>>563304789Somehow... it survives
>>563305618As long as the threads keep making it to bump limit, I will keep making them here.
I cried for a few minutes when I couldn't find this general in the catalog. I literally had a panic attack.
>>563306929Its gonna be rough from here on out lol. Season 3 isn't exactly close
>>563304789this is such a shitty content drop. why cant they at least do some more substantial balance updates during these shitty segments so it's not just a month of using the same weapons and vehicles.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9apyI2YN9b0our guy has spoken. we are back.
>>563312435what a faggot
>>563305618RedSec chads will endureUntil solos drop
>>563307615With luck, we'll get more leaks and official info on what's coming for season 3 within the next couple of weeks. So far we have just one of the maps and a list of upcoming weapons and some attachments/gadgets. There's at least one other map, possibly more gadgets, AND we don't know next season's gimmick yet.
>>563312435You know, once you get past him being a shill, I like Jackfrags. He's the prototypical battledad that just wants to chill out and play the game to have fun, and he still manages to sneak criticism without breaking his shill contract. That whole mortar video was probably more influential than any level of whining Enders or Eclipse can manage.
>>563315289I liked his video on the M136 AT4. Didn't have much of an appreciation for it before now, but If the RPG is gonna get gutted, it'll be good to learn how to use it for choppers. Better than the lock-on launchers at least.
>"sowwy wagie, you run out of time to unlock your op smg, now you have to wait until the end of the season tee hee"
>>563317615I've been unemployed for 6 months and haven't opened up BF6 since early February
The railing in the defense nexus is the most cancer thing in this game. Retards keep killing me through it while all my bullets just magically disappear.
>>563317373Guided launchers are easy. You focus on the red dot of a rocket, not your aiming point, and then guide the missile based on that. That said, the relatively low velocity and the requirement to ADS before you can shoot makes it less versatile than the RPG-7 even if they nerf it. The total lack of drop is kind of nice though, so it's not too hard to get rocket countersnipes if the sniper is a dipshit.But if they really want to solve this RPG-7 issue, they're going to have to introduce another unguided launcher, either a SMAW or a Carl Gustav, so you can have one relatively slow, but more powerful rocket, vs. a faster, less powerful rocket. The RPG-7 became such a ubiquitous launcher because it fills both roles at the same time, but most players generally choose unguided launchers since they're so versatile.
>>563315289>I like JackfragsKill yourselfHis videos are absolute shit. Stretching a 1 minute long video into 15 minutes of his atrocious gameplay so he can stay unemployed. Absolute garbage tier content.
>>563312435>thumbnail isn't doing the gun inspect animation
>going to finish the match with zero death tank run>enemy engineer (((((appears))))) behind me at the last 10 seconds and 2 shots me
>>563317783I was logging in and doing dailies on and off but at some point after they released Haagendas Base the game started hard crashing my entire PC so I just uninstalled it
ded
yeah just /vm/ us already when this one 404s
>>563313134I am honestly curious if they're even going to try the 3 map thing That message has been consistent even from the shills
>beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep >beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep >beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep >TOO LOW
>open weapons is still a thingcan the muslims please destroy sweden already?
>>563343059What's the point of this thing over the stinger? Seems like a massive piece of shit
>>563344258mudslimes are the reason why we have open weapons in the first place
No seriously, what the fuck is going on with how the game does matchmaking now? 9 out 0f 10 games are stupidly 1-sided, like the Conquest winning team still having 900+ tickets.
>>5633511253 more years and it will become underrated trust the plan
>>563317615I'm so mad at this, I didn't realise there was an event with a weapon, came back in the last day, played till I was falling asleep in my chair, only had 1 challenge left... "i'll take a nap and come back later, still got 10h to complete this"... literally sleep for 10h and miss itFUCKING FUCK I HATE MODERN GAMING SO FUCKING MUCH IT'S UNREAL
>>563275425idk I just feel like I'm missing something with it. I try to go for chest + headshots but dont seem to have success. I even dropped the cheap grip to put a 1.00x on iti know probably skill issue etc etc but I never had these problems with shotguns in bf4
>>563317615I play very casually, like maybe an hour or two not even every day, and I still unlocked it with several days left. I'm not even that good, maybe slightly above average, don't understand how people are so shit at the game they don't fulfill the challenges over an entire week.
