Imo it's vanguard and this is not me making a statement on the quality of the games, that game felt so old school in comparison to the releases around it
played this during the beta and season 2 and 3, but that short time was so much better than playing mw19 for the whole year. felt like i was playing a cod game and not insurgency ripoff numero uno.
Fun fact: BO6 was supposed to be made on Treyarch engine as well but Activision pushed 3arc studio to make this game on MW engine to be able to integrate with Warzone
Man that Cold War MP’s Theme is one of my favorites lobby menu in CoD. So much better then hearing “BRING ME THE FIRE BRING ME THE FIRE” for the fifty time in a minute. Also that kill sound is dopamine
ur correct, CW was the last COD on the original Treyarch engine. It's a branch off of BO4's engine merged with the connectivity (cross play & cross progression with mp/wz), and the new store from the IW8 engine. Which is also why we saw leaks of all the BO4 operators when CW was getting first leaked.
Cold War was the best CoD of the Warzone era, and possible a Top 5 for me, I loved the Zombies, the Dark Aether camo grind, the different modes like Onslaught and Outbreak, the maps were pretty decent, Multiplayer wasn't my favorite at launch but by Season 3 I started getting back into it, Campaign was 10/10 also. I still love this game, and I wish BO6 had the movement BOCW has, sliding is all we need, no tac Sprint
It’s interesting you posted this video, because I’ve been playing Cold War as of recently I used to not like it back when it released, but these days I’m more appreciative of it I’d say this game and mw3 (2023) are the best modern cods multiplayer wise
Last time I tried to hop into this game I got permanently banned after one match. I was even streaming to a friend on Discord... It felt like a gut punch, I had spent hours all legit. (It happened during BO6's beta)
Legitimately, besides the sbmm, the jarring nature to go from MW2019 to Cold War in terms of game feel, and the scorestreaks system in Cold War, this game was fantastic. Had the game had the traditional scorestreak system and/or had toned down sbmm then I would’ve considered this a top 5 cod of all time. It was just missing a few key elements that would’ve easily put it in the GOATs. Also gotta compliment the entirely original maps in the game, they all felt very fun to play on and fresh. Not all were bangers and none of them I’d really consider instant classics but they were all very solid, fun maps that are waaaaaay better than BO6 and MW2019
cold war was once in my top 3 of all time I cant lie. its just so good and if bo6 continues to do well and see if better maps get added I would love to see bo6 year 5
tbh cold war sniping is way better in this game compared to bo6 and everything after. even mw2019 felt so slow to me compared to the black ops games beforehand
I think BO6 sniping is quite solid now without having so many cons to many of the attachments! MW2019 was slow for the AX50 and HDR, that was a marksman rifle heavy cod for sure
the sniper ADS animation on Cold War just looks and feels SO much better when compared to all the games that came after it. in bo6, there’s always these couple of frames where you can see the reticle through the scope but you’re still not fully accurate, making sniping much less satisfying and technically making visual feedback inaccurate for people who don’t know about this.
yea but at least on cold war you can only see through the scope when fully zoomed in because the animation pulls the weapon back first, and *then* moves it towards the middle of the screen. it's something that was brought by "the new engine" from MW because it started in MW2019 where (i guess) it tried to show off the scope effects or something, showing the view through the scope when the gun is still a bit to the side because it pulls it to the middle very early. wow another yap sesh from me lol
My frame rate got much better in Black ops 6 when I updated my BIOS and my graphics card driver. I would start with the graphics card driver if I were you because updating the BIOS can be kind of risky.
I got BOCW on the Steam Winter Sale last year and man do I ever feel like I missed out. Campaign and Multiplayer were awesome, and I even enjoyed Zombies a lot more than I thought. BO1 is my favourite CoD of all time and BOCW hit the same notes for me there.
@@Rxqe I'm glad to see its still pretty active on PC too, I can get a lobby in most playlists no problem. Sadly, no Fireteam lobbies though, so I can't complete the last two achievements :(
For me, there's so much to both love and absolutely hate about CWs MP. Truly the most split I've ever felt about a cod experience CWZ tho? Absolute heater. Not as much depth or character as the older games, but unmatched gameplay and replayability. Was a great thing to come back to during MWIIs slump and I ended up 100%ing everything, including the dark ops I'm glad BO6 isn't just "Cold War 2.0" tho. It obviously takes a lot from it, but there's some unmistakable BO3/4 influence in bo6s design which I fuck with HEAVY, especially if they continue down the bo4 route.
im the best cold war sniper camper in pc ...my class setup is barret tiger team ,tiger team spotlight ,7 rnd,SASR jungle grip ,marathon pad...in this class i have secondary the tundra with thermal ,tigerteam,tigerteam spotlight ,7rng,SASR JUNGLE GRIP ...stimshot ,semtex for the campers),asault pack for extreme camping ,(flackjacket,assasin,cold blooded for the air streaks and thermals)...you can easily brings nukes in nuke town i have so many camping like that ....scorestreaks:death machine , war machine ,strafe run
I have played Cold War a lot even though I spent $70 for the standard edition of Black Ops 6 and I felt like I wasted $70 on Black Ops 6. I tried to like it but I could not. It something about Cold War that I like. It must be some scorestreaks. Also, I wish Cold War's Nuketown was as colorful as BO6's Nuketown.
