Season 5 needed changes.

So look, here's a list of what I think needs attention in season 5.  I get that it's already here, or in 1 week, so maybe it's just a list of things that if they aren't given attention the game will bleed even more players.

  • Hitreg
    • The hitreg in this game is so abysmally horrendous.  You shoot a man right in the gizzard, he doesn't die.  He never shoots you, 12,000,000,000,000 bullets instantly spawn into your brain in a picosecond.
  • Hitreg
    • I mean come on, I get behind cover, start reloading, still die.  How?  It even shows me the killed had no angle on me.  It's the god awful hitreg.
  • Hitreg
    • So hitreg is an issue because I'll shoot a person with nearly an entire mag, and deal 1 bullet worth of damage, then I die magically from someone who never shot me.  Clearly something isn't right here.
  • Map balance
    • Most of these maps suck.  Iberian and Cairo are about the only good maps in the game.  Since new maps have been released, the quality of maps like Libation Peak has improved due to comparison.  MANY maps contain exploitable areas or zones players can abuse to gain an advantage, and despite the solution being adding a kill volume to those zones... that fix is never implemented.  It's insane.
  • Weapon damage falloff
    • You know what makes shooting so boring?  My damage falling off a wall because I was 11 meters away instead of 10 meters away.  This makes it insanely annoying to predict how a gunfight will go, and leaves me nearly in the dark on why sometimes my chosen weapon is a god and sometimes absolute trash.  Say it with me; Exponential curve.  It's not even a no brainer on why that is a better answer gameplay wise.  I don't believe any excuse that it makes calculations more difficult because if the game can calculate a stepped graph it can calculate an exponential curve graph just as fast.  
  • Vehicle balance
    • High guys, it's me, little bird, and I'm here to destroy everything ever.  Literally.  The current little bird is so undeniably broken that it honestly should be considered to be removed due to how insanely broken it is.  The ATP?  Trash.  Literally don't use it like you should, because it will die in .02 seconds because it's vulnerable to EVERYTHING.  Thing is vulnerable to HMG, I mean come on.  Dirtbikes bounce funny off everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, so you try to drive one around, hit a tiny little bump, STOP, you're now sitting still oh no you died.  I could go on for every vehicle, LITERALLY every vehicle has at least one significant problem.
  • Cheaters
    • No, stop lying to me.  It is not "only 5% of games are actually affected."  Every match I play with someone with a CN name and a ping of 150 or greater is a cheater.  Admit it.  Using a VPN is against your ToS.  Call them what they are.  Admit you have a problem.  Right now, all I see is two liars instead of one.  It's literally 100% of games have a cheater.  I can quite literally document this, but I don't have the power to record or the will to create a 2 hours expose on how this game is so full of cheaters.
  • Consoles
    • Guys, all of us PC players can see the obvious, clear, smeared in a suspicious brown semi-solid writing on the wall.  Consoles have an unfair advantage over PC players.  99% of my netcode problems stem from a console player.  They miss, the game says "Oh, poor baby, let me fix that" and I die from a bullet that passed well over my head OVER A SECOND AGO.  Tired of this.
  • Hitreg
    • You know, this might also be tied to netcode, and is certainly tied to the advantage consoles get over PC.  But the hitreg is horrible.  It absolutely needs attention, because the game is nearly dead because it plays so poorly.
  • AA launchers
    • Look, we know how bad these things are.  Don't pretend we don't know either.  More air is shot down by dumb or aimguided munition, or even shot down with a javelin, than is shot down with the dedicated, actual tool for the job, anti-air launchers.  They need fixed.  Not just a buff, but we need a fix so these things will ACTUALLY lock on while staring directly at air vehicles.  You know how many times I've watched a rocket just plop on the ground?  How many times I've watched it not even try to go after the target?  Stupid thing will miss even if the enemy doesn't use flares, doesn't get to cover, doesn't do anything.  I'll accept a damage reduction so long as this trash gadget can actually land.
  • And last but not least, hitreg.
    • It's honestly so bad.  I hope this gets the point across.

So yea.  I mean, I want the game to be good, don't get me wrong.  I just also hate it right now and only play because every other current shooter is far worse.  Arrowhead went down the "We hate our players and will destroy any fun they have", DRG went woke.  CoD?  I laugh, haha.  Wardogs is a "Spend all your time grinding money to actually do what you want then get third partied in the middle of a fight by someone who was just camping in a bush and you lose everything haha" game and I'm not about that.  Siege?  I played that game for 4 years, not only am I burnt out on it, they made it trash by making it for the casuals.

  • Add to your list the network connection issues since the first S4 patch. 

    I spent many atime optimizing my fixed wireless connection for this pos game and while yes, there were some issues on my end which i was able to solve which helped, now since the last patch game ALWAYS has network connection issues, packet drops,  etc.

    it's a joke.

    Also, as soon as I see a China character player regardless to their ping, I automatically report them for cheating because it's almost ALWAYS China character name players that do the most suspicious behavior in this game.  

    I don't think the developers genuinely care about this game anymore.

    could have been the best battlefield game since battlefield 3, if not possibly the best battlefield game to date but nooooooooooooo.

    The cheaters are absolutely destroying this beautiful game. If I wanna go to a game for cheaters, I might as well go back to call of duty.
