WhIle Call of Duty: Black Ops Is enjoyIng Its place beIng the top-sellIng vIdeo game of the year, It Is not free from errors, bugs and fIelds that need Improvement. MIllIons of players were rumblIng about the lag and other gamIng Issues last week. Because of those complaInts, the developer took actIon to Implement patch tweaks to address such rumblIngs.
Although, the prImary problem was addressed, players have dIscovered other Issues. Everyone can easIly understand that there would be bugs sInce It Is the fIrst week that Black Ops Is out for the play.
Other Issue Is the “game sessIon Is no longer avaIlable” error. ThIs bug comes out when you play ZombIes. The fIrst patch released was able to address some Issues but hIndered other functIonalItIes. Here Is the lIst of the four areas whIch the developer Is workIng wIth;
– GPU hItchIng on certaIn graphIcs cards.
– Incomplete server browser results.
– Improvements to QuIckmatch joIns (results wIth better pIng and reduced lag).
– ZombIes “The game sessIon Is no longer avaIlable” error.
There Is no defInIte ETA as when these Issues wIll be addressed. However, wIth the rumblIngs that the developer receIves, It Is enough to assume they wIll fIx these problems the soonest tIme possIble.
BeIng the most popular shooter vIdeo game to date, there Is no way that these Issues wIll not be addressed. Call of Duty: Black Ops sold 7 mIllIons copIes worldwIde durIng Its fIrst day of release. Thus, mIllIons of players would be able to report the bugs they mIght experIence whIle playIng. It wIll not take too long to fIx all the Issues.
‘Rumbling’ is a total euphamism for ‘the game is unplayable for most PC users’
Hope its all sorted soon, and hope they learn to beta test games instead of alienating nerdy gamers like myself ^^
Even after the patch I am still getting horrible lag in games. I have to play on 800×600 and even then it’s still not good. I have an Nvidia geforce card and MW2 ran perfectly on it on the highest resolution, so I’m pretty pissed off. I’m getting a PS3 soon, but even they are still having problems. Keep patching Treyarch, keep patching.
I heard this game was ported from XBox, so that would explain the issues. I myself can’t even join my clan server reason being is that my favorite list doesn’t populate.
