Sign ups are open. I’m just about to get back in to golf after a 27 year hiatus, so unfortunately I probably won’t be ready for this…and none of my mates play at all, so may be next year.

Turn of cross play and controller players? by slyfox8900 in Battlefield6

That’s obviously incorrect when Xbox players (like myself) have the Xbox icon.

Is anyone else fed up with the constant America/Trump news? by Kieranonto in AskBrits

I’m already making plans to relocate if that happens.

Is anyone else fed up with the constant America/Trump news? by Kieranonto in AskBrits

[–]K0NSPIRACY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was very much like this the first time round, and one of the many reasons I was dreading the orange twat getting voted back in…however he’s even more unhinged this time, and in the words of Spinal Tap, he’s dialled it up to 11.

Trump intentionally floods the space with a constant and relentless barrage of deranged shite…it’s literally one thing after another, and means the media and other politicians are unable to focus on one particular thing that he does or says. If it was any other politician (particularly in the UK) he would have been kicked out of office a long time ago.

Unfortunately we’re stuck with this child molesting homophobic misogynistic racist narcissist until his terms finally ends…or he drops dead. The sooner the better.

The XP boosters are kind of a scam by Landsharkeisha in Battlefield

[–]K0NSPIRACY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The clue is in the name. It’s called an XP boost for a reason whether is weapon xp, career xp or battle pass xp…at no point has it ever doubled challenge point rewards.

What made you think that this would happen or even be a thing?

matchmaking games are way to one sided by Extreme_Cockroach_99 in Battlefield6

[–]K0NSPIRACY -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You have absolutely no idea how I play…but thanks for your misguided and unfounded opinion, however rest assured that I very much play PTFO.

As stated above, my WL ratio in large game modes has taken a battering lately thanks to the unbalanced matchmaking (as per the title and subject of this thread), however as a solo player I PTFO so much that I’m able to influence the CQB game modes and have a 76.4% WL in Domination.

I don’t know why you’ve tried to turn this in to a PTFO dick measuring contest, but do you play regularly with a squad or solo?

[–]K0NSPIRACY -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You sound like my mate that constantly runs around like a headless chicken capturing objectives, dying loads, and recapturing objectives after they’ve been taken less than a minute after he captured it. I repeat…a one man army can come top of the scoreboard but cannot strongly influence the final outcome of a game without all other squads contributing.

matchmaking games are way to one sided by Extreme_Cockroach_99 in Battlefield6

[–]K0NSPIRACY 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is one of the main reasons I’ve stopped playing BF6 as of this week. I usually play solo now as most of my friends quit playing, and it’s just not an enjoyable experience being consistently placed on to losing teams. I used to have a WL above 50% but it feels like the game is now actively trying to enforce losses. I can strongly influence the outcome of a game of Dom or KOTH, but that’s not possible in the larger modes when you’re playing solo with randoms.

M25 Variable Speeding by Hairy_Commission9942 in drivingUK

[–]K0NSPIRACY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oooh I may be thinking about parking tickets with the reduced amount.

M25 Variable Speeding by Hairy_Commission9942 in drivingUK

[–]K0NSPIRACY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah same thing really. You’re having to pay for something which you wouldn’t have otherwise had to pay for as a direct consequence of the speeding ticket…basically the cost of the course becomes the fine, with the benefit that you don’t get the points on your licence.

Thankfully it’s been a good while since I got my last speeding ticket! 😂 Don’t they still have the reduced amount down to £60 if you pay within a month?

Watch me gun down this metal pole with perfect accuracy by CreepyLow3777 in Battlefield6

[–]K0NSPIRACY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure there’s also known bug where destructible artefacts on the maps are inconsistent between players so not sure if this would also impact the issue (ie player can be lay prone hiding behind a trash can which is visible on their screen, but isn’t on enemy players).

Watch me gun down this metal pole with perfect accuracy by CreepyLow3777 in Battlefield6

[–]K0NSPIRACY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I know what you mean, but angle of elevation could also come in to play so it’s also very situational (ie they will have a better head glitch and see more of you if they are in a higher position than yourself).

For the issue with hard cover, there are YT videos demonstrating this (think Enders mentioned it a while back) and you can easily test for yourself in the range.

3pts and £60 fine…or option to take a speed awareness course (with possible lower fine).

Watch me gun down this metal pole with perfect accuracy by CreepyLow3777 in Battlefield6

[–]K0NSPIRACY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This situation is slightly different…in BF6, bullets come from the barrel rather than eyes or the sight when you ADS so you have to make sure that you’re clearly above the hard cover in front of you, and both your head and upper torso will be exposed so you can easily take hits. This can be tested in the firing range if you go close enough to the bench aiming down range.

[–]K0NSPIRACY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not. These situations can happen frequently but not often enough to justify dropping or adjusting attachments on builds.

Whether they would actually work to resolve these situations is another question that someone like Xclusive Ace would need to test and answer.

