Set Depth of Field option to low without significant visual impact. Additionally you can turn off Ambient Occlusion and FXAA which affect the speed when aiming down sights. |
Mouse Lag

Issue with changing Language
Fixing Localization Problem[citation needed] |
---|
"Error during Intialization: ERROR: sound Bank failed to load cmn_root.Englisch. You have a Build Problem." Solution : Set the language of all three game parts (singleplayer, multiplayer and zombies) to your desired language and wait for Steam to finish downloading. |
Zombies Leaderboard and Campaign Career Record crash
- Crash during campaign whenever Career Record is displayed, or in Zombies whenever Leaderboard is displayed. Caused because of bug displaying more than 60 and less than 100 Steam friends.
Change number of friends[7] |
---|
Delete friends list until total is under 60, or add more friends until total is over 100. |
Steam Offline mode or Firewall block[8] |
---|
Set Steam in Offline Mode. You may not unlock achievements. You can block "t6sp.exe" for the campaign and/or "t6zm" in your Firewall by creating a blocking rule for incoming and outgoing traffic. Achievements works, but you won't be able to play online or retrieve leaderboards. |
