Rum is waste product from sugar production :p

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

magic stone

I played it and was like this sucks ass

#

So I just left the playtest

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

viral warren
#

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

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.

urban violet

#

2042 is one of the worst battlefield games

urban violet
#

eh

#

2042’s 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 doesn’t 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 doesn’t make it the best battlefield or anything.

#

currently its my opinion that the specialists don’t 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 don’t know much about it and are just kinda programmed to not like them

magic stone
#

Also might have to do with it costing ÂŁ60 on release

copper python

# copper python specialists absolutely change the entire dynamic of the game. I cant wait for th...

hard disagree. i’ve 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 didn’t have “default” gadgets that that class was forced to use. i always hear people say that specialists make people “not play their roles” but this isn’t 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 isn’t true because again, you can only play two types of gadgets at once. the most “do it all” 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.

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

It's doable, but you'd have to get on the subway, and just overall stress a bit too much.

I found cod engine boring, so static. Nothing ever reacts to player input.

trim wind
#

Well idk about that

#

I just don’t 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 weren’t enough product keys anymore

Honestly the hardest part about being a nurse is still the social stuff

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

They crack easier.

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.

They keep pumping their sports games and battlefield

#

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

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 needed 7 arrows to take out a single skeleton..

Online-only PvPvE means it's either a battle royale or tarkov style extraction gameplay? Which is it then?

worthy hamlet

A little of both

#

Interesting, not sure I'll play but it piqued my curiosity

worthy hamlet
#

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

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

austere crag
# worthy hamlet

sounds like veteran devs are making their own studios to save gaming.

vivid oar
#

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

yeah true
unfortunately a lot of people still enjoy them despite the unoriginality

so the demand is high

#

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 😂

#

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

trim wind

So useless if you dont play together 😉

Still unstable af and if this is the final level design.. that will stop people very quickly. HUNT IS WAY MORE FLESHED OUT

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

For comparison I played 2042 beta for 20 hours even though it was a mess.

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

and then to mw2

Battlefield on the other hand seems to be starting from scratch everytime since battlefield 1

battlefield 1, bf4 and 2042 are quite different

vivid oar

unlike say bc1/bc2 and bf3/bf4

mayeb to make it feel like a different game?

for the beter or worse

although it becomes a little weird tryna play bf4 again

it had a worse launch than bf4, so it is a sequel in a way

by this time for bf4, they already had 16 new maps and 20 new weapons as DLC's

albeit paid

Call of Beauty: Modern Waifu

#

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.

buoyant fossil
viral warren
buoyant fossil
#

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

vivid oar
#

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?)

buoyant fossil
# vivid oar (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

vivid oar
#

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

buoyant fossil
#

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

vivid oar
#

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
