Talk:Call of Duty: Black Ops

Brutal like "No Russian"
Apparently Treyarch is adding some kind of a more brutal version of "No Russian" to keep reality intact in the game. I think we should add the fact that something like no russian into the Black Ops page. link GunsSwordsFlames 02:45, August 27, 2010 (UTC)GunsSwordsFlames

Swimming:
Guy's, HipHopgamer did an interview with Josh Olin, and Olin confirmed you can swim in singleplayer, but not multiplayer.Can someone add this.Link here, XDEATHMAN4aP90x 16:46, August 25, 2010 (UTC)xDEATHMAN4aP90x

Map markings in multiplayer levels?
I looked over the multiplayer teaser again just a few minutes ago and notice some grid markings on the map (B2, B3, C3) - this leads me to believe that this could be used to call out certain parts of the map to teammates. If I'm not the only one seeing this, perhaps that should be added to the multiplayer section. TheAxis.42 10:38, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

References?
Who editted the page to make the references be all over, can somebody fix this, because I sure don't know how to. XDEATHMAN4aP90x 20:08, August 22, 2010 (UTC)xDEATHMAN4aP90x

Levels in Vietnam
In the Vietnam article, it states that there are 3 confirmed missions set in Vietnam. This article says that we know of only 4 missions so far, and WMD is in Siberia, and Payback is in Laos. Is this a mistake, then? SSDGFCTCT9  天皇陛下萬歳！ 01:04, August 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Its a mistake on our part. I'll fix it. Darkman 4 03:53, August 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * By the way, WMD is in The Ural Mountains in Russia, not Siberia. 08:44, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

More info from GamesCom
During the first preview of Black Ops, viewers noticed that the normal yellow star marker wasn't on. This time, Treyarch have removed it from Black Ops. Olin believes that there still will be on-screen instructions in the game but you will have to clear out the area or follow your group to complete a task. 07:48, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

It's just going to be words or a phrase with a dot underneath that will help you,no stars.Poop copter 16:24, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

Galil ARM Proof (with dedication to Darkman 4 )


Confirmed? For me it's obvious:D Morihaus 08:30, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

Added RGD-33 Proof.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RGD-33_grenade Russian soldier is carrying 2 RGD-33 grenades. Confirmed? About shotgun: idk which model is it but it's similar to Bekas M more than to Mossberg 500 and so. (forend shape is a key to recognize shotgun) http://world.guns.ru/shotgun/sh46-e.htm Morihaus 08:55, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

It looks like a Galil to me, but I'd wait or a clearer image. . 10:31, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

I agree, it does look like a Galil now. 10:38, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

Nicely done. As for the Shotgun, I agree, especially as it makes more sense for a Russian shotgun to be in the hands of a Russian. SSDGFCTCT9  天皇陛下萬歳！ 01:47, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

And what ? Russians with Tavors and FN FALs in MW2, Romanian WASR-2 in BO.... Just because russians are holding it doesnt mean its russian. Oh, and shotgun seems like China Lake Gl to me.

Meh, fair enough. SSDGFCTCT9  天皇陛下萬歳！ 13:32, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Ammo Counter
Maybe it should be pointed out that the Ammo Counter in Multiplayer Teaser uses numbers for ammo in the magazine also, not small lines like CoD4, WaW and MW2. BRX 10:56, August 19, 2010 (UTC)BRX

Nice Catch! That will make things a bit easier when playing now. 16:55, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

Do we know if bling is returningDarth smeg02 21:46, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

Black Ops Multiplayer info
Posted by NateRios430 on Jun 13, 2010 in Rumours | 91 commentsAs all of our readers know, one of the most highly anticipated features in the upcoming Treyarch title, Call of Duty: Black Ops, is the Multiplayer aspect of the game. To date, very little information has been released about the game’s multiplayer features and gamers have been anxiously awaiting news. We may, and I repeat, we may have found that long-awaited update.

WoodysGamertag, one of the hosts of Painkiller Already, a popular gaming podcast focusing on first-person-shooter titles, received an insider tip about Black Ops’ multiplayer mode. WoodysGamertag said that while he can not vouch completely for his sources credibility, he says his source “…is an industry insider. I was skeptical until we traded emails. It’s very difficult to spoof your domain name.”

