Game developers copy off of game developers.

And it is innovative for the Call of Duty series. Its way more advanced than what Reach is in comparison. There are a lot more statistics to compare between players and the theater is silky smooth.

Max, you know half the things you listed have been done by other games before Halo reach?

he is pointing out stuff that wasn't made widely available/ mainstream since it was executed in the halo series.

Also I don't know the story fully yet it seems like another page right out of Tom Clancy books. That one of my biggest beefs from the MW cod's is that you can find a Tom Clancy book that has the exact same story.. they are as predictable as action movies.

the multi player is always sub par, they seem balanced at first but its quickly realized there are things that are not balanced... it will just take a little time. And honestly if grenade launchers are still in it you can't say its balanced, or anything that was like the p90 or m16 or akimbo....

though competition in the game market is good, it leads to developers doing cool stuff, I find the market is more like this right now: Generic FPS company "HALO AND COD MADE A LOT OF MONEY LET COPY THOSE" Activision's stand on COD "One every year no matter how shitty it is, follow the same pattern and only add minor features to keep up with other more popular titles." COD developers stand point " I DON'T WANT TO GET FIRED" Bungie's stand on games "Hey thats a cool feature lets find a way to implement that in our game. Lets make a game we want to play and others will enjoy it."


I am not even joking these really are there stands on games "well the COD developers one is just what i'd imagine why they still work for activision.

name one Cod (sorry for got that) game before black op's (as I haven't played it) where grenade launchers are balanced... you have to admit akimbo of most weapons was a retarded move, and p90's have always been slightly over powered (though this would be the easiest for them to fix

II Recanz II
11-10-2010, 10:53 PM
No P90s in black ops. :)

And they toned down the M16....BIG time. lol its one of the first weapons you start off with in multiplayer.

However I will agree with you about the grenade launchers. Thankfully, The flak jacket perk now protects you from nades more effectively then the MW2 version. So if your someone who hates those gosh-darn noobtoobers, I think flak jacket is for you. :)

Also scavenger WILL NOT replenish Grenade Launcher ammo anymore. After all of the complaints Activision received from MW2, they decided to only allow you only two shots per assault rifle.

so out of 10 how good is this game?

II Recanz II
11-10-2010, 11:41 PM
9 or 9.5.

My opinion, they managed to balance alot of things that MW2 didn't, and have made the game a whole lot more simpler. Noob-toobing is no longer a major issue, # of perks have been toned down, and the game now has a currency system that works just like the one Reach has (except the money for this one goes towards everything, not just your appearance).

And the story...

I was literally blown away by how my emotions were played in this game. I don't want to give away any spoilers, but trust me when I say that this is probably hands down one of the best Call of Duty Campaigns Ive seen.

I loved those numbers. It was cool because when your in the chair you can see the numbers floating around the room and during the campaign you'll hear the "broadcast" and the numbers repeating over and over again.

This game is very user friendly in Multiplayer with multiple customization options. It really went above and beyond the call of duty (pun intended) and the multiplayer is a lot of fun to play. I like the layering options for your emblem and such.

This is a great game you guys ow haven't picked it up go now. And everyone who worries about noob toobs they suck in this game seriously they pretty nerfed. Also that akimbo shotgun isnt good at all it take forever to kill someone with it. The only thing overpowered I can think of is the knife, they have the same range as MW2 but other then that its perfect. Also if you like campaigns this is the best COD campaign to date. And zombies are back and they are hard as fuck to survive through. I give this game a 9.5 to 10 in my opinion.

9/10 Would Rage again.

Seriously ALOT of those "features" were before Halo to begin with, let alone Call of Duty (btw, Call of Duty 1 had map voting, just an example).

Personally, I enjoyed the single player campaign. It was definitely a different take on things. I also played through the game just to get to story elements. Zombies mode is awesome, like it was in World at War. It is better this time around even. As for the multiplayer, I just can't get into it. It's the same bullshit in Modern Warfare, which is the reason I stopped playing. I wanted to enjoy it, but I just can't. I get more frustrated playing it then enjoying it.

All in all, it is a good package for people who enjoy all aspects of the game. Myself? I would have been better off if it was a $30-40 game. Multiplayer just killed it for me, even with this "features" they added. It's the same gun-play as Modern Warfare 2.

Well the story is good, but the campaign parts just irritated me.
I don't need to see someone nearly die by dangling off a cliff, only to be barely rescued, just in the nick of time by someone else grabbing their hand.
It got old. Really fast.

It seems like they tried REALLY hard to be epic. Explosions everywhere! Going through rat tunnels! The pickaxe guy!
and so many, many more.

And to be honest, it came off as unprofessional and less like artful; which is what a good campaign should be, and mutated into a cheesy action movie.

Multiplayer is much improved. The elimination of stopping power and nerfing kill-streaks has done wonders.

My point: credit is not given properly. Sorry I just fuckin hate fanboys. No offence holmes.

