

i love ColdWar this game surely isn't the best cod game, but it's also no where near the worst. it has a solid multiplayer, really fun zombies, especially the Die Maschine & Forsaken maps, i didn't personally enjoy the campaign, but i've heard from friends that it's very good, the movement does feel a little slow compared to newer COD titles, but it's good if you're not a particularly aggressive player even 4 years after launch, i still have no problem finding matches & they're always full, it has a mixture of both long time & new players overall, i'd give this game a 8/10 {also, for the record, i have over 1000 hours on this game on PlayStation, & recently made the switch to PC, hence my low play time, but trust me when i say i have a lot of experience, i played the beta for it, the pre-season, & the full game from season 1 to well past season 6 all the way into vanguard's 4th season}

My favorite Call of Duty since the first Black Ops ; the two stories blend together perfectly. The story is great, the new characters are awesome(especially Russell Adler), and the gameplay is buttery smooth as usual from this team. And the soundtrack is amazing! A must-play for my fellow "Cold War kids", who grew up in the 1980s "Red Scare" era U.S.

I only play FPS Campaigns and this COD is ONE OF THE BEST. Graphic is still amazing in 2024, story is okay and some missions are mindblowing - almost all of them. The only drawback for me that is TOO short. You can finished it in a couple of hours but still - it is like a great action movie from 80's and you are the main hero. Plus you can choose your fav ending. I finished it twice on Veteran level and that is not bad for 56 old gamer:))
