With a lot of information being posted everywhere and in different threads, I’ve created this thread to help you easily find all the information that you need on Black Ops. If I missed a piece of news don’t post it here PM me and I’ll add it.

For the first time ever, Call of Duty is getting its own offline multiplayer bot mode called Combat training. This mode uses a completely independent rank progression, which you can play alone or with friends. This is a very good way of getting use to the game and guns before going online so you won’t have to worry about ruining your kill to death ratio.

Tier 1 perks also now have an effect on how your character looks in the game. For example, Flak Jacket, makes you look like a character from the Hurt Locker.

Two new Killstreak special weapon care packages were shown last night; a chain gun called ‘The Death Machine’ and a missile launcher called the ‘The Grim Reaper.’ Other killstreaks that can appear in a care package are RC-XD (RC car.), Gunship, mortars, and a SAM turret to shoot down gunships.

A new form of in-game currency is now being added called “CP” or CoD points. Players will earn money just like they earned XP in previous CoD games, these points cannot be purchased with real money.

Players can also take time limited challenges called Contracts to earn some “CP”. The three contract categories are Mercenary, Operations and Specialist. Mercenary rewards players for kills and kill streaks, Operations are for team players, and Specialists are for unique play styles.

Gambling has arrived in the form of a new mode called Wager Match (see above video) where players can bet CoD points. If you finish in the top three you will receive some winnings as it is split between the Top 3, obviously the top will gain most then 2nd will gain a bit less and in 3rd place will gain the least. This Wager Made contains four new game types:

One in the Chamber – Players will start with pistols with only one bullet and have three lives. If you kill someone you gain a bullet.
Sticks and Stones – Players start with a crossbow, a ballistic knife and a tomahawk. If a player is killed with a tomahawk they go bankrupt.
Gun Game – All players start with a pistol, every kill gives you a better weapon. First one to progress through all the weapons wins. If you get knifed your level gets reset.
Sharp Shooter – All the players start with the same randomly selected weapon. The weapons will cycle but everyone will have the same weapon so it’s all about skill.

Players are now able to attach custom made emblems and decals onto their weapons, and attach custom sights. Players will be able to edit, rotate and scale images down to place on the weapons that they have unlocked.

Players can now record clips and create screenshots to tag and share online to create better montages and show off some memorable clips that people never believed they managed to pull off. The camera can be switched between first and third person perspectives as well as free cam.

The RC-XD is earned by reaching three kills, Black Ops have thought about the physics as it jumps off of bumps and bounces off walls and generally stumbling around the map until you find a target then at that point you just have to pull the trigger.

With the addition of “CP” where you have to purchase guns and unlocks it is an extra layer on top of the levelling system in the past CoD games. Although it doesn’t replace the levelling system, but makes it more involved than ever.

You will still have to unlock many things by levelling up and even when you do you’ll find that not everything can be purchased with CP instantly, some weapons will only be able to purchase as long as you purchase other weapons first. Don’t forget everything cost’s points including emblems and the look of your rifle or player card.

Along with the Napalm Strike and the RC-XD spotted in the Call of Duty: Black Ops multiplayer teaser trailer, it is obvious that we can expect a whole new addition of several kill streaks as well as well as some old favourites from MW2.

Challenges are a big part of Call of Duty such an addictive multiplayer game. As mentioned above they’re back but renamed to Contracts, these challenges offered by Treyarch, changing every day or week. To partake in them, you’ll need to collect a few CP to bu the contract.If you complete the challenge you will gain extra cash. An example of a low priced contract is to get three SMG kills without dying in less than 40 minutes of the game. It costs 50 CP and if you complete it you receive 250 back, if you fail at completing a contract you’ll have to wait 24 hours to re-try.