I loved cold war. Even if treyarch just stepped in to fix what raven was doing with the game. Zombies was ok, but not top tier, unlike bo6. Bo6 is actually the first treyarch cod that had a full devcycle since bo3.
mike i jumped for joy when i saw this post man 😭🔥 cause cold war just feels more solid compaied to bo6, wish 3arch had enough time with this game before it dropped
I dont know what it is about the new cod games that dont have the arcady feeling. If they remove tac sprint it would be amazing but after that what else is needed? I think we need to bring back fast reloads, and remove the penalties on ads and movement. Jumpshotting is now so trash ever since mw19. I dont like slide canceling but i wouldnt mind it in bo6 if tac sprint was just removed. I actually like omni movement but its so much smoother without tac sprint and it would just feel like an evolved version of the old cold formula. No tac sprint but with omni movement would be amazing
I think you hit the nail on the head really, I just dont know if the cod comm would be able to handle a classic feeling cod like CoD4-BO2 without having a heart attack over no slide cancelling/tac sprinting
@@Rxqe I really hope so. The thing is that BO6 is the first time in cod where I'm finally seeing like 90% of the community agree that tac sprint doesn't need to be in the game anymore especially with omni movement. Im hoping next years black ops 2025 game doesn't have it honestly. I hope BO6 is the case that they had to keep it due to it being developed 4 years ago and there's many things already built around it. Overall I think bo6 is ok but it feels like a betrayal to the treyarch formula everyone loved
When this game came out, no one liked it and no one played it, everyone just focused on warzone, and the Cold War engine was much different then the mw engine, and people weren’t used to it, to the point where some people were leveling up Cold War weapons on warzone, and now, everyone misses it and compliments it, wow
I was definitely one of the few who played and fkn loved this game, more than Warzone! check my older Cold War videos, was definitely playing this a ton haha
I was always player that called in strafe run and used air patrol to counter the enemy’s air patrol. I also camped in smoke with thermal m60 and stoner63. I’m not sorry about any of that either 😈😂
man i was angry when i bought this game, my then pc could run mw2019 70-80 fps, bought cold war and was getting top 40fps, was unplayable. now got a better pc, think it could still be worth trying?
This might sound crazy but I miss MWIII already. I'm not gonna write an essay but BO6 doesn't feel good on MNK. You've probably heard from a bunch of different MnK players complaining. This game needs to be optimized more. Like you can barely drop shot on this game. But my biggest problem is that everyone automatic gun has 0 recoil. I was in the firing ranged beaming the dummy with every SMG from 50 meters away. And with ARs I didn't miss a single shot on the 100 meter dummy. This is with no recoil attachments btw. I don't think I have to explain why this is a problem 😅 reg gunning in BO6 is brain dead. And as a sniper, sniping in BO6 just... Something feels off. I'm running the best attachments but... It's just not idk. I'm hitting my shots don't get me wrong
oh I definitely hear you on that! Idk I think BO6 feels solid for sniping on kbam for sure, reggunning especially with the new visual recoil patch feels incredible. but you're not alone, I miss MWIII so much
Cold War sucks tho. The sniping was OP no tac sprint, THE WORST SCORESTREAK SYSTEM OF ALL TIME. Because of that the streaks in this game were the worst out of every single cod to ever exist. I could go on but I’m just gonna leave it this. The game sucks always has and always will
Cold War the last classic feeling cod that’s ever gonna come out
Facts
Imo it's vanguard and this is not me making a statement on the quality of the games, that game felt so old school in comparison to the releases around it
it might just be, which I hope isn't the case
Bo6 reminds me a lot of bo4 with the UI and stuff even tho they were going for a more bo1 theme
@@paragon-uq4rp I can see the vanguard argument but the movement from Cold War was very reminiscent of bo3 and bo4 movement
Cold War is still way better than any new cod even BO6 and the last game with classic gameplay.
respectable take
played this during the beta and season 2 and 3, but that short time was so much better than playing mw19 for the whole year. felt like i was playing a cod game and not insurgency ripoff numero uno.
Cold War alpha better than all of MW2019
Cold war kills were such a satisfying game, especially quickscopes
for real, love it
Best Rxqe upload of all time.
TRUE
we're so back
Fun fact: BO6 was supposed to be made on Treyarch engine as well but Activision pushed 3arc studio to make this game on MW engine to be able to integrate with Warzone
not saying i dont believe you but where did you find this info?
@@xsavage-alex his dad works at treyarc
with all the devs working on the unified engine this makes sense yeah
Cold War was solid all around campaign, multiplayer, & zombies 🔥🔥
very true indeed B)
Crazy to think it's been 4 years already...
where's the time gone man
Man that Cold War MP’s Theme is one of my favorites lobby menu in CoD. So much better then hearing “BRING ME THE FIRE BRING ME THE FIRE” for the fifty time in a minute. Also that kill sound is dopamine
Cold Wars theme is perfect imo, dont get me wrong I love BO6s too but I hear ya on it haha
The Barrett was one of the launch snipers in CW and that will be the next DLC weapon for BO6 soon.
no way!
no way

