I'm looking forward to it. I like that they've changed the class system to a points based one instead so for example, if you don't want a secondary weapon, you can use the points saved on something else.

I agree that COD4 was the last great COD game, with WAW being ok (bringing WW2 to the upgraded engine).
This looks like it'll be fun for the fans who buy COD every year nomatter what, but for me, more of the same that I've lost interest in. If I want to play COD MP, I'll start up COD4...or Black Ops 1.
And DG, any actual reliable sources on the next one being a new engine or is that just wishful thinking?

Have any of you people whining about how "bad" this looks and how it's a "map pack" and "rehash" actually bothered your arses to learn about all the new stuff Treyarch is adding in??
- completely new create a class system gives a lot more flexibility and options
- killstreaks replaced with scorestreaks
- new multi-team team deathmatch (as in, 4v4v4v4 etc)
- improved engine (lighting looks awesome)
- ghost perk only hides you from UAV when moving
- live streaming and game casting built into the game (anyone can do it)
- no perks which affect the performance of guns (steady aim etc). This means weapons can be inherently more varied rather than having to be similar to prevent imbalance. Result: greater variety between weapons
- panic knifing has been hugely nerfed (there is no lunge at all). However if you run out of ammo, you pull out a superior knife which will be used for knife only classes.
- dedicated PC dev team have put in a lot of extra stuff for PC players: ranked dedicated servers, lean, lobby chat, DX11 support, improved textures, performance optimisation. Looks like they want to avoid the debacle of MW3 and Blops 1.
That's just off the top of my head. The game looks great. I don't know what people expect from CoD - there is more new content in Black Ops (from the looks of it) than any CoD game since CoD4, as well as most of the halo games etc.
The engine looks a lot better due to the lighting improvements and more vibrant colours. I don't know what people expect them to do since they are still using the ancient current gen of consoles, and they want to run at 60fps. Within those limitations it's pretty much impossible to make a game look much better than the current CoDs.

honestly, i can understand why some people don't like CoD, but the vast majority of people who say "cod sucks lol, all the same, just map-pack lolol" are just bandwagoning idiots who've decided "i don't like CoD" and that's it - they'll never listen or bother reassessing their opinion ever again. For these people every CoD game will be terrible, just because it's got CoD written on the box, regardless of the content of the game itself.
People like this are the truly mindless ones, not the people who buy the game because they enjoy it (though I admit there are lots of idiots who like the game too, obviously).

Possibly the last fps in 2012 to do this?
Worlds apart...ignoring the fact that they ruin the game in the first place.
New game-mode...woahhhhh
and still looks like game from 2007
Can hardly contain my excitement
doesn't improve the game
About time, but perks should be removed altogether.
...seriously
HOLY **** dedicated servers??!! LEAN??????????? LOBBY ****ING CHAT?!?! MUST BUY GAME OF 2012 FO SHO.
The game still looks dire visually compared to anything else out this year and if they can't get it looking good on their ancient engine, how about building a new one? oh yeh, because it eats into the profits of their cash cow.

Arma 2, DCS World, world of tanks, a bit of minecraft.
I used to love games like soldier of fortune, but I grew up and now find cod/bf very linear and boring.
Wihtout mods those two games suck hard.
I loved Cod 4 & WAW but since then I just can't get excited about these games anymore, the list of new features does make it seem like they are trying to get things back on track but I'm still not interested, I'm not just jumping on the bandwagon I really want a good competitive shooter to play when I need a break from ARMA, but I know if I got this I'd find it as frustrating as the last one I bought, I think Counter Strike GO maybe the way forward for me but even that I'm not sure, we are really in need of an innovative shooter not tired rehashes of old games.
