    you should have the batch. loads as soon as steam is started.
    one of the patches was meant to of lowered the minimum ram to 4gb
    not sure what the rest were for.

    I already tried that, sadly it didn't help a lot. Thank you for the suggestion though.

    sorry to hear it didnt help :(
    also seen people talk about turning of AA anti alaising whatever that does.
    i normally just leave mine on default and dont change anything.

    strange though that some are having more problems than me and they have stronger rigs.

    the update includes
    new lobby music and 2 new/modified games.

    gun game
    everytime you kill an enemy with your gun you upgrade to the next weapon. a melee attack causes a demotion to the previous weapon.

    hunted free for all
    players start with limited equipment. take control of drop zones to get better equipment. kill everyone. except the hackers who start on most powerful gun.

    had one game of each and 2-3 hackers in each game. see they got their priorities right.
    first a wolf skin that you have to buy. then some different music and 2 modified games.
    think the pc community should get the dlc for free after all the crap weve had to put up with.

    How is this game right now? Issues were resolved with the last update? Im considering to buy it but for the price (59.99 in Steam) and the famous bad coding of the game, i don't know really

    German players say that the report button does nothing.

    Seems to be the case here -> Google Translate

    The only way to "report" a player is if a mass of people manually post the cheater's name in cod forum/elite forum (agentGOD (mpgh) is rumored to be banned this way)



    And private rent-able servers are still unavailable yet! It's the same lie as BO2 having "dedicated servers"

    strange. should have no problem playing it.

    there are a lot of kids whining that they cant play it or it wont load or they get errors but 90% of them on the steam forum only have intel graphics.

    are you getting any error messages like unable to connect to server. if so try this:

    why dude? It's awesome, right? I know the latest game is so cliche and has no significant differences with the predecessors, but it's still awesome, especially the first part in the outer space.

    dont get me wrong, i thoroughly enjoyed the campaign but the multiplayer is a lagfest and hackfest no matter what computer you run on.
    they bring out a christmas dlc skin for free and then bring out the wolf skin dlc which they actually charged for and then start bringing out their map dlc's and charge even more before they've not even fixed the game or got rid of the hackers first.

    The campaign is the only worthwhile part of any CoD game anymore. The multiplayer is just the same rehashed crap over and over.

    they are at it again.

    today they released the gold edition which includes the first dlc for £39.99
    so a saving of £11.99
    wooppee dee.

    fixing their game first would be a good idea.

    Uhhhh I would imagine they probably worked out all the legal stuff before throwing licensed IP into their game.
