Rating Call of Duty Black Ops 6

By: Wyatt Meyers

One of the greatest games in the Black Ops series could be Call of Duty: Black Ops 6. Having played every game in this series, I think the creators have a great opportunity to use all they’ve learned from previous games to create something really amazing.   Fans like this franchise because of its exciting campaigns, exciting multiplayer, and creative zombie modes. If Black Ops 6 improves on all of this, it may become an online favorite with players.

The chance to improve the plot is one of the main reasons why Black Ops 6 might be great.   The Black Ops campaigns are usually complicated and if the game developers create an affecting narrative, it surely will leave a statement.   The campaign has the potential to become one of the most memorable in Call of Duty history by showing stronger characters and improving a sense of connection between the player and them.

The possibility of an improved multiplayer choice is another issue.   Multiplayer games in Black Ops games are known for being entertaining and fast-paced. It will keep players interested for hours if they include more imaginative maps, unique weapons, and cool rewards.   Additionally, balancing weapons and enhancing the matchmaking system would make the game more fair and fun for all players.

Finally, if the zombie mode grows, it might become a classic.   It might be the greatest version yet with new maps with great themes, better Easter eggs, and harder challenges. Zombie fans would be happy to see something that mixes nostalgia with fresh concepts.

All things looked at, Black Ops 6 has all the makings of a great game. This may easily score as one of   the greatest games in the entire Black Ops franchise if developers take fan remarks seriously and work to make improvements in every area.   I’m excited to see what they create. 

Is the “New Call of Duty” Good

By: Stirling Tindal

The new Call of Duty game just released and many people are saying that Call of Duty is good again but is that true? The game released on October 25 for $70 and is free on Xbox Game Pass. The game includes a campaign, zombies mode, and a multiplayer mode.

I have only played the start of the campaign, but I can say that it definitely is a fun and interesting story. It is set in 1991 and the main group of characters are rogue operators that work on their own to take down a group called the Pantheon. The entire campaign is around 11 missions long and should take about 5-6 hours to complete. There are many different types of missions that include stealth, action filled fighting, or figuring out puzzles. 

Since this Call of Duty is a Black Ops that means that zombies are back in Call of Duty. This year’s zombies include two maps so far, Liberty Falls and Terminus. Liberty falls is a map in the middle of a town with a bowling alley, bank, and a cathedral. The pack-a-punch machine is inside the cathedral and you have to go through a portal-like door to get to it. Terminus is a map on a big island with a cave system and an underground lair with smaller islands around it. You can buy boats and go to different islands but why you are in the water bugs will spawn and spit acid at you. If you are in the water for too long then a kraken tentacle will come out of the water and spray a gas on top of the water that chases you at the same speed as the boat. The pack-a-punch for this map is on a lift that goes up and down from the top of the island to the basement. The zombies are overall pretty fun and the easter eggs are pretty cool.

The multiplayer side of this game is a bit different this year. They changed the way you get vamps and added a new form of movement called Omni movement. The camo progression this year is extremely easy. You don’t have to level up your gun at all and there are only three challenges. The first challenge is one hundred headshots for every gun and then each gun will have two separate challenges specific to that gun. The movem by is very similar to Modern Warfare 2019’s movement. It is mainly sliding around and tactical sprinting but there also is the annoying dolphin dive to deal with. The gameplay feels good and the guns feel fun to use but the TTK is very high this year making the headshots somewhat challenging to get. Overall the multiplayer is very fun and I will play this multiplayer a lot more than past Call of Duty’s.

Call of Duty Black Ops 6 is a very fun game and very well made. I give this Call of Duty a 8/10 because of its challenging yet fun play style.

Has Fortnite finally fallen off?

Braelen Lewis

Fortnite has been on the verge of death for a while now but has been able to hold on. This is due to its numerous collabs and new updates, but in the last months it has become silent. With almost nothing new and the active players on the game has been on an active decline. This is also due to Fortnite’s marketing team not doing very well with posting regularly and in general just making good content which reaches large audiences. Honestly though, in my opinion Fortnite is a dead game due to the repetitiveness of the gameplay and that all the people who used to love the game have all grown up and moved away from video games as a whole. It could also be argued though that another reason why it has fallen off is due to all of the new competitors coming out with massive games such as call of duty black ops six and space marines two. This could also be an argument for the case that Fortnite has not died and will return after people get bored of these games. The game is also dying due to the fact that people have grown up and their love for single person story games has risen and Fortnite can not compete with these games of which some are named beautiful pieces of art such as games like Red Dead Redemption two and Fallout four. In general I believe that Fortnite needs to invest in a new dlc or need to come up with a huge update to the game play for their games to return to the top of the charts, which they were at for such a long time before. Certainly Fortnite is a dead game now due to boring updates and no new outstanding content. Surely they need to expand their ways and come up with something like a campaign to gain back their title as the greatest game ever. 

Why Rainbow Six Siege is a horribly great game

By: Joseph Bauman

Rainbow six siege is a first person shooter game where teams of five versus five fight for a selected number of rounds swapping between attacking and defense. Siege is seen as one of gaming’s most competitive games with the fact each round you only have one life. This makes players take the game very seriously especially in the ranked game mode. The game would be a great success if it wasn’t for the changes made to the game over time. Siege has changed how the ranked system works, basing it off of winning compared to skill which lets players get ranks they shouldn’t have, because of them being carried. The game’s hit registration also has significantly dropped with clear headshots counting as a body shot, resulting in you dying and the other player living with minimal damage. Siege also has its good side with the ability to play with friends on any platform like playstation, xbox, and pc. It also lets players have a sense of progression with the leveling system allowing you to earn in-game currency which allows you to buy new characters, each with a unique ability. Siege is a great game to play with friends for a limited time until the game seems like working a nine to five job just to play one match. Everyone should try siege at least once even if they never play it again.
