battlefield-2042

[arctic grove]

Yeah I'd say the choice part was ok

Bruh imagine if the campaign is like Spec Ops The Line

[jagged otter]

A War Story like campaign would be kinda cool for a modern BF imo

[grim nacelle]

that is bound to change

[jagged otter]

different scenarios all over the world

[grim nacelle]

it’s too plain imo but still good

[jagged otter]

Maybe for a few missions

[primal night]

@grim nacelle MW2 only worked because of the campaigns preceeding and proceeding it.

[jagged otter]

could be expanded too

[arctic grove]

Well hopefully it's either Battlefield or Battlefield 6

Battlefield 2042 is the lamest title

[soft kayak]

This tweet lines up so well with the recent DICE teaser image that its all but confirmed https://twitter.com/_Tom_Henderson_/status/1384437271869497345

[wise edge]

The ui from the supposed leaks are almost indentical to BF4

[primal night]

i highly doubt DICE and EA will bother with 2142 as much as I'd like to see it happen.

[arctic grove]

Too many glitches

[grim nacelle]

well, judging by how this is the biggest battlefield they worked on, surely there is going to be the best campaign in the franchise

all BF campaign’s imo were not fun to me

this one hopefully can make a change

[soft kayak]

2042 is a much better title

[arctic grove]

I'd say best campaign and emotional one is medal of honor reboot and warfighter

[soft kayak]

abandon campaign. Add a bot mode for those who want it and focus on multiplayer

[wise edge]

If they do that the price has to come down

[arctic grove]

I did

When it was alive

[soft kayak]

no it doesnt. Not if the lack of single player is supplemented by more multiplayer content

[wise edge]

Tried to i waited 7mins and abandoned lmao

[soft kayak]

they may not due to advertising, but they really should

[wise edge]

The campaign is big chunk of the game, if it's missing there's a lot less money spent on the game in general

[white geyser]

The only bot they can add is co-op survival mode and I want it for Battlefield games and the upcoming BF6 since they only one time they add co-op survival in bad company 2, except it sucks and it’s not connected to the multiplayer to help you level up.

[soft kayak]

because the multiplayer is the vastly more played portion of the game, and the linear level design of the campaign meshes horribly with a game based on large scale battles.

[wise edge]

So it has to have smaller price or we are just using us as a money milking machines

[soft kayak]

not really. Most people dont even touch it.

[wise edge]

People playing =/= money spent developing it

[radiant prism]

Campaign serves as world building for the MP.

Therefore it’s probably needed for anything going on to make sense

[soft kayak]

1. the price of a game never coorelates to its budget
2. the money spent on campaigns would go into multiplayer maps

[grim nacelle]

they need to make a good campaign first tho

[scarlet hornet]

I still need to play the singleplayer of BF1 and BF5 😳

[grim nacelle]

not many ppl touch it as it is not that fun

[arctic grove]

OMG, the hype is real!

[soft kayak]

exactly. Multiplayer maps have far more replay value. Theyre a better use of resources

[wise edge]

Have you ever seen recent AAA games that costs less than 60$?

[arctic grove]

I think V is actually a good game.

[wise edge]

Or indie games more than 20?

There a reason for that

[soft kayak]

yes plenty of indie games are above 20. But AAA games have a vastly varying budgets. If it correlated to budget, it would not always be 60

[arctic grove]

Games today have editions

[soft kayak]

something that is played multiple times is 100% a better use of resources than something played once

[fossil trench]

Ubisoft is the worst offender of this

[soft kayak]

and they also dont coorelate to the budget of the game.

[wise edge]

Yea but they generally are very bigger compared to the rest, the games have an entire campaign and multiplayer in them and still manage to be profitable

[arctic grove]

Yeah lol

[scarlet hornet]

I hope the MP will be really good, just played BF4 again and I missed those times!

[wise edge]

I don't need to give more money to EA's share holders

[arctic grove]

I brought rb6 siege advance edition at GameStop

[wise edge]

I wish to keep it for myself

[worn whale]

OMG THIS SECRET MESSAGE

Play it twice

[wise edge]

No thanks

[soft kayak]

For example: If the price of games coorelated to the dev cost, then Cyberpunk would be 2x the price of MGSV. Its not

[wise edge]

Those games still are profitable

[coral aurora]

Why can't I see EE chat anymore

[soft kayak]

yeah? Not really relevant to my point

[wise edge]

If anything it's shows that AAA game need to lower there price

It's relevant to my point

[soft kayak]

what is your point then?

[fossil trench]

I refunded it

[wise edge]

60$ for a multiplayer only game is too much when a good chunk of the cost of development is gone

[fossil trench]

Haven’t played since November

Broken ass game

Inexcusable

[soft kayak]

I never said that dev cost would go away. I want them to put the resources that would go into campaign to the multiplayer. making the multiplayer bigger

[arctic grove]

Whats mgsv

[soft kayak]

metal gear solid 5

[trim pelican]

Youtubers need content my man

[wise edge]

They don't need an infinite amount of money

[jagged otter]

BF4 sost 100 million

[soft kayak]

??

[arctic grove]

Cyberpunk only failed on last gen console

[jagged otter]

To make up for that

[fossil trench]

No campaign is fine. Just make a good fucking game. That’s all I want.

[wise edge]

Especially with microtransaction

[jagged otter]

You need to sell at least 1,666,666 copies, each costing 60 bucks

[slim quiver]

this

[soft kayak]

doesnt relate to my point at all

[trim pelican]

"This is battlefields campaign..." YouTube videos lol

[arctic grove]

You on pc lol

Games in 2020 where made for next gen

[wise edge]

I'm explaining why i don't agree with you

[arctic grove]

Like fc6

Or new horizon

[soft kayak]

ok but your reasoning does not connect to my point at all.

