Went from 12 prestige to 0 overnight :(

Hi Team,

 

Was trying to get to 15. Logged in last night and finished off some contracts, logged in today and i've somehow been reset back to 0 exp. Pretty annoyed as i'm sure you can imagine. Is it possible to restore my account back to prestige 12 (even if I don't get back to level 32). Easily proven because I have over 8000 kills on one of the servers I frequent.

Black ops LAG FIX!

Hi. i dont know if u know this but it is worth a try..

Ok, let's begin!                    Solution 1
(For WIN7) may work for others..
Go to Computer and right click the black ops disc then go to Resources> Redist and install vcredist_x86 then go to the DirectX folder and install DXSETUP and restart computer, If that doesnt work try this...

Solution 2

Start black ops MP or SP depends for which u want to fix press Alt+Tab so u come to the desktop.
Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete and open the task manager, then go to Processes? then right click the BlackOps.Exe or BlackOpsMP.exe for the MP
Then go to choose priority and choose Realtime then accept. After you've done that Right click Steam.exe in the task manager> Processes and go to Choose priority and choose Low!

Hope it helps
You must do Solution 2 every time u start the game.

Dear Activision,

I got problems with the game i bought from you.
Call of Duty Black Ops
This game gives me a Fatal Error message in my Console (outside the game) And i got some times a DirectX error but i installed the newest DirectX but this seems nothing to fix.

I hope you could help me with this.

Best Regards
Patrick

Update your Visual C++ files here. If it gives you a chose to Repair or Uninstall, please Repair.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?familyid=A5C84275-3B97-4AB7-A 40D-3802B2AF5FC2

DirectX10 and DirectX 11 are not updates to DX 9, they are separate libraries. You still need to keep DirectX9 up to date by running dxsetup.exe from the extracted files.

•You can verify the integrity of the game files in the Steam client. In the Steam client right-click on the game and select properties. Click on the local files tab and click the "Verify integrity of game cache" button. You will need to do this for the single player and multiplayer game executables.

Shut down your background programs using the following procedure:
1. Click on your start button and then go to the RUN option.
2. In the open area type MSCONFIG
3. When the MSCONFIG program comes up click on the tab marked STARTUP
4. Uncheck all background programs in this list. They are non-essential.
5. Click on Apply and then close this window.
6. Reboot your system and when you get back to Windows, before you do anything, run another dxdiag report. Save the txt file.
7. Try the game again.



Customer (patrick 't hoen)     11/18/2010 10:57 AM
Nope sorry sir i still got crashes?

Is there any news about when the update will come?
I guess this is an technical problem from the server side?

Thanks



Response (Nick Bee)     11/18/2010 02:11 PM
Send us a copy of your system information. Go to Start->Programs->Accessories->System Tools->System Information. This will bring up the system information tool. Go to the top menu and select file->Save. This will save a file with all of your system information. Save it to your desktop. You can name it sysinfo.nfo. Attach this file to the support incident.



Customer (patrick 't hoen)     11/18/2010 02:43 PM
By here my sysinfo.nfo file

I guess this error is not from my system but we will know it soon..

Response (Marc Weissenberg)     11/19/2010 02:21 PM
Hello Patrick,

I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. There are certain restrictions in Windows Vista/Windows 7 that may prevent files from executing properly. Please ensure that the following are disabled:

1. UAC (User Access Control) http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/disable-user-account-control-uac-th e-easy-way-on-windows-vista/
2. Windows Firewall http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/522-windows-firewall-turn-off.html
3. DEP (Data Execution Prevention) http://www.recipester.org/Recipe:Enable_or_Disable_DEP_in_Windows_7_27019737
4. Windows Defender http://www.simplehelp.net/2009/03/11/how-to-disable-windows-defender-in-windows- 7/

1. Open Windows Explorer and navigate to: C:\program files (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\call of duty black ops\players

2. Locate and delete config.cfg and config_mp.cfg


Next, Verify the File Integrity of your game within Steam:

File Integrity Check:

1. Load Steam
2. From the Library section, right-click on the game and select Properties from the menu.

Answer that ******* and stop ruining mother ******* games w00t......
If Black Ops is going down like they did with Modern Warfare 2 than please give me my money back!



