general

[pallid nebula]

ew no this is not a competitive game, competitive play should not dictate game mechanics

[sharp path]

That's not holding a lane against an AN94

[pallid nebula]

a notoriously OP gun, not representative of the game as a whole.

[sharp path]

Battlefield was at it's peak between Bad Company 2 to Battlefield 3 to Battlefield 4 when it was competitive

Almost every gun was OP on BF3

A UMP-45 was 34 damage up close that's a 3 shot kill or a 2 shot kill with a headshot

[pallid nebula]

If everything is OP, then nothing is. At that point it's just balanced

[sharp path]

Exactly you see now you're learning @pallid nebula

Since everything was OP nothing needed to be balanced and NOBODY asked for the UMP45 to get nerfed to 33 damage or for no M16A3 in Bf4

That was just DICE and EA pandering to people with bad aim

An Sks was 1 shot headshot uplcose too for example @pallid nebula

[pallid nebula]

Everything has its place, even suppression. I'm fine with removing suppression from nearly everything but LMGs and maybe bolt actions should have it because lane denial is an important gameplay mechanic

[sharp path]

M16A4 was one headshot burst up close @pallid nebula

When weapons are lethal then you actually have to think about gun range and recoil

[deep cedar]

I’m op

[sharp path]

44 Magnum was 1 shot headshot with a lot of range @pallid nebula

If you're good enough to hit the shot then you get rewarded

That's how it worked on Battlefield for years

[pallid nebula]

Sure but just because one game is different from another doesn't mean it's better or worse. If you wanted that out of BF1, there was a 1 shot headshot revolver too

[sharp path]

The thing is NOBODY asked for them to balance the weapons the way they did in Bf1

The same way NOBODY asked them to change the ttk on Bf2042 then they reluctantly had to change it back

DICE thinks they are a genie in a bottle and know best

When you look at BF3 to Bf4 for example all people said was remove suppression and nerf explosive damage from the M320s and Frag Rounds

[pallid nebula]

You have to consider the map design, and guns available in that time period. BF1 gunplay wouldn't work in a modern day setting but it's excellent for WW1. The fans don't always know best, especially when they argue in favor of (sometimes unintentionally) dumbing down the gameplay.

[sharp path]

DICE was like "Oh you don't like M320s how about a semi automatic M320 called the XM25"

@pallid nebula

The Bf1 maps are fine tbh

[pallid nebula]

They make bad decisions in every game, but you don't have to write off the product as a whole

[sharp path]

The problem and the reason why people are so mad is not that they make mistakes, is that they make mistakes NOBODY asked for

NOBODY asked for cops and robbers with no vehicles in Battlefield Hardline

[pallid nebula]

Nobody ever asks for mistakes, but they have a way of popping up anyway. BF6 won't be perfect either

[neon sluice]

Don’t you bring Hardline into this. He didn’t do anything wrong

[pallid nebula]

BF Hardline is good for what it is. A product can be unwanted while being excellent.

BF Hardline has pretty nice and fun gunplay, but put it in BF1 and it would be terrible lol

[sharp path]

They aren't mistakes though they are decisions

[neon sluice]

Yeah if people thought the SMG 08/18 was bad, with BF4 style gameplay it would be even worse

[sharp path]

Who asked for Caspian Border over Operation Metro or Operation Firestorm on BfPortal newsflash NOBODY asked for Caspian Border 😂😂😂😂😂

[neon sluice]

Wasn’t Caspian Border like one of the most popular maps from BF3? There’s a reason they brought it back with BF4

[sharp path]

Which NPC at DICE was like hmmm Damavand Peak nah, Grand Bazaar nah, Seine Crossing nah

Actually it really wasn't only for figher jet tournaments @neon sluice

[neon sluice]

I mean I do agree that they could’ve done more with Portal but I have no issue with the BF3 or BC2 maps

The 1942 maps hurt

[sharp path]

Was it a good map yes most of the Bf3 maps were good but people 100x rather jump off the Damavand Peak cliff than play Caspian friggin Border

[neon sluice]

El Alamein was designed to make men cry

[neon sluice]

I didn’t realize you were the entire community

[pallid nebula]

The perfect game will never exist, and with millions of fans you will NEVER please everyone. One man's opinion that something is bad is another 2 men's opinion that it's good. It's about finding a balance, casting a wide net as they say. BFV and BF2042 are objective failures of a product, so it's hardly worth discussing those games in the same way we discuss other titles.

[prime torrent]

Is battlelog shutting down for every game? I just checked and it said something about that

[sharp path]

As someone who's been in the community for 15 years and knows multiple former number 1s across multiple Battlefield titles I'm not the entire community but I have a big palette

[prime torrent]

I know its down for ps3/360

[sharp path]

Not even the tankers asked for Caspian Borded @neon sluice

[prime torrent]

But i was looking at ps4

[sharp path]

That's another thing NOBODY asked for operators in Bf2042 @pallid nebula

Like do you see the point now?

[neon sluice]

TBF while Damavand Peak would’ve been cool I do think it would’ve been redundant with maps like Exposure or Pre-Rework Breakaway

[pallid nebula]

You can't add too many old maps because it takes away time from creating new maps. That means they have to pick only a select few, and there will always be ppl who don't like those returning maps

[sharp path]

Exposure and Breakway are nothing compared to Damavand Peak on Rush

Never has been and never will be

[neon sluice]

I don’t play Rush so IDK

I guess I’ll have to take your word for it

[pallid nebula]

I already covered that in my comment, it hurts my feeling that you don't read my great walls of text

[sharp path]

They ruined rush tbh that's why nobody plays it

I know you covered it I recovered it

Why does Call Of Duty get Nuketown and Shipment every year yet we can't get Operation Metro and Operation Locker?

I would love someone at DICE and EA to explain that one to me

[pallid nebula]

BF2042 and BFV are objective failures, and as such they shouldn't be discussed in the same way we discuss pros and cons of other titles

Absolute failures based on delusional management and incompetence

[pallid nebula]

some people HATE those maps with a burning passion, then you have ppl like me who want primarily new maps

[sharp path]

Can someone at DICE and EA in this Discord explain to me why we have to wait 15 years for an Operation Metro remaster because the Bf4 version was behind a Dlc paywall

[neon sluice]

Go play operation underground

It’s like metro but good

[sharp path]

Every game remasters everything look at Halo @pallid nebula

Look at Cod

Look at Counter Strike

[pallid nebula]

They don't have destruction. Can't just port a map to a new BF.

[neon sluice]

Lemon from how it sounds you want the same BF game over and over with little variation

[sharp path]

People loved Terminal on Mw2 guess what they put Terminal in for free in Mw3 on CoD again for FREE

[neon sluice]

Idk I’m just a silly little guy

[sharp path]

People loved Nuketown in Black Ops 1 guess what they put in Nuketown 2025 in Black Ops 2 for FREE

[pallid nebula]

It takes months to rebuild the maps in BF, probably not much less time than it takes to make a whole new one.

[quasi thicket]

Old maps are old

[sharp path]

I'm not asking for no variation but if you aren't going to put in Operation Metro then at least make the infantry maps the same quality or better

[pallid nebula]

You're seeing it from an outside perspective, not everyone likes those maps and not everyone is pleased that they return over other maps

[sharp path]

Nuketown is the most popular map on Black Ops 6

[neon sluice]

I feel like the past 3 BF games have been pretty good with infantry focused maps

[sharp path]

90% of infantry players on Battlefield 3 liked Operation Metro

[pallid nebula]

key word is "infantry"

BF is a combined arms game

[sharp path]

People had big complains about Noshar Canals and they put it in portal

[pallid nebula]

Sure but that map has its fans

[neon sluice]

Ford De Vaux, Achi Baba, Passchendaele, Operation Underground, Al Marj, Redacted, and Stadium

[sharp path]

Operation Metro has more fans than Noshar Canals

[pallid nebula]

There's no way to get factual information on that

[neon sluice]

Guys they should’ve brought back Hamada from BFV

[sharp path]

What about Grand Bazaar?

Nobody complains about Grand Bazaar they put it in Battlefield Hardline and then what they just forgot about it?

[neon sluice]

Why are you so worked up over this

[hushed cobalt]

Some people just whine for a living online

[sharp path]

Because it'll be 15 YEARS now since Battlefield 3

[hushed cobalt]

What a horrible way to spend your life

[sharp path]

Some players are tired of seeing trash title after trash title

[hushed cobalt]

Ok unc if you like BF3 so much why not just keep playing that

Or finding something else good like Helldivers

[sharp path]

This guy tried to compare Battlefield 3 to Helldivers

😂😂😂😂😂

DICEbot

[hushed cobalt]

Im not comparing them

[neon sluice]

If one game is enough to get you this worked up I would be very concerned about how you handle relationships

[pallid nebula]

I could go find someone who hates Hamada. Doesn't mean anything one way or another. Can't please everyone, someone always gets left out. I'd love Hamada back, but boi would I hate if that airbase map returned from BFV lol

[sharp path]

You saw how they had to shut down the reddit for Battlefield during Battlefield 2042?

[hushed cobalt]

Im saying HD2 is a good game and its better to just shut up and play a better game than whine

[sharp path]

People get very worked up about this

Battlefield 3 was a better game than Helldivers 2

[neon sluice]

So… you’re a Redditor?

