Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

It's unlocked. Maybe I'm not looking in the right spot.

When you go into your combat record just hit right once and it should be come up.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

All depends on who you talk to, you got a good number of MW2 diehards who whine about this game being too hard because they can no longer do their cheesey tactics.

perfect. again, exactly what i like to hear. i couldn't stand MW2 with all the BS.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Meh, couple more things bugging me about this game.

1) The spawns are utterly ridiculous. I can't count how many times I've been shot in the back because everyone on the other team spawns behind me. It makes flanking virtually impossible, which is what I do.

2) Just like in World at War, the SMGs are somehow better than the assault rifles. Nothing pisses me off more than getting hip markers 3 times with an M16, only to have a guy kill me with half a clip from a MP5k especially when it happens at long range.

3) Supressors make you gun way to weak. It shouldn't take 3 or 4 shots from an M16 to kill someone. It's supposed to minimize range, not damage.

In combat training, can you play against bots only? There is afriends option that doesn't go below 1. Thanks.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Is zombie mode available off the bat? or do we have to pass single player campaign first?

You can play it whenever you want to. Only one level available unless you unlock the other two using "cheats" if you want to call it that.

You can play it with friends. I was playing that with a buddy of mine earlier. Just make sure and make the difficulty harder because the recruit level is WAY to easy.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Saw a statistic while waiting in a lobby that said "black ops players have collectively fallen the height of Mount Everest"

haha I love those stats on the bottom.

I saw that too, I love those odd little stats on the bottom, my favorite is that there have been almost 16 thousand metric tons of grenades thrown.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Well... played about 2 hours of online and about an hour and a half of the campaign.

I have to say, the online is GREATLY improved. Pretty much everything that was bad about MW2 has been fixed, although there are still some annoying things (Last Stand, RC CAR). I am not great at it (1.25 to 1), but I wasn't that good at MW or MW2 either, and I have only played probably 5 of the maps. How many maps are there in all by the way?

As for the campaign, it is still too early to tell for me. It honestly feels like a shooting gallery thus far. But, I think I like where the story is going, although I don't really understand some of it thus far. It is still kind of over the top and cheesy, but it's entertaining thus far. It feels like it might be pretty short though (hopefully I am wrong).

QFT, my thoughts EXACTLY.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

I know this is gonna sound dumb but on PS3 if you have a claymore how do you place it? It says up on the D-Pad but then what button do you hit? Thanks if someone can answer me.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Anyone know whats up with the stats? I'm at level 25 currently and my stats are showing that I have 14 000 kills? There's no way that can be right. Also, I don't think the kills you get with your killstreaks count towards you KD ratio, because i've had monster games where most of my kills were from killstreaks and yet my KD went down... stats seem messed up to me, what are you guys seeing?

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

I love the game so much better than MW2 couldn't stand that game at all. Every game has it's flaws but overall I enjoy the multiplayer. I play to have fun and relax not take anything too serious. It was fun playing with some of you OSers today.

Sounds like you are looking at the leaderboards instead of your combat record. I'm not sure how the stats work on there. Look at your combat record for the actual stats.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

So... I am constantly getting lost on the map "Crisis". So it is currently my least favorite map.

On the other hand, I like Nuke Town, the Ski Lift one, and the one the has the train moving in it so far.

EDIT: Just played the Night map (Hanoi) and that is my new favorite.
