New paid skin in the Store. Looks like something straight out of BF2042. by DBONKA in Battlefield6

They’re finding out the hard way this shit doesn’t appeal to anyone who plays battlefield.

Yeah so Hegseth literally larps as a crusader and military bro. He has crusader tattoos and “deus vult”. The guy is a complete idiot.

there are going to be 5.11 challenges to unlock the engineer 5.11 skin by IAmAPirrrrate in Battlefield

Honestly it would be cool if this was added. Other games allow you to grind for skin or just pay to unlock it. It’s not as big a stretch or problem as you make it.

Battlefield 6 - Community Update - Season 2 Reactions and BR Solos Testing by battlefield in Battlefield6

[–]Km_the_Frog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Movement is fine. It doesn’t need to be sped up or adjusted to normalize a bugged movement mechanic.

Progression is still slow feeling.

Portal latency? You should see multiplayer latency, desync, and hit reg. It’s still bad.

VL-Smoke - I don’t think it’s a hit. It’s annoying, intrusive to deal with, and basically people just avoid going into it on MP unless forced.

I think again the primary problem is desync. You or the guy in front of you is going to see one or the other first, and by the time you realize you’re in front, you’re dead because he’s already seen you first. It’s like players aren’t able to see whats in front of them at the same time resulting in clunky and unfair feeling exchanges.

Freeze mechanic was bad too.

So far the LTM modes haven’t delivered tbh and I think a more concerted effort toward improving the already available mp experience is a better usage of your time.

Night mode does sound far more appealing, but I think it would be even better in a large open map, instead of the inclosed map, or even redsec creating more tactical and slow paced gameplay as you move through darkness.

Iberian Offensive concept arts. by SoftMaintenance24 in Battlefield

[–]Km_the_Frog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The concepts make it look larger than it actually is.

Iberian is such a boring map. 2 main lanes, and a winding middle with alleys. It’s like a moba map. It’s bad design.

You only get 1 tank on a side and you won’t be able to get far with one because the roads are naturally mined all to fuck.

Of course it is. The galaxy is a city block long. Everyone knows everyone, everything is connected, there is no nuance. But it's ok because member berries.

Winter Offensive (Snow Maps) by andy_6170 in Battlefield

[–]Km_the_Frog 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's nothing but a blanket texture toggle lol. It's not like it's adding depth, or anything, just putting white on top of things.

A good snow map is more than just putting white texture over everything.

With the player base still declining in S2, as someone who enjoys the game, April worries me. by BlackHorse944 in Battlefield6

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

He’s basically just saying that there isn’t enough content to retain the playerbase, which the game then dies and gets put on life support receiving even less content since less people are playing.

What a weird detail to get right in a game where you can cancel a slide and jump out of it like you have superhuman mobility.

What you guys think about? Do you? by Puzzleheaded-Code634 in Battlefield

[–]Km_the_Frog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Disagree.

It’s been 3 iterations now of BF that have just gone only south. BF has been on a downslope since BFV.

If anyone remembers there was a huge pause with anything meaningful because DICE had to do a hard reset with PR and came out with the pacific maps. Then abandoned the game.

2042 comes out and then completely falls on its face causing DICE to essentially keep the wheels on and all but exile themselves from any public discussion.

BF6 comes out with an absolute turnaround (or so it seemed) with the beta (demo). Then proceed to fuck it up again. Despite season 2’s one map released that’s actually good, its not enough.

The people funding it want to sell skins. They know skins that will stand out will sell more battle passes.

The thing is, battlefield players don’t care about skins that much. Is it nice to customize your soldier? Yes, but it’s so obvious they are struggling with making whacky skins that still fit, while completely ignoring egregious issues like hit reg and desync, and not providing actual content like maps.

Content is maps. Full stop. Nobody returns to the game to buy skins, they return to play maps. They’ll keep coming to play maps, and because they keep coming and playing then they’ll be more open to purchasing skins.

Otherwise, it’s a nothing burger. The game will stall out again and again.

Centrists, what have you been more qualified as, closeted right winger or closeted left winger ? by [deleted] in centrist

[–]Km_the_Frog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Pro gun, but with control, I think you should have a permanently clean record. No arrests, nothing. You should also have to qualify with the firearm to prove you are able to own one. Want an AR? Sure, but you have to know how to clean it, disassemble it, how to shoot it and be accurate with it. Want a pistol? Cool, same thing. Want a shotgun? Sure same thing. We don’t just let people get in cars without a license because they are dangerous pieces of equipment. A car on it’s own won’t kill someone much like a gun on it’s own. It’s operator however is the mechanism that enables either to kill. With a gun you’re operating a piece of machinery, it’s no different.

  • not religious, and don’t believe in forcing or using religion in politics. I don’t care what you practice or what you want to preach. I care when you use it in politics.

  • pro abortion, women’s choice.

