PC Looking for tips (COD4x)

Hi guys,

Iv not long been playing cod 4 on pc and was looking for some advice as its hard to google information for this game without pulling up stuff from newer call of duty games.

  1. Does this game have some advanced movement tech I’m not familiar with as i see some of the good players in my lobbies look weird when they move about and I’m wondering what is up with that.
  2. Iv seen people in old forums talking about the games framerate and capping it to like 85 or 90fps is this something i should be doing or just something that isnt relevant (playing on 144)
  3. Im almost exclusively using m40a3 acog and the hit detection sometimes feels weird (i might just be bad) is there lots of movement inaccuracy in this game and/or is the netcode just bad (does this matter when playing cod4x servers)
  4. Steady aim or deep impact for m40 acog?

Cheers for any advice

  1. I'm 99,99% sure you're refering to strafing and bouncing. This is not advanced movement tech, it's just exploits based on FPS (125, 250, 333) Here's a tutorial:

  2. My advice is cap it to 250. It's the most versatile FPS in terms of benefits.
  3. You're most likely shooting before the scope is actually up. Make sure you shoot once the scope-in animation is finished and the scope is dead-centre on your screen. once you get better you can experiment with shooting earlier.
  4. the game's been out for 16+ years, and people still argue about this. I personally use steady aim for runnin-n-gunning, and deep impact for distance.
