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.
This trailer was found on gknova6. It is a website run by treyarch, and the die-hard fans go there. The site is full of secrets, hints, etc. Most any news that comes out of there is fact; after all, it's run by treyarch. The site is supposed to be cryptic; hence, the lack of actual full game footage. But the full zombie reveal is on Halloween I presume, much like it was last year.
The game won't be bad because Treyarch is making it. And there is no stopping power (i believe). This makes it sound like the best FPS to ever be made.
-Thermal scopes -21 different Facepaints -16 gun camos (Tiger looks AMAZING) -40 red dot types -From what I can tell your match experience divided by 10 equals the money you earned that match. -GOLD CAMO -40+ Weapons -
Those red dots are VERY attractive and I plan on using as many as possible.
I suggested this to a friend and I believe I suggested it earlier in this forum. I would like to be able to buy class slots. As well as having a higher maximum - I am talking about as much as you can afford, realistically. I would just really like having different variants of classes because I hate progressing throughout prestiging for only a single class (and not every prestige either). It would be great if I could simply get 10 of the same class except with a different camo and insignia (aka decals and markings on weapon), probably a different sight as well, for the 'feel' of it. There are multiple of the same sight with maybe tiny little changes or different colors. An Arctic camo with an icy blue skull sight. Or an urban camo with red camo and crosshair red filtering. With of course a red devil sign.
this is awesome, i will be my own person, not just some who looks exactly same as everyone else, me. this is what the cod series needed. i have to say, after being disapointed with the last 2 cods, i have the gut feeling i had with cod4. this game wont change fps shooters, but what it will do is raise the bar.

Yes. It does raise the bars If they are going to do anything as significant as personalization like this one. I hope they are able to make destructible ground - wouldn't it be amazing that, even videos in theater mode are different from a quick glimpse of it? Smoking roof tops on fire because of the Valkyrie missile hitting it! I would love it for that to happen. However there are downsides. Small Maps will make a quick removal of cover. Campers will possibly moan. Kids will moan.
The only problem with the former CoD's is, as stated before. The players. Of the suggestion I made 2/3 of the problems are people related. Even then, it may not be that bad if they had say - a destruction 2.0 mechanic.
And YES! I usually pick a sniper, cold blood marathon and ninja and hide in grass near a bomb site. If they run past me I knife and if they plant I ninja defuse, now I can have some effective and reliable self defense incase something goes wrong. Yay!
Oh, but I won't use marathon as it now becomes CoD4 Extreme Conditioning - longer sprint, but not unlimited. But still with the Marathon name Contradicts itself
Nevermind. I hope it is as good as people say. Then again they are usually the problem! lol
KS Rewards won't benefit your next KS either, so if u get 7 killstreak, call in a heli and it gets 2 kills, u won't get a pavelow. Best of all, in my opinion - they are adding a new turret that can destroy enemy aircraft (not all of them). This is very effective. Nearly as good - removal of nukes, it took out the teamwork factor in many cases and will also stop people using it as a currency of skill. In some cases.
There is alot more info. And this is poorly set out in comparison. Here is a forum post (different forums) stating the known facts that not even I knew all of them:

Oh, and the hacking problem will be gone if its true that Punkbuster is returning in Black Ops
