I need a game somewhere between battlefield and soldier of fortune with a small pinch of carmageddon

serene wyvern
#

Damage reduction basically yeah

sacred junco
#

I hear gut shots are the most effective

#

Carmageddon lel

south lynx
#

Percentage damage reduction, flat absorption as a secondary HP pool, or flat reduction per hit?

#

Or some more complex model?

sacred junco
#

I assume there is a detailed model

#

involving bullet types and distance and all that

#

Which means that it also could feel rather inconsistent

#

Hear you could shoot someone in the head 3 times with a sniper

zinc vessel
#

That is stupid

south lynx
#

Glancing hits being deflected on the helmet?

zinc vessel
#

Maybe

sacred junco
#

That's probably a little too detailed

tight kettle
#

I want level 4 helmet that can withstand 50cal

zinc vessel
#

hahaha

tight kettle
#

But the downside is you snap your neck and die anyway

zinc vessel
#

just cover your head in super thick titanium. Ez pz

sacred junco
#

just don't have a head

icy sluice
#

Put tank on head

#

Ez

zinc vessel
#

Thinking outside the box. I like it

sacred junco
#

Todd knows what he's saying.

tight kettle
#

I wonder if a detailed mechanic for tanks like in wot would fit in bfv

#

It already had something like it

zinc vessel
#

I think it would

tight kettle
#

But I don't think true armor angling is possible

zinc vessel
#

Who knows

tight kettle
#

Jesus

#

Jesus knows

solid hinge
#

i'm playing good with Adapt

#

so far..

tight kettle
#

Is that some kind of hack

solid hinge
#

no

#

i'm playing BF1

#

to build up my muscle memory

tight kettle
#

Nice nice

solid hinge
#

and i have to beware my surroundings

#

in the game

tight kettle
#

This is true

#

Shoot all the mans

solid hinge
#

im trying

#

LOL

wild oxide
#

I don't know how much it will help you, but you can try increasing your minimap size

icy sluice
#

Team balancing just moved me three times in one match, I'm fucking done.

zinc vessel
#

Now we can shoot the wamans

solid hinge
#

bruh

#

all i am saying

#

is i kept dying

#

and i have to know my mistakes

tight kettle
#

Your mistake is not using the annihilator

zinc vessel
#

Don't be afraid to hipfire. That's my ti[

solid hinge
#

ill hip fire a sniper

#

and all classes if i feel like it

#

lol

zinc vessel
#

go for it

solid hinge
#

Heck naw

wild oxide
#

Well, I mean, the Trench/Carbine Snipers are decent for hipfiring

solid hinge
#

if someone gets close too me

toxic axle
#

or just get a good squad, you'll improve in no time

solid hinge
#

i help the team out

#

i use scout just to put flares

#

and yes i kill people

#

carefully thinking.

tight kettle
#

Is there flarehacks in bfv?

solid hinge
#

No

tight kettle
#

I don't like it in bf1

solid hinge
#

then use it the right way.

tight kettle
#

I can't. I don't snipe like a little girl

solid hinge
#

.......

#

Snipers are persistent.

tight kettle
#

I use either a girthy a10 or annihilator

#

Also I eat tanks for breakfast

solid hinge
#

well you good for support or a assault class

tight kettle
#

Ya assault is all i play unless I need to mortar a bunch of campers

#

Just the flarehacks are dumb

solid hinge
#

there not flare hacks man\

#

they just fire it randomly

#

like

tight kettle
#

Cheesy way to spot flankers

solid hinge
#

dude that's what snipers are for.

#

they help them spot the enemies

tight kettle
#

Ya not by firing a dumbass flare

solid hinge
#

lol

tight kettle
#

Go spam q like the rest of us

solid hinge
#

dude they only use a flare if the enemies were there

#

i play all classes by the way.

tight kettle
#

Nah they are being pre fired by decent players

solid hinge
#

because there tryhards

#

they spend hours of playing.

tight kettle
#

I won't mind if they had direct line of sight

#

It's not about diehard

#

I got a winrate of 70% I'm diehard bro

#

I just don't like dumb shit

solid hinge
#

then play calm

tight kettle
#

Like seemingly infinite traps, gas and incendiary grenades

#

Nah. That's not the German way

#

Gotta go lightning fast

#

The grenade issue seemed to be gone in bfv

#

Nobody saw that

solid hinge
#

because they don''t know history people need stop acting like then just play the game

#

i saw bfv gameplay myself

#

they work hard.

