Mr. Manager

Looks amazing!

Thor

My god that games looks incredible!!! Wasnt sure if they had much to offer over mw2 but good god that looks great!!

I feel excited over this game for the first time ever.

"Ballistic Knife" at 0:32..the new commando:rolleyes:

krudler

Its gonna be cool being in on the ground floor for the multiplayer for once, didnt get into multi MW2 until Feb this year. looks great though, the same but different, very cool.

krudler

Ha that little rc car thing looks mental, please let this be more balanced than MW2 pleeeeeaseeeee!

2smiggy

yes a more balanced version of mw2 would do me fine. minus some of the kill streaks , commando, tact insertion , one man army and akimbo shot guns.

looks like mw2 really. just hope they have been working hard on maps for the last few years. a spruced up castle map would be nice

Hopefully its like a throwing knife thats hard to aim, looks like the titles and emblems have been toned down a bit, more simplified versions from what son there, that could all change though, roll on November 9th! I'm off work that week too, yahoo!:D

Although it's impossible to tell from such a short clip, it does have me worried that it seems as frantic as MW2. I like MW2, but i'm playing a lot of WAW at the moment and find the slower place a bit more appealing. Hate that they've included the OTT kill points structure of MW2.

The Floyd p

That looked kick ass

Can't wait

That doesnt really bother me, its wierd going back playing MW1 and getting +20 instead of +100 per kill.

Really cant wait for this now. Theater mode is finally in CoD! Happy days!

Bout bloody time, wonder how easy it'll be to upload videos to the net, if it now means we can do it without buying capture cards, win

Blazer

looks completely like MW2 to me bar a few kill streaks..also noticed a bit of lag in the video and they were playing the xbox 360 version...hope it's this and not as a result of the p2p network
Saying that I'd still get it anyway..

I'm the same. I'm going to try and keep a level head here, cause I and presume many got their hopes up from the all the MW2 trailers and sneak peeks.

From the clip, the camera has me very worried. Just imagine, a camera set up in the enterance way of a building. In the next room or upstairs, there lies the camper waiting for you with baited breath with shotgun or whatever

RC Car!? I really do not know what to make of that. Taken me by surprise seeing that. So we'll have a load of RC's running around considering it's only 3(presuming there's no hardline perk) most people will get them fairly regularly.

Ballistic knife, while I know and understand what it does. Just seems to be commando lite looking at the lunge for the 2nd kill.

The others bits looked decent.

And i just bought a HD PVR. Fail

I hope the stingy cnuts don't include it as an "extra" with the game. I'll still get it, but hopefully it won't turn into a money spinning scheme like these two map packs were.

They added the one halo had over cod anyway with the gameplay recording, The ps3 version should be able to upload directly to youtube with its video uploader The camera turret thing at the start looks lame aswell as the rc car. At one point there is a guy with a huge backpack similar to OMA which worries me Crossbow looks pretty fun. 1 thing is guranteed, i wont be hyped 1 bit for it until i play the finished product this time.

Kev_ps3

Looks a complete clone of mw2:rolleyes: Titles/emblems look terrible aswell compared to mw2.

+1 The lack of recoil on the guns is annoying, looks like the famas is full auto this time.

2smiggy

well if it is a clone, minus some of the bad points from mw2, it is no bad thing. i enjoyed world at war, but alot of people disliked it because it was so different from mw1.

maybe they are just playing it safe and sticking with a winning formula.

SRFC90

The maps look very 'Halo-esque', which I do not like.

It's not so much the actual points rather the way it flashes up and tells what what each of the points is for like a bloody pinball machine. Just give me a subtle +10 or +100 and not something that looks like I won at the slots in Vegas.

Had a look around for some more intel,. Your clan tag is now etched into your gun. Awesomeness .




Some analysis here http://www.wethegamerz.com/forum/content.php?503-Call-of-Duty-Black-Ops-Multiplayer-Teaser-Trailer&nocache=1

I love that. It's the small touches like that that I'm looking forward to most. I'm trying not to read too much info about the game, and just find out while I play.




Shíííít. That's not guna happen!

will we see a beta ?

Prob not, maybe a single player level demo,this will sell about a billion copies regardless of whether people get to play it early or not, wonder will they do some uber edition like the night goggles? I say make a version with a remote control bomb thingy that really drives around

I wouldnt say no that fast, Remember the last treyarch game had a beta, so its possible this one will aswell.

Think of the amount of things that would have been spotted early on in an mw2 beta(if they had one) My guess treyarch wont make the same mistake.

Kylo Ren

What I got from the trailer...

1. Ballistic knife could be fun but could get old very fast. At least you have to hold it without a gun.

2. Did anybody see the guy doing a dive? WTF was that :P.

3. For anybody saying that the RC car looks "cool, fun," etc I guarantee you within a week of playing you will be going ballistic everytime you get snuck up behind by one!

4. The sniper was a bolt action ( Thank Fvck! MW2 really screwed us snipers over IMO) although it had a lot of recoil, similar to the r700 in COD4, but whatever.

5. The ability to record is a welcome part of the game.

6. Horizontal predator missile? If so it will take more skill to manoeuvre around buildings etc. which is needed as the predator missile was to easy and pissed everyone off when they got killed by one 15 times in 1 match!

Anyway i'm kind of skeptical of this game but I will wait for more news and coverage to come out.

Mr. Manager

....got killed by one 15 times in 1 match!

Coldblooded??

Id be more worried about the camera spike thingy . Seems way too camper friendly. Other than that the game looks epic.

forgot about that hmm not to keen on that either but it seems to only show a tiny angle so would have to be placed well, and its easily spotted to, loving the look of recording your gameplay :eek:
