Why Was Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 SO MEDIOCRE?!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ก.ค. 2024
- Black Ops 3 was the 2nd game made within the "advanced mobility" sub-genre of COD games. It was also the 2nd game under the 3-year development cycle. But despite the extra time and all the great COD games before it, Black Ops 3 would turn out to be anything but awesome.....

I love your content NFKRZ. You're a fucking legend!!!
Didn't expect to see you here, love the content, keep it up bro.
КОМРАД!1
Why do you look so depressed
It surprised me how he said he likes origins in chronicles but he’s shitting on shadows calling it complicated. Dude, they’re like the same thing pretty much. I’d argue the apothican servant is easier to build than the staffs.
it is really:kill a margwa kill a meatball open a purple pod they u have 1 of the best wonder weapons ever in all of zombies
To be fair. You don’t need the staffs for pack-a-punch. Turning power on is clear on the map and you can get away without a guide the first time you play it. Good luck doing that with Shadows of Evil.
@@loganolson3968what are you on? You don't need AS to get to the pack a punch either, and unless you have 0 curiosity, turning the power on is pretty straight forward as well in SoE, you don't need no guides on any map unless you're going for EEs
@@loganolson3968 you shouldn't need a guide for soe after the first time ever unless you're doing the ee
Because shadows of evil is arguably the worst map out of black ops 3. Literally never had fun on that map in my life.
I respect his views on the multiplayer but the Zombies...c´mon.
Black Ops 3 Zombies is exactly the opposite of mediocrity.
Its crazy how he thinks he knows whats right for zombies even though he wont sink time into learning the maps and easter eggs. Does he really think people would still play zombies if it was as braindead as getting perks getting guns then killing zombies for an hour?
@@thecandyman9957 yes, thats why chronicles outsold the dlcs 😂 and why do you think they made it so simple and easy in cold war? Because bo4 was “too hard” for everyone so they gave up. Even tho that game is probably the easiest aside from cold war. I love doing easter eggs, and love the zombies story. I have since bo1, but imo bo1, 2 and 4 have a lot more fun maps and ways to play compared to bo3. Bo3 story was alright, but it ended worse than bo4
@@thecandyman9957 There's a divide in the community between people who want a fun survival side mode and people who want to learn the all the steps to all the quests on every map. If you want casual fun you don't want to have to learn all the shit required to get the weapons the map is designed around.
If they do make future quest maps it would be better if it didn't require **every** player to know what they were doing and also try to make things intuative rather than requiring a guide.
If you spend extra money, then it’s the opposite of mediocrity
@@thecandyman9957 he grew to like that kind of zombies as he stated in his revisiting cod ww2 video.

