Finally an honest PC review:

The visual dazzle and cinematic set-pieces are let down by bad scripting, glitchy multiplayer and increasingly dull firefights. 64/100

My thoughts.   It comes as no surprise to me that after all the hype and the "listening to the community" blurb, Activison / Treyarch have effectively ignored the potential customer feedback re COD:

Starting to believe VAC and PB are not much different for hack detection. I've been playing MoH and the amount of high skill players is just amazing. They are too good but guess what you can't do fu*k

And what has been totally mind-blowingly creative in the last 2 CODs? They still run on DX9 ffs. Gamers don't get mad a something truly creative. They get pissed off when their games are stripped d

I've had enough, almost two weeks and I still can't play it. If they don't fix it tomorrow I'm going after D2D for a refund. This is long enough to fix the damn console port.

Nope just a bad console port. My E8500 @ 3.5ghz and Geforce 460GTX has no issues with other games. Hell it even runs MoH on max in DX11.

who amongst you 'accidentally' boosted on a rankup server and what do you want me to do with your rank now? (hint: no promises)

Don't worry. If you glitched your way to high level of Prestige, you will get what is coming to you and regret it.

That's it treyarch, ban the people who took advantage of your server exploit while the number of real hackers (aimbotters) are increasing. When will developers learn.

And speaking of security holes:

======

2) Bug

======

 

 

When the server receives an rcon packet (opcode 0x00) it replies with

a packet having a fixed size of 1168 bytes, doesn't matter if its

content is smaller.

 

The result is that various parts of the server's memory are disclosed

remotely to anyone and through the continuous sending of these invalid

rcon packets is possible to monitor the server and maybe retrieving

important informations like the value of cvars (included rcon), parts

of the logs (included the output of previous rcon packets of the

admin), parts of the server's configuration and the IP addresses of the

other players.

Agreed. My only complaint is I suck! Kinda hard to blame the developer for that :lol:

 

I do laugh at the ppl that complain about every release. Its starting to fall on deaf ears. But hey, HOS is due out 2Q 2011. Guess we will only have to read the boo-hoo posts for only 6 more months! Then they will have another title to pick apart. Or - maybe the threats of quitting will be acted apon, and new hobbies will be pursued. But, I'am beginning to doubt it...

I don't expect to get anything from it but it may send a message that the game is broken.

 

It's funny that people on the steam forums tell us to wait. To which I replied:

People expect us to wait for fixes to a product that is unplayable. Next time you buy anything at the store from a TV to a simple toaster, think about if it was broken when you got home that you could not return it for 2 weeks or more. How mad would you be then.

 

If other retail products was like this still the retailers would be nailed to the wall but it's ok when software companies do it. Something needs to change because the consumer is getting shafted again and again.

Can't even play the first SP level due to stuttering. MP isn't as bad as I thought, but it still lags like shit. Might as well just play Nuketown 24/7 to level up.

 

Well on the plus side, the Steam code I won in the PlanetCoD contest was a retail one, so now that retarded requesting friends restriction I've had for so long (because I've never had a whatever "true/non-promotion/non-free game") is finally gone for good.
