Newgrounds was the Wild West and I’m glad my parents didn’t know better because I think of their flash games and cartoons almost daily

Yep that looks like shit alright

Switching to your 5th pistol is faster than reloading! Some of the cosmetic slop recently is hilariously bad.

u/NPRdude 10h ago edited 6h ago

It's really too bad, because as a one off gag this would be hilarious. But when it's clearly part of a larger use of AI design it's not funny anymore.

u/MrDrSirLord 6h ago

Yeah they absolutely could have made a switching to your secondary joke but instead it's just slop

Reminds me of a pirate with several flintlocks on their bandolier.

u/TeamWorkTom 5h ago

That's actually a little different considering each one of those is a literal single shot and based on history took about 3 minutes to reload.

That's just me and my EDC. Don't worry about it.

Is switching to your side are instead of reloading still faster when you only have side arms?

u/BigWormsFather 7h ago

Easier than reloading.

u/GhostWalkk 11h ago

I normally try to find a reason to give the developers a break since they’re human beings with a job and need money too, but this is bad. Anyone involved in creating and green lighting this should find a different job.

EA is never worthy of the benefit of the doubt

u/makemebad48 11h ago

I prefer the one kitted out with Ruger 10/22 magazines, I love my tacticool 22s as much as the next guy but let's simmer down a bit.

u/ARMCHA1RGENERAL 9800X3D / RTX 4080 / 32GB DDR5 / 240 Hz / 1440p 9h ago

I dont have the game, but I saw that posted elsewhere.

10/22s rock, this confirms their place as the next military battle rifle.

My fault for buying onto nostalgia marketing and actually buying that piece of shit of a game.

u/KimuraXrain 12h ago

Battlefield 6 has the worst cosmetics and battle pass from any game ive ever seen (and I refuse to spend even 1$ on cosmetic it still pissis me off) 

24

u/RUBSUMLOTION 9800X3D | RTX 5080 10h ago

I dont really see the point in buying skins that you cant see. I understand in 3rd person games but a FPS? Why?

8

u/msivoryishort 7700x // 9060xt 9h ago

90% of the cosmetics in this game look the same to me too

u/overdosingOnPie1313 9h ago

Honestly that's a damn good question.

1

u/etheran123 R7 9700x | RTX 4080S | 32GB DDR5 9h ago

I completely agree but games like COD have proven that plenty of people care. I dont really get it, at least in something like counterstrike the gun takes up a fair bit of the screen so skins can be seen from the players perspective.

I think the people who care about these, care more about showing off to other players rather than their own enjoyment.

u/nthpwr 13700k/3060 TI/64GB@3200MHz 5h ago

I dont really see the point in buying skins.

u/RUBSUMLOTION 9800X3D | RTX 5080 5h ago

I rarely do it but only in 3rd person games. Fortnite i bought a few back in the day, Arc raiders i bought a couple etc.

u/The_Angry_Jerk 9h ago

Their seasonal limited time packs are also only sold once and then are unavailable for ever. They had some good cosmetics but they were unavailable to use at launch and then removed instead of being unlocked. Their business model is baffling.

u/KindofJello 2h ago

overreacting, season 1-4 bp ware excellent and much better than competition (cod)

u/Level69Troll 8h ago

Submitted a Steam refund request, lets see what happens. Use of AI isnt listed on the store page at all but its very obvious.

u/adkenna RX 6700XT | Ryzen 5600 | 16GB DDR4 10h ago

If they made it all free maybe they could justify it, but charging for this slop is just scummy.

Is there any AAA multiplayer shooter that is not filled with macrotransation nowadays ?

Too bad it’s becoming filled with griefers and hackers instead

You’re gonna find people griefing or trying to hack in any shooter these days lol

u/Gizshot 3h ago

these days? its always been that way. i remember people killing you for taking the vehicle they were obviously entitled to way back in battlefield vietnam.

1

u/SaltyMotor8549 3h ago

Unless they have some super invasive anti cheat system there is bound to be cheaters sooner or later. People suck and always have to ruin a good thing

u/Suitable_Tadpole4870 Ryzen 7 5700X / Radeon 7700XT 5h ago

Not sure why you’re being downvoted like you aren’t right lmao

u/AuthoritariWrongdoer 7700X | 9070XT | 32GB DDR5 5600mhz | 1440p 6h ago

It's so obvious that they didn't even bother to give them anything more than a passing glance before adding them to the game.

One pistol for every season

When Bf6 released skins in first releases, like ghost recon skin i sad it was ai and i got downvoted to hell… they were using ai since the beginning!

1

u/Blackops606 6h ago

What’s sad is that it’s probably the higher ups specifically telling them to use AI. Then instead of checking anything, they just ship it. This isn’t the first time people have found bad uses of AI in DICE’s work.

u/testfire10 4h ago

If you dummies would stop buying cosmetics and getting so enamored with cosmetic changes to the game, buff/nerf weapons and just play the fucking game, we wouldn’t be in this position.

In the case of Battlefield, they used to be called DLCs.

u/TragicTester034 RX 7800 XT | 7600X 54m ago

I remember the days of buying a single premium pass for the whole game for like £20-£30 ish

Now you get the pleasure of spending double that on pro battle passes over the course of the year

u/ohsinboi 3h ago

Where have you been for the last 8 years

u/jacksp666 I7 4790, 1660 Super, 16gb RAM 5h ago

Always has been like that. A way to cram more paid shit each "season"

u/BlackOutDrunkJesus 5700x3D - 4070S - 32GB 5h ago

Not always, but for the last 8-10 years or so

u/ShockaGang 4h ago

Yeah maybe 12 years at this point

u/imPluR420 3h ago

Its funny people think you can just throw a fully AI modeled and rigged character into a game like this. Clearly people just love to call everything AI these days. Also the skin with 5 pistols is literally called "Sidearm Bandit" so.

u/SilentSorcery 1h ago

It seems like someone prompted AI to make concept art but the guys responsible for asset creation never bothered to do any QA.

Glad I'm permanently banned from that game. Well worth it.

Bf6 is dead… can’t find a match of conquest without bots… been uninstalled for months now

u/Coom-guy 9h ago

Maybe you can’t find a match because you uninstalled the game. No need to thank me if I solved your issue

Play daily, never once had an issue in NA west or east. Have been playing since day 1, never had an issue then to now.

You're talking out of your ass.

u/Improvingmyself971 4h ago

Same this sub is just full of babies saying this game is dead lmao

u/404_No_User_Found_2 4h ago

You think this is bad? Go take a look at the actual Battlefield sub

I shit you not, swear on my life, I have actually had somebody over there explain to me that the main menu "lacks emotional depth" and that they felt like the characters "have no narrative progression"

I'm still not sure whether they were a troll or not, but if they were, it was one of the most convincing ones I've ever seen

-1

u/IJustdontgiveadam i5, geforce gtx 1070, 16gb ddr4 6h ago

Don’t know what to tell you. It’s the reality I’ve dealt with. It’s why it’s been uninstalled for about a month now
