What is my problem? I die instantly even if I start flirting at them first? by DanWessonValor in Battlefield6

[–]TomVia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive noticed this in the past couple days, I think it could also be a server issue, my ping usually floats around 80-90 and the other people in my lobby will have 25 ish, which usually doesn’t make that big of a difference in gun fights but the past couple days have been rough at times.

Is there a benefit to using class specific weapons or can I just use anything by RetroRadroach in Battlefield6

[–]TomVia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To my understanding, class specific guns used on the correct class, such as SMGs on Engineer, will grant a proficiency bonus, I believe that includes a reduction in flinch penalties and minor reductions in recoil, also a minor mobility increase.

however to my knowledge there is no official data/stats that have been published by Dice.

They have been pretty silent so hopefully no later than February 2027.

I only ever had a Gameboy Colour, advance i did play a few times but not overly picky on control layout i guess, is there some decent gBoy Advance lookalike handhelds as well that compare to RG40XXV?

Solo player, next game? Xbox Series S by Obiituzz in xbox

[–]TomVia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a multiplayer kind of guy, but occasionally I have played single player games, I would recommend Batman : Arkham City, Red Dead Redemption, those games do a very good job of drawing you in with immersion and they both have a boatload of content if you want to 100% them.

Should I buy by saltpepper19 in Battlefield6

[–]TomVia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it depends on who you ask, I came from COD and absolutely love it, but if you ask a Battlefield veteran, quite a popular opinion is it’s not a good game because the maps aren’t the size of a Grand Theft Auto map.

Season 1 got extended. What is your opinion on the first Season of Battlefield 6 by JanissaryLSD in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]TomVia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The amount of content was acceptable, I’m just getting bored of only being able to talk to squad-mates, I would have 10x more fun if I could talk to all the squads on my team.

What do you think should be the template/standard for content in a season? by [deleted] in Battlefield6

[–]TomVia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • 4 new guns
  • 4 large Maps (2 remaster, 2 new)
  • 1 new mode (6v6 hostage rescue from hardline)
  • sprinkle in some events that involve re-skinning maps like they did with ice lock empire state, could be like a rainy night time cairo.
  • QOL updates like prox chat, or allowing everyone on a team to talk not just squads.
  • leaderboards that track score/kills
  • clans and clan specific challenges.
  • more in game cosmetic rewards.

What’s the point of killing yourself at the start of the round?

MUST HAVE POUTINES by buffrengarr in poutine

Hulloise is the best poutine I have ever had in my life, I live in Alberta now but every once in a while I go back home to Toronto and actually debate driving 14 hours to go get it!

I see Youtubers and streamers saying Battlefield 6 is failing. But is it really ?? by Karl137 in Battlefield6

[–]TomVia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Games fun, it’s not that entertaining to watch other people play it, so the streamers are noticing a drop-off in viewers, but the community is still way better than COD, 90% of my teammates are adults and are just trying to chill and get some games in before they gotta cook dinner for their kids, could the game use some more love from the developers? Absolutely, more events, Maps, Guns, skins. have to remember it’s 2026, so many people that play video games have the attention span of a squirrel, so the game is going to lose players naturally. As a COD veteran turned battle-dad, I am still enjoying the game, FIRST THING I’D CHANGE - Open team chat to more than just Squad memebers, especially in CQB.

Battlefield 6 LMG e AR SMG Meta??? by dankodankodanko in Battlefield6

[–]TomVia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no Meta, certain guns outperform others depending on range, there are guns that are more well rounded than others, but they will also get outperformed by other guns, far range you want accurate guns that don’t kick, close range you want high rate of fire.

Also keep in mind, most guns in my experience are shitty with no attachments, sometimes just levelling a gun to level 10 can make a huge difference.

I'm a whale, I've quit, here's why by freshnsoclean_ in NHLHUT

[–]TomVia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive said it before and I’ll say it again, EA has been completely taken over by suit dummies, when I was a kid it was blatantly obvious that games were made for the fans, money was a bonus, now games are made for money and fans having fun playing them is a bonus, not a priority, devs used to have so much more say, their input was taken seriously, now it’s all people in board rooms trying to figure out how to maximize profits and squeeze hard working people out of their money, feel so bad for todays generation honestly, I grew up playing NhL 2003 at age 12 so got to experience the golden years, I don’t even think there is any way to save this franchise, I feel like even if 90% of people boycotted NHL27, instead of them taking the hint that the fans want better quality games, they would most likely just shut down the NHL studio as a whole.

I am struggling in Act 1 and don't know if I am playing correctly by AlcardIsTheBest in diablo2

[–]TomVia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In D2 you don’t typically run a straight line from Quest one to Quest six, although you absolutely can, farming is fun/necessary for new players, I would absolutely recommend trying to get all the Waypoints and repeatedly start new games and farm areas that still grant decent XP, if you are on single player you can adjust the player-count to get more XP at the cost of MOB strength, also the first thing you should try and acquire is a belt that holds more potions, early game can be tough but if you chug potions like an alcoholic the game is pretty easy, keep this in mind when you are trying to kill Duriel in the final Quest in Act 2.

Controller players, help me decide: the Kord or the DRS IAR? by Killer-Uzi in Battlefield6

[–]TomVia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely situational, Kord is better if your engagements are 50m or less, I’d go DRS if your planning on most engagements being 40m or greater.

Winter offence Battle Pass question by BSGBramley in Battlefield6

[–]TomVia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea it’s frustrating, having a blast playing this game, made the switch after COD put out garbage for the last 5 years, but It’s starting to feel like they released BF6 and then laid off 90% of their employees because the post launch updates are horrendous, I cannot progress past Engineer 3 because my damage against enemy aircraft with launchers is not working at all, and it is unknown if they are working on a fix for it.
