Call of Duty: Vanguard

Call of Duty: Vanguard may be the best CoD installment to date with stunning graphics that shine on the new systems and finely tuned, balanced gun play. They bring a new and fresh approach to the WWII and D-Day scenario making the solo campaign just as enjoyable as the multiplayer.

Call of Duty: Vanguard is another strong entry for the franchise. It offers a lackluster campaign, but makes up for it with a frenetic and fun multiplayer experience. It doesn't bring anything new to the table in the FPS genre, but many of its elements definitely feel like an evolution for the franchise.

Does Call of Duty: Vanguard advance the series in any meaningful way? Of course not, but that doesn’t stop it from being a fantastic package for Call of Duty fans, or a good entry point for those seeking a way in. The campaign here is brief but captivating, managing to make you feel for its band of heroes despite your short time with them. Zombies has some interesting twists that keep you on your toes. And multiplayer is more of the same but with tweaks that some will love and others will hate, as usual. All in all, this is one of the best Call of Duty releases to date, and we’d love to see more of Vanguard’s exploits in the future.

The campaign of Call of Duty: Vanguard tries to be heroic, but falls short and becomes predictable due to one-dimensional characters with poor development. Even when the multiplayer has interesting gameplay options, they are nothing to write home about. Finally, the zombie mode adds a lot of entertainment to the experience, but it's not enough for this installment to be a must-buy.

If you enjoy WWII shooters, you’ll still have a good time with Call of Duty: Vanguard. Sledgehammer Games have graced the WWII era once again with their innovative approach to multiplayer and packed it full of maps. The campaign, albeit short, gives you a unique view of WWII at the heart of one of the deadliest squads. And the Zombies mode? It exists, but the less said about it, the better.

This is a treacly origin story for a crew we wouldn't be on seeing again. [Issue#366, p.104]

While it adds some interesting new features to the Call of Duty formula, Vanguard's mixed bag of changes makes it a forgettable entry.

For me, one of the best Call of Duty games, the story is great, super recommend this game!

Tem um bom modo história, porém eu acho que o multiplayer tem grandes problemas como as skins de armas e a forma exagerada em que você pode personalizar suas armas, foge completamente do tema de segunda guerra, tendo até mesmo armas que não são daquele período, o que acaba sendo bizarro e assustador quando visto dentro do jogo.

Dude, it’s insanely better than the PS4 version. The game’s still trash, but way more fun, and the offline bots are less dumb.

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

Main thing that made this campaign bad is Activision literally copy and pasted but not only that they didn't put any effort into the characters and passion of the usual campaigns. They threw you into a story that didn't really make any sense, it felt like inglorious basterds but make all the characters whiny or completely clueless. Only good thing is that Activision didn't completely tank on the movement or gameplay, that was the only thing carrying this game. Otherwise, Vanguard is the actual definition of what a husk **** is one or two main qualities, and they tank on everything else.
