I noticed that there wasn't a general discussion on this game so here it is.
It's not far away now so who getting this game when released? I know MW2 left a sour taste with PC gamers and I still haven't bothered with that game...but I'm tempted to give this one a chance if they have dedicated servers.

Personally, I love being shot in the back after I've cleared an area.

That map was absolutely ****ing terrible.

most of BLOPS maps are terrible havent played it in ages now

Concur. They're ****ing awful.

I like them. The only problem with them are campers. But they're the most balanced maps in any CoD game imo. That's the thing people don't like though, the balance. There are no real exploits. Well except on Nuketown. Example being a game where I got mortar team, chopper gunner and dogs, resulting in this score and 26,000xp...

Sorry for the crappy quality, but that's a score of 96-16.

wouldn't mind if they added MW2, COD 4 and some COD 2 maps to Blackops :P

I'm sure people will remake them when mod tools are released. I'd like to see; Favela, Terminal, Karachi, Rundown, Skidrow, Crash, Overgrown, Strike, Vacant, Carentan and Toujane.

Have you looked through the Unranked servers? They can be lots of fun when the Ranked ones are being crap.

In fact, I think the MMGN server should be unranked, as there are a lot more options to mess around with. Also TEAM KILLING CAN BE TURNED OFF. The only reason ranked servers are limited in options to choose from is because of the stupid leaderboards. We're not the console community, we don't care about leader-****ing-boards. Look at CoD4, no leaderboards and you can customise a ton of things on servers. Same with WaW.

@gdmatt its not so much that the game itself is ****, i think since treyarch done cod 3 i thought they ****** it, then COD4 come in and infinity Ward done an awesome job, then W@W come out, and the shadowed everything there was with the previous only it was ******* and now with Black ops lagging, stuttering, maps aren't well designed characters look like washed up hobo's sent to war; texturing, game graphics looks pretty horrible considering its gen, not enough clarity in comparison to MW2 BFBC etc but thats just my opinion and im sure theres a million out there who love this game more than their own parents... its an OK game but BLOPS doesn't do it for me

Do you remember BFBC2's release? 475,000x worse then this.

I've had problems with every 3rd map crashing BLOPS, but I think I've sorted it now... For those having issues, wherever there is an auto setting for graphics, change it so there's actually a value there. Since I've done that I've played 8 maps back to back with no issues...

BFBC2's release was fine, it had bugs and balance issues but not problems on this scale.

It was completely unplayable for the majority of people.

I remember the menu + friends system + server browser bring really buggy, but the actual game was fine.
Has been a hell of a lot of patches for all kinds of fixes here and there though.

Black ops though.... Completely unplayable for a large amount of PC players.
By no means the majority but still a large amount.

Well I did and I know there was a pretty large thread on some forum that I can't remember [Shifty]
Meh, BC2 turned out to be a great game and Blops is great when it works, which for me is all the time, for others that's not the case though.

Well when you say "the majority" and I've literally never heard of a single person despite knowing probably well over 20 people who play that, I seriously doubt it.

Black Ops on the other hand, I knew almost no one who was not experiencing issues, and many were quite literally game breaking. BC2 was dodgy and probably still is, but it worked for pretty much everyone.

@Skarteh: Well before the last patch it ran perfectly, now the lag, stutters and freezes are back from when it was released [Rage]
