Official Black Ops Discussion Thread

Hehehe, will do my best :) 50000 cod points is not easy though. The problem I have found is occasionally I will play 9-10rounds on one server and will level up nicely, sometimes 10-15 levels in the earlier levels and then the server crashes and I have to start all over again. My suggestion is leave the server every so often, maybe every second game and then rejoin immediately if you don't want to miss out. Just make sure that you leave... That way your stats update. I have lost at least 1 prestige by staying on a server untill it crashes...

You also get to keep your cod points then :)

What?!? so you lose all your levels gained on a server in that session if it crashes?
 
I just got this update. Also, the steam box that pops up when starting the game has an Mweb/gamezone banner on it.

Updates to Call of Duty: Black Ops - Multiplayer have been released. The updates will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:

Call of Duty: Black Ops - Multiplayer
Backward compatibility for films created before Patch 1.05
Issues with weapon purchases after prestiging in some cases
Leaving a server and joining a different server, could briefly show the Map of the previous server
Duplicate player name on a server now becomes playername+slotnumber instead of ‘Unknown Soldier’
During a 'Demolition' match, the 'Auto-balancing teams' options may cause a 'Defender' player to respawn with a 'Bomb' icon in his inventory
Minor Shader Warming speed increase
One In The Chamber no longer counts democlient as a live player
16x AA menu option for compatible graphics cards
Additional Stability improvements
 
I just installed that Duty Calls, and its not a game its one round that you see in the movie and thats it no other rounds and an advert for bulletstorm, i know it was a spoof game, 8gbs for one round or is that part of the pisstake?
 
Eish, the patch made a few improvements, i tried to play a game now and it is just one big nade noobtoob fest with almost everyone using retards chance Hardcore is DEAD, i hardly ever die from a bullet anymore just explosions, the game seems limited, tiny maps and they do this so you get bored and want to buy more maps, only one of the maps is semi large,with most of the maps being small the spawning is fkd
When theres a heli on such small maps they just fire into the spawn area, rendering the game absolutely useless, its actually quite pathetic that call of duty MP has come to hoardes of noobs exploding round the map like a teen having their first ****, where did the game, battle, skill, teamwork, fun go?
 
Stupid update running at 10kbs on 4mb line ... FAIL

Ok, played a quick game or two .... super smooth, no lag.... actually decent in my opinion....

I actually find the maps to be larger or at least the same size as MW2. That said, I do not really like any of them much. I can't put my finger on it, but I just don't enjoy the maps. WMD is probably my favourite if I have to choose, but not for S&D since I get owned in snow for some reason ;p. Agreed, the spawing is still crap and "retards chance", don't even go there!! The Huey also has to go - way too powerful and too many easy kills. Thank the Lord there's no more gaynuke! With the amount of Huey's roaming around in almost every game, an average match would probably last 2 minutes before the first microwaves hit. Aah venting is good..

Have anyone tried some of the overseas servers? For you dedicated S&D clans, there's easy kills there with heaps of XP. I've been playing here and there S&D on British servers with a ping of about 150 - 180 and I must say, we may be third world, but South African's skills do not have to shy away one bit from those Euros. There are exceptions of course, but in general these guys can't search and destroy anything. Maybe I'm lucky to choose noob servers everytime, but I highly doubt that...

Lucky you, my maps takes longer to load now. I see no shader warming speed increase. Stoopid update.
 
yeah they added a stupid long pause before the game starts it sits on waiting for other players with the progress cog stuck , with clangy clickety noises in the background and then starts but the game has already started, people have died and spawned and i start with them, gameplay improved with patch but hell these okes can eff around with the game

I tried turning of that shader warming and yes, it does load a lot quicker, but then my game is more laggy. :( When will the beta testing be over? :confused:
