I'm reading that they 'promised dedicated servers', anything more on that or was it just BS?

There are no dedicated servers on any platform despite them confirming it to the press two weeks ago and also claiming it in an AMA yesterday.

Oh, one thing I have noticed that's kinda annoying: I bought the chat adapter a few days ago to use with my old 360 Turtle Beaches, and the chat and game sound seem to be mixed together so I can't adjust their volume separately. Is this just a general XBOne issue or is it tied directly to COD? It's annoying to try to make out what people are saying in-game, and you miss out on death mics if you're in party chat. :smith:

I have the same setup, on the chat adapter I usually press down on these two buttons so that the mix is maxed out and adjust the game and chat volume on my turtle beach headset:

I was just trying out that first shotgun you unlock, the automatic one, and man is it terrible. The magazine is way too small for it to be a hilarious death machine and even point blank emptying the thing won't always kill a dude.

Anyway, can I get an invite to whatever PS4 clan is going? PSN is FrontlineKhan, thanks!

So is there a audio setting for this game for the PS4 gold headset that you can download yet? If not what setting do you guys find works best?

Pillow Talk is the PS4 clan but I'm curious to see if there is going to be a BTSX style offshoot.

Pillow Talk is more for the casual and shoot the poo poo while blowing poo poo up people. For a more serious shoot mans clan all it needs is someone to take the reins and start one up. Hint hint.

one of those things will/should work for fixing the mouse sensitivity:

quote:

In your config_mp.cfg located at "\Steam\SteamApps\common\Call of Duty Advanced Warfare\players2" make sure the following values are set as:

seta cl_mouseAccel "0"
seta r_elevatedPriority "0"
seta in_mouse "2" <-- This allows raw input

Reduce mouse polling rate to 125/250Mhz via your mouse's software

Set launch options with -noforcemaccel, -noforcemparms in steam

the raw input setting didn't work for me and an other goon who were having issues (it did work for another though), but we set our polling rate down and it had fixed the mouse issues.

That's how it was in Bops, though. People make a ton of dicks but the slightly more subtle ones are somehow the ones that make people the angriest.

Haven't used a xim in a while since blops2. Anything I should know as far as presets or whatever for the xim4 and AW?


Also very important do the perks for this game allow us to play a game of hush and piss off tryhards?

Apparently you can glitch onto the top of the buildings of Detroit. Welp.

On that note: Hushing is super possible to do on Detroit now. because you can just hide in level geometry.

A few of the maps have grass/bushes/greenery to hide in, blind eye and coldblooded, and an exo ability that is a full-on cloak. So maybe.

We were playing Uplink last night on that map- Green something or other? And the other team kept throwing the ball off the map. So this is a valid strategy, just get ahead and then chuck the ball off the side of a skyscraper.

I'm using the Ghosts ST with ingame sensitivity at 20, had to actually turn down the XIM sensitvity to ~30. An AW ST will most likely be up in the next week or so.
Other than that, turn off aim assist and I think you should be good to go.

Titanfall was really good for 1-2 weeks until all the content was explored, which is something that can't be said for any CoD game. Kinda was hoping this CoD would just rip off Titanfall but add more poo poo and welp looks like they were like "+sparebar to jump, good enough".

i'm with you regarding movement. To this day many people still don't get pilot movement in Titanfall. It really is Tribes skiing 2.0. CTF titanfall is the most fun I've had playing ctf in a game since Tribes 2. A shame more people don't play (on pc anyway). I am really disappointed with AW's movement mechanics...they feel quite uninspired. Almost like they heard Titanfall was going to have some different movement system, but didn't know quite what...so rushed out this ut2k4-lite style jump+dodge system.

Sidenote, I was somewhat stunned at how poor some of the poly counts seem to be on some of the maps. I know graphics don't matter....specifically I'm thinking of one level where there is a helipad and you can see a city down below. The city looks so terrible - like straight up rectangle polygons with a few window textures put on - straight out of 10 years ago. Normally this wouldn't bother me, but when you load up the game and they have some message saying this is the first "next-gen" CoD game and they have been working on it for 3 years....well that certainly doesn't seem to be the case.

It also doesn't help they are straight fibbing about dedicated servers. I don't get it.
