Call of Duty: Black Ops II

Call of Duty: Black Ops II Confirmed, Coming in November
Written Friday, April 27, 2012 By Lee Bradley
View author's profile

We all knew it, but the cat is well and truly out of the bag now. Black Ops II has been confirmed as the next Call of Duty game and it’s coming out in November.

There have been a million hints, rumours and leaks in recent weeks, all alluding to Black Ops II, but the image of a Target pre-order card obtained by IGN has confirmed not only the game's title, but its release date too.

The pre-order card shows that the game will hit on the 13th November 2012, which is the day of a solar eclipse, hence the “Eclipse” marketing material Activision has quietly been distributing.

So there you have it. Expect a proper reveal on May 1st. Boom?

Usually.. I'm all for "each for their own." b-b-but COD is so shite! I hope it fails and gives other devs a chance to market decent games! D:

Don't think I'll go for this one until its cheap since I like how Activision does more than treyarch. Most people probably will disagree but just me

I dont get it, if you dont like it then dont play it, why every single cod related thread has to be full of haters, I havent played it for months and I surely dont consider it the perfect game either but why comment something you dont like in the first place?

It is that awful "don't like it don't buy it" argument or in this case don't play it. Stop trying to exempt it from criticism with that awful argument.

I'm down for whatever. But what I think is lame is how people will say "another same old CoD expansion meh" - but then when they unveil a futuristic laser beam riddled game - those same complainers will say "wtf - why did they change it assholes meh".

Make up your fucking minds, kids.

I'm not hating whatsoever.. getting involded in a "healthy" debate ;) Gaming to me is all about passion and bringing something new to the table! And of course FUN! COD is dry in all them departments "Roll me in sum flour, biatch!" But yet it managed to get 5/5 in all the newpapers,magazines over here in the UK! I don't understand? I'll admit that I bought some of the games..(on hype) total mistake! Yea.. if you want to keep buying them thats totally upto you, I'm not going to question your desicion! But remember thats another £40 in some fat business mans pocket, who probably doesn't give a monkeys about you! It's a brand now.. not a game.. makes me sick!

It's because they're mediocre games that are hugely popular and are churned out like Big Macs at McDonald's. They have a lot of appeal to casual gamers because of the simplistic and easy gameplay both online and off. So it gets a lot of negative attention from the hardcore crowd.

I enjoy the annual CoD campaign when I've got nothing else to play. I thought Black Ops was the best of them by far so I'm sure I'll be playing this one eventually.

Also it is absurd that you ask why does someone comment on something they don't like. In other words you think no one is allowed to criticize anything.

They actually do reskin and rebox their game every year with little to no innovation. If they added in lazers and futuristic setting then it would probably be just as bad as past CoDs but this time it has lazers. If they actually changed it for the better we would be skeptical at first but if it was that much better we would probably like it

I don't know why you're making up shit to try and make it seem like CoD gets unneeded hate

@16 I find criticism fine, after a game is released surely there are people o like it and people dont like it, now this is a thread for a soon to be game and withinin this thread alone ,I´ve seen people saying it will go wrong even without seing any kind of evidence, just because they didnt like the previous games, that doesnt make sence to me..aw and fyi I dont know if there are prefix arguments for everything but when I dont like a game, I simply move along instead of complaining, thats what I just do and it works fine for me and many people I guess

you know why CoD's shit?
because it's not based on WWII or WWI anymore.
They need to go back to their roots and make a WWII-based CoD again.
Then, and only then, will I buy a Call of Duty game.

Hopefully they don't make the PS3 version a crappy port this time. Not that I care that much, I'll probably just rent it eventually. Havn't even gotten to MW3 because I have the feeling I've already played it.

If they confirm zombies, and the its closer to Black Ops than MW3 in play style, then I might pick this up. I guess I'm on the other side of that fence in saying BO > MW3.

Fck this shit, hope it nosedives off a very high cliff with nothing but rock below....metaphorically speaking. I think i'd prefer a game to have 3 years lifespan than just 12 months before it's dumped by the game makers for the next far from improved model.

You know what? I've seen and fired so many damn weapons in my time that it's getting very boring.

