Call of Duty Blackout after night 1 review!
It was nice to be back playing some call of duty. You move quicker and smoother than in pubg but it still wasnt pollished. First off when you have been playing Pubg for a long time you get used to a few things for instance the lean to left and right and out of the gate you notice that you dont have those in Blackout.
To get this review going ... I'm going to start off with my comparison thoughts between Blackout to Pubg and let me start by saying: Blackout straight ripped Pubg and then added and didnt add certain things. Let me start with what Blackout added:
- Zombies - mid game i have not charged the circle because i thought 2 guys were running across the road at 2 other people.. turns out they were zombies. Also shooting zombies gives away your positions #dumb
- Helicopters - so far they are ok. (its only been 1 night)
- Perks - you pick up perks that work for a limited time. This was cook but can make teams over powered. Perks would let you apply things faster, go dead silence, have awareness for hearing more footsteps..etc For the most part these are a cool addition
- extra gernade type weapons that did things from drop proximity mines, to a sensor dart to see opponents (for your entire squad).
- They added ROCKET LAUNCHERS. Not sure these are fair but i fired the only 3 rockets they gave me. no kills but some damage when firing a mile away.
- Baracades - you can put up your own small wall
- Trophy Systems and recon cars - awesome if you want to carry them.
- Four wheelers and Big Army Trucks - I saw an army truck go magically through a guard rail and down a hill and the guard rail stayed perfectly intact. (unpolished)
- The Ray Gun - I was shot by the ray gun 1 time while lighting a dude up for a while with an smg - #dumb
- fast deploying light first aid
Things that have disappeared from this Pubg rip:
- Leaning left and right around things - no more easy head glitching
- standard cars and motorcycles - only big truck, four wheelers and helis
- Armor damage knowledge
- A lot of Snipers
You can see that they have added a lot of things and removed only a little but they still have had a good bit of problems and cons to this game.
Pros
- Its fast paced
- Helicopters are fun
- Perks were a great addition along with the tactical gernade like weapons
- The hit detection is way better than Pubg
- Past maps were built into the battle royal map - #cool
- I didnt get one shot one killed.
Cons
- A lot of fights were who saw who first, less skill was needed an more awareness.
- You die way too fast for this style of game play.
- Driving any vehicle is a new learning curve (you ripped so much and you couldnt rip the driving controls)
- I had problems streaming while playing because the game became so laggy i could barely walk.
- Zombies - #Dumb
- Ray Guns - #Dumb
- No lean
- it takes too long to go through your inventory
All in all a good game but when they rip everything from pubg (even the being downed on all fours and being revived) you expect it to be decent.
They still have a good bit of work to do and I believe they need to up the hit count to be killed at least a weeeee little bit.
I will still play it and give it a go. I did like the fact that the controls were not far off of Pubg which makes it easy for me to transition back and forth.
