Call of Duty: Black Ops Reveal Trailer

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops Reveal Trailer

You do realize Activision is going to be pulling the strings the entire time anyway, right? I really doubt Treyarch is going to have any more say in the matter than IW did. The only reason it might have dedi's is because Activision knows it can't pull that same crap with a Treyarch developed game.

I don't mind Treyarch personally, but they know already it won't sell anywhere near what MW and MW2 did so they can't get away with as much BS.

I would think that IW was a bigger company than Treyarch so if they can pull that crap with IW then I wouldn't see why they couldn't do the same to Treyarch.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops Reveal Trailer

This is what I think Black Ops will be. It will be first based in Vietnam (as seen in the trailer) but something happens, and the main character "died" but is possibly brought back to fight VK again but in Modern times hince the AUG. So i think Black Ops is Vietnam War, main character "dies" or is brought back to fight Vietnam again in a modern era. This is just what i think but if this will be like World at War with Co-Op and Dedi servers I will be buying this even if its a $59.99 price to it, Vietnam war games with Co-Op is probably the best game to buy.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops Reveal Trailer

This is my assumption...

Single player will be based on you playing as the person's flashbacks during the Vietnam time. (The actual person you portray is in the future though (Maybe 1980's?), you are just participating in what they are making him remember).

Then, I heard it goes into like the Cold War era as the character in real time. (No flashbacks)

I suspect Multiplayer will be based solely around Vietnam time.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops Reveal Trailer

So no more Call of Duty 7; combined with Pre-WW2, Vietnam and Cold War???? Now it's just a special forces game? wth? Oh well, they said their having zombies back in there (something like it anyway).

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops Reveal Trailer

the game will not be flashbacks as far as I think i believe that the part in the teaser where the character says

''The pain is difficult isn't it?" and "When he regains consciousness double the voltage"...

I think that you'll be playing as the guy who you see looking around the room being given shock therapy or being tortured

then he flat lines and the Mystery person says

"We need to bring him back"

this whole part most likely will be a level ( the parts from the war may be just thrown in there as fill in to give the illusion that it's a flashback)

I highly doubt this game will be one whole big flashback

Wow news around here is pretty slow.

got these from a friend check em out!:

First impressions: 'Call of Duty: Black Ops'

Call of Duty has always been about the soldiers in the trenches, so it's interesting that the level of Call of Duty: Black Ops showcased by Activision and studio Treyarch kicks off with an operative leading colleagues from up above.

Hovering above from inside an SR-71 Blackbird, players will send orders guiding a group of four soldiers past a convoy of Russians in the Ural Mountains. They simply point to areas on the screen and hit a button to lead the squad, so don't expect a complexity of, say, a Ghost Recon. But, similar to the view above an AC-130 gunship in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, the SR-71 scenario offered a fascinating perspective of the battlefield.

Of course, this is still a Call of Duty title, and once that brief command-based sequence concluded, the story shifts back to the soldier on the ground, as he and his three colleagues attempt to infiltrate a Russian facility.

The name of the level, "WMD," is set in 1968, during the height of the Cold War. The players' character is part of a larger endeavor to stop the spread of Communism. As the foursome moves through the facility, they come to a relay station they must take out. One by one, players will pick off unsuspecting foes with a scoped crossbow. Similar to previous Call of Duty titles, players will click to hold their breath and fire away.

This is when we check out one of the franchise's new features: alternate ammo that can be changed on the fly. As the group gets closer, they find an area with at least a dozen enemy soldiers, two of which sit by a truck. The lead character switches from a standard arrow tip on his crossbow to an explosive tip. Once fired, a beacon flashes for a couple seconds and boom goes the enemy. The lead character would eventually switch to an AUG assault rifle that could house attachments, although none were available during this level.

The firefight that ensues is textbook Call of Duty. Chaos dominates as players must navigate streams of bullets to reach their destination. Black Ops seems to follow the footsteps of the Modern Warfare franchise in attempting to deliver a more cinematic presentation, with the team ending the "WMD" level diving off a large cliff.

Overall, the level seemed to deliver the intensity and explosiveness of previous Call of Duty titles, and the SR-71 section left me wondering what other surprises Treyarch might have in store for Black Ops.

AND!:

Four-player co-op is confirmed.

You'll play at least two characters in multiple international conflicts.

American and Russian black operatives have been consulted. Given the above points, we reckon that means you might play on both sides of the conflict

Exact setting dates haven't been revealed, but the game will play out over a long period of history.

As black ops teams were privy to superior intelligence and had free access to any equipmenent they wanted, weapons and ammo will be more varied this time around. A military crossbow has been confirmed so far, but it's not just for sniping. CoD:BO (unfortunately aromatic acronym) allows on-the-fly ammo changes for some of its
weapons, so the bow can also be fitted out with exploding arrows.

There's also an AUG assault rifle that will take multiple attachments.

The SR-71 Blackbird is the new AC-130. During one level, the recon plane is used to observe terrain from above, with the player directing the squad below with a pointer in order to help them avoid enemy Russian convoys. Immediately after this, you'll take control of the squad on the ground.

Treyarch head Mark Lamia has said that the game is 'epic in scope', being focused around a story that 'has meaning and character and will be multi-threaded'. Perhaps more of an indication that Treyarch will be giving the Cold War an ambiguous, mutli-sided treatment?

CoD: BO is using the same full-actor motion-capture technology as Avatar. That means that not just gestures, but whole performances are captured, right down to facial expressions and line delivery. Expect some serious emoting this time around.

It looks like Treyarch is following Modern Warfare's lead in terms of big action movie set-pieces. Cliff-diving and rappelling through windows are already in.
