Black Ops 2

I just saw a preview of this.. Looks stupid.. I think COD is losing some steam.. They should make the campaigns longer.. I'm not much of a online player when it comes to these games.. People cheat way too much..

Hey any of you guys get this game yet? I like it more than the last and the league feature should be fun once it starts up in december. If anyone wants to hit me up and play let me know.

I seriously dont like the Treyarch, COD, games.



Infinity Ward >>>>>> Treyarch by INFINITY. World at War sucked. Black Ops 1 sucked. They just have a terrible handle on game dynamics and story progression. All of their COD additions have a very sci-fi feel to them.

IF Black Ops 2 gets enough good reviews, maybe Ill check it out. But right now, I have no interest.

I dont really play for the campaign mode i mostly just play online. I think Black Ops 2 has zombies so you might want to stay away lol.

never liked treyarch, they just take what infiniti does and crap out a similar title. Their maps are always too big, tanks and **** in the streets, no fan.

Im one of the few people I know who still buys games for the campaign. I have friends who have owned games and never once played through, just went straight to multiplayer from day 1.

Im a story nut, so campaigns are important to me.


Zombie wise, one of the few things I like about the Treyarch COD games, lol. Its unreal how it all started in that small room and has blown up to what it is now. Giant friggin zombie maps.

And OF COURSE, Treyarch ahd to ruin it. You notice how all the zombie maps are Sci-Fi? Have teleports and plasma machines and crap.

WW2 WAS NOT SCI FI!! Jeez.

My friend was scripter/designer on Black Ops and now works for Infinity, where he was scripter/designer for Modern Warfare. I sense he's ambivalent towards Black Ops 2, but he definitely left Treyarch for Infinity because he viewed them as the much better game company.

I dont like shooter campaigns at all personally, straight online with those titles.

You ever played COD4 (the first of the new COD brand)?

Borderline masterpiece. That mission ("All guiled up") where you are snipers slowly making your way across Chernobyl to assissinate a dude is one of the best desgined maps Ive ever seen. If you compare it to the actual Chernobyl, its damn near PERFECT. The landscape, the building. Everything is spot on.


Was it you that played Red Dead Redemption? Another example of a game with an epic Campaign.

*Not to mention campaign mode is where I learn and hone my skills for multiplayer mode. 1st multiplayer game I play I want to be comfortable with all the controls and ready to PWNZRSAURUSROFLCOPTORS. Havent said that in a while.

RDR was a campaign game that had online mode though and isnt a natural shooter its more of a sandbox game. I didnt play it online at all. I played the campaign of the very first modern warfare, it was cool I guess but online was a lot more fun. I can jump into any 3rd person first person pure shooter and kick ass, no single player honing needed. My main disadvantage is learning the maps and the longer you wait the more everyone else knows them. The controls and etc have been honed since SOCOM 1

Moving COD to a harder setting just means you die easier and doesnt add much to the game for me.

Coop is fun but for the most part when it comes to pure shooters all I care about is the online play.

I have it. I do not hate or love any of the maps, which is probably a good thing. There are some maps in all of the other COD's that I hate.

I really like how they did the zombies though. I like playing them.

.

I think thats our biggest difference.

It seems youre the type to buy a game at midnight and be one of the first to master it.

I wait for months to buy it so itll come down a few cents in price. lol. But then again, I am one of the noobs that guys like you pray on.



Not for long though. Im a BEAST on FPS's. Not that it matters much nowadays, but I was ranked top 100 in the world on COD4 back when it was widely played. K/D ratio of like 8, which is slammin. I dont even play Modern Warfare 2-3...etc.

I bought one of em at midnight one year because I could and I didnt weork the next day but back when I gamed alot, I would get it release week and go straight online. Everyone was always ahead of me because I only would play a max hour a day so no matter how early I got it everyone would know the maps better but the first week is all about learning maps and I typically suck until I know what direction im looking.

Once I know the map, 15+ every round.

I just find campaign boring and easy, guys in same spots, etc. I like the competition of playing vs real people. To each his own. I think I have played 2 hrs of shooters int he last year+

No way bro. Believe it or not, but aggressive play rules the day in FPS's.


It goes against logic. If everone else is hiding in their cubby holes, and im running around, youd think Id get blasted in the back right? Somehow no. I wind up just torching guys left and right.


Go on youtube and watch any one of the millions of Youtube vids of guys playing COD (or any FPS). Are they camping? No, they are constantly moving throughout the entire game and end with scores of 66-0.


So from one grand master of FPS's to a padawan, my 1 piece of advice is to get aggressive. Get into the enemies base ASAP and just start racking up kills. Never, Ever stop moving. Its both superfun, and once you get the hang of it, youll be better than 99% of the people you come across.

* Not to mention, constantly moving makes you learn every map like the back of your hand. I havent played COD4 in more than 2 years and I can perfectly detail every piece of every map.
