[@Nick930]

So.. It's 8 months later, and as expected, this game is dying out. Hoping the new Battlefield is better. 2042 has been improved but still far behind BFV.

[@desureaptitude168]

Don't you mean "Far behind BF4" ;)

[@NicholasBrakespear]

The most important difference: I bought Battlebit for £12. I launched Battlebit. I jumped into a 128 player game. It worked. There was no lag. Everything worked. Glorious chaos, intense competition and hilarious moments of camaraderie... and all of it just worked.

[@Darlexis]

amen

[@Grebogoborp]

And also jumping into that match took all of one button. No store prompts no dumb menus just a single click on the player count you wanted and like a 10 second queue

[@kevinmiller5051]

Dude the worst thing about BF 2042 to me was the hit registration. I have never complained about hit reg in ANY game but it was awful in BF 2042.

Also the high frame rates on a PC equivalent to an old dusty shoe. Underrated with the price of new hardware

[@skie6282]

Tbh for me im getting a bit if a wait and the occasional lag since its taken off. But id rather have that over waiting 20 minutes for 1 server in 2042 and it being half bots

[@wizardmon1337]

"Vaulting animations too slow in battlebit" The vaulting animations are dependent on how heavy your loadout is, using your running speed modifier to determine their speed - as well as the size of what your vaulting/mounting. A medic with a SMG and pistol wearing little to no armor, no helmet and no backpack will run faster, vault faster, and even climb ropes faster than a support wearing heavy armor and carrying a LMG.

The new COD generation that didnt play the first Call of Duty games ( 1&2 ) are used to a soldier with full fucking gear running faster than fucking Usain Bolt.

[@zcubedmusic]

You can also currently just crouch jump through a lot of normal sized windows without vaulting, which bypasses the animation and just jumps you forward, but we will see what they end up doing with those mechanics. Make sure to split your vault / jump hotkeys to avoid accidentally vaulting too.

[@ReelRai]

Bigger team means you have to start thinking about paying salaries, which brings deadlines, monetization etc. Battlebit is as great as is it precicely because it was done by a small team out of love for the genre.

[@ReelRai]

@@firebird4491 And they're made because they need to pay salaries to all the devs etc. Yes, they also want to make a profit but no matter how good hearted a developement team, they're not going to pay the salary of a team of 100 people out of their pockets with unlimited deadlines and no guarantee of getting their money back.

[@TenjinZekken]

Big agree with the majority of opinions here. The less your project is just a passion project, the less control you have over your own project. This only worked out for them them they have no deadlines. Most AAA devs will absolutely make better games given infinite resources. The problem I'd that they aren't. They are given a finite budget, not decided by them, while having to deal with deadlines, investors, and in general, appeasing people other than themselves. AAA failures are hardly a problem or talent. They don't get where they are Today if they have a lack of passion or skill, both of which are necessary in AAA game dev. However when you work for a big publisher, while you have access to more money, you also have way more limitations over all compared to indie devs.

The biggest difference is: I bought bf2042 for 90€ and couldn't play it for months. I bought battlebit for 15€ and it worked like a charm. No Shop that tells me to buy stuff even though the Game ain't working. No "only in Battlefield" stuff. No "we have Levolutions." In Battlebit you blow everything into pieces. The one time the whole nuclear plant crashed down while I was hanging on the rappel rope waiting to be deployed while my Pilot maniacly laughs blasting fortunate son was the most battlefield like moment I had in years.

[@Seibuzza]

dont forget to mention this is an early access title. it will release more content and polish the game over time

[@Stinkyremy]

Battlebit proves that gameplay over graphics is all that matters in video games.

[@anteshell]

That's false. It works in some contexts such as competitive war games like these two, but it absolutely would not work in others. In many games, graphics are not only utilized as the visualization for the action, but rather is part of the story telling and creating mood. The story of, let's say The Last of Us for example, would not be the same with Roblox graphics and would not have nearly the same impact as the story and mood itself is not grafted around utilizing low-poly graphics. In games like BF and COD, specifically the multiplayer component, the action is number one and that kind of gameplay loop lends itself well over less realistic graphic design. But this works the other way too. Minecraft would not be the same game if it had high-poly photorealistic graphics. The gameplay loop is specifically designed around blocks and would not work well in realistic environments as that would set hugely different expectations for almost all the gameplay elements.

