Call of Duty l Modern Warfare(Wii) Screens


Recommended Posts

So I'm the only one that thinks this looks good for a Wii?

I'm sorry but really? The Wii can produce some decent looking stuff for a standard definition console, this however looks like a 1st gen PS2 game.

The Wii is the most popular console ever, but nobody buys a Wii to play these kind of games. They buy a Wii so they can play with a couple friends in the same room. FPS games are designed for people who sit alone in their parents' baseroom 14 hours at a time.

Actually I keep my parents in the basement and game alone in the house for 14 hours at a time. I find it works better this way.

Yeah, the Wii isn't really meant for this sort of thing. It's best used with a mix of casual gamers (cough girls cough) or with a bunch of kids. There is a ton of games that are free of violence, swearing, blood and sex.

Wii graphics are best on sillier cartoony-type of games. There are better consoles for "M"-rated, realistic FPS games and that's the end of the story as far as I am concerned.

Anybody who's even remotely trying to justify these graphics with "it's not suited for this console" really is talking something strong.

These aren't exactly Gears of War 2 or anything, but it absolutely craps all over MW Wii. To say good looking (as in, not an eyesore) realistic visuals are not possible on Wii hasn't done their research. They may as well have ported MW to the PS2, it would probably have sold better there.

I think even PSP can do better job than that :laugh: but teej there's a difference between those games. COD has more things going on in a scene that the games you described, while most of the game on Wii you'll be fighting 3 to 4 Ai's in COD that will be around 15+ Ai's including your teammates.

So that will need more processing power that what Wii have, that?s why they need to tone down the graphics to help the game run smoothly. And AB I think they still have 2 months left to find the texture:laugh:h:

It'll be because they're pushing 60FPS.

The jump between 30/60 really puts limits on graphical quality for some genres. First Person Shooters always have a ton going on, something like KZ2 would never been doable at 60FPS on this current gen hardware (not locked anyway) for example, but that doesn't mean COD at 60FPS looks terrible in comparison, it looks great still, but you can definitely see a difference between KZ2 and COD4. Due to the power of the HD hardware this gen though, the differences aren't as extreme between COD4/KZ2 as the differences between MW and The Conduit here are.

I think these screens have to be an early build though, even at 60FPS they are absolutely ridiculous. The texture work on the models is an absolute joke, I refuse to believe that's how they'll ship.

Isn't this game is supposed to be released in November, if it's as you say they why are they releasing pictures of an early build.

I?m thinking that they know that?s the best Wii can do or Will is getting short end of the stick.

But... that doesn't matter. It looks worse then the original XBOX game, which is ridiculous. We all know the Wii is more powerful then the original XBOX, or at the *very* least, on-par.

    • With the current hardware prices Microsoft should lift the restriction. Then if you have the correct TPM then allow you to use X feature, if you don't have the correct TPM then don't but still actually let you run windows. 11. With a disclaimer during install that X features would be unavailable.
    • It's good for recycling of course. But commence inflation of a second hand RAM bubble and price gouging on DDR 4 inventory in 3... 2... 1...
    • Bypassed Windows 11 shows surprising stability on ancient, completely unsupported hardware by Sayan Sen When Windows 11 was first released, one of the most complained-about issues with the new desktop Microsoft OS was its higher system requirements, which pushed many relatively modern and powerful processors and devices onto the officially unsupported list. Thankfully, they have not been updated again for the base OS, though systems require four times the memory and storage if they want to run AI-powered apps and features. As such, Windows 11 technically runs on 4GB of memory, and there is no imposed restriction on the generation of memory it supports. Speaking of memory, prices are extremely high nowadays for hardware, especially DDR5 and DDR4 kits due to the current silicon shortage, and there are also reports of it affecting DDR2 as well, and it might only be a matter of time before even DDR1 gets affected. Before that could happen, an enthusiast took an ancient DDR1-based system and decided to try out Windows 11 on it to see how well the modern OS would fare on such hardware. The system runs an outdated graphics card interface standard based on AGP, or Advanced Graphics Port, called AGP 3.0 or AGP8x. AGP was essentially succeeded by the modern PCI Express (PCIe) bus standard. The user behind the experiment is retro hardware enthusiast Omores, who built the system around an ASRock ConRoe865PE motherboard based on Intel's i865PE chipset from way back in 2003, around the time when AGP was still in fashion. What made this board special back in the day was its unusual support for newer Core 2 Duo and even Core 2 Quad processors while still retaining older DDR1 memory support and an AGP8X graphics slot, making it an ideal bridge or link between two vastly different generations. Powering the machine was Intel's Core 2 Quad Q6600 alongside 3GB of DDR1 RAM and an ATI Radeon HD 4650 AGP graphics card, one of the final and most capable GPUs released for the aging AGP interface. While installing Windows 11 itself was relatively easy by bypassing Microsoft's hardware checks, getting the graphics card fully functional proved to be some challenge. Microsoft had quietly dropped native AGP support after the earliest releases of Windows 10, meaning newer versions of Windows no longer include the necessary Graphics Address Remapping Table (GART) drivers required for proper AGP acceleration. Without them, AGP graphics cards typically boot up, though with limited functionality, and can often throw a Code 43 error in Device Manager. To work around the limitation, Omores extracted Intel's legacy AGP440 SYS driver from an early Windows 10 release and paired it with a modified INF file so Windows 11 would correctly recognize the chipset. Following this and combined with AMD's final 64-bit Catalyst AGP drivers from 2012, the Radeon HD 4650 was able to operate with full AGP 8X acceleration intact. The result was said to be surprisingly usable for hardware that is over two decades old. Hardware-accelerated H.264 video playback worked correctly and benefited apps like Firefox, while legacy applications and games ran without major graphical issues. The system also successfully completed the 3DMark 2001 benchmark, although performance naturally lagged behind what the same hardware achieves under Windows 7, which is significantly lighter than Windows 11. There was, however, one unavoidable limitation as Microsoft's Windows 11 version 24H2 introduces a mandatory SSE4.2 CPU instruction requirement that cannot be bypassed through installer modifications or registry tweaks. Since no AGP-era processor supports SSE4.2, Windows 11 version 23H2 effectively becomes the final release capable of running on such systems. Regardless, it is still a very cool feat and quite fascinating to see just how stable Windows 11 turned out to be on such unfamiliar hardware. Source: Omores (Patreon) via O_MORES (Reddit)
    • That will only really help other players that are also responsible for creating the problem.
    • Well, it's good to know that they have found a workaround to a problem that they helped create, I guess...
