Rumour: Next Treyarch COD ‘a direct sequel to Black Ops’

In its latest ‘Rumour Machine’ column, Official PlayStation Magazine UK claims Treyarch is developing a second Call of Duty: Black Ops title.

[kharma45]

Part of me wouldn't mind seeing a sequel to it, quite enjoyed Black Ops as it was a nice change of environment from WW2 and the Modern Warfare settings.

[mjolliffe]

It was a nice change, but I personally would like to see a World at War sequel. That was a brilliant COD title.

Viktor Reznov!

[Cosmo811]

Worst of the entire series..

[Getowned]

why do some people hate W@W,W@W zombies which are 70% better then black ops zombies,der rise is bad @SS on [email protected] liked W@W more then MW2 and I like Black Ops more then MW3.I wouldn't mind at all if I had another WW2 games from treyarch with the game play of [email protected] me crazy but I would be up for some W@W right now.It would also be cool to play as the english and canadians in WW2 which played a bigger part in the war not that the Americans weren't important but theres so much more story to tell and we have almost heard all of the American storys by now.

[beavis4play]

i want a zombie game.

[mjolliffe]

Lot of people saying that. Maybe they should make a separate franchise for that. Call of Duty's unrealistic enough as it is. :P

[ZippyZapper]

Dead Island or Left 4 Dead

[enfestid]

Agreed. I know the story was cliche, but it was still great.

[slavish]

too much modern shorters i had to pass on black ops and mw3.

[Stewie2k8]

I feel like a partly Futuristic shooter actually. but not all laser rifles and stuff :p

[Veni Vidi Vici]

Totally agree. BO is pretty much just like MW in terms of guns and tech so I don't see much difference.

Having the next COD set in the future would allow the creators to be *gasp* CREATIVE. What a concept to a COD game. Creativity.

Having said that, since creativity would be needed, we can pretty much guarantee that the next COD WON'T be set in the future. I really don't understand why game creators don't do many futuristic shooters.

[MrBeatdown]

I'd love a futuristic take on the series. I think that's actually what Infinity Ward will do next, hopefully as the first next-gen CoD. I think those two things would go a long way towards answering the complaints about the aging engine and how similar it feels to past MW games.

[Relientk77]

Heh. Modern shorters lol

I think u mean shooters

[bergoo]

They need to go back to WWII

[ThatIrishGamer]

YAY!!!!

Even more hideously disgusting old weapons, awful sound design, crap graphics, 2 months of connection problems, bland environments, grey and brown screen filters, very unnatural lighting effects, and yet another Treyarch game where they're afraid to do something that isn't predictably - OLD.

[enfestid]

Seriously? Black Ops advanced Call of Duty (particularly the multiplayer) more than Modern Warfare 2 or 3 did. I would have agreed with your assessment of Treyarch prior to Black Ops, but they did a good job on that one.

[FlashXIII]

Advancement in a call of duty game is hardly anything to shout home about seeing how very little changes each year however I do agree that overall Black Ops gameplay wise was far more solid. Sadly they all ruined that in a patch increasing firing rate/lowering health so people dropped like they do in MW2/3 which imho ruined the game.

[irepbtown]

Split screen online was something brilliant they added along with Theatre mode. But graphics wise, sound wise, lighting wise it was no different than MW2. If anything slightly worse.

I do like the Black Ops campaign, was thoroughly entertaining, set aside the graphics. Zombies was hours of fun. It isn't a 'horrible' game, it just isn't a good one. Campaign and Zombies literally save the game.

I am looking forward to this, HOPEFULLY a new engine. Something Activision really need to try and make.

[CaptainSheep]

I don't think Black Ops had disgusting old weapons.. Black Ops' weapons were pretty cool, imo. I dunno why, but I enjoyed BO a lot. It's MP pace was just awesome.

[BuffMordecai]

Black Ops had a lot more color than MW3, that game looked all washed out.

[ZippyZapper]

And BF will lose agian

[ASTAROTH]

OMG Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!
BO 2!!!!!!!!!!!!... then MW4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... Then BO3!!!!!!!!!!!! ... then MW5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... Then BO4!!!!!!!!!!!!!... then I dont give a FK!!!!!!!!!!!

