Plutonium

luigistyle I liked ghost but the maps and the optimization was bad I could run it all even if I went Into potato settings

TBH my experience was the direct opposite, the game ran great on my HD 6970 while it looked really good for a CoD title at that time. Except for the campers/snipers and the P2P system I liked the game. But I did only play the MP for ~25 hours due to the shitty performance of the P2P system so I might have been super lucky.

But our target isn't to offer as many CoD games as possible for free, we want to deliver quality and modability to a cheater free base to the games we support and those things take time. Now that IW5 is coming closer to that the focus will shift to T6 to wake it up from its sleep.

There was no solution back then and it will obviously never be resolved.

Thats not entirely true, this bug only occurs when your PC takes too long to load the next map part. Due to the limitations of consoles they had to use a few tricks, one of them is to not have the whole map in memory. What happens now when traveling between map parts is that your game has to load the next part into memory within a certain time limit, if that doesn't happen this "bug" will occur.
TLDR your PC is slower than a x360 or PS3 aka slow af aka a potato with wires.

MW3 has many "optimisations" for it's P2P styled network. They know residential connections are bad and hat to do quite many equally bad things to the netcode.

We are a PC client and not a console replacement project. The only way to get not raped with a controller against Mouse and Keyboard is to have a really unfair aimbot. You will get used to Mouse and Keyboard super easy and fast if you just want to and play a couple of matches and figure out sensitivity settings that work for you.

The only way is to upgrade, I did it less than 20 hours before the launch of PlutoIW5 after debugging it with RektInator.

There is no such thing as iw5x.

Must be an issue on your end because it works perfectly fine.

Try again

What port are you trying?

But private matches are listen servers to the very word of their definition. You still have to portforward and they are already joinable (I think) through the friends list in PlutoIW5. The only thing they don't do is to heartbeat.

I think you are looking back at aIW and 4D1 through rose tinted glasses or the players did behave drastically different in your region than they did in mine.

M8, ure missing the point.

Whats the difference between you and a knife?

MSGaBe said in Where is ALL players?:

Mr Android...cod mw 2 and cod mw 3 on steam have around 1000 players each today.Yeah , there are times when the russian hackers are a plenty , but at least there are ppl u can play with.

As you correctly said yourself: STEAM not us.

I got the game today [plutonium mw3 ] , tried to play but there were max 70 ppl online. 20 of them were on 2 servers and all they did was look at the sky and run in small circles...u could not kill them. The other populated server was a free for all sh*tfest on rust with helicopters and other crafts on but NO rpgs to takeem down.Thats just stupid.

As already said it depends on where and when you play. What also helps is populating non shit servers

It uses the plain old Q3 protocol, any pre-made query for CoD 1 to 6 should work just fine.

Idaho said in When did people stop using common sense?:

The problem with dedis is not only on how poorly admins manage their population but also in the way they're configured, no map rotation, stupid time or score limits, unnecessary high player counts, all servers have 18 players when most maps can't handle that, the list goes on and on...

I am not saying you don't have a point here but everything you listed is possible with lobbies as well. And not all servers are configured like that.

Idaho said in When did people stop using common sense?:

With matchmaking you have at least the possibility of enjoying the vanilla game, so yeah from time to time a kid would ruin the lobby with stupid scripts but it's something that even happens on PS3 and 360, you just leave the lobby and get matched again

You can do the same with dedicated servers and blacklist them.

Note: That only works on PlutoIW5

Idaho said in When did people stop using common sense?:

That's one of the reasons I want matchmaking so badly, server admins can rarely be trusted to provide people with a proper game experience...

And then what? Kids with force host kicking you from lobbies instead? Its not like MM will magically solve the issue. With dedicated servers you can at least ignore the bad ones, with MM it can happen, that it will put you into the same lobby over and over again.

I mostly still have the same admins I have had 10 years ago due to the lack of decent to good applicants, I am not sure if its because our servers are less popular or because too much has changed during the years.

When did pc cod's go from wow you're nuts to wow ban this cheater

I would say pretty much at the same time when the shift happened from asking your local teen to fix your PC to asking your local teen's dad to fix your PC.

Deicide You could also just zip up the whole dump you have and share it with us, maybe there are a few nice additions or changes we don't know of yet.
