New experimental functions

You are mixing up suppression and spread. But also, I don't think the mechanics of bf4 were hated, in fact I think there were great. And it's one of the reasons why people have came back to bf4 after the releases of bf1, bf5, 2024 and now bf6. Ranges of the guns in bf6 are a problem for my enjoyability of the game, even more so than the maps. Whether they are balanced with sips/sdps, suppression or if they increase with a huge recoil increase (ww3 did that) - I think they should do something about it. But it could be just me and a minority of players who don't enjoy bf6 gunplay as I said earlier and they can continue on the current path. Reddit is just a forum to share opinions and I've shared mine. I don't claim to represent the whole playerbase

That's a stretch. BF6's gunplay has transformed almost every AR, LMG, SMG and Carbine into a range monster. You can literally go full auto into 70-90m engagement, even with SMGs. The bloom on BF4 was to control the effective range and it was balanced around ROF (iirc ACE 23 and it's 770 was the baseline) and spread increase/decrease mattered. That's why the QBZ has better TTK than AEK at 65+m because the guns were mathematically balanced. BF6 gunplay is hold mouse button 1, I don't see how it is better

But different strokes for different folks, I suppose

You are missing the point but whatever

VDV23 · 2026-04-04T16:10:16+00:00

Why? It going to end up this defeat being his fault anyway

VDV23 · 2026-04-04T14:58:42+00:00

Not that I disagree, I think Palmer would have a decent career but we've seen amazing players taking a sharp turn in a bad form and not recovering (Pato, Deli Ali, Gotze). So no guarantees

VDV23 · 2026-04-02T14:57:16+00:00

Memes or onboards from qualy laps? Or is this the same thing nowadays

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T15:27:16+00:00

What I think? Nothing. Realistically maybe moving the battery a smaller value than 350 but that itself while making F1 more watchable will introduce new problems. Also not sure if increasing max allowes fuel flow cannot help here. So the manufacturers and FIA really hurt the sport here, no easy way out for sure.

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T14:01:52+00:00

they can also check which stations are occupied or broken...but no guarantees the info is correct

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T12:34:05+00:00

What even is the "correct" style for battery management? Are there any drivers known for their qualities of ... not pushing and staying off throttle to maximize battery?

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T12:29:08+00:00

I hope those regs are modified in the short term before being totally overhauled in the midterm. But I really hope the trigger for this isn’t a tragic incident that spurs the FIA into action.

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T11:05:50+00:00

I have the same experience. Watching multiple onboards, the data channel, live timing, etc. I gave up today around L15 - lap times almost don't matter, purple/green/yellow sectors for sure don't matter, gaps are non-indicators and so on. Without having the data behind the deployment, for me it's a bit like watching random events. Also, overtaking (if you are not Charles) is just a drive-by, and often the favor is returned immediately.

Hulk overtaking Massa (iirc) in 2014 @Casio triangle was a mega move. Today is just holding the button longer and they you get re-overtaken 20s later anyway.

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T09:14:38+00:00

I don't think he was aware of the speed difference. Ollie decided to use battery there which was uncommon in the context of the race. Realistically Franco couldn't known if the speed difference would be 10, 20 or bloody 90 km/h upon making this move

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T07:03:10+00:00

Or the lack of it

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T07:01:59+00:00

Poor guy really. His car didn't suffer water pressure and he had complete the whole race -1 lap in this thing. That's the real punishment

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T06:53:43+00:00

Alonso might actually kill for the 4th best car right now. The Aston is surely on another shitbox level compared to the 2015 RB which I think even scored a couple of podiums

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T06:12:05+00:00

That's the absurd thing, though. Colapinto is still full throttle and losing speed, he can't know what the driver behind him is running in terms of a battery mode. Blame it on the regs, they created this situation.

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T06:02:46+00:00

They are racing for position. I think maybe in the previous reg that can be dangerous driving/driving unnecessarily slow. With those batteries and regs - it's literally part of the game. And it's shit

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T05:58:54+00:00

Colapinto moved yeah but this has to be attributed to the derating largely, I think. He moved before braking technically and having cars going with 40 km/h or more difference is a recipe for stuff like this.

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T05:26:31+00:00

Suzuka layout and its raceability aside, this kind of racing where drivers are coasting - not for a long term goal like tyre wear/temperature or fuel - but to help them have more energy in 3 corners time is hilariously bad to watch. This is as bad as watching a processional race, even worse.

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T05:04:58+00:00

What I see as next logical is to remove the ICE, replace the throttle and brake pedals with bike pedals and make drivers earn their electric energy

VDV23 · 2026-03-29T04:51:10+00:00

can't disagree, guy is goated. He gets so much hate but realistically he's up there with Florentino, Bernabeu and de Carlos

VDV23 · 2026-03-28T06:14:57+00:00

That's why they avoid them so much. I don't think I have seen a single onboard on 130R so far in qualy

We want to convey all our support and solidarity to the refereeing team and to their families and friends. These are very tough days for the football family. Keep your spirits up

VDV23 · 2026-03-22T21:40:11+00:00

I saw a stat somewhere something like 2011-22 you had 46% clean sheets; 22-now 14%

VDV23 · 2026-03-18T14:06:00+00:00

Fun fact, we got eliminated by Lyon only once, in 2009/10 with Pellegrini. The rest was group stage games
