So is the game still really buggy online?

Really interested in buying this but all the bad post in this thread make me wanna wait till its patched, i read that there was a patch that fixed some of the stuff.

But is it still pretty much unplayable?

Can someone confirm this?


The game is extremly broken for about 80% of the people on pc (mass stuttering , or image spikes, whatever you'd like to call it).
For some people it runs smoothly ( me not being one of them sadly ) , wether it being people with really high end computers or 1/2 year old rigs.
The problem is on the coding of the game, people with extremly high end cpu's are having 100% usage in game, this is ridiculous for a game that runs on the Quake 3 engine, it shouldnt be even using 60% of these high end cpus.
For me , its actually playable with some stuttering more or less heavy depending on the map im playing (mode,people in the server) , but for some people ( even those with extremly high end pcs) , the game just freezes every 3/4 secs for one or two seconds.
Its impossible for us to tell you if its going to be playable for you because its basically the fucking lottery, really.
A patch is expected this week or the next, there is alot of whining on both the steam forums and the cod forums, you wouldnt believe the things i've seen lol.


So you think in the up coming patch it will be fixed?


I think so.If they dont fix it many people will unninstall the game.
Never Regret anything because at one time it was exactly what you wanted.

Of course, these aren't the first whispers we've heard of the FPS series heading to the stars. Earlier this year Activision registered domains for "Call of Duty: Future Warfare, Advanced Warfare, Secret Warfare and Space Warfare".


Space Ops. Duhh.
Isn't it ironic and selfish to say that God made man in his image, when God was made in man's image?

I can't believe there is a bug in the first 4 minutes of play. Thats such a fail. Anyhow if anyone has problem with the courtyard scene when the VCR pops out and the game accuses you of being incompetent gamer (OMGZ NOESSSSS) that caused his team mates to be killed, just restart the game, and start a NEW game. Thats the only way i managed to circumvent this glitch.
I love humanity. It is people that i can't stand.

Completely unplayable for me. Runs MW and MW2 perfectly, and Bad Company 2 runs fine on low graphics but this won't even run without either lagging to hell or crashing online. How dissapointing. Will have to figure something out from this thread or some other online source or just say fuck it for now.

I read somewhere to close the steam process for those of you who cant play single player without the freezing.
I could get a more coherent article by gluing a Sharpie to a dog's cook and letting it hump the page.

Best CoD game I've played so far and I'm not fan of such fiction or modern shooters.

The story is quite fun if you can close your eyes on absurdity of it

Presentation, flow and smart use of effects is what makes the game cool.

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.


Well, you don't even kill Fidel. And secondly, it's based off something that actually happened. They may as well burn all the history books as well.


ehh no it didnt happen. Fidel does have over 400 assessination attempts but the Black Ops history is entirely fictional, the confindential nature of the cold war era made it possible for the producers to make an entirely fictional history, i do not want to take sides, but it is not funny when one (if not the) of the most played games in the world has in the very first mission an assessination attempt on a still alive leader, not only that, but you are killing Cuban troops and they are seen as "the bad guys" very bad guys actually, and guess who are the heroes?, cuba aint no Soviet Union, they are still here and please, they are no way near north Korea in dictatorship, so their concerne is well argumented.



meh, I'd never be offended by this. I'm not offended when you have to shoot nazis in some WW2 game. Unless you're really freaking retarded, you're never going to make a connection between the guys you shoot in the game and the real guys in the real world. Just because you shot nazis in WW2 games it doesn't make you think that Germany is still nazi-land. And if it does, you're an idiot anyways and nobody should be offended by your stupidity.

I think youre freaking retarded for making a conection betwen the nazis and the actual germany, there are so many wrong things in that argument i dont even know where to start.

Its not the same something that happened in global conflict over 50 years ago than the cold war where a Black Op (you do know what a black op is do you?) was to kill the leader of a country and on top of that, make them look like the bad side of the conflict to justify the agression.
Almost nothing has changed in Cuba since the cold war era, Fidel is still the leader (although not "president") of Cuba and such a bad propaganda is not justified, so stfu and do not talk about something you do not know about, even today, a lot of people dont even know who Fidel Castro is, after the CoD, do you know what will they say? Oh yea, the son of a bitch dictator that uses a girl as human shield, is that neccesary? the man aint dead yet LOL wtf

if i recall correctly, A LOT OF COUNTRYS have done worst (even banning the game) for minors offenses than this, Russia had some plces where MW2 was Banned beacuse of the mission of the airport (shit, you only kill russians civilians, in bo you kill the militia that was defending the country from an open atack from the cia), other middle east country i dont recall banned the game entirely, The US banned MoH in military bases because in multiplayer you could choose the taliban side, What the fuck. And germany........oh Germany, that is the country the censors the most games ive ever seen, just google Germany bans x Game and youll see, here, let me do it for you:
http://www.google.com.cu/search?q=germany bans call of duty&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a

There you go. Cuba IS NOT FUCKING BANING ANYTHING, they are just insulted, which is normal for them to be, fuck, your country does A LOT OF SHIT OVER NOTHING, and you have the balls to say that about mine because THEY ONLY COMPLAIN? Fuck you sir.

It reminds me of the "taliban" controversy with MOH which was mind numbingly silly imo. However, I do agree that the game seems to portray Castro and Cubans with a typical negative and erroneous American Cold Warrior attitude. Lol. Just try to picture it as really bad propaganda and nothing personal.

There has been so much controversy over video games lol, besides i didnt wanna make a big deal out of it, but just talk about the reaction of some cuban gamers and media, i dont really care about that lol


The dude in the game was a body double. As in, instead of being Castro, he was Not Castro. Why concern yourself with the falsely drawn conclusions of ignorant people?

For those of you suffering from severe lag in single player you can try doing this:

Go to your steam folder - steam/steamapps/common/call of duty black ops/players/ and edit the config.cfg file.

Find multiGpu and change the value to 0, if you only have one GPU.

Next to that is multithreaded_device, change that value to 1.

My game still lags but not as bad as it was before, somewhat playable now. Hope it helps.

Good thing I'm buying it on Xbox 360 where there isn't insane lag (unless you play splitscreen over Live which worked pretty badly when I tried).

Been trying for hours to make it work. The best I can do is it joins the actual server 50% of the time, but in 2 minutes it kicks me out.
