Welcome to Call of Duty: Black Ops III, a dark future where a new breed of Black Ops soldier emerges and the lines are blurred between humanity and the technology we created to stay ahead, in a world where cutting-edge military robotics define warfare. It is the ultimate 3-games-in-1 experience.
In November, the end of the year, and most of us seem to have understood that these moments have always been "reserved" Call of Duty. He became the most effective warehouse money for Activision, enough to make him decide to present three different developers to handle it in the format of the cycle. Although there are many requests to re-explore the flavor of war more classic, Activision decided to push the futuristic trends like the two previous series even further. Call of Duty was never more futuristic than what is offered by Treyach in Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 were eventually released for Playstation 4, Xbox One, and of course - the PC.
You are able to read our preview may already have some idea what we were talking about. So futuristic concept of this new series, until we mention that the taste of his sci-fi is much more subtle than that of the inherent military shooter over the last few years. Treyarch seems to have outlived a lot of care to think about and apply any military technology that may or may not be applied in the next few years, as well as the Ghosts and Advanced Warfare. But surprisingly, she gave something to hasten and interesting to follow, regardless of whether the final quality meets expectations or not. Cool again? In the same package, you will be treated to plenty of surprising features.
So what is actually offered by Call of Duty: Black Ops 3's? Why do we call it a game worth ogled? This review will discuss it in for you.

Unlike the series Call of Duty before asking you to act and live the story as specific characters, Black Ops 3 would ask you act as "self". You will act as a "Player" - the main character who physically can you design early in the game, even with the freedom to choose the gender. But the story itself is still the same structure, where you will follow a story presented from one chapter to another great chapter. The difference is only in the absence of a definitive character designs like the Call of Duty series to another.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 will bring you increasingly far into the future, precisely in the year 2065, or about 40 years since the events in Call of Duty: Black Ops II. Advances in technology not only helps people to live better, but also easier for them to "wipe out" with each other. Advances in science turned out to be an impact on the implementation of military technology even begin to hit the physical limits of the human. At the beginning, along with your main partner - Jacob Hendricks, you will be involved in military action in Ethiopia is ruled by brutal military force NCR. But unfortunately, the mission is not a happy ending. You mortally wounded by the attack military robots, making you have to lose a limb.
But it actually makes your military career officially "started". With the power of existing technology, all your limbs missing limbs replaced with cybernetic which not only strengthen the physical, but also comes with a variety of cutting-edge military functions in the clutch. Along with Hendricks are also taking a similar operation process, you also now reinforced with DNI - Direct Neural Interface now allows you to communicate with other machines. This means, hacking, controlling specific machines, gather information storage like a walk, and the like. All the functions that make you no longer feel like a human being in general.
Under the leadership of John Taylor - a commander who does have a cybernetic squad, you are assigned to complete a variety of missions around the world for many years. But one of the newest missions that require you to investigate a secret location that has been hidden CIA in Singapore became the turning point of everything. Believed to be attacked by a local criminal organization named 54 Immortals, this led to an investigation of a secret that has been buried for decades. A secret that started crashing boundaries of what is real and unreal. The good news? Apart from the futuristic setting like this, a common thread with the two previous series is still palpable, especially about the major themes that he stretcher.
So, what will you and Hendricks found at secret CIA locations in Singapore? Who could be responsible for these attacks? Side of the story as what makes us briefly mention that it offers stories and sci-fi sensation that has never existed in previous COD series? You should play this game to find the answer.
| Not the Ordinary Man! |
|---|
From the theme which he stretcher, Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 seems worthy of the title as the series Call of Duty's most futuristic moment. He looks no longer care what can / can not be achieved with current human technology and directly immerse themselves in the taste of sci-fi, where the sensation is more obvious fiction be the main attraction. We're not just talking about the fact that you will be dealing with the Droid and Drones are all moving automatically, but also a series of fighting abilities which further strengthens your position as a character who is no longer "just" man.
Fundamentally, COD: Black Ops 3 remains a mainstream FPS game series that we have known. That most missions you will end up with moving from one point to another, kill any enemies you encounter, survival, and repeat the same process repeatedly until the story is finished. At some point you will be dealing with the concept of rail-shooter for extra dramatization, a formula is already attached firmly in COD as a franchise. Which makes it a little different is just the fact that you now have absolute freedom to customize the characters before the mission begins. This means, you can choose a combination of weapons such as what you intend to bring into battle.
