dawnbreak was iconic
3 4 and 5
i cant wait for them to add a canted thermal, like a sight thats both thermal and not thermal
That’ll be dope
suddenly smoke launcher meta
metro was in 5?
2x with a canted Red dot or thermal would be dope
smoke launcher is already the secret meta, gotta make your own cover on these maps
Thought I was the only one
remove blue color tint, take old assets and degrade them less, metro 4 done
what is your framerate in game ?
lol wut
just curious
lower than it should be
its much if you are closer to 60 most of the times, compared to like 90+
it might be ideal to set your screen refresh rate to 60hz
even with gsync and freesync
javelin so fun
Remove the fucking ranger from the game. Holy shit
buff ranger
its melting to high power ammo
Id like to see the real ping we have.. i dont trust the latency that is showing in the scoreboard
ranger should have like 1/10 of the hp it does now
whatever the boris turret has now
errrrr no
Seriously 1 magazine of an assault rifle doesnt even bring down half of his health at a distance of 10m
you screen resolution increases the damage and life of ranger 🙂
@hexed mango
watch me launch this game in 8k 60fps
nah, come and kill me yourself instead of getting the invincible aimbot dog to do it
Ranger and boris turret are like moskitos and flies... they exist just to annoy people.
good.
ranger is def better in 3.2 patch finally. it's tendancy to shoot at things far away is irritating but at least it is more effective
players using close combat mags and complain about low damage output to armored targets
high power does well against them
armor piercing is just a joke how easy they melt
it's almost like we have to use the tools available to us now
shh,
they expect everything can be beated easily by there own playstyle
why would you ever use close combat mags
no seriously why would you ever do that.
do you gain anything from doing that
and seeing as there's only like 2 rangers max per team. why shouldnt it be effective
its THAT LOW ?!
- it's annoying
- it's annoying
- it's annoying
- i hate it
hahahahahahahahahahahaha
yeah there are 2 per team
that has to be the worst thing to cry about hahaahahaha
he a good boi
he is my robo dog
come and kill me yourself instead of getting the invincible robot dog to do it for you
same reason boris turret was thrown into the dumpster early on
boris needs a buff still
again. 2 per team. 2.
"i cant handle the game mechanics, so i try some cod 1v1 mental breakdown on how to solve things"
same cringe as mortars in the games before it
low effort mechanic that rewards you kills for some reason
"uhh no my ads time its a tiny bit slower"
the ads change was stupid for entirely different reasons
"uhm actually" 🤓
it was stupid because it was cosmetic and also made the game feel bad for basically no reason, and also the weapons designer was quoted as not being sure if that was the right direction to take, but implemented it into the game anyway, only for it to be announced that it's getting reverted after 3 days.
so in the end its getting removed hence why so butthurt in one of the biggest updates in the game
Also, giving a shit about this over a year into the game's life is a bit late to suddenly decide that this is a problem, and also, why is this a problem but the LMG's are fine
It's getting removed because people complained. To be frank, this and the sprint to fire change are the only issues with the patch that i can see.
yeah the black screen and ads bug with sfar are not an issue 😄
600m better turn rate lis missile has entered the chat
WITH THE PATCH.
WITH THE PATCH.
black screen actually started this patch
that is in the realm of "why did you buff this"
at least for my squad
ADS bug with the SFAR is not a new issue.
i know
just amazed how that game breaking glitch is still there 😄
yeah i know, and it is annoying. to which i agree. but my issue lies with people saying "one step forward, 2-3 steps back" like is this not singularly the biggest game changing updates ever
obviously, the issues persist, and im not justifying them, but i mean idk the complaining about stuff that doesnt necessarily take away from the massive good the update has is just annoying to me
(but yeah glad ads is being reversed, and please fix sfar bug)
when you quit a match to main menu, sometimes the screen just goes black like infinite loading
happens for all in my squad, me included
I mean "one step forward, 3 steps back" is basically DICE's M.O. at this point.
yet this update is not one step forward, its a massive step forward. and while the ads bug is annoying, its not 3 entire steps back.
patch is great yeah,
On it's own, no.
gadget restrictions did not change the game in the way you think they did
yeah they quite did.
the most contested mechanic was specialist abilities which were mostly untouched
i remember when people were saying this update was gonna be a vehicle buff
yeah but the pairing of those gadgets with the open gadgets.
ammo and health crates for everybody was nice they got rid of that
and then they added the javelin/tracer dart combo.
they also got rid of like, ammo stations on the map like BFV
i mean ive been seeing a lot of healing in 3.2, not as much ammo, but more healing and reviving than before
yeah
yo real talk my weed taste like perfume i dont got time to ask reddit do i put the shit out orrrr
beyond off topic ik
do we look like the weed discord to you
stop showering in axe deodorant
fuck the closest to my keyboard
zexten thats wrong
i melt it like cheese on the stove then fill the tub and bathe in axe deodorant
pass it
to me
but yeah, DICE has a really annoying habit of having decent ideas, using them, and then forgetting about them. Either that, or they'll have a few good ideas, but there's just some major thing that's fucked up that brings down the whole experience.
same
except theyre only good ideas in my mind
sure...
