Template:User:MLGisNot4Me/Why Blops Sucks

Black Ops. The game that was promised to be good and all-balanced, but never was. Or maybe it was, but it never was supposed to. Or maybe it was supposed to, but it never was.
Boring as hell and overrated as fuck. That's my opinion of Black Ops. It still might be the game I play the most currently, but that's purely because of Zombies. 5% of the time I play Blops I try multiplayer, but after a while I get too raged, and decide to quit. At least many YouTubers have realized the truth, and probably majority of the fellow wikians too, but across the CoD community, Black Ops is still liked very much, due to millions of Treyarch fanboys getting tired of MW2 in 2010 with its so-called flaws (OMA tubing is rare these days), and taking a shit on IW despite them actually creating the Call of Duty in all its glory, where as Treyarch tries to make copies of IW's games (World at War is basically a WWII version of Call of Duty 4). Let's just say that IW created the Create-a-Class, killstreak rewards and all the other current CoD elements.

In multiplayer, I usually use the M16 and play fair and for fun. Guess what the enemy does? Camps in a practically inaccessible place with TacInsertion, then sprays everyone across the map with Famas, thinking "O IM SO PR0 BECUZ I GET SO MANY KILLS IM L33T". However, there's an alternative. He camps (again), this time in a corner with Ghost Pro, staying there with an AK74u and Claymore/Motion Sensor, aiming down the sight, frozen like a dead snail, that's until I come by with my M16 (which is terrible in CQB), where he sprays the shit outta me. I try to get payback on him, but he has switched place and gets his friends help him get more kills to be the most popular kid in school.

Here's a list of things I hate in multiplayer.

The most major

 * 1) Ghost_headshot.png Halo_Ghost.png
 * 2) The Four: Famas, AK74u, AUG and Commando
 * 3) The Four with suppressors
 * 4) At least two of The Four are used by (at least) three 8-year-old Ghost whores in every game
 * 5) Majority of the guns are boring. Those that are not, such as HK21, M14 or Skorpion are practically too weak to compete the boring and überpowered ones, such as The Four which majority of people use.
 * 6) No Stopping Power.

The less major, but still annoying

 * 1) Challenges, they unlock nothing, when compared to MW2 where you get fancy titles and emblems.
 * 2) Lack of Prestige challenges.
 * 3) Hit detection is awful. Seriously, I shoot a guy in the chest, but he doesn't get hit yet I'm shot 2 feet away from me but I'm the one that gets headshotted??
 * 4) Perks are boring (except Hacker Pro).
 * 5) Maps are boring.
 * 6) Factions are boring.
 * 7) Sniping is dead.
 * 8) Treyarch made WaW a good game, but with Blops they ruined the series.
 * 9) Treyarch's easter eggs (excluding Zombies) -> -_-
 * 10) 3D seriously?.
 * 11) Previous games: "ENEMY AC130 ABOVE!!1!" and "They sent the hounds, but they too will find only DEATH!!". Black Ops: "Enemy dogs incoming." and "Enemy Huey incoming.". No, staying calm in the brink of death doesn't make them badass.
 * 12) Spawn system.
 * 13) Camping.
 * 14) *Spawn camping.
 * 15) *Spawn camping in Demolition.
 * 16) The general thought that Blops doesn't have camping unlike previous games. Umm...
 * 17) No hiding from Blackbird, equals to enemies having wallhack for one minute.
 * 18) I remember there used to be cool killstreak rewards.
 * 19) Nuketown is overrated.
 * 20) People whining "wel @ leest blak ops is balacnd modded gayfail tube had infinte nobtuubign adn comando adn overpowrd gunz lik akimbo modal 1887" (when in most cases they haven't even played previous CoDs).
 * 21) Treyarch's games are one of the most gore and profane games I've ever played, yet your Clan Tag, Custom Class names (come on, nobody even sees them other than you) and film names can't contain any profanity, not even "WTF".
 * 22) *Furthermore, the Custom Class profanity sensor is really doing a good job in that I can't even name my class as Assault (Ass), or Kiparis ExtMag (s Ex).
 * 23) Treyarch is too lazy...
 * 24) *...to make their own engines.
 * 25) *...to make more reload sounds, instead every gun in 3rd person uses M1911's reload sound.
 * 26) *...to make weapon animations, and copies the ones IW made, let's take L96A1 (Intervention), AK-47 and M14 (M14 EBR) for example.
 * 27) *...to do research on guns' manufacturing dates.
 * 28) *...to get some variety on guns; many of the guns in their respective classes feel the same and have identical ROFs. Seriously, across every gun, there are only a few options for ROF, usually 937,5 rpm.
 * 29) *...to be inspirational on certain features. Let's see what Treyarch took off MW2: many perks and guns, customizable killstreaks (including many killstreaks themselves, such as Care Package) etc.
 * 30) Grenade throw range is ridiculously low.
 * 31) It's the most popular amongst 9-year-old British (no offense to British people in general!) faggots who tend to spam the mic with either rap, their own singing or really high-pitched speaking.
 * 32) It's the most popular amongst n3wbs.

