beta & OP list the future weapons but here are the guns you use in the past events:

Rifles Fal | Galil | M16A1 | AKM
SMGs MP5A2 | AKS-74U | Uzi
Shotties Olympia over and under | SPAS 12
LMGs RPD | M60 | Minigun (same one as Vorkuta)
Snipers M82A1 | SVD Dragunov
Pistols 1911 | Makarov PM | Browning HP
Launchers RPG7 | Stinger | MM1
They need to bring these over to multi. I wouldn't even touch the future guns.

i missed out on the newegg deal

any other deals on this anywhere? like some $ off or giftcard, not the nuketown crap that everyone has. i know microsoft store has free 1600 points with it, but they are sold out.

Try Dell.com

Wow they improved the sound and graphics alot!

Every launch copy doesent seem to come with nuketown in the box, since i didnt get it.

But who cares? Nuketown sucks anyway!

As long as it's optimized for PC's then I don't care. Too bad I don't have money to get this.

Hasn't it always been like that?

Honestly I can't remember since the last I played was CoD4 and I just can't remember if that sound was in campaign too, but I was hoping for it to be in campaing now.


I was checking some Youtube videos of BLOPS, MW, MW2 and 3 campaign and it appears there wasn't hit sound in campaign there either lols.

yeah, i always remember being annoyed that I didn't know if I'd hit someone in the campaign. with the muzzle flash and the kickback of the gun it was often hard to tell. I love getting some sort of feedback and the puchy fabric sound from COD multiplayer is one of the best. I was also quite partial to the tweet you would get from KZ3 multiplayer

It has, do you know how ridiculous the game would sound with hit marker noise in campaign? All you would here was that damn noise.

Hit sound is for us to know if we hit something even in campaign, for example that sound is in Crysis games for headshots in campaign too.

Nothing wrong with wanting for it to be in campaign IMO, not a deal breaker but still.

Hmm, how does attachment unlock work? Are they still using that points system that I honestly didn't like or have they gone back to X kills / headshots etc.

Yeah it's a multiplayer thing only. I like that sound so it would be cool to have it in the campaign.

Man, there is literally no recoil for this gun: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyrGiJrFOiQ&feature=relmfu

Of course. How is little tim and jimmy suppose to play?
 
The lack of recoil on some of these guns are depressing.

Also, are people not playing online because they are afraid of getting banned? Haven't really searched into it, just lots of talk about bot games and whatnot.

Let's say I want to 100% the game, can I do that against bots in MP?

I would like to know this as well. I was reading up on bots and the way they describe things is a bit confusing.

For example, there is a mode where you can play against bots and get half xp, but do you have to play with other people to use this mode or can you play it solo?
 
If anyone of you Neogaffers plan on using the Shotguns, but are discourage from leaked gameplays, then all that are needed to make them effective are:
- ADS
- Long Barrel
- Stock

Shotguns in Black Ops 2 have a much effective spread when ADS opposed to Hipfiring. They seemed like squirt guns because noobs were mostly hipfiring with them. Here's photographic proof of the difference from DenKirson Forums:

Saiga-12 Hipfire

Saiga-12 ADS

The rest are in here: http://denkirson.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=general&thread=5166&page=4#110243

Long Barrel increases your effective range 20-25% further.
Stock increases your mobility while ADS (very important!).

Is there a shotgun as long range as MW2's 1887?

pcdev just confirmed that livestreaming is included in the PC version.

Got worried for a while there with the media only mentioning 360 and PS3. Livestreaming is one of the reasons I wanted to pick up BO2.

How are they able to play Nuketown when it's supposed to be downloadable? I'm surprised you can have access to the files already on the servers.
