Bit strong, but it could happen.<br />
The list of bugs grows day by day, and there&#8217;s a lot of them.<br />
They make great games, but games that are buggy as hell.<br />
The launch week of 1943 is nothing new, lots of bugs, lots of problems, but DICE are blaming most of it on external resources beyond their control.<br />
I doubt very much that they really are beyond their control, I strongly believe these problems are very much within their control, and are basicaly down to bugs in the code.<br />
Packet Loss, how is this down to the data center? I&#8217;m pretty friggin sure it&#8217;s the only game that has this problem for the data center, so it&#8217;s therefore down to the game right?<br />
They (DICE) have ties to Multiplay.co.uk and are most likely using them as server hosts. And seeing as no other official BF Game had packet loss at the weekend, it&#8217;s certainly going to be be net code.<br />
Probably same net code as battlefield bad comapany. That still kicks players for packet loss.<br />
Then there&#8217;s lag, lots of it. Do you see people &#8220;warp&#8221; around the maps, aircraft disappear like they are in the Bermuda Triangle? Only to reappear on the other side of the map?<br />
This is lag, and it&#8217;s pretty bad, not so bad as it was at Christmas for BFBC, but it&#8217;s not good either.<br />
Comms fail constantly, they work for a few minutes then stop until you quit and reload the game.</p>
<p>So far we have MAJOR packet loss, lag, and no working comms. If you think thats bad, there are some people who cant even play at all. Then there&#8217;s the Aussies, and New Zealanders who DONT have any local severs, they have to travel over the Pacific to play, and now THATS LAG.<br />
There&#8217;s graphical glitches, like black boxes appearing and disappearing, aircraft targets not following enemies, images getting stuck in the middle of you view, and images hanging around that just dont belong there.<br />
Lets not forget that you cant view your profile, and probably never will. It was supposed to take a couple of days to fix profiles, but 5 days later, yep, still broken.<br />
Some people cant login to EA server, this means they cant even run the tutorial let alone play on a live &#8220;Battlefield&#8221;.<br />
Then there&#8217;s the laughable team &#8220;inbalance&#8221; as I call it, wtf is going on there? 24 divided by 2, simple maths really, so why does&#8217;nt team &#8220;imbalance&#8221; work?<br />
And dont even bother with the Private Match, that is a joke, you spend a few minutes in the lobby getting everyone together, then as soon as you join, half the people get kicked from the server, leaving you with 10vs2, and no one else can join.</p>
<p>In summary, this game is good, but the bugs make it by far the worst game I&#8217;ve played.<br />
If DICE dont sort this out, people will remember and not buy the next Battlefield game, and that will sting them badly.<br />
Personally, I no longer care that they worked hard over the weekend fixing bugs, why? Because the bugs are still there.<br />
I dont care if DICE go under after this, all I care about is getting a game that works, this does, but you wont be playing for long, because you cant, it wont let you.<br />
