Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 was naturally one of the most anticipated games of 2015 and a little over a week after release, gamers are still playing like crazy.
Treyarch has definitely been one of the most innovative of the Call of Duty developers, including their addition of Zombies mode in the past and present, and that creativity is very present in Call of Duty: Black Ops 3.
The multiplayer is the most important part of Call of Duty: Blacks Ops 3, as always with this series, and with a very futuristic take, we have some very neat weapons here, with the new Specialist classes really showcasing those.
Split across 9 different Specialist classes that each offer two special abilities that can be unlocked, the multiplayer gameplay is really shaken up in Call of Duty: Black Op 3.
At the start of the game, players have access to four of the Specialist classes, with five more unlocking at higher levels. However, just having them available doesn’t mean you can use their abilities, as you also need to use unlock tokens to unlock their abilities. My personal favorite is the Outrider ability for Sparrow, but there are so many to use.
From the beginning, you get one unlock token that will give you one ability to choose to use in battle, though these are only available a few times each round. Once you unlock two abilities on the same Specialist, you will have to choose which one you want in battle, so essentially there are 18 total moves you can choose from in Call of Duty: Black Ops 3, though split across the nine classes, all of which you can see below.