[pallid nebula]

implying anyone here has a relationship

[sharp path]

One game? It's been over a decade now

[neon sluice]

I mean a good chunk of the player base just moves on

[sharp path]

You didn't see how worked up the CoD community got over the jet pack era?

[neon sluice]

I don’t think I’ve played 2042 since January

[pallid nebula]

It's been nearly a decade, but not over a decade. BF1 is not "trash", it's one of the most popular BF titles for a reason

[sharp path]

What did CoD do hmmmm they listened

BF1 is immersion and decent maps dude

BF1 is a popular but extremely casual game in the series

[neon sluice]

BFV is pretty neat

[sharp path]

Not a single legit clan from the previous 3 titles played Bf1

[neon sluice]

This was the last clip from 2042 I recorded. All the way in June 2024

[pallid nebula]

CoD devs are scum who manipulate weapon balance to sell skins, break old games and make them unplayable, and lie to you if it will make them money. Listening to fans is one of the last things they do, like bugfixing

[sharp path]

@pallid nebula Last time I checked you can play the old Cods on console

[pallid nebula]

I was in a big Xbox clan for BF1. Very toxic, but a clan nonetheless

[sharp path]

You can't even play Battlefield 3 on console they shut it down 😂😂😂

[neon sluice]

Mostly THE FINALS has been scratching that Battlefield itch

[pallid nebula]

Clearly you didn't try to play MW19 once the other WZ connected games came out. More and more was broken over time and never fixed. Lots of pain.

[sharp path]

Almost every single serious Battlefield player agrees peak Battlefield was from Bad Company 2 to Battlefield 3 to Battlefield 4 with Bf4 being the worse one yet Battlefield 4 was in 2013 it's 2025 why do we have to wait 12+ years for another title like that?

[neon sluice]

I still don’t know why you’re so angry about a video game

Like Jesus man get a hobby

[sharp path]

I have multiple hobbies I'm 26 I'm 7% bodyfat and 6'2 I own 3 cares and travel the world buddy

[hushed cobalt]

Bro Dreyfuss theres no point in arguing with him just go to another Discord respectfully

[sharp path]

When I play Battlefield I want to play Battlefield not trash @neon sluice

[meager fjord]

Nobody asked lmfaoo

[pallid nebula]

GTA fans have been waiting around that time. Games take longer now to develop. Imagine the wait for a good WW2 BF game lmao

[sharp path]

I don't care if nobody asked someone told me to go get a hobby so I shut them up lol

[pallid nebula]

I bet he won't even send inappropriate pics to prove it 💔

[sharp path]

GTA 5 fans have GTA Online with constant updates buddy

[pallid nebula]

They've yearned for its death for years now

[sharp path]

Funny how GTA Online fans don't get crazy gameplay changing mechanics that they didn't ask for yet GTA Online and GTA RP are one of the most popular games 10+ years later

Plus you realize Rockstar doesn't just make GTA they make various games

[pallid nebula]

rocket bike

[sharp path]

DICE literally makes ONE GAME

[pallid nebula]

ROCKET BIKE

[sharp path]

People did not quit playing GTA Online over the Rocket Bike buddy

😂😂😂😂😂

[meager fjord]

Alot of people definitely quit cuz of that bike

[sharp path]

And if you don't like it you can literally make a private lobby with your friends on GTA Online hmmmmm look at that they give you options

Nobody quit buddy they just played in private lobbies

[meager fjord]

They nerfed it n made changes to it from my understanding

[sharp path]

😂🤣😂🤣😂

[pallid nebula]

It's the number one thing ppl mention to me when they discuss why they stopped. Also it took Rockstar unfathomable years to let people do missions in private servers, which was probably the most requested GTAO feature to date.

[meager fjord]

People 100% stopped playing cuz not everyone was gonna make private lobbies to just have fun in free roam

[sharp path]

Of course people were farming missions in GTA 5

[pallid nebula]

Private servers were practically useless until maybe the last 2 or 3 years. Idk, time flies.

