Mark Lamia, studio head of Treyarch, revealed in an interview with MTV that there will be no coop in the campaign mode of their upcoming game, Call of Duty: Black Ops, due out Nov. 09, but promised that the coop modes will be a unique experience different from what people have experienced in the past. He also revealed that it will be different from the Spec Ops mode as seen in Infinity Ward’s Modern Warfare 2.
Mark said,
Single-player is the epic, cinematic, seat-of-your-pants thrill ride that you star in. Then there’s multiplayer, when you want to play competitive with your friends and really chisel and hone your skills and do that addictive experience. And then co-op is for when you want to have a blast with your friends, just sitting on the couch and having an awesome co-op experience. We’re crafting unique co-op modes around that experience, but it is different than what people think
Treyarch’s Zombie mode in their last game, Call of Duty: World at War was insanely popular and they are trying to up the ante in Black Ops which makes us more excited about what they might have in store for us at E3.
Call of Duty: Black Ops will be released November 9, 2010 on the Xbox 360, PC and PS3.
