The Zombies Map Cursed to Fail...

The Zombies Map Cursed to Fail...
The Tomb is not the worst map in Zombies history, nor is the buggiest, hardest or easiest. However, a series of poor choices and bad execution led to an unfortunate set of circustances for the Tomb. Relying on the nostalgia of Origins seemed like a good marketing move, but I think it has probably done the map more harm than good. Enjoy!

What are YOUR impressions of The Tomb and do you think they'll change with time? 🤔

[@tylerveilleux1940]

This map is like zns from bo3 I think, where because of the quality of maps prior people are giving it tons of shit, and the fact the map is being compared to origins, it's pretty hated right now. I will admit it's definitely not a good map, maybe a 7/10 at best but I think in time people will definitely come around to it

[@VoidX37]

I think it's just a fun side map to go with citadelle tbh, narrative shortcomings aside I'm having fun with it. And I also feel opinions will shift positively or negatively depending on how much depth the remaining maps will have, to help round out the selection of experiences we end up with.

[@Vordb666]

It's fine. Gameplay wise it's fun simply designed Zombies map that's ultimately just a sandbox for players to run around and do the same shit on like any other map, so all the easter eggs and other little embellishments are just there to keep you engaged while you, you know, do the same shit over and over again round by round lol. The map doesn't push the story forward in any super deep meaningful way and the final boss fight is annoying as hell but other than that it's, well, fine. Of course the launch day bugs didn't help but Treyarch has been good about addressing the critical stuff with urgency

[@cheeseoh]

It doesn't fit here even tho the road to the boss is small, the preparation is huge which such a low payoff.

Map is such a letdown

[@EvilScotsman1994]

Then don't play it.... There are over a decade worth of zombie maps.... go play something else

[@Assassins-RP]

@@EvilScotsman1994Scrutinising an opinion? Go outside bruh

[@Jomygunz]

They just need to make a zombies only game with all the guns and perks and they could keep operator skin and have the base skins be unlock by playing the map as that story character like you go on five as JFK and now you can play on the IW maps as him🤷‍♂️ and you can buy bundles if you want But if they make a game like that the private game would need to be so customizable like being able to turn on all the mini bosses on whatever map or having all the guns in the box and wall buys be random every game or the perks move around. Like there is so many things they could do with zombies but instead we stuck in the loop of having a new buggy game every year that get worse each year like cod need a massive reset 😔

referencing "the excavation site" in france post ww2 was so stupid in my opinion

[@deadinside1662]

Wanna fix zombies? Bring double tap back, Remove score streaks, Remove armor plates, Add unique shields back, stop making 3 different special enemies spawn on every map, bring back hellhounds not fucking bugs, and Remove salvage from the game period. Re roll ammo mods at packapunch.

[@BasedMysticPikachu]

So essentually make it the same exact product we got 10 years ago. Lmao no. Stay on BO3 you nostalgia drone

[@deadinside1662]

@BasedMysticPikachu You mean the absolute peak of zombies? Yes. But i never said changes couldn't be made. Zombies hasn't kept its core in years and that's what's wrong. The maps have no soul and they've changed the core gameplay.

[@glitchedpersonality]

If they had made the ice staff weak, it would be another huge fumble. The ice staff is the best staff in origins, so if they brought it back weaker, it would be another cut sliver. Remember, death by a thousand cuts

[@devin300]

The “bug” of missing the rock when going through the portal, isn’t a bug at all. 😂 it’s from inputting the code wrong. People who don’t enjoy this map, just choose not to. I figured out this egg my first play through with zero issues.

[@user-mn9sq8gh3n]

The boss "mirror" you keep mentioning makes a lot of sense story-wise, and I enjoyed it. Just because it's not an over-the-top boss fight does not make it bad this community keeps saying the same thing every year.

[@BasedMysticPikachu]

Hence why I distanced myself from it. People are gonna be calling BO6 underrated in about 2-3 years

[@alexskocy9948]

I feel like everyone forgot that treyarch said this map was made to be a smaller map with a more simple EE like liberty falls. They both bring back an old WW, have fairly easy "defend thing" steps for most parts of the ee, and the boss fight is jsut surviving waves of zombies but tomb has a dps check

[@sidwalk]

Then don't nostalgia bait fans with Ice Staff,France Excavation Site Location Tease and Origins music. Treyarch Dig their own grave.

[@Daxel134]

​@@sidwalk I think this is the biggest reason they got so much hate. Origins is the fan favorite map and you cant just nostalgia bait for a small simple map. I like the actual map and think it plays well but doing the origin nods was insanely bad call

[@hatboxghost735]

That wasn’t a bug if they fell, they entered the wrong code…

[@openmilhouse]

4:50, I feel like this could’ve been remedied by simply making it so the staff cant appear in the box until after you’ve built the staff in the intended way. Or simply making it so multiple people can pick up the built one and just negate the box entirely

[@bourne8636]

As a zombies veteran I just played bo6 zombies for the first time and I love it, don’t know why everyone hates it.

[@toomuchbrag]

I was a huge destiny 2 player and I hope they use the bungie playbook more with zombies. They should add difficulty modifiers and more wipe mechanics during boss fights etc. destiny players know. It would be mad fun. First time I was like “dps check from destiny? Yup” “ aint no way there’s a wipe mechanic 😂”

[@Doyle69]

I feel Activision and Treyarch loaded Ai with all the other Black Ops games and asked it to spit out something sh*t...and there....Black Ops 6 was created.

[@FlipFlopPez]

If they designed the EE well, they would have indicated bullet weapons were required during the EE steps before the boss fight. At least Bungie use the HUD and environment to indicate what is coming or required during the boss fights.

