So how many of you guys use shadows? I find shadows kills performance by around 15fps or so on my PC. I just don't think they make much of a difference and it doesn't even look that good with shadows cast everywhere. Do people that use them see any benefit gameplay wise? And does it slow down other people's games as much as mine?

Re: Shadows: On or Off?
It doesn't give you such an advantage that you would get in BF games, so not worth it imo. People that play in leagues and such might disagree though, I don't know
My system plays CoD4 at all highest settings with around 70-80 FPS so I don't really need more FPS imo. As long as it's over 60 I'm fine with it.

Re: Shadows: On or Off?
I play with it on with my new system. Old system it was off. I tend to pay attention to those details, so I notice a difference, but I think if it affects your FPS much, you should turn it off.
Now, as for it on, I have seen shadows where enemies where hiding around corners or above me and if it wasnt for that, I would have not known they were even there. I dont know if you still see those shadows with it off, I dont think you do.
So FPS first, fancipants second

Originally posted by .:S:. TSlaw View PostYa, I have had many many times where I nailed a guy because I saw a shadow shift. So I keep them on. I'll take the 5 FPS it loses on my system.
