This isn’t the first time Treyarch has played around with choice-based gameplay since Black Ops 2. “Nothing is ever as it seems in a gripping single-player campaign, where players will come face-to-face with historical figures and hard truths, as they battle around the globe through iconic locales like East Berlin, Vietnam, Turkey, Soviet KGB headquarters and more,” reads the campaign’s description.Ĭold War will not only feature character customization but multiple endings, adding some classic RPG elements to the franchise’s big-action shooter formula. Returning characters include Alex Mason and Frank Woods from the first game as well as the debut of Ronald Reagan in the Call of Duty franchise. The new game, which is set in the 1980s, will have to reckon with the tail end of the Cold War. Either way, keep it locked to for all your Black Ops 2 news and updates.Cold War, which is being developed by Treyarch and Raven Software, continues the story of the very first Black Ops game, which saw US operatives deal with a Russian threat in the days leading up to the assassination of President John F. It remains to be seen if Activision plans to release any further details at E3 next month, or if they’re just going to parade around the same demo I was shown during their pre-E3 event. The coolest thing about these drones is they are small enough to fly indoors, which introduces a new dynamic to clearing buildings. When available, players can set rally points that the quadrotors will fly to and attack, or protect. One of the things that this device allows for is the operation of Quadrotors in some levels of the campaign. In the trailer, you can see that there is a communications device on your character’s wrist. When a player switches from soldier to over-watch, the soldier will rejoin the rest of the ground troops as an NPC and continue the fight as the player sets rally points, targets, and controls the battlefield using the various drones at their disposal.Īnother new feature is the use of the “Quadrotor” drones. If you got shot, you lost control of said drone. Whenever taking control of a predator drone, players had to find a place to hide and guide the drone. The major concern I had with this stems from playing the Modern Warfare series.