There's a reason why i say that DICE's M.O. is "One step forward, 3 steps back", because that's generally what ends up happening. They never seem to keep good ideas around.
and forget cause of the adderall motivation
Do you guys think we'll be able to customize vault weapons next season?
ill stop disrespecting ur ted talk i get what u mean
doubt it
Aw
different players have different opinion on how they want there game to be played, what meta they want, and so on,
i mean we can, but barely
I mean, there are things that i feel are generally considered good ideas.
Yeah but I mean skin and charm wise
the complaining will never stop even if dice throw out a 10/10 game in pure polish and cotent
i see the quick attachment switch as a brilliant idea,
some dont
products will always have a reason for someone to complain, no one nor anything is perfect thats just the way it is i agree with you zexten
Taking ammo and HP off supports/medics from V
The Plus System is interesting but poses problems for balance.
Also it’s squad management stuff
I disagree I think it would stop if dice put out polished content on release
imagine how funny this shit would get with prox chat between both teams
i truly give zero fuck about balance, non of battlefield games have been remotely balanced,
Updates would be like 3 months apart probably lol
i could imagine the condor bombers just screaming at me as they ram
I quite like things to be balanced.
plus system needs to be in the next game
I think things being unbalanced is not very fun.
or else im not buying yo
yes, but its just not possible in a game with this scale, and the outcry for so many gadgets to bee there
Just because people want some things to be there doesn't mean they should be.
something will just be better than the rest,
do i spend money on the shop and regret it in a month like i did with mw2?
yes, yes i do
nope
bro
Pretty sure.they going to put it in future battlefields. Its the best feature of the game.
ur supposed to pressure me into buying
balance a game is such an impossible task, as a dev you mostly just tuning down whatever is good and overused, and buff the underused
concur
Buy more boins
It’s a good things they brought classes back
no
If division 2 can somewhat balance pvp and pve. Battlefield should be able to balance a PvP only game.
I mean i donno, i could probably balance a game well.
how hard can it be.
whats division
you say that but you wont
and even then if the meta suddenly change, because some found the best playstyle, tons will mimick that
i will i need to find somewhere i can send screenshots
if you honestly could that you would work as a game dev in some large company earning massive amount of money
i mean working for the game industry is fucking trash though
lel
like, seriously.
only if you are the one who can be replaced
Division is a staple of Ubisoft and Massive.
make ur own game then if you have the epic abilities of balance
same as any other competitive buisness
thats what im tryna do in college lel
can you say heli admin from bf4
Working is trash
if you are good enough at something, you get to be a sought after as worker
MTAR is good but not great.
if you suddenly get fired
vault weapon 🤢
you can easily find another place to work
i mean yeah but not having money sucks shit
Sounds like you haven't worked much. Set the bar low going in so you always exceed expectations but not to the point of being taken advantage of
I have my doubts.
I don't wanna set the bar low.
I don't wanna waste my damn time.
so dont
https://imgur.com/snNIyQ5 say i wont
Enjoy doing everyone else's work too then
first step: get off discord 
ok
take a look at the most important personal in most devs team, they either tend to stay for a good while, or change to other dev teams
they dont have around without job
nothing wrong with being fired after a job is done, either through contract ending or just you getting replaced
but if you are good enough, you properly wont be replaced at all
bro ea charged my card a dollar and then said it cant verify
scammerz
IT DID IT AGAIN
BRO?
If it can't verify then they're not taking your money lol
i wAnT my 2 DOLLARTH!! 🤓
poor one
what did you say
ik its gonna refund
@solar obsidian i mean i've had a family member who worked with a company for years only to get laid off. he can't get a job anywhere else at this point, because according to every job he's applied for, he's "overqualified".
im not this slow lol im just toying cause its rejecting
if he is overqualified most of the places he is aiming too low for his search for work,
if he cant find one with his qualifications, he can take a cut and work at a lesser role
i mean he's looking for places that are closer to where we live. also he's doing the latter but he's still getting the "overqualified" schtick.
shame
it's ridiculous.
quite crazy
perhaps he could work for somewhere virtually?
or is the skillset different
Is the UI Resolution bug on resolutions above 1920x1080 ever going to be looked at?
bug ?
wow
I know that 75% of players still use 1080 and will not likely go above but come on
explain
spicry
The UI at 2560x1440 or above is just blurry
hmm
i not noticed that on my 4k screen, have you tried tooling around with windows scaling tool ?
can you screenshot your main menu real quick for me
DM me with it when you can
its not happening today 😄
I'm patient
I've checked this on three independent PCs
With various monitors, and it's still happening
Maybe the issue is with 1440, but 4k and 1080 work fine?
