Audio and Hit registration
So I jumped back on BF2042 after a few months to play on the new exposure map and I guess the game is still flowing with the same problems. Firstly the audio: the background audio of the game is dec...
The hitreg hasn't been too kind for me either. Dumping half a mag or even more with the M5A1.
Or at times getting 1 frame killed... drop like a sack of potatoes in less than a second.
"The die behind the wall thing", after being shot at and taking cover, is still a thing too...
The delay on my screen is actually a real issue. I have no idea if it`s only broken in-game mouse tracking. There is no PING lobby info. Additionally, my RTX 2070 (MSI Ventus) in reality performs as 2060. The CPU constantly asks the GPU if it can render the proper frame time probably. So having all that in mind really shows the scope of the problem. I made sure to run memory at 3850Mhz with the most optimal timings with R9 3900X and this helped me a lot in certain games.
So yeah, fixing in-game mouse tracking, working more on the netcode, game optimization, and bringing back community servers with PING info could save at least some frustration.
The audio is not the greatest, tank sounds are on par with the indie game level of immersion not to mention the physics of some of the vehicles.
Stuttering on 128-player maps is real!!! 64-player maps are fine but in certain parts of the map, I do feel slowdowns, and some bottlenecking.
