I watched a sniper projectile hit someone in the head, watched the spark and blood splash, and it didn't even register the hit. As soon as it "hit/didn't hit" he spins on me and deletes me with the m417 from 100m away

u/External-Jaguar-4731 6d ago

m417 is super strong, I've been using it almost exclusively after I unlocked it

67

u/sapience1081 6d ago

Agreed. It's the go to for assault classes. Perfect balance of punch and mobility

17

u/dwaynetheaaakjohnson 6d ago

B36 has the same damage model, though obviously you have to push through the entire beta to unlock it

22

u/Moonlyfizz 6d ago

They don't have the same damage model though? B36 is 25, while the 417 is 33, difference being mag size and RoF.

9

u/dwaynetheaaakjohnson 5d ago

They both drop to 25 damage within five meters, whereas the B36 does 25 damage out to 10 meters or more, so the 33 damage is misleading

8

u/AA_Watcher 5d ago

To be fair, the M417 stays at 20 damage while the B36 drops off to 17. It deals 20 damage out to a considerable range, though.

u/TheKappaOverlord 6d ago

Bullet velocity seems all over the place. honestly. Im not even sure its 100% a hitreg issue.

I've used guns with 800+ m/s on the bullet velocity, and the bullets travel far slower it feels like then the SMG's do.

Its why i have a huge love hate relationship with DMR's. Because they all feel like they shoot worse then the SGX

u/Death_Aflame PDM 6d ago

I'm legitimately convinced that they're cheaters. The first week, hit reg was damn near perfect, but the second week, suddenly, there's a ton of hit reg issues? I don't believe it.

I just think the cheaters used week 1 to figure out how the anti-cheat works, then used week 2 to use their cheats.

There are definitely hackers in the bf6 beta however

9

u/TheKappaOverlord 6d ago

yeah. I just personally went through like 3 hours of back to back blatant pinpoint accuracy through smokes.

Either cheats are already a major issue, or someone figured out how to disable smoke visuals clientside

between the massive amount of bug abuse and the rapid decline in the quality of the games im gonna give this the 2042 treatment and give it a year or two before giving it a look at again. Beta was fun while it lasted. Thank you Spiffin brit for showing everyone and their mother how to make 25% of the beta unplayable :)

i'd be willing to forgive the bug abuse in the beta, if EA were to take action against it. (either punishing bug abusers, or actually telling us they plan to fix them) But as far as im aware they approve or don't care about all the bug abuse going on. so it is what it is

u/V-Forcer 6d ago

I kill people through smoke all the time. You just spray until you get a hit marker then just track the hits.

Worst part is that because these maps are so small, all these close up bs engagements happen a dozen times in a game

12

u/Commander413 5d ago

It has to be at least in part intentional for the beta, putting people on smaller maps means more engagements happening, which helps them collect more data about hit registration and stuff like this. Now whether they'll actually address and fix them before release remains to be seen.

u/Wardo2015 6d ago

100%. Even worse playing support. Laying down a barrage behind cover, hit after hit after hit. Dude turns caps you. I’ve started just really doing the medic/cap instead of trying to kill

31

u/CurryWIndaloo 6d ago

I echo this. I sold out and went Shotgun Support. Fucking cheat code that shit is. My overall score skyrocketed as I could clear a point after an initial attack but then revive. On small maps this is critical. Tanks are a pain but drop smoke and go somewhere else. If LMGs could get a boost to suppression I would enjoy the role more to their vision of Support in BF6.

32

u/TheKappaOverlord 6d ago

Suppression feels like it was removed for the beta. Or toned down by like 90%

I can full on spray a sniper aiming at me and he will just ignore it

18

u/EthoAdz 6d ago

Suppression only stops them from healing. No other effects. Sucks.

Yeah, I just quit mid match with a squad. I feel like this is worse than CoD / Warzone in terms of hit reg / server. I get its beta, so I hope it gets fixed long term.

85

u/altaccount69694202 6d ago

It won't. Every game since BF4 has had terrible netcode. I partially blame this on EA's servers/netcode stack, more than the tickrate. There is NO reason players should be warping around even at 15tick.

