Quote: | Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 PC disc 2 is, for some, Mass Effect 2
Some who have bought the PC version of Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 have found the second disc is not home to the Treyarch shooter.
They have found that, instead, it is home to BioWare's science fiction role-playing shooter Mass Effect 2.
Gamers on Reddit, the Steam forum and the Call of Duty forum have reported the issue and complained that they are unable to complete the installation process as a result.
The cause is unknown, but it's clear that something went wrong somewhere along the production line.
The error will be a particular embarrassment to Activision. EA is of course its bitter publishing rival, and the two companies have been at loggerheads in recent years over former Call of Duty developers Jason West and Vince Zampella, now at EA working on an unannounced game.
Eurogamer has contacted Activision UK for comment.

It is a repost, but on that subject:
Would have been much better if it was MoH on the second disc

Multiplayer's both good and bad. Hitreg, lag, network connectivity, etc. is much more in line with the dedicated server system in Black Ops. Miles above MW3. It varies a bit from server to server, but mostly almost as good as BO1's. Surprising lack of explosives and no last stand, which is all good. Expect it to change a bit as people start unlocking stuff, but at least no grenade/rocket launchers. New perk system is also kinda neat; I'm sacrificing stuff( secondary weapon, tactical grenades) left and right to get what I want.
As for the bad stuff...Well, no proper dedicated servers for one. Not sure if they're stupid or just lazy/incompetent, but I don't see the problem in having both player-run(ranked) and matchmaking dedis. I expect my want for servers with admins will only increase as the cheaters start appearing.
Some other stuff, they've encrypted( or some shit) the mp settings file, which sucks. Hardcore mode, which is the only mode worth playing, is lacking Demolition, Domination, Headquarters AND KillConfirmed. More stupidity I guess. Maps are generally boring, far inferior to BO1's. Max players appears to be 12( maybe more in other game modes? I only play hc), which also sucks but is probably appropriate for the small maps. Probably also lots of smaller issues that I can't recall.
To sum up, vast improvement over MW3, but somewhat inferior to BO1 in the technical multiplayer aspect as well as maps. Except the performance, which is stellar.

strange because BO1 technical multiplayer aspect was AWFUL for like 1st month or more. laggy as fuck, connectiviy problem etc. anyway i liked the maps, modes and overall multiplayer atmoshphere in BO1. but engine/netcode and overall multi wise it wasnt good till like X patches and gigantic whine of the community.

So how does the mp system really works ? 3arc said something about it a month ago maybe, but i was really confusing - like matchmaking + dedicated servers, but u can't host one, or something simular to that ...
So basically can u choose some kind of servers and join them, or u just hit "play game", choose some game mode and wait for the matchmaking --> like it was in MW2 and MW3 ... !?
True Story!

Just choose game mode and it jumps to matchmaking.

So how is it with RU Cd-keys now? You have to use VPN every time you want to play or just to activate it?

finally started playing this morning, can anyone explain how weapon levels work now? How do i unlock attachements?
I'm using an assault rifle which I would like to unlock attachments for, but after killing dozens of people in a few rounds with that assault rifle, when I click on attachment the bar is still at weapon level one..... what the hell, I want my ACOG here...
any idea what I'm doing wrong here?

Copy files into steamapps/common and run the exe, steam will then check existing files and install the game.

14 goddamn gigabytes for a Quake 3 mod + shaders upgrade , for fuck's sake.
Oh well, still some hours to go before experiencing the most visceral experience of the year. After MoH nothing can (negatively) surprise me anymore xD

took me about 5 hours to finish the campaign and i would rate it 3/10
would've probably enjoyed it a lot more if the gameplay wasn't interrupted every 2 minutes by some cutscene or some douchebag babbling nonsense about how serious the situation is

They'd probably missed a few CEG checks and triggers. That's why I had a constant crash on the second mission right at the very spot everytime.