Although if they do have 4k icons it would be better to downscale them to 1440 and not make blurry 1080 icons on 1440
bro this is not okay
doesn't need to be looked at, it's your high DPI scaling, not the game, override it
EA just signed me into my paypal i did not enter jack shit but the email and restarted the process
I do not have high DPI scaling on
im tweakin tweakin yo
yes, switch it on lol
This monitor is not high-dpi, though?
i like how when im buying points "great game garuntee: Not Eligible"
lmfao
kinda wack of EA to put that onto 2042 products the game is good
- flex 5k bfc
good chunk of labor
ok fine i hate you too
schizo ahh

You mean
lmfao
it's literally a microtransaction, they can't put that by law lol
skill issue
so yeah kinda
i had to use the same card it was declining EXCEPT on the paypal portal
like ok..
def skill issue
was in front of my face
its only got 10dpi more than my 1080 monitor? I use windows with 100% scale on everything and everything except 2042 looks good
the problem is 1080p
27" * 2560x1440 = 108dpi, 24" * 1920x1080 = 96dpi?
game shit pants when I get into intensive areas on the map
but how much for that crack cause where the fuck u coming up with this math
how do you think DPI is calculated?
isn't how you calculate it, it's a process called pixel per inch
PPI not DPI
yeah sorry, not DPI, i used the name because you said "high dpi" and dots and pixels can be used interchangeably with lcd monitors, its not a printer
the setting is called high DPI, the calculation is not
okay, where do I turn it on then, let's test it
yall making me think bruh
say shit i understand
i wanna watch u talk

moves to dm
wait should i do that just because i did it in rust too
like does that actually make a difference in anything
hey looks thats what i was sending him 10 min ago
if you don't have scaling issues don't do it
nope
im gucci
damn i bought the credits now im just sitting here
did it to flex
I did that, that's what I thought. It did not do anything.
real big kid shit
My monitor is not high dpi.
my guy anything above 1080p is considered high PPI
PPI is the density of the pixels not the resolution.
If you spread 2 pixels over 2 inches you've got 1 PPI, if you spread the same 2 pixels over 1 inch you get 2 PPI. Pixels stay the same, PPI changes.
so 1080 is bound to be ass for me
dude PPI is the calculation, DPI is the calculation the OS performs when subdividing a render
it has nothing to do with what you're thinking
PPI is literally the amount of pixels per inch on your monitor
you cant remove pixels
you can change the resolution
but the pixels will always be there
Okay, If an application is scaled incorrectly, will it render 3D correctly despite rendering raster images and text wrong?
it means you are trying to run a game not in native resolution probably without your gpu scaling settings set up but this is just IMO
it's the HUD area and associated render text only, it's not the only game that this happens with
just a thought
or software, infact far from it
I am running the game in 2560x1440, my monitor's native resolution.
im gonna guess you recently re installed correct?
i had fucky issues after re install non stop
and actually make sure you reboot the game when switching on scaling
you have to delete the config file from the documents bf2042 folder, repair the files and it fixed any issues i had but also reset every setting and keybind
It happens in, nor has ever happened in, any other game or software except SWBF2 and BF1. I did not play BFV, but it seems like someone thinks >1080 players are margin enough that it's not worth making proper GUI over that res.
yeah, for you
it's called occurrence probability my guy
On three separate desktops with three different 1440p monitors.
ok?
okay okay now im smelling fish
Deco, what resolution do you play on?
the same as you lol
480x480\
Okay, is the main menu sharp for you?
yes
yes
Okay, can you show a screenshot of your main menu to me?
i will too
My DMs are open.
okay
opening sec
I'm not on my pc right now
i got him dw
@vague nexus
you gotten the almost exact same answer from two people in here,
old one I've just found
dont mind the shadows on the character im using a performance cfg
you have the exact same issue as I do. It is the game's fault. 100%.
you have a problem, we trying to help, dont argue that you dont have a high dpi monitor
this is my game 1440p
Just look at the text sharpness on this screenshot.
It is not, it looks exactly the same as mine
bro dont tell me ur talking about the SLIGHT fuzz around text
how fucking OCD are you
their target sc resolution is 1080p..
EA is targeting 1080
mainstream is 1080 thats why its designed that way
yes
because 90% of gamers have 1080
then how any other game can properly handle high resolutions?
that's the argument I started with
thats also a lie though
*anno does so any other game must"
gta v doesnt support 1440p ui
it doesnt, that's why high DPI scaling exists
its small in 3 but it does work well
it does?
if it changes size it dont support it
lol
it doesn't look as blurry as 2042
no he's correct my guy it doesn't support 1440p for the rendered UI on GTA v
did is popcorn worthy
lmao zexten
bros tried to call me out saying im new 😦 mfk im back after the failed launch
battlepass worth it or just buy shop shi?
ffs, these icons are rasterized vectors, same with the font. All EA would have to do to "fix" this is to render them at a higher DPI (yes I used that correctly) and then downscale it for 1080p. Not so hard to do.
but if that tiny amount of blurring of text are annoying,
try take a look at how your response times are on the monitor, and how blurry stuff looks in motion
but who says theyre using adobe illustrate to create their UI 
UI in BF3 is literally not designed for resolutions above 720p.
