It is not all negative though as maps such as Moscow with its interesting, classic feel and Miami with long sight lines among beautiful neon imagery are great additions to the franchise. On the whole they just feel as lifeless and plain as Modern Warfare, but with increased colour intensity and an arcade like design. Whilst this return is therefore welcome, one of the main critiques from both the pro and casual community is that Cold War is a good game with bad maps.
This is in contrast to Modern Warfare, the previous game which employed a new take on map design which was ultimately disliked by many people, the only shining lights being popular remade fan favourites such as ‘Hardhat’ and ‘Vacant’.
Moscow with its interesting, classic feel and Miami with long sight lines among beautiful neon imagery are great additions to the franchise These include increased customisation of weapons to allow the player to tailor their weapon to their playstyle, therefore making a range of guns viable (in a game series often dominated each year by a certain meta) and a return of the classic 3 lane map system.

Specifically, we will look at the most popular element of Call of Duty since its inception, multiplayer. Even if this motivation seems simple, the discussion over the quality of the result is complicated. Treyarch the game’s developer has tried to look back to the past for inspiration in the present and at heart create a game for long standing fans. The whole philosophy behind Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is the fundamental belief that complexity doesn’t always create enjoyable experiences.