[sharp path]

GTA 5 has a 24 hour player count peak at 85,000+ while Battlefield 2042 only has a 24 hour player count peak of 7,985

So you can say whatever you want about GTA 5 Battlefield 2042 has 90% less players and is years newer buddy

[pallid nebula]

Idk what we are arguing about or if we are even disagreeing

[sharp path]

Idk you want to compare GTA to Battlefield when it's not even close Rockstar is a way better company and delivers a way better product

[pallid nebula]

Oh yeah we were talking about waiting. All I know is people have violently wanted GTA 6 for as long as I can remember lol

[meager fjord]

Yeah I joined late im just chiming in, but Realistically you can’t compare the two. Especially when in gta u can literally just do nothing n drive around which im sure alot of people do. Battlefield u cant, also bf2042 was a steaming pile of dookie on release n they barely improved it

[meager fjord]

Same

[sharp path]

Of course and Rockstar is putting a record breaking $2 Billion dollars into GTA 6 Production

[meager fjord]

Also rockstar compared to DICE, rockstar is the powerhouse here

[pallid nebula]

The greed and corporate depravity people will witness in GTA 6 will be unfathomable. I will laugh as they fork over their 75 dollars for a single in-game item

[sharp path]

And it will be funny how GTA 6 will be just like GTA 5 just bigger, more details, more stuff to do, just like GTA 5 was to GTA 4. Rockstar isn't going to massively change the game like DICA and EA did from Bf4 to Battlefield Hardline to Bf1 like NOBODY asked for

[meager fjord]

I wish 2042 was never a thing. And those rumors about continuing the storyline and making a bad company 3 game woulda went so hard. But they decided to drop a multiplayer only bf game with zero destruction

[sharp path]

@meager fjord Exactly Bad Company 3 what people have been asking for 15 years now

[meager fjord]

I also wish DICE kept the formula instead of doing shit nobody asked for.

[meager fjord]

Ill give my soul for it

[sharp path]

But nooooooooooo we get McKayyyyyyyyy NOBODY asked for McKay

DICE your NOT FORTNITE nobody cares about your McKay skins

[meager fjord]

LMFAOO

[sharp path]

😂🤣😂🤣😂

[pallid nebula]

BF1 fundamentally could never play like BF4 or BF3, it's just not possible. Now that we are in the modern era it is unacceptable that we have not gone back to our roots tho

[meager fjord]

I was so mad after pre-ordering and playing that game the first week

[sharp path]

@meager fjord We're taking a stand against no nmserver browser and sbmm in the new Battlefield title

[meager fjord]

Ngl, as much hate as they get, BF1 & BF5 imo were amazing

[sharp path]

I am not allowing sbmm in the new Battlefield game

[pallid nebula]

BFV could have probably played like BF3 or BF4, but once again it's terrible like BF2042. I will always be a certified real BFV disliker

[sharp path]

I don't care who I have to talk to

Even Suderland

[meager fjord]

BF1s downfall was that they wanted to remain somewhat historically accurate so there was a small amount of weapons/gadgets n things to add for content

[meager fjord]

I can get down with this

[sharp path]

SBMM is not happening in the new Battlefield game

[meager fjord]

I personally think bf5 was better then 2024

[sharp path]

We take a stand here or we lose Battlefield forever

I am certain about this.

[meager fjord]

Bf5 introduced the volley running mechanic & the omni directional proning/diving , it was very clean imo

[meager fjord]

SBMM imo makes no sense for battlefield

[pallid nebula]

BFV was unfinished so DICE never had time to properly flesh out gameplay mechanics. Leaving us with either half baked ideas or simply nothing. As with everything, progress and decline are linear, so while BFV is better than 2042, it was still the start of the end and the 2 cannot be separated.

[tropic cobalt]

buddy thinks he can do something about it

[pallid nebula]

The new BF is looking like BFV if the vision was completed. I know DICE doesn't want us to talk about this, but they can't reject a complement

[meager fjord]

I agree.. the ideas & outline was there, but it was for sure not finished or polished at all

This new BF actually has my hopes up for once.

Seeing similar destruction to the finals peaked my interest

I play the finals for the battlefield itch it provides me with

[pallid nebula]

The future is bright, I will preorder if the pre launch versions are fun.

[meager fjord]

After playing whatever betas they have will make me decide whether I pre-order or not

[sharp path]

@tropic cobalt Trust me I can do a lot about it

[pallid nebula]

I definitely haven't seen anything online, but IF I saw things posted online I would say I liked what I saw

[sharp path]

I can flip the Battlefield Community upside down

[sour void]

https://tenor.com/view/saturnoir-gif-26965938

[cobalt nest]

who unlocked the peacekeeper in bf1 ?

[pallid nebula]

I'm hoping for an all platform alpha and beta. Gives people the chance to see the progress (or lack of it) with their eyes.

