When a player is too blind to see you, and you proceed to knife him, you're a "noob" and if you dominate, you're a hacker and get banned.
I am so sick of this shit.

Personally I think mouse and keyboard is a superior way of input. They allow you to be as good as you can be. If you can move your crosshair 3 pixels down and 2 pixels left everytime you shoot in counterstrike to compensate for recoil, or make a perfect arc with your mouse to manage bridge-to-rail in quake 3, you can do it, theres no physical barrier which prevents you from doing it.

But with easier/better controls it's easier to do things that look hard for people who watch video's. Which was my original point. (Watching console players play is less impressive because the things that they do aren't as hard on pc)

This is so blatant on any "high skill" 360/ps3 black ops video. You can tell that they just move differently that on PC. When I'm on PC I totally abuse how fast I can aim and move and spam crouch and bunny hop and prone dives lol.
It's very true that black ops for PC has a much higher skill ceiling(i'm looking for it).
Either the average skilllevel is getting lower because of the holidays, or I'm finally becoming more consistent. my average kdr has risen almost a tenth to (1.45, still not high I know, but getting there) Which takes veeery long at prestige 7 (or 6, or 8 I kinda lost count, probably 7 though)

It's both lol. A bunch of noobs got the game for Christmas so they were on this past week lol. If you see people in the 5-30 rank range they probably got the game on Christmas.
I finally had the time to play both the console and the PC.
Xbox360 experience: GOD how do you kill/aim at people?? most of my death are from knifes! its so gay how they just hide in the corner and stab you in the back once that happens I GO EEHH in my MIC everytime but I did find in console that players don't wallbang at all even if they have hardened. thats my only advantage on them especially once its game winning kill and eye of the tiger some of the players in this game are just BLIND fight a rifle at them they wouldn't even know what hit them.
PC experience: I haven't played the PC since the first patch was release. OMG after my experience in Xbox360 I wanted to throw this game already but after playing couple of games and raging Kogu ^__^ it was a big relief! I just wanted to keep on playing.
SO IN CONCLUSION: Wanna get a kill in console wallbang them PC just do w/e you want its pretty simple with a mouse and keyboard.

I play on the 360, and what is "wallbang"? O_O, I know it has something to do with the perk hardened, 'cos you mentioned it. But I only ever use ghost pro, soh pro, ninja pro.

Wallbang is the term for killing people through walls, I believe.
Anyone else having trouble connecting to any of the BO servers? For PC? Whenever I try to join a game one of two happens... a. I get insta-booted from it and get the message "Server disconnected - Steam connect failed" b. I wait for hours in the loading screen and then get enter the game, it pormps me to choose a class, but I can see in the background "connection interrupted the animation of a cable being unplugged. Then after some time (everything is unresponsive, not able to acess the console, when i pick a class nothing happens) i get booted to the main menu with a message "Error/connection lost to host)
Or sometimes I can't even see the servers because when i click something that requires internet acess it tells me the black ops servers are down. and tell me to go check their website.
Before shelling out $90 for it, I decided to play it on my mate's steam account, and glad I did that, the game seems very stale. Action is very arcade like, I still cannot get used to the fact that when I sprint there is a 1-2 second delay when my character stops and I can actually aim my gun.
Almost everyone does the prone diving trick when they see you in their field of view .
I played BC2 and I have to say it is much more enjoyable than Black Ops but all time favorite would have to be CS, even to this day with all those constant new CODs popping out every single year, CS servers are still full of players
I'm playing it on the 360. I had been getting kind of tired of this game, but now that the new map pack is out, I'm kind of finding myself a bit addicted to it again. If any of you guys want to add me (I am 2nd prestige with an approximate 2.0 KDR) then you can add me on XBL at: yaoicatboymiyo
I used to love the CoD series. But now the game is just filled with little kids that talk trash all day when they themselves are terrible at a noob-friendly FPS. It's really disappointing.

idk what it is about the recent call of duties but they just don't have the same awesome feel as cod 2 and 4, might just be because i played the shit out of them but eh. the game is good just not groundbreaking.

I'd have to agree in a way, the first modern warfare was pretty groundbreaking in the entire CoD series, but every CoD game i've played after that just feels so tired and worn out.

I've recently gone back to Call of Duty 4 (hence why I've stopped updating the OP) and I'm having a fucking blast playing it. Most of the retarded shitty admins are gone so I'm not getting kicked for "cheating/hacking" every 30 seconds and most of the hackers I run into are incredibly blatant and yet still insanely terrible so I don't mind it at all.
Black Ops is okay, but there's not enough good maps, the balance is boring and the game is still reasonably buggy. Enough to keep me uninterested.

They played two sides on that map and the previous score was in favor of the winning team.
This is what happens when you have fixed spawns on Call of Duty:
501-8
At one point in the video (2:15) he just stops moving around in the Chopper Gunner. He just sits there and shoots his main gun in one single spot and gets like 15 kills in a matter of seconds. Then he goes there, and crouches in a spot and keeps knifing people who spawn directly in front of him.
I come to you with a question and I didn´t want to open a new topic for that. Assuming they fixed the pc lag problems they had in the beginning: How good is Cod:BlOps?(for pc)
I played both CoD4:MW and CoD:MW2 and I found CoD4 to be far better. Better maps, less problems to get playing with friends(I am still angry at the "IWnet" matchmaking bullshit from Modern Warfare 2) and no akimbo weapon imbalance bullshit.
For CoD:BlOps I know they had not tested the game for pc and had large problem at launch. I also know of the fixed spawn points problem, which to my knowledge only affects certain game modes. I´ve also seen some of the maps (watching my friend playing it on console) and they (the maps) looked quite good. Since pc version should have servers you should be able to pick your maps reasonably well.
So my question is how good Black ops(PC) is compared to the Modern Warfare titles: as bad as MW2 or as good as MW1?
