So the time has come it looks like where information (leaked) for next blockbuster Call of duty game has started.

3...2...1... LET THE HYPE BEGIN

What we know (kinda) 100% chance there will be Call Of Duty 9 in November 2011.

Title: Black Ops 2 (rumoured)
Date: 6th November (rumoured)

"Leaked" Black Ops 2 Multiplayer Information

• RC XD will not return
• Heat vision is a new Pointstreak reward. When you get the required points, you can activate this Pointstreak and your player pulls out a scope and attaches it to your weapon. This scopes main advantage is its ability to detect enemies through most walls. Note, the scope can only be attached to primaries not including shotguns

• Appearance is a combination of all perks and type of Pointstreak being used.

Hardcore

• Larger emphasis on hardcore than ever before
• No grenade launchers
• Only vehicle guided rocket launchers permitted
• Respawn timings decreased (for most modes)
• 1 bullet in the foot will no longer kill a person, a head or chest shot is usually required.
• A person will now bleed out if severely injured.

Perk System 2.0

• The Perk Pro system has been upgraded
• There is now 2 options a perk can advance to.
• Both require different challenges to unlock
• Once the desired Pro version is unlocked, the player can select that as their "Perk Pro".
• Once selected, the only way to choose the other option is by entering prestige mode.
• For example Perk slot 1 has the perk called Speed
• Speed - Reduces the time taken to aim down the sight. Pro I - Swaps weapons faster. Pro II - Throws equipment faster

Combat Training

• Will be returning with vast improvements.
• Difficulty is no longer based on how long the bots take to start shooting.
• Bots now have an advance AI system
• Similar to the behaviour seen in the MW3 Spec Ops survival

This is where we can discuss rumours and what we want to see in the next COD

[Speedloafer]

That list is basically the general complaint list of BLOPS,MW2 and MW3. Is this confirmed? On first look id say its fake, it just seems very detailed. Hope im wrong though.

Also did you put the 9 in the title?

[Jay-Cee]

I like the idea of capturing enemy flag is worth 2 points. Rewarding those who go out to play

[Monkey Munch]

I bought my last COD last year ... what a horrible, horrible mess of a game I once dearly loved.

For a game that generates so much revenue it was just so stupidly broken that honestly ...well... I just can't understand why anyone else would even be thinking of buying this one ....

Even now after x number of months the online is shoddy at best and at worst unplayable

Just how much longer can Bobby K keep pushing the same old stuff at us before he drives the franchise into the ground like so many others at Activision ....

I'm intrigued as to why anyone else would even start to get excited about BO2?

[NightHawk123]

I will be avoiding this like the plague. If the rumours of a new game engine are to be true then its even more likely that it will have mega problems at the start.

if you are going to buy this I suggest avoiding the PS3 version as that is more of a beta than the xbox 360 is at launch.

Funny how they are naming everything ... 2.0- like they have run out of ideas to entice people already.

[CJClarke]

Undecided as to whether i'll be buying this, i enjoyed MW3's single player, but i've barely touched the multiplayer (despite also having an Elite sub which i wish i hadn't bought...). I just can't find any enthusiasm to play it anymore, and considering i thought that Black Ops had a terrible campaign i can't see me being overly interested in a Black Ops 2.

[grps3]

who care whats in it... everyone including me will buy it anyway

not liking the sound of the way the perks work though, im not a huge player and most ive ever prestiged is 3 times...
i like trying all classes/perks etc but you have to prestige to use pro 2 if you already used pro 1

so if u prestige and dont like pro2 ...do u have to prestige again to get pro 1 back? seems a bit dumb to me

and the speed example ... both version of pro would have their uses in certain game types , so you should be able to choose either without having to prestige

[grps3]

and hope the swan dives , wager matches , and decoy grenades make a return......and zombies

[Bester]

Zombies will be back. Guaranteed.

I'll probably get it, but it'll most likely be the last time. If next year is back to IW then I won't touch it with a bargepole.

I'll get BlOps2 as BlOps on the 360 at least was incredibly stable, especially when compared with MW2 and MW3.

Decoys? Really, they suck! I don't think I fooled anyone with them.

[He4rt]

Decoy grenades had their use. They were brilliant for when the opponent had a blackbird up as they would just show up loads of arrows on the enemies screen. I use to have a class set up with them just for the blackbirds alone.

For me, they were too obvious as they bounced around. If they stayed more central to one spot they might work. It is far too easy to spot that its a decoy on the radar.

[Delboy219]

It's impossible to get excited for this. Even if it does have new Zombie modes, because they ran out of ideas for that last time around (Moon, did you play that more than twice?)

I'm probably done with Cod. If i feel like playing, i have Cod4, WaW, MW2, Blops and MW3.

I've paid my dues.

Unless Blops 2 turns out to be amazing, i'm done.

[Bester]

^^ I largely hated the BlOps zombie maps. The only decent ones were Five, and Call of the Dead. The rest were terrible. Over-complicated rubbish. The W@W maps, running on BlOps were much better.

This.

Might get it once the problems are ironed out and it's cheap at the turn of the new year.

Lag comp is another reason to avoid. Looks like it's here to stay to cater to the dial-up connections.

+1 from me.

I was a big, big Cod fan but nothing comes close to 4 and I dont even know what that last offering was. I bought MW3 on launch day and I played it for about a week. I got BF3 which I thought was better but it is a different game but now I am playing Forza 4 and I will be for the forseeable future, I am simply bored of 1st person shooters.

But the last Cod was terrible.

With Hitman and the prospect of a great Assassins Creed around the same time, Blops 2 is the last thing on my mind.

* Map design and size will be following Black Ops not Modern Warfare 3

I might not trade it in 2 weeks after i buy it this year then.

You're joking, right? I still see places charging full price for Modern Warfare 1, i highly doubt that the new one will drop in price by new year.

There were places doing MW3 for £25 on HUKD.

[gillyallan]

MW3 is £25 in our Morrisons just now, not that I'd buy it.

[Bester]

On the bright side, BlOps 2 would be extremely hard pushed to be any worse than MW3.
