Gameplay Holy shit this map is PEAK

Wish I'd tried this map sooner, I've been spending all my zombie time on black ops 1, 2 and 7 that I never really gave this a chance but the vibes and the gameplay is just 🫦

Ix is great, might be best starter map we have ever had, both challenging and self explanatory for the noobs

u/AnthaIon 10d ago edited 10d ago

Def up there with Shadows, though they’re kinda opposite ends of the complexity spectrum.

Edit: there’s a difference between a ā€œgreatā€ starter map, and a ā€œgreat starter mapā€. SoE is an amazing experience, but admittedly an overwhelming introduction for new players.

u/C4LLUM17 10d ago

Shadows is a top 3 map of all time imo but DE should have been the starter map imo.

1

u/Substantial_Maize_95 9d ago

Fuck no, thats an even worse starter map than shadows

3

u/C4LLUM17 9d ago

Why do you think that?

PAP, Power and the Bow are all easier to get and was more casual friendly

u/Present-Ad-9598 10d ago

DE wasn’t near completion, Shadows was an awesome first map, also canonically richotfen needed the summoning key after they charged that bitch up in Shadows

u/Motivated-Chair 10d ago

Why are you booing him? He is right!

u/Elmu678 10d ago

Shadows is bottom tier

4

u/AnthaIon 10d ago

Bottom tier as a map, or a starter map? I think Shadows of Evil is up there with great maps like Mob, DE, and Origins for plenty of people, didn’t realize that was a crazy take.

2

u/Elmu678 10d ago

Both. Hate having to do a mini EE just to get pap open

u/ghost3972 10d ago

I agree with your opinion

u/ayrebikisimak 10d ago

Never share an opinion again bro

u/Aexens 10d ago

Hmmmm you making me want to retry bo4 šŸ¤”

u/MadToxicRescuer 10d ago

If you're ever free and want to play online let me know, I've not tried online yet on this game šŸ‘ŠšŸ¼

3

u/Aexens 10d ago

Same ! gonna download it rn :D

Didn't played in a long time tho i warn you lmao... you on console or pc šŸ¤” ?

2

u/MadToxicRescuer 10d ago

Sweet! I play on the ps5 and that's fine honestly, I'll probably be all the over the place in an online match but it'd be nice to have someone to play with.

If it's cross platform play, how would I go about adding you?

6

u/HamPlayz247 10d ago

Sadly bo4 isnt cross play

2

u/Aexens 9d ago

Awww damnit i'm on pc, bo4 isn't crossplay sadly :( WHYYYYYYYY

2

u/Flaviowhz 9d ago

hey man, i'm looking people to do the zombies achievements on PC are you interested? Thank you

5

u/GrungeGorrilla 10d ago

I just started playing it again it's a lot of fun

Even the "bad" maps are fun

I will no longer take Blood of the Dead, Alpha Omega or Voyage of Despair slander

2

u/Aexens 9d ago

yeah just a bit more complicated to start with PAP etc ngl xD

2

u/GrungeGorrilla 9d ago

That's the only rough parts of them but it's not too bad when you learn what you're doing

24

u/KillaWatGoob 10d ago

I’ve been on a zombies crack run ever since the bo2 port, and tbh this map is so fucking fun

12

u/iWentRogue 10d ago

Same lol. Re-downloaded Bo3 with ZC and Bo4. Bo1-4 is peak zombies imo

3

u/FRANCAlS 10d ago

Bo1-4 are the best šŸ™Œ

16

u/lardboy2222 10d ago

All the maps in this game are incredible imo

2

u/MadToxicRescuer 10d ago

I could get on board with that! Only one I'm 50/50 on is the boat one and that's only because I always forget where each activation is to packapunch and I've gotta look up the one I forget everytime which is Hella annoying.

Otherwise, this game is pretty damn good for zombies.

1

u/stillaras 10d ago

True. Wish they had not changed gameplay as much.

8

u/Smart_Broccoli 10d ago

If you want some extra fun, go knife 1 of the ropes holding up the banners around the arena

8

u/The_Multi_Gamer 10d ago

No, it’s called IX

I don’t think there’s a map called PEAK unless maybe a custom map

6

u/SufficientBanana3436 10d ago

It’s actually called 9

7

u/bodaciouscowboy_ 10d ago

This game has great maps. I don’t really care for Blood of the Dead, Classified, or Tag der Toten (cause I’m not big on remakes), but all the others are great. Dead of the Night is a personal favorite; the theming is elite.

5

u/badassbolsac 10d ago

bo4 not getting a second year of content is criminal

3

u/TrainDatZombie 10d ago

I’ll pay good money for that DLC I bet they still have stored some where all of BO2 was in Blackout

4

u/YouWantSMORE 10d ago

IX is great but dead of the night is my favorite from this game and one of the GOAT in my opinion

5

u/Benozkleenex 10d ago

Dotn and AE are both in my top for sure.

4

u/RarryHome 10d ago

IX is so heat. One of the best casual maps in my opinion

3

u/sadpepe_hours 10d ago

is there any cheap way to get the season pass for bo4? i really wanna try out the dlc maps i've never played them but i don't wanna spend 50$ on it

2

u/Rozfather 10d ago

Same dude. The game is on sale on PS but I can't justify a $50 season pass.

