Template:Infobox Call of Duty (series) Call of Duty: Black Ops is the seventh game in the series and the sequel to Call of Duty: World at War by Treyarch.

Version Differences
Call of Duty: Black Ops uses Steamworks, therefore, all copies of this game, regardless of purchase location, will register on your Steam account.
Further Modify Field of View
While Call of Duty Black Ops has a field of view slider in multiplayer, it only varies from 60 - 80 degrees, and it's not available in single player. SO, to further modify your field of view to a custom amount (let's say 90 degrees), you'll need to follow these directions as given.
First of all, go to your Black Ops player directory, found at:
Local Disk (C:)\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\call of duty black ops\players
REMINDER: Make backup copies of the singleplayer and multiplayer .cfgs before you edit them.
For the multiplayer .cfg:
- Open the file named config_mp.
- Use CTRL + F and type in "seta cg_fov_default", otherwise located in command line 83 if you're using Notepad ++.
- Delete the numerical value in the quotations and type in a custom variable that reflects the in-game field of view that you want (e.g. seta cg_fov_default "120" for a field of view of 120).
- Use CTRL + F and type in "seta cg_fov_default_thirdperson", otherwise located in command line 84 if you're using Notepad ++.
- Delete the numerical value in the quotations and type in a custom variable that reflects the in-game field of view that you want (e.g. seta cg_fov_default_thirdperson "120" for a field of view of 120).
- Save your edits and exit the multiplayer .cfg.
For the singleplayer .cfg:
- Open the file named config.cfg.
- Use CTRL + F and type in "seta cg_fov_default", otherwise located in command line 112 if you're using Notepad ++.
- Delete the numerical value in the quotations and type in a custom variable that reflects the in-game field of view that you want (e.g. seta cg_fov_default "120" for a field of view of 120).
- Use CTRL + F and type in "seta cg_fov_default_thirdperson", otherwise located in command line 113 if you're using Notepad ++.
- Delete the numerical value in the quotations and type in a custom variable that reflects the in-game field of view that you want (e.g. seta cg_fov_default_thirdperson "120" for a field of view of 120).
- Save your edits and exit the singleplayer .cfg.
