Black Ops for PC
namajnaG:
Anyone that got the game for PC got major lag spikes on multiplayer servers?
Its simply horrible, I should have listened. "This game is going to suck." My friend said.
Mangley:
Are Infinity Ward still going for the 'disallow dedicated servers so that people have no control over what maps they play and can't create custom content so we can charge extortionate prices for map packs re-releasing old maps from previous COD titles and force everyone through inconvenience to get them' thing?
I think I'll pass.
mookie:
You can rent servers, but players can't connect by IP. Not all servers show up in the browser. So for a lot of people, you can't even join the server you're paying for. Essentially a $15/mo donation to a server farm, then go play on servers at random.
* Yes, this is real.
major:
I've got it for PS3, and runs great. I got sick of console ports for PC, so I just moved to console.

I haven't heard anything about that, I know you can't connect to an IP like you could in older CoD titles, But not being able to connect to your own server?
I hope they fix this soon.

No actually Black Ops was developped by Treyarch this time.
Many important IW employees quit or got fired. So Infinity Ward pretty much disbanded.
There are dedicated servers, But for the old maps, So far no news.

Agreed, But I hate consoles for three things.
