[blissful lake]

yeah hit reg is a big issue for me, lag making my gun shoot slower than it should but not teleporting around or anything

[thorny atlas]

you mean the dpi?

but why its smooth on every other game!

[abstract walrus]

DPI and Polling Rates are different

[wispy lynx]

i also had an issue where when someone would hit me, it would cause my game to stutter or freeze, or i would just suddenly get bombarded with shots all within half a second

[blissful lake]

yeah that happens to me still sometimes lmao

other than all them issues, the game is actually fun imo

[wispy lynx]

but ye i know what you mean with the firing rate being inconsistent, so frustrating

[wispy lynx]

for me it was fun for a spell, but i just dont feel like supporting them anymore because it just doesn’t feel like battlefield, it’s just too competitive of a scene for me

[blissful lake]

it feels like my entire game is bugging out, but its just the gun not shooting as it should causing it to get me killed a lot of the time

[thorny atlas]

I have the G502 hero! I just see it as the game is not optimized in those terms! literally tried everything I could but still got the issues, the other games I had worked perfectly, so I don't see if this is on my end.

[wispy lynx]

i put like nearly 150 hours into it, but they’d better optimize the game a lot before i plan on returning

[blissful lake]

oh yeah it doesnt even feel close to a battlefield at all, its just fun to come back and play every once in a while

[thorny atlas]

better get this man what he wants lool

[wispy lynx]

[blissful lake]

i think ive only put about 30 hours into the game, due to it coming on game pass

[abstract walrus]

I think it's a better battlefield game than 1 or 5

[wispy lynx]

lol

[thorny atlas]

honestly everyone and their style! so if a person enjoys a game I don't say don't have fun, I just say my opinion

[wispy lynx]

[thorny atlas]

wow even better than 1

well as I said, it really doesn't matter, everyone like something

[abstract walrus]

I don't like how the guns are handled, having 3 separate variants of each gun is kinda meh

[blissful lake]

yeah, the gun system wasnt the best

[wispy lynx]

gun system i agree was mid, but it wasn’t that terrible imo

could’ve been better, could’ve been worse

[thorny atlas]

it's because of accuracy

there are variants of guns depends on the use and situtation

[abstract walrus]

I know

[thorny atlas]

it couldve been better I agree

weapon customization went downhill since bf4

but they so fun to use

[wispy lynx]

idk i actually like the customization in 2042

[abstract walrus]

^

[thorny atlas]

breaking a bit of automatic weapons into single action or semi auto is nice change

[abstract walrus]

Now I don't like the vehicle gameplay, most of them are worse than they were in even BFV

[thorny atlas]

the attachement system in 2042 is good not gonna lie

[wispy lynx]

2042 has a lot of good ideas, but for me personally it’s a mixed bag

[thorny atlas]

this might be a hot take but I like BFV gunplay

[abstract walrus]

I would like it to if they didn't nerf all the damage before the last update and then only half reverted it

[thorny atlas]

hazard zone is the issue, they built around it and it didn't work 😦

[wispy lynx]

i hope they take what they’ve learned and also the good stuff with them to the next installation if the bf series

[blissful lake]

like cod atm, built around warzone and dmz and just forgot about mp

[wispy lynx]

i was honestly so disappointed in hazard zone, it could’ve been so good but it was just quite the opposite

[thorny atlas]

yeah I really wanted it to be goood even if the all out war isnt but it is what it is

I'm sad and happy at the same time lol, I'm happy other BFs are still very alive

the return of classes is a good change in the right direction

at least

[abstract walrus]

There is one problem with the return of classes

Crawford, Lis, and Boris are the Engineers, this is a slight problem.

[thorny atlas]

oh I see

you mean Lis still gonna spam the rockets lol

[wispy lynx]

The return of classes with 2042 is welcome, but doesn't really seem to fit some of the specialists, it'd be awesome if they could just get rid of specialists altogether and then just have the different "specialist abilities" to choose from within each class

[abstract walrus]

Lis has a TV missile, and can see enemy vehicles through walls if they're below 50% health, if she has her launcher out.
Crawford has a minigun that does a bit of damage to vehicles, and can quickly repair friendly vehicles if they're below 25% health.
Boris has a turret that does a bit of damage to vehicles, and spots enemies targeted by the turret.

1 of these is worthless, the other 2 are alright.

[thorny atlas]

I hate that

these specialist abilites or whatever is called

why not staying original

[wispy lynx]

Boris used to be so good, he's not that much fun anymore tbh

[thorny atlas]

and copying apex or warzone or whatever

[wispy lynx]

Rao is and will always be mid

[abstract walrus]

I don't nessecarily hate the specialists

[thorny atlas]

lots of people just want to be random soldiers with no super soldier abilities lol

[thorny atlas]

yeah I know in the same way a lot of people will like it

[abstract walrus]

If they just had more fitting lines at launch I don't think it would've been a problem

Sadly they didn't

https://tenor.com/view/dont-be-sad-this-is-just-how-it-works-out-sometimes-angel-bf2042-battlefield-angel-dont-be-sad-angel-gif-24855532

[thorny atlas]

"don't be sad... this is how it works out sometimes" lmao

[thorny atlas]

well we were typing it in the same time hahahah

[wispy lynx]

I don't mind the specialist abilities, but I don't like the fact that it feels like a hero shooter now

[thorny atlas]

yes this is what I mean

[wispy lynx]

Characters have their place in BF, and that's in the singleplayer campaigns, of which 2042 is also missing

[thorny atlas]

I wish I could stop ranting about this game lmao I really do! is it because the new dice didn't deliver what promosied or I love battlefield too much! I think I shouldn't care this much

[thorny atlas]

hahaha that's true

I coudln't get a refund lol

[blissful lake]

im glad i didnt even buy it, the beta was enough to decide

[wispy lynx]

Anyone remember the fact that one of Dice's heads resigned because he literally said "if you don't like it, don't buy it" for BFV?

[thorny atlas]

I'm an idiot! I knew the state and yet bought it I honestly deserve this lmao

[thorny atlas]

yeah I heard that, that was the reason of why too many people hate 5 right?

[wispy lynx]

Funny thing was that I had a lot of fun with the beta because I like a good mindless shooter, which led me to preordering it

[abstract walrus]

My dad bought me 2042 for Christmas, early.

My dad also bought me Cyberpunk for my birthday.

I have not had a good run with gifts lately

[thorny atlas]

battlefield are bugs! it's fun that way. bugs are so fun, but that wasn't why 2042 suck

you guys getting gifts...

[blissful lake]

everyone just relied on the day 1 patch and it didnt fix anything

[abstract walrus]

He keeps up with games, enough to know about what's going on

He still sends me any article he finds about TF, it's why I knew about that article a couple days ago he sent me it

[wispy lynx]

People were hoping for a more historically accurate BFV, so there were some concerns about showing a lot of women when it was majority men in those fighting settings. That and also some other things just didn't seem quite right to folks, so that Dice guy called the fan base sexist instead of trying to fully understand people's initial criticisms of the game and trailers

[abstract walrus]

I want to know what went down behind the scenes

When I played the Beta for BFV it was literally nothing like the trailers? It was a historically accurate game for the most part.

[wispy lynx]

I'm pretty sure that the dude didn't resign of his own accord, he was probs coerced by a higher up in EA

[thorny atlas]

that's awesome! my dad thinks I'm always playing while trying a get a stable work lol

[wispy lynx]

A lack of cohesion I suppose

[thorny atlas]

I see! that sucks

[abstract walrus]

BFV has specialists

I thought 2042's were going to be a evolution of that.

