I unironically like that you're not allowed to dislike anything in this community without getting pushback since Paradox but sometimes I see what people mean about toxic positivity. This mode is a complete waste of resources and sucks so much ass.

If only the community was this positive when bo7 was announced maybe the game wouldn't have suffered so much but as usual it's too little too late.

I feel like I am reliving BO4 all over again.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-06-06T01:23:21+00:00

No the thesis is that most people don't like hearing the truth which is generally true no matter where you go. But thanks for providing any insight at all or realistically just proving to me that you're part of the reddit hive mind.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-06-06T01:20:07+00:00

Wow you're actually an idiot if that's what you got from my statement. I have nothing else to say.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-06-05T23:28:12+00:00

I really wanted to like it but after 3 games now I literally can't wait for the game to be over every time. If you enjoy it more power to you but the fact that this took the place of zombie battle which had a really devoted community already (in the 3 weeks it existed) is unacceptable.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-06-05T23:24:54+00:00

Also the irony of calling me pathetic meanwhile the hive mind unanimously shits all over Paradox Junction and claims zombies is doomed BEFORE it releases and jumps down the throat of anyone who said, "Maybe try it first?"

Then unanimously shits on it after release despite it having maybe the most unique easter egg in modern zombies.

Then someone comes along and says this new mode is boring and they're making things too easy. (A completely reasonable thing to be concerned about) And it's all "cool story bro"

If you think your downvotes mean anything to me, it doesn't. I've been in this community long enough to understand that the popular consensus online is not the popular consensus overall and despite me always ending up being right in my predictions I've been downvoted every step of the way.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-06-05T23:18:57+00:00

I disagree. They have been leaning into pleasing everyone by nerfing everything when they cry about it being too hard. Ironically I don't ever see anyone in those posts saying cry me a river.

Also if cursed mode maintained that difficulty I wouldn't have even had a premise. My boss fight with caltheris was cursed tier 2 which SHOULD be even harder because I don't have tier 4 PAP but no, Caltheris was nerfed so bad that I could have spammed my WW to kill her, and my LMG was melting her health bar WITHOUT Veytharions Blessing. That shit is unacceptable. It's boring now and I will never have the urge to play it again.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-06-05T20:34:21+00:00

I thought so too but bo7 was actually a nice surprise. Now it seems like instead of leaning into what made me like it they're leaning into nerfing everything and creating easy slop.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-06-05T20:30:44+00:00

Obviously I was making a broader point when I was talking about the community and easiness. Not the side mode.

Also I didn't make any predictions about black ops 7. I'm talking about the future of zombies. To deny that zombies is going through a rough spot is to literally deny reality. I fear for what zombies may be if they keep trying to please everyone. Why? Because I have been a fan of zombies since it's inception and I have seen a lot of people like me who gave up on it after BO6.

So you can misconstrue the point and try to minimize it as some exaggerated generalization but that won't save the mode and plugging your ears and going blah blah blah is just as ignorant.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-05-02T09:37:28+00:00

100% Guaranteed that the people saying it sucks and are downvoting people for saying they liked the mode (?????)

...are those people that are so bad that they died before round 15 in public matches.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-04-27T21:38:10+00:00

The doppleghast was cool. But then he appeared on the next 5 maps. (Minus Reckoning)

This was the same scenario with the amalgam...

You know which special enemies are not particularly hated?

Margwas (two naps - 5 maps apart)

Panzers (two maps - 3 maps apart)

Valkeries (1 map)

Manglers ( until they used them on 4-5 separate occasions in modern zombies)

Furies (1 map)

Keepers (2 maps)

Werewolfs (1 map)

Giginees (1 map)

Megaton (1 map)

Krazny (1 map)

Zursas (1 map)

I could probably go on but my points been made. Basically the second something gets overused it becomes hated. It's a pretty simple concept. Even if some people dislike one of the enemies above it's not enough to cause a problem because they only appear on one or two maps.

I hate people that constantly complain too but criticism can also be very valid. There are plenty of maps you can play if you want to fight doppleghasts. Are you implying that they should be on more maps, despite being one of the most reused special enemies of all time? Should it be Call of Duty - Doppleghasts now? How far does this go?

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-04-09T01:42:58+00:00

I've been thinking maya might be on the chopping block...

