Ghost haven’t port over yet

[rich tundra]

That wasn't the original point

[split osprey]

It's about to

[rich tundra]

You said last gen games looks shit

[polar wren]

Ok and?

[split osprey]

No, they don't

[polar wren]

not part of the main argument

[rich tundra]

Finally you got nothing to say

[polar wren]

like it's your opinion

the you came crying about mine

[split osprey]

Quit it. I mean whatever you believe is your personal thingy. So, just quit crying xP

[polar wren]

which dissolved into this mess

[split osprey]

You dissolved this into a mess

[rich tundra]

Crying bro you are the one who got hurt when I said starfield looks awful

[split osprey]

Cuz, we shared our opinions, just like you did

[polar wren]

don't try that lame stunt, you came in and bitched about it

[split osprey]

Sadly you weren't able to tolerate it

[polar wren]

both of you cry babies, then i called on your lame ass arguments

[random tartan]

Sorry, old gen, 360 era this whole last, new,and old, ancient gen thing is so confusing. People say last gen as in 360, other people say last gen as in Xbone.

[rich tundra]

Giving opinions is bitching somehow just because it different than yours hmmm

[split osprey]

I'd say I pointed out what I feel isn't wrong, but your sorry heart couldn't take it

[sacred iron]

I assumed the new consoles were considered current now since they’ve been out for a while

[polar wren]

I started with saying it looks good then you who hasn't played it at all bitch about how I'm wrong

[rich tundra]

Last gen will be ps4 and xbox One

[split osprey]

ONLY

[random tartan]

People also say that’s new gen not current.

[split osprey]

If you're talking about "last gen" in particular

[random tartan]

No one is ever on the same exact page when talking about console gen eras

[rich tundra]

Nobody is bitching or crying bro except you because you couldn't handle a different opinion sadly

[sacred iron]

That would seem logical

[split osprey]

I did. Are you proficient in reading?

[charred quail]

Consoles dookie

[random tartan]

PC will always be master race

[split osprey]

Then, refrain from calling it a last gen... That's more than last

[charred quail]

https://tenor.com/view/dab-dabbing-kid-dab-kid-dabbing-cool-dab-gif-20792759

[sacred iron]

If ps5 is current then 4 is last

[split osprey]

Totally

[rich tundra]

Yeah that's what I am saying

[split osprey]

But, Zozo says "last gen is different for everyone"

[sacred iron]

Wait so what were you saying about not calling it last gen

[rich tundra]

Listen bro

[split osprey]

Zozo said that "last gen is different for everyone". What I said was meant to correct him

[split osprey]

This

[charred quail]

https://tenor.com/view/simpsons-monkey-fight-monkey-gif-5219878

[rich tundra]

Bro said last gen games looks shit in comparison to current gen but honestly isn't the case because we got some really beautiful looking games on last gen.

[split osprey]

I mean you can't have many "last gen"

[sacred iron]

Zozo’s statement doesn’t need correcting, literally all they said is that people online all use different terms so it’s confusing to follow who is referring to what

[random tartan]

Yes

[split osprey]

I would say second last gen, or something more than that

[rich tundra]

I never seen someone mentioning ps3 when they talking about last gen

Never

When current gen is ps5 then ps4 will be last gen

[sacred iron]

At ‘second last gen’ I just hear people say the console name lol

[rich tundra]

It is what it is man

[random tartan]

Old-> last -> new (current) people get confused when people say last gen is PS3 era and new gen is PS4/5.

[split osprey]

Then, we are on the same page! I said the same that "last gen" is basically used for the previous generation, not "generations"

[sacred iron]

The world if people just called them by their console names instead

[random tartan]

Facts

[split osprey]

If, I've to use previous gen for ps2, then it'd be hard to understand

[random tartan]

All these gens of consoles is just confusing as a whole. Everyone should move to PC. It’s just New and Old gen. That’s all.

[rich tundra]

Bro seriously nothing is confusing it's so obvious what will be last when you have current console available

[charred quail]

Ponies still call their ps5 "next-gen" when it has been holding back game development for years now

[rich tundra]

But let's move on

[split osprey]

Old gen is a singular verb. Idk how difficult it's gonna be to comprehend

Peace out!

[sacred iron]

You say that, but people kept calling the ps5 ‘next gen’ a whole year after it launched. Unfortunately there’s no defacto term. Best just to ask for the console name when people mention it so we can be sane

[random tartan]

[rich tundra]

Bro just day before yesterday final fantasy released yeah it is timed exclusive but it is currently an exclusive for ps5

[rich tundra]

Yeah that's true that people still call ps5 next gen which is current gen now

[charred quail]

The new final fantasy can't even run properly on its intended platform, on performance mode it's a blurry mess

[random tartan]

One time I saw PS4 classified as a next-last gen. He described it as PS4 started the new era but last generation of the new gens.

[sacred iron]

Huh

[random tartan]

Yea.

[rich tundra]

Launch issues bro happening with every game releasing nowadays

[random tartan]

I see why he say it but confusing also to most people. If they don’t understand it.

[summer furnace]

I'm bitter the ps4 I use isn't the 4 pro model, since 2019

My brother bought the 500gb slim instead back then

[sacred iron]

But when is pc 2 launching

[lost sluice]

its called linux

u can do it now

[random tartan]

PC2? PC is always PC and always will be named PC.

