K0NSPIRACY

I’d like to know this too. I usually force servers further away if I can remember to do so, but if I connect to low ping server then I’m literally instantly dying in a bullet yet the killcam shows the other player emptying half a clip on me. It genuinely feels like I’m at least half a second behind on UK or French servers.

Oh right…that’s for Geo Filter. I thought it was with regards to TP.

Ok thanks. I’ll test with Classified then. I didn’t realise port 443 had anything to do with circumventing SBMM, but I can confirm that it definitely doesn’t work!

What rules or settings should I need to use to give it a go? From what you said, the DPI update relates to packets so that would suggest a TP rule is required (at the moment I don’t have any).

Ok I also deleted that rule earlier as it didn’t do anything. So the information posted in this thread is incorrect? https://forum.netduma.com/topic/40383-wz2mw2-change-region/

Using this guys recommended Dolby Atmos settings with Home Theatre setting in game, and it’s the best audio I’ve had with MW2 so far.

Before. I only just did what Liam suggested so I have no idea whether or not it has done the DPI update. I haven’t signed up for that early access.

I don’t see this preset. Is it part of the DPI update too?

Which TP rules should work best for MW2? I’ve tried DumaOS Classified, Games Console and a rule for port 443, but I dont notice any difference. If anything, the best results are when I had TP turned off.

Does this automatically negate the need for CC, BA and TP rules then if you have the DPI update?

Ok thanks. So what @Netduma Liam posted above isn’t correct then if we have to sign up to get the DPI update?

Thanks @Netduma Fraser How will I know if the DPI update has installed? Will it look any different or have other options? I’m on R2 3.2.453, gone to Device Manager, clicked Resync Cloud, get the operation is taking longer than expected message, rebooted…and it looks the same as it did before. Am I missing something?

@Netduma Liam What’s DPI? Edit: just did as described above and nothing happens other than “operation is taking longer than expected” message. How will I know if the DPI update has installed?

Where are you based and what are your normal down and up speeds? I’m based in UK with 74/18 playing on XSX, and these settings didn’t make any improvements…in fact, it felt worse in game.

Tested this tonight and if anything it made my connection worse…either that or the MX9 really does shoot marshmallows! (doing the camo challenges and never want to use this gun again). You may be finding some placebo affect or SBMM has loosened for you. From my understanding, the QoS sliders are only required if you have other devices that are using your bandwidth, so for me it may have an adverse affect as my XSX is the only device utilising the internet when I’m gaming.

Thanks. Will test his Dolby Atmos settings tonight. 👍

Ok thanks. I’ll give it a go and test it out. I’m on 74 down and 18 up, so would you say still set down to 85% or go lower?

Do you do this using the QoS sliders? How low are you going with the download speed??

Been testing a few settings and have now found Home Theatre with flat Dolby Atmos EQ works best for my headset plugged in to Elite2 on XSX. I used to find Home Theatre to be too quiet but I’ve played around with the XSX audio sliders and the volume levels in game. Directional audio isn’t the best but it’s better than I’ve experienced so far on this game.

How do you look up players stats? I can only see my own and not even my friends.🤔

Most likely SBMM if you’ve been running 1.6KD.

No one wants to blame themselves for dying quickly especially if it means we missed shots or didn’t get headshots 😂…but yeah, I totally understand what you’re saying! 👍

Apparently the 75% audio buff in the update was a bug and has been reverted back to how it was at launch so footsteps should sound quieter than they did a few days ago for anyone that thought that footsteps were now louder.

I was watching TacticalBrit/Westie earlier and they said that PS players have much better sound in game compared to Xbox and PC due to the PS audio engine…so if you’ve got it then use it. I mainly tested in game audio settings, volume level tweaks and Dolby Atmos tonight so will test Mono audio settings again over the weekend.

I can’t use Sonar on XSX (as far I’m aware) but will test Home Theatre again.
