Talk:Call of Duty: Black Ops

Zombies finally confirmed!
Yesterday, treyarchs comunity manager Josh Olin confirmed the ongoing rumor of about the hardened and prestige editions of Black ops... the 4 co-op maps included in those editions, are going to be the old world at war zombie maps, (Nacht der Untoten, Verrückt, Shi No Numa, Der Riese) updated and upgraded to the new engine. also by saying this, it's pretty much obvious, that the co-op mode is some kind of "Zombie Mode" (link to the article posted by Josh Olin): --WikiaWriter 10:10, August 14, 2010 (GMT)

Adding editions and minor note
As the page appears to be locked again, could someone please add the info on the retail editions (e.g. hardened and prestige, with their contents), similar to what as done on the Modern Warfare 2 page?

Also, it could be worthwhile to note a new feature in Black Ops - adjustable zoom for sniper scopes. It was seen in one of the demos back at E3 (on the Crossbow), and is featured again in the Prestige edition trailer. --Sentinel 101 17:21, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

Prestige edition
The prestige edition comes with a RC Bomb, how awesome is that?

I also got these from the video - the Dragunov uses its proper scope reticule (THANK GOD) and a silenced AK-47.

Good find! And that looks more like a AK-74, but time will tell. And about the SVD. JiZz. And the RC car bomb looks sick! What do you think the weapon is in the sniper victims hands? Maj. Boner 19:50, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

Also heres the link to anyone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4RPK45emPU&playnext=1&videos=EfnGr-fgGHQ -Maj. Boner

@Maj.Boner: In the sniper victim's hand was AUG. It's seen second later when is falling behind him:D

I found this in the end of the trailer, looks like a skull of something, maybe the 10th PRESTIGE symbol?:

Very unlikely, Komrad, As days I have searched these Trailers, and I have found out, Most of the enemies, they wear Berets, No longer, Komrad, For three days alone, I have watched this Multiplayer trailer over and over, three days, luck alone has saved me from these retched adds on it and got me info, We Will Find Out On Sept. 1 or Nov. 9- German, not Russian, German writer and Cod 4 Sniper, and Specialist Grundy. 22:23, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

That is the MACVSOG emblem.Sgt Sprinkles 22:50, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

E-Tool?


That sniper appears to have an E-Tool on his back. Do you think it will be usable, or just part of the skin? 19:55, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

Well It wasn't uncommon for some soldiers to whip out their E-tools in CQB 19:57, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

Looks useable. 19:58, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

I think it's probably just a decoration. 20:10, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

thats a normal plain shovel! Alex dlc 21:01, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

Well you do fight as a specail ops soldier in Nam... Maj. Boner 21:03, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

What, I've said this like, 2 or so times, and you guys NOW notice it? (Some people need to pay attentionn!) - Specialist Grundy. 22:25, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

I just noticed that in WAW some models have E-Tools on their back. Maj. Boner 20:08, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

Weapon Lowering
Watch the trailer closely and at the part where he kills the guys at the camera, then goes to retrive it, watch the top left and notice how hes not aiming and that his weapon is lowered. I also have more proof becuase in an interview the military advisor said hes always been bugged by how soldiers are always pointing thier guns all the time. I think this could be great for machinima making! Maj. Boner 21:40, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

Zombies Confirmed!?!?
See here: http://www.codblackopsnews.com/2010/08/12/gamestop-employee-accidentally-confirms-zombies-for-black-ops/

I was one of the forum members who called and i can confirm this. What does everyone think?? Mike1094 22:04, August 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm not believing it, not until Treyarch says it themselfs. Dolten 1164610-433px usmc logo svg large.png  Let's Talk  22:05, August 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * Does make sense and everyone can experiance some nostalgia.Sgt Sprinkles 22:54, August 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * Will be very good if it's real, makes everyone anticipate the game even more. Emilios1310 12:12, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

If you follow the link above then you can see that there is an image on the page that they have had to remove due to a legal claim by Activision, so yeah its probably true but they just want to hide it some more and unveil it in their own way. Seems kinda silly to me, they may aswell just confirm it now that it is in the open. Ouroboros Omega 12:59, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

Clan tags/ customizable guns
The CAR at the beginning of the multiplayer trailer appears to have the users clan tag carved on the charging handle, sorry if this was already mentioned.Sidewinder82 00:16, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

The Famas also have "customized look" - a bulldog image on the left side and some carvings all over his left side. 178.36.8.180 06:24, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

It probably has something to do with the "Sally" carved into the m1911 at the end of most Block ops commercials.Sidewinder82 14:53, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

Candies!!!!xD






New launcher(probably surface-to-air launcher from SA family.). Anybody knows the name of the missile? (with missile's name we'd be able to recognize the gun:D)

Browning M1919(a4?) confirmation!!!! It has custom stock.

