what fps does a 8800 get at cod 4

Right all i can say now to ~>Dg<~ is... Learn to put a friggin space character after your friggin full stops!
Bloody hell man. this post actually has been quite informative but its hard reading your posts.
 
Sure sounds like your beeing L33Tist to me. the arrogance of you is astounding and to presume every one that has commented in this thread is everyday run of the mill public server fodder is pathetic. you play with the best do you? with your antics i pressume you get killed a lot eh, as if you didnt you would be classing your self as up there with them,
and in so contradicting everything youve said, Choice of mouse is personal preferance but you cant deny at the start of the thread you were making it sound like you use razor because its the pro gamers choice... which is what people were picking up on.

At the end of the day what narks people is to hear you going on about how you need this and that to play with the best and that none of us understand because we are just common server fodder, You have no idea who speaks in this server or there skill set, frankly i conciderdmy self well above average and could hold my own in a server of "l33T COD4 GAMERZ", Most of the people in this forum have common sense and have played the game so we know the crack, we have moved form high FPS to lower FPS and seen for ourselfs theres is no differance, seems to me your holding on to the past tricks of older games in a desperate bid to somehow improove you game with no practice, isnt going to happen im afraid!

for that setting, 1680x1050, aa on max, all eye cand and glow on, all texture settings on max should be a shoe in, im unsure about your native res as ive never played at that res but at the res i stated you should have no problems atall. i force aa x16Q in the drivers and it still plays flawlassly.

Is that In reply to me if so native iss 1920x1200
IF i go abouve high it starts to get choppy.
recon i should try making a nvidia profile for it if so could anyone give me a good config for it?

I love eyecandy and built this pc for it, :( but it seems to be struggling even OC'ed to 3.2ghz.
 
ive found the worsed thing for me to ramp up is anisotropic filtering do you have that up high on the slider rite to its right? ive also found it has the least impact on visuals for me, its the differance between choppy and smooth in my case!
 
lets explain the concept of reg...

The amount of times you hit an enemy is calculated by you, and both a good internet connection and a good processors (be it gpu or cpu) would be needed to send this information to the server.

So a bad gfx card and a bad cpu that are being focused on making things look nice will mean that less of the cpu/gpu is doing the calculating in hits/contact therefore incomplete packets are sent to the servers resulting to the servers reporting back that you have missed them.

There is a point however, where the calculating gfx and calculating information is handled both well by top end hardware.

Not sure with cod4, but ragdolls in css are calculated by the user not the server, so you may see someone in a slightly different place to how the server see's it.


So... this means that maybe you can hit more things with a better card on a lower spec, but it will not make you jump higher than anyone else, unless its an illusion on your side.
 
the amount of times you hit someone is calculated by the server..?

If a server is terrible, it can also mean that the server reports to everone with false or incomplete information that you haven't hit someone...

Oh and cod4 isnt the same engine is it..
 
i know its not the same engine, i was correcting clarky's post because he was talking about a broader range of enginers, not specifically cod4 afaik..

Obviously if the server is crap its not going to function properly, because packets will get lost to/from server, it wont calculate things in time & therefore calculations will expire etcccccc..

lol
 
This thread just grows and grows :D

What was the original question... Ah thats rite how much is a loaf of hovis white.
 
LOL at this thread, I wonder how many people in here tweak there hardware all the time trying to get extra 3dmark points and then in the same breath moan at Dg for tweaking his game settings for more FPS.

I play at low settings because I prefer it, im looking for other players to kill not pretty backgrounds. However, I do cap my FPS at 125 but thats partly due to a pants pc :p.

Oh, and I rarely play on public servers anyway, always pcw/scrims or ladder matches.

Edit: spelling :o

Sliders slapped in the middle ?? does that sound about correct to you ?
 
DG - I get the impression your saying all the top players/gamers use these tweak settings etc? I have to firmly disagree there.

Been to a few lan's where i've watched top players play (who I thought were cheating little *beeps* before I met them :p) and most of them had the usual, stock settings and quite high detail in the eye candy sector. Nothing compared to what your describing. So in terms, no, not all the top players do this at all.

I used to play SOF2 where it's know that 333fps can make you achieve jumps that are impossible with any lower fps. Also recoil and jumping distance were dramatically unique at certain levels. I was good at SOF2, without blowing my shiny trumpet I could kill most people without a problem in the world, all on high settings and resolutions. The teams and players I struggled against often ended up on a banlist, which I think will be the case with these elite players your mixing with.

On the other hand, if you really want to play like that, then it's your choice, nobody elses, so you do it. I agree it can give an advantage, but you dont 'need' to do it to become a top player.

Btw, work on your punctuation and grammar and people might be more easy on you, I do appreciate that some people find this difficult and it can't be helped due to disorders etc, so if thats the case, sod them.

PS. Razer mice are awesome! (when they don't break all the time :@)

How about an OcUK COD4 night then? Anyone up for it? May the Battle of the tweakers commence!
 
thats the thing they arnt cheating(dignitas are cheats :p) this isnt a lan or tournement setting.people keep adding things to the mix that arnt there.if people dont like my grammer haha i dont care :p this is a forum im not submitting for my exams.some people can actually decifer my humour cause they dont take my posts to seriously.

look how many are trolling for silly responses missed the whole point of the post.the server where i put details to low, no hacks, vibrators, submarines, loafs of bread is a highly skilled training server for the evangelick , wings are needed so i enable them.i play normal in cb, matches,lighters,scrims,publics or whatever other settings described.
 
To be good you dont need 800x600 and all low its just silly even saying you do, I can gaurantee there will be people out there that could own you in a match on cod4 and they will be using a higher res and higher settings, if 800x600 and all low settings give them such an advantage over playing on higher res and high settings when the hardware is more than capable then using the low settings should be banned as it is unfair using that.
 
I know of many gamers that WILL play on lcd's and high res's.BUT i also know just as many who dislike lcd's and have always felt better playing at a res like 800x600 or just above.Not everyone likes wide screens or a lcd for that matter.I cant see what the problem is if he plays at a low res or uncaps his fps.If you game a lot even if you don't use it your try it just to see , its a tweak easy done not even a console cmd just lower settings.Get of his back already.

I prefer CRT screens to LCD's, but dont have one because they are huge. The thing is, it's stupid buying high end hardware to play at 800x600 all low settings to get 333fps so you do all sorts of extra crap or jump higher or something having an unfair advantage over other people and you know it.

Yes i do.But if i game v some one on a 2800 barton with a 9800 pro i still have a unfair advantage in games such as cod4.You and i play online vs people with pings 2 times bigger than our own thats a unfair advantage.Tweak trick rates max packets should all be stopped also and play it straight out the box.And that wont ever happen.
