Treyarch provideo tips for DOMINATING Drive-In on Demolition

Squeeze in tight, soldiers. The movie's about to begin and we don't have much time before this place goes up in smoke. Once the fighting begins, it's our job to make sure things don't get out of control. Protect the bombsites with your life and you can have all the popcorn you want.

Drive-In's tight map design makes it difficult for the attacking team to rush right in and plant a bomb in the opening moments. Combat erupts early and often, resulting in a constant tug of war to see which team can better overwhelm and distract the other.
Site A
Right in the middle of Drive-In's open expanse, the attacking team is forced to expose themselves to plant the bomb. While this gives defenders the advantage, prepare for the enemy to use every tactic available in order to secure the objective.
Willy Pete
As the most obvious form of concealment, attackers often employ the Willy Pete in attempt to cover their tracks. Many players toss the smoke and then race and dive to prone for extra cover. Grenades are the most practical counter. Toss to the side of the crate for the best chance to hit, as most players will hide behind either side of the long section for more protection.
The IR Scope, while less flexible overall, offers more precision, especially helpful against enemies using Flak Jacket. If you go this route, be sure to replace your secondary as quickly as possible for better survivability in close quarters.
Flanking
While snipers will inevitably take to the high points to keep the middle ground clear, speedy run and gunners favor a less direct path, especially along the less used 4 column. Watch for flankers peaking out from the trailer in C4, or coming around from behind all along the D row. If they get the jump on you, they'll push you back into your spawn point and buy time for a plant. Be prepared and use a Tactical Insert if you're having trouble holding them back.
Site B
Where the A site requires a more tactical defensive approach, B favors fast and explosive skirmishes. The team that keeps up the pressure comes out on top, but there are a few things you can do to turn the tides in your favor.
Hunting Tactical Inserts
Tac Inserts are a favorite for any Demolition map, and the same goes for Drive-In. Luckily for you, there aren't many hiding places in the area. If you start noticing heavy use, switch to Claymores for a free kill when they respawn. If you'd rather not give up your own Tactical Insert, equip Hacker and destroy any you see to keep the enemy at bay.
Spreading Out
The battle for B doesn't have to be a line-to-line fight. Have a Lightweight and silenced SMG loadout ready to swarm the enemy side and start surrounding them. Use the arcade at C2 for cover and rush into the opposite building when there's a lull in the action.
Land some kills against unsuspecting attackers to buy more time for your allies to regroup and defend. The Ballistic Knife can be used to great effect here, especially helpful for fulfilling the Melee Kills requirement for Lightweight Pro.

CoD: Black Ops UK Clan Qualifier

The winning clan in the 32 team elimination qualifier will earn an all expenses paid trip the Call of Duty XP event in LA and will earn a place in the $1 million Call of Duty: Black Ops Tournament sponsored by Xbox 360.

The UK qualifying event will be held at the Sound Nightclub in London's Leicester Square and you can sign up here.

When the stealth clown himself, robert bowling, was asked about changes that have been made to melee combat in Modern Warfare 3 by a twitter user yesterday he had this to say- “Its been balanced, plus Commando is no longer in the game. Beyond that, you’ll have to wait and see.” Now let's just see if this jackass can actually do his job effectively this time around. 

Dog tags in Battlefield 3 have been given an overhaul, not just in the way they look but also in how you collect them.

They will be completely customizable meaning everyone's dog tags will be unique making them like a calling card and adding extra weight to taking them.

“We have hundreds of dog tags that can be your personal calling card. Every time you kill an enemy, they see your tags. It’s your calling card – it’s your place to brag, and dynamic tags can show off how great you are with a knife, a jet, or even show off your personal play style.” explains Alan Kertz.

In Battlefield 3 simply knifing your opponent will not be enough to earn their dog tags, in order to take them you will have to get the jump on your opponent and sneak up behind them in order to perform one of the new knife take downs, netting yourself their dog tag.

“Takedowns encourage players to get in there for stealth kills, and makes bringing a knife to a gun fight the risky but rewarding experience it was always meant to be.”

Notch, the creator of the infamous Java game, "Minecraft," has posted some images featuring an all-new mob appearing in the upcoming 1.8 update.
