Apparently Dice have disabled all xp progession on Portal to stop farming

I think BF 2042 is fine, although DICE need to make a few changes.

Adding a classic scoreboard is a must, what the fuck were they thinking with this new one. I haven’t checked properly, but there’s no player stats in the main menus which I also find strange, it’s like they’re catering for the newcomers.

Audio is pretty bad, footsteps are just weird. I often god mad at the silent footsteps in Warzone but battlefields audio is a mess.

Hit reg seems to be off as I’m losing 1v1 fights when I’m clearing hit the bullets to kill people.

Overall, it’s a good battlefield on day 1 of release. DICE are known for releasing games in a bad state. All of them issues are easily fixed, but there are other issues to but it doesn’t make it unplayable. Maps are designed nicely, hourglass is brilliant. Haven’t been able to play Hazard Zone yet, but it sounds like it’s a disappointment, which I’m not surprised with. When it got announced I just thought it sounds like something you won’t for two or three games and shelve it. The should have released it early next year and added more depth to it. They should have released a game mode which could have really challenged Warzone, it didn’t have to be a BR either.

The industry needs to stop releasing all these unfinished games. Or at least consumers need to stop pre-ordering. It’s farcical that people are paying £60+ for a standard game and finding it full of problems. I learned my lesson after the mess with Kingdom come: deliverance.

Playing WoW "classic" - now progressing through TBC.

WoW is extremely popular - and there's just so many idiotic game decisions that can easily be addressed. Might Blizzard actually fix WoW?... Not happening. I'm going to quit the game once more at some point.

But does it really fucking matter?

Not to me or you, but what's the point of it being there besides a rogue/disgruntled employee looking to get a rise out of people?

If it was a deliberate satirical act approved by the management and they targeted more than just the Quran and Muslims I think I would be more sympathetic. But I don't care about some some twat provoking people and not even using humour.

I swear I'm the only person on earth that plays Dark Souls naked.

I thought it was mate, the constant grind for something next patch is irrelevant is crap. The original was good in the community it’s very toxic as everyone rushes to end game, the getting a purple seemed an achievement these days it’s expected.

Nice one. I'll swerve a bit longer then I think.
