PS3 Black Ops Post Patch 1.06 – “No Xbox Live Party Chat”?

RipTen: Confusing, but not completely unexpected by PS3 CoD Black Ops Players. This morning PS3 Players received Patch 1.06 to fix continued issues. A PS3 black Ops player named tben posted a very curious picture on the Official CoD: Black Ops Forums; a Picture clearly of a PS3 screen with the words “No Xbox Live Party Chat”.

Does anybody do QA testing on these patches?

Invadersims4931d ago

Nope, they give it to team of monkeys.

Invadersims4931d ago

But, technically there isn't any Xbox Live Party Chat so the game isn't exactly lying.

Istanbull4931d ago

Activision isn't even trying anymore, and you guys still play their games, sad.

Pixelated_Army4931d ago

Damn shame what they did to this franchise.

I_find_it_funny4931d ago

Activision and Treyarch laugh in your face, don't you see that?

They say, exact quotation: "PS3 version, lmao what? you gonna buy anyway"

rockleex4931d ago

They're basically saying:

"We gimped the PS3 version although World At War was equal on both systems, and you STILL buy it! We'll make fun of the PS3 version even more! MUUHAHAHAHAH!!!! >:D"

Darth_Bane794931d ago

What makes me more mad is the traffic all the people that buy this game cause in he morning http://www.treehugger.com/s...

saladthieves4931d ago (Edited 4931d ago )

How much fail can Treyarch deliver in less than 6 months?? ...and people keep on buying the game thinking that it's the best thing out there...clearly they are delusional. So much fail I have no words...just a picture

AngryTypingGuy4930d ago

I doubt Activision and Treyarch are purposely gimping the PS3 version. They kind of compete with Infinity Ward in a way, who I think is having a hand in developing the next Modern Warfare. This is just incompetence on their part, and makes them look foolish.

FinalSpartan4931d ago

thats pretty funny lol

Probably the player got his hopes up thinking PS3 had party chat.

xAlmostPro4931d ago

surely this is proof that they don't check the ps3 version/patches very well -_-

i also find it funny that everytime they patch it about another 6 issues arise, how can patching issues such as "freezing" cause the game to display code from the 360's version? :L

anywhooo

B-Real2064931d ago

The patches also go through Sony QA too.

Pixelated_Army4931d ago (Edited 4931d ago )

@B-Real

Sony's QA is to ensure that the supplied code won't have an adverse affect on their systems. This is more of an aesthetic problem and Treyach has total responsibility.

Foliage4931d ago

They'll find a way to blame Sony though...

Crazyglues4931d ago (Edited 4931d ago )

The sad part is that now you have the proof that the PS3 version is just a sloppy port of the Xbox360 version.. Wow

The Games does sales of over a billion dollars, and all Activision does is just makes a port for the PS3 version...

-Now no-one says F..U... PS3 consumers better then good old Activision.

Please People Don't Buy Modern Warfare3 -it's time to send Activision a Message -you can shove that F------ Port Up Your --- Activision!!..

etowntwo4931d ago

And yet year after year it's PS3's best selling game and most played game on PSN.

Crying gets your no where kid.

RockmanII74931d ago

It won't make a difference, there are millions of people that will buy MW3 regardless just because of the name.

sobekflakmonkey4931d ago

@the_best_player That pic is epic.

Dave13514931d ago

I dont wanna buy it lol but i love call of duty and dont wannt play it on 360 or pc cause of the controls. So sadly i will be buying it lol.

Crazyglues4931d ago (Edited 4931d ago )

@Dave1351

Oh my God Dave, say it aint so... LoL -Dave your are just proving the stereotype right that people will but it just because it's the next Call Of Duty... so sad

Well at least you were honest, here is a bubble Dave1351 for just keeping it real and being honest...

I can't be mad at you for that... -:)

-But I will indeed be passing, as I am sure the game is going to suck... SledgeHammer doesn't have a clue, + they didn't even have enough time.. this game is coming out this year so it's seriously rushed..

