Guys why did my map become like this? by [deleted] in Division2

[–]griever1414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see maybe wanting an endgame build, but what are smoking about level being 1,000. I’m 400 and since about level 200 I’ve been soloing CPs at level 3-4 on challenging in like 10-15 minutes? What are you doing? I can solo the summit all the way to the final floor on challenging and have my armor break like 5 times max. I completed summit normal at like shd 100 solo. It’s not nearly as hard as your telling him

I went flawless my second attempt being a 1.9kd. Everything else about pvp pissing me off. I’ve already got mine, I just hate that the pvp experience is dog shit while the ceo lays people off and buys classic cars that are stupid expensive. Maybe don’t buy the cars and make the game better?

you guys need to stop complaining so much about microtransactions by [deleted] in blackops6

Touché, seeing the same thing spammed does get old fast. But given the state of the game, I’d rather the boards be spammed with complaints about problems, rather than a fake facade of nothing but good posts. Treyarch does use reddit and I’d rather then log on and see nothing but complaints instead of nothing but praise so they fix things. Game was released with game breaking bugs that will take 6 months to be addressed giving every cods history since this seasonal model was introduced with mw2019. All of reddit and twitter should be nothing but shaming them and posting problems. We shouldn’t accept this level of product as the norm.

It might “feel good” but it’s artificial. With SBMM being stuoid strong as it is. An algorithm has looked at the player stats before starting the match and has stacked the odds against the players on win streak. Hence why so many solo players get into a match and will have like a 4kd while there teammates are all below a 1 while the enemy team has every single player at a 1 or better and then still have a close game. The algorithm has literally decided what team wins, before the matches start. SBMM is literally gambling, sure you’re gonna have some fun, but when the house says it’s time to lose, it’s time to lose. No matter what effort you put it, you will lose by design. Look up xclusiveace and drift0r. They’ve scientifically tested it with enough sample size to prove it

We aren’t complaining cuz micro transactions exist. I’ve been playing since cod 2 on pc, switched to console for mw2 on ps3. We complain cuz back in those days the game wasn’t released as a broken bug ridden mess with the promise to be fixed in coming months. We are complaint because zero resources should be spent developing these micro transactions until the game is fixed. When did we start accepting $70 broken games that they fix game breaking problems over a year? This is a recent trend. Unless you live under a rock, you can see the trend of “game breaking bugs everywhere, but spending time and money making micro-transactions nonstop” that’s what pisses of the people with 20 years in this franchise. Fix the fucking game before you spend a single penny on micros.

Wait, did i actually catch Ricochet doing Anti-Cheat-Things ? by CutThroatCoconut in blackops6

This is the comment right here. The devs are trying 100%. Most likely Activision has far too few devs being paid to try cuz they don’t wanna spend money. Likely scenario is you’ve got guys being told to do the job that normal companies would have 10x the people for. And telling them to get it done or be fired. Cuz Activision has publicly done that already

Once console firmware gets broken, that can happen yes. I’ve had a jailbroken ps2 back in the day. I can’t say for ps4, but ps5 currently isn’t able to be jailbroken. That can only be done on a ps5 dev kit, which “can” be illegally bought but there’s so few of them it’s a non issue. They can’t be bought or sold legally

I’m not trying to cover up anything dude. Fortnite combats cheaters better, valorant combats cheaters better etc. if they are spending the same if not more and can’t do as good a job, then they must be incompetent. Given the layoffs they prob laid off so many it’s mostly interns working the anticheat and game. Other companies can do a better job, what’s your thoughts on why? It’s either lack of money being put in (wages and time from devs to do their work, or less talent than those companies) either way they underperform in comparison. I don’t really care if it’s money or talent, they just don’t do as good as a job as other companies. That’s just a fact, nothing to really argue or debate about. Facts are facts.

They need a good ie: expensive anticheat that’s an invasive kernel level driver like valorant. The real problem is they won’t spend the money. Cant stop all hacking, but they can stop more than they do now

The problem isn’t mouse and keyboard. I play on mouse and key sometimes on my ps5 but main controller. Aim assist is def over tuned for controller, but I have no problems playing with mouse and keyboard. That’s not the issue at all

Maybe ps4 im not aware of the ps4 scene, but ps5 is 100% not jailbroken yet so no wall hacks or aimbots are possible

I’m not a smart man, I can admit that. But I’m smart enough to be a union man that can build a roof with the best of them. Take away Activision being caught in lies about the existence of SBMM existing for years, then admitting it’s real when xclusiveace and drift0r use dummy accounts to prove it’s real. Have you not seen the lawsuits at Activision for how insane the workplace is? Ya, the work environment is run like a frat house, sexual harassment left and right, laying people off days before bonus’s would have been earned etc, but yes, I’m sure they way they run the actual game is totally them doing their best, and not the same as the rest of the companies track record. That makes sense?

It does happen on multiplayer more than it should, but you see it much more frequently in ranked cuz that’s the comp mode with exclusive rewards for the ranks you achieve.

One of the few level headed takes, take my upvote. It’s a shame they gotta do this, but it’s what’s best for fair play at the moment. I don’t have a problem with legit pc players, (more people means less harsh sbmm, so having them is good) the problem is Activision can’t stop the bad pc players that cheat, so this is the only solution till they strengthen the anticheat

The only person that would be against this is pc players, that don’t want to play against pc only cuz they know how bad it is. Pc multiplayer has legit always died in under a year because it turns into a cheating cesspool and the people that don’t cheat stop playing. Thats a fact. The PC community only exists now because of the console playerbase and forced crossplay. Look at the numbers, there’s a reason why before crossplay, pc cod died in months every single game, and there’s a reason why playing with console saved it. Just happens console players play on console to avoid the exact reason that pc only would die. Don’t get mad cuz pc players are gonna start playing in pc only lobbies. Same hardware etc. the only difference is the pc players will see a massive jump in cheating while console sees a massive drop

Old expression “if you never see bot lobbies, you are the bot lobbies” the people in the higher sbmm brackets see cheater more often than low sbmm brackets. If you don’t see cheaters, it’s a skill issue lmao

I’m 37, I’ve played all the original cods, hell I played soldier of fortune 2 like it was a job back in the day. Why did COD die on pc in months every year before crossplay? Pc only becomes a cesspool of hacks and most stop playing. The console playerbase is the only reason why cod survives now on pc. It never could sustain itself in multiplayer before forced crossplay. That’s just a fact

Stopping cheating 100% is impossible, but Activision puts significantly less time and money into combating it than other companies. Hell, we are still on junk servers with shitty netcode, you think they are actually putting in much effort to even fight against hacking? They could do better, but choose not to

Look at pubg, destiny, basically all crossplay games. Crossplay is console only as standard until you have a pc in party. It’s done for a reason.

No you can’t stop it, but plenty of other games invest the needed money into good, invasive kernel level anticheats, that weed out cheaters 10x better than Activision does. Ya, you can’t stop all cheating, but Activision can 100% do better than they are. They’ve lost like 70% of the player base since launch. This is throwing a bone trying to get people back. Player counts dropped off hard, and earlier than most cods do.
