3am in the morning drinking coffee again
Back for another day of waiting until it's Monday.
#TEA-4-LIFE đ”
tea is nice
whats ur fav tea
Any decaf I can get my hands on
I just had mead in a Viking bar, does that count as tea?
âViking Teaâ lol
"Northern Tea"
TIL single malt whiskey is just spring water and âwortâ from barley
I prefer rum but it was cool to learn
Rum is waste product from sugar production :p
But yeah I tend to lean more towards rum too
Lol TIL this too. If an apocalypse ever happens, I know what to do đ
EA has big plans for the future of Battlefield, but I have some ideas of my own

Almost forgot it! I'm waiting for some news on Riders Republic and the Division Heartland. Avatar too but I doubt that will be there.
We haven't heard from XDefiant from a while
Some of the stuff they showed was rough. Maybe they'll revamp them by then
Ubisoft plays it safe, I know they can be creative. Just look at Riders Republic
I swear every damn new Ubi game is just awful
For some stupid reason I actually bought R6E and never have I ever been filled with such regret lol
I was excited for r6e when it was first announced as quarantine. I expected some sort of story oriented game with cutscenes and such.
That didnt happen
Yeah kinda like this game company called Embark Studios, they made this game called "The Finals" but it was totally just a Fortnite clone
Omg yeah I completely forgot about that
Its a bad joke
I shall refrain from making such failures of text in the future lol
I should of talked about it here
most likely
this fits more offtopicx
Darunoux that's good that your using Brave its your choice! I use Chrome because I have an android and use a lot of google's services

I would of got a 1TB SSD if I waited patiently
only problem is money, timing, & situations
I played games casually now because of life
I'm slowly running out of time to play but I still like playing games
I have an external 1tb hdd so I can get by
Yes also games nowadays are all live service with battle passes and fomo elements
I play more and more singleplayer games nowadays
Mass effect andromeda currently
I deleted 2042 after being disappointed by season 2, just waiting for the finals tbh
Good morning Shelled Crusaders
Good afternooooooon
Oh no⊠the planet?
thats a shame i think itâs actually super fun
It's decent enough but it's missing something and I can't put my thumb on it
Destruction probably. The only asset in the new map are shipping containers which are not destructible.
That's a good point.
I was a HUGE fan of Bad Company 2 so that's the benchmark I'm always comparing to
I think 2042's destruction is capable. You can just run over all the buildings in Arica Harbor in 2042 with a tank. The type of buildings and assets they decide to place on maps really makes a difference.
this really. 2042âs destruction isnt any worse its just theres less of it, and not because of laziness but because it doesnât make sense in a lot of places. bf4âs city maps had the same destruction as 2042âs city maps. itâll never be the same as bf1&5 because those took place in mostly rural maps. so comparing to them is kinda an impossible standard
2042 is one of the worst battlefield games
eh
2042âs main issue is one that i honestly dont feel right criticizing it for. the issue is that while technically the game has tons of content, even more than most battlefields had at this point in their lifespan, its divided up between AOW and portal, and so it doesnât feel like it has that much content.
i dont think many people actually realize how much content there technically is
15 maps where at least 8 are 2-3x the size of normal bf maps, 80+ guns, tons of gadgets and vehicles for each of the 4 eras, infinite game modes, etc.
that said, that doesnât make it the best battlefield or anything.
currently its my opinion that the specialists donât really change much about the core battlefield experience. i think its pretty crazy how many people say specialists make it not a battlefield game and refuse to play it because of that simple fact.
that said, i do understand where they are coming from. i just think they either have some serious rose tinted glasses on, or they donât know much about it and are just kinda programmed to not like them
Also might have to do with it costing ÂŁ60 on release
specialists absolutely change the entire dynamic of the game. I cant wait for them to revert closer to normal in s3
hard disagree. iâve never understood the claims about specialists messing up gameplay. the inly noticeable change to gameplay is unrestricted weapons and gadgets which battlefield desperately needed imo. locking weapons behind classes was always kinda stupid and pointless. gadgets i can understand, but also classes didnât have âdefaultâ gadgets that that class was forced to use. i always hear people say that specialists make people ânot play their rolesâ but this isnât true because the specialists do have gadgets locked to them which forces that kind of teamplay. falck players are locked to playing as a healer, (as well as something else of their choice). i also see people say specialists allow for people to do everything at once and only play for themselves. this also isnât true because again, you can only play two types of gadgets at once. the most âdo it allâ loadout i can think of would be falck with an rpg and a sniper, but then where are you getting your ammo from? you cant do everything. it still forces teamplay. also, more gadgets and more options makes for more diverse and creative and complimentary playstyles. my only personal gripe with them is how cringe they are but it seems they are fixing that.
thanks for coming to my ted talk :))
Top of the morning
Lars Gustavsson recently left DICE. Wondering if caffeinated eggnog is in his future diet.
Embark is made up from a group of people who left DICE
I mean they are both in Stockholm, they might be eating lunch together for all we know
DICE is on Södermalm. Too far for a regular lunch without stressing.
from my understanding there is nobody to eat lunch with anyway
I second Partikel, as someone working in the same building as Dice, I would not want to have lunch with someone working at KungstrÀdgÄrden
It's doable, but you'd have to get on the subway, and just overall stress a bit too much.
Top o' the mornin' gang
Another day closer to those sweet, sweet golden coins
Damn straight

