Straight out of this year’s Gamescom, we get an in-depth look into the multiplayer of Treyarch’s upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops 2.
We’ve got it all – weapons, attachments, perks, equipment, wildcards and scorestreaks. As hinted in the recently released multiplayer trailer, Black Ops 2 will be adopting a slot-based create-a-class system that will allow players to mix and match their weapons and abilities within the 10 slots given to them.
Also noteworthy is that Killstreaks are now called “Scorestreaks” and are achievable by scoring certain amounts of points. Of course, this most likely includes capturing objectives or completing certain goals on top of simply killing the enemy.
Keep in mind that, though this list is thorough, it is based off the first public build of the Black Ops 2 and, therefore, could still be tweaked before release this November 13th.
Check out the list of multiplayer goodness below and don’t forget to let us know your thoughts in the comments!