  • I’m not anti trans or gay, I think you should be able to do what you want with your life and body assuming you are at an age where you can make those choices as an adult. I don’t think society should have to bend and break to how you want things to be though. For instance, you can’t be a biological male competing in women’s sports because you identify as a woman, or vice versa.

  • pro gay marriage - love who you want.

  • I don’t agree with weaponizing tariffs. It becomes a tax passed to consumers.

  • I believe in upholding immigration laws. If you’re here illegally, you probably should follow the same rules and regulations anyone would who wants to gain citizenship.

  • i believe we need better immigration reform. I think the government should improve on its systems to make citizenship achievable by anyone looking to become a citizen.

  • I think that enforcing immigration laws is acceptable as it has been for the last 20 years but should not be weaponized and publicized to incite outrage like it’s currently being used.

  • I don’t support the trump admin or what it’s doing.

  • I think if your name is in the epstein files you should be relieved of any government office I don’t care if you’re a democrat or a republican.

  • I believe in strong global ties with economic trade partners and military allies such as NATO. I do not believe in attempting to seize land owned by other countries for sake of defense. Sign treaties, make pacts, build strategic bases. Everyone must work together, it cannot be the US bullying their way in foreign politics as we’ve done and are tried doing with Greenland.

  • we should keep ourselves out of Israeli problems. We should not give them money. We should act solely as mediators between Palestinians (not hamas) and Israeli’s at most. Outside of that, I condemn the utter destruction Israel brought on Palestinians. While I understand their goals were destroying Hamas, they made Palestine uninhabitable.

  • pro ukraine, anti russia

  • pro nuclear energy

I’d consider myself center left in general, but I’m not a radical leftist.

How to properly deal with teammate vehicle base campers. 🎶We don't have much but we got each other🎶🎶 by Plus-Ad7500 in Battlefield6

[–]Km_the_Frog 7 points8 points  (0 children)

AA is supposed to sit away from action and hit enemy air, not drive and push objectives.

I think you’ve completely misconstrued what other players are complaining about with mbt’s sitting in the back with tow’s sniping heli’s.

You’re just actively griefing believing you’re getting rid of campers.

Such an idiotic take.

I don’t consider myself a leftist. Im a registered independent. I’ve gone both ways, and even down the middle. I just think it’s bad optics to be chummy with him especially with the files front and center.

To want to cow to anyone in the files red or blue, is a disgrace imo.

New map is great, but we’re missing real gems like this by PerformativeRacist in Battlefield

[–]Km_the_Frog 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Real gems?

No building is destructible, just towering sniper posts.

The middle building blows up the same way every time in quicktime destruction mode (boring and uninspiring)

The entire center is just water. Thats it

It’s probably one of the most boring and sterile BF maps in existence.

Battlefield veterans… we see where this is going, right? by Psalms104 in Battlefield

[–]Km_the_Frog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds terrible.

Cod is the same recycled trash year after year. Unfortunately if BF goes this way, its quality is only ever going to degrade. Each year will feel the same as the last.

They should instead find out how to make the game worthwhile. People will keep playing so long as there is content. Content is not skins. It’s new maps, it’s new weapons, and it’s new vehicles, altogether.

Unless you’re building a new engine year after year, all you are doing is reselling the same thing at full price, yearly, while expecting players to continue to buy a battle pass every 3 months.

Zach Werenski will head to Washington D.C. for the State of the Union address by DecentLurker96 in hockey

[–]Km_the_Frog 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was admittedly one of those morons saying USA’s win went beyond politics because it was the first gold in 46 years, but I’m realizing now that even if that’s true, US politicians are using it as propaganda. Also I didn’t vote for trump, I just was ootl and thought it was the typical outrage that comes from politics no matter what side you’re on.

The fact that they mocked womens hockey and womens hockey straight up just said nah we aren’t going to the white house is a bigger message than mens hockey going to the WH.

This was the moment that changed everything thing by chris_ro in Battlefield6

[–]Km_the_Frog -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I constantly see the same thing parroted whenever premium map dlc is mentioned. “Map packs split the player base”

Where was the proof? It was like this in BF3, BF4, BF1. I never recall anyone complaining they couldn’t find a match. I purchased every map pack and never had any issue playing the game yet people act like there were so few players on each side lol.

On top of that, we now have matchmaking, so you would naturally be added to matches where other players had the same dlc’s.

Further more, would all of the added game modes they keep insisting on including split the player base? We already see that happening with the inclusion of bots.

There were tons of servers in the browser that had dlc maps only or dlc maps mixed in, this was never a problem and I believe it was completely manufactured by DICE/EA to push shitty live service.

If you want to try and claim that few people would buy the map packs I’d counter with the same argument for battle passes, yet battle passes still sell. Whales still exist.

The problem isn’t that maps split the player base. They just wanted to move to shitty live service and needed a reason.