This is the fourth time we've had Goob play an Austrian/German for a video. It wasn't even intentional this time around we just found out after he took the role, that Schrodinger was Austrian. Schrodinger's cat must have really him, huh? To just put him in the box like that. ...
@winged summit I did the hello world on rust once
so basically Im expert?
no, have not played the game

Nope.. you'd have to attack the whole campus
My internet is only as good as it is because I'm on a university connection LMAO
but I'm not gonna tempt fate
Whats your lads highest message count in a dm?
My ISP just trains a squirrel to tap on some copper wires really fast.
The latency is nuts
HAHAHA

Bruh what
When I was in a LDR with someone I still only sent them like maybe 50k messages over here course of 2 years
Guess it probably would've been much more than that if we weren't both constantly playing on a RP server together but-
Thats more than twice as much as I had trying to flirt with a girl for years on end..
62k over the whole conversation in the last 4 years or so
Well LDR is too charitable it was abusive but that's besides the point how do you have so many messages lol
I have my ways..
Only been messaging them since early 2020 and in 2021 for like 6 months we stopped
wow.. love of your life
If you are an xfinity user you might have a mw2 beta early access code in your rewards. I just got one.
same
đ
MWII, brand new super duper advanced and enhanced with fish AI. and apparently you can swim now.
Of course, I was living in a cave before cod came out
xD
Can't believe COD has a second wind while BF dies out..
honestly.. the fact that people make MW2 beta out to be bigger than actual game releases is ridiculous
I'm honestly looking forward to whatever multiplayer fps Guerilla games is making
and I wanna talk shit about it but they actually do their job >.>
Decima engine is so good
any info on that? New Killzone?
We don't know but it is rumored to have been in development for a while
I'd say it will be revealed in the near future
I thought they were primarily working on the Hoirzon zero dawn VR game
The main studio working on that is Firesprite, Guerilla is just helping them out
Horizon 3 is probably in pre production and they have a seperate team for the fps
I don't really give attention to Activision

we can make a list about scummy publishers all day long and activision is on it
I don't play warzone at all.. its idiotic how big the gamefile is for what you actually play
Where do you check this
Google xfinity awards and log in
I found cod engine boring, so static. Nothing ever reacts to player input.
Well idk about that
I just donât understand the beta being hyped up for a game from a publisher that made an IP a fucking annual release..
I remember knowing that if I wanted a good cod game I would wait for treyarch to release a cod game
And infinity ward for a very short period
Did you know that World at War is still being sold as if its the full game, but the online part of the game is completely shut down because there werenât enough product keys anymore
Yeah they have the audacity to sell 10+ old games at full price
Well.. not full price, but too much for the campaign alone
YeahâŠ
This is why my switch has been catching dust for the last year
I feel bad for my villagers but cannot be arsed to touch it
I haven't seen you in 9 months!
Scary that they even keep track of that
No.. animal crossing
Ketchup always starts booby trapping my island when Iâm gone for too long