spitting facts here
cold war kinda reminds me of ww2 in that it aged like fine wine and is a cod that stands out from the ones released around it
real as fuck man
1:30 Try turning off Resizable bar for better performance in BO6, made my game run from 90-140 fps with drops to constant 130+
resizeable bar, im not sure what that is but I'll look it up in the settings
cold war's pace just felt so nice.
it really did man, such a good game
It’s interesting you posted this video, because I’ve been playing Cold War as of recently

It felt like a gut punch, I had spent hours all legit. (It happened during BO6's beta)
does it show that on your activision account? like through activision support it says you're perma banned? thats so awful im sorry to hear that man
ive been thinking about redownloading this, is it worth it mike?
for sure! I got TDM at 3am though haha so I'd imagine more game modes are populated than just that but if you miss it, def worth reinstalling
Is this still worth playing for a noob who hasn't played cod MP online in many years or is it all just veterans now who will melt me down?@@Rxqe
I really like cold war, its definitely in the number 2 spot behind bo2. The sniping is sooo satisfying on cold war
bo3 was the last giga frames per second cod on pc. was so smooth
Legitimately, besides the sbmm, the jarring nature to go from MW2019 to Cold War in terms of game feel, and the scorestreaks system in Cold War, this game was fantastic. Had the game had the traditional scorestreak system and/or had toned down sbmm then I would’ve considered this a top 5 cod of all time.
It was just missing a few key elements that would’ve easily put it in the GOATs.
Also gotta compliment the entirely original maps in the game, they all felt very fun to play on and fresh. Not all were bangers and none of them I’d really consider instant classics but they were all very solid, fun maps that are waaaaaay better than BO6 and MW2019

I miss this game already. It was so beautiful staring from the trailer, then the alpha and beta. What a time that was.
LITERALLY, dude Cold War alpha and beta my god take me back to 2020 right now
My frame rate got much better in Black ops 6 when I updated my BIOS and my graphics card driver. I would start with the graphics card driver if I were you because updating the BIOS can be kind of risky.
could probably do a bios update, my gpu drivers are always up to date but could give it a go!

I didnt play this too much after launch but I agree with a lot of what you say here. Maybe ill gibe it another try
you definitely should man!
you should do a cod tier list video
lol i wrote this before the ending of the vid
LOL was ahead of ya man, it'll happen soon enough!
Try turning off Voice Chat in Bo6, not even joking it helps with FPS for me
heard that, its more effective in Warzone tmk

definitely check if theres lobbies for it, very worth
wtf is your prescription that must be hella strong
its very strong, I am blind LOL
I despise tac sprint. And the now universal cod mw19 engine
tac sprint has its moments, but its really not needed in a lot of the new warzone cods. I'd say it was only needed in MW19 and II

for sure one of the best
get a new cpu man that ryzen 3000 aint slow but its even slower than my 10700k in games and I'm also noticing that my CPU is starting to struggle