However, it does not mean Black Ops 3 is absent with gameplay innovations altogether. Injections DNI allows your main character to do many more things than just take up arms and shoot anything that moves in front of the eye. Your characters have a similar skill tree called Cyber Cores that can be accessed by three main categories: Chaos, Control, and Martial. As the name suggests, is designed to cause chaos Chaos, Control to maximize the existence of a variety of robotic technology around, and Martial for quick attacks and deadly to the enemy. You can only choose one Cyber Cores and access a skill tree that he stretcher per mission. This means, you can not replace the main elements of Cores you at any time in the game.
So, what are the implications? A different gameplay mechanisms. You can simplify this Core-Core as an auxiliary force that will facilitate your trip. But on the other hand, the existence of different opportunities for a more free style of play and unique from each other. For example, gamers focusing on Cores Martial, for example, would take a different style finish level with those who make Cores Control as the main attraction. There are always new ways to eliminate the emerging challenges, especially considering the countless number of enemies craze in this series, far more than the previous COD series. But of course, you will not be able to use this special power continuously. Depending on the capabilities that you choose, it will be limited by the cooldown period before it can be used again.
Control of our own making as the main elements of Cores. Just like the description that had we mentioned, this Cores are not designed to provide optimum benefits when dealing with human enemies and more when dealing with the drones and Droids. In the precarious conditions in which giant robots over the course of the battle, Control often end up saving lives and ease the journey. One of our strengths is the favorite? When you can master a variety of giant robots or drones in the sky just for you control directly. There is little satisfaction in seeing a weapon designed to kill you quickly just so backfires that can destroy enemy forces more effectively.
Unfortunately, in spite of the implementation of this core function, COD: Black Ops 3, especially in the single player campaign mode does not offer new sensations. In the end, it ends so a mainstream FPS game that offers a new enemy variants that everything can be solved with more vomit bullets and rockets.
At least, there is one thing that we are quite appreciated here. Apart from the fact that you have to deal with so much military technology giants, from the plane to the mecha, no ending so "just" mere QTE like most action games today. All the "boss battle" this requires you to actually take up arms and start shooting as possible while avoiding their deadly attacks. A reasonable steps to thumbs up.
| 4 Player Co - Op |
|---|
One appeal to be offered Treyarch on Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 is one of the features that actually had they inject in the era of World at Ward several years ago. Absolutely, we discuss a cooperative mode for up to 4 players to complete the campaign mode there. Although quite skeptical that he could offer something new and feels more like a gimmick, but the experience of playing us against this mode turns out wonderfully positive. You like to deal with the potential, what would happen if the Call of Duty, ending with Destiny-style gameplay mechanics but in more modest.
Treyarch clearly facilitate that COD: Black Ops 3 is optimized to be shared with other gamers. Although you will still be facilitated by AI intelligent and fairly effective in the single player offline, but the fun of this game is located in the thrill of multiplayer their cooperation. You can see it clearly from the character design is now more towards the personal identity and no longer portray certain characters such as the series of previous COD. The fact that you can also customize a lot of things, especially on the choice of weapons and equipment and Cores used also actually encourage a gameplay focused on collaboration, rather than enjoy themselves.
To ensure that all users can enjoy the "excitement" of existing campaign mode, Black Ops does offer three variants of the enemy in terms of quality and quantity is far more than the series Call of Duty before. In terms of quantity, you actually meet with the number of enemies is much more than a small area to the next area. Attacking from all directions, the difficulty that you find in the offline mode SP is starting to feel more rational when tasted together with 3 other players. That is clear, all amounts presented enemy is indeed to ensure that all players who decide to play co-op will be able to get a portion of his own action.
So also with the quality of the enemies that you must face. Not a few moments ended with the fact that you have to show the enemy variant that is designed to receive the bullets, rockets even in very much before ending submission. The fight against enemies like these variants are also increasingly strengthened slightly sensation that indeed it is designed to facilitate the battle 4 people, like a mini-boss. There are different flavors when you are dealing with them alone + AI or with 3 other people, especially of the fact how fast you can finish the mission. The number and design of all the enemies like this, Treyarch deserve a thumbs up for success concocted a campaign mode that remains intriguing, well when played alone or cooperatively.
The decision to distinguish between the story progress in the single player campaign mode and multiplayer also generates its own positive and negative implications. Downside? You can not necessarily move to a cooperative mode when you are tired and intend to continue the story that you have spent together with another friend. You are forced to redo everything again from the beginning, of course, quite annoying if you just need to divert gameplay is beginning to feel repetitive. Plus? This means your chance to try another style of game, especially on the choice Cores are used as the main part. If you play with the SP offline Martial for example, may be co-op campaign mode can be used to sample Chaos or Control to experience the sensation is different.
