Dinosaurs! posted:Balancing gameplay around 10+ unique classes sounds difficult. Splitting the traditional load out choices into rigid classes under the guise of more options would be lazy. I’m sorry if my comment during this afternoon of speculation and shitposting upset you. Given how works out it's going to start of unbalanced as gently caress but I love

No battlefield game has ever been balanced and yet the best ones are the ones where the everything is overpowered in its own special way

Specialists on paper seem kinda cool but at the end of the day the best ones are probably just going to be the ones with mobility. Like of the announced ones so far the only 2 that seem worth playing are grappling hook and wing suit. Maybe 1 of the medic ones per squad, but the others seem hopelessly outclassed by mobility.

I don’t like the idea of specialists at all, in any game, but if they’re set to be in hopefully it will be like in Siege where everybody is essentially the same aside from their little situation-specific gadgets. Admittedly comparing BF and Siege is apples and oranges, but still. Call of Duty was on a specialist kick for a handful of games, and every one of them was poorer for it.

Admittedly comparing BF and Siege is apples and oranges, but still. Siege has some of the stronger Specialist/Class distinction in any game because your choice determines your primary and secondary weapon choice, armor/speed class, as well as a gadget. The only stronger differences you find will be in TF2 and Overwatch. With BF2042 it seems like it's just a gadget and a perk and that's it? You can still pick any guns you want?

I would explain it but: The United States posted:In-Engine just means "using a photomode that takes several seconds to render every frame to like 30720x17280 pixels + z-buffer, which is then downsampled to actual trailer resolution with the z-buffer used for nice DOF effects" because let's face it, game engines have been able to render stuff that looks pre-rendered as long as they take long enough to render each frame to a super high resolution since Crysis. Mr Beens posted:No he didn't. Ah, I didn't know he remained head of Respawn as well, that is cool. He did have a number of his long time staffers move to DICE LA though.

runchild posted:Was anyone else mildly weirded out by how much the trailer focused on people getting squished/ shot en masse/running in terror rather than doing cool things? Most of the people “winning” were kind of framed as the bad guy (or were just forces of nature), while the ones framed as protagonists just got chased/slaughtered. it seemed like it was highlighting that there are AI bots in the game now. it felt very Titanfall-ish where the player 'specialists' are bad rear end dudes and the regular AI grunts are shitlords to get wasted

Just that you can set up servers to substitute players with bots if you want. So you can have 128 players, or 28 players and 100 bots

I saw the OP bullet point of AI in FULL matches to mean that there will always be some bots, but that could mean bots just fill empty player slots.

If they just pull cool things from TF2 into Battlefield like auto turret engineers and syringe gun medics I'm honestly here for it. Make poo poo fun! Also give me a super-tunguska with quad 30mm chainguns and dual KORNET launchers that have laser-guide support for, ya know, teamwork and fire support.

I’m curious if you can do 127bots plus yourself on a map. Are the bots server side control? I remember they had a tech demo spawning a zillion bots not too long ago.

Looks… interesting. The Motely Crew song in the trailer seems to be .. setting the tone? We will see, I won’t pre order it, but 64x64 does sound wonderful. Hopefully that means more than 2 tanks.

It is the C-SPAM border. You decide which side is which. Hey while I'm posting wishful thinking I hope that rising fuel prices mean PMCs are using horses again. Cavalry owns in BF1.

Or if it limits it to smaller player (bot) count matches. It was cool that progression is the same in bot matches too so you’re not kind of punished for it. And really who cares about letting someone unlock weapon attachments vs ai.
