I didn't see any other threads on this game, so I'm starting one. If you guys have the game, what do you think of it? I played last night for maybe 3 or 4 hours and it is awesome! There are some subtle differences that I noticed from MW2 such as much more well thought out maps, as well as increased sniping simplicity. There were some things however that I thought were different but I still could not put my finger on exactly what the difference was.

I had planned on playing campaign last night, and thought, "What the hell, I'll try multiplaying for a few games." Well, I played it for all of the 3-4 hours. It was incredible. The maps are great. They make it very possible for gamers of all different styles (submachine gun and snipers alike) to play, as each level has tight quarters as well as crow's nests for sniping. And the remote control explosive car?! That thing is the SHIT.

One thing I thought that was different is that there is not as much background sound effects. I'm gonna have to turn on MW2 again but it seems to me that maybe there was some background music at all times or something to that effect?

For those of you that have played the two major platforms, MW2 and Black Ops, which do you think is better thus far? I'm going to say that Black Ops has better multiplayer online gameplay that does MW2, and there are not so many major killstreaks which had a tendency to make MW2 not quite as fair at times (i.e. there was one game that a guy nuked the map and the most kills that anybody else had was 4, which meant he got 21 more kills, and ZERO deaths, before anybody else). Black Ops levels the playing field.

Won't be able to tell until I get Black Ops, which will be later on this week.

But MW2 definitely was not up to expectations. Too many tiny faults to really enjoy the game (which MW1 did not have).

List of reason why MW2 was unenjoyable at times

1) Tactical Insertions --> Nuke Boosting --> FFA Unplayable

2) Commando-Lightweight-Marathon Class

3) UMP45 was too overpowered, without question the best gun in the game, which sucks because that's what everyone was using

4) Overpowered killstreaks

5) Host migration errors

If Black Ops isn't a better game than MW2 it will be a huge dissapointment.

Marathon and lightweight prevailed into Black Ops, which I actually appreciated, but to each his own. Funny thing is, I don't think I ever once used the UMP45, I always used the Barrett and the SCAR, which sufficed in my gameplay.

Black Ops will be the ONLY CoD game I will buy. I'm not a fan of FPS on a console (I'm old school), but this game looks freakin' sweet.

I have no problem with Marathon (especially when it's nerfed in Black Ops) and Lightweight, but combining them with Commando led to some severe retardation.

Oh, and I left out one thing on the list

6) Quick Scoping - I know it's not a war sim, but seriously it's fucking retarded that you can aim down the sights of a heavy sniper rifle and fire in less than a second, and do it accurately I might add.

The quick aim and the commando modes were both a bit ridiculous and completely destroyed the "level playing field" that game producers are looking for. That is certainly one thing that I noticed is that this game seems a lot more realistic in regards to what you can do with the person.

Is that CounterStrike? MY GOD I used to play that game when I was young (old school), and yes that is a ridiculously amazing game. I hope that you do give Black Ops a chance tho, because it is pretty frickin good. And the multiplayer is an upgrade from CS, believe it or not.