And when I release the most epic zombies exepereince ever(Disputed) the world just frickin train go boom
“5 years ago 30,000 trains went boom, and the world just fucking watched”
BO1: Greatest Campaign
BO2: Greatest Multiplayer
BO3: Greatest Zombies
BO4: Greatest Disappointment
that’s big facts honestly
Bo2 multiplayer was mad
agreed with this list, but I thought black ops 2 had a better campaign. I liked the multiplayer in bo1 more than bo2, but thats just my opinion. I didnt really like the maps in black ops 2.
You could say bo4 had the best battle royale mainly because it was the only game which had it
HappyLongNose battle royale isn’t good to begin with
Me being a hardcore zombies fan I never thought how casual people would think of the more complex maps. Because for me I can do all of shadows without even thinking. Same with der eisendrache and origins. Which is also weird to think about how you probably didnt even get the elemental bows on der eisndrache. All im saying is I agree with you on a casual perspective but as a hardcore player bo3 is my favorite zombies gamemode
Yeah but also a lot of these complaints are kinda dumb and i dont think hes really played a lot of the map, saying SOE doesnt have enough stuff to bring him back while having probably the most content packed into a zombies map, and saying theres nowhere to camp but all of the teleporters are some of the best places in the entire series to camp in
He’s being very over dramatic about how complicated bo3 is.
Bo3 is the golden age of zombies and is the best for casual and hardcore players. They have maps where hadcore players can go all out like DE, SoE and Origins but still have plenty of casual maps like Der Riese, Kino, and all of the other WaW maps. If they just did a Cronicles 2 and brought over all of the other Bo2 maps I would never have to think about any other zombies game again.
Graphically this game is still ahead of it's time. The detail and colors in the maps are amazing
you mean stylistically then
@@leenguyen6056 idk I think it looks much better than some of the newer cods especially trash vanguard. Like I said though I think its the colors and detail of bo3 that make it stand out to people. It definitely felt next gen af when bo3 released compared to ghost and many other titles at that time and even now.
@@cdhall1849 The colours has nothing to do with the graphics. If you truly believe bo3 has better graphics than Vanguard then you’re biased and delusional since vanguard objectively has better graphics.
@@leenguyen6056 lol I'm not biased it's just a opinion. Vanguard is truly hated to begin with and graphics is one of the 10,000 problems with it. I just dont agree considering b03 and b04 are 4 years apart and they look the exact same to most people lol. And b04 was released right before mw19. And lighting and coloring are apart of graphics.
@@cdhall1849 How is it an opinion if it’s objectively not true? Any aspect which affects the graphical outcome is superior with Vanguard. You may be speaking of the artstyle (which seem to childlike and boring to me tbh) which is subjective. The graphics however are not
WAW: the game started the Black Ops Series
BO1: Masterpiece
BO2: Same as BO1
BO3: train go boom
BO4: ??????????
BO1: Masterpiece
WaW : Awesome
why does black ops 2 get dickrided so hard? black ops 1 was also a masterpiece.
Let's be honest, the "masterpiece" should go to *world at war*
Bo1 loveable? You mean a billion times better black ops 2.
The most memorable quote in black ops 3 “train goes boom”
That’s legit the only quote I remember from this game and I played it recently, there are games I played several years ago and I still remember a lot of quotes but for BO3 that’s the only quote I remember.
The only memorable quote
Go boom
So true
outcome?
38:26 " you just get surrounded so fast because you can't repair barricades and you can't remember where they're coming from because you can't repair the barricade from where they come from" fucking had me dying 🤣
If you’re trying to repair barricades in bo3, you’re playing wrong. Barriers just mess up your training routes since the zombies are delayed coming out of the walls.
@@FlyingPenguin196 no shit, repairing barricades in high rounds is long gone

Act Mans take on bo3 zombies in this video has not aged well at all lol
Honesty Act Man has a casual gamer level and the game creates a high skill gap between casual and good players and he surely wasn't doing very good as he never mastered movements etc
A lot of people hated black ops 3 zombies at launch, he probably just had that expierence and held on to it
My opinion about BO3:
Campaign: total shite
Multiplayer: half bad, half good
Zombies: really good
the zombies is honestly the only reason I get and play cod lol

@@NoobMender no
Who else can remember which modern wafare they played until they see references lmao
38:42 boy if you are trying to repair barricades on round 22 then you’re the one with the problem lmao
The multiplayer is a lot more skilled than boots on the ground in my opinion. The amount of ways you could approach an area of the map with the increased maneuverability meant that you can actually counter people holding an angle while headglitching. While airborne you are harder to hit and it is harder to hit others meaning better aim is required. Camping was just a lot less viable in this game. The specialists also added a fun new element to the multiplayer.
Agreed 100%. This is the 1st COD game I actually felt connected to the different characters and their factions. Not just a generic army guy. And the ability to run up on campers and take their advantage away was pure bliss.
By the way if you like BO3 movement you should try titanfall 2 it has a similar movement but more extreme
Ur not wrong but I love the shooting and movement in WW2. Feels like the og classics like bo2. But I do love bo3 aswell, both take a lot of skill honestly

The explanation here of how the Campaign story COULD have amounted to something really sums up how I always felt about it. Like, there was a SUPER interesting story there waiting to be told! They just really dropped the ball on having all these random events MEAN anything.
The fact that the campaign doesn’t connect to the previous black ops games and didn’t have the multiple endings like black ops 2 turned me off of this game
You die in the first mission
Jack S Ikr!
There is a reference to the Los Angeles attack and Raul Menendez in one of the missions. Not to mention Nova 6 is used to kill Kane.
Jack S I always felt the story was unnecessary given how Black Ops 2 ended, especially if you got the best ending.

