144fps, better FOV, and console lobbies? Yes please.

Probably need a beast of a machine to hit 144, these games are always so badly optimized for PC.

In Bllllops I was unable to hit a steady 144 with a 1080 and every graphics setting on the lowest possible

Nope! Humble Bundle and HOLD OFF because they just announced the bundle with RTX cards so the game will be get keys sold on eBay and poo poo for $25 I bet. Stay tuned on that. I posted in discord but here’s the link too: https://www.pcgamer.com/nvidia-is-bundling-call-of-duty-modern-warfare-with-its-geforce-rtx-gpus/

Nvidia has started forcing you to redeem games through gforce experience and they won't work unless you have the correct type of card. E.g. you'll already need to have an rtx.

Qmass posted:

if you are on PC make sure your res isn't scaling below 100% and disable AA - some bad default graphics settings going on. (also multiple kinds of motion blur you can disable)

Yeah, for some reason my system defaulted to everything on max and render on 50%

Game fun but my two complaints are certain parts are too dark and the gunsmith is cool but too many levels when it's so important for the game. At least start me with an item in each category. The naked ebr is beyond painful.

Can you explain the disable AA part? I noticed the scaling and bumped that up to the max it let me bump it up to.

With cross play I welcome the return of PC setting talk to the CoD thread.

Anti Aliasing removed jaggies. It takes some gpu effort that you probably want to spend on increasing frame rate.

You usually want to set render scale to 100%. That means if you're using a 1440p monitor it will render 1440p. Bumping it up to the max means it's rendering more pixels than it needs and downsampling, throwing away your gpus hard work.

With 100% render and every other setting low/off I hit a consistent 90ish frames at 1440p with a GTX 1080.

Tweaked my graphics so the game is playable on PC.

Maps are still dogshit, though I am thinking that is more because of how bad spawns are however there are too many open fire lanes to create any kind of defense/perimeter etc.

Name plates need to be reverted, super confusing and take up too much room.

Gun runner is the only good map in the demo.

Random gun thoughts

The mp5 with 10mm ammo is ridiculous. It's basically the mw2 ump.

The oden is what happens when someone take the m60 damage/rof and makes it an AR.

The propipe is fun but it's been severally nerfed. You only get one shot and the double lethal perk doesn't affect it. I don't think the recharge does either but can't remember.

Loot boxes are designed to exploit people and prey upon addictions. Saying "lol don't do it" is pretty cavalier.

The first TDM game I played I sat in a dark window in our spawn point and went 16-4 and got a chopper gunner. The next two games I tried moving around the map and went 1-13 and 3-10. I then turned my PS4 off. Every single aspect of this game is designed around camping and holding parts of the map to the point where it doesn't even feel like a CoD game to me. This makes Ghosts feel like Quake 2.

-Gunshots don't appear on the minimap.
-TTK is almost hardcore level.
-Footsteps are super loud.
-Dead silence is an activated skill with a long cooldown.
-Movement is super slow.
-Almost every single gun attachment increases ADS time.
-Windows are so dark you can't see people in them.
-'Open' map designs where every time you step around the corner there are a couple dozen lines of fire you can get instant killed from.
-Buildings on doors you have to open so everyone in the building can hear you coming in.

It's a nightmare if you liked the faster pace arcady shooter feel of most of the old CoDs.

I concur. The main maps I've had fun with are gunrunners, that middle Eastern one with all the verticality, and the picadilly circle one. These are the only ones I've seen that feel like mw2 to me. I think I also like HQ better than Dom in this game, because it forces people to move. I just wish the hq was randomized.

You totally can counter soundwhoring with Dead Silence. I watched streamers ambush people with it.

Dead Silence seems so much better than all the other field orders. It charges so fast, you don't make any noise, and in addition it gives you a speed boost.

Also, the R9 shotgun is super good/fun.

Was it MW3 that had Hotdog map? I'd run shield on that and people would get screaming angry even if I went like 8 and 18. That was also the first game with death mics. I was showing a friend how silly it was and he still laughs about the guy who couldn't articulate anything other than "gently caress you MosquitoJones!" after I killed him 3x in a row. New shield isn't quite as good as the old one but it's still great. If they'd increase the bash distance just a bit or make it so you threw tacs/lethals a bit faster it would be perfect.

They need to fix the spawn logic and get rid of every map except for Hackney Yard. The only enjoyment I get now is in GW...

Anyway this has been my whine post. Hit me up on PSN HkFalken

Hey, gun runner is fun too.

I have no idea why most of the maps have large open areas that you have to run across to get out of spawn or to the objective

Those charts are done by XclusiveAce in his YouTube videos, he doesn't polish them separately. I think he has the best CoD educational videos.

God I wish the origin 12 shotgun wasn't a piece of poo poo at anything other than knife someone in the face range

The origin isn't bad, it just suffers from the same problem shotguns usually do in CoD games which is that there's straight up "make the gun better" attachments that you have to unlock. Throwing on all the +damage range, better hipfire, and sprint to fire items makes it decent.

My shotgun opinion is colored by the fact I only play 24/7 shoothouse though

Am I correct in that reducing bullet velocity and effective range makes it easier to get longshots?

I was getting them real close that way with the SCAR but idk if it was science or just shoddy observation

No. Each weapon type has a set distance that is called a Longshot, attachments don't affect it so put on all the range extending stuff.

XclusiveAce has a YouTube video on it.
