freaked, in college tomorro!

Yep so far most people who downloaded the patch cant get onto the servers at the moment.

On the plus side my game doesn't freeze for two seconds at the treyarch logo on start up anymore. Multiplayer is a small price to pay to fix that massive fault.:p:p

theothers108

People saying frame rate drops are still on ps3 F**K SAKE

I couldn't get online with Fifa earlier. Had to quit out of the game and sign in manually in the main menu, when signing in I had to accept new terms and conditions. Could this be your problem?

Moved a few more posts lads, more so because I fully expect a bit of panic and new threads being created all over the shop tomorrow if **** truly does hit the fan(ie: no one can get online tomorrow) :pac:

iMuse

considering you cant get online once you install the patch... i wouldn't listen to "People" as they arent running the patch yet.

Besides, i havent had any problems with frame rates in a few days now, just really anoying disconnects and ****.

Magill

working now.

I was playing online today all day on and off, and didn't experience a single drop or even any lag (360). Maybe it was just remarkable coincidence....

Shammy

I think this is just for the ps3 as i just went on the 360 and there was no update

Ps3 always gets the patches quicker for cod, microsoft have more hoops you need to jump than sony through before they can release it on 360

True but it was a very small patch , i'm wondering if it was just to fix the lag /stuttering on the ps3 , there was none on the 360 .

If it doesnt i think ill have a meltdown lol,

OMG it doesnt freeze on the treyarch screen anymore

iMuse

First thoughts, Footsteps seem louder, Have to wait to call in RC Car if team mate has one already on the go, damage seems a bit nerfed from it aswell. The framerate problem is still there slightly on ps3 but it seems better, it also finds a match in like 3 seconds

krudler

The hell? I came into this thread and thought I'd become a mod and nobody told me :pac:

theothers108

Same old $hit 4 me get into a game then connection to the host ,out of the lobby ,lobby closed

Shammy

I dont see any difference , still stuttering .

please god I want my sound whoring back

krudler

Fair play to Treyarch, they're backing up what they were saying about not letting massive glitches and stupid hiding spots on maps go unpatched.

woot, audio levels being fixed for footsteps! now if they just completely beefed up the audio for choppers and not made the Hind sound like a printer with a paper jam when its firing it'd be great. Me, kersmash and headpunk were talking about this in a game the other night, the chopper gunner in MW2 was crazy loud, just bambambambambam constantly, same as the ac-130, that awesome sound of the main gun roaring down on the map was brilliant, yet the choppers in this sound like lawnmowers.

iMuse

Tomohawks still bounce so i take it this isnt the proper patch yet or they havent bothered nerfing it

Maybe it's down to one bounce now (at least, I hope it is, Bank Shots are so much fun )

Also, does anyone understand what is meant by

- AK-74u damage reduced by one bullet at all ranges
- MP5k damage reduced by one bullet at close range
- G11 damage reduced by one bullet at all ranges

By bullets, does it mean the little orange squares on the Create A Class screen, or would it be X post-patch shots being equivalent in damage to (X-1) pre-patch shots?

- Fixes to the matchmaking system (PS3 and PC)

For the PC, I hope this means that it actually finds a server that's not already f***ing full! I don't think the Find Server option has ever gotten me into a game, just "SERVER IS FULL" crap over and over -between that, and no apparent option to choose your gamemode, I just got sick of it and stuck with Server Browser

Jet Black

So far what Ive noticed is when voting for a map you cant vote for the previous map. This could just be a glitch thou. Happens only sometimes. Sound is massively improved. Can hear footsteps

Guns seem the same and tomahawk does not stick in anything.
