Call of Duty: Black Ops

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

The reason every head shot isn't a one hit kill in any call of duty game, is that all the gun fights would be over instantly.

I know a lot of the people that have to complain about every single thing don't like the fact that hardline pro can re-roll anything that comes from an airdrop, but that fact is there WAS two viable options in the first perk slot, hardline and ghost.

The day this patch hits, get ready to never use the spy plane again, because its going to be 95% ghost. Its already about 60% - 70%, but get ready for 95%. I know I think ghost is cheap as hell, and the most overpowered perk in the game, but when this patch hits they've left no alternative.

People are still going to use lightweight pro and marathon together. Its a very effective CQC combination, especially with the way the knifing is and will always be and a couple of those shotguns can get ridiculous.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Not to sound like a broken record...i really wish that they would concentrate on the stability of the game online before anything else!!! I might actually care about gameplay fixes if I could play more than 2 freaking games in a row without getting some type of connection error!!!

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Right now, if you run hardline pro, you can have a second chance on any airdrop. Lets say you run the sam turret and care package as your kill streaks, you drop them both, and get a sam turret and ammo. You can then use hardline pro to "re-roll" both air drops and have another chance to get different kill streaks. Its a strong perk, but not overpowered in any way. Once this patch hits, you will only be able to re-roll the care package killstreak, not any other airdrops.

When they do this they're going to kill hardline pro because let me tell you from first hand experience, you have a pretty good chance to get something worse when you re-roll your airdrop, and since you're only going to have one chance now, its basically worthless.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Disappointed in the Hardline Pro thing, we run with 2 people on it and the other 4 on Ghost. We all get the packages as our killstreaks and swap them out for good stuff. I will not be using it from here on out.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Never ran the Sam Turret-Care Package-Sentry Gun combo so the patch won't change my thoughts on Hardline Pro but I can see why it needs to be patched. Seeing all these little things being patched makes me hope that they are working on the connection patch while they are release the patches for these small things first. It would be nice if they put the connection patch out before the 25th cause after that the servers will be crushed like never before.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

Getting the G11 and the addition of CTF and HQ on hardcore has seriously helped out my enjoyment of this game. Was getting seriously tired of the wait and camp approach in TDM on hardcore and don't really care for core so the addition of some objective games keeps things fresh and exciting, plus the G11 is a beast.

One thing I hated about MW2 is that UAV was basically useless because A, everyone was disguised, B, no one used it. Spy Plane is a MUST for me in killstreaks and really helps. I seriously hope we don't see everyone go Ghost. I usually use Hardline, although it's more just to get that plane on the 2nd kill, which helps an average at best player like me.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

So last night was the first night I was legitimately angry at the game. Nothing to do with how people play, but dropped connections. First off, i'm not the greatest COD player in the world, so very rarely do I top 20 kills, or have one of those 24/5 games, or anything like that. My K/D is an even 1.0, and most games are around like 15/13 or 12/12, with some 7/10 or worse thrown in.

First game on Array (all team deathmatch BTW), I had an awesome game going, something like 15/2, and of course, connection dropped. The second game nearly sent the controller flying, as I got a care package on Nuketown, which wound up being a gunship, which i've never had before. I hopped in, and started absolutely mowing people down, to the tune of about 15 deaths via gunship before I got shot down. With about a minute left in the game, with me at about 27/3, guess what? Connection dropped.

I'll try back up today, but if this keeps up, I won't have any problem trading this in. The game is a blast, depsite how bad I am, but nothing irks me more than getting booted.

I swear, EVERY TIME I get a connection interrupted, it's ALWAYS when I'm doing well. Never when I'm stinking it up, never even average, ALWAYS when I'm on a roll. I feel your pain.

I'm not having any troubles that you guys seem to be having.

[Fresh Tendrils]

I've only dropped connection about ten times total and lag is rarely an issue with my deaths. Personally I get more frustrated with somebody stabbing me after I shoot them 2 or 3 times.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops

I think I'm about to shelf this game for a while and play Bad Company 2.

The hit detection, lag, and horrible server issues are ruining this game for me. I want to enjoy it, but those things are making it unbearable. It's impossible to get a consistent connection and the connection issues turn into horrible hit detection issues. I'll probably keep it and play it again some time later.. but I just can't enjoy this game.
