i fixed it for some reason i have to play fullscreen for it not to lag. (Not Windowed)

dubsflick i don't think that is functional atm.

Im not too sure if these are DLC maps, but if they are you will have to download them from somewhere eg. this torrent:

https://dss0.cc/alterwarez/download/pluto_t6_full_game.torrent

Without the full game (including DLC's) you wont be able to play on DLC maps.

I recommend qbittorrent as the download client. Make sure to uncheck "keep top level folder".
Choose your Bo2 directory as download location.

Maverick_ yo dude 😄 I have one for windows but its only 120 GB, will probably be able to afford another 500 GB, should be enough.

Means the port is not forwarded or UPnP failed. Either UPnP needs to succeed or the game port needs to be forwarded.

Emosewaj ok thx for the awnser.

I had this problem recently after changing some nvidia control panel settings. Sometimes i would get into a lobby then downloading game settings would come up and just stay there. I fixed it by downloading latest driver and choosing a clean install. Worked fine after that

You won't have anything inside it if you haven't ran the launcher yet 🤷 . Also what issue are you even having? If you created a new thread and elaborate it there, I may be able to help you.

And I told you to install the redists, did you even do that? Screenshot your game folder as well please.

There's no harm in doing that. Majority of the servers use a third party server administration tool that disallows VPNs, but you should be fine as long as you use it only to get into the main menu, then disable the VPN after that.

Well usually when there's a black screen, you should be able to alt tab out and see if there's any errors displayed on the BO2 console? If there is, please screenshot it. If you followed our official guide and grabbed the torrent we link there, its highly unlikely that your files are missing/corrupted. Try right clicking torrent -> force recheck.

@l1baniti Download a torrent client of your choice (qbittorrent recommended). Then download this https://dss0.cc/alterwarez/download/pluto_t6_full_game.torrent. Point this download to your BO2 folder, deselect "create subfolder" and let it run. This should verify and skip over whatever you have and only download corrupted/missing files.

Is there a specific error or just the generic "Oops plutonium ran into some problem" error? Might be corrupted basegame, you did use the torrent we link on the official guide right?

If the host has UPnP enabled, you don't have to go through port forwarding and stuff. Have you taken a look into this guide?

Cyrano But which AV though? Some AVs don't disable themselves completely even after disabling them manually. So if you're using some trash AV like McAfee, Avast, etc I'd suggest uninstalling them.

Yea it's in bridge mode. I'll keep tweaking around with it. Thank you for the help! I really appreciate it ❤