Yessss
One time I had a villager I didnât like so I surrounded his house in dirt
I thing it was ken
Lol
The barbed wiring to be clear
Bro u guys are evil
And when he escaped I hit him with a bug net
Have u tried Zelda
I like Zelda
Have you played god of war
Ayy that's the best one haha
I canât play PlayStation exclusives because I have an Xbox
Ya I don't like exclusives anymore because I really wanna play uncharted games and ghosts of tsushima
But I don't have ps
Anymore
But I canât play on PlayStation because I hate the controller
Can't u pair up a kbm
Ahh
Lot of controversy with that controller eh
I personally loved all ps controllers
Level sticks are just uncomfortable
And Iâm used to Xbox
Ikr
Yeah
Oh the wifi router
I like the mini fridge
They actually made a fridge too
I think they add nicely to my house design
A mini fridge in my room
A router at the living room
Jesus..
The KFC console
Cool box
I think the series s looks pretty good
It has glass
Well my pc is in it
Or plastic
Cool
15 liters
My pc is a laptop
You misunderstand.. it has a glass sidepanel regardless of the version
Ok
Yeah
Pc simply means personal computer
Well if its a good laptop it will also play games while doing so
Anyway Iâm off to bed
I had to use an ice pack to play blood hunt and it still crashed
Can I keep the crown in my bed for the night?
Who here likes eggs
Best food
Not on burger
Cuz no burger
No burger
Toast yes
Burger no
NO BURGER!
Burger
Yes egg
I love eggs on a burger
Yes burger
Damn straight
Really
Cuz I havenât had it before
No burger
Is egg meat?
That is the question
But chicken
Chicken=meat
Egg=chicken

Oh cool! A Martian!

It does when it becomes ice
Raccoons are just trash pandas so we've come full circle lol
They didnât used to be
Both are good
Red pandaâs are cute but raccoonâs are easier to own
Red Pandas are very cute and Raccoons have chubby goblin charm
Squirrel cat

All the coins reminded me of blood money from bf hardline. Reckon we'll get something similar.
There was one almost fully populated server on ps4 running downtown 24/7
RIP Visceral Games
yes
There are more fps games on pc maybe that's why
yeah ps4 has the best playerbase for bfh
ps3 too (had)

I've modded Mass Effect Andromeda, it is cool but definitely not something I would bother with every game
weight effect
It came out in 2017. I would say it's still impressive graphically
No, it's Mass Effect
Haha love it
be like Greg
Has there been any news about a release day or even a day to test?
Wow
Is that how your day has been?
Oh yikers
You really are having the greatest time with your pc huh?
Haha
Good Greg
Its less of an upgrade and more of a sidegrade
I used windows 7 before 11. 11 has weird bugs like night light not working at its scheduled time
also it feels like they slapped a simple ui on top of windows' old complex ui
I've been on 11 for several months now. No complaints here. Running the latest dev versions at all time
My only problem with W11 was that lusrmgr.msc didn't work before the summer, which made it annoying at work when I tried to add local accounts to laptops... Other than that it's been smooth 
That's quite literally what they did
Same minor complaints
Like this one. They got rid of those bars that show you how much space is left
For absolutely no reason
If anyone knows how to restore them pls tell me
Also you can't drag & drop things into the taskbar
change to content view
tiles also works
np
But overall, it's good ig
i don't think there are much reasons to upgrade other than the UI
Go to tile view
Oh, didnt scroll far enough to see that you already went to tiles haha
Ty
It's just that I've never changed the view settings since like windows xp
So i straight up blamed it on Microsoft lmao
It's easier that way
Its always microsofts fault
they're both hella smol
Smoll ssd
500gb seems alr
500gb nvme + 1tb hdd for games is the best combo
No HDD mechanical hard drives
Yes
Ssds are faster
hdds are better for storage
But this one ain't that slow
I usually install those games that take time to load on the nvme
you also kill an ssd faster when you use it for storage 
you can do whatever you want, it's just best practices anyway
You can get like 4tb of storage for 70âŹ
You can install all of ur games and still have space left
Yeah basically anything that takes time to load should be on the ssd
Like windows

I have 30.. but that doesn't really help you xD
I wish they were still around tbh
jokes on you, I bet some of your data is on glacier
resting somewhere in the bottom of the ocean
then you make a get request and someone goes there with a submarine to crank the cassettes
lol
I actually google'd it and: "long-term storage of data that is infrequently accessed and for which retrieval latency times of 3 to 5 hours are acceptable. "
so does that mean the submarine trip takes that long?
yeah đ
i still own many casette tapes tho
something about choosing ur favorite memory written in a sharpie and loading it into a handcam or smth
rewinding it fully cuz uve already watched it
Hope you'll enjoy it! And make sure to move the taskbar to th left, the center position is the worst change so far đ (If you'd end up not liking it, sorry! đ )
hating the center đ€
Meh⊠thats less than half of my smallest nvme
@trim wind continuing the other channels thing here.. word might be bad but if you think about it more, you will most likely have some of the same feelings, I mean, f2p will have loot box money model in our realm and cheating seem to be bigger issue in f2p games, if it would cost even 10 "buckies" then the full-on-freenium-cheater tier would not exists but wdik :p
ofc we could have "csgo-premium" thingy.. (actually now saying it out loud, I hope so)
meh most people don't need that kind of storage
I had 500gb for borrowed stuff before but then realized watching online is easier
Fair does
I prefer it downloaded cause of the quality and a lot of it comes with behind the scenes stuff which is always cool
Thank you, it pleases me 
Good Morning, Humpty Dumpers 
When we've been installing Win 11 I always ask if they want the taskbar to be centered on the left or center. Only had 2 people specifically request the left center.
"this is how it was done in the 60's!" <- vibes?
Donât give them a choice, force the supreme left-positioned on them đ
I have a spare MW2 beta code for PS4. I'll just drop it here in case anyone wants to use it.
Sadly I dont have a PS4
I practically gave my ps4 away a few years back
I'll save mine as a relic. It's the best looking console imo.
It's the OG one though.
haha the one that might take off any second now
You just had to get used to it XD
I think my PS4 still has p.t installed
There's a PC remake of it
I got my MW2 pre order on steam.

