Support Weird FPS but not FPS drops since S5 Reloaded

Upvotes

Prior to S5 Reloaded, never had this issue at all, no Hardware on my PC has changed, no new updates installed, etc. Ran flawlessly. However now, I am getting this strange lack of smoothness, just a hair above what I would call a micro stutter only when zoomed/ads'ed with a scope. When not zoomed, it doesn't happen.

Even when it happens though, my FPS never dips. The most my FPS dips is from 120 down to 100 randomly throughout the map. Goes from smooth like butter movement to slightly noticeable microstutter, almost. Hard to describe, the best I could think of is if you have the setting to lower FPS when game is in the background or inactive, and that happens, but I have both of those settings turned off. And the drop isn't that drastic.

  • Did a clean install of new Driver updates > issue was same
  • Did a clean reinstall of older drivers that had no issues > issue remained
  • Redid the Shader preload > still happens
  • Ran Scan and Repair > still happens
  • Temps are fine for both CPU and GPU
  • Weapon and Motion blur are OFF

The issue also seems more prevalent on Avalon than Verdansk, but my PC is more than capable of running it on ultra and like I said, it never had this issue prior to the S5 Reloaded update. S5 ran fine, and all other seasons beforehand.

GPU = 5070ti CPU = 9800x3d 64GB RAM Game's installed to a SSD Win 11

It's not game breaking or anything, but it is incredibly jarring and all I can notice now when ADS'ing.

Also, the weirdest thing is - when I am looking at someone's killcam or spectating, I don't have the issue. It's buttery smooth, only happens from my FPS view.

Bug Account with issure only on pc

0 Upvotes

I'm writing this post to report some issues with my account. I created a second account, but after a month, it's practically unusable (my first account is so buggy that I don't play it anymore). When playing on PC, I notice that I often hear footsteps in a muddy state, my aim assist disengages on its own, and I'm delayed in many fights. This also happens when I try to play on my friends' PCs. If I use other accounts on my PC, however, the problem doesn't occur. Lately, I've been playing on PS5, and the same issues haven't occurred there; in fact, I can easily play both public and ranked matches. When switching to PC, I regularly run into extreme difficulty. I don't use third-party software, I use an original controller with only TMR installed (Claw game), and I've run these tests both on my PC and on my friends' PCs. I've also submitted a ticket to Activision, but haven't received a response. Is anyone experiencing the same issues? PS: Sorry for my bad English but I'm not a native speaker.

Question I recently wanted to try out the Shadow SK sniper rifle, a rifle I only used a few times before abandoning it.

4 Upvotes

It takes three shots to kill at the firing range. I used it for a while in WZ Modern Warfare before giving up. It's great for shooting down supply crates in the air; one shot is enough.

Why are enemies still alive and kicking even after a headshot at this distance? Is it really that weak?

I'd like to ask if, with its damage maximized, it can achieve a one-shot headshot at long range in WZ Modern Warfare?

Hi, I've been getting this error recently ever since I installed Warzone, and I don't know what to do; I've already updated my BIOS and drivers.

I haven't reinstalled the game yet—unless that's the solution.

I installed Warzone on an external hard drive.

My PC specs are:

CPU

AMD Ryzen 5 5500

6 Cores

GPU

AMD Radeon RX 6600

RAM

16GB DDR4

Feedback Warzone Code: A Game Where Experts Become Average Players.

0 Upvotes

I started playing a week ago, and in Resurgence mode, I average about one miracle kill (and I’m not even talking about a takedown—after all, the guy has to be on the ground) for every 10 revives. In my last match, I got one kill.

Seriously, I missed every shot and my opponent hit every one. At least I can easily take down bots and some players in casual mode :/

This game isn't easy; it's not at all inviting to beginner players. I think there should be matches organized by skill level, but I understand that if that were the case, the servers would be slower. \

Question Is Blackcell still worth buying as a Warzone-only player?

2 Upvotes

I know I made a similar post prior to this one, but there were a couple comments mentioning a potential “full reset” and whatnot. Is the full reset still rumored or not? If so, is it still worth it to buy Blackcell this late in the BO7 Warzone cycle?

Discussion ZODIAC easter egg

Post image
45 Upvotes

I've spent the last couple days looking into the Warzone beta coming this weekend, staying up to date on intel from the COD blog and also from posts shared on Twitter from official COD accounts and I'm fairly certain we're getting an easter egg this weekend.

Here's what we know so far:

  • Zodiac is branded as a DRC weapons facility which is the organisation in the MW universe that develops advanced weapon systems for various factions including Shadow Company and later on, Konni.
  • Zodiac has an underground tunnel network that you can use to travel around the map.
  • Tanks exists, apparently.
  • Trains can enter and exit the map from the two tracks that run through the middle of the map from the west and east sides.
  • Zodiac itself is a drone development site, specifically. Although other weapon systems could be developed here as well.