Well I mean the shop is meant to have the better cosmetics, but if you see something you like in the Battlepass go ahead
bros talking vectors
I really doubt you have a clue how the subdivision actually works
sorry for the rudeness
im getting flashback to dragon age 1
no I really don't. maybe I can't express myself correctly but I do believe I might have some idea in how lcd monitors work
thats related to refresh rate, hes talking about the sharpness of the image
considering that's the stuff i major in
that would be based on the topic of "why do the pictures on my game look like im watching a scratched up CD in 2010"
sorry my guy you don't, your description of that is infact entirely wrong for how HUD overlays work (there is no rendered icon, it's a vector)
its related to both framerate, refresh rate, and how all lcd monitors have this persistent blur,
and then we have the difference in quality of the response time of our monitors that can make or break a picture in motion
but it looks like it's not
well shucks i learned something new, i called him out for saying vectors my fault @vague nexus for that matter
you know what happens with static images when in motion?
they fuck up and don't work
but some things are done properly!
for example the splash screen
before the game loads? that looks correct. and it's a 2d image! how did they do that, huh?
and i get that, i know what you mean im just saying for his specific matter hes upset about the text in the menus, if you cant match refresh rate in the menus bruh shouldnt even be trying to play the game
of course it can be, it's a 2d texture, of course it can be pre-rendered
please stop making things up
ive got 165 hz, i started on shit pc ik how it works brodie no need to explain 💯
it probably is but I have no idea why it would be as that is neither saving memory nor runtime resources
refresh rate is not the issue he is having,
im just trying to explain he is having such a non issue, compared to how his game looks the moment he moves the aim
you're just saying words when you clearly don't have a clue how the frostbite engine actually works for rendering
mrrrrr i knowwww
sure, I don't know.
we are talking of the same thing now
zexten long story short were on the same page now sorry lmfao
good then don't make inaccurate claims which aren't true
ffs, that was sarcasm, I am majoring in graphics. I. know. how. monitors. and. 3d. rendering. works.
if the game was not a competitive multiplayer game i would had played it with 60hz and bfi turned on,
i-
bro 60hz is so unplayable to me
i look at a 60hz phone and literally get nauseous
I don't think 60 is bad as long as it's stable.
are you sure? because what you should know is prerendered images when put into something that has geometrical space (e.g. a game) becomes a blurry mess, because it's 2D
you can't scale 3D and 2D dude
we use limit cap to 59.98 or what is JUST under our refresh rate at 60hz to reach lower inputlag
and that is exactly why you use vector-based fonts and icons
for gui
if it did it wouldn't be blurry
no dude, it's not what you're thinking
Hey Deco say a cap my frames to 60, will I get the same response from my mouse and keyboard as if it's running on 165 Hz?
or perhaps someone messed up the part of the game that's responsible for rendering those 2d vector images and fonts
point is that 60fps looks better when matched with a 60hz refresh rate, compared to a 120+ refresh rate running 60fps
even if i pull 70 or 80fps im still personally running 165hz otherwise i whif any form of mouse interaction cause the mouse slows as well i just learned to love no Vsync, Freesync, and sometimes dipping way below refresh rate but that just me yesssir
for your keyboard and mouse yes, the polling rate doesn't change, what changes is the interrupt rate
in that it's slower
the end response will be processed slower, but there's no slowdown from the input
mainly because of playing the game rust, mouse movement in menus with freesync 80-90hz was a pain
i have an idea
if we all just hopped into a game
we would all be content
Edit for the dummies:
in a state of peaceful happiness.
"he seemed more content, less bitter"
let's establish one thing. we can take a vector "image" of a line, which has got a set width, let's say this line is diagonal. if we render it on a 200x200 raster and then upscale that raster to 400x400 it's gonna be a bit blurry, depending on the kind of scaling algorithm we use, right?
but we can also render that vector line on a 400x400 raster, which makes it as sharp as it can be.
what i'm saying is bf2042's fonts and images are rendered on the same raster on high res as they are on low res. And I think the issue is deep within the engine (which makes sense) and is the reason why the same issue can be noticed in swbf2 and bf1
@vague nexuswhats your monitor ?
