Call of Duty 7: Black OPs

[Atom Smash40]

You know why I think the killstreaks aren't going to be that much of a problem in BO? They've said kills from killstreaks don't add to other killstreaks. This is most of the problem in MW2; 9 times out of 10 when I got a Predator I could then get a Harrier and then get a Chopper Gunner/AC-130.

ORDERED.

[H2PM]

Im going to try and not prestige this game.

Thats what I said with MW2, went to 57 5th, before I switched accounts.

Im not prestiging with this account, on MW2, either.

[Nadril]

I never understood why people prestiged. If I'm spending a ton of time to finally get [cabbage] unlocked I don't want to lose it all for a shiny emblem.

[TheValeyard]

There was a point in WaW/MW2 as you got the extra class slots and challenges, and I imagine that will be the same for Black Ops.

[H2PM]

The 5 default class slots, or 4?, are just fine with me.

 

If I needed to switch out something, I'll do it in the intermissions.

[Skully]

I never understood why people prestiged. If I'm spending a ton of time to finally get [cabbage] unlocked I don't want to lose it all for a shiny emblem.

Idk about other people, but I personally found it fun to unlock [cabbage] and have stuff to work towards, and get a bit more bored with the lack of things to do at 10th with everything completed.

I think it refreshed the game a little bit and gives me something to work towards again.

Im just like that, i think its fun to redo everything and focus on a different area of the game each prestige.

[sarg1010]

I'll probably prestige twice, just to unlock any possible challenges, and the extra slots. I'm 2nd prestige on MW2, and have been debating whether or not to prestige again for the extra slots... But then I'd give up Fall on my M16 :sad: [cabbage] took forever to get. So I guess I won't.

This is the main reason why prestige was added to the game, and the main reason I did it.

Just saw this on IGN about the dedicated servers to come out for black ops.

 

Black Ops Dedicated Servers Come With a Catch

 

Call of Duty: Black Ops for PC will ship with dedicated server support this November, but there's a catch if you want to run your own server.

 

Activision and Treyarch studios announced GameServers.com will be the exclusive dedicated server provider when the game launches.

 

"We are extremely excited about this unprecedented relationship with Activision to offer dedicated servers exclusively for Black Ops", said GameServers CEO David Aninowsky. "We are placing a great amount of pressure on ourselves to ensure that we exceed any and all expectations."

 

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 up to maximum of 24. Teamspeak support will have an additional fee. Discounts will be offered for a 3, 6, and 12 month prepay.

 

Treyarch Community Manager Josh Olin said this partnership will provide high-quality private servers at an affordable rate for the game and re-emphasized Treyarch-hosted dedicated servers will remain free.

 

"If players want to run a dedicated Ranked or Unranked server on the PC, they will have to rent one through GameServers," Olin told IGN. "Treyarch will be providing a fleet of 'Day-1 Servers' (through GameServers) which will be up and operational on November 9th.

 

"Nobody will have to rent a dedicated server through GameServers in order to play the game," says Olin. "But for anybody who wants to run their own server, it will be run from GameServers.com."

 

Olin added that this partnership adds the advantage of much more effective anti-cheating and hacking moderation.

 

"If you rent a server, you will still have the ability to Kick, Ban, and Configure it the way you see fit," Olin added. "Of course Ranked servers will have some set configurations that can't be messed with; but you will still have the power to administrate your servers as a customer of GameServers."

 

Call of Duty: Black Ops ships for PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3 on November 9.

Seriously...?

[Dizzle229]

Was that an "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!?!" seriously, or a "So what?" seriously?

[Albel]

Was that an "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!?!" seriously, or a "So what?" seriously?

Im going to guess the first one...

[Nadril]

Price isn't that bad for servers really.

 

As long as you can customize the servers fine and take advantage of what a dedicated server gives you I have no problem with it.

Ive never played any games like black ops on the PC, so I didnt know if there was a price for servers.

Well yeah of course. People don't give away dedicated servers for free. Granted you could host it on your own server but not many people do that.

this. i've played halo for PC where people paid upwards of $25/mo to have a lag-free, anti-boom, "unhackable" server.

[H2PM]

I think its going to be funny for the oblivious dolts that will end up paying for team speak, when theres Vent and skype...

 

Oh Activison you capitalist pig...

[Skully]

I hope there is a real sniper in this game.

I didn't collect all that information. Upon reading it though, I'm definitely going to have to consider this to be one of the best FPS's to be released in the past two years, if it pans out correctly.

[Brad25891]

Price isn't that bad for servers really.

 

As long as you can customize the servers fine and take advantage of what a dedicated server gives you I have no problem with it.

 

I think they will probably preset the ranked dedicated servers to default rules (Like the MW2 game list) and then hopefully let you do pretty much anything (within reason) with the unranked. Either way I'm happy with the way this game is going. Also, a ranked server only costs as much as world of warcraft, so that's not too much of a hit really is it? Especially to well developed clans and communities.

Oh man I'm excited for the RC car derbys
