battlefield-6

[rose fjord]

Folks, I've got a question to anyone who preordered BF6 the standard edition via the EA launcher :
do you have the option to upgrade to the premium bundle ? or do you gotta re-buy it ?

[willow lance]

Get a refund and buy phantom on steam so EA gets less money

[tulip jewel]

what if i want saudi to be richer

[tight prism]

the saudis dont even need money anyways so it doesnt matter where you buy it

they're just buying ea for the lols

[twilit tulip]

I hope they delay the campaign

[coral lintel]

Saudis earliest takeover date is Q1 2027.

what you do now have almost zero impact on them

[thin nexus]

Electronic Arts -> East Arabia

[ivory haven]

Because it needs work?

[tight prism]

good to know!

[twilit tulip]

Yeah it needs work alright

[tight prism]

I said they should delay the campaign too. not gonna hurt sales tbh

[ivory haven]

I mean, delaying the camping a bit to get it working properly isn’t an issue for it’s not a single player game

[tight prism]

needs to be a 1 up to mw2019s campaign imo

[coral lintel]

campaign 100% should be delayed even to the start of season 1, I bet they could have a chance to fix a couple things

[willow lance]

They can't delay the campaign because it's included in the disc lmao

[coral lintel]

they absolutely can lock the campaign, I can assure they have that power lol

[tight prism]

yeah they 1000% can lock it just like they can update anything else about the game

the pacing needs to be better and it just needs to feel more structured

[willow lance]

That creates a bigger issue in game ownership, someone who has a disc with no internet connection can't play the campaign since they can't patch the game

[ivory haven]

^

[delicate quartz]

wait till you find out about 'always online' games

[tight prism]

if you got a next gen console or pc and no internet connection theres a bigger issue there

[sinful peak]

now who wants to celebrate lgbtq pride with me 🏳️‍🌈

[coral lintel]

wait until he finds out battlefield isn't even on the disk lmao

[willow lance]

I don't think you understand the point of game ownership

[coral lintel]

I don't think you understand you don't own any game you buy. EA could turn the BF 2042 servers off tomorrow and your game is a brick

[tight prism]

i do i just am realistic and understand that the statistic of people that would be affected by a temporary delay in campaign to make it better is insignificant to the millions who want a proper polished game.

[coral lintel]

do I think it's right? Absolutely not but don't be ignorant of that fact

[willow lance]

Unless BF6 is online only someone with a PS5 disc of BF6 can play the campaign whenever they want

[tight prism]

you can own any game btw and the first time you play it there will be an automatic patch to fix issues so idk what youre even on about

[willow lance]

Just like how you can play BF3 campaign on PS3 despite servers being shut down

[delicate quartz]

the campaign/game would already be pre-locked in case stores sell their copies early

[thin nexus]

If were being realistic you truly dont own anything

[wide sail]

lf gunner, dm

[coral lintel]

in Canada you technically don't own the land you buy. It's technically a lifetime loan from the crown lol.

we own nothing and will like it :/

[tight prism]

what a failed country

[coral lintel]

I assume you're joking because if not lmao

[tight prism]

i wish i was lmao

[coral lintel]

found the American.

[tight prism]

everyone i know from canada always harps on how shit it is

[coral lintel]

if you knew Canadians at all you'd know complaining is a national sport

doesn't mean we hate our country

lmaooooooo

[tight prism]

america #1

[woven crest]

Dude he’s so right America number 1

[tight prism]

God bless the good ol' USA

[coral lintel]

you guys are NAILING IT ❤️

[thin nexus]

LOL

[woven crest]

Flag has a leaf on it

Perfect argument

[coral lintel]

that was his closing insult guys. Our country has a LEAF on it's flag.

[tight prism]

yup we got 50 stars baby

[coral lintel]

well I know when I've been beat. Later hosers.

[tight prism]

50 states ready to annex yall

[woven crest]

This conversation was so dumb lmao

[tight prism]

I just used Grok to ask why Canada is failing and that's what it said

[delicate quartz]

using grok unironically

[willow lance]

@grok is that true?

[tight prism]

Gotta make shit up to keep trolling this cantadian

You know Taka boy it feels good owning my bf6 loadout irl. Pax Armada ain't got shit on me

[foggy kite]

Canada is actually a better place to live according to metrics such as social support and healthcare

2/10 rage bait

[tight prism]

Not according to my friends who live in canada

[smoky umbra]

it's Tuesday btw

[smoky umbra]

nice sample size American

[foggy kite]

Sample size; 5<

[tight prism]

you gotta send me to italy then the other half of me to puerto rico

[smoky umbra]

https://tenor.com/view/baby-crying-baby-crying-gif-5943733

yeah I get it, some people are more sensitve than others

[charred gate]

Will ea being sold to Saudi Arabia effect bf6??

[willow lance]

Probably not

Deal goes through in 2027

[coral lintel]

I don't even think it'll effect BF7 or BC3 whatever they drop

[unique jewel]

Q1 Financial Year 2027, which starts in April.

[smoky umbra]

@wide sail ahahah someone reported me so funny

[coral lintel]

the saudi's are a wealth fund. They have their hands in everything already and it hasn't really changed anything. They're just investors.

I am curious what they're going to do with The Sims but that's about it

[willow lance]

They are probably like Tencent, very hands off

[acoustic plume]

Sources are saying the fiscal 2027 is sept 2026

[torpid phoenix]

everyone that i know from canada loves it here

[unique jewel]

That said, I highly suspect they'll sell off most everything that isn't the EA Sports line.

[coral lintel]

EA Sports is literally the only valuable thing EA owns lmao

they aren't selling off that

[unique jewel]

Last I saw in their quarterly reports is it was April, but I haven't actually looked in years. It's entirely possible that it's changed to Sep.

[acoustic plume]

All I know is im shorting the shit out of the next bf release

[acoustic plume]

That's more creditable. I got my info from usatoday. We'll see.. Thanks

[coral lintel]

I'd bet good money nothing happens to BF, I predict we'll see a middle eastern FC or something league though from EA Sports

considering how insane they've gone in on Golf and Football. I won't be surprised if they have a plan for EA Sports

[unique jewel]

Pretty much. Everything else EA owns combined makes up for a tiny percentage of their income. Their sports lines make the lions share of their income. Something like 95%, (though that percentage changes quarter to quarter and year to year).

[torpid phoenix]

dice and battlefield studios are published by EA, they're usually hands off with the development

i too am on the side of "nothing ever happens"

[unique jewel]

I'd be very surprised if they don't sell off or shutter everything else. Especially considering they're going into this deal with billions of debt.

[torpid phoenix]

i can only pray that they hack off bioware. they have not made a good game in over 10 years.

maxis, i feel kinda bad for.

"what about mass effect" mass effect is a good game if your mother smoked while she was pregnant

[coral lintel]

mass effect WAS a good game

[willow lance]

Bioware is on the chopping block ngl, interesting how they survived for that long when EA killed Visceral and Pandemic for less, any other studio would've been shut down after Andromeda

[torpid phoenix]

mass effect reminds me of every crappy 2000s sci-fi show that was trying to be firefly or farscape

[coral lintel]

I mean at the time it was one of the most beloved games available

[torn ermine]

So what does it mean now that EA is owned by the Saudi's?

[unique jewel]

It's hard to talk about on here, as it's highly political and we're not allowed to talk about that stuff here.

[spark drift]

Nope not yet

[ivory haven]

The process hasn’t started. Yet.

[coral lintel]

it doesn't have to be political. It's just billionaires swapping assets. It's meaningless to hang up on it

[spark drift]

still goes to other rich jerks aswell as new jerks

[unique jewel]

That's...not going to be the only change.

[coral lintel]

oh, I didn't know you had their business plan

[unique jewel]

I don't really need to know it. You don't generally fund projects that run counter to your core values. It will absolutely have an effect on what games get made and what content they feature.

[coral lintel]

Companies the Saudi's already have significant stakes in.

• 8% of nintendo
• 6% take-two
• they already had 8% in EA
• Capcom 5%
• They own 80% of English premier league
• They own LIV Golf
• They have stake in Formula 1
• Boxing

[unique jewel]

And? Significant != Controlling stake. Big difference.

[coral lintel]

ok let's go to the english premier league then. I wasn't aware they banned alcohol and women from stadiums lol.

I think people need to understand money matters above everything, and they aren't going to kill a golden goose just because

[unique jewel]

We'll see. I stand by my statement.

[torn ermine]

Not kill it, they spent 50 billion, them bussiness people gunna be looking to make that money back, how else they gunna do that but nickle and dime us? Think they will make a onetime profit and call it good? Lol

[willow lance]

I expect excessive MTX

BF Pro Pro

[unique jewel]

And for the record, I don't think they are going to kill EA, just that it's going to change their direction. We'll see few, if any games, that run counter to their core values come from EA, whereas they would have come before. This is assuming they keep anything beyond their sports games, of course.

[coral lintel]

EA made 7+ Billion in net revenue last year alone, that's without them cutting waste like Bioware. Add in a new FC league and EA can and will print money. Couple that with BF6 BR skins. They'll crack 10 bil yearly in 24 months

[spark drift]

Saudi's only spent around 20 million

[worldly magnet]

So, like, if the guns aren’t all releasing at the same time in Season 1, does that mean they’re not gonna be in the battlepass?

[torn ermine]

Business people, regardless

[coral lintel]

my theory is there will two battle passes. A free one for everyone and then a "Pro" BP that's paid

[willow lance]

I think guns will be unlockable with assignments regardless of battlepass, BP will be purely cosmetic

[coral lintel]

the wording on the Phantom Edition BP token is very weird.

