LOL. Someone needs a lobotomy.

Clod was released and still is BROKEN. It is not a PC issue.

ACE i have no idea what percentage of people have CTD's, i pulled the number out of my bum.

I was trying to get across the majority of people are experiencing CTD's online just like the testers, i wanted to know if they tested the patch online which they have.
They say post patch that they have fixed the CTD's on their PC's which says to me the CTD was software related, now lets hope when they release the patch its them same for the majority of us.

Ace this is your favorite reply isn't it? I'm sure I can find a dozen times you said BINGO for your answer. lol One more time please?

It does beg the question if they tested the orignal release on any PC's at all?? :grin:

Agreed 100%

Which was my point from the get go! Glad to see your up to speed 'now'

Just to be crystal, I don't think there is enough data to even say 'most'.

But based on past posts in this forum I would admit it apears to be about 2/3s do and 1/3 dont.

But we have to keep in mind that not everyone that owns CoD posts in this forum, thus even that is a skewed value.

Add to that the FACT that your poll on this subject was LOCKED becase of a few guys trying to promote the 100% CTD case were caught using multi handles to vote mult time and that number becomse even more worthlesss

Note I never said it was not software related! All I ever said is it is PC depended! Put another way, some PCs are more supseptable to the software bug than others.

Fingers Crossed!

S!

I'm just trying to push the pre-patch euphoria down to realistic levels here, imagine the anti-climax when some people still are experience regular CTD's after the patch. As B6 and luthier themselves said in the update:

Finally, we need to mention the launcher.exe crashes. This was a very hard issue to address as it wasn't caused by a single 100% reproducible bug, but rather rare combinations of various uncommon events.

It wasn't a single bug that they could just locate and squash with a couple of lines of code but by re-writing the engine and optimizing it they have probably minimized the chance of CTD's to a ridiculously low level. I'm sure someone will still have a CTD or two after the patch but they will most likely be a lot less frequent and a lot less common.

P.S There never was a CTD bug, the whole game engine was the bug.

You are like flies in a spider's net ... lol!

No, they tested on Etch A Sketches. Frame rates were a little slow, but they released it anyways.

PS would this be a bad time to point out that me.. the so called fanboy is pointing out that 1C may still have CTD issues post patch?

Which pretty much debunks anyone who ever thought of me as a fanboy! In that a true fanboy would be saying the following..

Huh.. kind of sounds like furbs last post? So is it safe to say furbs is a fanboy now? ;)

Yeah, I know, I'm a bit embarrassed really but I just know how this whole forum will just explode in whining after the beta patch is released and just one person gets a CTD, OMG it's so predictable it's not even funny.

Join the club! ;)

Oh wait.. for ATAG_Doc I mean bingo!

Just curious Ace, are you saying a memory leak in the code will affect only certain hardware configurations? Memory leaks in software code generally affect 100% of the users. The "1/3rd" of the folks that don't experience CTD's as you say, might have 16gigs of ram and restart their game after every mission. That doesn't mean that their isn't a leak in the code on those 1/3rd, it just means they haven't run the game in one session long enough.

Yep agreed, Not PC dependent.

All games sometimes CTD, i just hope it goes back to a rare event.

exactally!

Oh wait, for ATAG_Doc I mean bingo!

I have no idea how you got that from his post.

rather rare combinations of various uncommon events

That could easily include PC configuration.

Right Furbs! that's what I'm trying to say. I've had CTD's -both often and sometimes just once- in so many other PC games I can't remember them all. CTD's are almost never caused by a single bug, it's as luthier said, a combination of many complex events and that's why it's hard to cure.

In fact, I'd like to tell about a typical example. It's about the game Farcry 2, I used to play that game to bits a couple of years ago and after almost exactly 50 minutes during each session the game crashed, EVERY TIME. The problem was a memory leak that was claimed to be fixed in a patch but never was.

It could yes, but they dont expect people to change thier PC's do they?
They fix the code.

David, i didn't get the CTD online before the last patch, then after i did.

Ace of aces when you see the flash SMILE!!!

hope somebody do this IRL

Sorry, but this is gibberish.

You'll feel right at home then. Picking another meaningless fight?

Small dot at 12 o'clock. Growing larger. Has wings. Must be an argument on the horizon. Must be a Hayward, flaps stuck.

You really (ought to) take some beating.

Luthiers original statement insinuates there is more than 1 major reason CDT in the way of :

CDT's with this game are not "rare combinations of various uncommon events" beacuse our CDT (that keeps being refered to) has been reproduced many times and highlighted many times by users in this thread alone.

Meaning we have more than one reason for CDT happening.

Now, you lot are arguing over the wrong things yet again:

The CDT we know is solved, why? simple, because of the above statement alone shows that the users knew the CDT happening with a rough idea and were able to stave off that CDT by doing various things, If we knew it I'm certain the Devs figured that out and fixed it.


The CDT they are refering to is probably a different one that was very hard to reproduce but luckily hasnt happened so far on their systems.

To be fair lets hope it does happen on the beta so we can flag it and they can fix it.

Oh yeah and stop behaving like a bunch of fools each fighting their case like it is actually going to change anything. If we get CDT we get CDT thats what BETA's are all about.

It's a game, tough guy.

Exsample...

If developers release a patch for their game and that patch cause's CTD with Nvidia 580's, is the problem the patch or people's 580's?

Do they fix the code or tell people to change to ATI?

Yawn..

Well as a card carring concealed handgun licensed person

You better hope your aim is true because you will not get off a 2nd round before I return fire

Only if you're deliberately idiotic or childish enough to make everything into one, in a kind of frustrated-call-centre-worker-mentality sort of way.

Try some civility, for once, my ickle schnuggems...

Ok the wishing someones dead is the final straw in here.
