how come people think cod is the only fps? theres lots of other games try something new
it's definatly not the only FPS in the world not by a long shot.... but, with that being said about all the other FPS, it's well it's just the BEST FPS on the market which is why for the last 2 installments of the CoD franchise have been the LARGEST software launches in history!FACT: popularity does not equal quality.
a cookie to whover can point out the flaw in my sig image!FACT: that's simply your opinion
No, its a fact that popularity doesnt equal quailty, or else it would simply be called quality.
a cookie to whover can point out the flaw in my sig image!
ok dude, i get it you're not a CoD fan. I get IT!!!
Pulling an awful lot of info from something that wasnt there, or would you care to point out where i said ANYTHING about CoD being good OR bad?
Ya thats what i thought, you tried to claim its the best FPS merely because its sold the most, its not my fault if you cant tell the difference between popularity and quality

In general so many people say the game sucks, then get off teh forums and go play/troll/post somewhere else and let the people who do enjoy things like the zombies/multiplayer post and find information. All you people do is spam about how bad it is.
Yeah, Okay, I get it, game deveopers make games because they are businesses, and businesses want to make a ton of money. Now here's the difference between a good game, and a CoD game:
Let's use Batman: Arkham Asylum as the example for our good game, and we'll use Black Ops as our bad game. B:AA had alot of effort put into it, ALOT. The developer was passionate about the game they were making, and put their heart and soul into making a great game, they made a game that would deliver the gamers one hell of a Batman experience.
Now with Black Ops, you get the same crap you get every year, except this time, you get worse graphics. The only new things are perks (more than half of them were already present in present CoD games), some new killstreaks (some of them were in previous CoD games), facepaint, and a currency system, and a new diving mechanic. Now as for the weapons, you get only a few different ones. The AK47, Galil, Commando are all the same. The FAL and M14 are the same, and the FAMAS and AUG are the same. Then you have two three round burst rifles. So you have about 4 different assault rifles. As for the SMGs, you have one overpowered one, one decent one, and the rest are all crap. The shotguns all suck, the sniper rifles are broken and useless, and the LMGs serve no purpose whatsoever in the game. Then you get a bunch of terrible maps, crappy P2P servers and unbelievably boring and stale gameplay combined with a crap load of glitches, and terrible matchmaking issues. And zombies are extremely boring when you learn the maps.
This is why CoD is terrible, you get the same crap every year, with a few extra things. They don't put alot of effort into it, they just copy stuff from the old game and create some new things every year and presto! Money money money. But as for Batman: Arkham Asylum..... just look at the trailer for the sequel:
The only reason why the COD franchise has done so well in the past couple of years is because they are multi platform games. Of course halo has done well but thats because people are cheap with their consoles these days and go for the kia instead of the mercedes. But back to what i was saying. Killzone, resistance, and other FPS dont get as near of a profit as COD because they are limited to the PS3. Plus COD fans are band wagaon players anyway. I really think they have no souls lol

Yes, Treyarch brought back some old perks and some old weapons because they were crowd favorites and they listened to what the public wanted. They also brought into play dozens of new ideas and features that no other CoD game had. The wager system, the diving mechanic, and the custom emblem creator are just a few.
In my opinion (see what I did there), there are only 2 guns in the game that truly fail in comparison to the rest and those are the Dragunov (horrible hit detection/power) and the HS10 (terrible range/power). The rest are fine. You claim all the sub machine guns are trash and yet I almost exclusively use them and destroy people left and right. The Spectre, Skorpian, and MPL dominate and do what they are expected to do. You also claim that the shotguns are useless and yet I have a friend who exclusively uses them and does well every game, even I can pick up a shotgun and destroy a room with it. The sniper rifles are great if you're using them for what they are intended for, and that's sniping.
So in my opinion, perhaps you are just a terrible player. Maybe you think the guns are terrible because you try to Snipe people with sub machine guns and shotguns, and you try to quickscope people with sniper rifles. Perhaps you simply don't know exactly how to use situational awareness and gun knowledge to the best of your ability.
"Terrible Maps" in your opinion, "stale gameplay" in your opinion, and "zombies are extremely boring" in your OPINION.
Now I am in no way a fanboy of CoD, in fact I would much rather go play Little Big Planet, Gran Turismo, Killzone, or Battlefield; I just can't stand when people preach their opinions like it's fact.
As for B:AA, I couldn't stand that game and it's for the simple fact that open world type games aren't my cup of tea and yet I don't sit here and say the game is complete garbage just because I dislike the genre or the game mechanics. It's also the first game in it's series whereas Call of Duty is on it's 7th? game. So yes everything in there is new and exciting but I bet the second game comes back with relatively the same gameplay and mechanics as it's predecessor. Do try to be Objective when reviewing games, and if you can't, then you can take your opinion and shove it, because no one cares. Mmkay?

You do really well with the Spectre, Scorpion, and MPL, but I bet that you would do alot better with an AK-74U or MP5K, if you use the Spectre, Scorpion, and MPL and do well with them, then I congratulate you for being a good player, but that doesn't change the fact that they aren't as good as the other two.
They brought in dozens of new ideas? Oh, so Treyarch should pat themselves on the back because they added a Lens color for the red dot? Or maybe because of facepaint? Sure, the diving mechanic is fun, and the wager system is a new twist, but there haven't been any major innovations to the series. Shotguns are quite underpowered, the SPAS and Olympia are fairly decent, but the Stakeout and HS-10 are underpowered IMO (satisfied?) Sniper rifles are BROKEN, quite a few times my aim will be dead on someone, and I get nothing, and sometimes I don't aim anywhere near a guy, and I get the kill, this has happened to lots of people, and there are lots of vids showing it, so yeah. And what about the LMGs? No argument there?
Even the die hard CoD fans will agree that the gameplay is just boring. And the matchmaking is just terrible. Sure, it's fun for the first Prestige or so, but it just gets boring after a while. If you enjoy the game, then by all means, continue playing it, I don't really care. And there are lot's of games that I didn't like that I think are good. I didn't really like Red Ded Redemption or Uncharted, but I still try to view things from other peoples' perspective's and I can see why those two games are considered to be great and successful, and I consider them to be good games.
If you like the game and think it's good, then play it, by all means, I'm not stopping you, but I have every right to say what I think about it, and if you don't like what I have to say, I don't really give a shit, Mmkay?