GIVE ME A CARROT!!! I WANT TO FIRE AN ASSAULT CARROT. I WANT TO MELEE SOMEONE WITH A CAKE, OBSCURE THEIR VISION BEFORE RAMMING MY CARROT DOWN THEIR THROAT AND FIRING OFF A WHOLE MAGAZINE OF BABY CARROTS THROUGH THE ROOF OF THEIR MOUTH.
Now that's what i'm talking about.

And don't get me started on game DLC's: Missing missions, dead DLC Map Packs and online passes....you GREEEEDY BASTARDS!!! lol

I used to be a COD hater myself.. but think about it.. Why would a company stop making something that is keeping them on top? It may be a copy and paste game, but it put money in their company. So everybody, stop hating on COD cause it making money off of kids and speical ED people who like buying the same thing over and over each year. Yeah, and this coming from a former COD hater himself. Shut the hell up and don't buy the game if you don't like it. Simply! But guys, guess what? After this one there gonna be another one and another one.. get use to it

As a Gamestop employee, I like to look at the rest of the year before the next Call of Duty as a yearly tax season and I'm working for a tax company.

It gets busier, ESPECIALLY near the date of the release (which you could look at it as our "April 15th"), but it brings in easy business and easy pre-order numbers. Practically from the beginning it's available for pre-order to the day before its release is it easy to rake in those numbers.

Since I haven't played a COD game since MW2 (which I was disappointed with, despite the fact I liked MW), so I never tried Black Ops, I've heard nothing but negativity about it from people I know, but I like having a bit of variety in my games (by that I mean variety in genre), and I currently don't have any FPS games.

So this is my question to all of the COD fans, was Black Ops any good, or should I just pick up MW again?

When I get more info, I'll decide whether or not to get Black Ops II, at the moment it's on my "undecided" list due to having practiacally no info besides the title.

At this rate CoD will overtake final fantasy number wise, what we on now CoD 9?
It's took final fantasy what 20 years to do 14 installments? And activision is creeping up on that number in 6 years.

Sequels = call of duty, final fantasy.

Prequels = god of war.

Eh what next? It's fun i gotta admit but stop rehashing/reboxing the game with little tweaks and such. Tried and tested it does work but it's not going to work long enough before people realize it's the same stuff over and over and over again.

Don't buy this shit, i really regret buying Black Ops. It was a fucking disgrace with it's PS2 like graphics and game physics, it was an experiment by them to see that if they threw shit pie on your plate whether you would lap it up....well alot of people did and no surprise they got a bad taste in their mouth.

MW3 will be my last online shooter, not got it yet. MW1 may have brought some credibility to gaming but it came at a price: Domination of the online shooter with no great variety of any worth to rival it. Online Uncharted is just average, Bioshock was just a bad idea, Assassins Creed is fucking appalling!!! Battlefield Bad Company 2 for me is just fun, Battlefield 3 was Dice's version of shit pie.

Missing missions, dead DLC Map Packs, online passes, Elite memberships....wow gaming innovation has never looked so promising :)

I think this might be the first COD game i don't buy. Such a shame to see how the series has gone downhill since COD4, which is probably my favorite game to date. COD4 stayed in my console for about 6 months solid, no other game even came off my shelf. I play MW2 for about 8 days play time, W@W was decent buy laggy, Black ops i played for about a days play time (crashed my PS3 50+ times) and MW3 i think I've only played for about 10 hours.

I know everyone does the 'rah rah i'm not buying this crap!' but I've genuinely lost interest now. The games are stale and half-assed, and really do COD4 an injustice. Game developers with passion should have boosted off from the success of COD4, with the opportunity of a huge player base, but instead money hungry businessman have sucked it dry just for some extra dollars.

So funny seeing all the comments from the haters. Tell me something why is COD 4 better than any other COD? Is it because its so easy to get 40+ kills every match? Every COD since COD 4 has got gradually better, Black Ops being the most entertaining online in my opinion!

Black Ops 2 will break records again, and the minority of haters will end up buying it anyway!

@ #52

COD 4 was the most balanced of all of the COD games (of the new generation) - balanced as in there was nothing in it really that overpowered something else in the game. The story was the best (although WAW was pretty good) The game was not built around kill streaks like MW2, they complimented the game, they weren't THE game. The levels for multiplayer were the best, they even knew this in MW2 and that is why a lot of the DLC was adding in levels from COD 4. It was the first so it remains ingrained in people's minds as being the near perfect game it was, before the rest of the COD games came along trying to add to a near perfect formula. I could go into more detail about the balance, guns, perks, kill streaks ect. but it isn't really necessary.

