Some leaked info from a Magazine
Sounds good if true

- ‘Nightingale’ objective, was a bundle of firecrackers that created noise and gunfire sounds, trying to draw Viet-Cong to the location
- If in multiplayer it could create a flashing red dot on enemy radar (like a fake person)
- “You can create a tag and etch it onto your weapons, so they’re stamped as yours. The option is also there to alter your sights and clip on attachtments such as flame-throwers”
- Currency in multiplayer
- Success gives you cash
- Unlock weapons, uniforms, accessories for your player with the money
- New Team Tactical type game mode: Wager Match
- Wager Match choose a game mode randomly out of One in a Chamber, Sharpshooter, Sticks and Stones and Gun Game
- One in a Chamber: Start with one bullet and a knife, get another bullet with each kill
- Sharpshooter: Given a random weapon, will get a overpowered, or underpowered weapon
- Sticks and Stones – Have a crossbow, ballistic knife and Tomahawk, crossbow and ballistic knife kills give you points, Tomahawk kills don’t
- Gun Game: Start off with a poor weapon, every kill upgrades you weapon, first to reach the 20’th gun wins
- TDM is in, points such as headshots, and other bonuses are added to the team score
- Confirmed maps: Radiation (set in a power station), Summit (snowbound mountain base), Launch (missile base – the rocket will lift off dureing gameplay, and fry anyone underneath)

Basically a rip off of cs gun game

More info here too. Might be the same, might be different.





some revolutionary changes have been made to the Call of Duty multiplayer formula. The most notable addition is currency: earned by playing multiplayer matches, you can use it to buy weapons, uniforms and accessories for your player. Some more additions below.

Customization
Customization will also play a huge part in the new Call of Duty. You can create a tag and etch it onto your weapons, so theyre stamped as yours. The option is also there to alter your sights and clip on attachtments such as flame-throwers. These attachments, sights and tags can be bought with in-game cash and will help to make your character unique.

Wager Match
Another new addition is a Team Tactical gametype called Wager Match. When you choose to play Wager Match, you'll be randomly placed in one of four modes: One in the Chamber, which sees players given one bullet to kill other players: miss, and they're forced to use the knife, Sharpshooter, which sees players given a random weapon, Sticks and Stones, which involves the crossbow, ballistic knife and Tomahawk, and Gun Game (formerly a mod for Call of Duty 4), which sees players vying to get kills with 20 different weapons: knife someone, and they move down a level.

"You gamble with your own currency, and the fear of loss is so incredibly great that it intensifies the action."

Team Deathmatch, the popular and ever-present gametype which pits teams of 6 against each other, will return in Black Ops. However, points for headshots and other bonuses will apparently add to the team score, encouraging players to be as accurate as possible.

Maps!
Three maps were confirmed in the magazine extract: Launch and Summit have already been seen in the Multiplayer Teaser Trailer, but Radiation, set in a power station, is brand new. It was also confirmed that the rocket seen on the map Launch will indeed lift off during gameplay and 'fry anyone underneath it'.

I couldnt care less about any of this gimmicky rubbish

Just tell me theres no juggernoob , cammando , danger close or martyrdom and I'm getting it

not for another hour , I'd say 3:30 before we see anything

Nuri Sahin

I'm kicking back, laughing at all the kids going mental in the chat room.

So.. am I wrong in saying this crap *starts at 3am our time*?

Jev/N

Apparently so, don't think we factored in daylight savings hours or whatever... its a 9 hour difference rather than 8, during the summer at least, I think?

You guys are in the wrong channel, its just after starting.
