Battlefield 4 and Battlefront now have more or less the same amount of players.
>>
>>319631648

you think EA cares about whos left? no.

its all about those sales.

if the game sold over 1 million copies but has only 40k players left, they don't care.

There's so many good games released in the past 2 months or so. I bought SWB but haven't even had a chance to play it properly yet. I figure a lot are in the same boat

As someone who actually owns the game, PC version is dying fast. I'd be surprised if it is at 2k simultaneous players by the end of the week.

Even the rabid fanboys are beginning to realize that the game has zero depth.

The premium edition was like $20 week ago. Nobody plays the DLC maps so don't waste money on that. Community Outbreak was latest FREE DLC and shit is like Crysis on steroids.

I just got BF4 premium for $20 and it's actually pretty good.

I think it's just that it's obviously a cash grab expansion being sold as a stand alone game for extra money.

It may be decent, but not worth the price of a full game.

the problem was shitty netcode, the game was barely playable due to lag at first, dlc had no bearing on it

>>319631648
The game would be good if their was balance.

A Lv1 stands literally no chance against a LV50.
>>
>>319633343
it's not even decent, it doesn't make use of the setting at all, it's just battlefield 4 with less guns and vehicles, there's no reason to ever make an arrest, or any interesting heist missions for criminals, it's just shooting like it's a warzone
>>
>>319633245

They took cops and robbers gametype and pasted it over Battlefield 4 maps. It should be DLC at best but somehow they managed to sell it as full game.

>>319633304

I don't know. I know you can get ballistic shield from one of the DLC packs and Community Outbreak has fancy bow and arrow. I only care about my AKU-12.
>>
>>319633470
There's no balance but it's not a level thing. It's a 'whoever sees the other guy first' thing with no solutions outside of wasting a slot on a bubble shield. No encounter actually feels like a fight

There's a whole heap of multiplayer games you can literally only play on consoles outside of the NA/EU bubble. You either make peace with playing on console or you don't play.

Just get premium ignore that nigger saying no one plays the dlc. Most of the best maps are from the dlc and you need the dlc to get the guns. Plus if you only play the base game you run into the EA access hackers who can play the base game for free over and over again even after getting banned. Most of the servers I play on are hardcore all map mixes and it's great.

It's not a surprise that the PC version has much less players than the console versions. Most Mustard Race fags tend to wait until sales to actually buy games.

>>319634467
The base weapon balance has been shit since they made the rifles pea shooters after launch. If I wanted long kill times and not being able to rifle people down from 200m if I have a suppressor on I'd play casual hardcore I guess. But since I just play the game like the arcade shooter it is I play hardcore since not being able to kill someone 50m out with a carbine in under 8 bullets is retarded.

There's Australian servers for recent/very popular games, but anything off the beaten path dies very quickly. Games like Evolve has been stone-cold dead for months, despite sales. At least in the US there's 500 or so players on constantly. PC games die especially quickly, as apparently PC gaming isn't that popular here.

And it depends on what kind of game - for something like an MMO, the lag is usually 250ms to 400ms - it's manageable but not great obviously. For an FPS it's pretty unplayable.

>>319635129
Yeah, so what.

It's a clusterfuck pain in the ass with the in-browser customization because you have to buy guns/equipment for both cops and robbers sides (fire whoever thought this was a good idea), and the game isn't fun, it's like battlefield with a bunch of shit just stripped out of it with nothing to fill the void.
There's nothing that makes it a cops-and-robbers type of game, save for skins and names, it's just shitty Battlefield without all the cool weapons and vehicles.

Battlefront outsold Splatoon in a day. And it also has more maps and modes despite the fact that Splatoon has got a lot of content updates.

famous names + tv marketing + the fact 90% of gamers only play for a small window of their life, replenishing the ignorant crowd every years with new 12 years olds makes it easy.

I don't think we have any numbers of Titanfall on PC. Like we have no idea how many people bought the game or played it at any given point.

There are sicknesses cats can get that do that to them

But why the outrage, he is a literal autistic robot, its why he could do what he did and what us, cat-carebears won't.

Its funny, seeing 4chan berating a person for not having enough empathy.

double sided tape. or take regular tape, and fold it on itself. put it on the edges and arms of the couch. its sticky on the cats paws, they dont like it. after a few days, they wont hop up.

is right, theres nothing to it beyond that.

>>
>>319637451

I liked the game, especially because I am (partially) a fan of Star Wars. That's the simple truth.

What I am actually interested in discussing is how hypocritical people can be, whining about a bad thing about one game and then ignoring it when Nintendo, Rockstar or Valve or any of the other "good" companies does the same thing.

But people don't want to discuss that, they just want to stay in their safe spaces in order to not face the cognitive dissonance. EA exploits consumers and treats their employees like shit, but what they do is completely normal for the industry.
>>
>>319637586

>so it'll piss and shit on the floor

Again, we have no details, and in any case, if I got big shit on my plate like they did, and my cat started pissing on my computer due to some disease, it would be short tracked as well.

I, personally, never brought up any of those thinks and I quite frankly don't give enough of a fuck to discuss it. I'm trying to discuss battlefront in a battlefront thread specifically because I found it to be pretty awful but I still enjoy reading what other people have to say about it that isn't mindless fanboyism.
>>
>>319638001
yeah, right, so, theres like, 10 million other cat owners who can are fine, but they all shit and piss everywhere and theres nothing you can do about it.

wait.

and thats not even THE ISSUE. he gave the cat to a kill center...instead of the multitude of people that liked him so much they PAID to put a plaque up with its name on it. IN the ID offices itself.

