[/img]Detailed information from a Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 pamphlet has allegedly leaked, describing a multitude of new features and mechanics present in the game’s multiplayer, single player, and Zombies modes.
The images describe a new “momentum-based chained-movement system” that will allow players to traverse the map in continuous motion using thrust jumps, slides, and mantling abilities, all while remaining in control of your weapon at all times.
Multiplayer maps are “built from the ground up” to promote both traditional movement and advanced maneuvers.
The new Specialist character system will give players the opportunity to “rank up and master each specific character’s battle-hardened capabilities and weapons,” promising three different progression paths, including the traditional XP and Weapon XP systems.
Additionally, the pamphlet describes a campaign that can be played co-operatively with up to four players online. The mode is “designed for co-op and replayability” with cinematic gameplay and open-area arena-style environments. Characters will also be completely customizable.
Black Ops 3’s new Zombies mode will revolve around an “all-new narrative” with a “full XP-based progression system.”
Additional Black Ops 3 promotional material that leaked earlier today suggests Treyarch’s shooter will launch on November 6 but will also host a Beta test on next-gen platforms and PC prior to release.
Even though I liked the emblems they used for Black Ops 2 zombies, there was no indication on how to actually progress in them. I would do consistent matches of 30-40+ waves with very few downs (I had over 4 million Zombie kills on the leaderboards, I played a lot) and I was only able to get to the knife rank. One of my friends played Zombies a total of maybe 5 times, and after one of the matches he was a shotgun rank. Wut? I really hope this next ranking system is a little more organized…
Edit: and for people who don’t know what I’m talking about, here’s a picture of the ranks (they progress starting from 1 bone all the way to shotguns):
That’s true, the more maps you played the higher your rank went up, I didn’t play much zombies but I had all of the map packs I played them all a few times and I had shotgun, but my friend loved zombies only bought the first map pack and played the hell out of it and he stayed rank 4.
