My amazement is at maximum capacity.Registered User regular
We play Modern Warfare 2 online, and are awaiting Black Ops (or BLOPS, as it must be called). Most of us are on the 360, but there are several of us who play on PC and PS3. Campaign-wise, if there's still anything that you're not sure about, a military wizard did it.
Hop aboard the Bus!

@JD_2020 » If you're playing with friends in a party, you'll stay together. There are also Local search preferences.

@JD_2020 » Combat Training simulates the online ranked MP environment, to the T.
@lowsalaryjosh »#askJD Extended Mags, and Duel mags, whats the difference?
@JD_2020 » Extended Mags extend your magazine capacity. Dual Mags are two mags taped together, for faster reload every other reload.
@pilzkopf_ » Possible to get a sneak peek at the new Prestige emblems? #askJD
@JD_2020 » There may have been one hidden in one of our trailers somewhere ;-).
@Bashlol »#askJD can the XBOX expect to receive content ealier than PC and PS3 like MW2 did or will they all come out at the same time?
@JD_2020 » If there is to be DLC, the Xbox 360 will receive it first as per the Activision-Microsoft partnership through 2012 announced at E3.
@Adrianiswhoiam » can you create more than 1 emblem and toggle between the two in Black ops? #askJD

@TDog4141 »#askJD do only personal kills count towards your leaderboard killstreak? or can killstreaks help improve that?
@JD_2020 » That's a GREAT question, one I haven't though of. My gut says that Killstreaks still do not count towards that, but I may be wrong
@JMGrissom »#askJD how many multiplayer ranks are there?
@JD_2020 » 50 levels per prestige in #CODBlackOps.
@Adrianiswhoiam » does Black ops reward more points for capping flags in domination than in Mw1/2? #askJD

@c3rebral_7 » Grenade launcher is an attachment that is spammed alot. In #CODBlackops, what is the plan to counter that? #askJD
@JD_2020 » Well, Scavenger no longer replenishes noob tubes, for one. Also, One Man Army is not a Perk in #CODBlackOps
@KevinSmetana » Is it true that you can move your claymore placement? #askJD
@JD_2020 » Yes, that is true. All Equipment can be picked back up, and re-positioned. Including Claymores.
@GabeMcGabe »#askJD can you revive people on 2nd chance
@JD_2020 » Actually, yes. If you have Second Chance, any teammate can revive you - Not just others who also have Second Chance.
So that was it for today! We really hope there will be a twitter round like this again soon. So let's make #askJD a trending topic on Twitter, shall we?

(This information comes from very reliable sources. 99% Accurate all will be confirmed in the next few days I'm sure.)

COD Points
Every time you play, you earn COD Points -- CP. What you used to unlock by level is now purchasable with the in-game currency. Unlock what you want when you want (Cannot be purchased with real money)
Contracts
Contracts are time-limited challenges you buy and get more CP if you finish them. "Using any combination of stats, we can make any kind of Contracts we want, and can change them at any time." Mercenary, Operations, and Specialist contracts - Contracts are going to be huge, do challenges for what type of gun you want and earn more XP and more CP! (Something like challenges)
- Wager Match - a new Free for All game type. Put your COD Points against other players and the top three people get paid in the match - top 3 get paid. One in the Chamber (pistols only, one bullet, 3 lives gain ammo from kills), Gun Game (go through each weapon), Sticks and Stones (Ballistic knife, tomahawk and crossbow) Sharpshooter (everyone gets same random weapon - each kill = perk and score multiplier.)
Diving Ability: Dive into prone/Dive behind cover/dodge grenades/can’t shoot while diving (Heard it was glitchy and the animation takes about a second to get out of, haven't seen much so far)I have also heard that you can dive through windows and over cover.--Holi
Customization: You can customize your weapon so it looks the way you want it to look - 16 New camouflages patterns, and you place your emblem on it, customize your red dot sight
The reticles you can choose when you use a sight- (Dot, Semicircle, Line with Dot, Circle, Smiley Face, Arrows Horizontal, Arrows Vertical, Arrows with Dot, Boxes, Burst, Circle within a Circle, Circle with Dot, Circle with Crosshairs, Circle with Inner Line, Circle with Outer Line, Circle with Arrows, Circle with Triangles, Outer crosshairs, Small Crosshairs, Large Crosshairs, Diamond, Diamond Outline, Heart, Radiation, Skull, Square, Square Outline, Star, 3 Dots, Treyarch Logo, Triangle, Outer Triangles, X, or X with Dot, and Yin-Yang.)
The colors you can choose are Green, Blue, Purple, Teal, Yellow and Orange.
Emblem Editor – Images, layers, and a background. You change the scale, move, color, rotate, all that stuff. Create layers, then purchase the option with COD points to put it on your gun.
Killcams show customization so you will know exactly who shot you just by seeing their weapon.
*NEW* Face Paint - More info coming soon.
- Theatre mode: All Live games can be played back, searched, tagged, everything. The footage is yours. Storage up to 7 days or 100 games.
Bot Mode: Practice offline vs. Bots.
Create a Class
You see your character on this screen because Perk 1 has an impact on how your look in the game. If you are Ghost, you wear a Ghillie. If you take Flak Jacket, it's shown and you take less explosive damage.

