***Black Ops 2***

Bought the game yesterday - got Mass Effect on Disc 2 instead :(
Tried to install this morning when I found out, how incredibly bad is this?

Not sure where I will stand on this as stores won't take games back? If I now try and download it, surely it will say serial key already in use?

look at youtube a few people had this the shop probably knows about this and has probably had some returned so id swap it, make sure they check the game though!
 
Yeah I noticed a mass of news updates when I googled it, gonna try and download and install later tonight - if that works, awesome! I'll then take the game back for a refund :p
(best buy are usually pretty good with that and I'll just show them in the store)
 
well.. I gave this ago I stopped playing at the point of riding horses with china men armed with a stinger missile taking out 7-8 helis then switching to "ground mode" all done while galloping a horse..and taking out tanks aswell.......*face palm*

Just add the game to your Steam account using the serial number on the back of the manual and activate and download it from Steam.
 
Really enjoying this game atm but it needs a lot more maps as they are already getting boring. Nuketown is just manic and I love it but can only handle 20 minutes as my heart rate must be going through the roof, I find this game tiring am I the only one feeling old?

Feel free to add me. I'm mainly laming with a Vector K10 atm :-D
 
MY GOD. These fricking map load times are ridiculous. is it just me? My machine runs most things on max, yet takes at least 2-3 mins for me to load, that is if it even gets into the game. Usually it's a 4 min wait then a d/c message......

Once i'm in the game the performance is absolutely fine.

Anyone know a fix? I've googled it but can't find anything :S

Load times are fine for me and really quick. Might be worth telling us ur pc spec.
 
AMD Phenom II x4 955 3.2GHz
ATI Radeon HD 5770
4 GB Ram
HDD @ 7200
Win 64 bit

It's above the specs and I've played every other of the CoD series absolutely fine. When loading, my CPU is at 50-60% usage and RAM between 2.5-3GB.
 
I'm loading maps within 2-3 seconds on an SSD :/ You sure the HDD is in good health?

PS: Best setup - 6 perks, 1 stun pen thingy, no weapons, KNIFE PARTY TIME. Oh god the rage, people moan over comms, text, etc... got the gold knife over 2 sessions. Pub tears are so delicious.

Damn im reading from multiple sources confirming the same issues im personally seeing with lag compensation on "public" style instant games.... It seems the league style ladder games don't suffer from or even use the same lag compensation BS....

Cant beleive you guys are not noticing the same thing ? Maybe it only really hurts very very low ping players.

I get a 'lite' version of this. The loading bar shoots across to 100% in around 5 seconds (SSD), then the game just sits there doing nothing for a wee while. It sits on "awaiting textures" or "waiting for players" and then puts me into the game after the countdown is over. I've never seen the countdown since I've started playing.

I'm using an HD5770 as well. The last time I experienced something like this is was with Bad Company 2 and it had something to do with shader warming if I remember correctly.

Not sure whats wrong with everyones loading times, I don't even see the loading screen for longer than a few seconds and it's not even on an SSD.
