Call of Duty: Black Ops

Are Kill/Death ratios "advertised" ... i.e - can you easily see a Friend's KDR?
Reason I ask is because if it's very apparent, then people tend to be too careful in objective based games.
 
Finally got my copy this morning..8am:eek:...anyhow had a quick play of it before i had to head into the office...seems pretty good graphically...decided this time to start on the hardest level and its pretty tough going.

Looking forward to getting home later and giving it a proper go.
 
I hope they've made Veteran suitably hard, but in the right way. WAW was just cheap in it's difficulty, with the likes of shooting through walls and random constant grenade spam.

It's easy to see what the current KDR is in game as it's on the scoreboard but overall, it's tucked away on the leaderboards.
 
My mates were all furious they didn't get their copies yesterday :p Spent all day moping about deciding how to get theirs. In the end they all went to the local supermarket to pick one up at midnight, they grabbed me a copy too bless 'em!

Safe to say they are calling in sick at work because they pulled all-nighters lol.

'Fess up then, who went/has gone through the exact same process? :D

No way, I'm looking forward to playing tonight but would you really risk your job for a computer game. That's ridiculous!

My Tesco Entertainment order hasn't come which is a poor show so I'm going to try and pick one up from central London at lunch. Yeah right, I stand no chance :)
 
Seems like Tesco have let a lot of people down, shame my order is with them as well, looks like I won't be having a bash tonight!

No I definitely would not risk my job! Imagine the amount of people who are pulling the same stunt at work today, chances are your boss has thought about doing the same thing and knows what trick your pulling :D I'm my own boss so have written today off, early christmas treat :p

As for picking up a copy, you should have no problems surely? Developers/Publishers nowadays know what the demands are like and it's rare for there to be a shortage of stock and certainly no excuse for something that is a sure-fire seller like COD!

Me being one of them as well, it was a right pain sorting everything out so I could be home for the delivery and now the postman has been and gone. I'm just going to buy another copy today and send their copy back for a refund under the Distance Selling Regulations.
 
I went to Game and got this this morning, i preordered but plenty of people were getting theirs without a preorder. Tesco also had loads of copies left, should be no problem getting it in my opinion.
 
Sit Rep Pro made enemy foot steps louder, Ninja Pro made your footsteps silent.

I know what you mean about the sounds through a headset though, really struggled to pick out the extra details like on MW2, weather that was because I wasn't paying much attention to it as I was too busy thinking about the maps I dont know.

No others have said they are having the same problem. I think setting it to surround sound tightens and boasts the sound stage a little but I think ninja pro makes everyones feet louder so I'm guessing that will just take it back to normal level.
