Game plays flawlessly without any lag. There was ONE stutter during the 5 hour campaign and that was it. There is network lag, but it's been getting better. Should be cleared up by tomorrow.
I'm kind of surprised that the PC graphics are, art-wise, very slightly different from the console versions in some areas. It's not huge and not even noticeable unless you try to look for it, but even slight changes show that they didn't just do a straight port to PC.
I think you guys are blowing this out of proportion.
All games have their issues. StarCraft 2 had that issue where the menus would max out your videocard. Problems like this can be fixed with a day zero patch.
I remember playing with 200 ping... when I had 56k.
Looks like a pretty solid server browser. Everything is placed neatly and is easy to read and there are a decent number of options. There are some server browsers out there that are just a mess. The functionality may be there, but it just looks like a mess--ugly and hard to read.
I don't see how it's tired if a big-budget game with that style of gameplay hasn't been done in 10 years.
At least that requires some thinking unlike running around mashing buttons.
No, it's saying that a claymore that has been placed can be picked up again and placed elsewhere.
It wouldn't make sense to be able to pick up a claymore that has exploded into a million pieces, magically reassemble it in an instant, and place it again.
Racing simulation on the PC is a popular genre. There are a lot of guys who are willing to shell out thousands of triple-monitor setups and crazy racing wheels and accessories; just take a look at the racing forums for proof of this.
On the PS3, Gran Turismo is like the only racing simulator worth talking about, but on the PC there are several games such as iRacing, rFactor, and the SimBin games. These games don't focus much on the graphics, though; they're all about ...
Quake Live, Fallen Empire: Legions, Soldier Front, Combat Arms, AVA, GunZ, America's Army, Alien Swarm, F.E.A.R. Combat, Savage 2, Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, CrimeCraft, WarRock, etc., etc., etc.,
Plenty of free shooters out there.
The PC version files may be leaked, but you won't be able to find a crack until the game has been released. As far as I know, Black Ops will be using Steam worldwide in all regions, so you won't be able to find the required game files until release day. The crackers will get to work quickly on the game and will probably have a crack out a day at most after the release of the game, but they won't be able to make one before the game has been released.
So any "c...
That's because they were released in numerous regions, and some regions don't use Steam as DRM.
Cracking a game on Steam is no problem, but it isn't possible to crack a game using Steam BEFORE it is released.
Black Ops uses Steam for DRM so pre-release piracy is impossible. What Steam does is it downloads essential files required to play the game when you install it; the game files on the disc are missing those essential files.
Age of Conan didn't fail.
But assassinations are only if you melee somebody from the back.
I'm pretty sure he talks that way because of a mental illness, not because he lacks social skills.
Mann Manor is an AWESOME map. Love the mini-boss thing that pops up every now and then.
This is an indie game with a relatively low budget (low hundred thousands compared to the multi-million AAA games) and the only advertising it had was word of mouth. Even though 36,000 sales seems low, they were able to recoup their development costs and fund their next game... but you'd know that if you read the article.
The article says that they are happy with that.
What I liked about Crysis's multiplayer is that it was like Battlefield but with nanosuits. It looks like they're trying to go for the Call of Duty audience with Crysis 2 which is a bit disappointing.
