Call of Duty: Black Ops II Wii U Update Hits A Rocky Patch

Patches. PATCHES!! We don't need no stinkin Patches!!!

a patch to correct another patch, that corrected another patch, that corrected another patch...

sigh Hates how Nintendo consoles always get the short end of the stick.... well, when it comes to third-parties....

I miss the GameCube days....

Nobody cares about this garbage game.

I love this game, it's great fun online. Very well designed too, and the maps have some real variety to them. There's a lot of fun to be had in a balanced competitive multiplayer like this

Here's hoping the dlc comes our way too, and the amount of patches can be pressed down to a minimum in the process.

The generation of games isn't going to make for good retro games in the future with all the problems and no patching will be available then...

Went home for lunch and was off to play some COD, but I got the update instead. It was a small one fortunately and I played 3 rounds with no issues before coming back to work. I would still like to know what the change-logs are for these.

I have updated this game, and played it for 1 round before doing some business. Here's what I found so far:
1- Home menu is now accessible in every mode, Warning: Pressing home button will disconnect your network from cod server.
2- Loading seems to be improved by little.

I haven't had a chance to use wiimote to find out if they fixed the sensitivity issues. I'll try out later.

@SuperCharlie78 Sounds like Microsoft is involved some how. Is there blue screens of death while playing COD??? Quick, someone tap alt-ctrl-delete, pronto!

@Azooooz So when you hit the "Home" button, it actually accesses the "Home menu"!? If so, that's a good thing, especially IF it takes a screen shot for Miiverse, that would be nice...but either way, it would be nice to access Miiverse from multiplayer quicker.

I'll check it out in a bit, as I have been really enjoying the online. Playing via the GamePad, while the TV is being used for Netflix or a Wii Virtual Console game (on the Wii), is awesome. Throw in some headphones, and it's great for sitting in the same room as your wife, who isn't distracted by all the game noise.

Was there ever an update to fix local multiplayer??
If two people are playing, 1 person can use the GamePad and the other person can use the full screen...BUT if 3 or more players are playing locally, everyone needs to split the TV screen. Why can't 1 player use the GamePad and the other two split the screen? >.<

Anyone else having a problem in Zombies local co-op where the tablet-holder can't use grenades, and the TV-user can't use items?

@Svengoolie

Actually, this is one of the best games on the WiiU, if not, the best game on it.

@Jellitoe Hell no. Call of Doody is worthless.

I actually like CoD on the Wii U. Such a small minority of people actually use headphones that u don't have to worry about lil kids screaming in the mic:)

Wassup with that damn DLC, I bought the hoping they wouldn't shaft us Nintendo users but I guess that's not the case.

hoping Nuketown 2025 will be thrown in with our DLC pack coming in February, or knowing activision .. they will make us pay extra for it :-/

@CoffeeWithGames Yes, you can press home button on multiplayer, but that will also result in disconnecting from the server.

@Svengoolie I understand you dont like CoD. I dont like it either, but please keep your opinion to yourself. It could offend people who like CoD a lot.

Yeah, thanks Treyarc and Activison, the game is even glitchier now.
I'm getting glitches with throwing grenades, concusion, and using the knife.

@Svengoolie How wrong you are. I very much care about this game.

Another bug is when you go into the barracks go under calling card and over to weapons you will have unlocked all the peacekeeper calling cards. Shines a little hope onto revolution coming to wii u.

In my calling cards I have all 3 Peackeeper calling cards!

Even with all the bad and confusion the patch has caused, It has led to us being able to use the home button on every mode allowing for screen shots in multiplayer and zombies however this even still needs some work since it disconnects you from online!

I love being able to play a first person shooter at 30+fps on the small gamepad screen, it looks awesome. The UAV requires more points now, and I believe that the bouncing betty's take slightly longer to explode.

I second Eryan64's comment. Seriously, does anyone know if 3-4 local multiplayer was fixed so that the person on the gamepad actually has the gamepad screen while the other 2 have split screen on tv?

I don't care for the Call of Duty series anyway. It is soooo repetitive, along with Halo.....
That's why I buy Nintendo consoles for fun and originality

I know that the cod franchise is xbox friendly, but why does ninty always have to get ripped off? It doesnt matter how hard they chase these devs, the devs still dont care for nintendo and what they stand for....the gameing experience ! If they did they wouldnt pussyfoot around with these so called updates and tiptoe around the whole dlc thing......jesus christ ubisoft is doing it with ac3 why cant activision? Hey treyarch.......u wanna be taken seriously like infinity ward.......GET UR poo TOGETHER !!!!!!!

Wait a minute, so lack of DLC is confirmed?
