I saw a load of people last night too.

NickM · 12 Jan 2011 at 19:23

Anyone else getting a lot of disconnects tonight?

andi · 12 Jan 2011 at 20:55

Seems to be knackered tonight.

Been fine here, I'm at rank 48 now, don't think I will bother to prestige. Starting to get annoyed playing now, so many useless frag whores in Domination that just ignore the flags! cant deal with them on my team, winds me up! *WHINE*

that would explain why nobody was on tonight then.

Me and Konvict had some great games last night. Nobody in sight tonight however.

I am starting to agree as i have been lucky with Randoms bar the last couple of nights. Even having one friend on the same side makes a huge difference in DOM. I can imagine a full friends team makes even more of a difference!

Note: I only have 3 friends

i was playing domination last night with two friends, we were all on the same team. we absolutely hammered the other team. summit is my favorite for domination

i was defending flag C and B mostly (kept dying trying to reach A). racked up 45 klls too, and 20 deaths

whats everyone's favourite main weapon?

Ahhhh, this game is ****! Well, not the game itself (that's great) but the connection issues, host migration problems and the time it takes to actually join an S&D game. It's an utterly terrible service, and one that I doubt will ever be fixed.

Think I read earlier that the guys at Treyarch blame the problems on our connections, and it being nothing their end. Well, seeing as every other online games work absolutely fine, then what the hell is wrong with this? The funny thing is though, MW2 shows my NAT as closed and works absolutely perfect, yet Black Ops shows it as open and runs like crap.

ps3 or xbox gman?

nichorob · 13 Jan 2011 at 11:57

I think i'm the only one never to have connection problems, although I am on Xbox, I set my search to local and always end up in games where I have 4/4 bars 75% of the time or 3 bars the rest, never lower. And this is on a crappy 5mb TalkTalk ADSL connection via wireless.

I also have to say I am loving Black Ops, favourite COD yet for multiplayer. Although I have had it since launch day an am only level 32 no prestige! Finally getting positive K/D ratios on a regular basis now as well.

Connection issues are rife on the PS3, it really is god damn awful.

So many times host switching fails and everyones booted back to the lobby, then unexplainably that lobby closes. Then you find another lobby and have the same bloody problem! At times it seems hard to get a full game per 30 minutes

Edit: Anyone know why I'm getting such a big blank space between my post and signature? I can never get rid of it, while other users don't seem to have this problem!

Nothing will get done about the problems as treyarch refuse to admit there are any!
Despite people complaining and saying they play other games fine,treyarch just say it's people's connections that are the problem :mad:

I know, it's ridiculous. All of that money made and they can't even be bothered to fix a few issues to keep their customers happy.

It seems to just be the PS3 version as well.

cheets64 · 13 Jan 2011 at 15:53

I cant even get a game on BT internet, I can connect to wager games no problem but try and play a TDM or other game mode and it just searches until it quits its self

Last Kronin · 13 Jan 2011 at 15:57
