Official Black Ops Discussion Thread

My game is running fine now except for this friggen mouse issue. My mouse buttons just stop responding intermittently for a second. I can still look around but I can't fire for a second. This is driving me up the wall!! It sucks getting into a 1 on 1 confrontation and just standing there not being able to shoot back. Or when you have like a small window to shoot someone before he runs around the corner and your gun failing. It's definetly not my mouse, as I've done a paintkit test and I see a black dot for everytime I click, it just happens in BO.

I had this problem in Zombie mode this weekend. I right click and my rifle refuse to aim down sights.....After about 20 clicks it seem to have fixed it self though...

My mouse fires no problem, but I have a programmable button mapped to put my claymore down, that I have to click 3 sometimes 4 times to get working....

I already broke my R900 headsets because I threw it on the desk when I lost my temper. Luckily my mouse has not felt the wrath yet...

ROFL!!!, the same thing happened to me about a month ago..... unfortunately the trajectory of my traveling headset was a bit higher than my desk and ended up hitting my LCD!
I ended up having to replace both................... damn you MOH! :D
 
I have the same problem, Penguin, and it also affects any of my actions besides moving, e.g. reloading, switching weapons, and it also affects keyboard-mapped actions.

Anyway, Here is some stuff from @pcdev (Treyarch pc twitter) I picked what seemed most relevant:

trying to release patch before the weekend. will go into QA tomorrow (i.e. today).

we have some nice optimizations for better FPS going into QA tomorrow.

we are aware of long shader compile times on nvidia 4 series cards causing hitching. working with nvidia on a fix.

TBH I'm not sure yet what is causing killcam choppiness, but we see it too. Will fix.

/connect is coming back. maybe not next patch but I promise it is coming back.

(on editing classes, etc, at match end) we tried this but had a lot of problems due to the way the data is secured. had to bench the feature for future review.

will add 12 player playlists.

(wrt Zombies 'This Lobby no longer active') fix coming for this.

Oh, lol almost forget the most important one:

wrt to losing xp/ranks: we've had some backend issues that may have caused data validation failures in some cases. very sorry about that. we are fixing.

some (most?) binds are illegal .... maybe they wrote it into the code and that's why you're having odd button issues?
 
I only have ordinary keyboard binds, no scripts, mousewheel, etc...

If I had to guess, I would say it is probably linked to fps drops in firefights trimming snapshots due to the decreased packet transmission, but I'm not really sure.
 
How many of you guys still get the "lost connection" error while playing? Cause its baffling me at the moment. Some times My Wife and I can play at the same time no problems, other times she gets disconnected or I get disconnected. Then sometimes playing by myself or when she plays by herself there are still connection errors....

My buttons are all mapped to default, except for melee, which is on mouse 4, which I've done for all other COD's. I don't get fps drops at all, my game is running at a constant 60fps, ping is fine as well. Trying to find a solution on their forums is impossible with the people moaning about lag,ping spikes, fps drops, steam, disconnects etc... I just want my damn mouse to function normally!!
 
I have my scroll mouse right click mapped to reload, left click to call kill streak.. best thing I ever did (my hands are so dumb on the keyboard) Then I have the two thumb buttons, one for my claymore and the other to melee, and scroll down click to throw grenade.
 
Good news Neo... Let's hold thumbs that we can play some decent matches by the weekend... Q needs to get together so we can practise a little...
 
the worst is emptying a whole clip on a dude then he shoots you with 1 bullet :( or getting knifed, i was under the impression the commando perk was dropped ;) almost seems like guys are running around with long swords :)
BTW have you guys played around with the theater mode yet? its funny seeing yourself play out of a third person perspective, its actually a pretty cool feature.
 
? Have not seen it...

Will check tonight. My steam doesn't start up automatically anymore - it starts when I start the game so I don't really check my friend list so much anymore...
