Call of Duty: Black Ops - PC General Discussion

Featured 29313 Views 930 Posts PC Gaming


I noticed that there wasn't a general discussion on this game so here it is.
It's not far away now so who getting this game when released? I know MW2 left a sour taste with PC gamers and I still haven't bothered with that game...but I'm tempted to give this one a chance if they have dedicated servers.
Fixed [Shifty] better work tonight.
It'd be nice if they'd fix the bloody game so it's playable.

I see you're having The Problem too. :(

My fix didn't work for you? :(

BJ2 said: for those of you who havent done his yet, in the menu screen, look at your hands and mash the space bar. You will break free. Go over to the computer and type in:
doa
and it will start up an awesomely fun arcade zombie shooter



Holding down the spacebar works too.
My problems gone!, Game is now amazing and never any lag. Im playing Maxed out 16x aa with Shadows Off, i found out myself that having the shadows off greatly improved framerate and basically doubled it for me. Also multiplayer for me is running silky smooth with no lag, and i got up to rank 16 in one afternoon [Derp]

Did you do anything or did it just randomly start working?

It seems like your problem was genuine graphical quality lag, then. Others, like me, are having CPU-related lag and changing graphical settings doesn't help or hinder.

Although, do you realise you could turn AA off and turn shadows back on, and it might be the same? I don't use AA at high resolutions because it's kind of redundant.

Nah my game runs over 60 fps maxed no shadows with 16x aa, but itll run slower if i have lowest settings no aa and shadows on, round 30fps, go figure. :S

For once having a higher end system is helping! Normally you cop all the bugs and shit.

I know! I am impressed and also dismayed.

When it's the other way round you just want to curl up in a ball and cry.
It runs awesomely maxed out for me too :D
I hate so many of you. X_X
Thing is, I have the same issues whether it's lowest settings or highest, with no differences in between except appearance.

So when are we going to have a game, scott :P

In-game that would translate as:

Wh... n ar... e go... ingtohavea... game, sc... tt.
Create a wager match mode in your private match game...for when the game actually works.

Same with me. Really annoying how it lags out when I see someone. I'm holding down the fire button and 1 bullet comes out, but due to the freezing no more bullets follow and then I die.
Nothing and speedy were hearing my rage last night.
Try this, you guys.

Increases FPS from 10 to 25-30 on mine. Random freezes still occur and multiplayer is beyond screwed.
if there isn't a fix for the CPU hog business by next weekend they will have lost face already.
People looking to change the singleplayer FOV, go here.