[@gianttacogod]

DayZ arma mod which became PUBG was immensely popular, trash graphics. CSGO, TF2, all dated.

I think an important aspect to remember about Battlebit is that it was originally envisioned as a more hardcore sim like Arma or Squad rather than a more casual FPS like Battlefield. It was adapted to be a sort of diet simulator, which is why you don't have stuff like jets since the Army doesn't use jets

[@Nick930]

Certainly explains the bandages, squad leader only beacons, low ttk, and the need to combine mags. I'm curious if they end up adding in a "hardcore mode" and a "casual mode" to appeal to both gameplay styles

[@rexex345]

@@Darlexis I notice with quite a few battlefields recently, the sound design is actually kinda poor, it's just dolled up in a lipstick on pig fashion. It's so focused on "sounding nice" that it misses some vital details that are actually felt more. Actually an example that was noted about guns like the P90, the bullet casings are also modelled to come out of their gun accurate position, so the P90 has its exhaust and casings come out of the bottom since that's the ejection port. You could also extend this to the graphics, sure battlefield looks gorgeous, but it's also cluttered, and often in ways that end up feeling really bad to play, this is then countered by them raising the contrast, but this too creates its own clutter.

I think battlebits relatively weak vehicles, lack of attack helis and jets are actually positives, keeping the focus on the infantry (that being said vehicles can still do quite well in the right hands)

[@ImDaRealBoi]

They didn't want a vehicle meta, and I think they did alright with the balancing atm. I need more hours on vehicles tho

[@skie6282]

As a vehicle player i think it's jussstt enough to satisfy me. You get big xp for transporting, a good pilot is rare so you will be liked, a good gun crew is still good. So it makes it ok. I wish the land vehicles were a little less floaty and sensitive but whatever

[@F3N01]

They managed to keep vehicles impactful without being overbearing. A good LAV can tear up infantry, but one or two good tandem rockets and it's gone in an instant, similar with the tanks but with a bit more bulk. A good helicopter pilot isn't racking up 300-400 kills in a match unlike in Battlefield either but helping move lots of people, so people can still have fun on the ground. Plus no jets makes it easier on helicopters and ground vehicles, as a good jet pilot in Battlefield is practically unkillable, except against another good jet pilot.

[@SanarySeggnete]

It's weak till everyone around you are either not engineer or forget explosion charge ... Oh wait, there is one brave guy with C4, go for it!!! And... the LAV got him... never mind. Those unique moments like that made Battlebit a fun game to play.

Battlefield has spawn beacons as well. The concept isn't necessarily new or unique to games like squad. The idea of only the SL placing them down was initially in Battlefield 2142.

[@iTomBass]

@@Nick930 I more meant it as the fact that you mentioned spawns were limited more in battlebit... but didn't mention this aspect of spawning which arguably plays a larger role in Battlebit than Spawn beacons in BF due to not being able to spawn on contested objectives.

[@Nick930]

Battlefield 2042 allows players to spawn on contested objectives, battlebit does not. That was the point of bringing up the topic. Yes, there are spawn beacons in BOTH games, but battlebit is obviously more limited here, and yes, it slows the pacing down in a weird way.

[@ProjectFraz]

​@Nick930 but I think you still kinda miss the (rally) point here. Battlebits spawns are alittle more limited so it makes the squad leader rally point more important than the recons spawn beacon in battlefield.

[@Goocsh]

@@Nick930kinda missed his mark I think. Spawn becons are one of the largest influences on a game of conquest for example. Having 2 different enemy squads spawning on the edge of a map all game in your home spawn, may win a game. Hence why he asked why it wasn’t mentioned.

It was the first time i had fun in a MP game in a long time. Now sadly though i just get sniped from hundreds of meters away by the P90, when i first played, there was a lot of new players and they had the same weapon as me, and i who just play the game for a few matches got a huge disadvantage now, because of how higher unlocks are just better.

