Oxigen_Waste Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 I completed it all on Vet, mostly cool, but there are like 3 or 5 particular bits which are just a case of bad game design. The tunnel is one of them, yeah! (for lack of checkpoints... you go through it all and die just at the end? Start over... which is ridiculous) But the barrel part? Just ridiculous. It's better than WaW in general, though... in WaW enemies had infinite grenades, so you couldn't even stop to catch your breath most of the time... *sigh*

I never even managed to complete WaW on veteran, may give it ago again but i just feel like i will break the disc in frustration!!
Cube Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 It's better than WaW in general, though... in WaW enemies had infinite grenades, so you couldn't even stop to catch your breath most of the time... *sigh* I gave up on WaW on Normal mode.
Oxigen_Waste Posted November 27, 2010 Posted November 27, 2010 I gave up on WaW on Normal mode. Then you were being a fag, Cube. Seriously, up 'till hardened it's quite a cool game (at least the russian/german part... didn't care for the american/japanese part of the campaign, myself). But on Vet it was just terrible. Seriously, anyone who completed it on Vet is a masochist.
Oxigen_Waste Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 Holy shit, I've only just realized... the Enfield is a motherfucking beast!! I sort of "skipped" it and went straight to the FAMAS, since everyone was saying it wasn't that great, but dear god, is it good!
Caris Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Anyone wanna get the Zombies achievements with me and chuck over the weekend?
Cookyman Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 From Joystiq Latest PS3 firmware update brings the bans for Black Ops hacks Dirty, dirty Black Ops cheaters that downloaded the new PS3 firmware, update 3.56, are finding out exactly what Sony meant when it said the patch would help bolster "security." A grip of consoles have been permanently banned from Black Ops multiplayer servers for hacking or cheating after their users installed the new firmware -- though some of the outspoken among the banned are contesting the presumption that they are cheaters on the game's official forums. (Which is like, the first thing you'd do if you were a dirty, dirty cheater.) In a seemingly cooperative attack executed by two mortal enemies, firmware 3.56 joins last week's mandatory Xbox Live update, which also stopped pirated and modded copies of Black Ops and Modern Warfare 2 in their tracks. Is Activision's cash cow so powerful that the publisher can request its own console updates at will? If that's the case, Activision: Would you please, please ask Sony to add cross-game chat?
AndyWylde Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 So who's going to be getting the new map pack tomorrow? I personally have a love/hate relationship with Black Ops, but will definitly be getting the map pack!
MadDog Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Is it the same as Modern Warfare 2, as in they come out on XBL before PSN?
AndyWylde Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Is it the same as Modern Warfare 2, as in they come out on XBL before PSN? Correct, not sure of the exact date it will debut on the PSN but it's sometime in February.
Murr Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Well Stadium is awesome, really enjoying that level, especially on Domination. Managed to have some great games on that level. Discovery - I'm slowly starting to like more and more, again Domination is brilliant, Flag B is so open. Get a good spot to guard it (if your team have it) and you can have a great K/D ratio Kowloon - I FUCKING HATE - wow... I don't think I'll ever enjoy this level. I Cant recall one spot on the map where your safe. It seems that at any point in the level you can be taken out from multiple directions at multiple heights in the level. Berlin - Played this level the least, and not really familiar with it yet, so cant judge. I like the theme though, takes me back to COD 1 / 2 days on PC which is welcome.
Cube Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Stadium - The worst match I've ever had on Black Ops. Kowloon - Enjoyable if the other team isn't camping. Berlin - The middle section with the guns seems pointless. Other than that it seems to be a good tactical map. Discovery - Very enjoyable, with loads of great places.
Zechs Merquise Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Kowloon - I FUCKING HATE - wow... I don't think I'll ever enjoy this level. I Cant recall one spot on the map where your safe. It seems that at any point in the level you can be taken out from multiple directions at multiple heights in the level. I watched a making of doc on this and Treyarch said they broke several of their golden rules when designing this one so it would feel different. I really like the look of the maps though, however I would really like to see Asylum and Upheaval from WAW, although I know a lot of people didn't like seeing old maps in MW2.
Oxigen_Waste Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 I think they should just release every single map from every single previous COD game for each game for like 1500 points. I doubt anyone would complain and they'd make immense profits.
Dyson Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 You can trade in Black Ops for £33 at GAME atm. The more you know..
The fish Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Sadly it will now never happen, but I'd have loved to have seen CoD and CoD2's maps either directly imported or reskinned (a-la Chinatown in MW and the updated Brecourt in MW2) for the next IW CoD. Some of those maps were absolutely amazing, especially with old-style Headquarters. Pavlov, Toujane, Carentan, Depot, Dawnville/St. Mere Eglise, Harbour, Railyard/Stalingrad... Actually, add Crash, Shipment, Overgrown, Vacant and Crossfire, all from CoD4, and that would be one epic multiplayer map pack...

That's one thing that pisses me off when buying DLC Maps for each Cod or MW game, they never carry over. Granted the maps just bought for Black Ops are the first I've bought since Modern Warfare1. But still, there are some great levels on each game from COD4,W@W,MW2, and some great maps from COD1 as you've mentioned. Do Activision actually own the rights to the maps? or are IW & Treyarch each responsible for them? Cause Activision should do something along the lines of the Halo2 Map Pack but make them continue on thoughout each game in the series, maybe baring a few of the shitter ones.
daftada Posted February 7, 2011 Posted February 7, 2011 If they could somehow beef up the options in Combat Training I'd be a happy bunny.
Murr Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 If they could somehow beef up the options in Combat Training I'd be a happy bunny. Yeah sometimes when I get frustrated with multiplayer i'll switch to Combat training, and have a laugh, but just TDM is slightly lame, would be good if they could introduce new game types with the bots. Domination would be quite cool. or Demolition.
Oxigen_Waste Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Meh, combat training is cool, but pretty much useless. Anyway, how bad are the ps3 hacks so far?
MATtheHAT Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Anyway, how bad are the ps3 hacks so far? I've recently started playing Blops again, after falling out with it. I have not seen one hacked game in the 50 or so I have played so far. Both Modern Warfare's, however, are completely unplayable.
Kav Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 I love being able to play split screen online on this. Although it can make for confusion when you think you hear enemy footsteps but it's your friend's on the other half of the screen! Haha
