Call of Duty: Black Ops II - Vengeance DLC Coming July 2

[quote name='Wolve11']The map is still there, chill out.[/QUOTE]

then i must have a defunk setup as I just logged out and it was not there anymore. there are ahell of a lot of people complaining over at blackops2 web site as well. I enjoy that map
 
The map is still available to play on. There isn't a dedicated playlist for it and, as of right now, it isn't in any playlist rotation. You can only play custom games on it.

I'm sure they'll do another 24/7 run of it and hopefully they'll put it in the regular playlists as well.
 
I got a used PS3 version the Tuesday afternoon it came out from GS but of course it didnt have the Nuketown code, Im wondering now since it's not a 24/7 deal if I'm able to play it now in rotation
 
[quote name='panda911']Anyone else having issues with lag compensation? I can barely play a game without experiencing it.[/QUOTE]

Not me. At least not enough to notice it.

What guns are people finding most effective? I'm really digging the Type 25 with the 3 attachments wild card.

Have you noticed any UAVs not even showing up in the sky even though they're supposed to be up from the enemy team?
 
[quote name='The 7th Number']How do you put camo on your gun?

Man i cant wait to unlock ghost.[/QUOTE]

Highlight your weapon in Create-A-Class and press Y. You can apply Camouflages on Primary and Secondary weapons, as well as your Combat Knife.

Do you mind if I ask your internet speed?

I really haven't been looking for them since I'm not required to carry a secondary. I've seen them in the sky but it's only by chance so I don't know if it's consistent. Also I think there's a glitch with host migrating during a UAV/cUAV. After the host migrates, the killstreak will still be active, but won't appear in the sky.
 
It might not matter how fast your internet is, from what I've read. Ping/latency is a bigger issue. Also, Drifter just posted a video suggesting that folks bypass their router to help with lag comp and something called buffer bloat. I'm going to try it tomorrow and see if it helps.

I hope they keep it out of the playlists and keep it over in the sandbox in the corner so people who like it can play it all they want.
 
Thanks dotcody, i found the camo area.

Yeah when i started it tonight the servers were said to be down. I had a lot of moments where i shot a guy up and i died. Or i died before i even seen the guy come around the corner. IDK. And im playing hardcore. Though i dont have ghost, and just got the perk to hide from AI controlled aircraft. So maybe UAV was helping people know where i was.
 
Just played my first strike force mission. Color me unimpressed. The AI is so dumb. The soldiers dies in seconds it seems and even in the first mission your troops are vastly outnumbered. I might end up just skipping them altogether best ending be damned.
 
And they put Nuketown back up already. It isn't a 24/7 playlist but a small map moshpit. It requires you to have Nuketown to join the playlist.
 
I managed to beat all the Strike Force missions on Veteran. The only one I had any major issues was FOB Spectre. For that, I suggest getting all of your men and defend one spot. I chose to defend the Power Transformer. I took both the Sentry Turrets and put one behind the wall and have one facing the doorway. Have all your men in a spot behind the wall. Take over CLAW controls and camp the enemy spawns and you should be fine. I find that killing the enemy as soon as they rappel out the helicopter makes everything easier.
 
[quote name='The 7th Number']Another dumb question, can you add facepaint to your guy? If so how?[/QUOTE]

Oh yea, I forgot about the face paint. That was kinda kool to pimp your soldier.
 
This game is getting annoying.

The lag is horrible. Its like i get killed before i am even in the open. Like guys have 1-2 seconds advantage on me. I was just playing a game on the boat map. I was upstairs and i would move left slowly until i can see someone out of the window. I was dead before i could even see them. Too often im getting shot like that. If i try to run and gun, i see a person i can hit my trigger the millisecond i see them and im dead before i can even get a shot off. Its really annoying. Otherwise id say this game is pretty fun, but the lag just kills everything. Its not very fun when you feel like you are at a disadvantage.

I made a film, and uploaded it twice now. Both times it takes like 10 minutes, and the clip is only 30 seconds long. But when i see it update to my youtube page, for some dumb reason its only 1 second long. The second time i uploaded it, its 2 seconds long. Gees, i might have to upload it 30 times to get the full 30 seconds. And it was a pretty cool clip where i bounced a bouncing betty off a wall and it hit an enemy and killed him on impact.
 
I have to admit I kinda like the way they would release stuff for Elite last year, a little each month instead of a map pack every 3-4 months. That way you got a new map almost every month instead of having to wait.
 
Game is in definite need of a good patch.

So many inconsistencies with shooting, seems like others have a second on me when I watch the kill cams. All I do is die :bomb:

this... i cant stand this game, 1/2 my games my guns wont kill (due to this 'lag' issue i guess) and the other 1/2 are riddled with people that just want too hide with target finders, with bouncing betties and shock charges... very very annoying, and i dont know how much more of this game i can take before i sell it... i put modern warfare 3 in and had a great time last night, and that game has many many problems, but at least you can kill people :booty:

come on treyarch fix this game :cry:
 
I'm digging it.

while in the prone position, I shot down my first dragonfly drone during my first day of gameplay.

the replay cam is excellent as well. especially when it highlights the final kill for everyone to see!

ROFLMAO funny!!!

I agree...I played MW3 with a 2.0 K/D, and a 55% W/L. I can hardly stay even in BLOPs 2. I am really sensitive to lag, and it is absolutely worse (for me) than MW3 was. It's not consistent either. A few games I feel invincible...other games I can't even get a shot off.
 