but iann dior
EOD bot
what you'll find dude is rendering at 1080p is the standard across games
yes, I said that in the beginning
it's then upscaled accordingly, 1080p isn't low DPI, it scales linearly with 1440p and 4k
frostbite was developed with this in mind, of course
ive learned from observation that u guys are conflicting for no reason, he understands it and so do you 😦 theres nothing we can do about the UI other than leave a note in #948574259209437264 pls 😦
there's no conflict
my anxiety says otherwise i feel the tension lmfao
downscaling creates alias and upscaling creates blur
that's just you my guy
u right
we're having a normal conversation
i should see a psychiatrist huh
which is why the raster for rendering 2d vector images for ui should take the resolution into account and not scale the rasterized textures afterwards
schizo prolly
@vague nexuswhats your monitor? 😄
@vague nexus yaknow.... dice is hiring
be the change u wanna seeee!!!!!!!!! oh yeah! but dont forget about me
gime alllll da battlebield bredits
the scaling is done by the OS, not by the game
i believe the rasterization system within frostbite was designed around 1080p perhaps with downscaling for smaller resolutions too. then 1080p+ was solved as an afterthought
wouldn't rasterization be handled by the graphics library or the gpu directly, though?
rather than the OS
yeah dx12 is windows to some degree but it's wrong to call it an os still, its a graphics library still
the scaling call is done by the OS, DX calls the OS
but the engine probably still controls the raster resolution for rendering vector images
regardles of what actually does the rasterization
it doesn't
guys i’m aboard the choo choo poo poo train y’all proud?
hence why an example game, anno 1800, can do it differently using the same libraries, it has sharp text, even on 9k
if it did it would be a mess
accounting for 400 different combinations with granularity is extraordinarily difficult, and would be impossible to do by a game development studio handling their own rasterisation
according to MSDN you do rasterization yourself through directX
🇭
🇸
How do I get my old controls back?
as in you specify the parameters for it, etc
yes - the rasterisation of textures, UI elements are not textures
herpewees
they are separate
hercules*
No I mean how do I get the control scheme from before the update?
idk i just got back from 2022
aren't UI elements vectors that get rasterized somewhere along the line (because they have to in order to be displayed on the screen)
i HAD to delete config and repair files
but separately from 3D
til i did that everything was just not possible
yes, they're not part of the texture asset class
Is everybody sleeping on the aks 74u or its me that im good?
if they were 1: the game would perform like shit
and pixel-based UI elements probably aren't rasterized at all
as in they're just painted on
in a low-level sense
yeah, it's an overlay
yeah ofc, that's why the images stay sharp
so it's just a problem with rendering/rasterization of 2d vector images and fonts (which are also 2d vectors)
and its obviously not an issue within dx itself since other games do it fine
so probably an engine issue
I get what you're trying to say but your wording is throwing me off
which means it either gets fixed in the next frostbite, or never will
english isn't my first language, that's probably why
no problem
but if someone takes this to a frostbite dev
maybe, just maybe they'll at least confirm it or deny, if it's even worth their time and there's a huge chance nobody will pay for it since, as you said, 90%+ of players are either on 1080, or sit far away enough from their 4k TV hooked to their console not to notice this
and then would require an engine update to a released game...
yeah not happening
I don't know what they did to the controls but it's giving me suicidal identations
well you got the second part of the equation with consoles
i mean you haven't noticed and you use a 1440p monitor
so it's just me and my OCD then
i havent noticed either, and im here on 4k
well, good enough reason as any to not sit in the main menu and play the game instead
a scale slider for the HUD would be cool tho
and not only for this reason
Does anyone have a screenshot of the control screen from before the update?
there's a more call it sinister reason you shouldnt stay in the main menu than that oddly
really
I have no idea why in God's name they had to modify that but Jesus Christ
yes, that background you see isn't a 2D render, it's actually rendering a map in the background
of course it is
the full 3D geometry and textures on the actual game map
it's more flashy this way
tldr it eats your card's power
i was wondering if it loads a full map or just a frustrum culled part since the camera's static
yeah i can hear that
oh ffs why wouldn't they cut out the part that's seen
that's just a waste of loading time
your guess is as good as mine
that's even more frustrating than blurry rasterization
you can enter console and enter camera freecam mode and explore it, just a waste of resources
my hobby in the future is gonna be joining companies, fixing bugs which are irritating for me but too small to be reasonable to fix when someone has to pay for it, and immediately leaving
i mean
maybe i could just
learn hacking, and just make a cheat that fixes this
and other stuff
it's how sometimes game cracks also patch certain bugs
becuase the crackers were too fed up waiting for devs to fix stuff
er it's rare unless the source code has been compromised
black box reversing is its own landmine
if they don't roll back the fix then it's a price to be paid
sigh, i wish we went back to times of building software because we wanted useful stuff and not to fit into quarterly profit
anyway
my issue is fixed through finding out it's probably too deep and too minor to fix
yeah, i'm missing times i wasn't even around to remember
it called being a kid
i'm 22 :/
even hobby software is corporate more or less from the getgo
time is money after all
fire team bundle, yae or nae? will i just be a glowstick..