>>563353043if you played for the entire duration sure, it's free, but if, like me, realized this was a thing in the very last day, it might be a bit tight, especially considering the game is completely dead outside the evening hours
How over it is for me at this point? I finished all challenges available.I got some shitty bp exp tokens, maybe if I lock in during peak hours I can complete it before the season ends?
>>563362765arent there still like 4 more weeks of challenges or soseems easy to finish
>>563362765they changed the battlepass to be more xp needed and less challenges because too many people completed the last one just by playing once per week to do the challenges. so basically you're fucked unless you start playing daily.I'm in the same boat, I think I'm just two unlocks ahead of you. it's still possible, but you have to get through 9 tiers with points from xp alone. I was trying to keep track, and it felt like I was averaging 2 points per conquest match yesterday (as an above average player not playing like shit), so that's 45 full length matches to get the points for that, about 2 per day needed.>>563365540it's 60 points of challenges per week, which is only 6 tiers in the pass. with 4 weeks left that's only 24 tiers from challenges. unless they extend the season again.
>>563366781Yeah I'm gonna try to not forget to play every evening lol. I too get like 1-2 points per conquest.Sometimes I just remember and it's already midnight so it's pretty fucking slow and full of bots so I just stop.
did they add a server browser and Metro yet
>>563310695swedes are retards who are incapable of admitting they are wrong. why they havent removed 3D self spotting from the game this late in is absolutely retarded. the game just has a history of colossal mistakes that anyone could see is a problem but it still gets shipped anyway. original assignment requirements, daily xp caps, battlepass progression, flash passes mid season, no working air radar, jet cannons original damage (that got nerfed, but then .50 cal rotary cannon for little bird basically did the same thing on an easier to use platform). i could go on and on. there are so many glaring problems that they just completely ignore.
>>563373907no and there was a metro portal remake that was featured in the friday playlist but it was incredibly janky and ruined by people who figured out how to camp on A rooftops.
>>563373907>server browserno>metroyes it's called hagental or whatever the fuck
>play engineer>we are getting fucked by helicopters>switch RPG for AA>helicopters nowhere to be found>getting fucked by tanks>switch back to RPG>tanks disappear, helicopters are back>repeat
>>563374639For me it's the way they're shrinking Golmud. The big map that was chosen specifically because it's big in an attempt to please people who want a big map still needs to be smaller. Can't just leave it, have to make it smaller. They really can't help themselves.
>>563377590I really feel for the guys that make use of that extra space on old maps, BF6 just isn't welcoming to the players who sit on the edge of the map with a sniper rifle and go 7-2 every game.
>>563375945Gotta dumbfire those RPGs at the choppers. It's a one-shot if you can manage it and they can't just Below Radar it.
>>563378427Yeah, I do, but it's less about killing something than it is I always feel like I'm getting punished for doing my in-game 'job' rather than simply focusing on KDA.
>>563315289Once you get past the fact he's a shill you also realize he ruined the launch of the game by popularizing the exploits he could have just communicated to the devs he hangs out in discord with because he knows the devs aren't going to fix it and it'll make for a great performing set of vids.
they added a reddit motorbike that's fast and agile to the game with hitscan 0 recoil guns
Might be a stupid question, but when is the Redsec Elite Series starting?
