Bruh, I like it when the maps are forcing you to move beyond simply training.

Yeah, Black Ops 3 has a bigger playerbase than Infinite Warfare.
This is Xbox most played but PS4 shouldnt be any different

:0 dude. I am legit shook.
115 is the goat Easter egg.
The only map in recent memory that has any sort of flow to it.
Being complicated is not fun.
115 is aged. AGED (but still amazing).
Make way for Archangel, Dead Again, The Gift, Where Are We Going
Kino the most recent map with flow?
Mob of the Dead, Der Esiendrache, Revelations to name a few.
Everyone gets a BONER for Mob of the Dead and maybe Origins (though when that came out that's where a lot of the complaints started IIRC).
These maps aren't complicated at all. Ya'll want it easy like Der Riese or Ascension. Nah bruh, this mode has longevity because it went beyond what we had in WAW and midway in BO1.
You guys want it easy, just play Infinite Warfare Zombies.

Aww dang. :-(
Literally what you're getting.
I mean, even if you ONLY liked the WAW maps (for some reason) you're getting the simple maps of that game. It's a win-win for everyone.
But it was. Five was a nice novelty but honestly a shit map.

Black Ops 3? Damn.
Is Activision burying the remaining Infinite Warfare copies alongside E.T. the game?

Looks like Yoji Shinkawa done some artwork for it!
Holy shit amazing, instant buy now for the dlc.

I remember saying to my uncle who was once a political prisoner from Cuba - "I'm playing as Fidel Castro running around the Pentagon with a laser zapper (ray gun), shooting zombies while Eminem is singing in the background."
You can literally see his brain explode from how insane it sounded to him.

The reason stuff like Five, Call of the Dead, Nuketown etc. are left out is because the whole idea is having all the levels with the original characters. I get it from a creative perspective but I'd rather have Five, Call of the Dead, and Tranzit instead of Shangri La, Moon, and Origins.
LOL
Five and Tranzit are pretty shit maps (especially tranzit). Moon should have been kicked off for MOTD. Or MOTD just added in general.
Hell naw

If I pulled that off, would you die?
"Faithful recreation"
I'm in. Too bad Five couldn't make it. Love that map.

The maps won't be put in the origins time-line like The Giant?

Its good, buts its when Zombies started to get more complicated.
Getting perks is a bitch on that map.

My friends and I are praying for the inclusion of the original guns from their respective games make it into the maps. Highly unlikely unfortunately.

I'm excited for this but man, I do wish my ps3 was still working as mine had died quite some time ago. They had released all the World at War maps for Black Ops and I had all the other dlc. But this is cheaper than buying a new ps3. I wonder when they will drop a trailer for it.
Slow? How so? If anything Black Ops 3 was when things started to get faster, what with sliding and more powerful weapons and thatish.

This is making me reconsider reinstalling Black Ops 3 for this DLC pack alone
Correct, though we have no idea if Season Pass holders will get it for free

Yes, Moon is considered the ending to that time line. The second time line started with Mob of the Dead -> Origins. Blundell was backed into a literary corner due to Moon having
multiple endings
He found a way to make the timelines intertwine as well.

Really sucks not having COTD and MOTD. Both were amazing maps.
I get the choice of maps from a story perspective but I really don't see why we need Nacht remade for the 20th time. I wish they would have left out the WaW maps altogether since they're a bit too simplistic for my liking (still love em) and given us COTD, MOTD and something else, maybe even Tranzit completely reworked without the fog and many of its other issues ironed out. Would love to see the map actually fixed and without the tech limitations.
In any case, really looking forward to the BO1 maps (which is when I feel zombies really hit its stride) and Origins, my personal favourite map of all time.

If that was true then all the zombies in BO3 would have much fuller playlists, last i checked yesterday only the first map, giants (a world at war map remake) and der eisenchrade is about 40%, 20%, 15% which is poor while the rest below 5% so many disagree with you

Think it possible they'll borrow some COD WWII weapon models for the W@W maps.
That's 4 MP maps. In this case, $30 would be an absolute steal, since only ONE Zombies map comes with each $15 DLC. So, Zombies players are used to paying $60 for 4 Zombies maps (or $50 for Season Pass), and this is 8 Zombies maps. Arguably $120 in value for Zombies players, so it could realistically cost $60 since they're remasters that also come with extra stuff.
If they only charge $30 for this, sales will go through the roof. The fact that they got Yoji Shinkawa for the new art makes it even sweeter.
I can only see it being 30 bucks if it is also can be played without owning Black ops 3. So a standalone release.

Presumably 30 days after ps4
No, quite a bit of zombie players hate moon and for good reason. The astronaut who steals perks, the low gravity which can lead to deaths, you have to wait a long time to get Jugg due to RNG/how you start the process. If you get downed after getting fully perked out then it's mostly game over considering how far away Jugg is and the fact you might have to make the teleport multiple times due to it being random. Then there's the dumb buzzsaws which fuck up the map even more.Top 5 for Easter Eggs though, but garbage for fun play.
