Official Black Ops Discussion Thread

350 mb updated this morning, more fiddling, i wonder what they will screw up this time, removed more detail to run smoother?

edit:
Call of Duty: Black Ops
Added support for mods in preparation for the upcoming tools release.
Addressed various MP & Zombie exploits.
Improved memory utilization in MP.
Improved DLC filter in server browser – you can now hide any servers running content you do not own.
Corrected issue which sometimes required repurchase of emblems or clan tags on weapons.
Address some cases in which player could not receive Zombie invites.
Replaced RPG with Grim Reaper in Gun Game Wager Match.
Fine-tuned napalm and bombing-run damage indoors.
Prevented rare invulnerability issue.
Demolition bombs can no longer explode and be defused at the same time.
Spy plane now activates in One in the Chamber in all cases.
The “Sprint Kills” challenge for Steady Aim perk now rewards the player with the correct number of kills.
Addressed a rare issue where a hacked camera spike would not function properly if the hacker also had a camera spike that was destroyed.
Recording a clip with the speed mode for 2 cameras set to .1 will no longer increase in speed when switching perspectives back and forth.
Improvements to Zipline functionality when viewed in Theater mode.
Settings from custom games are all cleared and no longer carry over from one custom match to another.
Nova gas will now affect players that are standing over their tactical insertion.
Hardcore players who kill another teammate in Second Chance now lose the proper amount of points.
Calling in a Chopper Gunner immediately after getting shot down in a Gunship will no longer end the Chopper Gunner run prematurely.
 
Call of Duty: Black Ops
Added support for mods in preparation for the upcoming tools release. This sounds awesome, what are the implications of this?
Improved DLC filter in server browser – you can now hide any servers running content you do not own. I had this on the weekend I think, filter out DLC???
Corrected issue which sometimes required repurchase of emblems or clan tags on weapons. Golden gun camo used to do this
Fine-tuned napalm and bombing-run damage indoors. Wondered about that.. always getting killed indoors by napalm
Prevented rare invulnerability issue. On ROS there was a guy that this happened to last night
Demolition bombs can no longer explode and be defused at the same time. haha never seen that
Hardcore players who kill another teammate in Second Chance now lose the proper amount of points. I thought they would have gained points??? :p
 
with the mod tools, can you add things to the game, eg on summit map. the big '1' on the hanger wall, could you add underneath 'for the money', and under the 2 on the cable car, put 'for the show' just an example, or Change uniform colour, turn day to night, etc what can you MODify?

I think it means create all new maps as well.
 
wow that would be insane if you could create your own maps, well worth looking into.
Id love to design graphics for this, one could go take photos of all the shop fronts of a nearby local area, The 'Moses Mabhida' Mayhem Map with sky lift and sniper vantage point, wickid

Ja dude, Vega is nogals goed. :) Maar ja, ons sal praat. Die servers was maar stil die naweek, omdat die patch alles op gefolk het. :(

Yes, it will be released on thursday.
 
Just a quick thanks to VOID for last nights session. It showed that we are improving and our cohesion is getting better. It was TOIGHT like a TOIGER, but they eventually ran out winners! Well done, and thanks again.

Thanks also to the RoS guys, you played well and I think we have something to work with! If we can follow up on that performance we might not be as bad as we initally thought! :)

We had them on the ropes a few times hey.. I really enjoyed that, was some of the most fun I've had in ages.
 
That second match came down to the wire bud! 13 - 12???? Close, but unfortunately no cigar! I reckon if it was not for the timeouts we might have been closer in the third match, because for a while there we played with only 4 - with Radeon being up and down it was basically 3...
