Call of Duty: Black Ops

Black Ops 2 To Get Proper Announcement in May?
Written Thursday, April 19, 2012 By Lee Bradley
View author's profile

Here’s a image that points heavily towards the industry’s worst secret. The next Call of Duty game will probably be a direct follow-up to Black Ops and it’s likely to be unveiled on 2nd May.

The image shows the date alongside the tagline “Return for debriefing." Black Ops famously featured a storyline that focused on a debriefing during which the player would flashback to key moments in the story’s overarching conspiracy.

In addition to this, the background image features a man with a gun. Black Ops had a man with a gun.

Acquired by Kotaku, the promo image is from a retail source. It seemingly confirms what we’ve known for some time thanks to a series of leaks and rumours. We’ll know for sure in May.

Hopefully this will be a damn sight better than the original Black Ops! And here's hoping they ditch the zombie mode in favour of a better and longer campaign!

@1 wouldn't mind if they got rid of zombies for more campaign but it's not going to happen.

I won't be buying the next/future treyarch games. To me Black Ops was the worst COD experience to date. Add onto that the seeming beta testing of Elite, and any future COD games are a no go for my money.

I gave up on Call Of Duty a long time ago. When they actually make another new game in the series (instead of just rehashing the previous game with no real changes) I'll consider buying into the series again. I'll take the original Call Of Duty over ANY of the recent games any day.

Well, me not being a hater and all - and not posting on COD news like most haters (for whatever reason they may have) am looking forward to a new Zombie experience. I'm sorry that not everyone enjoys this franchise, but I'm going to buy it if it seems like a great game. And yes I'm a Battlefield,F.E.A.R, Resident Evil, Socom blah blah blah player. I don't have any bias and I know when I enjoy a game. I don't need to join no bandwagon filled with haters just so they spread word of a "horrible game" which will, once again, hit #1 on sales. It's inevitable. And I'm sure most of us here will buy it either way, even though you enjoy bashing it so much.

@7 The CoD series isn't "horrible", people are just rightfully sick and tired of them basically releasing the same game over and over again with a different paintjob...me included.

@3 http://www.ign.com/ - this is the site for you and your comments.

I enjoyed Black Ops' story and will enjoy playing through another exciting campaign. I probably won't get it this year though, other games will take priority and I need a new PS3. I'll wait for a price drop.

As soon as its available for pre-order, its getting pre-ordered! Black Ops is one of the better COD's, more fun online, really enjoyed the campaign and zombies is freaking amazing! Please bring back Sticks n' Stones!

@12 Actually, I haven't bought a Call Of Duty game since Modern Warfare 2, because I was so massively disappointed by that. I used to love the series, but I'm not paying £45-50 for their latest game when, content-wise, it's basically a rehash of the previous title(s) in my mind. Maybe a lot of these people are two faced, but I'm certainly not.

really? that's the so-called "leaked" picture? of all the photoshop pics i've seen, this is the most amateurish, hands down.

Regardless, to quote 69% of the CoD "community", "ZOMBIES!!!"

Only reason I got black ops was cuz I skipped out on W@W zombies. If they make the campaign better and have more then 2 zombie maps on disk (dead ops arcade didnt count) then I would consider buying it.

I'll sell you my black ops one for the same price as black ops 2, it'll essentially be the same game.

I wouldn't mind if they ditched the whole campaign and multiplayer, just to focus on zombies. It's all I play on BO anyway.

If they must insist on there being a zombie mode, please make it a free DLC so that its trophies don't affect getting the platinum.

@ 1, 2.

This is the first time I log in to the main page to give two thumbs down, one for each. Congrats, you were the first!

There BETTER be zombie mode. Zombie is what sets Treyarch from other COD developers. They know it's a selling point and even non-MP gamers buy the DLC to get new Zombie maps.

Really? "In addition to this, the background image features a man with a gun. Black Ops had a man with a gun."

Last time I checked every fucking shooter has a damm 'gun' on the cover. Step up the reporting quality, please.

Guys, it's not Black Ops 2.
The background image features a man with a gun. Black Ops had a man with FOUR guns. Lol.

Hope for a story like Black Ops - this far it was the best one. But Treyarch can not handle the multiplayer.

I'll probably buy it to play with friends some time, but if no ones online, I'll probably just abandon it like did with MW3.

I can't wait for more zombies!!!! (should it return anyways, but let's face it, it IS going to return) First thing I'm gonna do on the new maps is find out what new guns there are and where they are and find where the secret easter egg song is :D

As long as they keep having zombies, I am in and I always will be. I occasionally like playing some domination or death match with my friends, but zombies is where its at. Single most re playable stuff on all of online gaming.IMHO of course. I hope the zombies has no affiliation with that ELITE garbage! Please!

If this is a good game I will buy it. Just like @7 mentioned, I buy games that are fun, doesn't matter if other people hate them, or if they are similar to the predecessor. Zombies is amazing, and if this has good zombies, I am already sold.

I miss the days of the WWII COD games, maybe it's just a preference of the time period and the weapons they used? I dunno, either way, I will have to give MW3 and Black Ops 2 a chance once I've finished the long list of games I have on my plate. I find it pointless to bitch about a game before it's even released. To all the people bitching about COD for whatever reason(s): Use your heads and RENT it before paying the full retail price... at least decide if you like it or hate it AFTER playing it for a bit before jumping to final opinion.

Me and my friends have been playing COD for a while on this generation, and I have to say I doubt we will be picking this up, the series has grown samey and MW3 is more than sufficient to play every now and again so we wont need to purchase Black Ops 2. Max Payne 3 will be where most of my time goes, that looks like some great online gameplay!