[random tartan]

I saw Linux and thought of this meme

[lost sluice]

theres modded battlefield servers in rust with over 300 players in them

where u start with several guns and stuff

kinda fun

[sacred iron]

No they announced it 10 years ago
Sequel being made by Todd Howard, with a third by gabe newel

[lost sluice]

people keep talking to me in voicechat after im downed but im like bro i got music on i cant hear you

[charred quail]

fuck these ping abusing cunts man

I keep dying behind cover because they have high ping

how does that make sense

[lost sluice]

bad netcode? games should favor low ping not the other way around

[charred quail]

it's cod so yeah it's dogshit netcode

look at this

wtf

[lost sluice]

haha

unplayable

[charred quail]

my shots don't even register firing at these cunts

[lost sluice]

ye idk why a server would accept pings like that

do you have your regional settings off?

or maybe there isnt any

[charred quail]

there isn't

they are using some exploit to get into this server

[lost sluice]

oof

[charred quail]

I have 18 ping

[lost sluice]

ye thats good

[charred quail]

shots don't register when fired at dickheads with 150 ping

[lost sluice]

report them

lol

[charred quail]

lmao they also have rapid-fire macro so they can fire the semi-auto pistols fully automatic

truly pathetic

[lost sluice]

play battlefield instead then

i wonder whats going on with arc raiders. havent seen anything about it since after the playtest ended

but theyre probably just hard at work

[sacred iron]

They’ve got the finals they are probably putting more effort into

But given helldivers, I wouldn’t be surprised if they pivot back to pve lol

[charred quail]

playtest was shitty so I guess they canned it

[lost sluice]

lol

[charred quail]

it was awful

[lost sluice]

i dont think were allowed to talk about it

[charred quail]

doesn't matter, fuck them

trash ass game

[lost sluice]

haha

[sacred iron]

I was more interested in it when it was that coop style shooter

[charred quail]

yeah, they threw away that for a shitty generic extraction shooter

[rich tundra]

What happened to marathon

[charred quail]

in development hell

bungie is in shambles

[rich tundra]

😔

[sacred iron]

I was reading through marathon’s description online when it was announced and I can’t make heads or tails of it

Doesn’t make much sense

[charred quail]

it's an extraction shooter, that's all we know for now

[lost sluice]

wait they're rebooting the marathon franchise?

[charred quail]

just borrowing the name

no relation

[rich tundra]

I want to see how will it look

[lost sluice]

ah

[charred quail]

same name and same developer but there's no other connection

marathon was basically halo

[sacred iron]

They blather on about players ‘discovering new paths and putting their name on discoveries’, and claim it’s some huge expansive open world, potentially procedurally generated. How can you possibly have a world so vast that people can discover things other haven’t while still actually allowing for PvP in consistent deliveries?

[charred quail]

LMAO it keeps happening

fucking put a region lock in the game

[lost sluice]

ye

u cant have pings like that

so when i play warzone its the same thing?

[charred quail]

yeah it's even worse in warzone

[lost sluice]

damn

[sacred iron]

Although how would you all feel about a procedurally generated extraction shooter like they seem to be doing

[charred quail]

if it's done well I'll play it

it most likely won't be

[random tartan]

If WZ was blackout I’ll play it. Other than that, BR games is trash asf

[random tartan]

PoC

[sacred iron]

I can’t see how else they can push this player drive narrative if it’s not

Cause say it’s some absolutely chonkers huge map, it’ll take a week for people to discover everything

unless they do what destiny does and have some complicated set of hidden puzzles to open up some new area

To that degree, I can kind of see their direction. But it still sounds rather fuzzy

[random tartan]

Ngl, I went back to Remnant II.

[sacred iron]

No clue what that is

[random tartan]

Games nowadays is boring 🥱. Playing this as I play Destiny 2 and 2042 and cod

[random tartan]

It’s a great TPS PvE game

[sacred iron]

4 games at once? Must have lots of free hands

[random tartan]

I have a job as well.

One time I was at 7 games at once per season.

[sacred iron]

At work right now, drg is my goto

My trick is to not dedicate myself to any one thing and just play whatever the hell I want at the time

[random tartan]

Same. But I keep up with a lot of games at once for each season.

[sacred iron]

Although that does mean I’m not one of those thousand hour gamers

[random tartan]

Once The First Descendant and XDefiant drops. Imma be adding them to my list

Only 2 games in waiting on for this year.

[lost sluice]

so back in some crysis game i used to annoy people by broadcasting the music i listened to in the lobbies

should i start doing that again?

hm i cant seem to find crysis 3 anymore

mightve been bought on another account

damn then i dont know

[random tartan]

oof

[charred quail]

close

[random tartan]

i been done 2 weeks ago

[charred quail]

people are so mad I'm using the full auto deagle lmao

it's awful

there's a cheater on my team locking on enemies behind wall but he sucks

lol

[random tartan]

how do you know if there is some enemies behind the wall?

[charred quail]

he uses aimbot on xbox

tracked people through wall, tried to wall bang them, still died to shotgun

[random tartan]

maybe he was trying to get wall bang kills, and used his minimap or UAV. or he saw them before he got behind a wall

[charred quail]

nah

his crosshair was locked onto the guy

tracked him from behind the wall till he jumped out of cover, but still died because it was the 1-shot shotgun

[random tartan]

im just saying ok

[charred quail]

this camo is pog

SND moment

[random tartan]

Plain black color is better

[charred quail]

yeah I use black to hide the 3d printed plastic on the AMP attachments

[random tartan]

I like it because I don’t like shiny things. Hence why outfits and weapon camos in every game black.

Or more black than not

[charred quail]

mcw is still the the most broken, skill-less gun

jeez

I feel greasy using it

[shadow sierra]

Bro I didn’t even buy mw3 and it still feels crusty

[charred quail]

there's literally zero recoil on that gun no matter how shit you try to build it

of course pro players flock to it because they are worthless without it lmao

[summer furnace]

Crash bandicoot can't go one game or two without changing dev teams
#other-games message

[charred quail]

lol

they are stopping support for the rumble game right

[summer furnace]

Yes tomorrow last content update, game lasted 9 months like nitro fueled

[charred quail]

well at least they are releasing all battlepass content for free

[summer furnace]

Enough to return to it

[charred quail]

yeah like all 500 unlockables or something

[austere sonnet]

Should’ve been day one

[charred quail]

kek

[summer furnace]

But neither games have pc version

[summer furnace]

With events rewards, and mtx is getting turned off

[nocturne badge]

I'd play CoD if the SBMM didn't rig matches for players to lose to try and get them to have a 50% W/L by force

because honestly gun customization is kinda enough to bring me over

[charred quail]

definitely, gun customization was the only thing that interested me

[nocturne badge]

doesn't help that Activision actively admitted that they will matchmake so that player's wins and losses will be about equal. And I don't know how I feel about using a VPN to try and bypass that specific thing

[next rapids]

same

feels too artificial, skill means nothing because one game you're against bots and another you're up against top 5%

[austere sonnet]

Activision dating app when

[random tartan]

SBMM on dating app

[austere sonnet]

probably works better than in their games

[polar wren]

What's their player count anyways, is it still counting on 3 titles, mw2, mw2.1, and warzone

[charred quail]

yeah

[polar wren]

Also I'm hearing season 2 started

And these are the numbers right now. Counting warzone, mw2, and mw2.1

[summer furnace]

7th February

[polar wren]

It's weird that I got the season 2 news like weeks after

But damn the increase of players after season 2 dropped to normal so fast

[charred quail]

oh boy I'm sure this match will go so well

[summer furnace]

Got out of prison

[charred quail]

he's using a no-recoil script

[rapid summit]

Reaching level 20 in helldivers 2

[elfin lark]

That helmet gives destiny vibes

[high haven]

truly a super citizen!