Response (Ethan Allen)     11/26/2010 07:25 AM
Patrick,

I have notice from your DxDiag your display driver is from 10-16 and there is a updated driver from 10-25. Update your video driver to the 10-25 version and make sure it's being displayed in the DxDiag.

Unfortunately, we cannot handle refunds directly, as our distributors take the product back in bulk from retailers. You will have to return the product to where purchase was made.



Customer (patrick 't hoen)     11/27/2010 03:03 PM
I can't get my money back because they wont take it back....

This is because of the CD-Key ...
So **** you



Customer (patrick 't hoen)     11/27/2010 03:11 PM
O and by the way. Do you really think this update will fix this ******* problem? Get a ******* life fool! Its just this ******* pc version of the game that is so horrible... We all know xbox is more for the gamers and we all know you and Treyach and what Infinityward did IGNORE THE PC SO THEY KNOW WE GOT THERE MONEY! Yeah sure do that but there will be a day where no one of the pc will buy your game and than you will wish you never ignored us. Hope whole Activision will lose there money and i hope they are going down! for always.



Customer (patrick 't hoen)     11/27/2010 04:38 PM
So here is my new DxDiag.txt with the newest drivers!
Can you now explain me why i still crash ingame?
Do i ******* need to record it?
Is it so hard to code a game good?
Is it so hard to give us a good update instead of bullshit?

I guess it is !



Look man all they can say is: post ur dxdiag. update your pc. etc
CAN'T THEY SEE THAT IT IS THE ******* GAME zomg.

Treyach/Activision

"Crouch-only" Servers - WTF?

Today I joined a crouch-only server - as in you're not allowed to sprint, stand up, or prone. Just crouch.

I got kicked for sprinting.
This was a ranked server - is this allowed? It seems kind of pathetic and ridiculous, especially given that it wasn't in the server title.

So I purchased BO2 and was very dissapointed in the game. The main thing I hated was the small maps and spawns. I returned the game and I am now thinking about buying BO1 but not sure if many people play it still or not?

PC vs. Xbox

Not sure if its already been discussed or not, but before you kiddies decide to start forum flaming, look at how many double posts there are, this one isn't going to change anything.

Why could we not like combine xbox and PC. Now, what I mean is, having PC players to play AGAINST Xbox360 players, most of my friends and family play on xbox or ps3, but I am 100% PC gamer, why couldn't we just connect them using like games for windows live or something?

Radiant

Hi,

Just thought i'd let the PC gamers of black ops that this matter is still being pressed against Activision.

Here's my message:

 

[

Hi Heather,

This isn't a question about 'how to use the mod tools' etc. I am asking why tools such as radiant haven't been released. Is it because you feel the creativity of the community would surpass the team at Treyarch and people wouldn't buy the map packs?

 

 

Radiant needs to be released for PC because it was promised to us by @PCDev about half a year ago. I bought the map packs on the idea that we would eventually be able to make our own mods not only for multiplayer but also maps and mods for single player/zombies like in CoD WaW.

 

 

Personally I think that the theory behind not releasing radiant is ridiculous because if Black Ops DID have full mod support, then people would buy this game, including the DLC, and this would massively increase the longevity of the game itself.

 

 

If you dont release radiant and unlock full mod support for Black Ops, then I, (and a lot of other PC gamers), would feel very cheated and mislead into buying this game and it's DLC with the broken promise of Radiant.

 

 

Unless Radiant is released for Black Ops, then no longer shall I be buying your games, DLC and other content; you will have lost yourself another valuable customer.

 

 

Please forward this message on to the appropriate people,

]

 

As the message states: we need radiant to increase the longevity of black ops zombies. I have not yet bought mw3 for pc, and will not until radiant is released.

 

Update:

 

Thank you for contacting Activision Customer Support. I will definitely forward this for you, thank you for your time.

