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)

Current info:

(From http://callofduty.com/board/viewtopic.php?f=73&t=242924&sid=07dcfa6c2e3318f87fb25c9011a609ca)


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.

It's the stereotypical 12 year old MW2 player. I say stereotypical because:
1. I'm 13.
2. It's not fair to others around that age.
3. I've met many adults who are even worse.

Players do:
1. Moan about others
2. Noob-tube (not terrible but it causes annoyance for others and constant moaning).
3. G18 Akimbo (same as 2.)
4. W/e else ppl consider OP
5. Commando (I find this unnecessary , but don't openly complain about it)

Anyway, half of those will be removed, whilst there may be substitutes people will complain about.
Can't please everyone, amirite?

there's 12 year old nut jobs playing MW2, a very bad game

Well, you see, the fact that the 12 year olds play it ruin the game. It actually has great game mechanics, but then again who really cares as long as the game is fun to play?
1. I'm 13.

Seriously?! Mind=blown. You seem to be really intelligent for a 13 year old.

Back to BO, I watched a video of somebody talking about the Beta because his friend had it, and he said that the AR's are really good... And the hit detection is WaW like, and the snipers are actually difficult to use.

Sorry, the way I put my sentence was wrong.
But there are some design factors which could've been done better. I don't feel that Commando had to be in there anyway, it was basically a shotgun that locked on. :/

Also - why did they put in Last Stand? The point of it is bad, the way to make it useful (giving them a second of immunity) is terrible, and the fact everyone hated it in CoD4 (possibly WaW) is disgusting!
:/

*shrug* I don't know, it probably shows more because of my maturity (and arrogance as shown right here ), others probably are this smart but just aren't mature enough to show it. Or lack english skills to say it properly.

Which reminds me, you should listen to Elitemagical

If this is true then we can throw those design flaws out the window!

Just so you know, WaW hit detection sucked.
Also - why did they put in Last Stand?

I know, Last Stand is the most depressing perk of all time. It's much higher than Juggernaut and Commando on the list of "worst perks in Call of Duty history" imo. And here's why.

I was playing regular Domination on Terminal one day, when I came out of the Airplane and coming into that room with the desk to the right, I turn left, where somebody is shooting at me. I had my handy dandy sniper with me, so I quickscoped him, and got a collateral. I looked down, and right behind those two dead bodies was a person in last stand. My teammate killed him, and on my screen it read "+10" This demon perk denied me a triple. And now it's going to be worse, because with Last Stand/Second Chance Pro, anybody can revive a person in Second Chance.

Same here.
Nice proof! :P

I hate Last Stand >
Do you play on PC? If so, what's your Steam ?
Juggernaught and Stopping Power are equally bad to be honest. Stopping Power is a waste of a perk - lets be honest now.

I do not play on PC :/ I play on PS3.

Yes. It helps on snipers though.

No, what I mean is that there's no need for it to be there. Snipers should be 1-shot 1-kill (as they seem to be in Black Ops), and thats it. This will be great by comparison to MW2 and Black Ops tho, as we have an extra perk <3

I do not play on PC :/ I play on PS3.

Dang, nevermind.

No, he's saying that the people that ruin the game should not play. Suggesting that no one should play is a stupid proposition.

The game is generally fun, that's its façade to hide disastrous multiplayer mechanics. I do not mean to sound insulting but you really have to experience the original Call of Duties to understand how weak Modern Warfare 2 is.

Which reminds me, you should listen to Elitemagical


Sycophancy!

Yes. It helps on snipers though.


Only if the sniper has low damage stats by default. From what I've seen of Black Ops so far, the consequential damage bonus acquired from Stopping Power will have no noticeable effects on the sniper, it will be one shot kills regardless of perks.
