[ALL] Call of Duty: Black Ops

[Twigg4075]

I think early on in Xbox Live's life, maps would eventually become free after a certain period of time. I know I took advantage of this with Halo 2 and some other shooter.

That was a looooooooooooooong time ago.

 

[IamMedellin]

Yeah, when were maps ever free on consoles?

in Gears 2, the flashback maps[4 gears 1 maps] were free

Completely disagree. You can't work the edges strategically because there are no edges to work. I'm not saying the maps suck....I just don't like how most of them are layed out the same and seem to small and geared towards run and gun. IMO it's just as fun to play on a small map like Boneyard as it is to play on a lrage map and use more strategy on a map like Safehouse, Wasteland, or Depot.

I find it pretty easy to work the edges on Black Ops. The action is very fast paced and i don't have a problem with the maps. I was just never a fan of huge open maps, they give too much power to campers, AR users, and Snipers, and they totally make SMG's obsolete. Outside of the UMP(which was just like an assault rifle), there was no reason to every use assault rifles on MW2 because the maps were just too huge and you could never close the distance. On this one you can close in on who you need to, but Assault Rifles are still very effective. You can use any type of weapon and do well(outside of a sniper).

I'm used to the fast paced gameplay from all my time playing COD4 so the hecticness of these maps do not bother me at all.

If anyone has played MP with a friend, have you had any trouble getting into games? I was playing with my cousin last night and we both had our own gamertags and it took forever to get into a lobby.

EDIT: For split screen, sorry.

I've been killed by a sniper rifle once since i started playing online. Thats crazy... i have never seen a COD game with so few snipers.

Servers have just been weird lately. And thanks for posting this. I wasn't sure if you could use separate gamertags in split screen.

 

[tigstah]

Fixes already live:
- Villa: User can clip into rock at west edge of grid zone B2 and see through to the other side
- Crisis: User can clip into LVT between grid zone A3 and B3 and see through to the other side
- User can get an infinite number of 'Sam Turret', 'Care Package' and 'Sentry Gun' killstreaks (commonly referred to as the "care package glitch")
- Radar sweep when there are only 2 players left in One in the Chamber will stop functioning if the 2 players have multiple lives when the sweep starts
- Crash when viewing content (films, clips, etc) in the Community & Recent Games menu
- Users' rank and stats can get wiped under very specific conditions
- Online number counts were not updating properly; these are now reporting exact online numbers
- Parties getting disbanded when host did not find a match quickly

Fixes in progress
- Improved matchmaking to find matches faster
- Improved match and host selection; will result in much better networking conditions for all games (a.k.a., decreased lag)
- Weekly and Monthly leaderboards stats reporting incorrectly for kills, deaths and assists (All Time leaderboard not affected by this)
- Additional improvements to party system

 

[MvP]

They need to improve the god damn spawn points.

- Parties getting disbanded when host did not find a match quickly

Still haven't noticed this being any better.

 

[FirstTimer]

I didn't pay for any last year on MW2. What ones was I missing out on?

 

[MmmmBeeeeer]

I didn't either, PS3 store sharing ftw

Sniping in this game is retarded. There are a few major problems with it.

1.) :turrible: hit detection. Ok this game is already notorious for it's hit detection (which isn't helped by the host selection problems either) and I find more times than not I'm staring at an enemy head, pull the trigger and poof, miss.

2.) alm: pistols. Outside of the Makarov and the Python, they are absolutely useless. If you take away both QS'ing AND shotguns as secondaries, you have to leave scavenger with the ability to pick up Claymores. The way it is now, Snipers are completely unprotected = .25 ~ K/D = not fun.

Sniping in COD is pointless period. And the pistols are fine to me.

So what are the good guns?
