Call of Duty: Black Ops

[RavenSEAL]

I can't even play right now my PS3, game keeps freezing and disconnecting and disbanding parties and really pissing me off.

 

[Anubis]

yea was annoyingly bad last night as well took us forever to get 3 people into the same damn game, its actually getting worse

 

[RavenSEAL]

Honestly, the only point in which black ops doesn't freeze is when it's not in my blu ray drive, f****** POS game. Time to go back to Bad Company 2...

Black ops mp really does blow and it is getting worse. I only do combat training with my friends. that is the only way to get a lot of time in playing.

PS3? On xbox it's got some issues but overall it works well enough to play as much as you want.

It's complete shit on PS3, at times, most of the time.

Yeah, Treyarch is giving PS3 owners the shaft right now... more patching needed for sure.

Was getting tired of TDM and the shitty spawns so I decided to have my go at Demolition. This is probably my new favorite game mode. Other than the occasional douchebag that plays like it's TDM, it's a lot more fun and focused.

As long as there are people actually trying to play the objective, having a "slayer" is a good thing. But if everyone is just going for kills, it's a fustercluck.

I'd really like to compare my personal bests with you guys. My friend who is clearly 3x better at this game falls behind on most of my personal bests, so I want to see if I just have abnormally high bests or not. Some of them don't seem like it, but some do actually seem pretty high. The only best I have missing is tomahawk kills because it's stupid to use the tomahawk and I never will, except in wager matches which do not add to your personal bests anyway.

See, I don't put much stock in the "most" stuff. All it tells you is the best you did one time. I think a broader look at the overall, or even the average, performance in TDM and objective games is more telling.

And I've noticed the long shots are less common in BO too. I've chosen that contract a few times, thinking "eh no problem" and never get it.

 

[Malak]

I think I've only gotten it once. And even though the most of stats don't show how good a player is, it's still worth noting in various cases. Like getting 2 detonations in demolition is pretty dang good and not exactly an easy one to do.

Losing connection with the host is my only real issue, and it is either happening all night or rarely at all. I wish they'd patch it soon. Party system still buggy a bit too. Otherwise, loving the game. Wouldn't go back to MW2, there's maybe one map in this game I don't like and I hated playing on a lot of maps in MW2. Plus I LOVE the crossbow.

Good point. For the objective games that number is key. But again, if you only did that once and every other time got 0-1, well...

Are you handtyping all this? haha just trying to find out before I go in and try to get that info manually

What do you think about this?

Too easy to no-scope

[PimpJuice]

Then why not just play TDM?

Most people that do that either suck at deathmatch or need to play objective games in order to improve their k/d.

And super easy to put a dot on your tv so you know where it will shoot. People have been doing that for ages, since the CS days, so nothing new.

i have definitely been in games of demolition where nobody on my team even cares about objectives. They just run around going for kills. makes it super hard to win. I know K/D doesnt matter in objective games and isnt recorded but it apparently is recorded for overall. I know i used the galil a ton playing demolition so i have a crappy k/d with it from that. Wish K/D wasnt recorded at all in objective games. Theres games ill go negative k/d but then i have 4 or 5 plants/defuses too.

Is there somewhere to check your over-all K/D ratio? All I can find is your stats for each particular game mode.

Another set of fixes are coming around. The Treyarch thread says it will go to MS on 12/6. MS approval can take up to a week, and then prep to roll it out can take another 2-3 days. If we're lucky, we'll have this live by mid-month.

On to the changes:

Issues Addressed:
• Resolved several issues with parties getting disbanded unexpectedly.
• Updated handling for UPnP-enabled routers to improve matchmaking conditions where users had strict or moderate NAT types. Also added in-game communications so that all players are aware of their NAT type in the Player Match party lobby.
• Addressed issue that prevented the “Load MP by Default” option from saving when other specific option combinations were set.
• Prevention of exploit that allowed players to keep custom classes and killstreaks after prestige.
• Addressed an issue where Flak Jacket Pro would not always protect against ground fires left by Napalm Strikes.
• Prevention of users losing their killstreak reward when switching classes at the start of a new round in round-based game modes.
• Addressed an issue where the incorrect perks would appear when spectating another player under certain circumstances.
• Added round start explosive delay to China Lake grenade launcher to give it the same round start limitations as other explosives.
• Contracts will now reset when the player Prestiges.
• Prevention of Valkyrie rocket exploding upon release under rare conditions.
• Prevention of Gunship failing to give player full control under rare conditions.
• Prevention of an issue where a player will get teleported outside the map boundaries under very specific circumstances.
• Additional security measures to enhance detection and banning capabilities.

Gameplay Tuning:
• Limit the ability to re-roll supply drops using Hardline Pro to Care Packages only, no other killstreak drops.
• Added a negative influencer to all spawn points to decrease the chances of spawning near an enemy. This will further improve spawning protection on top of previous updates.
• Additional sound mix tuning for Ninja Pro users – increased ranges and volume of enemy footsteps, and removed player footstep sounds on concrete material types.
• Increased headshot multipliers for sniper rifles. Sniper rifles with suppressors equipped will now always be ensured one-shot kill headshots.
• Subtle increase in sniper rifle accuracy when scoping in.
• Added a render delay to the red diamond player indicators that appear when controlling the Gunship, Valkyrie Rocket and Chopper Gunner. When a player first spawns, this will not appear for a period of time.
• Additional minor reductions in knife lunge.

These are some pretty big changes. I think I'm most excited about the knife lunge fix. I got lunged a few times lately, but one time I had a RIDICULOUS lunge on a guy. I mean it practically beamed me up to the Enterprise and shot me back down with my knife up his ass. I felt bad for him But not that bad

• Increased headshot multipliers for sniper rifles. Sniper rifles with suppressors equipped will now always be ensured one-shot kill headshots.

Thank you. I know these games aren't that realistic but I've always been irked by the fact that adding a silencer to a .50 cal sniper rifle can't get a one-shot kill in the head.

just goto your playercard - combat record -- its like the second tab. shows win loss k/d etc..
