Black Ops for PC or 360?

[Motoko.]

I'm curious about the kind of experience I'll get with a new laptop that will probably have a Radeon 5850M w/ a resolution of 1600 by 900 compared to a 360 and Xbox Live. Are there any differences in MP experience between the two platforms?

Treyarch today announced that the PC version of the forthcoming Call of Duty: Black Ops will support both dedicated servers and mod tools. That functionality comes with a small caveat, though, as the studio noted that the features will be implemented sometime after the game's launch on November 9.

hmm the time frame might be perfect. I don't expect to purchase until November.

I'll probably grab a Envy 17 w/ a Razer Orochi Mouse

Personally I'd get a full size mouse, I find the smaller mice too small for my liking, I have a ROCCAT Pyra.

As Treyarch have confirmed mod tools and dedicated servers for Black Ops, I'd imagine the PC version will be more fun, and better looking. I'll be picking it up via Steam probably.

360 version if you want an online match without cheaters

PC version if you want proper controls and graphics

PC version also used steam's VAC... which is garbage. go hackers go!!!

that's why im getting it for ps3. for that reason i would suggest 360.

360 for exclusive DLC as well.

[Sethos]

For games like these, where the main point of the game is the competitive gameplay instead of graphics and all that, I'd say the 360. PC games are riddled with cheaters online, it's such a killer to have at the back of your mind that the guy doing a bit too well might be a dirty cheater - Ruins the experience completely.

have we forgotten about the 360 MW2 cheaters already? They made the game unplayable, and the reason why I stopped playing

Really? Never encountered any, did encounter a TON on the PC version in the few hours I played.

VAC is fine. Its just that is designed to be used with dedicated servers with its delayed ban system. using it with a p2p system in mw2 was a very bad idea. If you play in any decent css/tf2/l4d servers you see FAR less hackers than in mw2. VAC also doesn't have tons of issues and false positive kicks like PB.

Almost 300 hours in online play with MW2 here, no problems with cheaters on the 360.

Really? You never got brought in from Domination to Team Deathmatch on Rust with unlimited ammo for the other team? This happened to me for a week straight every other match!!!

[undu]

I don't know if there are any right now, but when I stpeed playing it january/february 2010 it was full of cheaters/glitchers.

In fact it's one of the motives I stopped playing the game.

Nope and still not as annoying as Wallhacks and aimbots.

A mouse might be easier and more accurate, but I still feel much more comfortable with 360 controller than keyboard and mouse.

[Sethos]

Free DLC <<<<<

Really? The 2 x 14€ DLC packs on Steam for MW2 says otherwise

and the fact you can't lay back on a couch and lounge with a keyboard and mouse.

YA I know but mw2 waz not useing dedicated servers <Also take a note that to date its been the only COD game to have charge pc people for maps> assuming u didn;t torrent them.

COD Mw1 and COD WaW By tryarch were all free to pc users...

well they costed for ps3/xbox.

Its kinda hard to charge for DLC on when games are run on Dedicated server. do to the fact the compinie has no contral over the online aspect of the game.

^^^^

My pc mouse aiming is still more accuret then your thumbs can be.

also if there are 12 and under kidz on the pc u never hear from them.. Its like they dont know how to hook up a pc mic withc is A bonus for the rest of the pc communitee
