Black Ops Wager Mode

I hate Commando. I think they said that Marathon isn't unlimited sprinting anymore, it's now a longer sprint time. I'm not sure though.

You're correct, it is a longer version of Extreme Conditioning from CoD4/WaW.

Well you haven't played with me Tobias, so how could you?

if thats a challenge then its denied, i suck at the game. =s
still i wouldn't mind seeing it for myself.

In-game currency is retarded. :|

I hate people like you. A very deep and passionate hate shared only by the idiot devs who allowed such a method to be playable.

Not really. I'm a sniper, and I'll just unlock sniper weapons. I don't want those silly assault rifles.

No, it wasn't a challenge. *pats Tobias* You should know by now how much time I spend on Xbox.

[COLOR="Red"]It's not so much the knifing I'm worried about. It's the fact that I play with Turtle Beaches on and when I'm not using ninja it feels like my character's sprinting around with fucking steel clown shoes. So yes, it hurts.

Also, knifing > shotgunning.[/COLOR]

Hey guys, Black Ops has dedicated servers!

http://uk.pc.ign.com/articles/111/1119736p1.html

...but server owners have to pay for them.


According to GameServers' pre-order page, ranked servers will cost $14.95 a month for an 18 max player limit. Discounts are offered for monthly prepays. Unranked servers will cost $0.99 a month per player [slot] up to maximum of 24. Teamspeak support will have an additional fee. Discounts will be offered for a 3, 6, and 12 month prepay.

15 a month is rediculously expensive for a web server. What would make hosting a game cost more? Or are they just offering a monopoly on them? <_<

The fact that Ninja has no practical counter in the game makes it over powered. No one can run that quietly. No one. But my real problem is the knifing lunge. I was hopeful when I heard knives were going to be secondaries in Ops. I am use to disappointment now. If I wanted to play with knives, I'd go play Halo. This is a FPS, not a First Person Knifer.

I can hear people with Ninja on... Its not IMPOSSIBLE, just get a Y cable and a pair of your favorite headphones. Dont use iPod earbuds, those things are shitty.

Is there going to be split-screen online multiplayer? And zombies also?

Considering past CoDs, no. Zombies is a no at least initially.

Zombies are the only reason anyone still plays WaW, besides being sick of Cod4 and MW2. There is literally no reason for them to omit zombies.

How do you differentiate between a non-Ninja 20 feet away and a Ninja behind you? If Sitrep Pro canceled out Ninja, it wouldn't be a problem.

Keep in mind that I'm not some random QQer who gets Ninja'd all the time. I abuse Ninja just as much as the next guy because I won't handicap myself. Doesn't make it any more balanced.

If it helps, some pre-orders list exclusive zombie maps for black ops.
And you need to remember treyarchs making this, not infinity ward/respawn, So its really not unlikely to not get zombie commies.

Well..it lists co-op maps now.

Sitrep pro does cancel out ninja. Ninja doesn't make your footsteps 100% silent, it just is .25 as quick. Sitrep pro makes friendly footsteps .25 (to you) and enemy footsteps 4x as loud. .25 x 4 = 1

I thought it doubled the sound. It should still be hard to differentiate between a Ninja user close up and a non Ninja user far away. I'll have to play with Sitrep Pro.

So its really not unlikely to not get zombie commies.

._. double negatives.

Treyarch developed WaW. Treyarch develops Ops. Therefore Zombies have a high chance of occurrence.

I dont differentiate, i just know when some papaya is sneaking up on me. I play FFA so everyone is my enemy <<
