What are the political implications of Call Of Duty losing its #1 spot for the first time ever this year?https://www.tomshardware.com/video-games/pc-gaming/battlefield-6-peaks-at-747-000-concurrent-players-newly-launched-game-ranks-among-the-top-three-most-played-on-steam-today
>>518728665We've entered one of middle sign-tapped stages.
faggot who play either of those are pretty gaybtw we have a containment board for niggers like you>>>/vg/
>>518729201wtf is this board.. nice. /v/ is pure cancer. but looks like people are actually talking games here.
i would rather they lose #1 by less people paying for that trash instead of more people paying for other trash
>>518728665Nobody gives a shit about Battlefield and Call of Duty, I know you're a fucking retarded millennial who thinks it's 2012. We all play Counter Strike here, which is real FPS. Your Battlefield is just another Call of Duty, another generic FPS with no sens.
NIGGAS IS BORED!!!
>>518728665It's a bit like the millennials who hyped the crap "Helldiver 2", with hundreds of thousands of players, died 2 weeks later"FOR THE DEMOCRACY" i hate millenials faggot
>>518728665From what i know, and take this info as you will>game companies are putting around this chunk of cash aside to buy their own games so they dont flop at start like Concord did.whatever you want with this info
>>518729971>We all play Counter Strike here, which is real FPSHm. Its just point and click simulator with guns.No bullet drop, no vehicles. Not a real military fps. Its an area shooter.
>>518728665The demo was really boring so im not getting it.
After a 5 year break from vidya, more or less, I've bought Silksong lately and I can confidently say that video games suck ass now
>>518728665>there are millions of useless eaters who still play video games in the 2020sThat’s astoundingwho are these fucking vaccinated indoors cattle
>>518730374Video games are fucking gay faggot zoomer shit for dopamine starved ADHD Freaks of the internet 2.0 age and anyone who gets joy from video games in the 2020s in their hamster wheel flashing lights brain should be castrated
>>518729971I'm a millennial and played Counter-Strike in 1999.
>>518728665Wow it's like 2011 never ended
>>518728665How are games for degenerates political?
>>518729006fpbp
>gaming is completely dead and irrelevant >Guys cock of dooty modern gayfuck stupidDumbass shitskin series
>>518729971No counter strike is fake and gay since it went Free to Play and got infested with cheaters. Online PvP FPS in general are a waste of time.
>>518731475>since it went Free to Playwhen the fuck has counter strike not been free? It came with HL2Also, battlefield was always better than CoD, vehicles and 64 v 64 games are fun
>>518728665>political implicationsbuy an ad
>>518729971>nobody cares$100 million in sales says otherwise though.
>>518730374I bought a steam deck and I cant fucking play anything besides replaying GTA and halo and older titles I never got to play for whatever reason. Everything new sucks ass, and even then at 34 it just feels like a fucking chore to play more than 30 min. I dont get how my coworkers my age still get hype and play like theyre teenagers. It's kinda weird cuz I think back to my father at this age and he never played vidya except with my when I was like 4
>>518728665Go woke go broke
>>518731779>when has CS not been freeThe first decade of CS 1, and the first decade of CS GO.>it came withYou still had to buy the HL/CS bundle or The Orange Box(which also came with TF2 before if went free to play)
>>518729614it's a board where every game has its own general. How new are you?
>>518731903What did your father do in his spare time, watch the electric jew? Sit outside wrenching on a project car future generations couldn't hope to afford, let alone work on if they live in an apartment?
>>518730374>buys indy gay shitwhy are germs like this
>>518731779GO wasn't free.
