Basically what everyone is doing is trying to be the wannabe newscaster and just reporting the news as the news comes in on twitter.

You can dive through windows or dive into prone, and you can play against bots (AI) in a combat training mode.

To expand on the concept of unlocking weapons they're adding COD Points.


You'll earn money (COD Points) as you play.

Contracts are time limited challenges that you purchase with COD Points (CP).
There are three categories -- Mercenaries, Operations, Specialist.


Each is attached to certain play styles and in-game achievements.


Gambling is also coming to Call of Duty.
Wager Match - you ante up and put your COD Points on the line and wager on matches. The top three players split the pot.

Other killstreak rewards: Napalm Strike, Gunship, Mortar Team, the Radio Controlled Car, SAM Turret (it takes down a chopper).
***The Gunship is a helicopter like you saw in some of the trailers.

This is starting to sound really good.

kotakumike: SR-71 Blackbird at Black Ops. Activision spares no expense!



[via Twitter]
6:23

kotakumike: Here is a Call of Duty: Black Ops sign. Proof that I am about to play Black Ops.



[via Twitter]
6:25

kotakumike: The signature drink for tonights's Black Ops event? Brown derby! Who can solve this mystery? [via Twitter]
6:32
McWhertor: HAHA, now there are two KotakuMikes!!!
6:34

kotakumike: We were almost admitted to the presentation area but they're "not ready for herding yet." Ops teases!! [via Twitter]
6:39
Crecente: OK, it was only me. Mike hasn't actually manage to clone himself... yet!
6:44

kotakumike: Liveblog update: drinking a beer, talking to @geoffkeighley but still waiting. [via Twitter]
6:45

kotakumike: I guess the CoD: Black Ops presentation will begin at 7pm PST. Or so I hear. [via Twitter]
6:53

kotakumike: I was just told that the attractive wait staff are supposed to be SR-71 Blackbird stewardesses. AKA flight attendants. [via Twitter]
6:55

kotakumike: *This* wait staff.



They are underdressed for the cooling temps. [via Twitter]
7:04

kotakumike: Dinner.



[via Twitter]
7:05

kotakumike: We have entered the theater. I'd wager that updates are imminent. [via Twitter]
7:10
McWhertor: Holy ****. Wifi!!
7:10
McWhertor: AC/DC's "Back In Black" begins to play. That means we're about to start, I guess.
7:11
McWhertor: We're now watching the most recent Black Ops multiplayer trailer.
7:14
McWhertor: Please welcome CODBO executive producer Daniel Suarez to the podium.
7:14
McWhertor: We're starting with the presentation. But first there are some rules.
7:16
McWhertor: No video recording, by the way. But we'll be checking out Black Ops multiplayer live soon.
7:16
McWhertor: Mark Lamia, studio head of Treyarch, is about to take the stage-like space.
7:17
McWhertor: Mark's talking about their love of the fans and how the community has shaped Black Ops' development.
7:18
McWhertor: "We've never been more fired up about Call of Duty" says Mark
7:18
McWhertor: He's talking about Black Ops customization and create-a-class right now, but very loosely.
7:19
McWhertor: He's very excited about it all.
7:20
McWhertor: Compete, Customize and Create is the theme for Black Ops multiplayer.
7:21
McWhertor: Competition will be up first. "We want all gamers to feel the thrill of competition." Through new weapons, perks, etc.
7:21
McWhertor: They're about to play a live demo on the Xbox 360 right now. Summit is the map, Team Deathmatch is the gametype.
7:22
McWhertor: It's a snowy level, leading into a control room. Shots are fired. Dudes are killed. Looks like an MP5 or some variation.
7:22
McWhertor: We're up to a killstreak. Dan shows off the dive to prone position from a platform.
7:22
McWhertor: This is actually a bot match mode.
7:23
McWhertor: Combat Training they call it... a "complete standalone experience."
7:23
McWhertor: It has its own progression system.
7:24
McWhertor: Combat Training is designed to introduce a new type of COD player and appeal to the player who never takes the game online.
7:24
McWhertor: And that's a big segment of the population, Treyarch claims.
7:25
McWhertor: For the first time even in COD, you can play multiplayer by yourself or with a group of friends.
7:25
McWhertor: Create A Class is up next.
7:25
McWhertor: Play alone or with friends, testing maps and tactics. It's training for COD's online multiplayer mode.
7:26
McWhertor: Your character model shows up in the menus now, so you see how customization affects the look of your avatar.
7:26
McWhertor: Now, all players will now at a glance what your Tier 1 perk selection is.
7:27
McWhertor: In Black Ops, all things that you throw (grenades) are on your right bumper, all the things you throw to confuse are on your left bumper.
7:27
McWhertor: Now they have a new category for equipment like Motion Sensors (a personal UAV) and a signal Jammer.
7:27
McWhertor: Looks like that means more depth to the Create A Class options.
7:27
McWhertor: Killstreaks up next.
7:28
McWhertor: Another new change is a batch of special weapons that players will get in Care Packages -- including the Death machine and Grim Reaper.
7:28
McWhertor: The former is a MINI GUN. The latter is a nasty Grenade Launcher.
7:29
McWhertor: Other killstreak rewards: Napalm Strike, Gunship, Mortar Team, the Radio Controlled Car, SAM Turret (it takes down a chopper).
7:29
McWhertor: That Mortar Team looks wicked.
7:29
McWhertor: Now we're talking about MONEY.
7:29
McWhertor: Call of Duty's currency system, eh?
7:30
McWhertor: To expand on the concept of unlocking weapons they're adding COD Points.
7:30
McWhertor: You'll earn money (COD Points) as you play.

Flamethrower attachments for guns?!? Some sniper scopes have multiple zoom lengths, nice!

I predicted this yesterday, brilliant idea. I just hope it can't be taken advantage of by people working together, losing on purpose and then swapping. Even if you can only bet on yourself to win, if the odds are over 2:1 then people are gonna get a huge advantage by cheating.

I predict that after a while, flamethrower attachment will rarely be used, much like shotgun attachments on mw2

I don't see the need for multiple zooms, unless the original zoom is poor on some snipers?

If the flamethrower actually kills people then Ill use it a lot. The shotgun in mw2 is just a joke unless u play hardcore.

Looks sick, but I don't see how they prevent collusion. If it's 6 players with a 3:2:1 payout I'm seeing a lot of people finding a dude they can kill over and over and over and over.

When they said they took the idea of the gun game "straight from the community" they meant they copied it directly from Counter-Strike.

Search and Destroy is essentially Counter Strike on a de_* map, so does that surprise you?

This game looks epic. I'm so happy dogs are back...that **** was hilarious on WaW!

Wow attack dogs are an 11 killstreak. Doesnt seems worth it. Here's a vid showing all the killstreaks.

If dogs are back I may not play this game much. Having to watch for dogs makes the game not fun for me. It may be manageable at 11 if killstreaks do not add to your killstreak total though.

Those wager matches look very exciting though

Sigh, now I gotta get on and kill people. It's like watching a movie: every time someone lights up a cigarette on film I have to have one. Damn addictions.
