COD Black Ops 2 is actually bringing innovation to COD

[BehattedWanderer]

Innovation is not moving the games time period up by 5 years. Innovation comes in the gameplay department, which we know very little of.

You can take a shit on a toilet, then take a shit on a field. You could call the second one an innovative shit because it took place in an unusual setting, but its still shit.

Mythbusters proved that it is possible to polish shit to a gleaming shine. A polished shit, as great as it is, is still shit. Though, personally, from the trailer, mostly I just thought a lot of "no way in hell things are going to change that much in thirteen years. Weapons, sure, but whole fucking infrastructures? BULLSHIT!"

Thats because that's what you think. I doubt it will be exactly like it is in Blops, but do you have full evidence to back that claim?

Hell the US military is working on so much stuff, so much which is still being kept secret. We got no idea what they're making. For all we know, they could be almost at this level of technology.

Heck even the drones in the trailer are already real.

I'm gonna go ahead and follow this using the method scientific, until I see evidence contrary. This is a Treyarch game. So, let's follow this out. CoD3, World at War, and Blops weren't exactly the emperor's shiniest stone, if you see what I mean. Depicted are the same shenanigans, in a slightly more "futuristic" setting, where everything is flying, much like they thought the 50's would be in the 20's, or the 2000's would be in the 70's. The premise promises man versus machine, so I expect to see variants of plane, helicopter, tank, and APC that I'll have to shoot at using a combination of futuristic boring guns and anachronistic, good old fashioned lead-propelling sidearms and rifles, a couple of explosive launchers of varying ridiculousness, and maybe one gun that's generally fun to play with. And zombies.

My hopes aren't high. By analyzing the past, and observing the trend, I make my predictions. Until I see otherwise, I continue to call shit.

With that out of the way, the setting and "Strike Force" sounds like a mash of Homefront, Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 2142.

This is a step in the right direction, I'm not sure why people are still complaining. I mean come the fuck on, they're trying to change the game! What more do you want? It just baffles me when people complain about Call of Duty being the same game and when they finally start to change things people complain that it's not original enough. Ugh, rage sorry >.>.

Ahem. *Leaves and goes on walk.*

 

[RedDeadFred]

I know. I won't truly believe it until I see it but I think they may actually be taking a step in the right direction.

It does sound interesting. Will be keeping an eye on it.

Missed the Escapist article, thought it was just a developers video. Who knows? this may be the innovation shot in the arm this series needs. Or it could crash and burn, either way I don't really care that much about the game itself but the fact they are (apparently) trying to move the genre is interesting.

im kinda scared by this, a new halo game looks crap but the new CoD looks good?
was there some kind of apocalypse happening when i wasnt looking? seriously this is strange

I will enjoy this. I will be amused by people deriding it. I will end up feeling that it was fun and pretty cool but not worth 60 bucks. It's like a Tony Jaa marathon on a rainy day. Mindless action and adrenaline, but because that's what I was expecting, that's not a problem for me.