>>518731902>10,000 people in every country cares! And 50 million Chinese and Indians care! So nobody
>>518728665I wanted to play it but I can't be arsed to do all the secure boot thing
>>518728665BF franchise died with bf1EA realise with this one they could make generic garbage and people will stay play it and say its goodEverything that came after was worst and worstBF6 is no exception, its just a reskin of 2042 with extra stuff, it feels and play the samewhen i heard faggots saying "BF is back" i laught, those people have never played a real BF like bf2/2142
>>518729971>We all play Counter Strike hereBased Been playing since 2002 no other fps comes close
>>518732541It's all viral marketing from tiktok, that's why the industry is dead but sales are up
>>518732249>GO wasn't freeI already stopped vidya for the most part by then
>>518729614Since when is a cgi movie with 5min walkable passages each, between the movie scenes, a game? Cod and bf are movies with interactive, little, playable acts. That's all.
>>518732757??? You haven't played a CoD or Battlefield in like a decade have you nigger hahahaha
>>518732541>never played a real BF like bf2/2142BF 1942 was kino
>>518730374>Have giant backlog>Keep buying games on sale>When I finally get free time, the only thing I ever play is picrossPlease, someone, tell me how to stop.
>>518731903Playing vidya gives me this sense of dread because i know what im chasing is being a naive young kid again which can never happen. I barely watch tv or movies anymore either but thats because theyre pandering shit
>>518731475We all play Faceit retard
>>518731048I was playing yahoo pool. Whatever happened to online games like that? It's like no one wants you to meet people and talk anymore. Chat rooms used to be the bomb too.
>>518733068Are you me? Combined with a near eidetic memory and I can't even replay games I've already played because I remember all the story beats and it becomes boring. I have no idea what to do with my time anymore.
>keeps playing Nintendo
>>518728665Incorrect. The only option was to make BC3. BF6 is trash. Ninja Gaiden 4 is the only game worth trying.>but what aboutIncorrect, nigger. Elden Ring is trash. Souls games are trash and unoriginal Zelda clones.>but muh pre ordersPathetic, brainless nigger faggot slave.
>>518728665BF was always bigger on PCs, whereas CoD was primarily console oriented. PC copies of CoD were always behind and amount of players was literally near zero. Given the fact that CoD is a annual franchise, shit wont even last. Most of the time biggest hype is around 6 months of big player count, then it drops to almost nothing and after 1-2 years the title loses its appeal altogether. Not only that - CoD devs/publishers are scrooge-jews who will suck every penny and never do any significant sales below maybe 50% and even then its like ONCE a year on SOME titles. Thus the games NEVER catch up again in popularity because there are new games and older ones are still to expensive for poors and playerbase is lacking. CoD also never had eye gazing graphics, but BF had even back in the 2011, which is still pretty appealing. CoD devs also cockblock Steam in order to push their platform, so even less attratction. Old CoD titles like MW2/BO1 are also inmfested with hackers on PC and some can enter backdoor to your PC and transfer viruses (see info yourself). They dont give a fuck about anything and print games like hot cakes
>>518728665>BF6 dethrones codyeah by turning battlefield into cod. it shouldn't be called battlefield because the game is completely different now.
>>518731902Gaben receives this much money from selling gambling cases in CS2 in half a year. They also implement transactons in Dota 2 and Team Fortress 2. Imagine the cash they receive just from some bullcrap microtransactions. Game developing and sales are literal pennies for them.
>>518732080you retard, almost everyone back in the 90s and 00s had a non-steam/pirated copy of Counter Strike off of internet (torrents) because it did not matter if you had genuine or fake copy - because almost all servers and features are available and there is no difference. No cracks or patches needed. Download, install, connect to server (which were community made anyway) and play.
>>518732972>Desert combat/Eve of destructionwith all the mod available in 1942 you had a dozen games into one, absolut kinoi still put bf2/2142 above because of the commander rolei was addicted to that shit and that completely dissapeared in the next games
>>518731779>when the fuck has counter strike not been free? It came with HL2Original counter strike was fucking HL mod.
>>518733068The dread may simply be the fact that the distraction the game provides from your core self is fake and that you should develop your inner calmness instead. Not chase the fake excitement that is an "idea" or a "longing" from the heart, but instead become grounded in your body, and to align yourself with truth.I just wanted to tell you about another possibility you can sink time into.
