Surprised no-one has started a thread yet.

So who's getting it?
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

Should of gone with Simply Game, got mine this morning!

Is very good, graphics seem a lot better, the sound is a improvement over MW3 and the maps are awesome.

Some annoying things though, quick scoping is worse than ever, if you want to use ghost (hide from UAV) you have to wait until level 55..yes 55 to unlock it! Also footsteps are near enough completely muted, even with headsets.

Yep everyone who ordered at Simply Games before Thursday night had the game sent out on Friday for a Saturday delivery! First time I had used them, but they even advertised on their website that you would have the game before the release date

QS is just as bad as it was on MW3 which is very annoying, is one reason I liked Blops, as like you said, QS was harder on there.

Level 27 was the assassin perk on MW3, to make it level 55, which is the last level on Blops2 is really stupid. Means at the moment my secondary weapon is always a launcher to shoot down the UAV's.

Apart from that though, this is the best COD yet. The maps are 100 times better than MW3 and lots of new game modes too.

One I like the most one where you can play kill confirmed, hardpoint and team deathmatch....in 4 teams of 4 players. Is much more fun running around in small teams.

They also brought back wager matches, gun game, one in the chamber and sticks and stones. This time though, instead of winning COD points, which are not back, you earn XP towards your prestige which is much better

Oh forgot to add there is a new multiplayer option this year that allows you to play in a league for a month with similar ranked players and over the month you play selected game types and depending on where you finish you will either move up a league or down a league.

f**king hell. I am fuming. Had I known!!!  :cry:

Sounds interesting...lvl55 for assasin touhg? A touch silly I feel. You can only use it when you get to the top?

You say lvl 55 is the top lvl, then prestige right? Do you know how many prestiges? Are there still titles and emblems to unlock or not?

What are the guns like? How futuristic is it?

There are 10 levels this year for prestige and 55 is the top limit.

It is better this time around too. When you prestige, you won't lose your progress on guns. So say when you prestige and you unlock a gun you have used before, when you unlock it again at a certain level, you carry on where you left it at the last prestige, which is much better.

Saves having to unlock the gun, then start to unlock all the add ons too.

As for titles and emblems, they are back but so is the awesome emblem editor they had in Blops 1. So you can design your own emblems, you can save up to 3 I think this time too and it is like a mini photoshop this time around, can designs really cool emblems.

Guns are good, yes they all have new names, but to be honest, if say you liked the AK-47, you will find a gun that handles like the AK-47.

You don't really notice the futuristic nature of the game, there are some cool stuff you can use though, like small knifes you put down which shock people when they go near them.

Is a great game. Unlike MW3 which was near enough the same as MW2, this games feels different
