    They're called motion sensors in Black Ops. Absolutely no need for them. Cool idea, but like you said, people actually using them online is just wrong.

    Even though it encourages camping, I think they are fine to use.

    I hated heartbeat sensors as it allowed a person constant UAV while moving. A motion sensor covers an area and that is it. Sure, you can move it, but while moving it you can't use it (unlike a HBS).

    Hi guys having problems starting an xbox live party or joining a party with one friend in particular but I can start a party or join a party no problem with the rest of my friends. It just keeps coming up "cant connect to xbox live party, there maybe network problems".
    Any ideas what the issue is?

    Ok heres why i think its better.


    Lack of overpowered setups - UMP with marathon/lightweight/ninja | Tac knife commando setups | Noobtubes with OMA/DC etc etc

    Killstreaks dont build, therefore its unlikely that you're going to be stuck in spawn traps getting ass raped by airsupport

    Balanced perks - Theres no Stopping Power typed perk that is a MUST !

    Private games are a million times better than MW2

    Wager matches are insanely fun, especially if your in a party... if not go for the high roller games, adds a bit of meaning to it.

    Customisation is far superior

    The maps... i personally think they're better but most people on here disagree.

    Theatre mode is ****ing awesome

    Combat record is superb

    I really like the sounds in the game aswel, the AWP sniper feels great and now that snipers in general are decent i think sniping is actually more fun in blops.

    Zombies is great craic

    Pretty much agree with all of that except for the maps.

    Couple of good maps in it, but excluding Summit.. the rest are uninspiring. MW2 maps just edge it IMO, and I wasn't a massive fan of MW2 maps.

    It's the perk of pros, hence why I use it what with getting arse raped in MW2.

    whole lot less campers in BLOPs than MW2 and they take more bullets to kill so they aren't as effective.

    Denser maps + non-building killstreaks + weaker weapons = more camping in my experience.


  • Site Banned Posts: 26,456 ✭✭✭✭Nuri Sahin


    Far more campers in MW2 IMO.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 180 ✭✭Benrobjohn


    I think there are more campers in blops as first to shot wins the fire fight regardless of what guns your using,unless you bad at FPS.

    Ben I think perhaps you might just not be that good at the game.

    Whatever about campers it'll be quite rare you get a huey or attack dogs etc by camping because sooner or later you'll be killed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,378 ✭✭✭Nodferatu


    everyone has their opinions, mine is that MW2 sucked the worst of all the COD's. it encouraged boosters big time. i think personally why people hate black ops (and this is just my opinion) is because they suck at it, they cant get their killstreaks stacked up, they were so reliant on things like spawn tubing//camping/stopping power perk and spawn trapping enemy teams to get their kills, not to mention the boosting that went on as i already mentioned


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 180 ✭✭Benrobjohn


    Do you play on xbox if you do join a game i'm in and i'll show you who's bad! it's to easy!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,378 ✭✭✭Nodferatu


    i have a ps3


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,055 ✭✭✭Cossax


    Ben is the best Boards.ie COD player so I doubt that's his issue.

    Also, yay for the asinine argument that you're obviously **** at COD if you don't like BO. :rolleyes: times a million.


  • Posts: 3,925 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]

    I wouldn't generalize but IMO, I think a fair share of people would be of that description. More than a fair share actually.

    I've played a lot of FPS games in my time and regards to camping - MW2 was streets ahead of the rest.

    Yes. Yes, if you are talking about a LAN event where everyone is on the same connection.. which I doubt.

    Lets be honest there's plenty wrong stuff in this game for both consoles btw

    The Treyfail were on to somthing but they ****ed up the end product, they said they'd listened to the gaming community but I highly doubt that tbh

    I wouldnt have last stand, instead I would recommend painkiller.

    Scoping is still broken in the game, having a hitmarker with the L96AW on the upper body is ridiculous

    There is still so many bugs in this game from not muting in the pregame menu to the dreadful frame rate. This is rookie stuff, how this developer group got a franchise this big so wrong should be questioned by the big wigs in Activision but they'll just look at the sales and wont care.

    Maps are ****e I feel. Now mw2 had bad maps but they're nothing on black ops I feel

    Now claymores. I use them myself but mostly when im snipping which make sense, so I wouldve let snippers have claymores only

    Nerf the ak74u is one I would like to see. Make the shotguns better.

    thats all I can think of at the moment, bound to be more

    I dont think ill buy another cod game if its made by treyfail that's for sure
    especially ps3 users have been been treated like second class citizens

    I only got killed by 2 tonight but bloody hell does it annoy the **** out of me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 56,089 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    *check the report forum*

    you know what i annoys me is when someone on my team tonight had a rc as a killstreak rather than a uav which we needed at the time

    righly pisses me off

    Have not been able to get into a game for the past two days. Just stays stuck on "Found 50 game lobbies. Getting match quality..." or something like that. Stays like that for ages then says no sessions available. Can't join any parties, lobbies, games in process etc. Won't even work in zombie mode.

    What an absolute cúnt of a game.

    I really think it's easy killing 90% of Last Stand users. I do agree it should be removed though.

    Only unlocked just there playing with you guys. I'd say out of 50 shots tonight. I had a couple of hitmarkers. I pleasantly surprised with that.

    As said before, I truly only love playing on two maps(I did say one earlier mistakingly). That being Havana and Summit. The rest I'm neutral over.
