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.
Black Ops looks good, I like the Vietnam theme and especially that Treyarch is making it.
No one should compare this to MW2, because Activision fired the majority of the IW developers. Even then, Treyarch is completely different, they know how to make decent multiplayer and no matter what they do there's going to be some problems. We just have to live with them and pray the community doesn't completely abuse them (which I'm sure they will, lol)
As for the M16, they should make it like it should be, not as powerful and able to be fired faster than "Burst-pause..burst-pause.."
-Guns have recoil. YAYZ - 3 killstreak: exploding rc car (drivable, mini) - 4 killstreak: care package - 5 killstreak: pred missle thing -Crossbow has attachments. seen in vid as "explosive tip" -semtex type thing confirmed -Some sort of bolt action sniper-probably the quickscoper's choice? -titles/emblems thing confirmed -interactive environment? A missile shot of on the mp level "launch" -hud is very similar to before -bling perk confirmed? first kill has silencer&red dot -"sticky cameras" are in game. They are basically a placeable camera on a tripod, which films an area and relays feedback to the user. good for knowing if someone is sneaking up on you. -mp5k in game (w/ suppressor) -ballistic knife in game -"bonus points" similar to MW2 (ex: payback, first blood, etc.)
and.........dun dun dun Ability to record gameplay clips, screen shot them/record them, and presumable, send them to friends? I'm guessing it's like halo 3's system. Can be put in third person, first person, "free mode". Fast forward and slow mo. -another trailer on september 1st
-red dot at :10 is a smiley face XD -:37 WTF? He Dives from explosion? - ranks/symbols for ranks have been approx. put down by ten. For ex, level 29 now has the 2 silver bars instead of that green diamond thing. Possibility of lower level cap? -Airstrike/napalm? as killstreak -@ 1:06 Expanding circle on radar...wtf -weapon known as the "ython snubnose colt" in game -sniper is presumably the L96 -
I personally think it's overpowered, Brbgn, because it has a faster fire rate than all of the other assault rifles and kills in one burst. It is very easy to use..
Everyone is whining about the M16 being in the game, and being burst fire. But doesn't anyone realize that in the vietnam era we were using M16's that were fully automatic?

The Colt Python is a .44 Magnum revolver, looks like that has returned.

Both the M16 and the FAMAS in this game are full-auto.

Thats pretty cool. I can't wait.
The FAMAS returns, but is no longer a 3-round burst weapon. Instead it is full-auto.
That sounds like a bad idea. There are already to many people using it. But now the 3 round burst is gone. Now it's gonna be WAAAAY overpowered and EVERYBOOOODY will be using it. Thumbs down for Treyarch.
There is no M4. Instead another new gun mentioned seems like it will take its place, the SIG Commando.
I'm glad the M4 is gone. I want new weapons.
Other new weapons confirmed include the RPK, Skorpion and MAC11.
*jizzes* I can't wait!
There is no commando perk. (:])
YESS! I'm so sick and tired of getting killed by commando!
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).

Wait a minute... I'm confused. So basically you can't just use your use your Chopper Gunner to get a nuke?
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
That f*cking sucks. That means EVERYBODY will be drop shotting! Ugh... two GIANT thumbs down for Treyarch. [/quote]
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).
Lmao. So basically this is replacing commando? *sigh* we will just have to see how it turns out.
Grenades are not considered equipment, and replenished by scavenger.
I don't know how I feel about that. This means that if you have scavenger you can simply just waste grenades, scavenge, repeat.
That sounds like a bad idea. There are already to many people using it. But now the 3 round burst is gone. Now it's gonna be WAAAAY overpowered and EVERYBOOOODY will be using it. Thumbs down for Treyarch.
I think they would lower the power of it. If not, I think the fact that it is no longer three round burst will make it less noobish, because you can't fire off three rounds instantly.
i didnt like the idea of blackops until i saw the multiplayer trailer it looks awesome!!! i think you should be able to post your kills on youtube, that would same some time and would also help those kills that you dont catch with your recorder. like yesterday i was on mw2 and i got the funniest crate drop winning kill! lol, it was hilarious this guy tried to steal my care package, little did he know i also had a emergency airdrop on the way. ill just let you picture what happened
