Call of Duty 7: ..... Black Ops? mebbee, mebbee not.

[0iD]

According to a post on VG247.com, the latest installment of the epic Call of Duty series will be called “Call of Duty: Black Ops”.

The post also sugests that the game will differ in it's setting(s) too...as in, more than one era. What there (possibly) will be are missions in Vietnam, Cuba, South America and even the infamous SAS mission during the Iranian embassy siege in London in April 1980. The blog post states that the game, which is currently being developed by Treyarch, will take place in various battle arenas in history such as, during the Cold War, to good old World War II and up-to present day.

Also, (allegedly) Zombie Mode will be back in some form or another! w00t!, as well as dedicated servers. Two major bugbears everyone had with Modern Warfare 2 PC.

Treyarch fixing an Infinity Ward game?

Surely there's ruddy great chasm in the space time continuum.

One I'll leap into whole-heartedly if it turns out to be accurate.

Likely to be only OK like COD5 IMO.

Anything's likely to be better than the MW2 tat we have now.

I'm both bewildered and confused by that.
Who plays it? Where's the sarcasm?

Thats the response i tend to get when i bring it up with 'PC gamers' [the return of] Zombie mode sounds good though, i actually preferred it too Horde mode.

Aah ok, yeah I found zombie mode to be damn right awesome. The main reason behid me buying the map packs was to play that with mates. Even more intense than Left 4 Dead all be it rather repetitive.

I really enjoyed COD5, am i the exception?

Didnt buy MW2 for lots of reasons. This new COD will have to be competitively priced for me to pick it up.

I've heard Vietnam mentioned before, it'd be nice to see it happen to be fair as anything other than WW2 as a setting would be a very welcome change of pace

Maybe announcing the dedicated server support this early will keep the backlash at bay until the game's actually released, unlike MW:2.... A backlash that's still going on now apparently... come on boys, it's been what? Six months, most people get over their girlfriend dumping them quicker than this!

Was probably my thread from a while back.

Nice to have some more detail now though

Hopefully they'll bring back coop campaign mode as well, that was ace in WaW!

Dedi servers is awesome though, if it's true .

This is the 'webz' we're talking about - It's no longer surprise whatever happens.
