The worst netcode in gaming history and DX12 is a priority? really?

With the rise of the ARC series on the horizon, it seems like they'd migrate for the sake for allowing ARC GPU's to properly work with this game, hence why it's most likely a priority.

I myself have not been encountering these types of network issues.

Most of the time when I see others encounter them it's usually an issue with their setup or their ISP, which quite frankly has nothing to do with their servers at all.

I do agree their netcode can use quite some tweaks, it has plenty of flaws, though these issues aren't 100% guaranteed.

I don't see a problem with Seer's design either, as wallhacks aren't too powerful if we are denoting that this game isn't made for hide and seek.

As for Catalyst, what exactly has she to do with Valorant? 

I'm assuming that comment about the map was sarcastic, what exactly seems to be the issue there?

@RayleenKovacs 

I assumed it was sarcastic due to the excessive amount of dots, so sorry if I was mistaken.

I don't think you have to go at me like that when I'm simply trying to have a discussion here, I don't think it's necessary to reply like that if you're going to be unconstructive like that.

Now I'm not going into this too much so others can still discuss this, as I'm not wanting to derail this thread, though I find it a bad move.

Seer shouldn't be allowed to track players through walls if they're sneaking, or at least have a longer delay between heartbeats.

While with Catalyst, her abilities may be similar, they function differently in how they're deployed and in the situations it can be deployed in. That's like saying Octane is copying Sonic because he can run fast, yet one can constantly run fast with no penalties, and the other loses health each use and has to wait 2 seconds after each run.

Catalyst has zero control over how her wall is formed, other than a single direction for it to be deployed in, while in Valorant, the wall ability can be guided to curve around corners.

Gibraltar could very easily be more arguable as being a copy to another game, since dropping down a shield in which nothing gets in or out (besides Maggie's tactical) isn't a new feature. I'm pretty sure League of Legends already have that ability.

I'm not a balance dev, so my opinions will of course not always reflect the best course of action nor the opinion of others.

If you don't agree with me, that's fine, though just saying that you don't agree isn't really going to prove helpful to the team IMO.

Providing arguments to why it would be too OP is much more helpful, which could have a positive impact on the game.

Personally I think it's fine, hiding isn't really the intention of this game so it can assist when players are trying to bail out of a fight.

I think it's more used for locating teams, which could make potential third parties easier.

Though of course this makes it quite hard to escape a team, as they'll pretty much always know your exact position.

Some tweaks might be possible, so if we do small tweaks and test that then we can get proper data and see the right course of action from there.

Also I don't think you have to mention whether or not I've won or lost my credibility to you.

Making these kinds of comments has no other use than trying to stir the pot, which is something we shouldn't do on these forums.

Again, I'm not going into this too much to prevent the topic from derailing.

I also believe there is a problem with their decisions but not in the same way as you say. I think we should bring their attention to the real issue: rank smufs, no map rotation on rank, no point in doing rank if you can't grind with high entry cost and low kill points with randosm, etc.

I think you invent issues that are not. Issues are most likely on your side not theirs. They develop the software and provide the servers while your harware and your internet providers do create those issues: high latency, frame drop, etc.

I have no frame drop! Super good ping all the time and the only time I never had reg issue is at the start of season 14 in 1 game... and Respawn solved the problem very quickly in like a few days.

YOUR reg issue most likely comes from your harware and internet provider issue. And it can come from bad aiming.

When you aim you have to calculate : speed of moving target, possible change in target movement, speed of bullet to travel that distance, bullet drop for the target's position.

I mean... who's in charge of this game? what's the problem with management here?

To Respawn's CTO and CEO: 

You really believe that having issues like

• no-reg damage --> this being the oldest and highest of issues for an FPS
• high ping
• framerate drops
• The worst servers of ALL FPS current mainstream (includiing fortnite, COD, Valorant and even Battlefield)
• Cheating, cheatting, cheating, cheating... Is it to much to ask for verified accounts and permanent bans?

Respawn priority list:

1. make sure the store works

2. skins

3. check the store again 

4. more skins

5. Is the store still working?

6. Do we have enough skins?

7. Stickers

8.  store

9. Skins

10. Actual game health 

Hi Everybody, 

I wanted to share this with you because didn't want to miss the pleasure that this situation gave me: 

Yes, they have removed my last reply to a desperately obsecuent guy that behind his politically correct mask said that I had no point and all I was saying was not true and maybe "my connection's fault" (I have a 1GB simetric cabled fiber optic connection, and almost the best set up money can buy).

So just for the sake of my point, here gos a couple shots of some guys having the same issues I have, maybe you will know them:

I've been here since season 0, spent my money and time on this game, made a ton of contributions to this forum, even on the developer end, and the best EA had to offer to me in these 3 years was... a BAN?? really?. 

I'm done. Done with this forum, done with its woke moderators and policies, done with this game.
