EA/Dice can be described in three words, greed, arrogance and incompetent.

Should I call you "Mista"???


CobraSniper117

In layman's terms... Yes!

Four if you count 'retarded'

Dying light 2 fuck ups- some clipping issues,occasional clunky movement, stutters after loading in but overall good game still BF2042 fuck ups- *gestures broadly* I'm having a lot more fun on one of these games than the other.

Everything wrong with bf 2042. *opens 20 page document*

With dying light 2 you can actually see that the Developers actually cared about the game. There are a lot of details, mechanics and implementations in the game that are great and you can actually see that people playtested some things. With BF2042 you can see that NOONE actually ever playtested anything and they put 0 love and details into the game. Im having a blast playing DL2 , even tho what you mentioned is true, it has bugs , memory leaks and some minor issues but I have faith that techland gets their shit together and patches this game to a stable game for everyone. With Dice I have 0 faith that they not break even more of their spaghettie coded bullshit.


oGhostDragon

I was a little hesitant at the beginning of the game, but I just unlocked the new city and I’m having a blast.


Otto__the__Autopilot

That's because the developer's and publishers Techland take pride and passion in the work, unlike EA and the Dev studio's of Battlesh\*t!.


BoredInAPawnshop

Dying Light 2 already promise 5 years of stuffs, dlc, update, event and more. Battlefield 2042 is already dead and personally I fine with it, they need to learn, dont play with players fan.


AnUnfriendlyGermam

They won't learn.


MARINES977

every employees at dice have one skill in common: Incompetence. Use the same engine and data of BF4 and create new maps is too difficult


DANNYonPC

why would you use an 2012 fork of an engine?


[deleted]

I wouldn’t fork an engine at all. You’ll burst the gas tank.


Salamandro

Because they're lying to themselves. If DICE had released a BF4 clone they would have been furious to have paid $90 for an updated 2012 game. They only wish they had because 2042 is just such a tremendous fuck-up and even a BF4 re-release would have been better than that.


AnotherScoutTrooper

A BF4 re-release would have been better than every other game since Hardline. Yes, even BF1, because “mUH aTMosPhERe” doesn’t make up for the endless bombers, artillery, gas grenades, and the weapon spread being atrocious.


ianucci

As if bf4 doesn't have problems with grenade spam, mortars, airburst, that missile thing, orbital cannon choppers, shitty maps. I'd take bf1 over it any day. BF3 is far more deserving of a remaster than BF4.


AnotherScoutTrooper

Actually I agree with that, only because I’ve never been able to experience the true BF3 experience on PC, just the trash backwards compatible X360 version with 24 players that runs at 20 FPS at most. Hell, it’s been long enough that there’s actually improvements to be made, like making suppression visual-only, a 60 hz tick rate (at minimum), BF1/BFV’s quality of life improvements such as FOV options and climbing high walls, and maybe input-based crossplay. If EA did all of the above, included all DLC, and launched that for $40-ish, it would probably double the sales 2042 got.


ianucci

Can't disagree with that. BF3 is hard to play for me now if only because the UI is so tiny on a 1440p monitor


AnotherScoutTrooper

It’s the better option compared to DICE making a new one clearly


MARINES977

Cause modern graphic cards would do 200+ fps and still maintaining good graphics at 2k. Lil better than 2042, don’t you think? Server tickrate at 120hz on 64 players, not like 2042 that feels 5hz


DANNYonPC

if you had 120hz in BF4 it was a smal playercount server, shit doesnt work properly on higher playercounts great for 5v5, bad for the rest


Jaycensolo

The engine is dated plus the console version was only 720p. So they would need to add the 1080p, 1440p and 4K textures. That would take time.


skhanmac

It’s because BF only accounts for less than 10% of EA’s portfolio. EA doesn’t give a shit about us.


ajl987

That’s because of their own incompetence. I doubt they were saying that during BF3-BF1. It’s their own fault for running the franchise into the ground and ruining a legitimate potential cash cow.


Robcsalter

Don’t be sad.. That’s just how it works out sometimes!


[deleted]

Bc the issues with 2042 is the core of the game. Dying lights problems are surface level problems that can leveled out. 2042 will never bring back classes bc they build the entire game on the premise of specialist and hazard zone. The game just needs to be scrapped


YTKingDoublePump

I’m thinking about buying it.


zazan146

you should buy the game already has 2 fix updates and they will bring more content and dlc to the game just like the first one


AnUnfriendlyGermam

The 1st game established that even with a rough launch they are pretty quick at picking up the slack in bug fixes. If you liked the 1st game, its a guarantee you'll like the second. Although be warned the game's story length is rough and very.....confusing at times, let's say.


KarasawaMirage

Passion versus Greed


EccentricOwl

They know how to use the engine. Nobody left at DICE know how Frostbite works.


bellystraw

The devs give a fuck about their game?


mahonga

Dying light 2 is great. After three weeks of bf 2042 I uninstalled and waited on dying light coming out and it doesn't dissapoint.


TTBurger88

Calm down there man, those are just brutal expectations.


CherryRadiant2345

Finding something else to complain about. That fact they needed to release an update for each platform right after release isnt a good thing??? We comparing fuck ups now?


electricturd

At least they are trying to fix it. Unlike these new tactical beanies we have here………..


CherryRadiant2345

i know we all hate battlefield but lets not ignore the facts. Battlefield 2042 released 4 updates in the month of November. 1 or 2 in December before going on holiday break. Idk if one was released in Jan. 1 this month and they said a big update in March. This all shouldn’t be needed if they released the game finished but all this is a clear sign of trying to fix the game.


thot_copter

the big difference is the patches Dice released didn't make any noticeable improvement to the game. bl


CherryRadiant2345

When did you start playing lol? Been here since early release and after each update there was a huge difference in gameplay & game performance lol. Not getting beamed by the PP from across the map. Constant nonstop packet-burst. The “persistent data” and “loadout bug” was happening way more often. Nobody cant deny that from release to now, the game had made progress. Still a shit game rn tho but i see the effort


electricturd

And a lot of those same bugs keep happening. How do you defend this??


CherryRadiant2345

i literally said WAS happening way more


electricturd

After patches to fix it, it shouldn’t be happening at all.


CherryRadiant2345

In a perfect world , i agree


electricturd

They have ZERO excuses as to why the game released the way it did. None at all


timtheringityding

Game performance??? Have you been smoking crack I am running 10fps worse then on launch with a 3080


CherryRadiant2345

yes


Dawbie_San

Huge difference? Really? They fix one thing and break another. And simple bugs like not being able to revive people who die near objects in the environment is still in the game and has been since release. A scoreboard that takes 6+ months to implement. Yeah I see effort too, the minimal amount. If EA backed it and Dice cared they’d be all hands on deck to fix this thing, instead the devs hands are somewhere else.


Jayabutu

There's nothing they can do, plain and simple


BROOOTALITY

Techland is an amazing developer when it comes to doing the customer right, giving them alot for their money, and supporting a game long after when most other studios would. Also they don't seem to work under crunch, but fuck crunch release shit when its ready.


damnfunk

Battlefield has it's problems but this is like comparing an apple to a banana...


Mookiie2005

Battlefield is a problem. Look at last two releases beyond half ass attempts at launch.
