So I know there's was already a thread about this but I stopped looking for it after 5 pages...
But anyways, this will hopefully be the official Black Ops thread. Talk about it, discuss it, etc. Obviously, the game isn't out yet, but w/e. (That was a ****load of commas)

1) You only get two perks in mutliplayer, and this combination of perks determines your third perk. 2) There is a new armour system, e.g. Cold-Blooded and juggernaut are armours you can wear (not much detail given on this). 3) The FAMAS returns, but is no longer a 3-round burst weapon. Instead it is full-auto. 4) There is no M4. Instead another new gun mentioned seems like it will take its place, the SIG Commando. 5) Other new weapons confirmed include the RPK, Skorpion and MAC11. 6) There is no commando perk. (:]) 7) The scavenger perk is included, but no longer replenishes equipment. 8) The One man army perk is also not included. 9) The highest killstreak reward (at this time in devlelopment) is 15. 10) There is no emergency airdrop, but there is a care package. 11) As confirmed before, killstreaks will not stack. For instance, if you get a 5 kills without dying and receive your killstreak reward, the kills you get with that killstreak reward will not count towards your next killsreak (e.g. 7 kill killsteak). You will have to get two more kills, in that instance, by other means to receive your next killstreak. 12) You can sprint to prone in the current build of the game. Basically this means you can dive straight on your belly after sprinting, instead of having to stop, crouch and than go prone. 13) The tactical knife is gone, while a new knife is being introduced: the ballistic knife. This is a knife that has a spring that can shoot a blade (in real life, not necessarily in the game). 14) The claymore is a piece of equipment, and you only get 1 per life. 15) Grenades are not considered equipment, and replenished by scavenger. 16) The M16 is in the game, and still a powerful weapon. (Or as Woody puts it, still the ****!) 17) The PSG1 sniper rifle is in the game. 18) UAV, airstrike and 3 types of helicopters are back as killstreaks. The Pave Low is confirmed as well, and has a feature unique to the game. 19) The SR-71 plane is also one of the killstreak rewards.
Yeah, that predator missile replacement looks kinda sketchy. RC car obviously is too. Sadly the M16 looks a little cheap, but it's probably just me over exaggerating.
I guess because MW2 was so awful, Black Ops kinda worries the serious gamers like myself.
Yeah, I used to play it a lot too, until last Monday, when I finally got Battlefield. Except whenever I played it for the last 2 days (in playing time), there was so much frustration surrounding the game that I finally decided it was time to put it down.
omg the wager maches look so good the one shot pistal one is so cool it think its a great idear and so well though tou same eith the money no nuke that better too also kill streaks don't count to other kill streak which is akso good as people don't get have to get somthing like the harriers then then lett the kill streaks do the work so much improvment i also like the new pearks
when i look at the killstreaks in MW2 then look at the ones ive seen so far in Ops, it looks like you controll almost all of them, the RC car for example. wager matches look awesome. i think sticks and stones is gonna be epic
Let's see, shall we. Claymores do the same thing, no? Easily visible until hidden, alert you of the enemy.
True, but the Claymore dosent let you see how many people are at the Bomb Plant Site and see if they are looking at you or not. Also if the Claymore goes off, you rush outside to see where the person went when they ran into the claymore but they might have run away or have planned an ambush to quickly knife you. The Camra Stick lets you see everything so you can just toss a frag, kill the guy then eat a bowl of Lucky Charms. If there is a perk to make yourself invisible to these thinks then it will be fine.
I've gotta say that Treyarch is doing EVERYTHING right that Infinity Ward isn't, which basically means they're doing everything right.
Hello,
We love Tac Insert. It does a few things for the game strategy. A well organized team of Tac Insert user can roll the competition in Demo. It's grand, really, and how it should be. Counter by organizing your own team of Tac Insert users and roll with Hacker.
It also solves a problem. A lot of you are super convinced you can make a better spawn system than we can. That's cool. So, here you go. Here is Tac Insert. Pick your own spawn point and stop yelling at me.
Trying to use Tac Insert but are getting Tac Insert spawned camped? Well, you probably deserve that but you can now cancel your own Tac Insert in the Killcam. That's new to Black Ops.
The main reason I am not as worried about Tac Insert as you? We can disable it. And, I just did for Free-For-All (hardcore and core) variants. It will still work in Private Matches in Free for All, but then you don't get XP in Private Matches so it can't be used for boosting.
The game has a reporting system. Report boosters and let's make examples of them. Once you lay the ban hammer on enough bad people word will get around that we don't take too kindly to this sort of thing.
Everything someone likes someone else is gonna hate. So if you dont like something in the game, someone else is gonna like it and will get pissed if its taken out.
I'm glad they're primaries now, and I hope they're underpowered. I hated the SPAS so much, and I never used anything cheap in MW2 except for the first two months.
