COD Black Ops looks pretty good on PC

IMO MW2 is much better than this, I have to be honest. If they don't improve this a lot then I see a lot of people sticking with MW2. (And COD 4)

MW2 is only better currently cause it doesn't lag (if you host) and it runs smoother

once they fix those 2 issues cant see how mw2 has anything on this

MW2 has great maps, I can't yet judge how Black Ops's maps compare as I've only played a handful.

The sound is also very lacking - weak / muffled guns & explosions compared to MW/MW2. World at War was much the same actually. Also the music / effects when you level up / complete a challenge / get a killstreak etc. etc. are crap on this. Okay not everyone will care about those, but they add to the enjoyment for me and the MW games have those nailed.

Because they don't want to admit they just forked out £30-40 for the same game they've been playing the last couple of years just worse?

MOH 2 is out already??? :confused:

I have said before,the more people buy rubbish the less they can complain about ports etc,

MW2 is the biggest selling game of all time but remains an overall flop on pc MP wise, even the boycott mob buckled days after release

MOH will be dead now that this is out, long term will go down as a flop cause it had no real lifespan

BC2 died when MOH came out, had a good run and IMO still the best shooter out there, needs maps and SDK

And COD:BO will rule until BC2:vietnam comes out

But we buy anyway so why should the devs care

Ohh how I await thee BF3 saviour....................yeah right

Still i bought this, skipped MOH and got BC2:V for £6.39 :D

What you buy is what your stuck with in the current pc gaming climate

Well after about 1 1/2 hrs playing this.

Single player seems OK. Seems like it will be the similar cod experience so that's nice.

Multiplayer, I'm almost rank 9 now. Really enjoying it. So far, i prefer the maps to most of the mw2 maps. Had 0 issues with lag. Fps didn't seem to be an issue except for the bigger maps (was running high textures, max af, 2x aa).
 
Unlocked and played 15 minutes of MP before PC crashed, had to power it off. Now everytime I start the server browser the game stops responding. The game I did play was very laggy, even though my ping was 60.

Edit: Just tried to just join Ranked game and game crashes by not responding.

Going to try SP and leave MP until the morning, got the day off anyway.

I have never like any of Treyarchs previous COD's.

I took back for a refund WAW, after realising that it was nothing compared to COD4 which I had got bored of, but then realised how good it actually was!

My God man, have you ever played COD4?

MW2's maps were embarrassing, out of them all I can only think of Highrise and Favela and that's it. On COD4, every map was amazing. I looked forward to playing them all unlike MW2's.

From what i've seen so far, Black Ops maps seem to be a tad big for my liking but at least they don't have 3-4 storeys to them which turned most maps into camp fests.
 
Had a quick game of the multiplayer.. i say multiplayer but i couldn't actually play online.. it said there were 7000+ servers 6000+ players but i could not actually see any of them and the play ranked button just paused for a second then said it also couldn't join a game...

Playin against the bots the game seems very similar to mw2... although worryingly the graphics do seem worse.. .that and the first gun is the m16 and i dont like burtst fire guns :D
 
mm does not sound promising, well Ive not even tried to install it yet, off to bed home most the day tomorrow so will have a crack at it before lunch ..best they have a patch out by then :D
