New features first time appearing and some re-introduced on the Call Of Duty franchise.
Multiplayer Online Split-Screen Support
- You can connect a second controller and bring a guest online (i.e. "HAZE-unit" & "HAZE-unit(1)").
- Guests can rank up, earn unlocks, etc – all guest progress goes away once signed out.
Custom Games Editor.
Players will have the ability to structure their games at all new levels of granularity. From variables as simple as Time Limit and Score Limit, or as deep as which weapons, Perks, and gear are available. You want a Pistols Only match? Make one! No longer do custom game modes rely on the "honor system."
Furthermore, any Custom Game you create and configure can be placed in your File Share, for friends and the community to browse, download, and enjoy. You just might create the most addictive new game mode of all time from the comfort of your own living room!
In-Game Friends List.
integrated a built-in Friends List into the in game user interface. You'll be able to browse Recent Players, Friends, navigate their File Shares, Recent Games, Combat Records – all within this in-game menu system designed to streamline the social process within the game. Sending game invites and joining Friends' games has never been simpler than in Call of Duty: Black Ops.
Regional Matchmaking & Party Privacy.
Call of Duty: Black Ops will support regional matchmaking filters on a global scale. So, no matter where you're at in the world, you will have the ability to specify whether you want to match with players from other geographical regions, or only those local to you. This will make communication and lag a much less intrusive variable on your gameplay experience.
Additionally, given Black Ops will support joining games in progress via an even simpler built-in in-game Friends List interface, we'll allow a Party leader to lock down his lobby to Invite Only, Friends Only, or even Close it altogether if he wants to be in complete control over who enters and exits the Party Lobby.
Points system.
- Every time you play, you earn money (COD points)
- What you used to unlock by level is now for sale — if you can afford it, you can buy it (weapons, equipment)
- Contracts: time limited challenges that you purchase with COD Points (CP). Categories = Mercenaries, Operations, Specialist. Each is attached to certain play $tyle and in-game achievements.
Theater Mode.
The Theater Mode allows you to create your own videos using replays as you edit the camera angles, speed, and clips of gameplay together AKA uncharted 2, Halo 3...wtc.
