General Chat / Black Ops II

infected for life!

First of all, predator missiles are a five killstreak.

4-killstreak with hardline, excuse me. care package is 4 killstreak right? 3 with hardline. and care packages regularly give out pave-lows and ah-6s.

If you don't want to be vulnerable to them, use Blind Eye or a Trophy System.

another point to prove how insane the perks can be. if you were in war and there was a chopper outside aiming for you, would you mindlessly run out in the open? common sense says no. now instead of realizing there is a threat outside and staying inside, just throw on this perk. it just gets nuts after so many perks. it takes away the learning aspect of competition.

i get that the average 'good' player with a 1.4 to 1.6 kd will have a good game here and there... say 25-6. but for a .97 kd player who can't aim, has no tactics, and never got higher than a 6 killstreak to get 30 kills? ridiculous after a while.

I have never played against a kid that has a .37 K/D that went 35-4

you know that was an exaggeration. but people who can't get 8 or 9 kills in a row should not be able to get high killstreaks regularly with care packages at 4 kills. how often does a care package in black ops give you a dogs or a blackbird, hell even an attack helicopter is rare. and that's how it should be, a care package is a random gamble. higher killstreaks have less chance and lower kilstreaks have higher chances. it's ridiculous when there is constant air support. and people who can't learn to burst fire to kill at a distance shouldn't be exempt from learning that skill. isn't it fun to learn the ropes and get better at something through progression? mw3 let's you bypass those basic shooter 'skills'.

You cry about the kick proficiency diminishing all recoil, but upon extensive play of the game I know that your weapon will begin to rise if your just holding down the trigger.

throw kick on an acr, and there is virtually no kick. by the time any kick at all comes into play, you've already killed the person. i'm not crying. i just think it's ridiculous that anybody can kill anybody across the map.

are you saying that the maps in COD 4 are bad as well?

no. but how often, in co4, did you spawn in somebodys killcam? not often, if ever.

However, for you to go on a rant, with multiple typos that detract from your argument, to say that IW and MW3 are trash is completely moronic.

no, i loved cod4. everybody did. IW was great there. but they rode the wave or popularity and got lazy. spawns were absolutely horrid in mw3. why? uneven map design. i've literally spawned in the killcam. not around the corner or below, but in. mission is a perfect example of lazy map design. the side where you spawn below the cliff. the opposite team controls the right side, and the top of the cliff. where do i go when i spawn below? i'm instantly trapped due to the horrid and lazy map design. now don't get me wrong, there are some great maps. underground was well balanced. downturn and resistance were decent as well. but when you spawn inside killcams and literally die before you see anything... it all falls on map design. it's quite clear which were inspired and which were not.

oh, and i've fixed your typo in the above quote. it's the internet, get over it.

Again, you make some valid statements. However, the perks are included to balance the killstreaks just as they are in Black Ops. Ghost Pro makes you undetectable from air support just as Blind Eye does. By relating the perks to a real life scenario makes me believe that you are forgetting it's a video game. If you want to play something more realistic, go play Battlefield 3. Also, you continue to bring up how the higher killstreaks can get out of hand. Simple solution, that I may not have put enough emphasis on, is the Stinger. Accrediting kids that use the ACR is something that I never do. That gun is for fucking noobs and I find it pretty damn sad when someone has to use that thing to kill me, let alone with kick on it. With that said, there have been noob cannons in every Call of Duty game and it is something that needs to be accepted. I'm not trying to attack you here RMM, but I read these statements, and it makes me believe you are unaware of equipment and secondary weapons that can really prevent the opponents killstreaks from escalating. Now, there is something Treyarch did in Black Ops that I like, the killstreaks do not stack which makes it more difficult to get dogs or a gunship. However, the chopper gunner killstreak is only a 9 killstreak and that thing has the potential to rain down on fools if no one is carrying a Strela-3. The premise behind my counter-argument is that players of Call of Duty need to remember it is a video game and it is always going to have unrealistic aspects. Black Ops 2 may or may not be a bust and have some crazy bullshit, just as every other game had, but we consumers really shouldn't expect anything too different than the Call of Duty's of the past.

Black Ops 2 gameplay from today's E3.

My days of Cod multiplayer are completely over Severe carpal tunnel

Oh well. I look forward to Zombies.

Also - Halo4 looked way better

Black Ops 2 gameplay from today's E3.

It looks really good, totally unrealistic, but decent. I thought the game was supposed to be set in the 2020's and there is no way some of that technology will be available.

The gameplay was so limited though...it told you where to go and everything

At least its only campaign. I only play campaign for different games like Uncharted 3 not for COD though.

I guess it's just me. Cod is done for me

I guess it's just me. Cod is done for me

I'm so sorry. I just looked up what the carpal tunnel was and I'm so sorry for it.
Can it heal over time or is it permanent?

looks as fast paced and fluid as ever.

in other news... xbox live made me change my gamertag. instead of dixNOT, it is now dixKNEES.

Multiplayer anyone?
Quickscoping returns?

I want to see some zombies

I want to see some zombies

I will post it when the gameplay comes out.

rct2isboss, the face of Black Ops 2.

On a serious note, this game actually looks pretty cool. Wouldn't mind playing a few games before I drop $60 again.

I'd only consider it if it has some serious zombie upgrades.. they seriously could make a game in itself out of it, there's soo much they could add.

^They moved Zombies into their Multiplayer engine, which allows more zombies, and game modes. There is going to be 4x4 Zombies.

i will crush everybody in this black ops as well.


looks like it really stays true to gun vs. gun combat. the lack of constant air support excites me.

<3 treyarch.

RMM, we should party up sometime. I am curious.

sure thing.
