More First Strike news. God this looks good, only just received the email about this from our good friends at Treyarch but I will be analysing this in full detail in a few hours after a good sleep.
For the meantime check the vid! See what you think.

First Strike vid!
Need I say more? Looks like it could offer alot more opportunities for snipers on berlin wall and Discovery. And the interactive environments look epic too; check out the auto turrets and the exploding bridge! I wonder if there's anything else in there for us to find.
Here's to the first of feb!

Patch 1.06
Patch 1.06 is just days away and so i felt it right to give you guys abit of information on whats to be expected.
The main things we can expect to see a change in are,
The AK47u with grip will have the re-center speed adjusted, at the moment its too quick and even though its beneficial to us it will make it slightly harder to keep a good killstreak if you can't aim on target as quick.
Changes to Kill Credits: In simple terms this means the person who floors their victim and said victim seems to be using Second Chance, where as before someone could come in for the cheap kill and you would be left standing with just as assist :/ yeah i know its harsh but that wont be the case for long. After the 1.06 patch the person who steals the kill will take the assist.
For me this is going to be what makes the newest patch worth having, as every day i feel like rage quitting when i keep getting my kills stolen just because people feel the need to use second chance.
Changes to the RC car, okay this isn't a definite as different sites seem to have opposite sources, so at present its just a rumour but the minimum and maximum damage radius will be evaluated and possibly reduced and there could even be a tweak to the speed.
Now i can't speak for everyone but i for one would love to see the actual amount of kills needed to acquire the RC car increased however treyarch have said "Changing the kill requirement isn't feasible at this time" :((
I was hoping for a lot more but at least its something.

Kowloon could be interesting.
Yes it's me again. Two posts in one day? Utter madness, you'd think I was a student or something.
Anyway, on quickly pottering around the internet it appears that Kowloon as mentioned below in Snorlax's post is one of the most recently added maps to the DLC with the 4 other maps being viewable on the disk amongst the hidden data that only the techno-freaks know how to find.
As we all know Kowloon isn't quite a "hidden" map considerring you play it within the single player and it most definitely was one of my favourite parts of the single player. It will be an enclosed environment at a guess and most likely will have a few tiers.
What would be epic however is the balcony shootout section being the main base of the map (where you had to run between balcony's before falling to the floor) it could supply a few choke points and could be a good section for snipers. If it is just quite enclosed I can see it being sub machine gun heaven.
One thing I love about this Call of duty is that of the activity outside the maps (the missile on launch, the train on WMD, the saws on radiation etc.) I wonder whether the plane seen in Kowloon will make an appearance in the map? We can only hope.
Thoughts below ladies and gents....

Famas' everywhere.
So I've just returned from my holiday to Paris! After getting stopped at every security check-in I realised that carrying an Ak through border control was a bad move. None the less I have returned to Britain and picked up my controller last night to join snorlax for a quick game.
One thing that was obvious in France was the mass of soldiers carrying famas-es! The weapon of France most definitely. Think about how patriotic you're being to the French the next time you choose the famas within your loadout.
In other news:
From what myself and snorlax have discovered our K:D's are suffering a bit on Cracked. A map with large open spaces complicated by smaller enclosed spaces with dead end rooms and camping spots. We've also taken to playing sabotage quite a bit recently which not only helps by keeping the spawns pretty standard and set goals that the entire team can push forward for. The only problem I feel with sabotage is that it can be over very quickly. Also only having an attempt from one spawn can be a bit annoying over time when you've pushed forward many times and the entire team seems incapable of pushing forward with you.
Anywho to help any of you in the same situation as this here is a map that could well come in use:

First Strike Map Pack
Since it has been officially announced now, i should really go into a little more detail about it.
On the 1st of February 2011 Xbox 360 gamers will get the first taste of the new maps.
The actual DLC includes 4 new maps and one new zombie map
Berlin Wall
Discovery
Stadium
Kowloon
and of course the zombie map will be called Ascension
The map which stands out the most to me seems to be 'stadium', not much is known, however it appears to be in a hockey rink style stadium. Now i already have a picture in my head of what this will look like and i can imagine it being one of the smallest maps, perhaps even rivalling nuketown :O
Some sad news for you PS3 and PC gamers though, you won't be getting your hands on these new maps until about a month later.

My First Official Post.
Well Well Well, it has taken some time but I'm finally making my first post, it won't be anything special just general statistics on my account and a low down of how I play BUT first some good news.
The Very first Download Content for black ops has been given an official release date (2nd February 2011)
I'm sure a lot of you, myself included are overly excited for that DLC!!
My STATS
-TIME PLAYED: 3d 12h 4m
-Win/Loss Ratio: 1.09
-Kill/Death Ratio: 1.30
-Prestige:3
So where do I start then, well them stats aren't brilliant however I would say there above average as the amount of players I come cross on Black ops who have negative everything.
My Favourite weapon is the AK47 or the L96 (Even though i'm still practising with it)
It may seem abit common i chose the AK47, but undoubtedly this gun packs a punch and a half, it has the range and power to match most weapons, yet at the same time it doesn't let you down when you need accuracy.
I also say the L96, not because I'm amazing with it, but because i really admire the weapon, and aim to master it before the next COD game (as i'm sure ShoooRn94 does as well :p)
My most used class as I write this post is an AK47u with grip, M1911, semtex, willy pete and jammer..and then Perks...Ghost, sleight of Hand Pro and Ninja!
This Is mainly due to the fact i haven't unlocked a gun that i am overly fond of at this point.
When i play by myself its mainly FFA, There is not big bias reason behind this, just something i have done with most FPS, however i do enjoy a good team game when ShoooRn94 is online, with us mostly playing TD or HQ.
Anyway I am going to play now so i can actully blog about my time on the game today, rather just some ramblings about stats and information you probably already knew.

Been a while.
So it's the first Monday of the year into 2011 and oOo Snorlax oOo is travelling back home where internet exists. It's been a while since he's been home on his own machine so I have no doubt he's looking forward to it.
Which brings me to todays major post: we will be online from around 9pm today (3/01/2011) invite either myself or oOo snorlax oOo to join you and we'll most likely ask you to have a game of team tactical or similar.
In the meantime snorlax remains seated in the back of a vehicle heading northwards. Whether or not he's travelling via black ops edition jeep wrangler is something of a mystery:
Mind you I am curious as to how many of these special editions wranglers have been sold so far.
In the meantime here's a little vid:

Happy New years iSuK-ians.
I hope you all enjoyed your christmas and had a very happy new year last night!
Enjoy your day off and I look forward to finally getting back online tonight and prestige-ing for the second time with any luck.
What did Santa bring you all? And if you're one of these new people who only just got Black ops, welcome and I look forward to fragging you ;-)
On that note if you are a newbie I found a suitable video:
I know full well snorlax has been using spy plane, care packages and the Blackbird. What a giving man he is. I mean this in a totally straight way of course.
Happy new year all, happy fragging.
