O M G.... Its on Locky pal!!! I'l rain down on your a$$
Pretty impressed with Black Ops now. Wasnt at first as it ran awfully on my old PC even tho it just met the minimum requirements. Since I've upgraded it runs like a dream and very rarely get lag.
The single player is brilliant even tho I've not yet completed it.
Not really a fan of Nuke Town but it's OK I guess for leveling up.

The game STILL runs very poorly on both SP and MP.
MW2 SP runs at around 50% higher FPS on my PC compared to BO and it looks better.
An considering BO is on dedicated servers I get a better experince from MW2's locally hosted games.
Best of it is, all the MW2 hackers have buggered off to BO. Had some good clean games on MW2 tonight and didn't notice any lag.
The mind boggles as to how Treyarch could have made such a bad fist of BO. A game engine they have been using for years and years and they have the advantage of dedicated servers over MW2.

Hmm is it confirmed that ATI owners are experincing same issues with BO?
Not at all. I have a dinosaur rig ... [email protected], 4 Gb Ram, XFi Xtreme Gamer, 4870 1Gb, Asus P5E, W7 x64 Ult.
I run settings as high as they'll go, then back off the setting of texture quality from very high to high. With fps enabled, very rarely do I see it dip into the red, I reckon its zipping along EASY at 80-90. Lagometer is smooth blue and smooth green ... well, on our UK server at least, obviously get the odd spike on our Stateside server.
Nope, I have an ATI 6870 GFX Card and running the game very smoothly and very rarely get server lag.
Running it on 1920*1080 with High Grahpics Full AA/AF and getting a pretty decent frame rate.
Ya know, I hear this a lot. I'm a PB Bans SGA and an AoN PSA, active in E-Dom league and spend time reviewing Theatre demos if I think someone is dodgy or a visitor/member has reported a particular player. I reckon I have reviewed oh say, 100 demos and I have to say that I have only banned one player on our servers because in my opinion they were using cheats.
One thing I know for sure, and any member of PB Bans will back me up on this, hence the requirement to provide a demo for review ... you CANNOT POSSIBLY know if someone is cheating in-game if you are an active player in that game. Spectating real-time, perhaps, demo review perhaps, but no way in-game. Sorry.
If someone is using a blatant aimbot then it is rather easy to know in-game. I agree though that a lot of times people will think someone is cheating when they aren't.
Yup. Its fairly easy to spot a blatant cheater ingame, saying it isnt is a bit stupid - if someone is aiming at you through a wall and follows you so he can shoot then its obvious, if it occurs repeatedly then its even more so - Im not saying that you can spot all hackers but quite a few are obvious to all.
What I really dont like is the accusations being thrown purely because you have a decent KD ratio, got a lucky shot in a popular camper area or your reactions beat the other guy. People get whiny as soon as they can, I had a good game when I first joined this server with around 19 kills and 3 deaths, not amazing and not bad either, but because the other team were pretty rubbish, they just complained about hacking and whined about camping (they said I was camping after running into their house and killing a few then setting off the mortar team......). People like to complain, even more so when they clearly suck at the game and need an excuse for it. Its like bring a moron to blackops day today I swear....

I hate acqusations of hacking.. reminds me of my youth on CS. Was banned from so many servers. If you learn to play a game at a high level you have a "game sense" and it allows you to predict where players will be. Along with high quality headphones for footsteps etc. Most players don't care to play the game in such detail.
And what auraindigo said is correct. You can never truely know.. especially if the hacker is so slight. For example, hacks when round on CS:S recently, that you could specify an angle in which the hack will search for a head hitbox and move the cursor there at a specified amount of time (which you could set to be random). Bind that to a key and it's nigh on impossible to detect. Press mouse 4 and it'll take between 0.1-0.5 seconds to move your move to the hit box. Then left click and they're dead.
Still, you can tell by hesitation before/after the kill and unless they're veteran players, it doesn't look smooth.. they don't have that game sense, they die from behind far too many times, etc.
Just play LAN if you're high league.
As for COD, VAC takes time to weed out the basic implemented hacks, hopefully they'll start monitoring the files that are being modified or search for extra processes.
PC games are a hackers playground.

lol at calling black ops and vac yet mw2 uses same which is ten times worse 
as for certain cheat protection lol ive shown videos of people blatently aimbotting and because of a spelling mistake on one submission they said upload again
never bothered after that. also one guy i know came from the biggest hackers ever in cod and hes in one of the leading places lol yet if your clan has cheaters in it or you know of cheaters your not even allowed to stream its comedy gold and all bs.
also edom played five matches after rejoining in cod and first 5 matches 4 of those were clans with cheaters in. its so rife its pointless unless you lanning .same with 90 percent of leagues thats why i gave up playing in them lol.
some hacks in cod 4 havent been caught once since day one. they could sort them easy but i guess theres more money to be made.

Aimbots set to heads are a no brainer, same as anybody racking up 2 kills a second. Hey, I'm not denying that there aren't cheats playing the game but I'm just not seeing the "one a side" every match. Those that cry "hax" in-game or just think they have seen cheats really should use the Theatre function. Just yesterday, I could have sworn 100% I had a guy hacking, just seemed to pwn our whole team from anywhere on the map. Theatre mode review revealed he was a closet camper and harly moved from around the centre of the map where he had access to all the spawn exits. He'd obviously done his homework about how the map logix worked, not my style but I commend his awareness. You have no chance if some bloke is ADS at the doorway you are sprinting thru
Who was that then? Got two E-Dom admins in xfire eagerly awaiting your response

it was a while ago and i reported who they were 
the point was 4 out of first five matches played . after that i pulled our lot out as it was a joke.
thing is with a lot of these admins a lot have the hierarchy type mentality and if they dont agree you have no chance. whether your right or wrong.

Was this 4 out of the 5 matches, you got pwned therefore they were cheating? If you were in-game then you couldn't possibly have recorded demos and I have yet to find a single server admin on E-Dom that would condone cheating in any way shape or form.
Have you ever set up an E-Dom match server? The counter-measures and criteria for anti-cheat go far beyond what a standard public server requires.
I get absolutely slaughtered in some matches, I'm not as quick as I was in my younger days though I never suspect cheats automatically. From a server admin perspective, if you contacted me about a suspected cheat, I would at least keep an eye out for them and spec/demo them if they came around again, I wouldn't dismiss what you say, even if the player belonged to either my community or was just a regular.

have i ever set a match server up = yes (lol)
the counter measures are a joke like i told you 4 teams out of first 5 WERE hacking ! demos proved it and using illegal scripts.
i even found details of other hacked games or bans they had.
the league is for low - med its not even a high league/ladders on there.
one guy even got banned before starting one match lol his team then said hurry up we want to start
comedy goldive played with some of the best in the world i know whos decent and whos hacking lol.the games comp wise are rife with hacks. the only way your gunna be pretty sure theres no hacks is lans.