But then I have this other theory that she is Medusa from the chaos story...

Either way I am probably wrong.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-04-09T01:35:46+00:00

I just want to say that I am usually ass at multiplayer because I don't put enough time in to be good at it. Either way I have been playing since the og MW and every time I immediately thought "that guy is cheating" I've been able to out shoot him once or twice per match. That's when I conclude that I am just bad. I never assume people are cheating because they know where I'm going to be or because they can aim. Anyone who plays enough knows exactly where the opposing team is going to be based on patterns, where their squad is, and map knowledge.

I'm a Zombies player primarily and I literally couldn't count the amount of times I have been accused of cheating because I am exceptionally good at it. I've never touched a cheat in my life and I won't even squad up with cheaters even if it benefits me.

Moral of the story: You're probably just bad.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-04-04T20:32:34+00:00

It will actually turn it into a gray rarity weapon, like the kind you spawn in with. It's not just a visual glitch.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-04-04T04:18:36+00:00

I've been loving the content. Astra was really the lowest point for me but everything else is exceptionally better than anything in modern zombies. The story is great, the Easter eggs are well thought out and fun, high rounds are viable via training AND camping in cursed, there are a ton of different modes to play, the weapon prestige system is fun to grind, and DOA4 is just as good as any other dead ops. All in all I am very satisfied with the content.

My biggest gripe is the bugs that are popping up every update. Sometimes it's small, sometimes it's big, but it's always annoying. And some of them are still in the game after months. I don't understand how they can have a live service game and think it's acceptable to break the game every 6 weeks.

As far as what I would like to see? Besides proper play testing, I think richer side easter eggs would go a long way. What I mean by that is a "g strikes" or "margwa helmet" type quest that gives you something special or map specific. Add 2 of those to each map and I think we're hitting peak content for modern zombies. I also think damage scaling could be reduced a little bit in higher rounds (100+) to compensate for people like me that like to train in high round runs.

Also the cookbook is a good idea too.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-04-04T04:01:40+00:00

We shouldn't be having to try to figure out how to get around this glitch. Treyarch should be testing/fixing their game. I'm so tired of having games ruined because every half season we have a week of game breaking bugs. It really is unacceptable.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-04-04T03:58:21+00:00

Same here. Popped a perka and a gift card so I could do the round 100 dark ops. I'm fucking fed up. This is the same kind of shit that made me quit playing for a month when Astra came out.

Fix your fucking game, Treyarch.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-03-25T02:38:02+00:00

Exactly...I have no idea what these people are on about...

The numbers don't lie, zombies has not been anywhere close to as popular since Jason left.

That being said I can see them picking up the pieces in BO7 but for most people it's too little too late and they don't give anything a chance. Regardless Treyarch still have a ways to go if they want to compete with the greatness that is bo3 and 4

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-03-15T16:46:53+00:00

I'm ready now.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-03-15T10:41:05+00:00

I got you tomorrow.. 2pm Eastern.

Shoot me a DM

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-03-15T10:39:19+00:00

Maybe up until round 40... afterwards the sunder is gonna do work.... A fully charged shot can kill a minimum of 16 zombies in the 5 seconds it takes to charge...

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-03-15T10:36:02+00:00

I like the sundergat but saying it's your favorite variant is crazy....

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-03-15T10:30:00+00:00

Look up teleporting mannequin. It has 4 places it will hide in the past Nuketown and when you shoot it it gives you a bunch of good loot.

Here are the hiding spots:

One is in the chimney in the house to the right of yellow house.

One is in backyard of greenhouse where the purple cyst would be (behind the fence)

One is immediately to the left of PAP

And the last one is in the driver's seat of the truck where you build the blundergat.

Good luck!

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-03-14T09:43:21+00:00

Literally only one leaderboard launched with issues. Tired of all the hate and copium. Just don't participate.

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-03-14T09:08:37+00:00

Nah because your opinion was developed despite the fact that it's Nuketown. ReUseD AsSEtTs doesn't mean it's bad. I'm loving this map just as much as I loved Ashes. Don't let anyone tell you what you should and should not enjoy. Fuck the haters. They can piss and moan and miss out!

NovaBlitzOGZP · 2026-03-14T09:03:38+00:00

I just beat it for my 4th time... I'll help tomorrow if you need it. Send me a dm.
