Required Ports ----- UDP 20800 UDP 20810 UDP 28960 Hardware + Bandwidth Requirements --------------------------------- Bandwidth and server resource usage should be lower than that of COD2 in most situations, but it is not guaranteed. There are some situations where bandwidth usage may spike, and the server will get hit harder than usual. Generally, if you're capable of hosting a COD2 dedicated server you should be just fine for COD4. starting a dedicated server ---------------------------- LAN server ] iw3mp.exe +set dedicated 1 Internet server ] iw3mp.exe +set dedicated 2 Modded server ] iw3mp.exe +set dedicated [1,2] +set fs_game "mods/<modname>" start map ] map <mapname> example usage: ] iw3mp.exe +set dedicated 2 +exec my_server.cfg +map mp_crash my_server.cfg contains customized settings which are detailed below. syntax: set <dvar> <value> server commands --------------- ] killserver ] quit ] map_restart ] say "my message" ] tell [clientnum] "my message to you" server settings -------------- map rotation ] sv_mapRotation gametype <gametype> map <mapname> gametype <gametype> map <mapname> ... <gametype> is one of: "dm" - free for all deathmatch "dom" - domination "koth" - headquarters "sab" - sabotage "sd" - search & destroy "war" - team deathmatch ] sv_hostname "my server" ] g_gametype <gametype> ] sv_maxclients [1-32] ] g_password "my password" ] sv_voice [0-1] ] scr_teambalance [0-1] ] g_allowvote [0-1] ] sv_punkbuster [0-1] ] sv_minping [0-n] (milliseconds) ] sv_maxping [0-n] (milliseconds) ] sv_connectTimeout [0-n] (seconds) ] sv_timeout [0-n] (seconds) gameplay options ---------------- ] scr_oldschool [0-1] ] scr_hardcore [0-1] ] scr_game_spectatetype [0-2] (Disabled, Team/Players Only, Free) ] scr_game_allowkillcam [0-1] ] scr_team_fftype [0-3] (Disabled, Enabled, Reflect, Shared) ] scr_game_perks [0-1] ] scr_game_onlyheadshots [0-1] ] scr_game_forceuav [0-1] ] scr_game_hardpoints [0-1] (i.e. artillery, uav, helicopter) ] scr_hardpoint_allowartillery [0-1] ] scr_hardpoint_allowuav [0-1] ] scr_hardpoint_allowhelicopter [0-1] free for all deatmatch ----------------------- ] scr_dm_scorelimit [0-n] ] scr_dm_timelimit [0-n] (minutes) domination ----------- ] scr_dom_scorelimit [0-n] ] scr_dom_timelimit [0-n] (minutes) team deathmatch ----------------- ] scr_war_scorelimit [0-n] ] scr_war_timelimit [0-n] (minutes) sabotage --------- ] scr_sab_scorelimit [1-n] (points) ] scr_sab_timelimit [0-n] (minutes) ] scr_sab_roundswitch [0-n] (after how many rounds) ] scr_sab_bombtimer [0-n] (seconds) ] scr_sab_planttime [0-n] (seconds) ] scr_sab_defusetime [0-n] (seconds) ] scr_sab_hotpotato [0-1] (shared bomb timer) search and destroy ------------------- ] scr_sd_scorelimit [1-n] (points) ] scr_sd_timelimit [0-n] (minutes) ] scr_sd_roundswitch [0-n] (number of rounds before switching teams) ] scr_sd_bombtimer [0-n] (seconds) ] scr_sd_planttime [0-n] (seconds) ] scr_sd_defusetime [0-n] (seconds) ] scr_sd_multibomb [0-1] headquarters ------------- ] scr_koth_scorelimit [1-n] (points) ] scr_koth_timelimit [0-n] (minutes) ] koth_autodestroytime [0-n] (seconds) ] koth_kothmode [0-1] (classic mode, non-classic) ] koth_spawntime [0-n] (seconds, hq spawn time)
operation "get this early" at best buy was unsuccessful... apparently no one knows when the shipment gets in. "my foot in their ass" shipment almost made it though
Best Buy usually has the game at least a week before the Game goes public...they were lying to you. I know cause I used to work there...