[polar wren]

Saw the recent project zomboid build 42 news. We finally got a good look at big bunkers

Now we can do some bunker survival

[spark oxide]

We just lost Creek...

[stiff panther]

not again

[elfin lark]

Creek has fallen

Millions must die

[sacred iron]

Don’t suppose there’s been any information around about the next ghost recon game?

[lost sluice]

wait they have shut down the multiplayer in crysis3? damn i wanted to play again

oh well

[random tartan]

https://youtu.be/eSa5iKZJgKY?si=q8MrlIhFKJyb0ZJH

[ivory onyx]

were not spending enough money on mtx people 😱

[next rapids]

publishers realising making shit games doesn't increase profits

hope this year is different

[empty ivy]

The industry is down that bad to see improvement. Just play indies and all that shit.

[polar wren]

Indies are the king atm

w after w

with more w's coming soon

there is so many potential indie W's that I keep forgetting some

like the war of the worlds survival game coming soon

or the drg season 5 and rouge core coming out

project zomboid build 42

slime rancher 2 upcoming updates

[short umbra]

Didn't Sony purge NaughtyDog games after TLOU2?

[short umbra]

HellDivers, Deep Rock Galactic and Battlefront Classic are great examples.

[polar wren]

i mention drg, with s5 coming soon and the new spin off rouge core

[short umbra]

I'm agreeing with your mention.

[polar wren]

ah

[short umbra]

EA's stagnated and died out honestly.

[polar wren]

terraria is getting another final update

[short umbra]

They keep pouring everything into 2042, and yet all they need to do is either do a proper legacy port of the original battlefield games with full multiplayer functionality along with their respective campaigns.

[polar wren]

phasmophobia is getting some major updates

[short umbra]

The gost hunting game?

[polar wren]

yeah, they are planning some more content, they recently updated the shop screen in preperation for it

no man sky is getting another update soon as it was teased last year (the current one wasn't the full update)

also another game is coming out of that group

[short umbra]

No Man's Sky is a great redemption arc.

[polar wren]

absolutely

[short umbra]

I'm amazed that DICE isn't filing for bankruptcy at this rate.

[polar wren]

that's because dice is apart of EA

[short umbra]

I mean let's be real, when was the last time anyone's even mentioned Battlefield outside of BF1's resurgence due to BFV's and 2042's collective failure.

[polar wren]

not alot

bf needs relevency

and honestly I hate to say it but it needs a br

i know they are overrated but they are still relevant and popular

[short umbra]

Still, EA's honestly a money launderer at this point, what could they possibly be doing that makes up for the moneypit they refuse to caurterize? Instead of keeping the 1943 and Bad Company 1 and 2 servers going and cutting off 2042's they killed not only their legacy but rather the games that were 'coincidentally' in the Portal mode. Because the Portal mode was SO bad, I was getting full Bad Company 2 servers on my 360 after 2042 failed.

[rough narwhal]

bfv and 2042 have likely sold more than bf4...

they are likely turning a profit with each entry

[short umbra]

Remember firestorm? Neither do most other people.

[polar wren]

have you seen the hype on 2042

before it launched

[rough narwhal]

and yea, they are published by EA, BF has always been a small source of income for EA, they could do with or without it honestly

[short umbra]

I knew just from the trailer that it was damned to fail. It was Battlefield's 'infinite warfare'. Flashy edit cuts to hide the lack of content, 'action' shots to artificially hype up the experience that wouldn't be delivered in full and a horrid botching of a classic rock song.

[rough narwhal]

what does that have to do with dice filing for bankruptcy or if EA should keep it or not?

[rough narwhal]

you just described any casual fps trailer ever though.. except bfv

[polar wren]

that wasn't relevant to that part, just to the part where they sold well and better then bf4

[short umbra]

Had they not tried to pander to the cod and overwatch crowd with microtransactions and 'heros' softlocking mechanics to characters, they'd then might've stood a chance.

[rough narwhal]

still dont see how that matters

[rough narwhal]

oh god not this shit take...

i thought peoples collective IQ developed past this take at this point..

[polar wren]

because it wasn't for that take on bankruptcy

i didn't intend that

[rough narwhal]

so just a random side fact for the fun of it?

[polar wren]

yeah

[rough narwhal]

ok cool..

i like turtles

[polar wren]

lol

[short umbra]

It's just a pity that EA didn't give DICE the time or freedom to make games work right at launch.

[rough narwhal]

i like how pizzadawg complains about "soft locking mechanics" when the old class system was even more restrictive...

[polar wren]

that crowd is bigger than you perceived it to be

way bigger

[rough narwhal]

and old classes is more of a hero shooter than 2042 is BESIDES the distinct characters...

https://tenor.com/view/crt-critical-race-theory-education-1619project-1619-gif-23666692

[short umbra]

I'm well aware, but the main issue with that is they sold the core identity of Battlefield, a game with dynamic destruction where you could fell an entire forest with machineguns and take down three story buildings along with skyscrapers to cringe quotes from even more mundane 'hero' characters.

[rough narwhal]

those were levolutions.. only a thing in bf4...

bf1 didnt have levolution..

[short umbra]

I mean the sound design, 'lore' if you could even call it that reeks of corporate laziness and greed meddling with potential.