Summit
Interesting news for those who plan to purchase a copy of BlackOps for the PC:After Call of Duty: World at War, we set out 3 goals for our next PC title:
* 1] PC gets every single game feature that the consoles get, but in a way that makes sense for PC.
* 2] PC gets even more features – the ones that PC gamers want like dedicated servers and more customization.
* 3] Keep it fun. Protect the integrity of the title through design and post-launch support.
Keep that in mind as you read through the decisions outlined below in our FAQ.
Call of Duty: Black Ops PC Multiplayer FAQ
Full feature support: Confirmed
Ranked Servers: earn XP and currency. Wager Servers: gamble your currency. Customizable Unranked Servers. Combat Training against practice dummies. Theater. Create-a-Class "2.0." Contracts. Emblem editor. Everything the consoles get. Implemented in a way that makes sense for PC (*cough* no lobbies *cough*).
PC Features: Confirmed
Dedicated Servers. New Server Browser. Dev console. /record. Customizable game modes, perks, killstreaks, classes, and higher player counts on unranked servers. Map rotation. RCon. Kick & Ban. MOTD. In-game custom Server Banners. And more.
Mod Tools: Confirmed
We will release mod tools sometime post-launch. We need to finish the game first. Then we will make sure any urgent issues are handled. Then we will begin work on tools. The extent of the mod tools package will not be known until this time.
Global Persistent Stats, Profiles: Confirmed
Your profile data is stored on servers for you and is accessible from anywhere on the internet. Stats, XP, COD Points, configs, etc.
Leaderboards: Confirmed
Yes, leaderboards - globally persistent leaderboards (i.e. NOT per-server based).
Steam Exclusive: Confirmed
Millions of Call of Duty fans are already on Steam. Their Friends are on Steam. Steam will provide the ease of auto-updating instead of manual patching. Auto-updating will also help keep the community playing together on the latest version. The Steam cloud will make your profile and configs available to you on any computer.
VAC: Confirmed
We are serious about protecting the integrity of this game from hackers and cheaters who would otherwise ruin the fun for the honest players. Used in conjunction with our own anti-exploit measures, Theater reviews, trusted servers, and supplemented by server admins with kick and ban powers we believe that Valve Anti-Cheat will be an effective solution for Call of Duty: Black Ops PC. We are committed to working closely and diligently with Valve to deal with new threats as they appear.
No “Public Server Files”: Confirmed
Many of these game features are predicated on having a trusted host or server. Otherwise these features would be wide-open to easy exploits and rampant cheating. Also, anti-cheat solutions can be significantly more effective on games that rely on trusted servers. We chose against “public server files” in favor of providing full feature support and protecting the integrity of this title. This doesn't mean you won't have customization or admin capabilities with your servers - because you will. This simply means we've partnered with an exclusive server provider.
GameServers.com Exclusive: Confirmed
We have partnered with GameServers.com as the exclusive provider of dedicated servers for Call of Duty: Black Ops. Every dedicated server for this title will be running on top quality hardware and infrastructure with excellent bandwidth. There will be a ton of official servers at launch for everyone to play on for free. If you want to run your own server you will be able to rent one at a great price (which will never go higher than $0.99/slot). They are actively adding new server locations and staffing up to meet global demand. If you don’t see your location you can suggest it here: http://www.gameservers.com/blackops/
Max Players: Not Confirmed
We have not yet finalized the maximum number of players in ranked or unranked servers. More playtesting is required to determine how high these numbers can go. This happens as late as possible in the project otherwise the game is likely to change in ways that could invalidate the results.
Minimum System Requirements: Not Confirmed
The game is still in development, and the PC team is hard at work making further optimizations. We will announce the min specs in the near future.
Hopefully that answers the majority of the outstanding questions not answered from our MP Reveal coverage. There are still some questions we do not have answers for at this time, so as always, we appreciate your patience. We will have all questions answered before November 9th.
Regards,
-JD, PC Dev, & the PC Team

