Now that some peeps have been playing for a while would you guys tell me:

a) Buy it because it is just worth the price
b) Buy it because it is "OK" but Cain has a server so it's a must
c) Save your money and limited play time for something else

If it wasn't for the CLR servers I would prolly give this one a miss but I am tempted. Plus the commercial with Kobe made me want it at least a tiny bit even though there isn't any game play in it.

If they'd have skipped the ad with Kobe, they might have had enough cash to pay some programmers (instead of rehashing WAW with a few strategy twists). In no way is it worth 60 bucks (as Rogue7 so aptly put it, "it looks like something you could download for free" [might be a bit of an exaggeration, but not so far]). The only reason I got it is to play with CLRs. But with only 18 people on a server and nobody talking, just running in circles, some camping, as necessary in tdm, even that's fading away.

I'm at like level 48 of 50. Haven't prestiged yet. Barring some amazing change to the game, I'm guessing I might hold my interest for another week...maybe two, if Mapes is on with his tomahawk.

for now, keep your money dude
i reinstalled COD4 instead and play on an local (indonesian) server
reasons:
-black ops is so laggy and the latest patch has not completely fixed it
-i am used to playing cod games at 125 fps and it is smooth as hell, but a lot of eyecandies are locked in black ops and cant be turned off even manually using the config file
-many maps make campers do well

you can be on the top of the score board one game, and at the bottom on the next depending on how much the lag hates u

edit: oh yea, i forgot to mention the bugs:
-sometimes u cant connect to the game at all and u'll have to restart steam
-sometimes u cant level up, your current experience will exceed the bar, but you wont level up unless you leave game and reenter a game. And then, your progress on that level will be rest back to 0.

Keep you money man and wait for the game to drop down in price.

A) not worth the price yet. If it drops down to the 40 dollar range i say its a buy then.
b) It depends, I personally don't like hardcore mode and both of Cain's servers are HC. So I find my self playing elsewhere. I play with a group of old WoW buddies but if i didnt have them to play with (or CLRs) i probably wouldn't have got the game.

Leveling up is really easy, I've prestige'd twice already (it really helps when youre with a group of friends on vent too, makes rolling the other team easy). Though i have put in alot of hours this past week.

[JohnyRico]

Thanks for the advice! Guess it's back to the wastelands in Fallout. And Civ 5.

[mapes]

Yeah I agree a friend asked me about both games BO and MoH and in retrospect I wouldn't buy either the second time around

[Reconsnipe1]

I say its a buy. Its not as good as cod4, but once all the kinks are worked out its should be good.

[bobytt]

This game as well MW2 and MOH are the WORST game purchases i EVER made. I feel really sorry i wasted my money on that.

[JohnyRico]

6-1 against. Anybody else?

[Tuck]

In all honestly, if this game were not hosted by Cain, I probably would have passed. Having said that, I still think it's a buy because it's a fun game to play, and the single player mode is pretty awesome, IMO.

[H0ly-H@nd-Gr3nade]

I really enjoy the game, I don't know why every hates it so much. It is just like the other COD games (as was pretty much expected), with some slight changes.

I haven't had any performance issues, and enjoyed the campaign. I have been wasting TOO much time on the zombies gametype, which is new if you have only played COD4. My only complaint is that Cain's is running TDM (which I feel gets boring), but there are certainly other fun gametypes out there!

[baconoclock]

I should say i don't hate the game either, just certain things. I still think its worth buying.

[Caddys83]

The way I look at it. If your undecided, then dont get it. If your a COD junky like me, then yes, its way better then the buggy BFBC2

Is it worth 60 dollars, No game is worth 60 dollars.

[SIR Rossy]

bfbc2 was better