>>563374639its all ego, and they do a little happy dance whenever someone blames ea because it paints dice as a poor victim indie developer when really they just dodge accountability
RemiderOptic reticle still looks like utter shit made by one indie dev in a basementHalf a month of best selling live service game of 2025 BTWNigger faggot dead game
battleuncs
>>563388741as long as the product is hyped up by streamers and you have a good marketing team (ie. paying for streamers) that's all it really takes, the actual content in the game is completely irrelevant. like 10 million people bought the goat simulator, a meme game, because streamers played it. 30 million bought bf6 because they paid for a streamer event that most likely cost a hundred million dollars at least, money that will never be invested into developing the game.
death of a game
Everyone complains about how the devs fucked up which is 100% true, but the devolving playerbase is the reason I mostly stopped playing.>supports never take smokes/use them, don't rez, don't drop ammo>engineers use rpgs to snipe people>majority of both teams play every single mode like team death match>Tanks mraps and even choppers are abandoned on enemy points at least once a game so you get completely rolledTbh this is also technically a dice issue (although unfixable at this point) since they decided to cater to non bf players and now it seems like the majority of people left are those players lol. Honorable mention to the netcode actually being worse now. Any game when i get one-framed by something like the s2 DMR I quit and do something else lol
>>563401716woah... so different compared to BFV, BF1, BF4 and BF3...wait no. It's the same fucking shit that always happened
>>563351125Seriously, I lost my last 10 matches to complete shitstomps in conquest over the last couple of nights of playing. Everyone is a controller player in my lobbies now with aimbot levels of autoaim. I don't want to sound like a schizo but it does sound like something changed
>>563401716The average battlefield player has always been a lobotomized chimpanzee. This isn't unique to BF6 and the cod kiddies that picked it up, though the crossplay definitely exacerbates the issue.
>>563382964probably never given that they fixed redsec crashes but never announced the tournament again. likely that EA quietly cancelled it given how much of a flop bf6 and especially redsec both are.
>>563348719they both suck absolute dicks. the only time they are ever useful is being a third party interruption in an air duel where even if one side wins they still get fucked. outside of that you'll never land a hit, and if you really wanted to kill helicopters (and even the occasional jet) you'd run guided shells on tanks or TOW on an ifv which kill helicopters much more frequently than AA missiles.
>>563413083They've got the ranked mode coming apparently. That'll probably be when they announce a tourney.
>>563382964According to streamers there will be a tourny once Season 3 starts. But I doubt they will make it a big one with these player numbers.
what did he mean by this
>>563433384bots in multiplayer are so fucking cringe
>>563433384kek the fucking stare
>>563433384>the signature stare of disapproval
>>563433384>April 12th, 2026: Pax carcass in alley this morning, tank tread on burst stomach. >This battlefield is afraid of me. I have seen its true face. >The map lanes are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the bots will drown. >The accumulated filth of all their snipers and mortars will foam up about their waists and all the consolefags and battledads will look up and shout 'Save us!'... >and I'll look down, and whisper 'no'
Wtf, I just realised that the M357 Trait revolver dumps all the unused bullets and inserts a full clip in. Was this always like that since launch or a recent patch changed the behaviour?
>>563405009>>563412529
>>563442630Nah dude. For PC players, the difference is substantial. Forced crossplay has only been a thing since 2042, and no one played that.
People crying about crossplay would rather play with bots, I guess? I'd much rather play with consolefags.
>>563438669It always did that?
>>563447767Bots don't have open mics while domestic violence occurs in the background
>>563450117I almost never get people with open mic here in Europe, and most lobbies are 90% pc players.When they have open mic, I can barely hear them, but I mute them because it lowers the game volume.Must be an American thing, I guess.
>>563450576NA servers are full of blacks on playstation mumbling loudly or breathing on open mic.
for some reason pulsar wireless mouse causes game crashing
>>563450117Mics are easy to silence on PC though.
>>563449995Just checked some videos on YouTube when it was first released and it looks like this was since launch. Never noticed it because you get so many bullets and I always thought the default behaviour for all guns were to reload and still keep all unused bullets.