I have no reason to continue this discussion with you, since you just ignore everything already said, or just seems like you think Carmack is a normal person.

Nobody wants a sick cat btw.

I don't know if this is supposed to say bad things about Battlefied 4 or good things about Battlefront.

Was this an exploit or something?

Considering its a game where you can go 60-5 easily I don't even see the reason why the guy was so tense.

Not really

EADICE did their surveys, and decided that the TWO HOURS it takes to learn a Battlefield game is just far too much for the audience they want - everyone.
So they made a game that takes 5 minutes to pick up and be good at.

They even admitted it by now, the aim was to make the game playable for both 8 and 38 year olds, apparently they do not see how this is a bad idea for anything that isn't a nintendo couch-coop console game.
>>
>>319639442
their audience for this isn't battlefield or battlefront vets
it's not even gamers
it's "star wars fans", which is obviously a very wide group, a lot of people buying/getting it this holiday probably have never touched a video game before

so they did alright with that, but honestly, walker assault is way too complex a mode, even I a seasoned gamer didn't figure out what the fuck it was about until my 4th or 5th round

and understanding what a loadout or "hold button to interact" is, is probably also asking too much

they could have had more depth with less complexity, which just shows how incompetent dice really is at game design
>>
>>319639660
>they could have had more depth with less complexity

Elaborate because I don't think you make sense.

Walker assault was extremely simple to grasp for me, as I'm sure itw as was anyone who knows what a hit marker is.
>>
>>319631780
EA wanted the game to sell around 13 million copies by early next year

good luck with that

They will probably reach it.

I want this game to fail, shame it sold millions just because it is "muh Star Wars.'
More people will buy it when The Force Awakens comes out as well because of "muh Star Wars."

It is a bad game underneath and it deserves to die. If you want an actual good online fps buy R6 Siege, you even get all DLC maps and gamemides for free.
>>
>>319639798
figuring out how to shoot is one thing, that's deathmatch

I'm talking about the rules for when to shoot the walker, how many y wings are brought in

it's not clear at all that when you hold it for the required time nothing happens, you're just queuing up y wings for the three fixed points in the game

and it's just really needlessly complex for a very shallow mode, a more tactically interesting mode could have been made with less complexity, such as a wolfenstein ish attack/defend objective mode, it's easier to understand when something happens in the map than when it happens in arbitrary rules running in the background
>>
>>319639442
>>319639660

Still she went along with this decision

Anyway.... This makes absolutely no sense.

If you want to make a game for starwars fans you have to make a single player or coop game.

Children aren't smart. They will die against real players.
They need stupid computer player enemies for it to be easy.

DICE really fucked up even on what they wanted to accomplish.

Unless you make the game eay enough that nobody above the age of 10 will want to play it

>>319639217
Well, the model and sound accuracy is *really* good. The game drips Star Wars atmosphere, even if it has the depth of a puddle

>>319640076
>If you want an actual good online fps buy R6 Siege, you even get all DLC maps and gamemides for free.

And you get the worst matchmaking ever devised by a game dev team as a bonus!

Matchmaking was fixed before the game was released.

There is a problem where sometimes it connects you to the wrong data center that they are fixing that in a patch that is coming in the next 5 days or so.

I mean the game wasn't that easy. It just lacked depth.
It is pretty difficult to use vehicles the vehicles and winning was even more difficult because there is hardly any cover and the respawn rate is ridiculous. You kill like 4 people and they end up respwawing 100 feet away within 4 seconds.

The game is just extremely frustrating.

Besides when I was 10 I was playing pokemon. That's extremely simple
>>
>>319640101

I guess I agree on some parts - but for the general pleb
>i spawn and shoot people
is more than enough, especially sprinkled with
>i picked up this thing and now I'm controlling %starwars vehicle%!!!!! super fuuuun!

They don't give a shit about objectives.

>>319640203

No friend, its not made for star wars fans, its made for star wars "fans". you know like "gamers" in 2015 and the like.
Actual fans get pulled into the title by the simple fact that they have no alternatives bar ye-olde star wars titles.
I'm not even a fan but I like the series enough that even I got a solid urge to just queue up the movies on my second monitor and blast away in this piece of shit. Thankfully my 3rd worlder paycheck is more than enough to stop me from spending anything on EA titles - but I doubt the same applies in the US.

>>319640217

New age 4chan for sure, Carmack represents the old us a lot more, disregard all life in favor of video games.

Gamestop of all places is already selling it for $40. The season pass is more expensive than the base game.

haha fuck no it does not why do people keep saying this? If I made a game using props from the movies and locations from it but completely ignore researching it my game would drip atmosphere, they get more things wrong then star wars games that ignore canon
>>
>>319640101
you should not be shooting walkers to begin with did Dice cover their ears when the commander said "They are impervious to blaster fire?" why include tie fighters on hoth it defeats the purpose of the AT-AT so many retarded choices in this game
>>
>>319642319
I know, a good hoth map would be about defending the rebel transports and the ion cannon long enough to escape, bringing down AT-AT's should be merely incidental

the "victory" is escaping
>>
>>319642397
to bad dice just googled battle of hoth and did not actually watch the movies or we might have gotten a fun game. How can one game company who promised authenticity pretty much show they never watched the movies and people still praise them for oozing star wars. I am not even a huge star wars fan I just watched the movies and can see they never did
>>
>>319640295
Atmosphere might actually be worth something on a single player mode. You can't really enjoy it on a multiplayer game though - shit's happening too fast for you to drink it in.
>>
>>319632587
Yeah, thank god you consolefags are always there keep pieces of shit like this or Assassins Creed alive.
