Patch so far is good, but the pistols are still too good at long range (read: long range in COD terms), SMG's are nicely balanced now.

Triple kill with a semtex earlier (HCTDM) that was fun.

Was you then kicked from the game for 3 friendly fire kills? :lol:
 
Had the chance to try out BOps 2 this week and was kinda let down. It feels too much like MW3 to me. The first BOps and MW2 had the same core concepts but played differently. This could as well be MW3 with different guns and killstreaks. I do like the pick 10 feature and the whole scorestreaks instead of killstreaks thing. Those aren't enough to interest me in buying it though. Was never a huge fan of the zombie modes either. Heard good things about the campaign so might rent it or borrow it and check that out.
 
I guess the "Christmas Noobs" are starting to pop up because I have been running into them a lot these last two days. I don't know why but my connection has been jumping a lot lately. It seems that Black Ops 2 is my only problem with this. Also, anyone else get an update?

Yeah I got an update for multiplayer. probably just a patch but I want to see the patch notes
 
I have been playing Hardcore for a couple of nights now, just for the challenges, but I thought that in MW3 it was a camp fest, in BO2 it is even worse.

TreyArch should have implemented some kind of tent perk or campsite perk.
 
Played my first game, went 47-13, and quit. Good way to start :lol:.

My regular group has moved over to HC Kill Confirmed. It's better, though obviously on poor designed maps like Drone and Aftermath, still campy.

My current annoyance is quickscoping, not so much a problem when there's one, but when you face a team of them, it's quite annoying in a whole manner of aspects.
 
I find the quickscoping much less of a problem than in Mw3.

But 1 thing that makes me want to break the disc into pieces is the ridiculously broken spawn system. I can't even count the amount of insta death spawns I've had.
 
I need help, and I thought this would be the best place to ask. I've been playing MW3 until three hours ago. Now I have started playing again 30 minutes ago and the POV of your player seems to have changed, as if your arms were longer or something. I don't know whether it is a bug, something I touched, or an update or anything. Can anyone tell me if this happens to you as well?
 
New DLC should be coming end of Jan for Xbox and a month later for PS3. This is all we have so far.

I remember seeing that on a video a few days after I traded in MW3. IIRC it's a hacked lobby and everyone in the lobby gets it. I'm not sure how you can reset it though.

^ Downhill and Hydro look really cool. I just hope they're larger maps centered around ARs and sniper rifles. Both MW3 and BO2's maps are all really CQC based as opposed to stuff like Drive-In and Array from Black Ops or Overgrown and Pipeline from COD4.

With a SMG included, I think not!
 
Die Rise looks pretty fun just by looking at the preview. And hopefully the multiplayer maps are more open and geared towards long range engagements as opposed to CQC as Daniel mentioned.
 
I can think of two things: It won't drop when you kill someone who has it. Or (like BF3), you can pick it up after killing someone with it, but you can't select it in Pick 10.
 
If you get the season pass now, will you still get the Nuketown zombies map for free? I'm debating wether or not to get it. Not very interested in the MP maps but the zombies.

Yup, it's quite poor, ultimately the small size of the maps is going to mean that it will always be a pain on most of them.

Why they don't make it optional and do like BF3 and let you choose where and when you spawn, also, give me a chance to change class between rounds, no reason at all to remove that.
 
So I've finally gotten Gold camo on the Knife, MTAR, SWAT, FHJ-18 AA, Five-seveN and the FAL.

I've got to do the revenge kills for the MSMC, and the No-Perks, No-Attachments for the Vector.

Very nice.:) I've got gold on the 870 and that's all so far. I'm really close on the KSG and I'm getting close on the MTAR.
 
^ I can't seem to takedown player controlled aircraft for the FHJ camo. :grumpy: I only have 2/10 and that's the last one I need for gold camo. I only have the gold 870MCS so far.
 
I don't bother going for the AGRs and Sentries because it's too hard to
Go for Dragonfires, Lodestars and VTOLs. For the Dragonfires, just fire and forget. For the other two, include a couple of Black Hats as well.
 
I have the golden shield. The challenges are so much easier than in previous games.

I use the shockcharge on the ceiling of a room and stay hidden behind my shield.(Camping n00b!!!!) Once the charge goes off I run towards the victim and bash them to death.

Running around with the shield is pointless as it seems to have less cover in Bo2.

That's actually pretty smart if you ask me. I have about 40 kills with it running around and consequently my k-d with it is probably .20 or around there.
 
I have gold with the MTAR, Type 25, the first shotgun, the S12, and the MP7.

I have only just discovered the diamond camo's, so I am going for the shotgun ones.
