FPS limit rule - 250

[Storky]

I disagree too.

If you start telling people what FPS they can and can't have, you might as well tell them if they use a resolution higher than 1900x1200 they can't play. OR if they have surround sound headphones.. they are not allowed because the majority of players don't have them.

And how can we enforce it?

Well while I see your point there, storky, and I too see no way to enforce an FPS limit, the advantages of these certain fps limits aren't just like having better graphics or sound.

If higher resolution interacted with the game engine in a way that made you move silently, affected recoil, allowed you to jump higher/further..... then it would be comparable.

I have a horribly shitty computer, and so do a lot of other people. I see no reason someone with a great pc shouldn't be allowed to max everything out, though.

I agree, having a higher FPS will give a different advantage to having good sound/graphics. (I'm not sure I understood your top sentence correctly).

I agree with you that a high FPS player will have an advantage over those that have 60ish (not counting sub 60 here), and that it would be very difficult to enforce it.

The owners of the high spec PC's can't argue that they want more FPS than say 60, because the average human eye is supposed to not be able to see any difference anyway.

But, like Damage said, too much red tape .

P.s. I play promod a lot with the clan, and it aggravates me when I see Hultsy or Ez running past me at literally 1.5x my speed. There's nothing I can do about it though until I upgrade my PC.

hah

I disagree with this. I always have 40-65 fps and have never had problems killing people with higher fps and never feel that im at a disadvantage. Its ping you should be worried about that makes a lot of problems i have 150-330 ping and get killed a lot because of that not fps.

 

[WaLLy]

Its Gage and his low ass ping you should be worried about that makes a lot of problems

Corrected it for you

 

[Infinity17]

my ping is good because close to server but my computer gets me around 60 fps

@Storky that sounds more like wall running cuz I'm pretty sure thats not possible.. I've never really noticed a difference in run speed personally so it seems like it's extremely minimal

I think he means that they're moving faster because they're strafing. It's not 1.5 times faster, but you can definitely get places faster using good strafing techniques.

Ahh I thought he meant run speed, that makes more sense. Like on strike attack skip so much of the hill lol

I was talking about run speed but I exaggerated quite a bit. It is roughly about 1.2x faster you can notice it if you're both running next to each other.. he slowly edges faster.

Who utilizes his pc on COD4?

People who want their games to run as smoothly as possible. I would if I could.

 

[BuckRogers]

I dont even know how to check wot my fps is!!

 

[TheDude]

you'rs is probably set to Default (0) which is uncapped, then.

/cg_drawfps 1 -this displays your current FPS in the top righthand corner of your screen. Console will explain the various settings

/com_maxfps [VALUE] -here you can set the max frames per second that will be processed and created. Default is 0 which means UNCAPPED (there is no limit on frames)

 

[The Moment]

Default is set to 85, leaving your computer running it at 91 fps.

 

[TheDude]

Okay i thought it was 0 i apologize.
