I just encountered the worst spawning ever.

Playing Demolition on Radiation and my whole team kept on spawning in one area and the other team was just standing there gunning us down constantly. I just turned off the PS3 before I threw the controller at the TV.

I've had enough of Black Ops now. I have to think twice whether I want to play it or not. It's the worst Call of Duty game in the series.

Just had another spawn ambush on Firing Range and Havana. Dying 1 second after spawning.

A few days ago I traded Black Ops into Amazon for $30 credit on their website. Considering I purchased Black Ops from Amazon for $54.99, and got a $10 or $20 video game credit (I forget which one), I would say that is a pretty fair deal indeed, much better then Gamestop. They emailed me a label to ship it through UPS, so they paid for the shipping back, and from the time I shipped it to the time I got the email about having the credit took 5 days total, and I shipped two days after Christmas, December 27th, so that is pretty impressive for sure. I also traded in Halo Reach for $27 andUncharted 2 for $25. All shipped back in the same package. So now I have credit I can use anywhere on their site, not just for video games, etc. So I really may start using their service over Gamestop, no doubt about it.

Yeah, it sucks. It's nothing new though. It was an issue in MW2 during demolition games as well since the spawn zone never changed. I'd literally spawn on claymores, and in between opponents tactical insertions. And if I managed to make it through the claymores and spray, someone would call in a harrier on us. It was 100 times worse when the care package glitch was still around.

That connection error sign makes me want to plant my controller right in the middle of my playstation, they need to sort these problems out once and for all.

For me, it's the spawning that really makes me want to do that. After I respawn, they always spawn/are behind me. You have no idea how many times I've died by being shot in the back tonight. It's ridiculous.

I've just realised something.

I've been watching a lot of commentator videos on YouTube and I'm positive console weapons to a lot more damage than the PC ones.

Nah they don't, its because theater is a lying little bitch, if you watch the same match a couple of times it will be slightly different each time when using theater.

I hope you weren't capturing bases because you were trying to record something.

Look at the score - none of my team were capturing bases so I just gave up and tried to get me some kills.

Also, I've just lost about 15k credits because of a bug. It's like the bug which doesn't save classes except this time I didn't just get reset back to my credits minus purchases..I lost the credits too :x

New video - Domination Nuketown again..testing out the Stoner. Seems good - might be awesome with extended ammo and reflex sight.

Sorry. I was just a bit bitter over a recent game. I was playing demo and I was trying to get the team together at the last bomb site. One guy/kid told me that I wasn't his coach and that he would "cut me" if I showed up in his neighborhood. Seems like a perfectly sane response to my "coaching".....

Back to your post - I don't think I've ever used the death machine.

    • Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Apple finally brings the slider for Liquid Glass and many other changes by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off the official live stream of the WWDC 2026 annual developer event. The company began its latest wave of announcements with changes to the controversial Liquid Glass design language, which debuted last year across Apple's entire software ecosystem. A lot of people didn't like Liquid Glass when it first arrived on iPhone and other devices last year. The devices were plagued with transparency issues and whatnot. While Apple improved things over the year, it has now added a new Liquid Glass slider that lets you switch the transparency from clear to opaque. The sidebars now expand to the edge of the window. When you scroll the UI sideways, the refraction continues beneath the sidebar rather than being cut off at the boundary. Moreover, Apple has changed the way Liquid Glass is rendered across the system. There is a separation between different layers, which makes buttons in the toolbar stand out from the background. Apple said it "deeply appreciates" the feedback it received from users and has made adjustments to Liquid Glass.
    • Helium Browser 0.13.1.1

      By cork1958 · Posted

      FWIW, I've been using Helium on Linux and Windows since the first time it was mentioned here. Actually, maybe a day or 3 before, as I searched for it when I saw it mentioned on the MX Linux forums. Haven't had a single issue on either OS. Not bad for a beta.
    • U.S. delegation throws away all burner phones and gifts from China before takeoff

      By AsherGZ · Posted

      See up until a few years ago y'all could get away with simply denying your war crimes, pretending it never happened. Unfortunately for you, it's the 2020s and Israel's genocide has been livestreamed in real time. You have to be dumber than a rock to think anyone still believes your propaganda. See the cat is already out of the bag. The world already knows who you are so do yourself a favor and just drop the facade. Bet it gets real tiring keep track of all the lies. Take some inspiration from Israeli ministers who boast on live TV they like massacring civilians. Every zionist accusation is after all a confession.
    • Microsoft making much needed change to Windows 11, 10 Patch Tuesday security updates

      By QuantumBigfoot · Posted

      He's just reporting what Microsoft posted. https://msmessagecenter.com/MC1381119 It just means that Windows Defender updates will no longer be bundled into the monthly Cumulative Windows security update and will now be a separate download. They'll still be on Microsoft update of course but now they can be released faster.
    • Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones by Taras Buria At WWDC 2026 in Cupertino, Apple announced iOS 27, the next mobile operating system for compatible iPhones. The update focuses on tweaking and improving last year's iOS 26, particularly in areas like app launch time, Liquid Glass design, and more. Additionally, Apple has reworked Apple Maps with a significantly enhanced Flyover view for a much more realistic view. Apple also promises better performance, smarter search, new Health features, new parental controls, and more. The most important part is that iOS 27 is compatible with all iPhones that can run iOS 26. That means that even the seven-year-old iPhone 11 can run iOS 27 (supposedly better than iOS 26). iOS 27 will be available this Fall, with the first developer betas expected later today. You can follow the live stream here.
