With Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 now out and available for PS4, Xbox One, and PC, the reviews are starting to roll in.
The general consensus for Black Ops 4 is very good. In fact, many people are claiming Black Ops 4 to be the best COD game for a long, long time.
It seems that long term COD lovers and COD haters are coming together to enjoy Black Ops 4.
There are three key elements to Black Ops 4’s latest success. The first is the refined multiplayer, which adds important changes to health, gadgets, and overall balancing.
These changes are huge for competitive gameplay and make a big difference for the casual players, too. It’s a fresh change for COD that has brought a lot of players back to the franchise for the first time in years.
The second winning feature for Black Ops 4, and perhaps the most impactful, is the new Blackout Battle Royale mode. Many people are putting down Fortnite for the first time since it launched to pick up and play Blackout. Interestingly,

If you’re a diehard Call of Duty fan, you’ll already know the majority of game modes featured in most games like the back of your hand.
One popular game variant that has seen a lot of popularity in the past is Hardcore mode. Typically, a COD game will have hardcore variants of existing game types. For example, hardcore Search and Destroy or Team Deathmatch.
Hardcore mode reduces a player’s HUD and makes the time to kill far quicker. This makes dying a lot easier, hence the name. There has always been a mixed reception for hardcore mode, but many players love it.
Thankfully, Treyarch announced that hardcore mode will be coming to the multiplayer for Black Ops 4. No details have been shared about how it will work, though. With Black Ops 4 using an entirely new health system, the hardcore mode will need to be adjusted to fit this system.
Treyarch also revealed that while the standard multiplayer will get a hardcore mode, Blackout will not get such a mode. There

The recent Black Ops 4 beta was mostly met with optimism and positivity, but there were some areas that definitely needed some extra attention.
Recently, Treyarch took to Reddit to share their thoughts on the feedback they received during the beta. Treyarch also left some comments on the changes they will be bringing to Black Ops 4 before it launches on October 12.
Firstly, the fog of war minimap feature is getting reworked massively. Many players felt that the minimap was a little too overpowered in the beta, and Treyarch agreed. They will tone it down a little bit in full release.
Tac-Deploy was a topic for hot debate in the beta. With this tool, a team member can essentially change the spawn position of the team, but it proved to be a little too powerful.
As a result, Treyarch will be shortening the time the Tac-Deploy is active. On top of this, only 10 spawns per Tac-Deploy are possible before it shuts down.
Perhaps the biggest change was the adjustments

In a bit of a surprise move, Treyarch has announced some new content for Black Ops 3, specifically for the zombies mode.
It has been announced that new content under the name Zombies Chronicles will be making its way to Black Ops 3 in the near future. The new content will feature remastered versions of eight different zombies maps from previous COD zombies games.
The eight maps include the following - Nacht der Untoten, Kino der Toten, Shangri-la, Shi no Numa, Moon, Ascension, Verruckt and Origins.
Jason Blundell, studio head for Treyarch, has spread his word on the importance of these eight maps. He feels strongly that these eight maps are "the foundation for Zombies," and that he felt like "It was more important to give people the beginnings."
Call of Duty Black Ops 3: Zombie Chronicles will launch on May 16 - so far this launch will be exclusive to PlayStation 4. A later launch for Xbox One should follow, although the Xbox One launch date hasn't been announced

Treyarch just keep spilling the beans on Black Ops 3, which is great because the game sounds like it’s going to be a lot different to previous games developed by them. Recently, Treyarch gave details on the Black Ops 3 Pick 10 system, ADS mechanics and more.
In Black Ops 2, the Pick 10 system was hugely praised by the COD community. Thankfully the Pick 10 system will be returning to Black Ops 3. Everything is mostly the same with the Pick 10 system, but there have been a few changes made to the way it works.
Firstly, the Wildcards will still be in Black Ops 3. Players can equip up to six different Wildcards but each Wildcard will take up a certain amount of points as per usual.
Interestingly, the entire attachment system will be different in Black Ops 3. Weapon optics are now placed in their own separate slot. If you use the right Wildcards you can equip up to five attachments onto a primary weapon, as well as an optic. Secondary weapons can have up to two attachments

Whilst a lot of information about Black Ops 3 has been released officially, there is still a lot that Treyarch are waiting to reveal. Luckily, some details have already leaked, including details about the different DLC packs that will be in Black Ops 3.
Black Ops 3 will have 4 different DLC packs, all of which will be part of the season pass. As usual, the season pass can be purchased up front and will cost considerably less than it would to purchase each of the DLC packs separately as they are released.
Unfortunately we do not have details about what content will be in the Black Ops 3 DLC packs, although it could be possible that not even Treyarch are 100% sure at this point. Considering the full game hasn't even gone gold yet, it would make sense that DLC plans are not completely confirmed at this point.
If previous Call of Duty games are anything to go by, we can expect new maps from the DLC packs, along with new weapons and maybe some extra gun camos. There may

Out of nowhere Treyarch has just announced that Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 will be coming this year. The developer also released a small teaser trailer showing very little of anything besides the Black Ops logo.
Fortunately the teaser trailer does give us more information about when we can expect to hear more about Black Ops 3. According to the new trailer, there will be a worldwide reveal on Sunday, April 26.
So far, we haven’t seen any gameplay of Black Ops 3 and we don’t really know what to expect. The last title in the game was from Sledgehammer Games and this was the first time the development studio created a Call of Duty game without any external help. Some players seem quite excited to look forward to a new Black Ops title, whilst others are wishing Activision chose to go for a different Call of Duty era.
Considering Treyarch is still going down the futuristic Black Ops arch, it could be possible that the upcoming Black Ops title will come with some of the game

Nuketown Zombies Map Pack Available!
If you already own, or are considering purchasing the Black Ops 2 season pass, you may want to check out the bonus map Treyarch and Activision are giving with the pass.
Previously only available to Collector's Edition owners, the Zombie Nuketown map will now be available for all Season Pass holders as well. The map is located within the Nuketown area which has been seen before in Black Ops 1. The level has been made for co-op play, and puts you in control of a group of well-equipped scientists wearing radioactive suits. The trailer for the map also shows destroyed buildings and access
