Black Ops

[TKz]

Works for me? I've been having a great time with multiplayer. I'm already halfway to Prestige and I've only played something like 7-8 hours online so far this week.

[Robsturgh]

Fucking hell, it's taking upwards of 30 minutes sometimes for me and friends to actually join a game. It's terrible.

[SeanDMan]

EDIT: Yeah, and then you didn't bother to say hello SDM

I don't have a headset.

Yeah, SDM is a cock. He invited me to a party, then closed it instantly, so I message him and he never replied

I had no idea what the fuck you were mumbling about.

[Guest JukeboxHero]

Man, they REALLY cranked up the difficulty in zombie mode.

Even with me on this piece of shit game

Sell-out.

Big story spoilers...

That twist sucked. It's beyond cliché and was telegraphed way too many times to be subtle. Still, the rest of the story (including the Kennedy assassination) was pretty awesome. The game itself was it's usual linear stuff with a few interesting tweaks. I really enjoyed the Command & Conquer-esque mission mixed with ground fighting, that mission should have been longer or happened more than once. I'd hope to see more of Mason in future stories as he's a character with enough potential to actually develop.

The arcade zombie game is amazing.

Zombies is cool, exept it becomes beyond impossible after round 6 or 7, those dogs are a bitch!

[MalaCloudy Black]

There's a video of some dude on Youtube getting up to level 30+ in Zombies, solo. It's crazy.

[Guest JukeboxHero]

Sounds like I need to see said video. I could use some pointers.

In the theater level, my buddy and I got to round 11. In the secret unlockable one, we made it to 8. That level is a bitch.

The new zombie levels are less fun to play, I think. I understand increasing the difficulty, but I think they made it way too hard.

[The Heartbreak Kid]

So you guys going to play CoD with me or what?

[LUKIE]

I would love to play, but they still haven't fixed it.

Well done Treyarch, well done.

[Plubby]

It's fixed, LUKIE just can't aim.

[LUKIE]

Totally fixed. Like totally.

[Benji]

The matchmaking is hilariously bad. Me and another guy were the lowest ranked players in one match when it started, we were promptly placed in a match against FIVE other guys, all of whom were level 30 or higher and none were in clans or groups together.

[EddieRuckus]

It's fixed in the sense that instead of not being able to find a game for 20 minutes and resorting to joining your friends in session to working every 5-10 tries. It's not new though, the same problems happened(at least on 360) with COD4, WaW, and MW2. I remember it was a few weeks before my friends and I could actually party up and get into a game together on MW2.

[DYSI]

Anybody up for some Black Ops? Hit me up at sarcasmDEAD for 360.

[Baddar]

So, I take it game review sites are paid to say that CoD has the best online experience out there (!) then?

To me, it's fun - but it lacks any real depth, and isn't anything special. The matchmaking problems don't help the situation.

I played the hell out of the original Modern Warfare. World at War was cool because of the co-op campaign and the zombies. I got tired of Modern Warfare 2 incredibly quick. I think I was like four or five prestige in the original MW, but only got up to Level 36-40 on the first level in MW2. It just got boring to me. And so I bought this thinking they'd keep in the co-op campaign, and the only thing keeping me from trading it in already is the campaign, which I do want to play, and to see how the other two maps for zombies are. Other than that, I think I'm getting over the COD Multiplayer hype.
