I think the sentence "The game also introduces a battle royale mode called Blackout, which features up to 100 players in each match. Many characters from this and other Black Ops titles can be used as the player's character model in this mode." should be changed to, "The game also introduces a battle

I don't see how this is a correct sentence. CoD 3 was never released on PC, so isn't it obvious that it isn't on Steam? Every single Call of Duty game ever made is on Steam, from the first Call of Duty ever made all the way to WWII. CoD 3 was never even considered for PC, so therefore, it's not a PC

Hi, I wrote the prose of the microtransactions section a while back, which I think explains the criticism towards in them in sufficient detail, but I keep feeling like it's too large and needs to be significantly trimmed; it's twice the length of the Critical Response. The problem though is that I

The problem is we write for a general audience. Distinctions like that aren't made. BO4 is not "the first COD not released on Steam". It could be said to be "the first PC release of a COD game not on Steam". But I would suggest going the other route, and focusing on the DRM aspect. "It will be the

I've worked at Treyarch for 15 years and we've never once called it the IW Engine. Now, would IW call it the IW Engine since our code paths diverged in 2007 and little has been done to keep them synchronized. Over the course of development we've altered more than 90% of the code base. If it is

It's not known by many people, but multiple builds of BO4's campaign have been leaked onto the internet. They reveal many things about the game, mostly about the story and gameplay mechanics, and also that the 2v2 campaign was internally called a Career. This is all documented on the COD Wiki

Since no one has really picked up the story, what's the best way to go about expanding the "Development" section? I don't think the COD Wiki can really be used as a source, and the only public video of the campaign I'm aware of is on a sketchy reupload website

I think "since Call of Duty 3" should be removed from this sentence since CoD 3 isn't even a PC game in the first place. It's pointless to even talk about it when discussing PC gaming at all.

Microtransaction section is fine. It's the critical reception section that needs expansion. Only four major reviews covered is really low for a game like this. --

Hi. As stated in the edit summary, Zombies -- Usually multiplayer -- can also be played solo, and the Specialist HQ, even if a tutorial, is also singleplayer.

Yes of course it is a prequel To Black ops 3. Since The Game sets in 2045 and follows specialists with their backstory on specialists HQ.

The only "respected" source to mention this was Eurogamer, who revealed the mode was originally called Career way back in early 2018

Don't see this as an improvement. "up to 100" is specific and accurate. "around 100" is vague and could mean more than 100. --
33: 832: 527: 1718: 1168:
accurate to call it the IW Engine, then you should simply redub all of it, including IW's pages, as the Quake 3 Engine.