The shitty maps, the janky spawn system, the generous hip firing / godlike SMGs, the return of fullblown quickscoping and the nearly impossible to avoid insta-kill killstreaks artificially make this game more "action packed".

I'm really not enjoying this entry...
 
Yeah im still trying to give it time to see if i like it more. Especially when i get ghost. I think when you prestige you have a token to keep 1 thing right? If so im keeping ghost! Takes too damn long to get up to 55.

But the thing about the game is, it seems very hard to get high killstreaks. I had a few games where i went like 9-0, or 16-0, but most games im getting 1-2 kills before i get killed back. Lag, and crappy spawn system really screws the game up. Plus a lot of the maps are pretty small. So if part of your team goes up forward and part stays back, you end up getting spawn swaps, and shot in the back. OH and did i mention lag yet? The worst part of the game. I cant even believe how bad it is, its right up there with gears of war 2 lag.
 
It'd be awesome if they allowed us to customize our appearance. Face paints, clothes. Maybe tattoos? Allow emblems to be worn as tattoos/face paints and on your clothes. I miss wearing a Ghillie suit.

Weren't you saying people should stop hating when they were complaining about lag at launch? Thank you for joining us :)
 
There are a few things I have a problem with. The only weapons that people seem to use and kill me are Pistols. I don't remember any really using pistols in the previous games. Seems like they are way over powered now.

Also the spawning is horid. Atleast 1-2 a game I die with terrible spawns.

I'm at about a 1.70 K/D. Pretty much my usual in COD games.

Pretty damn pointless if you ask me.
 
Im seriously considering just trading this game for halo 4 if anyone would actually do that. The lag is horrible, and its so annoying. Today alone i shot a guy as he turned to look at me and shot me back and i died. Another time i started to shoot a guy as he was throwing something and he somehow pulled out his gun and killed me. Im shooting people dead on and im dying. Its like i shoot first, i die first. I remember seeing a guy on the UAV coming my way, so i go prone and im aiming right at the edge of the door where he would come around. He comes around and shoots me dead on like he has aimbot or some hacks it was so fast. I couldnt even get a shot off. Of course if i go into theater and look at the footage of what happened, it shows them shooting first. Well thats not what im seeing on my screen. Im so sick of being killed and then seeing the person pop into view. I really dont understand why its so bad, i never had this kind of problem with blops 1. If the lag would get fixed i would probably like this game a lot. But its really making me question if its even worth my time, and if i am really having fun or not.

Battlefield Premium Edition for $25? The fourth DLC drop is right around the corner ;)
 
Just sold my copy on glyde for 45 bucks the lag compensation was just horrible to deal with and i didn't like the bs with the nuketown map,i will definitely not be going to any more cold midnight releases or buying any other cod game for that matter.I'm going to put that money towards far cry 3 hopefully it will be better the blops 2.
 
The amount of lag in this game is atrocious. It's unplayable. Either you're playing decently (meaning you have no lag) or you're getting completely owned (meaning you have so much lag that it's laughable in kill cams). I've also experienced issues with entire teams dropping out except one guy, only for that one guy to run around like a moron with no other players joining in to help in a drop-in, drop-out scenario. Balanced? My asshole it's balanced. God mode no scopes, one shot kills with an inaccurate/underpowered weapon, and maps that have no rhyme or reason.

It's, by far, the single WORST COD experience in the history of the franchise. That's saying something after living through the MW2 mess. Halo 4 is honestly a more balanced, mostly lag free, fun experience. I never thought I would say the phrase, "I'd rather be playing Halo."
 
Anyone else call in a UAV and then the game doesnt even give it to you? Happened to me twice now. Also sometimes you can hear the enemy player talk right after you kill them. LOL.
 
I have to agree with yall that when there is lag, it's bad. There are times i'll get the drop on someone, clearly shoot them first, and i'll still end up dying. At first i thought, well maybe I got hit with a head shot..until it kept on happening. They really need to fix this soon because when your not having to deal with that, its a fun game.

I called in an Escort Drone and it somehow got stuck under the map. The blades of the helicopter kept killing me everytime I spawned. Pretty weird but funny.

You didnt happen to make a video of that did you? :lol:
 
ouch, experienced lag and I got owned.

it's too bad the shortcomings of technology goes against player skills.

how wonderful if we could play on LANs.

It seems that lag affects skilled players the most. The better I get at a game the more I notice the lag and the more it pisses me off.

On a side note, can the season pass in BLOPS II (and Halo 4) be shared like you could do it with Gears 3 and MW3?
 
Today i started using the rocket launcher, the very last one you unlock. At least five times in the one match, i would shoot it, see and hear the thing shoot right before i got killed, but the missile wouldnt actually come out. So there is lag, if its doing that for my launcher, then i can only guess how bad the lag is for my regular guns.

Im at level 53, cant wait to get ghost, hopefully that will make my run n gun class better since it only works when you are moving. I wonder if you stay hidden using ghost if you just keep rotating your LS in circles... so you keep moving but you pretty much just circle around in the same spot.

Oh and for the 3rd time i called in a UAV and didnt get it. And for the 2nd time, i wanted to make a video of something funny, but when the video loaded, it wasnt the whole video... and cut the part i wanted out. -_-
 
Starting to get a little pissed at the campaign.

On the fourth level "Time and Fate" I have collected all three pieces of intel and 9/10 of the challenges including "locate evidence of CIA presence" yet my story line says "Menendez's compound search incomplete". Am I missing something here? I did not pick up the CIA file on my first pass through the level, I replayed the level to get it. Do I have to get the file on my first try for this to show as proof of CIA activity?
