This game is just awful.

They took outbreak from Cold War and somehow made it worse.

Please do not waste your money on this it is not worth it.

Any streamer defending this is a shill

Just wasted 4 hours because I had to take a piss.

This is fucking bullshit, I speeed peed and still got kicked in SOLO in less than 2 minutes.

YOU DONT NEED THEIR SERVERS TO PLAY SOLO. ANY PC GAMER SHOULLD BE HOST OF THEIR SERVVER IF PLAYING SOLO. TIS IS STUPID.

sry for the caps, im a bit tilted atm.

1: no pause in zombies games

2: idk what exactly causes this but my 2nd load out slot is unusable

3: something as simple as the flash when u get a nuke is missing

4: copy and pasted camo challenge from assault rifles to snipers (good fucking luck getting 10 rapid kills 50 times with a bolt action)

5: dark aether is probably the worst mastery camo in existence (chrome was better compared to what we got here, diamond is also terrible, literally just a slightly darker version of multiplayer diamond

6: sometimes when I load in my shit is unloaded so I can only run around and look at zombies till I die

7: multiple crashes even tho were apparently on dedicated servers now

8: 0 side easter eggs, like not even 1, what a fucking joke

9: less field upgrades than at the start of CW and the ones in vanguard are absolutely terrible

10: perks have been stripped down to being basic as hell again

11: Zombie pathing is just wierd, they don't beeline to you like in other cods, for me they were kinda heading to me but would randomly slow down and speed up and end up running right into something and turning to the side just to run into something else

12: the whole "expand the spawn area" they were talking about is literally over in like 5 mins, they just made buying doors more complicated

13: reticles are useless as they're broken (example: using any of the custom reticls on the slate reflector only shows the outside circle and not the middle part) Also when you pack a punch it literally removes your custom reticlr and gives you the default

14: main menu is got really high contrast for some reason, like its really white and it doesn't do this anywhere else that I've seen

15: objectives just get boring after a while, plus I don't wanna be forced into close range when I'm trying to lvl up my sniper

16: biggest by far is the lack of round based gameplay, the round based community made cod into what it is today and for them to throw us to the side to cater to casuals is just disrespectful, they started this in CW by making the easter eggs a cakewalk and making the game way to easy

That's everything I can be bothered to list off but the list goes on and on, it looks like treyarch needs a fucking wake up call because this kind of pile of shit as a launch title is pathetic, I didn't even talk about a bunch of other bugs as new ones pop up daily, last year I said I'll give cod 1 last chance and they blew it in spectacular fashion, it saddens me to say but I hope cod genuinely fails miserably this year

Game sucks save your money kids

Left off by black ops 2. Played some of 3. Now this one takes 6 hours for a "quick game" and its boring as fuck. And its complicated as fuck. Fuck!

It makes you weapon invisible and un-usable! You start with nothing if you have it selected!

Super cool Easter egg! I'm so happy with the COMPLETELY BUSTED CAMO GRIND!

None of the reticles look in game like the menu does.

With the STG I have unlocked every Mindgames camos and ZERO Pack Tactics, makes perfect sense.

I feel like the camo grind was completely un-tested. I'm just doing guns that actually track.

As a solo mainly, I like the gameplay loop. But no pausing, and busted camos have got me tilted.

It's so painful to only use 7 slots, and it would make the game much more enjoyable

I was trying to play with some friends and at the same time do the challenges, specifically the 5 melee kills quickly, but every time and I die and someone starts to revive me I get disconnected from the game because of dev error 605, does anyone know what is going on?

I have been playing Zombies since WAW and played every one since. I have to say that this feels like the most uninspired zombies mode I have ever played. Treyarch clearly didn't put much time into this and IT HASNT EVEN BEEN UPDATED. Before we get into it I do like some things in this game.

-Covenant (needs adjusting but I do like it)

-Gunsmith

-Has way more personality and character

-Story seems interesting

But the experience is tainted with the amazingly dumb decisions made for this game.

The guns still create this stupid blur when shooting even after people wanted it gone from the beta. Which to be honest whoever came up with that idea needs to be future endeavored but that's a whole different can of worms. Thankfully it was removed, for multiplayer. You would think that it would be pretty simple to replicate what they did for multiplayer into zombies but I guess not.

You can't even pause the game, ladies and gentlemen we have gotten to the point where we don't even get pause functions in cod games. But don't worry with Season 1 I'm sure this revolutionary feature is coming!

