I cant bring up my console for black ops. Downloaded the new update and still no luck? Any suggestions?

Im throwing my copy of Black Ops in the bin. Its all way too much trouble.
This game is total crap…it doesn't run properly on a pc…why in gods name don't they get a patch that works..it freezes at startup…black screen with fatal error and even if it gets past the first scene in the bar (once in about 15 tries) it just crashes. No way would I EVER buy a load of rubbish from this company again!!!!

Dumb question. Where can I download the patches?

I have had my PC on nearly 24/7 since 7th Feb. I restart Steam constantly and start balck ops constantly. Not to play but to start the patch download. I still have th eproblem that I cannot buy anything since I prestiged and the patch is supposed to fix that. I still have the problem but have no way of knowing if the patch is installed, downloading or what. I just need a frigging clue as to the version (patch) I have and if not 1.06 how the hell to get it. Once upoin a time steam let you see… Read more »
i love black ops it's so cool it's like my bestst game EVER i just whant to play it all dat so YA
i think the best thing that can happen is we all got our money back and compo for us playing this shitty game and fucking off and smashing shit up, telling the misses to fuck off im trying to kill some 1, ( lagging) i have fixed the game on every patch that comes out and posted on my youtube. now i face somthing new. i have gtx 280 i was getting 270+ fps looking into the sky now i get 160 max looking into the sky. i have the new nvidia drive the same time the patch i was… Read more »
F**k this game….i still having random freeze and crashes everytime i played multiplayer…. >=( MW2vis way better than BO…who agrees?
I would like my $65.97 back, I have other things to spend my money on. Install was a pain, forgot to tell the newbies they need to register with steam first (download would crash, error out before registering). During Campaigning I have reached the boat, jumped in and then I get a white screen, cannot proceed forward, it locks up my computer!. I am going to take whatever legal action to get my money back!
Call of Duty Black Ops: PC Patch Update Live — Problems Fixed?
This is so funny… There have been like 10 people asking where they can get the patch (besides directly from steam) and everyone is so self absorbed they can't take the two minutes to give the information. I see this on a lot of posts. It just cracks me up. I apologize to those of you who are seeking an external dl for this cause i don't know either and actually took about 20 min of my time to find it for ya's. I just can't believe the "me, me, me" attitude of these people who want to bitch about… Read more »
Run the update today after a fresh reload, totally useless, can't get beyond start up screen, waste of my money, and just causes pc to crash each time i attempt to play the game
I report these fraud people treyarch and activision to fedral custom protection beureau
All of u do the same like me and these Idioits will never do it again.
they made us buy it, though knowing it's not working and doesn't allow refund
am not going to buy anything has activision on it anymore.
Seriously guys as long as u just send them begging for fixing the game they wil do nothing, u already bought the game dear !!!!!!!!!
but that's how they'll fix it.
Fot Intel core i7 still the same problem, game freeze after some time i played +/- 15 min :S
i would love to return the game and buy one that works without crashing all the time, specially when you're on a roll…
i dont think they really care that some people have lag/choppy game play, they got the money already. They will just take their time to fix this problem.
Maybe you guys at trearch should talk to the people at infinity ward to find out how TRUE professionals make games…. Why would you release a game with so may untied ends? I'd much rather wait longer for the game than to be frustrated by it's lack of attention to detail. The patch helped a little, but again ya shouldn't need a patch of this magnitude for a freshly released game! Good game (in concept), But Major fail in the timing of an unfinished game release!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!
The patch SUCKS HARD man.
Since te new patch i have only errors and BlackOps.exe doesn't respond.
Hope they fix it fast witch a new patch. because now, Black Ops is the biggest FLOP of 2010
Where the hell is the patch?
Does anyone have the "Server disconnected – Steam connect failed" error after a few seconds of being in any servers?????
where can u download the pc patch?
I bought Call of Duty Black Ops the day after it came out for PC. I have downloaded the patches through steam and have done everything others posted online to get this game to play half way decently. Single-player is so bad it is unplayable. My CPU is running at 100 percent during multi-player mode and even that does not work for me. The lag and constant freeze ups during game play makes shooting virtually impossible. My system has over the system requirements for the game, so I know that is not the issue. I even turned all my resolution… Read more »
At the end of the redenzione mission i cant procced: The game does not go haed and remain stopped in the level. i have e pc quad core
What you guys don't realize is that they WANT the pc version to be bad. They want pc gaming to die for FPS so that everybody will want to say screw it and get a PS3. They purposely wrote bad coding so that pc gamers would have a hard time. They did have most of the kinks worked out, but then screwed it up because they don't like the fact that we have as much freedom as we do. They don't like spending some time to work out the pc, yet they will work overtime to make the consoles a… Read more »
In MP (multi-player) COD still freezes up, alot of people have the same complaint. Its not your computer, its COD. I really hope they'll put out a patch to fix this.. Im gettin really annoyed
Nope, it is still absolutely awful!
LOL you all just need better pc's ….
Played this game 2 times since release day, and is still as bad with the patch. Bloody unplayable. SUX. Mouse stutters even at loadup. Putting it in the cupboard till a new patch comes out.
This game needs some serious patching, game runs like a bag of shit, constantly crashes & load time are totally f%^ked up…
I have set my graphics back to '96, and in the best of cases it doesnt stutter every time i twist my mouse around. Best of cases I can aim for a head, and make one headshot, if by any luck the guaranteerd lag isn;t there for that millisecond. Great job Treyarch! I kinda thought this game would be good, with the dedicated servers announcement, I kinda expected some work put in for the pc-community…but hell no. It's quite ironic: I was desperatly awaiting BO, to escape MW2 with all the noob cheaters (which ruined that game), only to find… Read more »
if i could take this game back and get a refund total shit unistalled and wont be loading it again totaly unplayable treyarch and activision should be ashamed …..
Game is unplayable for me because of lag. Single player and multi. Even after patch and tweaking the config file.
Goddam you Treyarch, you theiving piece of shit.
The game works fine for me. The killcam is lagging a bit tho. The game seems to have some problem to run with W7. Most of my friends that are running it on 7 have those lag problems. I have none with vista. After the MW2 fiasco, BO couldnt have been worst anyway.
-.-
The quality on the theatermode uploads…
The respawn issue needs attention. Constantly re-spawning infront of oposition.
"Treyarch state that the overall performance has been improved for dual core and quad core users
" WHO THE FUCK EVEN USES SINGLE CORE CPU's ANYMORE? SUP INFINITY WARD #2?
I want to know where i can get the patch from and how? If it is from steam, do i have to activate the game with steam tog et the update? because i downloaded the game bcoz i heard it was bad and laggy from friends, and do i need to be logged in and activate the game to play online?
does anybody know how to patch black ops [PC] or is it automatically done? Also any news on the patch has it fixed problems, many thanks!
Patch worked for me, no lag, no freeze, perfect play.
My only problem is that i cannot "follow a friend into a match", the box is greyed out… and when i try to make a server a "favorite" it does not end up in my favorites list, but if i try to re-favorite it, it says it is already a favorite… I have all the filters off…
Intel i7 920@4.0GHz
GTX280 SLI
PC version runs fine for me… try changing your max packets
Before the patch the game was barely playable, after the patch all the microstuttering was gone and my lag went down from a constant 200 ping on every server i played to mostly 100 (60-150), great work, but it's a bit sad that they didn't iron this out before releasing the game, since it looks like it was pretty damn easy to fix.
where can u get the patch? that was the main topic…. answer that!!!!! who cares about your lame ass personal experiences
patch doesnt work samsung r580 i3 intel
I was running fine out of the box, except for a little laggy. Then the "patch" came out. It was installed, and seemed to fix alot of the lag issue. However, NOW, since the patch, I now have the game just shutting down to a black screen, and I get the "fatal error" message.
What is up and how do I fix it?
just like to say i installed the game with no patch iv had no problem at all the only prob i hav is if i minimize the game it stutters for 10/15 secs when i load it back up ,must b lucky ,also i hated MWF2 it looked awlfull this game rocks n has got my respect back for the COD series
this game has just got my respect back for the COD series i hated MWF2 it looked and played crap 1 of the worst games i played this is a serious game it got so much goin 4 it ,
ive been lucky and havnt had any problems at all even without the patch no problems ata all (been very luck by the sounds of it)

