I Miss Call of Duty Blackout 

This is why I want blackout 2.0 but I know its not coming

I never played Blackout but this video has me feeling nostalgic for it. Seeing the maps that defined my 20s in that mashed together open world is beautiful.

You and I both. I never got into warzone. It was great seeing my child hood spread out on one map.

same bro. most fun I 've ever had playing call of duty

The mode also made you wanna win, challenges to unlock unique characters you had to work for. Ranks so you can rank up and show off new operators. I remember struggling for DAYS trying to get Woods, so if you saw someone rocking woods you know that was a good player. Nowadays everything is in the shop and nothing is special anymore.

I like seeing smaller RU-vidrs doing stuff no one else does great video and good luck keep up the hardwork.

I still play on PS4 at least once or twice a week. Wish this game was still getting updates.

As a Blackout lover myself, I miss it so dearly, didn't play it enough as I was constantly grinding Zombies, but the fan service was amazing, everything in Blackout worked so well and it did keep me coming back, playing as your favourite Black Ops characters with your friends was such joy! Some day I'd love if someone hosted a lobby just to try it again. (Great video btw!)

I still play black out every once and a while it’s a really good game its downfall it wasn’t free I truly believe if it was free it would have done amazing

I think they messed up with the armor system, but I still loved playing it. I miss no loadout battle royal.

we need blackout. Unparalleled movement, and the best equipment. Grapple guns need to return. Campers were always punished in blackout.

Also we had sweet earnable skins and characters unlocked with in game challenges. Not pay for the coolest skins but be good to get the cool skins. The good ol days man

Blackout will always have a special place in my heart. I never understood how or why Activision thought it wasn’t worth pursuing. I’m not a fan of Warzone. Blackout did something for me that no other BR could. Apex is the next best for me. I miss it.

I didn't enjoy the base map but the alcatraz mode was the only gun based BR I've ever really had fun on!

Blackout felt like actual Fun

I really liked Blackout as well, my favourite season was apocalypse z because as a hardcore zombies fan it felt really cool seeing all the homages to zombies and the wonder weapons were incredibly fun. I just wish they at least brought back the Blackout map to warzone. The funny thing is that Blackout had alcatraz as a map first, so they were definitely thinking of Blackout when making warzone

Man I miss doing the challenges to get characters like Mason when you needed the stained shirt from a supply crate, then you'd go to the broadcast station and press that button. The memories I had.

I played it a couple times but never seriously but this video makes it seem like it was the peak game in 2018

Wow raid looked so fire with the surrounding map

I was just playing blackout last night. I got to unlock 2 numbers outfits on a new account that I never got to complete. I really miss the original state of blackout when they had special events on blackout.

Man, my first game was when the beta dropped and I won. Definitely something you had to be there to know. A shame it wasn’t free to play like war zone.

I wish I got to play this at the time.

I started playing COD during its recession, I wasn’t around for its hay day, BO4 is the game I get nostalgic for like other people with bo2

The way he talks about the game, full of passion. Great video man

Awesome video man, was in my recommended, first time watching you do great commentary. Blackout and BO4 hold a special place in time for me and my boys. We would play all the time, no real big responsibilities or anything, just gaming and vibing. I love warzone as well but I would at least at the bare minimum love to see the map return as well, such a underrated BR experience

Great video man!

Great video! Love this it brings back memories I really enjoyed blackout because it had enjoyment written all over it! Funny how they said blackout made war zone what it is… war zone is just PROFIT where as blackout was SOUL

Blackout is not just about the battle royale but it's supposed to be a "museum" for all older maps and celebrate some succession of black ops franchise. We might not have gotten the best black ops but, this blackout was essential to the ending and final nail before went into modern cod. I never got how much they put effort into their game, only to celebrate the franchise. It's crazy that BO4 is forgotten cod.

BO4 was peak playing Xbox with friends for me. So many memories on Blackout alone. I feel that if Treyarch was able to work a full three years on it BO4 could’ve potentially been one of the best CoD’s ever

Game was 🔥 bro I like this battle royal map and the way you gotta hookup the guns

The first BR me and my Mrs would play together... as soon as Apex came out though, we moved and have been on there since. Love the memories though

At the time, I used to grind blackout nonstop to get the Raul Menendez skin. I miss playing as both John and Jane Doe zombie skin

I feel the same nostalgia in COD WarZone Mobile. It’s so fluid and amazing

Same here my favorite big map warzone !!! Great memories with the homie

I miss BlackOut too. It was so much fun. I remember when the beta released. I was having so much fun I completely forgot to blink all evening, untill my eyes were red as tomatoes 😂 You had to find the best weapons and attachments, making loot an important and fun part of the mode. The additional POI's and LTM's gave it nice variety as well.