[torn ermine]

They also gunna use AI to make the skins

[spark drift]

aslong as they look good who cares

[torn ermine]

Not the point

[thin nexus]

Did you buy the phantom edition?

[worldly magnet]

There was in 2042 too. But in that game the guns released in the season were in the free battlepass. But since some guns come out on October 28, and the next set come out on November 18, they can’t all be in the same season pass.

[coral lintel]

not yet, but I'm thinking about it, I don't want to preorder just yet

[torn ermine]

Point being taking away jobs and money from programmers and artists, we are really fast tracking into a WallE world

[spark drift]

i mean why should they spend more money then they need to ?

[torn ermine]

Lmaoooo you are the problem

[coral lintel]

yesterday I have Claude Code vibe code a companion macos application in 1 hour. It's like 3500 lines of code. I gave it detailed requirements and it nailed it first try, while I worked on the API endpoints.

[torn ermine]

That kinda mentality right there

[coral lintel]

it's happening already

[spark drift]

so you want them to spend more money just because ?

if they can get it done cheaper and faster with ai dont see a reason to not use it

[raw karma]

they stated they would be releasing new content monthly

[low spade]

Until it directly copies someone elses art (it will and has) and they get sued for millions instead of just paying some artist like 50000/yr lol

[coral lintel]

My issue with this mentality about creative spaces being AI is look at the COD skins. They were generated with AI and some of them are TERRIBLE

[torn ermine]

This man out here advocating for AI lol

[lucid mist]

bro works for EA

[willow lance]

most of them*

[spark drift]

Yea, one of the first things i said is aslong as the look good

[coral lintel]

there are some things I don't think AI will ever be good at. Creativity is one of them, it's great at copying work but that only goes so far.

[torn ermine]

As long as my AI girlfriend is real enough...

[spark drift]

to be fair they are already trying to make robots like that

[coral lintel]

https://tenor.com/view/dont-date-robots-monrobot-futurama-gif-14829455

[torn ermine]

Space Cadet is a real Space Cadet lmao

[lucid mist]

AI can't be creative because it's inherently designed to follow patterns to fulfill the requests of the user. It can't come up with it's own ideas because all it's ever known is other peoples ideas

[worldly magnet]

Yeah. But they’re not doing a new season monthly. Season 1 is the first 3 content releases.

[acoustic plume]

Space Cadet by Gunna is a fantastic song

[ivory haven]

Season 1 is Oct-Dec

[coral lintel]

I mean you could say the same thing as us. Technically all we know is our brain maps pathways based of previous experiences. It's not really that different than how neural nets work with attention and weights. However somehow we're creative and AI is not.

I don't believe in god but clearly there is some organic randomness that makes us human I don't believe AI can copy.

[worldly magnet]

I know. I’m saying they’ve gotta switch to assignments for the seasonal gun unlocks instead of them being in the season pass. Because they’re being dripfed. Unless it’s just gonna be the first set in the pass, and second set assignments. Which would make no sense.

[torn ermine]

The more we lean into AI slop, the farther we distance ourselves from real skill and then leaving computers to do all our thinking for us? Just invent Skynet already and get it over with

[lucid mist]

the overuse of AI in schools for example is a consequence of the system itself rather then AI.

AI is just a shortcut for an already useless learning methodology

[coral lintel]

we're absolutely going to be dripfed, they already showed there will be "events" to keep us intrigued. Like the new york snow map that's limited.

This is how games work, they need you to playing so you buy skins

[thin nexus]

So do you think we should keep ai technology or trash the entire concept of ai?

[worldly magnet]

I know. That’s not what I’m saying

[lucid mist]

I'd rather that then 20 dollar DLC every few months

[lucid mist]

cats already out of the bag, we can't just trash AI

[coral lintel]

honestly, I use AI for my job every day and I honestly wish we could completely forget AI ever existed and backtrack 4 years.

however it's never going to happen so adapt or die

[torn ermine]

^

[lucid mist]

the world will change and so will we, it happened with the internet it happened with the telegraph it happened with paper

[spark drift]

now that sora 2 can make short anime that will be something to see

[thin nexus]

I agree the popularized use of ai is horrendous devolving our brains. But could it also be a technological advancement maybe lean into learning more about medicine, and what not

[torn ermine]

I know but this kinda change is insane compaired to the rest of human history

[lucid mist]

I don't necesarily think so

[torn ermine]

I just want a fucking Total Recall future already, waiting for big corps to truely own the earth and run everything

[lucid mist]

everything is "massive" at the time because theres nothing like it beforehand

[worldly magnet]

The ONLY AI I find intriguing is using it to voice NPC’s that the player can interact with using voice.

[torn ermine]

Thats what they want

[lucid mist]

in retrospect all of these crazy inventions seem normal to us

[old siren]

They should add M21 SWS sniper rifle in BF6 and btw that gun is still being use today

[coral lintel]

AI will save billions through medical research, and then promptly starve them to death when unemployement hits 50%

[lucid mist]

unemployment will not hit 50% because if that happens you have way bigger problems then unemployment

[coral lintel]

we will see. However the US especially is going to be hit hard. The US doesn't really make anything, they are a service based industry.

What happens when Oracle, SF, Microsoft, Google, Apple, etc lay off 50% of their workforce.
Sora 6 or whatever kills Hollywood, and Netflix.
ChatGPT eliminates Lawyers, and clerks

[lucid mist]

the US in general is kind of screwed in the near-future

[coral lintel]

AI is coming for the highest paying jobs in every industry

[lucid mist]

I dont think the country is going to collapse like doomers say it will but I think we're heading towards a post-colonial spain situation

[coral lintel]

It's not only going to be the US, I was using it as one example of an extremely service based country. Everyone is going to be effected.

[lucid mist]

massive downsizing and a lot of internal conflict before we settle back into a much smaller version of our former selves

[ivory haven]

BF6 getting closer by the seconds, minutes, hours

[coral lintel]

I tried to play 2042, and couldn't. I'm tier 60 I've lost the will to play

it's not a bad game I don't understand why I hate it so much lol

[balmy root]

glad i got it done early cause i need a break from games til bf6 lol

[ivory haven]

I haven’t gotten there yet.
Servers was all messed up

[lucid mist]

my last 2042 game was 100 revives and 282 heals and I thought that was a good place to end it off

[coral lintel]

I think it's the maps, so many are truly horrific.

[ivory haven]

I only play one map really in Portal to grind.

[fleet belfry]

I like ai bc I don't have to think or spend a lot of time looking for an answer.

[lucid mist]

lol

[thin nexus]

Your brain is deformed?

[coral lintel]

Exposure, Spearhead, Breakaway

[lucid mist]

you say this as if it isn't the natural order for people to be lazy and find shortcuts

[coral lintel]

I just can't ... and I can only play Iwa Jima so many times.

[ivory haven]

The indoor map in Scotland for 2042 is the only one I play since I can grind out xp easier without vehicles

[fleet belfry]

Hold on. Need to ask ai

[thin nexus]

Eastwood looks like it could be a decent map. I prefer the infantry based maps lol

[coral lintel]

Redacted? lmao nades everywhere

[ivory haven]

Yeah that XD

[ivory haven]

I want the oil

[thin nexus]

Oil seems nice I get to harbor oil mid war

[coral lintel]

everyone who has played Mirak Valley has said it's an instant classic

[ivory haven]

Eastwood is meh to me since I have to deal with it irl

[coral lintel]

a beautiful map, I'm excited for that one. I'm also excited for Manhattan.

[thin nexus]

The snow ones

[ivory haven]

See the New York City maps I am fine with the atmosphere since I have never been but the battle royal and Eastwood? Eh that is just home lol

[coral lintel]

the snow map on 2042, whoever designed it should be fired.

breakaway

[thin nexus]

I will say the one thing concerning me if I could get clarity the gun under the battlepick ups. wtf is that

[coral lintel]

oh man battlepickups is LEGENDARY, total chaos

[ivory haven]

I think it’s the rail gun or some sort someone said

[coral lintel]

an insanely OP gun is dropped somewhere on the map with limited ammo

watching everyone fight over it is chaos, it's fanastic, totally changes the game when it happens

[thin nexus]

The phantom bow was also a pickup but you got to keep it. Will it be like that again or do we even know

[coral lintel]

we don't know however I'm guessing it won't be like that, at least at launch how it's worded

[ivory haven]

I wish the cattleman from BF1 can just be a free sidearm for BF6

[worldly magnet]

I doubt it’ll be like the bow

[coral lintel]

my guess is it'll be like the flamethrower in BF5 and such, where it's just a one and done fun thing

[thin nexus]

I do hope we get the bow back or atleast a crossbow

[worldly magnet]

The bow was only a drop like that because of the community map thing. It was a thank you for helping create the map.

(And it fucked over people who worked hard to unlock it.)

[coral lintel]

I'm personally hoping for BF6 battledrops we get a railgun that 1 hits tanks

[worldly magnet]

Buuutt. In 4’s case. I understand it.

[thin nexus]

Different colored smokes need to be a thing lolll

[ivory haven]

lol it’s the Tank Hunter from BF1

[willow lance]

PUT IT BACK!
https://youtu.be/wmJu0JbyJI0

[coral lintel]

this guy gets it... I want to watch every tank in the area piss their pants in fear when it's dropped lol

[worldly magnet]

At least my Peacekeeper is still rare.

