GarethRDR Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I had a seriously bad day yesterday. Lag city. Does anyone know if snow/cold weather affect broadband connections? Maybe. I once told a client their database wasn't working because there was "snow on the lines". It's amazing what people will believe if you sound confident.

GarethRDR Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 About to fail my first contract; 50 kills in 40 minutes on the WA2100 and I'll probably manage about 30-35. I hate the sniper rifles. The PSG-1 is passable (just) but the rest are beyond dire. Even on hardcore, they suck (or I suck... it's probably a bit of both in fairness). That said, I took the M60 for a test yesterday; my christ, what a gun. For the sake of sacrificing a bit of the Stoner's range/accuracy, you get an even quicker kill (and you can always throw a grip on it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiggyrichard Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Getting into the zombies a bit more now, i still think they have made the maps way too big with too many rooms and doors to open. Also what does the toy monkey do when you get it out of a weapons box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiggyrichard Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 "Near all the mystery box spawns there is a map showing the cinema. It also shows the location of the mystery box: there are green lights on the map, that display the location." Is there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't played Zombies on this CoD yet but I guess it will be the same as WaW, basically they attract the zombies so they all gather round it then it blows up.

desensitized43 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I had a seriously bad day yesterday. Lag city. Does anyone know if snow/cold weather affect broadband connections? Maybe. I once told a client their database wasn't working because there was "snow on the lines". It's amazing what people will believe if you sound confident. If you have an adsl connection then yes bad weather affects broadband speed. I work in technical support for a small B2B ISP and i know a customer who cant get any connection at all if it rains hard enough due to how long his line is and signal degradation in storms.

Thats right, its great for an onslaught and a great way of getting a crawler which by now you should know that getting crawlers is a big key to getting through the game :winkold: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b6bloke Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I had a seriously bad day yesterday. Lag city. Does anyone know if snow/cold weather affect broadband connections? Had the same and really struggled to find a game too. I was really got battered last night, the lag was terrible and noticed that the MW2 glitch of moving out the way and still being killed has started to happen which I found didn't happen until recently. you see someone, move into cover and you are dead and on the replay it shows that you never moved! My mate swears that its all about playing people transatlatic and they are a few micro seconds in front of us but I think its a mod. :evil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's lag, and it's not to do with different countries either, it's just based on your connection to the host. The killcams are glitchy as **** though, they don't show smoke, don't show gun recoil as much as what is actually existant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Risso Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 The kill cams are the worst part of the game in my view, a definite step back from MW2. They also don't show the killer taking any damage if you hit him a couple of times before dying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Killcams hae always been fucke, even on MW2. If you got killed by someone with a heartbeat sensor, you'd appear on their radar.. even if you had Ninja on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiggyrichard Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 Loving the zombies now...apart from when you get paired with complete idiots who just open doors for the sake of it and instead of sticking together just run off on their own little killing mission.

Risso Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 Getting the pro perks on this can be **** ridiculous. For Ghost Pro I have to destroy a sentry gun. I haven't seen one of those in about the last 30 games I've played, and when one does come up there's an unholy rush to destroy it as everybody seems to need it. Is there a game mode where you tend to see them used more than other games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