[meager fjord]

Quick topic change, im not big on extraction shooters. But I will say this, I played the early alpha tests for embarks new Arc Raiders game & man when I tell u they got something special. I wonder how the market will be when that & Marathon release around similar times

[meager fjord]

Yes exactly, we need a big open beta tests for like 2-3 weeks

They need to get the stress tests in & feedback as soon as possible

[pallid nebula]

Does it seem like it has a real well crafted world and art direction, or was the art direction primarily designed around selling wacky microtransactions? Marathon's art direction only exists for microtransactions, it's quite obvious

Haven't seen much on Arc Raiders

[meager fjord]

Well thats what I mean. It doesn’t seem like its going down that path that marathon is going for

[pallid nebula]

I see, I'm tired of games without a well crafted art direction

[meager fjord]

As much as I love that art design & the lore to marathon, its a AAA extraction shooter with alot of the core features to a hardcore extraction shooter taken out so it can appeal to the bigger audience n be less, harsh. But also they want to take advantage of cosmetics

Arc Raiders has such rich environments & story telling set pieces / structures that really tell u how things went. The lore is awesome and the sound design is AMAZING

[pallid nebula]

Sounds like it will be movement based, which is oversaturated in the AAA market. Is Arc Riders movement based?

[meager fjord]

Really goes to show u when you have smaller dev teams with passion & a idea in mind can do

[sharp path]

NOBODY asked for Battlefield extraction

Also NOBODY asked for Battlefield Firestorm to cost $60

[meager fjord]

Its 3rd person which changes things up, but its not movement based I would say. Stamina system makes you play very smart around choosing to roam around or stay sprinting. They have stamina syringes specifically for moments where u gotta get moving, & they have ziplines u can create for vertically, but its all items that aren’t easy to acquire

[pallid nebula]

I'll give Marathon and honest try, but I do not expect to like it based on what I've seen. I dislike Apex a lot and Marathon first impressions heavily remind me of it both in "art direction" and intended gameplay

[meager fjord]

So its a very grounded, immersive experience

[meager fjord]

Lmfao true, cool idea. Terrible execution

[pallid nebula]

Stamina system = insta attention for me. Yippee

[sharp path]

Warzone was free DICE and EA were like let's charge $60 for our battle royale that's worse than Warzone

[pallid nebula]

I love cover based 3rd person shooters, so maybe it will slightly fulfill that desire

[sharp path]

Who is calling the shots for DICE and EA Mr. Bean?

😂🤣😂🤣😂

[meager fjord]

I think ill enjoy it based off that art style & cuz I was a big apex player in the past. But I don’t see me getting hooked for long hours

[sharp path]

In what world was $60 Firestorm going to overtake Warzone and PUBG?

[pallid nebula]

The historical revisionists will tell you Firestorm was well received and liked by the community. Not sure how they came to that opinion

[meager fjord]

Its beautiful

[meager fjord]

Its great, makes u really think about your plays

You can’t just push anyone, guns aren’t super accurate either. Well the automatic ones aren’t

[pallid nebula]

Devs are advertising it as a very frustrating experience with a low survival rate. Sounds like more casual players will get pushed out fast by the more hardcore groups.

[meager fjord]

And the PvE? Very very dangerous. Sometimes teams literally work together b4 continuing a fight against each other

Makes super interesting games, new experience every time u get in

[pallid nebula]

Prox chat??

[meager fjord]

Yup

[meager fjord]

Prox chat & a very well made in game wheel chat that works great if u don’t wanna speak

Sometimes u run into other raiders & they wanna work together, not everyone benefits from killing everyone else n looting

[pallid nebula]

Nice. Honestly DMZ was a really good extraction shooter except the excessive spotting options and the fact it was made by Activision, but I will look forward to a completely different experience out of Arc Raiders.

[pallid nebula]

Will I be able to lurk and sneak, doesn't sound possible in Marathon.

[meager fjord]

Have u seen anything about arc raiders? Ill link you the only gameplay trailer they have currently, but the devs decided to lift the NDA so come this next closed testing you’ll be seeing streamers showing it off

[meager fjord]

Lurking and sneaking is a huge play style & its awesome

[pallid nebula]

I see. Haven't seen anything yet since it hasn't had Xbox testing

[meager fjord]

Lemme find you the video

[pallid nebula]

Oh it's 40 dollars, that's good as it will keep the plebs and some hackers out

[meager fjord]

Exactly why embark decided to give it a price point

And for what I played, considering it was a early alpha. I am more then happy to dish out $40

I also DM’d u the gameplay trailer

[pallid nebula]

yes thank u, I signed up

[pallid nebula]

I like to play with my older brother, and I'm mid 20s and he's low 30s so we tend to stick to medium or slower paced games. The Finals is a quality product, but not my style

[tropic cobalt]

absolutely

there's an entire class dedicated to stealth

[quasi thicket]

You know how also lurks and sneaks?

https://tenor.com/view/my-mom-muscle-man-regular-show-my-parent-my-guardian-gif-12193636264512365062

[meager fjord]

Yeah alot of my friends really like it, but can’t keep up with the speed & flow of the game

[meager fjord]

That is also true

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/935989994735169546/966778452814467082/pig.gif

[tropic cobalt]

she has many looks

[meager fjord]

I like her, but ama probably play as blackbird for intel

[pallid nebula]

CoD 2 weeks into the live service ahh skin

[meager fjord]

She got many fits

[tropic cobalt]

honestly i can't even pick

they all look so fun to play

locus and glitch maybe

but blackbird and void as well super cool

[meager fjord]

Blackbird & void for me

We also getting like 2 or 3 more runners on launch

[pallid nebula]

grandpa opinion but I miss when we could have serious scifi games.

