Is it me.or is.the progression in this season utterly slow? Like on other seasons the first stages went fast, now I played 4 rounds and not even made stage 1? [CM - Edited title for clarity]

Well, it doesn't matter, they made the game unplayable again for.pc players, improved the console aimbot (very much noticable), so fun is gone for good now, what a mess they made, again

I stand corrected, it is 38% less. Previously you started at 2500, now at 6500 per token for the XP mission. Right off the bat, that's a 38% reduction.......I was on double XP with the 20% boost, had 34K for the round and got 4 tokens, because at some point in my first few rounds, it was enough to move the slider to 7K per token.I am on BP Level 4.This is the most hilarious progression stuff I have ever seen in a game. Like someone thought this was a good idea and actually implemented it in a multi-million dollar title, 2 years into the game's lifecycle. Even after the change, if all the rewards are a flat 4 for each tier, thats 36 + the bonus 10. So 46 per week. If you did that for 16 weeks, you would have 736 tokens. That leaves 414, which doesn't seem bad, but those are achieved thru the XP mission that starts at 6500 and increases at the same interval as previous seasons. Based on the average mission XP for the entire season, it will take you over 9,300,000 XP to achieve those 414. That is basically 600K XP every week for 16 weeks or 85K per day, every day, for 112 days. Since you get a daily 10K bonus for the first round of the day, you technically have to earn 75K per day playing. On non-2XP days, a normal player earns about 15K per round. So it will take you 5 rounds per day to get T1. The average rounds are 20 mins, so that's an hour and 40 minutes per day every day for those 112 days (186 hours of playtime).

I'm going to start off with the new map is great.The battle pass on the other hand is absolutely horrible. Just because the devs want to drag out a season for a longer period of time (I have no idea why they need to), doesn't mean they need to make it take WAY longer to level it up. I have T1 all 5 season battle passes so far and I would say it was fair and could be completed in an appropriate amount of time. It's already bad enough that an extra month has been tacked on to this season when we get the same amount of content (or less) as the previous 5 seasons.Just because you want it to be longer doesn't mean the players should be punished and make it longer to progress. I mean it'll be weeks now before I get the first new weapon (vhx- D3). I think it should be reverted as this takes away from the enjoyment of the game. It won't keep players playing for longer they'll just get tired of it quicker. I was going to say I'll probably get lvl 100 on the pass and then drop out for the season, but I may just get the last new weapon and then drop as cosmetics are not worth this amount of grinding, it's just too much. Most players will stop playing by week 6-8.Also, can anyone give me a serious answer as to why these seasons are the way they are? I feel season 3 was the height (although they've all been lackluster). By this I mean: 1 map, 2-4 weapons, 1 vehicle, A gadget, and of course just cosmetics, and then the season lasts 12-18 weeks. Why is this all we receive? Why can't they do more/better?

PC player too. This player was definitely running a hack and the shinny new anti-cheat was no where to be found.Are you certain they were hacking or just were being revived? If I'm in a squad and we stick together we regularly go in the 40s+ and maybe 1 or 2 deaths (one of my squamates is very good, although is well over 1000 hours, and gets in the 60s-80s, especially on the new map if you get a good flank). That doesn't necessarily excuse it, but the number of deaths someone has isn't indicative of them not being killed, just that they weren't revived.

@Dutchie-Mario they did something to the point system, I noticed that . have not played in a while and dont think I'm interested anymore, I dont like how they try to control the way we play.

What macros would you be referring to that equals snapping to targets like the aim assist/aimbot that console players have?

@xtyfxp44iial I assume the idea is that you pay into your battlepass progression. Either to unlock the first 20 tiers immediately or to get an additional 20% XP bonus.

After a VERY long break of 2042 I might wanna try it again, love to try out the new G428. But who am I kidding before even downloading the new season I knew it would be just far enough into the battlepass that i'll be burned out by all the 2042 BS that I won't even get to try it.
It's just the idea that they have this stuff specifically designed in such a way to maximize the victims that fall for this trap, it's infuriating. Including making this stuff slightly OP so by the time the majority get's the stuff it's nerfed.

Not sure if you are just trolling or maybe you play on console. But there are definitely no macros on PC that are

a) legal and
b) built into the game like auto aim for console is

I think I have some macro HW running on my keyboard (that I could use to record keystrokes and play that back by the press of 2 buttons). But that does definitely NOT help aiming in any way (not even use that function at all anymore for other purposes as my IDE that I use for coding has macro recording that is more flexible and convenient than what my keyboard offers)

I'm now at 27 or 28 and already having 8250 / point. So it might be somewhere 60-80k / point when getting over 80...

Did you buy the first 20 tier unlock??
Because I am at 8250 pts per XP level and only at battlepass 8.
Charging $20 for fast track might have been understandable if they had more than 1 map.
DLCs used to be $15 and come with 4-5 maps but a ton of new weapons.

@ForumUser There are macros on pc and xbox(with the right hardware)
did not say they are legal what ever you mean by legal as they are not breaking the law using them.