[wispy lynx]

They do of a sort, but there are more options for these said specialists within each class and army

[thorny atlas]

they called specialist in the game! I honestly didn't notice that, but there are no abilities

[abstract walrus]

That's what I meant, I was willing to accept it since I thought the Specialists were still in the class system

[wispy lynx]

They honestly just simplified it down to a select few to where you see like 5 Sundance running around lol

[abstract walrus]

I do find that Mckay is still too powerful

[wispy lynx]

And annoying

[abstract walrus]

The wingsuit is situational, the Grappling Hook is absolutely not and is extremely powerful

Irish is about to be my main though

Moving him to support with his ADS's is great

[thorny atlas]

the wingsuit might be one of my favorite things in 2042

[wispy lynx]

I used to main Irish, he's got some great gear

[blissful lake]

i mostly use the wingsuit just because i dont want to use all the other specialists lmao

[abstract walrus]

They apparently changed the revive animations for squadmates in the new update that came out today

[thorny atlas]

big IQs

[wispy lynx]

The sound for the defib is different as well

[abstract walrus]

Since they put the class system back and now the supports have defibs like in BF4, the squad revive animation is just a medpen now instead of defibs

[blissful lake]

i dont even get revived so i wouldnt be able to know

[abstract walrus]

I'm a tier 80 falck main so uh I revive a lot

[wispy lynx]

The defib also has its own slot now instead of just popping up in revive animation

[abstract walrus]

Yeap

[wispy lynx]

Which is nice, it's what it should've been from the start

[abstract walrus]

idk if I like that or not, I kinda liked the system in BFV

Made it so there was more risk in reviving people where you couldn't just swap back to your gun immedately

[thorny atlas]

how many hours you got on 42 Kyne?

[abstract walrus]

500

[thorny atlas]

goddamn you been grinding it

[blissful lake]

i only unlocked the throwing knifes yesterday xD

[abstract walrus]

523*

S080

[thorny atlas]

well I'm glad you having fun! even tho we talked about how we don't like the game but the end goal is to always have fun and since you enjoy that's a win 💪

[abstract walrus]

Level 100 on every battlepass

[blissful lake]

damnn

[abstract walrus]

The cosmetics in the battlepasses have actually been like, good?

They're better than anything in Apex or Siege at least

[blissful lake]

yeah i actually really like the battle pass this season

[thorny atlas]

got the same hours in hunt showdown since I din't like 2042 lol

[abstract walrus]

There's a new bundle in the store that has more Nordvik cosmetics

I think I will be buying it since it adds a baton takedown

[blissful lake]

dont think ive ever managed to get or see a takedown in 42 xD

[abstract walrus]

I play on hardcore servers sometimes

[thorny atlas]

the good thing about 42 tho is crossplay and an anticheat

[abstract walrus]

When you get killed on that your revive state lets you crawl around a bit, not much since it's hardcore and a bullet will kill you, but it lets you do takedowns on enemies when you down them

[thorny atlas]

a chance to get you killed by another player lol

[abstract walrus]

I will take that chance to humilate people

I killed a squad of 3 camping on a skyscraper roof and did a takedown on all of them

💪

[wispy lynx]

Idk how it is now, but apparently 2042 used to be so terribly optimized that cheaters literally couldn't use aimbot or anything because it would just break the game or cause more issues

Kinda wish they'd bring back some of the BF1 takedowns, those were so effing brutal I loved em

[thorny atlas]

really? I haven't seen much cheaters

[blissful lake]

i liked how in bf4 you could counter attack sometimes

[thorny atlas]

yeah when you're in front of him you can counter

[wispy lynx]

Yeah, and you can thank some of the lack of optimization for that, tho I'm sure that it's more of the anticheat now

[wispy lynx]

Oh yeah I totally forgot about that mechanic

[blissful lake]

i liked the first person takedowns, i dont like the 2042 ones, reminds me of the cod ones

[thorny atlas]

you think the anticheat affects performance too?

[wispy lynx]

I just think that some of these takedowns where you just pick the dude up just to slice their neck is just cringe

[wispy lynx]

Not really no, I think it has to do with their engine

[thorny atlas]

it's always close to call of duty than battlefield right!

[wispy lynx]

Their engine is terrible

[thorny atlas]

ah I see

if it's Frostbyte it's good

frostbite*

[wispy lynx]

Frostbite with 1 and 5 worked well, I think they were in the middle of improving it but it was just half baked for 2042

[thorny atlas]

it could be

[wispy lynx]

Which is why it doesn't look as good and doesn't run as well

[thorny atlas]

or just the talent of old aren't there anymore

what dice pulled in bf3 is unbelievable

[wispy lynx]

Yeah that too, many BF devs from the golden age are gone

If they just make Bad Company 3 and they do it well, I think they could bring a lot of folks back

[thorny atlas]

I would love that

if I don't like a game I don't play it because I'll just make myself mad. I play the ones I like and I'm happy lol

look even bf3 now is active, a 11years game

[runic meteor]

I'm playing Reality Mod these days, it's a lot of fun 🙂

Based off BF3

[wispy lynx]

Dang, that's awesone

[thorny atlas]

venice unleached?

[wispy lynx]

Maybe I'll play some BF1 or HLL after work

[blissful lake]

even the battlefield mobile game got cancelled today

[runic meteor]

Yuuuup

[wispy lynx]

Wait it did?

Dang, that had way better destruction

[blissful lake]

yeah same with apex mobile

[signal cedar]

was about time

[thorny atlas]

that's pretty cool! I haven't tried it yet

[abstract walrus]

https://www.ea.com/news/ea-mobile-strategy-realignment

[wispy lynx]

Ah apex mobile looked terrible from the start lol

[abstract walrus]

Yeahhh

[wispy lynx]

They should cancel the switch version too, it runs terribly

[thorny atlas]

bruh it looked better than bf2042 to be honest hahahahaha it has bf3 destruction lmao

[wispy lynx]

FOV is also so limited, it's like wearing goggles

[abstract walrus]

They also delayed Jedi Survivor

[blissful lake]

yeah i saw that

[wispy lynx]

If it need more time, then go right on ahead

[abstract walrus]

April 28th

[thorny atlas]

apex too whaaat?!!! I thought it was success lmao?!!!

[abstract walrus]

Not entirely sure when the original date was

[wispy lynx]

The first one was pretty fun

[blissful lake]

sometime in march i think

[thorny atlas]

damn that's a lot of news for ea

but yeah take that destruction on the mobile version into the pc and console lol

[thorny atlas]

hit me up when you want to play!

[wispy lynx]

idk what time it is for ya, so idk if it’s ever too late during the week

i normally get off around 10 pm cet

but definitely, always looking for folks to play BF1 and HLL with

[thorny atlas]

when do you usually play! I'll open google and convert timezones to see lol

[wispy lynx]

sometimes not until like 12 am CET lol, im in the US so it would be like 4 pm for me

[thorny atlas]

I'm confused I thought CET is us time or something

are you in eu or us?

[ocean osprey]

noo it's central european

[thorny atlas]

oh I see

[wispy lynx]

I'm in the US but I was converting to central European

[thorny atlas]

I'm bad at these times man

[wispy lynx]

Lol you're good

[thorny atlas]

ah I gotcha loool

[wispy lynx]

I only know the different times off the top of my head because I have quite a few friends in Europe

[ocean osprey]

Haha I've got PT CET exchange rates cuz I often have to with event start dates and updates in games

[thorny atlas]

I'm in GMT+1! 1 hour difference I guess from CET

[ocean osprey]

me too

[wispy lynx]

Ah, so it would be 11 pm when I normally get off work then?

