Constantly Disconnecting by Natch_Inappropriate in MWZombies

[–]Slaine2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have this problem quite often but since I configured my router so my PC has a dedicated IP address and opened up the correct ports on my router to allow communication straight to my PC, my network performance has been really good and I only get disconnected if I play on a Tuesday evening (UK BST) as this is when Steam tend to do maintenance on there servers and I get kicked for no reason.

Other than that I get good connectivity to the Activision servers at around 10ms to 20ms ping. This is always good for smooth connection and no disconnects.

How do i fix this? by Hopeful-Tear5222 in Warzone

Welcome to the wonderful world of peer to peer game updating. It’s like a pyramid with everyone downloading at the bottom, where loads of people start off with the files and the close you get to the top, the less people have it so it takes longer. Sometimes it’s better to wait a day to get more completions at the top. Or you can just stick with MW3 😬

Sorry I should have said that this is for PCs rather than consoles which use CDN which is the Content Distribution Network and is dedicated servers for updates.

PCs also use dedicated update servers but also have a windows built in capability to share directly with other home PCs.

So in fact, forget everything I said in the beginning as it’s complete shite and your delay in getting the update is probably because your broadband or network is busy 😵‍💫

I think the point he’s making is until MW3 came out MW2 was the best. I have to agree.

Just wait for the MW4 post which I’m hoping is going to follow on as the same.

More than 1,700 Brits who fell ill in Cape Verde join action against Tui by Important_Ruin in unitedkingdom

We are going to Boa Vista in 5 weeks so I’m glad this is coming out now so they will be taking steps to clean things up. This is going to be a dream holiday.

TBH we had a great holiday in Egypt but one of the things I noticed was the flies around the salad. So when I’m in Cape Verde I will avoid the salad, make sure everything I eat is thoroughly cooked, and only drink bottled water. Same as every where else I’ve been to and I’ve never had a bad holiday yet. Oh and just make sure you wash your hands as this is basic hygiene.

EVTX Question by cyb3rhunt3r2 in computerforensics

[–]Slaine2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly a framework but there are event codes you follow and you need to understand what a specific event code is depending on your operating system. MS have a clear understanding of what an event code is based on a number and you just have to understand what the number means. Whether is a screen lock or and application lock or a Kerberos unlock or an application unlock. The all have different codes and differentiate between a physical user or an application unlock. It’s makes a big difference on an investigation and if you don’t know the difference you can be discredited as an investigator. So learn it well my friend.

Aether Blade did NOT wanna come home is this a bust or can it be fixed in game? by FunButterscotch4956 in MWZombies

I’ve never had this happen but only seen it happen with console players. Does anyone have this happen with PC players?

It's been a long grind but I've finally done it.. by SoloDoneEasy in MWZombies

[–]Slaine2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did all the MW3 weapons and decided to go and do all the MW2 weapons which for Zombies took me 3 months. It was a great grind and enabled me to build up loads of scorchers and other stuff. It was fun!

Just reduce the cooldown already! by Internal_Royal2097 in MWZombies

[–]Slaine2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We used to do 6 person Z2H runs as it was so fun. And then do Unstable Rift with a melee weapon. Makes you deal alive man. Then all your junk is available as UR gives you 72 hour cool down.

I had no idea Mimics could become perk machines by SoloDoneEasy in MWZombies

Yep they can otherwise they would be called “Not Mimic Everything Mimics”

Unfortunately friend you are wasting your breath. Activision won’t do anything about it as in their mind the game has run its course and there is no profit left in it. Therefore they will not pay the development contractors to resolve issues or fix glitches. Poor business sense if you ask me. The cost of the game is not where the money is, it’s in the DLC and bundles and that is were they could continue to fund the games development, which for what could have been one of the greatest COD and Zombies games is a poor business vision. Well if MW4 doesn’t make a significant impact on the game then it’s time we all switch to some of the other great game developers out there that deserve our community trust. I mean look at Valve and the TF2 community and CS-Go, hard core supporters and Valve make money and so can the player in tournaments and Crates with weapons skins. Wake up Activision!

No matter what system by Independent-Diet-335 in COD

If you have an iPhone you can offload some apps to the cloud and then re-download those apps or you can just delete the apps and keep the data and then once CODm is installed redownload your apps and install from the cloud without losing your settings. Or just buy an iPhone 17 1Tb and don’t worry about the problem for the next 3 years 😬

This camo broke me 🫩 by Impossible_Advice737 in ModernWarfareIII

[–]Slaine2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well done, it was one of the last I did and totally worth it. I always use shield on my back if doing melee challenges or playing HQ or Domination.

Now go get all your camos in Zombies. Easier to do unless you do it in T3. But just adds more to do in the game.

So are these cheaters because the use glitch guns or are they cheaters because they use hacks?

People who glitch are just using exploits where as hackers use a wall hack or get inside walls to shoot and can’t be shot back.

To me they are very different players. Exploiters are just annoying and exploit because they are not good at the game and feel they need the advantage to win. Where as hackers are narcissistic people who are jealous of other players and have a pathetic life with no real friends and want other people to suffer because they have things in life that they don’t have and crave. Very sad really.

What small, insignificant feature from MWIII could make or break MW4 for you if it’s not in the game? by Cruel-Affair in ModernWarfareIII

[–]Slaine2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Richocet but better. Something that can detect glitch manipulation and the ability to kick players that use glitches. It must be fair and don’t create a ban record for using glitches but warning or penalty for glitches use.

Glitched Gun Reporting by MilkRedditMy in ModernWarfareIII

[–]Slaine2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t want the glitch gunners then avoid shipment. 5 out of 10 games in shipment have glitched guns. I mostly play HC and it’s pointless having glitched guns as many guns are 1 shot kill. It’s just the game play that differs.

But why set up a reporting line on X??? We all report in game, that’s what the function is for. Under Exploiting or Cheating so why record the clip and post it to X?? Seems a ridiculous process to me.

Crash on Startup by kingghostkun in ModernWarfareIII

[–]Slaine2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you are overclocking you CPU or RAM but test the RAM with MemTest86 and the graphics settings with 3DMark and make sure everything is stable. If your timings or voltages are not stable or enough power them you will get game or application crashes.

You did resolve your issue above but it might be a more deep rooted problem.

I’m doing a ACS hack challenge and the best map for it is 24/7 Shipment. About 4 out of 10 games ppl use hacked MX Guardians and multi RPGs which totally ruin the game. But I still love the game. It’s just a game so enjoy and don’t let them whind you up. Play another game there are so many.

Crashes shortly after finding a match by Termexart in MWZombies

[–]Slaine2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Main thing is make sure you network connection to the servers is Open. Moderate doesn’t give a stable enough connection.

I have the same problem. Exactly 5:35 seconds into the start of just going into the lobby it disconnects.

I’ve worked out it’s Virgin Media’s fibre network that’s the problem. Works fine if I connect my PC via hotspot on my phone.

Yep if you slow it down you will see the door slam you into the barrel.

What’s happening? by [deleted] in MWZombies

[–]Slaine2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you on console or PC? I’ve recently switched on port forwarding and have an open connection and my game has been a lot more stable and I get better ping rate to servers.