And it's better then BO3's campaign despite just being a glorified tutorial
@@jasoninkurai5463 its a prequel so i guess its better
Tbh 😂😂😂
They were making one but Activision forced them to cancel cause it was taking too much time. Do your fucking research
This was made 5 years ago when shadows of evil still wasn’t as appreciated as it is today, shadows of evil for some people is arguably the greatest zombies map if not in top 5 of all time, the theme, the music, the size of the map, the buildables, apothicans servant, and the Easter egg is not as hard as everyone makes it to be, this map has had such a big impact on zombies that it will be remembered for years and years to come, shadows of evil was a masterpiece.
Also gobblegums we’re greatest addition to zombies, giving less good players a push forward and makes things a little easier and if you don’t like the gobblegum guess what you don’t have to pay for them to have a good time in prestige 9 and still find myself using classic gobblegums some games.
@@aidankolb2583great take was literally baffled the whole time I was hearing him talk about zombies
Idk how tf he found shadows of evil hard. ITS LITERALLY an easier version of mob of the dead. When ur in beast form icons pop all over ur fucking screen telling u where to go and hit as well lol. I feel like he loaded into the map, ran around for 10 rounds, then quit cus he didnt bother to actually "play" the map.
The map has an intuitive way of guiding u to each location and fully unlocking an area as soon as u spawn into the map. I'd understand his pain if unlocking pack a punch was the equivalent of trying to upgrade origins staffs where u need an online guide just to know wtf to do.
the kind of quests you had to do in maps like shadows are what made it so much fun for me. sure, it could be a bit more direct in telling you how to unlock PaP and such, but i found it to be really fun. as for the zombies keeping you on your feet at all times, i think the extra hit you can take and being able to reload while sprinting helped with this. the game encourages you to move more. the dlc maps were an absolute blast, with gorod and der eisendrache being two of my absolute favorite maps.
I feel like everyone doesn’t know world at war is part of the black ops story.

The fact that you just summarized BO3 maps as "Generic Small 3 lane maps" is rediculous. The maps in this game are the best since Bo1 and also vary in size/design. Hunted is also big map made for sniping.
But... Its 3 Lane... Like others. Why play bo3 when you can play bo2, bo1, mw2? The inovation is important but need careful approach.
@@christik100 Bo3 maps have wallrunning, swimming and platforming. Bo1/2 maps are just people running around. Completely different experience.
@@sosososniperss4486the advanced movement doesn’t change the map layout it’s still 3 lane garbage but now I can use a jump pack,it didn’t magically make new lanes or routes for me to take because they just slapped invisible barriers everywhere,like nuk3town,you can’t even jump over the busses because there’s an invisible wall.
@@sosososniperss4486 i personally feel you just like the taste of Bo3's D in your mouth? Ffs its not even top 10 cods.
everyone can be in agreement how off his take was on the zombies, because why the hell would you repair barricades, getting overwhelmed is annoying but change up your strategy, if you hate gums or complexity you can simply avoid it on almost all of the maps by not running gums or playing the game in a simpler way like just pap'ing and playing, this was the evolution and peak of zombies as a mode with some blemishes.

Nobody complains that some places the zombies come from on soe dont have barriers. NOBODY THINKS ITS AN ISSUE. Repairing barriers is a useless strat by round 4. Just learn where the zombies come from. There are camping spots on shadows too, on top of the ruby rabbit and keeping the water front door closed and be infront of it so you're in that disctrict. Saying shadows is bad because you cant camp is dumb. On some maps, like shi no numa, you cant camp. On other maps, like buried, you can only camp. On some maps, you cant train, like buried. On other maps, like ascension, you can only train. Not being able to camp/train or only being able to camp/train doesnt make a map bad. Also, who says gobblegums were bad? There are purely optional and not required at all. Der eisendrache is not a bad map because you cant camp. There are camping spots, such as where quick revive is, uptop on the church and inside any wundershpere.
There was so much to do in bo3 I played it for 3-4 years. We would have full parties on ps4 doing custom game like hide n seek or playing and together. Camping with 5 players in multiplayer. Fucking around with my friends doing the co op campaign. Last but not least completing all the Easter eggs on zombies.