wild oxide
#

I saw it Nick :^)

tight kettle
#

Im on my phone. I swear it was autocorrect

#

Autopc

wild oxide
#

Reason

#

ACCEPTED

solid hinge
#

BFV is going to be fun

#

XD

#

i'm getting it

tight kettle
#

For sure

solid hinge
#

worth to buy

tight kettle
#

I jumped into the beta. That was the deciding factor for me

#

The gunplay was swag as hell

#

That's the only reason I'm buying it

solid hinge
#

the swag is real boys

#

the movement is the only thing

#

that drives me to buy the game

tight kettle
#

Ya that's a problem for me

#

As assault I destroy anything that drives

slate zephyr
#

I cant wait for the 9th

tight kettle
#

Same

#

Should be fun gunning down some guy named TacoCreaM

slate zephyr
#

Just dont be mad if your knifed by one

solid hinge
#

AHHH

#

BFV here we go

#

i'm getting the standard version

slate zephyr
#

Im upgrade my pc mid November also

#

I got a fx 8350 gona get the 2700x

solid hinge
#

You guys are lucky if you can play by 9th

#

not me

#

Yeah

#

nope

#

I see

#

i'm not getting the Deluxe version

tight kettle
#

Why

#

Bf1 release went fine

solid hinge
#

I don’t have a pc for starters

#

Standard release is better than Deluxe

wild oxide
#

Well, Deluxe start on the 15th, you start on the 9th if you have Origin Premium

tight kettle
#

RIP u

#

Im getting a month ea assass just for the 9th

solid hinge
#

But in all seriousness I would rather them release it at the same time for everyone if it’s complete

slate zephyr
#

Im gona upgrade my ea access from basic to premier so i can play it from the 9 to launch and downgrade to basic again lol

tight kettle
#

I'll buy the full game somewhere in the first month

fathom pebble
#

Iam gonna have to afford premier until December. Cant afford the game until then LULW

tight kettle
#

Haha

solid hinge
#

i'm not rich

#

lol

#

i can't buy games early

tight kettle
#

As long as you join us it's all good

solid hinge
#

solid hinge

@tight kettle i play on my Xbox lol i'm not PC

tight kettle
#

Ewwww

solid hinge
#

tight kettle
#

Well still. Enjoy man

solid hinge
#

i grew up with Xbox

slate zephyr
#

The last game i bought at launch was bf1 or it was mass effect

solid hinge
#

XD

tight kettle
#

Im not a fan of fps + controllers

#

Mass effect was good

slate zephyr
#

I got xb1 and ps4 but i only play pc my wife plays the xb1 allot

tight kettle
#

A good comedy

#

Be happy your wife doesn't hog your pc

#

I wish I had a wife like that

#

I wish I had a wife at all

#

Maybe Santa brings me one this year

slate zephyr
#

Lol

#

Well i work all the time so when i do get home i get the pc

#

Cas she just stays at home

zealous void
#

@wild oxide You mean origin Premier right?

wild oxide
#

Yes

tight kettle
#

What does viskadel mean

#

I know frikadel

zealous void
tight kettle
#

Of swords

#

Yes im a psychic

zealous void
#

ooooo

#

lol you know my channel?

tight kettle
#

I saw your tankvideo

#

On reddit

zealous void
#

did you scroll by WITHOUT upvoting

#

jk

tight kettle
#

Trying that juicy destruction I like it

zealous void
#

i love that meme

#

oh my god yeah its so cool

#

so smoothed from the alpha thank god lol

#

did you see the guy ontop of the churchill at 1:00

wild oxide
#

My name means absolutely nothing tbh

tight kettle
#

Ya

wild oxide
#

I just wanted an original name

zealous void
#

i like it

#

I make up words and names for characters

tight kettle
#

How does that work. Do tanks have seating positions on the back now?

zealous void
#

i love doin it

#

no he was just standing on it lol

tight kettle
zealous void
#

i would like that

tight kettle
#

My name is unoriginal

zealous void
#

it would be really cool actually

tight kettle
#

I took my father's idea

#

Yeah it would

#

The machinegun sound in tank are so good too

zealous void
#

oh yeah

#

the entire sound set for the tanks are great

#

listen to the tigers tracks squeak

#

and the crickets in the turning panzer's turret.

tight kettle
#

I will later when I have louder sound

zealous void
#

and listen to the soundtrack in the other one

#

i think its "Moody Suspense"

#

😩

solid hinge
#

So since battlefield v is coming closer

#

I want to ask a question or two actually

#

What mechanics makes a battlefield game a true battlefield title?

#

Why is battlefield so good?