[pedo_across-the-road]

OMG Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!
medal of honor 2!!!!!!!!!!!!... then battlefield bad company 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... medal of honor 3!!!!!!!!!!!! ... then battlefield 4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

[Grip]

they r not yearly and every one knows there will be COD next year. but not MOH(that game sucks) or BF. so don't makes thought from ur hole

[ThatIrishGamer]

@Grip . . .there has been a Medal of Honor or Battlefield game (i.e. a DICE game) out just as much as CoD lol.

2002: Battlefield 1942
2003: Battlefield 1942: The Road to Rome
2004: Battlefield Vietnam
2005: Battlefield 2
2006: Battlefield 2 Expansions and Battlefield 2142
2007: Battlefield: Northern Strike
2008: Battlefield: Bad Company
2009: Battlefield: 1943
2010: Battlefield: Bad Company 2 + Medal Of Honor
2011: Battlefield 3.

[Shackdaddy836]

Nobody mentioned BF or MoH.

Plus MoH and BF are two completely different franchises(3 if you count BC separate from BF). CoD is just one franchise released every yar.

@Grip - MoH confirmed for next year and it does not suck.

[ASTAROTH]

Welcome the CALL OF DUTY FANBOYS please... LOL.

Anyway Im tired of the military based (real military) FPS. I passed on BF3 and MW3 and I dont care about any of these games... Its my opinion and in no way I wanted to hurt the kids feelings... SORRY!

[Der_Kommandant]

I will never buy another Treyarch game ever again

[Urbz7870]

The best comment ever!

[yabhero]

I will always respect Treyarch for making decent Wii version of BO and MW3, infintiy Ward didnt give a shit with modern warfare reflex, releasing it 2 years after... thats why treyarch handles all the Wii versions after activision realized they could make over 50 million dollars of the wii version alone

[PhantomT1412]

Actualy, even MW Reflex was ported by Treyarch. IW "doesn't know" how to make wii games.

[MizTv]

as much as i like cod i wish they wouldnt put one out every year. i only play the mw cods

[MizTv]

as much as i like cod i wish they wouldnt put one out every year. i only play the mw cods. they put all this dlc maps out then the new game comes out and it sucks

[Shackdaddy836]

Not going to buy it then. It's too modern for me. I'm starting to get really sick of modern shooters. Plus the last BO was horribly boring to me for some reason...

I just finished playing a little WaW again yesterday and my god, was that a good game. Not as good as MW1, but still a really good. I wish they made a second WaW game.

[Tarantino_Life]

How exciting.... Not!! Their campaigns are sooo bad. How do ppl like this.Same slow motion bullshit at the end of the all the action sequences, Horrible AI,Horrible stories that seem as if it is written by 12 year old Americans. Sheesh!! I dont get this. How the hell does Deus Ex HR sell so low and this piece of monkey crap sell so much. Shame!

[sllshrm]

seriously man

DE:HR is my GOTY...and it didnt get much attention..makes me sad :|

[Veni Vidi Vici]

I played several hours of DE but got bored and quit. The story seemed pretty good but the gameplay was horrible IMO. I just didn't have much fun playing it. I'm not the only one I've heard say this too. If they fixed the gameplay, maybe it would have sold better.

[sllshrm]

Deja Vu! xD

[ziggurcat]

so in other words:

same models
same SFX
same music
same maps

[TopDudeMan]

Did anyone understand the black ops story?

[FlareDReborn]

Well to each its own but i actually like Treyarch games more...Idk its just i like what Black Ops had done with the series. I know theres was problems with black ops hit detection and lag but beyond that the game was pretty darn solid if you can get past the FamAugAk74-u

[iMpuTeD]

this is the the rumor of the century lmao

[Johandevries]

I am extremely hyped up for the sequel!!!! 1 1 1

No really, I can't find a single hair on my ass that would at least consider buying another game from Treyarch

[Relientk77]

I think that would make the most sense for Treyarch. They should make Black Ops 2

[artdafoo]

Who's really surprised ??

[erivera1994]

Yes... i loved Black ops. In my opinion the online is better than MW3. not to say that MW3 is bad cuz it isnt but if i had to choose one i'd go with black ops. Im glad they are making a Black ops 2.
