Carl on Duty: Black Cops

Drex ain't got OP ):

http://www.totallyduh.com/one-liner-black-jokes.html

Yeah, the single player doesn't seem particularly good.
The multiplayer looks like it should be better than MW2 which I played a lot with friends.

hate this game , will take mlg ql spot :(

The storyline is fucked....

well, it gotta be better than medal of honor

well the first reviews sound very promising (sp wise, dont care one bit about mp)

but i also have to agree with this:

"Treyarch's game is exhilarating and beautifully orchestrated, but it feels like a full-stop, it needs to be a full-stop, because toward the end of the campaign, bombardment fatigue begins to set in," opines the reviewer. "As CoD players we have travelled the world, killing people, following orders, hunting down madmen ... many of us have had enough. Call of Duty should go out on a high, or at least come back totally re-invented."

Tons of ppl had finished this game for three times already...
The Xbox360 version was leaked 2 weeks before official realese.

why are you telling me this?
why would i want to play it on a fucking xbox?

Your playing on PC? Most of the people I know are 360 owners so I will most likely play on 360 but I know I would enjoy it infinatly more on PC :( (as I did MW2).

Fucking console noobs! :|

i dont own a console and although i have played through a few fps games on a 360 i would never buy a fps game for a console if i have the alternative to play it on the pc. (sadly the games get developed with a console focus nowadays so i have to bear some negative aspects in any way :( )

Couldn't agree more - I own a console and a PC and always choose PC for FPS gaming.

Console is great as media server and for driving games though ...

Pirate copies are too damn to control on PC, that's why companies all turn to console where they can easily get 3 times more sales.

However, all games are better on PC, coz we can use self-made mods etc.

For single player games yes, PC users just pirate... Multiplayers a different story. (FU CD KEYS!)

On 360 you can pirate and play online rather easily. (although you still have to pay xbl membership! :|)

M$ will ban those players if they connect to xlive.

Multiplayer thing made it harder, but illegal servers are everywhere....

yeah, i guess i'll have to go for the SP again...

even if the fighting/shooting mechanism should be boring again, atmospherically it prly will pay off

how was MoH in that regard? SP-wise?`

horrible

the atmosphere wasn bad, but it was worse in every aspect, story, graphic, ai (not that cod is a prime example here but moh is even worse) and it was somehow missing the thrill.. dunno but its a failed copy of cod mw2 and you really dont need to play it

yes i am going to buy this game and sink tons of hours into the MP and slowly but surely get sicker and sicker but wont stop playing. just like the last one.

YOU ARE A SHADOW OF YOUR FORMER SELF

Please don't make jokes about my shadow, I know what you're thinking tom alright just don't

im actually taking the plastic wrapping off the box as i read this. no lie. what have i become?

I'll just watch the (darksydephil) play trough on youtube. Don't really care too much for these types of games, but still I'd like to see the pretty graphics and stuff.

a bit unrelated, but i thought it was funny
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0xWCkLFxoM :D

if it gets competitive i'll play it

The cod series makes me wanna cry - it's just so god damn horrible, I can only barely find words for it.

sp? mp?
why?

would you need explaining to know why it's mp is horrible?

:D
tbh i have never seen or palyed the mp since cod2
but i heard there is a weird level up system and there were no dedicated servers for mw2 (lulz), is it also retarded gameplay wise? seems to be quite popular (with the noobs, so it probably is/has to be)

cod 4 was both extremely dumbed down and popular, mw2 happened to be so shit even the online casuals didn't like it (still bought shitloads though), and now there's black ops, probably way better than mw2 feature-wise, but still crap gameplay-wise. Not that any of those newbies care, seeing the sales it might even get big enough to replace cs.

It would never replace CS nor any game because the core gameplay of it is fucking terrible

Halo's also terrible, for example. And cs is pretty shit too =D
Unless I miss something really important, it's the same.

Difference is there is skill envolved in CS, no matter how much people refuse to believe it.

I'm not saying that they're all the same, but the biggest difference between cs and cod is the playerbase & history (including evolution etc), they're quite similar in the way they limit individual skill to get a higher % of teamwork really [realistic\tactical shooter LOL]. Unless we're speaking about a console version of the game and it's even shittier than I thought :(

COD doesn't even have recoil...

Well yeah, it's crap. But it's not like it's as drastic of a leap in removing personal skill from games as cs was in the day

in the day?! CS (1.6 at least - the more skilled version) is still going strong and if anything is a higher skill level then back 'in the day'

ofc, I meant that it first effectively created this "tactical\realistic shooter" type in most people's eyes

Did you just call random spread (as in complete casino dice luck) skill? OH MY ME. Cod > CS.

Random spread as in CS or COD?

ill stick to bad company 2 for now, soon vietnam add on for it too!

this

cod4, best.
does black ops allow dedicated servers?