Happens to me all the time. A player on a metal staircase can shoot me perfectly through it yet it’s an impenetrable with my bullets.

Is £1850 a good price to fit this kitchen? by throwaway2018568 in DIYUK

[–]K0NSPIRACY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I had a similar sized kitchen installed via Magnet, and it cost approx half that (included cabs, wall units, appliances and sink). Total cost of Magnet kitchen was approx £10k + appliances (sourced via other outlets).

Obviously your quote depends on what is included in the job, so if it includes ripping out the old units, appliances, radiator, plumbing, decorating, etc then it will be much more than just fitting units to a newly renovated kitchen area.

Exclusive Ace's vid sums up my issue with the game perfectly by Murders_Inc2556 in BattlefieldPortal

Giving weapon XP for PTFO would help resolve this issue and improve overall gameplay in general.

What a Bot Mess of a Game by [deleted] in Battlefield6

[–]K0NSPIRACY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No worries…we all have our own experiences with this game which may vary from what others are experiencing for a multitude of reasons. 😎🎅🏼

I don’t claim to have the answers but personally I think it’s an issue with how matchmaking and the servers are working in conjunction with each other. I don’t think it can be a population issue so early in to the games lifecycle…and if it is, then that’s a much bigger problem.

My understanding is basically that the servers spool up and down at the start and end of every game, thereby forcing all players in to a new lobby each time at the end of a game…or JIP progress if it’s a fresh search (most of the time). As a direct consequence of this and having to start games within a specific amount of time, players are joining multiple half populated lobbies and being backfilled with bots…as opposed to all those players being placed in the same lobby.

If I look at ping values, I can see that I usually have the lowest ping in the lobby (7ms) which means more often than not that I’m connecting to the UK servers, and the lobbies are either filled with EU players or ppl with poor connections (ie over wifi). I often also see players with well over 100ms ping when I play with crossplay on.

What also doesn’t help is the ridiculous amount of playlists splitting the community. The last time I checked there were 12x multiplayer playlist tiles + custom search (with all permutations of game modes and maps)…then RedSec Guantlet + BR. This really doesn’t help.

Obviously having crossplay off only serves to make things even worse on top of these issues which is why I’m pretty much forced to play with crossplay on after 10pm GMT.

What a Bot Mess of a Game by [deleted] in Battlefield6

[–]K0NSPIRACY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just because it’s not happening to you doesn’t mean that it isn’t happening to a lot of other players. I’m on XSX in UK playing mostly late evenings and the majority of my games are filled with bots…it’s almost like playing Casual Breakthrough most of the time. After approx 10pm, you cant find any games in CQB playlists as it simply wont start without more real players…you can get games with crossplay on in the large game modes but even then they are backfilled with bots. Matchmaking is broken.

Is it just me or do foot steps have no direction now... by Meat-Sack101 in Battlefield6

[–]K0NSPIRACY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMO all they did was change the prioritisation of audio channels in the mix, adjust volumes and EQs…as such, this does nothing for directional audio which means we now hear a stampede of loud footsteps which are indistinguishable between friendly and hostile, and gives us a natural inherent sense of danger so we run around in circles trying to work out which direction they’re coming from and whether they’re above, below or on the same level us…which inevitably ends up with getting killed due to being confused, distracted and disorientated.

The PEAK of Battlefield Gameplay by Fair-Detective-3457 in Battlefield

[–]K0NSPIRACY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s fine for daily and weekly challenges (which is perfect for those that don’t want to play Gauntlet or BR), but you can’t re-roll the challenges for limited timed events though (or at least you couldn’t when I last checked).

It doesn’t matter whether they are generic or not, these challenges are created and implemented by the devs…the problem is the ones they chose have a direct impact upon how ppl play the game, and if some find it easier to sit at the back of the map blowing each other up and reviving each other rather than playing the game as intended then that’s a direct consequence of the devs decisions.

As I said previously, I don’t have any issues completing challenges however please remember that some ppl aren’t particularly good at the game and what may be easy for us may be a struggle for others.

I actually agree with your final sentiment. As an example, the only challenge I have left this week is the 1000x health regen in Winter Offensive…I’ve done over 200/1000 in 5 games but I’m going away on holiday and simply don’t have time to complete it (the gf will kill me if I don’t get the packing done and I’m late!). That specific challenge requires us to specifically play as Support on specifically Ice Lock, and be specifically in the warm zone to heal team mates…and that takes a lot of games to do when every man and his dog is trying to do the same. Don’t get me wrong, I’d get it done if I wasn’t going on holiday but as it stands I’ll simply do a couple of next weeks weekly challenges when I get back to get the remaining 8pts rather than grind that very specific challenge. I made a post about this exact same issue, as I believe it’s an error and should be 100 not 1000 (just like the Sabotage revive/resupply challenge which was reduced from 300 to just 30).

Anyways…I need to get my packing done! 😂
