Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

The first map pack really depends on your taste in maps. Some people like it some people don't and everyone seems to have different favorites and least favorite maps. Its basically got two long ranged maps and two maps more friendly to Run'N Gun. Personally I like 3 of the 4 maps pretty well and if you like Run'N Gun more than I do you might like Stadium.

The second map pack seems more universally praised and I personally enjoyed all 4 of the maps.

So would say map pack one is probably worth the money while map pack two definitely is.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

This may only help a little (or not at all), but I was dropping out of a lot of games before I set my XBox360 to have a static IP address (as opposed to a dynamic IP address). It helped a little, but I still have times where I drop or get wailed on because the connections sucks...part of it (maybe a big part) is that the netcode for CoD kinda sucks, but I won't get back into that discussion. Make sure you set the address to something high (much greater than the number of devices you could ever conceive of using your router simultaneously) to avoid any potential IP address conflicts. If you are on Xbox360, here's a nice tutorial:

Hopefully it helps. Happy shooting.

Thank you for this information. I really appreciate it. I will definitely look into it. Again Thank you

For me personally I enjoy both map packs. I feel they did a nice job with the layouts of the new maps.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

I rediscovered my ultimate setup - the ak47 silenced with sleight of hand/ghost/hacker - all pro'd out.

Wow..it is so good at about everything..the iron sites shoot so well from long distance that I do not miss the scope..something about not needing the scope also makes it more of a manly setup..lol.

anyway, i had a much kigher k/d than normal with this setup..still trying to figure out if I need steady aim..I feel like Sleight of hand is more valuable.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Steady Aim seems pretty worthless to me. If you're close enough to hip fire you shouldn't really need Steady Aim. If they're any further away faster ADS from Sleight of Hand should do the trick just as well.

That is my logic as well. Sometimes I cue up steady aim just because i want to pro it out, but sleight of hand is my favorite perk. The ghost/sleight/hacker combo is an absolute pleasure.

thing I love about the AK is when you silence it, you can still put people down in a hurry. I could never do that with the famas or commando when they are silenced. If I don't use a silencer, I think the Famas is lethal due to rate of fire. The AK just shoots a heavy bullet and once you get used to the kick, you can make long distance shots while running if needed.

Maybe steady aim would be a benefit if you disable aim assist.

I have tried it before where I disabled aim assist , and its a big difference on how you aim your weapon with aim assist off.

Its worth a try to see how accurate you really are, but Its much tougher than you think.

The one plus is when multiple targets hit your sights your aiming doesn't try to lock on any one. Your guns points where you want it.

Give it a shot its challenging.