It's just basically going to be a skin pack for MW2 with some silly ideas put in to make it seem like it has new game-play. (like jump to the floor and roll, now you can roll after you jump to the floor... )

SnukaTheMan4931d ago

Hopeing that they get the better version..maybe..hopefully....b ut it will always the be the same as every ps3 game that is ported from the xbox...the inferior version.

xAlmostPro4930d ago

I dont plan on buying the next game, theres far to many great shooters coming out this year .. killzone 3, bulletstorm, homefront, crysis2, brink, resistance 3, socom4, uncharted 3..

the only way i'll get the next COD is if it gets good reviews and my friends say its good and then if its running well on ps3 after a month of release, then i'll get it lol

ngecenk4931d ago

Drjft4931d ago

I'm sure Treyarch will fix this if it's a mistake.

Joni-Ice4931d ago (Edited 4931d ago )

Yes they will fix it but theres no excuse anymore. The amount of mistakes has cost them credibility.

InTheLab4931d ago

I'm not a CoD hater...but when did Treyarch ever have any credibility? Google Treyarch's list of games. They're basically a B-Team developer that ports games to handhelds and other consoles.

When was the last time Treyarch created an IP? Yup...never. They've always inherited a well known franchise, made a few tweaks, and stamped Treyarch on the box.

I'm amazed everytime I see people praising Treyarch, when all they've done is take credit for the hardwork of better developers.

Soldierone4931d ago

@InTheLab Ive been saying that since the whole "Treyarch blows IW away" crap started.

Its true and you hit it spot on.

xAlmostPro4930d ago

yup they'll fix it so that the ps3 version displays xbox buttons on screen or something

bfenty4931d ago

So, Call of Duty Black Ops has just been one giant fail, all around. Let's be honest, this is not really even that surprising.

Joni-Ice4931d ago (Edited 4931d ago )

I'll say this....If this is real, it confirms me never buying Activision games again. Why? It shows the level and detail of work they do. They are not taking their time making and fixing their games. However if its a joke then shame on that person. Joke not funny.

Black ops 4, because it was the last cod of duty I was able to dominate with a +2 k/d ratio. Before all the freaking cheating started to happen. It was nice catching people off guard and shooting at them first and getting the kill. Unlike now, where I shoot people first, but they gun me down with less hits, less time, literally feels like they can kill me in a split second. At times, they are able to run away after me shooting them way more than necessary, yet, the second I'm spotted, I'm dead, there's no me running away to cover. They can do cartwheels, summersaults, backflips and gun you down perfectly. They can shoot you across the map with perfect accuracy. They can jump around like morons and gun you down without even having to correct their aim. They have superman split second perfect reactions. That's the best way to describe it, everything they do is spot on perfect. They can spam and spray (no praying) their gun from far away, because they have no recoil or bullet spread. It always feels like I have to aim and also correct my aim when moving around, while these pricks don't have to do the same.

And yes, I know how to play fps games. I dominated many fps games like: Resistance 1&2, kz 2&3, Socom, MAG, Crysis, Gotham City Impostors, blitz brigade etc. all with 2-4 k/d ratio. Kz2 (lag input controls) and resistance (no aim assist in resistance) being the hardest and were the games I reached either close to a 3 k/d ratio or above.

I truly got to enjoy blacks ops 4 and got my money's worth out of it. Afterwords, I would either stop playing cod games after a while, because of the cheating, or would skip buying cod games for a year or two before buying another.

Black Ops 1 Nuketown versus Cold War Nuketown '84

From DownSights: "Black Ops is not Black Ops without Nuketown. Following the tradition of releasing Nuketown for Black Ops games, the new Black Ops Cold War game also offers a revamped Nuketown called Nuketown '84.

Nuketown '84 has the same dimensions and map layout except for the aesthetics. The map's aesthetics have changed to fit the 80s theme, with destroyed buildings and graffiti-filled walls compared to a clean 50s suburban neighborhood seen in Black Ops 1."