Yes, they made a big deal about it in fact.
It actually makes me miss the group matchmaking stuff in MW2, it does have it's advantages.
Currently the game is a laggy mess though, hopefully they fix it.

sp is fun, mp is cod

you'd only be an idiot to pay 3 times for the "same" game

also, bc2 shits on this

Whos paying? ;-)

over 1 million people so far ;-)

And at least 95% of them are like this:)

have you seen the part 3?

Yeah, wasn't funny, bordering on child abuse.

bought it
it was so terribly laggy (fps wise thanks to steam overlay or something?) on release night but it got fixed the afternoon action.
it's arrite gonna keep playing it and hope it gets somewhere. \o/

fuck yeah. AND, I'm playing on ps3!!!

I'm owning BAJS up on the 360 yo. Console ftw.

just played the first misson... where is the fucking challenge?

played it on hard (3/4) and didnt get even close to dieing even once. your health regenerates in an instant (at first i liked the mechanic cause it got rid of the stupid health boxes but by now it feels like a joke) and your ai mates seem to be able to kill all enemies alone. why fire burst when the spread does not force you to, why use different weapons when the default one is better in any situation and has more than enough ammo? bullshit :(
the "orchestration" of the mission was well done but almost it felt more like an interactive movie and not like a game :/ no challenge end even the cool moves you did were done by pressing one single button.

this is gamings future: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWbLOFGSEDo

wow, just wow. :/

gg 21st century gaming

i think it's more about how you play it, i always quickload in mw like games if my performance wasn't so good and I just abused the health regeneration thing

yeah right.. that makes sense

ofc you can say, "thats not what its meant to be",
but in arcade/2d times, people made speedruns because the game was not challenging enough or they explored 100% of the game world already (I did that with SMario too)

I never thought I'd come to the day where I'd say the phrase "in my day..." but it looks like it's coming to it..



In my day games were difficult.

Battletoads raped my childhood: hardest - game - ever.
made me stomp the NES controller (the only time i did something like that).

to make things worse, coop was impossible. why did one of the best games on NES need to be so difficult? :<

moar difficult than ghost&goblins?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RULv6HbgEjY

oh god that is just embarrassing

hahaha so bad. easy mode game for movie watching. games used to be harder

last "new" shooter i tried was gears of war and in there your teammates would atleast get raped if you didnt take things in your hands.

thank god for emulation!
gaming is becoming so shit, i'm resorting more and more to the immense catalog of emulated games (besides the quality PC titles)

I don't know what you are talking about. Me and my friends have bought l4d and are playing that, very cool :D

l4d rocks!

I like L4D 1 & 2 but never tried multiplayer..

If you don't play it multilayer what's the point?

It appears to be playable with <300 ping, so if anyone wants to play my steam id is tB0nE

I don't buy pc games so don't play online :<

Well who's fault is that meant to be?

DRM's

COD series

2>>4=1>7>6>>5>3

=) +1

4>6=2>7>1>>5>3

BO is mega broken on ps3 : \

One of the worst games ever, not worth it even for free. (2/10)

Played it for 5mins and turned it off, waste of a DL disc :(

I hoped that it would get better, so I struggled until about 70%, I even double-checked if my graphics and sound cards are not malfunctioning or anyting, but even if they would, still no excuse for the coding horror:(

ps.: I gave it 2/10 because of MP part. SP is 0, period.

Whuts wrong with it?

what's not?

- ps2 like graphics with a high-res texture pack and realtime shadows. (I just checked and Black on the ps2 looks better tbh)
- enviroment geometry and lighting made by a complette clueless beginner.
- animations are cartoonish, most scenes reminds me of the psx times.
- sounds are from a snes game (example: someone fires a shotgun next to your ear and you hear a sneeky fart).
- serious fps-drops on my average gaming rig (4Ghz-Dualcore with 9800GTX)
- one of the dumbest AI ever created. (examples: AI controlled teammate standing (between!) next to 4 nme units waving at you to follow him, while nme solders just shooting at you and ignoring him. - or - AI controlled teammate yelling about incoming tanks minutes after I eleminated all tanks, - or - engine spawning black vietnamise nme units with US weapon in hand. - etc, etc, etc)
- story is for kids at age 13.
- MP spawnsystem = joke

etc, etc.. this was part of an endless list, the only good thing about this game is that dedicated servers are back, but with the current lag, its almost worse than p2p.

bottom line: not worthy for the COD title, simply a rippoff with a bad fps game.

Just played some blackops and came across a cheater.
I made a bustedvid

Performance is terrible, the coding is a bit of a mess.

The game itself is pretty fun though. With some patches it'll be a more than decent casual shooter.

You'll probably see the decent casual shooter get more tournaments than Quake :(