#

Or why do we love it better yet?

zinc vessel
#

Ooo I like Moody Suspense

solid hinge
#

Oh yes isn’t it great

#

Moody

zinc vessel
#

Pretty moody yes

solid hinge
#

I wonder how well an iran-Iraq war based battlefield would work

#

you've got all the assets to work with

zinc vessel
#

Could raise controversy overseas

#

But idk

tight kettle
#

Battlefield is battlefield because size and infantry/vehicles

solid hinge
#

They'd need to remove things like scuds and chemical weapons then

zinc vessel
#

And destruction. adding to nick

tight kettle
#

To me anyway. And since bfv they are getting pretty close to perfect gun gameplay if you ask me

solid hinge
#

at the same time yeah it does feel very tasteless

serene wyvern
#

mm

solid hinge
#

I don't think alot of iranians would be happy since the war happened recently

zinc vessel
#

Yeaaa

solid hinge
#

well there's bf3 tbh

zinc vessel
#

Yeah

solid hinge
#

it would be interesting though

tight kettle
#

Antifa vs proud boys pls

#

Where the arsenal consists of memes

solid hinge
#

really shitty alt right memes

#

otherwise reason I asked the original question was because I was reading into the war a little and it's very resemblent to ww2

#

except it has jet planes and helicopters

tight kettle
#

I wish transport helicopters were a thing in bf

solid hinge
#

they are lol

tight kettle
#

Where a few guys flying back and forth was beneficial

solid hinge
#

gunships are used for just that

#

I think they should make that sort of stuff xp gains

zinc vessel
#

That's definitely more for a slow paced game

tight kettle
#

Yeah maybe

wild oxide
#

Yeah, sadly people only liked to use Transport Helis as one-use Taxis

zinc vessel
#

yeah

tight kettle
#

I remember doing that shit in Vietnam and bf2

solid hinge
#

To be fair planetside 2 has transport vehicles and people use them to ferry people all the time

#

said game is about as fast paced as battlefield

tight kettle
#

Never tried that game

solid hinge
#

it's better on PC

zinc vessel
#

hmm

solid hinge
#

just remember

tight kettle
#

I already forgot

#

Shooda best for pc anyway

solid hinge
#

also depends on the gamemode, for instance in bf1 I see alot of hardcore servers where they use vehicles for ferrying

zinc vessel
#

I've never seen that, but that would be awesome

#

I just don't think that the majority of the playerbase would be that patient

tight kettle
#

With scout class in bfv that becomes pretty much useless I think

solid hinge
#

it's weird

#

I don't really know how the bf community is so impatient

#

Like, you'd think they'd be fine but it's strange

#

what do you mean nick

tight kettle
#

Scouts can spawn on other squadleaders

zinc vessel
#

Noice

solid hinge
#

Why would they add that

#

I don't really understand the idea

tight kettle
#

It does make the scout more useful in the squad

solid hinge
#

how?

tight kettle
#

They can teleport your squads

zinc vessel
#

They squad can spawn in more places

#

yeah

#

what he said

tight kettle
#

Given squad had to die first

solid hinge
#

Yeah but that just sorta ruins squadplay doesn't it?

#

It's like how it used to be squad leader only spawns

#

that encouraged teamplay because it forced the player to be near the SL

tight kettle
#

But headshots now make players unrevivable

zinc vessel
#

noice

solid hinge
#

Ohh

#

That's nice

tight kettle
#

So one bullet to the sl dome and the sl is stuck on spawn

solid hinge
#

sounds like a horrible idea if it were implemented in bf1 or bf4 but with bfv it could work

tight kettle
#

We'll see how it works

#

It makes conquest more bearable for me I think

#

I don't enjoy the endless running between points

zinc vessel
#

I don't see where dragging fits in tho

solid hinge
#

I sorta like it tbh

tight kettle
#

If you can drag relatively fast it could be useful because reviving is not instant

solid hinge
#

Sometimes you need break times between combat

flat citrus
#

So EA is delaying everything for BF5 into oblivion?

solid hinge
#

apperantly

flat citrus
#

Such a shame

solid hinge
#

kinda dissapointed only 2 maps for the current roadmap

zinc vessel
#

Why? that's still 10 maps total

solid hinge
#

True

flat citrus
#

the roadmap is going to turn into battlefront 2. It's a super shitty business practice but its to prevent more fuel on the fire

solid hinge
#

The thing people don't realize is that

wild oxide
#

I think it's actually more than two maps, because it says Tank Battles

tight kettle
#

I rather have the game now and play what is available tbh

solid hinge
#

bfv is diffrent

dusk prism
#

who was playing guitar

#

come back

flat citrus
#

Thats why they switched to the live service crap so that if the games dont sell well they dont have to continue support

solid hinge
#

battlefront 2 wasn't even dice's main project tbh

#

they're not going to abandon bfv like bfront 2 because bf is their child series

#

it's their baby

flat citrus
#

Yes but because its licensed out on a contract EA does need to keep up its contract with Disney. Otherwise they'll lose it

#

If it was their baby they wouldn't of made it into this dumpster fire

solid hinge
#

what I said

tight kettle
#

Im glad they are going the live service way

zinc vessel
#

me too

tight kettle
#

Im still discovering new maps in bf1 today

flat citrus
#

You realize they have no obligation to fullfill all the live service right?

zinc vessel
#

Nope

tight kettle
#

Because nobody played the premium stuff

zinc vessel
#

But hey I'm good with it

flat citrus
#

Do you understand they dont have to make the live service

#

if the game doesnt make money

#

?

zinc vessel
#

Yup

tight kettle
#

Sure

flat citrus
#

so why are you okay with that?

zinc vessel
#

Idk

tight kettle
#

Do you understand the maps you usually pay for aren't even played few days after release

flat citrus
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Whats your goal with that specific counter argument?