M1 Garand(?) or Maybe some kind of shotgun? No idea:(

PS: Sry for bad editing:D

Morihaus 06:33, August 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * TBH the last two images are really stretching it. Darkman 4 06:34, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

Yes:/ I didn't have enough time for it:(

But Browning should be confirmed:D Morihaus 07:04, August 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * No. That one is really, really stretching it. It looks morel like an M16. Darkman 4 07:18, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

The first pic is probably the Archangel. The second looks like an M16. I'm at a loss for the third pic though. Chief z 08:11, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

EDIT: Maybe an SKS? Chief z 08:21, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

Mysterious explosion


In the first scene of the trailer you can notice glass shatter and an explosion go off on the left hand side before the man in front of the Camera Spike is killed. In super slow motion you can see a red light on the wall upon the killer's entrance and shortly before he executes his victim, you can notice an explosion in the exact area of the red light. This may simply be a C4 pack....or not.

IMO it's made-up specially for the teaser. They placed c4 there and to add some "war atmosphere" they(or later killed enemy player)planted C4 and later detonated it just before the moment of his death(because "on the screen there always should be some explosion present" filmakers'doctrine)xD Morihaus 12:12, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

It was First Blood, who could have planted it there on one team, while someone on the other team placed a Camera Spike. But yes, it could have been there for cinematics only.

Martyrdom?
In the Prestige Edition Trailer, after the soldier gets sniped a grenade can be seen flying through the air. Could this be Martyrdom making a return? There was no evidence of anyone throwing a grenade, and it did appear from nowhere after the soldier was sniped.



If you look down you will see second "object" and "unknown bloody splinter".

1st.Theory: He was cooking grenade at the moment of his death. 2nd.Theory: It(along with other "objects") is ppiece of his head brutally ripped by Dragunov's shot:D

Theory: Martyrdom.... No solid proof(it should not "launch into the air" but "be with the body") Morihaus 12:07, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

Cooked grenades don't "fly" either, they fall like a Martyrdom Grenade. But yes, it is JUST a theory.

Bling?!?
At the start of the trailer there is a CAR with silencer and red dot sight. could that mean bling is returning?

Uhm, most likely TheManOfIron  12:21, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

No, I think that weapons can be customised however you want them.  Helljumper U T C

^^^ Thats a really retarded statement. If you got the chose both a first perk, assuming thats what bling would be along with 2 other attachments, people could find some OP combinations. I think it's safe to say that your statement is completely untrue. TheManOfIron 12:21, August 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * It's safe to say your statement was unwarranted. That's why you were warned by Bovell. 13:29, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

Hahahaha, I had to read that one like three times to get it... dyslexia, my one weakness. :3 Ouroboros Omega 12:55, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

Smiley
Has anyone noticed thet in the beginning of the multiplayer trailer the Commando( with smiley dot sight) has a big smiley on the side of it. You can see this when the person reloads.Hunter Steven 14:06, August 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * We've already caught that, thanks though.  20:54, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

M60
Why is this still absent from the list? YuriKaslov 21:11, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

Its still in Other Qw3rty!  21:12, August 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah, I didn't see that there. YuriKaslov 21:17, August 13, 2010 (UTC)

guided rocket
In the multiplayer trailer when the RC bomb is driving there is a rocket above ot which does a turn. Possible guidded rocket system?Hunter Steven 09:03, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

Srsly? go and read up on the Ark Angel kill-streak, its been mentioned several times on this page and in the article itself... -_-" Ouroboros Omega 12:52, August 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * Ok, no need to act like that.  12:58, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

Hardened Edition.
Hey, does anyone have a date for when the hardened edition will become available for pre-order in England? I want the 4 original zombie maps but I dont want to shell out £129 (or whatever) and get an rc car Im never going to use and a medal Im never going to wear. Ouroboros Omega 12:50, August 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * The medal also comes with the Hardened edition :P but anyway, no dates regarding that have been released yet. Maybe checking out GAME's or HMV's websites or asking in-store might help... 12:58, August 14, 2010 (UTC)

Good idea, pity I live in the middle of nowhere... hmmm, should be able to find some use for the medal. Thank for the help anyway, lemme know if you find out before I do. Ouroboros Omega 13:02, August 14, 2010 (UTC)
