Though unable to attend the event in person, game design director David Vonderhaar put together an informative presentation detailing some the exciting new multiplayer goodness making its way to Black Ops 2 this November At launch, three modes will be playable with up to three different teams within the regular assortment of playlists.

These three teams can be made up of three to four players. Party Games essentially replaces Wager Matches from the original Black Ops. However, players will now be able to earn XP and rank up in the regular progression. Combat Training is now integrated into the main game and will include three different modes at launch.

All game modes are customizable in Black Ops 2. Bots can be added to almost all game modes if a team needs filling out, for example. Players will also have the power to restrict content like certain attachments, perks and equipment.

Interestingly, players will also be able to redesign the Pick 10 system to either a Pick 3 to Pick 17 system and anything in between. This can make for some extremely skill-based matches when weapons, perks and equipment are limited to only three slots.

A slew of competitive settings and options have also been thrown in, including how FFA, TDM and CTS are scored, the ability to turn off 3rd person spectating, the ability to disable the announcer and a whole lot more. Challenges reward players for almost anything and everything — ranging from simple tasks to more difficult feats. These challenges, numbering in the thousands, also reward players with XP in order to level up even faster.

Every weapon in the game, including atypical weapons like launchers, knives and assault shields all have challenges for camoflage patterns. Once these base camos are unlocked for a weapon, a whole new set of challenges are unlocked to complete for special camos, including some interesting hidden ones. These challenges also extend to optic reticles. In-game, these rewards show up as a neatly presented icon in the top center of the screen when earned and are reviewable in the after-action report.

Every Player Card in Black Ops 2 is made up of these elements: In the emblem editor, players will have up to 32 layers to work with.

Objects can be flipped, moved, rotated, scaled and copied and pasted from one layer to another. The choice of colors has been improved and RGB color mixing can also be tweaked. The emblem editor now also supports transparency.

Should you choose not to create your own emblem, default emblems will also be provided. For those willing to get creative, more complex shapes will become available upon completing specific challenges. When it comes to backgrounds, over are selectable, not all of which are simple rectangular shapes. Up and down-voting is now also included for both films and screenshots.

An extremely powerful new feature, the Highlight Reel , allows players to create a film with the simple touch of a button. Settings can be customized, however, to expand or simplify the contents of your film. Further editing can be done once completed as well. As previously mentioned, players can also CoDCast previously recorded games in order to either get some practice in, or create some nifty commentaries.

Parties can now head into theater mode and watch videos together while having the ability to watch any player from a first-person perspective. Treyarch has also doubled the amount of clips or segments that can be put together in one video — up to 20 in total. Additionally, clips can now be merged into each other, creating one big clip. The brand new Attach to Object feature, a brilliant addition, will let players produce some really fancy shots.

By entering free-roam, objects that are selectable will turn green. When selected, the camera will simply follow that object as it moves throughout the gameplay.

Objects can range from various scorestreaks all the way down to the rocket that is launched out of an RPG. This means you can now follow said rocket in slow-mo as it plows into your enemies face.

Treyarch is handling prestige very differently in Black Ops 2. Once again, assumptions are being challenged. This time around, weapon experience and earned attachments are are carried over, as are all challenges. Black Ops 2 is meant to be played all the way to prestige Upon prestige-ing, tokens are rewarded to the player which can then be used to unlock what ever item you want forever, including items that you have yet to reach the required level for.

On top of these tokens, an additional reward can be selected. Only at prestige 10 is absolutely everything unlocked for the player. Ambitious, indeed, is Call of Duty: Stay tuned for more undead info, as well as our very own thoughts and impressions of the multiplayer gameplay. Any of these new features in particular have you interested? Let us know in the comments below! Do you have a list of all the gamemodes? I assume this is not exhaustive.

No Domination, etc, etc…. I think this was just showing the new game types. But did you see the Black Ops 2 preorder camo? From what Ive heard, BF4 is possibly getting a Theater mode, but it hasnt been completely confirmed yet.

The game is already difficult for consoles to run well; theatre mode is out of the question for now given how expansive the game is textures, graphics, environment, etc. You do realize that all it loads are scripts right?

Script files are nothing but text and the file sizes are usually pretty small. It most likely is something that has to be hard coded in. Hop off your high horse ya fucking BF3 kiss ass, learn some facts before you criticize! He does the same thing on BF3 articles about how BF stole this or that from COD lol he trolls himself!

BF fanboys have an inferiority complex.. BF stole the game modes from COD, not the other way around…lmao. Not all BF fans have an inferiority complex. Basing a whole community because of one idiotic person not talking about you, talking about Bateman. But yeah, BF did take all these modes from COD, not the other way around like you said. But i Will say Squad DM MultiTeam DM I have not seen that much besides BF. Search and Destroy came from Counter Strike too.

So COD pretty much took game modes from PC game and implented them into their games. Bad company had gold rush which then IW made it into demolition just with a tweak. BF3 was the game that took Gun Game from the original Black Ops. And Gun Game originated from CS. The new theater mode sounds awesome, and Challenges for Camos and some hidden camos? Haha, youve never prestiged? I prestiged in MW3 a lot, just because that was the cool thing to do first COD Game for me , but figured out laterit was a waste of time.