So, without further ado, here is the intel that he received…

Perks

 * Players may chose two perks and based on those choices, a third perk is chosen for you.
 * Commando has been removed.
 * One Man Army has been removed.
 * Scavenger no longer replenishes equipment (i.e. claymores, C4, etc).
 * Cold Blooded and Juggernaut are part of an armor system that the player wears.

Killstreaks

 * At this point, the highest killstreak reward is for 15 kills
 * Killstreak rewards will not count towards your next killstreak. For example: if you receive a 5-killstreak reward, the kills gained by that killstreak will not move you towards your next killstreak reward. Killstreak rewards may only be earned through your main weapons.
 * Pavelow will return as a killstreak, although it has a feature unique to Black Ops.
 * UAV will return as a killstreak.
 * In addition to the Pavelow, there will be two other types of helicopters earned as killstreaks.
 * There is no Emergency Airdrop, but there is a Care Package killstreak reward.
 * The SR-71 Blackbird will be available as a killstreak reward.
 * Tactical Nuke will not be returning.

Weapons

 * The FAMAS will return, but not in a 3-round burst firing capacity. It will be fully automatic.
 * There will be no gun from the M4 family.
 * The M16 will return, still as a high-powered, high-accuracy weapon.
 * The tactical knife is no longer available, while a new knife will be available in it’s place: the ballistic knife. A ballistic knife has a detachable, spring-loaded blade designed to be fired a distance of approx. 6 meters at a rate of 39 MPH (63 km/h).
 * The claymore is classified as equipment, thus the Scavenger perk will not replenish it.
 * Grenades are not classified as equipment and will be replenished by Scavenger.

New, confirmed guns include:
Additionally, players will be able to bypass the Crouch position and go directly from Sprint to Prone. In effect, players will be able to sprint and drop flat onto their belly without having to crouch first.
 * SIG commando – Assault Rifle
 * RPK – Light Machine Gun
 * Skorpion – Submachine Gun
 * PSG1 – Semi-auto Sniper Rifle
 * MAC11 – Machine Pistol

That is all of the intelligence that we have so far, and of course it must be taken with a grain of salt. Modern Warfare 2 gamers can remember back to a similar article being posted months before the game’s November release chock-full of misinformation.

Time will tell if this news is true, but with E3 less than 24 hours away, be certain to check out our live-blog for continuing updates throughout the entire E3 expo. There is sure to be plenty of great gaming news and, of course, the highly-anticipated Black Ops info!
 * uh, thanks for the copy and paste? Darkman 4 03:50, August 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry dude, this has been posted on the wiki, like 4 time already, we all know who Woodysgamertag is. Everyone knows OMA and Commando will not be returning. Ya came on it late. Maj. Boner 04:41, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

KS-23 and Makarov pistol?
One of the summaries from today's press at Gamescom says that there's going to be a KS-23 shotgun and Makarov pistol in the game. Should we add those to our weapons page, or wait until we have a few screenshots? Darkman 4 03:50, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Personally, I'd wait until we get some screenshots. Then again, we have the G11 and China Lake GL on the page. (BTW, you misspelled "add" like "ass." :P) Chief z 04:35, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Their are screenshots of russian soldiers with a unidentified pump action shotgun with a wood, curved stock. It would make sense because russia has never had a offical Russian shotgun in a cod game, always some american shotty. Maj. Boner 04:45, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Leaked SP gameplay:D
http://callofdutyzombies.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=1617

crappy video,but some new info is present:

04;16 - shotgun icon - KS-23 04:28 - AK-47 icon 04:41 - C4 or Semtex in "C4 mode" 11:11 - FP View of AK47:D 11:49 - Galil ARM :D Eh...Confirmed? 12:03 - KS-23 Notice foresight and overall size. 12:40 - icon of LMG with bipod : RP-46(PK ancestor) Morihaus 06:43, August 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * I think the shotgun icon at the start is the SPAS-12. Also, the AK looks way better than the screenshots made it out to be. Darkman 4 06:52, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

