Just for the record, I'm switching back to MW2 until Treyarch decides they're going to patch Black Ops. Pardon the language, but the multi-player is f***ing TERRIBLE. Honestly, it's just horrendous.

There's SO much more camping because killstreak rewards don't add to your actual killstreak so people just sit in a corner all game. It almost forces YOU to camp because every time you move there's someone sitting in a corner or staring out of a window.

I mean, Treyarch can't patch the camping obviously, but what they CAN do is make it so the guns don't SUCK PENIS. Every single gun has AWFUL recoil. It's damn near unmanageable unless you're face-to-face with your enemy. Every gun loses its power from a distance and they're ungodly inaccurate so unless your enemy is an absolutely IDIOT, you're not going to kill someone from a distance. It almost FORCES you to run up on someone which just, in turn, ends up getting you killed because, like I said, EVERYONE camps in a corner. It just really isn't fun by any means.

Another things I HATE is the Perk challenges. For example, two of my favorite perks are Marathon and Ninja because they really suit my stealthy, rushing approach to the game. Now, instead of having GENERAL challenges like they did in MW2, the challenges FORCE you to play other game types in order to get the pro version of the Perk. For example, one of the challenges for Marathon requires you to be a flag runner or something of the sort in Capture the Flag. I personally think that's stupid because it kind of takes a player out of their comfort zone. I'm a Team Deathmatch/Free-for-All kind of guy who absolutely HATES Capture the Flag. So now I'm basically stuck with a shitty, watered-down version of the Marathon perk. The Ninja perk requires you to complete an array of things in Search and Destroy in order to unlock the pro version.

On a good note, however, the customization is AWESOME. I love being able to buy camos as I wish and customize the reticle of my precision sight. Red just so happens to be my favorite color and I love the fact that I can make my entire gun, including the color of my precision sight lens, red. I also really like that your main perk affects the appearance of your character. It really helps you with your on-the-go strategy. Like the Flak Jacket perk makes the character look almost like a Juggernaut from MW2. That helps me out because I know I have to take charge at those players instead of trying to pick him off with a grenade.

So, basically... I'm switching back to MW2 until further notice because the Black Ops multi-player is just horrendous at this point...

Sounds like you just suck at the game, just sell the damn game if you don't like it.

That's not really the case. I'm decent at the game. I never go negative. A bad round for me would only be a few kills positive. And it's not that I don't like the game, it's just a matter of waiting until Treyarch patches some of the kinks. It happened with MW2 as well. They're going to get complaints, they'll come out with an update and the game will be fun again. Other than the multi-player, Black Ops is the best CoD to date. It has the best campaign, the zombies is awesome because it's not boringly easy like WaW's was and I absolutely love messing around with the combat training. The multi-player just pisses me off. Lol.

[b]Learn some patience then. It just came out, they'll patch what they need to soon.[/b] As for the recoil, it's a gun, no gun has 0% Recoil, Recoil is needed.

Bolded: Thus the reason I said I'm going back to MW2 until then...

I understand that all guns have recoil and it's unavoidable in any situation, but it's a bit overdone in Black Ops. It's almost impossible to hit anything from a distance (not just talking about all-the-way-across-the-map-distances either) without burst-firing the gun. I'm totally fine with that. It's been like that in EVERY first-person shooter game I've ever played (except for the dreaded ACR of course LOL), but in Black Ops it takes an upward of 3 - 4 and sometimes even 5 bursts to kill someone from, what I'm estimating would be, 100 - 200 feet away. It just seems a little far-fetched for me to believe that I need to be less than 100 feet away from someone to kill them in less than 2 or 3 bursts from an assault rifle...

Maybe it's just me and my tendencies to b**** too much, but I'm just going to patiently wait for Treyarch to release their patch (which is already in the works) before picking Black Ops back up.

Dude, they're not gonna patch major things like the killstreak addition. The recoil, maybe, but I doubt. But to fix vamping, you know what would be epic? If a player stays in the same immediate area for more than say, 30 seconds, a "camp fire" starts behind them xD

So MW2 wouldn't connect me to a game for some reason so I decided to give Black Ops a go again... First round of TDM, 45 - 4. I would just like to say that the PM63 Rapid Fire with Scavenger, Steady Aim and Marathon is COMPLETELY unfair for the opposing team. Lmfao.
