    This game is utter garbage. The sound is atrocious. Footsteps sound like you're walking about in soaking wet squelchy shoes. Guns sound tinny and soundwhoring is impossible.

    Graphics are blocky and poorly shaded, they use overly pastel/cartoony colors to mask the fact. Maps are utterly uninspired, plaza and the boat map being two of the worst I've ever played in a COD game.

    Lag is bad and character movement in between host migrations is shocking. Its nowhere near twitchy/responsive enough. Playing on 10 sensitivity on this is like playing on 4 in MW2/MW3. I hate the pick ten system as well, why complicate an already almost perfect system?

    Very disappointing game.

    Is league play the biggest failure in COD history? 600,000 people online last night with 6000 playing league play or 0.01% of the total community. Its all they talked about in the run up to the games release and this codcasting thing is only for people who are popular already. They must have realised this and made the snipers super easy to use to please all the 10 year old quickscopers.

    Didn't even know there was a league play feature !!!:)

    On the plus side it appears Gun Game is still there though I have yet to try it. Gun Game was awesome on Black Ops 1

    I agree...in tdm you can actually look down on the other team as they spawn below you. Slums/carrier are two of the worst maps in any cod. Head glitch fest. Bouncing bettys everywhere.

    It's doing my head in... The head glitching and spawn killing is gone mental. Can't get run of games together at all. Do well in one then get destroyed in the next. Don't know if it's the lag comp or what? I'm losing 1v1 even when I get the drop on them. Whole mags pumped into them and they drop me in 2bullets.

    If your on 3 bar your ****ed on 1 v 1


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,732 ✭✭✭Magill


    They really made the SMG's/shotguns and AR's super easy to use.. any noob can pick up an SMG and do well now, i reckon they did this to please all the bad players who complain about snipers/quickscoping so that they can continue to outscore them by a country mile... oh wait.. its always been like that :P

    I ****ing hate that smg's with laser hip firing ****e

    Fair enough if your in a building but when your killed from a distance using the above its ****ing disgraceful tbh

    I was playing a match on raid there and I lost a 1 v 1. Me using the AN-94 and the other smg with laser+hip firing. I go into ads and other person just uses his hip fire. Guess who won....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,791 ✭✭✭CptMackey


    Connection lost is the biggest pain in the hole ever


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,426 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    I actually like it when it works but the lag can be atrocious. Last game last night literally could not kill anyone. Had to rage quit and play MW2 for an hour just to calm down.
    Also think I've forgotten how to ADS, what's the point?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    Absolutely cannot get a win streak going in this game, play a map, do well, same map comes up in the rotation again, get destroyed. You slow down your pace of play and you get wrecked by guys hip fire spraying all over the place, you try doing the same and lose every 1v1, its headwrecking. it is far more gun v gun than previous cods as aside from millions of uavs, hunter killers and care packages you dont see many of the higher killstreaks, I'ev seen two people get vtol gunships without getting them from packages and one attack dog streak since launch.

    In Tdm....I've never seen dogs or a swarm or anything high really!!

    This ^^^ basically sums up the whole game, well for me anyway. Playing headquarters yesterday and went something like, 50-10. Next game, same **** lobby, 20-22. People just hip firing like crazy. Constant UAV's, shock charges and bouncing bettys everywhere. Engineer is now a must for me, as is a laucher for those bloody UAV's. And like krudler said, the higher kill streaks may aswell not even exist. Everyone just runs UAV, hunter killers, hellstorms and lightening strikes. Got killed yesterday twice by the same lightening strike :mad: Seen one set of dogs, and haven't even seen a vtol yet.

    As for the lag, that certainly doesn't help. I don't know what the hell is up. I pump about 5 bullets into someone and find out from the killcam that I didn't even get a single round off. I can play any other game online flawlessly, including fifa, madden etc...and every other cod game.

    I liked the game at first, and even think it has the potential to be good...but at the moment I just find myself jumping into online zombies when I'm on, which funnily enough seems to be lag free :confused:

    This is exactly how I feel about the game. It's like I'm good one min and rubbish the next. It has to be the lag comp. when I play battlefield and i die then I think ok bad idea taking on a tank on my own etc. in this tho, i get the drop on somebody and still get destroyed. Feels cheap

    Multi player is a wash out. Stick to the campain mode and try and find all the intel on your own. Far more rewarding :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17 agentcrow


    Yup thats it i'm out finished with COD really disappointed with this edition:mad: see what i get for trading it in..

    Honestly if it wasnt for the lag and inconsistency with 1v1 I'd be loving this, its the best online cod in years imo its just fun to play when it works properly. streaks dont dominate, there isnt a super cheap noob class and aside from headglitching there arent many annoyances. Treyarch to their credit fixed a lot of stuff thats been wrong with the series for a few games now.

    engineer and black hat are essential on every class for me, silence/ninja whatever its called is pointless since you cant hear people even when their footsteps arent silenced :pac:

    I got a swarm from a care package yesterday and the f'ing crate landed on top of me killing me. I got back to it just in time to see some f**k teammate steal it :mad:

    blackhat dude, I've started throwing care packages out of the map or onto rooftops on purpose now.

    You're better off using Engineer and throwing it into the map and changing it if you don't like what they give you at first. Just like Hardline pro.

    do that too :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,147 ✭✭✭PizzamanIRL


    Did you ever play so much zombies that the sound of them screaming and screeching is stuck in your head when you stop playing? Playing WAY too much.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,475 ✭✭✭✭Blazer


    really enjoying it so far..it's a huge change from MW3 which was hugely confusing with the menu system and I've loving the revamped create a class menu.
    I've been bitching about COD since MW2 and at least Treyarch are going in the right direction...now if only they'd drop that P2P ****e.

    That's my only complaint really.
    I've always thought that if it played like Treyarch and looked and sounded like Infinity Ward it would be a good compromise. This is fairly close to be honest but the connection issues are f**king up what could make it the best since the first Modern Warfare.

    Edit: Just as I say that I'm getting a message on screen: The Call Of Duty Black Ops 2 server is not available at this time please try again later.
    F**k off.

    It's up to Activision and as I've said numerous times before, it'll be a cold day in hell before that happens. Harsh but true.
