they should have Nuketown 24/7 as a permanent match type :pac:

ops1 had nuketown 24/7 servers,ranging from demo and hq

Demo on nuketown is unreal

Most likely nuketown will have its own server on the pc

Unreal... As in broken I'm sure you mean? I've never seen spawn trapping like I did in Demo on nuketown, literally people spawning and dying over and over again

Not much any player, good or bad, can do if your gettin spawn raped which is exactly what happens behind the fence at c(?) Dom when the first target is destroyed. I've seen it countless times on nuketown and radiation

Still yet to hear any gripping music other than the fantastic Trailer song, I'm still awaiting a song to knock this off my favorite CoD song of all time.
Care Package/Hardened edition comes with a CD, probably will be listening to it during MP.

Who's doing the Blops2 score? MW3's was ok, some standout tracks like Russian Warfare, which was brilliant.

Trent Reznor of Nine Inch nails fame and Jack Wall video game composer....

Brian Tyler did the MW3 Score I believe.

He did, its not as good as MW2's but its still got some great stuff in it. Mw2's score is awesome though, still listen to it regularly have the full version of it with the 50 odd tracks

The Double XP weekend is only on the Nuketown map?

The difference between PC and Console is that the teams are random, there are no groups or parties in public so you'll rarely get these organised spawn traps.

Demolition in Combat training?

What i thought, but it looks to easy to get kills and the kill feed shows (3arc) like it did in black ops 1.

Maybe they added other game modes to combat training.

They said they added team based games to combat training. Also said something like you can level your first 10-15 levels of multi-player in combat training.

Just the xbox but not sure if it actually works.Give it a day or two though and I'm sure there'll be a working version doing the rounds and youtube will be swamped.

That's what everyone said last November too. Just wait until January and people will be pissed again. Why? Because it's nothing we haven't played before. This game is not coming out next week, we've been playing it for 5 years now.

Take into consideration COD4. There was countless people still playing COD4 even though W@W was out for the best part of a year. W@W didn't last as long as COD4 and MW2 didn't last as long as W@W. The "entertainment period" of Call of Duty has been getting significantly shorter and shorter every year. I don't want to put a downer on things because I know a lot of people are excited, just don't get disappointed if you're not blown away because remember, you've played this game before.

I also have serious reservations about this DLC business. Now I can understand the financial incentive for companies to get the pre-orders in but last years Elite or this years "Seasons Pass" actually drops the quality of DLC the community receives as opposed to better. For example, when Activision gets in DLC pre-order numbers, theres no motivation to create a quality product that will be bought and sold depending on it's contents. They already have your money so they're not fighting for anything at this stage. I believe if less people pre-bought DLC packages, the content quality would actually increase. Just food for thought but the way it is, there is no incentive to deliver quality content in CoD anymore.

Yeah well I can't wait for it! I have great faith in Treyarch that they will provide a decent game this year WAW and BLOPS were my favourite COD games in the last couple of years! People aren't forced to buy it, so roll on next week!

I still play Black Ops and enjoy it a lot. The missus is partial to the odd evening of Dom or Wager matches also.... always a plus!!!

For the people who have ops 2, how does it play compared to ops 1?

_Gawd_

Zombie gameplay and new multiplayer map vids...

Mr. Manager

So it turns out that the game is out here already... I'll be getting it tomorrow so

One of the lads in the office just went out and got Halo 4 (apparently not out till tomorrow) and they were selling Black Ops II.

Seems to be trendy having the game early so one can boast. I'm fine with waiting till the 13th. I know I'll get to play it and have fun.

Just back from the game store. The guy has copies but said the earliest he'll sell it is on Thursday. Working Thursday so will pick up a copy on break.

On the plus side, I picked up a set of X12's so you won't need to listen to me make love to a robot anymore.

Probably between €45 and €60 at a guess and depending on the shop. Tesco is usually pretty cheap
