Call of Duty: Black Ops II/Unused Text

This is a sub-page of Call of Duty: Black Ops II.

This article is a work in progress. ...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes.

HUGE amounts of unused leftover text from various COD games remain in Black Ops 2, including some from the first Call of Duty!

To do: Add rest of text from here.