Honestly, I reckon blackout map would work so much better than Verdansk coming back. Warzone hasn't had a proper story since Cold War, it's been getting more and more goofy with each season. The blackout map is more in tone with that, in terms of it doesn't try to be a real place, just a map that players would enjoy playing. If they did that and got rid of loadouts, Warzone would be so much more popular

was soooo epic black out! especially first time finding the ray gun

Blackout was really the BR which was on the point, a mashed map with nostalig Poi's, everyone had the same chance at start to scanvange and hope rng blessed you and customize the weapon you want or change it on the way for the situation, grapling hooks, sensor darts, vehicle on mass which pushed the rush playstyle on every aspect, which if a duo pushed didn't mean death cuz the movement and chance to flee or dodge and fight, the size and 100p was perfect, but the rng and scavanger aspect was what really pushed the classic BR which dropping on the same spot mean you must work with what you found and adapt which at the end mean the one which is better win. Or the jumping from tall buildings where you jumpsuite glided or could glide and push a enemy cuz it was fast and you didn't parachute as a free kill in the air, Blackout was really a COD BR fast and simple, loot-kill-win....i hate myself that i didn't play it more cuz had Bo4 since release and would give a lot to relive it...hell i would pay 70€ to have it with crossplay but all other stay the same, i hope Vonderhaar which left treyarch heard or saw that many wanted a blackout 2 and create a succsesor which catch with the simple br systems and arcade playstyle the same energy...or simply do it in bo6 as f2p for skin and weapon bundle sake and like mp go back what people want

Blackout was made with love. Despite how greedy Activision was at the time. Warzone feels so soulless by comparison. Boring metas. Forgettable locations. A super bland color palette. Loadouts were the worst thing imo to come to battle royale. If you had a bad gun but made it work, it felt way better than being a slave to the mega cheese

Call of duty franchise. Ahhh you’re so proper

although i sucked at Blackout and PvP in general, i genuinely think that this CoD BR holds up more than WZ has or ever will

i was just telling my brothers this last week, and we were saying how we all miss it :( used to drop in the graveyard constantly lol always had decent loot

Warzone kids WOULD NEVER SURVIVE! Once you die, there is no coming back. No buy backs, no gulag. Pure skill. No crutching.

Man i remember when Blackout came out. I saw everyone hating it because "oh it a PUBG clone/Fortnite". Good times

Blackout was a really goated map

Its still active, still loads of fun.

I would love to play Blackout again but can never find a game. It would be amazing if we had a "Blackout Day" where everyone came back on for a day so the servers were full again!

If only they'd get some inspiration to bring this map back into warzone if we can get verdansk back. This map would compliment so well w warzone's mechanics and movement.

They gotta bring back the blackout map for the black ops 6 seasons of warzone

Blackout still has the best br map of all time imo. As much as I liked verdansk & fortnites chapter 1 map this one has the best design ever imo. The seamless integration of the old maps was so genius and done flawlessly. They need to bring blackout back. The whole thing. Maybe with bo6 they might but I doubt it. Maybe one day.

Every Damn Day

Blackout was actually really fun tbh

It'll be fun if they bought blackout back with some new stuff added to help it feel better

Blackout was & IS the best BR out there. I've played them all, since the beginning. But Blackout was perfection. Nobody would play Warzone if Blackout had Cross-Play & Lifesupport or more maps & content. I'm still sad, Activision cancelled Blackout 2.... I was so pissed, when I heard the leaks back in the days from one of my sources. I was in denial...

I have been saying this for years. Blackout was better than Warzone. WZ’s map is too big. Too many added mechanics. Games drag on too long with the map size and ability to buy back teammates. Yes, you had to add attachments to guns like PubG where as the guns are based on rarity in WZ similar to Fortnite. But I would argue this made things simpler. Find the gun you want, you’re stuck with it the rest of the game. Oh and Zombies in certain areas was always super fun. And doing the challenges to unlock other players was so much fun too. Blackout stands out for its simplicity and vibrant maps.