Act man has gotta be beyond the most casual call of duty player and here he is giving everyone a lecture on what’s good and bad. I love most of his vids but his review on black ops 3 is actually hilarious due to how bad its is 😂
That moment when Frost and Roach, 2 silent protagonists, are more memorable to me than Player.
It’s the dude from callisto protocol
BO3 should have played in the wake of Raul Menendez’s prison break and the murder of Woods, then you hunt down Raul against the authority of the US and the military for personal revenge and throughout the story, you begin to make harder and harder decisions while putting others at risk. By the end of the campaign, Raul is killed, and you (the player) begin to realize that you were the enemy of the story.
*everybody liked that*
I fucking blew Menendez’s head off in my playthrough so that wouldn’t make sense for me
Spec ops the line would be great for you
but raul going to prison isnt the canon ending, the meet up with old alex mason is the canon. and to get that ending you would have to kill menendez. but good idea i like it.
@@morepepper7075 you can get that ending with raul alive, you just need to keep chloe alive and menendez wont be able to escape
modern warfare: giant nuke explodes right in front of you and your helicopter comes crashing down
bo3: train go boom
i would hate to say that isnt true
Bo3: bye bye arms
This guy is bringing the shits
My personal favorite of the entire series. I really like Shadows of Evil and all the mysteries in it. Shadows has so much content it's actually insane that it's a non-DLC map, but that's the issue, it's not DLC. I feel Shadows is a great zombies map for real zombie's fans but not for casual players. Same goes for Origins in zombie chronicles, it's too Easter egg driven to be played casually. They have too many moving parts that can't really be learnt without looking it up. I really like all the maps in BO3 zombies, and I played them years after newer COD games came out.
Most thought out comment lol. Crazy how some people don’t understand that some people just want to kill Zombies.
Am I the only one who remembers that an absolutely staggering amount of world details, backstory, and context to everything in the game is on the computer terminal in Players hub space on the in game internet/ wikipedia expy?
i love how he expects rebuilding barriers to do anything. bruh bo3 zombies are on crack the barriers do literally nothing
Thank you
He prolly goes for carpenter drops with pure excitement
Neither they were doing anything even in World at War on rounds higher than 4, dunno what he was talking about
@@mikeydicola LMAO this is great
Rebuilding barriers is good if you need a few extra points, and that's about it.
World at War: Let's have a memorable story.
Black ops: Let's expand on it.
Black ops 2: Let's continue on the previous story.
Black ops 3: what the actual fuk is story anyway lol
Edit: Thanks for the heart Act Man!
Sonic Sez Traps are Gay Black Ops IV: Fuck it I’m just gonna do this for money.
Bo4 cough cough battle royale that no one wanted
Bo4: LMAO FUCKKKK THE STORY!!!
yagirl Lauren I think removing the campaign was a step in the right direction, they had nothing they could have done further
The Story is T R i A N G O B O O M
I could understand some of the other bo3 maps I guess, but the trials in shadows of evil were so simple and made unlocking pack a punch so much more rewarding
Take it back this game was goated
I tried playing it again, and had no patience with the slow cutscenes and boring gameplay. I uninstalled it a day after installing it. The multiplayer is a cringy joke. It's Titanfall but with no dynamic movement or freedom to explore the environment.
Campaign- honestly I don’t get it so bad
Multiplayer- decent
Zombies- Jesus level
Agreed act man apparently has been asleep the past 8 years 9f zombies evolution lol
Multiplayer - the best of the jet pack games (AW, BO3 and IW)
Zombies - it entirely depends on what *YOU* like
Yeah shadow of evil was the best zombie map I played because it had everything I wanted in it a small story a semi boss fight like the three handed thing good zombie good map and I played it over 50 hour with my friends and we never got bord of it
Black Ops 3 objectively had the best zombies in the franchise. They had literally everything. Good mechanics, 3 hit down no jug finally, and maps both for the people hungering for complex stories and easter eggs, and remastered versions of all the original zombies maps that were perfect for hardcore fans and casuals who just want to load in and shoot zombies without a bunch of stuff to worry about.
@@MeruOnYT Black Ops 3 zombies is definitely a solid advancement for those who have been long time hardcore fans of the series. But I think I can understand where Act Man comes from, he took a break from the series for a while and probably didn't keep up or consistently play zombies as extensively as others. So he didn't feel like zombies needed to evolve as much as it did to him.
But for new players, I don't think Shadows of Evil was a good map to choose as the default one for gameplay purposes. Should have had a simple basic map and a more advanced one.
>makes a blops 3 review
>puts blops 2 theme in the background
Thats hella savage
@@AwesomeBrickSauce the main theme for BO3 is pretty cool but that's about it
Well it's making me want to buy Bo2 to replay it just for the campaign because I ain't playing MP on PC and I ain't fucking playing it on Console, and I ain't buying it again.
Tnamrod no shit. The only games I win, I only won because our hacker out hacked the enemy team hacker
@@AwesomeBrickSauce the zombies and mp theme are really good though (mostly zombies)
@@AwesomeBrickSauce listen to some of the themes they're actually good. Chasing secrets, ignition etc.
Its crazy looking back on this video to be honest. No way did he call shadows tedious, like did bro want a flat zombie maps where all the perks and pack a punch were infront of you at spawn and you have 1,000,000 points instantly
i’m 22 and I absolutely loved this game when it came out. i got to 6th prestige in MW3, 7th in black ops 2, skipped ghosts and advanced warfare bc i thought i was done with the series as a whole. i thought it was gonna be dead within 5 years lol how naive i was. but when black ops 3 came out i had to get it bc i was a hardcore zombie fan. i got it expecting the multiplayer to be absolutely garbage but i actually played until master prestige, and enjoyed it quite a bit. i think your criticisms are valid, and playing it nowadays isn’t the same, it’ll always hold a lot of sentimental value with all the fun i had with it with friends.
Excuse me, but do you have a moment to talk about a very important issue?
*train go boom*
Yes I do. Please explain in the most confusing ways why train go boom.
In long term, *Train go Big boom*