"Treyarch nerfing things never actually does anything; when they nerfed the grip on the AK74u, people, rather than using new guns, just slapped on rapid fire instead which just made the problem worse. It'll be the same with the Famas, give it a couple of weeks and it'll be the AUG everyone is using instead."

I think singleplayer is average. It was fun to play through, Veteran wasn't impossible when opposed to Grenades at War, Reznov's comeback, all that stuff. Still, it wasn't clearly as epic as those in Call of Duty 4, Modern Warfare 2, Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Halo: Reach, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, Portal 2 etc. Some things stayed unexplained, such as the JFK thingy at the end, what did the numbers really mean and so forth. Out of ten, 7. The list of what I mainly hate in singleplayer:
 * 1) Repeating quotes:
 * 2) *"Dragovich, Kravchenko, Steiner... ALL must die"
 * 3) *"I keep hearing the FUCKING NUMBERS!!"
 * 4) *"Where is the numbers/broadcast station?!"
 * 5) Fail subtitle censor. 'Fuck' is sometimes censored and sometimes not, but they can always be heard.
 * 6) The glitch when enemies have Juggernaut Pro.
 * 7) Every playable character is American (excluding Reznov in Project Nova)
 * 8) Kravchenko always having >:[ face, doesn't speak and is a pet of Dragovich
 * 9) Steiner (along his troops) shows the true will of Nazis; rather surrender than die for your country with honor
 * 10) Dimitri's death = :'(
 * w:c:Halo:Avery Johnson -> Griggs -> Bowman chain keeps going.
 * 1) Only one mission in Cuba
 * 2) I didn't notice any references to Full Metal Jacket, Saving Private Ryan or Black Hawk Down.
 * 3) No cliffhanger endi...
 * 4) You can't see on what difficulty you have completed a mission, it actually made me play Rebirth two times on Veteran.
 * 5) The main menu is cool, but takes a shitload of RAM for a menu.

Zombies! The only upside of Black Ops for me, personally. It's fun to play. I mainly play Kino der Toten, because I just like it. It doesn't have:
 * no perks, traps or PaP
 * Usain Bolt zombies
 * ninja zombies and slime that prevents you from moving but zombies walk in it as if it was water
 * perfection
 * very narrow hallways and no space to move around and build a good Rape Train
 * *self explanatory*
 * Soviet zombie monkeys from space
 * An immortal director
 * An easter egg that requires four skilled, mature and communicating people, something very rare these days, especially for me since I barely have any people on my friends list that actively play CoD.

I sometimes tend to play Ascension. I'd really love to play it solo, but those fucking Space Monkeys are really a pain in the ass on solo. That's why I play on co-op, but I always get shitty randoms. There are exceptions, actually sometimes (but rarely) better than me, but the lack of communication usually means we down at round ~20. Still, even though I love zombies, here's the list.
 * 1) Bad connection is kicking the chair off when the rope is on your neck
 * 2) The host is basically always from Western US, whereas I live in North-Eastern Europe. If I get the host, everyone else are really laggy and quit.
 * 3) After round 30, nothing is effective at killing except Thundergun (or Wunderwaffe DG-2 in classic maps)
 * 4) Teammates in matchmaking, usually 8-year-old British kids, 13-year-olds with terrible angst and don't give a fuck about other players, or just noobs in general.
 * 5) People who are AFK just to piss other people off
 * 6) Retarded matchmaking system
 * 7) Lack of WaW weapons
 * 8) Wunderwaffe doesn't feel the same as in WaW
 * 9) Space Monkeys
 * 10) There's 7 perks to choose from, but instead of actually buying them all, your character rather wants to groan after 4 because taking another cola would make him feel sick.
 * 11) Where's the Pack-a-Punched MPL with Suppressor, Reflex Sight and Dual Mags we saw in the CotD trailer?
 * 12) Undead, stupid creatures can climb some fences and obstacles and jump incredibly high distances, but a living, smart human can't.
 * 13) The Pack-a-Punched Death Machine only operates as such in multiplayer, it's afraid of zombies, and so as to not anger them, it only shoots peas.

So, my conclusion:
 * Multiplayer: "Like the fist of Stalin... up your ass."
 * Singleplayer: could've been better, but still I enjoy to play it when I do.
 * Nazi Zombies: the only reason why I haven't sold the game.