i mean back in times when we did not care about issues in games¨'
we did not have a baseline for what was good or bad
yeah, and we have courses about it at uni
we just played what was fun and what we had
what you'll find that course doesn't teach you is that someone's time isn't free, and there's a cost for everything in development
golden age for me was from minecraft, skyrim, through bf3 and dying light 1, those were good games
i feel old
software engineers aren't millionaires, most of them aren't anyways, and their time is a resource
yeah but people even 10 years ago could still get paid from making stuff they enjoy instead of stuff being calculated for maximum profit
it was the very rare occasion my guy
it's not the engineer's fault but the manager's
people back then didn't make a living on what they built
only a select few, the ones who got popular did
and it's partly responsible for the landmine mess we have today because of scrappy foundations
was it worse than what we have now? what with all the microtransactions and battlepasses stuffed everywhere? and making games barely good enough for release and fixing them for 2 years after?
far worse yes
code was indecipherable, non documented, using what a developer wanted and nobody cared about standardisation or took the time to care
10 years ago was the time ea and other publishers tried to pull off online passes and bonus content behind a single use code in brand new games,
it was ideally a 10 euro fee for all used games
as much shit as I give corporations, compared to back then it's a night and day difference
if we had those times now, the game wouldn't work on half of configurations period
and nobody would care about it either
95% of the software developed now isn't even seen by the average person
i've got an exam coming up (on wednesday) about "process management in software engineering"
i've read a 1500+ page on standards and documentation
this gives me ptsd right now
a lot of that only came into existence in the last 20~ years
and is impossible to put in for already built stuff
Roller coaster tycoon on god damn assembly code.
some of the 3d games on pc in the 90s
hardware hell
And then that was translated into a different format for other devices.
This is still one of the most bonkers coding facts I know
actually was just assembly
but the good times, the skyrims and the battlefield threes, what do we have now that's better and not a money-making scheme packed with fees
except indies
you don't need cross translation from assembly
red tinted glasses my guy
they were all messes too
tfw m16 out ranges your lcmg 
battlefield 3 had terrible design making decisions that today look like a stone age coffin, and that's before the part where it didn't work for over a year on release
oh yeah, that
Skyrim ha(s) numerous bugs that make the game unplayable in certain sections
skyrim on ps3 HAVE the played time performance degradation bug that would turn your save game unplayable after a good while
never fixed
"hey guys, i cracked EAC! I made an undetectable cheat that can't get you banned!"
"cool , what's it do? aimbot? esp?"
"makes text in main manu sharper!"
isn't it overriding some raster's dimensions
so like one well placed detour or even a memory substitution
no, to do that you need to inject into the pipeline before the game instantiates
well i actually have no clue what it is i'm only guessing
the hacks you're describing are in place memory changes
so i'd need to inject into dx instead of the game and possibly fuck up everything else that uses dx
when i saw you say "webhook" i was like "what, they're pulling these icons from a webserver?"
lol 3am autocorrect
or maybe they're already rasterised and packaged with the game
it would be as unreasonable as it can be
but it would mean you just have to swap them out
i just uncovered my pc ventilation top hole it had a rag on it
im like why my shit so hot
yes rasterised textures are not the source ones that are used by DICE
it would be impossible to do that
of course, but i thought the game keeps at least the vector source of the fonts
and not rasterized letter textures that get stitched
they do not, mostly cause it's expensive aswell
wouldn't vector be less expensive than raster images storage wise?
i mean depends on the amount of control points and what not
but i'd imagine a font would be easier to store as a vector, omitting the fact that it's a standard to store fonts this way
they're more expensive, it takes more memory to hold those source assets all the time, AOT means that you only need it on demand
so they render these texts once
what if they need for example a chat message
in the ingame chat
the chat box does use prerendered fonts, but that's because it's a tiny area of the game
Guys i bought the ultimate edition of 2042 a while ago but i still haven't received all of season 1 rewards they only gave me the angle skin from season 1
i'm not really sure how code compilation is related to textures
they only go up so much
it's all about swap
yeah i probably know what you're talking about
but i'll refer again to the fact of the current time
so
i think i'm dozing off now
it's unsual to be able to disagree with someone and still come out with a common mind
especially on the internet
you don't get all the rewards, only the ones you completed
ehh more common than you'd probably think
halfway through this conversation i was expecting on getting a slap on the face from the mods for arguing
there's language translation going on here too
Oh alright ty for resolving my question
np
Gn
yeah even though im typing english words probably have different meanings for you or terms or stuff
especially because this is all technical
gotta love joining right at the end of the game
nah I get what you're trying to say so just blank out something if it's incorrect
lmao
i want that
How do you type to the game chat on Xbox?
also cracking eac isnt something that hard to do
yeah i felt like sometimes you wouldn't be able to get what i was trying to convey
no no the other part is worse
which part
the part where you make the text sharper
is pc only
OH no whatever shall we do
the menu text is sharper
Are you sure? I've been able to type on ps5@remote kiln
I’m actually really liking these new camera movements during certain movement
we are all doomed
because you have to hijack a rasterizer, make sure it does its job under new params and then let go of it before anything else breaks
Seems to be a little delay for transition between walking to running and running to tac sprint
Which is also nice
and do all that with nothing but straight memory and assembly code
oh i thought you were gonna say its bad for the game
dx is closed source too, right?
