The most serious problem with this game at the moment is the dodgy spawn system imo. On Nuke town there's me and 3 friends running around in one of the gardens behind the houses, but the enemy still spawns in the same garden, or in the little fenced in patch behind the garden.

Yep, that's why it's best to try to not go in the gardens unless you're camping there or you've just spawned. Otherwise, get to the house/garage or the other side of the map in the houses front garden.

honestly call me a camper all you want but in that map that spawn system is so messed that i juts sit in a corner and crouch and pick people off.

That's the only way to not get killed on that map...or just sit on the top floor of the house, either at the entrance or window, and just pick people off that way.

I've been beasting on nuke town lately and that's pretty much what I do. I put a claymore in the middle of the two entrances to the top floor so if anyone just follishly runs in they get blown up, then I just stay in the room picking people off out the window, occasionally running to the balcony in the back garden to kill people spawning there.

Managed to go 25-6 earlier so it's not a bad tactic :D

Finished COD veteran last night.

Difficulty - Same as MW2 for the most part. Had a few more parts that made me think, but it was no biggie and nothing huge. If you completed MW2 then this should be about the same

Story - Was stupid and saw it from a mile away. So much for a twist. Meh, could be better, but haven't seen a decent COD story since MW.

Game seems to be doing the same thing for that MW2 did for me. Was fun for the first 20-30 hours then it was just blah. Been having fun in MP, which is great so I'll see how long that lasts.

Still, though same old **** from the past 3 games with some new additions. Nothing ground breaking, nor nothing warranting a $60 buy.

I want to ask a question which is totally ****ing me off regarding the game.

I have Ghost as one of the perks. This allegedly stops you from getting attacked by air support, HOWEVER, heli's and what not mince me in every game. Does anyone else have this problem?

This is a glitch that they will fix, right?

Has anyone ever had people talking crap online? As in, "I'm better than you. You're bad!" It almost always ends in the same way. They talk smack for doing well in one TDM game and leave once you start owning them. Funny thing is, all the crap talkers have poor ratios (e.g. less than 1.2).

Yeah if it's the Pro version you got, standard it's just invisibility to the Spy Plane.

Oh, what?

Damn, and here was me thinking that standard hid you from everything. I have to go do those challenges now. ;)

I keep my mic off unless I'm playing with friends or family. Even then, I mute everyone that I don't know.

This was the case when I used to play MW1 and MW2 on the 360. Still reigns true now that I play Black Ops on the PS3.

definitely an improvement in terms of single player campaign, the MP is OK, a little too short range for my liking. i'd like the maps to be more open, like they had for COD3. overall Black Ops is one of the more memorable CODs, though, mostly because of the 1960's setting, the fantastic presentation, the characters, the music etc. Heck i think i'm in love with Frank Woods, he's one of the better characters we've had in a game recently!

So the usual then, game comes out, everyone jizzes their pants and a week later everyone is complaining about how broke the new COD is? rofl.gif

Basically. I am glad I held off on purchasing it, as I knew this was going to happen. Horrible spawn positions for enemies in some maps and some maps just suck (Jungle). No CoD will ever beat MW1.

And the game is still getting a lot of praise for its core balance and gameplay, at least people complain about actual broken stuff unlike two previous games where people complained about gameplay and game features.

And the game is still getting a lot of praise for its core balance and gameplay, why shouldn't people be allowed to voice their concerns regarding actual broken stuff unlike two previous games where people complained about the games themselves.

Where did I say any different? :p

    • JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements by David Uzondu JetBrains has released the fifth EAP version of Rider 2026.2, bringing a faster startup flow with the new non-modal startup screen and quality-check hooks for Claude Code and Codex. In the latest EAP release, Rider now has newly bundled "quality-check" hooks that run background tests on code edits before the external agent proceeds. For example, after Claude Code rewrites a class, Rider immediately triggers a PostToolUse hook that analyzes the code for syntax errors and formatting warnings. It then passes those findings back to the model as feedback, allowing the agent to fix its own output before finalizing the task. If Rider detects compilation errors, the IDE prevents the agent from treating the task as complete, while minor formatting warnings simply help guide the model toward better output. The "Explain with AI" feature can now tackle tricky build errors directly from the console, helping .NET developers who frequently wrestle with multi-targeting failures and MSBuild errors. JetBrains introduced Explain with AI back in the 2024.1 release cycle. With this feature, instead of forcing developers to copy long diagnostics into a separate chat window, Rider now lets you trigger these explanations directly from the error source. In similar EAP news, JetBrains recently opened the first EAP for IntelliJ IDEA 2026.2, with features that appeal to both those who are into AI-assisted coding and those who prefer "classic" manual development. For manual developers, the release adds revamped dependency completion for Maven and Gradle build scripts, which pulls data directly from the local cache to suggest relevant versions. It also brings the Spring Debugger update, displaying security indicators next to endpoints to visualize secured routes during runtime. In addition to database migration tools for Flyway and Liquibase, this build introduces a Hibernate debugger that shows the exact SQL or HQL queries that the framework plans to execute, letting developers jump directly to the Java code that triggered them.
    • I have updated my Series 9 Watch so I assume there is either a mistake in what was said, or as suggested - the new AI feature set isn’t supported on anything other than those listed above.
    • WhatsApp slams Isreali firm, NSO Group, for trying to spy on its users by David Uzondu WhatsApp has come out accusing Israeli cyber-intelligence firm, NSO Group, of deploying a fresh wave of highly targeted "spear phishing" attacks against users, which its security teams successfully thwarted. The Israeli firm, according to WhatsApp, ran this operation like its usual one-click phishing campaigns, trying to get people to click malicious links that lead them to external sites. To coordinate the campaign, the spyware vendor created fake test accounts and groups on the messaging app. WhatsApp said it is sharing the specific malicious domains, ikhwancast[.]com, ghazacast[.]com, and fr24cast[.]com, because potential victims need this data to check if they were targeted across other messaging systems or email platforms. The NSO Group is infamous for creating and selling Pegasus, a military-grade commercial spyware capable of silently compromising smartphones simply by sending a message or placing a missed call via apps like WhatsApp or iMessage. Users do not even have to interact with the incoming notification before the infection takes hold. Once Pegasus manages to break in, the spyware harvests private data, letting operators read private messages, emails, photos, and documents. It also tracks precise GPS locations, records keystrokes, activates the device's camera, and monitors live microphone audio. Independent investigations by cybersecurity watchdogs like The Citizen Lab and human rights organizations like Amnesty International have proven that governments use this software to track humanitarian workers, journalists, diplomats, and political dissidents. These findings directly contradict NSO Group claims that clients use the technology to spy on criminals and terrorists only. In late 2021, the U.S. Department of Commerce added the firm to its Entity List, effectively banning the vendor from buying hardware and software from American tech companies. WhatsApp said in its blog post that the spyware vendor violated a permanent court injunction with this new spear-phishing campaign. This injunction, which took effect in 2025, strictly prohibited NSO Group from targeting WhatsApp and its users. The platform is now asking a federal court to hold the firm in contempt.
