Personally i find the call of duty games to be really fun to play, its the only multiplayer game i spend hours playing it with friends but one thing that annoys me the most about the developers of these titiles is.. why cant they make a perfect game?? why cant a series that sells so much, a series that keep breaking sales record all over the world make a playable game? weather its Infinity Ward or treyarch it dosent look like their even trying to make a good game.. i mean whats with the lag, glitches, connection errors? is it that hard for them to make a game lag free or glitch free like Killzone? Halo? BC2? Uncharted? and list goes on!

anyone regret buying Black Ops now? the last update they released for the game wasnt of a help at all :x

Uh, yeah, I think you might have a little trouble making a perfect glitch-free lag-free game too, if you had a userbase of millions swarming on it and playing it obsessively from day one, with many of them actively trying to find glitches to exploit right off the bat....

And no, BC2 has not been lag-free or glitch-free. Far from it.

My complaint is in Hardcore Capture the Flag... The matches can end up being really long (which I don't have a problem with), but what sucks is over that long period if you get like 3 team kills it automatically kicks you. One misplaced napalm strong and your gone. They need to figure out a better system bc people that aren't trying to be gay are getting kicked out. There is team killing in hardcore for a reason...

If they made a perfect game, then people wouldn't have to buy next year's Call of Duty installment in hopes that all their complaints from the last game are addressed. IW and Treyarch probably do it on purpose

CoD definitely needs a new network code or something. its sad that after making so many CoD games the devs still havent figured out how to fix connection errors and lag, in fact i would say it has got worse with every CoD release after CoD4 lol

Do you really think it's easy to make changes to a game and fix problems? Playing with the code is very dangerous, even if a small change was made, it has to be tested to make sure it doesn't break another part of the game. And even then, a company can never be 100% sure that changing the code didn't produce a game breaking glitch hidden deep in the game that will be found by some gamer doing random stuff.

Here's the deal buddy, believe it or not paying to play online makes somewhat of a difference because i have found that i get kicked off cod WAYYY more often if i playin on PS3 than when i play it on my 360....it sucks, i havnt even gotten the patch yet but now that your saying it didnt improve anything my hopes for black ops are pretty much trashed...Id say the devs know they can get the sales just because the name "Call of Duty" is worth millions, i can almost gauruntee u theyve stopped caring bout' us and making a good game...its like increased greed with increased power -_-

Big party merges are the only problems i've had from a connection standpoint. Hitboxes would be another issue that needs fixing.

Even Activision can't afford 5 million snotty 10 year olds and teenage stoners to test their game before they put it out...I don't know about the post-release support because I don't have BLOPS yet, but I don't blame them at all for shipping an imperfect game. BC2 would probably have the same issues if it had a userbase like COD (and did have some of them shortly after release, ever seen this?)

Uncharted gets pretty bad online. Have no clue what you're talking about.

Black Ops got old for me, I played only an hour or so of the multiplayer and realized I was playing nearly exactly the same game as MW2.

When you have a game that is as big as COD it's nearly impossible to iron out all the bugs. Treyarch is trying hard to fix them all but the community isn't really helping. It also doesn't help that Activision only gives Treyarch 2 years to finish the game.

Halo/BC2 was hardly glitch free. Halo 2 had that BxR glitch. Thankfully the other games had a open beta. I can't speak too much for BC2 though I still find EA servers to be terrible.(I only played BC2 on the 360 so I'm not sure how it's like on the other systems) I had better connection with BO. I can't speak for Killzone but I doubt the game was glitch free.

I'm not having that much problems with Black Ops. It's one of the most balance COD game to be made. All the weapons have recoil, most of the weapons are balanced(and the weapons that people considered OP is getting nerfed.), KS are harder to get and they just nerfed the chopper. I sometime have connection problems but nothing gamebreaking.

Making a perfect game isn't possible.

CoD has found great success through a formula of addictive unlocks and broken/laggy online gameplay.

I'm sure they don't wan to jinx themselves by putting out a quality product.

Have you played Cata?

Perfect example of "keeping a game fresh".

How many Call of Booty games more will it take before people realize their getting screwed? Seven? Eight more maybe?

With the new 1.04 Patch, it has gotten noticeably worse IMO. They added 400 contracts but at the cost of connection errors far to often now

I hate the matchmaking in BO so much. I always am in a game with only 2 bars I never understand it
