Call of Duty: Black Ops

Have Treyarch mentioned anything about the grenade spam of single player? Was really looking forward to this until today when I started playing WaW on veteran and found myslef constantly killed by grenades, a very frustrating experience.

I know what you mean.The way the AI have super aiming and can land a grenade right at your feet no matter where you or they are. It is annoying:mad:

See this has been my argument for the last two years on this forum. People will instantly dismiss a COD game made by Treyarch as it wasn't made by the gods from inifnity ward.

Yet both times Infinity banged out a good game and left it to rot.

Treyarch actually expand on their game and listen to the players. IW cared about catching boosters and 70 prestige cheats for about 2 weeks then gave up caring.

I also preferred the SP in WAW to the one on COD4 as a comparison because both had grenade spamming but WAW had only two points with infinite enemies.

MW2 wasn't much of a challenge once they took out the infinite enemies, certainly nothing like as hard as WAW.

I was hoping they would have a beta so I could make my mind up whether I will bother this time.

or as i call it virtual war sim 2.0

pull pin from explosive > die > explosive disapears

i think the problem with Iw was they new they could make another good game in a year and make more money, instead of expanding on what the yhave.

During the multiplayer unveiling event on September 1, a few of the new Call of Duty: Black Ops features discussed were the currency system and the brand new game mode Wager Match. As part of our series on Black Ops multiplayer, we dive deeper into these features here. Check back here in the coming days for more updates from the September 1 Multiplayer event. You can also get a full overview in the Inside Xbox coverage


COD Points

Let’s talk about COD Points, your Black Ops in-game currency. Let’s clear up the difference between unlocking and purchasing loadout options.

You still unlock items, abilities, and customization options through leveling up. You’re still gaining experience, but you’re also earning COD Points at the same time. Let’s use specific examples to see how this works. For perks, when you reach level 4, all perks become available for purchase. When you unlock Killstreaks at level 10, they all become available for purchase. And when you unlock great new features such as Custom Reticles, they become available for purchase for all guns. This lets you purchase what you want, when you want it. Just make sure you have the money.

Can’t wait to throw on an ACOG Sight on that new Commando assault rifle you just purchased? No interest in the Red Dot Sight? Skip right over it. No need to grind for kills. Save up your money and purchase the ACOG Sight instead. Can’t wait to demolish your enemies with the RC Car killstreak? Make it your first purchase after unlocking killstreaks.

This is just a sample of the options you can explore and purchase, but we’re not giving away all of our secrets just yet.


Wager Matches

First things first, if you haven’t already seen the Wager Match Trailer, check it out below.

With Wager Matches, it’s not just your life you’re fighting for anymore, but also your bank account. In each of the four Wager Match types (One in the Chamber, Sticks and Stones, The Gun Game, Sharpshooter), you put down money that you’ll be one of the top three players in the match. Succeed and your bank account reaps the benefits. Fail and you’re out whatever you put in.


One in the Chamber

Three lives. One bullet. One pistol. One knife. Take down an opponent and you get another bullet.

Rhythm is the king contender in this Wager Match. Anticipate enemy movements and expect side-to-side motions in an attempt to dodge your shot. When it comes down to knives, approach it like a boxing match. Goad your opponent into striking, dodge, and then go in for the kill. Smart counterattacks prevail over blind aggression, so get your timing down and you’ll be rolling in the dough.

How will you approach One in the Chamber? Is dueling your style, battling your opponent in a high-tension face-to-face skirmish? Or would you rather wait and watch for the perfect moment when some unlucky soldier’s back is facing you, going in for the kill and stocking up on ammo? Perhaps you’ll wait for a fight to erupt and then take down the winner when they least expect it, only to disappear again and wait for another chance.

Head on over to the Forums to discuss strategies. And be sure to check back soon as we shed more light on each of the new Wager Matches.

Well i wasnt intrested in this until i saw the Wager trailer and that mode just looks fun ^.^ Tempted to get it now just not sure on which consol =(
 
I imagine you only really need to worry about 'cod points' if you prestige. As I don't I won't need to worry about spending cash on stuff as I don't lose it all each time I level up.

I never thought of that to be honest. I wonder if any points you collect reset when you prestige?(in fact i'll ask on the callofduty forum)
*edit* You will lose any COD points when you prestige but they are thinking of maybe giving you some bonus points to start of with after prestige.

For £60 i'm sure you can take a 10min break to rest your eyes if you play so much that you need to buy these glasses.

Cheers for that, yet another reason not to bother with prestige again. With a game coming every year I don't see the point for me, I won't get enough game time in.

I will just be rich with Cod Points ;)

Did i not read somewhere there there are only going to be 5 levels of prestige? I know it might take just as long to max depending on how XP is handed out, but it'll make me more likely to prestige as i'll only lose my guns 5 times instead of 10