[ivory haven]

I want the Peacekeeper for BF6. The cattleman would be a unique sidearm to earn for the modern setting

[coral lintel]

I heard there's a minigun in the BF BR

I'd like to see that as a drop too

[ivory haven]

👀
Don’t say such things

[worldly magnet]

I mean they did an EE gun for 2042 but it’s kinda ass.

[coral lintel]

longest 10 days of our lives 😭

[ivory haven]

If a mini-gun is in the Battle Royal I will try to find it

[worldly magnet]

It’s not really unique. Has no cool animations. And it outclassed by like everything. Plus people just glitch unlocked it.

[willow lance]

I want Turcotte or Malkov in BF6 ngl

[thin nexus]

Wonder what kind of glitches will be

[willow lance]

We're already getting a railgun, might as well get some futuristic SMGs too

[lucid mist]

nah the gimmick is the underbarrel launcher which is unique

[coral lintel]

as long as it either stays in BR or are exclusive battledrops I'm ok with whatever.

[worldly magnet]

It’s not great though. It has insane spread on it.

[lucid mist]

its basically a mega smoke noob tube for falck

[ivory haven]

Also one of the Smgs for BF6 is being used in BO7

[coral lintel]

ew. they can keep it.

[dense sapphire]

Real quick. I pre ordered the game back in August, Microsoft just now charged me for it again. This happen to anyone else?

[ivory haven]

Yeah it’s funny how similar the guns are

[worldly magnet]

Ooo. I’ll check my bank.

But they did say we’d be charged closer to launch

[coral lintel]

interesting

[ivory haven]

Pre-ordering a game, you get charged closer to release

That is how it should work

[coral lintel]

I still haven't decided where to buy BF

[dense sapphire]

Weird. I’ve pre ordered before and when I click check out is when I get charged.

[willow lance]

Steam so EA gets less money

[coral lintel]

all my other BF games are in EA.... however Microsoft's play anywhere feature is really awesome.... But Steam is Steam 🙁

[worldly magnet]

Yeah I got an email saying I was charged.

[willow lance]

I don't think it's available on Xbox, at least not for PC

[dense sapphire]

Jump scared with that charge out of nowhere is fun

[worldly magnet]

Seems today is the day for Xbox preorder charges

[coral lintel]

BF6 isn't available on EA? Pretty sure it is lol

[ivory haven]

Yeah a surprised email

[dense sapphire]

I didn’t get an email

[worldly magnet]

Really? I got one from the MS store saying a transaction was completed.

[coral lintel]

I thought if you buy for Xbox you can play it on PC

or am I wrong? That's how MS new play anywhere thing is working?

[fleet belfry]

If you have ea play, you get $10 off

[willow lance]

Not sure, there is no PC page for it

[normal echo]

anyone know if this title supports dolby vision?

[worldly magnet]

(And you can cancel it and choose to get a refund for the subscription if you do it soon enough after subbing. But you didn’t hear that from me)

[coral lintel]

if you have bing rewards just redeem for a free month

[worldly magnet]

Either way. Free discount

Got the phantom edition for $90. Ill take it

[coral lintel]

noice

will probably also pickup the phantom edition so I can say other than the PS exclusive skin. I'll at least start BF6 with all available skins

less chance I buy more when they hit the store.

[ivory haven]

Mostly likely just gonna get the normal one. Don’t need all that other stuff. But either way the battlefield is there

[worldly magnet]

Only thing I’m missing from promotional unlocks is that one sticker from the beta challenges. Idr what the challenge was but idgaf about stickers I’m never gonna use them.

[fleet belfry]

Wifey got up to go to bed, told her that a friend came to visit. Where? Behind you. Bear cub was standing at the deck door. Oh! Want me to let him in?

[worldly magnet]

Wat

[coral lintel]

it really depends if they drop more info about this "BF pro token".

this is the debate I'm having. Is it just one BP or two? What's in both BPs? If there is a free and pro BP, I'll probably just get the regular game.

[ivory haven]

I am glad I got all the beta challenges done so I have those bat dog tags, but for skins meh. I am going for the ones in 2042 but really I am not too picky about them

[eager ore]

I just noticed
BF mocked COD skins in the beginning of the live action trailer

💀 That's crazy! By far the best trailer for a game I've seen in years

[worldly magnet]

I think the pro token is just free season 1 premium BP unlock

[coral lintel]

I don't think they mocked COD at all. I think they were dunking on 2042 operators

[willow lance]

Also specialists

[worldly magnet]

They did a similar thing in 2042. Except you got the first 4 season passes instead of 1.

[eager ore]

Gold gun, loads of attachments, crazy skins + weed skin. Idk seems like a mixture of both cod and bf to me xD

[ivory haven]

They are mocking hero shooter formula really. Yes it mocks COD but also mocks 2042.

[coral lintel]

have you seen 2042? Everyone is currently running around as a cyborg .....

[civic scarab]

Choosing the same song they used in mw2’s trailer was definitely deliberate

[eager ore]

^ this sums it up

I'm still so shocked I put over 100 hours into the beta 😭

[coral lintel]

bro.

[mint valley]

we're not getting downtown for season 1?

[ivory haven]

No. More likely season 2 or 3

[thin nexus]

are you okay??? oh my

[coral lintel]

manhattan is D1. Ice manhattan season 1

[mint valley]

aww

i was hoping to fight in los angeles

[coral lintel]

there's a super close quarters map you might like though

[ivory haven]

Well you are in Eastwood. That is a part of LA, it’s the Hollywood section

[normal echo]

I still feel like a very big mall would make for a fun map

[mint valley]

true, but i mean downtown

i wanna do gangster shit

[worldly magnet]

Ice Brooklyn*

[eager ore]

I did 2 24 hour long plays. A 16 hour then the rest I played normal few hours 😭 when beta ended I crashed for while. I just now recently recovered 😂

[mint valley]

i'll be pissed if we dont get machine pistols or smth

[civic scarab]

LA but no casinos in sight

[thin nexus]

glock18c

[mint valley]

that's good enough

[coral lintel]

you're basically describing siege of shanghai and it was alright

[thin nexus]

im psyched jus for the 2011

[eager ore]

Prep for Saudi Arabian takeover in 2027 😂

[spark drift]

oh how nice sora 2 just came out

[worldly magnet]

Yeah but Westwood looks to be using the same assets as the Br map. Which has insane destruction

[coral lintel]

BR destruction is basically confetti. It doesn't do damage like regular BF6 does

[worldly magnet]

Yeah but I think that’s still being worked on. And I meant the houses not the high rises you can drop

But they should add those high rises to some maps. Cause that shit is sickkk

[coral lintel]

I think Manhattan is 5-6 floors where you can go in every single floor. It's going to be awesome

[worldly magnet]

From the TGS gameplay of Manhattan Bridge. That map looks to have a shit load of destruction.

And it rules ass.

[ivory haven]

Heh, kinda funny that the battle royal map is LA/Hollywood section, yet you are suppose to find guns there XD

[coral lintel]

ya I'm very excited for that map, it's going to be action packed

[normal echo]

so opinions from the crowd: in the market for a new monitor to play this on should I get a 32in or a 27 inch? Seems the pixel density on the 27s is better, but 32s do have a lot more size them

[worldly magnet]

Gives me big Rotterdam from BFV vibes

[coral lintel]

32 is too big

[spark drift]

either go for a ultra wide aka 34 inches or just go for the 27

[coral lintel]

IMO 3 24 inch monitors is peak but 2 27 or 1 34 ultra is good too

[spark drift]

i have 1 34 and 2 27 inches on the sides

[normal echo]

dont think I can afford a 4k ultrawide, with any decent framerate XD

[coral lintel]

da fuck

are you an owl

[spark drift]

34 inch ultra wides are 3440x1440

[ivory haven]

Who

[coral lintel]

4k gaming is so overrated my man lol. Get a 1440 with high refresh rate.

[normal echo]

and ironically 32inch 4k monitors are ~$90 cheaper than the 27in ones atm

[coral lintel]

10/10 people will tell you 1440 140+ FPS is better than 4k at 60-90 FPS every single time.

[delicate quartz]

or just get 4k @ 160

[normal echo]

I'm not really worried about clearing 140fps at 4k

[coral lintel]

oh good, sell a kidney for a 5090

[normal echo]

i just dont have the monitor to display it atm

[civic scarab]

1440p with 0.5-1ms response and at minimum 240HZ is where life is at

[coral lintel]

32 inch monitors are ridiculous. I had one and got rid of it. It's too big.

it's exhausting looking at every corner, your eyes can't see that much

[neon gyro]

32" is minimum if u want to make use of 4k details

[coral lintel]

there is a reason film is 16:9 format. You want WIDE not TALL.

[hard ravine]

bro I just got a 1440p 32". its too big. I like 27

[thorny mist]

facts i have a samsung g6 OLED 360hz 0.03ms on it, its ridiculous

[thin nexus]

I’m content with my 240 27 1080

[hard ravine]

your brains arent seeing the difference between 144hz and 320

[thorny mist]

yeah you dont need anymore then that unless you want better pic quality

[normal echo]

since I got my new system in over the weekend, and discovered my old system's monitor is so old it can't even connect to the new one, I've been playing on a 43 inch tv...... legit neck pain having to physically turn when playing an fps right now XD

[thorny mist]

i can, have you ever used a 360hz monitor?

[coral lintel]

ya it's awful, monitor height bad, wide FTW

[neon gyro]

even if ur pc cant run 4k 144 u can always play games at a lower resolutions and make use of the 4k for watching youtube and other content

[coral lintel]

unless you're in Excel, or Visual studio. I see absolutely no reason for 99% of people to use 4k, especially on windows since their scaling is so terrible.

if you had a mac, I could argue, their scaling is actually good.

