Took me a few tries of Veteran and once I passed it I was pretty happy. The game is so dumb on Veteran all I see is grenades so sick of them.

I was able to get through the tank and plane mission without dying but I didn't kill 45 Zeros. After trying the Heart mission for about an hour, I gave up and decided to get my 45 Zeros before going to bed. I ended up getting 50 :D At this point, I have the last two missions to complete on Veteran and then I'm done. Getting bombarded with grenades sucks, what sucks even more is when I would run to different spots to crouch and hear the continuous clanks of grenades being thrown at me... :no:

tanks aren't so bad. I was worried they would kill the game myself, but after playing for a while, they are way to easy to avoid, and you can just pick off a person manning the machine gun on top.

Completed the game again but this time on hardened difficulty. The second last level was kinda tough to complete. Germans were keep respawing. I killed over 150-200 germans in that level. :p

Too bad the game has poor replay value. :(

Bwahahaha... I just completed Veteran. Downfall wasn't nearly as tough as Heart of Reich. In fact, Downfall was much like what the game should've been on Veteran. Heart of Reich was retarded, Downfall was spot on. Now to get the last two death cards and try my best to get the Blue Ribbon.

Edit: Got the cards, but man... this game just pulled one on me. I just got done with a competitive coop on Blowtorch and Corkscrew and was in first place, but one of the players timed out before the story portion at the end finished, therefor the mission didn't end with four people, but three, thus robbing me from the last achievement. Joygasm!

They really need to patch the under the map crap on Castle. It's getting to the point I just quit any games played on that map. It's a shame, too, cause I like the map.

Had a good time playing with you the brief time we did play, definitely have to play some more in the future.

Yeah, sorry. The best time for me to play is early in the day after work (since I work a very early shift) or on my days off. Last night I was expecting a call from my girlfriend, but not that soon and on the weekends, I have no time to play at all since I spend them with her.

It was nice playing with people I could communicate with, though. Instead of saying I need help only to watch a guy run in the opposite direction.

so uh.. There were some servers up 2 days ago that were "Powerleveling Servers" I mean some people were getting 20k xp per round, and jumping 10-15 levels in a round.. It was so cheating.....

I hope they fix that soon.

Sorry to DirtyLarry and anyone else I bailed on. My gf just got a new phone and I was walking her through how to unlock it and do this and that (windows mobile device) so I got frustrated and just shut off the damn console.

Got the game today when game shopping.

Played only about 15-20 mins, first campaign mission then a bit on-line.

The first on-line match I went into I got killed quite a lot, but there were quite a few levels which I thought was a bit daft since surely it should be kept to reasonably low levels, but ah well.

Second game I started getting use to it, came top, which was pretty good since I was the lowest and there was a 20 something level on there.

But my gawd, on-line should be called "Shoot the dogs mode" or something, I have a feeling I am going to see a lot more of those damn dogs in the coming days.

I played it on the regular difficulty before my brother got this game for me for Christmas, but let me just say that Treyarch royally messed up the Veteran difficulty with the grenade spamming. Making a game cheap to make it harder is just stupid.

I still stand by my original assessment, too: not by any means a bad game, but inferior to Infinity Ward's versions and does nothing to advance the series.

Actually that's the signature of Veteran difficulty of all Call of Duty games, mass grenade spamming.

Though yes, Treyarch have royally messed up Veteran mode, just not by grenade spamming.

      The fact that memory in general is so high I have to take a loan out to build a computer now is just beyond stupid. Who's really to blame here? Low supply or high demand?
    • Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5

      By Copernic · Posted

      Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 by Razvan Serea Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) is a utility for completely removing AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL graphics drivers and related packages from your system, attempting to eliminate all leftovers (including registry entries, folders and files, driver store). Though AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL drivers can usually be removed via the Windows Control Panel, this uninstaller tool was created for situations where standard uninstall fails, or when you need to fully remove NVIDIA or ATI graphics card drivers. After using this driver cleaner, your system will behave as though it’s the first time you’re installing a new driver—similar to a fresh Windows installation. As with all such tools, we recommend creating a restore point beforehand, allowing you to undo changes if issues arise. If you're having trouble installing an older or newer driver, try it—there are reports that it resolves such problems. Recommended usage: The tool can be used in Normal mode but for absolute stability when using DDU, Safemode is always the best. Make a backup or a system restore (but it should normally be pretty safe). It is best to exclude the DDU folder completely from any security software to avoid issues. You do NOT need to uninstall the driver prior using DDU. Requirements: .NET Framework 4.8 Compatible with Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11 (32-bit or 64-bit) Note: Using on Insider Preview builds is at your own risk. Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 changelog: Added 'Reset to recommended' button for the Options. General fixes and improvements.

WACUP 1.99.51.24568 Preview changelog: Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when doing some of the drag + drop actions within the media library window Fixed a loading crash seen related to a problem with some of the artwork cache image files being restored which should now be better handled allowing for the bad image to be removed without it failing Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when the internal metadata cache clearing is triggered which could block the main ui thread for too long with this now being moved to a background thread Fixed some performance issues with some of the methods related to determining artwork support which mainly affected the local library import / refresh (this is still slower for some compared to other players because there's more data & artwork aspects being checked for which means doing more processing on a single file despite the best of attempts to reduce duplicate / heavy processing where possible) Fixed a crash with the JTFE based missing files hotkey which no one seems to have used for an age for this to appear (maybe it's time to seriously consider stripping out features that aren't being used) Fixed how some of the file types which use extra information to reference their sub-songs is handled which was preventing some from being correctly resolved back to their base file (noticed fixing above) Fixed an issue with the handling of files with underscores in their filepath which wasn't being correctly handled causing some of the filename to be lost when shown as the title if title reading is delayed Fixed a few things that might be behind NotSoDirect not being stable for some setups though am still not certain that the changes done for this are going to fully resolve the problem from the crash reports Fixed the OS toast handling when there's no prior shortcut in the OS start menu to now create the shortcut (needed to allow the yes/no buttons for the new build / post-release toast) to be done as a hidden one so it's less likely to cause annoyance for those not wanting to see it whilst still allowing this less than ideal OS api implementation requirement to be met to avoid toasts without the needed buttons Fixed a regression when moving from taglib1 to taglib2 which broke some of the handling in place to allow for external programs to still access files when wacup has a held open cached instance of the file Everything else Updated cppwinrt (gen_win10shell.dll) to 3.0.260520.1 (26 May 2026) Updated libcurl (libcurl.dll) to 8.2.1 (24 Jun 2026) Updated Monkey's Audio (in_ape.dll) to 13.15 (28 Jun 2026) Updated mpg123 (mpg123.dll) to 1.33.6 (6 Jun 2026) Updated OpenSSL (libcurl.dll) to 3.5.7 (9 Jun 2026) Updated pugixml to 1.16 (16 Jun 2026) Updated taglib (tag2.dll) to 2.3.0 (11 May 2026) Updated vgmstream (in_vgmstream.dll) to the latest Git commit from 28 Jun 2026 Download: WACUP 64-bit | 9.6 MB (Freeware) Download: WACUP 32-bit View: WACUP Website | Screenshots Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