yeah unlike vulkan
New breakaway is ehhhhh for defenders. But maybe it’s just a bad team
actually nvm I was wrong, start - RTL and A is how you get to get to the chat box
yeah this is gonna be my new pet project
its pretty op for defenders
Ah ok thanks @remote kiln
np
sounds cool
in rust
try not to get banboozled tho
for sharpening fonts?
i'm gonna hit up the guys who made the unofficial bf3 multiplayer thing
although
yeah
im gonna hit the mf bed first
goodnight to y'all
cya
I don’t remember who recommended I use the SVK but bless your soul. That thing with the mid range thermal is just pure cheese
What’s up guys I’m new here
i want to unlocked all the thermal scope, but im to busy abusing the m93 EMR to tier 1 it please don't fix it just yet :((
So glad they fixed the revive aim at sky bug
why is rebinding keys such a pain
cause the controls section was built with controller in mind for consoles
just doesnt register half my clicks half the time 😴
lol remeber the china spy ballon, its actually was a spy ballon and better yet had explosives lol
Nice
based and nukepilled
probably not the best idea to discuss that here with unconfirmed details
the balloon hasnt been recovered, it's simply a could be
i mean china already responded lol
they said it was for civilian use, the US military or government haven't said anything about what it houses
because they don't know themselves until they get it
if it was for civilian use then there are formal ways of getting permision to fly over us air space
it isn't US airspace
you cant just enter another country's airspace without permission
anything above 45kft isn't part of a country's airspace
something something emp trial run 
doj confirms it was in US airspace
it was flying over US territory, it was not US airspace
even if it isnt u dont just enter another country like that
also it was flying over senstive military instalation
feel free to read it
also if the rumors if it containing explosives to prevent capture is true, what kind of BS civilan ballon needs explosives
??? the doj confirmed it?
they did not confirm it, there is specific wording for American airspace
the US has final say in it regardless and they said its intruding on us airspace
they are talking about over its territory
radar signals detected it because it entered the geographical boundaries for airspace, that doesn't change that above 45k ft is not part of it
remember, there's 3 dimensions
6 miles is less than 45k
even if it isnt in us airspace it still a huge red flag for the US goverment and really any goverment
it was 60k ft in the air
sure
look
I’m just upset we can’t talk about the Chinese in an American chat. They won already I guess.
if china has a steath bomber that can fly at 50k feet do u think the us isnt gonna respond just because it isnt "technically" in their airspace
? I agreed with you
Watch me do the pyrocynical chinese meme and get kicked
I said sure because it's a valid point
point is why did china even attempted this stupid thing, feels like their doing this just so they have a reason to retaliate
no idea, we're not the Chinese government, one thing it definitely isn't for is spying
weve been trying to reach you
Zai xianggang
we've got no idea what it's for till it's recovered
they wouldntve reacted so badly to the US shooting it down if it wasnt for something else thats nefarious
i mean it could very well be but why lol, there are satellites in orbit that can do the same thing even better
the mist is the zombie virus
yeah, precisely
ikr
a balloon doesn't make sense
i am so sick of people completely ignoring soflam darts when they play as an engineer
they told them it was a bad thing, not exactly the biggest of reactions lol
meanwhile im over here wondering where all the vehicle spots are when playing engineer 
too many people running McKay
Idk about you guys but the balloon was obviously from a child that lost it, John cena told me
they literally went full wolf warrior
yo someone say bing chilling? 
how
Bing chilling
geopolitics is complicated even the most minor of things can escelate to serious matters
way gunna ruin it
Welcome way
which is why this entire thing has a 90% chance of being a nothing burger
BING CHILLING
nvm way is cool
even US analysts who looked at the balloon before it was shot down said it was probably for civilian beaming
Loves bing chilling *
whats with the targeting on the javelin being so fucking dog shit when another vehicle is within your box?
If I were china id advise the u.s on what is happening.
A balloon is headed your direction yadda yadda.
Anything can be resolved with bing chilling
these types of things are more common than people realise, jumping immediately to they're spying doesn't solve anything
like im following an enemy vehicle with my crosshair...actually in the center of my targeting box, and the game is like "DID YOU MEAN TO TARGET THIS EMPTY TRANSPORT TRUCK??" and resets the fucking lock 
look if it is truly for civilian use, just ask for permision lol, like every other person do
not that type of civilian use
It does look bad when you don't say anything.
(spoiler, its not)
civilian use as in, civil purposes
Is the javelin only in portal or?
