Black Ops 2 features in-game livestreaming and 'Shoutcasting'

4.5
Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 is looking to leave a mark on the future with its feature list, bringing livestreaming options into the series for the first time in its history. Developer Treyarch has revealed that Black Ops 2 will include the ability to stream and Shoutcast directly from the game on all platforms when it launches on November 13.

In the mode, two players can serve as Shoutcasters – otherwise known as commentators – for a multiplayer match. Though inspired by the eSports crowd, the mode is available to all. Players can shoutcast games live as they are taking place or add commentary to games saved in the Theater mode of Black Ops 2.

Delayed livestreams can be activated from the menu at any time, feeding the game to a web browser for anyone on a PC, Mac, or mobile device to watch.

Scanty I have a feeling the quality of the livestream isn't going to be that great. You're better off recording your live audio while you record your gameplay with a standard recorder.


it's not going to be the best but better then buying a cap card


True, Im still tempted to buy an HD-PVR tho. :/


I already have one :p

Still the quality will probably be pretty bad.
I'm planning on getting an HDPVR aswell but don't have the money for it. :(


Id go with a roxio still a good cap card imo

It's worth it if you record a lot. I have one, it's nice.
