anuj Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 I didn't have ANY problems with slowdown. It ran beautifully. I just wish I knew why in teh hell they'd set up a MG42 pointed at a f*cking door. Goddamn, that was not funny. Beautiful, great-running demo. I just wish it lasted longer.

You put in /cg_drawfps 1 in the console to see your FPS? Because somehow, when I thought I had around the 50 FPS, it displayed not more than 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf68k Posted September 28, 2005 Author Share Posted September 28, 2005 The pre-arm nades and sprinting is something I already miss from UO I got some nice kills with pre-armed nades, it even helped to win a round doing that...guy was trying to disarm the explosives and him and me were the last 2 alive, he killed me just as I pre-armed a nade and it landed near the explosives, and during his disarm of the the frag went off killing him so my side won. I didn't notice, but as anyone noticed if shell shock is still in there? I kind of like the health thing although I haven't completely figured it out.

Pancho the great Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 I really dont understand why they would take the sprint and nade cooking abilities out. They really were what I enjoyed about UO. After a wee gander I found this info...Apologies if already posted. "Well i took a look at the files from he demo and found much more info's than the last previews! It was not easy to find this information's, if you post a News about if give me Credit and link to www.callofduty-news.de Ok here we go: -There will be a Shotgun in Sp and MP.(The M1897 Trench Gun) -There will be no Flamethrower -Punkbuster will be supported. (well at least there are entry's for punkbuster in the Mp server menu) -There will be a Scoped Lee-Enfield in SP and MP -It will have Vocie Chat(Talking about a headset) in Mp -You can ignore the Voice Chat -Found this message "Server is not a demo server.", will they release a MP Demo? -There is a Favorite Server List in MP -COD2 has some kind of clan support:You can add your Clan name, clan motto, clan hp and more. -There is no quick chat option like "enemy tank spotted", it really looks like there will be no tanks in MP. -there are ranks in MP from Private to General like in UO. MP Modes are: -Deathmatch -Team Deathmatch -Capture the Flag -Headquarters -Search and Destroy -Squad Warfare Some info's about Squad Warfare: -There is a Platoon leader on every Site -There are Squads on every Site -the Platon leader can give the squads waypoints like in BF2" MAPS (final): mp_breakout mp_brecourt mp_burgundy mp_carentan mp_dawnville mp_decoy mp_downtown mp_farmhouse mp_leningrad mp_matmata mp_railyard mp_toujane mp_trainstation Sounds good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mafia Righthand_Man Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 (edited) I played again and I noticed a German officer prone on a roof lift his Luger up and blind fire towards us. Kinda neat. Also, be sure that the German you killed is dead. I shot one just now and he fell down on his back. Then he leaned up slowly, took out his Luger and aimed for me but I shot him just before he was going to cap my ass. That's a neat feature. Does anyone know if the .45 is in the demo?

Wolf68k Posted September 29, 2005 Author Share Posted September 29, 2005 (edited) mp_brecourtmp_carentan mp_dawnville mp_railyard Are you kidding me? What should be a new game and they are bringing those freaking maps back. I am sick to death of those maps. Everytime my clan played a scrim the other team would 9 times out of 10 pick dawnville (1st) I forget what would get picked most after that. The biggest arguement for playing dawnville that I heard, "because we know dawnville best." That's because you don't play anything but dawnville you schmuck. It wouldn't surprise me if these people are the kind that would rather have sex missionary style with the lights off and only on the weekends. I always wanted to pick maps that most teams don't know because I know they don't know them and we didn't know them a great deal but better than most because we actually played them in pub and practice. carentan - I don't have too much of a problem with but it does get played too much. brecourt - I know I know it but it's been so long I just can't picture it in my head off hand because it's been months since I've played. railyard - I always get railyard and depot confused based on just the name, once I'm in the game and I see it I know what I'm looking at in about half a second. But both railyard and depot get played a hell of a lot. Edited September 29, 2005 by wolf68k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsuroki Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 God damn why did I go to bed early. I now have a 2 hour wait. But it will be worth it! Tsuro!.....GA will have a server up once this game is out, so you better be there Biatch...you too deez f*cking aye. When my first paycheque comes in, I'm getting a gig of ram and CoD/UO so I can get back with GA. Then on my next paycheque, a GeForce 6800LE. So I'll be good to go for CoD:2!