Hello Partikel đ
Autumn seems to be close. Chilly today
Better get Eggward a cozy sweater then
Do eggs get cold?
They need to get warm to hatch, so...!... maybe? đ€·
It is rather beautiful outside today though
Very!

quite so! really missed this kind of sweater weather (until it hits noon and I get hard-boiled
)
I love the autumn .. on a sunny day when all the leaves drop and you get that nuke of fresh air
I am making not one eg.. not two eggs but...
Three eggs! yes I can count to three VICTORRYYYYY
I wonât share the gore
Positive vampires are the best vampires
vampire skin for
when
I have no clue what my blood type is, and I used to leave blood samples reguarly when i was young
They donât really tell you for medical samples
So do I get to know if I give blood?
Yes
I would think so? I had a medical card thing since I was a baby that I had all that information
Might even get a keychain haha
includes blood type and all
Then I need to get to that at some point, as I have been curious to know my bloodtype for quite some time, but not wanting to contact healthcare just to know it
Its different per country I assume
Yeah, Sweden doesn't give you a card, as everything is stored in your medical journal for you
But yeah at the bloodbank they will tell you
My card is almost worn down
After almost 80 times..
ok now I'm tired
God I cannot stand the sight of blood
My brother is a nurse and I get dizzy from just the minor stuff he tells me about

I'm a teacher and I don't mind any of it ^^"
I taught nurses last year so I literally went through all those medical books
Imagine a nurse being scared of blood. It's like a CIA agent with Acrophobia.
there is some very juicy stuff they learn to do that I wouldn't ever want to do
blood is the least of their problems đ
Honestly the hardest part about being a nurse is still the social stuff
at the bloodbank there was this offbrand santa right
he had given bloodplasma before but he also had to get checked by the GP there (you normally get checked by a nurse testing your blood values)
and he was there for only a very short period afrter I got plugged in and it seemed that he was completely.. deranged
it took 4 nurses to get him to leave.. he did donate something but I doubt it was enough

I don't know what I should set my PFP to be here
set your name to something related to eggs and everyone will love you
we all worship eggward
I am unlovable
Speaking of that here's my eggshow of why eggs are better than people.
They crack easier.
uhhhh
Take that as you will
you just made a torture egg pun
do i take it as an act against the egg society or a joke?
I'm out of the carton. I'm boiled. Uh, I have no more egg puns.
you're stepping on eggshells with those puns
My puns are eggs-tra special. Some people say they aren't all they were cracked up to be, omlettin' it slide this time. But next time I'm going to let them have it since they're just shell-outs.
those puns are truly outr-egg-eous

Is my name enough "related to eggs"?

I can't read it so I guess?
How closely related are you to eggs?
I was an egg, before I were conceived đ€
waiting to see what DMZ is like
You egg
I need more COFFEEEEEEEEEEE

good good

Morning, Hatchlings đŁ
Same, hope itll be good
I feel like Discord making it so everyones join date is visible is kinda weird

Did they say if DMZ will be f2p?
Yeah it will be F2P
it's being released with Warzone 2
Cool, I can at least give it a try
Top of the morning to you!
The destruction on the cars toođ„