[wise edge]

That more money=better multiplayer

[soft kayak]

more money would equal bigger multiplayer. Quality would probably be the same

[arctic grove]

I'm buying ps5 for it

[wise edge]

I don't think you understand the cost of the development of games

[obsidian ginkgo]

Better performance on série x tho

[arctic grove]

Yeah

Idk what I'll buy

[scarlet hornet]

What do you guys think... Will the new Battlefield game directly on Steam, or only on Origin for a certain time?

[arctic grove]

Im in it for exclusive

[soft kayak]

if you took the people making campaign content, and had them make multiplayer maps, its not like they would be twiddling their thumbs all day. Theyd make a damn multiplayer map

[obsidian ginkgo]

EA play and Xbox game pass

[arctic grove]

That's 1 up

To sony

[wise edge]

I don't know to put it in a way you would understand, what you described would still take less resources than making a single player campaign

[arctic grove]

Ps now don't got that yet

[wise edge]

This

[upbeat ice]

[arctic grove]

I think bf6 beta might be on ea play

Like bf5

Beta

[obsidian ginkgo]

I enjoyed BF3 and BF4 campaign and I played them for the first time 2 weeks ago

I liked how doing only headshot reward you through the chapter.

And I like the cover to cover tactical gameplay of bf3

[soft kayak]

I dont think you understand what Im saying. Take the resources from campaign, and put them to work on multiplayer. The result would be that the size of the multiplayer increases by the amount of content that manpower could create

[arctic grove]

Besides dice been working with next gen since year ago idk if it be on last gen

[signal gyro]

Battlefielf without SP is like COD without MP

[obsidian ginkgo]

Campaign can create lore like the campaign of mw2019 did for warzone thoughts season 2 to season 5

[signal gyro]

If BF doesn't have a campaign, the MP would be sour. Like BF2142

[wise edge]

You don't understand that doing that takes less resources than making a campaign

[soft kayak]

theyre not incompetent. Its not like they would design a single player map and slap multiplayer on it

[next isle]

!when

[arctic grove]

Didn't bf5 kinda did that with pacific and elites

[obsidian ginkgo]

And I think bf6 will have an heavy side toward special force group. So the battleroyal can make sense and the lore can evolve and be viral on social media

[soft kayak]

"transferring resources takes less resources than the resources you transfer"
lol

[wise edge]

It doesn't work like that dude

[signal gyro]

@next isle pog

[wise edge]

You have no idea of what you are talking about dude

[soft kayak]

nah its like Cod without singleplayer. as in nothing of value is lost

[soft kayak]

that is literally what you said

[arctic grove]

Minus SF bf5 started the lore part in war

[signal gyro]

COD SP is best man

Modern Warfare trilogy?

[obsidian ginkgo]

My theory is the main story of battlefield is special force NATO union vs some eco-terrorism eastern eurasie union

[soft kayak]

up to blops 2

[signal gyro]

MW2019 still good. The SP and COOP

[arctic grove]

Eco terrorists lol

[signal gyro]

Instead, the BR and MP ruins the storyline

[obsidian ginkgo]

The natural disaster are provoked through a satellite like the movie geostorm or like the ODIN from. Cod Ghost

[real lintel]

Or it could be a continuation of battlefield 4s war

[soft kayak]

@wise edge nah the wrong reply makes that comment infinitely funnier

[real lintel]

USA vs China

[wise edge]

Ok

[obsidian ginkgo]

Bad company 2 had a bomb that can create tsunami

[soft kayak]

so what I get from this

• if you make a single player map you become incapable of designing a multiplayer one
• campaign is just as valuable as multiplayer even if it has inherently less replay value
• transferring resources takes less resources than the resources you transfer

Fuck maybe Im having a stroke

[arctic grove]

From the tweets dice sent out it seems to be bf6 is nato vs brics special forces but it sounds united states was attacked

USS raven rock

[wise edge]

The man is too sexy

[soft kayak]

yes. That doesnt mean that someone who has made a single player map is incapable of designing a multiplayer one

[upbeat ice]

!when

[upbeat ice]

👀

[soft kayak]

wait a minute, do you think that im suggesting, were they to already be working on a campaign, to turn those campaign maps into multiplayer ones?
Cause if theyre already making a campaign then the cats out of the bag. Too late, may as well finish it. I am saying that they shouldnt have made the campaign in the first place

[wise edge]

Injecting more money won't always have an noticeable improvement

[white geyser]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH! ⏰⏰⏰

[soft kayak]

It probably wouldnt change the quality but it would certainly be larger.
Its an injection of manpower specifically

[wise edge]

What does larger even me?

[soft kayak]

more maps and items

[wise edge]

Microtransactions pay enough for that

[soft kayak]

I should clarify, this is an injection of manpower specifically. Mtx revenue isnt going to increase the team size. Its not going to make more content

it would make it bigger

[wise edge]

An injection of manpower doesn't cost as much as developing a campaign

[soft kayak]

its the same manpower that would have gone into the campaign!

• "transferring resources takes less resources than the resources you transfer"
  I am having a stroke my god!

[wise edge]

There's more to developing a campaign then the manpower alone

The salary of the developers is probably the cheapest thing in the development of a game

[thin rain]

👀

[soft kayak]

writers can write for other things. codex entries, operation monologues, in game dialogue

a lot more talent goes to waste in these crappy campaigns

[wise edge]

Because the Corporate overlords doesn't let them do a good one

[soft kayak]

ive played bf campaigns before and I have no reason to think it will get better

[thin rain]

I usually enjoy the campaigns

They're a nice small thing even tho Multiplayer is why I buy it

[soft kayak]

its getting smaller year by year

[wise edge]

It's sad to see that a few years ago a AAA game without a good campaign was taught to be a scam

[soft kayak]

which was bullshit cause a game doesnt need a campaign to be complete

it means its getting less important

[wise edge]

Execpt when it's same price as one

[soft kayak]

already been over this

Im not going in circles

[wise edge]

Execpt you wont understand

[thin rain]

xd

[jagged otter]

Don't even bother

[soft kayak]

I do understand and I understand why your wrong

[jagged otter]

They couldn't even understand my words

[wise edge]

its been idk how many minutes i am trying to explain to you the same thing

[soft kayak]

who are you talking to

[jagged otter]

Not you.

