game just doesn't feel like battlefield used to feel, the gunplay, the movement the operators, lack of weapon customizations and the poor balance decisions, primarily the helicopters for example, the game feels like a bad cod clone, but even cod dilivers a better "battlefield" experience at some moments, personally it makes me worried about the future of Battlefield in general.

1. Rao got changed recently so that if you hack something it reveals everything around it within 10m for a bit. This includes players, objects and vehicles, so you can hack a door in those buildings with automatic doors and it will reveal any enemies and gadgets in 10m. 2. Thermal optics on gunner seats need to be unlocked by getting kills with machine guns in a tank, then can be equipped by the driver for their gunners.

[@eliascortez787]

That map was golden lobed playing rush on that map

[@williambrown8534]

I remember when BF3 did map packs centered around play types, i.e. close quarters, armored kill, etc. and that brought cool equipment, weapons, vehicles etc. that focused on that play types. Would love to see that again. Especially something like close quarters with the enhanced destruction would be awesome!

I would really love some changes to the gunplay. The G 428 is such a powerful rifle yet with its barely existent recoil it just feels like a toy gun. Same goes for so many other weapons. Some slight changes to the recoil patterns would likely help a lot. Especially when you consider the stupid ranges you can simply full auto someone at. That would also mean that you could decrease the spread on the weapons, a feature that I never really liked to begin with

[@welsh-cymru1588]

Agree the guns & gunplay in bf3 felt real the way they would kick up and you had to control it with the analog stick or burst fire , in this game you can just full auto with no recoil , feels like your shooting airsoft guns in this game

[@moritzrossbroich]

@@welsh-cymru1588 Exactly

[@jortepap]

Yeah spread change was terrible🤮 Just give is some more recoil!! Then it would be balanced already

[@jordank2028]

I agree, but not to the extent of cod where the entire screen shakes and recoil is way overdone.

[@PDXCustomPCS]

Don't worry. They patched allllll the other guns before this. 4+ months ago I would take an RPT with a Thermal and pick off whole squads from 70m+. Headshots from 150m often. The RM68 should have been considered a sniper and AK24 was terrorism. G428 will be patched and be crap next. Lol 😆

Yeah the numbers aren't very high and you could argue whether or not that's sustainable for DICE to continue supporting it, but there's still a good number of players enjoying the game.

Maybe it's just me, but it feels like they are constantly playing catch up and I don't see the essence we all love manifesting with this title.

Just got into this game over the weekend and honestly, I'm shocked as to how much I'm enjoying it. Not my favorite BF game for sure, but a solid one, nonetheless. Also, I would love to see some BF4 stuff get added. Siege of Shanghai and Flood Zone (I think that was the name at least) would be great. Honestly my big thing about this game as far as maps go is the general lack of destruction, personality, and most importantly leval-lutions. As much as I have mixed feelings about Siege, the main building going down was such an insanely cinematic moment. I still remember a time where I had to jump off the building and into a friendly chopper only moments before it went down. That's one thing about 2042, it just doesn't really try to aim for those moments.
