[COD Black Ops] - Patches

iMuse

First thoughts, Footsteps seem louder, Have to wait to call in RC Car if team mate has one already on the go, damage seems a bit nerfed from it aswell. The framerate problem is still there slightly on ps3 but it seems better, it also finds a match in like 3 seconds

The hell? I came into this thread and thought I'd become a mod and nobody told me :pac:

please god I want my sound whoring back

Fair play to Treyarch, they're backing up what they were saying about not letting massive glitches and stupid hiding spots on maps go unpatched.

woot, audio levels being fixed for footsteps! now if they just completely beefed up the audio for choppers and not made the Hind sound like a printer with a paper jam when its firing it'd be great. Me, kersmash and headpunk were talking about this in a game the other night, the chopper gunner in MW2 was crazy loud, just bambambambambam constantly, same as the ac-130, that awesome sound of the main gun roaring down on the map was brilliant, yet the choppers in this sound like lawnmowers.

Tomohawks still bounce so i take it this isnt the proper patch yet or they havent bothered nerfing it

Maybe it's down to one bounce now (at least, I hope it is, Bank Shots are so much fun )

Also, does anyone understand what is meant by

- AK-74u damage reduced by one bullet at all ranges
- MP5k damage reduced by one bullet at close range
- G11 damage reduced by one bullet at all ranges

By bullets, does it mean the little orange squares on the Create A Class screen, or would it be X post-patch shots being equivalent in damage to (X-1) pre-patch shots?

- Fixes to the matchmaking system (PS3 and PC)

For the PC, I hope this means that it actually finds a server that's not already f***ing full! I don't think the Find Server option has ever gotten me into a game, just "SERVER IS FULL" crap over and over -between that, and no apparent option to choose your gamemode, I just got sick of it and stuck with Server Browser

So far what Ive noticed is when voting for a map you cant vote for the previous map. This could just be a glitch thou. Happens only sometimes. Sound is massively improved. Can hear footsteps

Guns seem the same and tomahawk does not stick in anything.

Ps3 is a complete shambles , no fix for the lag/stutter.
Played 2 games there , got kicked from one and the other i couldnt see in front of me.
Once again the ps3 fails with the development of a big game.

According to your tag you have BO on PS3 and XBox? :eek:

I've not had the problem you have had at all. In fact I host most of games. It's probably your connection.

PS3 doesn't fail with the development of a big game? That's rubbish. PS3 didn't develop it. It's more than likely your connection.

Nice roll eyes that's really cool dude. Really reaffirms your point that it's not your connection...

It more than likely is your connection. It's working fine on my PS3 and many other peoples. It's not the PS3's fault, it's yours.

Ping of 18 to what server? You try ping the BO server? Doubt you have. Most likely pingtest.net...

Those confirmations were for the Xbox only, I'd say the ps will be updated soon seeing as they already started updating the different platforms.

i had the same problem for a while and went through the setup for putting the PS3 in a DMZ last night and it has helped a lot. (i don't know if you did this already but could be worth a try)

Ok maybe i was a little harsh in the previous post.

It s the frame rate that is terrible on the ps3 which causes it to stutter. I also know many people with the same problem.Have you not seen the amount of people complaining of the same problem ?

Its not a connection issue as its perfect on the xbox , even when i host on the ps3 its still the same , there is a slight difference when i come down from a 1080p hdmi to a compontent 1080i.

LOL didnt realise you were such a fanboy , i take you only have the ps3.
It is known that graphics are better on the 360 , in certain games.

in fairness shammy, you are coming across as a bit fanboish. Its a well known fact that activision suck microsofts dick HARD ! Its hardly sonys fault that treyarch have prioritised the 360 over the ps3, the only reason that there are more games that run slightly better (We're talking 2-3fps... hardly gamebreaking) on the 360 is because they are developed for it firstly and then ported to the PS3, the graphics being better on the 360.... meh, the difference is so minute that its not even worth comparing.

It is a connection issue, not on your side but with the black op's servers. Again this has nothing to do with the PS3 itself and is completely on the developers back.

Also, i havent had any frame rate issues for 4 or 5 days. The only problems im getting (Not sure if hte patch has fixed any of it) is random transmission disconnects and the horrible party system. The game runs pretty damn smooth when i actually get into a full game..... i was kicked from a game of domination yesterday at about half way, i had 65ish kills to 5 deaths and was on a 6 killstreak... trust me... i was ****ing pissed !!!
