Fan Feedback
One player stated:
"Black Ops 6 wasn't perfect, but it felt like COD was back. Zombies were great, the campaign was okay, and the multiplayer felt like it used to. But Black Ops 7 brought back everything we hated and took away everything we loved."
Activision's AI Admission
Activision has admitted to using AI in the game's development, fueling further controversy, especially regarding the calling cards. Some players have noticed similarities between the calling cards and AI-generated Studio Ghibli recreations.
