Call of Duty 4 patch now available for PS3

Seriously, us 360 people are ready for the next update by now.

3.5Million 360 COD4 users opposed to PS3's 1Million owners Thank God =)

Don't know where you get your info, Fenix.
VGChartz says 2.63m for PS3, 5.2m for 360.

In either case there are 2 mil more 360 players than PS3 players....

Still no excuse to make 1/3 of the console players wait a month for a patch.

No, there are no Dedicated servers for that game on PS3. I was also experiencing that on the PS3 version but now its just fine.

I'm not sure as I haven't really played this game (not much of a FPS fan...) but there were articles about Infinity Ward having problems with their hosting servers...

So I'll guess that they do use dedicated servers for COD4...

Ok thanks.... I have heard that it is a great online multiplayer game but I haven't been able to play it... it looks like I should have picked it up on the 360 instead.... Still enjoying Army Of Two on the 360 for now though .... Now I am debating wether or not purchase Vegas.. it got killer reviews in GI this month (Alpha Protocol on the cover btw) but with my recent purchases (SSBB, Army Of Two, Patapon, GOW Olympus, Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, MLB 08 The show and The Club) I do not hink I will have any free time for the next 2 months for any new games. BTW I like to splurge when I get my tax return. One possibility is returning my unopened copy of The Club for vegas or GT:Prologue.

I will try some COD 4 multiplayer tonight on the PS3 which I am sure will be an entire new addiction.

Noshino,

You guess wrong buddy WRONG!!!! lol!!

Straight from infintyward forum =)

We do not have dedicated, hosted, no-client servers on PS3 or 360. The PC game comes with a dedicated server executable for people to run if they want to set up a dedicated server, but the console game does not.

We choose the best host from the people in the match lobby, based on a ton of factors including bandwidth and everyone's ping to the host (it's got no relation to who was first in the lobby or anything like that.) Then that host serves as the server for that match. It's not "peer to peer" in the sense that clients don't run their own part of the server and send that gamestate around to each other over the net (which is what I personally think of when I hear "peer to peer".) But it's also not "dedicated" in the sense that most folks think of it.

If it helps, think of it as being similar to a "listen server" in a typical PC MP game, except the game chooses who'll run the server per match based on how good it thinks you'd be as a host.

The 360 and the PS3 are identical in this respect"

my bad, thanks for the info Fenix

No problemo, at least your not like Kayrazy Ken who is traumatized lol. Anyway it sais they have Global servers for both 360 and PS3 but actual dedicated servers they do not. Which explains the outage when the unexpected PS3 PSN overload.

There's no hacks for either console version. You must be thinking of the PC. Consoles don't get hacks like that.

If the vid I saw was real, then that's just sad.

Nice FUD, it's the PC version.

It's understandable why yout are update, since you realised that the first to market is not always the best...

How convenient of you not to verify your claims or allow anyone else to do it either.

Really not that hard to verify if what he is saying is true or not... Google is everyone's friend

That is crazy. It's kind of a slap in the face to those xbox live critics out there who say that the nature of Live's strict structure is a negative. Honestly security is a big reason I don't place PC games anymore.

"I will post my source for all those non-believing turd burglars that can not use Google."

LOL, you must mean Tranando & xGabrielx.

You mean the days when console games would get shipped with bugs that simply never got fixed?

Yea I'm glad those days are gone too.

Are you kidding me?
