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.
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.
Same weapon=/= same stats. The cod 4 m16 isn't the mw2 m16.
So basically you can't just use your use your Chopper Gunner to get a nuke?
Yup.
That means EVERYBODY will be drop shotting! Ugh... two GIANT thumbs down for Treyarch.
Have you seen the video? When the person does it, he puts his weapon on his back. Therefore, i'm assuming you can't shoot while doing it.
Yeah, but both guns were not fun getting killed by. The FAMAS was the M16 of MW2 though. I'm glad that Treyarch isn't going to have any burst fire guns. That makes me a happy panda
Just realized something awesome...that ENTIRE TRAILER was shot in the "theater mode"
In the end, there are 9 labeled segments. There are nine segments in the trailer. The segment names also correspond to the segments (the 'Launch' segment takes place with the rocket level, the guy at the end says 'we've take the lead', which is what the last segment is called.)
Also supporting my claim is that one of he dev's tweeted that we were " looking at the trailer the wrong way, and 'misinterpreting it'
So I figured something else out. Well, this one commentator I'm subbed to because he makes sick montages too, said in a commentary that at 1:01 there's a clan tag on the back of a your gun and I checked the video and it was true... All I've got to say is: <333333333333333333333333333333333 This means very, very customizable weapons.
Also Kirbzy (Sorry for the double post) I'd like to bring up that a lot of commentators don't really like those guns either (no I didn't get the idea from them). I've been watching OpTic Predator for a long time, since like November and he's said in a video that it's easier to get kills with the M16 than it is with the Intervention. Jeriicho and Muzzafuzza do too... That's all I can think of XD
But yeah, I'm done complaining. I've pretty much covered everything I hate about Modern Warfare 2. Even FFA's these days are pretty much GB matches and I'm done with the game. I just need to hope for the best in Black Ops and not get overexcited like I did with Modern Warfare 2.
You have the ability to do this in MW2, yet no one does it now do they?
Your missing the point. Because it's not a piece of equipment, people won't care if they waste grenades. Therefore, people won't really care if they waste em'.
Weapon damage and stats doesn't necessarily carry over from two different games with two different developers.
I know, I'm just saying because the burst is gone, it will be overpowered. I didn't say the stats would change.
Yeah, but both guns were not fun getting killed by. The FAMAS was the M16 of MW2 though. I'm glad that Treyarch isn't going to have any burst fire guns. That makes me a happy panda -- What is this like the 5th comment I've seen you ***** about the M16, Famas, and semi automatic guns in general? Calm your tits dude.
