Cod Black Ops

[darkwolf777]

I'm on the fence on Black Ops.

I can't decide if any gun is really better than any other gun, or i'm having a harder time seeing differences between some of them, so can't really find a weapon that i have a good feel with yet.

If you like Killstreaks, you're better off going 4-5-6 with Hardline Pro (making it a 3-4-5 Killstreak, being SAM Turret, Care Package, Sentry Gun) and just changing the contents of packages. The chances you get something better isn't that bad, and you'd probably have better chances with that than earning a 9 or 11 Killstreak. I haven't found a reason to anything else.

I love the Crossbow

I hate that Shotguns are Primary now. A Sniper Rifle and the SPAS are all I needed in MW2. Of Course, the SPAS was the most amazing shotgun ever, considering its range xD Loved doing jump shotgun final kills. Jumping almost always made shooting that thing better for some reason. I also loved clearing out full rooms with my SPAS.

When i'm shooting people, Its harder to hear that they're even being hit. I know there are hit markers but the noise for it is so dull o.x

I'm glad there's a lot less noobtubing. Flak Jackets, as well as no more One Man Army have deterred most noobtubers.

In Black Ops, there's no option to lower Voice Volume in the game's options. So you're forced to listen to everyone or always disable each person's voice manually. In MW2, I normally kept the volume to 0 since most people had horrible mikes, or was garbled, or was a bunch of random noise. Well upside is that most people who are coherent are pretty funny.

I dunno, I can't think of anything else.

I agree with everything you said except for the shotguns. Every shotgun is good except the Olympia. The Spas has good range (not sniper rifle range like mw2) and it isnt affected by attachments. The HS10s suck by themselves but dominate akimbo. The Stakeout is the most consistent 1-shot kill despite the 4 rounds.

SHOTGUN HAS ONLY BEEN MADE A SECONDARY IN MW2.

That's what made secondaries so overpowered....AA12 with extended mags and scavenger is good enough to be a primary. Same with the Rangers and 1887s even after the nerfing patch.

But the AA12 sucks. SPAS all the way

Yes, I could run around all day with my SPAS and win games. I liked having a nice long range weapon (Sniper Rifle) and good Close/Mid Ranged weapon (SPAS) together.

My only option for Shotgun now is to carry Crossbows (which i like doing anyway), but be limited on ammo (don't really use Scavenger since using Hardline Pro gets me the sexy kill streaks with ease)

[Gospel.]

the AA12 only sucks if you dont use scavenger because it uses up your ammo so fast.

I like Black Ops more than mw2 because the guns have recoil, the maps are better for the most part, and there's no more Commando Pro or One Man Army noobtubing. According to me it is the best installment in the call of duty series. I really enjoyed to play this one. Most successful game too.

L96 one shots almost everything - Check
Noob tubes - Check
[/quote]
Haha - No. Unlike MW2, you can't Scavenger to resupply Noob tubes. And you can't One Man Army them either. As for the L96, if you aren't precise enough to land the bullet into your enemy's chest or head, you'll only land a hit marker on them and most likely give away your position.

My opinion on the game is it's my favorite so far. My favorite guns are the FAMAS Red Dot sight/Silencer, Galil Silenced, and AK74u with Grip/Rapid Fire.

dudes the new patch makes the psg-1 RIDICULOUS without attachments 0_o

My dad got the game, and he'll try it when he tries it.

Apparently you can't quickscope in black ops, which REALLY sucks because in my opinion, the funnest this in the COD games is gathering 4 friends in a small map and doing a quickscope match.

After the patch I saw some videos on YouTube of people quick scoping in BO. It's back, but it's not the quick scoping we remember in MW2.

I dont think I want 11 out of 12 people spinning off of 10 story buildings trying to get 'montage' clips thank you very much.

[darkwolf777]

The new patch made me chance my killstreak choices since you can no longer double tap SAM and Sentry Gun packages with Hardline Pro anymore. Disappointing but clearly necessary considering I thought 4-5-6 with hardline to be the best compared to earning higher streaks. Ah well, back to 3-5-9 with Hardline.

First, I wasn't speaking to you. Second, I saw some really good gameplays after the patch on YouTube.

