Still waiting for the internet backlash so I can get this game cheaper. And not let Activision see any of my revenue.
(oh who am i kidding)
Yay! It's been too long.
Also, one of the most traumatising things in this game involved a teammate unleashng dogs on spider (who willingly wanted to be on the other team) and just hearing constant yelps over the course of a few minutes
BTW, I tested the Reflex vs Red Dot for differing magnification, and came to the conclusion that they are identical.
I started up a private game, parked myself in the exact same spot (a corner, so there would be no errors in spacing) and aimed at the same circular object with both scopes on the same gun, using a certain reticle to use as a measuring aid.
No difference, so I think we can safely say this one is Myth Busted.

Sev: Your gameplay is the most heavily yomi based around. Usually you look for characters that allow you to force guessing situations for big dmg. Even if the guess is mathematically nowhere near in your favor lol. You're happiest when you have either a 50/50, 33/33/33 or even a 75/25 situation to go crazy with. And you will take big risks to force those situations to come up.
Nuketown is a novel idea that turned out to make for a shitty map.
coolest concept, worst map
do they have to make a shipment for every game contractually or something
Some of us enjoy the tiny maps. Nuketown is a blast. (See what I did there?)
Although I would never play it with 18 people. That sounds pretty ridiculous, and not in a good way.
Whenever nuke town comes up I just grab my assault rifle of choice and lay prone next to a building and camp one of the exits of the building across from me. Doing the whole "run and die" thing is far too frustrating on that map.
I wish I could take a photo of mine, it's a round black kitty face on a white square with yellow eyes and a pink nose.

I saw my first swastika emblem online today. My friend remarked how surprising it was that it took this long. Also saw one that had a horse with a big dong peeing on a guy...or maybe something else. I just couldn't report him, because he obviously put a lot of work into it.
The british Direct2Drive has an offer that lasts until tomorrow where you can get 25% any game, including CODBLOPS.
I just saw that and was coming here to ask about it, It comes out to 48$ CAD on the UK site as opposed to 59.99 everywhere else..anyone know if there's any downside to buying a UK version? I.e will it try to default my into UK Servers or anything like that?
Do you keep anything when you prestige? Like camo and face paint?
You only keep the things related to your gamercard. So icons and backgrounds. If you have a lot of CP before your next prestige, I advise to spend it all on clipart and backgrounds
Oh, lifetime challenges also stick. Other than that: tabula rasa.

Had no problem myself buying it in the USA from the UK site. Showed servers all over.

Apparently retcile colours also carry over. So does the the emblem and clan tag option on every gun you bought them for.

That's good to know, I haven't had the time to level my prestige up to the point where I can check for myself. But only reticule colours and not shapes? Could it be a bug that colour doesn't get reset? Anyway, doesn't really matter because those upgrades cost next to nothing.
I was in a lobby that kept voting for Nuketown so I left it. I did get the Shotgun Psychopath contract done running around with the SPAS though and that felt good. Nuketown can be super frustrating especially when people are just camping and not playing domination.
The first game the guy on the other team was sniping and got 40+ kills and before was talking about he was going to poop on us and made a pooping noise at the end even though we won so I started arguing with him, because fuck him, and then we were on the same team and combined for close to 80 kills and it was good.
How do you super camp Nuketown? As a sniper? And get 40 kills? Unless the enemy is terribad?

He was prone behind the bomb shelter that is near the spawn of C side.

There doesn't appear to be a way to do this on a ranked server.

Thats pretty damn awesome.
botp
And yet there so many people I see in the game with just one layer filled. It makes me sad.
Or they use something boring like skulls or the "FAIL" one.

I'm on the 360, gamertag is Sagaxus. I am incredibly sexy and also going to play in about 15 minutes. Join me if you are pro enough to handle it.
Can I expect to be able to make this?

Give it time. A long time, their servers are abit overloaded.
Mine took about 5 hours to finaly appear.

Mine took a long time during the week and I'm sure they're getting a lot more on the weekend as I had one I rendered at 1 and it's still not up.

so, be cautious on pubs if you value your exp or shit
pcdev on twitter (apparently blackops' pc rep according to vahn) is aware of it apparently though, so hopefully it will get fixed in the next patch