#

Are you attempting to defend EAs practice?

zinc vessel
#

Idk

tight kettle
#

What dice/EA is trying now yes

flat citrus
#

Trying isnt doing

#

its a piss excuse for something that should of been done in development

solid hinge
#

I mean are they willing to let that go?

flat citrus
#

YEs

#

its a business

#

they'll write it off and then make another

solid hinge
#

Also I don't really know but people don't realize that AAA games are really hard to make

zinc vessel
#

Holy shit. Sneaking pulse(soundtrack) is amazing

solid hinge
#

it's not some conspiracy

tight kettle
#

Dice isn't obliged to release DLC for money

solid hinge
#

AAA games are harder to make

#

it's bleeding edge tech

tight kettle
#

What is your point exactly?

icy sluice
#

I mean 1 is an STD riddled cum stain on the series

solid hinge
#

the frostbite engine is a fucking cutting edge piece of tech

tight kettle
#

The base games where roughly the same size

solid hinge
#

it's not easy to work with at all

#

it's hard to probably make content

#

only now are they slightly considering having users have the frostbite editor

#

back when bf3 came around they would crash trying to compile maps

tight kettle
#

Im glad they can't split the bfv playerbase now

#

That's all

flat citrus
#

@solid hinge if your sole business is to make a game and thats all you do. EA has the talent and budget but they arent making games how we would want them too. They have a quarterly and they have public stocks. They have to stand out and to make a profit. So, they go business route and try to squeeze every inch of a dollar out of its consumer. Only issue is they destroy the fabric of what a game is

solid hinge
#

Of couse they can't reach for deadlines with some things; it's hard to program that stuff

#

Perhaps but I'm sure that DICE has control over their game

#

It's not like EA really calls the shots for the most part;

flat citrus
#

Thats fine but when you have over three AAA games in a row tank because of live service or micro transactions. They need a different business model

#

it aint working

#

EA does call the shots man

#

they are the producer

#

they fund the studio with obligations

solid hinge
#

They do but only for the financial technicalities

flat citrus
#

nope

#

EA contracts require micro in them

solid hinge
#

They're not going to kill off battlefield because of one game

flat citrus
#

NEver said that

#

they'll make another

tight kettle
#

Why exactly is the current service bad?

solid hinge
#

the dlc one?

tight kettle
#

No the bfv service

flat citrus
#

Live service is fine

#

it just doesnt work for certain games

#

DLC works but separates the community

serene wyvern
#

It is true

flat citrus
#

They're goals though are to sell us in a live service micro trans

#

in order to keep a service up it has to be continually funded

#

so thats where micro comes in

zinc vessel
#

daggum trans

flat citrus
#

only problem is with bf5 its stuff their community doesnt care much about nor is it appealing to want to buy

icy sluice
#

I hate that I have to actively avoid vehicle maps

#

As a fucking tanker

solid hinge
#

I feel like if they had their maps have a little of every front then people wouldn't complain

icy sluice
#

It's great to know that most tank battles in history used indirect explosives instead of cannons

flat citrus
#

Its not so much the lack of content

solid hinge
#

because the problem with the live service is that they're promising later fronts with their live service model

#

this can fail at any time

flat citrus
#

its how they responded to their community that didnt help

#

yup

solid hinge
#

They should have had 1 map be d day, another be narvik, etc etc

flat citrus
#

and if the game doesnt meet its numbers they wont make those add ons in the live service. There is zero obligation for them to do so

#

since we didnt technically pay for the live service

#

From what i understand the live service is supposed to go through the war early to end war in chronological order

solid hinge
#

the tides of war thing where maps come after a certain time can fail at any time

#

At the same time they have alot of people figuring this sort of stuff out

#

this is dice we're talking about

flat citrus
#

EA/DICE

#

It aint just DICE anymore

#

EA bought them

icy sluice
#

Yeah that's what a publisher does

solid hinge
#

yeah but the main point is

flat citrus
#

DICE is a satellite studio now

solid hinge
#

They know this sort of stuff from the start

icy sluice
#

It's like Activision Treyarch, Infinity Ward and Sledgehammer

flat citrus
#

@icy sluice Publishers dont always buy studios.