[tropic cobalt]

idk where you've been but they're still here

and marathon is very serious

[meager fjord]

They are still around, just gameplay wise things dont hit the same

[tropic cobalt]

marathon has probably some of the most serious themes of any recent game

[pallid nebula]

i'd like the exact opposite of that lol

[tropic cobalt]

well you've got like... every other game in the history of gaming for that

let marathon be itself

[meager fjord]

If you watch the cinematic trailer, you’ll probably understand the more serious sci fi vibe it has

Off the pictures alone it doesn’t give that

[pallid nebula]

Funny how "let it be itself" for modern games always means bright color microtransaction focused character design lol

[meager fjord]

The pictures and gameplay don’t really show the serious side of the lore at all, but its actually kind of cool. Lets hope the game has a good flow too it

[zenith wraith]

how do i sign up to battlefield labs?

[meager fjord]

I can see rhe bright color micro transactions on the way tho

[meager fjord]

Battlefield labs website

[pallid nebula]

The lore might be solid but the AAA live service aesthetic is a complete turnoff for me.

[zenith wraith]

im trying but it just says this

"The application has encountered an error. It doesn't appear to have affected your data. Lets"

over and over and over

[pallid nebula]

Eh 99.99% of the people who signed up ain't getting in until there's an open alpha/beta

[meager fjord]

I agree

[meager fjord]

Yeah that website fucking sucks, it was super finicky for me

Idk how I managed to get to the sign up part

[tropic cobalt]

i mean if you took the time to analyse marathon's art style you'll see that it's one of the most creative and unique ones of any game

[pallid nebula]

Titanfall 1 is peak scifi aesthetic and lore imo

Not that I want every game to look like that, but it's obvious when serious thought went into crafting the world vs when it's made for microtransactions.

[tropic cobalt]

vibrant contrasting colors but a strong focus on being grounded and realistic, things have a purpose and look like they belong

and the characters also look like that for a reason, they're not people

[pallid nebula]

They want to sell microtransactions to appeal to ooooh shiny rock type people

[tropic cobalt]

you think they couldn't do that with a regular boring art style?

like every other game?

[pallid nebula]

the reason isn't that they aren't the people, the reason is bright microtransactions lol

[tropic cobalt]

alright buddy

[neon sluice]

Brother I didn’t need your life story

[pallid nebula]

Nearly all live service games went this way, so no they genuinely couldn't.

[tropic cobalt]

bungie totally developed a brand new style for marathon purely to sell skins, definitely

they couldn't just keep doing destiny, definitely not

[pallid nebula]

There's a bunch of fortnite skins that look like that

Not a new style at all

[tropic cobalt]

fornite isn't made in that style lol

and no there isn't any skin with marathon's art style

bright colors maybe

[pallid nebula]

What's innovative about punk outfits but they are androids?

[tropic cobalt]

people can't appreciate what bungie is doing because they're all so brainrotted by fortnite that anything with bright colors looks like it's made for mtx lol

[tropic cobalt]

[meager fjord]

The bright flashy colors n neon vibes make it seem like a cheap funnel hole into micro transactions but going thru all the key art & what they base their designs / palettes off is pretty cool

[tropic cobalt]

or feel free to show me games that adopted this style for their universe

[nimble bison]

Does it even matter if a "style" is innovative

[meager fjord]

Its not for everyone tho I guess

[pallid nebula]

nothing is new or unique about what was shown. If I'm proven wrong and it's not microtransaction slop then that's cool because we need less of that in games

[tropic cobalt]

doesn't even seem like you're listening anymore lmao

like u didnt have to reply bud lol if its that upsetting for ya

Because the question gets asked every day multiple times and the answer is obvious. It's a limited testing environment in the current state and with probably over a million sign ups

that's not really what a gacha is...

Still doesnt matter when the principal of ever changing metas makes the rate of consumption is similar.

Hey guys battlefield 4 is on sale on Xbox for literally 2$. Are the battlefield 4 servers still up?

I remember reading battlefield 3 and battlefield 4 servers shut down

[maiden wharf]

Is it just me or do the bad company 2 maps suck ass?

[rocky copper]

Soon my Xbox live gold tenure will tick over to 19 years

[leaden kestrel]

I gave my XBOX to my friends.

