Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare / Warzone (Battlenet ID's in OP)

Until someone else is "offended" :D

I see there is another 'update' today. Let's see what they have broken this time...:)

From the looks of it, they changed the MW2 playlists around and split Shipment and Shoothouse into their own playlists.

A shame we haven't had Control return as a playlist or mode to select in the main quick play filter since the first week it was introduced. The meatgrinder Shipment games are fun for a bit to get camo challenges done but they do get a bit tiring after a while.

Multiplayer content has been really lacking since the game launched. We had just 10 maps at launch - then they add two meat grinder maps from old games, and then this season they're adding a map that was supposed to be in the game at launch (Museum) and Dome from MW3 that features in the Warzone Al Mazrah map but also was in Vanguard last year too.
 
Plus DMZ crashed for the first time in about a week last night. As I was going to Exfil with the US Embassy key I need for one of the missions. So looks like the update made it less stable again too.

Ive only just started playing warzone (controller on PC and xbox)

Is there any training you can do on warzone? Doesn't seem to be?

Any tips for beginners? Should i be changing any settings on pc? Do i need to know what the best guns are etc? Any good youtube videos to help get me started?

Cheers

The default aim assist is better than the Black Ops one. The BLOPS one was broken on launch but the nerfed it shortly after release. But like the other guy said make sure you are strafing left or right as you ADS and the aim assist is stupid. It's so broken it makes me look like I could be a pro player lol.

Also for MP does anyone else seem to think the riot shield on the back seems to break the hit boxes/damage model? I'm doing the shotgun masteries and if they have no shield from quite close it's a guaranteed kill, but with a shield on it always takes 2 or 3 shots. It as if the hitbox for the shield glitches into the player model so it thinks you're hitting the shield. It's really annoying when you go against a sweaty team full of shields on backs as it just feels so broken.

I got a warning message from Activision for having an "offensive account name" (it's 'Rez'). Activision has asked me to change my account name.

Since they take these in-game reports so seriously, I will be reporting everyone now for no comms, not reviving, driving off without me, 'team-mates' stealing my gear before res-ing me etc. :)

Ha I just got the same warning, did you rename your account? Mines BenjiSayers so I don't see why I should have to change it, also can't be bothered to.

No I didn't change it, it's 'Rez'. Presumably it's just an automated message if anyone reports you once, even in error, they obviously didn't even check it first.

There was a racist nutjob on our squad last night, screaming abuse at everyone right from the start. When he got killed, nobody revived him, thankfully, so he started screaming abuse at us and said he was going to report me. I'm sure he did, and I hope Activision actually check the audio from the game, but I know they probably won't. But it's scary that you could get shadowbanned just because randomers report you a few times. How many random reports does it take, does anyone know? Another randomer said they were going to report me last night for not going half way across the map to commit suicide trying to revive him!

Yet another reason not to play with randomers. Sometimes you are actually better off solo, sometimes it's impossible when you're up against a full squad, but other times in DMZ, it is the most consistently exciting game I've played. Really thrilling and massively rewarding when you get away with it (and if it doesn't crash).
 
One good thing about the progress wipe for Season 2 is hopefully they will get rid of the worst missions in DMZ. I’ve given up on Tier 5 as some of them are either impossible or just not fun.

What are your best and worst DMZ missions?


Best: Roof Rat - solo sniping operators in Al-Mazrah is great fun.

Worst: Mechanic – 26 blow-torches. 26! As soon as I selected the mission, blow-torches became rarer than gold bars. 26! Why 26 of them!? After about a month, I still only had 20, gave up, silly.


And now that I have de-selected the mission, of course, there are plenty of blow-torches appearing in garages, enemies dropping them etc. I swear selecting some missions makes them rarer/harder to do.

Bring on Season 2.

@t2na and his mates must be perma shadow banned then.

We've had one of our guys shadow banned but he's unbelievably good at the game, otherwise we get the usual "he's hacking" voice comms but nothing other than that.

@MoNkeE is probably right about solos having a much higher % of players that are inclined to report - basically you die to someone and just immediately report them. Reminds me of checking PUBG Report when I played a lot of PUBG, I'd finish a solos game and have more people reporting me than players I'd kill.
 
So ive been playing around with the settings in Warzone 2.

system 1:
10600K
3080
16GB 3200Mhz
1440p

I get 120 fps max in Warzone 2, more in multiplayer. Nothing i change improves this. DLSS, render resolution (even stupid low settings) nothing.


system 2:
5600X
3070
16GB 3000Mhz
1080p

I get 140 fps max in Warzone 2, same as above, nothing i change goes above this.


What sort of fps are you guys getting in game?
 
Had a great game of DMZ tonight with a couple of randomers now added as friends. Took out 3 squads at Rohan which was constant gun fights team revives and desperate searching for plates. V tense. We finally made the buy station and made it to the last exfil near the quarry. Three more squads descended on the heli and it was total pandemonium! I had to fully plate up twice inside and got lucky with my semtex and M13 with a thermal scope. Those last few seconds were deadly but we held on and I exfilled with a great looted sniper rifle. As said above when this mode delivers it is thrilling and great fun. Wish I could have seen a playback.

Seems low, you sure you haven't got anything capping your frame rate?
If not I would have to assume your CPU or RAM is holding back the GPU.
I can get 100+ most of the time on an ancient 5960X with 2400MHz RAM and 200+ on a 5800X3D with 3600MHz CL16 RAM

Current setup:

Sitting roughly around 170-200+ FPS depending on the area.

Thanks. I used the same guide. Its smoother, so better 1% lows etc, but the fps didnt really increase much.

I'll look into some faster ram and see what effect that has. Then maybe overclock the cpus a bit. Upgrading much more than that is an expensive slippery slope at the moment. Particularly the intel system.

If i get faster ram, is it worth increasing to 32gb? They are ITX boards, so only 2 slots

Thanks
 
Ban is finally lifted! Only took 8 days…..

I only hope this gives me a little more protection now from future over zealous reporting; surely being cleared once should change the future requirements!?

That is silly. I've been reported for not committing hari-kari running half way across the map to try and revive someone who has ignored me all game, 'cos nutjobs just feel like screaming abuse at the world and as someone did not like my name.
