You are kidding right?

More like console kills the game - If consoles were not around the level of graphics and game play of these games would be significantly better.

But as games are coming out and coded with 4yr old hardware in mind as opposed to what's available today or tomorrow, you always get a fking shit game which is but a shade of what it could be

They don't get it do they?

A PC can have 12 screens with higher than 'Full HD' res running a game or 1 screen and 10 screens with porn and one with SAU.

Consoles can only dream of connecting more than one that isn't a duplicate. Three at best if you have a few consoles and a few copies of Forza.

Even with PC only games it still comes down to supporting the wider audience which means lower specs. Wider audience = bigger sales. No use releasing a game that's amazing if it wont make money.

Only problem with pc is that everytime a new game comes out. You need to buy a new pc with better specs just to run it lolol

lolol...no

My LAN pc still runs a GTS250 which is a 9800GT which is a 8800GT which was launched in 2006. Seriously if the best you can do is 'you have to buy new hardware to play the newest most innovative games the way they were intended' you lose.

do you plan on getting black ops on your pc?

Of course not, i don't want a console designed game.

Plus MW2 was shit house. I wont waste my money again.

Friend of mine who plays online/PC - reckons its shit at this stage (game control mechanics are shit, but that'll be due to console IMO).

He plays all the FPS shooters - tier1, MW2, BC2 etc etc - so good enough of a review for me not to waste my money this time round.

:unsure:

I've not changed the major parts in my PC really for nearly 3 years.

Only thing I've changed was a graphics card, @ a cost of $150

I'd rather do that every 18-24 months than play games designed to run off 4yr old graphics :blink:

Some news regarding Multiplayer

Pressing select on the lobby screen will bring up a Host Selection Option.

These are:

DEFAULT - the game finds any host ANYWHERE in the world.

LOCALE - the game looks for hosts close to your location then expands it to far away hosts.

LOCALE ONLY - it will only search for hosts close to your location.

I choose LOCALE as it finds games quick and in oz. LOCALE ONLY takes freakin ages to find a game (and that's IF it finds one). Or if you want lag and shoot people from overseas (mostly Americans) then go for DEFAULT.

Some news regarding Multiplayer

i have some news for all the PC people.

this game runs on STEAM - if you dont have steam, the update takes AAAGGGGGGEEEEESSSS, 10 minutes and its at 4%

i will give you more info when the game installs and i can play

Dunno why so many people are hating on this game, I reckon its way better than MW2. It basically IS MW2 but with tons of new little features. Sure if you're the type to prestige 10x over and still rack up a year constantly online play you might see slight differences and problems, but for the casual gamer this game rocks.

I like the money system too, although I think it would've been better if guns didn't have level restrictions, but instead had higher costs for the later tier weapons. So you could save for your favourite gun, or just upgrade as you can afford them. The money is common enough to buy pretty much every gun, but not enough to modify them all (no doubt this will change once you level up). So you have to pick and choose which you like.

What guns is everyone using? My best so far is the Falil with red dot and silencer, or in smaller maps the AK74u with red dot and dual mags. I just unlocked the AUG too, but I don't think I like it. It shoots insanely fast and I find myself spraying a full clip just to kill one guy.

Maybe because MW2 was a steaming pile of turd?

Maybe because Treyarch ALWAYS just tweak something IW has already done and usually make it worse?

Those early COD campaigns were pretty sweet.

But how is worse? It's different, but that doesn't automatically mean its worse. Like I said most of the hardcore gamers hate this new versions because its not what they're used to. I hated MW2 (and the original) in the end because I'd log and everyone was multiple prestige and simply owned me. With this game I can keep decent kill/death ratio, at least for now.

You are playing a shooter on a console so you don't really count.

Having said that MW1 was great, physics were near arcade but it was pretty good and you could get to max level in 24 hours and get whatever loadout worked for you. Dedicated servers meant good pings for all. PB was updated often and a few servers were extremely aggressive at weeding out cheats.

Then IW said 'oh hai, we crapped this out and it seems to work ok on xbox - you should all buy it' sadly people did, more people than ever. I must admit it was a good marketing campaign and they probably could have included a dose of AIDS in the packaging and it still would have sold.

The fact that it took Treyarch, the far and away lesser developer up until MW2, to put what are standard features in games usually back was never a good sign.

Anyone who played most of the COD series knows that it was always the Treyarch offerings that were crap.

how long did single player take you to beat and on what difficulty?

3rd and hard to say. I started at 1am and played until 5am then slept, then woke up around 2 and played till 4, then went out and don't know what time I got back but had it done about an hour after coming home

AWESOME SECRET

At the main menu, press L1, R1, L1, R1, L2, R2, L2, R2. This will initiate an interactive mode that will eventually lead you to a special mode known as "Black Ops Zombies: Zombie Ops." I'm not going to say how to access Zombie Ops... I can't take all the fun out of it :whistling:

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
