    From what i have read there are too many people online, so alot of people like you and me are being rejected.

    That could be it, I noticed there were 741,000 people online last night, have never seen it like that before! It's ridiculous that with the billions theyve raked in on sales of this game that they neglect the community in this way.

    Matchmaking has been terrible tonight. Every game you join your either on a 1 or 2 bar connection. And constant freezing on the lobby screen. ****ing joke.!

    Enough is enough. I went out and bought Sniper elite v2 on the weekend. Not playing COD multi player for another while if at all.

    This is probably a stupid complaint, but does anyone find that there's way too much sh1t blocking your view on some games? like on Plaza, if you're running anywhere on a domination game you have the A B and C flag markers right in the centre of your view almost constantly, i find i have to look off centre a lot and you miss guys at times, its kinda hard to describe

    Yup. Never really noticed it on other CODs but it's really distracting in this one.
    I really neeed to get some real life problems 'cos complaining about this type of stuff is getting really petty.

    I've noticed that once or twice alright, not that major an issue but annoying all the same.

    People playing Domination but not playing Domination is such an annoying thing. I get the top score in pretty much every game and can nearly single-handedly win a game just by being at the the objectives. There was a kill whore who went like 40-1 in a game there the other day on the other team and I still finished ahead of him with a 24-26 or something game and won the game. Some people are pathetic, you'd swear there wasn't enough game modes where you can camp kills and actually help your team.

    B bomb demo on Lockdown (mw3) was the worst! The B sign completely blocked your viewing of the balcony thingy above it.

    What they need to get rid of is those stupid skulls when your team mate dies.

    :eek: Those skulls are extremely useful for finding out where your team mates were killed from/where the opposition are, especially when they're using silencers.


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


    Horray I'm not mad then :pac: Its only on some maps, they should fade the markers way down when they're in your line of sight, they do fade but not enough, or just have them vanish until you look away again.

    I think its the layouts of the maps, on the other COD's they're all different but a lot of them on Blops are just similar on either side, I know a lot of people hated Estate but I like maps like that, uneven terrain and isnt all just building block corridors, or Afghan, its totally different on either side.

    Meh don't mind those so much, they're handy if you see a teammate run into a building and die, I know they vanish off the minimap too but sometimes you might not be able to tell wherebouts if you're off someplace else.

    I am disappointed with the maps in this game too.

    Just played a few games there and wondered where all the good designs were gone? It's like they pay too much attention to the maps now. Everything seems so micro-managed. Compare that with the likes of Crossfire, Strike, Crash, Shipment, Overgrown, Cliffside, Castle, Terminal, Favela, Highrise, Scrapyard, Skidrow. Even a few modern maps from BO1 like Summit and Firing Range as well as Havana were good. I had more faith in Treyarch to develop some good maps but damn....

    The old maps had buildings of multiple levels, BO2 along with MW3 just feels like you're running around a garden maze by yourself and every so often you happen to run into someone. You can no longer get on the roofs or anything else. By making the game so beginner friendly, they've actually taken all the fun out of their design sheets. I've never felt more alone on a map with 18 people...mad.

    I know what they're for. I just wish they weren't in the game. My teammate vanishes off the map, he also makes a noise too. No skulls would make it a lot easier to flank.

    That's a great description of the Blops2 maps, now there's some I like dont get me wrong, but look at Plaza, its got no multiple levels, there's two small roof areas but thats it, or that train level, 80% of the map is indoors its completely pointless for air support, and yet all the Domination flags are on the strip of the map thats open air, whyyyy, not all the flags needs to be outside, look at maps like Terminal and Highrise, at least one flag has good overhead cover.
    Yemen is my favouite map in Blops2, its got multiple routes, small choke points, big(ish) areas, plenty of cover, high areas and plenty of nooks and crannies, its a good mix, compared to that snoozefest of a map Turbine, good lord who approved that bag of sh1t. Its like they tried to make Afghans retarded cousin. The sightlines in the majority of the maps are garbage as well, its like the purposefully made an area with a clear line of sight, then stuck loads of sh1t in the way rendering it pointless, where are the "no go" areas like the cross map sniper spots on Highrise or corridors of death? Annoying they may have been but at least they kept the games entertaining, when you can run from one end of a map to another and not spot a single enemy player there's something amiss.

    Playing Demolition on Express get my AGR and start heading down the ramp to B(the last target) and some twat on my team starts blocking me completely, first off thought maybe it's not intentional and went around the advertising sign and he moved across and blocked me again, took around 30 seconds for someone on the other team to kill him so I could move on, then managed to get some kills but had no chance of winning the round!

    Some teammates are infuriating!

    have often played that map and go for a jog,with all the snipers camping its often been 2 minutes before the first kill happens.And its normally me jogging by a fukking sniper sitting in a corner(but thats what they do!! go ask me bollix :pac:)

    Not aimed at anyone specific but I find it funny when people give out about quick scopers and in the same breath give out about snipers camping... They're sniping, camping is exactly what they're supposed to do ffs


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,427 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    I've never had a problem with quick scopers.
    99/100 you'll murder them over the course of a game with an AR/SMG.
    I like sniping. I don't do it much but when I do you'll find me hiding in a bush being very very quiet.:rolleyes:

    This.

    Though I must also say if there wasn't some sort of quick aiming ability on the snipers then they would be fairly useless and I'd gauge that 9 out of 10 times people say they have been quickscoped it's been someone aiming in and taking a quick shot with a sniper i.e. looking down the scope. It's not easy to QS with the snipers in this game whereas it has been made a lot easier to properly snipe imo.

    People just get hung up on campers, I do it myself where I call out "what a camper" but really it's just me annoyed at dying and looking for a way to absolve blame for myself. A lot of people who have problems with snipers don't use them too. It's the same people who will rage quit when they don't get an easy ride in games. Just a warped community really and the whole lobby system should be made more like Halos which actually penalises people for constantly leaving.