Isnt most of bo3 run and gun? Other than nacht and verruckt
I thought that bo3 zombies was better that bo2 and bo4.
Bo2 has some really good maps, but has some weak points. Bo3 has more good maps
@@harrishunt4545 you have opinion I respect but I liked bo2 more than both mainly because in bo3 it was a complicated you had to set up gobblegum and same for nazi zombies in for ww2 too complicated bo4 was ok I never got into it or played enough to criticize it but it had more things to make it a bit more complicated first time I played and didn't really understand it but I didn't play enough to criticize alot of it. That's just my opinion for zombies bo2 was more casual just spawn in start your game, for me the building system was weird to get used to but I did it's not too bad if you aren't really after building everything.
@@Tap2Shoot bo2 zombies is also complicated. Mob is just as complicated as shadows. Most of the bo2 maps are complicated. Bo3 is roughly the same.
I love act man but this is fr the one video that didn't age well😂😂😂 just the one
Honestly the people who like black ops 3 now are the 7 year olds from 2015 who just didn’t grew up during cod in it’s prime. And that’s okay. They have no control what era of cod they would grow up in.
Nah, I grew up with prime era cod, and black ops 3 by far has the most fun, arcady, fast multiplayer.
It’s truly a mid ass game compared to the games before it

Mush for real bro like how can u not like shadows
@@PaulisInclusion "iTs ToO cOmPlIcAtEd
ImLosingMySanity It can get tedious at times but its pretty good
@@PaulisInclusion His points are valid though. You can't play Shadows without doing all the objectives and it's not for people who just want to hop into zombies and have fun. This wouldn't be a problem if there was just one or two other maps that were like that that you didn't have to purchase, but Shadows is all you get. If you compare Bo3 to WaW, Bo1, and Bo2, you can see how zombies overtime has changed from a fun arcade mode to one long fetch quest. And if you like that sort of thing, good for you. You're gonna love Bo3, but to those who don't, you're kind of shit out of luck.
None of the "easter egg" quests are fun to do, none of the steps make sense, and figuring it out on your own is just impossible. I agree 100% with him, the only "easter eggs" that were any fun (and actual easter eggs) were the ones in Der Riese way back in 2009. Oh you don't know how many 360 no scopes you need to do while standing on this specific pixel? Well that's too bad here just run around in a circle for 30 minutes with the last zombie, that sure is fun.
the avatar part really gave me chills, just the story and clips of the show being shown on screen is enough to make me wanna go and rewatch it lmao
The realistic difficulty on the campaign makes ya really utilize those abilities. I didn’t even realize you can go invisible but when you doing 2 players and you got to Rez em you pop the camo and get them. Also hacking the robots really is helpful as well they can take more then 1 shot.
I like how he said the best maps were the simple maps and then listed orgins.
I still find origins way fucking harder then any of the BO3 maps
@@adriansrsa90 I mean, barricades help but alright.
Dutch Van Der Linde with the zombies on bo3 especially on gorod. That shit doesn’t help past round 5 and you don’t even really need them then.
He didn’t mention them together, he was just listing the remasters available
Dutch Van Der Linde barricades are so useless that even the characters have quotes saying how useless barricades are
