BF2S Forums New sweet spot in CoD4

Wow. Any time FPS gets mentioned in a thread someone has to reference the human eye.

The human eye does not work in FPS. Smuder, what "quality" are you talking about? I sure wish there were video options for my brain but nah, their aren't.

Since most people now have LCDs, the whole "above 60 FPS" thing is bunk because that's not quite how LCDs work. That said, there is a limit to how many times an LCD updates per second. Suffice to say, 300 FPS will not be displayed on an LCD, and you have no worry of tunnel vision.

I did not say you cannot see the difference i said that at higher FPS you get tunnel vision so the eye can process the info it receives at those higher FPS.

Yeah, that's what you said, how's it relevant? No matter that, what's your reference? From what I've read, tunnel vision is caused by blood loss, high G's, drugs or disease, but not simply looking at something that's moving fast.

Thank you.

I use a CRT, which runs at 60Hz. Therefore, it does not refresh 125 times per second either.

o.O make the Hz higher, alot of pro CS:S and CS players like to play on CRT's because of the update rates. And who cares about the stupid human eye fps thing, 125 fps and 255 are the best you can get no matter what so everyone quit bitching about it and get over it.

What does the refresh rate have to do with anything?

It is the true FPS you will get. If you have 9000 fps and 60Hz monitor, your screen will refresh 60 times per second, even that the GPU would be capable of giving 9k frames per second.

Besides a CRT @ 60Hz hurts eyes. Over 85Hz is the way to go.

And said he didn't like it because it was pretty much like CS revamped.
Thought his review was pretty much dead-on.

and then read online about how you could hit fps "sweet spots" that gave you advantages in game.  I realize this is due to the engine it's running, but still...that's seriously bush league for a shooter.  I uninstalled it right after reading that.

You and your friend are complete morons this game plays nothing like CS. In CS you can shoot through everything not just through certain walls or fences. And CS is a game that takes skill not some game that anyone can pick up and in a month they can be good at.

Almost every fps has tweaks that can give you an advantage over people who don't know about them not just this game and besides you can use them too, such a dumb reason to uninstall a game.

I'd rather beat someone by skills rather than pissing about with settings.

It doesn't change anything that gives you an advantage. Stop whining, seriously.
