Mod tools for Black Ops confirmed

Category: Call Of Duty, Gaming News Tag: , , , ,  /

Treyarch have confirmed that Call of Duty: Black Ops will indeed have mod tools but not until after the game launches on the 9th of November this year.  pcdev confirmed mod tools on the official Call of Duty Forums:

We plan to open the game up for modding sometime post-launch. We do not know yet to what extent you will be able to mod the game. There are some purely technical issues related to engine and internal tool enhancements that do not easily fit the modtools paradigm. We have looked at it close enough to see that it is non-trivial and we will have to pick it up again post-launch. Right now we are completely focused on finishing the game.

And, dev console: confirmed.
