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.
There's a great website that follows everything that has been announced and keeps it all in one place. it's amazingly useful and every time I look at it there's something new to be excited about. Me and my mate used to use their website for Modern Warfare 2 this time last year. Thank god they made one for Black Ops
I sound like I'm paid to promote it or something, lmao. I'm really not; it's just useful as hell.
i heard the shotguns are now underpowered and have been changed to primarys'
THANK GOD! I'm so tired of getting sniped by a Spas, or getting drop shotted by a AA12.
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.
Only problem is I go negative :L but I don't really care because I don't play very smart and I don't even care if I go negative if I have fun with the game.
Who cares if PS3 or Xbox is better than one another, they're both great systems, and video games are supposed to be for fun. And the game is going to be on both systems. And I have a PS3, and we Sony fans are supposed to be really, really into the argument, but I honestly don't care.
PS3 is better and it has been proven actually on IGN.com
Well if you want to get technical and stuff then yeah, PS3 is better built than Xbox, but I wouldn't really mind if I got an Xbox instead of a PS3 in 2008.
Very very true and PS3 is better and it has been proven actually on IGN.com
om nom nom I eat whatever a site throws at me instead of developing an opinion.
If you actually had awareness, you would realize that they only compared the systems in terms of specs (which we all know the ps3 would win). What about actual stuff that gamers really care about? Like game library, online play, dev support, etc.
