Call of Duty: Black Ops

hmm I don't know if I should Prestige or not, I mean is it really worth it

I like it. It forces me to use different load outs and play different. The feeling of progression is also nice. And I like going without my favourite guns and earning them again. Preference though.
 
I just wish Trearch would just sort out this NAT setting issue, mine is strict, heard about a MW2 trick to get open, but it did not work for me. MW2 says open too. Cannot party up with anybody on my friends list bar one and he barely plays the game ffs.
The fact that this trick works for most people proves that the issue in not on my end.
What a cluster**** this game is on PS3.
 
Wish they would sort out the freezing PS3 issue tbh. Everytime I get an award mid game that is like 3000xp I know that game is gonna freeze and I am going to lose those points :(

Also, quick question about the perk challenges. Do you have to have a perk equipped to complete parts of it's challenge, or just have the perk bought? I am sure one of my perk challenges completed a bit, whilst I did not have it equipped, but I could be imagining it.

Im sure u need it equipped, for instance im only needing to destroy a sentry gun to get ghost pro, ive destroyed a few with other load outs but when i play with the ghost load out no one uses them :(
 
You have to have the perk equipped.
And I hope they sort out the leaderboards as well. Maybe they're just going to do what rockstar did with RDR and just do a mass banning all at once? Or maybe activision won't let them ban people as it'll mean them losing money through loss of DLC sales:rolleyes:
 
you keep the emblem stuff so you can spend it on that... I guess otherwise prestiging would be a lot quicker with the better equipment at level 1... I spent nearly 60k on all the stuff to make emblems before prestiging 1st time :/

I just got Ghost Pro after having the Ghost perk on all my classes for a while incase I eventually came across a sentry gun and managed to get to it before anyone else, so common in MW2 but rare as rocking horse **** in this game.
 
Everytime I check this thread people are only ever talking about the multiplayer, I know it's probable that the majority have just blasted through the single player whereas I'm preferring to take my time but is no one playing through the campaign?

I'm almost at the end and personally I think this could be the best single player COD so far, it's been a while since I've played the original MW's SP and I remember that being pretty epic but every level so far has been brilliant on Black Ops. After not enjoying the SP of WAW whatsoever and finding the SP of MW2 far too short with not even veteran making it a challenge I've been left very pleasantly surprised by this.

Could possibly be the best SP game I've played this year.

Started playing the single player campaign yesterday, I am playing it in 3D on my 52" display and enjoying it so far.

I don't play the multiplayer game in 3D as it does make it harder to get kills than playing in 2D.
 
I took my time going through single player. Normal difficulty first, then moping up achievements before I did my Veteran run. I enjoyed the campaign but not sure if I preferred it to MW2. Took 2 plays to understand the story properly!

Now I have 2 zombie mode cheevos left to do. Otherwise the online is all thats keeping me playing the game really.
 
Is it just me who think the PS3 version is broken since the update? I would say 60% of all my games either end 'connection interrupted' or that lobby closed error.
 
Oh well so much for Treyarch stating that boosters would not take over the leaderboards :(

Top spots are dominated by them just watch any vid on the top of the Demolition leaderboard that has insane amounts of Plants/Defuses, so sad that they have done nothing about it after all the promises.

Also all the stats that you see at the bottom of the screen in the lobby are way off due to it, some people have 4000 plants all boosted.

Too be fair I think they are more interested in getting the bugs ironed out before worrying about the leaderboards. Which I hope they are concentrating on.

Leaderboards will never be an accurate representation of the most skillful players so why worry about it.

Anyone else have mic issues? When I play with my mates there is always someone that can't hear someone else. It's very frustrating but not game destroying.
 
Things i've learnt about this game:

- People don't try and go for objectives
- Play Demolition if you want to win games, plant, defend, win. Easy.
- Dolphin diving is awesome
- Knife sucks without Commando
