Chali, can you please tell us the framerates you're getting? And what settings (low, med, high)?
The only reason I ask is because 30FPS is good to some people, while for others (like me) it's pretty laggy.
I'll only get it if average FPS is 40 (even though acceptable framerates for COD4 is 50+).
If you think 30fps is laggy ur on crack...the human eye can't even tell the difference past that...but all in all, 50 is nicer

well, if it was easy enough to change settings to get from 30 to 60, why would anyone play @30fps? and...I'm used to playing with anywhere from 7-16fps on this old 1.25 emac, so 30 would be gravy for me =)
I am waiting for my delivery for the 20" Alum with the HD2600 Pro, so I'm kinda excited to see the difference...
I and my wife both have iMacs (24" & 20", 2.4GHz, 4GB, 500 GB disk).
My 24" plays on the internet easily and in single player I can run CoD4 at 1900x1200 and it flies. On the net at 1200x1024 I get fps's from 25-70 depending on the smoke, number of people, and the country the server originates.
However, I cannot get the 2 macs connected on my lan so that the wife and I can play against each other. I have tried just about everything. The server starts fine on my machine, but I cannot see my server from her machine. She can connect to all the internet servers with no problem.
Does anyone have a clue to what might be wrong? Is it a security setting that is not proper, or permission problems, or the iMac firewall?
Thanks in advance for any help!

hey all
loving my new macbook! bought cod4 great game!
been getting into multiplayer now, one little think i need explaining...
when im playing for opfor, why are my weapons showing as marine ones and not opfor ones? surely its not suppose to be like that?
and yes ive updated with the 1.7 patch
thanks
30fps for some games is considered "unplayable" meaning that you won't really be able to enjoy it much. Games like World in Conflict play nice at 30fps and won't hinder gameplay much. But a game like CoD4? Especially when you're playing online, 30fps is way too low. Even for Counter Strike Source you'll be able to tell the difference between 50fps and 30fps. Like I said, it varies between games. For some games you will definitely be able to tell the difference because you'll notice stutters in the animations.
If there's a way you can do it (maybe mess around with the settings), play CoD4 at 30fps. Then change the settings so you can get above 60fps. You'll be able to see the difference. If you can't, then you must be on crack.
this is nonsense. I can clearly see the difference between 30 and 60 FPS, so saying that human eye can't tell the difference is just wrong. 60 vs 120 FPS is a bit more tricky, but still possible. Am I not human?
All in your head. You think there is a difference therefore you see a difference. Do a blind testing and then tell the difference between them.
Is anyone still playing online? Is it worth buying the game for my iMac now, or should I wait for something else?
