damn...i was hoping that they would actually continue Black ops
because if you read in the Intel, Mason and the other 2 are hiding in Africa with the CIA hunting them down...but of course they couldn't do THAT could they...

Black operatives blow up cities like that all the time. Makes sense. I see myself still playing BF3 when this comes out. Muthafuckin jets.

ORANGE AND BLUE ORANGE AND BLUE ORANGE AND BLUE

OT: It seems that COD is the Madden of the FPS genre. Take it or leave it, it's not my cup of tea. But if that's what scratches your itch, well, sometimes a man's just gotta scratch.

So their big original game is just a Ghost Recon Future Soldier rip off? Ok, whatever.
I couldn't help think that myself. The one thing I did like about Black Ops was the retro setting, like the Vietnam war, etc. I felt like I was taking part in history (especially having actually been to Vietnam for real). Now this just seems another generic shooter.

EDIT:
Don't know if anyone's mentioned it yet but the trailer is up on IGN

http://au.ign.com/videos/2012/05/01/call-of-duty-black-ops-2-reveal-trailer?objectid=126311

Looks like they are channelling Red Dead Redemption for one part.

According to a large countdown timer that's been ticking away on CallofDuty.com [http://www.callofduty.com/] for the past week or so, a massive reveal for the franchise has been prepared for 9:00 P.M. EST during TBS's televising of the NBA playoffs.
A "massive" reveal? Really? "Yes, that's right shooter fans: we are indeed making another CoD this November."

:p Forgive me for being a cynical ass-wipe, but I'd hardly call anything Activision announces in regards to CoD as being "massive".

The announcement of SC II was "massive", hell they practically made it a national holiday in Korea. The announcement of Skyrim was "massive". Hell, even the announcement of Portal 2 was pretty big. But Activisin saying "Yep, we're STILL making them every year." is about as "massive" as announcing that you'll be having McDonald's for lunch.
YO! HEADS UP! I'M HAVING MCDONALD'S FOR LUNCH! IT'S THE BIGGEST THING SINCE JESUS! EVERYBODY KNOWS I ONLY EAT WENDY'S, SO THIS IS BIG! BIG WITH A BOLD CAPITAL B BIG! WATCH ME EAT A BIG MAC ON NOVEMBER 13TH, 2012! PREORDER THE D-LUX PACKAGE AND GET A FREE DEEDLY-BOPPER!

So...no more Mason then? But I wanted to know if he worked things out with the CIA. Wonder if they'll do flashbacks like the did with the World at War characters.

Anyway, any news on zombies? I need my zombies. I need Dempsy's badassness, Nikolie's drunkeness, Takeo's calm attitude, and Rictofen's--no, WAIT! Sam! I want Sam! Mua ha ha.
if its this far in the future [about 60 years if blops took place in 1960, im just rounding off the date] they would have to pull another time travel shtick to bring them back. playing as elderly men in WWII uniforms would be fun though.

What if, what if they took more than a year to make a game, and actually made it good?
All CoD games are on a 2 year interleaved development cycle. Jus' sayin'...
THANK YOU. it has been almost 3 years since someone has recognized that beside me. all cod games have work put into them, just not as much as other games.

Then perhaps they should focus on one game during that time, not two
Therefore time spent on the game is equivalent to the whole staff doing a years worth of work on it
Would also explain how none of the game's seem to have differed for a while

Did anyone NOT see this coming? They did the WW2 shooters, they did the modern shooters, they did the Vietnam shooter, now it's time for the obligatory futuristic shooter.
... And you know how many fucks I give?

It's funny how 90% of the people that will post in this thread will probably ***** at the game, the developer, the people that buy it or something that isn't relevant to anything at all, but then turn around and buy the damn thing anyway.

There's a reason this franchise bleeds liquid gold, yet nobody seems to want to admit that they actually will buy it, let alone play it...even less will admit they bought it, played it and enjoyed it. If it was as bad as everyone said it was, then it wouldn't consistently sell like hotcakes. *shrugs*

Oh, well. People are so strange...Anyway, I enjoyed the last one and I will probably look into this one. I logged in 73hrs into MW3, much less than the 217 I did in MW2, but if I can get 73hrs of enjoyment from $60.00, then it's worth it to me. That's less than a dollar an hour and far less than I pay for other forms of entertainment. Sign me up.

Well, at least the juxtaposition of somewhat authentic military procedures and riding on snowmobiles while firing a glock 18 gansta style will seem a bit less egregious.

if we have laser guns, jet packs and other futuristic stuff, the game might be interesting in MP. otherwise, no surprise to hear this.

here is the trailer without going on to youtube. amazing, you can ride on horses even in the future (being sarcastic).

and according to this, it has only minor changes in MP. well, im sure die hard core fans will have fun with it. i will be busy anyway with AC3 and the tomb raider if that comes out around the same time.