My biggest gripe with the game's larger maps is that the vehicle spawning system seems to be a little too lean, and it's really easy to end up on a base with zero vehicles in range and can look forward to 400m run to the next objective. Assuming you can go straight for it and it's not a map with deep ravines/cliffs that might require you to run even longer to reach it. I wish they would consider adopting a system more closer to Planetside2. Where you spend vehicle points at fixed vehicle spawning stations. Which if you think about it. Is not so far from the resupply system that BattleBit currently uses. At least in Planetside you can always spawn a vehicle if none are near.

Battlefiled 2042 < BattleBit < Battlefield 4

[@natesdum]

The vehicles are very weak on purpose, the devs are avoiding vehicle metas at all costs because they are just a worse game. 90% of the players will be infantry, not in vehicles, so therefore the vehicles should be relatively weaker to make the overall game experience more enjoyable.

[@Nick930]

Choppers are impossible to use offensively atm. Its fine if they want to make them weak, but at least make them usable

[@FavoriteHoney]

@@Nick930 The devs have mentioned they aren't satisfied with how the vehicles are handled atm I imagine they'll be giving vehicles their own major update

[@natesdum]

@@Nick930 ah fair enough, now that I think about it I haven't ever seen a helicopter do anything other than transport people

Yup. I tried many times with the lil bird cause i love those in games. But i couldnt kill anyone in battlebit with it without getting shot out super fast

[@SeudXe]

You didn't compare the small details like how ammo management works, Different types of reloads to conserve ammo, being able to pick up magazines, how classes work in detail, buddy dragging system, and proximity voice chat.

[@misteraxelk]

When I bought 2042 in Dec 2022, I thought that this specialist thing was just wrong. But with the reintroduction of classes, if you ask me "For the next BF, would you rather have specialists (like we have right now) or default soldiers" I would probably be happy with both choices. The worst thing is that some medics would get snipers and just camp miles away from the action, being completely useless. But other than that, I really enjoy being able to pick whatever weapon I want for my classes. For example, I really loved the BC2 medics with LMGs, so I do like to run medics with LMGs. So, I'm really enjoying 2042 right now. Tried one of the closed betas of Battlebit and while it was fun, I can't see any reason to spend 15 bucks for a BF-like game when I have an actual Battlefield to play already. Still, impressive for an indie game and kudos to the dev(s).

LOL finished the video, and shouted "YESSSS!" when you said "...this comparison demonstrates the importance of the core game design over visual effects". I mean come on, we're getting a fan-made multi-mission campaign for Thief: The Dark Project - precisely for this reason.

[@Duvstep910]

with regards to battlebit not having parachutes; I've never seen real military personnel parachute out of a blackhawk so it does make sense to rappel out or wait till the chopper lands

[@Ghost.2G]

Dude you need to understand that battlebit is made by 3 people and still in beta

[@Nick930]

I stated at the beginning that one is a small indie project, and the other is a massive big budget game. And i reiterate this at the end, concluding that at the end of the day, solid gameplay is more important than visual design.

[@alex_5830]

😂Well, in terms of gameplay, Battlebit takes the cake

[@gerindoom]

You missed the crafting walls of all clases and the rally point for the squad lead.

[@Nick930]

Rally point for squad lead is a battlefield thing. But yeah. I wish i had mentioned the wall building. I dont find it all that useful. But occassionally its nice to use for defending

[@SheyDeath]

@@Nick930 It is if everything around you is getting destroyed and with majority of maps that have big open spaces, it helps with pushes and rally points (but I get what you're saying)

[@gerindoom]

@@Nick930 Rally point was for the sniper in battlefield i remember, and the crafting of walls you can use it to enter high buildings or jump high walls as defending yourself.

[@gamophyte]

I loaded up 2042 after a long while, like a couple days ago, and I was put off by the look crate-ness of it all. But whatever, I load in. My settings are gone, and so had to set them back up for some reason. I alt-tabbed out and tried to go back, and the frickin alt tab bug is still present!! WTF that's been there since launch! I immediately realized I've been missing nothing and uninstalled.