#55 that what I'm saying. I used to go around on the forums and try to make people not buy COD. But once, I played MW2, Blacks Ops and MW3 I found out these games are still fun. Yeah, it may be a copy and paste series but it still getting money. Black Ops 2 will set the tone again just like the others did. So please, stop with "BF 3 is better" or " This game gonna suck" bs.

a new cod every year is getting a bit boring. there is no imagination to these games anymore. assassins creed is beginning to do the same.

yea these companys want to continue bringing out games to rake in good amounts of cash. but perhaps if they release a lengthy and decent DLC they would be better off.

@52 It couldn't have anything to do with the fact that IW brought innovation to the Call of Duty series by mixing interesting and fluid gameplay with a fun and skill-based multiplayer, could it? CoD4 (and it's clone WaW) were the best because they were pure and untainted. CoD wasn't "the" game when CoD4 came out, but CoD4 made CoD "the" game series it is today. Everything after was a sad attempt to recreate CoD4 but trying to mix new aspects like Pro Perks and selectable killstreaks.

And Treyarch, why you disappoint? Black Ops II? Just...no. Iron Wolf? Eclipse? Why did you pick such an awful name?

"inserts copy and paste joke"

The sad part is if they actually spent the time to develop the games 2-4 years instead of anywhere between 8-11 months it could be a decent series, but I'm not going to be suckered into buying a copy and paste of a copy and paste repeating.

@70 It's not 8-11 months to develope a COD game Because IW do one every 2 years and so do Treyarch.

COD 2 = IW
COD 3 = TREYARCH
COD 4 MW = IW
COD WAW = TREYARCH
COD MW2 = IW
COD BLACK OPS = TREYARCH
COD MW3 = IW
COD BLACK OPS II = TREYARCH

I admit they don't change much in the games but when one company churns out their version of COD, they have 2 years till it's their turn again.

A surprise to absolutely no one. Although I'm still curious to see what the hell from the first game they thought left enough material open for a sequel.

@6 Because for some of us we'd like to think that the people who put in the most effort deserve the bigger sales and while we're not saying the guys who actually make the Call Of Duty games don't make any effort their forced into making games that do nothing new for the industry.

At the same time these games still gain a huge amount of sales and other titles such as Bioshock which offer a lot more and are able to push the boundaries of what we can do in games are just ignored. All the great original titles might as well have never been released when COD comes out. If Infinity Ward, Sledgehammer games or even Treyarch were given even an ounce of creative freedom, the games could be so much better.

I can't believe that so many people hate these games when each one breaks records. Most of the opinions about CoD are so extreme. It's either "OMG. These games are so gay. It's always reboxed crap! I hate it so much. Never ever gonna play it." or "OMG. I HAVE to get to 15th prestige! *sinks 100+ hours into multiplayer*". If you don't like it, that's fine. Just trade it in and get something you will enjoy. You don't have to bitch and moan on every website everytime there's some news about it.

If you like COD great, if you hate it, fine. everyone is entitled to their opinion. personally i play them but try to buy them when their cheap. The main problem with COD is that its expected every year on roughly the same day so therefore theres not enough time to make the game as good as it SHOULD be by now. they need to take more time and put more effort in, then everyone would be satisfied. it is pretty much the same thing every year ands thats good for the casual players and COD elitist's but bad for the hardcore players. its also bad for the industry in a way, if they keep doing so well year after year by doing little in the way of innovation we will see less new IP's as the companies will start to think "we need to just make something that people are used to and expect" instead of trying new things. My hat goes off to companies like Irrational Games(2K Boston), they released Bioshock in 2007, gave 2k Marin the lead on Bioshock 2(which still wasn't a same day next year release) and have been working on Bioshock Infinite for 5 years which looks amazing. Companies like Irrational deserve praise much more than Treyarch do. I've been gaming for 24 years and im looking forward to the next 24, that'll be when Black Ops 14 comes out, right? :p

oh and @70, Treyarch and IW used to work together to make each COD, its just IW had the lead on the better COD's(as COD is IW) and Treyarch lead on the silly attempts at blockbuster movie style COD's, so it is 8-11months really.

