    Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

    Those of us on the Wii yesterday got a patch. 2nd patch since release, and here's what it supposedly fixed:

    01/25/11
    • Explosives are not visible through walls when using Hacker perk.
    • Ninja perk is ineffective at times.
    • 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 be ensured one-shot kill headshots.
    • 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.
    • Previous Map Spamming – players are currently able to vote for the previously played map an unlimited number of times
    • Incorrect Prestige Emblems appearing at certain levels
    • Sending out text messages to massive groups can cause the game to freeze
    • Demolition – getting a loss registered despite earning a win
    • Some players experiencing crashes when viewing leaderboards with a high number of Allies
    • Stuck in spawn spot in Cracked
    • Voice Chat breaks up at times
    • More reported cases of "unbound" controls
    • Second Chance "invincible glitch"
    • Several fixes that should improve performance/lag for host and client
    • Shorter spawn-in (black screen) times in MP matches
    • Zombie Legs - create-a-crawler

    There was also a stretch of time yesterday (a few hours) where Hardcore matches could be played 6 vs 6 (normally it's 5 vs 5). Must've been a server load test as there was a hotfix a few hours later that reverted it to 5 on 5.

    Also changed the menu screen a bit as now there's a blank space under Combat Training that wasn't there before...may be for the CoD store, or the place to get new maps when they come out.

    At least the Wii owners got something as well....

      lol at the scenario after you beat the game. If only you could use those skins in multiplayer.

        Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

        Now I am reminded of just why I left this game...man this is just so frustrating. The matchmaking is horrible...grenade spam...RCXD galore...this game could be so good...if the matchmaking is good(balanced teams + no lag), little RCXD spam and such it's tons of fun, maybe better than CoD 4. And to top all of this off while lagging I called in my dogs...never came.

          cod 4 was the worst for nade spam not to mention the radius of the blast. if you flash bang the rcxd it cant move then just shoot it.

          Started playing again after a little break. Tried out barebones for a while and it was a fun change. I still prefer hardcore as even if the room is a bit laggy you still get a kill when you start shooting someone 1st.

          Cant wait for the new maps

                  Oh its still the cheapest gun in the game even with the changes. It is still basically an assault rifle with the movement bonuses of a SMG.

                    Yup I agree. Of the 9000 deaths I have in this game it seems like at least 75% of the deaths have come from the AK74u and Ghost. It's also good to see that you get a kill for putting a guy into Second Chance now, so I guess the perk's a bit better, but I still hate it.

                    Still haven't seen an RC car yet, I wonder how much they nerf'd that?

                      What was the deal with the RC cars? Were they just way overpowered?

                        Yeah, the range was ridiculous on the RC cars.

                          Hey Beantown I think I have you on my friend's list. How often do you play? Just checking because I'm trying to start getting back into Black Ops and if you don't mind a lightweight at COD, wouldn't mind trying to run a few games with you at some point.

                            If you don't have me on your list, feel free to add me and we can get some games in. I play often, usually only for three or four games at a time but that's because I don't know anyone I'm playing with.

                            Feel free to add me and let me know when you're heading on and I'll follow-suit.
