    I know grammer doesn't technically include spelling.

    Mod note:

    Drawing a line here. Either...

    1. Take your Irish history discussion to the off topic thread and be civil when discussing it

    or

    2. Take it to PM and be super duper angry over the the internetzzz. I couldn't really care so long as you leave this thread alone to Black Ops being bitched at.

    Thanks.

    Black Ops grrrr

    When are they going to fix the strella 3 lock on?

    I was in a game of domination against 6 boardsies and it was taking 1-2 seconds longer to fire than it should. Think I must have shot down/at 2 choppers and a heap of spy/counterspy planes. I know people will say that's nothing but when you don't run ghost it's an eternity. You aim wait for the magical tune to start and wait & wait till an enemy kills you.

    When it does decide to work it's awesome, Seamas and me got a door gunner in Havanna (a tough map to see choppers) just after he opened his door. The whole point of the strela is that is the fastest rocket from firer to target and it's usless if the law can fire almost instantly whilst you're there holding it on your shoulder like a tubular boombox listening to morsecode.

    I'm sure people will be up in arms if there was a 1-2 second delay to fire their primary weapon.

    There has to be some delay on lock on, otherwise why would anyone bother to go for high airborne kill streaks?

    I don't see how it would be equivalent to delaying the primary weapon.

    Forgot to mention this after the wager match final yesterday but god damn the M14 and FAL jamming if you fire quickly. I can't help if I'am naturally brilliant using either gun Treyarch :rolleyes: ;)

    M14 jammed 3 times on me in Gun Game. Irritating.

    There is an additional delay that it there to the lock on delay(which I accept), onomatopoeically:
    Normal:
    beep beep BEEEP Whoosh(Rocket away)
    Other times:
    beep beep BEEEEBEEEEEBEEEP, Whoosh
    or
    ...... ........ beep beep BEEEP Whoosh

    There seems to me that sometimes there are inconsistencies in the duration needed for lock on, the above happens or I aim down sights and don't get a lock on and have to let go and look down sights again for it to lock on.

    There is far too many variations each time I use it. There are no such variables with the Law and it has the advantage of being free fired. I'd just like it to be consistent not a lottery when I use it.

    This drives guns4hire mental. It penalises cheaters and the naturally gifted. I don't fall into either category so it doesn't bother me :)
    It's to stop rapid fire / modded controllers owning everyone with the M14 and FAL.

    Ah okay, don't think it has happened to me, unless obstructed in some way.

    I more hate when you are sure you just got it off just before you died (even hearing the whoosh) but it doesn't go (same can happen with grenades). That might be lag though.

    Stinger used to act up now and again in MW2 as well. Estate / Rundown especially you could hit nothing with it at times.

    Oh I know, and to a large degree I understand Treyarch having to implement this but as you eluded to, it punishes the likes of myself who can naturally use it like a full auto gun. I adored the FAL and G3(COD4) because not many use it or even give more than a go once. There was an element of look at me I'm outscoring you easily with this single burst gun vs your nooby and predictable set up when using it too :D

    Guns is a massive fan of the FAL indeed but he cannot use it anymore which is a shame as he was one of few who posted FAL gameplay in MW2 every now and again.

    I'm not fussed about the M14 but the contract can be a bitch of a bitch at times.

    while were on the subject of strella 3 , has anyone had the problem were its just about to engage then its starts to try and lock on again :mad: your just about to pull the trigger then beep beep wtf , i would not mind if i had an obstruction but i had open skys every time , this has happened to me loads of times ,

    Yup I knew there was another thing I forgot about it where it lost the target lock despite me having clear views of it and achieved a lock on previously. I was shooting down about 10 things in 1 game last night and had all manner of random sh*t happened when using the strella.

    I might put together a vid of what happened to me to see if it's on 360 alone or happens to the PS3 & PC also.

    The rocket/grenade not firing or reaching target /exploding after death happens to me all too often. I'm pretty sure that I fired (& died) 3 times shooting at a door gunner with the strella only for 2 to hit the target. I suppose it could be possible for the strella rocket to be shot down once fired by the door gunner as it firing directly at me.

    I'm on a 30Mb connect and just yesterday I got into a great lobby. No one had double or triple the next highest score, everyone was in and around the same.

    The crack in the lobby was great. Then about 4 people left and it all went down hill from there when new people joined. Hit marker after hit marker with one of the (new) players on 28-0

    They truly ****ed up this game and instead of it getting better its getting progressively worse with every so called patch.

    I think I'll get my Wii out and play Zelda :D

    You dont even have to be quick on the trigger in this game, its ****ing awful, i was doing nice controlled shots at range yesterday and the ****ing thing jammed after 2 shots. I dont know how anyone can use them without getting ****ed off after a few minutes. Normal guns were also jamming on me aswel, think it was the AK or maybe the m16. Think it was a bug, dont know if they've fixed it.

    The guns may aswel not even be in the ****ing game they're that bad.


    OHHHHH AND ALSO

    I was playing GW, raping face with that sh1tty double barrel shotgun. And some ****er shot me while capping B... there was another guy lying beside me, anyway as soon as i spawned i died to a knife !!! Looked at the killcam and it was the same ****er that shot me ! Trying to stab the guy on the floor.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 667 ✭✭✭DazzlerIE


    Often have that problem with the Strela locking on to things then randomly losing the lock before I can shoot

    It's generally care package choppers that I try take down quickly for the cheeky 400xp (and the chance ot have people's CP's fall outside the map :)

    You spawned on top of a flag? I've never seen or heard of that happening before. But there seems to be very random things going on since the last patch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 71 ✭✭Nantastic


    Heard of this alright, it's a glitch. Someone posted a video on you tube about it. You follow up the kill by stabbing the body. It's a game ruiner if it spreads and they don't fix it.

    nah i spawned at the other end of the map, its like what nantastic said... think i saw that video aswel with the tomahawk... i was baffled at the time :D

    Anyone having this problem!

    Played last night and all 3 games ended then instantly switched to lobby closed with no after game stats.

    When I checked my score I did not get any of the points I'd collected in the games.

    In one of the games I go a triple kill even though the game had just started and the score read 0-0 for both teams.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,846 ✭✭✭NufcNavan


    Worst Cod to date.

    Have given up on it. Played Tdm with a mate, just as the scoreboard came up at the end it froze for a good 40 seconds-1 minute due to host migration. The ps3 is at crawling pace at this stage, and then subsuquently neither of us can set up a party.

    To hell with this ghost-ridden game. Will only play if mates and myself can get a party going, but most of them have stopped playing too.

    because the host dashboarded. The only thing really wrong with this game is the community who don't finish games when they are losing. The fact that they still haven't done anything in recent CODs to combat this is a joke imo, but the real joke is the community of the game who instead of taking their loss like a man (or woman) will leave as soon as it starts to go sour.

    You see it in search when a guy gets killed early in the first round and there's an immediate host migration because he can't handle it. It's ridiculous.

    That could be the reason.
    In one of the games I got the message "Disconnected from Xbox live" just before the score board came up.

    If I can remember rightly, this has happened a few times before but only with Black Ops

    Ye, my connection on BF or MW2 is fine and reliable. I've disconnected completely from live on BOPs 10+ times, it must BOPs there's no other logical reason. I play BOPS just as much as both games.