[wise edge]

It just keeps flying over you head

[soft kayak]

i am trying to explain to you the same thing
because your reasoning is flawed and incoherent

[jagged otter]

[wise edge]

Lmao what?

[jagged otter]

I like good campaigns

[soft kayak]

if you dont want to, leave

[jagged otter]

I want the next BF to have one

even if it's only a couple hours long

[wise edge]

Dude you clearly have no idea of what your talking about

[soft kayak]

then dont bitch about the time

[soft kayak]

is that all youve resorted to. Just crying "you dont understand"

[wise edge]

Because you head is too thick to understand what we are trying to say

[slim quiver]

wait whats goin on

[soft kayak]

-crying about the time yet doesnt leave

[slim quiver]

oh are we talkin about campaign

[wise edge]

The dude wanted no campaign, I said that if it happens the price needs to be lowered

[slim quiver]

BF shouldnt even have a campaign. It can still stay 60 dollars tho because live service

[jagged otter]

Because live servive...

[slim quiver]

as long as every DLC is free

[jagged otter]

[soft kayak]

and Im saying that if more multiplayer content is added then the price shouldnt change

[slim quiver]

you realize BF is going to be a live service right?

[nova nova]

18

[slim quiver]

they talked about it at the earnings call

[wise edge]

That should be a given holy shit

[jagged otter]

What in the fuck is more multiplayer content

[soft kayak]

maps and items
how is that unclear?

[slim quiver]

more multiplayer content is more maps and weapons and factions and vehicles

and customization

[jagged otter]

Right..

[radiant prism]

BF needs a campaign to set the stage for the MP, otherwise there’s no worldbuilding and you have no clue what’s going on

[slim quiver]

so basically everything the game has to offer

we do know whats going on

its right after BF4

[radiant prism]

We actually don’t know that

[soft kayak]

Operations and codexes did far more world building than bf1's campaign

[wise edge]

You know what Gamers deserves to pay 200$ for a game that wasn't even finished

[slim quiver]

thing is, why waste effort on a campaign when its going to be mediocre?

[jagged otter]

I want war stories, maybe a few missions. Different scenarios

[soft kayak]

^^^^^^

[jagged otter]

Different viewpoints of the conflict

[slim quiver]

why would they even bother with the resources

[jagged otter]

And different places

that'd be cool af

[wise edge]

Idk like try to make it good

[slim quiver]

everyone complained about BF1 and BFV campaign and BF4 and BF3 campaigns were pretty mediocre

[jagged otter]

They could even develop those after release

And add them

[soft kayak]

these guys seem to think the single player dev team is completely incapable of making multiplayer stuff and would instead create nothing

[slim quiver]

why would they put the effort into fleshing out a campaign when the drive of BF is just multiplayer

[radiant prism]

Because that game is based in reality, it doesn’t need to do worldbuilding in the campaign. Everyone knows what WW1 is and roughly who fought in it. That’s not the case in a future, hypothetical conflict. Who are the belligerents? What are the stakes? On top of that, why should the player care?

[wise edge]

There's game that cost like 10€ that have stellar single player

[slim quiver]

yeah lmao i dont get that

[soft kayak]

couldnt the ops and codex flesh out the lore of this world?

[jagged otter]

What Remains of Edith Finch

[wise edge]

They are just lazy to make you pay for shit that isn't worth

[soft kayak]

that doesnt mean the devs are incapable of doing either process

[radiant prism]

Not the same as a full blown story could. Codex worked as an extension to already existing knowledge.

[slim quiver]

thing is, Battlefield sadly had their last good campaign in BC2: 11 years ago

[soft kayak]

I disagree. The codex and ops covered much more of the war

[jagged otter]

That's an even better reason to make a comeback

[slim quiver]

not really

[jagged otter]

and develop a good campaign

yeah it fucking is

[slim quiver]

if theyre going to come back and develop a good campaign, just make another bad company 3 then

[jagged otter]

Just because something's kinda going downhill

doesn't mean it's fully lost

[soft kayak]

how many writers vs how many level designers, programmers, and testers are on the singleplayer team?

[wise edge]

Like seriously few years ago games costed like 30-40€ finished and with a good single player and campaign modes

[slim quiver]

BC2's story never ended

people have been waiting for BC3 for 11 years

[jagged otter]

SO? Hire good fucking writers

[slim quiver]

and theres no sign of that returning

[jagged otter]

They have the budget

[soft kayak]

common sense

[radiant prism]

Either way, wouldn’t you rather experience the world rather than just read about it? The concept of show, don’t tell comes into play here. That’s where the crucial difference comes in between a historical and a future setting.

[slim quiver]

they are putting their development into turning BF into a live service

everything will be centered around the multiplayer

[soft kayak]

Wouldnt I experience it through multiplayer?
2142 did a great job at this

[slim quiver]

they literally talked about BF becoming a refined live service literally in the earnings call

[wise edge]

Then don't make us pay for the non existent campaign

[soft kayak]

you arent paying for it

[wise edge]

Yes you are

[jagged otter]

look

[slim quiver]

Titanfall 1 actually kinda did a single player and multiplayer experience

[jagged otter]

shut the fuck up really quick

for one minute

listen

[radiant prism]

BF1 dealt with a preexisting setting everyone already had some degree of familiarity with. That’s not the case with this sort of setting. You’d experience it, sure…but I’d be shocked if it’s just me who experiences a world much better when I understand what’s going on in the context of a MP match.