[polar wren]

unless you count that arch in that desert map but no one cares for it

not even a levolution

[rough narwhal]

i mean.. the fact is "levolution" was literally a thing for a single title but people think its a staple of the bf franchise..

[short umbra]

Keep in mind Bad Company 2 had that on a more broadband scale, where almost every building was collapsible along with the HMGs of tanks and the like being able to shoot down entire forests.

[rough narwhal]

yes that was for smaller buildings though.. it didnt have levolution

destruction =/= levolution

[polar wren]

aint that just basic destruction

[rough narwhal]

^ exactly

[short umbra]

Because innovations that were the main selling point being a one note parlor trick that didn't return in future titles despite the dynamic map-changing nature of them making gameplay more fun rather stagnated a fair bit of people

[polar wren]

honestly glad to hear the words destruction, 64 players, and class system for the next game. no more trying to be different

but ima take it as a grain of salt

[rough narwhal]

honestly.. they just needed ot make bfv but in a modern setting and that would have been sick

[short umbra]

In a sense, but keep in mind having everything be truly destructible get watered down to just a few select things is a mechanical downgrade.

[polar wren]

64 players is the best one i heard out of it

I hated anything above it

[random tartan]

BF4 is the best in its franchise, excluding its launch… that shit was straight ass when it first dropped for a month or so.

[short umbra]

The promise of BFV's finite amunition for vehicles angle and dynamic fortification system was great, but as we all well remember, the game was rushed faster than CaseO running to the wafflehouse

[random tartan]

Imma miss 128p tbh

[short umbra]

So that killed its longevity in a lot of ways too.

[rough narwhal]

huh? bfv launch was actually solid..

[polar wren]

you got me on that caseoh comment.

love that dude, funny as fuck

[rough narwhal]

it really only had problems when they started patching

[short umbra]

The worn out 'woke alt history ww2' argument aside, the game's core and fundimental mechanics were constantly on the fritz and were just starting to get up to a workable state of balance, same thing with 2017 Battlefront 2 but BFV and BF2 teams were collectively pulled to make 2042 and thus leave these flawed yet potential-ridden games to rot in a limbo of incompletion

[short umbra]

"What do you mean bro's built like a 1x1 lego piece, what even IS a 1x1 lego piece"

[polar wren]

classic

[short umbra]

And the sad thing is, when Battlefront Classic collection releases on the 14th, a whole new generation will see what DICE could've done to expand upon Pandemic's foundation.

I've been replaying the classic 2005 Battlefront 2 and by GOD does it hold up.

[random tartan]

Tbh, I was expecting a remaster collection than a standard collection

[polar wren]

ngl, not a fan of the idea of remaking past bf games

[random tartan]

^

[polar wren]

ooh remake bf3. it will never be as good

[random tartan]

I don’t think dice like remaking battlefield games in general it can ruin the original feel of it.

[polar wren]

there will always be something wrong with remakes or remasters and people will be damn dissapointed

[short umbra]

Aspyer is a company that ports and upscales the original graphics of older games. They did the Tomb Raider I-III collection with upscaled graphics, along with Republic Commando.

The fact of the matter is we're getting the original 2004 and 2005 Battlefront games with full multiplayer functionality.

[polar wren]

for bf3 I believe at this point the love for it is corrupted with nostalgia. Honestly give bf3 the battefront treatment

[short umbra]

WITH all prior formerly Xbox exculisve DLC characters too.

[polar wren]

bring it back to life and have it accessible on many platforms

and gamepass

[short umbra]

Not remaking per se but adding all the original cut content from Battlefield 1 to a 'Battlefield 1' PS5, XBSX and PC with updated graphics, widened out maps and all the cut mechanics like trench system construction and grapple hooks too.

Along with campaign expansions for the different DLC themes too. A Russian Civil War, French and German campaign story would be amazing to play through. Along with the cut dismemberment system too.

[random tartan]

They can’t divide up the community of PS4 and PS5. BF1 is old asf and no longer supported.

[short umbra]

Which is why revamping it with enhanced mechanics, features, campaign stories and 128 playercount would be great reasons to justify its production

The PS4 and Xbox one can't handle the game with dismemberment features, too many things to render.

[random tartan]

It don’t have support. Why support a game when they no longer support it since.

[short umbra]

I'm talking about a remastered Battlefield 1

Not adding onto the current game that's already out

As in

[random tartan]

BF1 is to new for a remastered version or updated version of it

[short umbra]

PS5, Series X and PC version

[short umbra]

It came out seven years ago going on eight this october.

[empty ivy]

Terraria has improved so much.

The core of the game didn't really need much change.

[random tartan]

Yes but the game is still looks amazing and play well.

[short umbra]

But imagine having CoD WaW style dismemberment from shotguns, MMGs, HMGs, tank shells and other explosives.

[random tartan]

Also, why remastered a battlefield game when they can make a new one. Remastering will waste more money since they have to do everything from scratch. Compared to making a whole new game.

[short umbra]

If DICE could update BF1 to have those visceral details to where a PS4 and XBO could handle it then by all means. I just don't think that hardware could process such a strain. Plus the game's not rated for blood and gore so there's that point of contention too.

[random tartan]

Also, I don’t think BF1 will do well with 128p.

[short umbra]

Because Battlefield 1 was the last game that DICE made that's respected and held with high regard, BFV and 2042 speak for themselves. Fundamental enhancements to BF1's gameplay such as redesigned maps for larger playercounts would be awesome.

[short umbra]

It's WW1 trench warfare, it'd be a damned sight more fitting than the hodge podge of 2042.

[random tartan]

It won’t bring the players back as much. Compared to a brand new game.

[short umbra]

Maybe, but the idea of BF1 not feeling so empty would be great.

64 players just doesn't do the broad and expansive scale of WW1 justice.

[random tartan]

People tend to play a newer game than an old game. Even if it’s remastered unless it’s ancient game. That I will see.

[rough narwhal]

pacing > player count

[short umbra]

Well that is true to an extent, in a modern era set game, that's more appilible. But the pacing of a ww1 era game was nonstop madness of lines forming, collapsing then reforming within minutes, hours or days even.

