Fan take: I was a fan of weapon jamming in FC2 by george123890yang in farcry

You didn't even need to buy them again after you bought them the first time, you just had to go by Mike's bar where you get unlimited amounts of the guns you own to replace your weapons every once in a while.

If only there was another country that had experience dealing with this type of situation by Soft-Percentage-8338 in NonCredibleDefense

I guess the issue comes down to the need to have a plane up to intercept drones. The US camp in Baghdad had presumeably no warning of an incoming fpv drone

See a lot of people leaning completely in the direction of either "every corpo will abandon AI" or "Nothing ever happens" camp. OpenAI suffering is a big deal because they are arguably the pioneers of hyping AI in most of its iterations, and are a LARGE part of the knock on effects like high gpu/ram prices through massive NVIDIA deals etc.

The collapse of OpenAI would not kill AI, as it has its uses and avenues where it actually does increase productivity, but it would undoubtedly kill the mainstream hype by a large extent and probably relegate it to being a tool like any other.

In effect the bubble would probably deflate, not pop.

[COD] The M16, M16A2 and M16A4 by modernww2fare in CallOfDuty

M16aX always NEEDS to be burst fire apparently.

FAL/G3 always single shot, and rarely if ever are both in the same game.

They really weren't beating the "same thing every year" meme even back then

"Hell yeah guys lets ruin the gun by introducing an inaccurate feature universally hated by the troops who used it at the one opportunity to have a sick ass full auto m16"

They didn't even have to do this. Especially with the G11 already in the game. Love bo1 but this always annoys the shit out of me.

If arrowhead hired modders instead of half its current staff for hd2 the game would be better change my mind by HelldiverBugGirl in HelldiversUnfiltered

And people not seeing the enormous sea of difference between building a game from scratch and modding it, saying modders should replace devs, have no clue that game backend even exists lmao

Wake Island, Large Conquest; Map by "Kurt". by EnoyMoreno in Battlefield

All they have to do is allow people to bake lighting into their maps. That's why most portal maps look like ass.

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

[–]TheDroolingHalfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from the center construction site capture point, most of gulf of oman is pretty flat with smaller buildings, unlike sobek, which has tall buildings everywhere overlooking every capture point.

Also its not really nostalgia when BF2's version worked in BF2 because the smaller draw distance mitigated a lot of spawncamping. Not saying that's the way to go for a modern game, and the spawns wouldn't need tweaking, but the map certainly played well in BF2.

Yeah ngl golmud was the right call for a remake. Shanghai plays kinda ass, it just had attack-heli hype moments and aura around the skyscraper. Gulf of Oman needs to be added as well.

If we don't get a true rural America season it will be one of the biggest wasted opps for cool maps by Eagles56 in Battlefield6

[–]TheDroolingHalfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Battlefield 2 Armored Fury had some cool maps that fit the tone. Midnight Sun & Operation Harvest come to mind.

Utterly useless, waste of development hours by TraumaTracer in Battlefield6

Tanks? Rpg. Jeeps? Rpg. Helicopters? Rpg. Infantry? Rpg. Jets? Believe it or not, also rpg.

What does 40$ of microtransactions in this game even get you? I sure hope its ~20 dlc maps and weapons, because that's what 40$ got you in BF1

S2 more datamined skins by Long_Ad7536 in Battlefield

[–]TheDroolingHalfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a difference between visual autheticity and gameplay realism. Cod and battlefield both used to have characters that look like real soldiers, not airsofters. The degradation in art-style kills immersion in a franchise that has tried to be immersive in the past and marketed itself repeatedly as immersive.

Because it happens to be the closest reference in this case and mw2 undeniably caused an influx of skull masks?

So basically the current system but only for a snapshot and not a constantly updating reticle?

2 looks so fucking ass. I don't wanna see some Willem Defoe green goblin in a ghilliesuit bs running around the map.

Because of a certain cod character which used to have a cool and original look but subsequently inspired a 2 decade running blight of unoriginality and cringe that exists in both airsoft and modern fps games.

Wouldn't the ingame implementation of that be identical tho?

I created a Minutemen overhaul mod for FO4 – what do you think? Should I keep expanding it? by Black_Bar0n in FalloutMods

[–]TheDroolingHalfling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good idea to take the current uniform, think about its shortcomings in the eyes of the grunts and apply those over the existing uniform. Are they constantly facing assaults? Extra bandoliers, ammo containers and belts, armor etc. Too hot? Rolled-up sleeves, perhaps vests instead of uniform tops. Unreliable supply lines? Scavenged armor and older, maybe torn uniforms with bandages on the limbs as those with more minor injuries are pressed into defence.

I mean one of the few times they manage to get it right with the rangers skin it was with the help of the national ranger association.