No.
it was just added to AOW with 3.2
i saw a tank or two get soflamed by my teammates during a renewal match
having an engineer + recon is the best
Dawg how do I obtain that metal pipe with heat seeking dynamite
dont think i saw a single fucking heli the entire game get painted.... you gotta love it
3 lis and a medic
not sure if this is confirmed but i heard china said it was a "civilian airship" whatever that means
wtf is a civilian airship
thats so unbalanced 😔
like are there ppl in the baloon
ah
weather forecasting/internet etc
its actually funny how bonkers broken lis rocket launcher is when using it as a squad of them
So is this where we get on to get a squad together?
they regen ammo
because aparently the chinese ballon was over 200ft tall which is fkn huge
you dont need support
Why would a civilian airship from China be flying above US territory??
it's 60k ft high, it has to be long to sustain that height
kirov reporting
ive seen videos of people doing lis squads and having like one medic for revs
Wat dat yo
its insanely funny
pressure increases the higher altitude you are in the air
its the size of a jetliner lol
yep, even two lis are enough to cancel any tank in progressing forward
the actual survelance stuff not the ballon
seem familiar?
they are all massive when you are that high in the stratosphere
it's not some small balloon
yea that makes it more sus lol
how?
Why does it look like a stretched out bao bun
it has that much solar panels and for what if not being used for something like survelance
if they legit think spy balloons is the way of the future for spying on ur neigbors i just cant lol
nasa uses these kinds of ballons for gathering data
yeah
its not much of a strech to slap a huge ass camera and live feed it for intel gathering
yes it is?
because what substantiate evidence exists? the fact it's Chinese?
im looking at the center and i see a huge ass camera
thats a satellite..
bruh
thats literally the satelite that was shot down
if you dont belive me look at the live video it looks exactly the same
also thats not the moon
Did lmg recoil get raised?
do you know how big a lense has to be to record from that height?
remeber this ballon is the size of a jetliner
the balloon is 200 ft in diameter
.. the balloon.. is not the same as that..
you can clearly see from this image that the non ballon part of this spy ballon is nearly as long as the diameter of the balloon
its frkn massive
some satalites we put on orbit isnt even this big because u know it needs to fit in a rocket
here's an idea my guy, don't make some wild claim because it's chinese
im not
here is the reddit where i got this picture
idk about that lol you had the audacity to claim that NASA use it for data collection, and this one is apparently different because.. something something
there's no coherent reasoning here, you have no idea just like anyone else
Isn't spying just data collection on somebody else though
NASA uses it for collection, and im crazy for thinking the chinese one is also use it for data collection? wow
its almost like both of them does the same thing
yeah you are, because you have no idea

u agree that nasa uses balloons with hardware on them to collect data? why is it so hard for u to think the chinese one isnt doing the same thing
what do NASA use that data for?
Talks about the spy balloon in a 2042 channel, seems legit
data is data, u can use it for scientific purposes or military it depends on how u use it
a guy taking picture of a russion convoy is just a picture to a civilian but to the military , if that picture has a geo tag on it then they can literaly call in a strike
what?
Yawn
my point is data is just data, it depends on how u use it
no your point is you're not going to answer because "how you use it" depends on the country
I think that would be OSINT
yea open source inteligence
Some dudes are crazy, fucking find the exact street a random meme video was filmed on
Did lmg recoil get changed yet
you're insane for making such wild claims
Cool stuff tbh
its literaly happening rn lol
?
No?
It will be in the ‘near future’
look if nasa sends their ballons over shaghai u think it isnt sus for the chinese goverment?
even if nasa claims its for atmospheric data
it doesnt matter
how would I be able to answer that?
what NASA use data for is public information dude
going into the land of conspiracy theories isn't helping anything
information is information why do u think google maps blurs military bases, because it can be used againts them
So I've come to realize the M305A23 whatever default AR is the best
no.. because the department of defense forces Google too
Portal guns suck
why? tho because its a security risk its literaly in their name the DOD department of defence they are responsible for US security
yes?
Strangely Okinawa AFB just casually shows a bunch of F35s lol
giving so easy access to clear hd images of military bases is dumb for security
uh huh?
you good bud?
Bitches act like they’re gods gift but all they do is fucking lie
Oh no
It’s so funny, that’s all
some one is having a bad day lol
Nah nah I’m not having a bad day, just done with the bullshit
Prolly gonna go drink myself to sleep or something
well GL with that
I will, I actually just picked up a bottle of whipped cream vodka
Actually fuck that I’m getting hammered and playing 2042
Yes
Update has presented some weird issues with input and choppy animations on ps5
Either that or servers are a tiny bit wonky
Update presents all sorts of issues like all the time ever
True
Fucking interns
I hate the new fall damage changes
I've died so many times cuz of bs fall damage
Like grappling onto the renewal wall and dying after hitting the roof
Not as bad when you shoot an enemy while ads on exposure and suddenly fall off a cliff
Or jumping out the condor, opening the parachute, cutting it 2m away from the ground and dying immediately
Exposure cliff on its way to be 90% fake
What do you mean
Like
There's so many places where you can clearly stand without falling
But you actually can't
Jumping off the cliffs on exposure is fun
dying to the stumble animation is cool and fun and engaging gameplay
Ragdolls have me dead in battlefield
I'm getting stumble animations when walking over ice rocks on breakaway