GTA3Freak-2001 Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Well I get my FPS going from as low as 15 and up to 40 or 50 when indoors and when there's not so much smoke. That's running 1280x1024, No AA, No AF, and on DX9. My specs: Athlon XP 2000+, 1GB (PC2100), GeForce 6600GT 128MB(AGP) For the most part is was playable just not perfect, haven't tried DX7 mode.

Wolf68k Posted September 29, 2005 Author Share Posted September 29, 2005 @GTA3Freak-2001 Unless your CPU is running 266MHz FSB then your RAM is choking your system. I know that's my case right now. I've got a XP 3200+ at 400MHz FSB and PC2100/DDR266 RAM @Waste But that's a completely custom map, so that's to be expected. Personally I've never heard of that map until you said something just now.

My friend, who has a slightly better system then me (same basic parts, but his Radion is a Pro version) but he gets suck-ass frame rates if he does DX 9 but I dont. Make shure youv got the latest drivers. He said he had old drivers and I dont know if getting the newer ones helped him or not. Metal up your ass!

GTA3Freak-2001 Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Yeah I know my RAM is a let down, blame it on the crappy ECS mobo. I am not sure what FSB it runs at but its mostly probably not 266. @Alienant - Yeah I've got the latest, 88.01 I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sooo looking forward to it. @Tsuro: A 6800LE? I don't know what your budget is but you might want to consider a 6600GT. btw: Apparently an Easter Egg on the SP Demo: Edited September 29, 2005 by vALKYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf68k Posted September 30, 2005 Author Share Posted September 30, 2005 (edited) Here's a nice little egg.Play the demo. Look for a tank with no one on it, usually start off behind you and to the right. Notice the name in green and grey. Play the demo over again and look for the same tank, the name has changed.

tommiegunz Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 All gamers are only allowed to say that: Call of Duty 2 WILL ROCK YOUR WORLD I had, yes had, due some scratches on the original disk, Call of Duty. And that was a classic one, by that I mean it will not be forgotten in the games history. The graphics, the sound, the feeling etc. it is breathtaking. Im downloading now.

anuj Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Bump. Game's been released, I'm surprised I had to bump this back up. Also, edited demo out of topic title. This game is amazing. Very much a worthy sequel. Just like the original, you are a cog in a war machine. The sound (with Creative EAX 3 + surround sound) is just plain surreal. The graphics are nice. The weapons are given good detail, and the environments are top notch. There are two strange things, though. When I get into an indoor area, the framerate takes a hit. When I zoom a scoped weapon, the same thing happens. I haven't tweaked anything besides resolution yet, though. This is a Nazi building. This Nazi building need not exist. Naturally, TNT makes a cameo. Great game. Very immersive. Definitely recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MyMothersMySister Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I've been encouraged by Alfresco to get this. I played the demo and enjoyed it although I prefer the modern warfare to WW2 style game I think I might just pester Niki for it this weekend. Great screenies 'nuj.

Cojawfee Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 (edited) I've been having lots of crazy fun with this game. The only bad thing is that I have to play with direct x seven mode (Why the hell is there no DX 8 choice?), so the water looks like crap. I'll get some screenshots uploaded once explorer stops chugging along like molasses at 0 Kelvin. http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0005.jpg http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0012.jpg http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0019.jpg http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0026.jpg http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0027.jpg http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0100.jpg http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0119.jpg http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0125.jpg http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0129.jpg http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0145.jpg http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0151.jpg http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0158.jpg http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0169.jpg http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0174.jpg http://www.cojawfee.com/pictures/cod2shots/shot0175.jpg Edited October 31, 2005 by Cojawfee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
