Introduction To Call of Duty

Hey Guys! Welcome to the violent world of CoD, a game of guns and explosives. You can make your own class and play against other people in the world. A class is a place where you choose a gun, a secondary smaller gun and the perks and explosives you are given. We'll talk about that later on in the post. There are currently 9 CoDs out there, the 3rd - the rest are for PlayStation3, while the Xbox 360 has all of these and the second one too. PC has all of them, and the Wii has CoDs 3-5,7-9. The latest one is Call of Duty: Black Ops II.
2 companies alternate in making CoD, Infinity Ward, which is mostly known for its Modern Warfare series, and Treyarch which is mostly known for its Black Ops series. But CoD itself is owned by a company called Activision.



Starting from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (the fourth one) you could customize the weapons, attachments for the weapons and the perks you can use. There are different types of guns in the game; for primary weapons, there are Submachine Guns, Assault Rifles, Shotguns, Light Machine Guns, Sniper Rifles, and occasionally the Specials which only consist of the Assault Shield. Submachine Guns are small and portable and are meant for close combat, usually full automatic, but in Black Ops II there is a three burst SMG.
This is the PDW-57, one of the more popular SMGs in Black Ops II.
Assault Rifles are a little heavier but they have less recoil and work best in mid range, there are fully automatic, three burst and semi-automatic assault rifles.
Here is the Type 25, an assault rifle in Black Ops II.
Shotguns are for very close range, but when they are, they are deadly. The stronger ones are the pump action ones where you have to push out the shell when used by a pump motion, and there are also semi-automatic shotguns.
This is the Remington 870 MCS, a very popular shotgun in Black Ops II.
Light Machine Guns, ironically are very heavy and are like assault rifles, but stronger and a little more range. They are all fully automatic.
                                  
This is the LSAT a popular LMG in Black Ops II.
Sniper Rifles are for long range and are one shot, one kill. But the downside is that they take a long time to zoom in and are hard to aim with. The more powerful ones are bolt-action, and the weak ones are semi-automatic.

This is the DSR 50, a bolt action Sniper Rifle in Black Ops II.
The Special Class consists of only the Assault Shield with which you bash people and can block bullets with, but you have to right next to the person first.

This is the Assault Shield which you can plant in
 the ground and shoot over it with your gun.
But it can take damage and then you will be killed.
The secondary weapons are pistols, launchers and occasional specials, and machine pistols.
Pistols are for when your primary weapon runs out of ammunition, or your magazine runs out. They were usually semi-automatic but in Black Ops II there is a three-burst pistol and a fully automatic pistol too.

This is the Tac-45 pistol,  a very powerful semi-automatic pistol.
Launchers come with very little ammo, maybe 1 or 2 rockets, there are some used for shooting down, and there are others that just kill people.
This is the RPG, a very popular rocket launcher and has been in many CoDs.
The specials class in BOII consists of the Ballistic Knife and Crossbow, both specialties of Treyarch. And the machine pistols is Infinity Ward's Specialty.

This is the explosive crossbow with a sticky tip.
This is the MP9 from MW3, it is a fully automatic pistol. 
CoD also has perks which allow you to replenish your ammo from dead bodies just by walking over them or else you have to die or pick up another dead player's gun. Or they allow you to hide from killstreaks, run faster, run longer etc. 
It also has killstreaks so if you kill an x amount of people without dying you get a killstreak, which can be a helicopter, that kills the enemy, or a plane that reveals the enemy's position.
Well Hopefully you have a better understanding of CoD now after reading this post, later on we'll learn about clans, my clan, and more!
