Multi Call of Duty: Black Ops

For anyone interested Direct2Drive has the PC version of Black Ops for $44. Use the promo code "bigsavings"

Came out to $48 after tax for me. It's a Steamworks title so you can activate through Steam using the key D2D sends. Not sure how long this offer will last so act fast.

Lol no need to avoid this thread, we're not reaaaaaally spoiling anything.
And yeah a saw a video of the nerfed quickscoping... It's ridiculous :(
Think I might just not play the game a lot at all... Sniping was my favourite thing to do in CoD and now it's rubbish. It was the only thing I preferred about CoD to Halo. :(

Sniping its self is more then just quickscoping and if you think that sniping has been ruined jut because you can't then I think are mistaken. This just makes it more of a challenge and in the end there will be no 11 year old kids who start telling you how they just raped you and that you have no skills after they missed 20 times before actually hitting you.....God I hate it when people whine about how COD is ruined now that there is no quick-scoping

I know snipings more than that, but I prefer Halo for that sort of sniping. Halo sniping is a lot harder and I find it a lot more fun. However I find quickscoping in CoD really fun because it takes more skill than regular sniping in CoD.

I'm not the sort of guy to complain when people hardscope, I don't care, I just like to quickscope myself and think the removal of it is stupid. All the people who say "but people moan at me when I don't quickscope" - Toggle Mute was invented for a reason. I mute those sort of people :)
 
Just got home from a long day of work.

Time to play some black ops :D
 
The G11 is the only one that can get that scope. The other assault rifles can get an infrared scope, but not the sniper scope.
 
Halo sniping is harder? Lol wtf? The bullets go perfectly straight all the time no matter what in halo how is it harder other than that it takes 50 shots to kill someone with any gun.

I'll actually agree in saying that it's harder in Halo (I was a great sniper in Halo 2 but just can't seem to hit anything in 3 or Reach) while COD sniping is a piece of cake for me - usually always hit on my first attempt/shot

On another note: I've officially migrated from a Halo fan to a COD fan I'm pretty sure - played Halo: Reach for about 2 weeks and then just gave up/lost interest. It's probably because I'm much better in COD....nah
 
I just gave up on Halo Reach. The more I played, the more I realized it was just Halo 3 with armor abilities.

D2D is available outside the US, right?

I'm in Aus and $44 is about a 60% off deal. So I'd love to take it up :D

EDI: Nevermind, it works. I won't be able to pre-load, but I saved heaps. I could kiss you, x3.
 
I wish I had 48 bucks to buy it right now before I h ave to pay full price when it comes out :(.

I think Reach will get better a few weeks after Black Ops is out.

Anyhoo, you've been playing online yeah? Has your copy got SSv1 or SSv2? I saw that 2 versions got uploaded at once, T.Ps and someone elses, I downloaded the one that wasn't T.P and I have SSv1...

I downloaded TPs which was SSv1 and I patched it with the SSv2 files.
Some uploaders uploaded TPs but with the patch already. But the angles are the same for both versions so they are identical and both the same.

I love playing gun game, until everyone reaches the sniper point. Then it becomes a uber camp fest. But it is still fun. My lack of skill with the ballistic knife has cost me winning twice already.

That's weird :S
I'll probably wait for verification to play it online.
Abgx FINALLY got updated... xD
Only took a year.
 
Ehh verification isn't really needed for this game, the angle are what a good rip would be. 0,0,0,1 I think it was. But yeah be on the safer side and wait.
