I've played MW2, Black Ops 1, and MW3 for hundreds of hours, and after playing Black Ops 2 for about 15 hours and prestiging once, I have to say: this game sucks. Seriously. This game should be called Call of Duty: Mario Party edition.

1. All of this game's perks and killstreaks are just rehashes of stuff that was already in previous games.

2. Perks have been nerfed, massively. Basically they took all of MW3's best perks, chopped them up into pieces, and said "look, new perks and attachments!". Quickdraw? Yeah, that's an attachment now. Steady aim? Attachment. Stalker? Attachment. Sleight of Hand? Attachment.

3. Assassin Pro? Yeah, now you need Cold-Blooded, Hard-Wired, and Ghost. Yes, 1 MW3 perk = 3 Black Ops 2 perks. Oh, and Ghost has been massively nerfed so it's basically useless now. WTF?

4. Want your good-old MW3 perks back? Okay! ...But you have to get rid of your flash-bangs and lethal grenades first! HAHAHA! What genius developer thought up that idea?

5. The killstreaks have now been made ridiculously over-powered:

-The Reaper? Now it's called "Lodestar", takes 4 missiles instead of 2 to shoot down, the missiles fire twice as fast, and they're much more deadly.

-And don't forget the hunter-killer drone! For only 4 kills, now you can throw a homing-grenade into the air that kills an enemy completely at random!

-The helicopters now fire much faster, are much more accurate, much deadlier, can't be seen on radar, and take two shots to shoot down! Yipee!

-Mortar-strikes now come in instantaneously without warning, and kill you even if you're inside a building! Gee, I always wanted a COD game where I'd just die from random explosions without warning! Now that takes skill!

-Sentry guns? They can't be knifed or hacked, they have a lot more HP, and can be remote-controlled.

6. The killstreak system is terrible; now 1 kill = 100 kills. I get 50 points for killing a guy, 50 for an assist, 50 for blowing up a lethal grenades or flash-bangs, 75 for shooting down a UAV, 100 for grabbing a tag, 125 for destroying a guardian, and 200 for capturing a flag. So basically I can get killstreaks now by... not killing people?

7. The graphics have been downgraded; the levels do not look as good as they did in MW3. Period.

8. Lag, don't even get me started on lag--much worse than MW3. Seriously Activision, get dedicated servers, this is a joke! And matchmaking has serious issues.

9. I have never seen so many people people quit out so frequently. Seriously, in MW3 I NEVER got a default-win due to the enemy-team all quitting out, but it seems to happen all the time now.

Sentry guns can be hacked and about the whole kill streaks without kills bit would you prefer if you got no points for anytgr other than killing.

I thought this was going to be a good read. I don't really want to dedicate the time to pick out where you are wrong, but kill streaks? Seriously? Are you blind? They are called score streaks now, hence why you get points towards them for getting points. Jeez, if you are going to dedicate this much time to complaining, please double check your information, you just look foolish now.
Nov 20, 2012 3:20 am GMT

Now that I read number 4 out loud, that is kind of weird.

I just never looked at it that way. LOL

Score streaks kill streaks, who cares. STREAKS! You get reward from points and kills, kill streaks score streaks call them what you will. This topic is amazing, and I am still laughing at how USELESS Wired Perk is, lol EMP or C-UAV can't effect me? OH god... thank you!

Yes but his longest complaint was that you can build up a killstreak without having to get kills. Killstreaks don't exist in this game, therefore some of his complaints are null and void, because he is stating incorrect information. XD and the streak rewards might be harder to destroy and stuff, but in fairness they are a LOT harder to get than in mw3.

Yeah, but the "Scorestreaks" in this game give you the equivalent to what Killstreaks would give you in MW3 and previous games. I like Score Streaks, I think it's a good idea, but I think it's stupid at how hard simple ones are to get, but now they made them so over powered, I killed 24 guys with one VTOL. I mean that would be a record for a Osprey gunner in MW3, which is the highest kill streak.