Top of the morning
'morning! 
The funny thing is I haven't seen anyone confused over CoD's future.
I'm concerned about Battlefields. They've had 2 duds in a row
They will eventually make a decent game, it's a business after all. They can't keep dumping money into projects that will fail.
They should've. After spending fair amount of time in beta I can't believe that the people will review this game positively. It feels like a semi-major update to MW19.
Depends on what people thought of MW19, sometimes more of the same isn't necessarily a bad thing.
I'm not a COD player but thoroughly enjoyed that one
Does EA make any new games anymore
They keep pumping their sports games and battlefield
And that's all I hear about
There's Apex, and some indies also, but nothing groundbreaking
(Edit) Oh yeah and all the BioWare stuff + Star Wars Jedi Survivor
My understanding of it is that companies tends to reach a point where the need for profits leads to a certain cautiousness in innovation. It is no more up to them to push entirely new stuff out of the window, and that's where indies and new companies come around. It is a cycle at the end of the day
After anthem, theyâre probably comfortable just sticking to what they know..
Good Morning Hard-boiled Heathens
anthem could've been so good if they diddnt drop the ball so hard đ
Instead of Anthem they could have made a looter shooter in Mass Effect universe, would have been pretty cool
I think ARC Raiders may be the most interesting looter shooter yet
You fight big machines with weak points and can tear off individual components, crippling them. That's just like the machine fights in Horizon.
And Horizon is my favorite game so, looking forward to ARC Raiders in 2023.
ARC Raiders a looter shooter?
did I miss a memo somewhere?
I haven't seen any indication of that in any of the content
đlooter shooter?
really?
We are hungry for easter eggs yummm

