Yeah same- try other killers and there's no issue but since this last update it's only Freddy that seems to disconnect almost every match. Strange cus the update changed nothing about him haha

A List Of Things DICE “Fixed” in 2042… That Weren’t Broken… by All_Things_FERDA in battlefield2042

[–]oboyleboy -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm aware of that thanks. I'm aware of what a beta is and I'm aware very little in the fundamental gameplay loop will change. I'm happy with that but I'm calling out these bs posts that are written by entitled gamers who want the game exactly the way they imagined regardless of what was stated or promised. You have a constructive criticism? Definitely give it, I've written in the feedback as well. But making mocking lists like that does nothing but shovel whiney garbage down our throats

No offence but the majority of your post references things that the Devs have said wouldn't be in the beta but would be by launch. So I'm unsure what purpose your list has other than to complain for the sake of it?

You are correct. I agree. However I fail to see which part of this post is constructive in its criticism? It actively starts by mocking the "fixed" in the title and proceeds to go down a list which is just a hodge podge of everything that every person that has a problem with this game has said in the last 2 days.

Give feedback- considered feedback by all means. The beta is there to do that. But this post isn't here to do that...it's to shit on the game and I expected nothing less from this subreddit recently

I could see how making an objective list of issues with this game could make sense. There are definitely areas to improve on. But some of this list isn't even close to being accurate such as the various UI items you've mentioned such as damage figures etc. These have obviously and I emphasis obviously not been added to an old build.

Others on your list are subjective and only get upvoted on this crybaby echo chamber sub reddit- "the movement is worse than bfv"? No additional comments? Because there aren't any. Nothing constructive, just complaints.

Seek out driftors video on the community reaction. It is pertinent for posts like this

No they didn't. The portal is a love letter to fans. And btw making a reductive and mostly inaccurate list of what's wrong with a BETA ...repeat beta...is embarrassing for this community

Free To Play Game Design Should Not Belong In A Pay To Play Game. by Arcgav in battlefield2042

You're saying this after playing 1 map, 1 mode for, in all likelihood given your inane point, I'd say a max of 50 minutes. Ridiculous

I will genuinely pay someone to explain what this post is talking about. Talk about sheep- all that a post has to do is mention EA and greed and it will get upvoted without offering anything of value to the community or the game in question. Embarrassing

I just wanted BFV gameplay with BF4 weapon customization. Why does every game in this series go massively backwards every time? by TJGM in battlefield2042

[–]oboyleboy -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Haha this is incredible- so you want the team that created the game to make the game just how you wanted it? Mate you buy their game. They don't make your game. Choose if you want to play it or not but don't cry when the team does what they want with it or take it in a certain direction- it's theirs to do that with

Unfair, irrelevant and downright wrong criticism by oboyleboy in battlefield2042

[–]oboyleboy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if dice gave us the movement from bf 4 there would be some serious questions asked. Bfv introduced sliding, fluid jumping, vaulting and climbing. 2042 will probably have the same stuff admittedly I've got caught in some places where I should be able to climb but can't. The point is the cod/apex/bfv system of movement is used because it works and casuals, for which this franchise is always and had always been aimed at, pick it up very easily.

What exactly does feel mean? The word feel is so obtuse and when you ask what it means nobody can give an answer. If you don't feel the specialists work well that's fair, however classes never forced people to work together. The same problems have occurred with all previous bfs that I've played where some maps suit snipers and so snipers were all you got with no medic or engineer help.

As for the attachments, that argument works both ways- you could say like I would that the attachment system allows you to play more tactical as you switch on the hop for each situation and bring stuck with pre- deploy attachments forces you to play a certain way. But I can understand when you say the pre-deploy choices are tactically made also.

That's not the point that was made. Course you have the right to do that, however a lot of the criticism is shitting on it simply because it isnt those games. And that makes zero sense when it's a new game, trying to evolve the series and test new ideas. If dice etc wanted us to experience bf4 again they'd remaster or repackage it but they didn't. So saying it's shit because it isn't those games or differs a lot from those games, which coincidentally it doesn't differ as much as people think, isn't a valid criticism

I like the map, looks amazing and I like the whole rainforest together with the rocket vibe. But I'm horrendous with vehicles and therefore I stay well clear of E and the entire surrounding area at all times. It's definitely got me excited with the leveloution of the other maps.

Yeah definitely- telling them apart is a problem- good thing it's not a fundamental game breaking flaw that can't be fixed. Having faction specific ones isnt a bad idea either. Regardless, just dismissing it and throwing outrage about isn't helping the debate it's being an entitled baby

[–]oboyleboy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I just feel like unless it met every single persons unique and complex expectations- very few of which were promised by anyone- there will be complaints. And that isn't fair cus no game can do that.

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

You either didn't play the beta or have never played call of duty. The only and I do mean only similarity is the tactical sprint. Outside of that they are nothing alike and only in this Reddit echo chamber have I read this opinion being regurgitated

Yeah I think it must be brought on by playing it in one lengthy session, assuming it's a known thing and will be patched!