[thorny atlas]

so 12am for me! that's good! I'm down for any battlefield

[wispy lynx]

Dang, you a night owl lol

[thorny atlas]

bro 11pm,? what happens to 4pm? lol

[wispy lynx]

Wait I'm so confused, is GMT +1 on the same time zone as CET?

I'm on MST

[thorny atlas]

yes it's the same

[wispy lynx]

Ah

[thorny atlas]

look

don't convert to me

just tell me when you gonna play lol in your time zone

[wispy lynx]

Alrighty

[thorny atlas]

approximately

now hahaha tell me now

[wispy lynx]

I'll probs be free around 4 pm MST, I'll keep ya posted because I need some food and I gotta take care of my dog

[proper island]

What game are y'all planning to play

[wispy lynx]

Good question

Right now my go-to games are destiny 2, BF1, and HLL

[thorny atlas]

woah! I don't think we can play lol

[wispy lynx]

I can do BFV as well since I have it installed

[thorny atlas]

4pm MST is goind to 1AM for me lmao

[wispy lynx]

Ye I figured lol, that's why I was surprised that you were willing to play

[thorny atlas]

you have any battlefield? or Hunt showdown or left4dead2...

[thorny atlas]

bro I don't know much about timezones, I though it won't be like Australia or something lol. well that sucks

but in weekends we can arrange some time

[wispy lynx]

Ah well, we always have the weekend

Yeah

[thorny atlas]

roger that!

[wispy lynx]

[thorny atlas]

@proper island you have bfv?

[proper island]

nu

[vale nebula]

you mean the founder of embark lol

[thorny atlas]

I can send you a copy if you want it. It's only 5$ on steam

[wispy lynx]

https://tenor.com/view/richard-simmons-shocked-omg-drama-clutch-pearls-gif-23576881

I didn't know that's what he did after lol, now I'm a bit worried for the devs

[thorny atlas]

No fucking way

[thorny atlas]

F lol

[vale nebula]

yeah that was soderlund in response to the female soldier backlash iirc

i still don’t really get the backlash and think it’s fine he said that

[thorny atlas]

"uneducated"

[wispy lynx]

it was a misunderstanding, most people were more concerned about the historical accuracy since it's a ww2 game

[thorny atlas]

I want tthe game to success tho

[wispy lynx]

plus making a statement like that against the general public and just treating the public like they all felt the same way wasn't a good PR move

[thorny atlas]

It was the doom of bfv bro! Just because of that

[wispy lynx]

BFV didn't have a good start and, while that certainly was one of the reasons, it wasn't the only one

[thorny atlas]

I wish I didn't hear about this but I'm sure the devs will do a great job I'm certain of it won't care about anything else.

[vale nebula]

probably not, but i also think it’s somewhat disingenuous to act like the backlash over female soldiers was driven entirely by “historical accuracy”

[wispy lynx]

I saw a lot of the comments, many of them weren't sexist

I personally was on the fence because of how far it would stray from the historical aspects of that era

[vale nebula]

you don’t have to be if you couch it in historical rhetoric

not saying the majority of the player base did that

but to me that always seemed more like what he was responding to

[wispy lynx]

plus the opinions of a few don't represent everyone's sentiments, and the way he handled it made it seem as if he was regarding the whole BF fanbase

while it was possibly not his intention, it wasn't the best way to go about the sexist criticisms

[proper island]

If you do I gotta pay you back 😭

Because I feel bad

[vale nebula]

fair. either way i don’t think a single pr gaffe outweighs the work he did for a lot of other good bf titles

[thorny atlas]

When bfv came out I was just still in bf4 I only saw articles and videos. And seems the woman in the trailer is the focus and people didn't like it. It focused on that fictional character instead of being accurate to history, at least what I watch on some videos

[wispy lynx]

from reading what you've said about him, it was most likely just a moment of stress or perhaps he was already planning on resigning

[thorny atlas]

Nah I got a little balance since long in steam doing nothing lol.

[wispy lynx]

because he resigned pretty quickly after that remark was made

while EA probs could've coerced him into leaving, he possibly was also fed up with EA and Dice bureaucracy and how it was deviating from what made Battlefield, well, Battlefield. I'm just speculating lol, idk what goes on in that man's head

[vale nebula]

it’s not hard to imagine someone wanting to leave given ea/dice’s trajectory

[wispy lynx]

oh absolutely

[thorny atlas]

Yep

Well I think the finals will work out! It seems promising so far

I hope so at least lol because I don't know what play if it doesn't lol

[vale nebula]

side note: didn’t every other major power besides the united states use women in some combat capacity during ww2? that’s what’s baffling to me

[wispy lynx]

I don't think so, at least Britain didn't

I think there may have been more integration of men and women in WW1, but I don't really study the great wars

[thorny atlas]

I watched this! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=cQlSjVg7X0c

[wispy lynx]

Women during WW2 were basically encouraged to replace the men in the workplace and were the ones manufacturing ammunition and some vehicles

[thorny atlas]

I don't think women is the issue

There are absolutely great women stories and there is no reason to hate them

I actually love them

I honestly wasn't there when the game released to see really the issue, but what I know is in that video lol

[wispy lynx]

I think we were discussing the original reception of the trailers and whatnot, I've got my own personal reasons why I don't enjoy BFV as much as other games, but nothing racist or sexist lol, just gameplay

[thorny atlas]

Exactly

I don't hate bfv lol I was late to play it but it's decent

I put aside these stuff when I want to play game! If it's fun then that's the goal

[vale nebula]

i don’t hate it either but it felt like a worse version of 1 minus the better movement mechanics. i jumped to 2042 and played very little of 5

[vale nebula]

correct

[wispy lynx]

yeah same, tho I stopped played 2042 and am trying out 5 more

[thorny atlas]

I actually looking for people to squad up in bfv but I still couldn't find them lol my friends are playing something else. Gunplay is pretty good

[abstract walrus]

I don't like people saying that "if you don't like the game don't buy it" line

It's cut out of context from a two paragraph long statement lol

[thorny atlas]

I don't know people didn't like it and the game dropped 85% in sales as the video suggest

[grand ember]

bfv's visibility is really bad

[thorny atlas]

@proper island send me your steam I'll send and get some games going and build a bf5 squad. I'll do it tomorrow ;)

Whatever happened in the past! People seem to appreciate the game now. It has more players than bf2042

[vale nebula]

that too. and again i think saying all the backlash was driven only by a politically neutral desire for complete historical accuracy is duplicitous

[muted grotto]

2042 class system is decent so far, but UI is confusing.

[thorny atlas]

yoo sorry y'all for the long chat yesterday, hope I didn't make anyone angry with the too many notifications lol.

[thorny atlas]

@zinc glade are you here? can I send a DM?

[craggy echo]

Battlefield Mobile and Apex Mobile are shutting down

[shell stream]

Oh?

Why's that?