Q4 2023
accepting everyone atm
đI'll try it out later but honestly.. Looks like a poor vermintide
this is not good
xD at least the Barbarian isn't\
đso avoid it?
Played last night for a few hours. Didn't survive even once haha but really fun nonetheless
Very unforgiving
especially if you go in solo
Also the devs seem to have a good vision for the game
đ€
ok I def gave up on it
I needed 7 arrows to take out a single skeleton..
and the game feels like quake 2 level design haha
Online-only PvPvE means it's either a battle royale or tarkov style extraction gameplay? Which is it then?
A little of both
Interesting, not sure I'll play but it piqued my curiosity
There is a circle that closes in over time but there are extractions that appear randomly throughout the match that allow you to leave at any time once you find them
Wow that sounds definitely like both at the same time
It's definitely one of those games that is not for everyone lol and it needs a lot of work
The only thing I liked was the lil tavern
i want Hunt to have a lobby like that
Its very unstable and I cannot imagine this is how the levels will look in the end
Sounds... Painful to play
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2075730/Call_of_Duty_Modern_Warfare_II__Open_Beta/ Incase anyone doesn't know the beta for steam is now available, have fun :)
Pre-order Call of DutyÂź: Modern WarfareÂź II and get Open Beta Early Access beginning Sept. 22nd*.
9084
is that similar for what the mw br is with the control feel?
I mean the originals had pretty good feel in control
and cod br games feel like "star hash etc curses" :p
I really cannot get into cod
I keep trying it
I loved mw2 from 2009 but its just not that game anymore QQ
Iâm sure the story will be hello dope though
Never played a game thats hello dope before
mw2 feelsl ike mw with different maps and slightly different feel to it
and a different ui
it feels good but idk if id ever wanna pay again for a game that doesnt bring anything 'new' to the franchise except of new maps
I refuse to give.activision/blizzard money. They are on the blacklist for me. đ
I couldn't play it for more than a few hours. I enjoyed vanguard more.
Modern warfare is trying to be an arena shooter and tactical shooter at the same time and fails at both.
Isn't that what every CoD game aims for. arena and tactical?
or at least pretends to be both
MW missed that balance
sounds like veteran devs are making their own studios to save gaming.
i think cod has always tried to be, and is an 'arena shooter'
idk what they mean by tactical but if im comparing it to like insurgency, squad or even tarkov, then this is the least 'tactical' experience you can find
tho i guess in design it is slightly tactical, you have different abilities that act like classes like support, recon, assault (idk about medic) and you have some gamemodes like SND and VIP escort where you gotta make more decisions than just point and shoot
its what the world needs. otherwise the way we're going, call of duty is gonna have us paying $5 everytime we need to reload
only to have someone spend 24hrs on how to make a slide cancel work in game LMAO
hahaha ikr
on the opposite spectrum we have games like Rust
if you bought the game in 2013, you can still play with it updating every month or sometimes week
thats 9 less games for a franchise
"you never know how good you've had it until its gone"đ
frr
but thats why i have faith that these two IPs embark is dropping is gonna rock the industry
completely understandable!
too many dissapointing games recently so yeah nothing towards embark but the game can still flop hard or succeed really hard or somewhere in the middle
idc about general opinion rn i just wanna play a good unique game đ
i feel that! i really dig the concept and praying that i get that golden ticket to play test XD
oh im sure we all will get into pt
yeah true
unfortunately a lot of people still enjoy them despite the unoriginality
so the demand is high
yeah for sure lol, im also a part of that sometimes
but some indie games are bangers i swear
tribes of midgard, valheim, unrailed
well depends how the new mechanics are done
new mechanics - they're too weird and complex for me to follow through but these indie games do it simple and effective and they also have a clear focus and dont add random marketing bs
im enjoying mw2 open beta but i feel like when i play the beta, ive played the whole game đ
oh yeah fs
@trim wind Barbarian is the hardest/worst class atm, I figured that out early too, its the first I tried, you have to have 2 other teammates with buffs and heals and its kind of hard to do that during fights, Fighter in general is just a better all around class and meta atm
So useless if you dont play together đ
Still unstable af and if this is the final level design.. that will stop people very quickly. HUNT IS WAY MORE FLESHED OUT
Too bad we now consider COD to be an arena shooter. The classic arena shooters like Quake and Half Life are pretty much dead nowadays. They don't make games like em nowadays.
I can only hope true arena shooters will make a comeback someday
isnt unreal tour still a thing?
i miss jumping around and shooting guns
but i think cod is a nice sweet spot for me i like to come back to it for like 2h and then uninstall it
only problem is they never have a good discount loll
i aint paying $70 for shit
There was a reboot of some sort but Epic abandoned it after Fortnite blew up.
ripp
That's about how much I played the beta
hahha
its all fun until the meta sets in
some of the most fun i had was always in the open betas
cold war, had a blast and a half
ww2, not the worst (is the worst)
mw open beta, amazing 20fps
even bf5 open beta was probs the most fun i had in a bf beta (bf5 launch was also a blast for me tho)
mw2 beta nice too nothing new
im only playing mw2 beta cuz its just mw2019 except 20gb
so in a way its nice
Yeah open betas are always worth it
For comparison I played 2042 beta for 20 hours even though it was a mess.
I had seen all I needed to in mw2 in about an hour
oh damn
2042 beta was pretty fire for what it was as a standalone title
DICE were clever to pick Orbital, that was the best launch map imo
I deleted the game for now, probably will give it another go once classes come back
Yeah, even though it is reworked, it's still pretty bad
yehh
i dont understand one thing
im not a game developer, ive tried for 2y but nothing special but like hear me out
how can you possibly make the movement and the feel of the game 100x WORSE than ur previous title
when you're building a franchise isnt the first thing supposed to be liek
ok how do i make sure i can use this in another game in this franchise?
the animations, the gunplay, the movement it all feels 100x shittier its not responsive and its less interactive and less fluid idk its so snappy it feels unrealisitc asf
It feels as though every Call of Duty uses a substantial part of code/assets from previous titles
mw19 to vanguard for example
Battlefield on the other hand seems to be starting from scratch everytime since battlefield 1
battlefield 1, bf4 and 2042 are quite different
yeah
mayeb to make it feel like a different game?
if so then they have achieved that
for the beter or worse
probably
although it becomes a little weird tryna play bf4 again
i love it but it feels like i gota readapt to it everytime i get on it
the movement is limited the suppression, etc
I would say it's still the best and latest modern shooter out there
Although I'm not really willing to go back, not anytime soon anyways
I'm taking a break from regularly playing fps games, out of necessity really
you forgot hardline :_)
I wouldn't :), it's just more inline with bf3 and bf4 and the last bf to release on ps3/xbox360
Not bored, more like frustrated and burnt out
I'm looking forward to the WW3 open beta and The Finals of course
In the long run the next Battlefield
that studio has some balls to spend 6 months in silence and then randomly come out with the beta announcement
i wouldnt recommend spending money on that game
their future is not certain
I've heard so
ohh also there is OW2, no one seems to care about it though
it's on october 4th I think
i forgor about that đ
lotta games gonna come out in oct to dec 
True, hard to keep track of them all. But I rarely buy games at launch so I don't really care for the time being đ