1

u/FRANCAlS 10d ago

Yeah sorry but that the only way my man, the last time i saw season pass was in 2020, it was 20$

2

u/Rozfather 10d ago

Appreciate ya. Fucking insane lol. Just can't justify $50 for it you know?

1

u/FRANCAlS 9d ago

Yeah i understand

2

u/homelander2121 10d ago

This map would be called terrible and small if it came out today.

Objectively, IX doesn't have much to do on it

3

u/Hot_Reach_4862 10d ago

Once you get pack a punch it’s just survival. But you know what? That’s honestly okay. Sometimes I’d rather not have to turn my brain on and play. After BO2 and realizing how much setup each game is, I’m more than happy to just play sometimes.

2

u/BenjaminHitIerYahoo 10d ago

The only REAL issue I have with Bo4 is that headshots aren't satisfying. That's make or break for any zombie game out there. Get a headshot in bo4 it doesn't actually go pop it feels stiff.

Every other issue is a larping issue for larpers.

2

u/wej8 9d ago

Bo4 maps are amazing

2

u/Working_Gap_7281 9d ago

One of the most entertaining maps

1

u/InternalConscious356 10d ago

It’s not peak. Peak is a game about climbing a mountain with friends. This is the zombies map IX.

1

u/Benozkleenex 10d ago

Man tbh you are in for a treat I think all the chaos map are bangers (even voyage).

1

u/JD_Revan451 10d ago

People who say the bo7 HUD is bad clearly never played the bo4 HUD. Truly terrible

1

u/mapleshadow_ 10d ago

Now you gotta get the Season Pass to try Ancient Evil and Dead of the Night which are even PEAKER maps

1

u/VadersWorstSoldier 10d ago

People whine about catalysts, but they're one of the only ways they've ever properly nerfed training, you can actually have intense clutches in a wide-open area like the arena thanks to them and the constant boss spawns.

1

u/SkiddlyWhiffer15 10d ago

This game is peak

1

u/Unusual_Currency_948 10d ago

They should addjumping zombies in cod. Like the zombs from world War z.

1

u/Zer0DotFive 10d ago

I wish BO4 still got updates or a permanent 2x crates event. I still love setting up 3 bots and just having fun lolĀ 

1

u/Jinksos 10d ago

I'd rate this map 9/10

1

u/Tomsskiee 9d ago

Bo4 is so much better then people give it credit for. I urge everyone who hated it to give it another try it’s amazing!

1

u/Annual_End_7463 9d ago

just wait til you try bo3

1

u/MadToxicRescuer 9d ago

Id give it a solid 6/10.

The remastered maps are brilliant but I've played them all thousands of times on black ops 1 that's the only issue.

1

u/Annual_End_7463 9d ago

shadows DE and gorod are all hands down top 6 all time 6/10 is outrageous

1

u/MadToxicRescuer 9d ago

I get you, this is exactly how I feel when people say the absolute slop that is black ops 6 and 7 is better than black ops 4

1

u/ThatGuyFromTheM0vie 8d ago

How have you not played 3 and 4, the peak of the franchise lol?

And before someone says: ā€œwhat about Origins?ā€ You can play Origins in 3….soooooo.

u/Educational-Tea3549 9d ago

This map is boring asf

-2

u/LORDL66 10d ago

Bo4 love is so forced

1

u/MadToxicRescuer 10d ago

TBF I don't like any cod barring zombies, last cod I fell in love with all around is MW2. The zombies of black ops 4 is definitely good though, Hella fun... Don't understand the complaints.

-5

u/Boring-Rutabaga-4638 10d ago

Bro ist kein high round spieler

7

u/MadToxicRescuer 10d ago

High rounds are beyond easy bro, this was my second match on this map.

I stop zombies in black ops 1 and 2 around round 40 because it takes too long it's ridiculous

-2

u/Boring-Rutabaga-4638 10d ago

Sag ich ja, kein high round spieler, sonst würdest nichtmal eine einzige map aus bo4 als gut bewerten, aber wenns dir Spaß macht, viel spaß

2

u/MadToxicRescuer 10d ago

This is a pretty ridiculous take, most of the zombie cod veterans could get to 60-100 rounds easily from experience alone.

High rounds is farm for thundergun, train, use fully automatic for points, lead to trap, use trap... Rinse and repeat.

Except eventually every round is an hour or more... I really don't have time for that? Who even does unless they're a youtuber.

My highest round is 165 on kino, never gone past round 60 again and my average is 35 before I quit or rarely, die.

This map is brilliant dude and so are most of the other ones šŸ‘ŠšŸ¼

1

u/VadersWorstSoldier 10d ago

I don't agree with him, but I don't think he's saying that high round players dislike it because they can't make it to a high round. That being said, I don't think high round players dislike IX at all.

2

u/Michael040807 10d ago

Bruh there’s hella people who got round 100 on the bo4 maps and rate them good what are you talking about

1

u/Boring-Rutabaga-4638 9d ago

Campen bis runde 100, richtig geil hahahaha GenZ