[soft kayak]

we understand this. What you dont understand is that devs are not one trick ponies.

[jagged otter]

We have different opinions on stuff.
One group likes MP more, one likes story content more.

There's literally no point in arguing.

[slim quiver]

they could pull a titanfall 1

[jagged otter]

You're going in circles.

[soft kayak]

doesnt mean they cant adapt or work with the multiplayer team

[slim quiver]

Tell that to the rockstar devs that formulated RDR2 campaign and also formulated all the quests and every cutscene dialogue for RDR2 Online

[wise edge]

Idk man, i only wish to not pay for shit that isn't there

[soft kayak]

how about 2142 where the whole coarse of the war is shown with only a bot mode?

[radiant prism]

Take Star Wars, for example. It’s a completely fictional setting. Battlefront works because the game is set in the larger context of the Star Wars universe. The player understands the factions and the stakes, otherwise it’s just space bullshit and flashy stuff that doesn’t make a ton of sense.

[jagged otter]

^

[soft kayak]

impossible. When given the task they froze up completely and accidentally made single player content

[thin rain]

Some of you need to calm down lol

[slim quiver]

what context could people possibly not understand about the next battlefield game

[radiant prism]

I’m not saying they couldn’t do it without campaign. I just personally feel that task is best accomplished through the medium of a campaign.

[jagged otter]

Little war stories in different countries, scenarios, from different perspectives and whatnot is all you need. Those episode'esque missions could be continuously added throughout development or even a few weeks after launch.

[radiant prism]

We don’t even know for certain when the game’s set. If it’s set after BF4, what’s happened since then? What’s changed? Why is the world still fighting?

[soft kayak]

A campaign would certainly do this. But in my opinion that is a lot of time to put in just to explain the context of multiplayer, which many players may not even need

[slim quiver]

Im going to be honest, i played the BF1 campaign and BFV campaign, and I was wondering why they didnt just scrap that and spend way more time on everything in terms of content, hell BFV really could have used it

[slim quiver]

the world wasnt done fighting in bf4

all you do in the BF4 campaign at the end is destroy chang's ship

the war still waged on

[wise edge]

It isn't because in the last game they couldn't bother to make a good campaign that it should be the norm

[radiant prism]

Then don’t you think it’d be interesting to explore what’s happened to the world in years of conflict in that scenario?

There’s so much to explore, it’d be a shame to not go in depth with it

And, to that end, I believe a SP campaign is the best way to experience that

[slim quiver]

i think it would be more interesting if they fleshed out the game most people will be absorbed into for the long haul, so i dont see people on reddit complain it lacks content and its like BFV

[soft kayak]

it should be the norm because the campaign is a waste of time. You dont see people complaining when single player games have no multiplayer. Why must the opposite be true?

[thin rain]

Singleplayers make people more attached to games, either because of immersion in the story, the characters or the entire setting the game is set in. There is no denying that as it is statistically proven, also why some games have a greater drawback on player counts than others a few months into release. If you make someone really enjoy the campaign enough to think/talk about it, they are more likely to play the multiplayer longer afterwards.

[slim quiver]

millions of people do this @arctic grove

[soft kayak]

100% a lot of people are

[jagged otter]

I smell stupid takes

[slim quiver]

you know how many people actually do not finish a call of duty campaign lmao

people will play games EASILY for just the multiplayer

[wise edge]

I don't care that you think that single player is a waste for me it isn't, games shouldn't to conform to what YOU like or don't

[soft kayak]

vice versa kid. they shouldnt be pouring tons of effort into what a minority of players actually care about

[radiant prism]

But how many people in comparison do you think DO finish a call of duty campaign?

[thin rain]

If they want to keep high player counts for a longer time a singleplayer is a good way to get people psychologically attached

[radiant prism]

I know I’ve bought several games there just for the campaign.

[wise edge]

Then why are you trying to say that i should pay more for less?

[jagged otter]

There has always been a campaign

[soft kayak]

original bf games just had a bot mode

[soft kayak]

why should I have to pay for a campaign?

[slim quiver]

Counter strike never had a singleplayer until condition zero(sold the worst) but it never stopped that game for being one of the most popular fps games of all time

[jagged otter]

I think you guys should call it a day

[thin rain]

Doesn't matter if you play the campaign yourself or you watch someone else play it, if it immerses you, you are more likely to keep playing than if you just jump into a mindless multiplayer shooter. Those that jump directly into multiplayer are statistically less likely to play the game as long as those who do the singleplayer(or watch it).

[soft kayak]

you are more likely to keep playing than if you just jump into a mindless multiplayer shooter.
any reason to believe this?

[wise edge]

Dude the entire argument started because you wanted to keep paying 60€ while there is no campaign

[slim quiver]

who knows at this point. a lot of people have complained about the quality. MW2019 was good tho so who knows

[radiant prism]

That’s also true, there’s always been a campaign. DICE would catch a good degree of flak for not including one, especially given they’ve had this long and this many studios working on the game.

[thin rain]

Other than it being statistically proven?

[soft kayak]

I wanted to pay 60 for more multiplayer content instead of 60 for some multiplayer and some campaign

[thin rain]

It's psychology one on one dude

[soft kayak]

can I see the statistics?

[slim quiver]

DICE caught flak for having mediocre campaigns lmao

[thin rain]

Sure, pay me for my time though, I will find you a study on psychology in terms of attachment through immersion as well.

