COD Black Ops

In my absence I missed all the black ops talk (if there was any).
So did anyone play it?
I loved the story, very well written.

Played at my friend's house. The story was very well done, but the rest was trash, in my opinion (i have harsh opinions tonight)

I play it some, although I play more BC2. The story was pretty good, but live is ok; however much better than MW2 (not saying much).

All around better then MW2, IW really showed how bad they've gotten writing wise in that came. Black Ops story line though i thought was very well done, nothing really new but it drew me in more than MW2. Multiplayer is fantastic as well in Black Ops, i simply love everything you can do in it and i think the maps are better than MW2 also.

By chance are there any AUG's, L85's or FAMAS' in the new black ops?

The AUG and FA MAS (full auto now) are in it, both single and multiplayer. The L85 sadly is not but, it's predecessor the EM2 (listed as just Enfield) is in the game so it's pretty close to having an L85.

OK, the local 12 year olds have been drooling at those in the shop. They're been asking about the enfield. I thought they meant like the Mk4 or something. Never would have guessed they want an EM2. leave it to COD to blow pre production rifles out of proportion.

And is there some weird Mp5? Some kid was trying to describe it. it sounded like a Mp5K with a verticle grip. So maybe a railed Mp5K?

Its funny how CoD affects my day to day life .

Haha wow that just made my day. Have they asked the G11 yet? That'd be icing on the cake of CoD based stupidity.

Yeah there's an MP5K which looks like this.

Bad Company 2 (and soon BC Vietnam) > all

BC2 is pretty good, definitely better than the single player for MW2. Haven't gotten around to playing it's multiplay yet. Funny since i've had the game since mid summer or so.

Multiplayer is great on BC2, but it's a b*tch to level up and unlock. I've been playing a couple weeks and I'm like level 16. If it were CoD I'd be at least in the 30s. If you want to unlock something, you have to play as that class and get a certain amount of points in it. So if I wanted to unlock a new sniper rifle I'd have to play as recon and earn beaucoup points.

That's stupid. I love how Black Ops as eliminated the need to even get accomplishments to upgrade your weapons. It's smooth and easy and takes away me having to noob tube people to master a gun.

A little OT but has anyone played Reach online? I'm just wondering if the players have gotten any more mature since Halo 3. Not going to drop $100 on a wireless adapter, or run 50ft of LAN cable through my house, or pay Microsoft to play online just to find out.

Yeah but once you get to level 55 or whatever, in like 5 days, it's boring as heII. I like BC2 because it's squad-based and actually takes work, instead of just killing people to level up. And after every round, you get points for all the awards you earned during the round, so if you got a silver star for a weapon then you get like 1000 extra points.

A lot of freshmen at my school are talking about it, so I doubt it.

Mhmm i may have to give BC 2 a try online one of these days.

Yeah figured there were still kids playing Halo. I stopped playing Halo 3 online when i had one to many 12 year olds say eff you to me for kicking their butts or for no reason except just being there trying to enjoy playing a game.

I occasionally play reach, but I have mostly stopped playing video games in general. I say it is a good game if you like the halo series. I don't talk to people on live as much as I used to, because I "scare them".(and I no longer have a mic) Apparently It is not normal at 14 to have a deep voice. So mostly if I do, I talk to the same people. I don't ever plan on getting Black Ops because 1. I don't really like Call of Duty anymore. 2. That is all kids at my school talk about. Z0MG Y0U D0NT WaNtZ BlAK 0PZ?!?!?!

It's what made me get a 360 again. Funny since i got a 360 the day Halo 3 came out just that game and then got one again for Reach. I thought Reach would with them going back in time but i thought it had a solid story line, way better then ODST.

When you got reach did you get the new 360? If so, it has built in wifi adapter.

No i traded my KWA with a friend for his older 360. Kinda regret it now that i'm planning on getting back into airsoft in the new year but i just picked up a sweet new loadout so i'm happy.

hey Iliveforthis im starting a new team so when you get back in lemme know but i kinda hate 360s now ever since my first rrod then i got my second xbox within 2 weeks had rrod sent it in took 1 month to fix and get back 4 days later rrod again

i actually really don't like reach..then again ive never really liked halo.....

Will do, i'll be looking for new places to play since the two groups i was with are kinda no longer around.

Yeah 360's are really touch and go, my old that i sold to buy the KWA (lol) RROD on me once. That and the whole paying to play thing turned me off to 360's so i got a 250GB PS3 back in May.

The beautiful red ring of joy... the one that lets me laugh at small children for not opting for a custom gaming computer... 'tis a wonderful thing.

My brother built it, and here's a direct paste from a gaming forum he's on (if you're reading this brudduh, don't ask how I know) ::
AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+
MSI K9A-Platinum (MS-7280)
3GB OCZ DDR2 @800MHz
Diamond HD 4890 1GB GDDR5
Ultra 700 Watt PSU
Windows 7 Professional (x64)

Pretty sure it's current... If anything it would be +1gb RAM or different brand of it. It isn't THE best but it gets sh*t done, and wonderfully. Monitor is a 24" Samsung T240HD.
