Call of Duty thread: always bet on Black. OPS. Unless it sucks

Yep…I kept getting hit with Ryu’s unblockable charged up fireball from SF3 everytime on wake-up grumbles about RC car and stealing the D batteries

  • :bluu:

Thats almost exactly what has been happening to me…I can be friggin HOST and it happens, though I usually dropped to one bar…nothing sucks more than to start a mtach like that and get RAINED on by grenades…just…stuck there…sigh :sad:

  • :bluu:

nice.

I don’t know what time I’ll get home, I’m having an early dinner with mom then picking Amber up from the hospital (visitng the nephew) around 6-7 near annapolis mall. So I guess a little bit before 8 I’ll hop on…zombies? Or MP?

  • :bluu:

Rather play some MP for tonight, need to get used to playing against people (though the flaming dogs are a good counter to that) If you see me playing something else, still send me a friend invite. I know I am getting Need for Speed so I might be doing that, but hit me up anyway

lol :stuck_out_tongue: You mean running around humping the radar all game?

All I can stand is hc tdm or whatever other hc types. I can’t stand killing people, and they respawn in 1 second, then run right for me and shoot me, thinking they’re good at this game.

Core mode is a spastic mess of people just running around with their heads cut off, spamming grenades and spray 'n pray :stuck_out_tongue:

HardCore to me is boring because kill streaks are kinda pointless. Might as well play the bare bones mode where killstreaks aren’t allowed.

Hardcore wouldn’t be so bad if people didn’t camp so hard. I remember in w@w there was so such thing as killstreaks being pointless. Dogs would seek you out and find you. Only thing about dogs in this game is that it’s an 11 streak. How hard are those to obtain anyways?

Bassist: the high kill streaks are not difficult to obtain. Just make sure you have 2 primary weapons, scavenger, or a large clip.

Im done with this game.

:rolleyes: I’m just a little pissed.

I assume mostly people are done because the patches haven’t been released yet. I should have waited until Christmas before I got this game. Is it that bad?

I’m not sure how they’re pointless. If you mean because of Ghost Pro, well, that’s not exclusive to HC mode, and definitely more useful in Core anyhow.

Either way, who says the game needs 50 killstreaks going off every second anyhow? That’s what MW2 was for. I like the more deliberate pacing of Black Ops’ gameplay. Feels more like MW1, where you’re going to die to actual people more often than missiles and planes.

In the end, anything is slow/camping compared to a TDM or Domination match in Core. People run around so much because who cares if you die, you’ll respawn instantly and you can just run behind the guy who just shot you :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I wouldn’t say this game is ‘done’. Its just a couple people who wanted to hate the game from the start express their dislike for the game. No one on my friend’s list is playing mw2, or halo for that matter, everyone is working on their prestiges and every evening I have tons of people to party up with.

Officially retired from COD4. Legit 1.0k/d. I’ve officially killed a few more times in my COD career than I have been killed. 4,WaW, MW2.

Black Ops is next! See you guys around Christmas time.

MW2 had shit you could counter? Where? SP, Commando, Danger Close. OMA/DC and Ninja where invincible. One SMG dominated.
BO has WAY more variety that MW2 ever did. You’re not limited to Stopping Power but whatever, the people hating thins game barley even play it anyways. I barley have ANY issues with lag. I also like how you said that there’s nothing you can do about the RC-XD when there’s a freaking perk that makes you take less explosive damage :rolleyes:

My friends and I will be playing this game for a looooooooooong time. We aren’t going back to MW2 anytime soon. Yeah, the spawns suck but they are working on fixing that, ninja, and a few other things. And let’s be honest, the spawns in 4, and MW2 are awful as well (although, there are times where BO is worse, a lot worse).

I find the game to be more fun than MW2. If you want to play and I got space in my party, hit me up and we can do the damn thing.

HA what game are you playing? Last night I’m pretty onfident I lost more t ogetting blown up by race cars and helicopters - than by ‘guns’. I friggin got shot by a helicopter, hit the respawn button, and fell before the screen even loaded.

the only real diff for killstreaks right now is hardline pro is making people NOT use tthe standard streaks and just flipping packages into B2s/Napalms/mortars/etc. I see the same ‘volume’ of KS, maybe even more, because people are simply ‘picking’ on folks with bad respawns…and since I’m the only person I know to use sentry guns (which seem useless in this game due to the pourous design), I can’t even unlock Ghost Pro.

