I don't have any other games besides COD. And my PS3 will still works for Netflix. I'd give you my Dual Shock but its not in very good shape either.

Haha, no worries man. Maybe it's time to take a break from gaming. I've done that and when you come back, you get that old gaming itch back.

You should see the struggles with MMO players. I mean if you think FPS players are bad....oh man.

I can only imagine. I've seen the PC freakouts on YouTube.

A kid was playing what looked like a DDR(?) game on his PC. He messed up a few times and smashed his monitor with his keyboard.

Lol. Then he said "Oh LOOK! It's broken!"

Ya don't say?! Haha.
 
Watched a 402 Thunder vid of a dude hiding in one of the cabins on Hijacked. Gonna try it out and see what I'm missing out on.

you mean this video? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpQX8ktyfJA&list=UU-uyvnv84IIzV3G_O4fPYgA&index=2&feature=plcp
his first kill in the video is hilarious btw
Well I just snapped my disc in half. You guys have fun. I'm officially out of gaming forever.

I've been close to that breaking point too man, so I empathize with you. Black ops 2 is great when it works, so you wanna keep playing, but the inexplicable lag that happens so often is just frustrating.

Here is the emblem my brother made for me, I love it so much! Link from Zelda of course.



And here is his one, Ichigo from Bleach.



Soooo talented. To be able to make these like he does, just from complete scratch and they turn out awesome as. I know because I got him to come round to my house specially to make mine. :D



damn I thought my philosoraptor was ok lol.
 
Camping is fine - its what people who can't do well with a more aggressive strategy do. Personally if I had to resort to camping to do well I wouldn't have fun anyway though lol.

i took someone's carepackage and hacked it as well

Protip: You can start hacking friendly packages the minute the heli stops and hovers if you're on high enough ground. Stole a friendly package as it was falling today, guy was raging in the chat about the game being a buggy POS. Priceless
 
Whoever said plug directly into your modem, thank you. I can actually engage in gunfights and see people when I cut corners now.

Doing this took the game from bad to playable for me. After a while I thought it wasn't working for a while and that it was in my head because I got a few laggy matches, but when I went back to using a router things got much worse. I've switched back and forth a few times to make sure and it's the same every time; lag gets worse while using my router. It's not something that will work for everyone but it couldn't hurt to try this at least. While hardwiring to my modem I also noticed a slight improvement in Halo 4 too lol.

You know, gaming terminology has actually evolved and changed since Quake 2 came out.

The change is due to cry-babies. Sorry to say but it is. Everyone always wants to throw up an EXCUSE because they run head-first down the same stretch of map getting killed over and over instead of taking one of the 5006 different side-routes to flank the guy posting up on D.

I almost did this the other night - lag comp related.
 
Not sure if this has been posted. A pretty in-depth way to fix lag/ lag compensation. Gonna try it at lunch.

I went ahead and gave this a try anyways, I figured what could it hurt. I managed to stay 4 bars and never dropped down to 3 and back to 4 fluctuating like I normally do. Didn't notice any lag but only got to play 2 games and I sucked ass so its hard to say if it actually improved my connection any. I did stay at 4 bars the entire time though so hopefully that is a sign of at least a more stable connection on my end. Probably gonna try Halo 4 again tonight, I've had bits of lag in it as well.
 
Is there any fix/tweak/whatever for the weirdly quiet audio (and then the thunderously loud and seemingly unadjustable voice chat level) on PC?
 
finally got around to beating the campaign and man that was whack. thought it was weaker than BO1 and definitely worse than the MW ones which i really enjoyed.

it was fun shooting admiral cocksucker though.
 
If I use the wildcard to have 2 claymores, and I place them and resupply with scavenger, what is the limit of how many claymores I can have down at one time before they start disappearing?
An interesting thing I tried out is that the limit is in place even if you don't use the wildcard to begin with 2.

I did this yesterday with my bouncing betty. I placed it and then after I killed someone I went and placed a second one and they both remained.
 
Things that need to be fixed:

Lag compensation
Spawns
Hip fire spread should be increased both regularly and with laser sight on SMG
Range on SMG should be reduced slightly
Fire rate on SMG should be dropped slightly. Regular fire rates are as fast or faster than those with rapid fire in previous games.
Cost of UAV should increase 50-100 points
NOBODY uses LMG, perhaps give them FMJ automatically as a free attachment
Make friendly care packages unhackable
Remove the announcement to the other player when you hack their equipment, it sucks that it lets them know!
Awareness is basically useless. Increase/add footsteps that should be heard when players approach.
Dead Silence is useless because everyone is basically silent. This should be helped by increasing footsteps which could then be countered with Dead Silence
Pistol damage needs a slight decrease.
Fix the ridiculous bouncing care packages

Most important.

Yes.

Yes. Or give me 400 pts for shooting one down. That'll deter overuse of UAVs.

Very cool idea, increasing bullet penetration on LMGs. At least on Wii U, I do see people using them though. A lot with Target Finder. Considering I always add FMJ to my ARs, I'd be interested in your suggestion.

Remove the announcement to the other player when you hack their equipment, it sucks that it lets them know!

I don't know. Considering just how fast the Black Hat hacks equipment, I think it's a fair balance to let the other player know. And I use Black Hat.

Fix the ridiculous bouncing care packages

Add more bouncing care packages! What about a scorestreak where you do an escort airdrop on the other team, and it drops a million bouncing care packages on their heads?
 
Their needs to be a perk or something that highlights where UAVs are in the sky because it usually takes me way too long to find those fuckers.

Actually just showing UAVs on the radar itself would go a long way. I feel like an idiot looking in the air, spinning around in circles, whispering to myself, "Please don't get shot, please don't get shot, please don't get..."

I've been killed so many times spinning around looking in the air for UAVs. :(

The worst is when you spend a long time looking for it, you finally find it, and then it just flies away..

Hahaha. Yeah, once you see that black jet streak going, you start cursing yourself for even trying.

Another funny thing is when you look up to shoot a UAV and you see two flying right next to each other. Like the announcer guy didn't even bother to tell you about the other one since everyone's calling them in so fast.
