'Call of Duty: Black Ops 2' Multiplayer: But wait, there's more | The Verge

The Verge: "The Santa Monica-based developer, once widely regarded as the back-up Call of Duty team, is doing more with multiplayer in Black Ops 2 than anyone else. It's doing it more thoughtfully, making online multiplayer more approachable, more customizable than ever."

That's all great in stuff. Are the maps the same tiny rat mazes? Did they ever fix the spawn locking syndrome killing these games?

[3-4-5]

Maps are not small. They have widened all the paths in the maps if you watch a few videos and instead of 95% of the map being close quarters combat maybe 25% of the map is.

This game is like a mix of everything good we've ever wanted from a COD.

Maps have Two sides technically so the spawning shouldn't be an issue. Break it down more and they have 4 sides really with 2 smaller sides.

Everything we complained about the last 4 years seems to have been fixed.

The 4 sides excuse means nothing spawn-locking one flag spawn. Obviously it hasn't done anything in 3 games now.

I saw the same videos too. It's the same damn game guy. Ya they changed some stuff around, gave it a new name and graphic for weapons and gadgets. It's the same toy re wrapped and given to you two xmas in a row.

I actually laughed out loud when I saw the return of the f****** re-skinned RC car.

Guess I'm just bummed nothing has evolved with this franchise.

The spectator, e-sport crap is just wasted resources and memory management that could'v been used for a deeper gaming experience. They kept the game the same and just added crap on all around the sides. E-Sports, big deal im guessing <25% of the player base will be using the spectator and streaming additions. Emblems, big deal. what a waste of resources.

This game looks so pathetic compared to halo 4...

I want this game to fail i know that sounds mean but i do. I'm tired of people asking me if i play COD then me telling them no and them giving me weird look like there must be something wrong with me. Its so freaking annoying -___-

You can relax now. The CoD trend is starting to die off. There are many people on my friend's list that are playing games like Borderlands 2 and BattleField3. I barely see anyone spending time with CoD. I guess it's starting to die off.

I personally don't hate CoD. In fact, I love playing them, its just that I'd never pay 60 bucks for them. MW3 taught me a lesson well deserved. The next time I get a CoD game, it'll have to be from the bargain bin at 20 bucks haha

My friend list that's all they play every freaking day, I think that all of them are poor!!!