[rough narwhal]

yea we are talking a casual video game here

[short umbra]

BF1 isn't casual

[rough narwhal]

...

imagine calling ANY bf title not casual

[short umbra]

On PSN at the very least, that is. It's very fast paced.

[rough narwhal]

youve said some questionable stuff, but that takes the cake

[random tartan]

Battlefield and cod is casual for fps games.

[rough narwhal]

wtf does platform have to do with anything? let alone the pace of the game doesnt solely determine if its casual or not..

all bf titles are sandbox shooters

its like.. the most casual you can get

no sbmm, no ranking system, nothing

[short umbra]

Modern Battlefield games sure, but BF1, 4 and formerly Bad Company 2 were all insanely fast-paced and required very much needed teamwork.

[rough narwhal]

its just go out there with what you want/can get and shoot other people

[short umbra]

Server autobalancing begs to differ.

And different platforms have different playerbases with their own play styles, from what I've gathered.

[rough narwhal]

these takes are just horrible..

[random tartan]

That’s different. Matchmaking is an other thing

[short umbra]

That it is but the premise is about the same of balance based off of skill.

[rough narwhal]

you talk cringe af

[random tartan]

Ummm, auto team balance is not SBMM.

[short umbra]

Not saying it is, however both are still a skill-based sorting system, no?

[rough narwhal]

"on the contrary good sir, at the core of the intention, they do set out to do the same thing my lad"

[next rapids]

completely different thing

[rough narwhal]

you have insight into the algorithm for how it does this?

[short umbra]

And sometimes you get killed once and forcibly team switched to the losing side and 'you cannot team switch due to balancing'.

[rough narwhal]

i already know the answer is no

[rough narwhal]

still not sbmm..

https://tenor.com/view/stitch-frustration-史迪奇-gif-4802586

[next rapids]

autobalancing doesn't force you to play with people at your skill level like sbmm, the lobby is still varied just not one sided

[spark oxide]

me rn

[short umbra]

Fair bit of the matches are, at least from what I've experience.

[rough narwhal]

"cant join the team that is winning by 500 points"
damn that sbmm...

[rough narwhal]

no it doesnt.. youre just an average player

[random tartan]

Tbh, auto team balancing only happens as you join the match from the start. SBMM tries to make the match “equal” on both sides of your skill gap.

Battlefield don’t have SBMM. Auto balancing is very minor but great overall.

[short umbra]

The only difference is sbmm is before a match and the autobalance is during the match, it's the same thing in terms of intent of application.

[rough narwhal]

no its not

[random tartan]

I never swap teams in a match before unless the server owner does that during the match.

[short umbra]

Only time I ever swap teams is when the one I'm on doesn't do jack shite and I'm the only person flanking to capture points.

[rough narwhal]

we need to take a step back and realize we are talking to a guy that called bf not casual.. thats what we are dealing with right now

[next rapids]

lmao

[random tartan]

Personal skill issue.

[short umbra]

If you're going to be prudish snob, then I'll just block you, because instead of having a conversation you've been snarky and passive aggressive.

[random tartan]

Battlefield is meant to have fun playing. It’s not always about winning. Winning happens overtime.

[short umbra]

How's it a skill issue when everyone just sits in the spawn as sniper and I'm one of the only three or four people trying to break out and flank for a point capture.

[short umbra]

Maybe back then, platoons and stat sweats have been plaguing servers for the past few months, on PSN at the very least you NEED to be aggressive and competitive otherwise you get steamrolled.

[rough narwhal]

worst threat ever

does he think psn is the holy grail for competitive bf?

[short umbra]

It's just how it is on BF1 PSN now. I don't know what else to say.

[random tartan]

Stats is a personal achievement. It’s never meant to be a thing to throw on people or show that you’re better than others.

Anyone can get godly stats in every game. It’s not hard tbh.

[short umbra]

Tell that to the clans that use the crutch weapons and spawn camp the entire match with 100 servicestar weapons, the experience isn't fun when you're fighting 7 people with over 4000 hours on BF1.

[rough narwhal]

hours have nothing to do with how good people are.

[random tartan]

They have personal skill issues to flex their stats

[rough narwhal]

i have like 20 hours in bf1 from 5 years ago, guaranteed i can launch it right now and top the leaderboards

[random tartan]

True

[rough narwhal]

bf is a casual boots to the ground shooter

90% of fps skills transfer between standard shooters

[next rapids]

fps skill transfers so easily in most cases. I put like 20 hours on halo 2 years ago, booted it up yesterday and got 30 kills in my second game

[short umbra]

There's a fair bit of that, sometimes it is possible to play casual but others you need to devise strategies and play competitively to counter-act the clans on the enemy team.

[short umbra]

the MCC Halo 2?

[rough narwhal]

you typically just have to shoot them before they shoot you... its honestly not that deep

[next rapids]

On halo, 2 years ago

[rough narwhal]

hardly anyone, even clans, are coordinating anything beyond having meta picks and diverse kits in pubs

[short umbra]

Oh, that makes sense.

My bad.

[short umbra]

What I'm talking about is the people that do nothing but play BF1 in their free time, so they're tweaked like methheads at the game, can barely take them down without using pack tactics.

[rough narwhal]

...

what are even pack tactics?

[timid kindle]

Cod sucks

[stiff panther]

👍 ** **

[sacred iron]

I love how every time I close a ubisoft game I get a pop up ad :)

gotta support the little guys

[spark oxide]

i love how the Helldivers community has naturally divided into 2 catagories of specialisation, one for bugs and one for bots

like- i can 1 man army any bot difficulty, but can barely withstand Challenging on Termanids

and it seems it's the same for a whole lot of others

[charred quail]

big cod streamer triggered ricochet in his warzone match, now the big cod shill accounts on twitter are on full defense mode
"our source at activision confirmed he wasn't cheating but it was a bug"

activision specifically said many times they won't speak with anyone about individual account's status

[empty ivy]

My favourit emomenet

Was when a dude recorded him plummenting down.

Cause of the free fall AC.

And then he fell down again and the went down again.

Like dude.

I'll give them credit in this.

When it comes down to making cheaters lives hell they do their best.

And the guys actual tweet he was playing like the victim.