I didn't find I died a lot in MW2, there was only the one part when you stormed the white house where I died a lot and that was mostly because I kept getting picked off by snipers.

and the problem with action movies is, they are all the same.... "Guy meets girl guy pisses off organization (or girl betrays guy because she pissed off organization) guy goes get girl." The war movies are often "guy fights war, almost dies a lot, guy wins war and/or dies".

11. Being Fun (Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, Halo: Wars, Halo: Reach)
12. Putting stuff on your gun, as in Clan Tags and Emblems. (ORIGINAL! DING! DING! DING! WINNER!!!1!!)


This pisses me off more then anything in the entire, if things were not used from other games that people like then guess what?! People wouldn't have a wide selection of games to play...

Another thing character customizations came from Vegas and other games.... Halo stole the idea along with others.

The Emblems were not stole from Reach if you think so then you are retarded their are far more emblems in BO then any Halo games.

On top of that Reach and BO were developed at pretty much the same time and all of those ideas were pretty much asked for by the community...... So you lose and you lose hard another thing BO did with World Map is showing where its night and where its day.

People said the same thing about Reach (that it copied ideas...which it did), but none the less I told those people off too.....

I know halo was not the first game to use most of these thing but when they used something they used it differently than other studios/ games. Often COD games just flat out copy and paste it and then throw in one or two shiny new things about it.

You poor child. You really think that the game will be CHEAPER a month after release, especially that less? It is activision and Microsoft we are talking about here...
And during CHRISTMAS? The time when the American economy is the most active?
Then you should have a mental reassessment, or, realize you'll probably only save $5 at most, and have to wait in possibly a huge line depending on when you buy iy.

What makes you think it will drop to that price range?

http://i39.photobucket.com/albums/e166/Metkil/mw2cheap.png

That was taken today right off Steam. Most other stores are at the same price (only exception I have seen so far was Wal-Mart having a "Sale" on the PC version for $40.)

Activision is a bunch of greedy bastards that will refuse to drop the price. What makes you think this will be any different. More so now, since it has been deemed the most successful entertainment launch?

Your best bet for this game cheap? Used copy.

you realize MS has no say in the price right? only the publisher & retail store does, Activision sells it to the distributer for 50-60$ and then the retail medium wants a profit so they charge 10$ more...

Really I don't? Cause you have proved nothing to say I'm wrong. And you didn't quote me saying that these two games Black Ops and Reach were developed roughly at the same time. Reach hadn't announced a thing it was using this year. Treyarch wouldn't just stop all it had been making for the past year and say oh fuck all of our ideas Halo is using it. The fucking community wanted those things and few things they would add to be better, BO currency system is nothing like Reach's and nothing like CS's because you can't just buy any weapon you have to level first.

I'm not one to feed trolls, but here go's.

First off, yes Treyarch did mimic a lot of items as seen in other games, but they really expanded upon them in a great way.

Credit System: This is similar to Halo: Reach, but the stuff that you buy actually benefits you in some way. There are multiple attachments for every gun to choose from and you can now purchase perks rather than waiting to level up in order to unlock. The contract system is very cool, you buy a contract and once you complete you earn more money. They allow you to change up your play style in order to complete and do something different.

Customization: Depending on the which perk you choose for "Perk 1" your character will change how he looks. Player emblem creation are reminiscent of how Forza lets you design your own car. You get 11 Layers in total to do what ever you want to them. It allows players now to show how creative they can be and that way you don't see similar emblems being used over and over again. You can also place your emblem on your gun along with your Clan tag which is something I've always wanted in a game. It gives you a sense of "This is my own unique gun." The camo system is a lot better this time around as you can now buy them rather than unlocking them by getting headshots with a certain weapon. You can also choose what your reticule will appear like when using a red dot attachment as well as what color it will be. Treyarch made this game very user friendly and giving gamers much more creative freedom.


The amount of stats that you can check out between your friends is very staggering compared to most games. The in game friends list shows up rather fast and it is very silky smooth when scrolling through it. The map of the world from Halo is in this game as well, but they show were the sun is located (one country will be a lighter shade then the other) which is downright awesome.

And one of the features that blew my mind was when your in a party chat and your friends are talking, a speech bubble appears on the screen while playing. It also shows you talking which is awesome, you can see what I'm talking about in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nJkXfH52RA

Treyarch allows you to upload videos to their site (ala bungie) and you can link your youtube account where it will automatically upload the video for you. They can only be 30 second clips, but its a nice, free feature that takes the hassle out of using a capture card. Theater mode is silky smooth especially when fast forwarding compared to the slow as balls theater mode in Halo: Reach.

Treyarch really expanded upon some ideas that we have seen in their previous CoD games as well as other games. They did a great job with it and I hope that other games copy off what Treyarch has done to make the Multiplayer much more user friendly.

I love Hacker Pro. I also have Steady Aim pro and Ghost pro. Steady Aim pro works well with me because I always aim down the sights when in a battle and be able to do it faster gives me more of an advantage.

Ghost pro is there because I don't have to worry about spy planes or sr-71's. I use Hacker so I can see where enemy sentries or sam turrets or equipment are hidden. The hacking ability is awesome to use.
