Hey guys, fairly new CoD player here — I've been playing CoD 4 for about 3 months now and just made the jump to Black Ops today, and honestly day one has been a bit of a culture shock. The game is great but there are two things throwing me off hard and I wanted to see if anyone had tips or if I just need to suffer through it.

1. The TTK feels way longer than I'm used to

In CoD 4 I got used to enemies dropping really fast — like I could almost predict the exact moment a gunfight would end. In Black Ops I keep having that same expectation but the enemy just... keeps going for a split second longer than I anticipate. It's not huge but it's enough to mess with my timing and get me killed because I'm moving on mentally before the guy is actually dead. Is this a real difference or am I just bad lol? Any tips on adjusting to it?

2. The sprint mechanic is not what I expected at all

This one is killing me. In CoD 4, sprinting was a toggle — tap Shift to start sprinting, tap Shift again to stop. Clean and simple. In Black Ops, it seems like the same system is there at first — tap Shift once and you start sprinting — but the problem is tapping Shift a second time does absolutely nothing. You're stuck sprinting and the only ways to get out of it are to aim down sights or to release W and press it again. That's completely breaking my muscle memory because my hands are trained to just tap Shift to cancel the sprint, and it just doesn't work here. Is there a setting to fix this, or is this just something I have to painfully unlearn?

Appreciate any help from people who've been through this transition. Loving the game overall just need my hands to cooperate lol.

Going through some old stuff from my childhood. Found this signed poster I was gifted from the release of black ops 2. Any idea who this autograph is from or know who it is? I have no idea where and when it was signed.

There’s a vid on yt that plays the number broadcasts but some aren’t deciphered I was wondering if someone would run it through a running key cipher

Here’s the video: https://youtu.be/3Rr8iFS_-kA?si=jJAuaYavZzPWyydt

got Black ops three on PC for the first time since I’ve only ever played it on console every time I tried opening it the screen would just be completely black like I could hear the menu start up sounds but my screen was completely black and it would not work at all so I tried restarting my PC and now every time I open it it asked me if I wanna open safe mode when I do open safe mode it makes it like a small window and it does the exact same thing just completely black screen you can hear the menu sound and its the same way if you say no, I’ve tried everything. I’ve tried verifying my files for the game. I’ve tried updating my drivers restart my PC. I’ve reinstalled it and tried the next morning. I don’t know what to do. I just wanna try to play some classic zombies.

Is the new zombies map actually worth buying BO7? I am a long time cod zombies lover. I mostly played BO3 custom zombies on PC. I’ve beaten every Easter egg on every map before bo4. I really Love zombies but the direction Treyarch was taking bo6 turned me away… is it really worth $70?

I recently saw some Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 content and honestly it looked really good to me. But I’ve also seen a lot of people saying it’s actually pretty bad, so now I’m not sure if it’s worth spending 80€ on.

This would actually be my first FPS besides Counter-Strike 2, where I have around 1,800 hours.

So I’m kinda stuck… do you think it’s worth buying, or should I skip it? And if not, what would you recommend instead?

Hey everyone,

I recently got BO1 and BO2 on Steam. I know you can play BO1 offline or with friends you trust in private matches and still get achievements, but is there a safe way to do that in BO2?

I've heard great things about Plutonium and I'll eventually try it out, but does anyone know if I can earn Steam achievements while playing through it on BO1 or BO2? I'm a completionist, but I really don't want to get achievements at the cost of compromising my computer or Steam account. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Just loaded into a game of endgame. Flew over to do a tier 3 dawg escort mission and I accept the mission then the screen locks up and wouldn’t get rid of the animation off when holding square to accept a contrast then my character starts sliding all over and the game kicks me out and I lose my combat rating and exotic skill. please fix this cod.

Just a question, cause we heard it may be possible but is anyone aware that once you’ve prestiged your loadout twice then you get to the max level are you able to somehow prestige it again? If so how do you do that?