[craggy echo]

probably related to the fact that they didn't do well

if I had to guess

[shell stream]

I thought apex mobile slapped

[craggy echo]

idk maybe it did

but it was more that there were about 5 people that played it and liked it

[lament pilot]

Lots of bots

Nota lot of people like to play new brs on mobile

Existing ones are already declining like pubg and fort

[thorny atlas]

chatgpt says apex is the best in terms of gameplay! I agree lol

lol

let me see

[muted grotto]

EA shutting down a studio yet again 😦 too bad for industrial toys

I was planning to get a new phone eventually along with a controller holder to play bf mobile

But bf mobile didn't even last as long as bf3 aftershock

[thorny atlas]

you got em really thinking lol

or it's just slow

sports game lmao

but I like to ask him about culture stuff

it really know about me

I said what's my current year as I'm one of the amazigh people and it said it correct

not many know that we'are at 2973

it's very specific in some places within regions

yeah this thing is insane

yeah people troll it lmao

it give accurate calculations, even its model is before 2021 but still says the exact year

I saw someone troll it, he said for example Jack's mom has 4 kids : Josh, daniel and john.

what is the name of the 4th kid

AI always says I need more information but it was right there, Jack's mom, jack is the 4th

I can't find the picture of that

yeah that and much more

[lament pilot]

Data model is older tho

[thorny atlas]

I heard about it, they said it was better than all the people who test right

[thorny atlas]

it still can count anything

to the future I mean

[lament pilot]

Yeah but not everything is up to date

They're getting there ig

[thorny atlas]

what's ig?

[lament pilot]

I guess

[thorny atlas]

damn! you have exams! good luck bro

[thorny atlas]

I see haha thanks

[lament pilot]

c:

[thorny atlas]

lool yeah! but again it's more just fetching what's in the internet! it can create something that's not on the internet

and that's what is scary about it

I don't use it, but today I tried to test if it know some specific and not know things

about the model being a bit old, it still works. our year in 2021 is 2971 but it still said now the year is 2973

anyways I just asked about some culture stuff, I don't think it be useful for what I do in a direct way. if it turn out helpful I'm gonna abuse it for sure lool

that's cheating btw hahaha it uses the internet and we don't! lol

[abstract walrus]

What's one of your favorite video game trailers?

[thorny atlas]

this one right here :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDDfPxF3EFE

[late swallow]

I'd say BF2042

[abstract walrus]

https://www.youtube.com/clip/UgkxNyx7OzFCcMrNA_gp6GpVBQqPm8NYdu8-

I miss when gameplay trailers were just kinda bad

[thorny atlas]

nah that was a true gameplay trailer! nothing fake. if you mean a CG trailer then Cyberpunk is my favorite

[abstract walrus]

I meant like the gameplay in it being done by someone who shouldn't be plaqying games lol

[thorny atlas]

oh it's always like that loool! almost every single one I saw is like someone using a controler and can't aim sh*t

every battlefield is that, even lot of other games

also I think it's scripted

[muted grotto]

Basically a chegg account grants access to most hw answers. My uni said they were working with them to find who copies stuff. I was a good boi and didn't use it lol

and also I didn't want to pay money for it

[lament pilot]

honestly i dont mind that trailers are scripted

[abstract walrus]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cC2bsG4vVG4

[lament pilot]

as long as they dont over-showcase something that doesnt exist in the actual game

Zelda Tears of the Kingdom announcement trailer back in like 2019

[abstract walrus]

Final Stand is probably my favorite bit trailer from battlefield

I love everything about it

EA I will sell my soul for a prequel to 2142

[lament pilot]

the most dissapointing thing about 2042 for me is how the port map was initially advertised with containers and the outside of it btut hen ended up being only containers

[thorny atlas]

that and second assault are my favorite DLCs! final stand is where they added the railgun some crazy advanced tech

[lament pilot]

couldve been super cool to have half of it as the port and the other half as part of the city with the middle being naval combat

[lament pilot]

yesss

what was that map from final stand which was like snowy + night

you could launch from those pods

[thorny atlas]

I honestly never played 2142 is it that good? I know it has same graphics as bf2

[abstract walrus]

No clue

Never could play it but I liked the setting

[thorny atlas]

hangar

[thorny atlas]

hangar or hanguar ....

[lament pilot]

yeah this one

[thorny atlas]

yeah I like that map a lot

[wispy lynx]

Man I honestly was hoping that the tornadoes and stuff would just lay waste to the map instead of get a lil windy

[thorny atlas]

what's your all time favorite map in the franchise?

[wispy lynx]

Man that's a tough one

[lament pilot]

Oh yeah that too

What about top 3

Whole franchise

[thorny atlas]

it's always been Caspian border for me (bf3 version)! they also done brilliant marketing for it aswell as a whole trailer lol

[thorny atlas]

yeah that's better

[wispy lynx]

Sinai desert is probs one of my fav, mainly on operations

[thorny atlas]

and very tough aswell lol

[lament pilot]

Ooh

A lot of people hate sinai

[wispy lynx]

Duuude Sinai is so good tho

[lament pilot]

I love it

[wispy lynx]

Apart from the one objective way out in the desert

[lament pilot]

Gahaha

[wispy lynx]

I felt that was a bit too far

[lament pilot]

I don't enjoy conquest

Like I do if I wanna chill

[wispy lynx]

I don't mind conquest, but I absolutely love breakthrough

[lament pilot]

But operations is more cool

Yesss

[wispy lynx]

The Argonne forest is also one of my favs

[lament pilot]

Frr

Bf1 maps were smth

Memorable maps

[wispy lynx]

The one fort de vaux map is one of my favs for infantry conquest, it gets so brutal

[lament pilot]

Yeah

It's like metro

[wispy lynx]

Heck ye

[lament pilot]

Grenade spam haha

[thorny atlas]

honestly all bf3 maps are very good!
1-caspian border (bf3)
2-damavand peak
3-siege of shanghai

I know there are many more amazing ones but it's a tough question

[lament pilot]

Siege ooh

[thorny atlas]

Metro is amazing! could be on top 3

[lament pilot]

Mines unpopular opinion but in no order:

• paracel storm (bf4)
• harvest day (bc2)
• iwo Jima (bfv)

[thorny atlas]

even tho bf4 is my favorite of them all, but still it's maps are not as good as bf3 or some of bf1 are better

Harvest day let me look if I remember that

[lament pilot]

It's the rlly open map

I love sniping so all of these are open haha

[thorny atlas]

oh I see hahah that's a good one

[lament pilot]

Iwo Jima is the reason I have nearly 400h on bfv haha

[thorny atlas]

my fav in bc2 is heavy metal

[lament pilot]

Ooh

That one was great too. huge map

[thorny atlas]

yeah the pacific addition is good

I still havent played many hours in bfv nor bf1 I was on bf4 for long time

[lament pilot]

Ooh I see

[thorny atlas]

actually untill recently only like 2 years ago

and I enjoy them a lot man bf1 and 5 are good

[lament pilot]

Fun fact in my first 500h on bf4 I only played 2 maps: paracel storm and golmud railway only because those were back to back rotation haha and then I didn't like any other map

[thorny atlas]

golmud is my number 1 map in bf4 hahahahah

what a map

[lament pilot]

Oooh

[thorny atlas]

perfect for all out war

[lament pilot]

Yeppp

You can do anything on that map

It's slightly vehicle heavy tho

[thorny atlas]

12 tanks and 4 or 6 jets and still very balanced

[lament pilot]

And that train lol

[thorny atlas]

that's true this why I like

yeah ahahahha when the round starts everyone is like " Get the D"

[lament pilot]

Imagine a bf1 version of golmud where theres the armoted train on the track

[lament pilot]

YEPPP

Waste jets and helis on it

[thorny atlas]

would love that

[thorny atlas]

worth it imo hahahah it's a strategic play

[lament pilot]

Yeah

I don't mind since I only snipe

[thorny atlas]

I just love the sandbox battlefield gives to players! so many playstyles

[lament pilot]

My support class has like 0 weapons unlocked
Most is assault and recon

[thorny atlas]

damn hahaha

[lament pilot]

Yepp definitely

[thorny atlas]

I prefer having some SMAWs with me all the time

[lament pilot]

