Activision clears air on Black Ops 2 fallout

4.1
Given last year’s leak on Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Activision are keeping understandably hush-hush on this year’s super-shooter release. So when Amazon France listed Black Ops 2 available for pre-order recently, the publisher wasn’t too happy, reportedly blacklisting the site that original reported the listing.

But that's not the case, assures the publisher. Speaking on behalf of the company, a PR agency stated to VentureBeat: ”Activision doesn’t blacklist journalists. We believe this was a misunderstanding and are working towards a resolution.”

It’s reassuring to hear the company take a direct stance on this situation. Besides, we all really know that Black Ops 2 is on for this year, don’t we?

Zirtex Who cares. I hate CoD the only CoD i still play are CoD4, WaW, MW2. They are just money hungry i could care less.


Explain how they're money hungry? Oh wait..you probably can't.

And it's "couldn't care less" not could.
I can explain. They release a game every single year with the same physics engine. The games are all basically the same. They charge $60, they have ELITE which sucks D, they have 10 freaking map packs that all suck and should be included in the game in the first place. The games have none if not very little difference in them from the one before, they hype it up like it's a brand new game that is totally different. Then it's a huge disappointment but you already bought it. Treyarch is the the only ones that have any kind of new concept and try to change things for the better. They are money hungry, period.


Treyarch blows at making First-Person Shooters. The only good thing about them is Zombies, that's how there making all of their money. Not because of Multiplayer, and their games aren't even worth worsting money on. Also "trying to change things for the better"? No, they completely ruined the CoD Series with Black Ops. Infinity Ward is making the maps, Spec Ops missions, and gametypes as they go along fixing every other problems that are being reported to them. They are working to balance out the game, trying to make it more entertaining for everyone.

Now, good day to you.

nober555 Huh in my opinion i don't think they should make a black ops 2! I was really disappointed when i first bought black ops. I thought the whole concept of buying your weapons is unnecessary. The reason people started to play the other cod is because you would unlock items after getting to a certain level.
Not oh i got to lvl 17 now i have to buy the ak74, oh wait i dont have enough. Or look guys i have extended mags for my ak74 at lvl 18!! Ridiculous!!!
how they did that perks system with the money was freaking bad arse! You could go into a wager match and win enough money to buy everything early on. That way people that are higher rank don't have an advantage because you need to wait until level 60 to unlock a tac insert! IW= same old same old! TA= Dat new new!

shadow1 Treyarch will actually make this game amazing. They will balance out this game hopefully. They said they may take out knife, make it 2 hit kill or no lunge at all. And they said they may also have a perk system like cod4/waw. And if they take out quickscoping again, then we dont have to deal with 13 and under years old clans ruining search by just trying to do a 360 and failing 30 times.
when did they ever say that?

Aura I hope it'll be better than BO but I don't think so.
The only good thing about Treyarch's CoD's is the Zombie Mode.

If the only thing good about treyarch is zombies then whats infinity ward. all they have is multiplayer and it blows
I take it you've never heard of Special Ops or Survival on MW3 then?


mp is really the only thing worth playing no matter what. zombies gets old after the 1st play on a map. same goes for anything really with waves. that and everything after WaW sucks dick so...
