Re: LagComp Video Discussion: BlackOps2 Edition

Whoa. This thread still exists? Deng. Maccabi, I don't know how you do it, man.

Not trying to derail the thread or anything. But having stopped playing this game since the first map pack and recently coming back, I didn't seem to have very many problems. Game still plays pretty smooth for me.

I wonder if self-expectations are getting in the way of reality for some of the self entitled(hardcore/non casual) gamers.

note: inb4 "oh you are probably being given an advantage from lag comp" (assuming people still use that terminology, I've been playing other games like League and Bioshock).

PLEASE! Fix the "Joining Session in Progress" Window of DOOM!!

That's all really. It's just as bad as getting a frozen screen. I shouldn't have to dashboard to get rid of it. I used to be able to accept a new invite and it would go away but now it just repeats itself. Out of all the things I would rather have fixed right now. This would be very nice as a start.

This has nothing to do with how well you do with the gun specifically. It's about how the guns work in general. Also headshots aren't an indicator that the guns work fine.

I have no problem with how the ADS is. If they make the gun more effective in the killing aspect(which is what matters) then you wouldn't need to care about how fast the ADS is. I use Adjustable Stock for my LMGs and even when I am fully aimed at a target it makes no difference when I still get outshot by weapons that are outside their effective range but in my guns effective range.

The LMG is a Mid-Long range weapon. It shouldn't take as many bullets to kill at it's effective range as an SMG in it's effective range.

You mean videos of private matches where there is no latency? Yea I am just going to keep saying that it takes more than 5 shots at range because added latency shows me 5+ hitmarkers at range without the silencer.

Are you trying to call me a liar?

Re: LMGs need a buff??

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 19 Feb 2013 22:38:16 GMT

That isn't the point. Just because you got them diamond doesn't mean you didn't have any trouble getting them gold. It's just an observation that the LMGs could be a bit stronger.

Re: LMGs need a buff??

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 19 Feb 2013 22:24:47 GMT

I wish as it was now a 5 shot kill at range. I count my hitmarkers and I get around 6-8 and that is at a distance much shorter. For example in the map Standoff. It can take me around 6-8 hits to kill a guy from the tank to the barn. And that is with a clear view of the guy. I get killed much faster from ARs and SMGs.

Re: LMGs need a buff??

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 19 Feb 2013 22:13:03 GMT

I disagree. 3-4 hits should be the max at range. Up close it should take 2-3 bullets. It takes 4-6 at range as of now at range which is terrible.

Well in HC there is no difference so buffing them wouldn't make them OP. I'm talking about Core. Which it really does need a buff/damage drop off removed.

LMGs need a buff??

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 19 Feb 2013 21:57:05 GMT

IMO they need a slight damage buff. Or maybe just remove the damage drop like they did in MW3. When IW did that it made the LMGs usable again. It didn't make them OP just more of a level playing field.

How the LMGs are now, they take around 4 registered hits(hitmarkers) to get a kill at range. I feel that is a little unnecessary since the gun is heavy, you have less distance when running, reload times are very long, with/without grip the gun jumps around even when burst firing, and ADSing takes longer than every other gun.

I am trying to get the LSW gold and after extensive use I feel that is one of the LMGs that needs the damage drop off removed. It takes 6-8 hits at range when suppressor is applied and to me that shouldn't be happening with the LMGs.

What do you guys think?

Re: Please Nerf The PeaceKeeper

donotreply@activision.com — Sun, 03 Feb 2013 15:38:03 GMT

No. It's a 4 shot kill and that is enough to even say it's pretty weak. It's a good gun. But just because everyone is using does not mean it is OP. It's a new DLC weapon. The first of its kind fo COD. You should take part in that. It's going to go down in history. I just know it!

Re: Does Treyarch have any intentions to acknowledge and address the lag issues?

Daemonomic. Do you hardstyle shuffle by any chance. Your music choice reminds me of Hardstyle.

Re: Throttling connection is cheating but playing cheap isn't?

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 30 Jan 2013 19:04:37 GMT

I don't even know if throttling works to give you any "unfair" advantage. I played FFA with a 4 bar and a couple kids had 3 bars. I was listening to a youtube video while playing and this one kid running around with a 3 bar merked the whole lobby getting to 24 kills next being 8 kills on the roster. I couldn't hit this kid if my life depended on it. And his 870 with long barrel & laser sight killed me from very mid range distances even though I had the drop.

I immediately turned off youtube and put my computer to sleep. It helped me 0% of the time.

As for playing cheap. It's being cheap. You can't really ban them for being cheap. That isn't cheating so it's not breaking any rules. Maybe personal rules for you but you have only the power of avoiding them.

Re: New TU just hit. How's your Experience now?

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 26 Jan 2013 21:20:13 GMT

BTW. Just had my first case of "freezing" or I guess getting stuck in a black screen with the version number or whatever at the top right. Had to hard reset my xbox to fix it. Only happened when I was host though. Could that be why?

Re: New TU just hit. How's your Experience now?

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 26 Jan 2013 19:48:04 GMT

Well maybe they just haven't found a fix for it yet? I'll assume the positive side of why.

Re: New TU just hit. How's your Experience now?

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 26 Jan 2013 18:45:53 GMT

Did anyone notice this in the list of things:

Score and points are no longer awarded if a player destroys their own turret in Hardcore FFA.

Does this refer to private HC FFA games?? Or is this somehow a hint to bringing back HC FFA??

Re: New TU just hit. How's your Experience now?

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 26 Jan 2013 17:19:40 GMT

Did you test this in other gametypes? Try it in a private lobby. See if it still happens against bots

Re: A Few Bugs After Updating

donotreply@activision.com — Sat, 26 Jan 2013 17:07:59 GMT

For the first two. It could be in preparation for the DLC. New SMG so new unlock. Not 100% sure though. Same with the emblem too.

As for the lightning strike. I haven't used it yet so I can't say much on that.
