Call of Duty: Black Ops Message Board  

Hi guys,

Just installed this and it's a mess...

Singleplayer: Lagging very hard.. I can run MW2 and WAW on max settings as smooth as butter. This games stutters no matter what I do, offline mode or even disabling steam cloud.... Hope there's a patch coming because at the moment I cannot even play offline singleplayer

Multiplayer: Won't even go there for the moment after getting BSOD... ridiculous.

Anyone else experiencing similar problems?

After trying the multiplayer, I wanted to kill myself... I get lockups every 30 seconds because of high pings. Treyarch deserves to be beaten with a stick for not being able to deliver a complete game on launch date.

It seems like the whole world is playing Black Ops 😵

my God people.... ive had this all day in the Black Ops forum on Steam... its the 1st day.... every bugger and their granny is downloading the game to play it... Steam didnt account for the massive demand of the game.... so top whinging and be patient

Runs perfectly for me not 1 glitch hickup or anything, so might consider checking your drivers and doing a scrub of the system if your having issues with the game, not every one is as much of a geek when it comes to there comp.

I use a variety of programs to remove clutter on the comp to scan for viruses and i keep my drivers up to date checking every few days, might consider checking for viruses or malware if it lags for you online, and offline as well with slowing down and such might be a good idea to check everything.

Especially if your running MW2 and such with out these issues, might be an idea to check for driver issues, and clutter on the comp might have some registry entry causeing a problem.

"Steam didnt account for the massive demand of the game"

This made me laugh.

playing the game on maxx everthing set to high setting no problem what card do you have 470s sli

No issues here either, 5870 Vapor X, Win 7 x64, 955 BE and 4gb G-Skill. About the only complaint I have is Steams 10am est release. Beyond that, happy as a clam.
