Call of Duty: Black Ops

In my humble opinion, CoD BO1 is the best CoD in the series. I'll explain why. The game has a very strong plot, characters, and an interesting time period - the Cold War. There are no fancy weapons or anything like that here. It is very interesting to shoot from ordinary barrels. Interesting locations: Cuba, Vietnam, Baikonur. The appearance of Reznov from WaW is also encouraging. In technical terms, the game just holds up really well, despite the old engine, it’s very pleasant to shoot, and because of the plot, you don’t really pay attention to the outdated textures. In the story, we play as Alex Mason, who is being interrogated by the FBI to find out what these numbers are. The levels take place in his memories.

Top game! As always, an excellent plot (the Russians, of course, are bad again), graphics of the time when I only played it for the first time. There was a lot I liked about this game, from the weapons to the rides on different vehicles. The game is fire, I recommend passing it.

Cool storyline, well-designed weapons and models, good graphics (for its time), well, and the numbers... Mason.

On the one hand, the story here, in my opinion, is one of the best in the series. I really liked how they worked with the psychology of the characters and all these twisted events around the Cold War. It's not just "shoot everything that moves", but an attempt to tell some kind of story with intrigue. Of course, there were cliches in places, but overall, I was pleasantly surprised.

The gameplay, well, this is classic Call of Duty. On the one hand, this is good - familiar mechanics, dynamic shootouts, a lot of explosions and scripts. On the other hand, if you expect something radically new, then it is not here. But it all works very harmoniously and is addictive. I especially remember the missions where they gave some unusual equipment or changed the usual rhythm of the battle.

This installment from Treyarch got the company talking, the game is lush and colorful compared to the older installments, but its inherent optimization problem makes it not very good.

The localization is good - but there are some gags in the dialogues - and even effects during the dialogues.

The gameplay remained unchanged but they added a bunch of weapons and a new move - the dolphin dive, but it is not particularly useful. Treyarch's specialty in gameplay is its cruelty - compared to WaW, it is weaker, but still tough, which is even pleasing to the eyes.

The plot is fresh and exciting. The characters are well developed, even bringing back the old ones from WaW. Multiplayer is the bomb! She is the best of all! It has the first echoes of Class 10 from BO2, the weapons behave as they sho… Read full
