With the various game size differences will the older version games on console be in their own lobbies?

Yes. PS4/Xbox One and their Pro variants are on a 64 player lobby. PS5/Xbox Series S/X and PC are on the 128 player lobby.

I think on most servers you could even come top-10 in points without even firing your weapon, just run around healing/reviving/resupplying people and be a body on points.

I've seen rumor that the first four Portal maps are gonna be Locker, Metro, Wake, and Shanghai.

What the gently caress DICE, you really gonna do my Arica Harbor like that?

Just like, gently caress Locker and Metro forever. One or the other sure but not both

Zip lines were the best addition. Just fun all around and actually useful!

If you were slick, you could shoot them through an open door or window and land in relative safety.

Arica Harbor was already announced as one of the launch maps.

Arica Harbor, El Alamein, Battle of the Bulge, Valparaiso, Caspian Border, and Noshahr Canals.

Is it I that is insane... or the rest of the world?
Damavand Peak was such a good map.

I'm not even talking about the balance, the mountain jump and the tunnel made it so unique that it was fun in it's own way.

Iirc it was always a bit stacked toward the defense, but yea that base jump is a battlefield all timer.

Oh it's 100% the base jump at the beginning, I have almost no recollection of the rest of the map

Philman
Jan 20, 2004

The rest of the map is a tunnel choke point that a tank and his repair squad camp. You can take a chopper over it but you just get blown up as soon as you go over the mountain. The cliff jump in rush is great but the map is painful otherwise.

There’s a set of rush caps in two buildings between the base jump and the tunnel killing floor, but other than that, this post is correct.

e: I think the conquest version of this map does away with the base at the top of the mountain and the jump entirely while only using the tunnel and the two bases at either end, but I may be misremembering.

RCarr

Yea conquest has just the tunnel and bases on either end. I remember always trying to fly my little bird through the tunnel.

Inspector Hound
Jul 14, 2003

Sounds like they should just slap the base jump on both sides of metro and locker conquest, problem solved

e more seriously, I don't want to insta-die the moment a building starts to collapse, give me a chance to jump off or run out for Pete's sake. Also if I'm standing in a sturdy doorway or perfectly underneath a skylight I should survive.

100% make sure you are signed up for the Sony Direct buy system. You have to have PS+ active. Google up some instructions because you have to opt into a specific setting ON CONSOLE itself not just the website its dumb.

I can’t for the life of me find out how. The direct website says it’s sold out with no way to sign up for an invite. Every other website says just to have a PSN account and hope for an email? I’ve got a ps4 and ps+ but have never seen an email.

on your PS4 go to:

Go to Account > Notification Preferences

Check the box that reads:

Yes, I am interested in receiving marketing materials from Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE). I understand I can unsubscribe at any time

or something just like that, after you should receive like one marketing email a week. If you get those marketing emails you have turned all the correct switches on.
