Story Draught in a war shooter?
Black Ops mainly refers to the 50s and to the conflicts of the Cold War, in which we assume our Black Ops team always delicate jobs. While there is still time and location and jumps the character change several times, the story remains coherently and even with real depth. In the form of memories of the individual characters we experience the inserts in different places on Earth. Whether we wade through the streams of Vietnam, infiltrate in Siberia during heavy snow a military facility or fight our way through a bombed neighborhood. Unfortunately, while the unrealistic unerring AI opponents nervous too often. A welcome addition is the fact that one hears talk their own protagonists now that they play this time relevant for the history person.
As usual bombastic
Usual, we are the very good presentation and enthralling staging of the individual game sections. The background music fits and starts every mood a well. On the other side stands the German dubbing. Although known German speakers provide good feeling, but you get the feeling that the talks partly do not match the situation. For this once more come the extremely patch Russian accents, which we have long been tired.
Despite the now older graphics engine Call of Duty is a feast for the eyes. The graphic was drilled something and we can admire a lot of detail, sharp textures and amazing effects again. Among others, especially the water and the mud in the jungle of Vietnam is represented perfectly realistic. Call of Duty: Black Ops is the first game of the series that can be played in 3D. However, this is only possible with the appropriate television and related 3D glasses.
Shooting fall to
At this point, however, it must be mentioned that but hang us for a long time this kind of first-person shooters to the neck. Basically, it's but despite great production and excellent feel always the same, run and shoot in the same atmosphere as with Call of Duty 1. This is exactly why you make it but barely, as a game for over an hour on piece to play. Other genres and first-person shooter with a different background to evolve and offer rudimentary exciting innovations, but Call of Duty comes into things gameplay for years in one place.
The game does Black Ops but good: The possibility in splitscreen play together and to master even the struggle for survival against Zombies is super implemented. Commendable is the fact that it is one of the few games that lets you with a buddy on the couch and can compete against other players online. Thus we have already arrived at the multiplayer mode. The good multiplayer from the predecessor now continues even with Black Ops, Treyarch has even improved it with skillful extensions. The best feature is the Einfühung the COD Points. Thus Ausrütungen and extras to buy. Weapons are, as always unlocked at Rank ascents, but the player can decide what he buys. These points are earned by the rise in ranks. These points can also be invested in jobs that drive the profit further in the level.
Conclusion
Call of Duty: Black Ops is a great game, no question. Yet above all the single player mode is nothing new in the genre, a war shooter precisely. Granted, the story is this time even acceptable. The presentation is usual very good, this time Treyarch has put on the old graphics engine, and this improved a little. That looks very good, but not skin your socks because the look but very reminiscent of the predecessor. The multiplayer mode is top notch, as it motivated from the outset by the ingame currency. Splitscreen players also come at your expense, because they can even play online together. Now it only remains the bad news for buyers of the German version: The battle for survival mode, in which you have to co-operative action against zombies, is not compatible with the foreign versions. Also, the game has been greatly cut into many points to make it suitable for the German mass market.