#

@icy sluice Yes, when they get big enough they can buy studios

solid hinge
#

They know that their franchise is popular enough for people to buy it

#

even without backlash

flat citrus
#

debatable

solid hinge
#

they have done calculations of this

flat citrus
#

even if they do it wont sell like they wanted

solid hinge
#

I mean

flat citrus
#

they are making a lot of these games now to a general audience

#

not just its fanbase

#

Thats what happened with Star Wars Battlefront 2015

tight kettle
#

What are you getting at

#

You seem very aggressive

flat citrus
#

it was designed to be sold to everyone. So they dumbed down the gameplay

#

IF you take me as aggressive i apologize.

serene wyvern
#

Not aggressive, but often times people who have meaning seem forceful.

flat citrus
#

I'm just upset they are delaying everything in the game

#

its a pattern

solid hinge
#

also the sales figures reached fine for bf2 and they still cut off live support

icy sluice
#

I hate that I can't uninstall BF1 because I have no idea if they're gonna do "Surprise, here's something for BFV!" So, I guess I am playing... I dunno, Garry's Mod, Ravenfield, maybe Roblox, I have no fucking clue.

willow creek
#

Should I buy BFV?

icy sluice
#

Think on it

solid hinge
#

so that makes no sense because you state that bfv would die if sales went down

zinc vessel
#

go for it, up to you

flat citrus
#

Wait to buy BF5

icy sluice
#

Read up oon it @willow creek

flat citrus
#

itll go on sale

icy sluice
#

I already pre-ordered it

flat citrus
#

ugh

solid hinge
#

I wanted to buy it on christmas

icy sluice
#

Beta sold me on gameplay

willow creek
#

My milsim says they are going to move to BFV

flat citrus
#

dont ever preorder games guys it doesnt help anything

willow creek
#

So might as well get it for Christmas

solid hinge
#

that's interesting spooky

tight kettle
#

Im buying it on day -11

icy sluice
#

Yeah, it's about the same as regularly buying it here

willow creek
#

I’m not preordering it hell no

icy sluice
#

I know what I am getting into it

#

So, might as well buy ahead of time and get in earlier

tight kettle
#

My time is worth more than a meaningless discount

solid hinge
#

wait

#

do you think at all - the game can indeed suceed

#

or are you talking about certain buts that can happen

flat citrus
#

it wont

#

its too late now

tight kettle
#

Lol

solid hinge
#

but didin't bf4 have worse rep?

flat citrus
#

nope

solid hinge
#

It did

flat citrus
#

bf4 at launch was awful tho.

tight kettle
#

Just stop.

flat citrus
#

was terrible server issues and rubber banding

#

loved that game tho

icy sluice
#

I doubt tha t it'll flop

willow creek
#

Y’all remember Commander Mobile

tight kettle
#

Don't buy into it if the game fails

icy sluice
#

Y'all remember 1942?

solid hinge
#

it was also nothing else but a marketing scheme of levolution and a continuation / reskin of bf3

willow creek
#

Everyone remembers 1942 obviously

tight kettle
#

Why even buy it at a discount

icy sluice
#

Yeah, that was the joke

#

whoooosh

solid hinge
#

it had nothing really new to the table

icy sluice
#

3 was better than 4, change my mind

solid hinge
#

except levolution

flat citrus
#

True but why fix something that isnt broken?

willow creek
#

NO HUMVEES >:((

serene wyvern
#

I enjoyed BF4 the most, interestingly enough

solid hinge
#

it removed some core mechanics, like airfields

flat citrus
#

bf3 was the better one tho

#

bad company 2 was peak

serene wyvern
#

Yikes

willow creek
#

Bad company made me hard

serene wyvern
#

well i respect this opinion

solid hinge
#

Only reason why I was captivated by bf4 was because I was new to the series

#

at the time

icy sluice
#

I enjoyed Bad Company 2

solid hinge
#

and the levolution thing is a good marketing tactic

willow creek
#

Yeah same

solid hinge
#

ehh

willow creek
#

On the 360 I enjoyed the campaign

flat citrus
#

They dont use the term levolution anymore

willow creek
#

The bugs were the only thing I didn’t like

icy sluice
#

Destructive Environments

solid hinge
#

it's strange people want to go back to 1942 but also love bfbc2

#

bc2 was a fuck you to the PC gaming community at the time, mind you

serene wyvern
#

Rather, a different approach

icy sluice
#

BFV is kinda going back to 1942

willow creek
#

Is Project reality still a thing?

icy sluice
#

For the most part

solid hinge
#

yep

#

still played a fuckton

icy sluice
#

1942 was the shit when I was a kid, then Vietnam

#

The fucking punji sticks

tight kettle
#

Ya

willow creek
#

Vietnam was a Reskin tbh

icy sluice
#

It was

#

And it was still fun

solid hinge
#

I with they had modding / invested some time

#

for the newer ones btw

#

Why do you guys think the series doesn't have modding nowadays

icy sluice
#

The gunplay was the sore on 1942 and Vietnam though

flat citrus
#

BFBC2 had backlash hell yeah. DICE was trying to stick guns in dlc and shit and people flipped