Battle field bad company 2 ftw!!
were can i get the patch
They must appologize to the community.
This cannot and wil not be accepted.
Again they have raped all there "loyal' customers so someone must pay for this huge failure
What an assholes to deliver this crappy work!
I will never buy any game from them
Still Horrible lag and random crashes.. fix this crap already!!
They make a beta, run out of money, start to sell it to get money, then finish the game. /cheer for tryarch making a game fail again (cod5 for example)
Patch only solved the server related lag for me, random game freezes still here, running x64 Windows 7 with a GTX260.
teras ..I agree as well…There is going to be no trust anymore with this latest released pile of shit ..It is worse than the last pile of shit they released…WTF WTF WTF
the patch reduced the lag,but the lag is still their to some degree..more fixing is required
I play the game for 15 to 20 min or so and then I get the bluescreen of death.I
end up needing to recover to a earlier restore point just to get windows back!
All drivers and sound cards are up to date and this dont make sence.
Windows 7 64 bit 563 gm of ram Nvidia 9800gt graphics card with a 800 power supply
quad core. Any one else have this problem?
got patch and still is horrible …
this is bullshit! how can a game of this magnitude and multimillion dollar cost be released and then not work for pc. Dont they test thier games before release? it is ridiculous to expect consumers to buy something they know is defective!! who agrees?
Where do you get the patch?
Can you download the patch? (outside steam)
– If you not are totally sure about it…
I'm on a dualcore laptop, ATI 4670 4gb ram, i was having a horrible time pre patch… as of now, at least trying it for 20 minutes i no longer had random screen freeze ups when someone was shooting at me, and I could actually look around without small lag spikes and fps jumping from 50 to 5… Seems like the problems are gone, more testing is required though.
Get a PS3, Problem Solved
It was alright when i played it earlier this evening, however im trying to play it now and i cant seem to play the game at all… i keep getting "Fatal Errors" or it stops responding on me. This game is pissing me off… not really happy with this game.
mines still teh same….im running vista 64 bit Amd quad core 2.20Ghz with ATI 5660 graphic card, 550 powersuppy. any help or how to update let me know. by the way i play on pc so please let or tell me how to update it. i've tried updating it on steam but nothing seem to changes.
The patch worked wonders, all of my problems are gone, and on most servers people have been cheering. They did a great job.
Yay can’t wait to turn it on and get the patch now!
tried after patch and still got choppy gameplay,high cpu usage very little gpu usage,this game does not seem to use the graphics card very much….Crazy !
Patch has not fixed the choppy gameplay issue.
is it available to download externally (not from steam).
