    I think the with the majority trends we have in online gaming, proper team work is next to impossible.

    Gone are the days of a good PC RTS on a dial up connection.

    anyone up for some zombies on blops send me a message , need 2 more people for a full team.

    We are going to be mainly going for achievments on the map packs ( Call of the dead , Shangri-La , etc... ) but we will still go back to the original maps from WAW aswell.

    Preferably have it organised over the weekend but should be able to get a few week days in for august aswell.

    I only have zombies on xbox ( sorry ps3 guys ) Need someone who can communicate well and do all the work :D

    anyway , send me a message if your interested.
    I'd be up for some cheevo hunting, barely played shangri la and moon though. I'll be on tonight anyway definitely, Nially88

    Have to say I'm definitely getting excited for BLOPS 2. BLOPS was the first COD I played religiously online and though I've actually got the hang of and kinda like MW3,sorry!,Treyarch have just always appealed to me more. Probably because they've been sat in IW's shadow and felt a need to prove a point, something that I'd imagine stems right back from IW whinging about Treyarch being allowed the COD3 title way back when.

    Either way BLOPS taught us one thing, that is Treyarch at least try to fix there games after release unlike IW who just toss them aside

    Should we bother to hope for any huge improvements to the MP?

    Is everyone going to ditch MW3 when this comes out then?

    I'd be amazed if anyone looked back at mw3 fondly ,unless the next game is a complete **** up. Numbers playing this dropped fairly quickly so reckon hardly anyone will be playing mw3 come november.

    Initially yeah. Usually when a new CoD game come out, the reactions go as follows:

    Initally: "ZOMG this is duh best game evar!"

    Two months in: "dis game sux [insert previous CoD title here] was way better!" :pac:

    ....I mean I dumped mw3 a few months back

    They couldnt make it any worse than mw3, infact any idiot can make a very good cod but instead we're stuck with morons that couldnt make a good game to save their lives

    Late tonight i'd say. 3 or 4AM Irish time maybe.

    Should be way earlier than that, they said it would be morning pacific time so 8pm here at the latest

    Hooray for dolphin dives!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,721 ✭✭✭Kells...


    Killstreaks look ****.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,673 ✭✭✭✭senordingdong


    Unfortunately that looks kinda good.


  • Posts: 12,836 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    No way of judging from that, only thing I can say is please let there be a competitive playlist because those killstreaks look retarded.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,673 ✭✭✭✭senordingdong


    Well, trailers do have a habit of being deceptive.

    I'd like to see some sort of reverse playlist whereby you start with all the unlocks, and as you progress you lose more and more of them until then end where you are left with the barebones.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,975 ✭✭✭iMuse


    Will see plenty more riot shields now that you can stick them into the ground. The wall hack killstreak/ equipment is an obvious problem though, the gun sounds are horrible again like blops.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,692 ✭✭✭GEasy


    Oh god. Looks like a healthy amount of BS will be back in the game.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 679 ✭✭✭Shifty Shellshock


    Nice big colourful maps. Already makes me feel at ease

    I was looking at one of the sniper rifles on CoD wiki, it sounds like something out of Team Fortress 2: "As an added feature to take advantage of the scope, the shots can be charged, making the bullets pass through any material between the victim and the shooter. However, they consume multiple ammo per charge (the maximum being five)."


    I love TF2, but that seems odd for a CoD game.

    Well it did seem a lot more arcadey...

    That Guardian thing is gonna be spammed to bits...

    Best thing about it is that you have to equip your knife before using it, R.I.P panic knifing :)

    If you look at the bottom right of the trailer at 1.18 it says "combat knife" so I assume you have to equip it like a secondary.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,804 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    Mg that's looks awful. Killstreaks, riot shield in ground, running knifing idiots, to similar to mw2/3. Horrible horrible

    Who was commentating at the end? I recognise the voice, but not sure who.

    Looks decent, a lot more arcadey, it looks like it's a montage that would be done by any of the big montage makers on youtube....I'll buy it, but not Elite.
