I don't get why they added unlock tokens, they seem so redundant when everything is unlocked via rank anyway.

It seems pretty clear they were trying to minimize the importance of ghost in every possible way. By making people play to level 55 they were probably trying to show people they don't need it, and can get by fine without it.
The tokens really do feel pointless. For some reason Treyarch are big fans though, as they did something similar in the previous game.
Game needs HC Kill Confirmed to come back.

I bet this gets asked all the time but here goes: do I lose my weapon camo if I prestige? I think the answer is yes but I am not sure. I am a few kills away from completing the b23r unlocks...

No camos are different from attachments. They are constant.
IW.net in MW2 and MW3, plus unoptimized BLOPS1. Less people want to take the plunge after those.

Do the stats towards your camos stay, too?

Black Ops 2 is the best Call of Duty has been on PC since World at War, despite the lack of a server browser this time and the ability to get custom maps.

Really? That's a shame, the only playlist I really enjoyed on my own. Oh well.

This whole probation/naughty corner shit is just making the netcode issues more frustrating and obvious rather than punishing legit quitters.
Get kicked as host? Sit in the naughty corner!
Host leaves and whole game gets sent back to the lobby? Sit in the naughty corner!
An amazingly dumb idea. If its not canned, I wont be forking out for DLC.

I'm getting probation just leaving lobbies.. wtf man
Yeah it sucks for the few people that enjoyed it but 10-15x more people are playing the playlist that replaced it so..
Me and my homies just found this after playing HCTDM the last week or so...I/we do a lot better for some reason.

Have the strikeforce mission generally been received positively?

I don't think the paid elite subscription has anything to do with BO2. I could be wrong, I'm sure you don't get any of the map packs though.
What replaced it? Kill Confirmed? I don't understand why they can't have both. Thanks for taking away something people enjoy to artificially inflate another playlist's numbers... I'm sure there would be almost as many people playing the new playlist without removing FFA.

Uhg, I can't decide on SMR with or without select fire on. Thing is such a beast both ways. But I feel like I'm wasting a spot with select fire if I can learn how to aim and use the trigger right.

Im using the SMR now, just because I've seen how well it displays emblems. Almost got it to second prestige.
I thought full auto would make it great but the clip is too small to be used like a traditional auto AR and I seem to do better with semi auto anyway.
Its garbage in close quarters without the laser beam thingy though.

Sure but I'd say people often decide to buy a game based on how good previous entries were.

If he was like that the whole game it's an old bug. I did that once on accident in CoD 4. Ended up running around just knifing everyone because I ran out of ammo.
I get that all the time in Sticks and Stones. Very frustrating, especially when you lung and just fly right by them...
LowParry
Member
So frustrating at times.lol you missed
lol
They are okay, the trick is to play them in tactical view. If you try to solo them you'll most likely get overwhelmed and lose 'map control'. You should only switch to FPS view if you want to activate an objective faster than the AI would.
that is so frustrating, only thing worse are those lagging knife only players, who dont seem to have that problemn with it and can knife you from whereever they are.
Halcyon

I honestly don't even ever attempt to knife because of this. Playing sticks and stones is hilarious because the crossbow doesn't work and knifing just makes you feel like an idiot.
Both players just dancing around whiffing at point blank range.

I use it without select fire. It's more accurate and faster. The problem is going from a smg to the SMR because I forget that you can't hold the trigger down in close quarters.
And like all guns for me they work great if the matchmaking isn't laggy. When there's lag tracking targets horizontally is much more difficult with a single shot gun.

If I remember correctly:
Five in Carrier. (537 spm)
Six in Turbine. (394 spm)
Not many caps available when I get like 6-9 defends per round. My friends and I (two other guys with me) don't like triple capping or pushing too far into the enemy spawn territory. We just like grabbing A (or C) and B asap and holding down the fort from there on out.
I usually lead my team in caps and defends. My SPM in Domination is about a 340 and I usually sit atop the lobby leader board. I'm pretty proud of that fact
Edit: I'm not claiming to be some elite beast at CoD. I just find it funny when the other team rage and blames their lack of success on the map and not the fact that you tore them up strategically.

Okay what is the use of owning a game that i cannot play for more than twenty minutes. Im still using an old phat 60 gig ps3 with upgraded hdd. I thought maybe its my system but i can play Farcry 3 for hours with no issues. And it looks as if this patch has made it "quicker" with the shut off. Has there been any talk of this issue? Doi have to go to the forums for blops 2? Come on somebody tell me what direction i need to pursue in order to play something i paid good money for. I mean i see youtubers complaining about patches but yet to address this....

What problem are you having?'
Crossbow and ballistic knife aren't hitscan, you have to lead your shots.
LOL no. Hardcore is nothing but tents and campfires.

The long and short of it. I play Blops for more than twenty minutes its a miracle. While playing my system TOTALLY SHUTS DOWN. It flashes red and i have to cut off my ps3 in the back and recycle the system. Ive not had any other issues with any games other than blops 2. Like right now im gonna attempt to get on again and hope i get some playtime.

So i can play Farcry 3 for hours on end and Asscreed 3 as well but its my ps3.....

What's more likely, that a piece of plastic is shutting your PS3 off, or that there's a problem with your PS3?
Is the game just crashing or is your PS3 literally turning itself off?

I've already accepted the fact that Treyarch isn't going to do jack shit about the lag compensation, but at least address the stupid fucking spawn to instadeath. You should not encounter an enemy within 5 seconds of spawn. I used to think deathstreaks were absolutely stupid and unwarranted in the previous titles but holy shit does this game need them, just solely so you can survive spawning.
