Oh jeez, random drops.

Also, something about "reinforcements"? Sounds like the burn cards from Titanfall, kinda.

EDIT - Good god these guys are loving corny, I can't stand the totally-not-scripted "jokes" they keep throwing in.

Customizable scorestreaks sound crazy.

Create a Class looks very similar to Blops 2, yeah. And the 0 to 4 scorestreaks thing confirmed.

Oh, God, Co-op streaks, I foresee one poor bastard actually capping points halfway through the game and everyone else up in the sky.

And, uh, Aztec Deathball?

So if you pre-order, or have pre-ordered, you get the game one day before anyone else, and double XP for that day.

Danger Close was in BO2 and Ghosts.

loving right!

I'm sold on this game just based on the modes alone. That is the single biggest reason I quit playing Ghosts. They took out all of the modes that were halfway decent and left us with Blitz, which although it looked good on paper, it ended up being incredibly lovely in practice.

CTF and Hardpoint should have never been taken out. Even if Momentum and Uplink end up sucking, it's nice to know we'll have some solid classics to fall back on.

When they added "You can have 4 scorestreaks" to the system, I swear I could hear the erections of goons everywhere.

So running 0 scorestreaks will allow you to have a super soldier with a ton of perks?

Nah, you still gotta pay for the Wildcards like in Blops 2. I guess you could get to 6 perks without giving away your gun and hoppy suit that way.