>>518733309I find reading, exercise and cooking are great ways to fill time, learning a creative hobby is also very rewarding and theres plenty of different types to pick from be it drawing, painting, music, even cooking if youre cooking intricate dishes
>>518734599I'm on the spectrum so creative endeavors are out. The only enjoyment I find is playing picross on autopilot while my brain veg's out. It feels like I'm just running down the clock on my life at times.
>>518733068>I barely watch tv or movies anymore either but thats because theyre pandering shitModern TV-shows mostly suck. Movies for adults died with streaming killing home video sales, movies that flopped in cinemas, could also return money with DVD sales, then came streaming. Home video sales allowed medium budget cinema to exist. Now its only low budget indies and massive budget blockbusters that can't offend anyone. BluRay never fully replaced DVD on market, before streaming nuked both.When it comes to gaming. Mainstream AAA-releases are mostly trash, for same reason most blockbuster films, massive budgets lead to bland shit because product can't offend anyone and alienate any potential audience. There is all kinds of indie games that are good every now and then.

>>518729971>We all play Counter Strike here, which is real FPS.Yes, BF and CoD are just fortnite for teenagers instead of toddlers
>>518733017This is literally me but with Rocket League instead.
>>518730038>"FOR THE DEMOCRACY" i hate millenials faggotThat is Gen-X and Boomers, Millennials are known for their apathy about "society", not promoting fake shit like "democracy". There are no gaming studio heads and upper management millennials, they are all GenX/boomies
>>518730038>"FOR THE DEMOCRACY" i hate millenials faggotI should be the last person to defend the pozzed up faggots that compose Arrowhead Game Studios, but Super Earth is about as much of a Democracy as my ass is a moon.
Never played a single minute of battlegoy ever
>>518735918Bad Company 2 was the last time this franchise was good.
You're telling me people bought the new battlefield after they got rid of WW1 niggers and trans cyber arm lesbians?
Counter-Strike is the only good FPS game, ever other game is dogshit that can't solve something that CS did in 1999, fucking retards. CS is designed in a way to make it actually competitive and fair
>>518735954I assure you 100% that there was never a good battlegoy or call of goy game ever and to top it off only the most retarded low iq niggercattle i have ever known in my life have ever even spoken to me about these games and to my knowledge have played them.High iq chads are naturally not drawn to such goyslop games.
>>518736066CoD is a dead franchise, so every normie got BF. Meanwhile CS chads will keep on winning
>>518728665>TPM 2.0>secure boot>its rootkit conflicts with valorant's rootkitGaymers deserve what they get, they're the OG vaxxoids. They have been taking every single lockstep up the ass for about 2 decades now.
>>518735472>Hopefully CGI AI films can give medium budget cinema a comeback. Maybe, even low budget CGI films will be able to be awesome.Problem with medium budget cinema dying is that it killed talent pipeline. Both for acting talent and people behind camera. Take a look at most bankable actors. It is full of old as fuck guys. Hardly anyone who started their career in last decade. Old guys being slowly replaced, because they get too old to do stuff they used to do. What medium budget cinema allowed, is talent growth. Some guy who did indie movie or two and maybe showed up in a fucking soap opera got chance to headline a production with decent budget and production values. Its equally bad for talent behind the camera, writers and directors. No chance to prove themselves worth of doing shit with higher budgets.AI generated slop can do nothing if there isn't good story telling to back it up, it might make low budget indie movies more of spectacles, but that is about it. Film as art is all about illusion of reality. Partially generated by meat in front of camera interacting with shit around them. If its actors in front green screen it will have issues.Unironically streaming market fracturing, none of services have enough catalogue to be worth paying for it, that might provide comeback for physical media sales, in theory it might give a chance for medium budget cinema to return.
>>518728665Didn't know there is a new battlefield and I don't care all the original developers left so it's just another empty shadow of itself... Gaming is pure slop now. I would not be surprised if they manipulated the sales numbers