In reality I don't know that he was cheating and I know that people (aka my friends) get falsely banned.

However I like to think when it comes to COD these people with this big ass fucking ego get brought down.

[charred quail]

oh these streamers definitely cheat

[tribal crypt]

anyone can get shadowbanned

ricochet bans however are very rare

[shut wigeon]

Around 2 weeks ago I uninstalled HLL cos the game just isn’t fun if you’re not a sniper. You just die constantly bye random shit and campers all the time. If I could play as sniper every time I would play it. The only fun in that game is sniping everything else feels like trash.

they said I was hand holding

whatever that means

man u cant do me like that, have been searching around for an ea presentation with a season 7 for a while now without any result

well I guess it's in 2 days

unless they are revealing the next bf already lmao

[lost sluice]

[rich tundra]

Yes new game hype

[austere sonnet]

For legal reason I can’t make a certain joke since I wouldn’t condone such crimes actions

[charred quail]

big oof

[sacred iron]

At an Xbox showcase?

[high haven]

The problem isn't random, it's the lack of communication if you're anything but squad leader or commander. A good commander keeps track of enemy callouts of squad leaders, and good squad leaders keep their unit in the loop of where enemies are and how to engage or where to hold up at. The problem is most of the time, commanders ain't informing their squad leaders or squad leaders don't work towards the strenghts of their unit or keeping them well in the loop.

[charred quail]

yeah, though probably just a short video

[ripe pike]

What are they gonna announce ?

[next rapids]

you know anthem isn't even that bad, i get why it failed but gameplay is fun and flying around is fun

[lost sluice]

ye anthem is nice, if that anthem 2.0 rework wouldve gone through with some more content and fixes it couldve been golden

[charred quail]

definitely wasn't a bad game

[rough narwhal]

sometimes it seems like being a decent game but a disappointment is worse than being a bad game

[next rapids]

yeah

surprisingly still a few people playing

i was able to find some others doing missions

[rough narwhal]

it blows my mind the mediocre games that people say is the worst game ever even though its objectively at worst like 5/10

think anything by blizzard (especially OW), bfv and 2042

[charred quail]

overwatch 2 is definitely a 5/10 game. It's very well made, but extremely dull

[rough narwhal]

id say its higher, but still, people act like the game installed itself, stole their credit info and put them in debt

[merry hearth]

My most popular video rn

[rough narwhal]

i dont get it

[next rapids]

in the game you need to basically do a heist of some sort but you get prep time before it starts, the goal is to destroy the environment and make the quickest path before starting the timer

i guess people liked that this one was done so swiftly

[merry hearth]

And what's funny is it's one of my earlier heists and I have one that have better routes

Like one at the shopping mall I hit it pretty well and got it done with like .5 seconds left

[random tartan]

I wish 2.0 rework dropped

[ivory onyx]

this mofo that i reinforced really dropped his hellpod on my face, so apparently you can team kill with that as well!

[nocturne badge]

How are you surprised by that?

[ivory onyx]

i was more disappointed the idiot decided to drop on me tbh

[nocturne badge]

You can also land on a tank and put a hellbomb on it

[ivory onyx]

alright well sat there on a loading screen for a good 4 minutes...guess ill just alt f4

[nocturne badge]

Yeah that happens

[ivory onyx]

listening to someones mic just pick up him walking around or sniffing gets boring

im not sure if the same dude who TKd me was also the one who minutes earlier called in a reinforcement...right on top of the orbital he just called down, thats just genius levels of pokeball throwing

[rough narwhal]

its hard as shit to see where players are on the map, you know, the whole pod taking up your screen

its probably best to just not take control of the hellpod unless you want to land on something big to take it out

[dim trench]

damn dmz just cheaterfest. should be using same anticheat as mw3 right?

[latent moat]

Ricochet more like Ricoshit

[dim trench]

gonna give bf2042 another go. something wrong weith the game. i can put an entire clip into someone and they turn around and kill me with like 3 shots. . might turn crossplay off. maybe sometype of lag

firestorm worked, it was just dumb it was behind a paywall.. and they never tried a second time, unless youre one of thos tinfoil hat people that believe tom henderson with 2042 being a BR only title..

[timid kindle]

Dark souls is better then Helldivers

[austere sonnet]

Prefer myself some bloodborne than dark souls

[random tartan]

They release a game yearly duh it won’t outsell cod

[random tartan]

Blackout is the most loved BR compared to Warzone for cod and it’s behind a paywall.

[rough narwhal]

I mean.. there are essentially two choices and cod sells a shit load so of course it would be a bigger hit.

Is there another cod br other than war zone and blackout?

[random tartan]

No

[rough narwhal]

Are you saying people liked blackout more than war zone?

[random tartan]

Yes

[rough narwhal]

That’s arguable but I really don’t care to

[random tartan]

A lot of people even from cod discord server want another Blackout.

People on X shits on WZ compared to blackout

[rough narwhal]

Sounds like general internet stuff

[random tartan]

People only like WZ because it’s free. Other than that Blackout is the most loved BR. I’m still surprised Activision don’t realize that.

[rough narwhal]

🤷

[random tartan]

People also dislike WZ due it ruining the franchise. If WZ isn’t a thing, cod will be better compared to now.

They treat their free game better than the main game

Been busy having fun using the autocannon in helldivers 2

[polar wren]

Man I just unlocked so many overclocks in drg today

I even had the same core event 3 times in a row in 3 back to back matches

The luck to have that happen

I can't wait for s5 and to have to get 12 brand new overclocks

[short umbra]

You NEED that for the automoton fights, the bugs are easy mode.

[sacred iron]

Imagine if most of them are clean

[polar wren]

I would be fucking pissed

[short umbra]

We need more Helldivers focusing on the Red Sector, it's of paramount importance to kill the Automotons and push them back as quickly as possible, they're harder hitting, more aggressive and have 1:1 armerments at times

[polar wren]

Unless it's a perfect balance

4 clean, 4 balance, 4 unstable

[polar wren]

I don't have the game but I think it's best to wait until the mech update to do a full push

Unless they dropped it but I haven't heard about it

[polar wren]

Lol, but god damn how does a company whose job is mainly checking the writing of videogames get so much hate that it makes around 144,000 people on steam to join a detector to avoid the games you are associated with

[charred quail]

Because they are woke and ruined so many games like check notes god of war, spiderman, and Alan Wake 2

[sacred iron]

What are any of these things?

