Anyone bought a russian copy had issues activating it or had to use a vpn everytime you want to launch?

Yup! Looks like buying the Russian version is now a waste of time.

It activated succesfully but I don't fancy paying a monthly VPN subscription just to launch a game.

Well, I'm sitting here in a 50/50 yey or ney situation.

It's a great game IF it's patched right as the horrendous lag (even on lowest settings), fixed mouse acceleration and the 99% potato lag fest hosted is stopping me from playing any further.

it's a drastic departure from typical CoD but as above, it needs polishing. Back to BF4!

Well, I've just finished and I must say, it's one of the better single player COD's in quite a while.

The only 2 issues I've had with the game have been unbound buttons and video not syncing with audio during the cut scenes, other than that, I think it looks good, well balanced and despite the exo suits being reminding me of films like "Elysium" and "Edge of Tomorrow" I would recommend it to anyone :)

I've not tried multiplayer, mainly because i find it too simplified from the original COD days and I get fed up of hackers or people complaining I am cheating.

Didn't you enjoy the Ghosts single player campaign? I thought it was excellent!

The problem is, despite playing them all, I couldn't tell you which story was which and I can't even remember them now.

Wolfenstein I can still remember, this I'll remember, but earlier COD's after 4 all kind of merge together :( I'm very much a player who likes a story that sticks with you.

I thought the worst thing about CoD was the speed.
Imo I thought it was way too fast and just a bit ridiculous, and they seem to have sped everything up by adding jetpacks.

Cool

I had a few games on this before work this morning. My first game seemed to be pretty good and I really enjoyed it. My second game seemed to be plagued with lag, stuttering (Which I fixed by pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL then going back into the game) and absolutely awful hit boxes.

I will give it another chance but happy I didn't pay full price but even then £30 is probably still a bit too much.

Is it me or does this game take AGES TO LOAD for the single player?

Yup. I believe you can reduce loading times by disabling the preload shaders option in settings, but it may cause game slow down when playing.

I use an R9 290, Evo 840 SSD, 16GB RAM and an i7 4770 and the level is never loaded by the time the cut scene ends. So in total each level is taking about 3 mins to load. But once it is loaded it runs smoothly.

Until gamers accept that intrusive client side anti-cheat software is required, the problem will not go away.

Back in my Q3 days, one of the server admins developed his own anti-cheat program. The trials were mixed, but most players didnt have a problem. Certain players had issues with it and said they couldn't play with it as it was causing problems on their system. Of course they could be telling the truth and it may just have been a coincidence that these were the players mostly suspected of hacking :)

Additionally, hack coders were also threatening this guy because of the access needed to your system it meant there was literally no place to hide and it could not be circumvented (apparently). As such, their revenue stream was in danger. You have to laugh.

It is one of the main reasons I have not bothered with mainstream FPS titles in years. Always someone who thinks it is fun to spoil everyone elses fun.

Just don't know whether to pick this up on PC, or get myself a PS4...

It'll probably be nice in 21:9 on PC, but had so many issues with BF4, would just be nice to know I could stick the game in and be able to play without tweaking, etc.

Yeah, I know the console versions can have problems, but probably a simpler experience overall...

Not played a COD game since, MW2, which I couldn't stand, so be nice to pick one up again.

Is anyone else running this on a 7970 /280X? I've got the 7970 Matrix Platinum and would be interested to hear what settings everybody uses?
