So tomorrow sounds like the day where we get to see all the goodies we heard about tonight since streams weren't allowed for the presentation. I'm hoping someone's stream goes up tonight while playing on a demo station.

For all the great decisions - this is a terrible one.

I wish COD would try to encourage teamwork rather than every person for themselves + camp in corners to get killstreaks!

All of the guns I've seen in the game so far look like they kill really quickly with almost no recoil anyway, so the removal of stopping power doesn't look like a big deal to me. Maybe juggernaut makes a huge difference or something, but we haven't seen that yet.

Effect · (09-02-2010, 03:39 AM)

Still no information regarding the Wii version or if any of this will be apart of it or left out it seems.

VaLiancY · (09-02-2010, 03:39 AM)

Fuck TDM. CTF and Domination all day.

Who am I kidding? Domination is fucking TDM.

This. they're better off focusing more on free for all modes since people don't work as a team anyway :/

Looks like the PC version will be using VAC instead of PunkBuster (which every other CoD outside of MW2 used) which makes sense since it's a "Steam exclusive". Great :) Whatever the hell anti-hack system MW2 uses is goddamn terrible.

the more exposure K/D is given the more people care about it.

Juggernaut isn't in the game according to some impressions.

Fuck me, Black Ops looks to be pretty good. The amount of features both post COD4 Treyarch games have had is something else.

Now if the game is more balanced than MW2, then they'd have officially have surpassed what's left of IW in my eyes.

Now you're doing the math for them, smh Treyarch. Don't make the COD crowd any stupider by doing their work for them. :lol

i_am_ben · (09-02-2010, 03:42 AM)

so red perk is basically cold blooded or hardline?

Or Bling.

Edit: Hardline is Tier 1 (blue)

Edit 2: Ghost is Cold-Blooded, also Tier 1 (blue)

All this sounds so damn awesome. I think I'll go put in my reserve this weekend. :D

Deware80 · (09-02-2010, 03:44 AM)

My goodness looks like ALOT of crow will be eaten by Treyarch haters between now in Nov:lol , they are going all out, cant wait to see their improved co-op modes:D

Niblet · (09-02-2010, 03:45 AM)

Wow I totally swore off the franchise after borrowing MW2 from a friend, but damn this is looking mighty interesting with them new wager matches and tweaks.

Psycho Powaa · (09-02-2010, 03:45 AM)

I've been asking for it since before MW2 came out, but Treyarch finally added customizable looks to the character. I was hoping it would be at the same level as Rainbow Six: Vegas though.

VaLiancY · (09-02-2010, 03:46 AM)

SAM turret killstreak? Fuck you AC-130....err, AC-47.:D

LeMaximilian · (09-02-2010, 03:48 AM)

In the trailer, the only red perks I saw were Slight of Hand and Steady Aim. Wuuuuut?

They're mixing and matching Tiers with perks.

It is? Well, it works terribly with the game if so ;) Let's hope things are a tad smoother with BO.

VaLiancY · (09-02-2010, 03:52 AM)

I take it the SPAS won't kill from a city block away.

- Update* Bling is now called Overlord and is a tier 2 perk

zero margin · (09-02-2010, 03:54 AM)

launchers in secondary (I wish they would just remove the damn things to be honest) and shotguns are my two main concerns I have left. I think that's awesome kill streaks don't add on but that also means I won't see the top ones hardly ever. :lol

Full Recovery · (09-02-2010, 03:54 AM)

What is the tier 2 perk "scout" ?

LeMaximilian · (09-02-2010, 03:55 AM)

Wait, like 50 levels per prestige...or 50 fucking prestiges?

Full Recovery · (09-02-2010, 03:56 AM)

50 levels to prestige, probably 10 prestiges.

levels per prestige is what I gathered.

LeMaximilian · (09-02-2010, 03:57 AM)

Ok okay, my head almost exploded to COD MMO Status.

Nelo Ice · (09-02-2010, 03:57 AM)

well im liking these changes i may be sucked into buying another hardened edition.... :lol

VaLiancY · (09-02-2010, 03:57 AM)

It has to be 50 levels til your first prestige otherwise we'll be hearing this all over again.

"LEVEL 50 PRESTIGE FOR 500 HEADSHOTS OR 1200 MSP"

GillianSeed79 · (09-02-2010, 04:00 AM)

Isn't flak jacket juggernaut or am I thinking of something else?

Mush · (09-02-2010, 04:00 AM)

Fuck, I said I wouldn't buy it no matter what anyone said. Day 1 :( Treyarch done good.

It probably reduces grenade damage like that other perk from W@W.

yoopoo · (09-02-2010, 04:01 AM)

Now you can vote for the maps too!

Net_Wrecker · (09-02-2010, 04:01 AM)

Wooooooowww that is actually a lot of good news. The Explosive Crossbows still have me worried, but I guess there were so many because it was a Wager Mode trailer.

I'm willing to give this franchise ONE MORE SHOT because it really looks like Treyarch is trying to balance this stuff out. Hopefully it plays well in the standard modes.

Psycho Powaa · (09-02-2010, 04:02 AM)

No Danger Close/Fireworks/Sonic Boom equivalent. No OMA. No Commando. No Stopping Power. No Juggernaut. No Deathstreaks. Scavenger is still around. Second Chance (Last Stand of WaW) is back.

Does that convince people yet?

sweetvar26 · (09-02-2010, 04:02 AM)

Hopefully no NUKE, keep the killstreak rewards low so that people don't camp in order to get them.

They confirmed a long time ago there was no nuke.

Oh boy, thank god.

Stoney Mason · (09-02-2010, 04:03 AM)

Any info yet on what the killstreaks are and the attached kill count number to get them?