[hard ravine]

i ride motocross going 50mph watching ruts and theres nothing my eyes see more with 144hz+

[coral lintel]

it's like people who complain about lossless audio from their airpods 🤡

[hard ravine]

its just not happening, you might feel like it,. but you're not noticing any different]

[civic scarab]

If I’m getting 4K it’s gonna be a big tv that I’ll put in a media room

[thorny mist]

you are factually wrong tho is what im saying, might not be as big of a differnece from 60hz-144hz but there is a difference

[normal echo]

ended up taking my bedroom's tv until I get a monitor in.... wife aggro level been rising daily from lack of tv in bed at night XD

[hard ravine]

I think the biggest thing you can notice is stability

[thorny mist]

and smoothness, responsiveness, also depends on how good your eye sight is

[coral lintel]

bud it's dimminishing returns, we aren't saying there isn't ANY difference. We're saying the difference is not noticeable in anything but extreme situations.

anything after 144hz is EXACTLY the same argument Steve Jobs made with 300 ppi on phones. Anything after 300 ppi is for people who want to brag about specs. Our eyes simply cannot distinguish.

if you're doing a side by side comparison, in the dark. squinting. Sure there's a small difference. However it does not effect game play or visuals lol

[thorny mist]

you can tho is what im saying, there are differneces that you can see depending on the hz, thats how it works

[civic scarab]

I usually just balance the frames for resolution.

Higher resolution, lower frames and vice versa. The only exception would be 1440p if you have a good system.

[thorny mist]

not fully true, in faster paced games where you are using the refresh rate you can see the difference

[coral lintel]

wow I'm insanely jealous https://www.reddit.com/r/Battlefield/comments/1nuygci/exclusive_reward_quietly_handed_out_at_tokyo_game/

[civic scarab]

You can find it being sold on eBay if you REALLY want it. They’re selling for what you can sort of expect.

Around $60-100

[junior spire]

Will there be a battlepass

[grave cosmos]

sadly yes

[junior spire]

Well what r u going to progress

[honest otter]

what’s the last one without battle pass now

[junior spire]

there’s no camo grind , there’s no cosmetics to grind for

[honest otter]

haven’t we had that for a decade+ now

[fresh snow]

Not as much as one would expect

[junior spire]

5

[honest otter]

Wow 5 decades

[junior spire]

Battlefield 5*

[honest otter]

can’t believe it’s been 50 years

[grave cosmos]

I don’t understand that question

I just play game

[junior spire]

what else are u going to grind for

[grave cosmos]

[junior spire]

[grave cosmos]

I’m just gonna play and that’s all

[junior spire]

retention and money is what they want

[grave cosmos]

yea it is what it is

Don’t really grind in games

[junior spire]

[grave cosmos]

Yea

[fresh snow]

Cannot be me, I play war thunder too much

[coarse breach]

IT'S LAUNCH MONTH, FUCKOS

[fresh snow]

Yessir, 9 more days 🙏

[coarse breach]

DUNDUN DUN DUNDUN DUN

[fresh snow]

These Japanese dog tags, might cop myself a code if the missus doesn’t mind lmfao

I like being a completionist for these early items

23 bucks for it? I paid nearly the same price giving out early access codes lol

[scenic sleet]

do you think COD will even come close in sales (to BF6)?

[grave cosmos]

Probably yea

[fresh snow]

100% it’s cod, lost a nice chunk of people but CODtubers and 9-year olds plus stoners still need their brain rot game

[grave cosmos]

Tho cod would need to make a truly awful setting for it to go down

[wheat cairn]

Where’s my day 1s gang 😞

[willow lance]

COD will most likely still outsell BF

[wheat cairn]

More than likely ^

[hard ravine]

because society is crappy

[sour copper]

No we aren't.

[tired yarrow]

It is but I tend to live by the simple rule of love family, love friends, love my neighbour (the one next door) if we all did that, the world would be a better place, period.

[stable remnant]

What's your neighbours name

[marble depot]

the question should be the other way around

[dark radish]

if you mean bf6 to BO7? then bf6 will crush them

[marble depot]

😭 in what world bro

[tired yarrow]

Michael. He’s an old boy, I help him where I can, he lost his wife a few years ago.

Small things like helping take out his bins, asking if he needs anything taking to the tip etc

Small acts of kindness can change the world.

If not for everyone, then atleast for one.

[unique arrow]

the real hunt will begin on 10th

[lean imp]

Itll launch after work for me so No need

[lean imp]

Hunting tanks with Sledgehammers

[plush fox]

Lucky haha

Do I play campaign first or go straight to mp

[toxic ridge]

@zenith wind Listen bro

[unique arrow]

i go straight to MP coz i wanna grind soemthing medals, ribbons, levels, guns, etc and then after 28th oct season 1 starts so im ready

[plush fox]

I wish they early release campaign

[plush fox]

Yeah I might just do that also

[zenith wind]

I did something crazy, and I preordered BF6

[plush fox]

Did they mention what the highest level u can go to

[lean imp]

Well if theres nothing unlockable in singleplayer, I guess No need

Based off the reception the campaign dont even look that good

Buggy asf

[zenith wind]

500?

[unique arrow]

yeah that will keep me in grind

[plush fox]

Yeah I heard it’s very buggy

[unique arrow]

nah we dont know that

[plush fox]

I’m not sure

[unique arrow]

i pre ordered after first beta phantom edition lol

[plush fox]

Bf2042 was S999

[zenith wind]

ew

[plush fox]

Lmao

[zenith wind]

Ranks should not pass 100, that's my take

[plush fox]

Yeah surprised they haven’t mentioned anything about ranks

[lean imp]

They changed the skins but it’s not that bad

Still bummed quad nods are gone now for the exclusive skin

[unique arrow]

150 would be cool with those medals like in BF3-4

[viral cobalt]

ofc

[plush fox]

I’m assuming the br will come in November

[zenith wind]

100 colonel should be max rank

[unique arrow]

well its not about style of the skins for me, but after beta it was first game after long time that i had fun with.. so i wanna give it 100%

[toxic ridge]

@zenith wind Bro I'm sorry what did I do tho 😭

[viral cobalt]

haha

[plush fox]

I pre ordered regular edition but now I wish I did the phantom edition

[lean imp]

Where did you preorder/what platform

[unique arrow]

i think you can refund it and buy it agaimn

[zenith wind]

Never diss super earth

[toxic ridge]

Bro I never dissed Helldivers. You misunderstood gng dm me

[plush fox]

Bought it on ps store

[lean imp]

Digital or disc

[toxic ridge]

@zenith wind I LOVE HELLDIVERS BRO WTH DM ME

[plush fox]

Digital

[lean imp]

I think you can refund it then buy the Phantom edition

[plush fox]

Ok lemme see what I can do

[lean imp]

Yeah hopefully it wont take long to get refunded

With Steam and EA Play it’s fast

[dry depot]

Hey everyone! Is it worth pre ordering or no?

[plush fox]

Yeah I hope not

[unique arrow]

depends on what you think, most of us pre ordered

[lean imp]

I think it is if you’re sold on the MP, because Campaign is buggy unfinished mess (looks like it needs a few more months)

[unique arrow]

i dont like the campaign will have only 9 missions.. i was expecting something longer but im here mostly for MP and grind like good old days in BF4

[frozen thorn]

The campaign just had to be serviceable, idk why that first studio took an entire year spitballing ideas

[urban turret]

You can upgrade it

[plush fox]

I tried but it’s still showing the regular price for phantom edition

[copper sierra]

I have absolutely no idea about the battle pass. What will it include? Just cosmetics, or also weapons/vehicles?

[toxic ridge]

Can anyone gift me a game on steam in this autumn sale?

[frozen thorn]

How does Bad Rats sound

[blazing moon]

I mean the weapons are guaranteed in season 1 with their post but I’m also confused if they’ll be in the battle pass. I think the weapons may be earned through challenges then the battle pass as cosmetics

But I’d rather have the weapons and the vehicle in the battle pass

[toxic ridge]

A game of my choice 😭

[neon gyro]

game changing stuff like weapons should never be in a battle pass

[zenith wind]

Agreed

[frozen thorn]

Wait what? I was about to give away Assassins Creed Shadows, but with that kind of greed, forget it buddy.

[toxic ridge]

Gng u guys mess alot wth 😭😭. I'll take ac shadows any day

I'm not greedy man 😔

#Battlefield6 currently has no animation to remove the 'safety pin' when the character throwing a grenade. David Sirlands says they will look into the pins eventually, as it's a detail feeling off.

@BattlefieldNET @yanambell @DRUNKKZ3 If this was the biggest complaint from TGS I'm happy! Will look into the pins eventually, its a detail feeling off. We want the throws to be useful, quickly - since grenades are not super powerful (no spam pls) they need to compensate w speed

[light maple]

Does lunching bf6 from steam require opening EA app like other bf games or its different?

[runic venture]

No

[light maple]

Thank god
So it’s like the beta

[distant pendant]

Yes

[dry depot]

Thanks!

[dry depot]

Thanks!

[marble nebula]

Hey, I have a quick question.
If I completed the beta and free pass tasks from 2042 on the EA platform, will I get all those rewards in BF6 purchased on Steam?

[cunning marten]

If you use the same EA account, should do I think

[marble nebula]

Thank God, I was already stressed out that I had to have a copy of the game on EA

TY

[unique arrow]

i did all rewards, twitch drops, BF2042 pass, and beta challenges i think my dedication to BF6 is real

[tepid grail]

Any pre order bonuses for getting the standard edition?