About SPAS: It looks like he picked this shotgun and later used it. He didn't pick any shotguns until his shotty appeared:d In conclusion he picked KS-23.:D btw. confirm RP-46, IMI Galil ARM, KS-23 and RGD-33 Handgrenade. Morihaus 07:08, August 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'm not adding the RP-46 because the footage is a bit too grainy to make out what it is, but if there is higher quality footage showing it, then it'll be put up. The RGD-33 isn't being added yet because there have been multiple cases of items appearing on a character model but not actually being used in-game (like how the MW2 Ghillie Suit model has a M1911, but it is never used). Darkman 4 07:20, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Agreed:D Morihaus 08:54, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

So the Galil is confirmed, Ak has a better skin, some kind of RPK-type machine gun, and 15 mintues to drule at! Maj. Boner 14:30, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

unknown shotgun
im sure you have all seen the image with the shotgun on the guys back. its clearly a pump action shotgun with a wooden stock, but which one? i think its probably one of these 5: mossberg 500, winchester 1200, franchi 720, bekas m12, or remington 870. what do you guys think? Alex dlc 12:53, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

The winchester 1200 doesnt look like that so it cant.Sgt Sprinkles 13:22, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

nevermind guys, its the KS-23 for sure! i think it can now be added to the weapons list Alex dlc 13:44, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Easter Egg weapons?
Do you guys think Easter Egg weapons like the Ray Gun from CoD5 will be present in Call of duty Black Ops? Poop copter 14:42, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

That would be cool, but also brings up another question. How do people find easter eggs like that? How could someone just jump into those puddles and stay long enough to get the ray gun? How could he know? 14:43, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

I don't know how they find it,but you can always search youtube! lol Poop copter 14:50, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

I'm guessing they search and search and search x50 the game files till they find a code for this. Then they do it, get it and tada. Its the MW2 Elevators I wonder how they find. JayWarS1903 16:57, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

The ray gun easter egg in COD WaW is most likly one of the developers told a friend and then they told a friend until eventually someone put it up on YouTube and then anyone can find out. I agree with JayWar those elevators are hard to do when you know where they are let alone when you don't.

Selective Fire Weapons
In the various teasers, trailers and playthroughts that have been released, there have been a few weapons shown that fire fully automatically in Black Ops, but in other titles had semi or burst fire capabilites. I wonder if in create a class 2.0 there will be an option to change the fire mode on certian weapons.

 * Before CoD 3, on the PC you could do that by hitting the M button. YuriKaslov 04:25, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

but maybe it's Nagant M1895 with suppressor attached(it was used in RL by KGB)

04:07-08 - unknown LMG with bipod(RPD/PKM/RPK?[rather this]))

09:00 - ger.Armbrust Varabler Zoom - eng.Crossbow with variable zoom.(+icon) - Variable Zoom as attachment?

09:38 - Makarov icon and model

09:45 - RPK(without 74:D)icon

10:33 -ballistic knife in action(+later replenish of it)

I noticed it too:P. Maybe they want to add him "veteran level kick-ass" look?xD

EDIT:Important!!!! I've also noticed sth in the "unknown revolver/handgun thing with silencer"...It's morphing from pistol to pistol w/ silencer and then to revolver(with silencer) that looks more like single-action ol' colt rather than double-action(notice grip length and shape)..really, really weird...:? Morihaus 17:57, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

Ability to fight while gibbed.
In one of the videos of the Treyarch community, they show that soldiers could still fight while "missing an arm". Some of the Treyarch community were showing how people could reload a handgun with one hand. Anyone else think that might be a feature? YuriKaslov 20:51, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

It would be really stupid, and unrealistic if it where a feature. If you're missing an arm you would quickly start bleeding to death, and plus there would be the shock too. MacMillan said it best "Nice Shot. I think you blew off his arm. Shock and blood loss will do the rest." 21:02, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * I think Yuri has a point. However who's to say you lose an arm? all you need is a broken, or mangled one to cause you to use one arm in combat. Maybe at some point your arm is severely wounded, and your only choice is to fight with one hand? It's seems highly probable to me. --LOST-The Cartographer 21:07, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't think it'd be like how Zakhaev got his arm torn off anyway. It's very easy to gib people in WaW, so why not? YuriKaslov 21:10, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

