Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Agreed. Why Treyarch continues to have that perk in the Call of Duty franchise is beyond me... they listened to pretty much everything BUT the removal of last stand. They removed Martydom, Stopping Power, Juggernaut, killstreak stacking, you name it. But when it comes to Last Stand, oh no we can't do that...

It gets annoying for sure, but it's better in this one as at least they have a bit of a delay. Nothing well ever be as TERRIBLE as martydom.

Also, random thought. So I was playing Hardcore TDM at Nuketown, and happened to get Rolling Thunder in a care package. Which is kinda unfortunate, because using it is a guarantee you get booted since it wrecks EVERYTHING on the map. But I did it anyway and got booted. Got the enemy kills first though

True, I should have said that. OS family saved others from problems!

I have no problem with last stand - but the only thing left imo is to get kills during a knife animation. When I'm filling you with bullets you shouldn't be able to kill me an walk away alright. That is the single most irritating thing to me.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

No doubt! Which could lead to more problems than a choppy connection in COD. Especially if you have computers hooked up to the same router.

I don't know if all routers are like this, but I can only open DMZ on ONE networked device at a time (either by MAC Address or IP). Of course that device is my PS3, so my PC is still secure.

You're right though that opening a bunch of ports can cause security issues - gotta make sure you know which ones you're opening.

Agree, very irritating.

Not bad for a decent/pretty good-type game. The only COD game that really knocked my socks off was Modern Warfare.

It has joined the Maddens of the world as a cultural icon, reaping blockbuster sales despite little title-to-title improvement.

I think the Call of Duty series is the new "Madden" of the video-game world.

It's actually referred to as such by a lot of people now.

I didn't mind Martyrdom.

Second Chance is overpowered, I agree...a pistol should not take you out in 3 bullets when I have to fire 7 rounds of my assault rifile to get a kill. On the flip side, I like having to rely on teammates to revive you compared to waiting a certain time limit without dying. There should be a challenge with that to get the pro version...you have to revive 25 teammates or something.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

I played a game of Demolition and two guys were doing nothing but camping for kills. One of them had 96 kills while the other had 101 kills.

I had to deal with at least 4 chopper gunners.

Yeh, I hate the TDM guys that play objective games. If you have 50+ kills without a single plant/defuse, GO AWAY! My favorite map in Demolition is Radiation...it's amazingly awesome to see people get smashed with the gate. I just wish I got the kill to get with it.

The thing that I hate about last stand is that you can knife as you go down... I've died sooooooo many times from that happening it isn't even funny.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

I don't find Last Stand horrible.

I mean, it's annoying, yeah. But this overpowered perk? Not really. It definitely helps me get my Sleight of Hand pro faster.

I could also see it being useful if you run with a party.. being able to revive / be revived probably helps out a lot in TDM. Kind of a "team" perk in that sense.

The knifing though in Last Stand needs to go. Agree with that. I hate when I kill someone and then they "drop" into Last Stand but before that, managed to "knife" me.

here's the solution I think they should use.

1) bullets stop knife animation

2) knifing is not possible while falling down

3) knife animation from last stand is 1.5-2x longer to execute.


Other than that I'm not seeing much more I'd like changed from a pure gameplay perspective, other than projectile bullets rather than hitscan.

I would have liked another bolt-action sniper, and a couple more handguns like a beretta (sp?) ...since there are only the cross bow and ballistic knife, maybe they could have tossed in a bow&arrow non-exploding....but those are all minor things. maybe another lmg too....

With new maps I wish they would patch the knife thing and use the solution above (I know it won't happen though).

That is a good solution.

Or maybe you would have to press a button to get your knife out and then another button to slash. This would prevent "panic knifing" and make knifing more of a secondary.
