The lights are on
Supposed screenshots purport to show a September 1 multiplayer beta start date for Treyarch's upcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops. What will the official event happening tonight reveal?Leakerz.net has several screencaps showing Google ads and what seems to be a prematurely released front page for the official Black Ops site, both of which show the September 1st beta date. The Leakerz site doesn't credit any original sources, just that the screenshots were sent to them by readers.Black Ops community guy Josh Olin refuted the images, saying that no information in advance of tonight's big multiplayer reveal is legit. Olin also noted that everyone and their mother will be liveblogging and tweeting the event starting at 6 PM Pacific time this evening, so we only have to hold our horses a little longer.
Check back later tonight and tomorrow for Dan's take on Black Ops multiplayer, which we'll get posted just as soon as we possibly can.What do you think? Will Black Ops come out swinging with a beta and try to avoid the issues that plagued Modern Warfare 2's multiplayer, or will Treyarch hold their cards close until the game's November 9 release date?

Actually looking forward to this games multiplayer especially since there will be a beta maybe they will catch all the glitches before the games release.
I think they should have a multiplayer because then it won't be like MW2 with 100001 glitches and fixing guns perks and etc. I SAY HAVE THE BETA ! for all platforms so no fanboys be like "ps3 better we got Black Ops beta" and etc.
i hope they release the beta soon
beta beta beta
Beta all the way.
Hopefully the Newb Toob doesn't make it's return.
I don't believe we should hope. Treyarch MUST release a beta just to make up for the disastrous opening that MW2 had (even if it was IW/Activision's fault). Besides, a beta is just smart to do for any game.
I think treyarch is doing everything in their power to match up to or pull ahead of Infinity Ward's Modern Warfare 2. A multiplayer beta would be a great way to become superior.
They've gotta do a beta. It's always good to do
I wonder how you get access.
Beta FUN!