I only ever pre ordered Horizon Forbidden West and bf 2042
I've played it for about 250 hours so whatever I guess
definitely not pre ordering the next one though
I was just excited that we were supposedly getting a bf4 sequel
i mean we did 
Just say 2042 was a spinoff where PAC has a bad dream and move on
it had a worse launch than bf4, so it is a sequel in a way
only probnlem is
by this time for bf4, they already had 16 new maps and 20 new weapons as DLC's
albeit paid
we all shoulda listened to hannah đŠ
Yeah I preferred DLCs
yuhh but those had too many drawbacks
i think if they gave the DLC's for early paid access that'd be cool asf
and then after like 2 months its free?
Barely remember her đ
hahahahha
rippp
i only remember her cuz i gave her the bomb
DICE made most dlc's free after sometime but I think most people just didn't redeem it
yeah
I got bf1 premium for free
bf1 especially
yeah
bf1 also did this cool premium rotation feature
where free users can play premium maps for free while they were in rotation
bf1 was just cool ugh
I genuinely don't think we'll ever get a game like that. All the stars in the milky way would need to align.
hahaha
I don't remember who I picked because it's been quite long. I only played the campaign because psn servers were down at the time lol.
apparently the studio was still having issues in bf1 stage but they managed to pull it off pretty well
id personally say bf5 was also pretty well done at the very end, i personally enjoyed most base maps and dlc's alike
hahahha lessgo
u played bf4 on ps3?
that shit was a differnet experience...
no on ps4
ohhh
on the ps3 the game was so slow
afair it was like 24p matches
the only map i played for 2 full years was paracel storm and golmud railway and then i realised we have cooler maps like lancan- i mean anything but that
big slow boi
I know right but most people wouldn't have minded it at the time because that's what everyone was used to.
but rip ps3 servers đŠ
and we didnt have brutal expectations back then

talking of battlefield development, there was a 4 hour documentary by Nick930. It was pretty cool, he got into detail about how each title was conceived.

oh damn, im def gonna listen to that that sounds interesting
i love watching that typa stuff in the background while i play my fav game
bf2/bf04/bfbc2