Now give me sources for all your arguments

[sacred depot]

Mediocre campaigns are for the most part normal for BF as a series

[wise edge]

Why would you pay so much for a mulitplayer game

[soft kayak]

I didnt make any scientific claims

[slim quiver]

yeah since past BC2

[sacred depot]

The whole interest is in the MP, but the SP isn't plain shit

[radiant prism]

They'd probably catch more for not including one at all, especially considering how long they've had to work on this game.

[soft kayak]

Cause I want a lot of multiplayer

[slim quiver]

BC2 was the last good campaign

[thin rain]

By saying others are wrong and you are right you are making what you say be presented as "fact", for it to be fact it means it is proven.

[wise edge]

Half of the money will to the share holders in that case

[sacred depot]

and how many studios are on it too

[slim quiver]

more people are going to be looking at how much multiplayer content there is at launch

[soft kayak]

I dont care. That happens anyway

[slim quiver]

which btw criterion was brought on to handle post release content

[radiant prism]

By the way, you do realize the SP and MP have two completely different teams working on them, right? Its not like working on SP is going to actively draw vital resources away from MP, especially with this big of a team working on the game

[thin rain]

Your opinion might be that a singleplayer doesn't matter, but stop presenting it as fact unless you have something backing it up.

[wise edge]

So you want to pay as much so they would let a fraction of the money being put vack in the game

[slim quiver]

thats why i dont think theyre really working on a fleshed out campaign lol

[soft kayak]

Its not like working on SP is going to actively draw vital resources away from MP, especially with this big of a team working on the game
The single player guys can work on multiplayer. Its not like game designers can only make one type of game.

[radiant prism]

Still, don't you think the omission of what has been a standard mode in the past would be a rather glaring one to a lot of people? I think a mediocre campaign is better than no campaign at all

[soft kayak]

I want to pay for multiplayer instead of some multiplayer and some crapot campaign

[slim quiver]

why would a mediocre campaign be better than no campaign when its just work wasted

[radiant prism]

Writers and cutscene designers be damned, I guess. Also, SP level design and MP level design are two VERY different animals.

[soft kayak]

Most people on the single player team arent writers

[wise edge]

There's entire multiplayers games that are being updated and developed with a fraction of what Bf gets in microtranscation alone

[slim quiver]

why would you want something in a game people will meme and complain about

[radiant prism]

Better than no effort put in at all

[soft kayak]

not relevant to my point
Remember: its manpower not money

[radiant prism]

Guess thats just me though

[slim quiver]

idk that effort could have been allocated elsewhere to bolster something people already like

[radiant prism]

Guess DICE can't take a chance at creating something amazing because of the moderate chance of sub-par reception

[thin rain]

Wait... don't tell me ur argument is that ppl are gonna meme and complain if there is singleplayer but be completely fine if not... please don't

[slim quiver]

ehh other games have 1 team handling both

[arctic grove]

I can't add my card to discord

Im sad

[wise edge]

Yes it is,most of the money put back in the multiplayer will have almost no effect on the quality of the game

[slim quiver]

oh ofc not, they will do both

[radiant prism]

With this big of a team, that can't possibly be a pressing issue.

[slim quiver]

because nobody is ever happy

[soft kayak]

I will be annoyed if we have another manpower tumor drain from multiplayer

[slim quiver]

we arent developers for DICE so we dont know and with covid screwing everything up who knows

[radiant prism]

With the amount of studios working on this game, I will be shocked if theres a press for resources or need for bolstering anywhere

[nova torrent]

who pinged me

[soft kayak]

so what would the single player game designers do once put on the multiplayer team?

[thin rain]

Rarely how studios work. They have a budget for multiplayer, if they decide to also make singleplayer it would have its own sub-budget.

[slim quiver]

they brought criterion on just to handle post release content

[nova torrent]

I thought i had this channel blocked

That's typical for here

Ok

Is le fine

[radiant prism]

Welcome to BFD...

[soft kayak]

still bitching about time, still not leaving.

[wise edge]

Probably work on something that wont have any impact

[soft kayak]

like what?

[radiant prism]

Nah it is rather comical that this has been going on for an hour with still no resolution

[nova torrent]

Remember when trinova and nyphon argued abt why SLRs are better than bolt actions for AN HOUR AND A HALF?

LMAO

[potent matrix]

I'm hypeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed

[wise edge]

Money =/= quality of the game

[slim quiver]

I think the whole point is not every dev has two teams working on separate things. Companies can have a Team A and Team B work on all elements of the game, it may be separate roles but they all develop in a way that molds the game together perfectly

[potent matrix]

I need lars now

[soft kayak]

cause theyre broken records.

[potent matrix]

[misty lake]

BFV is a trash game

[nova torrent]

anyways byyyyyyyeeeee

Never coming back to this shit channel

[thin rain]

The developers that worked on the singleplayer will either move on to a new project or join a maintenance team.

[soft kayak]

answer the question. What would they make?

[misty lake]

go play on your ps4

[slim quiver]

definitely not the case for all games

[misty lake]

and bfv is a trash game

[radiant prism]

Its funny, because the general trend is that people who say BFV is trash generally haven't touched the game for more than an hour

[wise edge]

There plenty of examples of games where they millions only for it to be a giantic tured

[soft kayak]

answer the question. What would they make?

[thin rain]

Tell me for a triple A studio what they do then, get fired?