Black Ops 1 has Good setup for future story .
Black Ops 2 has absolutely awesome and refreshing game play and a dope follow up Story
.
Black Ops 3 has a ....ah ..
it has a "Train go Boom"
Black Ops 4 has a 404 not found
HCII bo4 didnt have a campaign, 404 not found is an error on computers

@@ripetika1600 I cant tell if your making a joke or being serious about it

The campaigen was interesting (wierd, but interesting nonetheless) I think I would have based the story on the train sequance to establish the difference between Taylor's memories and Player's death.
Missions that were suppose to be Taylor's memories wouldn't be in the train and in uncronological order while whenever it's about Player's death it will be somewhat drippy but informatuve and related to the train

Sans maybe but with how mainstream youtube is it’s not unlikely that adults watch the same shit as teens. Like my Drama teacher watches PlayStation Access and other gaming channels while my History Teacher watches Oversimplified. Shit, my Science teacher watches Vanossgaming.
It’s not that uncommon for stuff like that to happen so he could be telling the truth
@Sans /r/ihavereddit
@Sans r/ihavereddit like shut up
We can’t deny how great and fun the zombies was on black ops 3 I never had so much fun playing zombies than in Black Ops 3
so you have dlc then?
Hail Lamp Yes I bought every zombie maps and they were all very good
Hail Lamp even if you don’t have the dlc shadows of evil is still a top tier map
r3al B00gieboi You are absolutely right Shadows was one of the hardest yet very nice map
@Taelin Cusic no
bro seriously is saying the zombies is bad 💀💀
BO1: Best campaign
BO2: Best multiplayer
BO3: Best zombies
World at War? All of the above
There's no Avenged Sevenfold in this game. That's why it's so mediocre.
Edit: Damn, this is the first time Act Man's ever given me a heart. I'm guessing he's an A7X fan, too.
Not a full song but they did make Jade Helm
You could just used the background music setting in multiplayer. It had every song from the previous soundtracks

Personally, Shadows of Evil was my first zombies experience and I absolutely loved it.
It wasn’t my first but it’s my tied favourite with mob of the dead and origins
It was a great map, but it was very complicated for a launch map. (Which I personally liked playing zombies for a long time)
Dynasty987 in pretty sure you have to have played it a lot to start liking it, I didn’t like it at first but it’s my second favorite map of all time
Big Penis Five, Shangri la and Verrückt make Shadows look like the easiest map ever
Ok Great True, however, for those new to Zombies starting out on Shadows it would seem very complex, me personally started in late WaW so for those people who played a long time shadows would seem easier. To summarize my point was simply that newcomers to Zombies would see Shadows as a hard map.
Multiplayer was alright but zombies? Man straight up the best version of cod zombies EVER.
Zombies was the best in the series
I really liked the Austin powers reference at the beginning instant respect

Huh?

I honestly think this is one of the best CoD games to this day. It's not as over the top as something like Advanced Warfare, and while it certainly has its flaws, there was so much they managed to do right. I was gripped the entire lifetime of BO3, and even for a while after it stopped getting support, I still enjoyed what it had to offer.
I stopped watching the moment he compared Shadows of evil (Treyarch's Mona Lisa) to fucking Final Reich. That's a fucking war crime.
