Call of Duty: Black Ops III (PS4) (Pre-owned)

Version 1.00 included on disc. Version 8.0.0.0 is displayed in-game. This build is newer than the public beta but still has many differences compared to the day-one version of the game.

Campaign, Multiplayer, Zombies, and Freerun are all included on disc and can be played offline.

Note that all save data is separate between online and offline mode. It is still possible to save your progress offline, but it will not carry over into online mode and vice versa.

The Emblem Editor, Paintshop (camo creator), and Gunsmith (custom weapon creator) are all considered “Online Only” features and cannot be accessed while offline.

Campaign notes:
Campaign is fully playable offline. Split-screen Co-Op is not on disc and requires an update; however, it is still possible to play co-op over LAN without the update (Tested with 2 players).

All Campaign progression works offline, including the ability to unlock camos and calling cards, as well as the ability to carry those over into offline multiplayer and zombies.

Issues encountered:
⁃ Framerate can be inconsistent especially during really intense moments.
⁃ Encountered an instance where the game started stuttering heavily in one area, but it went away after about a minute.
⁃ Encountered a few instances where all of the cyber core icons would just display a white square when selecting them at the upgrade station.
⁃ Encountered various minor instances of objects disappearing when looking at them from specific angles or standing in a specific spot
⁃ For the ARK-7 weapon, the unlockable Jungle camo only appears on a portion of the weapon.
⁃ All unlockable campaign reticles seem to be missing from the disc build.

Multiplayer notes:
The entire multiplayer mode is playable offline either solo with bots, with up to 4 players in split-screen, or with up to 18 players via LAN (2 LAN players tested). Note that LAN play is unavailable in Multiplayer if you are playing with more than 2 split-screen players.

Most multiplayer progression is disabled offline; instead, the game unlocks everything from the start, with the exception of the campaign camos and the weapon mastery camos such as Gold, Diamond, and Dark Matter.

Issues encountered:
⁃ Framerate issues can occur if you are playing with a full 18-player lobby with bots, especially if a lot of the bots are all standing in the same area.
⁃ Encountered an instance where the winners circle showed the incorrect names for each player.
⁃ When playing Safeguard, going into overtime will cause the match point counter to stop displaying correctly; however, the points still seem to count.
⁃ The icon for the multiplayer camo “Snow Job” shows what seems to be an earlier version of the camo.
⁃ All Specialist emotes are missing from the disc build.
⁃ The ARK-7 weapon was renamed to the KN-44 with the day-one patch.

Zombies notes:
Zombies mode is playable offline. Split-screen co-op is not on disc and requires an update; however, it is still possible to play co-op over LAN (2 players tested). The Shadows of Evil map is included on disc.

Most Zombies progression is disabled while offline; however, just like Multiplayer, all of the standard Zombies unlocks are unlocked from the start offline, with the exception of any of the premium consumable Gobblegums.

Issues encountered:
⁃ All of the Zombies-specific reticles seem to be missing from the disc build.
⁃ It is also not possible to change your reticle in Zombies without the update.
⁃ No camos exist for the Bowie Knife off disc, and the menu for the camos shows a white rectangle where the names of the camos would normally be.
⁃ Some minor framerate dips and stutters were encountered.
⁃ The bonus points for going prone in front of the Stamin-Up machine do not seem to work properly off disc.

Nightmares Notes:
The bonus Nightmares campaign is included on disc however beating the campaign does not unlock it as intended. The only way to access it off disc is by going to the Data Vault in the campaign…
