Call of Duty Black Ops 2 Enhancements

[Aiwa 24]

A big list of features and changes attributed to the upcoming sequel has been plonked on the Black Ops forums, and since removed, and then reuploaded to some different forums, and then removed again.

MP1st noticed pulled the info from a cached copy of one of those forum posts. The list contains lots of precise details about returning game modes, ditched game modes, ditched gadgets (like the RC XD), balance changes and word of a November release date.

If true, these details suggest that we’re not going to see a major engine upgrade from the new CoD, the info reads more like a patch list than a list of sequel features, but it’s all just rumour for now. Here’s the full list.

Leaked Black Ops 2 Multiplayer Information

This year, Call of Duty will return with it’s ninth installment with Black Ops 2. As expected it will be following Treyarch’s previous game Black Ops. It’s release date is set for the 6th of November.

Some of the highlights

Cool, now release it as a black ops patch and I"m in, otherwise they can piss off.

I don't know, sounds decent to me.

I don't know, sounds decent to me.

Me too.

I particularly like the emphasis on hardcore play and the removal of marty last stand and nukes.

Last stand is the poor mans bf3 res kit. Even though you can't get your ass back up.

[Dagoberis 31]

Revives are the only thing that I absolutely hate about BF3 - it forces a kit in competitive play for one, and two - it's fucking stupid.

[Antisocial 27]

Revives in Bf3 are probably the biggest factor in me hating the game. I splatter your brains on a wall, stay dead!
