Is this game any good on the PC?
Been playing it for a week. It's perfect. Nothing wrong, no problems. IWNet is totally fine. MP works fine and is really fun and addictive. If you're the type of guy who doesn't know/care what dedicated servers are. And you're the type who only plays MP to quickly join a game, and get in the zone by gunning, then get the game. It's similar to CS. Very fun game. I like to so much I've decided to get COD4 as well.
I tried but it still has the whiff of "noob gun" around it from the Call of Duty 4 days plus, I hate burst fire.
How is it the n000b gun? I find it better than SCAR/M4A. More effective in killing. I can't wait to unlock my AK-47. I wonder why don't people use it much?

A few weeks ago I would probably have been very positive towards it but now, not so much. The host advantage is insane and it's a major problem when you combine Keyboard and mouse, because these allow for extreme reaction times and insane accuracy and that is really bummer when the host wins every duel he's in - So I'd say, stay the hell away and get the console versions if possible, at least with a controller the host advantage is negligible.

I guess no one uses M16? I find it the best to be honest. I used to pick a either M4A or SCAR, no that I unlocked M16, I only use that.

I started using it once I unlocked it, and haven't used any other gun since. Sometimes it's not that great for CQC, but, thats why I carry a shotgun or pistol along with it, hehe.

Depends entirely on the host I find, if they are closer to me (UK) the difference is negligible, but if they are in Germany or France I'm going to loose the 1v1. As you said, the mouse lets you zero in on people faster due to the high DPI. I can spin round 180 degrees and have someone's head in my sights in half a second. It'd take me much longer with the sticks.

But when it comes down to it. If you can't aim with the ****ty sticks like my self. Get the PC version or you'll just end up frustrating your self till you quit.

It's a running label from CoD4, no idea how it got it though. I don't use it my self. Vector & ACR for me. High fire rates and accuracy. I'll do the rest. :)

Yeah, I remember hearing some sort of rumor a while back that he liked to play as a 6 year old girl or something, just to screw with other gamers when he killed them. Not sure where I read that at though, but I certainly wouldn't doubt it, given his character. :p

Stupid question...what's the difference between Red Dot sight and the holographic sight?

Holographic is bigger and has a purdy circle. Other than that? Sweet FA.

PC Users! If you're like me and HATE the backround music in MP.

Rename mssmp3.asi to mssmp3.bak.

Job done. :)

From what I have read is there is no real big difference other than looks. :/ So your safe to go with either one.

Correct me if I am wrong though.

Holographic is just a lot more cluttered, it's just to provide some more variation and nothing else - The real-world difference between the two scopes are not portrayed in the game anyway.

I also put in an order for the 360 version - I genuinely want to play the game and I do have this craving but the PC version is useless.

I give you a week at max before you abandon the 360 version because: "It's ****" and join us back on the PC. :)

Talking of the PC version, just noticed this:

IW pretty much crowbarred the console out of the PC version and told the public about it, then it's funny it should show up in the user manual on a mapped key. ( It doesn't work )

Oh...

    • Apple releases iOS 27 Beta 2 for developers and power users

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Apple releases iOS 27 Beta 2 for developers and power users by Aditya Tiwari It's been a couple of weeks since Apple previewed the iOS 27 update during the WWDC official keynote. The upcoming iOS version will bring even more refinements to the Liquid Glass design language, an upgraded Siri AI assistant, and several new Apple Intelligence features. Interestingly, the latest WWDC keynote was different than previous years. Apple has released the iOS 27 beta 2 (build 24A5370h) for developers who want to test the new features being baked for the iPhone and optimize their apps. If you're interested in downloading the latest beta, go to Settings > General > Software Update > beta Updates, then choose iOS 27 Developer Beta. You can download the latest iOS 27 beta on more than 30 supported iPhones. Make sure you know what you are doing since developer betas can be unstable and unexpected at times. If you want to be on the safer side, you can wait for the public beta, which will arrive next month. It's been a while since Apple discontinued its AirPort router lineup. Now, the company said in the iOS 27 beta 2 release notes that the AirPort Utility is deprecated and won't be available for new downloads from the App Store. Apple added that if you previously downloaded the app, you can re-download it. However, the functionality isn't guaranteed when using the AirPort Utility on iOS 27 or later. Speaking of known issues, Apple said that the Portrait mode blur effect might render incorrectly for photos; you may be unable to stop an alarm from the lock screen without unlocking your iPhone; the "Add a Control" button in Control Center edit mode might appear small or clipped. There are several new features in iOS 27 beta 2 as well. It comes with Neural Engine improvements for Apple Intelligence, including better performance when loading large models over 1GB. HomeKit Secure Video recordings are processed on-device and through Private Cloud Compute for video descriptions and search, when Apple Intelligence is enabled in the Home app. That said, you can also download the second betas of macOS 27 Golden Gate, iPadOS 27, watchOS 27, and other Apple operating systems.
    • AMD 26.6.2 driver brings FSR 4.1 support to RDNA 3 RX 7000 series graphics cards

      FSR 4.1 is insanely superior to FSR 3. Like, FSR 4.1 Performance looks better than FSR 3.1 Quality. It's great they are finally enabling it for RX 7000 users. A bit late, but I guess better late than never.

      Was it the way the cars handled in 4? or was it the choices you had to make?

      Exactly.
    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      By Parallax Abstraction · Posted

      I understand the position Valve is in with hardware pricing thanks to the AI bubble, but as others have said, this is DOA at this price point. There's no world in which a machine at that performance level is worth that price. My girlfriend's a console gamer and after meeting me, wanted to try PC but wanted something she could use on her TV with a controller. The Steam Machine is basically tailor made for her, but only at what it would have cost before the hardware crisis. I took my old Lenovo Legion laptop with a Ryzen 5800H and a 3060 Mobile 8GB, put Bazzite on it and it does the same thing with the games she's interested in very well. She still likes the Steam Machine, but won't be touching it until component prices are back in the sane range. I know Valve isn't a charity, but I don't know why they're not willing to at least partially subsidize this device or even take a loss on it during the component crisis, just to build some market share. Then again, the Steam Deck is also a complete ripoff at its current price and they can barely keep them in stock so...
