has blops gotten easier?

    I took a break of about 3 weeks over Christmas from blops (mainly drinking and asscre-brohoo) but went back and played a few hours of it in the last few days and it seems to have gotten much easier.

    Is it just in influx of people who got it for Christmas or does the game seem to have gotten easier?

    just for reference, my KD has gone from 1.12 to 1.18 across about 4 hours - with about 5200 kills in total.
    I think in about 2 hours yesterday i went from level 45 -> 49 (second prestige)

    I'm now getting about 30+ kills per game, with the odd flawless thrown in too, with scores above 3000 fairly normal.
    I'd a couple of bizarre games of DOM with 9 cap's an 8 defends :-O

    or is it just that i've got ub3r l33t sk1llz all of a sudden?

    Christmas newbs are great :D I'd say you're just getting better tho, usually play better when you come back from a break of playing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,411 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    I had this in MW2.
    Started off awful, got better, got worse, got better again, then slumped.....etc
    Sometimes no matter what corner you turned there was some evil little git with a claymore and akimbo shotguns and other times you'ld be thinking "I've finally cracked this"

    Yeah my K/D has been on the steady rise over the last week or two.

    Gone from around 1.48 to 1.61 over the course of the time, although a lot is probably down to playing with a party of BRDS lads, which I have to say was serious craic! :pac:

    Very true . I find that if I play black ops all day, come the night I'm very sluggish . If I start playing round 10 or 11 at night I usually play very well.

    If he pulled it up from 1.12 to 1.18 in a couple of hours he must've gotten games with a higher K/D of 1.18.

    Taking a break from it usually does me good, n00bs or no n00bs!

    As long as I break even I don't mind. Don't care about Kdr that much, especially so when playing the objective ;)

    Imo, W/L > K/D

    Agreed. Much more satisfying to take a hard fought objective with a clever strategy than to have a good k/d

    I posted this in about last night thread (ps). Some 13 year old yank was going on about my 18-33 score in Demo on Summit with 2 plants and 1 defuse. He went 72-10 or something (I hadn't ghost at this stage, nor a strela) and lost.

    I know what side I'd prefer to be on tbf. :)

    Did I miss that?

    Yup was I think Friday night? Beertons, Balfie and I were playing against some yank lobby, Balfie had to quit because he was glitching half way across the map due to a poor connection.

    I think it certainly has gotten easier over the last week or so, I was getting my ass handed to me constantly, and now I am suddenly getting more kills than usual.
    I used to get no warning before being killed, and at least I now have a fighting chance.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭opinion guy


    I take it back - I was getting absolutely creamed last night.

    very hard for me to find out my true K/Dratio as my kid plays on my profile, he spends most of his time walking around saying OMG double rainbow:D


    but i find it mad easy now.
