The reason why Collateral and Armada are so different is because they're Combined Arms maps, not Fireteam ones. Interestingly Zoo, despite being blatantly designed as a Fireteam map and having the "wz_" prefix in the game files, was never released as a Fireteam map and is exclusive to Outbreak.

Y'know what they should've done for the Excision bossfight? Two ordas. Change the models a bit, make one of them focus on ranged attacks and the other move lightly faster and only do Melee ones, call them The Twins or something. Just something more interesting, honestly. Literally a simple spin like "instead of one, it's two" is a million times more interesting than just copy and paste. Plus it'd make the amount of time you have to clear the LZ make sense. You just have way too much time for what is an Orda fight and a few zombies and specials. Also, quick nitpick you probly didn't notice: Die Maschine establishes that in the Dark Aether, corpses float up, however in the Holdout that doesn't happen. Probably an oversight.

The best part about Outbreak is how easy it is to just hop on and have a fun casual experience. I love going for high rounds on maps like Five and Shangri La but sometimes i wanna play with my feet kicked up!

Outbreak was honestly such a breath of fresh air. Shook up the gameplay just enough while keeping everything familiar. Even managed to get some friends who previously didn't like zombies into Cold war's zombies through Outbreak.

Honestly man, I couldn't agree more. It's also why I really REALLY hated what Vanguard zombies is doing now. We never got to see anything that is native to the Dark Aether. Everything we are fighting are things from our or previous worlds that were taken there and have been changed. The dark aether was this mysterious realm, you had cults who worshipped great beings, but we never knew anything about it. Hell, even the Forsaken was just a man who managed to survive far enough to become a "Deity" himself. So when Vanguard comes in and gives them faces and voices, it removes ALL of the interest I ever had. It went from this incomprehensible reality of sheer cosmic horror to some cool RPG Game designs that say over the top things. The dark aether shouldn't have a face. Honestly, that's depressing to the point I think I'll pretend Vanguard isn't Canon. It's not like it's any relevant to the story anyways. The dark aether barely started, it barely picked up its pace and momentum and somehow they managed to ruin the thing right away.

The mystery in the dark aether story is what's keeping me invested right now

I love seeing the Cold War music tracks edited in and popping up every time the music switch. Such a small detail but made the immersion so much better

I feel like Outbreak is the best thing that’s happened to Zombies since Zombies Chronicles. The community has asked for an open world experience for years, and Treyarch *delivered*. It sucks that some people won’t acknowledge it simply because of the CoD cycle (though, to be fair, the mode was barebones at launch, but it’s FAR from that now), but hey, it’s still incredible nonetheless. And yes, both Legion and OB Survival are awesome!

Thanks for the great content

Flat out agree with everything in this review and you managed to actually put into words some of the reasons I dislike some stuff, ESPECIALLY the dropping of Samantha as some sort of leader for the group. Also Super sprinters on the BO3 footage. New fear unlocked.

I’ve absolutely loved Outbreak’s roguelike and exploration feeling. Also there was a space to take a break and breathe unlike exhausting round-based maps. Absolutely amazing game mode. I’ve played for like 1000 hours and had a blast.

13:25 Hate to break it rizzo, but that woman is just a sticker you could get from the reserves from bo4 lol... No need to theorize it, it's just done artistically. You can also spot it on die maschine. And just like the ECM sound bug, the invincible zombie on onslaught hasn't been fixed to this day. The only way to kill it, is with the Frenzied Guard upgraded (Tier 3)...

I absolutely think that Outbreak has its place in the zombies mode. They have a really strong foundation, and if treyarch takes the feedback into consideration and fix all of the shortcomings, this community will grow to love it.

I love your reviews. Like the style and presentation with the small jokes sprinkled in are amazing. I can't wait to see what's next be it Persona, Halo, or more zombies

I always enjoy watching the reviews on this channel. I have since the Logan review, it’s nice to get an in depth look at someone’s opinion on things that I love.

I need to go on a little rant about the song Easter eggs, when I learned that they were all instrumental, I was kinda upset and it made me not want to do them.

But stuff like McCain or Revelations just being a bunch of maps fused together and some other more nitpicky stuff do sort of sow the seeds for Black Ops 4's terribly rushed conclusion to Aether and Cold War/Vanguard's "Quick, shove as many Black Ops characters not involved in the Warzone plot into Zombies" strategy. Like, don't get me wrong, the McCain thing is fanservice, but its not nearly as bad as revealing this potentially new, interesting direction you have for Zombies is just Richtofen sneaking around again for the umpteenth time. which, side note, Black Ops as a whole has just dropped like, 3 or 4 storylines.

