			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>My understanding is Gameservers.com will have the monopoly on dedicated  servers at the start. many I have spoken to say Gameservers.com with be  the only provider. I think it is unlikely.. here is the latest poop  from Gamestop..<br />
<br />
Here's everything we know so far in one handy place!<br />
<br />
Black Ops is  coming out November 9th, 2010 for PS3, 360, and PC.  Treyarch has said  that unfortunately there isn't a public beta planned  at this time.<br />
<br />
The max rank of Black Ops (at least in this internal beta) is 50. No word on Prestige Mode.<br />
<br />
There are dedicated servers, lean, and will be day 1 mod tools.<br />
<br />
Dedis are rented, no mods allowed on Ranked play (official content only). Unranked play can have mods/custom maps, etc. <br />
<br />
Max players for ranked play on dedicated servers according to GameServers is 18, unranked max is 24.<br />
<br />
Black  Ops will have cheat protection in the form of VAC again, meaning  the  game will be attached to Steam. No official word on if VAC bans  from MW2  will prevent people from playing Black Ops and vice versa.<br />
<br />
New  game mode: Wager Match. Players bet their COD Points and play in  one of 4  new game modes with the hope that they place top 3 and get  more cash  than they had before. Players who aren't top 3 don't get  anything. These  modes are further explained in the Wager Match vid  linked below, and  are intended for adrenaline junkies.<br />
<br />
Players level up which  unlocks the capability to buy things with COD  Points, which is the  &quot;cash&quot; you wager in Wager Matches. You can buy  weapons, equipment,  perks, killstreaks, and character customization  options.<br />
<br />
Players  can also buy Contracts which are time limited challenges that  you  purchase with COD Points (CP). There are three categories of  contracts  -- Mercenaries, Operations, Specialist. Each are tied to  certain play  styles and in-game achievements.<br />
<br />
Customization Options:<br />
-Change the color of the reticle — red dot doesn’t have to be red or a dot.<br />
-Emblem  editor – images, layers, and a background. You change the  scale, move,  color, rotate, all that stuff. Create layers, then  purchase the option  with COD points to put it on your gun<br />
-Can engrave words into guns.<br />
<br />
Secondary weapons are exclusively pistols, crossbow, and launchers only. (Ballistic Knife is a pistol)<br />
<br />
Equipment and Special Grenades are now separate. <br />
<br />
Launchers - M72. RPG. Strela. China Lake.<br />
<br />
Lethal Grenades - Tomahawk. Frag. Semtex.<br />
<br />
Tactical Grenades - Willy Pete. Nova Gas. Flash Bang. Concussion. Decoy. Willy Pete is smoke.<br />
<br />
Equipment  - C4, Claymores, Tactical Insertion, Jammer (acts like  Scrambler from  MW2), Camera Spike, Nighting Gale (makes a fake red dot  on the radar),  Motion Sensor<br />
<br />
Perks unless mentioned otherwise are currently similar to their MW2 counterparts.<br />
<br />
Tier  One Perks - Lightweight. Scavenger (doesn't refill Tactical Nades  or  Equipment). Ghost (Cold Blooded). Flak Jacket (can't be one hitted  by  explosives, slight juggernaut effect). Hardline.<br />
<br />
Tier Two Perks -  Hardened (no clue yet). Scout (Iron Lungs from COD4).  Steady Aim (will  have a different pro effect since Iron Lungs is in),  Sleight of Hand,  Warlord (Bling)<br />
<br />
Tier Three Perks - Marathon. Ninja (no heart beat  sensors, has the roll  effect?). Second Chance (Treyarch's Last Stand,  differences from IWs:  if a guy on your team has this perk he can revive  you, if you get  gibbed by something VERY strong, you don't go into last  stand, you just  die). Hacker (Sit Rep). Tactical Mask (reduced effect of  stuns/flashes  on you).<br />
<br />
Tier 1 Perks affect how your character looks, Ghost gives you a ghillie suit, Flak Jacket gives you body armor, etc.<br />
<br />
<br />
This leads us to today’s announcement - <a href="http://forums.gameservers.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&amp;t=40527" target="_blank">Call of Duty: Black Ops will definitely have dedicated servers</a>. That is, as long as you get them from gameservers.com. We can compare that with Henry Ford's legendary statements that <a href="http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Henry_Ford" target="_blank">customers can have a car in any color as long as it’s black</a>. The gameservers.com statement goes,<br />
<br />
<i>   &quot;GAMESERVERS.COM SELECTED AS THE EXCLUSIVE DEDICATED SERVER  PROVIDER  FOR CALL OF DUTY: BLACK OPS. GameServers.com, in an exclusive  contract  with Activision and Treyarch studios, announces that they will  offer  dedicated server rentals for the upcoming Call of Duty: Black  Ops  release scheduled for November 9, 2010. We are extremely excited  about  this unprecedented relationship with Activision to offer  dedicated  servers exclusively for Black Ops”, says David Aninowsky, CEO  of  GameServers.com. “We are placing a great amount of pressure on  ourselves  to ensure that we exceed any and all expectations.&quot;</i><br />
<br />
 What does this mean? It basically boils down to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activision_Blizzard" target="_blank">Activision Blizzard, Inc.</a>   still wanting control over what kind of content is played on the   servers and not allowing the development community to do as they please.   For gamers, this means that there won’t likely be many if any mods  much  like MW2. The exception, though, is that there could be a  possibility  for a competition mode of the game, but that’s still, of  first, last and  only resort. <br />
GameServers.com effectively have a monopoly on COD:  Black Ops server  hosting. They also have limited the ranked multi-player  to 18 slots  just like MW2. If in theory want to have more, you can pay  for an  unranked server for $.99 per player per month.<br />
<br />
 So, for  those of you that thought that Treyarch and their announcement  of  dedicated servers would bring back life to the COD franchise,  Activision  appears to have made sure that they limited it to the point  of not  really being dedicated anymore. This appears to be yet another  game that  has been ruined by the narrow mindedness of management that  only wants  to see margins and deliver dates rather than a good game.  This, in the  end, will hurt Activision greatly as they are effectively  killing off a  franchise on a platform that it originally started on.  Interestingly  though, it looks like Activision Blizzard is desperate to  repeat the  curious case of Electronic Arts and their fall from grace.<br />
<br />
If MW2  didn’t leave a bad taste in gamers’ mouths, there’s a good  chance that  the way Activision is handling Black Ops may. Here is also a  new game  play video of COD: Black Ops that was just released.</div>
