5/10, it has good perks, weapons, and bosses, but it's nothing spectacular. I'd say it's about on the same level as cold war outbreak if not slightly better.
the mode itself is 5/10 for me because its a stress reliever for MP but it definitely doesnt have what you would look for as a classic zombie player, not saying the mode itself isnt good though.
8.5 / 10 ( I'm not an overly negative person or at least one that tries to fight negativity in a lot of stuff so of course this was higher for me ) I've been having fun since for me I'm more of a cold war in Vanguard player meaning my main interest in zombie is having the guns level up and doing Camos, But with MWZ Evan enjoying doing some of the harder stuff with my friends, just yesterday we beat the funny giant super red worm it was pretty awesome and a little intense Edit: so many spelling mistakes I can't be bothered to fix them all, That's What I get for typing with my microphone
just completed the EE after never really touching bo3 maps outside of cornicles for years, once you actually learn everything its alot more enjoyable then alot of steps in der eisendrache and zetsubo
My favorite way to play this map, is getting the Gauntlet, air strike, Drakon, the time trial sword, and upgraded shield. Calling it, "Drakonborn" a play on Dragonborn. It's a good challenge to keep up with everything, while also being fast enough for the sword time trial. And a real test of skill IMO
i’ve been saying this since gorod krovi released. it’s the only map where you can play classic bo1 style zombies without thinking too much while also getting the option to do modern quest based zombies for good upgrades.
as a person who played the hell out of bo3 zombies, i never really found the map to be enjoyable (i actually played it less than zetsubou. still, your video on it was interesting.
Yeah i honestly really dont enjoy gorod at all, despite having hundreds of hours in bo3. I feel for me its that the map feels very "samey" room to room. There isnt really a great training or camping spot that is iconic and the wonder weapon just doesnt feel very fun to use. Thats just my take though
When this map initially came out, it immediately reminded of Shangri La since both Shang & Gorod cater towards experiences Zombies players. I always sucked at Zombies, even when i played on easy casual friendly maps such as Kino & Ascension😭😭
Man… 2024 and we still have a great community of what I call true cod zombies. Anything including: WaW nazi zombies Black ops 1 zombies Black ops 2 zombies Black ops 3 zombies Those are the games that we care about and white cliff is covering them all. You are the best man. Thank you for making such high quality content about these old games today. Games don’t feel as emotional and passionate as this era. 👏
I think I payed DE and the Giant the most. I like that instead of the original cast coming back to Der Reise again to repeat history, they come back to further the storyline by pulling the alternate dimension card.
I think overall this is a good review. While the easter egg does make use of the map mechanics, this is still a pretty hard egg to actually do with the steps alone. This is especially the case since the steps aren't outlined, like how would a player naturally know to shoot a rune with the upgraded shield or that the rune even means something. But in fairness, this is why I am excited to see what happens with Revelations. If we're talking easter eggs with obscure steps, that is THE map for it.
I’ve never been a huge fan of this map, in fact I think it’s maybe the most overrated map ever. But this video did make me appreciate how it innovated in ways I overlooked. Great analysis as always!
Day-yahd Eisen-duhd-Ah-HHa Why does everyone who started on bo3 say it like they’re German but butcher every other map name lol and “dare voon-der-fizz” lmao Also, they only had ace of spades by Motörhead because activision re-recorded the new version of ace of spades for guitar hero Metallica a few years earlier which sounded way better than the 80s version
Gorod Krovi is my favorite map of all time. What you're saying is everything I love about this map and it's a shame that we have apparently never got another map that uses this map as a blueprint like Origins and Shadows of Evil.
My only problem with Gorod Krovi is the Wonder weapon. I would've liked a Seperate Buildable Wonder weapon mixed in the Mk3 in the BOX. I personally would've liked a bigger map but the Map is flawless and is the last Aether Map where it blew people's minds away
One thing I never understood, is how can Nikolai say “I know this city as Stalingrad”, but he’s from the dimension 63 timeline where Stalin wasn’t a political player yet?
Weirdly enough is was my second favorite bo3 map but it is by far my least played map on this game. My cousin and I were trying to duo the Easter egg the day after it was officially solved for the entire rest of the summer it came out on. We never did and then like a year ago we tried again with two of my other friends and did it first try and haven’t really felt the need to go back to it. Though the memories and the concepts of the map without question put it in my second spot for this game and top 5 in my all time zombies maps Edit: better wording and grammar fixes
Just wondering, are you ever planning on covering non-Treyarch zombies modes like Exo Zombies or COD WW2? IMO I always thought it was unfair how so many zombies UA-camrs disregard them just because they're not made by Treyarch.
