Man... It's just one mission, but still, I can't believe how the gameplay in this game's single player campaign is weak. I already posted my comments about it on Black Ops' review page here on VGChartz. It's just sad. I had such high expectations for this campaign since I really loved World at War's and it was made by Treyarch too.

Oh well. I wonder who's developing the next CoD game? Sadly, IW are never going to do the sequel to MW2...

Comments from a Treyarch employee that worked on CoD:WaW about that game can be found here: http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/e6xqm/how_scripted_is_the_action_in_cod_black_ops_you/c15ta4z

He posted these comments after seeing this video I posted.

Thanks for the link.

Something I find funny: "[...] Given limited resources, money, and developer time, the quickest "fix" to any given problem/bug was through level design and scripting. That's why the AI is such utter horseshit and everything is on rails: it's not worth it to "do it right."

That's bullshit. Infinity Ward at least had a good level designer for MW2! They managed to do a CoD game where you had multiple ways to do certain levels at least. Black Ops is just following corridors 80% of the time with a minimal amount of diversity in most levels.