And donated the other one to Goodwill.

[rocky copper]

All my old consoles are tucked away in my cupboards

[leaden kestrel]

I used to do that, but there comes a time when you need to let old consoles go.

[patent quail]

never

especially when you could mod them and breathe new life into them

like that ps2 mod that converts your console into a debug model so it basically region unlocks the thing to play discs from anywhere

[leaden kestrel]

All those consoles are obsolete in the wake of the Steam Deck.

[patent quail]

[final glade]

does the deck come with a screen protector as standard?

[patent quail]

Original experience is unbeaten though

[leaden kestrel]

You can get a screen protector for $15.

returnal was alright

[leaden kestrel]

My listerine strips were in the washer and exploded all over my favorite dress shirt.

https://tenor.com/view/cry-crying-nina-ichihara-u149-idolmaster-gif-13910816061342647833

[wind veldt]

now that is a tragic event

im sorry for your loss

[leaden kestrel]

I tried handwashing it out, but it was too late.

[wind veldt]

dang

[leaden kestrel]

The only part I couldn't wash out was the underside of the collar, so I can probably hide it.

[wind veldt]

hhmmm yeah or if you wear something over it ig, or take it to a pro to see if they can clean it up

[leaden kestrel]

I'll air dry them and see what happens.

[wind veldt]

if not theres always the option of buying a new one!

[median idol]

just saw the labs video

im excited

[leaden kestrel]

It's like $120 for a new one. I got a bundle of them on sale for $45 each.

[wind veldt]

oooh nice

but oof

oh well

youll get the money back

[leaden kestrel]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-cats-cat-sleep-sleep-sleeping-gif-23371265

[wind veldt]

huh

what did it show

[wind veldt]

It's a lesson learnt, dont put listerine strips in the washer with your dress shirt

[leaden kestrel]

I forgot they were in my pants pocket.

[wind veldt]

classic

[leaden kestrel]

[wind veldt]

https://tenor.com/view/oopsies-ohno-gif-25793283

[leaden kestrel]

The dress shirt is light purple, so maybe that will help hide the light blue stain on it.

Better than on pink or white.

[wind veldt]

hhhmmm yeah

[leaden kestrel]

I managed to remove a couple of hot sauce stains on my white dress shirt, so maybe there's hope.

[wind veldt]

https://tenor.com/view/hope-gif-19238353

[leaden kestrel]

I really ought to wear a sweater vest to shield from eating messy.

[wind veldt]

it's an idea

or just dont eat messy you know

[leaden kestrel]

I hope the listerine strip mess didn't get on all my other clothes because they're in the dryer now for an hour.

[wind veldt]

ooooo

[leaden kestrel]

I didn't see the mess on my other dress shirts.

[wind veldt]

[leaden kestrel]

Why couldn't the mess go on the light blue dress shirt to match?

The humanity.

What a nice dress shirt pattern.

Birbs.

[quasi thicket]

don't let the daaaaaays gooo bbyyyyyyyyyyyy

listerine

[tropic cypress]

Damn I was licking a popsicle and my tongue got stuck to the popsicle

me the second i buy an enfield

ROITo bois! jerry's a pippa! clabber up the barniks an foiv sheets to tha wind wot

exactly -% nlish

I need a springfield, a mauser too now

[nocturne juniper]

Well howdy

[upper palm]

I believe BF1 soldiers could defeat BF4 soldiers

[quasi thicket]

well.. modern soldiers have kevlar and ballistic plates

but a tankgewehr can go through those without trying

most kevlar wont' stop 7.62 or larger anyway

but like the plates will

[upper palm]

BF4 movement tho

[quasi thicket]

really doesn't matter

[nocturne juniper]

With today's military advancements it would be very unlikely.

[quasi thicket]

like if you have a 9mm smg, kevlar all day

[nocturne juniper]

True

[upper palm]

oh I know but I’m talking about bf

[quasi thicket]

the larger caliber rifles would be the main advantage

[upper palm]

like only the weapons, vehicles, and movement count

And game mechanics

[quasi thicket]

the damage rates areny equivalent either

bf1 has pretty high damage rates

[nocturne juniper]

Oh lol, I gotcha

[upper palm]

yeah

[quasi thicket]

like a sniper body hit can 1-shot people with some rifles

but like the martini wouldn't do shit vs modern combat armor

[upper palm]

That’s an advantage for battlefield

[quasi thicket]

because the martini had like really large slow bullets

[upper palm]

bf4 damage system.

not talking about martini

like other anti tank weaponry

or even behemoths

[quasi thicket]

no body armor would stop a tankgewehr

like you'd need basically over an inch of metal

[upper palm]

How about grenades and dynamite?

