Every year, I forget how much I love to play Call of Duty.
Every. Fucking. Year.
The beta for Black Ops 3 just went public for a few days, so I played a few matches of it. Aside from some pretty serious lag issues, probably due to the fact that this is a beta, I had a really good time with the newest game in the series. The game is set in the near future and features a few tricks from Advanced Warfare, including the double jump jet pack and wall running. It takes out ground dashing though, so it still feels quite different.
Every thing feels right when playing Black Ops 3 online. It's easy to forget how well that series handles... There are now specialist classes that feature one special ability that charges through the match as the player scores points. I picked the Prophet and the Glitch ability. This lets me teleport back to my previous steps, making for some interesting mobility options. It's actually hard to use well, but can be very powerful.
I played well, picking the only LMG available and rocking it from the beginning of game one. My kill/death ratio was great throughout, hovering around the 1.40 mark in most matches. The maps are really cool too. I love Black Ops 3 so far, if only they can sort out the lag issues.
