Call of Duty: Black Ops

Someone mentioned setting the audio sound to "TV" seems to boost everything. Gonna try it now

Mine is set to TV sound, I couldn't find an option that best suited my stereo headphones so left it as it was set by default.

Zensuji · 11 Nov 2010 at 12:59

mmm its just different EQs I think. Headset seems to boost the bass and lower the treble.

I've got mine set to theatre and quiet, it's ridiculously loud!

Especially the music intro at the start of rounds.

Zensuji · 11 Nov 2010 at 13:02

I switched to theatre now. The EQ seems more balanced.

I had a go on that yesterday. It is so ridiculously addictive. Also when at the computer terminal type Zork and be pleasantly surprised.

Respawning is crap on MP. Its far too close to people, last night I hung around an area and picked off 5 enemys as they spawned right next to me.

The SR71 is awesome though

Other than unlocking it - are there any other achievements on the mini-game

I moved a recent game to file share but only had 5minutes of the video so didn't have the end of the game? I thought the videos must be only 5mins long but then I've seen 20min vids etc. Any idea why mine only saved this much?

Host switch?

If the host switched it would have only saved that portion of the game, there will be another segment for the rest of the match.

One game I played the other night had 1 section of around 5 minutes, then two other sections of about 29 seconds where the host switched.

There's a couple.

Easy Rhino - In Dead Ops Arcade, use a Speed Boost to blast through 20 or more enemies at one time.

Eaten by a Grue - Play Zork on the terminal.

I really hate dropped resolution, i noticed it a lot on MW2. PS3 version must be pretty grim.

Don't you just hate it when your on a mad kill streak and it says "Migrating hosts" then drops you out to the main menu.

I wouldnt know i neither get mad or sane kill steaks!

Last Kronin · 11 Nov 2010 at 15:16

Not really, but then i never have a mad killstreak, best so far was 10 kills..

Anyone else finding some of the contracts hard to do, so far have failed 1 contract and will fail another as soon as i log in, was the M16 75 kills in 40 minutes, currently at 67 with 8s left

Agree'd. Hopefully it will get patched out.

Spray and pray!

I'm about 4 missions from finishing this on Veteran.. It's pretty hard but nowhere near as bad as WOW or COD 3!

I'm also kinda loving the lack of like 9 grenade being thron at u all the time by enemy AI!

The game itself is very good.. The story is cool and the visuals are stunning.. The music is epic!

I'm not really able to play MP.. Due to only having a 3 MiFi device.. What's this like local? Are the bots intelligent?

Gun game is rage, 6 setbacks I had one game.
