Well, the COD2_MP.exe has no protection whatsoever, only the single player. So the above statement isnt true


I am going to test this, if you are right then you can play multiplayer without any cracks and no image mounted at all, that would be great. Of course just valid cd key:)


Dont bother testing. The deviance release has only a crack for SP. The MP is original, and i dont have the dvd in the bay/ So the mp exe is fully intact


For the Motherland!

Just put the game on dx7 and be a happy camper. The differences between dx9 and dx7 is not even that big. It's a joke how it can run this bad when you enable dx9, and especially when you compare it to games like farcry which looks MILES better, but still runs ALOT better than this. To put it simple, this engine sucks ass. Smile


I don't know pallebrun, the game was more than playable using DX7. It looks fine and frame rates were through the roof obviously as they should be but having previously played the game in DX9 mode I found it to be too much of a step back in quality.

I'll maybe snap some pics later up if I can be bothered and show the differences on the Pointe Du Hoc level as an example. It just seemed like a totally different level and I say that as someone who isn't especially a graphics whore.

Starting out on the level your crusing into the beach on those boats and the guys suits/helmets and the skin on their face just look drenched through with water, the rocks, the sea, the explosions, the mist from the sea it just looks so atmospheric. When I tryed the DX7 mode just then it was hard to say the same thing so much of those fine details just aren't there.

All thats said without meaning to nitpick your opinion though pallebrun as you mentioned its a good alternative to struggling on DX9 plus I agree the engine does seem a little flaky I have wildly differing average framerates depending on which level/campaign im playing on. Smile

if you ask me this is just the q3 engine with some poorly implemented (spelling?) directx9 features...

Of course there are differences StarShine but they are not big enough to cause such poor performance on even a 9800pro, or atleast it shuldn't. This game shuld fly on a 9800pro the way it looks. It's just a very poorly coded game. They problary just optimized it for the xbox360, and released it on the pc to for a quick buck. Razz

Finished this game for 8-9 hours, got to say this is best ww2 simulator at this period of time.

(It runs great on 9800 pro 256 and p4 2.7.)

Here is diffrence between DX7 & DX9
DX7



DX9



Yes there is a diffrence but when everyone shooting & yelling at u
u forgetting where the fuk a u i'm not even talkin about gfx u just don't see anything a part from bullet traces & red circles[directions from where u getting shot]
about recovering without using medpack well i might say there will be a missions later when u barely have time to reload Rolling Eyes ,medpack yeah right Razz
it's good thing too so u won't have to run around like an idiot in seraching for medkits & stuff,full concentration on mission but without pushing your luck to the limit Wink

Have a problem with the game, Im in the British campaign in Toujane Tunisia, its the mission where you are on foot after the tanks mission and its totally unplayable. The lag is horrible but didnt had any problem so far. Anyone encounter a frame drop in this mission?

Guys one thing that made preformance +10 FPS better for me was setting image quality to High Preformance in windows, guess its due to all the new smoke effects and stuff ^^
Of course it runs great in dx7 mode, thats like playing CoD1, no dx9 is the way to go =D

hey wow! A WW2 shooter! That's like...an awesome idea, I wonder why we haven't seen more games useing the WW2 theme. It just seem so natural you know?

....

SO anyway, aside from complete lack of any originality, how does this game compare to CoD1? I mean, I've had a pretty good tour of WW2...I've flown aircraft, I've stormed Omaha, Juno...heck probably all the beaches. I've kicked ass and took no prisoners as a russian. Honestly I think I participated in every known campaign in WW2. I shit Medals of Valor in the morning and Honour at night. What can this game -possibly- offer...???


i can has computar?!

The American campaign is awesome....u storm omaha beach, but like 3 miles west of it and u gotta climb up a rock face and take out these guns and shit....

Its like every other WW2, just wicked graphics and very dramatic/cinematic
Ive played every ww2 shooter out there and this one is the best imo...with cod1 and moh:pa coming in a close second.

You are basicaly right, but if you want to try out games using the latest graphics and sound etc this might still be a dam good canditate. I personaly tend to try out games for those reasons alone. HL2, FAR CRY etc etc. COD2 is for sure up there with alot of those mentioned, but still it is a WWII FPS shooter...but just the best out at the mo. Give it a try, nothing wrong with stoming in to Stalingrad...for the 101st time, but do it in style couse thats what COD2 is alll about, sleek and full of new eye candy.
I would recomend Forgotten Hope 2 when it comes, I know I know its a BF2 MOD but if you are in to WWII stuff online....well it wont get better then that.

Game is much smoother using dx7 as mentioned by others, and the differance isnt that much, considering you can use higher resolution and better textures etc.
Despite the sucky engine, this game is an absolute blast to play. So much going on around you, very intense battles. Miles better than the pos game that was Brothers in Arms where you had to cut down tree stumps in order for the allied troopers to land safely...

this game is missing:

Psychics.
Gore.
Good AI.

Apart from that it's ok but exactly the same as cod1 but with some bumpmaps with makes it run at half the fps of cod1

Well the mp should be decent anyway...

I HATE ACTVISION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
those lame-ass stupid mother fuckers, they should burn in hell why the being hanged upside down from the ceiling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
god! the demo worked just fine, but the full game? noooooooooooooo...! they felt that the story of the world war II is just isnt setisfing, so they decided that they must put some monster-kind graphic engine, so every one who want to play the game with the lowest settings on everything, would need to upgrade his computer in something like 700 jazilion dolar.
god. i so fucking hate them.