However, with what treyarch isdling, im definently prestiging to 10 in this game.

Yeah I was just too lazy to do all the challenges over again. BUT my other online multiplayer games are working just find. Will BO2 have an option to play with bots offline? Like Black Ops 1, when you go split- screen and select to add bots? Combat Training in Blops was NOT offline. What DecoFreitas is asking is: It was possible because I used to do it every single time my Xbox Live expired.

Even if it is a penis. Clan tags will probably be censored again. Sorry, the CoD community is not mature enough for that level of freedom.

Besides tell me why BO2 prestige is bad? The emblem editor is back? You think Treyarch would have learned… I hate seeing sexual emblems every game. Well not exactly a bad thing. Not like all of them are Dick ones. Personally i prefer to make my own and be unique one of the things I did enjoy from black ops 1. But I do understand it is annoying. Lets just leave it at that. But in saying that it depends on what you choose to unlock.

I think when you level it will go something like lvl XX unlock gun choose one lvl XX unlock perk choose one lvl XX unlock killstreak choose one lvl XX unlock tactical gear choose one. Although they will have more unlocked.

You know how fucking hard it is to level up something shit like AA12, so that it becomes useable? I believe that its ONLY your weapon attachments, challenges and camos that carry over. Not the weapons themselves UNLESS you use a prestige token on a particular weapon. Makes some sense, but not exactly what I was asking. But no matter, I think, Stephen Ngapare has answered my question, I think. There are both camos for simply leveling up your gun, and camos for challenges like getting X head shots!

What are the weapons differences shown from Eurogamer? Can someone further explain to me the prestige aspect. I go through the levels unlock say 50 items… Do i get to keep all of them when i prestige and then unlock the others afterwards or do i lose those 50 and get to pick any 1 item already owned or unowned to keep forever after the fact? So what ever you had access to when you reach level 50 and then you decided to prestige you keep it all.

And you continue to unlock things. From what I have read here you will need to get to prestige 10 level 50 to have access to everything. And by everything I am assuming later prestige levels will be mostly for the playercard customization thing. Since i sure most guns if not all would be unlocked within first 2 or 3 prestiges.

That will not be lost. However, as mentioned, you can use a Prestige Token to keep a weapon at any rank unlocked as you Prestige. So if thats the case how does one unlock all of the items? When you are leveling up do you get a specific gun or ur choice of all ARs Snipers etc depending on which level it is? This game sounds better every time! I was able to do quite a lot with the video editor in Ops 1, the new additions sound incredible. I take my best games and edit them in full to make them look like movies.

Kill Confirmed is back from MW3! That was one of the few things that kept me going back to that game. I really feel it is one of the best game modes for COD. The pure killing of TDM, but extended in time, yet has the objective twist of domination so people are promoted to move around a little. Anyone know if they are going to fix the linking your YouTube account to Elite?

I feel compelled to point out the two mistakes in the first sentence: Call of Duty Black Ops 2: Video Game News, Reviews, Previews and Blog. I wonder if they kept the audible thump to go with the hit markers when you shoot someone. Thats one of the main things that makes me like Black Ops over MW3. Does that have to do with anything?

Wat do I need to do!! I prestiged now for the scond time and i have gotten the creat a new weapon slot but neither of them show up.

How can i use them? Or what can i do to make them appear?? How do i use the optic i unlocked with the challenge? In the beginning i was unlocking them and i was using them automatically, then when i changed to the ACOG instead of the reflex for the first time i didnt stop receiving challenge accomplished notifications but i cannot use them now.

I even tried going back to the reflex and it has me using the basic reticle, even though it shows that i received the challenge rewards in the barracks.

Black Ops 2 , Call of Duty , News Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 , Featured , PC , PS3 , Xbox Time for some insanely awesome emblems! Or more dicks on screen. Just watch what happens. So I read correctly? Just Pick 10 and some cosmetics like weapon camo. Are you an idiot? That guy is just a moron. Forgot about Halo, I never really played much of UT. Successful Troll is Successful.

I will now prestige for the first time ever, lol. Oh m gosh bro, You should put that on your CV. I for one will be sad if they censor clan tags…. Is there going to be zombie theatre mode?: My friends had a 9 hour long game on ascension so I doubt the theatre can capture that lol. Faraz is a troll, just ignore him! Yeah, BO2 will be my next favorite CoD game with all of the features it has given us. I think when you level it will go something like lvl XX unlock gun choose one lvl XX unlock perk choose one lvl XX unlock killstreak choose one lvl XX unlock tactical gear choose one and i think it recycles over and over til you get prestige Hope that makes sense!

Nah dude, my bad! I am sure it was pretty clear but. If what is said above is percent true then. Is it the game mode Bot Stom, Bot storm, or Bot Stomp? Zombies are bots, unless you mean bot teammates. You really show that you care by doing stuff like this. The ONLY thing that sucks about this game so far, is deciding what I wanna play first…. Still not sure if I should get it at midnight though. You should save your time waiting in line and get the game a couple days later.

I love you Treyarch! They added a CARBON FIBER camo!!!!! Thank for the info. Does anybody know the 11 team deathmatch unlocks? Ive done 10, wondering on the last one?
