1. About This Guide
--------------------------------------------------------------
This guide is for those that are having trouble with the Black Ops
difficulty in this game. I'm only going to focus on where each objective is
found in each level. You'll have to deal with the enemies yourself as you
go along. The enemies shouldn't be a problem since they're pretty much the
same as on Hard and especially since you have infinite ammo and an M16A2.
Just launch a grenade at everything. :)
Also, make note of the fact that you won't be able to follow this guide
step for step. Something is bound to be destroyed out of order from my steps.
But it's not that big of a deal. The most important thing is that you have
the correct number of objectives before each checkpoint. Anyways, on to the
first level.

24 - Continue on until you reach a breakable wall. Blow it open and also blow

the next room. Take either path and continue through the tunnels. Find
the small side tunnel on the left and take it until you get to a room

But before taking it, turn left into the bunker for an Intel on the
ground. Continue down the circular tunnel for a checkpoint
Checkpoint
[Before I go on, it seems that a lot of people are having trouble with the last
room. My strategy is to grab the M249 in the tunnel and move to the entrance
of the room. Stay in the tunnel so that the doors don't close behind you.
From here, do headshots on everyone you see. You should be able to kill a
lot of enemies, even the shield guys, before you even set foot in the room.
Make use of the regenerating health (if you have only one bar of health left,
it goes back to two after a few seconds). So when you have only one bar
left, run back up the tunnel and let it regenerate. After the shield guys
are done with, enter the room and head up either stairs to your left and
right. On the second floor, head into one of the small rooms. From here,
take out the RPG guy. Continue to make use of the health regeneration and
you'll do fine.]

level. Look up to your left to find a safe
==============================================================
3. Miscellaneous Stuff
--------------------------------------------------------------
- To reload without getting the blurry vision, quickly press reload, melee,
reload. A better way to do this is to press the "pick up weapons" button
right after pressing the reload button
- When you're under fire from surrounding enemies, you reload faster.
This works for most but not all weapons. Some weapons have a more
noticable effect than others