Don’t get me wrong, the game isn’t bad, its just like MW2 when it first came out…in need of more testing, especially of the stress kind. Performance and spawning are the big turn-offs - not the ‘engine’ itself or the maps. They aren’t perfect, but they work…but the spawning is…f-awesome :rolleyes:

  • :bluu:

Everyone on my friends list is still playing this religously, last night at 3 am CST there were 300k people on, thats not too fucking bad if you ask me.

people are gonna hate, the bottom line is MW2= One gun and one set of perks BO= better balance and numerous guns of worth.

Also this - Call of Duty: Black Ops

::sigh::

  1. Yes I can wear flack…oh yeah…use my tier one perk to protect myself against a singualr strategy…thats like playing Adon simply to get out of Gief’s mix-up game cause he gets up quicker. In MW2, you had the HBS which required a perk to defend against, but it was a teir THREE and it was actually a great perk BEYOND the HBS defense. Flak…so I can survive the race car…thats about all it does…you can WALK away from grenades in this game. I’ve seen the flamethrower twice, with one time being mine. Then I’m leaving myself completely open to all other KS including spy planes. I’m sorry, using my tier 1 to defend against one attack :bluu: oh yeah - great strategy.
  2. You actually could counter everything in MW2 shrug were somethings annoying as hell - of course - it wasn’t a perfect game, but it was just like my analogy of MvC2…tons of broken shit that actually balances it out. Knifers lose to mid and long range, toobers lose to close range and quick guns. HBS lose clean to ninja or MLC (MLN even better). Thermo lost clean to cold blooded. OMA-toobing loses to MLN/MLC and sniping. You had trapping in MvC2 (tubes/thermo/hbs) and you could counter it with better trapping, or rushdown. It created a viable balance and I see MW2 the same. BO is balanced, I’m calling it ‘superior’ from a purist and technical stand point, whats the problem?
  3. If one SMG really did dominate, then you wouldn’t have folks who swear by the SCAR/ACR/M16/FAMAS/Intervention/Baretta/RPD. If you chose to use that one SMG - thats fine, but it wasn’t on a ‘whole nother tier’ or anything. Top tier not God tier.
  4. I actually don’t think anyone is hating on the game. I dislike the current status of the servers - its that simple…even said I’d play it if I didn’t have those issues, but be honest, if YOUR HOST and your playing @ 1 bar…something is inherently wrong. I could see if I join someones game from Cali, but to be host at one bar? Come on…something needs patching/fixing…which they are working on.
  • :bluu:

Edit: Fuck it, why bother…

lol they are hitting the nuketown ‘boosting’.

I actually do like that map though :sad:

I’d like them to do a slightly bigger one though - I always liked the neighborhood campaign map from MW2 when protecting the tank or convoy whatever it was (can’t remember)

  • :bluu:

ugh, what’s their to counter? It’s not broken or anything…just be aware of your surroundings :shrug: never been an issue for me…never heard anyone complain “if they don’t stop using NP…” I only hear those comments with QS/tubing/knifing -‘IMO’ those are the only things ‘twisted’ in MW2…and really QS isn’t ‘great’, and knifers can either be heard or have to get close neough to shank. leaving tubers which I admit do require great distance or MLC/MLN to get by (or great bait skills).

  • :bluu:

Which variety? The one where almost everyone is settled on the ak with grip, the g11, or galli? So you are telling me not everyone is running ghost, hardline pro as primary, warload or slight of hand, and hacker pro as the third perk? WTF are you talking about the rc-xd and wearing the flak jacket. So now the only time you survive is if the other player some how is a fucktard at driving that thing and not blowing you up? Get real. Even acheiving the kill streaks in this game are no fun. Horray here comes my not so fun copter… bzzzzzzzz bzzzzzzzzzzzz. The game was noobed down to a complete laugh.

Hey guys want to aim down the site, go ahead, unless you have a scope.
You see that sniper that just got 2 kills, worry not because out awesome spawning code will let you spawn behind him somehow and get him.
We cant have people abusing explosions, so lets let them only get back grenades which do jack shit damage, but not anything else because, hey who needs 2 claymores.
Did you seriously bring up commando and ignore the awesome knifing system of BO :shake::shake::shake::shake:
You also knock on Ninja from MW2, but “GHOST Pro Ability: Undetectable by aircraft, infrared and sentries. Enemies won’t see your name or a red crosshair when targeting you.” So you took a ninja perk which was legit and now we cant kill you even with our KS?

But of course by your logic, i was dead set on hating the game right, even though i was the one calling out the hating beta testers.

EDIT: i noticed you said fuck it why bother in your next post. Of course a noob like you would be at home in this game.

Says the guy that complained about customizable sights being n00b-friendly. PLEASE