It said "missing an arm" so i thought it'd be more like how Zakhaev lost his arm, if the character is using one arm because it was injured then that would make more sense. 21:19, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

^ "missing an arm" could also mean that soldier simply cannot use his second arm at the moment of reloading the pistol (carrying sth etc.)not literally "missing an arm":D Morihaus 21:24, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

General, Zakhaev was shot by a speeding 50 cal bullet that goes by faster then the speed of sound, then was shot in the body or head, then the energy just TORE open his arm and the wind and hitting the ground helped it come off, Yeah, He'd be pretty shocked, but he lived, plus, he was in Chernobyl, where a nucleur disaster went off, with radition, So, you gotta think, with all THOSE factors, I'd like my arm be torn off just by a M40 or AMW, Imran was tough, he got over it, and it is possible, I mean, I'd love that, I mean, who doesn't love the armless dude that can put a whole mag in his gun in less then 30 secs? i'd take me around 2 hours to reload with one hand, but it very possible, there are soldiers who got a arm or leg blown off, and just pull out a pistol and just shoot, think of Last stand or Second chance, you can be shot in the neck ,and somewhat survive. Specialist Grundy 22:21, August 21, 2010 (UTC) I know! Maybe, if one arm is gibbed, it acts like a last stand, except instead of a pistol, and going down on the floor, you use a knife and can move normally for 10 seconds only able to use your knife. Huh? Huh? JayWarS1903 17:00, August 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * Jut because it happens in a game doesn't mean it's the same in real life Grundy. You do know that even if you were hit in the arm or the leg with a .50 cal round you'd still likely die from the kinetic energy wave smashing into the rest of your body. --LOST-The Cartographer 00:06, August 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * Maybe theres a part in the campaign where the player loosses an arm and they have to fihgt with the other? Hunter Steven 01:41, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

Well IRL, it takes a few minutes after one loses a leg from the mid thigh, so probably it is technically possible to survive a minute without an arm. But it would take a very strong person to handle that kind of pain while firing a gun at the same time. 98.207.163.254 02:58, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

Makarov, KS-23 are already on the list because of it(and the're confirmed). Why not to add WA2000?

Also this "only mods can edit BO article rule" is pretty annoying for me. I want to add some confirmed and legit news but I can't and mods don't appear frequently:/ Said.:P Morihaus 21:29, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

Save it, Keep it till it is comfirmed or in the game, I mean, we do not want a 'nam mw2, the one thing that made mw2 suck, is that we knew everything 'bout it. Specialist Grundy 22:24, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

No, we haven't seen it in gameplay, so it doesn't go in the article. 02:18, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

Clan tags on the guns?
If you notice the M16 (First gun on the trailer) and you look at the back of it, theres clan tags, the same as the owner, which his name is seen when he kills someone, Does this mean we get to really MAKE our own gun? Making tags,scopes and R dots? And perhaps camo? I mean,Do we get to go rambo all out? Clan tags on our buttstocks, custom bullets, scopes, and I think it was comfirm that cold blooded and Juggernaut are like a suit, Meaning this will be bad-ass already? Specialist Grundy 22:34, August 21, 2010 (UTC)

I have found the Commando will appear a lot in the story. I think this becuase in 1966 the army bought 2,815 Commandos, and it was used a lot by SOG. Maj. Boner 01:35, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

News
The first entry under the news section states The twitter update really stated the Nazi maps would be included in Hardened and Prestige editions of the game.

