Call of Duty: Black Ops "Escalation" DLC Trailer

Post by Steve Farrelly @ 11:25am 20/04/11 | 13 Comments

Activision and Treyarch have sent through a trailer outlining the next DLC drop for Call of Duty: Black Ops, which like their previous map pack, includes five brand new maps and a zombie map called Call of the Dead.

Today's trailer features Treyarch cats running you through the new maps on offer, with glimpses of what they'll look like and commentary on what each map will be best for in terms of play-styles, though unfortunately they don't go into any detail about the new zombie map, so we'll have to wait until the DLC releases on May 3rd for full disclosure there.

Speaking of cod, I got onto the ign top 10 kills of the week vid (wasn't even a kill clip).

I'm over blops now. Just bought bf2 again for $29 at JB so I'm going to get back into that.

Do people still play black ops? It seems to have bombed a bit, didn't have anywhere near the staying power of Modern Warfare

I stopped playing it for about a month. Though I just got my XIM3 hooked up (thanks to scuzzy for the tips). With the new maps and the new mouse/keyboard setup it already feels like a new game with the new controls. The difference is amazing.

home-made counter-strike videos almost beat this trailer. Does it cost $20? $5 permap? lulers

Oh yeah, it would be pretty fun with a XIM 3 I guess, owning face with mouse and keyboard against all the people trying to aim with control pads. Do you actually notice it making a huge improvement on how you play? Or at the end of the day are you still limited by hard coded limits set in place for the controller?

Wouldn't it make more sense to challenge your kb/mouse skills on a pc vs other people using kb/mouse?

I haven't actually gone online with yet as i'm still trying to get the best config setup for it but just being able to flick your mouse and turn 180 will gives you a huge advantage over your opponents. Once i set it up exactly how I want it i'll go online and record myself and give my proper impressions of it. It's still something you need to get used to so I'm not expecting my Kill/Death ratio to increase dramatically straight away, but i can tell you already it's a massive improvement no 2 ways about it.

I'm not there just to challenge people, i'm just there to have fun. Keyboard and mouse makes it easier to use and therefore makes it more fun, IMO.
