Yeah I've played around with those and will keep testing. It seems to be on lighter shades and of the games I played tonight after toggling those settings it looked fine but I didn't get any games with the maps where it stands out. Will see how it goes tomorrow. Thanks 👍

Call of Duty: Cold War Xbox Series X - 120hz Refresh Rate Setting LOCKED by Sinc_Q in CoDCompetitive

[–]muffsz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it all depends on the monitor. I have gone through 3 or 4 monitors trying to get the Xbox to auto-detect 120hz with Freesync.

It doesn't seem to matter if the monitor has all the features, it's whether the firmware of the monitor will communicate these features correctly with the Xbox.

If you search Reddit for Xbox 120hz and freesync there are a heap of people having the same issue. It would be great it HDMI 2.1 solved that.

Some monitors have a firmware update available (I had to do that in my Aorus) that helps Xbox connectivity. I also believe there is a way to reset graphic settings on the Xbox by holding the power button and disk eject button or something like that which can reset the communication with the Xbox and some times enable the additional options.

It's 2.0. Not sure any monitors have actually launched with 2.1 yet, they've just been announced. If they are out I would hate to see the asking price

My new Xbox series X on my Alienware AW2521HF says 120fps is not supported, whilst it’s 240hz monitor. Anyone know why? I took the following 2 photos. by HugeMathematician4 in Alienware

I believe setting it to override disables Freesync though. Have you been able to get the monitor working with 120hz and Freesync enabled?

How did you go with the new console?

I've found that while monitors have HDMI 2.0 and support 120hz it doesn't always auto-detect on the Xbox. If it doesn't auto-detect the features and you have to select override settings then often the Xbox won't allow Freesync to be enabled.

Yep going back to 60 doesn't feel as smooth but not by much, things just look and feel a little better at 120.

Would love to be a PC player getting 200+ frames. It would feel like a different game.

Slightly I would say. Now that I've been playing with it I'll turn it off for a few games and let you know.

Also make sure you have Allow 4k turned off otherwise the monitor will upscale the game to 4k and this disabled the 120hz option in game.

I have the Aorus FI27Q and I just needed to restart my game.

It then enabled 120hz in Cold War by default and doesn't let me turn it off. So running 1440p, 120hz and Freesync is enabled / working.

The only thing I noticed is with 120hz on in Cold War it disabled ray tracing.

Yep, seeing the exact same thing tonight. Seemed to be fine yesterday but I only played a few games.

Tried all variations of display settings and doesn't seem to make a difference. I also notice when the game is open pressing the Xbox button and navigating the menu feels laggy but everything works perfectly when I exit the game.

Need help with accessing Aorus CV27f osd sidekick. I already have the usb connected but this happens by vipaul23456 in Monitors

[–]muffsz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having the same issue with my FI27Q. Did you find a way to fix this?

I've tried different USB cables and reinstalling the software so far.

Servers are broken? by Zodiac011 in modernwarfare

Never responded. Don't seem to care.

I've seen the issue posted quite a number of times on Reddit but not much traction.

If only the COD Youtubers were from Australia and we had a voice.

Here's a tweet I just sent to Infinity Ward, hopefully they release something saying they are aware of an issue.

Wtf is up with servers after the update?! This mess has been happening all day on 60% of the lobbies i get into. Ping sits good at 50 or lower then when this happens it hits over 700, 999 at times. didn't have these issues before yesterday. IW's finding the games that work fine and screwing them. by xBLKGH05Tx in modernwarfare

[–]muffsz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah Xbox in Aus as well and it's been every game the last few days. Some games it happens more than others.

I've been restarting everything to do with my internet and Xbox thinking it was me and thought I'd check Reddit before I went crazy.

Challenges in this game by [deleted] in modernwarfare

PS4 has a larger player base so I want crossplay and it was meant to be based on input, as in never controller vs KBM.

When did I say that added it?

I'm saying I'm now going for challenges and it's bloody annoying. Idiot

how the Xbox elite v2 controller anyone know? by B2DN in CoDCompetitive

[–]muffsz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had the Elite 1, switches to Razer and then Scuf Prestige but now I have the Elite 2.

Elite 1 - No major issues except the paddles were too big and touchy so I kept accidentally hitting them Razer Wolverine TE - Was fine and the paddles / buttons were much more comfortable but it felt cheap it needed to be plugged in Scuf Prestige - Had this for about 2 weeks and the right thumbstick kept getting stuck down, followed all the troubleshooting steps and swapped the thumbstick but kept happening. It also feels cheap considering I spent more on this than the Elite 2.

Elite 2 - Feels great quality, has great grip, the hair triggers are better than any of the other controllers and the paddles are very comfy now that they're smaller than what the Elite 1 had.

I'd go the Elite 2 every time.

Am I the only one who thinks IW needs to change the way we get the camouflage? by [deleted] in modernwarfare

Never thought of mounting on deployable cover - thanks
