Perestroika posted:It was never really all that good at twitchy short-ranged infantry-only firefights. Though maybe the new developer manages to turn that around, I dunno. Compared to other games like it (i.e. CoD), the gunplay is absolutely better. What you said was definitely applicable in BF2's heyday but not since BC2 I would say. Granted, this game will probably be bad.

Movement a bit floaty, netcode a bit slow on the uptake, and at short ranges most of the automatic weapons ended up behaving very similar. I'll absolutely agree that it worked very well in the medium-to-long ranged firefights that you'd see on most maps, but in confined spaces (Operation Locker  ) it tended to break down somewhat.

Especially once you go outside the ~100 metres of the high-frequency bubble. If you view distant enemies through a high-powered scope, you literally see all the rubberbanding that happens without high-frequency updates.

This is made by a completely different studio so comparing it to BF4 or talking about BF4 is kind of silly??

Eonwe posted:yea i mean its only in the exact same engine with the same publisher and probably some shared assets Precisely. And Halo 4 is a really good game so this one will probably be aswell. Also this isn't going to be rushed out to release so it can be on the shelves before Call Of Duty: Advance Wars: Days of Ruin: Rising: Revegneance 2 like Halo 4 was so it will be in a much better state at release. The same can't be said about Battlefront however so I'd avoid that piece of poo poo. Pierson posted:How was Heist-mode in the alpha/beta? An AAA-quality, PVP version of Payday 2 sounds fuckin' awesome but this is DICE and Battlefield so I have little hope of that being true. It's basically a combo of Rush+CTF where the bad guys (criminals) need to blow up an MCOM to steal the loot inside and then take it to an extraction point while the even worse guys (cops (just another gang)) need to stop them. It was really fun in the alpha, like really really fun. The blood-money mode was the one that most people played the most and that one was lame but there will still be conquest so don't worry too much.

Is Viscera based in Sweden as well? Because I kinda look forward to "We were, like, totally unable to fix any of those bugs in a timely manner because the King of Sweden prohibits us from working too much!" arguments 2.0.

How long is the Beta going to last for? Hopefully 2+ weeks to justify the download size. Any bets on if the Beta will be 8, 10, 20 or 40GB in size? BF4 was 40+ gigs before I uninstalled it.

I'll be honest. I'll try the beta and see how it is but there is no way that I'm preordering this knowing that it'll get on sale like a month after release and keysellers will feast on its body.

Yeah same here. I just want to play it so I can say I did and back my disdain up with facts. Then I'll pick it up from the bargain bin for 10 bucks if at all. I don't need a CS Payday COD GTA clone. Especially not disguised as a BF game because they know an independent IP with this concept would tank even more because non rose-tinted-glasses players will see it as the overpriced DLC that it is.

Hotwire mode looks amazing and exactly the sort of crazy dumb poo poo that the first beta was missing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vmfidEfPLg Capture points are cars, and you have to get in the car and drive it faster than 30mph to "capture" it - if you slow down, you lose capture and have to speed up again. If the car is destroyed you lose the point and another randomly selected car on the map becomes the new capture point car. So basically everyone is driving around the map in circles trying to maintain their speed and also shooting at the other cars in order to destroy them. Also here's all the changed made since the first beta, such as making the RPGs and LMGs pickups and the reshuffling of the gadgets and class weapons: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoxN0JMH6Ws Assepoester fucked around with this message at 01:38 on Feb 3, 2015 |

"Gold Lead Pipe" So... a gold pipe then? Edit: So, you can now buy Battlepacks with the in-game currency. Or they REALLY upped their microtransaction prices.

The first beta ran about the same as BF4 did, perhaps slightly worse performance given it was limited to 32 players and the map was pretty small. Much better than the BF4 beta though.
