EA's shills damage controlled it by saying the Portal mode is the equivalent to real servers. There's no server browser, OG portal never had selectable high server tick either btw, as will be the case on portal 2.0.

Engagement optimised match making.
It's designed to keep you playing as long as it can by drop feeding you wins/winning streaks inbetween loses.

They've based their entire system around it. To the point of where real servers can't exist because of it. So it's definitely there and the whole game is dependent on it now. Just wait 2 weeks post launch and no one will be able to deny what happened.

No server browser just means that at some point in the future, unless if there is a dedicated team of autists who can reverse engineer shit, the game won't be playable again despite 3 and 4 still being played to this day.
Thanks DICE, one step forward, two steps back.

I'm sure this game won't pull a marvels and start placing your team against bots when you go on loss streaks to keep you from quitting.

Modern multiplayer games suck so much fucking ass it's unreal.

That would require there being something to work with. BF4 is getting Warsaw Revamped because the system that was already there could be lifted into something that could be stringed together with a third party solution. The same could probably be done with BF3 and BF1 most likely.

They killed the most fool proof way of the game's longevity, so this decision over time will kill it. It will kill off the long term playerbase. You can't see the effects of this until it actually happens. This is something that COD players will never understand because they just move onto the next game, they're never there for the long term.

It was even technically a standard until BFV released. Battlefield 1 was the last game to actually have a rental server program with proper persistent servers. Dice have been fumbling as a studio since that shitshow of a game occurred in regards to V. So suddenly 2016 standards are 'old standards' now. That's artificially the case too, the most likely answer to all of this is that they gutted their server infrastructure to save on costs.

No, zoomers love EOMM. You have to understand, these kids can't play games, and they don't want to learn, they want their mandatory 50% winrate because that's a lot better than they'd do if you put them in a Quake 3 game.

The goal is to make games with a limited lifespan, server browsers were a mistake. Nothing the suits hate more than the idea of consumers playing the old product instead of getting excited for new product.

No, Portal is just server browser but better.

>it doesn't have selectable tickrate because 2042 and 6 run on 60 by default. Previous games has selectable only cause Dice added 60 tickrate as an option post launch

I don't understand why you fucks keep making up this fake rumor that BF6 has no server browser.

But i would argue that the people who NEED their win rates are never going to be the people that play the game long term, they're just trying to get a quick fix before they get distracted by the new Call of Duty, as it always the case in Battlefield and then we see those players leave completely and the game actually gets more tolerable after that. On servers no one gave a shit about any of that. Obviously everyone tried to win but ensuring that you've won at 1 round in a night was never on most people's agenda, other than trying their best to win. It's only ever punishing if you get into a squad who don't actually work together as a team, or your whole team are just not coordinating properly and not even trying and are going more concerned about their K/D.

I don't know why you think long term players are the goal.

Again, it's BETTER if you play for a week. You still had to buy the game, and EA don't need to run servers to keep you around.

You are still of the mentality that these games are made by fans who want something fun to play, instead of soulless suits looking for maximum profit. The perfect MP title for a suit is a game that sells a billion copies on launch, and a day later everyone is bored of it and looking for the next big release.

Doesn't even matter because all the maps are the same tiny close quarters garbage, there's barely any difference between Cairo and the Iberian map and there are 3 more confirmed close quarters urban maps that will also be the exact same, don't need a server browser when all the maps are indistinguishable

That's truly the truth of the matter. Pic rel may not be relevant for now, but there will be a moment EA aims to kill BF4 off and eventually the others with it. Luckily on PC the modding community will have saved it from EA in the non too distant future. But i imagine that EA don't like that they have to keep these old servers up just because they're still still very popular. They don't look at BF6 in the way that a BF3 or BF4 player may see it, as a game that will replace the older ones and keep them playing the SAME game they like for who knows how long, maybe a decade. BF6 has likely moved onto the status of COD where every game will be discarded after the new one comes out. That's what i make of the lack of hosting servers.

I suspect 3 years is the average life span if Dice happen to put out enough maps, but giving the game 5 years of life span is extremely generous. Still probably generous at 3. That's how an effect of no server browser will be.

Not only a retarded system in which you don't get to play the maps you want because these servers are not persistent thus forcing you to leave, but also because their anti cheat has already been defeated. Thus they killed the most reliable method of dealing with cheaters, community moderation. It's the only deterrent in reality. I'm unsure if map voting still exists, but if a rotation isn't present then it's likely not a thing either.

Which is retarded because when you're on that this team will win 10000% side the game is boring as fuck and when on the losing side it's boring as fuck.

When it should say attack or defender because it only plays one side and then matchmakes again.
Fucking retarded.

This is boring for you because you've played real games and know how fantastic a close game where you lose/win is. Zoomers do not have this experience. Every game for them is a sweep one way or the other, teams are always stacked to ensure sweeps.

The acronyms are fancy way of saying matchmaking instances (not servers) that supposedly puts players matched on similar skill level. Any real BF player ignored this crap in all games and went straight for the server browser because no one liked that system. Barely anyone cared about being pitted against people who were actually above your skill level. In fact, i spent most of my time in Battlefield competing with people that were kicking my ass on servers i knew they'd be on. That was purely out of choice. A test for myself to get better. Rather then preferring to steam roll matches all the time. But i also played more relaxed servers too, the ultimate problem here is choice.