Oh I just thought of another one:

10. You can use killstreaks to get more killstreaks even after you die. Previously in COD games: 1. kills with care-packages do not count towards further killstreaks, 2. if you earn a killstreak, die, and then use that killstreak, that does not count toward further killstreaks. All of this is no longer true in Black Ops 2. For example, you can earn a care-package, get a Lodestar from it, die, use the Lodestar, and get enough points to earn another care-package. Or you can earn a Lightning-strike, die, use the Lightning-strike, and then get points from it toward your next killstreak.

I understand that, but read his complaint number 6. All I'm saying is that it is completely void because hes saying that you can build a killstreak without killing people which is stupid. But you can't, because killstreaks don't exist in this game, so that point is just completely wrong. You must see what I mean. XD

You know what's fair? 6 prestiged players with mics vs 5 stripes with no mics and 1 prestiged guy!

Know what's fairer than that? Being put on a losing team 10 points from the match being over!

Even better when it happens 8 times in a row!

(Seriously not buying anymore CoDs until this **** is fixed)

Anyone who's upset about the new attachment/perk sytem is bad and needed OP crutches. Considering most of your arguement was that you can't roll with assassin, and ghost is "broken" even though it works fine if you move, I'm gonna say yea; ya bad.

Get it right, do it nice. If you make a mistake, you're gonna pay for it twice. If you need it... got to have it. Get yourself a shotgun and bring it back home

This has happened in every COD ever. The only fix would be if partied players could only play with other parties.

"1. All of this game's perks and killstreaks are just rehashes of stuff that was already in previous games." - So? Take what worked before, tweak it and off you go. No need to add crap new ones just for the sake of it

"2. Perks have been nerfed, massively."- Its to balance classes, now you cant have all those perks and a load of attachments to make you overpowered.

"3. Assassin Pro? Yeah, now you need Cold-Blooded, Hard-Wired, and Ghost. Yes, 1 MW3 perk = 3 Black Ops 2 perks. Oh, and Ghost has been massively nerfed so it's basically useless now. WTF?"- See above

"4. Want your good-old MW3 perks back? Okay! ...But you have to get rid of your flash-bangs and lethal grenades first! HAHAHA! What genius developer thought up that idea?"- Again, balance

"5. The killstreaks have now been made ridiculously over-powered:"- good, if they are hard to earn then the reward should be worth it, and im glad they are harder to take down nothings worse than earning a killstreak only to have it immediately shot down.

"-Sentry guns? They can't be knifed or hacked, they have a lot more HP, and can be remote-controlled."- Black Hat

"6. The killstreak system is terrible; now 1 kill = 100 kills. I get 50 points for killing a guy, 50 for an assist, 50 for blowing up a lethal grenades or flash-bangs, 75 for shooting down a UAV, 100 for grabbing a tag, 125 for destroying a guardian, and 200 for capturing a flag. So basically I can get killstreaks now by... not killing people?" -SCOREstreak

"7. The graphics have been downgraded; the levels do not look as good as they did in MW3. Period."- And? There are a lot more effects added to BO2.

"8. Lag, don't even get me started on lag--much worse than MW3. Seriously Activision, get dedicated servers, this is a joke! And matchmaking has serious issues."- True

"9. I have never seen so many people people quit out so frequently. Seriously, in MW3 I NEVER got a default-win due to the enemy-team all quitting out, but it seems to happen all the time now."-exaggerate much?

Or they just changed their matchmaking to have an option to not join games in progress and force parties against parties. Not hard.

Actually Cold-blooded is 4 perks now (Blind Eye), although Assassin would be 3.

Enemies who have recently spawned don't show up on your VTOL's radar for a few seconds. Giving them the opportunity to take try and fire at you. You can still kill them if you see them but it gives them a chance. If I see a VTOL, I'm aiming at it every chance I get. Frankly, planes don't even live that long thanks to Blind Eye/Cold Blooded + the FHJ-AA in addition to the above.

And, correct me if I'm wrong, but I seem to remember in MW3, spawn protection lasted long enough to give players a chance to aim and fire at you without you being able to do much at all regardless of if you saw them or not.

To be honest, I've never seen the sky as a big threat. Even the Lodestar seems to die fairly fast once I catch it in my sights.

If you're playing against players who don't have an anti-air custom class then that's a problem with the players. Having Blind Eye and Cold Blooded just for when or if the enemy gets enough for it, or manages to pull one from a care package doesn't take much.
