There were a few maps where I literally spawned and was shot in my back atleast 10 times in a match. Also its been taking more shots to kill someone than MW2. I know it isnt MW2, but I thought it would be atleast similar and realistic. But there are some pretty awesome things about the game, like buying weapons, and gaining points from completing the challenges. A lot of cool features, I just think they need to fix the spawns, and possibly the shooting problem.
Anyway if anyone wants to play add IntoTheBush lol wut? That is definitely not a problem, that is so much better. If they actually went back to CoD2/CoD4 style I will love this game; MW2 was probably the most horrible game I've ever played, being good at it was determined more by ping and who's host vs actual skill (also by abusing OP bullshit, and stupid killstreaks, etc). Barebones mode sounds awesome, will it be available on console?

Yeah, Barebones is on the console. You have to be level 16 to play it though.
And removing Stopping Power is one of the best things that they could have done to the game, IMO.
Edit: Zombies is so epic in this game.

I cant play multiplayer Im going to buy the game right now So i will talk about other thing that may not seem interesting but still. Holy shit with the game and the cuban media (internet blogs mainly)
The game has been criticized nonstop because of the missions in Cuba. Today in my university (i study laws 3rd year) a lot of ppl were talking about it, some papers are "insulted", even blaiming the US for trying to achieve in a game what they didnt in fifty years, theyre saying a lot of negatives things about COD, the usual, is a game that induces violence but others are just plain ridiculous, some people here took the game seriously, more info and sources later, let me play the game.
The killing Fidel Castro Mission has been taken in a very negative way.

Twice now I've had my ping shoot up through the roof while playing a match. Like, it becomes unplayable so I check vent and see that my ping there has gone up. If I leave the match, it goes back to normal. First time it started at 3k and climbed up to 30k before I left. This time it was around 2k and I didn't give it more than 30 seconds. Not sure what it's doing but it's irritating. The same thing started happening in the past couple weeks with MW2 at the menu (basically as if it was constantly updating playlists like it does when you first go into multiplayer).
Also, for anyone that doesn't know and is interesting, here's a website that has the gun damage amounts listed. Pretty standard numbers, but without the stopping power multiplier there's less of a difference. http://denkirson.xanga.com/735016527/black-ops/
And yeah, it's very intentional that it takes a few more bullets to kill people compared to MW2.

is it just the part where she still stays loyal to castro after he uses her as a human shield, then the soldiers make some comment about that's how things are down here?
it seemed pretty much like game stuff, nothing serious... didn't they see MW2?

Ugh keep this crap out of this thread, please. Besides it's not for my sake I'm telling you to read a page or two before you post. It's common sense and helps other people as well.

to answer your question, i have not on my side (PC platform). The game itself is running smooth as butter. i'll give you my specs
4870x2 running catalyst 10.8 qx9450 OC to 4.0 ghz 8 gb mushking DDR2
using cg_drawfps 1 i'm getting 57 FPS in the multiplayer. As for ping, i average about 50-80. pretty consistent. i get occasional lag spikes, like once a game where it kinda freezes for half a second.

With the lag, it's very effective to sprint towards people, then hip-spray them down with SMGs. Quite depressing.
Sometimes i think PC is a bit fast paced - you want to be able to enjoy a game laid back as well, not be adrenaline pumped with tense shoulders EVERY second of the game. The vehicles served this purpose in BF:BC2.

Yes, it's insane. I've stopped playing until it gets fixed.

Thanks for the tips. I'll try them later today and report if they've made a difference. I doubt it though, as I think the problem relies with the game putting everything on your CPU and not straining your GPU at all. It's just something that Treyarch will hopefully fix with a patch and there's not much we can do.
Aside from all that, the game is pretty fun overall. I thought the RC car would be overpowered as hell but they're really easy to shoot down and you can hear them coming from a mile away. AK74 with grip is amazing and is currently my favorite gun to use. I've heard people say the Galil is overpowered, I'll check it out and post my thoughts.

that's pretty much what you do on this forum, if you don't like it...
anyway i'm having loooooads of fun with this game on 360 so far, the hit detection is a little dissapointing at times tho (altho it's better cause it's more realistic, i swear the bullets were 5 inches wide or sth in mw2).

Thought you guys might be interested in this tweet from itmeJP:
itmeJP JP McDaniel Buy Black Ops? Want a good 25000 Max Rate Server? Look for Beer for Breakfast Texas Black Ops -- Dallas Hosted, SotG people will play here
I'll be checking it out in an hour or so when I get home from work. Might be a good start as a "go to" server for TL peeps.

ugh, I can't wait until they release the patch so I can stop stuttering. The sad thing is that I'm actually getting used to it and can usually still pull ahead due to claymores giving me free kills. The game is really fun, just needs patch badly.