Recently went back happy to say theres still a good player base so no problem getting into a game blackout >warzone and its not even close

Blackout was cool and more of a standard BR but Warzone feels more like a call of duty Battle Royale with loadouts perks attachments but Blackout had a cooler map and felt like a cod compilation of maps, unique Easter eggs and wonder weapons

I really liked it too! The only thing I didn’t like about it was being able to pick up Perks. They should take notes on some things that we like from Warzone and come out with Blackout 2. I think it’d be more popular than WZ

Broo blackout was the best. If people didnt play blackout i am sorry you missed out on something

good times

Blackout was so much fun only br ive ever liked they knew the map was awesome unlike warzone it never needed a new map because it was already perfect my only wish is that instead of what mw3 zombies is they put that on blackout it be so good

Stop...im gonna cry 😢

I miss it, it was SO much better than Warzone. Blackout was a perfect omage to COD, it had all the iconic locations and maps, made it so fun and enjoyable to explore. Infinity Ward makes garbage and doesn't know how to make a good enjoyable map.

Blackout is on COD Mobile and it is amazing

I wish fireteam elimination on cold war had player, blackout 2.0

I feel like had the mass majority liked blackout, they’d play blackout instead of warzone. But it died 😕😕

I generally hate battle royale modes but blackout was the only exception it was a fun experience unlike warzone

Hot Pursuit, the Blackout mode, is still active on Xbox. I've been playing it recently, much prefer it over Warzone or Fortnite.

Bo4 receives the most undeserving hate in the entire franchise when it had the best shop system (current shop), blackout (severely underrated), ok zombies, and a really fun mp and mastery camo

Best game ever ,

If only black out was free

I certainly enjoyed blackout more than Warzone by a mile. Especially these days.

I’m in my bathroom going to the bathroom with the door closed and the way you have it edit it where that girl is screaming ddo on a stick makes me feel like I’m hiding behind the closed door and I don’t want her to come in

Blackout should have been free. It would have blown tf up I refused to buy Black ops 4 because i hate the specialist/class system they implemented into it. If i wanted Ultimates & abilities i would play Overwatch or Titan Fall 2. Now i love Apex Legends movement, abilities & gunplay.

Om console it's still alive and match find times are seconds long in the maybe 70 matches total I've played this year

blackout was awesome. basically pubg with cod mechanics

U mentioned PUBG and how it had a strong grip on u xD Meanwhile I'm still playing PUBG to this day. I love the game so much (i know this is unrelated to the main topic of the vid)

We should make a discord or group for people who still want to play blackout cause the servers are empty..

Blackout was slept on n hated cause ppl were trash at it..

I’m sad they scrapped blackout 2 in Cold War

Bro thank you, glad to know I'm not the only one! Blackout was amazing! No SBMM, no cheats, no "meta" bullshit. Hard challenges to unlock characters. No stupid bunnies walking around. Warzone now, is just terrible.

real.

U Can Stilk Play Blackout On COD Mobile Well In The Older Versions Now A Days Blackout is still in it's core but mixed with wz features

Don’t get me wrong, I love loadouts, but I like having to deal with what you find better. Prevents people from just clutching the meta and using the perfect loadout combo and instead having more inventive gameplay.

I always found the general aesthetic and art design of BO3 and BO4 personally repulsive to the point of finding the games almost unplayable. I wish I could have pushed past it for a while because this looks fun.

i wish i gave blackout a chance when it came out, but fortnite was still peak at the time and bo4 felt like a worse version of bo3 to me, so i felt no reason to play it

I’d do anything for a blackout mode, even if they have to do it on the new maps but drop in and scurry ya ass off for a weapon lol and be able to build out weapons with the few attachments like before. Warzone stinks on ice, it is starting to get a little better but no where near blackout

Outblack

I wonder if it's possible for a company to go back to an old game and continue to work on it and add new content.

I will never understand how Blackout failed but Warzone was successful

Way more fun than warzone imo. It was great!!!

Treyarch absolutely cooked with blackout. To this day i tell people it’s the best battle royale so far - even beating out fortnite at its peak

I absolutely loved BO4 but man blackout sucked😂 that zombie blackout mode as pretty fun though

Do people still play it?

These idiots should have made it free. Damn it, most people havent even played blackout and wont understand how great it was

CoD cycle in full effect The idea of paying for a battle royale at the time was stupif

the load outs just absolutely turn me off of warzone.

100000000000000000 times better than warzone

Game dead on pc but Xbox had quads and ltm and ps has solo quad and ltm

people still play blackout But, call of duty is a bad investment Just start looking to Delta Force Hawk Ops or something.
