Of all the new features coming to "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3," potentially one of the most anticipated additions that fans are also excited about would be the ban and protect system. It serves the double purpose of preventing reverse-boosting and at the same time, puts strategy at a good position when playing Treyarch's latest title.
However, the developer is far from finished in giving new details about "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3." In a new Twitter conversation spotted by Gamingbolt, Treyarch revealed that the weapons in the actual title are playable at the beta phase. In fact, the developer teased that the list of weapons are already very close to completion, which means an official announcement related to the beta is not far off.
A couple of things are also making a comeback, but with accompanying changes to them. The first are emblems, which are now created to enable linking and grouping. More importantly, the prestige system will also experience an overhaul, though the details are still under wraps.
As far as the multiplayer mode for "Call of Duty: Black Ops 3" is concerned, Gamescom has proved to be a venue for more leaks and new information. Apart from the eSports tools reveal, a new video has also appeared featuring 10 minutes of gameplay.
The new footage is shot from the PS4, and features some killstreaks and weapons in the mode, PlayStation Lifestyle reported. One common sentiment from fans regarding the video is that the overall feel resounds so much more like previous legacy titles in the COD series compared to the most recently "Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare."
"Call of Duty: Black Ops 3" is slated to come out on the PS4, Xbox One, PS3, Xbox 360 and PC come Nov. 6. The beta period will run for five days, first offering an exclusive access to PS4 players as part of the new Sony and Activision deal for the "Call of Duty" franchise.
