If you've been following my comments on blogs (and if you haven't, why not?), then you'll probably know that I'm a huge fan of CoD's single-player. I just love the experience, the story and the gameplay that you get in it.
However, just like everything in life, CoD can always improve itself. These are just a few things that I think could make the campaigns in CoD even cooler than they already are.
- 1 1. Improve the enemy AI
- 2 2. Make the fighting more diverse
- 3 3. More open missions
- 4 Conclusion
The AI in CoD is, ah... how can I put this delicately... well, they're not too bright. Your enemies will gladly take cover in the same spot where one of their buddies got capped by a sniper not ten seconds ago, or they'll charge straight at you in some kind o…

It seems to be that time again where the fake DLC leaks start coming out. This recent one for Call of Duty: Black Ops II, Liberation, appeared legit. With good art, unique design and names, and even a correct release date (if previous leaks are to be believed).So what makes it blatantly obvious the the DLC is fake? Well, the Zombie on the right is from The Walking Dead. That's a start.
So basically, this is fake. Don't fall for it.

Infinity Ward has confirmed that both Raven Software and Neversoft have been supporting the development of Call of Duty: Ghosts.

Official Playstation Magazine have published an interview which gives us more info about the weapons, engine, multiplayer and the storyline. The interview and new material can all be seen below:
When revealing the game Activision CEO Eric Hirshberg stated, “We could have played it safe and simply made Modern Warfare 4. Which is what a lot of people were expecting us to do. There are 122 million search results for Modern Warfare 4, a sequel that doesn’t exist. So that’s a lot of interest and anticipation for us to walk away from. But we did. We didn’t want to rest on our laurels we wanted to push this thing forwards. And we wanted to use the opportunity with the new generation to usher in the next generation of Call Of Duty”. It’s feeling ba…

Hey guys. I haven't really posted to this wiki yet. I was checking on my COD Elite account earlier today and I saw a mysterious emblem behind my Master Prestige on the Black Ops 2 player page. When I looked around there, I saw it said, "You are ready for Prestige 12, Level 1". I was blown away. BO2 is planning on releasing more prestiges. I don't have access to my PS3 at the time but it seems that it is not yet available. Due to the fact that When I try to go the Prestige calculator to see the new prestige(s), it looks the same as it's always been. My guess is that Call of Duty is preparing Elite for the arrival of a set of new prestiges, and we just caught a glimpse at one. As far as I know, no one's reported on these. I haven't seen any …

Hello, my name is Awesomeman326, and I have something to say to all the people who are hating on Call of Duty. Saying that Infinity Ward, Treyarch, and Activision are running out of ideas for the series, and that almost every single game is the same as the last one. And I'm here to say why that's not true. Number 1: Almost half of the things that are in First-Person-Shooters nowadays are things that origininated from CoD. The way the HUD is layed out, the gamemodes, some of the weapons, attachments, and lethal grenades and tactical grenades (Mostly in BO2), the killstreaks, the storylines, EVERYTHING!!! And yet dispite the fact that Battlefield has all of these things, people say that it's better than CoD by a mile. People say that Battlef…

Infinity Ward have released a very small sneak peak clip on to their Vine account. While it's not a massive reveal, it shows some development shots, showcasing a characters face, a character shooting, an explosion and a forest environment. Some guns can also be made out, however due to this early development stage, it is unknown if they will be in the finished product.

As found by twitter user @TWiinSANE, coding on the Call of Duty: Elite website has supposedly leaked the release dates of Black Ops II DLC 3 and DLC 4. DLC 3 is listed for a July 2nd release date, which matches up with a rumor we heard earlier this week, while DLC 4 is listed for a August 27th release date. I've heard of a second possible release date for DLC 4 being September 10th, but this is unlikely.If you are interested in the video, you can see it here:

Thatguy9000 here for a guide on how I deal with corners in BOII!
This is my strategy for dealing with corners in BOII, and this requires:
- Shock charge
- Semtex
and:
- Fast Hands
First, you toss either a semtex or shock charge and then the other remaining one. The fast hands is for being able to toss it faster, which is the key for this. The shock charge will detonate with the semtex, thus stunning them and if the semtex hits, you have a weakened foe. You can also enter rooms with this strategy, and clear windows with it.

