I think I owe Treyarch an apology, this game is... is... actually p good.

I mean the netcode is still garbage and the connectivity issues in TYOOL 2015 are unbelievable, but that's cod being cod.

This game is absolutely jam packed with content, and even if a lot of that content is stuff I could give a gently caress about, it's still impressive.

As impressive as 3v12 Dom games for sure.

I'm also enjoying listening to people declare every weapon in the game 'OP' after ten minutes of use.

Everyone else's gun seems OP to me, so good they cancel out seeing my own gun firing in the killcam

The content in the game is great but I am actually wishing I had a PC that could run it just for dedicated servers.

(If console also has dedicated servers, then lol)

Any of you networking wizards know how to get this stupid game to give me Open NAT on my PS4? I've tried doing things I found in Google (like putting my PS4 in DMZ), but I still have moderate NAT.

I dmz'd my PS4 and had moderate NAT in BO3 (open everywhere else, hurr).

So then I disabled DMZ, left UPNP on and let it open the port they recommend in the networking menu automatically (3074 udp I think).

Restarted my router and... open NAT.

Makes sense to me :shrug:

So I guess either UPNP or manually forward that port and see what happens.

Or try blowing on the cartridge I guess.

Yeah, now I have 6 custom classes and an unlock token to permanently unlock any item. Hard to decide what to use it on, I'm not sure if Black Hat (level 54 unlock) is any good.

stinks because you have to wait to use the permanent unlock until you achieve the item again, i'd recommend dead silence first and sound is very good in this

You can use it immediately if you do it from the prestige menu and not the create a class.

All your weapon progress basically, weapon levels/prestige, camo progress. Nothing else afaik.

You can use a prestige unlock on a specialist, if you want to burn everyone to death with the purifier for awhile.

Really wish they'd get the Family Share issues sorted out soon. Roomie bought Blops 3 and shared his Steam library with me so I could play a bit until I get paid, but nope. Campaign / Multi / Zombies are all grayed out.

Only thing that resets is your level and create a class unlocks. Attachments, challenges, and dress up options stay.

Redbox it, then you spend $6 instead of $60 and you'll know if you like it so if FO4 is a bug-ridden mess then you can maybe find a used copy for sale or grab some black Friday deal and get it for less than normal.

Oh rad bug alert, apparently the weapon prestige clan tag/kill counter are loving up some guns by making them act like they have a sight attached even if they don't, so if you fire them with irons, your aim is completely hosed up.

Unplug your entire network, start over, and run Test Internet Connection. UPnP on, DMZ on.

Otherwise, :iiam:

I have a "special" Comcast router, so I restarted it and manually forwarded the port and it magically worked. DMZ still does nothing with my PS4, though.

Congrats! Now you can enjoy: Broken parties, inability to join party members, dropping party members on matchmaking search, 5v10 lobbies, 3 bar connections, and highly questionable deaths with killcams showing 0 hits while you score hitmarkers!

At least it will have a constant framerate. They tied mouse sensitivity to framerate on PC so I can't hit poo poo because the framerate won't stop jumping around.

Before anyone asks, no I was not dumb enough to pay full price for both copies.

Runs OK on my two-year old PC, using a GTX 780 (plain, not Ti), i7-4770K , Windows 8.1, latest Nvidia drivers.

I get usually 50+ FPS but in some non-combat scenes the framerate drops to 30. Running at 1920 * 1200 capped at 60 fps with v-sync turned on. I have not experimented with all the settings, yet. I have the shadow map quality set to high but will test it later with medium.

There is slight mouse-lag but was able to adjust the sensitivity settings and it's still playable. Other than that, no crashes or other glitches so far. Just played the SP campaign to the third mission. It looks good but it would probably play better on a faster card than mine.

There's a tweaking guide here:

MY RIG:

i5 2500k 3.3ghz
8 GB RAM
WINDOWS 10
Radeon 6950

My rig is about 5 years old

Played:
3 Missions on campaign. 2 of those again on coop.
8 hours of multiplayer (STEAM ID PAULEKU)
1 round of zombies
1 Freerun mode course.

I can run the game totally fine on medium settings at 40-60 fps. I have had no major issues.

I am having a really good time with it.

If you mean in-game-engine cutscenes, they play on PS4 at 30 fps even though the gameplay runs at 60. I assume they might be the same way on PC

PSA: Suppressor *tanks* the range on ARs and LMGs. It's something bonkers like 75% on ARs and 90% on LMGs.

It's less severe on SMGs (and shotguns, I guess if you want to do that)

Don't slap a suppressor on every AR unless you know what you're doing or you really love a 5sk ICR.

So the Nightmare mode you unlock for finishing the campaign has zero customization, and no progression in it whatsoever. It's basically a 'sprint through the campaign' mode with respawning zombies, and is boring as hell to play.

It's even the exact same cutscenes but re-dubbed with all-new dialogue and plot. But the story is actually more interesting than the original funnily enough.

My statement was based on the fact that the latest patch has fixed stuttering and low frame rates for the vast majority of people and the fact that modded games are still extremely popular 10-15 years after they came out while games that don't have modding support are long gone.
