Re: COD WAW Online and Multiplayer

I have that game and it works fine. Whatever that woman in the shop said is rubbish. The system specs on a back of a game are the minimum required for the game to run. If you have better than the minimum specs then thats excellent.

First of what grraphics card are you using?

Re: COD WAW Online and Multiplayer

Although your specs are better than the minimum they are not great. Do this and you'll update everything you need and can then test for speed:

  1. Install the patch from here: Call of Duty, World at War
  2. Download and install the Catalyst Software Suite then reboot
  3. Download and install these: DirectX (You need this whether you running DirectX 9, 10 or 10.1) and C ++ then reboot
  4. Download, install then run Fraps
  5. Run your game
You will now notice in the top left corner of your screen a number thats changing. Thats how many frames a second you are getting. When playing a level you want it to never go beneath 25 frames a second. If it does then you will need to go into the game options and change the resolution your using to a lower setting and change the graphics quality until you reach a combination that works best.
