Black Ops is receiving a lot of hate from gamers who seemingly refuse to even try the game. Is there legit reasoning behind this hate or is this the fallout of the disappointment known as Modern Warfare 2? In what was surely one of the biggest hype campaigns of all time, we were told COD 6 would be the FPS to end all other FPS titles. Instead, come November we were met with COD 4.5 and it seemed even worse than COD 4 to many folks due to its balancing and hacking issues. Many gamers predicted MW2 would be like this, but most of their complaints and the signs they pointed out were ignored by the bigger crowds. Black Ops is selling great, don't doubt that. But it would seem that group of pre-release doubters has grown and saw fit to label Black Ops a terrible game, without even playing it.

The truth is Black Ops multiplayer does more right than it does wrong. Simply put, the game is great! With the new COD points and Wager matches in multiplayer it is clear there has been more thought put into this game than all the previous COD games combined.

From Sharpshooter where every player starts off with the same weapon and battles it out for points as everyone's weapon cycles at the same time to One in the Chamber where you get a pistol and a bullet. In One in the Chamber you must get a kill to get another bullet and there are only three lives for each person. Gun Game is another greatly designed Wager match that adds a lot of creativity to the title by challenging every player to start off with a pistol and work their way up a universal tier of weapons. Each kill you get bumps you up a notch to a new gun. They get better and better as you go but if you die you must start over.

For those who say Infinity Ward would have done a better job, simply put - you are insane. Take a look at the generic approach taken in the first Modern Warfare title and the incredibly dull follow up Modern Warfare 2 and I don't think it's hard to see that IW preferred coasting rather than setting goals for themselves and implementing additions to the COD brand.

The real issue I see with Call of Duty: Black Ops is that it should have gone even further with innovation. The problem with that is whenever gamers get used to a game, change of the formula is usually met with disdain by their fans. I think Treyarch has absolutely succeeded in bringing change to Black Ops without upsetting the style and fundamentals of the game, but rather improving it.

Just saying, Black Ops wouldn't be anywhere today without MW2 or IW. Also, please don't forget to reward me if I helped or informed you.

Like I said before IW is always the guinea pigs with the games, Treyarch sees what they did wrong and improves on it.

End call of duty at call of duty mw3 the series has gone on for far to long.

I think IW should try a different era i.e Civil War, Korean War, or WW1.

Black ops and treayarch receive hate because they are not IW.
So it's like 60% of the CoD community is Hitler, because Treyarch is jewish and not catholic. Oh, see how they also scapegoat Fourzerotwo and JD_2020 for all their problems? Just like Hitler.
CoD=Nazi game.

AND THAT IS WHY CALL OF DUTY HAS THE WORST COMMUNITY EVER.
