CoD W@W. Do I need to save my profile before a format?

GLD · Nov 21, 2008, 02:38 AM

I just got a bigger HDD and so need to format. I know in CoD 4 I need to save my players folder. I don't see anything like that in W@W. Is it all saved online, like BF2 etc? What do I do?

If it's like CoD4 it will be in the install dir, save the players folder, it will have your save games, settings, profile, mp ranks, etc.

There is no players folder in W@W.

Look in Activision folder. Because that is where mine was.

perhaps in C:\Users\###\AppData\Local\Activiton\CoD W@W\
or something along those lines

I know the game has only been out for 10 days, but can someone who owns W@W answer this.

Has anyone else had to format since W@W?

it's in your "C:\Documents and Settings\(your profile)\Local Settings\Application Data\Activision\CoDWaW\players\"
copy the whole folder to be on the safe side this is for XP
for vista just search the "CoDWaw" folder inside your system drive