[jagged otter]

I don't like BFV

played it for like 40h or something

let me check

[wise edge]

Nothing they are single player guys not multiplayer ones

[slim quiver]

You must not realize how Dark souls is actually developed if you think devs working on single player going to maintenance. From software @thin rain

[radiant prism]

See theres a difference between not liking a game (which is totally valid) and calling it outright trash

[soft kayak]

so they get put on the multiplayer team and just twiddle their thumbs? Fat chance

[slim quiver]

the PVP multiplayer is built into the single player experience

[jagged otter]

30 actually

[slim quiver]

they all work on the same project

[radiant prism]

Especially when that game has some notable backers

[soft kayak]

he was dodging the question

[misty lake]

still the game is trash

[jagged otter]

You know

[misty lake]

where did he go

[jagged otter]

I was in a boarding school

[misty lake]

yo

[thin rain]

Not every game is developed the same way, franchise games always have the devs move on to new projects(start them up) when there is no need for 100% of them on the same thing.

[jagged otter]

and if we didn't like the food the kitchen served us

[slim quiver]

thats why i just said not every game does what you said they did

[jagged otter]

and we said "The food tastes disgusting" "It's trash"

[thin rain]

Franchise games do though... they move on

[slim quiver]

Not every game development will be the same

[radiant prism]

I mean, if you don't like the game, you don't like the game. Doesn't mean everyone's gonna agree @misty lake

[misty lake]

5h only

[jagged otter]

We'd get in deep fucking trouble and have to say it to the kitchens chef personally

Always say that YOU don't like xyz thing

[radiant prism]

So then by that logic, why are we even talking about BFV in this whole debacle?

[wise edge]

Yes, that's why i am saying that putting more resources wont always have an impact on the quality of the game

[jagged otter]

You prefer something else

[radiant prism]

yep

[jagged otter]

don't generalize

[slim quiver]

BFV is largely criticized for its lack of multiplayer content, thats why it was relevant

[misty lake]

am just saying the game is a trash game and a guy was like NAHHHH

[radiant prism]

BFV's development conditions are evidentially waaaay different than this game's.

[soft kayak]

explain to me why they would be incapable of making multiplayer content
I understand that single player is a different process. Why does that mean the singleplayer guys are incapable of multiplayer maps and going through that different process?

[radiant prism]

Because he (and I as well) disagrees with your opinion? I'm failing to see the issue here.

[slim quiver]

i mean the whole point is they still spent time on a campaign that could have been completely discarded

[wise edge]

BfV was developed in 18 months lmao

[radiant prism]

But then the game would've just been criticized for not having a campaign in a WW2 game.

[slim quiver]

still wouldnt have been criticized for 3 years about no content

[radiant prism]

DICE had to pick the lesser of two evils here, and they'll do the same again this time.

[slim quiver]

you know BFV was criticized before,during, and after

[misty lake]

best bf game is bf3 and 4

who withe me

[wise edge]

If you ask someone to make something that costs 700$ and you give them 10000$, there's 9300$ that will go to waste

[radiant prism]

I seriously doubt ignoring a campaign would've magically fixed all of BFV's content issues.

[pastel forge]

BF1 was really fun

[soft kayak]

that doesnt answer the question at all

[radiant prism]

Like I SERIOUSLY doubt that.

[slim quiver]

whos to say, it just would have freed up time they were already rushed on

[misty lake]

yeah but not like bf3

[wise edge]

Yes it does use your brain cells

[pastel forge]

I didn’t play bf3

I got BF1 as my first battlefield then I bought bf5 in beta and then bought bf4

[radiant prism]

I say its pretty unlikely that we'd have gotten much more than what we got.

[soft kayak]

@wise edge why should I take you seriously when you keep dodging the question. Ill ask again.

Why are they incapable of making multiplayer stuff?

[misty lake]

what are you doing go play the game its super fun

[pastel forge]

Bf3 is still active?

[radiant prism]

Because designing content for MP and designing content for SP is two VERY different animals.

[snow sandal]

It's about their whole job changing and that also means pay, hours etc might change as well

[soft kayak]

why are they incapable of the different kind of work? (not the writers, I mean everyone selse)

[wise edge]

I am answering your questions but you are to thick to understand

[jagged otter]

murph

[misty lake]

you can find some server's

[soft kayak]

youre not

[radiant prism]

Yeah, fuck the writers.

[jagged otter]

Their work doesn't really differ

[wise edge]

Holy shit dude

[soft kayak]

answer it directly

[wise edge]

Is my english not understandable?

[radiant prism]

"Disregarding the most blatantly incapable group of people, why would anyone be incapable???"

[wise edge]

Am i speaking Chinese this whole time?

[soft kayak]

I am asking you why they cannot do the job. Answer this question

[jagged otter]

ni hao

[soft kayak]

its also likely the smallest

[misty lake]

you can find some server's

on pc

i dont know on ps3

[radiant prism]

大家说中文：）

[soft kayak]

answer: theyre not

[misty lake]

japan

[radiant prism]

Ok, what about cutscene artists? What about SP level designers?

[wise edge]

Because it isn't their job

[soft kayak]

people are not forced into one job for their whole life

[jagged otter]

look guys

[thin rain]

I am confused what is even argued at this point

[jagged otter]

I'm on the develop story side

but their work doesn't really differ

[slim quiver]

who knows

[jagged otter]

The writers work, yeah

[radiant prism]

They aren't, but people tend to specialize in one or two specific things in their line of work if they're any good at their job.

[jagged otter]

Level design? Maybe

[wise edge]

Then go pay their reconversion

[jagged otter]

But you can easily move most people from SP development to MP without any major problems

The engine is the same

[soft kayak]

sure but were talking from game designer to a different game designer

[jagged otter]

and the workflow is too I'd imagine

Not really

[radiant prism]

You do realize that SP level design and MP level design are two vastly different animals, right?

[soft kayak]

@jagged otter the most reasonable one here

[thin rain]

Wait... so you're saying both teams know programming!? omg!!!

