I tried out the new maps last night-and while I do enjoy them-my god the camping is insanely out of control in this game.

New maps are always extra campy.
So, anybody on Xbox will be able to play all 3 content drops before people who paid for Elite on PS3 even get to play the 2nd of 3 content drops? Seems legit...

6 content drops.
I understand, but those 6 pieces of content come as 3 different content drops for Elite users (Piazza/Liberation, Overwatch, Black Box/Spec Ops missions).

Good point, I forgot about that, will do next time I play.
There's s FOV changer specifically designed for the game, should be easy to find on google.
It's not bannable either.
Yeah, I found FOV changer by AgentRev. I will try it but really dont want to be banned by VAC
I wish IW added it in the game option
thx

How much will just the spec-ops missions cost?

You cannot buy them seperate.

I saw this post, did it, played a few games and really noticed a difference. I never would have guessed it would do anything.

I might try turning off theater, but I'd be pissed if something awesome happened and I didn't get it. :/

Didn't see this answered yet. For some people after the update their game/chat volume settings were mucked with. Either go into options before you get into a game and you can change them there, or alternately once you are in a game you can also bring up the options and adjust in there.

Same thing, holy hell does it make a difference, back to my conquering. OMG its like night and day for me.

I've always wondered how Black Ops would have played if you could turn off the theatre recording...

What are the best perks for non-lethal gameplay on Domination (using the Riot Shield and anti-vehicle launchers)?

Glad to see that they care about the ps3 and pc versions.
Probably Blind Eye, Blast Shield, and Stalker/Dead Silence/Sitrep (take your pick).

Thanks. I'll try that, it should be fun.
Still no word on DLC maps for the PC version?

I don't understand this at all. Can I buy any of these with a PS3 WITHOUT the Elite garbage?

Not until late-April.
I actually turned mine back on because I didn't notice a difference either and was missing out on some good games lol

They've added two extra contents to the content calender. Any predictions as to what those are? I'm guessing SP campaign stuff, since they are listing it as "classified."

Either that or gun packs.
Also, it's slightly pathetic we still don't have the Clan XP from the clan ops.
They cancel operations all the time, nothing new..
It was the only clan op scheduled for the weekend though.

I'm really annoyed by the cancelled Op.
Me and my friends had such a blast last weekend playing them and were looking forward to the new one.
Are there like 5 people working at Beachhead? How long can it take for them to go through all of this stuff?

Best Buy has the DLC collection up for pre-order, $14.99. Download code.
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/CALL+OF...]/1000001604.p?id=1000001603&skuId=1000001604
My question, if you did pre-order this, and the price was actually higher, would they honor the $14.99?
Debating if I should just wait for the collection pack or go out now (thanks, tax return) and purchase the membership.

Here's something I've been meaning to ask, but it just completely slipped my mind.
For the Xbox guys, when you are partied up specifically in a group of 6 players, is there often long waits to find games?
On the PS3, we often have to limit our group to just 5 because when we have 6 we'll literally sit around waiting for minutes just to find a lobby/players. Sometimes it works alright but for the most part when in a group of 6, I think the system tries to find either another group of six or other times it'll be like 2 or 3 single players plus then a group of 3. It's super frustrating, but not sure if it's just an PS3 thing.

They honored my Hardened Edition preorder at $79.99 before they corrected it to $99.99 , so I say if you're getting this, definitely go for it. Although I also fully expect the DLC to be $15, but you never know.

Took a peek at Robert Bowling's twitter just now. He responded to someone, about whether it was worth buying elite and his response was:
Mistake? Or can we really expect 24+ pieces of content? It's already up to 22. 24 makes sense if they do plan on releasing 4 collection packs, with 6 pieces each.
And I would be surprised if the packs cost $14.99. A pack of 4 maps from previous games cost $15...but because it's now 4 maps + 2 spec ops, I feel they'll bump it up to $20. That's why I asked about the best buy preorder.

I already discussed a possible $20 pricepoint with some of my friends (almost no one bought Elite) and that's an outright deal breaker. Fuck, with the Elite playlist setup and almost no one on my list having Eilte, Elite has almost been nearly useless for me since I have to basically play by myself to get the maps, and if they price the DLC at $20 no one's going to buy it so I'd be pretty much done with the game. Will be interested to see if they try to get away with that or not.

I'm more excited about the fact that along with the new map will be a title update that buffs the LMGs.

I just saw elsewhere that Rob Bowling has said on Twitter there will be 24 pieces of DLC (and has said that new weapons and old maps are possible but just not confirmed), and there are only 22 on the calendar but an advertised 20 minimum.
What is the actual deal here?
I also don't know how I feel about weapons being added via DLC. Anything like that really, weapons, perks, killstreaks etc. would be hard to implement I'm guessing. Weapons definitely would, could a non-paying person pick one up off the ground? Or killstreaks, would it be B.S to be killed by something that's not attainable because you haven't paid for it?

Everyone bitched about the $15 MW2 DLCs and it turned out to be the highest-selling DLC ever.
There will be enough idiots that would buy a $20 map pack at this point.
