OK I call BS on David Vonderharr.  He has another blog on here stating that he doesn't understand why some people don't play multiplayer, but then he claims that this game is built for competitive gamers. If you never played multiplayer, you obviously are not very competitive.  Here is an idea David. MAKE A BETTER GAME!!!   THE SAME GAME SINCE COD 4 GETS OLD BUDDY.  LET US KNOW WHEN IT SINKS IN.

 @Tyreeceholmes Couldn't agree more bro, this won't be any different than any of the other CODs

Black ops built with the 13 year old obese jr high child with a single parent who was raised on terrible cartoons and swears too much. This way he can ask for a modded controller and every other peripheral to try and get an edge and then will spend 90% of game time in a corner with a claymore infront of him popping whoever walks by and then laughing and calling you a fagg....

 

Competitive gamers are f'ing morons who cannot enjoy a video game for the value of a video game..

 

Changing everything into a competition is what ruins it...EvERYTHING has been ruined that has moved focus from fun to "rules and balancing"

 @Tyreeceholmes I agree totally.  I see a million players that want to turn gaming into a freaking sport.  Hate to tell you kids, most sports require PHYSICAL EFFORT.    Games are no longer fun, they are balanced so that a 9 mm sub-machine gun has the same knockdown power as an m60.  Its sad.

Competitive call of duty died with MW2.

 

If you want a true competitive experience try out quake live or team fortress 2

Competitive gameplay my ass... i mean cmon, many of the cod players are underaged kids, i happen to know some. Most of them are trolling, and honestly i trolled sometimes, it's what the game is making you do, you just can't avoid it. I was so excited about mw3, just to discover that it was worse than mw2 which sided with COD4 is the second best game in the COD  franchise. I don't see black ops 2 rising to the expectations.

My advice: Wait for a month to pass after the release, check the reviews, look on forums for other people's oppinions and if it's good THEN buy it.

 brainwashed sheep= kids who think new perks and a few maps constitute paying another 65.00+30 for DLC on  a rehashed version of MW or BO ....or BF3.......

 

I'm just saying don't buy it make em work a little and fix the old game at least...bullet recognition,lag,servers,matchmaking,maps,graphics,,,ect... it hasn't changed ever....don't be  a lamb !

 

if you disagree you are a" fan boy " meaning your heads  so far up their ass you can't see daylight.....

my main reasons for having never bought and never will buy a CoD are: the spawns, the hit detection, the campers, the goddam annoying little kids and tryhards and the map design. i know IW and treyarch can fix the spawns, the hit detection and the map design. i also know theres nothing anyone can do about campers and little kids/tryhards

 @IndestrucubleR What is your definition of a try hard?

IndestrucubleR
IndestrucubleR

 @edwin92

 my defination of a tryhard are those players that are constantly swearing and/or talking trash down on other players and have no respect for people like me that arent so good at CoD and when they do get beat they rage at the people in the lobby for cheating, teaming up and they rage against the game for sucking even though the game itself is fine, i dunno, maybe my definitoin is wrong, what is your defintion of a tryhard??

 @buccomaticSorry but why would I want to get BF3 when I can get Blops 2, did you not see all the new perks flackjacket, dead silence, ghost, and lightweight to name a few. Not to mention this COD is completly different, especially the maps; no more are there the same cars and cargo crates on every level. Man BF3 doesn't even compare.

 you are a moron, dead silence, ghost and ligthweight have either all been in previous CoDs. lightweight became famous in modern moderwarfare 2  while ghost became famous in the first black ops. and flak jacket is similer if not exactly the same to blast shield in MW3 or ballistic vest, which u have to earn

 @buffaloblitz85 Total different. One has enormous maps with tanks, jets, helicopters and real bullet physics and the other is an arcade shooter on tiny maps with no vehicles and zero bullet physics and realism.

Who gives a damn about shoutcasting. How about working on your servers get them a little better. Hit detection blows in all the CODs. The games are great but they concentrate on to much crap that only a hand full of people will use. They are making some great changes but they have a long way to go.

To all of you guys/trolls saying this isn't the biggest launch in history well your just dead wrong. I mean cmon look at all the changes, graphicly they had to of spent a good year alone enhancing it. Also what about all the new perks trolls, yeah like dead silence, scavenger, and ghost (enemy cant see you on radar) among others. Quit hating on such a redefining game such as this. THIS WILL BE EPIC

You're and graphically are words you should know how to spell correctly esp. when trying to sound like an adult using worlds like ?redefining". This is the reason on top of the subject at hand why I laughed at you. You're just another COD kid that came around way after COD was PC only back in the day. Let me guess your first COD was MW?

listen in and shoutcasting would be cool for battlefield 3 where people are actually using team chat or squad chat to be tactical. i mean i like cod but people just troll or are annoying or just dont talk. so its kinda a failed idea

Competition is fun! How come they never talk about working on the spawns or lag?  Wouldn't that make a bigger/better impact on the competitive nature of COD?
