Day 3 Footage

[chopoff]

Has it been said if COD casting is uploadable or is it just live?

I mean if you can upload a full game to YouTube sales of HD PVRs and similar devices are gonna take a mega dive!

[Bester]

It's not been said specifically, but from the comments I can't imagine that you WON'T be able to upload it somehow. Whether that's all the way through to You Tube, or just up to Elite, or some 'in game' system, I'm not sure.

After watching the footage from the first three days, I think by the time I get the game I'm going to be sick of Cargo, Aftermath and Yemen already!

Nuketown Zombies according to their Facebook page

[Bester]

Great news - Nuketown is the simplistic kind of map that made zombie mode great to begin with.

Hated BlOps zombie maps - most of them were too big, overcomplicated, confusing and little fun.

[OMTT]

There's a photo on the Blops 2 Facebook page with 2 of the Treyarch team standing with what looks like a care package & an announcement to be made tonight/tomorrow our time. A lot of speculation it will be the prestige edition with a RC dragonfly

So, due to the youtube clips i found myself kind of looking forward to this game.

But last night i stuck on Blops, (ps3) and i was shocked at how bad it runs. I'd forgot how awful it was. That juddering as you turn? I'd forgot about it. The lag that seemingly only occurs when you have a gun on gun situation? I'd forgot about that too.

I hope to god Black Ops 2 is not like that. I may leave it a few days and see what people are saying before i buy. If i see the same "ps3 users ripped off" crap in reviews, i'll probably give it a miss.

Never thought i'd say it. I was glad to get back to MW3: Wonky spawn edition.

it plays ok for me maybe your broadband sucks

Have to say, the 360 version, for me at least, has probably been the most stable of any CoD title that I've played. Runs like a dream.

Every other game works fine. I think you're just used to it.

Played Blops last night and was been outgunned by mp5's from distance vs an AUG

Stupid lag every now and again, people running around with sniper rifles and those that play domination as if its team deathmatch, I've just taken Blops 2 off pre order now. Gonna avoid the Call of duty series from now on and focus on other games in the future.

I was on the fence about this, i'd had enough Cod and could easily wait a while for Black Ops 2 to go cheap

then they announce this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0WmtG...has_verified=1

And suddenly i want the care package edition, no i need the care package edition it will go nicely with my NVGs and my RC-XD

its just the same as all the other COD's for me

[vagbreath]

That Care Package Edition looks sweet as, but I read somewhere that it's $180 and I really can't justify paying that much I'll probably just end up getting the Hardened Edition.

That equates to around £115 .... using today's conversion rates ex tax.

So it is not really that bad for what you get IMO.

Same here black ops 2 on the ps3 runs ok, no lag...so when players are getting lag, it must be your broadband, and Im on 60mb

[shabbaf13]

Hi guys

Have had a look around and it seems that only GAME are selling the care package edition

http://www.game.co.uk/webapp/wcs/sto...ckops2editions

Dunno if anyone else can find it elsewhere...

[blitzben85]

Think i'll just pick up the hardend edition, i don't care for the firefly or care package box and everything else comes with hardend.

[Bester]

Interesting.

Both Hardened and Care Package editions confirm Nuketown 2025 and Zombie Nuketown. Pre-orders get Nuketown 2025, but what about Zombie Nuketown? Don't really feel like stumping up £80 for the HE when the only thing in it, that I want, that may be above and beyond pre-ordering the regular edition, is the Zombie Nuketown map......

[chopoff]

Apparently no Elite bundled as it'll make sense when they reveal what they're doing with it this year...

Interestingly, £59.99 at GAME for the Hardened Edition says to me no DLC will come with it, ever.

Not quite sure Nuketown zombies and a soundtrack is worth £20.

The Care Package edition is not bad value, as quad rotor RC helicopters aren't cheap. But granted normally have a camera on and can be controlled by phones/tablets. I doubt this does.

[blitzben85]

If i was 17 years old again i would pick up the care package edition, the firefly looks fun...for 5 mins but i just want the bloody game and Nuketown 2025.

[Bester]

Yeah, it's looking like the standard version of the game for me I think.

[Delboy219]

I want the Nuketown maps too, but we all know for a fact if we pay extra for these editions we'll regret it.

All you hear after Cod games are released, is Hardened edition customers complaining, cos it's hard to get a match on maps that only a few people bothered buying.

[Bester]

Yep - the W@W zombie maps in the BlOps HE were great, except that you couldn't find matches until they were released to the community as part of the final DLC release about 8/9 months later. Yaaaaay.......

[NightHawk123]

Getting the standard edition too. Not letting Activision getting anymore of my money and if I'm desperate to want to play nuketown I'll just pop in BO1 again-no biggie. They'll probably release these maps later anyway.

Re the care package edition - thought this was an 18 rated game. Why would I want a toy helicopter. But then again COD is aimed at the little kiddies who want to 360 quickscope all the time isn't it...
