A week today it comes out, im going to be really sad a get it at 1am from tescos like i did mw2 last year :smt070
My boys wanted a "modded controller" - I have managed to persuade them to have black ops and a few points to buy goodies with when it comes out instead!

ive been put off by infiniti not doing this one, hope its better than cod 5.
I will get it but some places are selling between £50 and £60, its not worth that much to me.
Dunno why, dont feel as excited about this one as i did about MW2.

^different dev's through but saying that i liked cod5 a lot
I was at Asda at midnight for the last two as they normally sell it for £25 for the frat couple of hours.
Doubt I will get this one though as I never have time to even get the xbox out now, and if I do find a second of spare time Kerry would go nuts if I spent it playing cod instead of her. Plus cod 5 was rubbish by treyarch, to clunky. It's also developed to far with the rubbish money system and unrealistic perks.
Cod4 and 6 were spot on for current day, future technology games I get bored of quickly.

Looking forward to it, got it pre ordered from amazon months ago. Whats got me worried is the amount of hack reports about the game already. I do hope it doesnt end up like mw2.

Brother got Dead Rising 2, and he is looking to trade it in for black ops also.
I myself shall my trading in Fable 3. Loved the first two, but this third one really isn't worth it.

nope becuase you cannot stealth patch a game until its been released,
As it doesn't have the verified security sectors to compare it too.
so if you play before verifying the stealth status if it has some missing Security sectors even off-line play it still logs a flag on the nand on the board to say the game isnt legit so when they roll out the ban hammer the console will get banned.

Not really bothered any more. You get all excited because it's new, play through the campaign in five hours and say WTF so go to the multiplayer and it's just more of the same crap.
Two guys were gonna go get it at midnight from work, dunno if they did, if they happened to grab me a copy I wouldn't say no to it but otherwise really not interested.
Dead Rising 2 is great btw, if you are only playing it for the first 25 mins (which is almost all cutscenes) you're missing the point.

ha Lily dont let him have it til he has done "chores" ..
got mine
well mand did at midnight when I was in bed .. me not allowed it til crimbo..
then I wont be allowed to play it .. cos its crimbo !.
women..
I was at the local ASDA with 100+ other people picking it up for £23 for the last two games that came out.
I sadly get addicted to it and neglect Kerry and my general chores. I also value my eyes and spent a fair bit getting them perfect again and I don't want to mess them up playing games hours on end. As tempting as it is now winter has rolled in, I'm not bothering this time.
I have it :) sitting next to me on my desk at work.
I know what my plans for the next few weeks are....

When ever its not infiniti doing the game, i find the menus etc messy and seem awkward and overly complicated.
I prefer the menu system on mw2, dead simple.
2nd online dm and came top in firing range, result :) so ive peaked now ;)
The games good, but it aint no MW2 .

Couldn't agree more.
Also changing the way you get guns from ranking up, to purchasing is a BIG mistake in my opinion.
Everything just seems a big mess. I'm not that impressed to be honest and neither are a lot of my friends I've spoken to.
Another Treyarch attempt, another COD not quite to hit the mark.
Surely after them doing world at war and now black ops, with both missing the mark, they shouldn't be allowed to do another in the future. Infinity ward all the way!

Whereas having to get 20 kills with red dot/acog/grenade launcher in order to unlock the attachment you really want is a LOT better... :rolleyes:
It made you play the game and feel like you'd achieved something, rather than just bought it. So yes, it is a LOT better.
metalangel
10-11-10, 03:01 PM
I dunno, I'd get the same feeling of achievement from earning the money and finally getting the new gun I'd been saving up for.
And I'd be a lot happier that I hadn't had to waste several games trying to score kills with an ACOG or whatever just to get the attachment I actually wanted.
*shrugs*
Diff'rent strokes, for diff'rent folks
I've played for a couple of hours and i basically have the perfect setup for me already. it's upsetting.

I have started sorting a few out. the £££ dont last long :(
I prefer everything about MW, but this is the 1st COD that i like from the Treyarch. the maps are quite large with loads of places to hide in ;)
I literally use one class :)
Drew Carey
10-11-10, 03:23 PM
I use 3. One Submachine, one assault and one sniper rifle.
metalangel
10-11-10, 03:25 PM
I'm a heretic, but my favourite Call of Duty is 3 (by those awful designers at Treyarch). The singleplayer was meh but the multiplayer was fan-dabby-doozy.
andrewsmith
10-11-10, 03:25 PM
I have 5 classes and try to max every gun out
uuber nerd or wot :p
SMG for moi normally :D
I'm terrible at range as I have such bad aim. I just run round quickly shooting people in the face at close range :)
Dunno, didn't seem to think they'd ever be able to top MW2, or even match it. Tbf I've not played it yet, but reviews here and elsewhere has made me think twice. Money will be better used up on Mafia2 me thinks.

its far better than mw2. no/ one man army noob tubes,commando,FFA boosters,danger close. this is a lot harder to play, the newbies and players who just ran around commandoing players are going to struggle at this game. the theatre mode is cool i can watch any of my friends game play any time even if i wasnt in that game.

Games good, but the menus, smoothness and network are rubbish, nightmare if you want friends to join your games, keeps kicking them off, the mics tonight were only letting some people hear and not others in the same friends lobby.
You cant mute tw4ts in the lobby, have to wait for the game to start to do it.
Terrible lag tonight also.
The join session feature was much better / easier on MW2, if the lobby was full the join session wouldnt show up so you wouldnt waste your time, this one dont, it spends 30 seconds trying to get you in and then tells you the lobby is full :evil:
So far not impressed at all, not a long termer this, unless updates sorts the problems out.

Yep it was the same on xbox last nite, i was find it hard to join a private game. Also Reeder sent me an invite, i join at all. Tho it was sayiun i could join :smt092
the same sort of probs for all the COD game when new. when the bugs get sorted out it will be awesome.
Mine is literally being crap.
I cannot get in any games unless I choose to join a friend!! I've tried resetting my router numerous times and checked my ip settings and stuff on my xbox, but no good. Probably the reason you couldn't join into moi last night Rob. I seem to be able to join other people in their lobby and for them to search for a game however. It's totally ****ing me off because if there's no one in a game, or they're all full, I can't play.

Apologies to anyone that was trying to add me last night (Amanda a few times and Phil's mate Ian), but because of the network issues its pants having games with friends, so just sticking to Mercenary Deathmatch until the issues are sorted.
Last night though I got the portable minigun from a crate.......hillarious. 400 rounds, no need to reload and no recoil.....totally unrealistic but a laugh. I had 19 kills and 1 death.

Not as bad, the menus and simplicity were better straight from the off, admittedly the network issues were still there, but the game was much more polished.
Im not the only one not that impressed.
I cant see why they have to keep changing the basics when they know they already work.

because "they" are a different company making the game. so they are more than likely not allowed to reuse the design
I'm starting to like it... the famas is a good gun. It was rubbish in MW2 as it only had short bursts but in BlackOps its automatic.
Best gun I've found so far anyway.
Naaaaah, I love the little skorpian (I think its called that?) POO range, but up close you kill everyone :)
