gaming Call of Duty: Black Ops II

[spas-ticShotty 3,584]

Question for all you CoD fans:

 

Is it worth getting Black Ops 2? I have all the other CoD games, and I liked all of them except MW3. However, I've gotten very bored of the CoD series and I wasn't planning on getting BO2, but my friend got it, so now I'm really considering it. So my question basically is...how is it compared to BO1 and is BO2 worth getting?

Hmmmm.......hard to tell..........I think the game is great, but connection issues are rampant. Connection issues alone is making a lot of people hate the game. Other than that, I really really like it, but that may be because I don't get connection problems frequently (Connection problems make the game unplayable at one of mah houses, but the game runs perfect at the other). If this friend is an IRL one, try to play it at his house and judge for yourself. Millions of people already have it, so it won't matter much if you don't get it. Like I said, though, connection problems alone may ruin the game for you. If it doesn't, you may like it a lot.......

Do you think these connection problems will be fixed in the future?

 

Also, my friend is an IRL friend, but he lives like 9 hours away so I wouldn't be able to try the game.

Hmmmm..........I hope it's fixed. David Vonderhaar, the community manager for Treyarch, has been doing a great job on fixing problems through feedback, although he seems a little hesitant to fixing connection problems for some reason.............thing is, so many people are complaining about it, and the fact that not a lot of people are playing Black Ops II because of it, he HAS to fix it in the future, or else he's ruined what could've been the greatest CoD ever to a lot of people. I hope so, 'cause when he does, Vonderhaar will be a "hero" for a lot of people . Edited December 7, 2012 by spas-ticShotty

- Bouncing betties will set off slightly slower than they used to. BAD

- Concussions don't give as much of a penalty on the victim of it. GOOD

- Lightning Strikes will hit their targets slightly slower than they used to, giving a slight time to at least escape death from the blast. GOOD

- 3-hit kill distance of the M8A1 was lowered ( ) AWWW...

- SMGs have bigger hipfire crosshairs. I DONT CARE

- MSMC and PDW-57 have slightly higher recoil. I DONT CARE ABOUT THE MSMC BUT DONT FUCK WITH MY PDW!... WHY?

- MTAR got better auto-aim at a distance to put it on par with the other ARs. BAD

- R870 MCS got a nerf in the maximum 1-hit kill range. I DONT CARE ABOUT THE MCS BUT DONT FUCK WITH MY R870!... WHY? I have it in gold and now I wont even use it anymore..

- Sensor grenades basically got some sort of buff. GOOD

- SMG's lost some penetration power. GOOD

Crap, I had some fun with the B23R, got me so many headshots. Also had a fun time with the R870 in a few matches. Changes aren't too extreme, are they?

[Red Star 23]

 

- UAV got an increase on the amount of points needed to get it.Don't rally car because getting a one is easier than breathing.

 

- Bouncing betties will set off slightly slower than they used to.Hell yeah,now it's going to be easier to

to kill those floor lickig campers.

 

- Concussions don't give as much of a penalty on the victim of it.Dont care because my tacticals of chois are the flashbang,emp and black hat.

 

- Lightning Strikes will hit their targets slightly slower than they used to, giving a slight time to at least escape death from the blast.Don't use it,Don't care.

 

- Any gun using the Select Fire attachment on full-auto has more recoil than before (If used normally, the weapon is the same as before)Well the fal still doesn't have any recoil :3

 

- 3-hit kill distance of the M8A1 was lowered.Don't care.

 

- SMGs have bigger hipfire crosshairs.I have played the game recently and i don't feel any significant difference on the performance of the smg while hipfiering.

 

- MSMC and PDW-57 have slightly higher recoil.Damn you 3ARC for nerfing my favorite rapid fire smg(MSMC).

 

- MTAR got better auto-aim at a distance to put it on par with the other ARs.The Scar H and Type 25 are still my favorite AS :3

 

- R870 MCS got a nerf in the maximum 1-hit kill range.NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

 

- Sensor grenades basically got some sort of buff.Don't care.

 

- SMG's lost some penetration power.Wait SMG had penetration power?Holy crap!

 

- SMG hipfire also has more recoil.I have played the game recently and i don't feel any significant difference on the performance of the smg while hipfiering.(thank god for copy paste)

 

- Reduced idle sway on ARs.THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE!

 

- Sniper rifles get an increase in hipfire spread; applies to laser sight as well.The day i us a sniper rifle in a CoD game will be the day i start camping with the most overpowered weapons in the game and start calling people dickheads over xbox live.

.

- XPR-50 has more recoil.khmhmhm...I don't care.