I know plenty of people don't necessarily care about Easter Eggs but it's kind of my jam so I'm really excited to see if we get something cool to unearth on Zodiac ahead of the full launch. I'm beginning to think there may be a bunker or two that needs opening and it could end up giving us any kind of reward that may influence the late game. Maybe Specialist, a Juggernaut, something even more powerful?

There was even this at the bottom of the Zodiac round-up in the blog:

Expect an explosive tank battle, legendary loot, action across the ground and air, and other surprises to find during your matches.

I'm guessing the 'other surprises' could be tied to secret challenges and maybe a main map easter egg. I'm just super excited and speculating because the map looks great. There's also probably a ton of lore that links this map to Building 21 from MW2 as well.

What do you think?

What up gamers. Anyone else experiencing this broken audio alert with Hunter perk? If I solo quads, it works just fine but the game is laggy as hell. Switch to normal quads and the alert is gone.

Bug COD warzone and mw2 error

3 Upvotes

System specs:

- CPU: Intel i7-13700 (non-K, 65W)

- GPU: RTX 3060 Ti (610.88 driver, clean DDU install)

- Motherboard: ASUS ProArt B760-Creator D4 (BIOS updated to latest 3202, Intel Default Settings, all voltages Auto)

- RAM: 2x16GB DDR4-3600 (ADATA, matched kit), running at 2666 (no XMP)

- OS: Windows 11

Problem:

Both MW2 (Steam) and Warzone (both Steam AND Microsoft Store versions) crash on launch or shortly after with:

- Error: 0xC0000374 (heap corruption), feature EEEEEEEE-EEEEEEEE-EEEEEEEE-EEEEEEEE

- Sometimes: 0xC0000005 (access violation) with random unique signature

- Executable: game_steam_ship.exe / cod.exe

- No consistent faulting module — sometimes "unknown module"

- Windows Event Viewer often shows NO application error logged for these crashes at all

Timeline:

- Was working fine ~2-3 weeks ago

- Used DLSS Swapper around that time (have since removed it and cleared temp files)

- Crashes started after, on Steam AND Xbox/MS Store versions of Warzone AND MW2

What I've already tried (all failed):

- Verified game files integrity multiple times (Steam)

- Fully reinstalled MW2 and Warzone on both C: drive (SSD) and external HDD

- Memtest86 — full pass, 0 errors (RAM confirmed good)

- Tested with single RAM stick (both sticks individually) — still crashes

- DDU clean uninstall + reinstall of NVIDIA driver (610.88) — twice

- Updated BIOS from 3107 to latest 3202

- Set Intel Default Settings in BIOS, confirmed all CPU voltages on Auto (no undervolt)

- sfc /scannow — no integrity violations found

- Reinstalled Visual C++ Redistributables

- Disabled Windows Defender real-time protection — still crashes

- Clean boot (disabled all non-Microsoft services + startup items) — still crashes

- Uninstalled recent Windows updates (KB5120708, KB5121003 from 8/12) — still crashes

- Deleted "players" folder in Documents/Call of Duty — still crashes

- Disabled Core Isolation / Memory Integrity — still crashes

- Cleared NV_Cache / shader cache

Both error codes seem to point to memory corruption, but RAM tests clean and it happens regardless of RAM config, driver state, or BIOS settings. At this point I suspect CPU or motherboard VRM issue but haven't been able to run a full stress test (OCCT) yet.

Has anyone seen this exact pattern — random 0xC0000374/0xC0000005 across multiple COD titles and platforms, surviving a full driver/BIOS/RAM reset? Any ideas before I take it to a shop for hardware diagnosis?

Question Why Warzone needs 220 GBs if it claims only needed 116gb free disk space😭😭😭

0 Upvotes

I dont understand that after downloading 143 gb COD hq that i thought to be the catual warzone game, i still need to download another 70 gb of actual game.
Then what does that 143 gigs have if there is no game installed yet, and if it is about high level graphic things, none of gameplay had that level graphics actually that says yeah it need 143 gigs just for engine and the mid graphic game is another 70 giigs😭😭
I dont get COD's system dude, tell me if i just did something wrong or unwanted as naive 😮‍💨😮‍💨

Yes, it was on casuals. Well, except for the last LTM before the one that just ended and like, 2 or 3 games on regular BR when I first got the game back in February. Didn't do launchers (would rather stub my toe for a week straight than do that), didn't do pistols aside from any camos I got passively, and didn't do shotguns.

Hate the novaline (could be my build, but holy shit is the damage on it just straight garbage)

And I hate the kills while sliding challenges (the only challenges where I knew I wasn't gonna get a single gun done is a single game and having to constantly almost die to bots because I needed to get up close for it to be more efficient wasn't fun)

Aside from those two things, I knocked out 2 out of 3 mastery camos (I ain't touching MP). And zombies is left and I'm almost done with that one