[@richieaprile3256]

zombies downfall is the fact they make there game too open so it can be for everyone so og players don’t give a fuck anymore and the rest of the fanbase doesn’t have the attention span to care longer than 3 months and also it’s just dog shit so that doesn’t help

[@bexxxx9792]

Thank you for putting out this video. I agree with all points made. Immediately comparing this map to origins was a huge mistake and honestly set the map up to fail from the get go. We will all immediately start comparing the two by default. Bad decisions. It’s orgins for f sakes. I posted a bad review of the map online and got roasted so I’m glad to see the OGs watched this video and feel the same as I do. You’re sitting waiting for the damn lanterns twice.. you sit and count to 10 or 8 twice.. then complete lock down after lock down it’s just lazy.. as of now I could only beat the boss fight with a cheese and idc. And no intro cut scene so awkward same with literally no commentary at the end. This map was either going to revive or kill the game and I believe it killed it. I don’t have high hopes for the rest of the game. Especially if it’s true there are only 2 DLCs left. There’s 6 seasons… what will the rest of the game have? Maybe the map will grow on me but I feel like they just took a huge 💩 on my favorite map of all time.

[@shujihar2410]

May be a hot take but honestly the issue that zombies has with using ice staff is you expect a massive map and detailed ee that forces the exploration of a big map and they gave us the equivalent of spawn with gen 2 and 3 with a more basic version of the staff room if you wanna compare to origins, Tldr: too small which a bigger map is expected if we have a map so heavily based on origins and ee doesn't fit with what origins ee felt like

[@gogadgetgo3125]

Great commentary and great points. Well elucidated, thanks Evan!!

[@noboddygivesashit1533]

When origins launced it had 4 original wonderweapons, an original boss enemy and an original special round enemy. It had map exclusive weapons( do you remember when that was a thing?). It came out with many original features and cool set pieces like the tree robots, the tank, the crazy place and the teleporters. It was littered with side content like the metal fist, and of course the staffs. It had new buildables like tha maxis drone and the g strike. Innovations like challenges and the wonderfizz. It had an intro cutscene. And even small things like a uniqe pack a punch and box design. Now over 12 years later wtih the lauch of The Tomb we have absoluteley none of this:)

[@BeaKOnYT]

Because this isn’t Origins, fivehead

[@noboddygivesashit1533]

@ My point is that we are getting less content then we used to, but the games are more expensive

[@danielpritchard7399]

​@@noboddygivesashit1533did you forget that with origins we had to pay for dlc where as with this game we haven't had to pay for a single dlc. Not saying that this is better than origins but saying that it's more expensive is just wrong.

[@karleatskibble6165]

@@danielpritchard7399if you factor in how much money treyarch make from skins in the store and the battle pass they are receiving a shit load more money than they used to. Skins in BO2 use to be £1.99 now they’re 4x that on the low end so I believe that offsets the dlc price tenfold

[@joshuahearne4811]

​@danielpritchard7399 yet cod is making way more than they were back in bo2 they aren't poor at treyarch

[@gsaiyan2992]

The falling from the sky and not landing on the platform isn’t a bug. That’s you not putting In the correct code. You shoot any three symbols and the door will open. But if not correct you fall and you’ll hear a sinister version of the Simpson kid laughing at you.

[@11Assassinator11]

11:50 you actually don't have to kill for this step, killing just makes the ball move faster witch requires all members to be more alert bc if you get too far, you fail. You just need to follow it.

[@LingDingKing]

Hopefully ,and I’m being really optimistic, this is just a slight hiccup. The last 3 maps have become fan favorites within the community and I would hate for all the progress they made with the first 3 maps to be wasted with future DLC.

[@midnitecro3915]

The map is small and you shoot a mirror as a 'boss' One of the worse maps ever imo.

[@oscarcruz4957]

i feel this map is okay for an introduction to the more complex maps but it’s not all as bad as people make it out to be. yeah there’s bugs, yes treyarch might be lazy but people are just so pissy about the whole scenario. it’s not treyarchs fault cod has been declining since 2020 and like it or not this adds to the sentiment. people need to see the content for what it is and not what they want it to be because with that attitude NOTHING will be enough

[@DeadHatzGuy]

Easter egg was lack luster but the map itself is very fun I think

[@Eilewot402]

If anyone is still getting crashes on tomb after turning off “gore”, try changing display mode. I changed mine from “fullscreen exclusive” to “fullscreen borderless” and haven’t had an issue yet

[@HVN_LGND]

For some reason, I haven't experienced any of these bugs, and it was a really clean experience for me. Not sure why, but I guess I was an exception.

[@nathansamuelson]

I played it once with friends, didn't have fun, then looked up the easter egg since I didn't see how to progress any of it. I don't think I'll be on Tomb again...

[@LilBabyPenguin0x]

Falling from the sky after shooting the runes on the rocks means you did not input the right symbols, not a glitch

[@CombatWombatSeanSpencer]

Good video for sure. I love the tomb so far. I actually really enjoy all of the new maps. But if you really want me to nitpick, the tomb is missing story, voice lines. I kinda feel lonely if I play it. But then maybe that just adds to the atmosphere I guess. Glass a half full. Thanks for the video.

[@xyxyx1234]

I'm definitely with the commenter at 3:33. Split screen has been something that me and my girlfriend have enjoyed on this game since Modern Warfare 3 and when Black Ops 6 launched it was really laggy and crappy on split screen but we figured that they would work on it and get it fixed. Now with season 2s release we are unable to play split screen at all. The while reason i got the game was so me and my partner could shoot some sh** together and now we can't.

[@Hollywood1127]

Will we ever get a TRANZIT map again? It's been at least 10 years.