 * It was confirmed in a GKNOVA6 thing, GKNOVA6 is affiliated with Treyarch. 14:18, August 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * wasnt the flamethrower also mentioned in that gknova6 thing? and one last thing, the KS-23 is also clearly visible on one of the newest screenshots released. im pretty sure those screenshots were not leaked, so those would proove the ks-23 is in the game even if the leaked videos cant be used as proof Alex dlc 14:25, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

^good point. KS-23/Makarov/WA2000 were legally confirmed by guy from callofduty.de.....(Makarov link) Also Galil was confirmed by me(:D) because of "Prestige Edition Trailer" not any of these leaks.....To sum up, KS-23/Galil should return(Makarov is still there). And I agree with "Wiki Rulers Council" to not add any new info based on any leaks. But there is also a little hole in this way of thinking...:d I mean not to confirm officially...but on a Discussion Page - free-talking cannot be censored IMO. btw.With all of this censorship and licking Activision's ### I feel like I'm in PRP(PRL) or Soviet Union...My toleration of Kotick's and Activision's plans of supreme power and their $-baths has borders...If they break I won't buy any of their games. I'll pirate them:<!!! Morihaus 14:37, August 23, 2010 (UTC)
 * I readded the Galil and KS-23, but did not reference the leaked content nor did I make a page for them. Once we get legit in-game shots of those guns the pages will be remade. Darkman 4 01:07, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

SAS weapons
There has been a lot of speculation that there will be an SAS mission. So I was thinking about what weapons there might be in that mission. I was thinking that the starting weapons would probably be something like the MP5 and the Walther PPK. What do you guys think? --

I think that there will be but there just not tellin us till the game 15:21, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

Why?!?
Why is everybody always talking about Black Ops?   Diante  grassstain     19:17, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

Why are you even asking that and because its cod black ops talk page?Butterball9 00:15, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

Lol? Why would you even ask that!

It's because this is the new CoD game coming out. It's BIG. --Callofduty4 (Talk) 13:19, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Multiplayer section.
Just wanted to point out that the killstreak Arch Angel is still written as Ark Angel in the multiplayer section. Can anyone change this? Ouroboros Omega 01:39, August 24, 2010 (UTC)
 * Fixed. Sorry about that; I thought there was only one time the Arch Angel was mentioned on the page. Darkman 4 06:02, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

This quote
Where it has been confirmed that the guy from the trailer is actually Franks Woods? That balded guy from the Insight should be the guy to say that? Not Woods?

"We live in a world where seeing is not believing." — Frank Woods in the world premier trailer

(Ever121 20:45, August 24, 2010 (UTC))


 * It sounds like Woods, therefore we label it as Woods. 01:34, August 25, 2010 (UTC)


 * So if it sounds like Hitler it should be Hitler? Really you can just write it down and call it a quote, but that doesn't make it the truth. (Ever121 06:56, August 25, 2010 (UTC))

Vehicles
Should we add an "Ingame Vehicles" section? We know there's a Huey, a Hive and a Chinook so far and we might see some ground vehicles on September 1st. General Geers 02:58, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Unless most of them were drivable, I don't think so. Really, they're just props right now and don't warrant a section for itself since the player doesn't interact with them, aside from the Hind. However, what you can do is start the Black Ops vehicle table. I've already started a list and you can build off of that. Chief z 03:14, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Retarded-ass grammar.
'UAV ball'? Seriously? UAV stands for Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, so unless it's a Fallout 3-type Sputnik-bot, then someone needs to change that to 'motion sensor', 'motion mine', or 'sensor ball', because that is an absolutely terrible mangling of the English language. YuriKaslov 07:10, August 25, 2010 (UTC)


 * Fixed. "Retarded-ass grammar" was a perfect description for that. --Callofduty4 (Talk) 13:19, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * Why did someone put UAV ball? That's just stupid. 13:21, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

Sniper Zoom
It says "Click RS to zoom.

That's a crossbow, not a sniper.


 * It could be for the sniper rifles too, but we don't know that. . 20:38, August 25, 2010 (UTC)

This is generic rangefinger sniper scope. It can be attached to any weapon: battle rifle, crossbow, pistol, etc. 05:41, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

we do know that snipers will also have variable zoom. you can see it being done on a dragunov in the trailer for the RC car. so both snipers and crossbows will have variable zoom. Alex dlc 09:38, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

The dive to prone doesn't let you use your weapons just wanted to sayButterball9 16:11, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

He told in another interview that the highest kill streak would be 15! Maybe we should add that as well to the multiplayer info!? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-pRqw6PYSU (possible part 2) Jupitus 17:13, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
