Plutonium

its not an issue or a problem... that's how the internet works... if you host, then your connection to the server is basically in the same spot, so your ping is SUPER LOW... if he hosts, you have to connect to him across whatever distance that is. That's just how clients and servers and networking works. you can setup a host halfway between your locations and you would both have similar pings (likely both in between the two numbers are you seeing now)

Cloudflare Warp should fix it for you. there are TONS of posts on here about it and other things you can do but Cloudflare Warp is the one that works for most!

use Cloudflare Warp

you have a connection issue between your network and the plutonium update servers. you can sometimes fix this by resetting your router, changing your DNS, switching to ethernet/wifi/mobile hotspot, using a VPN etc.

Cloudflare warp seems to fix this issue for most people that have it.

if you are running a dedicated bo2 server, setting up a webserver on the same machine is SUPER easy! just google windows web server and you'll get lots of ideas... apache is a popular one.

if you have plutonium installed, you have a plutonium folder... and a storage folder... if only plutonium had a guide that explained how to get to that plutonium folder, and what to do when you find it. I give your ability to use the plutonium website and the how to guides a -1000/10

Edit: i give your ability to quote previous posts and comment on them the same score

no, like Resxt said... it doesn't say "speed up" ANYWHERE...

FastDL makes it so the player can download and install the mod from the server just by joining and not get an error message saying you don't have this mod... thus having to manually go to a website, download said mod from a web browser, unzip it, move it from a downloads folder to the correct folder in your plutonium app directory, then try to join again.

See how the FastDL method made the process of obtaining a mod and putting it in the correct location "quicker"?

Not 100% sure but i don't think it will unzip files... i think they have to be in the uncompressed normal format on your webserver (but i'll admit i'm not sure on that part)

bananagio005 sorry, can't help you with pirated files, those are no longer supported / allowed. Get your game files from steam and point the plutonium launcher to your steam files and you'll be all set!

yes, it will work fine on plutonium. You will run into issues of you all try to play on steam with the same copy, but plutonium does not have that limitation.

evy_bear uh yeah it has bud...

same way you zoom pretty much any window... CTRL mouse wheel

Freakpool sorry my man, can't help you with pirated files, those are no longer supported (changed 3 years ago).

Get your game files from steam and you'll be good!

The game goes on sale every other month or so if money is an issue for you.

can you show a screenshot of you trying to log into the launcher?

koishicat because of plutonium's awesomeness, there is an entire new generation of players discovering the old COD games! It's a good thing! Show them the ways, teach them the knowledge you have acquired to help them be better zombie teammates for the next person... just like someone did for you when you were a noob. Pay it forward

ryankrook1991 you can get your own keys here: https://platform.plutonium.pw/serverkeys

jeffy you have an issue with one of the dependencies (files that the game needs to work).

you can fix this by installing DirectX manually or running the game once thru steam and letting it install what you need. The second method is the easiest and cleanest.

HussBlug can't help you with pirated files mate... get the game from steam and you'll be good!

Sacdecaca Start with this first: https://plutonium.pw/docs/repair/

Get your game files from steam... pirated copies are not allowed or supported anymore.

Descarga los archivos del juego desde Steam... las copias piratas ya no están permitidas ni son compatibles.

find me on discord (same name), i have a BO1 Zombie Counter and Game timer. I can give them to you as individual gscs so you can pick and choose which to use (or i can combine them into one for you).

Get Cloudflare WARP... you have a connection issue between you and the update servers.

you can also try resetting router, changing DNS, switching to ethernet/wifi/mobile hotspot, etc. Cloudflare warp works for most.
