With the latest installment of the Call of Duty franchise coming in November , we thought we would finally put to bed some of the questions we have on the new title, Treyarch’s Black Ops. In true BASH fashion, we do it dramatically. We dust off the dreaded “Red Phone”, something we haven’t used since BASH 123 and phone Treyarch’s Community Manager, Josh (aka JD_2020).

We piggy back the show right onto the end of CROSSHAIRS, our BASHandSlash.com Network live call-in show. We ask PST*Joker from mycallofduty.com and iBleedv20 of omnilinkit.com, CROSSHAIRS hosts to come in and help us in the call.

Some of the questions we ask JD_2020:

• What are people saying about Black Ops?
• Why wasn’t the MP reveal event streamed?
• What are some of the nuances in Create a Class 2.0?
• Are Wager Matches played on Wager Match Servers? Does that mean there will be three types of dedicated servers: Wager, Ranked, Unranked?
• Explain Combat Training.
• Will there be a competitive gaming mode?
• Can mods be made on day 1 of release?
• Will there be a client side (player side) config file?
• Can admins use third party rcons?