dynamite is basically C4

[quasi thicket]

well no but it's still an explosive

[upper palm]

in bf terms

[quasi thicket]

c4 detonates faster

dynamite is a slower rate of detonation

[upper palm]

yeah but dynamite is c4 relative

would still work

[fair sail]

what is this comparison even about

[quasi thicket]

dynamite is also like the only explosive you can ignite with a fuse

[upper palm]

BF4 vs BF1

[quasi thicket]

as in fire

but other explosives you need to set off with a detonator

[fair sail]

hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby

[upper palm]

but in BF1 it’s wired

[tight granite]

BF4 soldiers have crazy movement

[upper palm]

but BF1 soldiers have crazy damage

And movement

[tight granite]

not really

[upper palm]

And revive

[quasi thicket]

the damage rates in bf1 are much higher than other bf games

[tight granite]

BF1 nerfed jumping

[upper palm]

true

[tight granite]

DPS or TTK?

[quasi thicket]

like a body hit with most snipers in bf1 will do 75-90ish

[fair sail]

comparing gameplay balance choices ?? wtf

[tight granite]

not to mention the guns in 4 are much more accurate

[upper palm]

Both

[quasi thicket]

where in like 2042 or bfV sniper body hits will be like 60-70

[upper palm]

for me BF1 has way better gun control

[tight granite]

I dunno about that lol

[upper palm]

And also BF1 has crazy behemoths compared to BF4

[quasi thicket]

cause modern is boring

[upper palm]

BF4 doesn’t even have behemoths

[quasi thicket]

what would be a modern behemoth

[fair sail]

is bf1 your first video game

like ever

[tight granite]

behemoths are just gimmicks

[upper palm]

AC-130

[quasi thicket]

that's just an air strike

[upper palm]

No, BF3

then BF4

then BF1

Then BF hardline

then BF5

[tight granite]

there's a reason why the AC-130 is only used against insurgents

[fair sail]

bf4 has bombers and ac130s lol

[quasi thicket]

modern stuff really made the idea of a reachable behemoth irrelevant

cause like you wouldn't have anything in view range like that

[upper palm]

True

[tight granite]

otherwise it'd be shot out the sky immediately by any combatant with aircraft or anti air

[upper palm]

but wouldn’t jets need some sort of lock on system for behemoths?

[quasi thicket]

instead of a dreadnought you'd have like... a missile destroyer bombard with missiles.

instead of a zepp you'd have a b21 stealth strike bombs

instead of like a big char 2c you'd just have rocket artillery devastate the area

[upper palm]

If it doesn’t have tech it’s Invisible

[quasi thicket]

yea that's the reason massive behemoths don't work out in modern settings

you'd just... lock on and wipe em

[upper palm]

True

wait I forgot BF4 does have a behemoth basically

AC-130

[quasi thicket]

so even if you had some mega-abrams tank it doesn't make sense

like the abrams can cross landscape at 50mph

really it barely makes sense to have jets in BF games

[upper palm]

although strength in numbers

[quasi thicket]

since the F35 locks on to targets from 10 miles away

[upper palm]

Reviving in BF1 is so much easier than bf4

[quasi thicket]

but in the game you can barely lock on to shit from 500m

bf1 is still active

[waxen chasm]

I want the developers to bring back the AC130 gunship, for the new battlefield they’re working on

[upper palm]

Erm

I only got to play in the AC-130 twice in my 2 years of playing BF4

They should add it back but make it like BF1 where it’s easier to spawn

Like when a team struggles to defend

[upper palm]

Although

Some planes in bf4 can’t lock on to certain things

[quasi thicket]

A modern behemoth would basically be "US hardware without game nerfs"

[upper palm]

maybe

[fair sail]

it is easy to spawn, someone just has to play commander

[upper palm]

I think in tech bf4 has superiority but on boots on ground BF1 has superiority

[quasi thicket]

A abrams m1a2 locking on to targets from 2 miles firing DU rounds

People dont have a damn clue where it is

[upper palm]

Overall I think BF1 would have superior battles over bf4

[quasi thicket]

"The enemy has been reenforced with the 1st armored brigade"

They dont even stop moving

They just run through and take out every vehicle you have

[upper palm]

True

[quasi thicket]

The main thing that'd help bf1 would be the caliber of the rifles. Otherwise it'd basically be taliban vs usa

[upper palm]

yeah

[quasi thicket]

Modern armor adds crazy survival rate

[upper palm]

I got 4 kills once in like 6 seconds because of the rifles in BF1

[upper palm]

But modern armor vs battlefield damage mechanic is like coughing baby vs hydrogen bomb

All it takes is a sneaky dynamite player

Boom bye bye 10m dollar tank
