    The graphics look a lot better than I thought from the preview clips when you see a full game in action, glad they've kept the MW2 look of guns as opposed to the weedy look of the COD4 ones, the detail on some of them is fantastic.

    With all these vids being leaked and the hype ever-growing for black-ops , i get the feeling its not going to live up to that hype , we'll all get the game and then we'll start bitcchin , and then the threads will start for the next cod ha ha .
    I hope its different from waw otherwise it will be kicked after single -player is completed.

    What do you mean "start bitching"? There's people bitching already! "dogs is a ****e killstreak", "the rc car bomb is unrealistic" etc etc!

    Glad to see that ninja pro makes you invisible from motion sensors and camera spikes more importantly, S&D wont be ruined after all :D Still think there should be a counter for ninja though

    Yeah actually, quite true. I seriously hope it's as good as MW2's.

    Ah bollocks, i panicked because my local xtra vision said they were all out for the first batch. Have to get refunded then.

    Nothing worse than thinking you can hear someone and you get the "we are winning this fight"* and the music that goes with it. I also hate when you walk into a room with a few people and after the first kill you get enough points to get promoted. The loud noise and your rank coming up on screen always puts me off.




    *usually it's "you are losing this fight"

    I would pre order it somewhere local and pick it up and release day, i went to my local XV midnight launch for mw2. Arrived at 11.55 expecting a few people but there was 50 people already in the store waiting :eek: Very unlikely to get black ops early unless you live in the uk because of it been out on a tuesday


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,009 ✭✭✭Shammy


    I'll have mine the day before :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,009 ✭✭✭Shammy


    So whats Shammy gunna do? SP, MP?

    Reset *caugh :p


    gotten all the cod games a day earlier , plug out the ethernet cable and play sp ;)

    Sorry if this was posted, but a flamethrower, wow.

    I think that controllable rocket will be annoying, as with the remote control cars.
    Though I just saw that they'll have what looks like a HK G11, case-less ammo gun, pretty cool!

    Fully expecting to come across servers to ban Marathon & lightweight being used together, on top of the traditional GL.

    FN Herstal only unveiled the gun in 2001 or so, so I'd say definitely not.

    Anyone know if the default AUG will have the standard AUG A1(ie the 1.5 magnification) sight? Wouldnt be impressed if it was just iron sights

    From SP footage (WDM mission) we can see the standard AUG A1 with scope, so my guess is yes but cant be 100% sure.