Call of Duty: Elite now features an interview with Treyarch’s Executive Producer Jason Blundell about creating Mob of the Dead, in celebration of the DLC's release on PS3 and PC. He goes into detail about how the location was picked, the character creation, the writing, and the atmosphere. You can read the whole interview here or in the C+P below.
Why Alcatraz? What other locations did you consider in pre-production?
Whenever you take on a new Zombies experience, the first thing is location, location, location. You start thinking, where are we going to put this? What kind of tone are we going to bring? Alcatraz just kind of popped up. Multiple people had referenced it as an interesting space.
That allowed us to really key in and hone it as a …

Howdy everyone. SXe Fiend here and I would like to say that I am back editing on this wiki. Hi to everyone who remembers me and Hola to all of those who joined up when I was away.
I do not know how long I was away, but I know it was along time. I kinda just felt like announcing that I am back, though for a while it may not be full time. The reasons that I have not been for God knows how long is that I was at school and I was traveling between my Grandmas house and our house. My family and I were building a house and the majority of my free time was spent in that house. Also I lost my laptop on the train ride to my house one day (yelling fuck in front of a 5 year old was not the right way to handle it).
But some of the reasons no longer apply…

Video Games and Storytelling go hand in hand nowadays. Even the most violent of shooting games normally have a big cinematic story to tell. Red Dead Redemption, Grand Theft Auto, Halo, and Call of Duty have received a lot of praise for their stories and storytelling, even when being criticized in other areas. But why do we find Storytelling so important nowadays? Why does it seem standard that every video game, especially shooter games, need to have some kind of story?

- 2 Players Get Connected to Characters

I haven't got the pernament unlock token for my thirtd or fourth prestige now. I wonder if this is a common issue and if its a temporary one. It cant be temporary as its now happened twice. I'm owed two tokens which sucks as this could have been used on some really neccissary items for my loadouts.
Is there a way of contacting Activision to get this fixed?

According to Activision Publishing CEO Eric Hirshberg the next iteration of the series, Call of Duty: Ghosts, is to get an engine upgrade. "Infinity Ward set the gold standard for first-person action for a generation, and they're going to do it again with Call of Duty: Ghosts."
"Ghosts delivers an all-new story, all-new characters, an all-new Call of Duty world, all powered by a next generation Call of Duty engine, which is a leap forward for the franchise. Infinity Ward is going all-in to create the next generation of Call of Duty worthy of the world's greatest fans."
Whether this means that the IW engine will be getting a massive overhaul or if the IW team are outsourcing the engine remains to be seen. Either way,

ShopTo have apparently refused to stock Call of Duty: Ghosts due to a dispute with Activision. ShopTo asked Activision to send them the copies of Call of Duty: Ghosts on the Sunday or Monday before so that they could send the games out to their customers on launch day. However Activision's retail contract states that copies could not be shipped until a minute after midnight on the launch day, therefore meaning the games will not arrive for customers until after the release.ShopTo have therefore decided to boycott the release of Call of Duty: Ghosts, with ShopTo boss saying:

Hey, guys. Just so you all know this is my first blog post on this wiki (I have written SEVERAL on other wikis) so don't be hating on me. Similar to the 'Some zombie polls' blog by Damac1214, I will be posting polls on zombies. Let's get to it then!
I'm gonna have to say the Green Run Group on this one. I admit, Green Run wasn't the best map. But the characters are awesome in my opinion. Again, opinions.
For this one it's Black Ops. Ascension was by far the best, but Mob of the Dead looks promising. As a Season Pass holder, I will have to wait for Uprising, due to me being a PSN player.
Like I said above, Ascension was the best. Although Mob of the Dead does look very promising.

According to a report from Kotaku, anonymous sources suggest that Respawn’s game will come to Microsoft’s next-gen console and to Xbox 360, “but no versions for rival PlayStation and Nintendo consoles.”
The new Respawn is supposedly called Titan and will be made on a modified version of Valve's engine, not on internal EA tech or on /. (The IW engine was originally based off an Id Tech engine.) The 'source' also says that Respawn is only working on the Durango version of the game and is hand-picking a studio to make the 360 edition.
The report calls the title “multiplayer-centric” and “designed for multiplayer,” with sources suggesting that “the game is always-online.” (Because after Ubisoft, Diablo III and Simcity, who doesn't love always-on …
