Fart Car '97 posted:Tarkov isn't Janky at all it's just the BR equivalent of EVE online You just described an intensely janky *and* hyper micro-managey BR so George H.W. oval office posted:What is a Tarkov-like for those who never played it PvPvE multiplayer FPS with highly detailed gunplay. Join a match, bring in whatever gear you have in your persistent inventory, loot and shoot, optionally shoot other players to ratfuck people, extract with whatever loot you want. If you've played The Division, think of Dark Zone except if you die you lose whatever you have on you. The movement and shooting are modeled on ARMA, and the out-of-match stuff is basically an inventory management and crafting sim.

Skyarb posted:Ya'll are smoking crack. Tarkov is one of hte jankiest games I've ever played. Sure you get accustomed to the jank, and I think some people may even love it, but from its control schemes, to its networking problems, to its insanely obtuse penetration systems the game is built on a foundation of jank. Jank is never going to be well defined but I guess I consider jank more unintentional or unfinished stuff. Also more applicable to a game that is not going to be developed or supported any longer. Tarkov is obtuse but they want it to be obtuse.

I am absolutely mystified by how empty Battlefield 1 is here on PS4, like at any given time it seems there's literally only one server in the US where there actually are any players, it's downright bizarre how a game so much newer than 4 is way more dead

Wasn't BF4 pretty dead before the announcement as well?

Ugh I wish there was more info on BF2042 After that bomb shell of a trailer, we got the video above which was largely technical information and that vague talk about Hazard Zone. That drat EA Play or whatever the gently caress it's called is way too far away

Man battlefield 1 is such an incredible epic experience I love it, it’s a lot better than BF4 in my opinion. Also wasn’t the first closed beta happening in July? Maybe we’ll get more info then.

Which is just unacceptably long for how hype I am. Also hear me out: BF4 is an amazing game. In my opinion, better than BF1 (I never got nearly as much into BF1 than I did BF4). Or rather... it was. BF4's problem is that that the highs are high but the lows are low. You can have incredible games that really push your adrenaline, for example, when you're in an attack chopper on shanghai and going on rampage while the entire enemy team tries to kill you. On the flip side, you can also die instantly repeatedly by stuff you can barely do anything about. Snipers, jets, choppers... you name it. And with how long the game has been out, all of those are now incredibly good at the game (especially the air gods) which can make games absolutely infuriating. Which actually made me feel like my experience in the game got worse than it was closer to launch. BF1, in my opinion, has a much more "grounded" experience in comparison.

What the heck the only server I had on my Favorites list is gone today I guess the admin didn't pay the bill / pulled the plug being the first of the month? It was just a solid Conquest Large with all the DLC. Kinda lame that the server browser has a Maps filter but no DLC. e; actually why do some servers have these little DLC icons but then there are other servers without them that are running DLC maps?

Graybox environment (no level textures) to test netcode and server backend. It was originally supposed to be for "Battlefield Veterans" but the announcement and page were quietly changed to "Player council" ie EA Game Changers, YouTubers, and Streamers

I didn't really too leaderboards much in bf4 but always did OK points wise and usually felt like I had a good game Modern warfare i top the leaderboard most games and if I'm not winning I'm not having fun, essentially I think a lot of that comes down to the map size/player count and style of gameplay (although domination is pretty much conquest with less flags to cap) so it'll be interesting how 2042 does it. Going back to bf4 and just playing support, throwing ammo and suppressing fire at annoying snipers you maybe can't kill but can piss off enough that they give up is so nice. Gonna be nice not having jump/shot quick scopes.

Tarkov has extreme netcode issues. It’s arguably that game’s biggest fuckup, and Battlestate just wants to add another dozen AK variants rather than addressing that. Assuming they’re even capable of it. I posted this up thread somewhere, but it was a matter of time before somebody threw a real budget at a Tarkov-lite clone.

BF1 is great, but on certain maps, and especially on the operations game mode, attack planes can be more oppressive to infantry then any of the air in BF4 was.

It's kinda annoying having to bait out the flares, so it's essentially 2 shots to take out a heli... But yea I've gotten a lot of vehicle hunter ribbons the last few days. I had to swap to the RPG for a round recently because holy poo poo tank spam, but I did manage to pick a low-flying chopper out of the sky. Nothing makes you feel like a baller more than that.

I remember when the Ilya murmots first got rebalanced after the sea dlc I felt like I was taking crazy pills with how insanely strong it was. A forwards facing camera that spot marks the entire enemy team at infinite range? Bombs that covered roughly three square miles and rearmed in one pass? Way, way too much health? It was nuts Scrub-Niggurath fucked around with this message at 15:21 on Jul 1, 2021 |

Yea some people just pop their flares the second they hear the noise, but I've encountered a good number of pilots who seem to wait a bit longer  I don't know how to fly, I assume there's a cooldown between being able to flares? And probably an ammo capacity?

Sky gods in the modern games I feel like you have a much better chance of at least forcing them to gently caress off to other airspace. I think I've survived the BF1 plane grenade drop literally twice and died to it many, many more times than that.

There was the carrier mode in BF4 but since that was only on the DLC maps and also not as good it didn't stay populated long.

Yeah, while it's not far enough forward for full-on flying Titans, there's certainly room for opposing supercarriers or something of the sort. Considering the whole climate catastrophy angle, they could also do something with floating arks.

Titan mode but it's bases on tank treads like the cities in Mortal Engines.

I love BF1 and I'm sad that the series probably won't revisit WWI for many years, if ever. The balance is good, the vehicles are interesting and fun, the setting really lends itself to Operations (my favorite mode), the Dreadnoughts are a fun and interesting addition. It hits a lot of notes just right. And it addresses a nitpick I've had with BF for years: Airplanes, especially jets, are waaaaay faster IRL than they are in BF games. This is by necessity, a realistic speed and range jet in BF wouldn't work at all. With WWI era aircraft, it suddenly makes sense why the airplanes are so slow!

Kibayasu posted:There was the carrier mode in BF4 but since that was only on the DLC maps and also not as good it didn't stay populated long.  made it a 32 player mode. I don't think it'd be drastically more popular due to it being a DLC mode but I'd suspect that if it was a 64 player mode it might show up occasionally in the rotation on those all DLC maps (I think BF4 has the ability to mix multiple gamemodes in the rotation? I'm pretty sure that was possible in BF3).
