Call of Duty: Black Ops

[Solyhniya]

Really decent game this, was just playing it online now. Makes MW2 look like a steaming pile of shite!

...which isn't too hard, I guess

[New Korongo]

It would be cool if they created a game mode called 'open' and it would feature a very large map with vehicles and lots of players creating a sort of open ended multiplayer.

So more like Battlefield 2, or MAG or something?

They have those games.

Sorta

Battlefield 2?
Battlefield 1942?
Batlefield 2142?

I had been hoping for WaW II honestly. I wanted vehicles. I had WaW on the Wii, so didn't get vehicles in MP, or Nazi Zombies.

Love that game...don't interact on the community at all though.

[Grandais]

Oh, I don't go on the forums. I just RP in the middle of a battle.

If ever you see some guy typing in broken English: 'I AM FASTEST TANK IN SOVIET UNION. COMRADE <name redacted> LOVES YOU! LET'S ALL HAVE A DRINK AFTER THE BATTLE' that's me.

[Qazox]

This one is really more about spectacle than substance. The first time I blew a guy's arm off with a shot from a 9mm pistol I was kind of like "what?"

The game really seems to be all about testosterone and machismo, really. Like how a bunch of random guards burning to death in the Baikonur level don't deserve mercy.

It's also a very linear game. You WILL go where it tells you and do EXACTLY what it tells you. Even a lot of those 'in game cutscenes' have been cut down...I remember a few where it basically gave me only ONE direction to go in and wouldn't let me move my camera at all.

You want my opinion, wait until this game goes to the bargain bin before you get it. It's a one trick pony.

SPOILER ALERT!!! If you have not completed the Campaign mode of Black Ops, then don't bother reading this:

The Reason why it is so linear is because It is all flashbacks/memories of the character

And my new favourite zombie level.

I wish they still had spec ops, that was a great part of MW2. I plan on buying this right after my philosophy paper is due, along with Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. I am so glad they have splitscreen online now, like seriously how long has Halo had that feature? But I'm not sure how I feel about this whole 'you can't quick-scope' thing.

you can quickscope, but there is only a small chance of hitting the target. I do miss coop campaign but spec ops was a just boring, zombies are much better

Holy god really, I just played you two days ago then.

Co-op campaigns were never really that good for me. To be honest, I don't think I've ever completed a CoD campaign other than World at War. Its all about chatting with stoned college nerds while cussing out some stupid 10 year old shitbag that doesn't know what he's doing.

[Soufrika]

The "COD Points" system works for me. On one hand, it's irritating to have to work up enough points to buy something. On the other hand, in previous games, so was getting the kills or headshots to unlock it in the first place. And the customization...it's awesome!
There could have been a better weapons selection, especially since quite a few of them weren't even in production—let alone designed—in the '60s. I would have liked to see the M2 carbine, Vz. 58, SKS, Type 63, and perhaps the Thompson, for nostalgia's sake. But damn if lighting up NVA with incendiary shells from a SPAS-12 wasn't fun!
Haven't finished Campaign yet, but it's left me impressed. I especially enjoyed "Operation 40," "S.O.G.," "The Defector," and "Crash Site."
This is Treyarch's best, all right.

[Carbarosia]

Does anyone have PSN? If so, I could do 1v1. Btw, almost first prestige.

[New Korongo]

Me and my friends found a glitch on "Five" yesterday

[Great Valencia]

I traded BO for CoD 4. CoD 4 brings back memories, and is actually GOOD.

BO was a huge let down, and a horrible disgrace to the CoD series

[Nightkill the Emperor]

Everyone I know has it.

actually it's so linear because the maps are poorly designed and based around scripted events rather than fluid gameplay

The window glitch where you jump on the boards?

Yeah, sure.

[Greal]

After this COD, I'm never getting another one. Activision is plainly just using it to milk cash. We've got a third person COD and MW3 coming out next year.

I wonder when people will wake up.
