Battlefield 6 | OT | Time to Sheikh things up.

Well, my Gamepass expired, going to get rid of the Xbox, fuck paying them just to play online and I'm done buying games on it now, not keen on getting BF6 on PC, so I'll wait till I can get a PS5 or something.
 
  • Reduced the speed that can be carried from sliding into jumping, lowering momentum (especially horizontal).
  • Increased the penalty for repeated jumps and slightly lowered the jump height.
  • Increased weapon inaccuracy when firing while jumping or sliding.

These all sound great. Especially the jumping accuracy.
These three things alone just made me pre-order.
 
Could always volunteer for an OT then you could decide yourself. Or stick a suggestion in the OT suggestion thread instead of moaning after the fact.

"I could have done better but couldn't be arsed" basically. Lame.
Don't take it so personally man. Like I said it's a great OT, the title just isn't my vibe, I'm sure other people like it since it was chosen. I didn't even see that there was a BF6 OT title suggestion thread, is this something you guys do for all OTs?

Not taking it personally, community picked the title. OT suggestion threads are done from time to time.
 
I like the title. But as we get ready to be joined by our CoD brethren tomorrow, the sentiment in my suggested title still stands: PTFO Codsuckers
 
Those only reviewing the campaign....makes me kinda believe they should have separate reviews for that. But it IS part of the game, so yeah.
 
This video's pretty good and making me want to just pre-order it.


Damn. I remember being a bit disappointed with some of the textures in beta. Welp, here we go

Damn there are so many improvements. Fuck man cant wait for tomorrow.

Having a tough time deciding whether to get this for SX or PS5 Pro.

On Xbox, I already have GPU until July 2026, so I'd have online access and get it for $63 with the discount. The Pro is 4K60 in Fidelity mode, but I don't have PS+. Not sure if thats enough of a difference to justify getting it over the SX version. I could also just get a month of PS+ and wait for the Black Friday deals on the yearly subscription.

God I hate paying for online.
 
The game looks fantastic even on console. Really goes to show how important leadership is when making games. Turns out that the 2042 devs weren't a bunch of retards, there's actually some talent there.

Bravo Vince!
 
To Phantom edition or not?
I went with Phantom, though no real reason, even the early xp boost didn't sound that significant. But since I'm gonna stick with it as my main shooter for the next few years, with everything looking solid right from launch and support also promising.. why not.
 
That gold/bronze mastery camo looks sick. Not too garish either, so you won't look like you're rocking something from Saddam Hussien's personal armoury.
 
I criticized this game at first, then I played it. I loved it... COD, from what I played again, "SAME GAME 6 7"..... WHAT AM I DONE.

Seen a few people in the various threads asking for team mates. @me in here with your user names and platform if you want to group up. If there's a few takers I'll get a list going in the second post when I get chance.

Zero sleeps btw, just need to not die between now and launch.
 
Saw this on a reddit. Liberation Peak before and after the map boundaries are extended. If anyone remembers the foggy area below the mountain, there's a small village there that would now be part of the playable space. Add a capture point down there and you immediately have an expanded, far more interesting version of the map. Portal really does have so much potential

Unsure what edition to get for this one as a
Long fime, dedicated player to the series. Phantom Edition seems like just cosmetics


Is that incorrect? Seems pretty vague to me unless I am missing something here

few boosts etc, but nothing amazing. but the phanton edition does have a amazing recon skin.

but its not worth it, but i still bought it :messenger_tears_of_joy: :messenger_tears_of_joy:
 
Are you guys all jumping in at release?

I am a bit on the fence. The beta didn´t exactly blew me away and I think the maps were all mediocre at best.

And only 9 maps at launch, with only 3 of them to have the full set of vehicles is a bit low. Additionally two of these 9 are infantry only, which I dislike. I want to play Battlefield, and not Call Of Duty.

Yes. It's not perfect, but I'm bored with BLOPS. It looks substantially better than 2042 as well.
 
Am I understanding right that portal wont be allowing flat map creation at launch?

Will the servers burn later?
Not heard that. As far as I'm aware the full fat portal releases with the game.

I'm cautiously optimistic on the servers. There were big queues for about half an hour when the beta launched then it was mainly smooth sailing. I'm sure they learned from that.