[ebon crater]

how do you know it's "most"?...

[unique arrow]

everybody talking like that..

[neon gyro]

yes

Pre-purchase Battlefield 6 Standard Edition and get the Tombstone Pack
Gravedigger Soldier Skin
“Fallen Heroes” Player Card
“Bandolier” Weapon Charm
“Express Delivery” Weapon Sticker
“Hatchet” L110 Weapon Package
“Doomsayer” Soldier Patch
Tombstone XP Boost Set

[native lantern]

Yeah me too i just didnt get the 2042 pass to hard to even run this game

[hallow geode]

Season 1 begins weeks before BO7 even launches the base game. They know exactly what they doing 😎 🔥

[unique arrow]

28th oct

[hallow geode]

and BO7 releases 14th Nov

[slate steppe]

Thombstone is the pre order reward from base and phantom pack

[lean imp]

It’s easy with the xp farm servers

[cunning marten]

Do I get BF6 on PS5 or PC? Why?

[tall zinc]

why ask here? just get it on whatever you play the most

[frozen thorn]

People dont want to think for themselves

[unique arrow]

depends on you, i got good PC and never coming back to console.. PC so much better in everything

[cunning marten]

Im bored and thought Id ask, not that deep

[thick storm]

You have all 3? Rich boy...

[cunning marten]

Nah just the two, sold the xbox after I got my PC, seemed silly to have both!

[thick storm]

Id get it on PC then

[tidal hound]

Get it on console so you can blame every death on a PC cheater

[cunning marten]

Very valid point tbf

[urban turret]

In Portal, will there be admin rights? Such as banning people?

[lean imp]

What about Cronus users

[tepid grail]

Can't wait to play bf6 on ultra low settings

[thick storm]

Theyre glassing cronus users

[cunning marten]

it looks decent even on low end PCs! Well, the beta did, some dude was running it without a gpu

[lean imp]

Well hopefully it’s 30 fps

[hallow geode]

Idk if I can give you a definitive reason on which to play, but I'll tell you why I chose PS5. I just wanna sit back on a couch sometimes and chill. I don't wanna have to worry about upgrading parts and troubleshooting various things. Also I like to bring my console into the living room from time to time to show friends games on the tv. PC is not flexible enough for me

[tepid grail]

Get it on pc because console players will be forced to play with PC gamers

just got to get ahead of the curve...

[cunning marten]

thanks for your answer! console is easier, 100%!

[lean imp]

I play on a laptop and Steam deck theres nothing more portable than those for me

[inner escarp]

Hello, I have an update for BF 6. Can we play the games?

[tepid grail]

Back on beta i got 50fps
Looks pretty nice on low setting too (no cope)

[lean imp]

Thats great

[cunning marten]

ah man, I hope they at least try and seperate KBM and controller players a bit, unfair match up either way you look at it

[indigo marsh]

Preordered bf6 on my ps5 pro and pc! So excited

[frozen thorn]

I got a gaming laptop and its been great

[lean imp]

Consoles players got that aim assist

[tepid grail]

ye i dont know why games these days are allergic to PS/Xbox crossplatform these days

[hallow geode]

yeah steam deck sounds neat. Been considering that and maybe a switch 2 one day

[cunning marten]

Yep, but the cracked PC players with KBM may as well be using aimbots, as I say, either way, its best they are seperate!

[frozen thorn]

People keep telling me a gaming laptop is a bad idea but ive had it for almost 5 years and its been just what i need

[lean imp]

Yup true

I Will probably just play on portal anyway

[cunning marten]

What have you got? Always wanted a gaming laptop even though I have no need for one 😅

[hallow geode]

I imagine they've probably improved a fair bit since like 10 years ago?

[lean imp]

It’s not upgradeable that much and more expensive but the portability is what matters for me

[analog relic]

Consoles got slower reticle movement when aiming on target which isn't really that big of an assist

[frozen thorn]

Asus Rog Zephyrus 14. I needed it for school/work at the time and it didnt make sense to get a dedicated rig since i was hardly gaming yet

[cunning marten]

https://tenor.com/view/pout-kiss-blowing-a-kiss-suspense-christian-bale-gif-16931550113965916217

[lean imp]

I can play even on vacations and at work, during break time

[frozen thorn]

I play Cyberpunk on ultra at 45 fps

[cunning marten]

Seriously?? Thats mad, what resolution?

[frozen thorn]

1080p lmao

[cunning marten]

thats all you need for a laptop screen, thats decent!

[frozen thorn]

😉

[hallow geode]

Hey I have a 4K Oled and I still use a 1080p monitor when I'm gaming in my room on PS5 lmao

I don't feel the need to upgrade to 4K unless it's a big screen

[frozen thorn]

I got it hooked up to a monitor and fans. I take it downstairs for gaming or movies with friends. Also good for travel since I just bring my PS4 controller too

[cunning marten]

I want a 4k oled so bad, gotta make do with 1440p for now 🥺

[hallow geode]

also I guess PC players will hunch closer to their monitor typically so higher res makes sense

[analog relic]

4K for Gaming... idk. I bought a 1440p Oled recently, I'd rather play with higher frames than 4K res.

[frozen thorn]

I grew up watching 240p vids on youtube with a dial up connection. I have whats called gratitude. I am built different

[hallow geode]

it's wild when I play in my room for a week then just suddenly switch to the oled for a day. It's like I just stepped into the gates of heaven

[unique arrow]

those were the best times of my life

[neon gyro]

4k 144 is easily doable these days on a modern gpu, especially with frame gen

[cunning marten]

Tbf, I want any OLED, ive got some gimmicky quantum dot wannabe oled

[hallow geode]

I played red dead 2 on my 1080p monitor for first playthrough. Then I played the 2nd playthrough on the oled and it was an out of body experience

[cunning marten]

I gotta try that one day

[analog relic]

Oh Ok. But yes, my main is OLED, and the second is also a gimmicky Quantum Dot IPS screen. And honestly? I played an HDR Movie and placed it between the 2 screens, did I see a difference yes, was it huge? no 🤷‍♂️

[tidal hound]

As long as it's not a UE5 game, MH or Borderlands, right?

[frozen thorn]

I got a decade old smart tv that i used to connect my laptop too. Had that plus a wireless kbm. My armrest was wide enough for the mouse to use as a mousepad. Was a great setup using the internet on a big tv. Sucks that the tv goitches out every hour and i need to restart it. Paid $200 to fix it and it worked for a year and a half then started again. Probably not worth it to fix again or get a new one

[cunning marten]

That makes me feel slightly better, thank you!

[analog relic]

now the difference between my old 1080 144Hz VA Panel and the 1440p Oled on 360Hz was huge, it definitely was like I just stepped into the gates of heaven 😂

[frozen thorn]

I visited family a few years ago and got to play rdr2 on a 72 in screen. I think i caused my step dad to have a mini stroke since he refused to believe this is what video games look like now

I feel like the future just stared down his soul, he was just in awe and disbelief

[hallow geode]

Lol when I did my 2nd playthrough on the 77 oled my dad was there for the entire playthrough. I would only continue when he was around to watch it. His love for westerns is through the roof. Every day we weren't playing it he'd always talk about the things he wants to do next in the game. Seeing it through his eyes was cool cos he lives and breathes western movies

The game also made him get too fixated on graphics from then on tho. Every time I show him a game that has noticeably worse graphics than red dead 2 he's like "Is this an old game? graphics don't look too great" and it's usually a game that just came out 🤣

[frozen thorn]

My mom and i spent 2 hours playing dominoes at the camp. Was a genuine memory I will hold dear for the rest of my life unironically.

5 minutes later I shot a rabbit then skinned it and she freaked the fug out. Lmao, I made have made then ruined her night

[frozen thorn]

Hes got rhe heart of a gamer now. Hopefully he doesn't have the legs of a gamer

[hallow geode]

My mum ain't into video games as most mum's born before 1990 aren't but her jaw is always on the floor whenever I show her a new game on the oled

[hard ravine]

I been staying at my mom's since I broke my foot. When playing into The Radius 2 on VR I'll stream it to the living room TV, she screams "OVER THERE!" all the time lol

[hallow geode]

Yeah I can get my mum to play VR and car games. That's always fun 🤣

Just played L.A Noire VR for the first time last month

[frozen thorn]

Get her to play Blade and Sorcery

[hard ravine]

I'll have to look into that. It's just funny cause she screams and points like I can see what she's pointing at from the other room XD

[hallow geode]

The immersion can really change a person 🤣

[hard ravine]

Dude Into The Radius 2, actually getting to play with the guns is next level. I know how to fully use guns I would otherwise never have known at all from VR lol

[urban veldt]

Pretty sure "just" has a term thats for present not past.

[hallow geode]

L.A Noire also has plenty of shooting and it's awesome. Also has driving too. Watching my mum go 100mph screaming through L.A traffic and forgetting to turn the police siren off was a sight to behold

[tight prism]

Soon guys in a couple days Battlefield 6 will be here

[velvet kayak]

9 days

[frozen thorn]

Dang, gonna miss the calm before the storm in this channel pre launch. Tomorrow is another day for banter, arguing, and petty insults. Gonna be a good time.
Night yall

[tight prism]

Very soon man I can't wait I'm so pumped

[velvet kayak]

Yep, me too

[narrow oyster]

Hey all, i couldn't find any news of the preload being available on steam

do yall know if they'll do a preload even on steam? i mean, i would guess that it'd be the case, but idk

cause on the ea app/ps5 there's clear info on that

[tight prism]

Are we gonna have a hardcore mode on release???

