    I think there'll be a "follow" button similar to what's on the Xbox for Ps in BO

    @marlow1994 At least 12 of them... Depending on how long your play sessions run .

    :p Hopefully it will live up to expectations.

    #AskJD will you be able to upload your theatre mode clips to the internet??????
    @TommiBwei Yes.


    Does this mean we can upload our theatre clips directly onto youtube? That would be sooo good and also sooo bad, it would make things so handy, but it would also mean youtube would be just full of random peoples Black ops making it very difficult to stand out

    This is good...We'll only get the best filtering through...

    Best of all we won't have snipers doing twirls like little girls trying to quickscope...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,654 ✭✭✭Thor


    The few videos i have seen online show alot of people still quick scoping. The fact is if its not quick scoping it will something else.

    The first time i saw a quick scope i was like WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTT

    Its look amazing when done, Everyone has to admit, Its not easy to do either and i think all who hate the people who do it, Are complaining because they can't do it themselves.

    The way i see it it, If you are not supposed to do it then you shouldn't be able to do it. This game will only be good if treyarch stay behind it and activitly stop people from abusing certain features.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 140 ✭✭Goat_Boy_jones


    I wouldn't want do to it, it looks stupid. Snipers are meant to shoot their enemy and move through out the map with out been found or seen... Not jumping around doing 360's like spanners... Just glad there's a big crackdown...

    I have do disagree with everything in bold there! It looks terrible, lots of people hate it therefore they dont think it's amaxing, it's easy to do and people hate it because it's not hard. As the developers say, "Quickscoping is a cheap way to play".
    I said it before on the other thread, I can't believe people think it's a difficult skill

    Snipers are only for big maps, Considering there is only a few that are even semi big.

    The thing is it doesn't matter what they are intended for, Its what they are capable of, If we are going by realism, Then one bullet from any gun should be enough to kill you, Also there is no such thing as stopping power. Meaning you can't add extra damage to your bullet.

    The fact is that quick scoping is one thing, Turn quick scoping is another.

    Why waste the extra second or two hard scoping when you are just as capable of taking the shot without it.

    I have no problem with quick scoper's and its requires skill, Its not something that makes the game easier for you and doesn't represent cheating in anyway.

    As i said before, If its in the game it should be allowed, the fact treyarch are trying to stop it means it won't be allowed, Simple as.

    Also a real sniper would camp, But we all hear people complain about that aswell.

    In no way is quick scoping easy, I can't imagine anyone who would think that, Yeah sure you might get few nice kills, But you will die easier in most cases, After i started quick scoping i learn that i was able to aim every gun better.

    Just like everything in the game, A glitch is patched out, except T.I god know why. If there is something wrong they will fix it. Quick scoping isn't a glitch, Its an ability, Sure you can't do it in real life, But in real life you can't survive getting shot with 10 bullets.

    Also if everyone could do it and it was alot easier then say using an assualt rife, Then how come everyone isn't doing it.

    I see people using any advantage they can get, Why wouldn't they use this one.

    Also it was Jd_2020 that called it cheap, considering he didnt make the game, and is works for treyarch.

    There are tons of things in mw2 that caused problems, Quickscoping is the least in my books, Everyone i hear complain about it, Can't do it. Its not a simple task and i does look better then drop shooting someone.

    Different strokes for different folks at the end of the day...Just glad its not in the new one...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,654 ✭✭✭Thor

    Thats the thing, It is in the new one, They stopped normal scopes from working correctly, Meaning they need to focus for a second or two before they are center.

    What people are going to do, Is just just an acog scope, Which will just keep the center focused all the time.

    Not sure what difference it makes, If you are aiming at someone and you shoot them, Thats pretty much the object of the game is it not.

    They do! Ok, not everyone, but in FFA there's always 1 or 2 people doing it.

    I agree that there's worst things. Boosting followed by noobtubing with danger close are the 2 things I hate, anything else including quick scoping is fair game. Although, along with knifing, I wouldn't respect it.

    Hopefully you can still quickscope in BLOP's, then you can prove that its so easy.. im sure getting 40+ kills doing nothing but quickscoping will be easy for you right ? I mean... i find it easy to get 40+ kills in a quick game of domination quite easy using any gun but a sniper. So yeah, cant wait for it, maybe you know something i don't. :)

    Think thats the thing im most looking forward to, the theatre mode. Not just so that people that whine "OMG ****** IS SO EASY LOL, ANY NOOB CAN DO IT", they can now prove it... but that'll be a bonus.

    comparing QSing to knifing is silly, you could knife from the very start in MW2 with no learning curve and do well, to get good at QSing there are a lot of rough games you have to go through as you get in anyway good at it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 140 ✭✭Goat_Boy_jones


    One of the head guy said quickscoping's not in the new game...Really looking forward to this now...Also boosting is nearly impossible to do with this new ratting up tool and theirs a 10 second delay of noob tubes at the start of every match... win win win

    I never play domination. Some times a quickscoper wins ffa, but so do plenty of other methods of play. The reason I don't like it is because its ridiculous seeing someone run around with a 50 caliber sniper rifle like its a hand gun