>>563450117i always get children being yelled at by mom or some drunk guy with sports in the backgroundsometimes its fun to listen to them before game starts, then i mute
>>563456085i don't want to play with mongoloids who aren't smart enough to mute their mics whether or not I can hear them Server browser when
Did they ever fix the random hard crashing
>>563459469You've always played with those mongoloids anon. It just so happens that, unlike with consoles, the mongoloids on PC have their microphones off by default.
>BF1 has players but no weapon variety>BF4 has weapon variety but no playerswhy live
>jumpmaster drops at Nexus or Golf Course>I go elsewhere >they immediately die and start cryingthank god I'm not retarded
>>563465269>BF4>no playersWhy lie?
>>563470157I think the biggest lie is that Battlefield 4 has weapon variety when most people will just run Medic and the AEK-971.
>>563401716smokes really should have been universal, that's just another massive dev fuckup. every class has a reason to use smoke.
>>563465269>BF1 has playersmaybe for EU, for US servers are non existent.
>>563461926no. i just started getting it yesterday at the same time as a friend. hard crash to desktop with absolutely no error, both at random times. one in game, another while just changing weapon loadout without being in any game at all.
>>563463561I guarantee you that I haven't because the mongoloids im referring to are not known to play on pc
>haven't played since december 31st>check thread>remember it took them over 4 months to put a basic mrap in the game since it's announcementThese niggers deserve to fucking fail. This drip fed """live service""" garbage is the worst thing to happen to video games and doing this kinda shit in a game that costs full price is the most Jewish fucking cancer ever conceived. Have they even added the "new" vehicles to more than one map each yet?
>>563467184>cucksecNobody cares faggot, you're a lower life form.
>>563471819luckily Redsex is getting a competitive modemeanwhile unc modes get shitty versions of old maps
>>563461926I still get the Direct X error every so often but significantly less frequently than during the winter offensive patch
>>563472373That shoe existed before you were born you disgusting little amoeba
>>563471819>bf6 players>actually paid money for this shit>redsec players>hopefully did not spend money on this shiti know who's superior
>2042 dead>V dead>Hardline and 3 were never alive on PC to begin with>1 is neat to look at but gets boring very fast>4 is just ! [TBG] LOCKER ALL WEAPONS ! and nothing elseWhat am I even supposed to play
>>5634743723 popped off on pc when it launched and for the entirety of its release cycle. never once had problems finding servers for conquest or rush during that period, or specific dlc.
>>563475140I'd have problems finding servers for it now
>>563475209It's a 15 year old game where the direct sequel was (eventually) an improvement in nearly every way.
>>5634759564 was inferior in pretty much every way though from maps to gunplay to not being as buggy with animations (I'm looking at you Zouzoujump) to all guns not sounding as good as their 3 counterparts (they all sound metallic or poppy rather than bassy). I definitely preferred Engineer being locked to carbines too since it meant PDWs and shotguns only filled the close range niche for the other classes and not for all ranges like carbines could.I also fail to even name 1 single map I liked in 4 while I definitely really liked Damavand PEAK among others. They never brought back any map from 4 until now with Golmud Railway. Paracel Storm was probably the best map in the game though but I didn't have any particular care for it.
>>563473764>that shoeI know you meant "show" but that "got dang arthritis" amirite? Btw, it was added in Fortnite and thus, the only reason why it's still relevant.Now go back to your battledad server like a good unc.
call of duty will end the series this year with mw4, right?
>>5634767944 had better balance in a lot of ways. Support in 3 was a dogshit class because he was stuck with LMGs which were dogshit. 4 massively buffed them to make him viable as anything other than the guy who sits in the back and gives ammo to the classes who do everything. 4 attachment balance was way better so people actually had different builds instead of the entire world running heavy barrel+foregrip because that gave you BF6 tier spread and no recoil.Also just a lot more of everything. Remember how 3 only had the standard grenade with no option to pick any others? Remember how most classes only had four gadgets? Engineer was the only one with more, and he was still really lacking compared to 4. Only two launchers, only one type of mine. They had different models for the SMAW/RPG and the Stinger/IGLA but they had identical stats. Remember how vehicles had way less options? Fucking 6 has more upgrades half the time, and 6 devs don't give a shit about vehicles (3 still wins on jets though because hahaha 6 jets).