Haha fair fair

But SMAWs don't do as much dmg right

I thought RPGs did one of the most without lockon

[thorny atlas]

yeah I mostly use them for air vehicles! it's faster than RPG but one shots choppers

also I sneak on some tanks and hit them from behind for critical 50damage

[lament pilot]

Oh yh

Are u an AT player

[thorny atlas]

yeah

it's just handy to have AT rocket and repair tool

for driving and taking down vehicles

2nd class is assault, ACE 23 and medkits

[abstract walrus]

LAG

One of the BF3 trailers has like

The rawest scream I have ever heard in any media

https://youtu.be/C-rwT7JIfZ4?t=23

[lament pilot]

No game can have a 3 in the back

Except of bf3

[abstract walrus]

Thiks is making me want to play BF3 again

[thorny atlas]

hahahahah I love these scream a lot man

[abstract walrus]

11 year old trailers still work

[thorny atlas]

let me send you one with bf4 lol

[thorny atlas]

loool it's quality at that time for sure! and now aswell

I just cut it from a montage of mine lol these are hilarous! you hear them all the time

[abstract walrus]

heheh

[thorny atlas]

here is a crazier one with bf1 I swear I do not change anything

[abstract walrus]

The screams in BF1 are metal

[abstract walrus]

I don't want to know how they got the recordings for the screams

But they are good

[thorny atlas]

hahahahahha that's funny would love to hear the voice actors scream

since you mentioned it! I don't even know how they did Left4dead2 ones lmao

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLDy8dgdHac&t=393s

my dudes will need a long healing time lmao

[abstract walrus]

Apparently BF3 is also canon to 2042

One of the specialists lost their parents to a Nuke going off in Paris

[fallow sequoia]

Sundance right?

[abstract walrus]

I think they're french so probably

[fallow sequoia]

Yeah she's the only one who speaks french

Also all mainline bf games are canon

Even 2142 is

[abstract walrus]

Javelins let's go

[lilac prism]

NO WHY

[vale nebula]

good lord

[wispy lynx]

https://www.pcgamer.com/the-day-before-devs-reverse-course-again-announce-a-10-minute-gameplay-extravaganza-for-thursday/

And the plot thickens

Let's see how "real" this "gameplay" footage will be

[noble field]

Very low skill game, even for a modern MMORPG (easy entry), with strong advertising revenue generating a large playerbase with free to play model.

The gameplay, especially early to mid game is intentionally designed poorly (obvious opinion and realtively speaking to other games, my opinion as well as what I've read from people who have detailed the monetization system), alongside grind to encourage "pay to skip", which is really just pay to win in disguise, which combined with the large player population means an ideal target for a real money for game item market alongside the bot accounts associated with that. This led to player bans with false positives and subsequent review bombing.

[warm temple]

NOOOO i’m still waiting for another titanfall man 😭😭

[wispy lynx]

[crystal bloom]

good tbh

any titanfall game released today will probably be soulless and riddled with mtx

would only serve to worsen the reputation of tf

just want respawn to fix tf2

[uneven urchin]

The Day Before seems like one of the ethically hardest to justify games with what has come out about it.. I loved The Division and I do like me some action but damn

[fallow sequoia]

its a straight up scam

theres nothing to justify, take a look at the devs' track record of cancelled games

[sage cairn]

The Delay Before? 💀

Day*

👀

[fallow sequoia]

yes

[sage cairn]

when's the 10 mins gameplay of guys on ice with laptops using a random app?

they dont say the hour they will release the vid

[lament pilot]

10 minutes of flashy shooting, reflective rtx puddles on a textured surface and 'good' lighting mixed with motion blur

[uneven urchin]

I mean, weren’t they also abusing free labor? And crunching

[lament pilot]

yepp

"volunteering"

no doubt the game's gonna look great, but it's not hard to make a good looking game in 2023 either

tho since they havent shown us any real core mechanics of the game in action, im p sure everything is either too shallow or dissapointing to show, or they literally don't have anything to show

[uneven urchin]

You think they just animated something in engine?

[lament pilot]

yeah 100%

oh this time around?

idk hopefully not

[uneven urchin]

Hmmm

[lament pilot]

either that or what i said earlier

just some flashy scenes to hype people up

im hoping to be wrong haha

been wanting an open world coop experience for so long to play with my close friends

[abstract walrus]

i rly hope gravity well shares something abt what they’re working on this year

that’s the studio all the titanfall devs left to

[uneven urchin]

Who knows ey

[runic meteor]

The wording is important here as well: they changed from "10 minutes of raw gameplay footage" to "10 minutes of gameplay extravaganza"

(talking about the Day Before gameplay showcase here sorry)

[blissful lake]

that game will probably never come out at this point lmao

[runic meteor]

Oh yeah, I really doubt it exists at all - but that's the whole communication surrounding it that is fascinating to follow 👀

(plus I'm really not interested in such a game, may it be done in the best way possible)

[blissful lake]

I was looking forward to the game at first, now it probably won’t even come out

Looked too good to be true, apparently there’s gameplay coming today

[runic meteor]

I seriously hope that it'll not break any expectations people have 👀

[crystal bloom]

i'm sure there's a game

they have made games before

it's just nowhere near as good as they're making it sound

[abstract walrus]

The new deep rock anniversary DLC looks pretty good

[blissful lake]

then just abandoned them months later lmao

[crystal bloom]

Yeah, but the games did exist

[fallow sequoia]

they were in early access and then abandoned

i wouldn't call a game that's in early access, a finished one

also even if the day before exists or not, it's a scam from first sight

and I wouldn't trust developers with a shady background, who also takes in people for "volunteering" work

[blissful lake]

theyre releasing some raw gameplay later today, hopefully it actually looks somewhat decent. will probably be abandoned anyway even if it comes out

[abstract walrus]

https://www.fntastic.com/work-at-fntastic

Considering this is their work at us page there's literally no doubt in my mind it's a scam lol

[blissful lake]

even the mods in the discord didnt even get given a chance to see the gameplay lmao. apparently gameplay is coming around 10am pst

[wispy lynx]

The fact that this "game" looks this good, has this much stuff to do, all done by "volunteer" devs in like 4-5 years just raises some major concerns for me lol

That and the fact that the whole legal battle over trademarking the name isn't really consistent with their story. Like when they first announced the delay, it was due to legal issues, but then later they said they were already planning on delaying before they found out about the potential lawsuit against them

And now it seems like it doesn't matter because they've gone ahead and are releasing more "gameplay," regardless of legal issues and possible repercussions

[runic meteor]

Wait and see, yolk folks

[wispy lynx]

Wasn't their last gameplay footage thing like only a third of gameplay and the rest was ads for mobile game stuff?

[runic meteor]

Pretty much yeah, and already kind of a downgrade from the initial release.

Has anyone tried Warlander on Steam? We tried it with a bunch of friends last night and we had so much fun - kind of a MOBA Hack'n'Slash where you have squad and you need to go detroy the enemy castle core.
Super fun and chaotic (but in a good way), and there is a 5 armies battle mode where there are 100 players on the map, and Team Commanders can make alliances and treasons, we had a blast 🙂

[muted grotto]

I got bored and bought black ops cold war. It's a 200gb download, what a joke lmao

[craggy echo]

was delayed an hour for every hour for the last 3 hours

40 minutes left till it either releases or delays again

hip hip hooray

[blissful lake]

no way, how can they mess up a gameplay trailer lmfao

[uneven urchin]

by not having actual gameplay I reckon

and maybe its too obvious so they have to rerender it haha

[craggy echo]

I mean I don't blame them

their entire reception is hanging off of this one trailer

[wispy lynx]

Wait they're delaying a VIDEO?