 

 

If you need to contact us or update your ticket please visit http://activision.custhelp.com.

 

Sincerely,

 

Heather

Hopefully we can see some custom zombie maps for black ops in the near future.... (however unlikely)

Campaign Won't Save! Can a dev please answer to acknowledge!

$

As the title says, my campaign won't save. I have read on a few other forums with people having the same problem. I am very disappointed. As much as I love multiplayer and zombies, I would like to be able to play the campaign as well. I have a legit copy of the game and everything else works fine. I will start up the first mission, beat it, save and exit to the menu, check to make sure my progress is saved (which it is), but when I completely exit the game and start it back up, it says I have never even started the campaign.

Would a dev please acknowledge that this is a problem and that they are trying to patch or if someone else has had this problem and there is an easy fix, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks.

Call of Duty black ops server is not availible at this time

From Steam forum

"Roniclepower" said

Hey all.This is a problem me and a few friends have been getting since black ops was released.

"The problem would go as such:
In the middle of trying to play anything online over Black Ops the game would automatically disconnect me and say: Call of Duty black ops server is not availible at this time and reccomend me to their site for updates.

What i already know is it is not a regional problem. Several Gamespot forums i have read have said this is a irregular problem and it happens randomly to people who bought the game so far as i can tell. This is a huge problem because it limits the game i just payed for down to singleplayer, and as fun as it is i've already finished it and some parts are still glitchy on harder difficulties, but anyway.

From what i have read on this possible error is that Activision reccomended PS3 users to take down router firewalls, but nothing was mentioned for PC's and i am not using any firewalls at this time. Also, some people have rumored that the problem was related to treyarch keeping people out of multiplayer to avoid allout server crashing near the launch.

This is a serious problem and unless treyarch can release a fix sooner or later there's no way in hell i'm buying anymore of this series. If anyone can contribute information and correct me as to what the problem IS, or also state issues realated to this one or provide some help it would be greatly appreciated. "



I have the same problem anyone knows a solution

How To fix the FRAMERATE DROP?

$
0
0
Yeah, one more of the 10000 threads about Black Ops issues, i know you guys are sick about this kind of thread, but i am curious about this.
So, like many people, i'm having a big drop in my fps in places or maps like havana and cracked, and no matter what i'm doing, this problem dont go away.
These drops only happens in some areas of these maps, and it is very annoying, i know that is normal to have a drop in your framerate in open areas that need your graphic card and CPU  to work more, but, in Black Ops i'm having constantly 60+ fps in every place but these.
So, i'm running in 1900x1080, Extra Textures, 16x AA, no Anistropic and no Shadows.
I've triyed everything, turn dow the resolution, the Anti-Aliasing, shadow warming, Shadows ON-OFF, i've tryied different configs (config.mp), all the tweks i've searched in this forum, like editing the config.mp, r_multiGpu, multithreadedevice, i've triyed everything.
My Drivers are up to date and i triyed the beta drivers from nVidia too.
My Configuration: Windows 7 x64
nVidia GTX 460 (275.33 drivers)
intel Core i5 3.33Ghz
6 GB RAM
Sorry, i dont know the name and model of my Mother-Board. That's it. And the reason of this thread, i want to know if anybody does know a fix or a way to get out of these annoiyng framerate drops, i know that the game runs almost perfect on Windows XP, but this is something that i cant do, and a overlock (or overclock, i dont know the right name) of my cpu neither.
I will aprecciate any help you guys could give me, and sorry about my english, i live in Brazil and i have only 4 years of english course.
Thanks.

Hi

im really bored, doing a placement year and really all i have to do in the evenings untill i move into a house is watch french TV  and football manage, O and i dont have internet.

i have no idea whats good on PC or whatnot. so really, im asking you guys for a game i can play offline, its available on steam(so i can download at work), preferably a shooter, and possibly get me ready to play BO, because ive never played an fps with mouse and keyboard... and if any of you 3D gamers have any games to recomend that look great in 3d...

i was thinking about buying cod4, but id rather spend my money on a game i havnt already completed...

thanks
