Thoughts of a first time BF player.

After years of playing Call of Duty and finding myself wanting something more than watching cartoon skins run across my screen, I decided to try Battlefield 6.

BF6 looks amazing. The destruction you can do in this game, the different vehicles, and the map sizes have made me very happy. It’s a wonderful contrast to the small kill, die, and repeat maps of COD.

However, this game when it comes to shooting has never felt clean for me. I play on PS5 lan cable and it always felt, idk, disconnected. Between gadgets not works, kills not being registered, and many others it’s a game I find myself wanting more.

Now COD definitely has its own issues. There is no denying that. However, the general run and kill aspect I have to give it to COD. I find myself much more frustrated with hit registration or how a weapon can feel great one day and like a pea shooter the next.

To make a long story short. The things that make a FPS game fun are such a variable in Battlefield that it holds it back from its full potential.

Prepare to get downvoted to hell my guy

Not that I care, but like other people might lol

Idk, dudes saying what an increasingly large number of people here are sayiny/clipping:

Hit reg is broken as hell, whether you get the kill or the player youve already dumped a mag into gets it seems predetermined, limb multipliers are abysmal, etc etc

The gunplay is not good in this game

Try with crossplay off.

Agree. I generally like the game, but the gunplay, the most important part for me, is frustrating.

Does that mean that we won’t be friends anymore? You know if I thought they weren’t my friends I just don’t think I could bear it.

I keep hearing if you turn it off the desync is much better but it just turned into bot lobbies and long waits.

This ⬆️

Yeah, it’s a little time dependent with it off so you mostly get full lobbies after like 16-17 when folks get home from work/school or whatever. There should be a server browser coming soon that should thankfully fix the lobbies. Hopefully at least.

make sure you're using perf mode if you're not atm

What is perf mode?

You need to try BF1. It's all atmosphere, it feels like being an extra in saving private Ryan or something

I get one shot after filling them with bullets all the time and I always think they had a shotgun and I look at the ticker and it's a fucking kord or something

That sounds amazing! I’ll have to try it out thank you.