ahh
hehe yeah
imagine uninspiring (mostly) bf maps with a bad gimmick failure of mw movement
and a banger trailer 
hahaha
ima
i wont laugh
its totally possible đł
oooo imagine the cinematic feeling
đŹ
They killed off EVERYTHING for Fortnite.. including Paragon QQ
Was..
Its 7 game iterations are nothing like the OG game
I got Fault but I cannot get into it
worth it for them
fortnite made them billionaires
I'm pretty sure they already were hahaha
fortnite got bad cause they tried to make lore when it was a game that didn't need it
And now they've changed the map too many times
The gameplay also got worse, last time i played not a single gun i remember was there, you could sprint slide vault, the list goes on
Yeah sounds like fortnite
Good Morning Eager Egg Enjoyers
Afternoon
Evening
Evening as well đ
home
I might give BF2042 a new try soon
Oh wait I donât have EA play anymore
Fffff
Soon though
I'm playing a bit of Reality Mod here and there, it's shaping up to be a solid milsim experience, all the foundations layed by BF3 really works with that type of game
I can imagine
For me BF1 was peak BF
It was slick, minimalist and so athmospheric
And BFH of course
How finally people respecting BFH đ„Č I'm just so sad it got received so poorly
BF1 is just awesome, despite being more focused on linear game modes and too much of a meatgrinder at times
BFH was ahead of its time
If it released along with fortnite it would have been in the top 10 games concurrently
Good morning, Eggwardians
đmorning
Yes good morning (currently 11:57pm in Australia)
I always hated how badly bfh was hated but I understand why. It was worse than its predecessors. I loved bfh I probs had like ~400 hrs on it on PS3 hahaha that game be goated for me
Yeah bfh was awesome actually
I liked BFH too
It was so broken sometimes
I remember unlocking some specific ammo for the big sniper I think m95
It one shot every vehicle
For the PS3 it wasn't patched so it was so fun in maps like riptide and dust bowl
Omg riptide :( damn nostalgic already I loved that map
@lament musk did you also mean hardline? ;')
Pls tell me u did
because you're all wrong
Heroes â€ïž
I'm sad no one even remembers bfhardline
hardline was fine too tho
i remember hardline
:D
but it was just not a game I enjoyed
I was about to play rising hub the other day but NA servers are pretty much dead
I need to wake up early and play in eu servers
rising hub is bf heroes btw
good.
....
2042 is the best game ever made
...
actually ur right... The Finals is better
honestly, I can't comment cause I've never played the final 2042 product lol
^
fr, true words
There are still awesome games out there, you just need to pick them carefully
I don't think 2042 was bad.. just didn't feel like a step forward compared to BF4 on launch..
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnndddddddddddddd
as much as I think this is not the most popular opinion.. but without a campaign of some sort.. its just too steep
Cod makes campaigns again though.. I don't recall which one they abandoned SP on but I think all is good with the world again..
Heroes of course!
COD is just paced wrong for me
Woff Woff?
oh right, i have a dog as picture, makes more sense now xD
I really do
I meant Hardline as well đ but BF Heroes was cool too! Just a little too "floaty" for me in it's mechanics (and no I won't explain further what I mean by floaty haha)
I'd happily go back to every BF (yup even Play4Free) only thanks to the nostalgia
p4free was my first battlefield. I actually wanted to play battlefield 3 but I didn't have a good computer at the time đ„Č
i only played bf heroes for a few days so i dont remember haha
all i remember was that i was jumping alot lmao
i agree
i also think the whole specialist thing is a majorly overblown issue
i've never seen an argument that makes sense that shows how they make the actual gameplay worse
the only ones that have some validity are along the lines of "simply not what battlefield is" "they are cringe" which even then don't hold much ground, and the latter is actively being fixed
but its crazy to me the number of people who refuse to give it a chance at all due to that single reason, despite playing games like apex and cod who have the same system
They are pretty cringe for a game like battlefield
The Modern Warfare 2 Beta is the first Call of Duty Beta where I haven't hit max rank and wanted to play.
Not sure if it's age, being too busy, or if the game just isn't appealing to me.
I really enjoyed the first 24 hours but then my desire to play just disappeared.
2779
101
I'd say 24 hours is pretty long
This is a very accurate tweet lol
I have something like this for evaluating the game "hooky"
5min, "menus & ui sucked hard, no thanks"
1-2hour, "it was fun at the beginning but 0 "hooky" so I most likely wont return to it"
5-20h, "played it through, now it can be layed to its grave"
100-200h, "potentially a replay value and I had fun in solo too"
500~h, this is the point where things get interesting, it either has great guys to play with and we get loads of fun out of it possibly too playing solo
+1000h-, previous but has been proved to have those values described
+10000h, Im just mad..
this is one of my irl friends:
on a single account
I got 4
which game
MW
nope, steam game in q
oh hooky
original mw:s where not in steam, if I remember correctly
yeah
well, at the beginning
second seems to be? or at least I got it in library
lovely how steam says "you can't play with arm64"
đ
well time to go to sleep, cu
hooky, hookish, you name it (addiction is considered sickness? :D)
Do you think different ammo/magazine types for weapons is a good thing in fps games? Modern Warfare and Battlefield have implemented it in the recent year, and I think it's not a good thing.
Having different caliber rounds, extended mags is probably realistic and fun to play around with. However it blurs the lines between different weapon types like smg, ar and lmg. Also it makes balancing even harder, because every gun can become vastly different just by changing the magazine type.
I would say that depends on how realistic you want to go?
okay so guns that use "light ammo" are 15 damage a hit. "medium ammo" is 20 a hit
things like that is the normal route but sometimes they do it just for realism.
so each GUN specifically has different numbers. Which is fine.
i think as long as the different ammo types don't hinder gameplay it doesn't matter
But a gun can have light, medium and high power ammo, all at the same time.
đȘ then fuck logic pew pew bitch
because to be real
yeah you can put SMALLER ammunition in real guns and still fire it.
you canT put BIGGER ammunition in.
Games sometimes just say fuck it and at that point whatever lol
I think it matters how they implement it. Most games just have some cons like 'slower reload' or 'worse weapon handling' which is fine for the most part, that's like the basics that anyone can do and it works fine
Some games don't do that either which I think is fine too. I think that having the same weapon configurations would make the game repetitive and you would slowly build up muscle memory on how to kill people. I like when patterns are broken in any event in a game because it makes the game less repetitive to me, that's why, in 2042 when I have to shoot someone 3 more times because of him wearing armor having 120 or something HP, it feels frustrating but at the same time, it reminds me about how that sort of thing exists
I don't understand why some games say AP rounds will damage infantry less
Like bruh, aren't they still fast shooting projectiles? Why would they do less damage?
(Like I know it's balancing but logically, why?)
kind of like how silencers don't really silence guns and actually increase bullet velocity too
therefore more likely to penetrate targets at farther distance.
slap one on a shotgun and that bad boy kills anything in a 50meter radius with ease
Yeah that would make the most sense to me
Slap two and now it's a sniper
But did you know that suppressors can actually harm some firearms
And reduce accuracy for them because of their initial bullet velocities
yeah
firearms are weirdly complex and very simple at the same time
reason why the AK works if you throw it in mud
and a vector jams the fuck up
Yeah if the suppressor messes up the front barrel of the gun in even the slightest way, it will affect the accuracy because the barrel in front is specifically made to move the bullet as easily as possible with no damage inside because theres also a lot of heat dispersion that goes into firing a bullet
