Re: Uprising DLC on the PS3 = May 16th!

Nuke town is another factor now too, if they want it in rotation why not do what MW3 did and make it a compulsory download. 1 less pool of players.

Now we have people deleting the map to avoid playing it.

I'd delete it myself but know I'll end up shooting myself in the foot and be paired up with a smaller pool.

If a DLC is all zombies then it would never affect match making anyway. And I don't think they'll ever include zombie only DLC as people with season pass would riot.

Problem with DLC is it divides up the players, not just into 1 or 2 categories, but with 4 drops there's loads of pools. Some players might only get DLC 1, someone might get 1&2, someone else only 3&4 etc etc. people doing this will get screwed with lag as they will be paired with others having the same packs, I can almost guarantee it. (I think that's show it works)

The game lags like hell anyway, but I think it'll be worse for guys with only a handful of DLC drops.

I'm no expert, but my opinion on DLC is this....

If you buy 1, you might as well buy all of them.

Surely if you only have 1 DLC pack out of 2,3 or 4 packs, your limiting the pool of players you can be matched with.

So if I was you, I'd either buy the new ones, or delete pack 1.

But that's just me and my opinion.

the new maps are lame, i've been playing them a bit on xbox and they dont seem to have much flow. The firing range re-skin is fine, but the spawns are truly flawed.

the zombies map on alcatraz is a lot of fun, and thats pretty much the only reason i'l be purchasing this DLC.

Zombies fans will love it!!

Re: Tag Boosting, is it wrong?

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 10 Apr 2013 14:47:11 GMT

Lol, it's even worse if the people collecting the tags are the ones doin most of the killing too.

Party of 4 last night, me and lemon were murdering the opposition, picking up our own tags, and taking our other 2 party members tags too. He had 40 tags and I had about 37. Both of us were using UAV, CUAV, VSAT. All it takes is one VSAT from either, and then the other is practically guaranteed it. It's good tactics IMO, a smart way to play the game and take advantage of the stupidly easy point system that KC has.

If we were running hardline it would have been insane.

Re: C4 needs to be nerfed.

donotreply@activision.com — Wed, 10 Apr 2013 07:43:13 GMT

Bollocks!!!

C4 in this game is shite compared to MW3. (Different makers I know).

You think it's OP? Lets see how u like it in MW3, blast radius is much larger + blast shield was almost useless.

I'm BO2 u have a less effective C4 pack and a miracle perk called flak jacket which shrugs of most explosives with relative ease.

Getting bitched by people's lethals and equipment? Do what I do, run tac mask and flak like I do 99% of the time.

Only the 4 map packs.

Re: I have finally created some YouTube content and would like your advice and thoughts

donotreply@activision.com — Tue, 09 Apr 2013 08:21:30 GMT

I don't like being negative about other people's hardwork, but in all honesty I found it boring and turned off the video after a couple of minutes.

I understand not all youtube gameplays have to be fast paced killfests, but I found it a bit slow and it failed to grab my attention from the start.

The team chat is a good idea, however I would of thought it would have been more relevant in a game mode such as HQ / Hardpoint where tactics are essential, especially against a good team.

I'd like to see you try replicate this team chat in some league play Hardpoint. Just an idea

According to some it's an issue with the PS3 firmware. There's a few posts earlier in the thread which explain it.

Just hope it's rectified soon.

Re: Is your game turning into a complete jitterfest after a host migration?

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 08 Apr 2013 18:06:29 GMT

Its funny that 60% of the time it puts me host for games, and it plays real bad for me only. Then when I don't get picked host, it plays good right up until the host rage quits and I suffer by either resuming as host, or in a jitterfest. Can't win. :/

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 08 Apr 2013 18:03:58 GMT

Yeah I used to disable DLC for cods in the past. I'll definitely give it a try.

Only thing is I'm doing a wee race to level 55 using the peacekeeper only lmao.

Gonna be tricky without it ha ha.

Exactly, you've got it easy ;)

Damn, maybe should try that.

I do like the DLC tho. Might have to make the sacrifice.

God I'd take that any day in comparison to this torture! :)

Re: Is your game turning into a complete jitterfest after a host migration?

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 08 Apr 2013 17:34:32 GMT

I was kicking myself for not having my PVR on, it was a downright disgrace. I didn't have it on yesterday either :(

I've not had much enjoyment out of the game of late, and when I do start to think the game isn't ******* me over, It gives me a BS host migration.

Half the deaths I suffered earlier I didn't see due to freezing. The rest of the time i was (from my perspective) making contact with a jittering target, while jittering myself. Needless to say most of those encounters I lost.

So frustrating, pad was close to going into the table again lol

Is your game turning into a complete jitterfest after a host migration?

donotreply@activision.com — Mon, 08 Apr 2013 17:15:06 GMT

Just signed on, played KC, going fine, was 11-3, cheeky kill on some geezer, he rage quits, new host. (My thoughts at the time "FFS, here we go again")

Now the game is early doors, 2-3 mins gone by, and for the next 7 minutes it lagged, and froze, and jittered. I can't stand it, nothing frustrates me more.

It did this after every host migration yesterday apart from once (when it chose me to host lol).

This never happened before, just noticed it last few days.

Anyone else noticing these killer host migrations?

The recent vids about the hacks on BO2 are a worry, but this for me is a complete game breaker. The hacks currently only seem to be affecting some S&D lobbies, I've noticed these dodgy host migrations on different game modes. And it's not just me, this is experienced by my party too when I've not been solo.

Perhaps it's only happening to us? Would be nice to know.

What's with all the C4s along the bottom of the screen? Theatre mode playing up or hack?