100%, I would love to do that, I totally agree there’s some awesome stuff in the other studio’s modes! As you can probably tell by the 3 month wait time, I’m very bad at making these videos, my process is just too slow 😔 I realized this and decided to prioritize getting the “main” series finished, so it’ll be done before the day I die, but when I learn to get better and quicker and have more time to do extra videos that’s definitely something I wanna do!
Tbh I don’t think this map did much in terms of innovation. I have more problems with Zetsubou No Shima but I can respect it for at least trying to shake things up. Gorod Krovi is just an average map and the setting doesn’t feel like Stalingrad or a world war 2 type setting. The shield being a requirement basically is always an issue I have with modern zombie maps like blood of the dead and pretty much all of black ops 4 since the respawn mechanic is ridiculous and I think that started in Gorod Krovi. And the Easter egg is probably one of the worst easter eggs even with an epic boss fight at the end. The wonder weapon is cool though.
Gorod Krovi is intentionally made to be the spiritual sequel to ascension, they even reference it directly with Gersh. I don't really understand why so many people worship this map like it's something completely different than every other map when in reality it's just BO3. I will say it's the only map with a good hat system and fun gameplay without doing any easter egg steps.
I have to say i cannot disagree more on the box point. I detest RNG of wonder weapons, especially in coop. Having the wonder weapon being buildable or unlockable from challenges is so much better as it becomes dependent on your skills only. Zetsubou putting in great weapons, or revelations having multiple wonder weapons in the box does make it a lot better, but i detest the toxicity thats built in with teammates hogging points to waste on the box to get the wonder weapon first, instead of working with the other players to set up the map
I really enjoyed this map from a visual design standpoint. Felt like many of the other maps from bo3 looked more like multiplayer than zombies. Zetsubou is an exception but the setup was too boring.
Honestly I kinda don’t get why would casual players would hate the map. I mean it is a bit of a difficult map but it’s should also be the most casual bo3 map. Wonder weapon can be acquired from the box and can be pack a punched. And not only that pap is very simple and similar to der Riese/Ascension where you do something 3 times and then you get access to pap. Yeah like I said it’s kinda hard with the dragon, manglers, and Valkyrie drones but it isn’t hard to learn after playing a couple of times
@@ShowCM For me it's the layout. No matter how much I play it (beat EE with a friend and all), I still can't fully piece together the map as easily as every other map I've played. It's rivaled only by Shangri-La and Revelations in this regard. I can probably make a mental image of every map up to bo3 except for those ones
@@MathewWithOne_T Honestly the map layout is ok. There are a few areas which just circle back into the same location. And I get that some parts also look a bit similar. I’m used to the layout (especially after several round 100 attempts 💀) but at the same time for the first couple of times I played it was a bit confusing. And I can also relate to revelations being a bit odd as well although Shang I’m very used to the layout but I still don’t play it because the layout sucks lmao.
@@ShowCMI agree with 99% of your comments, but shang layout sucks? It has one of the smoothest layouts for a small map imo. Very hard to survive in but it’s very quick and simple to traverse.
I will have to respectfully disagree...there really is nothing nostalgic about these Bo3 maps...dragons and robots and all this extra garbage just has nothing to do with Bo1 and WaW. I stick to these two games and have no interest in playing the newer zombies. I will admit, however, that Bo3 had a great custom zombies community on PC and I do enjoy playing some custom zombie maps that feel closer to Bo1 and WaW.
I’ve just gotta say: I’ve been into zombies since bo2. I love looking into new zombies content and watching deep dive videos like this but 9/10 when I find new videos they’re made by creators who fill their videos with “har har har women dishwasher” jokes that just make me feel like I’m extremely unwelcome in the community. Thank you for not being that person.
I’m sorry but I really think this map is just kind of mid. The dragons not only don’t really fit but also the fire is annoying. The WW sucks and it’s rng out box. The steps require you to progress rounds and can’t just be done back to back. And then layout wise there’s not to many memorable camping or training spots. And the EE has a lot of annoying steps.
100% agree. Take out dragons, make a better WW and change the easter egg would be better. But its still so mid. No room is iconic as a training place or camping and its all very samey. Totally overhyped imo
This video feels so vapid. I wish you pointed out something interesting about the design. Like did you really need to talk about time trials for as long as you did? It felt like padding when instead the video could’ve been 10-15 mins where you focus on your better points.
every black ops 3 map just feels like retreaded garbage thats trying way hard to be origins again with some mob elements thrown in and none come even close. they all feel like the same map with the same exact perks and ugly ass futuristic weapons and stupid cheat code ass gumballs
Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays :)
Are you playing MWZ? What are your thoughts so far?

One thing I dislike about this map is the mark 3 being underpowered. It really should deal infinite damage.
