Ok, I'm going to embarras myself here. I downloaded the patch, which went to my downloads folder. I opened the CoD folder and then dragged and dropped the download into it. It didn't need extracting etc. I can see the download in the list within the CoD folder. I opened the game but the version is still the old one.
I figure I'm doing something wrong. It worries me that people are saying that you 'allow' it to overwrite other files. When I drop it into the CoD folder it doesn't overwrite anything.
Does it sound like I'm doing something wrong?

Yeh, I gather that others can as well, not sure of the cause, but I have had steam refresh everything and still no luck, I have redone them manually and they stick with no problems, but just cant save them to a seperate file.

my framerates dropped from about 60 to 30....and for that 30fps i had to lower my settings pretty drastically.
also the stutters are still very apparent.and honestly,they seem to be even worse with this beta patch on multiplayer.
i dont know what you changed since the last official patch, but i would really love to see the game performing like it was before.because it ran pretty smooth once upon a time.

+1

Multiplayer GUI improvements aside, I see no gain, framerates remain the same and stutters are back , big time. The last time I saw fluid play was the beta before the last official patch.

Just a quick one guys.

Everyone who is reporting MP issues; are you testing these on a server that has been patched?

If not then it doesn't count.

I'm at work so can't try things out till later.

I'm a bit bummed that apparently the ground control radio doesn't work.

Thanks for the reply though. I guess I'll be waiting months to play the game again.
You dont list your specs and seem to be having issues that not everyone are getting, it still may be at your end?

My specs are below. Had a direct conversation with luthier in the thread after the last official patch came out and he stated that I should be having zero problems.

Unfortunately I have 4 Major problems since last official patch and only after last official patch that a few others state they have as well since the last patch that nobody seems to be addressing. Unless what luthier ment in his previous post about "the rest of the performance related issues which are comparitively minor" was supposed to say "the rest of the major performance issues".

1) No AA
2) Stutters
3) Huge drop in FPS
4) Sound bug ( but everyone has this )

I'm just worried that there are only a few of us with these problems and nobody is even aware of it / are working on warships, shinny planes, ect... while the last patch rendered a perfectly working game useless.

Asus P8P67 Motherboard
I7 Processor 3.4 GH not overclocked yet
2X ASUS 6950 crossfire ( tried with and without enabled )
2 solid state hard drives raided (game installed here)
1 terrabite hard drive (nothing on it yet)
8 gigs ripjawx ddr3 ram
mega cooling heat sink to overclock processer when required
windows 7 ultimate
