Hopefullt this fix the freezing and disconnects

*edit*

after doing some investigation this patch does not fix the freezing *sighs*

cakeisalie5545d ago

Yet people will still buy the next COD in hordes, just sad.

hamburger1235545d ago

Whats more sad is that people have a console just for the COD games

Best5545d ago

Regardless of these issues you guys can't deny that Call of Duty is a fun game that is awesome to play in your free time. You guys talk about call of duty like its horrible... its still fun.

Rainstorm815545d ago

it may be fun but most other games would get dragged through the mud, if they had the types of issues COD does.

COD is the new Madden.....people will buy it in droves no matter the problems. But like madden the truth will unfold eventually and people will tire of the same issues every year, but how many years will it take?

reynod5545d ago

@Raiinstorm

Its the first Console gen where people can go online and play against each other, which has created alot of buzz in the Console community. I would give it a few more releases at best before people start tiring out from the repeated rehashes and the sales start dipping.

aceitman5545d ago

havent had a chance to play it long enough without having issues to know if its fun ..

huzzaahh5545d ago

@reynod

You could actually play online against other people on the Xbox and the PS2. I'm assuming this generation of consoles is your first, otherwise you'd know that.

bodybombs5545d ago (Edited 5545d ago )

shit the dreamcast even let you go online and play other people

rockleex5545d ago

I did not buy Black Ops. Yay for me! ^_^

TheLastGuardian5545d ago

The people who buy COD every year no matter what think COD is the greatest game ever because they don't play enough real games.

ReservoirDog3165544d ago

I hated mw2 but I do like black ops, but well said.

I truly don't get a lot of the problems a lot of people here complain about when I play but still. That is true.

@Raiinstorm81

I totally disagree. Halo 3, Gears Of War (2 at least), Warhawk, MAG, Street Fighter IV, Killzone 2, BattleField series etc just to name a few. Every single game with a popular online mode has issues. Some more severe than others but overall they're largely the same or similar and none of these games got "dragged through the mud".

Whats even sadder is people crying about a game they seemingly care little about.
Go away and play whatever game it is other than COD and leave the rest of us in peace.

HolyOrangeCows5545d ago (Edited 5545d ago )

Does host migration work more than 0.000001% of the time now?

"Whats even sadder is people crying about a game they seemingly care little about"
How could a gamer NOT care that the most popular current franchise in gaming is so screwed up?

"LOL PS3 cod has as many patches GT5"
Updates are considered bad to you trolls now? What's next, is releasing games considered a "pathetic and desperate attempt" to get people to buy game consoles? lol

Ducky5545d ago

I used to like updates...
... until MannCo happened. =/

the freezing issue will be fixed just before Black Ops 2 release...

DoomeDx5545d ago

Yeah, but the GT5 Patches make the game even better.

Anyways, time for me to upgrade from Black Ops, to CoD4!

GodofSackboy5545d ago

Saw a comment within your xbox fanboy comment history saying that Wipeout HD is not in 1080p at 60fps. Well, it is. I know, I'm sorry if your crappy, unreliable American console can't handle it, but it's the truth. That's what that game was made for. To show the power of TEH CELL.

Blacktric5545d ago

"I'm sorry if your crappy, unreliable American console can't handle it"

Unnecessary.

Blacktric5545d ago (Edited 5545d ago )

Just because some troll said a retarded thing about a PS3 game, doesn't make calling the Xbox 360 "crappy and unreliable" necessary. If he wants to attack him, he should attack him and him only, not the console he supports or its whole fanbase. Oh but whatever. He joined 10 days ago so I guess it's just a troll thingy.

Dnied5545d ago

as much as I enjoy some of the xbox exclusives, there's no denying its a crappy and unreliable console lol this shouldn't be something worth arguing over so why not just let it go

What u call patches on GT5 i will call extra contend or bonuses TROLLl!.... there no fixing anything there is nothing to fix ( well maybe the dog on madrid or the bottom of a particular car...lol) there just adding more staff 4 free... you haven't hear that word in a while!.
BTW.... the issues they just address are the ones i notice the most.... i really hope it gets fix!

Death24945545d ago

I think Geometry Wars ran at 1080p, not quite sure though. I keep wanting anyone to tell me a "polygon heavy" 1080p xbox360 game. Plz don't throw Crysis2 in there because it's only 720p and it doesn't utilize 4xMLAA.

[ For those who don't know what that means. MLAA is equivalent of 16xMSAA. The 360 taps out at 4xMSAA. The AMD 6000 series cards are just now getting MLAA. You guys can thank Santa Monica Studios.]
I mean they couldn't even do Halo: Reach justice and run it at 720p. COD never ran at 720p.

ian725545d ago (Edited 5545d ago )

I thought Pandemic was the first to use MLAA on Saboteur not Santa Monica.
I could be wrong though.

