Latest Update Introduced Multiple Gameplay and UI Issues
So I've been playing a bit since yesterday's update, and it's really not great. The number of additional bugs is just staggering, and I'm not even on PS5 (for those who don't know, the optics are completely screwed on PS5 at the moment). The delay in getting kills notification, getting the wrong optics when going in the range, the mini map issues, the wrong setup being displayed in game, the range setup not showing anymore... Oh, and waiting for contracts that never come (seriously, it works for some, not for others... It's probably bugged).
All of this is coming on top of the bugs introduced previously. Well, maybe the medics show properly now when you're down, or would if the mini map didn't just disappear. But really, it's been an accumulation of many, many bugs without fixes for a long while now.
And then there's all the stuff that just isn't moving forward. Sure, the new sights are welcome (if you're not on PS5), but that was a problem that had been identified in the first couple of weeks after release. What about reviewing the assault class? Rebalancing Eastwood? Reworking AA?
It was clear at release that EA spent a ton of money to get this game out. It's been equally clear the live service has been run on the cheap since then. And this simply can't go on. And you can't just say "oh we're delaying season 5 to put in some more work", because you already pulled that for season 2, and people could not tell where the extra time went.
You need to start investing, or this game will collapse. As for me, after about 11 months of playing BF6 close to daily, I'm happy to play a lot more Wardogs now. Not because it's an alternative to the BF formula, it's a very different, uncompromising beast, and BF would be much more my schtick. But at least those devs seem to know what they're doing and actually care about their players.