[charred quail]

They could have won game of the millennium without sweet baby's involvement

[polar wren]

From what I'm hearing is that someone from that company got pissy and started a hate campaign against the creator of the detector but failed because they got punished on twitter for targeted harassment

[charred quail]

It's literally gamergate 2.0

God I hate gamers so much

[polar wren]

Totally a womp womp moment

New heavy armor in helldivers 2

[polar wren]

honestly hilarious how fast Suicide Squad has fallen out of favor.

especially for a "live service" game

weirdly, the game was hitting mostly positively but they can't even perform well, honestly I could say one of the worst performing games of the franchise as Gotham knights actually performed better at one point (now they perform the same)

even warner bros mentions how suicide squad failed their expectations

then I learned that they are doubling down and focusing on live service, multi-platform, free 2-play, and mobile.

these fools will never learn

They had one of the best-selling games last year that wasn't a live service and they decided after the huge disappointment and terrible performing game that was suicide squad that live service is the future.

this is one of the reasons why I fucking hate triple-A studios and will never trust them. long live indie game studios

they are so fucking stupid

[random tartan]

its all about that AAAA games

[polar wren]

My hope for these fuckers has dwindled on battlefield, once battlefield fucks up again, I ain't trusting triple A or that bullshit quadruple A ever. They may shit out a golden egg but after shitting out a lot of rotten ones

Like I imagine a single image of a gold trophy (a good triple/quadruple game) then it pans out revealing that it's sitting on a large pile of shit

[random tartan]

at the end of the day, bad or not... people still play it

[polar wren]

not alot

like suicide squads numbers are barely hitting over 500

[random tartan]

in total or on steam only??

[polar wren]

it fell out from xbox's top 50

or that's what I've heard recently

fell out of sony's top 10

I got this from a video that was posted 1 hour ago. I would like to know if it's true if anyone's willing to check (doing a final rn nearly done)

[random tartan]

i see. some games cant last as long even after a bad launch. we are lucky that dice can pull it together and make battlefield decent if not better

[polar wren]

we are lucky to have a good amount of players

it got very fucking low

the lowest I believe was during before the seasons dropped

[random tartan]

the playerbase is loyal. alot of input and changes to be made.

at the end of the day, EA and DICE made the game better to bring in money. unfinished and canceled game makes them look worse than recovering

[polar wren]

that's why i has some hope which is the remaining hope I have for triple A

if they don't deliver on the next bf game

no longer trusting anything triple A

[random tartan]

I trust triple A games. I just don’t trust its leadership if it’s bad.

[polar wren]

alot of the triple a studios leadership is bad

[rocky grove]

Oh overkill

right now it's at 205 with the highest at 350

pathetic game and pathetic studio

[random tartan]

I do have to say. The player base does have a big reflection on games.

If a lot of people make videos saying it’s awful. People is gonna think it’s awful.

Dude 3 days ago final fantasy rebirth released a tripple a game by tripple a studio and game is doing great.

It's a timed PlayStation exclusive

[latent rock]

gaming is due for a crash

[rich tundra]

The day before was by indie devs isn't it?

[polar wren]

probably a golden egg apon a sea of rotten ones (other triple As), I said this before

[rich tundra]

There will be more like that just wait

Dragon dogma 2 is coming

End of this month

[polar wren]

wouldn't consider it, it was all fake, big fucking scam, wasn't made for anything else

[rich tundra]

Done by indie devs tho

[polar wren]

no they are scammer nothing more nothing less

presented a fake game, then put a bunch of assets together

[rich tundra]

Dead matter if you remember was also indie game by indie devs

Wasn't it

I am not saying indie devs are bad or anything I am just saying those ups and downs happens in both indie and tripple a side.

[polar wren]

I believe the day before wasn't a good example for a bad indie game as it was never a legit game to begin with. Gollum is a better example

a legit game that was absolutely pathetic

[rich tundra]

So yes both side has its ups and downs.

[polar wren]

but recently one side has been producing a lot of downs instead of ups. while the other is mostly ups with the occasional down

[rich tundra]

Then one side has produced the biggest scam in gaming industry also.

[polar wren]

while also making 3 of the biggest selling games in just a few months

[rich tundra]

One side has produced game of the year stuff also

[polar wren]

they also made one of the worst rated games in years

[rich tundra]

Then you got biggest scams by them

[polar wren]

you said that already

[rich tundra]

That point is still valid tho

[polar wren]

make another one

never said it was invalid

oh forgot, there was forspoken.

[rich tundra]

Check out the highest rated games you will be surprised

[polar wren]

I'm not really suprised, guessing TOTK, Hogwarts legacy, BG3, Allan wake are the top ones

but I'm not forgetting all of the garbage

forspoken, overwatch 2, mw2023, atomic heart, starfield (only liked the graphics everything was mid and most people hated it), city skylines 2, payday 3, redfall, The Walking Dead: Destinies, Skull Island: Rise of Kong, etc

then this year with, skull and bones and Suicide squad.

Big mouth.

now hear me out

[rich tundra]

Forgetting games like Alan Wake 2

Also you get games like elden ring and God of war Ragnarok

Imo both sides influence each other

[polar wren]

honestly I don't think those guys can get that big

never understood the purpose of those things or why you could only pet it once

but damn is that fucker huge

[latent rock]

i enjoyed alan wake 2 sotry was great

[polar wren]

apparently they are based on these boys

never knew they existed

[polar wren]

I do like my new fit for scout, using the new mk6 armor

[rich tundra]

I haven't played it but my friend did, he also played first one so he was hyped for the second part and it was his game of the year after spiderman 2

[sacred iron]

Wait that’s an actual thing?