In essence, the cooperative mode offered by COD: Black Ops 3 toed not just a mere gimmick. There is the excitement of its own fight against dozens of enemy troops especially at higher difficulty levels. The good news? It also forces you to be more sensitive to the position and condition of your other friends. Because so the only player who ended up dead without revived by another friend, then the game will be over and you have to redo everything again from the last checkpoint.
| Slightly Innovation in Multiplayer |
|---|
We are talking about the multiplayer mode that may not be too popular with gamers Indonesia, but always be an integral part of the appeal of each series Call of Duty in Western markets. Unfortunately, as in previous years, there are many innovations offered in multiplayer mode COD: Black Ops 3 this time. Apart from a variety of multiplayer modes that she stretcher, where Team Deathmatch still be the most popular, the point is still a sensation multiplayer faster and more focused on melee combat. Belari actively, swiftly take up arms and shoot once you meet an enemy without significant recoil still be the main attraction.
But that does not mean there is no distinct innovation is injected. One of them is the "hero" is referred to as a Specialist in COD: Black Ops 3. No longer simply divided into classes based on the weapon used, you will now be prompted to choose a Specialist as your main character in each multiplayer games that exist. So, what's so special? In contrast to other COD multiplayer is just offering difference weapon, not unlike the hero Specialist in MOBA games. They have their own unique abilities that can be triggered to get an extra advantage in battle.
Of course, this ability can not be triggered continuously. With sufficient cooldown time will be slow and full of little faster if you manage to kill a lot of enemies, the presence of system dynamics Specialist is presenting a unique multiplayer in COD: Black Ops Specialist 3. Each will have two main variants of different skills. If you choose Outrider for example, you can choose to use Sparrow - an arrow with explosives at the end or Vision Pulse - a radar mechanism in the short term that can show enemy positions within a certain range. Or when you are using the Ruin, which has Gravity Spikes - area melee attack that can kill the enemy instantly or Overdrive that make it move faster. There are some new characters Specialist also open if you've touched a certain level.
But this is not just a mechanism Specialist who makes multiplayer COD: Black Ops 3 feels good, although arguably offers more innovations than the previous series. One that deserves special attention is the design map remarkable. We do not just speak to the details of visualization or the beautiful scenery that he racik, but also the pattern of any chance to "play it safe". There is always an alternative road to get to the point area so that gamers who just so the camper will not be effective. All roads closed? You can even use the waterway is in some maps to go through that path could be, not guarded well before. There is always a gap, so this is a special attraction.
These sensations are also increasingly enhanced by the system "jetpack" and parkour from Advanced Warfare series more refined. Running and jumping with extra jets to reach higher places or just running around the walls now feels more natural. You can do it with only one button on the console versions without the need to hold the action or the like, thus providing a great space to do it while shooting. He feels much more natural and comfortable to use in this series. You are happy with a little customization to personal banners and weapons will also be facilitated here.
But unfortunately, the classic problem multiplayer mode in Call of Duty Black Ops is still going on in this one series. Absolutely, we talk about balancing that is still a mess. Being at a very low level when tasting it, we met several times with other teams in the super high-level composition that looks very unbalanced. This is of course a problem because of the high levels of COD multiplayer is also associated with a variety of powerful weapons more diverse, and in this series, variant Specialist and special abilities that they can also pilih.Hal which is of course very unfortunate.
| Tinkering with Creatures of Darkness! |

If you are a gamer skeptics who still do not see COD: Black Ops 3 as a game that is well appreciated by the level like a game other AAA just because he kept released yearly, then you might be tempted by so dense selling points that he has to offer in the series this time , Treyarch seems to have a strong ambition to ensure that every gamer, regardless of the mode most want them to taste, end up satisfied with COD: Black Ops 3. The result? For a game for AAA game in general, he injects so many game modes in it, which worked seriously.
One of the so force Treyarch? Of course, the zombie mode that he stretcher. But unlike the previous series which immediately throws you into a survival mode for granted against many creatures of darkness, the Zombie mode in COD: Black Ops 3 immerse the background story and its own unique character. Unlike the single player and multiplayer, which comes with a futuristic setting, mode Zombie Black Ops 3 actually takes you to the era of the 1940s, in which the four characters against the background of the crime itself: Jessica Rose, Jack Vincent, Floyd Campbell, and Nero Blackstone awakened mysterious and trying to survive the brunt of the variants of zombies and other monsters.