John, I must say that the format of your review series is one, that I think, is very underutilized in the KZread landscape. What I like most is that positives and negatives are split into their own sections, so that it gives a more objective analysis. So many other reviews, while still great, feel like the positives overshadow or downplay the negatives, and vice versa. With how people treat media as simple as "it's either God tier masterpiece, or a shit stain on creation," it's great to see someone finally give something where credit is due, and when something needs to be properly criticized. One problem though is that it may feel "soulless." Not saying that you don't care, but it may feel very confined and straightforward like watching a lecture rather than a talk with a friend. Overall, some good stuff.

I always held Outbreak in extremely high regard for a few reasons, especially as someone who's been a zombies sweat since WaW days. The break from the norm was very welcome in my opinion, while Tortured Path tried to break away, that human rights violation of a zombies "mAp" just sucked outright, despite how good some of the WW2 zombies maps were. Outbreak on the other hand is a pretty relaxing mode to play, while there aren't crazy differences in each game you play, that goes for the zombies mode as a whole either way. Despite Outbreak being one of my favourite zombies experiences I absolutely do not think this is what should take over round based, the literal reason I did not buy Vanguard is because I saw what the zombies ended up being like and it is miserable through and through. The mode would best suit exactly how it worked in Cold War, which now that the season's been concluded for many months it has really grown into an impressive zombies game (despite how little time they've been given fuck you Activision). Outbreak especially has grown and developed over the season and about halfway between Mauer and Forsaken, became a surprisingly fleshed out mode with some impressive replayability and enjoyment, while still retaining that classic "hop on for a chill game of zombies" energy. These reviews have been amazing though, and I honestly believe that despite the other zombies games being many years old it would be cool to see a review series on the older zombies games. Though, you'd have to endure many hours of some of the most miserable zombies experiences ever (ahemIW).

First time watching one of your videos, love the your mom jokes sprinkled in. I also had no idea you could skip an extra world level at all. I'll have to give it a try next time.

As someone who really likes Outbreak despite its flaws, I really appreciated this very balanced review. Great job, Rizzo!

These have been bloody brilliant thank you Rizzo. Any chance you dare do a retrospective on the older maps?

One of the best things about Outbreak is the Demented Echo imo, it's quite interesting to find one just chilling or hearing the scream and trying to kill it before it gets you because you ran by them without noticing

For those looking for a challenge in round based, use the Marshals with rampage inducer on Mauer. Turning on power is difficult without staminup.

A few of my own thoughts and opinions: - I'm surprised you barely touched on the mode's update history. To me personally, I feel like that's part of the reason it wasn't well received. When the mode first launched in season 2, it was a brand new experience the likes of which we'd never seen before. So much space and unprecedented freedom. But the initial wonder went away pretty quickly. The mode suffered from the same problems which Der Anfang now faces, in that it felt really "underbaked" at launch with only 3 maps (Alpine, Ruka and Golova) and no easter egg quest. It might not seem like a big deal, but it's hard to remember the last time we had a zombies map of any kind without a main quest. Long-time players like myself found Outbreak at launch to be really shallow. Besides levelling up weapons, grinding challenges or just trying to see how high of a round you can make it to, there was no "end goal" to work towards, and I think that's why a lot of players dropped off initially. - The Holdout objectives are probably my personal favourites. It reminds me of playing a bare-bones map like Nacht der Untoten or COD WWII's Groesten Haus. Just you and your buddies, locked in a tiny room with just an ammo box, some breakable crystals, a bunch of boarded up windows and endless hordes of zombies that slowly ramp up as the timer ticks down, until by the end all the windows are broken as you desperately circle-strafe around a massive horde as you beg the clock to reach 0. Sometimes, that's all you really need. - The loot crates play a modified version of the Coalesence Corporation jingle from BO3's campaign when you're close. I just thought that's a nice touch. - The Legion fight would be so much more bearable if there weren't endless hordes of every special enemy in the game at once. That's the reason why it's the only easter egg in Cold War I still haven't completed. I've tried going solo, I've tried going with 1, 2, 3 friends who all knew what they were doing. We've tried having an MMO raid setup with a dedicated DPS, healer and tank. Every single time the hordes ended up overwhelming us. A random Mimic would grab someone, or someone would get stuck between a Soldat and a wall, or whatever. That's why I've given up on trying to defeat this motherfucker. - I'm also not a big fan of the black chest world event. It just doesn't feel challenging enough IMO. All you really do is stand in place and shoot an orb as it flies past while dodging zombies, rinse and repeat until all 3 orbs have been destroyed. The amount of zombies it throws at you never really poses a challenge unless you shoot all 3 orbs at once. And the rewards you get from it are great, but they feel really situational. If you get the chest on round 1 that's great, you get a free pack-a-punch and get to save 5000 points for something else. But if you get it on round 2 or 3, chances are by then you already have 1 or 2 weapons which you've already packed once, so there's no reason to do the chest unless you want a few extra points. - This is moreso a comment on the Firebase maps themselves, but Treyarch really put a lot of time and effort into these places, getting all the little details right, the maps feel so genuine and lived in. See, my family comes from Belarus, one of the former Soviet republics, and although we emigrated to Canada in 2000, I've gone back to visit relatives several times and I've seen places in real life that look exactly like Golova, Ruka, Zoo, etc. Right down to the tiniest details, like if you go into the little cafes in Golova, you'll see old-school cash registers and scales, and the menu will have traditional Slavic comfort food on it like borsht, uha and rassolnik. Even though Outbreak can feel like Treyarch haphazardly slapped zombies into multiplayer maps, there's so much thought put into the maps themselves.