Jesus guys calm down! call of duty sells for a reason, because it's addictive & well made! you guys can't even design a web page let alone an entire game! don't like it don't play it. This will sell a bazillion copies & your moaning won't change that, I hope call of duty keeps on going as long as it stays away from the subscription based system ala world of warcraft. which will happen soon, so why not just enjoy it while it's free to play?

I don't even know why I'm going to try, but whatever, here it goes. I'll add my two cents.

I actually like Treyarch, for the most part. They listen to fans and get things changed (again, for the most part). Look at Black Ops 1. AK-74u got nerfed a bit because people thought it was too powerful. Killing someone in Last Stand gave you an assist, instead of the kill, if you were not the person who downed them, because people wanted it changed. Treyarch also somewhat took down the knifing range as well, because the fans were tired of getting lunged at because of MW2. I feel that Treyarch really does try to please the fans, but Black Ops had more problems than just balance issues. Sadly, it had major hit detection and lag issues. I say sadly because, aside from the FAMAS and AUG, the game was pretty balanced. Also the maps weren't TOO bad. They weren't great, but they weren't horrible.

As much as I hate to say it, I MIGHT actually give Black Ops 2 a chance if players say the hit detection has been fixed. Treyarch would just lie about it being fixed. Also I might give Black Ops 2 a chance if they bring back bots and make them more human-like. It was fun grabbing a friend or two and taking on a whole team full of 8 bots seeing if you'd win, but the whole bots aimbotting you through walls wasn't cool. lol

I guess it doesn't matter how many times I say it. Regardless of someone's opinion on this issue the "don't like it don't buy/play it" argument is stupid. People are going to criticize the game. Whether it's legitimate criticism or not is open to debate but using don't like it don't play it is an awful counter argument that is used mostly by fanboys in an attempt to exempt something from criticism.

Also using the "you can't do it as well as the developers argument" is just as stupid. Just because most people can't design a web page or develop games doesn't mean that people can't criticize the people that do design them. If everyone thought that way then no one would ever criticize anything.

With all the hate going on in the comments I'm only going to say one thing. None of the call of duty series has had an original idea since the first modern warfare. its the same class, perks, and leveling type system. If they could branch out away from that than I'd have some respect. Or if Trey-arch made a zombies game and only zombies. That would be sweet.

Are the same game every year but I don't see 100 comments bitching about them every time there is some news,if all the people that don't like the game just ignore cod maybe it might go away keep talking about it and it will stay because no1 is letting it die off.

Ever notice how the majority of people who hate on things can't be bothered to learn/use proper grammar (And before anyone says "im on my smartphone," shut up. If I can type fine from my phone, so can you)? I guess their live are just SO miserable, they need to divert their anger at their living situations to something other people like.

It's a game, people, not the fucking presidential election. If you don't like it, don't buy it. If you think it's a rip off, don't buy it. If you've had bad experience with Call of Duty in the past and don't trust this game, don't buy it!

I would like to see an end to both CoD and MW and the start of something new. Both Infinty Ward and Treyarch just can't believe their luck that they don't have to change much as far as the multiplayer side of it to keep selling their games by the million.

So i guess those that keep buying it obviously must love it...fair enough but the other gamers that just hate these games probably think that these two series dominate the online scene far too much and stifle any competition and i believe they've got a point.

The MW games are all technically quite impressive, Spec Ops i thought was the best part of MW2 and the multiplyer became more of an arcade game experience which wasn't to my liking.
Treyarch games to me look appalling, they are on par with PS2 visually. They look very dated.

I hope within 5 years these games will be a distant memory and online shooters would have moved on to better things, i'm sure many will look back fondly on these games but also realise how basic they really were...but then online shooters are still very much in their early years.

Maybe a big sales dip might shock these leaders of online shooters into action and deliver something new and great.

People continue to use the awful "don't like it don't buy it" argument. It is not a valid counter argument. It's just a stupid phrase parroted by fanboys who get upset when something they like is being criticized.

I understand not all of the criticism aimed at Call of Duty is warranted but people need to stop mindlessly countering with "don't like it don't buy it".

I think where activision and trey arch fail is the fact that thwy never come out with new IP. They need new games and fresh ideas instead of relying solely on the COD series. Take DICE for example. They have Medal of Honor AND Battlefield.

Did you have to use every bit of your two brain cells to come up with that? Also one of the biggest misconceptions is that gamers are kids and teens. Most gamers are in their 20's and 30's.
