Doesn't surprise me that this game is still alive, honestly. MW2 is a decisive game, you either love it or hate it. BO2 was praised to be the best Call of Duty game to ever be made. Not by me, MW3 is still my personal favorite, but my friends and I played this game probably for a good 5 years.

Black ops II must have taken up a lot of my time when I finally had Xbox live, like it’s insane, it’s my favourite cod and was probably the only one I was excited to get the DLC for as opposed to feeling I needed to get it

[@spadesofpaintstudios1719]

Only real issue with bo2 is all the mods 😂, and then you have the times to plus because sometimes it’s 1000-3000 players. Bo2 really does deserve a remaster especially because that many people still play and the game is still fun with its multiplayer and it’s a simple game unlike anything we have now really. Most of the time I hop on I just stick to zombies as mp can be well tedious lol. Good video and comedy as always.

[@cameronbaker97]

Maybe it will be remastered in 2025.

[@SMKurama]

BO2 was literally the last ever cod to cater to every single community. Casuals, Pubs, Snipers, Trickshotters.. god the good ol times.. Waiting for sm2! Also thanks for the uploads merk! :)

[@HDXY2015]

I literally bought this game on steam 3 days ago to play with my friends. Now Merk makes a video, what a coincidence.

[@j_hicks01]

The best CoD ever in my opinion hands down. Sniping was at its prime as well as trickshotting. I remember getting this game Christmas morning in 2012 and it was the best feeling ever to come home every day after school and play this game with the homies and just play all day, everyday during the summer break. Ahhh the nostalgia.

[@viktorjonsson26]

Sniping and trickshotting was far better in mw2

[@rachelgriffiths3159]

I wish they would remaster this game but like keep everything the same lol

My brother and I would play hardcore just to get team mates kicked. We’d find teammates using things like claymores or whatever the planted explosives were and we’d kill ourselves by sitting in front of it and shooting it. Only took 3 and the person would get kicked from the match.

They could even add new skins and cosmetics if they wanted to make money like they do now.
