"Well, CoD is not the only game on the market that does not work on every PC out there"

Which says more about 'those' PC than CoD.. At which point they will feel more comfortable buying CoD knowing that the game runs fine for more people than not

And there are CF simmers, programers, etc out there whos PCs run CoD just fine!

Just to be clear, I am not saying CoD will run fine on any PC out there! What I am saying there are PCs out there that CoD runs fine on. Since CoD runs fine on some and not others points the finger at the PC more than it does CoD

Which is true of many games.. I know people who I play ARMA with who have to turn down the graphics setings to obtain decent FPS.. I also know guys who fly RoF who have to do the same. I also know guys in both camps that 'found something' after much tweaking of there PC that made the 'game' run better. Which brings us back to spaure one..

That being IMHO most of the issues people are having with CoD has more to do with thier PC than CoD. Only comming here you get a FILTERED impression that it is more bad than good.

Why?

Becuse most people for whom CoD runs fine on their PC are off playing CoD and not bothering with this forum. Where as people with problems come here looking for soultuions, some find them and move on, some dont. Its that simple
