Be careful: There are leaks out there.

If you do see any of the leaked information about Die Rise, remember the rules and keep it to yourself. There are numerous videos on YouTube and there are a few things popping up on forums. Unfortunately I happen to know something I shouldn't (a few of my friends showed me) but I'll not be spilling the beans until the 29th.

If it's the stuff with the wagon, then it's fake anyway, so don't worry about that.

So very, very fake. I can't believe some people could believe it...

I physically cringed when I read some of the so-called 'descriptions' of the map.

It was pitiful. :lol:

Did any info from the Black ops 1 DLC get out to the public? (before the release)

Ascension was leaked by a guy over on the CoD forums with an elaborate story of how he was a "reviewer at IGN who got fired and decided to leak ascension". He got shot down as being fake and it turns out it was all correct.

But this leaked info about the wagons and stuff was actually confirmed to be fake by the guy who wrote it in his original thread on the CoD forums.

Why is all the stuff about the first DLC being ALLOWED on the forums? I thought CoDz was leak-free. Apparently I was wrong. I don't think it is real, which is even more reason to not allow it. But leaks are not allowed. *looks up to the multiple announcement denouncing leaks*

I'd assume that it's because the topics are in their own separate forum. You don't have to look at this certain forum, so I'd assume that it waves the "rule."

Even if they use that thought, it still isn't right. Because even when viewing in this forum, two threads appear up top:

viewtopic.php?f=100&t=21041

Simple, they claim to know the location of Tombstone, and yet only are capable of playing solo.

All this fake leak info seems to be getting deleted pretty quickly, the Revolution stuff wasn't actually leaked really, Gamestop weren't given specific dates that the posters were to go up on, meaning the advertising campaign started as soon as they received them, so it's not technically a leak.

From what I was told when I was staff, the things that are meant to be deleted are leaked screenshots/gameplay and legit leaked info about the game.

So it is the definition of leak that is the problem? I think that if Treyarch hasn't announced the DLC, then it is a leak.

Now you say since a GameStop released an early image of it, it should be okay? I highly disagree. Now let's just say this GameStop is at "fault". A person can be sued just as easily as a company can, ergo a person is just as liable as a company.

What if an employee of GameStop accidentally released an image in a back room on Facebook and people found it? Would that be a leak? I hope you say yes.

So an entire GameStop facilitates the early, unconfirmed release of some DLC. Would that be a leak? I think so. The entire GameStop violated the NDA, not just one person.

This of course assumes the image isn't fake...

Surely no one actually believed the "leak". Sure treyarch kind of messed up with tranzit in my opinion, but they would never redeem themselves by making a map where you ride a wagon! I think we all new it was fake when he said you spawn on a hill...

Again, Gamestop were not given a date to put the posters up, meaning they had permission, from Activision to start the promotion there and then, meaning it's not a leak.

[MysteryMachineX]

How do you know that? Is that just inference?

RaptorClaw141 the guy who posted the original image of the poster said that when he asked the manager of his Gamestop about it he confirmed that they weren't told a specific date to put it up.

[MysteryMachineX]

I still think that falls under the definition of an accidental leak, but I have no control over that and accept your judgment.
