Love or hate it Call Of Duty Black Ops II is one of the systems biggest games releasing day and date with the New Wii-U console. I know some of you are tired of the game but getting a "feature" complete version of the game one day one is a major accomplishment for Nintendo to gather back some core gamers.
So While I am sure that there will be an official Neogaf thread headed up by someone other than myself I thought this would be a great resource for those of us who are looking to get the Wii-U version of the game.
There are so many un answered questions about the game on the Wii-U and not a lot of details out yet, but I will try to keep this thread updated with the newest details about the Wii-U version.
If you have any questions about the game, comments or new information that should be in this post please leave it below so I can add to our Q&A section.
Also for the record I am only going to cover the Wii-U specific features of the game in this thread Killstreaks, maps and other features will not be discussed.
This post is a WIP till I get caught up.
WHAT WE DO KNOW
- Call Of Duty Black Ops II is being Developed by Treyarch and not farmed out to another studio for a port.
- Game will release day and date with the Nintendo Wii-U (November 18th)
- Features all of the same content as the PC/PS3/Xbox 360 versions of the game including a nonlinear story and zombies mode, it's full online multiplayer modes and even the new eSports features.
- 60fps on both the TV and gamepad simultaneous when playing split screen is the goal. (Close to that now).
- Local multiplayer will support both traditional split screen on TV (up to 4 players) or one player on TV and one on Gamepad..
- Wii-U Gamepad will be utilized to show radar can view multiplayer maps, call in score streaks and choose loadouts as well as check on friends.
- Controller Choices: GamePad, Wii Remote, Classic Controller Pro, Game Pad, or WiiU Pro Controller
Question We Don't Have answers for
- Will The Game be in 1080p 60fps or 720p or some other variation of screen resolution. (rumors peg 1080p but nothing is confirmed)
- Will you be able to play splitscreen or 1 player on the gamepad and one on TV while playing OnLine? (Im guessing yes to at least splitscreen as they stated the game is feature complete with PS3 and 360 both which will support this)
