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.

VEVO Now THAT sounds fancy! But it sounds more like an Elite feature. It for everyone? This'll be interesting.

ya it will be cool but it will be in 240p


Probably better than that 360p at least


360p is... better than 240p? What are you smoking?
