Only happened once to me, but I got it too.

Sorry about last night, guys. I joined the party and had to bail after a few games. Had a work issue blow up and I was on and off of calls for the rest of the night so I ran solo in between calls.
Should be on tonight.

Not intentionally. Did some pruning awhile back. Might have gotten you by accident, GB.

I've only had one freeze, and that was while my son was screwing around with his emblem and tried to save right when the match started. No idea if this makes a difference or not, but have you guys that experience freezing installed the textures to your HDD? It seems logical that that might matter. Otherwise it's hard to see why it would freeze for some people but not others.

Not sure what that means. But mine always freezes at the "awaiting textures" screen

I have had so much fun since I switched my main weapon over to a shotgun. Unless I am playing Carrier I enjoy running around shooting guys and killing them with one shot kills. When they are up close and the body flies backward it is so fun. I might get the greatest score streaks, but it really is fun just constantly running around with Long Barrel, Extended Clip and Adjustable Stock.
I recommend everyone try it every once in a while just for the fun of it.

Did you try downloading textures onto your harddrive? Mine stopped freezing after that. Might've been a coincidence (it was sometime around the patch too), but it's worth trying. It's under options on, I think, the first multiplayer menu screen.

I'm in if you need a 4th. Pretty sure I've played with you before Dizzle. My gamertag is "BIG GULPS COOL".

I also heard that it can freeze if you're looking at someone else's emblem or stats when it tries to enter the game.

Been using a KSG and enjoying it. Made a whole shotgun class. Since my k/d ratio has gone to ####, might as well try and find another way to have fun.'SoCalBroncoFan said:

This game sucks beyond belief when you play by yourself with a bunch of randoms. I swear i shot down like 8 or 9 UAVs when I got matched up against the PS3 crew on Turbine. Pretty sure it was me, Studs & Duds and his 4 friends.

This and assault rifles just blow in the game. I can't even beat a pistol in close quarters!

I think the hit markers got worse as well. Started a new class based on the advice here.MSMC w/ Laser sightLightweightExtreme ConditioningFast Hands2 Bouncing Betties 1 Shock StickRun around like an idiot. I like it.

You have to use a SMG, One of the 2 shotguns or a sniper rifle. They should throw away the rest.

I still like the MTAR.
Yep, that's why I initially said this was the worst game in the series. Players seem faster especially with lightweight in this game. Running around like a headless chicken w a MCMS is fun, but will get old really fast.

M8A1 is beast. It's burst fire but once you unlock Fire Rate you can go full auto. Wish you could have it defaulted at full auto though. Having it on burst and not realizing it has gotten me killed a bunch in close quarters.On large maps the burst fire is deadly. Pretty much G11-esque, IMO.
Rick James
Footballguy
I don't get the pissing and moaning about the assault rifles. I've been tearing b-hole w/ the single-shot FAL. Haven't even unlocked full auto yet.

Mine froze for the first time last night after putting the textures on the hard drive. I figured that was a sign to get to bed before 11 and get a good nights sleep instead of playing BLOPS2 till 1 AM

Shotguns are really fun on smaller maps, like Carrier or Hijacked (or Nuketown, of course). My "shotgun" class is the following:Remington w/ Long Barrel + Quick Draw (whatever that grip is called)No secondaryNo grenadesLightfoot + Hardline (will be Lightfoot + Ghost after a couple more levels)ToughnessDexterity + ConditioningI used to carry a betty, but I found that on the kinds of maps where I would run this class, it was always destroyed or I was always killed before it took anybody out, so I dropped my grenades for Hardline. The main thing though is that I can move as quickly as possible to wherever the enemy is without being in the open any longer than necessary. It's important to be able to close fast if you're going to rely on the shotgun.

I was on for 2 hours last night trying to find any FBG homies. I'll have to send out some more invites and maybe I'll get a bite.

