Currently lv 15 on the first prestige, and the spawning problem not only happens on Domination games, but on TDM as well. It's easily the most infuriating thing in the game...next to my other huge problem with the gun combat, which is getting the drop on a guy, and he's still able to put you down. I don't like to boast, but I'm a pretty good shot. However, there's a ton of times where I run into a guy, get the first hit and end up getting killed. I've got no idea how the fuck it happens, but it happens often enough to piss me off to no end next to the spawning issues.

Thanks for the Direct2drive tip guys! That really sealed the deal for me. I played most of my modern warfare 1 on PC....It'll be good to go back.

So have they said if the zombie maps exclusive to the hardened and prestige editions will eventually be released for purchase?
I've pretty much excepted the game is going to be broken for the first month. Lag, spawn issues, imbalances, bugs, terrain exploits, all will likely be in plentiful supply once the masses have access to BO.
Just have to grin and bare it for the time being :/
*edit;
Speaking of spawn issues, is it even technically feasible for Treyarch to "fix" the spawn mechanics post-launch? I can't recall if they or IW have ever done that before.

Well, this will be the time for Treyarch to prove they want to be more like Bungie, other than just ripping off credits, file share, and theater mode. Lets see if they actually support the game.
If they do, oh man, this could be awesome.

Im in VA and saw one of those stolen copies on COD from Baltimore on craigslist today going for $80. I had not read the article on ign about stolen copies until tonight. If I hadn't been an hour away I would have gone through with it. Why is craigslist the most dangerous place on earth?

The game sounds broken and it hasn't even been released yet. Here's hoping Treyarch follows through on their promise and supports this game post launch.LeMaximilian said:

Multiplayer is not as good as MW2 for me. Spawning issues, already hacking problems, some maps aren't great, fucking RC cars, etc. Singeplayer on the other hand is fantastic. I'll post a full review later.Bread said:

The issue is YOU will get the first shot off, and STILL end up dying. Play 10 games or so, and you'll see what I mean.

FUCK RC CARS. Seriously, you thought shooting dogs in W@W was hard? Get ready for a whole new level of bullshit.

you were aiming for the head area yeah? Assuming yes but need to cover all bases.

If I haven't mentioned already, the same existing netcode issues in MW2 still exist in BO. Case in point, you're avoiding gunfire and run behind cover, several feet behind cover you'll end up getting killed. While on the killcam, you were not yet behind cover.

Here's the problem, I naturally aim for the head...but in BO, you have to aim for the balls and I'm not even joking. Most guns violently kick up when shooting, and if you end up getting shot while on a 1 v 1, you're gun will kick even more vertically throwing your reticle completely off target. So far, the greatest gun in the game is the G11, is the most damaging and least kick of any weapon. It's essentially a faster 3 burst than the Famas in MW2, with the same damage as MW2.

PC is unquestionably the superior version by some distance and not just in graphics. The only possible reason for choosing the console version in your case is if you want to play with particular friends.

Nuketown kinda reminds me of Rust. Small wide open map thats fun as hell whenever it comes around every now and then. Had some good times on Rust.

Just so any Australians reading this don't freak out thinking we have another Left for Dead 2 situation, it is actually the Austrian version that can be activated in Germany.

That pretty much seals it. I don't have the patience for that shit. Playing MW2 was an exercise in frustration because of it. Guess I'll rent the game, complete single player then return it. I was going to get BO for $25 bucks but I'll save that $25 and get Goldeneye or something else.
Sucks because I was hoping they would fix this crap. Oh well...

I don't see how you expected a new game to change your latency. Of course they wouldn't change the netcode, it works fine if you have a good connection, if you don't your fucked, upgrade your internets.

New to what exactly? Having put in over 20 days played in MW2, I know how frustrating shitty spawns and crap netcode can be. Any COD vet knows this. You new to this?zero margin said:

Well obviously W@W was based on Cod4 so the netcode was likely copy/pasta'd, naturally MW2s transfers to BO. Treyarch have done a lot I didn't expect them to overhaul the netcode either.
But seriously I think you get an unfair advantage if you have better ping and latency, I switched providers due to MW2 and bumped my speed up, I don't have that shit happening anymore. Namely those stupid teleport knifes.

Haven't gotten to play yet but all the maps seem pretty darn interchangeable from all the videos i've watched thus far. Sure they have all appear to have different color schemes and themes, but the layouts seem uninspired. Haven't seen a single 3rd floor on any map in any video i've watched. All the maps seem to have the same windy paths, same medium sized buildings...some even seem to have the same large middle building right smack in the center of the map. They're all very flat too. The little hills sometimes make the map... like Wastelend.
Somethings telling me I'm gonna be missing the ridiculous variety of mw2's maps. Yes, it took me a month or 2 just to figure some of those maps out completely, but that's the fun part. Same thing happened in COD4. I'd go from "Vote this shitty map" to "It's not a bad map" to "Best map in the game."

Oh and the party system is in similar condition to MW2 during launch. Entering games, friend missing, exit game, party disbanded for no reason. Try to get into another game, party breaks.
... It's not nearly as bad as MW2 at launch, but it's still frustrating. Was in a game where the system chose 7 different hosts before being able to play.
I'm just remembering these things as they come. If anyone has any specific questions then ask me.
Oh, and I think I've been killed by a sniper maybe twice in my whole time playing now. Assuming they're totally garbage now.

<------- is glad he doesn't give a shit about spawning problems because he doesn't play any modes where there is spawning.
Hopefully they get it fixed for you guys though.