[slim quiver]

you must not know what gaming journalists are like

[jagged otter]

Well, I don't like most of your takes

[slim quiver]

what i mean is

[jagged otter]

but that one is kinda right

[slim quiver]

you can be in graphic design

[thin rain]

hahaha SKB

[slim quiver]

and be a gaming journalist

[jagged otter]

gotta give credit where credit is due.

[slim quiver]

I know gaming community managers that were never even graphic design or communications majors, instead they were literally history majors

what was your point then about specializing

because people specialize through education and then end up doing different things all the time

[radiant prism]

SP levels have to be fun to move through (emphasis on through), often have to look different or have different mechanics (triggered events, AI mapping), and have to tell a story of some kind. MP level design is completely different for a plethora of reasons, especially with Battlefield.

[thin rain]

I know people with no education who are successful in software development

[soft kayak]

@jagged otter, @radiant prism Thanks for being respectful and coherent despite disagreeing. And thank you for not driving the conversation in circles. I'm going to head out.

[wise edge]

It think it is craming people somewhere were they aren't needed won't have any meaningful impact

[thin rain]

Can't box people in that easily

[radiant prism]

In the context of game development, though, you're going to want people with experience if you want the best chance of a good product. Trying to switch someone's focus mid-development isn't often a good idea in this context.

[wise edge]

Putting SP guys with Mp guys when they don't nees their help won't make the game better

[slim quiver]

Okay now this i agree with

[radiant prism]

Exactly, especially with this many people working on the game.

[wise edge]

Most of the problem of game is solved with more time not more manpower

[thin rain]

I think they should just hire me and SKB

problem solved

😏

[slim quiver]

cyberpunk was a good game, just nothing revolutionary

[radiant prism]

Hoo boy

[slim quiver]

it was just another action FPS rpg

[wise edge]

Their developers are still recovering from their unpaid overtime

[slim quiver]

but the side stories were pretty cool

[radiant prism]

or is it just you

[thin rain]

I don't understand how Cyberpunk was that hard for them to make, anyone know about that actually?

[slim quiver]

a lot of complaints about cyberpunk were personal. If the game didnt work for you or you played on old gen.

[wise edge]

If BfV had more than 18months to be developed it would have been a good game imo

[radiant prism]

Uhh...a number of reasons probably.

Huge expectations, probably

[thin rain]

Like the quality was so bad though

[slim quiver]

it wasnt, they literally admitted they focused on next gen and PC more when developing the game and severely neglected last gen

[radiant prism]

Expectations that probably would've needed at least another decade to meet

[wise edge]

It tries to be a lot of different things at the same time

[thin rain]

I only watched the game, but when I was told it was triple A and they had yeaaaars to make it, so many simple things wrong

[radiant prism]

"quite"

[wise edge]

Without the proper time to actually make it

[thin rain]

Something as simple as a car turning it would drive diagonally from the direction of the wheels....

[radiant prism]

The game probably bounced around development hell for a while

[slim quiver]

the thing is, GTA V Is the 2nd best selling video game of all time, and if anyone remembers how that game was at launch and then waiting 3-4 years for heists to actually show up in the game which were promised before release. Cyberpunk has nothing on that game, yet nobody mentions that, or when skyrim was unplayable on PS3 for almost a year because of crashing, file corruption and everything else under the sun

[tight abyss]

cyberpunk 2077 on ps4 was a disaster lmao

[jagged otter]

1 year

[slim quiver]

Cyberpunk devs got too much hate for something that other games have won game of the year after committing the same crimes

[wise edge]

The game couldn't even be lunched for them

[scarlet veldt]

lets goooo

[tight abyss]

GTA 5 on PS3 took centuries to load tho

[slim quiver]

it would crash immediately

[wise edge]

Goodnight my dude

[slim quiver]

i played gta V on xbox 360 and the same happened

either way i guess what im saying is the devs got too much hate

GTA and Skyrim devs got off easy

in fact skyrim won game of the year before you could play it on ps3

i remember if you accidentally walked into water your ps3 froze

gaming community has become too spoiled in the sense where they play a game at launch and expect it to work immediately

[thin rain]

it better be on Steam

or else

[slim quiver]

i think it will be

look at the deal recently with EA play on steam

[jagged otter]

Yo

Anyone know a "ImKev" btw?

Those are just guesses

Nothings solved

[jagged otter]

I must've taken the blue pill then

I think they are talking about this (look at OG again after checking me fkd up lines) https://gyazo.com/06b602dccfea3c094a2050544abb3356

[jagged otter]

nah man

Major vibes right there

lol

it's literally just a bunch of rectangles

[thin rain]

I found a similar much clearer shape in one of the frames when I was going through it earlier

[chrome notch]

can anyone tell me what the result of those videos were, or are they not done yet

[jagged otter]

nothing

[chrome notch]

Great

[thin rain]

SKB knows, keep bothering him until he tells you

[jagged otter]

We've tried overlapping them uuuh

what else

put them side by side

[chrome notch]

Maybe slow them down/reverse them

[radiant prism]

What videos?

[jagged otter]

There were green lines, thought they were morse

[thin rain]

Tried all kinds of filters and stuff too

[jagged otter]

yup

[thin rain]

We tried reverse and slowed down

[jagged otter]

nope

[chrome notch]

Hold up, what exact shapes did you see

[jagged otter]

That doesn't make any sense

[radiant prism]

Wait what videos

[jagged otter]

Teasers

[chrome notch]

Well minecraft disc 13 was reversed and it had a story

[radiant prism]

Oh the ones that came out today?

[jagged otter]

Videos without audio don't work like that dude.

