Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War might have one of the most unconventional names in Call of Duty history, but it has taken me by surprise by how conventional its gameplay and maps are. This CoD feels more traditional than any of the previous releases within the last five years or so. It’s boots on ground, gun-to gun combat without any of the silly gimmicks we’ve seen in the past and it’s a blast to play.
One of my biggest gripes from last year’s Modern Warfare (2019) was that the majority of the multiplayer maps weren’t fun to play on and encouraged camping (especially with that annoying mounting feature which is thankfully gone). Black Ops Cold War is quite the opposite though with the majority of maps being some of the best we’ve seen in the series in years despite there being fewer of them. Without further ado, let’s get to ranking them!
9. Armada
Armada is the only map that I absolutely despise in Black Ops Cold War. Armada takes place in a large military ship as each team spawns on opposite sides of the deck and then rushes to the middle to hopefully take over the control deck. Once the enemy or your team captures the control deck the match is essentially over because they have a clear line of sight to each spawn and can just stay in that room until you can take them out. This map represents a lot of what I didn’t like in Modern Warfare (2019) which is making a map that is centered around one area. The only thing that could’ve made this map worse is if the dreaded mounting feature made a return.
8. Cartel
