Duty: Black Ops. Here\'s a taster:

Task manager, high priority. Just like I said. Patch did squat and though high priority improves things I'll stick to ps3 for most of my playing.

ofc you will, slow paced gaming, taking time to auto-aim, forgiving gameplay, it's much more relaxed. PC gamers just blow you to bits since you are (by now) used to retirement home paced mp gaming

would you join me for a match on Q3 arena live 1v1? I haven't played for over a year, maybe you could catch a frag or two (over my 30 or so)

My point being is: console MP versus PC MP is not comparable, at all. Period.

I am level 22 in BO in just 2 nights of play on pc. Maybe 5 hours of play...I am just finished on ps3 at level 17. I got custom everything on both platforms. I bought both platforms because I know nobody who plays PC anymore dude. I am far superior in fps on PC. No debate there.

Last time I touched Q3 was the Live crap, sorry don't have any interest in installing that junk on my pc.

The fact about pc vs console is I can play without issue on console where as on pc, like all the time, I have to wait for patches to play properly. Get it? Tonight on PC 3 aimbotters, console, not one cheat.

BO is the first game in months I bought anything on PC...

"I am far superior in fps on PC. No debate there. "

Glad to hear it

anyway, the issue with BO on PC is that they transferred net settings from console versions, meaning: lower packet rates etc. That's what I read anyway. If that is true, then we can hardly call that an "PC issue".

Regardless, I hope they fix the PC version but right now it's not a huge loss because I have just as much fun playing it on console.

just set packet rate to 20.000 or 30.000, it should be much better (currently it is 3000, that like for a 56K modem ). Due to faster play PC needs higher packet rates.

"many of the people claiming they have no issue at all are running i5 or i7 processors."

I guess that'd be why I didn't have any in game performance issues.

anyway good on Tom for buying 2 copies, that can make up for the one I ain't gonna buy! Just got through playing the singleplayer on a steam share. I gotta say is that is some drivel of a storyline, MKUltra, CIA = doing good? lol wicked sick corruption to the core!, they sure do like to rewrite their history through film/game entertainment brainwashing and deception that's for sure.

And WTF is up with the cutscenes, were they designed to cause epileptic seizures or something?!?!? It's like they run out of shit to put in the motion graphics cutscenes, numbers and white flashes *yeh that will make the player feel all drugged up*.. oh and the entire 3d cutscenes are of you strapped in a chair for some weirdly justified American torture. Fucked up, also what kind of moron goes with 'white' background flashes, fades, backdrops for everything...sheesh that is stupid development.. its called 'black' ops aswel maybe you're meant to play it while wearing some agent shit head shades on. These games are getting more like sociopathic.

Anyway Multilayer was naff, same old, seriously COD4 can remain the last game I buy in this series.