#

so they made all the dlc free

solid hinge
#

okay so wait

#

with modding and all

#

I think it's really because modding is really hard to implement for frostbite

willow creek
#

Hey did it for BF2

solid hinge
#

that was refractor engine stuff

#

no destruction to work with

flat citrus
#

they removed self hosting servers and modding after bf2

#

which was a huge issue with the community

solid hinge
#

yeah but there has to be an actual reason besides "ea hates the player"

flat citrus
#

now that i think of it every battlefield had some fucking bullshit arount it lol

#

the reason was money buddy

solid hinge
#

It can't be because they're anti consumer because think about it

willow creek
#

Milsim is probably dead for BF

flat citrus
#

yes

#

you can gain a profit off dedicated servers you "rent" from them only

#

they would take a cut of the servers we would rent

solid hinge
#

they would probably make it so that you bought server software if it were truly possible

#

They could have easily done that

flat citrus
#

wtf is server software lol?

solid hinge
#

???

icy sluice
#

"Come back when ya get some money buddy! [Maniacal Laughter]"

BIoshock

icy sluice
#

👉🏼 YES

zealous void
#

I love Bioshock

solid hinge
#

dedicated server software is needed to run servers my guy

zealous void
#

All of them

#

mmmmm

flat citrus
#

Dude

#

plz

solid hinge
#

that's how you literally have player run servers

flat citrus
#

no

zealous void
#

Just wish they weren't called Big Daddy's lmao

flat citrus
#

you arent following

#

DICE took away self hosted servers from the community after bf2

#

they wanted us to go through them to rent them

willow creek
#

BF4 server thumbnails with asses

flat citrus
#

this was so they can get a cut of the server rentals

solid hinge
#

I know they could have instead had a system where you bought software for running dedicated servers

#

but they didin't for other reasons

icy sluice
#

It could be worse... it could be... p2p

#

dun dun duuuun

slate zephyr
#

Well now their no dlc pass so its ok by me

icy sluice
#

Fuck that would be horrible to play

solid hinge
#

Also bf servers might be very intensive to run

flat citrus
#

lol

willow creek
#

No gay ass premium pass

slate zephyr
#

I bought a server once on bf4 when they first came out

flat citrus
#

yes but dice has no obligation to make future content if the game doesnt sell well

slate zephyr
#

It was bad

solid hinge
#

what

willow creek
#

My friends would always leave me out because I didn’t have Final Stand or Second assault

flat citrus
#

^^^

solid hinge
#

you're switching back to the bfv argument?

#

we're talking about servers

#

and modding

slate zephyr
#

Cas they had issues so i had a server i could not do admin stuff to lol

solid hinge
#

You have to understand this shit isn't easy to use

#

it's just not

flat citrus
#

I'm not arguing anything. This is fact bud

solid hinge
#

Their maps require alot of fucking people to work on

#

have you seen the screenshots of them

flat citrus
#

Why are you defending a business Tuaam?

#

Do you wear supreme or something?

solid hinge
#

?????

icy sluice
#

Just picturing Drunkkz3 whipping all the other playtesters atm

flat citrus
#

like its a business they make money off of you

willow creek
#

It’s a company

flat citrus
#

Yup

violet locust
#

You do know that Premium Pass guaranteed content right?

flat citrus
#

Companies are designed to sell you something

willow creek
#

It’s not like WW3 with a indie development team

icy sluice
#

btw, I just realized nothing is stopping you from towing an enemy which can lead to some real trolling

solid hinge
#

And so? Dice was still a company back then and they did modding

#

they weren't at all an indie company

#

and EA was in control of them at that time too

#

Wait nvm

#

sorry

flat citrus
#

ugh

#

just

#

no

#

lol

willow creek
#

It’s alright mate

Again what are you trying to achieve

Dude you're literally posting the same points over and over

tight kettle

Besides stirring up shit

They are valid points 😃

YOu majored in COUNTER STRIKE?

Okay, what is the best form of data storage for a multiplayer game, thats not local?

EA is shitty but hey, fuck it, the game is fun

Que the Michael Jakson gif eating popcorn

solid hinge

Okay, what is the best form of local storage, for a single player game?

willow creek
#

At the end of the day, we are all just a bunch of smelly nerds that play video games

flat citrus
#

I wish i was smelly

icy sluice
#

I'd get that for ya right now but I am not feeling in the mood to type in "Michael Jackson Popcorn"

solid hinge
#

How do you decide if a game uses multiple cores?

No answer?

