Dedicated servers ? Didn't they say every console would get them ?

ColdFire5411d ago (Edited 5411d ago )

This sounds like good news for PC, but I'm still not sure I will get the game :-/

I'm surprised they forgot to mention higher graphics settings, Full HD, and AA and such...

MW2 on PC blows the console versions out of the water.

Conloles5411d ago

Ahahahha the words console and dedicated should never and will rarely ever be associated, keep dreaming though.

@ColdFire

"MW2 on PC blows the console versions out of the water"

yeah, but it wasn't optimized enough at all, neither WaW, and I guess this one won't be any different, bad porting with their engine sucks donkey balls.

ColdFire5411d ago

Really, seemed fine for everyone I know. I think most of my friends have above average PC's now however :-)

@nbnt

The PC version of MW2 worked on pretty much any PC that could play MW1, the tech was very similar and the graphical improvement not that much.

Letros5411d ago (Edited 5411d ago )

Not optimized?

A $200 GPU putting up over 100 fps at DOUBLE the resolution of the consoles version, what are you smoking?

NarooN5411d ago

@Conloles Your trolling gets worse and worse. Just terrible. Consoles had dedicated servers back in the friggin' PS2 and Xbox days. Hell, the Tribes: Aerial Assault game is still up to this day. Killzone 2, MAG, Resistance, Metal Gear Online, etc. have dedicated servers. I'd just quit if I were you. You suck balls as a troll. I feel bad for even giving you attention.

Its funny because its true.

Hopefully the PS3 fanboys dont see that second image below the master race.

NarooN5410d ago

Or I can just use my PS2/PS3 to play games that don't bore me after two seconds and just use my tricked out PC for multi-media. Actually, my PS3 is also great for media. My PC is good for some things, I guess. Still, I use my consoles for gaming and my PC for everything else, although emulators on PC are a win and a handful of PC titles are great.

tl;dr fanboys of any type are idiots.

How much % of gameserver revenue will go to Activision? Is it really that hard to allow users to have their own dedicated servers.

khamvongsa095411d ago

Wow, they are going to have gungame for COD:BO? I'm really surprised with this.. I remember a couple years back I use to play these big gungame matches as a mod in some Counter Strike:Source servers.. All they need is a zombie escape mode like Counter Strike:Source and I'm sold first day :D

Note: Yes, I do know these are mods from the community..

The getaway
Smugglers run
Dead to rights
Worlds scariest police chases

Mannn… worlds scaries police chases… that took me back lol

Ape Escape.
Fun game but, wow, you need a college degree to understand the controls.
A remaster would also save you from having to constantly fight the camera.
Keep the music though. Those drum and bass tracks fit really well and haven't aged. Made me think that more games could work well with drum and bass tracks, but unfortunately it's a somewhat niche genre now.

Abear21139d ago

Max Payne Series
Infamous 1 & 2
NBA Street Vol 2
SSX
Skate

M_Prime138d ago

i could have sworn i read somewhere that Remedy is remaking May Payne 1 but things have been quiet lately

YourMommySpoils138d ago

They are making the first one, as we speak.

jznrpg139d ago (Edited 139d ago )

One of the few Xbox games I own. I have 3 copies of it because of the many discs it has, for just in case reasons

jznrpg139d ago (Edited 139d ago )

Xenogears, Xenosaga trilogy, Vagrant Story, Drakengards, Parasite Eve and many more but I’ll start with those

Black ops 4, because it was the last cod of duty I was able to dominate with a +2 k/d ratio. Before all the freaking cheating started to happen. It was nice catching people off guard and shooting at them first and getting the kill. Unlike now, where I shoot people first, but they gun me down with less hits, less time, literally feels like they can kill me in a split second. At times, they are able to run away after me shooting them way more than necessary, yet, the second I'm spotted, I'm dead, there's no me running away to cover. They can do cartwheels, summersaults, backflips and gun you down perfectly. They can shoot you across the map with perfect accuracy. They can jump around like morons and gun you down without even having to correct their aim. They have superman split second perfect reactions. That's the best way to describe it, everything they do is spot on perfect. They can spam and spray (no praying) their gun from far away, because they have no recoil or bullet spread. It always feels like I have to aim and also correct my aim when moving around, while these pricks don't have to do the same.

And yes, I know how to play fps games. I dominated many fps games like: Resistance 1&2, kz 2&3, Socom, MAG, Crysis, Gotham City Impostors, blitz brigade etc. all with 2-4 k/d ratio. Kz2 (lag input controls) and resistance (no aim assist in resistance) being the hardest and were the games I reached either close to a 3 k/d ratio or above.

I truly got to enjoy blacks ops 4 and got my money's worth out of it. Afterwords, I would either stop playing cod games after a while, because of the cheating, or would skip buying cod games for a year or two before buying another.
