Good! I'm sick and tired of getting spawn killed everytime, especially by a Chopper Gunner and a Gunship

dkgshiz5643d ago

That really doesn't matter then. No matter where you spawn the gun ship will kill you. Especially on Nuketown. Its really fucking cheap. I like how everyone forgets that you can shoot them down with RPGs, yet nobody ever does but me for some reason.

seinfan5643d ago

That sounds like a frustrating online experience. Not fun at all. I'm glad I didn't buy any CoDs after the first MW. That was a good game, but it got old for me. FPSs are not my type of games.

Sarevok5643d ago (Edited 5643d ago )

I try to shoot em down! but they always kill me before my LAW can lock on.

T9X695643d ago

I've noticed that as well, at least in the 360 version. In MW2 everyone shot everything down, but in Black Ops, it's like people think Rocket Launches don't exist. It's actually a good thing for me, because now I get to shoot everything down and rack up points :)

Boody-Bandit5643d ago (Edited 5643d ago )

I have two classes set to take down choppers. As soon as I hear one is incoming I switch to my class to take them down if I don't already have it set. Once I get killed the chopper gets taken out. Sometimes I run and gun hoping to get killed just so I can take it out.

What's is more frustrating is having morons for team mates that run around out in the open and get gunned down several tmes just trying to get some kills. If they would just wait it out and hold down their areas choppers would be obsolete except Noobtown and the jungle map.

DARK WITNESS5643d ago

ya, I don't have any trouble with choppers because the solution is simple enough, but it is amazing how many people just do nothing about them... even better, how many people just run around anyway.

If I can't take it out, I will take cover - it's the natural thing to do.

as for the spawns, ya get that fixed. Next up, bullet lag. Yes I know all games will have a bit of lag to some degree, but black ops is crazy.

then sort the guns out. most of them are ok but the burst weapons are now a little but underpowered compared to everything else. considering you can't really spray with them and you have to take your time and aim, the reward should be a little bit more.

after a game where I literally died before taking a step 12 times in a row! Every time I spawned right in front of an enemy's ironsights and after the 5th time I put the controller down & just watched to see how many times more it would happen.

Too bad I don't have a capture card I actually saved the match in my theater mode file share.

It made me feel like being raped with apricot scrub instead of lube! I call it Murphy's Law, if there's something f-up in the game, it will definitely happen to me!

My k/d ratio is horrible because of this and the lag I experience. Oddly enough, the training mode doesn't do this or lag at all, so that's what I end up playing most of the time.

I'm going to have to give this game back to Blockbuster next Tuesday, but I have a friend that's giving me a copy for free (He somehow got his hands on a few copies?). I was going to sell it but if they fix this & the lag, I might keep it.

dkgshiz5643d ago

I like how the bots dont have any recoil with there guns. They should of used the A.I. from KZ2 for these bots.

Trunkz5643d ago

I'm suck and tired of Treyarch saying their "on it" and nothing gets done for a long while..

im-12-years-old5643d ago

they just released a patch yesterday and why are you so mad about a game that just came out?

outlawlife5643d ago

apprently you don't pay attention to the treyarch forums either

literally 10s of changes have been made through live hot fixes

vhero5643d ago (Edited 5643d ago )

"Good! I'm sick and tired of getting spawn killed everytime, especially by a Chopper Gunner and a Gunship "

Here here decided to pop in in again last night killed 6 times in a row by spawning in the aim of a gunship.. So damn frustrating! Then when the gunship was finally taken out an enemy spawned behind me and took me out before I knew what hit me. It's a game breaker for me and if its not fixed soon I am trading in towards GT5.

Highlife5642d ago

Can't stand that there is no team work. You really should carry a rpg there is really no need for a second gun. You can always pick one up or have a class for it. Like the SAM use it and get lots of points. Love when the other team sends in their chopper just to have it shot down in seconds by the sams.

sak5005642d ago (Edited 5642d ago )

I have one kit especially for taking out aircrafts. So when i get killed by a gunship etc i swtich to that kit. It takes two quick fires of any of the aircraft lock weapons and it brings it down.

I also recnetly added killstreak of SAM instead of RC XD which is very effective against any aircraft. People however prefer getting killed by gunships and are only interested in RCXDs.

madara0sama5642d ago

The spawn in this game is even worst then mw2. At least I could shoot a choppergunner/etc down in mw2.

Surely the 50 articles per day about Black Ops bugs/wonder kill/any other pointless factoid is getting tedious now? How about some news on the PoP HD release today? Or AC Brotherhood? Not everyone plays COD day in day out ffs...

JeffGUNZ5643d ago (Edited 5643d ago )

Then why comment in these articles, just simply skip them. Also, this is news, it shows that a patch should be coming in soon so these cry babies who complain over everything can loosen up their panties and realize a patch is on the way.

iHEARTboobs5643d ago

It's not cry babies complaining over everything if it's actually a problem.

JeffGUNZ5642d ago (Edited 5642d ago )

The game is not "unplayable" and the spawn points are not game breaking. Annoying, yeah, I'll give you that, but I still run a 1.5 K/D ratio and finish top of game often. This generation of gamers are so inpatient it's pathetic. The game launched a little over a week ago, they already have one patch out and working on the spawn problems. Give them some time and it will all be great. Most of the examples people are posting are ludicrous. "I have been knifed 12 times in a row right after I spawned" No, you haven't, stop lying. If you are getting knifed 12 times in a row, then you suck and should stop blaming Treyarch for that. The 360 version is what I play and I never had ANY problems, glitches, issues, or anything that might have ruined the experience online.

iHeartboobs, take a look at the names man. The same people complaining like every little thing is groundbreaking are the same people who stated "I will never buy this rehashed crap!". All hyprocrites.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle3d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk773d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde9d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy10d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Relientk7711d ago

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga11d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit11d ago (Edited 11d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199210d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga10d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman10d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger10d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box11d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion10d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7211d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7511d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit11d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14911d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7711d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
