From what I have experienced, moving is not enough you have to be in a full sprint.

Blops 2 i love already- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xyxw_2LSFXI&feature=related

Damn that's hot.

 

[KillerTravis]

As if anyone anymore TRULY snipes. Its all running and gunning quick scoping.

I would really like to know how to quick scope, I've tried several times and failed miserably.

You should at least be able to walk and stay hidden, I usually walk around corners so I don't need to wait to fire.

Has anyone preordered digital steam games from Amazon before? I preordered the deluxe version from Amazon since I had $20 off. Am I not gonna get the steam key until release and be unable to preload ?

Amazon just charged my card a few minutes ago and I got my key. Preloading it now.

 

[Liferebooted]

Oh wow, didn't know they were releasing keys today. Amazon just emailed me less than a minute ago saying the game is released and to log in for my key.

 

[Makoto]

GameFly as well just handed out the keys.

 

[Nabs]

edit: look like I was a bit late. ha.

 

[.nimrod]

The pc version is kinda huge: scratch that, the actual downloads add up to about 14GB

Nuketown also seems to be bound to the cd key:

 

[Dead Prince]

If you pre-ordered the PC version through Amazon, they have keys available now. Just go to your game library and click the button under the game.

edit: look like I was a bit late. ha.

thanks baby. preloading now. EDIT: wait. i bought the Disc version just to get $20 off fml.

 

[Liferebooted]

I had the deluxe version so I just got WAW unlocked.. 32gb for everything to download.

I wish Steam stopped this kind of stuff, I don't want separate executables for all three modes clustering up my Steam list.

 

[Badgerst3]

Will redbox 360 version include mp? Wanna try mp before full buy. Have not played a cod game since mw2.

Is the game even on 2 discs?

 

[Liferebooted]

Hm, My digital deluxe version is preloading and downloading WAW but it doesn't say anything about nuketown even though Amazon said I'd get it...

 

[Garrett 2U]

I'm really curious to see the reception of this game.
The community seemed to be split about Black Ops, and even moreso over MW3.
I'm not buying in this time until I see people still happy with it a month later.

yeah, most people who snipe are quick scoping.If you're not quickscoping, just stick close to your teammates and let them protect your flanks, or use their deaths to alert you to people near, and don't stay scoped in all of the time.

There will never be a consensus.

 

[sephi22]

This is going to be my first COD. Did I choose the right one to jump in?
Also, how long before I don't get absolutely destroyed in MP? I don't mean win matches, I mean not get shot by someone I can't even see. My friends have played all 5 of the previous CODs, this is my first one.

 

[TacticalFox88]

COD4 menu music was definitely a classic

I also like MW2's. Very dark. I hated MW3's at first but i loved it after awhile. W@W Is probably the most unique one. Very eery. Blops in nice also.

I wish they had used this for MW3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_yxn3I-aW0&feature=g-crec-lik

Its not set up like this. At least I don't think so.

 

[madmaxx350]

i'm on the side that said, minus hit detection(and shitty netcode in general) Black Ops was the best COD since MW.

Thats horrible. Sounds like a choir.

Aren't they going to start preloading today??

EDIT: Yep, pre-loading now.

[Liferebooted]

Anyone else with the deluxe version not seeing anything about their nuketown stuff?

Stat reset on tuesday rite??????

 

[Uno Venova]

"MAINTENANCE IN PREPARATION FOR LAUNCH..."

You just know online is still going to be poor on launch day.

 

[shungokusatsu]

Stat reset on tuesday rite??????

I doubt it. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think they've ever reset stats at launch for any CoD.

[DRE Fei]

Lol, I don't think so. They didn't do it last year or the year before that.

 

[shungokusatsu]

Still no direct-feed capture footage of PS3 that isn't youtubed?

These next 3 days are going to be the longest ever. I just got my net upgraded to 50Mbps and I'm on vacation all of next week - bring on blops 2.

Pc users fucked over once again.

 

[Raijin_Cain]

I have it pre-ordered but I have not been payting much attention to previews and such.

For someone like me who likes running around the map (no camping for me, ever) even if it means dying a lot, is there a good build in terms of perks and killstreaks?

 

[cripterion]

Preload not showing up on Steam yet, kinda sucks since this is a big download!

Weird, I got my keys from Amazon and steam let me preload everything.

restart steam. That is what I did to get it to show up.

Yup that did it. Thanks. Preloading now!

It's not that big. It's only what 13GB?

 

[Kung Fu Grip]

I always wondered why they took out the ability to use your night vision goggles in multiplayer? COD4 is the only version that had it.

 

[legacyzero]

THREE separate exe's.

Why the fuck would you do that?

I always wondered why they took out the ability to use your night vision goggles in multiplayer? COD4 is the only version that had it.

and it was next to useless in COD4. I practically only ever used it on Wetwork, the worst map in the game.

 

[Protein]

Anything crazy-different from the previous iterations? I'm on the fence about buying this and the last CoD game I played was MW2 campaign, and about a day of Black Ops MP.