Prestige and Hardened Editions announced! Won't somebody please think of the children?
http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/102746-Activision-Unveils-Black-Ops-Collector-Editions
Activision has unveiled the Hardened and Prestige edition of the upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops and as expected, they are equal parts cool and expensive.
You all probably remember the Prestige Edition of last year's Modern Warfare 2 but here's a little reminder, just in case: night vision goggles. The over-the-top Mewtwo collector's edition came with an equally over-the-top price tag of 150 bucks, but it was enough of a hit with hardcore fans that Activision has decided to do the same thing with Black Ops.
Behold! The Hardened Edition of Black Ops includes a custom, limited edition Black Ops medal, a Black Ops avatar outfit, four exclusive co-op multiplayer maps and a premium SteelBook case. It seems nice.
For the real collector, though, there's the Prestige Edition, and this is where we separate the men from the boys. Along with all the goodies included in the Hardened Edition, the Call of Duty: Black Ops Prestige Edition also comes with an RC-XD Video Surveillance Vehicle, modeled after the in-game RC-XD Killstreak reward. It's a fully-functional radio-controlled vehicle with 200 foot range, digital proportional steering and throttle, independent suspension, a display stand and built-in video camera and microphone that will transmit audio and color video to the pistol-grip remote, which is equipped with a speaker and two-inch backlit color screen with 220x176 resolution.
This kind of gaming goodness doesn't come cheap: The Black Ops Hardened Edition carries a price tag of $79.99, 20 bucks more than the regular release, while the Prestige Edition will set you back $149.99. It's a bit rich for my blood, but that doesn't really matter because, just like Modern Warfare 2, these special editions are only being released for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Sorry, PC gamers, no radio-controlled surveillance vehicle for you!
Call of Duty: Black Ops is set for release on November 9 for the PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii
I want to play with people on this forum!
(X360) Friends List for that console which overheats a lot:
We've got a CoD Clan Meta-Tag run by Burtletoy: A PA CoD Clan
[STRIKE]A PA CoD Clan is now full! Hit me up on PA MW2[/STRIKE]
From here, you can view other people on the tag and invite them to your game. I may do the same if the group I join needs more people, but sometimes I just want to pub-stomp, so don't be offended if I ignore you. Also, send the invite to the clan tag. Everybody sending one invite is far more convenient then me sending every invite.
There's also PA CoD4, which is an older account with a lot of names on it, I think it was being run by I King Kong I. It probably isn't being maintained anymore, FYI.
PA MW2 is now also full. Send invites now to A PA MW2 Clan
(PS3) Friends List for that console which people seem to laugh out loud about for some reason:
PA Handle - PS3 Name
Duke Phillips as Grizz359
mFiend as mFiend
Saint Justice as Saint__Justice (2 underscores)
Ah_Pook as Ah_Pook
SLyM as OvertlyEsoteric
(PC) Friends List for that console which actually isn’t a console and uses some sort of program called ‘Storm’, or whatever.Duke Phillips as Grizz359
mFiend as mFiend
Saint Justice as Saint__Justice (2 underscores)
Ah_Pook as Ah_Pook
SLyM as OvertlyEsoteric
I'll start a PA BLOPS steam group. Public for now, but we can make it private later on.

