Just last night I fired up the XBOX and spent over an hour updating and downloading all the new maps for MW3.
Not sure how I feel about them, played a couple of them in private matches just to get a feel for them. Not very creative if you ask me, some look like they will be fun, some look like teh suck.
I am on the fence and will wait to buy BO2. I am not gonna sit on line at midnight, that's for damn sure.
Btw is it true that apparently all servers will be dedicated, and hackers will be detected and banned faster?
Cause anyone whose played on pc knows that hackers pretty much fucked up the online multiplayer games for MW3. This just can't can't happen to BO2 cause that would be fucken bull SHiT!

i seriously doubt a cod game will be on servers. MW1 was server based for PC but i dont think Treyarch will do that. at least with XBL, you can report them for cheating. in MW3, you can report them while in the lobby (or report them to XBL). IW actually posted they were gonna crack down on the cheaters big and who knows how well that turned out on console.

after they did away with ded servers with mw2, i doubt they will ever bring it back. its all about console gaming now, pc gamers are slowly being left in the dust.
i pre-ordered my copy last night for xbox after i traded in mw3. there is a 30% extra credit towards specific titles if you trade in games at game stop right now.

Treyarch has been kind enough to outline exactly what will force the ban hammer to swing your way in Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, so there’s no excuse when it happens.
There are two levels of infringement, the first is a minor misdemeanor and will see you temporally suspended from the servers for between 48 hours and two weeks. The second level is an extreme offense, this is when a player has caused problems for other users or has organized a large group of commit offenses, pick up one of these and you will be permabanned.
The bannable offenses are exactly what you would expect from a Call of Duty title, ranging from modding/hacking the game to boosting/glitching. Every rule seems fair and the punishment fits the crime so I doubt many fans will complain about the list.
Definitions
Temporary bans can range from 48 hours to 2 weeks, depending on the severity of the infraction. Permanent bans are lasting and final.
A minor offense is one in which no quantifiable damage has been done to another user or the game community at large. An extreme offense is one in which a player has caused detriment to other users or has organized large groups of users to commit additional offenses.

I like the rules they are going to try and enforce, but still do not think Black Ops 2 is for me. Let me know how it goes guys, still curious to see if torrenting it for the story line is even worth it.
Yeah last week my boyfriend and I went to the halo release. And we'll be going tonight for BO2 as well. I get off work at 11pm though so its not like we're waiting up for it.
this sucks. i wanna pick up BO2 tomorrow and i cant. my xbox is in WA state and i am in CO until Dec 20. i just hope my GF doesnt make me wait until Xmas day to play
The game is sickkk!! The feel from mw3 to bo2 is a lot different. Futuristic guns, vehicles, equipment, class customization, you name it.
Creating a class is a bit complicated because of all the new perks and equipment. Most of the perks do the same thing in mw3 just with new names and symbols.
I really like it so far! And no hackers encountered yet!

yep just like the original black ops. there is a reason why a lot of people stayed with it instead of going to MW3. the game just works and its very fun. i cant wait to play but i have a long wait ahead of me. ill just watch the youtube vids until then.
Shit game, graphics are shit, story is ridiculous, AI are stupid and just run at you. I quite liked the first but this is ridiculously bad, absolute waste of cash.
