Yea I said last night my biggest worry with BLOPS 2 is there might be too much shite going on.

Airhogs flying around. Tank dogs and rc cars. Killstreaks all at the same time???

So what's the difference between a perk and a specialization? I see specialization as a perk, just fewer of them to choose from. And once you had squad specializations, you essentially had four perks.

There has been a version of this in every COD. I never saw the hate for it. Adjust your game and find something (like blackbird) that could still see them.

Isn't Ghost only going to work now if you are moving? If you camp, you're visible to UAV?

Yep. Go to that link BT posted, and that's the description.

Cannot be detected by enemy UAV's while moving.

Gotta admit Treyarch works harder to balance the experience...now, if they could create a lag-free game on PS3.....

Is the PS3 just that hard to work with? I know they still can't figure out how to get the Skryim DLC to you guys.

I haven't looked at the link yet, but they wil likely have a "pro" perk that will make it for everything like the last BLOPS. Maybe not though. It doesn't bother me. I rarely stay still when playing

Part of the reason for our poor KD. well, that and I just suck. Bad combo. Running around like crazy while you can't shoot for shite. I'm just bait pretty much

I knew someone was going to bring up BF3. Look, just because something is in BF3 doesn't mean I'm automatically all for it.

However, I do like that there are few specializations and that you only get one a soldier and to use them to the fullest you have to work together. The specializations don't really seem that important to your play style. That's not the case in CoD...

Mine has always been over a 1.0 in every game. I will never have a 2 or 3. I know that. I play hardcore more so I can spray and pray and get a few kills. I do die easier too, but overall have more kills than deaths so I am good with that.

I guess that's part of my deal. I don't have great aim. I play Core. So 7/10 times I get the first 2-3 hits on someone and they end up getting me with a headshot or something. My aim sucks. I can hit you. Just in the legs and chest

Maybe I'd do better in hardcore

I seem to remember people camping even moreso than normal in hardcore tho. Not like moving from one spot to another in the same area. Like I'm setting up shop behind this corner and not moving the entire game.

Well, there's not many other games out there to compare...so, by default, I had little choice.

Maybe not, but they certainly can contribute to a negative experience. RPG spam, anyone?

Bottom line, certain types of people will find whatever shitty tactic they can and exploit it no matter what they play. It will be present in every multiplayer. It's the developers' responsibility to limit how much the exploits affect everyone else's experience. IMO the Pick 10 system looks like a good start to returning balance to CoD.

Playing around with the Pick 10 is crazy. I freaked out when I was able to equip 3 attachments to my primary weapon and added "tri-bolt" to my crossbow. Added my perks and went to pick my lethal equipment, and whoops, out of points.

In TDM camping was bad and a game rarely even hit 7500, but in games where there was an objective, S&D, Demo, HQ...people seemed to move a lot more.

Yeah, I'm not trying to act like BF3 didn't have shitty moments. USAS frag ammo, dart glitch...that was frustrating. But rocket spamming was only bad because they made an assignment for one of the best weapons in the game a rocket assignment (ACR). It's probably as balanced as it will get right now. Only took 9 months.

This isn't a BF3 thread...I am not trying to derail. I was just bitching about perks. But come to think of it, doesn't Black Ops have a barebones mode?

How do you use it? I can see it but it just shows the available slots, not the options to fill those slots. I'm on work pc tho so maybe that's it.
