8+ months post launch we're almost done with core development on this game we sold everyone for a full AAA price 8+ months ago.
Lots of great changes, especially to the XP/scoring system, but holy hell does it seem obvious that the game was released way, way too early and that the past 8+ months are all of us suffering the consequences of DICE once again rushing an incomplete, unfinished game out the door too early.
Looking forward to S1 patchnotes to see if we can get some exciting new content to go along with core development being almost finished, but still expecting disappointment here given that we know there's apparently a whopping 1 total map coming.
Also, the game desperately needs persistent servers with map rotations or something. The silence on this topic is unacceptable, either tell us it's never happening so we can stop begging (and tell us why), or tell us that it's in the plans.
So... Not season 1.
Next Bugfix patch in July.
When does season 1 start? August?

Again no mention of persistent servers or a server browser option for AoW. Also they remove air vehicles while not touching the Condor and the Hind. I swear to God Dice is trying to do the opposite the majority of the community is asking them.

Hmm, I've played it yesterday, but the netcode seems to be worse for me. I have more servers now where my bullets don't register and when that happens, enemy bullets come all at once, so it is always combined with instant deaths.
When this issue occurs, I need a whole magazin of bullets to kill an enemy, even with enemies I see from behind and relatively close that ain't moving. But the other way around is that I hear shooting and a fraction of a second later I hear one impact and I'm dead (no snipers).
I'm quite sure that is has something to do with ping compensation. My ping is always below 10ms (glass fiber) and my guess is that it happens when there are high ping players in the field somewhere.
- 4 years ago@GuiltyNL Yep the netcode is horrific and probably due to dice throwing anyone in any server

The changes of the visibility are very bad.
I cant see enemys hiding in the mountains because they are behind a piece of grass.
Why? Seriously. It was fine, why did you change that?
Aim assist seems to be completely absent on ps5 now.

The fact that the netcode is off for me is becoming very annoying. Checked it again with BFV and there all was good (that is off also many times).
It is now so bad, that I'm only getting insa killed and I can empty my whole gun on someones head without getting a kill.
My ping stays between 7 and 11, the Network Graph stuff doesn't give me anything, all is just fine. But it is just not playable. Especially the instant-deaths are very annoying.

Having the same problem and it got MUCH worse after the latest patch (1.0.0) which should have IMPROVED the netcode/hitreg according to the changelog.
There is definitely something broken. Us low ping players (in game it displays 11ms - 13ms) seem to get punished by half the bullets not registering even if they are on target (as can be seen if you play back the recorded video).
But for some reason the enemies don't have the problem as they can kill you with one hit even for weapons that require at least 3 to kill.- 4 years ago
@DuaneDibbley Yes, the low ping 'penalty' issue as been a problem since BF4. In BF4 it was also so bad. It became better in BF1 and BFV, but from time to time it was also bad there, but now in BF2042 after the 'patch' it is insane. What troubles me the most is that they never have listened to the players. And now finally in BF2042 it starts to backfire.
So I do not have much faith in it, but I still hope that they put their arrogance aside and start listening to their players.But my guess is that I get a ban again because I share my frustration. :D