@@Tyler_82 Yeah I know about the ghost. But here's my problem with it. First of all, you can only carry one extra life ghost at a time, so if you already got the black chest on round 1 there's basically no reason to do it again if it comes up again on round 3. And, as Rizzo mentioned, with the way the difficulty scaling works the first 3-4 rounds are really easy. Plus, there's no denying that Outbreak takes a very long time depending on what you're doing. Just setting up for the Legion easter egg while doing all the main and optional objectives over 5 rounds before you get to the Ruka silos takes about an hour, especially if you're playing solo. A lot of people just prefer to exfil out at round 3-5 because they get bored or are grinding guns. And lastly, while I'm not denying that the extra life ghost is a great perk, it still doesn't help that the core black chest gameplay of sitting around and shooting orbs is really boring.

I love the cut to the conclusion title!

Great review Rizzo! However I was hoping you'd mention how bland the gameplay can get inspite of how much there is to do. For me, in spite of how much I too appreciate the freedom of approach you have in Outbreak, the fact alone that you'll be doing the same objectives repeatedly got old pretty quick. To circumvent this, part of me always wished they'd add modifiers of some sort; be it map weather changes, increased special/elites spawns or changes to standard zombie behaviour. As much as everyone laments Vanguard, I think combat modifiers alongside it's addition of Covenants would contribute to a psuedo-fresh feeling experience.

LES GOOOO NEW RIZZO VIDEO LES GOOO I LOVE YOU

Gimme the security breach critique Rizzo! I KNOW YOU HAVE IT!

Gonna miss the cold war series, love every single review you have mate.

Great review Rizzo. It's not a perfect comparison but Outbreak from CW feels like a better executed bo4 mutations to me. The community was so excited by the idea of customizing a match from the very start with bo4 mutations, but the overwhelming volume of customizability scared off a lot of people, even hardcore players (also disabling easter eggs was super dumb). Outbreak gives you true freedom to completely change your gameplay at a moment's notice, instead of being something you have to commit to for the entire match, which fits a lot better imo.

I honestly did enjoy Outbreak a lot. I had (and still have) concerns that it'll overtake round-based completely due to the fact that you can easily reuse (larger) MP maps for it, but I think that's going to happen eventually. Already /is/ happening to a certain extent with Vanguard, so the quicker you come to terms with that the better, I think.

Try to imagine a dmz mode but with zombies, a survival horror cod style with extraction mechanics, loot, quest and players in a huge map.. This could be amazing

31:08 I have been saying this for months and I am glad someone sees it this way too. Der Anfang has been dogpiled on ever since launch because of this very reason. Because of no round based map to keep players occupied and this being the only thing Vanguard Zombies have to offer currently, so many people got pissed

easiest way to do the legion boss is nearly kill all 3 orbs without breaking one to lessen the time inside the closed cirlce`s, with more bosses, dont use a wonder weapon and it spawns less bosses, dual wield amp will be the easiest spawns as they are pistol classed, hopefully anybody struggling to do this is helped

Apparently the lost soul in the black box is pyotr from the intel

That glitch you mentioned, happen to me on PS5. All sounds were muted, even background apps and shit so I exited and it fixed it. It was the PS4 version I was playing via backwards compatibility because this never happened to me on the PS5 version.

Nicd job bro

Loved the vid and series, make sure to take some time to yourself if you need it bro, it’s not super crucial.

That might just be the best actually funny (and respectful) gay joke I’ve heard in a long time. Bravo, Rizzo.

Another amazing video by rizzo please do IW zombies now Oh and IX please

Yo, new Rizzo video dropped

I love you John !!!

Just started playing Outbreak and I enjoy it more than I thought I would

Can you do a deep dive into the outbreak lore? I haven't found anyone who's done a great job of this

I’d be okay with outbreak returning with ORIGINAL maps that perhaps melt together older maps in the dark aether