I have the select fire for the FAL and its nice for some maps but VERY limited for the games types due to the new score streaks. The fire rate is insanely slow and you have no shot when in close. Playing games like hardpoint, domination, HQ and kill confirmed are almost pointless with that gun unless you're laying back, not calling anything or grabbing tags IMO. I have the select fire for pretty much every AR and they all won't beat a pistol in close. You have to play at medium range and when you do you miss a ton of points.

Somewhere buried in the Blops1 thread is a list. If you guys really want to get it going you should start a seperate thread for PS3 gamer tags. I am too lazy...I mean I am too busy at work... to keep something like that updated.

When I first got BLOPS I had to reset my system after my first multi-game because it would hang. I realized that the three times it did it, I was in another users tag muting them. I have stayed out of other tags during the post-game stuff and haven't frozen once since.

I use my pistol a ton in this version. Not sure why. It is fun!~@~
Tried out Dogs, VTOL Warship and Swarm out yesterday. And TBH, I don't think they are much better in terms of kills than a Stealth Chopper. Dogs don't seem to last long enough for me(7 kills). Warship is nasty if you are in the open as it's an aim and the target is dead type deal(5 kills but was on Express/bad map for that). Swarm is sick nasty(12 kills). As with my Stealth, if it's not shot down I'll get 5-8 kills and it's much more attainable.
I think if someone were set on using a high reward I think Swarm and Dogs would be the way to go as they are unavoidable. BUT, I would think it's more beneficial to go low with the Stealth Chopper being the highest reward. And you can cycle Scorestreaks easier.

I think that the burst pistol is as good as any gun in the game at medium range, and the full auto pistol is as good as any gun in the game in close quarters.

I didn't get a ton a kills the one time I got dogs either last night.

So can anyone testify to the usefulness of those gaming glasses that are for sale now? Helpful or as good as slapping on a balance bracelet?

I feel like I can strafe faster too. Getting better at strafing has helped a little with my sucking at CQ stuff.
GroveDiesel

Gah, my success is so connection and team dependent. I played this morning and went 5-18 in a round with a bad connection and teammates that sucked. Changed lobbies and immediately went 38-11 with 6 captures and 11 defends. Although the AGR that survived almost a full half round of Domination certainly helped.
I still lean run and gun, but am way more conservative than I was in the first BO and MW3. If you are with a bunch of randoms and you try to run and gun, you're going to die a whole lot because you'll constantly be flanked.
Oh, and I used the FAL for the first time today. I like it a lot. I had the Type25 equipped as my AR but the FAL is tons better. Also did some serious damage with the crossbow today. The number of bolts in that thing is awesome. I had a lot of fun sticking snipers in windows and taking out guys at B flag on Standoff.
And I keep trying the Skorpion and it still sucks. Way too many bullets to kill and way too small of a clip.

They take out a couple of incoming explosives or tactical grenades. It's great to throw down in an objective based game when you're taking a flag/hardpoint/arming a bomb.I haven't really seen these used much, what do they actually do?Trophy system

I can think of a few maps that have spots that are grenade magnets in KC also that I might have to try it in. ThanksThey take out a couple of incoming explosives or tactical grenades.

What does Toughness do for shotguns?I've seen some shotgunners do some interesting things in this game so far. Once I recognize them in a game I try to maintain distance. This one yesterday was actually ducking behind cover and throwing out C4.The C4 is pretty over-powered and I have seen a pretty good increase in its use over the last few days. I think it will be the "next big thing". It would at least allow the shotgunner one nice medium distance kill over cover per life... and sometimes it will get you 3 or 4 kills because the blast radius is so large.

So far I have 2 of the 4shotguns gold in my quest to get diamonds cammo. The s12 was a grind
GroveDiesel

Yeah, C4 has been OP for several CODs now. You can throw that stuff a long way. It's silly. With its huge blast radius I maintain that you should only be able to drop it straight down or plant it on a surface in front of you.
