Call of Duty: Black Ops

it really frustrates me how crap i am at this game.

Was talking with Mcluvin and Mischief's dad earlier today about how pants i am. The last two games i had today just epitomise what goes wrong with my game. On Stadium i see a bloke running towards me, aim down the sights and start firing first. He's got a bloody pistol, starts firing after me, and takes me out. Then there was the game on berlin, where some bloke was going around no scoping with a sniper rifle. I'm feet away from him and despite the fact i've got an AK47 he wins !

Drives me insane. Check my recent games in the replay theatre if you want to see what i mean.

Bless mischief's dad, he got so fed up of me being crap on friday he left and joined another game. I hate being crap at this game :(

I was the same..... until I moved house then I started being as good as I thought I should be :p Connection is still the primary think on a twitch game like this. Helps to minimise anything your end like TV lag etc.

Ive heard people mention 'im not good enough to notice stuff that' but it could be the exact reason you never win the one on ones with 100ms of input lag on a TV. You can't often predict what people are going to do but it helps when you can see what they do. :)
 
I'm not that impressed with the maps in the map pack. Berlin wall is my fav of the bunch. Stadium is ok i guess, they all just feel really uninspired and I cant tell if its too much COD rotting my brain or just poor map design.
 
Stadium is an absolute cracker of a map.

I played a HQ game where the HQ spawned in the recessed area around the fountain and it was just carnage. It was so easily accessible from both spawns that neither of us could capture it. I had flack jacket on absorbing all the grenades and tactical mask to survive all the gas and flashbangs that kept getting thrown in.

It was incredible.
 
So I've decided to use this setup now, let me know what you think -

Famas (Silencer)
CZ75

Ghost, sleight of hand (which I really like) and hacker.

Any suggestions on the perks? Not sure if ghost is the best one to have?

Cheers

That's pretty much the class i'm using at the moment. I like to use the ballistic knife just because it's fun to use. Although I generally have a class set up with a launcher to shoot down air support - it really isn't wise letting the other team have a chopper gunner up for ages!
 
I tend to use the following:

Ghost, Warlord, Ninja - Famas with Silencer + Extended Mags/Galil with reflex site + Extended Mags/AK and Commando with the same.

Ghost, the breathing perk, Ninja - L96 or WA2000 with extended mags. Don't like the Draganov.
 
Well been playing this for about a week now, enjoying it a lot but it has a lot of downfalls to say its biggest selling console game ever.

The lag issue is doing my head in... Say for instance, i run around a corner spot enemy, start shooting at him for about half a hour (the little hit target comes up to say ive hit him plenty of times), he doesn't die and returns 1 bullet and im dead...Or when i have clearly knifed them before they knifed me ..Then i watch the killcam thing and he's actually been shooting/knifed me way before i could actually spot him .<<<<<< Well this problem could be down to the internet im using at moment, as its on a 1MB line till 21st of this month when Sky should eventually get there arse into gear and sort my line out.

Kids on there mic.... Well....

Also Clays everywhere (on flags) and panzy's what sit in corners/edges/rooftops all day.... Beyond me how these people find it fun to sit around and get easy kills.

Other than them issues and a few other little one's, i think its a great game and will tide me over until the new Fight Night:Champions comes out.
 
Being killed in stupid ways is the worst, e.g, being killed by bullets which can sharply bend round corners, napalm which seems to drag you to it, homing grenades and lag kills where you empty a clip into some guy who kills you in 2 shots. That gets me ranting.

I have a question - Why use ninja? Is it just so you don't have to listen to your footsteps? Which are inconsistent anyway
