Appreciate the kind words ClanPsi1!

I'm Canadian. My prime minister is WAY worse. That was pretty much his entire campaign for half a year. -_-

I feel like that was just websites taking select youtube comments, of all things, and running with it for easy clicks. I think more people just hate the overall look and feel the trailer gave off.

It was never about the women, it was. About the unrealistic cosmetics, laughable action, claims of inclusion when in fact it was all a ruse to justify their new fortnite like micro transactions.

I'm pretty 50/50 about this new battlefield, on one side we get free content and dlcs with the removal of premium which is amazing because it will give this game longevity without splitting the community.

On the other end they have to milk us somehow with these ridiculous outlandish cosmetics to entice the kids and casuals to spend extra cash.

Time will tell how far dice will push these cosmetics, I feel they'll try to get away with as much as possible ignoring any historical accuracy with the excuse that they want to be inclusive and make the game fun.

Actually women werent on the front line other than to be slaughtered. The Germans would send women into the line of fire and when they tried to turn back or run away they would be shot, the Russians had similar practices, a lot of women died and many by the hands of their own people, it was sick really. Women on the other side of the spectrum were auxiliaries with main duties being in the medical tents and in the case of Japan some women auxiliaries would be tasked to do sexual "favours" for the men before battle. The British did not allow women in battle and neither did the Americans.

My biggest gripe with the woman in trailer is not just that she is a woman but because she is so overpowered that she seems to be more efficient than the men while having a prosthetic arm and wielding a WW2 automatic weapon, which has some of the worst recoil ever, as if she is holding an air rifle.

So do you think it's an insult that war video games trivialise the real harrowing events and suffering of soilders and civilians of both genders into entertainment for your boredom? Or is it just an insult because a cgi woman was depicted to be in the wrong place at the wrong time?

@DexSun

I am talking about the tag line son. Yeah lets tell the 6 million Jews and the hundreds of thousands of men that lost their lives in WW2 that you should forget what you learned in history class.

@Liqu1d

People are losing there s**t because of a woman character with a prosthetic arm was placed in a trailer therefore somehow disrespecting those who fought in ww2 and is changing history, imagine now what those people would say if they did a completely alt ww2 setting.

At least the cosmetics are optional, and perhaps unlockable through game play. A season pass or map packs however segregate players. And is it any wonder why its now like this with how much money games like overwatch and fortnight make through cosmetic purchases.

I do hope there is a way to turn off cosmetics in multiplayer for those that want a more authentic experience with the look of characters, that should keep everyone happy.

I'm glad you brought that up that Killzone had Dedicated servers. I remember the Yellow Dog Linux days of PS3, as well. EA use to do more Dedicated Servers for games but as time went on they would 'rent them out' and slowly the official servers would die down.

P2P Lag always had that magical thing (Gears 2 (Aak the shot gun) and Halo 2,3) fans know as host advantage. That alone allowed for lags switches, booting of others from games. ECT. (Though I admit, was the most fun I had when our team could beat cheaters. Man was that a good time)

I fully agree with you, the fact so much is working how it is has in a hard way compromised network/client security issue. I'll pick on COD for example where some assets are local and other are on server, between games and between even evolutions/iterations of the engines used.

@phil

Thank you for the reply i am glad others on here remember

Now back to the series x having games with the same frame rate as a 2005 xbox 360 but the masses thinking that is fine and next gen.

Starfield on series x native 780ishp fallout 3 xbox 360 720p both 30fps gaming has "grown so much"

Sadly we are not in large numbers and see mp/sp tech wise/cheater wise has gotten worse not better.

I hate to say it about Starfield I'd have too look at reports from way back when. I swear to god they said it was going to launch with Creation Kit 2 (I worked with 1 alot in Skyrim mods in the block based aka cell based structure) Back then it was great, but for the life of me I don't know how a Studio like Obsidian can make a game same as Bethesda but with less bugs and bull shit. (Fallout Veg and Outer Worlds) Not that it was with out bugs but when a 3rd party does better with your own tech... I find an issue... with it all.

Frame rate stuff I only understand from two points, design and marketing. On the Design part yes back in the day 30FPS was I swear almost more common then now days. It was not a design compromise to keep it at 30 as the hardware and the way the game was being 'displayed' (Key thing there) was as impactful. Now days I feel the Marketing side wants a 4K trailer running likely rendered on a Xbox or PS system with little text saying (Oh wit was on a PC that no one is able to afford... of course teasing there a bit.)

I do understand that Starfield is a 'simulated world' where like every item you drop is there, for like forever... cool, that is not too new now days and design wise, is kind of a dumb thing.... who cares how many carrots you can collect... is it cool sure, makes for good PR in some ways. Lack of tangible game play is the issue. I can't take credit for this but a buddy of mine worked in advertising and I shit you not at Fast food. They would make wax and even 3D print now and then post render foods you would get, just for you as the client at a Burger King to not be given as you where sold on. (((( He did not work for them FYI.. but others)))

Issue with gaming as you are saying is too much is on the 'presentation.' It does not sell like it use too, that type of advertising. Most of it is word of mouth, who my friends tell me is a good game or not, what my friends are playing. Then comes the reviews.

Its dumb that our next gen systems feel like we gone all but up a step that we already went down two to three on. Take Uncharted 4 for example 30FPS SP and 60 MP. That I can deal with, and that was a PS4 game.

I do at times dis Xbox a lot, but come on, they still have yet to make there own damn game engine. Slipstream failed heavily, where Sony and most of their own studios have tech they made for the games they are trying to build. I am unsure how Xbox is again now saying the 'next' system will be the best ever. Sure it will be duh? Tech changes and grows, but I never seen a system use it so poorly. (I blame alot on the bloated Xbox OS FYI)
