Black Ops 2 Includes Stop Watch to Solve Ties in Capture-the-Flag

October 22, 2012 by Julie Horup

Default for 4×4 League Play.

Call of Duty: Black Ops II will support "stop watch" for Capture the Flag to settle disputes in Overtime, where two teams have the same score.

David Vonderhaar, Game Design Director on the game, said on Twitter that the new feature will be default for 4×4 League Play. It's also available as a game mode option in LAN and custom matches.

"Black Ops 2 natively supports what is often called "stop watch" in CTF. It is a very neat way to settle Overtime disputes," he wrote. "Short version. 2 OT rounds. In the 1st round, a capture "sets the time to beat" for the 2nd OT round. Teams switch sides every round."

"It's a game mode option in Customs/LAN and on by default for the 4×4 League Play playlist. We call that the "Champions Series."

The addition of the "stop watch" can be seen as just one of Treyarch's many innovations to the Call of Duty franchise, and hopefully one that allows the competitive scene to flourish more than ever before. 

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 is set for release on November 13. It'll be out on the PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 systems.
