COD Black Ops looks pretty good on PC

I have been working lots and so have only played it a little bit so far (currenty think it's pretty good) but my brother who has played it far more (he only works weekends) is saying the maps are not as diverse or as good as MW2.. now that means MW2

runs better,
amazingly has less lag
in parts looks better,
has better maps,

hmmm what are others opinions on the maps in particular?

the maps in BO are ok but i do think the MW2 maps are better

but then again maybe its because im used to them
 
unless you just run around with dual semi auto shotguns (which are just stupid but awesome at the same time providing you're about 2ft away :p)

I tried those for a laugh, thinking akimbo shotguns, Boom Boom!

How wrong i was. They suck to be honest. Feels like you have to be in someones face to get a kill. Went back to the 2nd shotgun lol.
 
Yea that map is insanely retarded. Never get a kill on that map.

Never get a kill, what are you doing? :p Nuketown is a good way of ranking up quick if you ask me. You always have enemies right in front of you so can rack up loads of quick and easy frags.
 
Yeah, it's a joke, the server provider cannot cope with anywhere near the traffic and demand that they should be able too. It'ss ridiculous anyway, why monopolize the server market? I see literally no benefit to only having 1 server provider who cannot cope. If servers were done in the traditional way, which worked, servers would have enough bandwidth and admins could change the server config themselves, fixing the problem. As it is, they cannot, and lag problems remain.

This situation with 1 server provider is hardly any better than MW2 IWnet rubbish, FFS Treyarch open it up to other providers.

The rationale makes sense on paper doesn't it? Having a more closed system means less room for abuse, whether that be hacking or boosting.
 
Right i want to play now, hope they patch it during the day.

Running around with an smg in 15fps spraying people down has got boring.
 
Has anyone tried it today? Apparently this has happened ..

"PC community. We are listening and have been working on updates. We have deployed a couple already below, more to come. Stay tuned here.

Game was still unplayable last night. Good crack on the text chat though.
My fav was .. " game is nothing amazing but the lag is!"

Just tried it, not sure if it's any different. Certainly the final killcam still runs at about one frame per second :rolleyes:
 
Just got booted from my first server by a butthurt admin, went 32-1 and just before the round ended he kicked me out. Went back in to the usual bs "Making room for clan member", laughable.

I did notice though, no kill streak rewards go towards your top kill streak, which is a shame, so instead of being 31 it is only 18. :(

This is my only memory of my blinder of a game :(

Just interested to know, how did you get that bear in your gaming card? Was it one you just have to unlock or did you upload it yourself?
