CoD: Black Ops PS3 Fixes Inbound

[shane]

 

Treyarch’s to release a series of updates for the PS3 version of Call of Duty: Black Ops aimed at fixing various issues affecting the game.

 

Community boss Josh Olin wrote over on the developer’s forums: “Hey PS3 gamers, we are listening to you and we’ve been busy working on updates based on feedback from the community. “We have already deployed a number of updates, and there will be many more to come. Stay tuned right here for all the latest info.” Here are the details of what’s been sorted already and what’s in the works:

 

Live fixes:

 

Villa: User can clip into rock at west edge of grid zone B2 and see through to the other side

 

Crisis: User can clip into LVT between grid zone A3 and B3 and see through to the other side

 

User can get an infinite number of ‘Sam Turret’, ‘Care Package’ and ‘Sentry Gun’ killstreaks (commonly referred to as the “care package glitch”)

 

Radar sweep when there are only 2 players left in One in the Chamber will stop functioning if the 2 players have multiple lives when the sweep starts

 

Crash when viewing content (films, clips, etc) in the Community & Recent Games menu

 

Users’ rank and stats can get wiped under very specific conditions

 

Online number counts were not updating properly; these are now reporting exact online numbers

 

Parties getting disbanded when host did not find a match quickly

 

In progress

 

Improved matchmaking to find matches faster

 

Improved match and host selection; will result in much better networking conditions for all games (a.k.a., decreased lag)

 

Weekly and Monthly leaderboards stats reporting incorrectly for kills, deaths and assists (All Time leaderboard not affected by this)

 

Additional improvements to party system

 

A PC patch for the game was also just released to combat lag and other issues with the game. Yesterday, Activision said Black Ops had become “the biggest entertainment launch ever”, selling 5.6 million copies and generating $360 million across the US and UK on day one.

 

 

Score: 0 (0 votes cast)

Well it should be a good start to what I feel is a bad online experience, not a happy gamer.

I've had (mostly) a good experience, some lag here and there. Ground War is terribly laggy, other modes are usually (80-90%) ok in general.

[disfsk3x14]

yea ground war does get laggy i love the game tho im sure they will fix everything

[GeneralSarcasm]

I've also heard they are fixing ninja pro so it actually works... right now it does nothing.

I just saw this:

 

 

I don't know if it's true, but this guy seems to think lag is associated with the number of friends in your friends list...

Has anyone tried this? Because it does makes sense.

I'd like to see a fix to the spawn issue. I can't stand Nuketown right now because every time I spawn I spawn into a group of the enemy. If they can make it so that those in your party spawn near you why cant they make it so we dont spawn with the enemy?

Spawn issues do suck and the whole party feature has some bugs

Which is weird. Because CoD3, which was made by Treyarch, never had this issue. I remember when anyone from the opposing team crossed an invisible line, the whole team would then start to spawn on the other side of the map. To prevent you from spawning in the middle of the entire opposing team.
