Both require different challenges to unlock
Once the desired Pro version is unlocked, the player can select that as their “Perk Pro”.
Once selected, the only way to choose the other option is by entering prestige mode.

Speed – Reduces the time taken to aim down the sight
Pro I – Swaps weapons faster
Pro II – Throws equipment faster

Combat Training

Will be returning with vast improvements.
Difficulty is no longer based on how long the bots take to start shooting.
Bots now have an advance AI system
Similar to the behavior seen in the MW3 Spec Ops survival

more of the same with more shit piled on top to further imbalance the product...COD is just becoming more and more shameless in their blatant design follies and no improvements or changes year after year.

[[SS]Midnight]

Quite the cut-n-paste post. So predictable DG. *tskt* *tsk*

[DatGuy]

WELLLLLL, it IS a COD themed thread...figured I'd do what comes natural with this franchise :)

[Tagger]

I enjoyed the combat training in BO. My brother and I would do that sometimes just to avoid dealing with the public.

[[SS]SportoFu]

Seriously DG, don't make me use this

The shit that's been said about BO2 makes me think they actually know what's going on.

Game Modes

Escort, a new game mode
Similar to Search and Destroy however a live player must be escorted to one of three areas (or two depending on the map) without being killed.

I like this mode. We’ve even done this mode in our own in house tourney’s.

[DatGuy]

its not trolling when its the truth sporto!

what gives you any indication this game won't just be a direct copy and paste job with 1 or 2 minor things being a tad different?

They haven't done anything over the past 5 years to improve the game at all. Only added more crap that further imbalanced it, and made it easier to play for people who suck.

[[SS]Midnight]

Yes DG it is. Your opinion does not = truth.

Chief, ya the Escort mode sounds like the exact same from R6v2. We used that for our Kill Phil Tourneys. Very fun mode.

[DatGuy]

its an educated opinion!

RUMOR
First Black Ops 2 "Screenshots" Leaked Via Special Effects Company

Some images, reportedly originating from the website of Hollywood special effects company Reel EFX (but since pulled), look like they could be our first look at the next Call of Duty game. Or at least some parts of it.

For a while now, Activision has been teasing the game with shots of a gun-toting "quadcopter", both in internet videos and on the game's website. Well, these images - which look like screenshots printed out and pinned up on a board - also star a quadcopter.

There's not much more to the shots, but they look almost certain to be in-game (or at least in-engine) shots, supplied by Activision for reference.

According to the video in the gallery, Reel EFX built and supplied the model used in FPS Russia's earlier video.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 has been confirmed as the next Call of Duty game. While the title has been long-rumored and hinted at by several leaks and rumors, an image of a Target pre-order card sent in by an IGN reader has confirmed the game's title and release date.



As shown on the card, the game hits stores on November 13, 2012 and will be headed to at least PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Black Ops 2 will be formally announced on May 1st during the NBA playoffs.
