Call of Duty: Black Ops 2

[BullsFan_1]

Can't say my expectations are too high.

COD in general has just gotten stale. If they introduce something innovative, something fresh, maybe I'll be a little more excited. Fixing the melee system would be a good start. I know the one hit knife kill is a fundamental game mechanic for the COD series, but it's always been broken. I shouldn't bring a gun to a knife fight and lose every time. If they added a two hit kill to the front and one hit kill to the back, I think it would fix a lot of issues with the panic knives.

They also need to upgrade the game engine. If they don't upgrade from the first black ops, they'll be using an engine that dates back FOUR games. Hell, use the MW2 engine. Hit detection in MW2 was fucking perfect.

As much hate as MW2 got, it is still my favorite game in the series. I still have fun on that game to this day. Frustrating as all hell, but so entertaining.

Sort of got off-topic, but yeah. I was never really a big fan of Black Ops, but mainly due to the outdated game engine and dull graphics. It just wasn't as aesthetically pleasing as the infinity ward installments. Hopefully they spice up the color palettes a bit... Too much gray in Black Ops.

Tomorrow is the day.

And it's looking more and more like a modern/futuristic time setting instead of Cold War 1960's

 

[tbo41fan]

will zombies still be on the game?

 

[HighJump31]

Oh definitely. That's Treyarch's signature game mode. That and their Combat Training should/will be a part of BlOpsII

 

[tbo41fan]

combat training blows.....

Zombies is a-ma-zing

 

[HighJump31]

I like Combat Training because you don't have to deal with campers, jackasses, lag and can test all the weapons and equipment out and try and find the right fit for you.

The thing I posted on the first page said this about Combat Training in BlOpsII

Combat Training

Will be returning with vast improvements.
Difficulty is no longer based on how long the bots take to start shooting.
Bots now have an advance AI system
Similar to the behavior seen in the MW3 Spec Ops survival

 

[tbo41fan]

hmm interesting...

survival is definitely more fun than combat training

 

[HighJump31]

dafuq? future warfare it is, or so it seems

 

[BullsFan_1]

That... is interesting.

Gives me a whole new perspective on this game. Futuristic shit would definitely freshen things up quite a bit.

 

[HighJump31]

Well here it is. Consider me unimpressed. Visually, it looks like crap in my opinion.

looks fucking horrible

 

[DewsSox79]

I am in shock at how bad this game looks. i was excited until this trailer.

 

[HighJump31]

It's weird how much I miss WWII setting games now. 5 years ago people couldn't wait for Call of Duty to stop having WWII settings. Then I see stuff like this and the Modern Warfare titles and I miss it.

I really do not like this futuristic stuff though. But I'm going to need to see some actual gameplay videos before I completely write this game off.

 

[JTRaines92]

Game looks so shitty by looks of the trailer. It's so fucking Sci-Fi and it's supposed to be about older wars or whatever. I guess they're trying to make Halo for the PS3.

[zack54attack]

Meh, game looks shitty.

Agreed with the rest of your opinions.

Treyarch probably tried to change it up, and completely blew it.
