Black Ops 'most difficult' CoD to balance
Thanks to the introduction of CoD Points and rare but devastating super weapons, the developer is finding it even more difficult to keep everything in check.
"It has been a much more difficult game to balance but the team really stepped up to the plate," community man, Josh Olin told CVG in a just-published Black Ops interview.
"This has been the most difficult to balance and there are a lot of things that contribute to that such as the earn rate and spend rate of CoD points, plus XP is always a tough thing to balance out.
"With all these things we're adding to purchase you have to balance not only the weapons and perks against each other but also when you consider how much they're going to cost," he explained.
Though challenging, Olin said that the recent restructure of the Treyarch studio - it now focuses solely on Call of Duty - makes everything possible.
"Almost two years ago now they refocused all their efforts on retooling the studio and on the development process. One of those was having every developer focusing on Call of Duty when we were working on World at War.
"Now it has allowed us to have a dedicated single-player and multi-player team since day one. They haven't been distracted by other things so it has allowed out MP team to use their resources to make more than we've ever made before, but also really polish and balance it to the degree that we felt was necessary," he said.

this the ultima problem with call of duty is balance. what may seem like balance to one person may not to another.

When I first saw that, I figured it had something to do with weapons and whatnot, and expected a shitstorm.
But, with COD Points and everything, balance issues are another problem, and as long as they're on it, sounds good to me.
