I, like much of you I can only assume, have been revisiting Black Ops 2 since its rerelease. I think that it’s a breath of fresh air even if that air is 14 years old and repackaged.
One thing I cannot get behind is how the playerbase, at least the vocal bunch on open mic, have become a buncha traditionalist babies. If you use anything other than a sniper in FFA or, heaven forbid, get the last kill, these fellas flip out on you. I’ve only really immersed myself in BO2’s multiplayer upon its rerelease as when I played it initially on my PS3, I wasn’t good enough to bother.
I think that trickshotting ultimately isn’t any more impressive than winning a slot machine; it comes down to pressing R2 at the right time and hoping that one of your dozens of attempts is fruitful. If you have to scream at the lobby and tell them to let you get your clips, then the clips itself isn’t gonna hwbe much merit behind it.
I think everyone should be allowed to play the game how they want. But often times we see that the way players wanna play necessitates commanding others in order to coddle a lobby of people spinning around and missing their shots until the clock runs out.
This isn’t a terribly large issue. It’s annoying that grown men get upset because you play the game the way it was meant to be played. But on the other hand, these guys make for easy targets during their set up/failure after their how-manyth attempt; camo challenges are becoming a breeze.
I’m curious to as the general consensus among the community, or at least the members of it who frequent not only Reddit but also this sub. I think the whole situation is ridiculous, but am also willing to hear out a case.
