Mega Comrade posted:Do you have atleast an 8 core cpu? Anything less and expect sub 60fps. I found a weird fix online that somehow helped dramatically for me. The fix was to click the "Restore Defaults" button. For some reason it only works if you click that button and not when you manually change settings (I previously had even tried setting everything to "Low" with barely any improvement). I was in disbelief that such thing would matter, but it made my framerate improve from like 40-50 (with frequently temporary drops to 20-30) to 60-80 (with it virtually never dropping below 60). The Reddit post that mentioned it is also full of other people having the same experience. I'd be curious to know exactly what's up with that. My FPS is still dramatically lower than it would normally be with a 2080S, likely due to not having an 8-core CPU, but it made the difference between things being unplayable vs playable.

Mang Tomas posted:Game is $39.99 right now on steam. I paid $35 and have played for 76 hours, so I got my money's worth. I'm on a 6-core PC FWIW and it runs fine, albeit at lower settings and resolution. I enjoy it much more than the new Warzone in terms of casual MP shooters. The maps are not filled with bots unless you disable crossplay. This thread sometimes feels full of bots...

You know a great way to ensure everybody is able to find a full server without relying on cross play no matter the region or time of day? a goddamn server browser.

This game appears to be doing decently well on PS5. I don't see bots in servers and turned crossplay off day 1.

Series X here, turned crossplay off. Rounds will start with a ton of bots but within 2-3 minutes they’ve been replaced with players completely. That’s just in AOW, though. My guess is Portal would be a ghost town

Getting a lot of people complaining that they just joined at the end of a round, usually on the losing side. Some salty players leaving if they dont win, something useless in a BF game really. Seeing alot of hackers though the last few days. One fucker casually walked in lock on and headshotting six of us, then got into a heli and one handed forced camped us back to base for the rest of the round.

It's very confusing and makes me wonder if there are some "behind the scenes" settings that were maybe changed by an update or something and are affected by the Restore Defaults option. I'm still bottlenecked by CPU (I end up with almost full CPU usage and like ~70% GPU usage), but it's not nearly as bad as it was before.

Wait a goddamn second, I knew shooting lit you up on the minimap but for 5 solid seconds? Also 2 of the suppressors (6KU and Wrapped) don't even stop you from showing up on the minimap? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KH9DpPsDTRE Henrik Zetterberg posted:Suppressors are still loud as gently caress IRL Yeah they're only meant to alter the sound profile and lower the level to a point where it isn't catastrophic damage to your hearing jisforjosh fucked around with this message at 01:58 on Dec 22, 2021 |

Also 2 of the suppressors (6KU and Wrapped) don't even stop you from showing up on the minimap? Supposedly the normal suppressors only work at a certain distance from the enemy. Heavy suppressors hide you all the time. Booyah- posted:PKP seems to be everywhere now, what do people like with it It shoots fast as gently caress, has a huge ammo capacity and is relatively accurate. The recoil is also surprisingly manageable. It can't equip many barrel attachments(or any underbarrel ones), but it's already really good at it's one job of murdering everyone. Also it has a perma bipod that actually autodeploys, unlike the regular bipod attachments where you have to manually do it

yeah I should have been more clear, I was wondering which attachments to use. messing around with it I think I like horizontal recoil control better than vertical for the PKP. most other guns its the opposite

I really prefer the low power sights because it reminds me not to gently caress around with people out past 70m or so because they will probably have something that's more accurate.

I've had EA Pro Pass for awhile now, I don't see why I wouldn't play the game if I enjoy it just because other people are upset about it. People can continue to post complaints on reddit, and I'll continue to keep playing if I'm having fun.

chocolateTHUNDER posted:5 seconds doesent seem that crazy to me? 5 seconds for a regular spot is fine. 5 seconds because you fired your gun in a shooter is a bit excessive. The BF4 system of you showing up while you were shooting and the spot fading within a second and not moving with you was perfect.

The BF4 system of you showing up while you were shooting and the spot fading within a second and not moving with you was perfect. Yeah, shot spotting should be exactly that. Just a short marker for the position of the shots, not a moving spot for 5 seconds. I found out why I thought Rao's powerglove spotting was bugged. When you switch to Rao's computer, the sonar ONLY spots the enemies in your direct line of sight and nothing else. I'm just gonna repeat that that's absolutely useless.

the maps are so gigantic w/ so many doodads that it's impossible to clear all the angles in an area or not start getting shot from the middle of nowhere so being spotted for a while b/c you shot is fine if you don't like it use a suppressor lol 5 seconds might be a bit much and people could theoretically abuse it by lining up the top of their minimap on you through smokes

place a turret, smoke >= 3m behind the turret, then use an ammo box properly to have an indefinite smoke up the turret will 3d spot enemies for you through the smoke to shoot there is a ton of counterplay to this tactic though to destroy or disable the turret so it's not really that busted

comedyblissoption posted:if you don't like it use a suppressor lol I mean, suppressors are pretty useless as well since they don't prevent you getting spotted from within 20m unless you use the heavy ones. The game right now is that there's very little that you can do not being spotted 90% of the time.

did some testing and the light suppressors actually decrease your damage by 10% and the heavy suppressors decrease it by 15% in general this means your bullets to kill increases by 1 even against armored targets (so that means 2 more hits than normal) which is pretty bad the heavy suppressor usually doesn't increase your bullets to kill from using a light suppressor but it can happen

I don't really get the complaint about the 5s on the minimap. This isn't a Battle Royale, I don't think more visibility for infantry on the minimap is game-breaking or anything.comedyblissoption posted:place a turret, smoke >= 3m behind the turret, then use an ammo box properly to have an indefinite smoke up Seems fun with the PKP. I've started running the smoke launcher on my AC-42 by default as well as smoke grenades. Regrettably I am still only on T4 with smoke somehow.

It's not game breaking it's more that in the current state of the game there are already so many things that can 3D spot you. Players manually, drones automatically, shooting, sentry guns automatically, and everyone and their mom carrying prox sensors since it's one of the fastest ways to level AND best way to spot doesn't help matters. Player visibility as infantry isn't that big of an issues in this game given the color palettes of the maps/player models combined with a severe lack of cover/concealment. The only thing 3D spotting does is make it easier for heli pilots to farm.
