This update is yet another disappointment for the loyal part of the community that’s still left here.
Honestly, the moment I saw the Instagram video I already knew that combining Metro and Locker — in the hands of developers coming from Call of Duty — would end up like Redacted in BF2042.
The community was asking for another large map alongside Contaminated — which, by the way, is probably the best attempt at a large-scale map so far in my opinion — but instead we got another CoD-style meat grinder.
As for the hit registration, it’s actually even worse than before. It’s a complete disaster.
One positive thing I can mention is at least the Strix set, where the skins finally look realistic and well done.
Another positive change is that hardcore mode has finally been placed in a dedicated playlist. The game is currently in such a rough state that hardcore is basically the only mode where you at least know that an enemy will die in one or two shots.
Because of that, I’d like to ask the developers to make hardcore an official mode, using the creator code: MPHD.
It's worse than Redacted. At least that had a bit of character. The netcode is appalling. I'm dying over and over again in a single frame without even the slightest chance of reacting. That is not fun at all.