The core game itself is still around with the same system. That you fight to survive, alone or cooperatively along with four other players. Every zombie you kill will produce a certain point can be positioned like a currency, buying more variants of guns, bullets, and also a special ability that lets you turn into monsters within a certain time limit. He also dipaduka with a solid story that revolves around the mysterious figure named "Shadowman" the narrator, once the source of the red thread the four characters. For us personally, the mode is always interesting at least 15-30 minutes a game and gradually become repetitive as the game time. In addition to Shadows of Evil as the main story line, this zombie mode also offers another campaign mode - The Giant which can be opened thereafter.
Cool again? Treyarch also inject a secret mode they never open to the public before - Nightmare Modes that can only be unlocked after completing the campaign mode. He was like a zombie mode, but with extra stories are more dense, and is designed to explore the events prior to the campaign mode. Sounds interesting? Unfortunately not as creative as imagined. Nightmares mode is actually just a variation of the campaign mode that replaces most of the enemies you face into a zombie, although it remains to be fought with some 54 members of Immortals in some places. Interesting? So like in zombie mode, in the beginning, then went repetitive gameplay over time, especially if you are new recently completed campaign mode there.
Broadly speaking, Activision and Treyarch steps to offer more content in COD: Black Ops 3 is certainly something worth thumbs up. Regardless of whether it ends up being something that you like it or not, the option is always better than no option at all.
| Where do you to carry it.. |
|---|
This is probably a question that continues to arise in our minds after completing Call of Duty: Black Ops 3's. Why? Because, as was claimed by Activision and Treyarch some time ago, and we also feel the previous series, this time it offers a story line and a technological approach that has never existed in the series Call of Duty before, where we could even conclude that he feels like a sci-fi game rather than longer just a military shooter. We're not just talking about a war that is "too" futuristic, but with elements of a story that might be enough to make you wince and start thinking hard, actually want to carry around this franchise.
Why? Because such a concept that had offered Volition's Saints Row, there is a tendency that Activision began to do the same with Call of Duty. That a new series should offer a tailor our theme "crazy" than the previous series. Interesting indeed, but Saints Row could be tangible evidence that such an approach could be a boomerang itself. Gang wars, fight aliens, superpower, and the last - playing in Hell, such as opiate drugs, there is little anticipation that they can offer something even crazier in the next series if they want to continue the existing trend. The result? Saints Row franchise stalled just after a popular outstanding.
Is Call of Duty do the same thing? It is thus a great question that the answer may be that we can get two more years, when the cycle brings back Treyarch responsible for this franchise.
Because if there is Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 in the future, and they decided to push this franchise even further into the future, then we will meet with a sci-fi game that probably will lose flavor shooternya military. Because they need something more spectacular, something more crazy, more futuristic than what is offered by Black Ops 3 today, something that is difficult to imagine today. We personally arguably among the groups more crave a series reboot or series back to the classic taste than an attempt to appear more futuristic. Want to carry this franchise, sang songs such as Indonesia ..
| Conclusion |
|---|
So what can be concluded from the Call of Duty: Black Ops 3? He may still not worthy of the title as the best Call of Duty series, but in comparison with the concept of a futuristic war offered by Activision for the past three years, Black Ops 3 arguably be in the top position. Gameplay innovation he offers is minimal and it still feels like FPS games more mainstream, but the story approach and explicit violence that he offers so special attraction. Combined with solid content, complete with a variety of competitive multiplayer mode, 4 player co-op Zombie Mode with different settings, and Nightmare Modes which acts as a secret mode, Black Ops 3 is sufficient to satisfy what is required gamer lover of this franchise.
However, it does not mean this game is perfect. There are some records that certainly deserve discussed. The first deficiency is the most fatal is that the classic problem balancing the team in multiplayer mode is still going on here. Users with lower levels still fighting with the user a high level reinforced with a variety of specialist weapons and more. Another complaint is the plot that was floating because there is so much background that is not described in more detail. You got taken to one conflict to another conflict and pushed forward for dealing with a new conflict without touching its foundations. What actually happens in Singapore before this madness happen? Something that is not necessarily the answer you get. In some sessions, chapter to the story also feels too long.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 is a Call of Duty series is fun and has a myriad of activities to keep you busy. If you've never touched Ghost and Advanced Warfare, the solid content he offers is one of the selling points is enough to make us recommend Black Ops 3, especially if you are a big fan of the franchise in. But if you include gamers who are still dreaming and hoping for a revolutionary Call of Duty series that feels very different and new, then Black Ops 3 would not be enough to meet your wishes are. He remains the Call of Duty series that so far you know.