[narrow oyster]

but i couldn't find any info on steam, maybe i'm just dumb lol

[narrow oyster]

official who knows, portal for sure tho

[tight prism]

I thought I read portable wasn’t going to be ready on release…

[narrow oyster]

i remember that they were talking about it tho

[narrow oyster]

the br isn't on release. But releasing without portal would be a great mistake, so I doubt it

[tight prism]

Agreed. The beta was fun, I just hope they have hardcore mode & bigger maps & way more armor!!!!

[hallow geode]

No they said it will receive many updates and improvements after release

still coming with launch

[cunning marten]

Will portal be big? It seems cool, but I can just imagine everyone wanting to stick to conquest on proper maps, i dunno

[tight prism]

So it will be ready on release? Just not full potential yet. lol

[cunning marten]

If they release a half baked portal, it will be a ghost town

[hallow geode]

Someone made a good point a few weeks ago. Portal should do what epicgames do with fortnite's version of portal. Pay people to make creations

[urban veldt]

Ghost you say?

[tight prism]

I just need hardcore mode on release!!! That’s all I care about!! And being able to play with a full team of 30 friends!!! If we have to rejoin every game that’s gonna be lame!!!!

[narrow oyster]

doesn't seem that portal is half baked atm

[wary ember]

Just pre-ordered the battlefield 6 phantom edition

[narrow oyster]

gggs

[hallow geode]

Portal will allow for some wildly complex creations, but a lot of people aren't gonna invest that kind of time and talent into it without an incentive like fortnite has

[cunning marten]

That could be cool, we could get some epic creations. Curious to see how it all works, most things made by community will just be shite, there will be some gems, but how will they get traction

[urban veldt]

You NEVER pre-order ANYTHING.

[narrow oyster]

so you expect ea to give away their hard earned money? /s

[runic venture]

This is wrong, counter-strike as an example proves this wrong alone

[cunning marten]

I agreed entirely until I played the beta, I folded like a soggy house of cards

[tight prism]

If we get player owned servers, we will have map rotations. We will try out new maps! If not, I’m not sure…

[tall zinc]

preload begins on the 3rd

[hallow geode]

Idk if counter strike is a good comparison here. That's like one of the top 5 most played games on the planet

[narrow oyster]

yea i know, but it'd be pre-loadable even on steam i hope

[runic venture]

And fortnite is also one of the most played games on the planet..

[narrow oyster]

i know it's a dumb question

[tall zinc]

yes steam can preload games (has been able to for eons)

[rancid crown]

forgot i had some money on my steam wallet, free discount on bf6

[hallow geode]

Yeah, not saying fortnite needs it at it's current state. But a game like battlefield would definitely need it because of it's massively lower playercount

[narrow oyster]

kinda new to steam and pc gaming in general, so i didn't know lol

[urban veldt]

Payback guaranted*

[wary ember]

Where can i post pictures?

[narrow oyster]

i was just worried cause i've seen screenshots of the ea app that states clearly the pre load date, and on steam I still see that 10th october release date and nothing else

[hallow geode]

Talent from fornite for example won't come over to make stuff in battlefield without an incentive. If battlefield gets a bigger population then yeah we could be looking at some epic creations. We'll see

[runic venture]

Battlefield 2 modding scene birthed games like Squad and modding tools has been requested for the longest time, dont underestimate the willingness to create

[hard ravine]

My nephew tried getting me to play Fortnite. I saw him have a dead ass shot on a guy then all the sudden there's a house built in 2 seconds... Now I have him hooked on PUBG. I don't really care for BRs anymore. But at least get him on a decent one lol

[cunning marten]

Will people be able to re-create some epic old BF maps on portal? Guess we could get some cool OG cod maps too

[hallow geode]

Maybe I'm just thinking about 2042. I don't even know how far people took that. I know it was very limited but I think I saw a cool mode in the first week then after that nothing

[tall zinc]

ziba tower is being remade in portal (it was being shown in the trailer) so yes

[hard ravine]

holy hel;l how it is almost 6am...

[cunning marten]

Nice

[runic venture]

2042 is very restrictive and you gotta be a real wizard to do anything outside of basic server configs, 6 portal is more akin to a proper modding tool with support for level edits which 2042 did not have

[hard ravine]

That's how it's looking anyway. I'm off work until December 1st. I might actually put some time into learning how to use it. Last time I modded anything besides some configs in Stalker Anomaly was wayyyyy back on Aliens vs Predator 2 in like, 2003. I'm sure stuff has to be a little more user friendly than Lithtech 20 some years ago lol

[runic venture]

You’d for instance never see dust 2 recreated in 2042 but it is in 6

[hallow geode]

Ya know what. I forget that people went wild in halo forge without being paid a dime and that was on console. I guess as long as plenty of people out there have the creative itch without the need to get paid then we're good

but it would probably be a nice bonus of extra talent if they did eventually add an incentive

[runic venture]

I think the only current incentive is if your mode is popular it can get featured in one of the 4 netflix squares we got as a main menu 🤷‍♂️

[cunning marten]

It would be so sick to make something and it appeared there, plenty of incentive! Imagine making something and you get the Don JackFrags making a video on it!

[velvet kayak]

I’m not sold on it, I like to invest time into learning maps and improving my game - with endless random maps, that goes out the window.

[rancid crown]

you greatly underestimate the power of a community

[hard ravine]

I'll probably just be sticking to regular closed classes HC mode unless Portal really is crazy good.

[rancid crown]

people will crank maps and game modes out on portal like there's no tomorrow

[fleet belfry]

Anyone remember the AIX2 mod for bf2? Project Reality?

[runic venture]

Just hope they bring out proper terrain manipulation in a timely manner, placing props is cool and all but real custom maps would be so sick

[fleet belfry]

Dice hired the modders they were so good

[wary ember]

Call Of duty is literally crying in corner after the live action trailer of battlefield 6

[fleet belfry]

If I can find the time, I'll try to port the maps over

[limber pond]

when is the BF6 discount event, and i don't know where to update the voucher information or related events

[wary ember]

Crying being over 250+ GB. lmao

Shitty game, i am praying for their downfall tbh

[fleet belfry]

I would say buy them out, but why?

[native raft]

The what

[zinc shadow]

am hoping that we get to preload bf6 on steam instead just waiting

don't think call of duty ever preloaded ANYTHING for bo6 updates on steam at all

[wary ember]

yea.

[runic venture]

300 GB space required, nuke kill streaks after 5 kills, wallhack scopes, robodoggo, wall jumping, 1 hit sniping across the map penetrating multiple walls with built in wall hack!!!1
CoD👏is👏so👏back👏

[wary ember]

Fortnite 2 basically.

[runic venture]

Idk fortnite is a kids game you install for free they dont know better. Cod players literally throw money away to play slop

[wary ember]

I agree.

Call of duty said they'll compress their game but no shit happened

There's no way they can compress over 350+ GB

Battlefield 6 will be the goat of all

[nimble cedar]

200 gb preloading the skin store

[nimble cedar]

I hope

[frank dust]

791,966 seconds remaining until Battlefield 6

[wary ember]

Can't wait.

[runic venture]

What about now

[wary ember]

where do y'all post pictures by the way.

[frank dust]

im not a bot chill out kid

im trying to figure out dinner

[runic venture]

Someone gotta tweak this clankers code he acting up

[quiet bloom]

Hello everyone, will there be early access or not for two or three days? Thank you in advance for your answers.

[runic venture]

No

Better than staying up till midnight and then playing all night tired

[honest lodge]

Release is 4pm in uk

8am PT

[long bolt]

im just going to wake up as normal and stomp all the zombies playing from early morning lol

[tidal hound]

By early I meant like 7-8am. Not waking up at 2am lol

[lament furnace]

It's gonna be early morning for me

[hallow geode]

I spent way too much time on 2042 that I guess I forgot if you give people the toolset they will always go nuts. It will be refreshing to see what the community comes up 🔥

[shadow palm]

So, for the preload I wanna use the hd version. My question is do I need both the base and hd version or can I just preload the hd version.

Some games you need the base version and then you can download the hd upgrade.

[runic venture]

Wake up early straight into 87k queue then back to sleep

[merry vector]

Im genuinely debating if i should go to school after bf6 releases. I could skip a day of school and stay home playing it

[tidal hound]

Give us time to make a coffee etc

Or pour a Monster energy drink into a coffee

[runic venture]

That sounds absolutely vile

[tidal hound]

Yeah but you'll have an irl aimbot

[runic venture]

If you manage to escape the heart attack

[long bolt]

No-Doz, just dont "hurt" your self

[toxic ridge]

Can anyone gift me a game on steam in this autumn sale? Please?

[frank dust]

I’m gonna go eat ramen

[worn marten]

But we need you, countdown man

[hallow geode]

Man I swear it was 10 days to go like 10 days ago. Time is just not moving from now on

[long bolt]

its like the bread toaster, the more you focus on it the longer it takes X)

[hallow geode]

forreal tho. I walk away and it's done too soon. I stand there and I turn 80

[worn marten]

You can buy something on the steam sale and play that until it launches

[native raft]

You already have plenty of free time and no responsibilities, don't skip school

[winter atlas]

Go to school, get sm0rt

[hallow geode]

BL4 got me covered 😎

[blazing galleon]

can we pre-download bf6 ?

[worn marten]

no

[split skiff]

[merry vector]

Yeah, that would be the smart solution. I am not smart

[native lantern]

Too long for me 🤣 i dont need that cosmetics so yeah i dont wanna spend time watching how support throw support bags every few seconds

9 days guys! Btw when i will be able to download bf6?