Excellent game, One of the my best favourite game in my top list, Lovely animation and graphic. Amazing enjoyment to playing in PS3, Proper action game for gaming lover. Most famous game at recent time.

I've started to like it more after playing for a bit.

I've started to get the hang of the nerfed explosives. I do think they sort of went overboard on it though. The problem is that a lot of players hate getting killed by explosives so much. Alright, so make a perk for those people that reduces damage from explosions (Flak Jacket). Annoying to people that like explosives, but since they're giving up another perk for it, it's balanced. But instead of stopping there, or implementing another solution, they go nuts:

1. Danger Close is completely removed. From an explosives standpoint this is like having Juggernaut (Flak Jacket) with no Stopping Power (Danger Close) to counter it.

2. All explosives are nerfed into power and radius in general

3. I never liked the thumper anyway (preferred an underbarrel launcher), but they nerf it by making the China Lake have both shots in one clip, screwing you out of getting a quicker reload on shells via sleight of hand.

4. You can no longer use a scope or suppressor with an underbarrel launcher via Bling/Warlord. One of my favorite weapons from MW2 was a Scar-H with a suppressor and the grenade launcher. No longer possible.

5. They stop grenade launchers from working until like 10 seconds or so at the start of rounds. This is obviously because of how annoyed people got in MW2 because some noob tuber got lucky and killed them at the start (Although I imagine a sizable portion of these people have studied the maps and know where to aim to bombard the most popular routes). What's annoying however, is when a group of enemies with Lightweight and Marathon charge the bomb site, you fire your grenade, and it does nothing because "Grenade Launchers are not active for 1 Second". This scenario has happened to me way too often.



I'm not saying "ZOMG RUINED FOREVER TREYARCH, WHEN'S INFINITY WARD MAKING THE NEXT [i]REAL[/i] CALL OF DUTY?!!", just that I think they went a little overboard in the explosives nerfing department. I acclimated to it fairly quickly and have gotten plenty of kills with them. Although every so often my grenade does nothing because I fired 1 second too early, and a facepalm is had.

I only get to play it at my friends house, and I don't really enjoy it, liked MW2 better.

Cod : Black Ops is a first person shooter game. The game is the seventh installment of the Call of Duty, and the first set of the Cold War. It has developed a third set of Treyarch, and is the sequel to the developers of Call of Duty: World at War. Online multiplayer game Black Ops to keep the experience points and unlock the bonus system, which has remained ever since Call of Duty 4.

Pretty sure everyone knows what Black ops is. =/

BO was at least better than MW2 in terms Campaign, but multiplayer leaves a lot to be desired, which is something I expected, considering Treyarch isn't the best when comes to multiplayer. MW2 was okay in terms of campaign, but it couldn't hold a f***ing candle to MW1, and that goes for multiplayer as well. BO was good, all things considered, but it needs to be improved on, and CoD needs to innovate with the next game. In all honesty, CoD 1-4 have all been fantastic, but MW2, WaW, and BO were not that great. Personally, I think CoD is losing it's greatness. Bad Company 2, as far as I'm concerned, blows the last three CoD games away. It's just fantastic.

Treyarch IS improving on it....theyve realeased 2 patches since the games release.....IW didnt even release 1....they just charged everyone 15 bucks for sh*tty map packs. At least treyarch did everything MW2 players wanted at launch (no one man arm noobtubes, Tac-insertions being ommited from FFA to prevent boosting, etc.) The guns still don't have ADS sway, but the have considerably more recoil (unlike the laser beam UMP or ACR.) Granted, people have requested that the snipers be tweaked to CoD4 standards, which Treyarch said they would do overtime (and since theyve done everything we've asked so far, there really is no reason to think that they wont eventually patch the snipers e some more.) The community have also addressed the AK-74u, the Famas, and the AUG should be nerfed do to high fire rates that the weapons posses (a weapon with 900rpm that's a 3-shot kill is a bit much) has ALSO been addressed by Treyarch staff. So it's pretty safe to assume that in a few months time, BO will be the epitome of balance that we've waited for for so long in a CoD game. With a good campaign to boot >;D

[Force_Flex]

AK74u Rapid Fire needs to be patched :/ So, I play MAG until it does. But aside from that, it is a good game.