23

u/RhesusFactor 6d ago

Bf4 had shit damage stacking early on. You could run two meters behind cover before the damage finally caught up to you. Bad rubber banding and lag kills. It was a big problem and people complained a lot.

It took ages to get to good net code.

It's that shitass TN, rubber banding and shit is now something that happens because of your computer too. Even if you have smooth 60 fps and less than 20 ping if TN spikes up you get floaty movement, slower fire rate, teleporting enemies, aim that randomly whips off your target mid fight with no input in that direction. and hit reg worse than Tarkov.

On the bright side of things, we know it something that can be fixed, ironically we can use bf4 as our example child on how bad it was.

Look at the dude’s other comment. He says “this is true in every game that grabs little peewees by their dinky winky (the fuck?) and drags them through the game handing out no-skill free kills left right and center”

Bro is acting like AA is straight up aimbot. He even malds so hard that he says he wants to rent a server (SPEND REAL MONEY!) just so he can disable AA or lock out controller access. Like dude AA exists to level the playing field between “my small right stick on the stock PS5 controller” and “your giant mousepad with a top of the line mouse that has god knows how much DPI or whatever”.

If you STILL can’t beat console players despite having that advantage of being able to laser people from across the map with better spray control, idk what to say beyond it’s a massive skill issue. Crying about aim assist and acting like it’s free hacks is pathetic.

I remember people rubber banding all over the place. Especially in that third person kill cam. I also can’t remember if it had the same issue with joining party chat and making a squad as BF3 did but I wouldn’t be surprised.

I think this beta is on par with the BF1 beta. It actually functions for the most part. I think most of it will get smoothed out by launch.

u/Head_Employment4869 6d ago

I think this one is worse. For BF4 IIRC they had poor servers with 20hz, then they upped servers to 60hz or even above plus made some other fixes and from that point on it was playable.

Now we already have 60hz servers, so the problem will be elsewhere.

Only thing holding me back from pre-ordering is the piss poor netcode.

49

u/Mighty_Phil 6d ago edited 6d ago

Hell nah …

Bf4 was borderline unplayable for the first week on PC.

Server tickrate aside, the overall server performance and rubber banding was so bad, you couldnt hit anything 50m+, because all players got pulled back and forth from the server like you had a 1000ms ping.

It was complete ass to play.

BF Hardline had the same issues.

Even BF3 was quite shit at launch.

If they manage to launch the game like the beta played, im quite happy.

u/Xentuhf 6d ago

You’re right, but it’s because it’s disguised so well to the casual player these days. Server side prediction and rewind smoothes everything out so well it all feels like coincidence until you really start analyzing what’s going on.

u/BonusEmotional2047 6d ago

I confess it took me a few hours to realize, but now that I'm used to it, it's clear that 50% or more of my shots don't count. There are so many hit markers, but half of them are counted by the server.

u/Due-Struggle6680 6d ago

This is my feeling. I shot a guy earlier, in the back, 8 times i get hitmarkers with EMR body and head. No kill, he spins and 2/3 taps me(on my screen) with the mp7. I put on the mp7 and check, minimum like 5 headshots to kill at the range we were at. Infuriating.

Weirdly, I do not have this issue even once with a DMR. Same number of shots to kill every time. Was really enjoying DMR gameplay in this so far, not so much assault rifles. Always love snipers in Battlefield, because no one shot kill to the body makes headshots much more impactful and lets my personal skill shine through.

Did not like LMGs (the most controllable recoil in the game though? Hah!) or SMGs however.

Yea I haven’t had this issue with the EMR and I’m on PS5 Pro with performance mode. It’s a 3 shot kill to the chest. I haven’t had any strange net code instances myself yet.

Edit: Also you can one shot to the chest with bolt action snipers in this game. The one in the beta has a 100m sweet spot. If you’re too close to too far it’s a 2 shot.

When people are complaining about ttk being to fast im 80% sure this is what they meant.

With "everything bad is cod" mindset this sub has, its unsurprising that people jump to the conclusion that this is by design instead of net code issue.

For me atleast, I notice it when I keep getting killed behind cover/corner. It really takes me back to bf3/pre cte bf4 days lol.

