    Call of Duty 2 multi

    Hi all, I have applied the COD 2 patch v 1.2 and have found I have lost loads of the servers I used to connect to. I understand that there is punkbuster included and that has cut them down, but i still find people cheating? Any ideas or should I just uninstall the patch.
    Thanks

    Call of duty 3 - that must be some horrible console title that uses a joypad to aim? Think I can wait till COD4 for a keyboard and mouse.

    To be honest I used to have the same opinion, i could never understand how people played FPS games on consoles. Then I played Ghost Recon on a mates trixty and loved it and since then I've bought several console FPS titles. I still prefer keyboard and mouse (im a wiz ^_^) but I no longer look at console FPS games as 'unplayable'.

    Yep.

    Joypads use a relative positioning method whereas mouse control is absolute. Therefore joypads/joysticks dont suit games where the control is designed to be ur actual hands (FPS) since it is unnatural. They are more suited to driving or flying games since the control over vehicles is relative.

    Mouse control suits FPS since moving the mouse a certain distance directly relates to the movement seen on screen.

    This is why in Battlefield 2, the recommendation is often to use the mouse to control ur soldier, but use a joystick when in a vehicle (such as an aeroplane).

    FPS games on consoles tend to compromise the gameplay by adjusting for the handicap of using a joypad. This is done in 2 ways:
    • The aim has a lock control - where if ur crosshair is near the enemy and u press the button, ur sights lock on to them.

    • The enemies are fewer in numbers and not as responsive. This gives the player the extra time needed to waft the crosshair over the enemy.


    I beleive though that a change is on the horizon (if it takes off properly), with the new Wii controller. This gives players an absolute control device for their consoles, where in FPS games, the controller is assumed to be the gun itself. In fact, this is probably an even greater "natural feel" than using a mouse.