Celestial World’s fastest Typer 2018

solid hinge
#

It depends on the game, first off

#

Multicore might not be suited for certain games

willow creek
#

Typer not Tyler what the fuck?

solid hinge
#

What does that mean? @willow creek NekoClap

#

I did not ask that

#

@solid hinge

#

and secondly you need to serialize whatever data goes into your save files

icy sluice
#

My fastest wpm is like 98 but I am fucking tired

solid hinge
icy sluice
#

So it's like 68 or whatever

solid hinge
#

you're asking me very generic questions

flat citrus
#

I like serial

icy sluice
#

What's your favorite?

solid hinge
#

I do not expect you to know the answers to even basic questions

flat citrus
#

OWNED

solid hinge
#

You have to start somewhere

#

Like, how the fuck would I know about multicore requirements? First of all, it depends on the game you're making

icy sluice
#

Just called him stupid and I can't even tell if you meant it

flat citrus
#

YOu worked on a indie game no?

solid hinge
#

Oh my bloblul

flat citrus
#

OR did you just play it?

solid hinge
#

iyes

What game bruv?

flat citrus

Dont shit on me when im being genuine as you defend a fortune 500 company

solid hinge

solid hinge

What companies would you invest in

you need to finish actually

pure veldt
#

my wife did

flat citrus
#

😉

solid hinge
#

I really like the attrition mechanics

tight kettle
#

Friends and I are actively looking for games to kill time but everything is boring

solid hinge
#

They make teamplay more dependent and tight

pure veldt
#

^

compact oxide
#

Same tbh

flat citrus
#

@solid hinge Didnt you hear? The attrition mechanics got delayed. They're in the roadmaps now 😉

compact oxide
#

@tight kettle have you tried Scum?

tight kettle
#

No. I don't see it being anywhere near worthy

solid hinge
#

What's scum?

#

I've heard of it

pure veldt
#

now now, no post release jokes

flat citrus
#

It got super popular right before black out came up

#

then it dropped super hard

#

looked cool tho

solid hinge
#

Looks to be an open world game

#

like Rust

flat citrus
#

its BR

solid hinge
#

Nothing special about it to me tbh

flat citrus
#

but i think without borders right?

pure veldt
#

thats why you stay away from AAA title ideas

tight kettle
#

Pubg is/was also popular. But terrible.

solid hinge
#

it's a buggy mess imo

#

Dunno if the arma mod was worse tho

pure veldt
#

2 games ill never load on my machine, PUBG and Minecraft

flat citrus
#

pubg is my favorite out of them all but yes its horribly buggy at times

icy sluice
#

Minecraft is good with like 50 mods

flat citrus
#

i actually really dont care for Fortnite. Its too meh and faddy now

tight kettle
#

The only thing pubg does perfectly is simulate ALS

flat citrus
#

ALS?

solid hinge
#

@pure veldt what exactly is wrong with minecraft on your machine

pure veldt
#

its a virus

#

to humanity

flat citrus
#

lmao

solid hinge

Ah I see

¯_(ツ)_/¯

pure veldt

i only have 1.5 modes, kill .. and achieve

compact oxide

FTB Minecraft is a classic

pure veldt

pubg requires patience

#

Tekkit Classic is better imo

pure veldt

fk.. that

flat citrus
#

Minecraft is fun. The new addons for dungeons coming out looked cool

solid hinge
#

it has some cool shit

compact oxide
#

Terraria is 👌 too

flat citrus

terraria is amazing yes

pure veldt

i also cannot play any games that punish me for dying since i have a family

BR will never be a thing

I reckon the same with milsims

fluff in messages annoys me

I am depressed I need bullets

pure veldt

tight kettle
#

Zoz

solid hinge
#

I'm a programmer I need a Bullet.class

flat citrus
#

ill fluff your fluff

icy sluice
#

fluff harder

compact oxide
#

Fluff helps you get over that word count for your essay

solid hinge
#

which is used by Gun.class

flat citrus
#

FluffING

#

Dude word count is my fluffing jam son

#

my old manager used to tell me i would fluff

#

Now i work in finance lol

Seriously though you work as a programmer Maj?

#

comp sci major or something

flat citrus
#

@pure veldt Dont respond hes baiting

compact oxide
#

I did comp sci for a whole semester

#

Then ran out of money and got a job, and haven't looked back

pure veldt
#

its ok im a shark

tight kettle
#

Majic is a game programmer

compact oxide
#

For EA? 🤔

tight kettle
#

Fuck graphics though. Only coding

pure veldt
#

fk no, AAA is satan

flat citrus
#

@pure veldt I'm waiting for you to eat the Minnow

compact oxide
#

Yeah that seems to be the gist I get

tight kettle
#

Just make aaaa games

pure veldt
#

jumps out of water and eats entire fisherman

flat citrus
#

AHHAHAHA

#

Yup AAA is satan

compact oxide
#

Just make double A games, they're more useful

pure veldt
#

i write c... # games

solid hinge
#

Funny I write my games in java

#

granted they're simple ones

tight kettle
#

I want to learn c++

pure veldt
#

no you dont

flat citrus
#

lol

tight kettle
#

Ya I do

compact oxide
#

I write my games in swift Kappa

flat citrus
#

C++ and python

tight kettle
#

I want to play in ue4

flat citrus
#

popular recs right now

solid hinge
#

To be fair it's becoming less and less popular

#

unless it's ue4 stuff

#

surely you can use blueprints though

pure veldt
#

just use blueprints and move on with your life, learn C++ after you realize ue4 isnt for indie