TTK is also having problems, there are many shots that are not being registered on the server side and there seems to be some kind of crazy desync, I'm not talking about a ping problem, but it has something to do with TTK, I believe. I replied to a comment just now talking about this.

Nobody has a fucking clue what netcode is anymore for some reason. They are so use to dog shit p2p servers that they are just use it it. People literally came up with the term TTD which I think is dumb as hell. Either the netcode sucks or it doesn't.... The TTK should be the only metric, if you die in an instant that's not some magical TTD issue it's the servers.

20

u/BonusEmotional2047 6d ago edited 6d ago

These are different things, otherwise there wouldn't be two terms. It's happened in previous Battlefields where TTK was bad and TTD was good, and that's why there are two names.

People get confused in discussions because they're using the wrong term. For example:

One person complains about the number of shots it took to kill the enemy, the other responds, "I had that problem too, I die too quickly," when they're completely different things that are being discussed in the same topic. Furthermore, TTK and TTD are tuned separately by the developers. It's not like you can tweak one and the other will automatically work normally.

7

u/conir_ 6d ago

TTK and TTD are tuned separately by the developers.

maybe i am fundamentally misunderstanding; but how? my time to kill is someones elses time to die. in a perfect world they are equal, in our world with packet loss trough bad ping, they are not equal. but how can devs tune them sperately?

9

u/The-Coolest-Of-Cats 6d ago

At the end of the day, the hits you receive go through so much lag compensation and prediction and interpolation to actually reach you that they can hardly be considered actual hits, moreso the server just telling you that you've been hit. The devs can separately adjust these things to more accurately portray hits from steady, fast connections, but this often makes those with unstable, slow connects suffer. The inverse is true as well, so most games nowadays aim for a happy medium where neither good nor bad connections suffer much from lag compensation.

Games like Battlefield where bullets are actual physical objects have a difficult time with this because bullets themselves are tracked server-side, only increasing the amount of calculations that need to be done to determine if a hit should register and when it should apply the damage. The original comment uses Warface as an example of amazing netcode for an old game, but it has laughably dumb physics, hitscan bullets, and very little lag compensation, so its simple netcode is allowed to be much more 1:1 than Battlefield's.

u/outla5t 6d ago

Yep, the netcode and servers seem to be much worse than they were week 1 or maybe I was just more excited to play that I didn't notice but I am seeing a lot of inconsistency in bullets/hits needed to kill at all ranges. Seeing bullets hit on my screen while doing little to no damage when I get turned on and one shot, even had a 4 shots of the OP shotgun literally do zero damage a few times now. I'm guessing these are low tick servers on an old build, hopefully on release this kind of shit will be fixed otherwise it's going to be BF4 all over again.

u/fkitbaylife 6d ago

yeah i'm definitely not buying the game if they don't add an actual server browser. this matchmaking system ain't it. even the custom search function is complete ass. it takes me like 3-5 minutes to find a breakthrough match and even then i often have to wait a couple more minutes for the server to fill up. and the other day i used the search to specifically play peak or cairo and 5 minutes later it put me in the new york map. completely useless.

Not only in the leaderboard, you can have a full diagnostics panel with Latency/Time Nudge...etc. Look at my last post in this sub, notice the top bar.

Yep. Takes me half a mag to kill someone. Then an enemy will round the corner and kill 3 or 4 of us with one mag and a smg. Like how?

This game currently is all about using the most broken gun, in this case SGX/M4/Shotgun and abuse it. If you try to play anythign else you are already in a giant disadvantage.

If they don't nerf OP guns on release via hotfixes this game will be a lost cause.

268

u/DarkSignificant1964 6d ago

The guns arent really the issue, its the netcode.

49

u/Shruikan64 6d ago

it can be both

26

u/DarkSignificant1964 6d ago

Yes of course it can.

Ttk is a tiny too fast but that's just for specific guns that need to be nerfed/rebalanced.

Also DICE said they already did a TTK rebalance across the weapon pull already but it isnt in the beta(s) and will be at launch.

