Here's an overview of the perks/killstreaks and the guys thoughts:


Here's some actual gameplay (it's 2 matches in 6 parts total and then a 7th vid about class setup):

I hope those graphics just look bad in those vids.. cause they look worse that WaW in some multiplayer vids I watched. =[

[Miguez]

They didn't look that bad lol <_<

[rumpleKillskin]

It's just youtube being youtube. I honestly don't think the graphics got worse.

I'm liking the no juggernaut/stopping power idea though. Makes the game more open to a variety of perks.

He plays games for graphics /laugh

No, but seriously I don't see anything wrong how the graphics are.

[MrJoey]

Hardened sounds to me like it could be a variation of juggernaut. Warlord no idea though...

Warlord is bling, and they explained hardened somewhere. its not jugger

[Miguez]

I've heard hardened is like fmj..

[MrJoey]

Sad thing about all this to me is, I wish they had waited til October for some of this information. The hype will not last 2 months for me.

[Ashikiheyun]

I hope they put a system link in this one that allows more than one vs. one. But my hopes for that have been shot down for three games, so I doubt it

[iSinnnn]

not digging those graphics.

[Miguez]

I really don't see what the problem with these graphics is.

[William-CL]

It's just youtube being youtube. I honestly don't think the graphics got worse.

I'm liking the no juggernaut/stopping power idea though. Makes the game more open to a variety of perks.

And makes it a little more balanced because Stopping power is the most overused perk with assault rifles/lmg/snipers. Also no one noticed? NO COMMANDO!!!!!!!!! And yes Hardened IS Fmj.

I really don't see what the problem with these graphics is.

Not super bad, but for being a game that they are trying to hype up as much as Mw2, they should have something a little better. Maybe a 1080 flatscreen will make it look amazing. Good thing I'm not paying for it and my brother is.. lol

For the hype they're trying to do.. yeah I can agree with that. It's just what do you expect from the same engine? It'll be the same from today and tomorrow. I doubt the updated/new version will be any good so why else are they trying to milk it? -guys that made the engine left/fired-

Gotta realize to make a game that amazing as you want it to be is just not possible with the current gen of consoles. With a computer easily doable, but how many PC games are as successful as a console game nowadays? That's the problem. Just a little OT you know BF 1,2, and so on(Not BC) were originally made for the PC, right? BF3 will be a port to the PC. You can see how much the demand has changed within the past years.

I really don't see what the problem with these graphics is.

It's not 1080p running at 60fps constantly with high res textures everywhere with very graphic explosions. That's the problem! No, but seriously I don't see the problem either. Everyone focuses more on graphics over gameplay nowadays. /angry

[MrJoey]

Your brother can pay for my Prestige edition then.

[iSinnnn]

it's not the quality of graphics that i have the problem with really, i still love my good old halo 2 graphics. it looks too cartoony i guess? don't have a better word for it. for the type of shooter that it is. i like the way the graphics were in mw (for it's time) and mw2. fit well. waw and these, something about them that is just.. off.

[William-CL]

Mw2 Graphics + Black Ops Content = What I want =]

I mean the tires on the cars look painted on almost.. WaW graphics have more detail. For being CoD 7, it should look better than it's predecessors ( Treyarch CoDs)

[XMoshe]

IMO it already looks like MW2 but I might be mistaken.

[William-CL]

Mw2 Looks real crisp and detailed. Maybe on PC they look more similar. Some things look pretty close, but overall it's upsetting =\ Mw2 fit in great gameplay and Graphics. The gameplay in this seems cool, but not improving graphics even a little based on what WaW had is crap. Although as much as I'm complaining, I'll prolly play lol. Just cause No commando, No Stopping Power, No chaining Killstreaks for Noobs, Dedicated Servers. Gonna be sweet =]

[andycooly]

Can't wait, i just don't understand the money and xp concept. Whats money used for and whats xp used for?

[MrJoey]

Money is used for unlocking the guns and perks(?) and other related items. XP I'm guessing will mean they'll still have levels, not sure what those levels will mean though.

[William-CL]

So how come almost every clip has someone getting a perk pro? Are they not permanent or something?

[XMoshe]

That's one of those wager games. Where everyone start out with a random weapon (same weapon for everyone) and you can unlock perks by killing other people.

And it does look better than WaW, but graphics isn't the main point for me anyways. Just want it to run a bit smooth.

Go watch that video in HD full screen and tell me that the graphics don't look good. People had the exact same concerns with MW2. I remember watching some of the singleplayer game play and the snow levels looked better than previous CoD games.

[William-CL]

They aren't bad, but they don't seem as sharp and good as mw2. Or even much diff than WaW. I'd watched that vid a ton lol. I like how it flows and it has a great frame rate. But the textures is what I'm talking about to be specific. Lacks detail. But like I said, I'll prolly play it anyways.

[rumpleKillskin]

Yeah, I kinda see where you are coming from. It doesn't bother me though since I start looking over graphics after a couple of matches and go for the gameplay.

[Miguez]

I know this sounds like a pathetic excuse but... The game's not finished yet

[William-CL]

The graphics prolly won't get any dramatic upscale lol. It seems weird the way graphics are. Your player/weapon looks a lot better and more detailed than the environment. Just doesn't really sync, maybe that's why I'm having issues with it.

[MrJoey]

Quality looks fine in that video imo.

[William-CL]

It does and that is what confuses me. I wonder if It's pre rendered. When I saw that, I about shit. I thought graphics would suck but they are good in that. Then the reveal vids came out and not so much. Also in that Vid, it looks very staged and ppl are just shooting at nothing.
