Leo Tolstoy once said, “The two most powerful warriors are patience and time.” Ask any PlayStation gamer who missed out on the Call of Duty: Black Ops double XP weekend a few weeks ago, and they’ll tell you: Leo knew what he was talking about. While other platforms soaked up the extra experience points, PS3 gamers had to hang in there while PlayStation put everything in order behind the scenes. In cases like that, patience isn’t a virtue — patience is a pain in the butt.
As the double-XP date loomed nearer, more and more PlayStation gamers wondered if they’d be able to take part in the festivities, and Treyarch – developer of Black Ops – swore to fans that they would not be forgotten. This weekend, they’re quickly making good on that promise, with a double-XP period that lasts from this Friday, May 20th at 10am all the way through the weekend and beyond – the good stuff keeps coming until 10am on Tuesday the 24th. What’s more, that’s going to be even sweeter thanks to a Nuketown 24/7 playlist that’s being added just for the event. Nuketown is my favorite map because it’s small and chaotic – and the close confines often result in high kill counts, which can really push you to the next level of Prestige in a hurry during a bonus XP weekend. It’s a fast, intense map – but don’t let that stop you from uncovering some of Nuketown’s hidden secrets.
So if the two most powerful warriors are patience and time…well, you’ve been patient, and it took some time. This weekend, enjoy being the warrior.
why do i not have double xp or a 24/7 nuketown room? i was told 10 a.m.
Awwwwwwww :(((
No Nuketown 24/7 for Hardcore S&D
I would love to know how we can get into the 24/7 playlist of Nuketown. Do we have to download a patch? Please explain.
BTW: COD Black Ops iz the BesT
in my opinion kill zone 1-2-3 sucks sorry
weekend hello read
I wish there was a double exp for MW2.
nevermind its up now
2:09pm over here in NC. still no double xp what is going on. you forgot about us or your just pulling are leg haha jokes over
@ Dan Amrich Has 3arc sent the patch to Sony for review yet?
Awesome. Thanks Sony/Treyarch/Activision.
yes i new it they had to do it\
black ops is the only game i’ve regretted buying good thing i sold it. MW2 is funner and better in every way
Yes!! Definately prestiging this weekend!! :)
we should be able to get quad xp or triple xp at least because of all that down time we had to go threw!
You know…that strikes me as greedy. PS3 gamers are being given the same chance that all other players got. That’s fair, and I’m glad Treyarch offered to do it (because, you know, they didn’t have to, but they felt it was the right thing to do).
