Support NeoGAF

[Magic-DEI-Hire]

Makes me wonder if its a mistake and will be patched put soon

No idea if it’s a mistake or not, but I would assume not?

 

[Mr Moose]

Prestige speed run.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Yep, just turn off 120 in the settings and that’s it - it defaults to 60hz graphics, and the newest patch uncapped frame rates for that mode on the Pro.

if you turn of 120hz, how are you getting any benefits of above 60 frames?

Its essentially an uncapped quality mode.

I tested it on TDM on a small map- LG TV is saying between 73fps to about 90 max FPS. Not ideal for a twitch shooter but i’d play the campaign that way.

I still don't understand, if the system is at 60hz, it doesn't matter visually if it's rendering more frames, you will never see them.

My readout is seeing them. And I killed VRR to test it- locked 60 without VRR active.

I think they forgot to cap the mode for VRR tvs- which is the best case.

 

[TheAmazingSpiderMan]

not sure if servers are shared with cod but anyone else find PC game pass version of cod MP so crap in terms of lag and constant jerking

If I set my screen to 60hz but uncap the framerate/no vsync, it will report tons of frames, but that doesn't mean they are being drawn on the screen, because it will only update at 60hz.
I can see this working on a series x because you can set the system to 120hz, so the extra uncapped frames should be visible, but on ps5 there isn't a system wide 120hz toggle, so disabling 120hz in-game should have it update at 60hz.

What screen?

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

My display is picking up the frames between 90 and 110ish with the 120hz mode disabled

 

[splattered]

I know most people hate battle passes here but my god... i gotta say this shit is FIRE this season. Damn some of this stuff is really fantastic.

Hope they can keep this quality for future seasons moving forward.

MP or campaign? My Pro isn’t getting anywhere near that

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

any?

So the ps5 version is just always in 120hz mode? Sounds like the toggle is just a graphical setting then instead.

No idea.

I do know prior my FPS was a steady 60 fps with the 120 fps mode disabled

 

[Calverz]

Got to say I like the clan tag emblem

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

The screen doesn't matter, if the system is set at 60hz that's what it will update at.

 

[MikeM]

If you set Xbox to 120hz, it will duplicate frames. PS does not do that. Games with a hard 60fps cap will report as so.

 

[ValiantInstance]

Make sure to use the battle pass double xp tokens in zombies.

 

[clarky]

Amazing how much busier the COD thread is this year. I know GAF is on the up as well but good to see. ( for both)

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

PS5 doesn't have a system wide 120hz toggle, if you enable 120hz on a PS5 then the game decides to switch to it if it supports it; again the screen doesn't matter, if the system is set to 60hz, you won't see more than 60 frames.

 

[M1987]

the update is faster if you don't subscribe to game pass?

It's not normally this slow

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

I still don't understand, if the system is at 60hz, it doesn't matter visually if it's rendering more frames, you will never see them.

I think the disconnect here is having the enable 120 fps mode on at the system level but turning off 120 fps mode in game settings

Thats what im saying. Hence that my readouts on my TV are accurate when it comes to the PS5.

 

[BigLee74]

Installation got caught in some loop. Uninstalled. Reinstalling. Gives you no option of what to download initially and is downloading 400gig worth of stuff (MW2/MW3 and BO6).

Looks like I can only uninstall stuff from the game UI after it has installed?

Who designed this nonsense?

Edit - Uninstalled again, went again, this time given the option of what to install. Sigh. Only 80 gig. Cmon!

 

[chessy_08]

This is what I'm getting too

Yeah it sounds likely the toggle on ps5 ia forcing the game on 120hz mode, and the setting in-game just being a graphical setting toggle, instead of actually disabling 120hz.

 

[dem]

what platform?

Xbox

 

[EviLore]

Going through stakeout dopamine withdrawals!

New big base map with the helicopter pad is pretty good. Not a fan of the radioactive playlist.

If VRR on = framerate unlocks
VRR off = 60Hz lock
Or something.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

Xbox

Did you cancel the update? You can't cancel updates on series x, it deletes the entire game.

Otherwise it sounds like the update shit the bed for some reason and just decided to replace everything

Who knows. Maybe my kid cancelled it.

 

[Scary_Larry]

Where the hell are the XP tokens located??

*Found it

 

[Ogbert]

The Blackcell Assault Rifle (the goblin molten bullet thingy) is absolutely pitiful.

I swear, they introduce these amazing looking guns but make them useless.

 

[Mr Moose]

I might have to wait until level 35 to get a sniper gold, Ghost perk is bugged for me, unlocks at 17 but I am level 18.

Maybe 29 for Tracker (I used my token on Perk Greed).

 

[EviLore]

Turned on 120fps mode on the Pro and motion sickness sensitivity mode, which sets FOV to 100 and turns off all motion blur. Slightly less cinematic w/o blur but buttery smooth and more clarity for the MP action.

 

[splattered]

Loving the new warzone map and mechanics exceeeept it feels like it takes longer to plate up and i have to hold the button down for way too long to interact with things, pick up a gun or item on the ground, open a loot chest etc. Several people I played with had same complaint.

 

[Danknugz]

is t possible to go back to mw3, earn more double xp tokens there, and use them in bo6?

all those guns with the rgb colors just look like glorified nerf guns anyway tbh

 

[BigLee74]

MS being MS.

You can now only acquire exactly 1100 points by fully completing the BP (unlocking every tier).

You can get to 900 points by completing 69 tiers, but that final 200 are locked away until all done.

Down from 1400 last year.

So no buffer. If you want to keep a battlepass going without paying, prepare to grind.

It’s a bit shit.

And performance when in smoke also looks like it has fallen off a cliff (XSX).

New maps all appear decent though!

I'm assuming you have a VRR panel? Otherwise locked 60hz is probably better for the campaign

Deffo feels like a step back in some respects. Its way too easy to pick up stuff you don't want off the ground but harder to interact with other stuff at the same time. Needs tweeking for sure but i get where they are going with things. Nothing that some feedback and tweeking wont sort out. But feels more like 2.0 atm, in a bad way imo.

Jurys out on the new map for me, lots of interiors to learn. Im sure it will grow on me.

Disappointing they cut 200cp from it, but the bp shouldn't really be a grind, if you only play during the few double xp periods that should be enough to complete the whole thing.

Yea the goblin is terrible. I’m really struggling to get dark matter on it (get 5 kills without dying 3 times).

 

[BigLee74]

It’s 300 points they’ve cut from it in total (and 200 obtainable cut from the BP without completing it).

It’s a grind for me. COD is small 45-1 hour bursts in the evening for me. Not gonna sit down and play it all day at the weekends.

Ah well, we will see how it pans out.

 

[Ogbert]

It hits like a wet noodle, is slow and handles appallingly.

I think they just add guns like this as a ‘hard mode’.

 

[MikeM]

Yeah- LG C1.

 

[midasmulligan]

Do we have a clan going?

 

[hououinkyouma00]

I swear that’s the spawns have gotten progressively worse since launch.

I spent one match spawning in front of an enemy 5 times in a row in different spots.

 

[Lagspike_exe]

Interested as well.
