COD7: Black Ops

Undisclosed sources as Activision have leaked a few new details about the upcoming entry to the long running Call of Duty franchise.

Black Ops as it will be known is scheduled for release in November of this year and is to be set in the period between WWII and the Present Day. It is also mentioned that some of the missions will see you visiting Cuba and South America.

As well as these details it was also mentioned that "Zombie Mode" may feature in the new game.

You can read the actual information leak below.

"... With a scheduled release date of November 2010 the game is still in full development but undisclosed sources over at Activision have stated that "Call of Duty 7 will be set in recent history, between WWII and present day". Besides this information the sources have also confirmed that some missions will take us to Cuba and South America, hinting again in the direction of a Cold War / Vietnam based game.

Also revealed was that in certain missions the players are able to play as a member of SAS (the Special Air Service), the principle special forces unit of the British Army. One of these SAS missions pitches you in close combat during a mission in the Iranian embassy in London during the 1980's.

It has also been confirmed that Call of Duty 7: Black Ops will feature the popular zombie mode, in which players get to shoot down hordes of zombies, a feature that could not be seen in the Infinity Ward produced Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

And last but not least, dedicated servers will also be part of the new Call of Duty game, much to the delight of PC gamers across the world. After Activision fired Vince Zampella and Jason West from Infinity Ward, it seems like they are taking yet another step back from the direction they had taken with Modern Warfare 2 by re-adding dedicated servers."

IRANIAN EMBASSY SIEGE FTW!

Looks like something to look out for, with any look they wont screw it up

WTF?? Another COD?? I wonder if this one is going to be as expensive as COD6 an without dedicated servers again?

Yes, yes and yes.

It sounds potentially very good - and, being a CoD game, that's highly likely - but it will almost definitely cost a bomb, ship with a billion special editions with useless gadgets that no-one wants and it won't have dedicated servers. If it wasn't for all that, I might get it....

iranian embassy seige FTW indeed - I'd play it just for that

Did you two even read the quote Shyne posted up? It specifically states

, my guess it that the reason Acitvision couldn't include zombie mode in MW2 is because they don't own the rights to it, Treyarch do. So as its their turn to do a CoD game, it shouldn't be as much as a **** up as MW2 was.

Hell yeah - multiplayer co-op would be fun with black ops missions, very tom clancy

Also, the return of zombie mode? w00t!

YAAAAAYYYY!!!!!! sounds freakin awesome

how to make a good CoD game

1- have dedicated servers but dont release the code only allow limited access as it is in BattleField
2- get rid ov the sht knifing system and make the knife eqipable like all other weapons
3- no perks for kill streaks like dogs, helicopters, missiles ect
4- make sure hit box , hit detect and weapon damage are right first time
5- make it harder to lvl up to max and dont have prestige sht
6 - must be able to handle 50 man servers
7 - have in game sqads with sqaud voip
8 - must have PB not that slow ass VaC
9- most important design it for PC then port it to console even better run designs for PC and console
10 - dont have to many formats ie Conquest, TDM,S&D,sabo, ctf, demolition ect just have 3 or 4 max

that would do as a start but as we all know we will only see 1 or 2 of the above if were lucky (excluding dedicated servers as it is stated we will have them back) posibly lol)


zombie mode, tbh i wish they wouldnt bother with sht like that and actually get the stuff right that enevitably all will moan at first then add zombie later as free DLC

though i do really like the sound of the iranian embassy thing i must ask when has treyarch(or what ever they called made a good Cod game ? as many of you have stated they never have so dont get your hope up this will be any different

I liked the perks in the COD games so wouldnt like to see them get rid of them.