 

- B23R and KAP-40 have lower headshot multipliers.Honestly I don't see any difference in the performance of those two weapon before the patch and after the patch :/

I got your request and accepted Raptor. Tomorrow night I will be on and ready to play if you are up to it

 

I only play hardcore as well so we will be good there

[spas-ticShotty 3,584]

Dang, the Lodestar is an awesome killstreak (Better than the Reaper from MW3, IMO). I decided to go for that one since I don't usually try to go for them, but I didn't realize how easy it was to get them if you can get the Orbital VSAT. The VSAT isn't the easiest pointstreak to get, but for me, it's not that hard. Once I get the VSAT, it pretty much guarantees me a Lodestar, though . I'm gonna start using the VSAT much more often in order to get stuff like Wathogs and Lodestars, and maybe even VTOL Warships, Dogs, and the dreaded Swarm .

Speaking of the VTOL Warship, I decided to go for it and it wasn't as hard to get as I thought. The VSAT made it a breeze to get, and the VTOL did it's duty damn well. I'm so confident after this that I'm gonna try for the K9 Unit and maybe even the Swarm if I feel lucky tomorrow.

[null1 606]

I'm looking forward to going home tomorrow because I gave the FAL a shot for a few hours Saturday night and loved it, it was pretty amazing.

 

I also should try to play with you guys or something, I see pony emblems occasionally, makes me feel good.

Yeah, the Fal is freaking amazing when your playing hardcore mode

its a 1 shot which makes it a great gun, the Assault Rifle you get 2-3 guns after the Fal (also semi-auto) is a fantastic 1-shot gun as well

Then I might consider making a trip into the Hardcore game rooms. Would want to do it with a buddy though, never really played with anyone on the forums before either. I should make the time.

Be sure to add me (Omega Raptor007) on Xbox

though as I've said before, I ONLY play Hardcore

hate normal mode, when i shot someone, i like them to go down, not run around a corner and heal

Also you gotta be more careful, because you can team kill, lol

so it takes more skill

Okay then, I've only played normal, so I suppose playing with you on Hardcore will be good. I hate playing alone too, it keeps me too focused in a way that I rage too much.

 

I also have to agree with playing on normal, I despise that you get a hit marker if you shoot enemies in the head at point blank.

 

Gamertag is (DeltaTangent), not original, but easy to remember. Won't be online until tomorrow night more than likely.

[spas-ticShotty 3,584]

It seems that I get mad at the game every other day <_<. I guess it's in mah nature to do so, because don't get me wrong, I think this game is the best CoD since 4. I just have a tendency to rage easily. Unfortunately, today was one of those days, even though I did go 52-2 with the SMR . I love that gun, and pair it with the VSAT and Warthog, and you get what game I got on Plaza earlier today .

[im scootaloo 24]

I like Call Of Duty and all but come on! call of duty 9??? seriously how many are they going to make? it is so insane i kind of quit after mw2 ¡ʍʇɟ ʇxǝʇ uʍop ǝpısdn

[Jokuc 8,173]

@, I AM SO FUCKING MAD RIGHT NOW.

I dont know how but somehow my stats in bo2 multiplayer has been reset. Damnit I had 4 golden guns and were in prestige 3 >:C

They'll keep on making it as long as we keep buying it and considering that the numbers don't seem to go down they wont stop making Call of Duty games anymore.

 

The reason why Call of Duty is so popular anyway is because it's a mainstream game.

 

 

On a completely unrelated note: I still haven't been able to rent Call Of Duty Black Ops II since the last time. It's always out of stock in the redbox i go to.

[Skoogles 45]

Okay guys, I finally got Black Ops 2! 

If anybody feels like playing throw me an invite (gt: Skoogles) I'm still getting used to it so I may not do to well :L would love to play online with some bronies. I'm a Brit mind yous, so hours I'm online may be a bit whibbly if you're not from the UK.

Ouch, thats gotta hurt bad. Try to contact Treyarch about this, and hope that they'll fix this issue. I mean, they already fixed the issue where getting kicked out of a host migration would lead to probation, so maybe they'll fix this as well.

 

Thankfully, I haven't gotten anything like that.......yet. If I do, I'm gonna make damn sure that I tell Treyarch about that. But anyways, that sucks balls .

[Jokuc 8,173]

@,

How do I contact them?? I know before you could go to their support page and press on live chat or send message but now they have removed that and there's only supid FAQs everywhere :C

I dunno, try going on Treyarch's Twitter and contacting them there? Or just look up how other people may have contacted them....

 

Almost at a 3 K/D (Currently at a 2.9). I know, I know, K/D don't mean shit, but still, I like having a good K/D. Plus, for most people, it's harder to do well in Black Ops II, which is weird, since it's the CoD I've been doing the best in. It's a shame it comes at the loss of mah W/L and kinda low SPM, but still, I don't camp, I don't play like a douche, I don't use your usualy SMG setups (Nothing wrong with them, it's just that I prefer assault rifles much more). To me, taking it a bit more cautiously and strafing around some corners is mah game plan.

I had a bit similar problem like you.I was in the middle of my first prestige and then all of a sudden i was reset from level 55 to level 50 (i know it isn't much but god dammit it was annoying)+in zombies my emblem was reset from a knifed skull with blue eyes to a skull with no blue eyes.After that experience i stopped playing the game and i will probably not play it until summer(just because it is my last year of high school and i really need some good grades to get in a good college).