[frosty oracle]

i read on reddit it will 3 oct

[unique arrow]

yeah 3 oct

[native lantern]

Thanks man! See you on a battlefield!

[charred gate]

Is ea being sold going to effect the future of battlefield 6?

[dark owl]

@frank dust where are we?

[neon gyro]

6 no but possibly future games in a few years

[dawn cipher]

time will tell better, EA got into 20 Billions debt, new owners said that they will focus on AI to expand their goals so expect some huge amount of junk AI generated contents for future,

I've already cut my hope for Battlefield future, I take this one is best and last Battlefield game for me. farewell Battlefield owned by Electronic Arabia.. haha

[dark owl]

I just don't want the game to become a yearly release like cod

[fierce barn]

I'm glad EA sold

[charred gate]

It’s deal is gonna take action in 2027 no?

[dark owl]

the fact that the company was sold doesn't tell us much bout what will happen in the future

[dawn cipher]

New owners will prioritize the profit first, it's not like Sony buying Bungie or Microsoft buying Activision those are tech companies in same industry, now we've EA sold out to some oil business people who wna diversify their investments.

[charred gate]

Yea it’s probably gonna be a disaster

[unique arrow]

eh MODs? why was my massage removed. type me in DM.

[fierce barn]

Servers and the infostructure, i guess Battlefield 6 was their finale

[dark owl]

but wasn't EA doing exactly the same before being sold? Like, it's business, it has to generate profit

[dawn cipher]

I'm pretty sure everyone feels in a different ways and respect that but for me it looks like a nightmare, can't believe this is happening after EA making a comeback after centuries...

[fierce barn]

EA worldwide sold for 55 billion

[charred gate]

Yea it’s actually pretty sad

[dawn cipher]

Yeah but now it's becoming a private company. nobody knows in next coming years how many developers will stay or leaves for many different reasons, the EA as brand have lost it's reputation for me after getting purchased by PIF of KSA... last thing they could do was selling themselves to Saudis.

[fierce barn]

i wonder how it will impact games, this

[dawn cipher]

And it's a big leveraged deal with a $20 billion bank loan.

[dawn cipher]

There are several similiar cases like Savy group etc... Saudis buying studios then things fall apart or they abandoned it, I can't certainly predict but personally I'm expecting the worst to come especially for Battlefield, and everyone will going to miss these days so we better make sure to enjoy BF6 as much as we can and slowly say good bye to it.

[fierce barn]

yes indeed

[white moss]

It may still happen apparently but terrain editing itself might come later in the future. So you can forget Battleforge and say hello to Battlecry. I'd give a link but the server no like it

[dawn cipher]

nightmare man..... nightmare I'm yet trying to coup with frustration and sadness I feel about this, imagine failure after failure just as we get a decent Battlefield the publisher deciding to sell itself to some oil rich Saudis.
If it was like Microsoft, Sony or other tech companies expectations would've been different for me personally.

[tall zinc]

uh well sorry to say but Microsoft have been doing massive layoffs over the year

[pale wharf]

🏳️‍⚧️

[tall zinc]

Sony too

[dawn cipher]

EA new owners already said their focus on EA for future to come, so expect mass layoffs already...

[dawn cipher]

no, Sony after purchasing Bungie did their best to keep the veteran developers it was Pete making all layoffs.

[tall zinc]

? bro they did mass layoffs and closed countless studios

[dawn cipher]

If we take that to account EA is considered the mass murderer of studios

[tall zinc]

bend studios were literally hammered just in June I don't know where you get the idea they werent

[dawn cipher]

I can't remember the exact source, but they've been trying to extend their staff budgets, also if you look at Bungie now Pete is gone probably Sony put pressure on him. again comparing tech companies with public investment funds owners with no clue about the industry is not the same.

[tall zinc]

uh bungie doesn't exist anymore my guy they are being absorbed into playstation studios

[fierce barn]

I didn't like EA's management throughout the years and their lay offs with Staff

[white moss]

I really hope terrain editor comes later. D day landing forgotten hope mod style let's go

[tall zinc]

and idk why you are saying it would be any different under these companies that have and are continuing to do layoffs as we speak

[tall zinc]

they said they're experimenting with it currently

[dawn cipher]

They've said about doing it, but at least on piece of paper or publicly they still maintain a different website etc...

[tall zinc]

yeah cause that takes time but bungie doesn't exist anymore as a independent entity, it will finish next year

Sony already said during their last quarter that bungie will and are being absorbed

[white moss]

Definitely glad I got the PC version. Consoles while can play them can't make the custom maps.

Will marathon still have the made by Bungie logo pop up at start up though?

[tall zinc]

Tao also speaks about "the governance of Bungie" more widely, mentioning that following the "structural reform" announced last year, the studio's "independence is getting lighter, and Bungie is shifting into a role which is becoming more part of PlayStation Studios, and integration is proceeding."

This is described as "an ongoing process" in the long term, but "the direction [for Bungie] is to become part of PlayStation Studios."

[native raft]

I don't think marathon will have a startup screen considering it's never gonna release

[white moss]

Thought they were really far along

[dawn cipher]

Because regardless of the issue with layoffs those are still companies with experience in the industry, in my personal opinion the only winner of EA deal is the EA itself CEO; and some other shareholders in management will get away with good cash.
If new owners focus on AI as they're saying that they will to replace developers & cut costing I don't see any future.

[dawn cipher]

It's good thing that never happens, they put it in the shelves for centures, the demand for survival games are very low, they should just focus on Destiny 3 instead.

[fierce barn]

i have to make a decision to buy either the standard, or phantom BF6 edition

on PC that is

[dawn cipher]

and to speak of Destiny 3 if it ever happens.

[tall zinc]

well yeah those who win are the shareholders (exec suite), but the conclusion wouldnt change even if it was a different owner, EA is too big a entity for any other sort of company to manage under their ownership, hell they're just shy of ABK's valuation deal in terms of billions

[fierce barn]

the double xp i very much would like

[novel willow]

Question, I finished the bp in 2042 on PS5 but I'm planning to play BF6 on PC, can I still get the rewards or do I have to buy the PS5 version?

[tall zinc]

yes you can, the game has cross progression same as 2042

[proven granite]

I pre-ordered...

[short umbra]

Any BF6 clans currently recruiting?

[inland nymph]

Bungie is awful.

[white moss]

Which version you get?

[white moss]

Platoons needs to come back

[sand spear]

Is preordering the phantom edition a bad move if I really think the game has a chance

[wise cloak]

Interesting. Perhaps putting more emphasis on providing support instead of self healing Rambo play style that plagued medic classes of the past will help. Healing and replenishment are very powerful but at its most powerful when effecting multiple teammates. Providing suppressive fire support has become rather limited in its capabilities. Suppressive fire effected accuracy and blurred the screen in bf 6 it somewhat mitigates squad spawning and delays health regen that's it. I am glad support now has more use with healing and reviving compared to the support/engineer in bf1 and bf 5. As for open weapons I want to see how it plays out. I would much rather people use a weapon they are effective with apposed to a class/gadgets they do not utilize. Should be more team work focus this way.

[dawn cipher]

We're playing & have a good bunch known each others for years, if you want an invite send me a dm

[fiery quest]

does preorder gives us headstart to play? like a week before or something? i couldnt find anything related to this

[main palm]

It does not

[balmy peak]

Guys, unfortunately i must leave this place

[dark owl]

nope

[strong echo]

Ladies and gentlemen,

We have officially entered the month of October. This is it, the endgame is upon us, the final countdown begins today

This is the final boarding call for those who wanna get muted one last time lmao, u will be muted for 3 days landing around October 3, which happens to be the preload day, after October 3, I need y'all to lock in and stay focused

[crisp granite]

Hey guys, if I subscribe to EA Play Pro - can I play BF6 on the fullest?without having to buy the full game. Couldnt find anything regarding this question

[craggy tapir]

Aren’t we around 9 days and 2.5 hours away?

[tight prism]

pre-load has started!

[hallow geode]

🚨🚨B R E A K I N G 🚨🚨

The Battlefield 6 preload is now available on Xbox.

Thanks
@CODWarfareForum

[tall zinc]

yes you will be able to play the game immediately on the 10th with EA play pro

[light maple]

When the steam preload will start?

[crisp granite]

Oh cool - and I dont have to buy the fill game for it?

[tight prism]

72.53GB on Series X

[timid otter]

The calm before the storm guys!!!!!!

[tall zinc]

no you don't have to, but bare in mind EA play pro is a subscription, so you're paying for that

[strong echo]

Checking now, stand by

[hallow geode]

Still says "Expected auto-download date : 3/10/2025" for PS5

[strong echo]

It doesn't seem like we can preload on steam yet, I'll check again around 9mdt

[tight prism]

pc and PS goes live on the Octo 3rd

[timid otter]

Is EA app preload available?

[hallow geode]

Bruh who let xbox go first?

[cerulean ember]

EA Client preload starts October 3rd, so Steam may be same date

[crisp granite]

Yeah I know, I will buy it in the future for sure! Thanks!))

[hallow geode]

why xbox gotta be so rude like that and go 2 days early

[tall zinc]

no worries

[tight prism]

pre-loading rn

[strong echo]

Even tho I preordered on steam, the game doesn't appear on the EA app, should I be concerned?

