Do the control surfaces themselves respond with lag or is it just the control column graphic?

Sorry, I missed that.

Have you tried turning off Windows Aero?

I am assuming you tried what was suggested in the comments, turning off anthropomorphic?
And obviously deactivating aero?

If you have done the above then I would do what I call a uniform fix-it.

Uninstall and reinstall all drivers even if they work well. Make sure your windows is up to date. Then disable anthropomorphic and aero and try.
Then set all graphic options to their lowest, disable anything that can be disabled setting wise and see if you still have the problem.

Also post your hardware settings so we can compare apples with apples.
Will say my computer gives me instant feedback to all movements.
Point of interest do you have trackir?

Does anybody know what the status of hit decals is in the final patch? I don't seem to get any bullet holes now - and the ones that do appear seem to disappear soon thereafter...

Thanks

I tried the game's prior patch to the latest official steam patch, and still got the input lag. Thats why I asked.
I wanted to know if others who had the input lag prior to this patch no longer have it with the new patch.

And no I will not do a reinstall of windows just because of this game. I have done it before several times without any improvements. Waste of time. And to all those tricks about turning down Aero and so on: yes I have done em all.

Do I have to build my own computer around this game to make it work? Maybe the developers should make their game work on their player's?
And all my other flight sims are working perfectly so the problem is clearly in this game.

Read carefully, I did not say reinstall windows, just reinstall latest drivers for things like I don't know, your joystick, sound card, lan, network...
Had a very irritating problem with another game, nothing I did seemed to fix it, so I went back to the basics. Turned out to be a soundcrad driver problem. Loaded the latest one for 64bit and everything was working smoothly.
You still have not posted system specs? Asking for help and not even bothering to do that is...

I assume you mean you tried turning Aero off. If you fly FSX you'll know FSX turns Aero off when it starts, presumably Microsoft recognising some kind of issue with it.

It has become obvious that for a fairly small percentage of players there is a problem either with input lag or some other issue including some that could not even start the game (don't know if that has gone away). So yes CoD has some bugs buried deeply in it that certain PC setups seem to tease out. Its impossible to tell what the causes of some of these are, there are so many possible PC configurations not to mention how they are set up to run or what may be running on them.

Perhaps what we really need is someone to make a completely fresh start on a WWII combat air sim.

btw tomandre81, you still don't help your cause by not including your specs in your posts. You never know who may look in and spot something he is aware of. Its a bit dog-in-a-manger to repeatedly complain but not help others to help you. No offence intended but no-one is going to study all your past posts to find out your PC spec. This is a very helpful community but you need to give them a fighting chance with your problem. For example I went outside the community and googled the input delay problem and found that thread on a completeley different forum for another application. Have you tried that more general approach to the problem?

Also it may seem like bad CoD code but perhaps CoD is making calls that none of your other games do.

Do you have your mini-stick mapped to anything other than pov? If so it is known to give input lag.
Hope that helps