[@Colonel1233]

sorry but specialists shooting each other, I dont consider it as Battelfield

[@gamingonpotatolaptops1665]

Fun fact : battlebit is more battlefield then battlefield itself

[@perjalananwaktu7181]

It feels like just yesterday that EA took down battlefield Mobile due to being unable to deliver an immersive gameplay experience since the dev team was too focused on constrained graphics as well as struggling with the new game engine they were trying to implement. then came battlebit which felt like a breath of relief to fans.

[@MisterOwling]

battle bit needs sound engineering mostly for when there's a lot of action. + i cant hear from where sounds come from

[@fourohsevenfishing]

one of them looks really shitty and the other one is BattleBit

[@Magicbeatz_YT]

if 2042 looks shitty then idk what to tell you, just biased

[@BeardedWolfKing]

Thats why i really think we developed too fast in the graphics department. Its almost always the priority by these companies rather than having an immersive and actually playable game. Who knows how much crap we couldve put in open world games like gta or red dead if the graphics were just a tad bit less. Imagine how much they couldve put in there with less storage space, easier to just PLAY without anything having to load long or crash, time and money saved and makes these devs be more gameplay focused, etc.

[@Dufoth]

Battle bit is made to run on 10 year old graphics cards giving anyone the opportunity to play. More people, Fuller maps, more games. I think they should port over to the PS4.

[@eezz7822]

Let’s make games that drive down the newest tech… that makes sense.

[@exohunter3822]

I feel like battlebit is way more readable due to the simple graphics, imo visibility is over all better in that game😊

[@monstergamers653]

you should do a video on "the finals"

[@yoshin6465]

that battlebit 50cal is CRAZY sound design

[@poika22]

Ramping up the bass doesn't make for good sound design just like turning up the bass doesn't make for good speakers/headphones.

[@highofftap7073]

i think battlebit is doing great stuff but it is still a little too arcady. Though i do mostly only play milsims and tac shooters and haven't played battlefield since 3. I'm excited cause theyre planning to make a more hardcore gamemode though. so far its very impressive!

[@guilhermef.cabral8252]

The bad graphics also make the game lag and run better, I feel like more effects can make it better, similarly to Minecraft simple graphics but it's an particles fast with many atmospherics effects

[@noahdavidson1343]

I think the main selling points for battle bit are: Cheap, proximity VC, more cod like gunplay, launch and join a game no bs or ingame shop.

[@YDG666]

Also devs said they won't add jets and BB doesn't have shotguns like BF and they also won't add it.

[@oldlifeorig5028]

Why don't you show us in-battle audio comparison? It's a HUGE battlebit advantage

[@FavoriteHoney]

imo you could've waited until the game was out of early access before making this video because by then battlebit will have a lot more features and changes made to it I hope you come back to revisit battlebit and make an updated comparison

[@Nick930]

An early access title can take YEARS to fully release. Besides... battlefield is basically early access too :P

[@Eagles_Eye]

Honestly about the graphigs I played t for 30 hours now and you actually don’t notice it because you’re too busy actually enjoying the gameplay

[@OneRedKraken]

I hope they make vehicles less floaty. So I can stop feeling like I'm a cruise liner captain when driving a small ATV.

[@runek100]

I am really amazed, how they brought balance to casual and hardcore shooter. I never played anything like that. It is so rewarding and fun. I bought it for 15 dollars expecting nothing, and I got best fps experience since csgo.

[@louisryan5815]

Why did you show a clip of you getting sniped out of the pilot seat in a heli and a clip of you getting snuck up on by 4 guys with c4 when trying to say the vehicles are a bit weak? Neither clips were particularly demonstrative of such

[@Nick930]

Because you can't run custom servers or solo matches to test these assets outside of a full server. And theres very few full servers playing on modes/maps with vehicles available. I only had like... 4 clips where i even had a chance to play in a tank and the footage just wasnt clean enough to show where the damage had come from. Looking forward to battlebit adding in vehicles to that shooting range to do a more proper test without having to dodge 200 other players

I kinda compare Battlebit Remastered to the animated movie Hoodwinked. It may not have the best graphics but it is complimented by the sheer amount of fun

Also. Battlebit is infantry focused they want to avoid vehicles become too OP like in any battlefield game.
