Anyone playing COD probably noticed how crappy it is



fyp

cod4 was awesome at release date. It was ahead of its time, just like cod6 sp.

on the other hand I have not bought a new pc since id's last game. That's a true "quaker"
(but i will for portal 2 and i have a xbox)

COD games are brilliant single player sure, but why even bother with MP? It was fairly obvious they couldn't care less about PC MP when it's p2p...

cod4 mp was $$$$$$$$$$$$$, to the point now every single "realistic" fps game copies it.

cod6 mp was also good, but it wasn't as revolutionary as cod4 and ofc this is if you forget about all known issues.

I expect cod7 mp to be how cod6 mp should have been.

btw I really appreciate content in a fps game. Maybe it's because quake live has none.

COD4 mp was meh. It did alright on a casual scale, but competitively it's meh.

? what? lol
cod4 actually has a ton of competition, lots of lans with nice prizemoney, still has a crapload of teams today oO
there are still like 15k teams in cb ladders and there are lans each month

I didn't mean the scene, I meant the actual gameplay competitively. It's just... meh

bad company 2 is far better!

so are there dedicated servers for black ops or not ?

They are so bad I wish they just used the MW2 lobby stuff.

smells like fail once again, then ...

haha i dunno what these guys are talking about. the only thing bad about the game is the terrible netcode that comes along with porting from 360. this will happen for every single cross-platform game for the rest of your life. that's what my fixes correct. the problem is if everyone isn't using them you'll hiccup when you get near them. most people playing s&d or in priv matches have their shit together. pubs are kinda eh but it's due to the individual players who aren't fixing their game. the servers are good, i didn't play mw2 because there were no dedis. these dedis have everything up to reserve slots that dont make it stay 17/18 booting ppl every time they try to join, it's pw reservers.

yeah I'm not registering to some random forum just to find out sorry.

===========================
Dhal's config_mp changes
===========================
A lot of people think adjusting cfg's or ini's is "going too far". These typically won't change regardless of the game getting a patch. Keep in mind this is a corporation advertising their game to be considered "playable" with the minimum requirements, and puts the weight of the game becoming "unplayable" on the users shoulders by going out of his way to make adjustments. Also I believe the porting process includes converting the = to xbox cfg/ini, in which also compensate for a large number of people playing on wireless.
Your computer is the car, the applications are the tracks it travels on. Being able to tune the track to meet the criteria of the car is what you're doing here, even if you could change/tune your car it would be restricted by the governor which is basically what the cfg/ini is. No one has the same car but they all use the same track.
===========================

If you have win7 this should really make a big difference if you follow all the steps exactly. It might look like an overwhelming amount of shit to do but it's really 2-3 things, you just need to check a couple settings to make sure you're running the right file.

If you have xp/vista for real do the cpl mousefix if you havent already (I hear there's a chance it doesn't work with xp sp4 or vista sp3).


===========================

Make sure vsync is off in your gfx card control panel

===========================

Before making any changes you may want to back up your original config_mp, when you are done making the changes you should change it to read only, and back up your optimized cfg (email them to yourself).

There are charts/lists floating around that show preferred FoV for specific resolutions. For 16:10 1680 x 1050 I use 90 which is the max. Someone suggested 104 at that res, but it seems 90 is the max in bo. Take my resolution into consideration when adjusting your cfg/ini if it is different. I have a 22.3" LCD Monitor. Also I use a Razer Naga with 1000Hz polling, and DPI turned down to 1600. Some settings may need some adjustment to take that into account also.
I use pretty high sensetivity, regardless of your preference i recommend setting the following 4 lines to the same number regardless of what you set your sensitivity to.
seta m_forward ".025"
seta m_pitch ".025"
seta m_side ".025"
seta m_yaw ".025"
and
seta m_filter "0"
===========================

At least one of the below was set to something other than 0 but I can't remember which. Accel, and Smooth are two things I always Ctrl+F immediately)
cl_mouseAccel "0" (dont remember what these were at by default, didn't know i was gonna do a write up at the time)
cg_viewZSmoothingMax "0" (dont remember what these were at by default, didn't know i was gonna do a write up at the time)
cg_viewZSmoothingMin "0" (dont remember what these were at by default, didn't know i was gonna do a write up at the time)
cg_viewZSmoothingTime "0" (dont remember what these were at by default, didn't know i was gonna do a write up at the time)
cg_adsZoomToggleStyle "0" (was 1)

Things I think are the minimum changes anyone should make to their mp_config
seta sv_maxRate "25000" (was 5000)
com_maxfps "125" (was 85)
seta snaps "30" (20)
ui_allowFov "1"
cg_fov_default "90"
cg_fov_default_thirdperson "90"
cg_motionblur_duration "0" (2500)
cg_motionblur_fadeout "0" (500)
r_motionblur_maxblur "0" (30)
r_motionblur_numberOfSamples "0" (1)
cg_flareVisionSetFadeDuration "0" (was 2000)
cg_drawFPS "On" (was Off)
cl_maxPing "80" (800)
cl_pitchspeed "0" (140)
cl_yawspeed "0" (140)
r_gfxopt_dynamic_foliage "0" (1)
seta sensitivity "15" (on-the-fly sensetivity adjustments to avoid having to bring up menu mid-game; open console w/ ` syntax for bo is /sensitivity ##)
r_displayRefresh "60 Hz" (was 75, i'm personally matching w/ my desktops highest choice w/ the hide box unchecked on an LCD (wouldn't do this with CRT but who has those anymore))
r_gamma "2.5" (1.16666 - this is with my gfx card gamma at 1.0 so adjust accordingly if you always have high gamma for other games or what not, if your monitor is particularly dark you might go 3 but at that point it gets a bit washy..although it does seem to make models stand out more but almost disorienting)

Annoyances, first two might save a small chunk of unecessary page file
com_startupIntroPlayed "0" (was 1)
com_first_time_pc "0" (was 1)
cg_overheadNamesFont "1" (2)
cg_overheadNamesSize "0.5" (0.5)
cg_connectionIconSize "1" (was 4)
cg_cursorHints "2" (was 4)
cg_seatHintFadeTime "0" (was 2000)
cg_drawHoldBreathHint "0" (was 1)
cg_hintFadeTime "20" (was 100)
cg_hudDamageIconTime "0" was 2000
cg_hudGrenadeIconHeight "10" was 25
cg_hudGrenadeIconMaxHeight "30" (was 104)
cg_hudGrenadeIconOffset "200" (was 50)
compassFriendlyHeight "9" (18.75 - this lets you see exactly where your guys are)
compassFriendlyWidth "9" (18.75 - this lets you see exactly where your guys are)
compassStaticImageUpdateTime "0" (5000)
===========================

It seems once you get your game going smooth, you can tell who has made adjustments and who hasn't. When you come up on the people who haven't it will still choke you up a bit. So if the majority of the server has the minimum listed above, or even half of them it's pretty good. People will, surprisingly quickly, do whatever they think will possibly make their game smoother. Their shit running smoother, makes your shit run smoother.

so fov 90 works for u ?

ban plz