[abstract walrus]

They did already

[wispy lynx]

Wow what a joke

[craggy echo]

but yknow they could literally release the video tomorrow, and I'd be fine with that

but, just let us know that, yknow

[wispy lynx]

Just watch their most recent video on their channel, the game isn't real at all

[craggy echo]

instead of delaying it within the hour that it will release

[craggy echo]

you don't have to be an EE hunter to tell 🤣

[wispy lynx]

Ye I know, I was just curious about what stuff they've actually published on their channel

Their whole "day in the life" video is so clearly made up, and I can't tell if it was meant to be satire

[craggy echo]

The crazy thing is though, they aren't doing this for money!

There are no preorders

They don't have any donation holes either

[wispy lynx]

There's legit a part where there's someone seemingly "playing" the game but they're not pressing any buttons at all

[craggy echo]

All of the gameplay is faked, obviously, but they gotta have kept most of the assets and models

[wispy lynx]

Well yeah of course, I'm sure that some of these folks are definitely talented, but not video game talented

[craggy echo]

but yknow I think we wait until the "actual" gameplay release

and then go from there

[wispy lynx]

Plot twist, it's just mobile game stuff, just like most of the content on their YT channel

I wonder how their stock shares are now, if they even have any

[blissful lake]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-KgrIGUhoZA&ab_channel=Fntastic

at least the premiere went up lmao

[craggy echo]

Oh yay

[blissful lake]

delayed by another 15 min too lol

[wispy lynx]

Still surprised that this game is so highly anticipated despite the fact that the only game they have on steam is a prophunt game with just mixed reviews lol

Oh wait nvm they have a couple games, but nothing that seems very good lol

If they actually do somehow release the day before, I'm sure it'll be a terrible mess with a new low of underdelivering

[signal cedar]

Is it happening xD? Thought they had some issues with the name

[wispy lynx]

Their story is inconsistent and doesn't make any sense

[abstract walrus]

We are about to see the gamest game ever made

[wispy lynx]

If you can even call it a game

[abstract walrus]

I'm gonna be dead 25 minutes before this ever gets shown

[wispy lynx]

Lmaoooo 5 minutes of waiting

[blissful lake]

another 5 minutes to wait

[wispy lynx]

What a joke

in all this time waiting, i met a girl, got married and now we have 3 kids

[abstract walrus]

Look no hud

[wispy lynx]

wow no hud, exploring the same area over again

[blissful lake]

a little stamina bar was there for a sec

[signal cedar]

i thought it's some touch control feedback ahaha

[abstract walrus]

A HUD

THEY DID IT

What is this music

Man's sitting in a elevator

[signal cedar]

I mean this guy sucks at showing stuff

[abstract walrus]

Can we get the poor girl some jeans or something what she's wearing rn looks exceptionally uncomfortable

[wispy lynx]

their whole weapons customization is inconsistent with other trailers, at least the announcement trailer back a couple years ago

[craggy echo]

okay so the UI is real

[abstract walrus]

WHERE IS THE MUSIC COMING FROM

[craggy echo]

radio on bench

[signal cedar]

From hell

[wispy lynx]

where are all the zombies at lol

[blissful lake]

this shows so much about the game lmao

[craggy echo]

at least the search button looks nice

[abstract walrus]

this 3 minutes has sold me

How much for the ultimate edition? $300?

[craggy echo]

also there are prompts coming up on the car doors for like 0.1 seconds it's real

[blissful lake]

amazing muzzle flash

[wispy lynx]

so wait, how is this gonna be a survival game if there are like only 3 zombies every 100 feet

[craggy echo]

didn't catch it, sarcasm?

[blissful lake]

of course

[craggy echo]

interesting puzzle

no idea what they've achieved

[signal cedar]

wow. Rust

[wispy lynx]

what was the point of that lmaoooo

[craggy echo]

to prove that you can actually do it, I guess

[abstract walrus]

Let me turn off the alarm that I turned on by entering the building and then leave without doing anything

[craggy echo]

also this surely isn't scripted, it would take too much time

unless they literally aren't spending time developing the game

[signal cedar]

Well they had like alot of time xD

[craggy echo]

which would be weird as there are no pre-orders

so they get no money from taking this long faking it

[wispy lynx]

oh look, scoping is different now

[craggy echo]

the animation blending is great at least

[wispy lynx]

quite the survival game

[craggy echo]

waste of ammo smh

[vale nebula]

the recoil pattern lol

[abstract walrus]

Drinking animations lets go

[craggy echo]

realism 100

[wispy lynx]

more dead than some cosmodrome areas on D2

[craggy echo]

I mean you can tell if something is fake if there are contextual animations which they'd never make

[abstract walrus]

Is there supposed to be base building or something

[blissful lake]

showing off walking more than the actual game

[craggy echo]

I guess the map is one big open thing

so no sections

[wispy lynx]

that’s the fntastic way

[craggy echo]

I mean what's so groundbreaking about a hud anyway, it would just have weapons and consumable button

also I guess nice death physics

no jumpy ragdolls

[abstract walrus]

only zombies in specific areas, none outside

[wispy lynx]

what’s the point of playing this game if there’s like no challenge

[abstract walrus]

what is that voiceover LMAO

[craggy echo]

other players

[craggy echo]

LMFAOOO

[signal cedar]

I mean this is their gameplay trailer?

[wispy lynx]

but is it pvp?

[blissful lake]

apparently so

[craggy echo]

yeah

[blissful lake]

the world looks so empty

[wispy lynx]

didn’t look pvp to me, just pve and the ither dude didn’t do a darn thing lmao

[signal cedar]

At least it should've been called pre-alpha footage or something

[abstract walrus]

I'm like

90% sure they faded to black because there was nothing around the corner LMAO

[craggy echo]

more people and zombies would be nice. I'm almost certain those zombie deaths are staged, so they did less of them

[vale nebula]

was only peripherally aware of what was going on with this game but uh that does not bode well

[signal cedar]

This looked straight up like a leaked video and they use it to market the game

[wispy lynx]

GTA6 leaks vibes

[blissful lake]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CHvJkU5ILg&ab_channel=Fntastic

[wispy lynx]

but even the GTA6 leaks looked better than this

[blissful lake]

another premiere in 12 min

[abstract walrus]

Well

[wispy lynx]

what the

[abstract walrus]

All I see in the comments are people talking about the leggings the character was wearing

Some things never change

[wispy lynx]

thirsty feckers

[abstract walrus]

Can't wait to see this playing the game short

[wispy lynx]

it was a distraction from the lack of actual “gameplay”

[abstract walrus]

For the UI to be completely different

[craggy echo]

probably what they were intending haha

[wispy lynx]

have y’all seen their video where they pretend they’re coding for the game

[signal cedar]

no? LOL

[blissful lake]

when they said the gameplay will show off all the features players have been asking for xD

[wispy lynx]

broooo it’s one of their YT shorts, it’s so abysmally bad

[wispy lynx]

I guess players have been asking for cake

[blissful lake]

The description of the video is just 'Subscribe.' lmao

[craggy echo]

what about it

[abstract walrus]

If this isn't a scam they somehow went from a actual good weapon UI to whatever the hell the new one is

[wispy lynx]

yep the weapons modification is way different, it’s like they hired all these devs to make the same thing without communicating that to the others

[blissful lake]

this game was meant to come out in 4 weeks if the delay never happened xD

[wispy lynx]

not even like any closed/open alpha playtests or anything from an indie company to ensure that their totally completely real game runs properly on other systems all at once? Crazy!