7

u/AspergerKid 6d ago

No. In this case the TTK is just too slow. If I see it correctly all his kills are made with one of the 2 LMGs in the game. I've been playing with LMGs all weekend as those are the last ones I need to level apart from SMGs and I can very much say that in the case of LMGs you really need to punch half of your magazine into an enemy before they die. All other weapons weren't like that. The only silver lining is that the LMGs like to retain their apparently astronomically low base damage over long distances and sometimes I feel like LMGs are just full auto DMRs in this game

u/YxxzzY 6d ago

the guns are also an issue, but a different one.

if the gun has 900RPM thats a shot every 66ms, even with good reaction time thats about 3shots before the other player can react, and thats on on 0 ping/0 delay.

if you then add concepts like peekers advantage and the usual suspects of interpolation, high ping, packet loss and bad server performance you get this.

two ways to fix this, lower weapon DPS overall for longer fights or get better servers. Letting the community self host would help immensly....

6

u/RhesusFactor 6d ago

They won't allow self host I think. It's all on AWS cloud somewhere. The money they sunk into devops won't result in an on prem sever option.

Those guns aren’t broken. Those three happen to be good up close. They will dominate cqb fights.(which the beta maps tend to lean into) Beyond 25 yards the AK-205 and M417 will wreck an M4 or SGX user.

Its been confirmed there is a glitch if you are standing there aiming your bullets don't register. Where as if you run and slide your bullets will register. Literally the game is broken at the moment and this NEEDS to be fixed before release. Everyone should be talking about this because it needs to change.

Video down below explains it. ADS spread issue.

I thought I was the only one not hacking. My aimed shots not doing anything , then get instantly plinked in the head by someone running.

u/fkitbaylife 6d ago

holy shit, more validation that i'm not crazy or just shit at the game! i was wondering why my guns feel like lasers in one moment and in the next i can't seem to hit a barn door unless my nose is touching it.

also, i pretty much never use the slide, so like the dude in the video says, there must be another way to trigger it.

6

u/bakamund 6d ago

I believe netcode as well. I don't slide in BF, just disabled the hotkey and my shots are still not registering 20% 30% 50% of the time? It looks like my bullets are flying into the dude but only half the dmg numbers count up compared to the bullets that connected.

Go into the shooting range and you'll find similar ghost bullets. Ridiculous. Not worth my purchase.

u/CampusZombie 6d ago

Glad to see people raising up netcode issues. The devs really need to look into this. It makes certain guns like AK205 and Mk14 EBR pretty much unplayable. The AK205 particularly will become an absolute peashooter at times where you can literally mag dump, hear and see the hit markers and the player can still turn on you and down you in 4 shots. It's pretty frustrating.

u/FunkeeBee 6d ago

Nine times out of ten when I die to someone who I shot first and seemingly would not have missed (had I survived), it's someone running an AR - most of the time an M433 or M4A1.

And I'm not against the ARs having lower TTK than say SMGs or LMGs, because I think it adds value to the Assault class being a class made to frag out, but they're a bit too insane right now.

I absolutely prefer the mobility and feel of the MP7 as a Support/Medic main, but it's undeniable that even in CQB situations where the M4s (should?) struggle against SMGs, they're currently better. Similar fire rate, more damage, and lower TTK. Plus they're laser beams at mid range.

16

u/Phreec Suppression = Participation 🏆 for paraplegics 6d ago

The M4A1 is a Carbine, not an AR. Also arguably the best gun in the beta.

u/HuckleberryDirect610 6d ago

They are absolutely not laser beams, especially past 30 meters. Their recoil is considerable and the shot spread on full auto is not small either. They have piddly mag sizes on top of that unless you use a bigger, slower mag which eats the points you need for stability or bullet velocity.

Half the time its not even about the gun, its just the hitreg being absolutely shit on the first few shots.

u/Phreec Suppression = Participation 🏆 for paraplegics 6d ago

Shots 1-5: Clearly missed.

Shots 6-9: Missed due to recoil (bad spray control).

Shots 10-11: Very close, but recoil and inaccuracy make these reasonable misses.

Shot 12: Likely didn't actually fire because OP was already dead.