[timid otter]

When you pre order a Xbox game it charges you 10 days before the game launch. Maybe that’s why Xbox can pre load now

[tight prism]

[hallow geode]

Well they'll be hearing from my lawyer

I too want to have a preload sitting there 10 days early 🤣

[cerulean ember]

Check your Steam library - Steam does not use EA app for launching

[white moss]

Oh jeez didn't realize it's now October

[strong echo]

No I know, I'm just saying usually when I buy EA Games from steam, they still appear in the EA app, is that the case with bf6?

[cerulean ember]

Nope

[strong echo]

Okay good 👍🏻

[cerulean ember]

BF6 does not use EA Client when purchased via Steam

[white moss]

Battlefield 6 is shaping up to be my favorite battlefield of all time

[cerulean ember]

As long as enough peeps PTFO lol

[pallid dirge]

Anyone has pres load on Xbox

[strong echo]

October 10 is a historical day y'all, our dad lore is about to skyrocket

[inland nymph]

Wait did they mess up the pre load and all

[tight prism]

they didnt

[cerulean ember]

https://gamerant.com/battlefield-6-pre-load-date-time/

[white moss]

🎶You need a little revive🎶

[white moss]

BF1 got some PTFO skins for guns. I enjoyed rocking those

[hallow geode]

I just want to say in advance to all the people that will rate the game poorly just because of the campaign. You are weird. That is all.

[white moss]

I ain't even downloading the campaign. Honestly should have just had the community themselves make it.

[cerulean ember]

Campaigns are fun - also a safe space to get the feel for movement, weapons, adjust settings

[white moss]

Glorified tutorial I suppose

[hallow geode]

Imma squeeze some fun out of it. I've always enjoyed them as just fun little warmups to the multiplayer

[white moss]

Didn't play hard-line but heard it was solid for the campaign. The ones I enjoyed were both bad companies and 3.

Logan you like my new name?

[hallow geode]

I ain't familiar with a lot of real gun names but if it's a good gun then yes

[timid otter]

Add the UCAV to BF6

[hallow geode]

ngl I read it as add a zipline to the game at first. Thought there was different variations of ziplines lol

[timid otter]

Did they say how big the season 1 maps are?

[craggy tapir]

HL was solid all-around. Good maps, good gunplay, good vehicles, good gamemodes, etc

[desert rose]

Thank you bf6 coming 9 days I am not sure what I was gonna do if all we had to look forward to is bo7 slop

[strong echo]

They have it I think, it's in the campaign

[hallow geode]

They ain't gonna let you even think about going to bo7. They dropping season 1 before bo7 even drops. Battlefield COOKING 🔥

[desert rose]

Yes

@hallow geode bf6 your my new call of duty 4 mw please don't add any celebrity skins like bo7

[rancid crown]

yeah this is huge actually i hadn't thought about it. They're going to steal cod's entire show by dropping new content before the game even releases

[desert rose]

I know I'll try bo7 beta but I know it's trash same sbmm same ui same nostalgia

[craggy tapir]

Same nostalgia baiting*

[hallow geode]

and if the BR rumours are true and that drops before november too then it's serious competition

[desert rose]

Yh

It is coming br

[soft heart]

br rumours they aint no rumours my guy there is even videos on youtube people playing it

[cerulean canopy]

I still don't understand why they're even going for a BR mode. This isn't 2018 at the height of the BR games hype, nor do I think the average BF player even plays BF for the BR mode to begin with.

[hallow geode]

Where did I say the "existence" of the BR was a rumour. I've watched 100's of gameplay videos my guy 🤣 The release date is a rumour

[desert rose]

Ggg for cod no chance against bf6

[craggy tapir]

Yeah. It would be pretty funny if BF managed to get a clean sweep on CoD by overthrowing Warzone though

[soft heart]

you said and if the br rumours are true

[strong echo]

Will bo7 be the 2042 equivalent?

[cunning marten]

Cod will outsell BF6 at least 5 to 1

[desert rose]

Yh but won't be goty

[craggy tapir]

For the sake of CoD fans, I hope so

Activision needs a game to fail so they actually start trying to make a good game

[cerulean canopy]

I haven't played CoD actively since BO2, so that can die for all I care

[cunning marten]

Id be surpised if BF6 was GOTY tbf, no matter how perfect it is. GOTY is always some copypasta Souls like sweat fest

[stiff zealot]

BO7 is a black ops 4 stim battles combo with black ops 3 wall jump, mw2 2022 sprint. Another Worst cod. I know already that they will bring out the most cringe skins in the store. BF6 is the way forward 100% correct me if im wrong. I think everyone here will agree ?

[desert rose]

Yh but if they keep their promise then goty

[cerulean canopy]

Everyone knows GOTY will probably be Power Wash Simulator 3 :>

[soft heart]

you know you are wrong that's what is going on

[hallow geode]

I am so wrong. That make you feel better?

[cerulean canopy]

I just want Titan mode brought back. They can do whatever so long as they bring that legendary gamemode back :V

[rancid crown]

he was talking about the release date lol

helps if you read the whole sentence

[craggy tapir]

Neither BF nor CoD has won game of the year since 2003

[abstract spear]

bf3 is game of the decade

[craggy tapir]

And Goty will likely never go to either of them ever again cause long-lived series don’t win goty

[rancid crown]

what does this even mean lmao do you watch TGA at all? lmao

[cunning marten]

BF4 is the game of humanity

[cunning marten]

No i do not

[tired epoch]

bf4 is the game of all time

[tidal prawn]

،

[strong echo]

I'm not too sure about that, bf4 didn't feel well polished

[rancid crown]

that much is clear lol only 2 goty winners in the last 10 years have been soulslikes

[cunning marten]

woah woah woah woah

[strong echo]

Lmao it's a good game, but not better than bf3

[craggy tapir]

Unpopular opinion: HL was a better game than 4 but a worse BF

[tired epoch]

its the truth tho, it has tons of issues on launch

[abstract spear]

woah woah woah

[hallow geode]

Well that's ironic. My comment about not wanting to get thingied by the mod bot (I don't know if the explosion word is allowed) got deleted

[tired epoch]

dont see how half life relates but agreed

[cunning marten]

that doesnt make sense

[craggy tapir]

HL = Hardline

[cunning marten]

3 was great, but basically a demo of BF4

[tired epoch]

oh, letdown

[craggy tapir]

How could it be a letdown? It didn’t effect any normal BF releases

[strong echo]

Bf4 had alot of ghost bullets and invisible walls

[cunning marten]

I just checked as was curious, astro bot winning last year makes the award 100% meaningless

[stoic marten]

why did they change Tombstone Pack soldier ??'

[desert rose]

@craggy tapir let's just hope bf6 does this time

[craggy tapir]

I hope 6 does well so we can eventually get a HL2

[abstract spear]

bc3 before that

[cunning marten]

100% skill issue, the net code was perfect

[craggy tapir]

Best gamemodes in the series with nearly 0 bad maps + cops vs crims was a good combination

It just shouldn’t have been called Battlefield

[desert rose]

Remember when cod 4 finding lobbies was so quick man those where the time the era of when gaming meant something

[tired epoch]

well i mean if we're comparing bf hardline with half life, id rather have half life

[strong echo]

Nvidia just released DLSS4 update for bf6

are you the type that doesn't pay attention to a game just because it's a platformer and not a big AAA shooter

bf and cod haven't won goty because they're generic games made for generic audiences, they haven't matched up to any of the goty nominees for years

[craggy tapir]

Comparing just about anything with Half life is pointless. Valve had a generational run around its time

[cunning marten]

Pffft, what an outrageous accusation

[abstract spear]

would goty be single player games

[cunning marten]

Sony seem to win it alot, do they sponsor it or something?

[desert rose]

The event yesterday dexterity perk glitched already 🤣🤣🤣

[craggy tapir]

Not necessarily. Imo Arc raiders could be a contender for goty depending on how its launch goes

[rancid crown]

they make good games

[granite lodge]

Aint no way people still talking about half life

[abstract spear]

right god of war has to have won something, that game series is great

[tired epoch]

ghost of yotei getting goty

[native raft]

tbf Metaphor should have won it, astro bot is a very mid platformer

[tired epoch]

maybe even silksong

[tough elk]

Kingdom come deliverance 2 goty

[craggy tapir]

Silksong is above yotei

[exotic spire]

Nah fam

[delicate quartz]

donkey kong bananza or expedition 33

[tired epoch]

well one isnt out yet, but both easily get nominations

[cunning marten]

It won GOTY in 2018, beating the mighty Assassins Creed Odyssey..

[abstract spear]

i stopped maining single player games when i found out about bc2

[tough elk]

Silk song will definitely win the indie award

[craggy tapir]

Nintendo should not win goty. It’s going to be between silksong and expedition 33

[cunning marten]

wait, RDR2 came 6th in 2018?!?! Its probably the greatest game ever made, game awards are a joke

[hallow geode]

If there's any year that a game got robbed of goty it's red dead 2. I played God of War and Red Dead 2 twice. You could make an argument that red dead 2 had clunkier gameplay but looking at the whole package it's wild

[woeful swallow]

omfg, I just realized the BF6 battle pass gives like 30+ skins… now I have to play this game. I can’t believe it, I thought it was just those 6 basic skins.

[exotic spire]

Game is still amazing

[woeful swallow]

🙁

[cunning marten]

It was behind Assassins Creed ffs ahaha

[exotic spire]

Graphics are OG

[native raft]

I am yet to see these, have they actually shown them all?

[abstract spear]

the greek mythology god of war titles were better

[cunning marten]

yeah, easily still one of the best games

[rancid crown]

there are no rankings, it either wins or it doesn't
