So the long awaited Call Of Duty: Black Ops Multiplayer Trailer has FINALLY been released! I'm sure that, by now, many if not all of you have seen the footage and all of the innovations added and favorites returned, but the question has that has to be asked: just what did we see in that trailer?


"There was a LOT of info hidden within that #CODBlackOps MP Teaser...What did you guys find?" - Josh Olin via Twitter


So...what did we find? For this thread I have compiled a list of everything that i'm able to spot in the short 1:24 taste of Black Ops Multiplayer.



Weapons/Equipment:
Many weapons were seen, and some not seen but listed in killfeed. Please note that not all of the weapons are new weapons, some have been seen and confirmed prior to this trailer.


Visibly Seen:

  • MP5K w / Suppressor


  • Crossbow w / Explosive Tips (2 explosive tips per spawn)


  • L96 Sniper Rifle


  • AUG


  • CAR-15 Commando/XM177


  • FAMAS – Fully Automatic instead of 3-Round Burst firing mode previously seen in Modern Warfare 2



Not Visibly Seen:

  • Python Snub Nose Revolver


  • M16A1

The feed from the Camera Spike replaces the UAV



Equipment/Secondary:

  • Ballistic Knife with the option to pick up after use (Knife featuring a spring-loaded blade to be ejected with lethal force, possibly used as melee as well)


  • Sticky grenade


  • Claymore Mines


  • Camera Spike – presumably a placeable camera that can record and monitor enemy movement. No killstreak-required-to-obtain specified.


  • Motion sensing device appears to be in the mini-map, possibly detecting enemy presence. Most likely equipment, and not a killstreak.

RC-Car killstreak acquired!



Killstreak Rewards:
The option to customize your killstreak rewards has returned, and with the option comes some new, and familiar killstreak rewards:

  • 3 Kill Streak – RC Car Bomb – a small Remote Controllable car, capable of detonating some distance away, unsure if this is timed or remote detonated.

  • 4 Kill Streak – Care Package – a return from Modern Warfare 2, presumably a crate dropped from a Chinook chopper possibly containing a resupply of ammo/equipment or a random killstreak reward.

  • UAV – presumably shows enemy location on the mini-map. No killstreak-required-to-obtain specified, although it has traditionally been a 3 Killstreak reward.


  • Napalm – incendiary bombs dropped from the sky, essentially raining fire on the target. No killstreak-required-to-obtain specified.

    An ongoing Napalm Strike.


  • Airstrike – possibly harrier airstrike. No killstreak-required-to-obtain specified.

  • Attack helicopter – details unavailable. No killstreak-required-to-obtain specified.

    The Attack Helicopter (enemy) can be seen on the radar as it attacks the player.



General:
We saw a lot of general gameplay mechanics, HUD features, customizable options, etc that are staples of the Call of Duty multiplayer and some exciting new features, as well.


  • Film record/edit mode - the trailer featured the ability to record and edit segments of your multiplayer matches. Details on this aren't available at this time but it appears that you will have the option to import multiple clips from matches into one total film, creating montages of your favorite moments.



  • Dive To Prone Mechanic - typically in Call of Duty, your character was required to crouch before reaching the prone position. As rumored before, Black Ops will feature a dive to prone position. Essentially this does what it sounds like, your character will be able to be sprinting and leap forward onto his belly, without having to crouch midway.

Notice the player diving for cover on the right.



  • Bling - the perk Bling, from Modern Warfare 2, appears to be returning. Bling allowed your weapon to have two attachments, and occupied the first perk slot in Modern Warfare 2. During the beginning of the trailer the CAR-15 Commando appears to have a Red Dot Sight (smiley-face sight) and a Silencer attached to it. Either that, or weapons will be allowed 2 attachments by default.



  • Overkill (?) - Overkill may make a reappearance in Black Ops, although this is unsure. During the trailer, the character switches from his primary weapon to the crossbow, which is presumably a primary weapon in itself. Overkill gave users the option to select two primary weapons, as opposed to one primary and one secondary. The crossbow with explosive tips may be viewed as a launcher, however, making it a secondary weapon. Details aren't available just yet to confirm this any further.



  • XP - Black Ops seems to be employing the same Experience Points system as Modern Warfare 2. I.e. +100 XP for kills in Team Deathmatch.



  • Improved HUD - The Heads Up Display (HUD) has been changed for Black Ops...The mini-map is now divided into a grid with cell names. I.E. D3, D4, etc. Also, there is a compass surrounding D-Pad image in the lower right hand corner of the HUD.



  • Callsigns - Callsigns appear to be returning, although not in the same fashion as Modern Warfare 2. The callsigns viewed during the MP trailer did not contain titles, instead opted for emblems and a customizable background theme. I.E. Tiger stripes behind your name.



  • Customizable Weapons - During the trailer it is possible to see what appears to be the users Clan Tag etched into the back of his gun. Also seen is a red-dot sight with a smiley-face where the dot would be, and a smiley-face decal on the side of a gun.



  • Factions - So far only the Spetsnaz of the Soviet Union and what appears to be an American faction were seen in the trailer.



I'm sure many of us are now counting down the days until the Full Reveal Trailer on September 1st but has this footage convinced you whether or not to pre-order? I won't be pre-ordering as i'm expecting a sequel to Modern Warfare 2's MANY failures, but how about you?[/COLOR]
