The game is pretty good. i liked the SP, the way the story was told and the music was good too. :ove the music when you are in the river with the boat. I don't remember the name of that part. I'll keep playing MP until Killzone 3 but man I hate Nuketown.

Cammonda and AUG are my guns of choice.

I still can't decide which one to use.. just unlocked Commando last night. I think I prefer AUG though - it's less recoil and burst faster. Commando is more powerful and somehow reloads faster (I think) but a bit hard to make a kill quickly when facing one on one

LIVE FIXES

11/18

? Improvements to the spawn system to resolve an issue where negative spawn influencers from specific game events were not always being deleted after the danger had cleared ? in some matches, this was causing good spawns to be erroneously flagged by the game as bad spawns, which in turn forced actual bad spawns to get selected later in the match

? Experimental slight reduction in knife lunge range ? this is a trial change

? Prevention of Prestige glitching ? trying to prestige from Combat Training will reset your stats but not give you prestige

That's xbox version at least, that's the newest one after the title update.

I have a server hosted in NY if anybody wants to play along. :) Yesterday it was completely full, today completely empty. It goes back and forth, so strange.

The IP is 66.55.158.128 on port 3084.

Somebody come play with me, I am lonely. :( I do not have any diseases, nor do I even bite.

but I hate that diving thing man it ****es me off a lot.

Worst thing about this game. I'll take my parties constantly breaking up than that ****in RC car. I see it coming and I'm shooting the bitch, but nothing happening. It's so annoying. It's basically a free kill, granted you find someone.

Had multi kill with a semtex/frag only thing left for me to get to snag Warlord Pro. Playing Domination on Crisis(beach one), we spawned on A and so buddy and I rushed C to take it, there whole squad left the same way and one cooked semtex later. 6 Semtex kills. It was awesome.

Guess I need to do the upload to youtube ****, cuz it was pretty was awesome.

Whilst the SP was a joke and ****ty (as expected with COD games now, imo) really enjoying the MP. Something I didn't think I would be doing.

Noob Tube. Real easy to kill them. When ever I get notified one is in my area I switch to it and kill it 9 times out of 10. Very effective. Plus the tube is very effective in clearing out buildings and campers.

I luv Summit in Domination, i keep pwning these guys, I'm on 28 now, but I hate that diving thing man it ****es me off a lot.

If you want points, play HQ. With a good group of guys we were pulling 4-5K points each a game. Black Ops really gives incentive to actually play HQ and not just try and rack up kills. We had a party of 5 guys and every game the other team would just try and get kills and end up with very little points and we would play HQ how it was supposed to be played and end up with a ton of points. Plus HQ does not tally KDR so to not actually play is useless. I have about 4 hours of play time and am level 31.

Noob tube is even more efficient at clearing out run & gunners, sometimes 3-4 at a time. w00t.gif

I have to agree with you there. They said they nerfed it but I found it is fantastic. You can not use it for the first 10 seconds of the game so no more spawn tubing and you can not scavenge rounds for it so you only get two. Regardless though it is very accurate. The Flak vest perk kills it though but I haven't found many that use it.

The diving thing needs clarifying, imo.

Diving to prone is when you're sprinting and press the change stance button twice - this involves a delay before you can shoot.

Dropshotting is when you're stationary or moving slowly and you press the change stance button - this has no delay in shooting and you can get a lot of accuracy straightaway due to the prone position accuracy.

I'm getting into the habit of swinging my shots down automatically to get dropshottings, diving to prone'rs and also Second Chancers.

I came across my second definite cheat today :/

I have been doing this as well and been scoring allot of head-shots because of it. They dive right into the path of my bullets. Works well. If you get in to the habit to start shooting then swing down it pretty much eliminates the drop shot. Well the nube-toob does as well ;)

I thought I wasn't lunging as far as I usually do when I knife someone. Would explain all the deaths I've had from trying to knife.

    • LibreOffice developer takes a dig at Euro-Office in new open letter

      By Ccl Ncc · Posted

      I have never been a huge fan of libre, it feels really good but exactly when you need an advance feature for data wrangling it falls short every time or has bugs. I am all for euro office if they can deliver a good and usable alternative to MS office with backing of govt function.
    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      Go on, I'll bite. How does windows (nice comment on an 'article' which doesn't actually involve it ) lock users out of their data then? Been using it since 3.1 back in 92 and not once have I been locked out of my data? Perhaps you mean Bitlocker? In which case the average user (who doesn't mess about) will have been forced to use a MSA, and in which case the recovery key would have been saved to said account..... If the user did happen to bodge around and not use an MSA then Bitlocker wouldn't have become live (as it cannot without a safe place to store the key) I want to point out Bitlocker and MSA are not connected and you can of course force it on without a safe place to store the key, but you do that with your eyes open. So your standard consumer who knows no better sets up an MSA, gets bitlocker and a recovery key stored off box, with a route to reset their password. All of this notwithstanding the fact, if your data is important, you back it up, no ifs, no buts, no-ones responsibility other than your own. Important data lives in at least two locations, one of which is offline and recovery is tested, otherwise that data wasn't really that important. Disks, fail, laptops get lost, phones end up down the toilet, tablets get stolen, if your only copy of data is on a single device you're doing it wrong.
    • Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri

      By excalpius · Posted

      Clearly that feature isn't for us. It's for the ad spam marketers so they can more directly target us about going to places we might want to go again...but without understanding context clues. Like for the flight someone took for a friend's funeral. We want to be reminded of that every time we open an app, a browser, or email, right? Right, Siri?
    • Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off WWDC 2026 with a ton of announcements, mostly centered around Apple Intelligence improvements, the Siri AI, and Liquid Glass updates. However, there is a lot of other stuff that couldn't catch the limelight. Let's talk about watchOS 27 and which models are supported by the newest operating system. According to the Cupertino giant, watchOS 27 will be supported on the following Apple Watch models when it arrives later this year: Apple Watch Ultra 3 Apple Watch Series 11 Apple Watch SE 3 Apple Watch Series 10 Apple Watch Ultra 2 It's a stark contrast with last year's watchOS 26 update, which had almost a dozen Apple Watch models in its list of supported devices. Apple supported models all the way back to Apple Watch Series 6. That said, if you own one of the five models, you'll need an iPhone 11 (or later) with iOS 27 to install the latest update. Yes, Apple has shown some extra love to the iPhone 11, and it old horse supports the iOS 27 update. watchOS 27 beta 1 is now available for developers and interested power users through the Apple Developer Program. So, if you're among those who like to play with fire, you can download it to your supported Apple Watch. Otherwise, the public beta for watchOS 27 will be available next month. The freshly baked Apple Watch update comes with Siri AI - an advanced, fully conversational version of Siri powered by Apple Intelligence due for later this year. A new dynamic app grid features icons for five Siri-suggested apps. You can use a new tap gesture to open a widget in the Smart Stack, and a new Find My app finally clears the mess of Find Devices, Find Items, and Find People on Apple Watch. Workout Buddy can run without an iPhone nearby and offers new insights based on data, including your progress for pace, distance, and workout duration. Apple improved its motion tracking algorithms to measure the distance of indoor treadmill runs and walks more precisely. Speaking of other changes, the music playback on watchOS 27 starts faster and you can create custom passes for any membership or card that uses a QR code or barcode, then easily access them in the Wallet app or pin in the Smart Stack.

      "and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations" The Siri I've become to know and trust. I've always wanted to pull info on old flights. /s
