Agreed. I'm enjoying it infinitely more than MW2. Feels a lot less unfair and random and like it requires more skill.subversus said:

Really?
I'm pumping it out of my 5.1 but most of the guns sound like pellets and the toink toink psshh of the grenades is weak.
Does anybody else have weird freezes in the lobby after a match? It always freezes for 10-30 seconds each time, it's very annoying.
Also i think the Valkyrie rockets out of a care package are glitched, they always blow up in my face

It's a huge step up on ps3 at least. I've heard the audio in mw2 on ps3 was way worse than on 360._Alkaline_ said:

I think once the plethora of broken shit gets fixed across all three platforms, people will come around to Black Ops. Although I can't say I blame the shear amount of skepticism out there right now, since many of us were fooled into thinking MW2 was going to be the grand successor to CoD4 only to have our hopes and dreams stomped on.
Personally, I already love the game despite having the broken-ass PC version. So I can't imagine how much I'll enjoy it when the game is in ship-shape two months from now

Although not perfect, I think the explosions have much more of a bass-y pop to them. The grenades from mw2 sound like they were recycled from cod 2, there's just no oomph to them. Guns sound more explosive too, but they could definitely still use some work. I've been spoiled with Reach though, the weapon/grenades sound excellent.

Guys Im stuck!!
Im on that mission where I have to destroy the ZPU and clear the north village and head into the rat tunnel. I try to go into the rat tunnel but I can't. I've tried throwing nades, and rockets to open the covered rat tunnel and nothing works. I thinking that this is a bug cuz I end up taking my life to restart the checkpoint but I still get the same results when Woods orders me to the rat tunnel....or Im doing something wrong...so yeah help!

I actually had a ridiculous kill in my first game on Nuketown. Well, I was the one who was killed. Someone shot a tube at the start, it rebounded off the roof of the house on the other side of the map without exploding, hit the ground and hit me direct impact (once again without exploding). You wouldn't read about it. Unfortunately I forgot to save it and it was over 100 games ago so I think it's out of the equation. Shame.

Alright I havent really posted in the thread much but now that I've played the game for quite a bit, here is my 2 cents on the 360 version mp:
-Love the way the game plays and the new rules like earning killstreaks only through your own kills. Slower pace is nice.
-Liking the CP system although I kind of miss the unlockable stuff that comes with doing challenges like in MW2
-Maps are good, but the spawn system is absolutely terrible. I thought mw2s spawns were bad, but this one is just annoying. Every once and awhile in MW2 Id see myself spawn in view of my killer. But this has happened at least 20 times in the past 2 days I've had black ops. Nuketown is just stupid. How did a map like that get through playtesting? Also why did they put a vote for "previous" map. Why the hell would you want to do that? It should be 2 random maps to vote on OR the random selection.
-I never thought I'd say this, but I kind of miss seeing people snipe. I'm not sure if its just because it just came out, but I've seen a max of 5 snipers total in all the games I've played.
-The wager modes are really cool. Love gun game and one in the chamber.
-Hit detection seems a bit off. I shot some guy in the lower waist area and ended up getting a headshot somehow.
All in all with everybody elses sentiments, I'm enjoying the game a lot and its much less stressful than mw2. I loved mw2 as hard to believe as it is, but it definitely was a bit stressful. Black ops so far hasnt had me rage at all.
So far so good!

Funny how whenever you play Nuketown, you have to play it at least two or three time since everyone votes for it again. Not sure why Treyarch went that way.

Hey guys about the grenade sound, I have thrown the (real but no explosive) grenades you buy at Army Navy stores they make the same sound as throwing a baseball or softball on concrete (espcially the older pineapple frags) its like a dull thud. So don't get to excited about that grenade sound.
Also flashbangs and concussion grenades sound like soup cans.

So are they going to patch Hardline Pro on SAM and Sentry drops? Because I'm running SAM, Care, Sentry and I was getting Dogs, Chop Gun, and Attack Chopper last night.

Eh, it's not too bad. I mean, it'll drop the party every once in a while, but it goes through eventually. Takes a minute or two for me on average.JB1981 said:

Edit: Just got in a game with my friend, selected my class and instant connection crash
I am absolutely stuck at the "Find and kill
" section on veteran. I've made it as far ad the locker room, but there's still no checkpoint, which means I'm playing a 15ish minute segment over and over again. Does anyone know if the enemies in this section infinitely spawn in, or can I actually clear them out?

Sounds like a bug, you should be able to just drop down there.Verano said:

I have 11 hours in and have not died to a tube once. I love this game. The ranks come so fast too. I'm level 39 now with 49k in the bank I need to spend before I prestige. Good stuff.

Christ, finally managed to get a headshot while in Second Chance to earn the Pro version. Now just to drop a sentry gun near the enemy and hope they drop it close to me to finish out Ghost.

So whats the deal with the textures on 360 not loading?
And why is Warlord such a useless perk? Maybe the pro version is better but you can only use it with like 2 or 3 attachments.
Want a shotgun and a sight? Nope
Suppressor and a flamethrower? Nope.
The only things you can match up are extened/double tapped mags, the sights and the suppressor.
Lastly there better be a perk with no fall damage and Marathon Pro better be infinite run...
edit: looked at the perk list. Warlord is still useless