Feel free to keep discussing Call of Duty in general too!
Modern Warfare 3 probably won't happen/be any good
Because Infinity Ward has fucking imploded on itself and unless the newly-created (and independent) Respawn Entertainment manage to get the licence back, it'll either not get used or be used to make a sub-par title. Sad.

-M16A4's recoil significantly decreased while equipped.
[STRIKE]-SPAS-12's spread of shot tightened up, creating a longer 1-shot-kill range.[/STRIKE]
-FAL's damage increased from 55-35 to 55-40 while using the sight, which then allows 2 shot kills at any range (using Stopping Power) even with a silencer.
-MG4, M240, and the M9 do not benefit from equipping a Silencer. That is to say, when firing these weapons while silenced, you will still appear on the radar when you fire.

Like the care package hacking, it will be interesting to see how it's implemented. It may be BS, it may not.
{Twitter, Everybody's doing it. }{Writing and Story Blog}
Am I the only one who gets into one vs many situations?
Or a guy falling behind an object.
Or a guy falling around a corner.
Hacking care packages to make them explosive sounds fantastic to me.
Those situations call for flashbangs and frags. Or Deep Impact. I feel like I'm the only one that has never really had a problem with these perks.
But the class slots already made it worth it =O
Maybe they'll do something like letting us unlock camos.
It's just that there was few times when I was like "Man, I could use >5 class slots right now."
That and giving up the five silver stars.
For like 15 games in a row.
And I call in 15 AC-130's.
I miss the silver stars =(
I didn't like any of the icons till 5th prestige
Also, the wiki says there are 14 prestiges now with a rank cap of 50
That's going to take awhile
as it is for all the wiki sites
I believe the idea there's 14 prestiges came from a screencap saying something to the effect of Rank 14 Prestige or something like that.
I'm not sure if that's the correct interpretation.

lol there's a second guitar riff for completing the whatchamacalits... contracts or whatever.
i know we moved off of this topic, and its hardly relevant now that blops in ONLY 3 WEEKS AWAY, but dear god do not play medal of honor. my brother bought it, so i gave it a try. the SP isnt terrible, it just doesnt measure up to CoD in any way. the badass moments arent as badass, the npcs arent cool like ghost or soap, and there arent that many guns that you get to use. the multi is completely unplayable. i mean, i played it in the first week the game was out, so there were bound to be issues, but its completely broken. over 50% of my lives lasted less than 5 secs because it spawned me right behind a teammate who was being shot. my internet connection has never been good, but i lagged way harder than in mw2, to levels of near hilarity. and basically if you dont use the sniper rifle and camp behind your teammates, you will die a lot and not get as many kills. the offensive "killstreaks" are all the same, and the defensive ones are all pretty useless. basically, the game just isnt fun online. not fun at all. theres plenty more to complain about, but i dont want to seem like im "treehousing" and i doubt anyone here cares anyway, but i thought i'd just warn you guys against it.
in other words,
BLOPS.
HYPE.

wait....
"Enemy RC-XD in your area"
"rrrrrrrrrr"
I don't like the announcer voice though, he seems pretty disinterested.
Still, looks like alot of fun.
That video was awesome. Thank you. Midnight release, here I come.
And you DO have more bars. some of them are just timed.
Really, really excited.
Actually, the best part of it all seems to be that the game's not being handled the same way as MW2. I just don't think it's going to be as popular, and maybe that'll keep the majority of the douchers back on other games. I doubt it, but I can dream.
I expect only the best from our efforts, gentlemen.
You are a strange strange man.
So in the game winning killcam you see this guy shoot me, you see me drop, and you see him die to my return fire from the ground. That was the saddest clutch kill ever.
Also, got Ex Clips for the P90, and then I busted out this bad boy:
P90 Akimbo Ex Clips, Bling, SP, SA
150 bullets before I have to reload. Oh lord the double and triple kills that came about. There's something lgreat about not even bothering to reload between fights.