flat citrus
#

companies still like that you know C++

tight kettle
#

Ya this is true

#

Why

#

Ue4 is great for fps

pure veldt
#

unity is easier to get started in and has a lot of assets to just prototype quickly

#

meh..

solid hinge
#

Majicpanda have you used winforms before?

#

I was planning on using it for a settings thing for a game

pure veldt
#

no, i literally went from web dev CSS PHP etc all my life to C# game dev

tight kettle
#

Im not good enough at math to make my own engines

pure veldt
#

fk math

solid hinge
#

nick it's not that hard

pure veldt
#

i dont use it, unity has helper methods for math 😄

#

esp vector maths

tight kettle
#

Guy. Games = math

solid hinge
#

really, as long as you know algebra and trig you're good

flat citrus
#

isnt engine building a group collab? Idt single individuals make engines

pure veldt
#

i dont know trig

#

or geometry

#

or algebra

solid hinge
#

What?

pure veldt
#

MIS major

tight kettle
#

Tell that to John carmack

solid hinge
#

Ohh

pure veldt
#

i literally just know c# and released a game with knowing zero math.. you do not need math to make a game

tight kettle
#

He will shit in your cereal and call you babydoll

pure veldt
#

dont care what anyone says

solid hinge
#

I mean

#

I sorta made an engine by myself

pure veldt
#

Mathf.Atan , there's all kinds of crap to use in unity

#

it just exists

flat citrus
#

Unity is good

pure veldt
#

fk writing math

solid hinge
#

I needed some algebra and at best basic trig for targeting and stuff

flat citrus
#

its just not great

#

its super diverse tho

pure veldt
#

yea i mean its stellar for 95% of devs

flat citrus
#

yup

pure veldt
#

the top tier go to ue4 eventually

flat citrus
#

what games having issues with unity atm

#

?

pure veldt
#

but that requires C++ and a much worse community and available assets

solid hinge
#

ue4 has splines doesn't it

#

I wanted to play with those

pure veldt
#

basically ue4 = good luck you're on your own

compact oxide
#

Just make your own OS to post it on

pure veldt
#

maybe they have a better networking lib i dunno

flat citrus
#

Ah escape from tarkov. From what i understand the devs are very limited with the game because of unity and wish they didnt use it

pure veldt
#

unity networking is trash

solid hinge
#

I think max players for unity is less than unreal

flat citrus
#

It also has zero AA filters from what i was reading

solid hinge
#

In unreal you can have games like squad and fortnite

#

with 100 players

pure veldt
#

i got a 20v20 working no problem without optimization for a top down shooter

tight kettle
#

Unity is for girls

flat citrus
#

Squad runs like shit. Great game though

solid hinge
#

no latency issues

#

?

pure veldt
#

but yea, in unity you'd want to stop around 64 like BF

solid hinge
#

Depends on the game

pure veldt
#

nope, all data kept under 1200 bytes per packet

tight kettle
#

Bf unity engine confirmed

solid hinge
#

if it's a 3d game then 64 might be too much

pure veldt
#

nah you just nee this networking asset called Bolt

#

i had auth servers, rounds changing, carrying to new map, intermission

solid hinge
#

so do people use that all the time or do game studios make their own lb

pure veldt
#

real good proto

tight kettle
#

Seriously though. What is a decent source to learn c#

flat citrus
#

There is an app on android that helps yo learn c#

solid hinge
#

Probably look at some books or take a course

#

if you're in college there's a good change they have c#

tight kettle
#

I know some css/javascript/action script from when flash was a thing

pure veldt
#

i didnt bother learning any C#, i just started doing tutorials and learning what i need to make games

solid hinge
#

Java or C#

pure veldt
#

learning all of C# ahead of time wouldnt have helped me, but that's just my learning style

solid hinge
#

and maybe C++ if you're doing unreal

flat citrus
#

@tight kettle look up the app learn c# by sololearn

#

its free

tight kettle
#

I will write it down

solid hinge
#

Also if it helps nick Java and C# are the same

#

literally

pure veldt
#

wtf

solid hinge
#

I was lying that's not true

flat citrus
solid hinge
#

but they're fairly similar
