Pros
Pro Great level design
All maps are quite different from each other and feature good design of the defend and attack dimensions. This makes for good balance that is not often found in many multiplayer games.
Pro Each team requires vastly different play styles
Each team has different skills and objectives, meaning different tactics are required to succeed. Changing teams is a great way to switch up the gameplay without having to leave the game.
Pro Fun and newly added character powers to the series
Black Ops 3 has a new addition of character powers that come in a basic range of melee, ranged and mind control. Each gives a certain perk that can be used in the game which allows for a few different play-styles (depending on ones weapon load-out). This way players can feel as though their character is a little more unique to them due to how one will play with what they have chosen to use.
Cons
Con Requires commitment to get used to the mechanics
Hitting the target requires pinpoint precision, and learning the ins and outs of the game mechanics may take a while. This means you may need to spend a fair amount of time practicing before you’re fully comfortable with the game.
Con Poor character development
The story mode of the game is quite short at 6 hours, which means there is little time for much character development. While the overall story is interesting and brings up some themes not often found in game, by the time the game starts trying to get a pay off with certain characters, there has been little in the way of making the player chare about their conclusion or outcome, which can be frustrating to not be very invested in the games story.