>>563478636It'll be an $80+tip 140GB asset flip so no
>>563479126>Support in 3 was a dogshit class because he was stuck with LMGs which were dogshitI distinctly remember the M27 was actually pretty good but I wasn't a big Support player regardless. Them having lacklustre weapons isn't exactly a bad thing because the game was much more heavy on their role as an actual support: give ammo and lay down suppression (which I unironically miss since now combat has devolved into my laser vs your laser).>Remember how vehicles had way less options?This is unironically a good thing. Adding more specialisations to vehicles made them nigh unkillable at times and adding even more to the mix made them a nightmare. More isn't always better and vehicle-infantry balance suffered because of it.>4 attachment balance was way better so people actually had different builds instead of the entire world running heavy barrel+foregripValid but I pretty much ran the same thing on everything in 4 anyway.>3 only had the standard grenadeNot a bad thing>most classes only had four gadgetsAlso not a bad thing>Only two launchersNot a bad thing either because you were gonna run the RPG-7 99% of the time anyway like in 4 and 6.
It didn't have to be like this.
>>563480650Also I forgot to add but 4 completely ruined burst fire weapons due to the jamming mechanic which was one of the biggest mistakes DICE ever made.What retard legitimately thought it was a good idea to have your gun completely seize up if you just happened to click too fast?
>>563480881why did he do it?
>>563481306
>>563481716based
>>563471694the game was killed by hollywood accounting and accounting in general.a game that sells 30 million but still manages to be a financial catastrophe to the point they cant afford a non-skeleton crew dev team deserves to be studied in accounting schools
>>5634759564 had worse maps, worse voice overs, ucav, worse vehicles (transport helicopter got nerfed to absolute shit), started the god awful trend of gadget bloat that still plagues the franchise to this day, way worse netcode for a huge portion of games active life cycle, stupid battle pickup system, and generally was a step down from bf3 until DICE LA unfucked the game. in fact the reason why DICE LA was created was specifically to save the absolute train wreck that was bf4, which they did a good job at toward the end of the games release cycle. i'd take a bf3 remaster any day over a bf4 remaster.
>>563483794No catastrophe here, just EA correctly noticing that everyone had quit. The combination of a new CoD releasing and the game getting no fucking updates while the devs were on holiday meant 90% of players left. And no matter what they do, they're not coming back. So they could keep a full team around to make content for the remaining 10%, but why would they? It's obviously not necessary. The 10% stuck around during the dev holiday and are still sticking around now so it's clear they don't need good updates. From a business perspective paying extra devs is an extra cost with no actual benefit. EA are paying exactly as much as they need to and no more.BF6 is a financial success. It would have been more of a success if more players had stuck around to pay for microtransactions, but it's still a pretty big one. Lots of money from sales, lots more money from people buying the S1 battlepass. Excellent result from EA's perspective.
OOF
Maybe it's because I never got a battle pass but I still have no gun at lvl 50. Seeing ppl talk about the guns they've maxed, getting killed by ppl at lvl 300+, I'm like jeez how do you not get burnt out at all
>no one doing supermoto anymorewelp, guess i'm not finishing any of these objectivesbut it's ok, it's all cosmetics that no one will ever see because no one plays anymore
>>563489282same, my highest gun is level 40 (kord). there's since the game has open weapons there's no real reason to only use one gun
>>563489282I paid 70 bucks for this game, I will extract as much value as I can from this game.
you do not gain enough objective xp at all in normal gauntlet and no one is playing supermoto at all. they need to allow for starting without a full 8 people. highest i've gotten to is 5
>>563486597Its actually held at low 50s for a while. Is that the floor finally lol
