It's that time of the year again, the build-up begins to yet another installment in the Call of Duty franchise. This time around it's Treyarch's turn, and the following image has surfaced.

oyBjT-600x337.jpg

Another Call of Duty: Black Ops leak! This time, it seems to be the official logo for Treyarch’s upcoming Call of Duty title, Black Ops 2, including a potential release date for its debut trailer.

Call of Duty 9 has suffered a number of leaks recently, including confirmation of its name, Black Ops 2, along with a release date as well as some multiplayer information that we got a hold of earlier.

This time, YouTuber CoDInform was able to catch what looks to be Black Ops 2′s logo which we’ve included above as the featured image. Three reasons it could possibly be legitimate: First, it looks professional; Second, it was removed from the official Call of Duty website upon discovery; Third, if you look at the date in this image, 04.28.12, it happens to be the exact date of two years earlier that the original Black Ops reveal trailer was released.

On top of this, the original URL linking to this image read ‘http://www.callofduty.com/bo2/images,’ which happens to be a similar URL used for Modern Warfare 3 images:

‘http://www.callofduty.com/mw3/images.’

If it does turn out to be fake, at least this one was rather well researched. So, props to whoever created it. If it is real, expect a reveal trailer of Black Ops 2 this month on the 28th!

  • Team Defender and Infected will not return
Pointstreaks
  • Will follow from Modern Warfare 3's system

  • RC XD will not return
  • Heat vision is a new Pointstreak reward. When you get the required points, you can activate this Pointstreak and your player pulls out a scope and attaches it to your weapon. This scopes main advantage is it's ability to detect enemies through most walls. Note, the scope can only be attached to primaries not including shotguns

Hardcore
  • Larger emphasis on hardcore than ever before
  • No grenade launchers

Perk System 2.0
  • The Perk Pro system has been upgraded
  • There is now 2 options a perk can advance to.
  • Both require different challenges to unlock
  • Once the desired Pro version is unlocked, the player can select that as their "Perk Pro".
  • Once selected, the only way to choose the other option is by entering prestige mode.
  • For example Perk slot 1 has the perk called Speed
  • Speed - Reduces the time taken to aim down the sight. Pro I - Swaps weapons faster. Pro II - Throws equipment faster
Combat Training
  • Will be returning with vast improvements.
  • Difficulty is no longer based on how long the bots take to start shooting.
  • Bots now have an advance AI system
  • Similar to the behavior seen in the MW3 Spec Ops survival

Interesting if true. Prestige setup could be a problem, if everythings unlocked before 50, which you'd think it would do to cater to those who dont like prestiging, then those of us that do will have 40 levels of nothing at 15th.

I could probably see them using those extra levels to unlock titles and gold camo perhaps.

no mention of CoD points returning, personally i dont mind the way they've done it (well copied the system from BF3) in MW3 with the guns levelling. Maybe CoD points can be equivalent to MW3s tokens in that you can buy more streaks, weapon xp, double xp, classes and titles, if they decide to use CoD points again.

Combat training returning :D:thumbsu: good fun solo, even more fun changing your clan tag to 3arc, joining a mates game and ruining his fun :D

One thing that is missing on that list is Lag Compensation not returning or at least toned the **** down to MW2 level or under. Hopefully Treyarch take notice of all the lag complaints from MW3 and to a lesser extent Blops and dont **** it up

I like how they improved it to give you more point streaks for completing the objectives, but I don't think it goes far enough. It should also give more point streaks for shooting down things like enemy aircraft to encourage people to do things to help the team. Too often I'm in a team where nobody bothers to shoot down an enemy chopper ( I usually have to). If a chopper just goes about it's business then it's effectively giving the other team 5+ kills. If it offered 2 point streaks then it may encourage people to shoot it down.
  • The Specialist Pointstreak has be modified. 2 kills now gets you 1 perk. The 4th kill gets you 2 more perks. The 6th kill gets you 3 more perks. The 8th Kill gets you 4 more perks. You do not get every perk when you reach 8 kills. Perks only become "Pro" when you have them Pro
I like this.
  • RC XD will not return
A shame. This was a good killstreak. It just should have been a higher kill streak. The problem was that it was a 3 killstreak, if you were using Hardline it would only take two kills to get it. It should have been a 4 or 5 killstreak.
  • Heat vision is a new Pointstreak reward. When you get the required points, you can activate this Pointstreak and your player pulls out a scope and attaches it to your weapon. This scopes main advantage is it's ability to detect enemies through most walls. Note, the scope can only be attached to primaries not including shotguns
I like the sounds of this killstreak provided it's at least a 7 point streak (if killstreaks don't stack like the MW's and is based on the Black Ops system). Though I hope the counter perk to this won't be Ghost because too many people used that as it is in Black Ops. Hopefully they will assign it to a different perk but in the same slot.

All in all, I think the rumoured changes are good but however doesn't go far enough to warrant a purchase.

This is the main thing that will determine if I'm interested. Even with just a few minor changes I would probably still get it if they get rid of Lag Compo.
 
If you don't like Call of Duty then don't buy it. Why should they stop making games just because you don't like it? There's plenty of people that still enjoy it and it's causing no harm to you if they continue.

Personally I sold MW3 a month ago because I wasn't enjoying it but you don't see me bitching about how they should stop making more. I'll still get Black Ops 2 on day 1 but I'm not falling for Elite this time.

I think they should stop making games at the rate they do. Take a year or two to make a serious leap forward. Get your best people working on the one project for 2 or 3 years. Build anticipation and support the game with DLC and improvements over the next 2 or 3 years, not just cut and run, fitting 3 overpriced map packs into a 12 month lifespan only for the community to run to the next new thing.

They won't though because it's successful. However it just leads to the same damn game being shat out every time.

And people still buy it. They'll keep making them every year while they continue to sell as much as they do every year

I think the reason it sells so much is because it appeals to the guy in the street who doesn't have time to invest in a Skyrim, or a Read Dead, or a Fallout due to a lack of time

Thats why i enjoy COD. I played some Tiger Woods last night, then switched to COD, played 2 games of Dom and 2 FFA Gun play games and was satisfied. Plus you won't find tighter controls on any FPS on the market

Yeh i know that.

Its hard to say but its uninteresting and its the same old stuff just getting re hashed again. Its not innovating anymore, dont you get sick and tired from it glenno?

Its not a full filling game, its just soulless.

It was once good, but its well and run its course for me, they hype it up as the next big thing buts the same old

Love to shoot up some Japanese ships. Got to save those Manatees. ;)

Ps. Submarine level in Mw3 was pretty sweet and unrealistic.

Not really, because i don't sit there and play it in 4-5 hr sessions. I log 2 hours to 3 hours tops on it, and that may only be once every few weeks, while all others are like last night, jump on, play 4 games, jump off. It may not be groundbreaking, but its great fun in spurts

I'm very competitive, so i love that aspect of online. testing yourself against other players

inb4testingagainstlagcomp

And of course they hype it, it generates sales. But i don't think this will sell as many as MW3 did. The MW games just have that bit more hype. I think thats got to do with how good MW1 was as a game, then MW2 really stepped it up in terms of marketing etc....
