On the subject of portal in BF6,
It is a ghost town. Look at the browser. Nothing but random tat that no one is playing.
They’ve pushed people away from portal.
Why have portal in BF6 at all if you just want to make it so hard to put an experience together and then punish people for even trying to use it?
Included bots, removed bots, added SOME bots back, penalise the use of bots.
Didn’t give us game mode templates for us to pick up, tweak and use.
If portal was the same as 2042’s portal, the browser would be buzzing with multiple servers.
We would be browsing through populated servers offering all sorts of game modes, people having fun.
Hardcore servers, persistent servers running maps in rotation, same people in the server match after match, servers with tweaked settings to make them feel different and fun (we can’t even do that because we have almost NONE of the settings we had in 2042!), coded servers by people making use of the rules editor).
Portal would be ALIVE right now.
But they killed it in every way.
Now you have to use an overly complicated process where you’re forced to use godot (dev kit) to even try and get ONE MAP running!
What the hell has happened?!
How on earth did we get here?!
The face palm and disappointment is REAL.