Death24945545d ago

Thanks Ian732, you're right. Sorry for the slight misinformation. I love how i have all these disagrees, yet not one person is naming at "shader heavy" 1080p title for the 360. Can someone tell why they couldn't even get Halo: Reach to run at 720p?

Death24945544d ago

@ Droidanomix,
Thanks for allowing everyone to see your level of maturity. You might want to spend a little more time looking up that "shader heavy" 1080p 360 game, instead of wasting your time with childish comments. Forza does 8 cars at 720p. Gran Turismo 5 does 16 premium cars at 1080p. Gears of War 3 looks damn good, and I'm more of a Project Gotham fan than Forza. If anyone can name a "shader heavy" 1080p title on 360, i'll retract all my claims made against the 360.

Hope that my PS3 won't freeze anymore, when i m the host.

hamburger1235545d ago

they didnt fix it in this update...

KingLizzle5545d ago

It doesn't resolve the hard freezes as they haven't been able to reproduce those problems so far. It does make a huge improvement to the party system and matchmaking, especially for those on moderate NAT. Check out the alternate source above where I've gone through the actual changes the patch makes in a 'real world' scenario.

AllroundGamer5545d ago

they haven't been able to reproduce those problems, because they don't really have any PS3s to test it, they just guess it's fixed and release a patch :D

KingLizzle5545d ago

@AllroundGamer They do, however, work with members of the PS3 community to test patches and try to reproduce problems. I'm part of a small group of PS3 users who have been playing with David Vonderhaar (the guy in charge of multiplayer at Treyarch)for a few weeks trying to isolate some of the issues.

r2kcipher5545d ago

Tell him he fails hard and should be fired

HungPHATx5545d ago

Screw that ! You can keep that garbage Activision/Treyarch/Microsoft ! I stat with BFBC2 Vietnam

BeaArthur5545d ago

I'm glad that they continue to work to make it a better game but this game has been out for a month and it's still experiencing issues that most games don't have when they hit shelves.

The getaway
Smugglers run
Dead to rights
Worlds scariest police chases
Sure I’m missing a few.

FPS_D3TH380d ago

Mannn… worlds scaries police chases… that took me back lol

Knushwood Butt380d ago

Ape Escape.
Fun game but, wow, you need a college degree to understand the controls.
A remaster would also save you from having to constantly fight the camera.
Keep the music though. Those drum and bass tracks fit really well and haven't aged. Made me think that more games could work well with drum and bass tracks, but unfortunately it's a somewhat niche genre now.

Abear21380d ago

Max Payne Series
Infamous 1 & 2
NBA Street Vol 2
SSX
Skate

M_Prime380d ago

i could have sworn i read somewhere that Remedy is remaking May Payne 1 but things have been quiet lately

YourMommySpoils379d ago

They are making the first one, as we speak.

jznrpg380d ago (Edited 380d ago )

One of the few Xbox games I own. I have 3 copies of it because of the many discs it has, for just in case reasons

jznrpg380d ago (Edited 380d ago )

Xenogears, Xenosaga trilogy, Vagrant Story, Drakengards, Parasite Eve and many more but I’ll start with those

Black ops 4, because it was the last cod of duty I was able to dominate with a +2 k/d ratio. Before all the freaking cheating started to happen. It was nice catching people off guard and shooting at them first and getting the kill. Unlike now, where I shoot people first, but they gun me down with less hits, less time, literally feels like they can kill me in a split second. At times, they are able to run away after me shooting them way more than necessary, yet, the second I'm spotted, I'm dead, there's no me running away to cover. They can do cartwheels, summersaults, backflips and gun you down perfectly. They can shoot you across the map with perfect accuracy. They can jump around like morons and gun you down without even having to correct their aim. They have superman split second perfect reactions. That's the best way to describe it, everything they do is spot on perfect. They can spam and spray (no praying) their gun from far away, because they have no recoil or bullet spread. It always feels like I have to aim and also correct my aim when moving around, while these pricks don't have to do the same.

And yes, I know how to play fps games. I dominated many fps games like: Resistance 1&2, kz 2&3, Socom, MAG, Crysis, Gotham City Impostors, blitz brigade etc. all with 2-4 k/d ratio. Kz2 (lag input controls) and resistance (no aim assist in resistance) being the hardest and were the games I reached either close to a 3 k/d ratio or above.

I truly got to enjoy blacks ops 4 and got my money's worth out of it. Afterwords, I would either stop playing cod games after a while, because of the cheating, or would skip buying cod games for a year or two before buying another.