The what

[polar wren]

predatory tunicate

[sacred iron]

Le pog plant

[polar wren]

And the mouth can close

It's like a trap

It sucks food into it's mouth then closes

[sacred iron]

Do people pet them

[polar wren]

In deep rock galactic

[sacred iron]

Irl

[polar wren]

It's a tiny thing

[sacred iron]

They look like they need the support

[charred quail]

new helldivers patch

adding random environmental hazards to the maps

tornados, meteor showers, etc

https://tenor.com/view/battlefield2042-2042-battlefield-battlefield-tornado-tornado-gif-21887629

[sacred iron]

what fun

[charred quail]

yup I just got blown up by a meteor

very fun

[sacred iron]

oh it's out now?

haven't seen any notes pop up

[charred quail]

yeah 1.6gb update

[stiff panther]

380mm and 120mm Orbital Barrages: Increased duration of the bombardment, decreased spread

[charred quail]

noice

[ivory onyx]

380 decreased spread...so it's like a 500kg now?

[stiff panther]

nooo

[high haven]

Easier and longer time to teamkill, very nice

Also flamethrower buff, maybe i can finally roleplay Ripley now

Very curious to the 2042 content in hell divers

[stiff panther]

if the spread is reduced, maybe not. now I won't need to exclusively run "servo assisted" just to throw it far away

I measured it, and the original radius / spread was 70m

I hope it's like 55 now

[high haven]

We should both try to throw one at the same time just to see its effect

[stiff panther]

well there is an achievement for having 6 orbital barrages active in the same place at the same time

maybe we could do that

[high haven]

Oeh 😄

[austere sonnet]

6 of them in the same place like does it have to be on the point or just near

[stiff panther]

i assume and hope it is just "close enough"

because it would be ABSOLUTELY LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE to place them in identical places

[ivory onyx]

So...if you throw a PokeBall at a teammate they can catch it? Or is that just a side "perk" of the personal shield?

[stiff panther]

oh did it get stuck to it?

it doesn't seem like it actually tracks them or anything, it should deploy where it FIRST impacted

[ivory onyx]

I threw it just as he crossed in front of me and then I saw the red laser following him

-insert oh no no no meme here-

But he was able to drop it

[spark oxide]

flamer was already strong against bugs and they've now cranked it, super-flamer

[austere sonnet]

Ngl kinda felt like it needed a buff

[spark oxide]

it cleared waves of bugs so easily

i loved it and i'll love it even more now

Stalwart still supreme, 'cus gun go brrrrr

[polar wren]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT BOYS, MINECRAFT DOGS FINALLY HAVE VARIANTS.

In the newest snapshot

[high haven]

What difficulty you pkay on?

[spark oxide]

7-9

[high haven]

Huh

Interesting

[austere sonnet]

it’s been decades

And they finally decide to do that

[spark oxide]

damn

[polar wren]

I wonder if voting the armadillo for dog armor caused it to happen

[austere sonnet]

Probably

[polar wren]

Also dog armor is op, shit can deny damage to dogs entirely

[spark oxide]

dog overhaul

[austere sonnet]

how many tnt will it take to blow one up

[polar wren]

Well dog armor has durability

But it can tank a creeper

[summer furnace]

[austere sonnet]

we need more birds

[polar wren]

You can find them in their respected biom

[austere sonnet]

Why can’t we tame rabbits

[polar wren]

What would be their use

[austere sonnet]

_ _

[polar wren]

But again parrots can be tamed

They don't do shit

[charred quail]

stalker going on gamepass?

oh no, stalker going on xbox

[summer furnace]

why oh no

nvm

[charred quail]

this xbox preview is so boring

a bunch of fighting/platforming games

[sacred iron]

Do tell if anything interesting happens

I’m on the train with no signal

[charred quail]

sure, so far nothing tho

aaaand it's over

[rich tundra]

zzzzzzzzzzzz

[high haven]

get out of here, stalker

[polar wren]

OOOH frostpunk 2

[elfin lark]

Owo they are adding to original stalker games to console

I remember seeing a small video of a test on that

[polar wren]

Honestly glad Mojang made the armadillo actually worth voting for. Dogs needed a proper update. 13 years they were added.

[next rapids]

i wish mojang would just make proper updates instead of making the community have a cage fight over which useless mob they add

[polar wren]

Where's the fun in that. Drama brings attention

[spark oxide]

the balance of the game is precious

[polar wren]

I found a comment that was damn clever, instead of the trails and tales update it's the trials and tails update

Tails for the dog update and the trials for the trial chambers

[ivory onyx]

[rapid summit]

Another day in helldivers 2 I only reach level 23

[random tartan]

HD2 boring

@charred quail the new S2 reloaded map, Das Haus is exactly from vanguard as a reskin xD

[stiff panther]

yeah it's a remaster, isn't it?

[random tartan]

basically

[stiff panther]

[random tartan]

yes i like very low res graphics on every game. im sorry xD

[short umbra]

Never played, but if it's anything like the Metro games, then I'm all in

[random tartan]

bruh they added maps view pool, finally

yes im a hardpoint main xD

[rapid summit]

I didn’t think straight about when the mechs are release in helldivers 2 I worry for the exo-44 Walker that carries rocket barrage will it be limited or infinite rockets, if it’s limited how do you reload the rocket barrage for the Walker?? I hope they are working on that

[elfin lark]

Oh god it’s so glorious

Definitely gotta buy em

[lost kelp]

Don't buy Clear Sky

Or play SoC and CoP then decide for yourself if you wanna play CS

[elfin lark]

I’ve heard clear sky ain’t the best

Honestly i’ll prolly buy it just cause fuck it we ball

[lost kelp]

It has good QoL changes and features which carried through CoP

[elfin lark]

Well i’ll prolly buy the bundle anyways so she’ll come with it

[lost kelp]

But also got a lot of things wrong

I miss faction wars tho

[elfin lark]

Honestly reckon i’ll prolly give er a try regardless

Even if she is the weakest link of the series

[lost kelp]

Also if you are ever talking to a Stalker fan don't mention G.A.M.M.A or Anomaly

Just saying

[elfin lark]

Ah yes those two

Better yet, i’ll call myself a huge fan and then say i’ve only played anomaly

[lost kelp]

Yeah.......

Don't ever come to Discord of Chernobyl

[random tartan]

im done with HD2.

now imma uninstall and never play it again.
