I misspelled crater, there is no way to edit the title is there?

imo, just as a 3rd party, its not enough to say hacking for the events mentioned above. I see a good amount of corner checking when going through doors and such. A common practice. Except for a few times nobody was there. Could be checking for campers roasting weenies... and there are many here... or simply keeping in mind that corners are common spots for defrosters to be if you know a frozen enemy is near.

 

There were a few times where I said to myself 'hmmm' why do that? Also, its so noisy with all the explosions I cant imagine that footsteps would have been a factor. However maybe eavesdrop? If I had that in my loadout I wouldnt tell my enemies.

Sammy I know all the tricks so I am usually the 1st one to give people benefit of the doubt. This demo doesn't capture all his quirkiness. I was specing him in over time, didn't think he was hacking at the time, just wanted to see how he bested me. I saw him stare at a building on the right side of the river in that map. Shaking his mouse at a blank wall up and down and slowly walking up to and aim directly at Mexican's head and shoot him. Mexican was on the top floor of a building behind it. Even if someone gives you intel, you still need to look to find the person. He knows exactly where people are Intel or Not. Did you see where he shot Wardogs in the corner? He didn't even look anywhere else. 

He is a sharp wall hacker, knows how to use it right so it makes it difficult for us to catch him. He ruined the entire game for us, well his opposing team. I am not the first one to suspect, Shifter spec'ed him for 2 games and he called him out. I didn't believe Shifter at first until this guy started playing against me.

Please move this thread to a member's only section. I don't know how to do that. I agree this is not sufficient to confront him but he is definitely turning his hack on and off during the game. Especially, when he realized he is being watched. I called in P!nk to do it.

Points to focus...

- first shot with his pistol. He knew exactly where I was.

- when he shot Wardogs in the corner

- when he shot bobo, special emohasis on how quickly he turns since he missed him.

You can give people intel, but they still need to look to know the exact location. He claims KiillerKitty gave him intel, I will accept that argument for some kills not for when he kills Wardogs and goes to defrost Pete.

Weed, check your settings to see if the in-game voice chat is enabled. Also, type /cl_voice 1 to enable voice chat . Let me know  how that goes...

My guess is pro Russian separatist who grabbed hold of a BUK SAM system just went trigger happy. When they found out its a civilian aircraft, they quickly backtracked. 

Months?

this seems to raise a red flag here....are you telling me that plane took a course that was no where near goin to russia/ukraine border....end up re positioning the plane once again after take off and still made all that way undetected by anyone and after all these months just now finding it at russia / ukraine something very fishy here even since take off nothing has added up ...even now...i just find it hard to believe that the plane was shot down hours after take off and it took so many months to find? really? i think something smells worse than tuna here...

Cobra this is not the flight that was lost in the ocean. This is a new incident!

You think ice would melt in the water. Flawed science, flawed I tell you!

So lets see, if FF is turned on, and you get killed by a teammate do you still freeze in a bubble or respawn right away? Also, how would that fare for mini nukes, predator missiles, or AGMs etc? If this were all about shooting only with no Killstreaks I can see how this could "improve" the game play. 

FF is very annoying, for example, when you get killed by a dumbass teammate whose nade bounces back next to you. It would slowly kill our server.

Then you will just have htobyC and Sammy left giving each other reach arounds. Maybe NITRO will watch, you never know with the Aussies .

What times do you play?

I had to find the right viewing distance, sitting too-close started to give me a headache. You have to iadjust the windows Zoom to be able to read text properly. Overall, very satisfied now after calibrating the colors and configuring the settings. The build quality of the stand is a joke. LG needs to learn a thing or two from Acer, Asus, Dell etc.. when building stands.

fu monitor..better buy some skill  beech

low player... low monitor

bring it on beech... I will kick your ass beech...

Sorry i was reading "Xfire crashes game on new map load"

Im using nvidia with the xfire that work

My laptop has an NVIDIA and it caused the same issue on that. Anyways, I have just learned to live with it. Not worth my time any more. 

Thank you all for the replies.

Nitro use the built-in record function. Once finished, play the demo and use X-fire or Raptr from AMD to record the demo you just recorded. This way you don't have to worry about losing frame rates and you can play with the quality of the video too. Kludgy? Sure, but you have more control over recording options.

I made this after I recorded the whole thing...

If your xfire is start-up when your pc is starting up windows then try this.

After your pc is done with his start-up part then close complete xfire then change your screen resolution to 1 step lower resolution.

Then start-up xfire is all is working fine then close again xfire complete and change your screen resolution to the one you want and start-up xfire.

 

Remember xfire must be complete off so no on-line or background parts when you change the resolution

 

You can try this no harm to the pc

No X-fire doesn't Autostart with Windows. I started using AMD's Gaming Evolved Raptr overlay software that is light weight and more stable than Xfire. It connects to my Xfire account and just works. Now I can take screen shots or make videos whatever I want to do.

A very nice read, I can't say how authentic it might be but sounds informative.

.................. A snippet

If you havent, turn up cl_maxpackets to 100 and see what happens.

That would have more to do with game play than the commands processed by the in-game admin system, no? The stats system is rather slow as well, and pings are high for most players . I think Sitting- is to look at this.

On another note, I am wondering if we are being mildly DDoS'ed. Perhaps we're just overloaded. During the day my ping is 150+ at night its 94-100 ms.

this didnt start happening to me til we got into these newer ftag mods for mw2 think its def something with the mod causing it...not too much bother just pain to get it to close out so i can re join...

You're right it doesn't happen with the normal game only when loading maps for our FTAG mod. All the other stuff game modes its fine.

Thanks Loco that stopped the Xfire in-game overlay. For whatever reason when you set it through settings it never worked. Now the game doesn't crash, I will do some more testing. On another note, it takes the functionality Screen Capture or Video making functionality away from you. 

Assuming you don't have issues with your internal network connectivity.Did you try the following network com commands already?

Network Optimization

--------------------------

/cl_maxpackets 100 (0~100)

/cl_packetdup 2 (0~5)

Hope that helps... you could always move to New York or bribe Rugger in to hosting the server somewhere close to you .

it only makes my direct x fail and crash game

I think that's what's happening the background. My gaming desktop has an AMD while my gaming/workhorse laptop has NVIDIA and it crashes the game on both. On the laptop it did it, after i lowered my resolution to get better FPS and possibly reduce screen jitter. I have not found a working solution yet. I will be emailing Xfire supoprt. The worst part is that there isn't even any crash log I can analyze as to what's causing this.

Guys,

Maybe someone can help me. I have an issue with X-Fire whenever a new map is loading it crashes my game's resolution. My screen gets stuck, if I am lucky it lowers my resolution and the game recovers. However, if I quit the game after the recovery the screen will go blank, as if there is a handle on an object not properly released from memory. 

Screen Resolution: 2048x1152

GFX Card: Radeon HD 7870

If it recovers, it lowers my resolution to 1080, 720p, 480p or some times downright 600x400, WTF? It doesn't do it right away, most of the time it will do it on a new map load.

A stable alternate is Overwolf which works with TeamSpeak but its a little finicky to use. Any ideas why this happens? I think it has to do with my screen resolution but playing at 1680x1050, which is what it lowered to once, didn't work for too long either. 

On another note, does anyone use a 4K monitor? Does Xfire work well for you?

Thanks in advance!