[radiant prism]

Yeah there were distorted images found in a few of them

[chrome notch]

tru

Hmm

[jagged otter]

Audio? Maybe

[radiant prism]

Attack helicopters, skyscrapers, and I think a soldier or two

[jagged otter]

Video? Nah

[chrome notch]

Did you flip them 180

[jagged otter]

bro

trust me

we tried almost every trick in the book

[chrome notch]

I know what you mean

[radiant prism]

They didn't need any manipulation, a lot of stuff was discovered by just pausing it and looking at it frame by frame

[jagged otter]

[chrome notch]

alr then- what are we supposed to expect from that

[jagged otter]

nothing

[radiant prism]

What do you mean by expect?

[jagged otter]

it's a teaser

[chrome notch]

exactly

[radiant prism]

Like this one, there appears to be an attack helicopter in this frame from one of the videos

Another has a skyscraper

Theres a variety of them, some of them clearer than others

I'd imagine there'll be something tomorrow too

[kindred mason]

There is also another image showing a woman comforting her child(?)

[chrome notch]

Yeah, its the hype thing they do in the leadup to a new game

There is lots of games that do that/did that

[radiant prism]

yes

thats...what we're saying

1 teaser a week be better. 1 teaser a day we would basically know everything by the time the game comes out.

There is 5 days until the game is revealed

That’s less than a week

[radiant prism]

Actually only 3 days

[kindred mason]

[radiant prism]

They mean one teaser a day until the 9th

[lime torrent]

ngl i'd share a lot more of my videos if i didn't have to make people download them when i share

for instance today when trying to get away from a plane in bfv I landed in the water (still in the plane), but it was shallow enough that it stopped me and i landed on the beach. A friendly tank came out and spent a couple minutes trying to push me so i could aim my aircraft the other way, only for us both to get destroyed by an enemy tank :c

[frank stratus]

i mean in bf1 me and 2 other guys was getting on a car i went on top and then i wanted to be passenger and the moment i went in passenger some guy in a tank shot us and we died

[radiant fiber]

has anyone figured out anything about the emergency broadcasts?

yeah

what's that link to

[arctic lintel]

although BF2042 was a name that i had thought as a possibility before any leak pointing towards that direction

id quite like that as the name

oh also there was that thing with the 3600 hours = 150 days = 21.42(rounded to 21.43) weeks

LETS GET SOME FUCKING HYPEEEE

[halcyon hatch]

Did you guys see the new videos

[arctic lintel]

wonder what tomorrow's little tease from Battlefield will be

[arctic grove]

One pixel from the game

[halcyon hatch]

Yeah I think they are releasing daily stuff now

Yesterday: the transmission

[arctic lintel]

yeah, loving it

like a lead up to the reveal

[arctic grove]

From Battlefield?

[halcyon hatch]

Today: the distorted video clips

[arctic grove]

[arctic lintel]

pls tease some of the music next Battlefield

[halcyon hatch]

I was shitting on the PR team a while ago for their vagueness but now I must say they are doing a good job hyping up the game

[arctic grove]

Man I’m so hype

Please be modern combat

[halcyon hatch]

It definitely has a distorted electric vibe

I’m expecting a more warped version of 3 or 4

For the main theme

[arctic grove]

I want it to be like 3 so bad

[halcyon hatch]

One thing battlefield always does right is it’s soundtrack

Never misses

[arctic grove]

Bf3 soundtrack main theme

[halcyon hatch]

Yeah

[halcyon hatch]

That would make sense if this is near future as many believe

But then again

[arctic lintel]

id even just want a "DUN DUN DUNNNN DUN DUN DUNNN" little music tease (just the BF beat)

[halcyon hatch]

They are probably going along with the main idea to garner support for their “leak”

[arctic grove]

If they don’t call this game battlefield 6

We riot

Unless they go to bad company 3

[halcyon hatch]

I’m pretty sure it’s been confirmed to just be called “battlefield”

Which I have nothing against

[arctic grove]

[charred cedar]

Battlefield hero’s 2

Lol

[arctic grove]

They can’t make this game battlefield only

Because what’s the next game

Going to be

[halcyon hatch]

It’s because they are doing a soft reset

[halcyon hatch]

Battlefield 1

[arctic lintel]

my guess would be either "Battlefield", "Battlefield 2042", or "Battlefield 2143"

[charred cedar]

Battlefield hero’s 3

[arctic grove]

2042 sounds very likely

[arctic lintel]

although 2143 seems unlikely

ye

[halcyon hatch]

The videos shown today show a at least somewhat modern setting

So I’m betting on near 2030s

Or around

[tropic granite]

Wait what

[arctic lintel]

i would be into 2042, it just has that ring to it and relates to previous installments while also making sense time wise

[halcyon hatch]

Yeah

[tropic granite]

where can I find video

[halcyon hatch]

Jack made one about them today

It’s only 4 minutes long

Fast watch

[arctic lintel]

plus BF2042 is better than just BF - just battlefield could be confusing when searching stuff up about the game

[tropic granite]

oh

[arctic grove]

EXACTLY

[radiant prism]

Yeah, thats why I was hesitant to believe it would just be called "battlefield"

[arctic lintel]

CoD Modern Warfare worked because people called it MW19 (for 2019, when it was released)

and i dont want this Battlefield to be called BF2021

when it technically has another setting yknow

[halcyon hatch]

Yeah

[arctic lintel]

its definitely plausible but yeah

[radiant prism]

BF2021 is just a blanket term to refer to this year's release while we don't know the official name

[halcyon hatch]

I still think it’s battlefield

[radiant prism]

Guess we'll find out in....

[halcyon hatch]

As that’s the only title we’ve gotten

[radiant prism]

!when

[radiant prism]

^that long

[dreamy surge]

As long as it's modern, I'm happy

[arctic lintel]

yeah and im quite optimistic about the modern + near future twist

quite a lot of potential

[arctic grove]

Robot dogs

I’m worried they will end up makin a futuristic game but with 3 and 4’s aesthetics