[craggy echo]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CHvJkU5ILg

[wispy lynx]

so funny to see that people are still excited for this game

[abstract walrus]

I'm excited

I am a huge Entropy fan

[wispy lynx]

the pretty graphics are the only plus lol

[signal cedar]

I would be if they wouldn't release it for at least 2 years from now

[wispy lynx]

dang they legit got a countdown timer for a youtube short

timer is longer than the feckin video!

[abstract walrus]

If this is actually a youtube short and not just a short vidoe

I'm going to laugh

A mean laugh, a completely vindictive hate filled laugh.

[signal cedar]

Imagine the same video but in 3 minutes

[abstract walrus]

same video, sped up 5 times

lmao

[blissful lake]

thats it

[signal cedar]

It s so funny that no one believes them an they have to shoot footage with a camera hahahaha

[abstract walrus]

God did they just past a gameplay over top of his screen

[craggy echo]

ohh, this is raw

[wispy lynx]

so raw

[craggy echo]

nah I'm trying to analyze the mouse movements

[abstract walrus]

^

[craggy echo]

but I think someone will do it better

[wispy lynx]

the keyboard presses don’t line up completely

[abstract walrus]

He keeps firing for a bit after he lets the mouse button go

[craggy echo]

god if this is faked then this game has no hope

[wispy lynx]

it’s fake dude

[signal cedar]

This was better than the 10 minutes one anyway

[craggy echo]

happens in a few games

[blissful lake]

it doesnt even look like he presses a button to sprint

[craggy echo]

they still haven't added pre-orders, so I'm seriously confused what their game is

[wispy lynx]

a scam for investments

[abstract walrus]

Investor scam

[vale nebula]

perplexing

[wispy lynx]

that’s how they can skirt some legal troubles, but it can catch up to them

[craggy echo]

hmmph

[wispy lynx]

just play like world war z or something lol

[craggy echo]

I'm just here for the spectacle haha

[wispy lynx]

looks basically the same and it’s already been out for a while

[vale nebula]

yea i am now very interested in this but not for the right reasons lol

[craggy echo]

TLOU2 multiplayer is coming out I think ik what I'll be playing hahaha

I like Day Before's graphics, but I think this'll be even better 😍

[blissful lake]

i thought they were going through a legal battle over the name of the game, and the name is now plastered all over the gameplay

[abstract walrus]

They didn't have the gameplay pre-rendered enough yet so they had to pretend to delay the game over a trademark issue

And now they can do another round of investor calling

[craggy echo]

they are not, it is lie, but I have no idea why they think people would believe it

[wispy lynx]

i believe the lawsuit does exist, but they’re just using it as an excuse to cover the fact that their content wasnt rendered yet

[craggy echo]

they 'found out' about the copyright 6 days ago, so they are delaying it by 9 months..

bruh

[wispy lynx]

though the lawsuit i think was filed back in 2021, they don’t care about it lol

[crystal bloom]

lol what a joke, 8 minutes of walking, 1 minute of inventory, 1 minute of shooting

[signal cedar]

9 months isnt enough for what they showed us

[crystal bloom]

wouldn't surprise me if all that was staged too

[wispy lynx]

it was absolutely staged

i could count on one hand how many zombies there were that whole trailer lol

[craggy echo]

not cgi or anything, but totally staged

they haven't set up the npcs in the game yet I'm guessing, or their ragdolls suck, or something else.

[wispy lynx]

they very well could have some content, but it def won’t be like what was released

[blissful lake]

game does not look like its been in development for 4 years

[craggy echo]

and there's definitely a reason they didn't upload more than 30 seconds of gameplay played on a keyboard, like they totally could've

[wispy lynx]

they have a track record of making a half baked game, not fixing bugs, and then moving on

just check the reviews of their steam games

[craggy echo]

yep

[wispy lynx]

meanwhile tears of the kingdom has more legit gameplay than the day before, and we still know very little about the game

disregard the fact it’s from a reputable game publisher and devs

[blissful lake]

ive never heard a game be called fake

[lament pilot]

i laughed my ass off when they went to the crafting bench and crafted TWO ammo lmfao

[wispy lynx]

Yeah I thought that was odd lol

And then they proceed to empty their mag on zombies that are like two tap each

[lament pilot]

yep

so like... whats the objective of the game

i understand zombies and abandoned city and the last of us vibe but what are we supposed to do

😂 😂

[lament pilot]

honestly even if this isn't fake, i think the primary concern is how little they even showed

theres not a hint of the core mechanics shown in the gameplay, literally just walking and shooting which you can literally find for like a few 100 dollars on the marketplace and just slap on some assets and why couldnt i show the same

[wispy lynx]

I still have a feeling it was prerendered, no company is afraid of stooping low to just render fake gameplay, anyone remember Anthem?

Sure there probably is actual content, but not what they're promising, even with what little they're showing

[lament pilot]

i do agree with u the movement and everything feels way too perfect

like i see showcases from other games and you can tell its played by a human because of nuance movement ups and downs

but like even if this wasn't fake, it still looks fake

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CHvJkU5ILg&ab_channel=Fntastic

i find this funnier lol

[craggy echo]

it would be amazing if it was real

amazing because of how unlikely it is, lol

[wispy lynx]

This little clip showed more interesting gameplay than the other longer video, but it's a shame that it's not real

The hand movement/keyboard presses don't entirely line up

[craggy echo]

gonna wait on a frame analysis to get uploaded to be sure

there could always be input delays, or animations not being responsive yet

[wispy lynx]

You can look at it for yourself lol, he's pressing the forward movement key sometimes when he's not even moving forward

[lament pilot]

XD

also in the gameplay video, the movement feels liek its on a controller

but then theres a mouse cursor

[wispy lynx]

And if you look in other videos they have, especially on their previous video about working for Fntastic, there's some "gameplay" footage but nothing is even being pressed or moved

[lament pilot]

someone said "the people who liked the video never looked up"

ifykwim

[lament pilot]

truu

but

ugh idk man lol

[wispy lynx]

Lmaooooo fr tho

It's sad that it's gone from being so highly anticipated to showing the fact that it's not what it originally claimed to be

[lament pilot]

yeah

its sad cuz nvidia is getting their money from this

so are the devs from the popularity

the only people losing are us lol

[wispy lynx]

And investors

Kinda surprised that they didn't even pull a whole Kickstarter thing or even Patreon. They probs could get into lawsuits that way tho since they haven't really been delivering on what their fan base has been hoping for

[sage cairn]

💀 that was the most poitless video i've ever seen

[craggy echo]

If it weren't so limited in perspective and length, the point was to show that you could actually play the game..

They did it horribly though 😂

[sage cairn]

even the play tester was amazed

they looked so WOW

and the 10 minutes gameplay was kinda boring to me

had a nice ass tho! that was the part i liked the most

and the part where they had a light source moving the same direction their head was pointing, but there was no headlight, and no flashlight in the inventory

[lament pilot]

its the only thing that kept me going

/j

[shell stream]

So is The Day Before real or not?

[crystal bloom]

it's real as in there is a thing called the day before in existence

[sage cairn]

nah dont /j, we both know... i did the same as you

[wispy lynx]

There could be an actual game, but it probs won't be anything like what was shown

[sage cairn]

she had it nice

[sage cairn]

i have the same opinion

[blissful lake]

lmao, the whole chat in the live was just talking about it

[sage cairn]

oh rly hahahah

amazing

[blissful lake]

knew it was coming from the first minute lol

[ocean osprey]

to anyone playing league

asking you to decide purely based on the looks

spirit guard udyr or elementalist lux?

[blissful lake]

@sage cairn you play league right?