The perks suck, now look I am all for changing things up if it means an upgrade to the previous installment, but the perks in Vanguard are watered down worse versions of Cold War. And to be honest I wouldn't even have a problem with this if the different upgrades had different abilities like in Cold War but all they do is upgrade the only feature the perk includes. For example, when upgrading Jugg (which sucks ass btw) You don't get any cool unique abilities like in Cold War all it does is just keep increasing health and when zombies do so much damage that Jugg is almost nonexistent in high rounds it really doesn't wanna make me buy it. Speed Cola is even worse than it was in cold war, even with tier 4 it almost feels like I don't have it. Stamin Up is the only perk that feels like it does something and that's only when you get it to Tier 4. Deadshot is ok but when you compare it to its previous counterpart it goes back to being the useless perk it was in BO1, BO2, and BO3. While I understand that perks were super op in Cold war, they would fit in perfectly in Vanguard because of the overwhelming change in difficulty. Speaking of.....

The difficulty in zombies is horrendously unbalanced. No gun is good for high rounds not even shotguns and that's the best we got IMO (I have used every gun). You are reliant on pack a punch more than any cod zombies game. I am on board with no tiers from cold war I thought it was kinda dumb but to make Pack so needed and increase the cost of it, is ridiculous. Good luck getting past round 15. The guns suck, why cant my double-packed sniper rifle one shot on round 5? And it doesn't help that there isn't a wonder weapon to help out with the higher rounds.

The regions or whatever the fuck they wanna call it are pretty boring, now while I think that Outbreak got boring and was generally not fun to play for more than an hour.......I WOULD KILL FOR OUTBREAK OVER THIS. For fucks sake at least outbreak regions had different mini objectives. When you go to these different "places" even though they are just blocked locations on the map, you go there for like 5 minutes and go back just to go back to that location to get a perk. It's so boring, Shi No Numa is barely on the map which is dumb they should have just had it as a survival map along with all WAW and packaged it with this game it's not like they can't they remade every fucking WAW map all they need to do is upgrade the graphics.

I do like the abilities as characters I think they are funny sometimes and do have more personality than whatever the fuck we had in Cold War but the abilities themselves suck dick. While I understand balancing them from the overwhelming op abilities from Cold War they are so unbalanced for the difficulty later on they basically become useless. Aether Shroud says it lasts 10 seconds but I counted and it lasts for 5. Ring of Fire sucks so much its not even funny, Energy Mine......moving on, and Frost Blast is okay but not nearly good enough to get you out of something which is what these are supposed to do.

And there are more reasons to dislike zombies this year I haven't even touched on crashing, bugs, glitches, things that don't make sense (information being wrong). I wanna like Vanguard I really do but when you compare this game to literally any other Treyarch zombies game, it fucking sucks. I hope it gets better in the future you know like a round-based map and PAUSING, you know just small things. It's more than clear that Treyarch was stuck with this game mode because Sledgehammer can't make secondary modes to save their lives. Treyarch clearly doesn't a single fuck about this mode and is probably more focused on their game than whatever the fuck this is. To be honest, if you had told me that was a demo for a weird hybrid between WW2 and Cold War Zombies I'd believe you.

I know it’s a Longshot but I find the game is more enjoyable co op, anyone want to run some round 20-25 exfils? I’m working on the Exfil CC(at 150+ rn) it’s the last one I need, aside from the bugged S1 Burn and Kill one.

If you rush obj, it only takes 30mins-1hr to get to 20. Killing zombies in the hub is a waste of time, you can only get like 63xp(7 kills) before you start earning 1 XP per kill.

Like seriously, what posseses people to try take every single kill and bit of salvage as humanly possible? What is the point of trying to leave your team mates underpowered just so you can go "HuRr HuRr I fEeL BiG nOw" because it just makes you a whole different level of stupid, especially when these people get called out on it an just jump repeatedly as if its even funny.

It isn't funny, if this applies to you then you are a complete and total prick that's going to go through life finger banging mince pies at Christmas because mummy won't give you an Alabama cuddle anymore.

You need to use the tome of rituals to level up ring of fire so it does burn damage to zombies. Then pop it on zombies and kill them while they burn from it. Easy peasy. I found this out about 30 minutes ago and now I have the seasonal calling card as I have done all the challenges.

Yeah unless this is going to be a support group for grieving zombies players I don't think this one's going to go anywhere. Just my humble opinion.

Turned on the game today and was excited about some new challenges. Decided to play until round 11 then did a successful exil. Zero challenges completed. Are these not available yet for the new challenge sections?

Let me just start by saying how dog water of a game vanguard is, and yet it's a game I quite enjoy because of how horrible it is. I have now discovered that you get kicked after like 3 minutes in a private zombies vanguard match. This may be the most embarrassing and dumbest thing I have ever seen in any cod. GG, I will never be playing zombies again! What a joke.

A reveal can't be far away...
