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.
Of course, but for the majority of people I feel they want a greater incentive to do it, one new class and a few titles and emblems isn't enough - especially when you start over. If they unlocked completely new features it would be great, however I don't want it to be actual gameplay and only appearance settings so people whom don't want to prestige simply won't have to. But they will look lame
And it'll be great if you buy camo's lol. I don't like the ranking of camos, becuase I prefer woodland over fall, but <3 blue / red tiger.
I bet you could probably save up all your money and then just buy everything in any prestige you want...
Treyarch hates QS and NS theme sniping styles, correct?
Treyarch "reached out" to QSers back in July. They told "the best quick-scoper in Los Angeles" to come to the studio and see how easy it was to do in Black Ops. I also saw some Black Ops gameplay and the scope zoomed in kinda fast IMO.
Im a fuckin MLG at MW2, but its dull now and Black Ops will be very similar. For that reason Im going to buy Medal of Honor instead. MoH will be a much better (and underated) game
I bet you could probably save up all your money and then just buy everything in any prestige you want...
They will probably reset money for exactly that reason. Not to mention u need to rank up to a specific level before u can buy whatever u wish to buy. Good and bad honestly, it's quite annoying and it would b e gr8 if u could choose which goes into which rank. So instead of the M4A1 being unlocked at rank 4, the ACR will instead, and the 2 weapons will switch around. Who else thinks thats cool? Btw only Assault Rifles can swap with Assault Rifles, Snipers with Snipers, etc. Secondaries will be more difficult, tho I have heard shotguns are now primaries again which is awful in my opinion.
And I also hope QS and NS aren't too good otherwise there will be a thing for it online. Maybe make a priv. match that allows more QS style?
Sorry for dp, but when I meant "last balanced game" I meant most balanced, because there were some weapons in CoD4 that were overpowered, like the MP5 and M16 and AK-74u.
But apparently in Black Ops, every weapon in its class will do the same exact amount of damage per bullet. That's probably the best idea ever.
uhhhh ohhh a new call of duty, I hope it isnt as bad as mw2, and doesnt get as boring and old as quick as mw2. From what ive seen in the trailers so far , seems like a decent enjoyable game
