[CoD Black Ops] - MegaBitch thread

Sniping is way too awful.

Map cycle doesn't work. I keep repeating the same maps. I played 3 hours COD clock time and I only played 6 of the maps.

It still keeps picking me as host, even though I don't have a connection to support hosting.

I have spawned in an Rx cars view twice, I saw it in the kill cam.

Nope.

THE LAG IS SO ****ING BAD. Holy ****.

How bad are the spawn-points and spawn camping on Nuketown? You can tell in the first 30 seconds of any team deathmatch there which team is going to destroy the other just by spawn camping them.

Anyone else not fond of the CoD cash concept? I preferred the old methods of getting equipment.

I said earlier this game is growing on me,I take that back,completely pissed off with it,lag is worse than it's ever been,keep getting into American lobbies,way behind everyone.been looking forward to this for ages and it's just a letdown for me.

Does anyone elses games freeze for a few seconds on the treyarch logo on start up? Thinking my disk may be faulty cause its lagging a little even in split screen ( im on ps3, it doesnt do it on 360)

Kersmash

Mine does that too.

Anyone having problems with not being able to hear people in your party?

Cheers good to hear im not the only one, Yeah i can hear no one in a party but once you get to the game you can hear some people but its random, Not a word from treyarch on the lag on ps3, ridiculous

Nuri Sahin

Microsoft have paid another $50 billion to sabotage all PS3 copies of Black Ops

Only reasonable explanation.

In other news.. single player on veteran makes me :mad:
Process of veteran = enemy grenade -> enemy grenade -> enemy grenade -> enemy grenade and so on with an endless supply of the bad chaps.

I am on ps3, i havn't had one problem what so ever, no lag or disconnecting problems and i' ve been playing since the midnight launch, its a fcuking deadly game, favourite call of duty to date!

Yeah, don't really see the point of having to get to a certain level for a gun and have to pay for it.

baldymac

i have been suffering from bad lag

i also feel the guns feel fake compared to mw2

it feel its like an upgrade on MOH for some reason

shooting feels very jerky

i know mw2 has its probs, but its better in different ways

+100 on this!
Also the sounds from the grenades are rotten and the normal weapons.
so many campers in the game hidding behind corners and spraying you with 200 rounds as you run by.

The claymores are junk as well.
Not diggin the balistic knives either.

Cossax

The melee distance is insane, ffs!

Also, getting a party into a game is difficult at the best of times so far, tempted to head back to MW2 for a few days till this sorts itself out.

baldymac

maps are to big for certin game types like S&d

im liking it so far as much as i would





i honestly prefer mw2

even with all its problems


you are juts playing a better version of MOH


graphic not as good as MW2 and guns are poor soting wise

true i agree, maps are huge an when u die spawn the is bad, pisses u off


poor gameplay from shooting

expected a lot better

baldymac

takes to many bullets to kill

Kersmash

I loved this game last night. Now it just seems like a great big pile of shíte.

baldymac

i have just tried playin ffa an the aiming an shooting is a joke

its just like MOH upgrade

docdolittle

Although the campaign was awesome with only one or two hiccups (like soldiers stuck in a t pose because the game decided to spawn them, but not let them move... I think the multiplayer is pretty bad so far...:(

Bad points:
The running/walking sound is off for me constantly, it just plays two steps, stops and waits 2 seconds and then plays again. the music that just randomly appears when playing so i can't hear whats going on..

The guns for new players aren't anywhere as good as previous CoDs. It's still a camp fest. Melee feels like it's commando all over again. Spawning is really bad, way too many times I've died within 3 seconds of spawning Sniping is just horrible now, don't know what they did, but I loved sniping before (I'm not a quick-scoper btw :P )

They still haven't even fixed the connection issues, the whole game stopped about 3-4 times tonight and everyone just got thrown back into the lobby and my mate got kicked twice when we went into a lobby out of nowhere when we were partied up...

Good points:
I'll leave that for the sunshine and lollipops thread

now dont get me wrong i like the game but am i only one who thinks it was rushed?

Or perhaps they were just lazy.

Either way, going solely on campaign. Rushed or lazy, it's poor.

Multiplayer I'll judge in a month or two. No point giving a definite opinion atm. Lot of people are either fully condemning it or overly praising it already!

krudler

Lots of gripes with it so far, but the difference maker between this and MW2 is if Treyarch patch them, remember its launch day, the servers are going nuts, small things like knife distance can be patched, if Treyarch live up to their word and listen to the community and patch whats broken like they said they would then it'll be good.

yimrsg

Straight in, no bs.

Multiplayer.
The broken match making system when in a party/ group chat. Seriously why bother producing that many games for sale if the servers/ whatever isn't capable of supporting all the players who bought them? We had 6 people in a party, in about 4 separate games. Seriously do games makers not look at what works and what doesn't work? Why do a beta at all?

The unnesessarily convuluted game setup screen with about 4 sub menus and none of the game options easily customised. Also why can't other players in a party, apart from the host see we're searching for a match? Often I'm led to believe the host is /dead/ choking on something/ afk and not searching. I genuinely don't care for the host but I do care about his 4/5 bar internet.

Singleplayer.
Finally, the campaign was one of the worst I've played in a while (I'm not discussing the story). All too often a magic bullet would zing me and kill me without so much as a warning or a bloody screen. Then I would restart and go through a protracted unskippable scene to get to the point where I died, and then the same magic bullet would get me again. Repeat X times. So I changed the difficulty down. Same result. Repeat X times. So I change difficulty down and get past annoying part. Then I'm left with me on easist mode running around with no option to readjust the difficulty back up. A genuinely useful idea not completely utilised. Maybe next time do a betta beta.

Continuing on from that was the limitless waves of attackers till you get to a certain area/ checkpoint; was also tedious (read f***ing awful), it was done to death (my countless ones) in COD2 and it's still there, whoop-de-f***ing-dooo. It was lazy game design then, it's very lazy/poor game design 5 years later. Couple this with allied AI with the cognitive functions of burnt toast and you have an nice big RAGE sandwich, mmmm tasty.

I'm glad I didn't get all hyped up with this game as it would have come across as a massive let down, now all it is a let down. Someone said we should have gone on and played MW2, I would have but I was p***ed off with gaming enough to consider opening a book.

Liking the game so far.

I don't think they are a patch on Infinity Ward as far as graphics and animation go.
This game is more cartooney.....MW2 is just far smoother.

It has a lot of good features though that IW should take note on.

Cossax

Trying to get a game going with a party = :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Kersmash

The SP in this game is more frustrating than MW2 online ever was.
