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.
^Agreed. If they want to make the game fair and realistic, they would make snipers like CoD2 where there was no stopping power, since there were no perks, and they were still an OHK
Thats kinda useless, to me. How come that can't be the pro of Steady Aim?
Have you ever played CoD4 or WaW? There was a perk called Iron Lungs and that was the same thing as Scout is going to be.
In other news, It's my birthday! (I'm probably going to put this in every post I write today, so it won't be considered spam)
Way to be a troll. And I'm using that word in the right way, too. I apologize that you're some 4th grader who gets bullied at school everyday, but this thread is about Call of Duty: Black Ops, not a flaming thread.
OXM (I think) just came out with a video on xbox live that shows a whole bunch of new features on Black Ops.
These include: -Theater Mode, comes with a built in Clip Creator (Machinimia Studio) that uses a free roaming camera and allows you to save your multiplayer battles. The clips can be shared and explored and stuff like that. -Currency System -Contracts, time-limited challenges (Mercenaries, Operations and Specialist have been revealed) that get you either CP or experience. The harder they are, the more you get paid. -More customization, and things like putting your clan tag on your gun. -Combat Training, a new mode that helps train for multiplayer. Itâs populated with advanced AI bots called practice dummies and can be played solo or with friends.
We kinda knew that before Strength :P but as long as it was something relevant to the thread, it doesn't really matter what you say. I didn't know about the machinima studio think in the theater mode. That's gonna be a lot of fun, especially if quick-scoping is at least as good as it was in Call of Duty 4. I wouldn't need to go out and buy Sony Vegas to edit clips with my dazzle now!
I'm also excited for combat training. I'm good at quickscoping, but I wanna work on 360 quick scopes.
NO STOPPING POWER?! What is Treyarch thinking?! How will I snipe? *facepalm*
Sniper Rifles should be a 1-shot kill without stopping power anyway as long they are bolt action...........do you know anything about sniper rifles......? *Massive facepalm*
I did read from a source that they said Hardened and Prestige editions will include the ZOMBIE MAP PACKS so possible if you get them editions of the game you may get EXTRA Maps which suggest there may be zombies in the game.

Yes, with bolt action it's one shot kill. But I don't use bolt action, thus I need stopping power.

You know nothing about damage?
Take MW2 for example. All snipers had 70 base damage. The damage mulipliers varied them. For example, a headshot was worth 1.5x damage, etc. Both the barrett and Intervention had the same multipliers ; they were equal in terms of killing power.