[sage cairn]

yees

[ocean osprey]

[sage cairn]

but kda all out or true damage akali beats them all

https://tenor.com/view/gasai-yuno-gasai-yuno-kod31-gif-21128628

[ocean osprey]

oooh I have 200 ME saved up for prestige kda akali

and wanna get star guardian one day

just asking cuz I get to choose a free ultimate skin

+25 skin shard opening

I'll let you know

[wispy lynx]

Lmaooo IGN has the day before video on their channel now and the comments def passed the vibe check

[lament pilot]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsAOAW5ZGZw&ab_channel=IGN

dont worry guys

the day before can fail us

but if this fails us

ill be real sad

not even mad

not angry

not dissapointed

just depressed

[wispy lynx]

I'm pretty sure this one is real

Sure a lot of the trailers do use some rendering, but we've seen some actual gameplay and it looks genuinely good. Plus it's stylized, unlike generic apocalypse ahh ahh the day before lookin ahh

Idk if imma get the game tho due to personal finances, but I will def join you in being disappointed if it ends up being all a farce and fake

[lament pilot]

haha yeah fr

[lament pilot]

XD

ur right tho

i really love the artstyle

its uncanny

[abstract walrus]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2212330/Your_Only_Move_Is_HUSTLE/

why didnt it embed

this game is rly fun

[warm temple]

oh that games great remember when it used to be called Yomi Hustle

[abstract walrus]

thats crazy

[uneven urchin]

I’m getting Hogwarts Legacy from my siblings

Now I can say “well I didn’t give them money”

So that way I prevent disappointment and keep my hands clean

But the sentimental value of HP thankfully outlives its creator

[fallow sequoia]

The author didn't create and develop the game

The talented developers did

You're supporting them, not the author

[uneven urchin]

But the Author does profit off of it and their team did have input on the story.

[fallow sequoia]

I'm aware

But still

Support the labor

That's the way I see it

[ocean osprey]

Do we have an estimated price tag?

[lament pilot]

60 usd

[ocean osprey]

Dang it this looks amazing but I'm afraid it'll cost 80€ and that will be too much after a pc upgrade

[ocean osprey]

Fair, thats still much, I'll probs wait for a discount

But have to play this one day

[lament pilot]

haha i also dont like paying so much for a game

its gonna cost me 80cad ;-;

[ocean osprey]

Its gonna cost me 21000 huf

:))

[lament pilot]

is that a lot

[ocean osprey]

well thats 60 usd

but yes it's a lot for me

[lament pilot]

;-;

[abstract walrus]

I never thought I'd see the day where Atomic Heart was the more legit looking game than another one

[uneven urchin]

Haha

I mean atomic heart had a clear direction and vibe from the get go

And ironically the least controversial developers

[fallow sequoia]

and most importantly, the music is made by non other than

MICK GORDON

[uneven urchin]

Eventhough the sovjet theme would suggest otherwise

Whereas Hogwarts Legacy is one of the most controversial releases due to modern culture

[lament pilot]

why are russian games so detailed and good 💀 (and also rlly memorable when played)

tarkov, metro series, war thunder, world of tanks, atomic heart, stalker

[fallow sequoia]

stalker is ukranian

[abstract walrus]

Games made companies in former USSR states tend to be good

Metro, Stalker, Pathologic, etc

[uneven urchin]

War thunder is not Russian, but bulgarian or something? I dont remember.. Atomic heart is developed by a company in Cyprus???

World of tanks is.. chinese??? Gaijin … don’t remember

Only tarkov is russian afaik

[fallow sequoia]

i'm gonna call swa a US citizen from now on

[abstract walrus]

I mean

World of tanks is Belarusian.
War Thunder Hungarian.
Metro & Stalker are Ukrainian.
Tarkov & Pathologic are Russian.

[blissful lake]

Honestly, the game I’m most looking forward to this month.

[ocean osprey]

Good to know we made one of the games having the most obnoxious ad campaigns

[thorny atlas]

yesterday on bf1! these kits are awesome lol

[runic meteor]

For anyone watching the Apex ALGS right now: LET'S GO GAMEWAAARD 🇫🇷 🔥

[abstract walrus]

The lore they've been slowly introducing into 2042 is kinda cool.

[abstract walrus]

There's a guy, OZ, he's the person at the end of the CGI trailer for the game. He's been the one that makes us go to all the new maps so far

[crystal bloom]

is there still lore?

i thought they gave up after irish's actor died

[abstract walrus]

Yeah, so OZ is building a superweapon

[crystal bloom]

why would he do that

[muted grotto]

To take down USA, Russia and become a new No-Pat superpower maybe?

[spare talon]

Anyone here ever play a game called Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory?

[lament pilot]

XD

I got my sources from Google

[lilac prism]

DOTO DISHONORED IS FREE

holy cow

its in epic games rn

[muted grotto]

Now that Dead Space is out, there isn't a paid release I'm looking forward to in the near future.

There is FF7 Rebirth in December but that's about it.

Also Starfield if that is ever going to come out.

[crystal bloom]

still amazed at the day before

they put out 10 minutes of walking and occasional shooting

tells us nothing about the game, there's no hook, nothing of actual interest

somebody needs to be fired because they can't even make their game seem good

[blissful lake]

People have pointed out that the first 5 seconds are a copy from the Cold War zombies reveal trailer

Just makes it even funnier

[uneven urchin]

No RE4?

I am kinda siked to play hogwarts legacy, though I am afraid my GPU will throw a fit one of these days :c

▶ Play video

the screenshots make me think its worth it just for the cheap laughs

no coop though

[muted grotto]

I am a bit skeptical about it because RE2 and RE3 were frustrating at times due to backtracking. But I plan to play it eventually when it goes on sale.

they say Dead Space was inspired by RE4 so maybe I'll enjoy it as well.

[wispy lynx]

@thorny atlas we still down for BF today?

https://tenor.com/view/nullcore-chillware-okaycool-gaming-lmaobox-gif-20132588

[uneven urchin]

I see I see!

[thorny atlas]

I sent you a msg

Now

[abstract walrus]

The gadget restrictions are welcome but like, the weapon proficiencies don't make any sense for a couple of them. Recon is a long range class, yeah, but 2/3 specialists in Recon have abilities that you need to be close range in. So the Recon's sniper proficiency does nothing for a a majority of Recon players. If you're using a scoped rifle for Paik or Rao you're playing them wrong. There should probably be 2 weapon class proficencies, so Recon gets Sniper & DMR. Engineer gets SMG & LMGs, Supports get SMG & Tactical, Assault gets ARs and Secondary.

It feels weird having a class system with proficiencies where half of the weapon types are ignored.

Rao needs to be moved to Support.
Paik moved to Assault.
Sundance or Mackay moved to Recon.

[rapid adder]

BF 2042 is starting to feel much better these days and i've been revived more times in the last week than I have since launch starting to enjoy it much more just hope they dont give up on it

[muted grotto]

Yeah class system is definetely better

Breakaway plays good now

[blissful lake]

yeah rao has some weird hack thing that i never use because im always long range

[muted grotto]

I only play a handful of specialists really

[blissful lake]

i just used to play sundance because i didnt like the specialist system at the time

[tropic plank]

Damn finally decided to try BF2042 after I saw all y'all playing and you were not kidding the game feels a MILLION times better now

[blissful lake]

yeah its way better

[shell stream]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsGSGuIZSc0

[blissful lake]

that is so fun to use in game, and its free too if u had both games

[runic meteor]

Damn those ALGS finals were insane

[uneven urchin]

Ok ok I got Hogwarts Legacy.. Might even dust off my Twitch
