Call of Duty: Black Ops

single player is good, multiplayer is consistently laggy and buggy.

With the last patch for the PC version the cut scenes no longer stutter, still waiting on the next patch so the 3-5 second freezing while in game stops.

Hey PC gamers:

We are listening to you and we’ve been busy working on updates based on feedback from the community. We have already deployed a number of updates, and there will be many more to come. Stay tuned right here for all the latest info.

LIVE FIXES
11/10
- GameServers.com has bumped sv_maxrate to 25000 across all servers to reduce lag.
- GameServers.com continues to improve official server distribution in various worldwide regions.

11/11- Friends fix for join in progress and Friends tab in server browser.
- Performance improvement for dual and quad core.
- Improved connectivity with Black Ops Rcon tool.

IN PROGRESS
- GPU hitching on certain graphics cards.
- Incomplete server browser results.
- Improvements to Quickmatch joins (results with better ping and reduced lag).
- Zombies "The game session is no longer available" error.

Once that is fixed I'll be happy, no reason I should have any freezing with this GPU (GTX 460), a quad core Phenom II and 2GB of RAM.

even if they patch it, it still doesn't have the same options console users have, if we play with friends they are all scattered across the board, we normally end up playing against them. Also we cant vote maps like you can on console. It's a totally different experience from console to pc and that's sad.

I set my expectations too high on the graphics side. I expected a much improved MW2 type of rendering. Seems like they took a few steps back in this department and have been saved by the fact that the game features (customizations etc) make it more enjoyable than MW2 (in that respect).

Also, I'm totally in love with Wager Matches. It is such an adrenaline rush when you put your money on the line and go into a match (One in the Chamber!!). The higher the buy in....the more of a rush.

I completely agree with your post. Wager matches are the best cause they actually make me nervous. Put 10k on the line and have fun

Decided to play with the video editor. Its pretty cool. Here's an upload from "one in the chamber" wager match I played last night.

I am completely addicted, as I suspected I would be.

But the bogus guns piss me off. There are so many weapons in the game that did not exist back then. It would have been so much more enjoyable if they did their research and just included real weapon systems from that time frame instead of including things invented many, many years later.

looks like the graphic are slightly better than DOOM on windows 95

Thats just because it loses a LOT of the detail when you upload to youtube.

I love playing the COD games on PS3, especially online because I'm either good, or like to mess with people on my team

Used to play MW2 online all the time, but the baby came and my PS3 got the YLOD and died, I haven't had the time or ambition to get another one.... yet.

Zombie mode is AWESOME!!!! I haven't even touched the campaign yet lol....

I like the upgrade and customization capability of the new multiplayer game, and the fact that it hasn't been hacked yet. The campaign story could be better.

My peeve is that when the M14 or FAL are suppressed it takes three shots to the chest to kill. The M16 seems more powerful than the M14 or FAL, which is due to the three round burst and the same three shots to kill.

The 1st player rocked my socks. I felt in the game and in some screaming action 90% of the game.. compared to most games where you are only mesmerized for like 50% of the game. Seriously there always seemed to be some crazy shyt happening. Whether it be flying a helicopter.. wielding a machine gun mowing people down.. jumping roofs or trains..etc. Beat the game in 2 sessions.

Have not played multiplayer yet.
