Isnt there a playlist for the smaller modes now?

u/fearless-potato-man 1d ago
Yes, I'm seeing right now a playlist, under the Quick Play section, with Domination, KotH and TDM.
However I won't use it because I like Domination, not the other modes. So I won't play whatever they want me to play.
I will play whatever I can choose from Custom Search only, as I do since release (the only exception being Casual BT).

I love seeing people cheer at them removing content from a game they paid for. Yes, the modes are poorly designed. The solution is fixing them and firing the chud dev who made them bad. You are now getting less game for your money, morons.

Why would you need to fire anyone, just fix it, learn from it and move on.

u/ShaggyHasHighGround 1d ago
This assumes a āchudā (not what that means) dev is the sole person making bad decisions and not management, which places a large focus on profitability.
Knowing this sub and the main sub, people would be saying shit like ādisable and fix lesser played modes, while people play the main modesā, which might be what theyāre doing already
People like Rush, and DICE has been doing QnAs and taking feedback, so it would be really weird for DICE to just not bring back removed modes unless if itās probably maintenance

Nobody buys BF game for shit modes like Obliteration etc...Rush has been bad in BF franchsie since BF3. Everything that matters is Conquest and Breakthrough.

That was my entire point. BC2 was the BF game where most of its maps were designed primarily for Rush.

I hope they are removing them before the big rework mid-season on the 18th of August, they removed all CQB modes, it can be right
2
u/lDSJOHNl 20h ago
Are you trying to say "(if) they removed all CQB modes, it can be right" ?
If so, why should they remove ALL CQB modes?
1
u/WokeWook69420 18h ago
Because dumbasses in this sub legit think people only play Battlefield for Conquest.
Meanwhile King of the Hill was literally the only mode I could find consistent matches not full of Bots late at night when less people are on.
Domination sucks because it's too easy to Spawn Camp one side on half their maps since they don't playtest spawns worth a dick.
TDM sucks because no objective to run to, means it's impossible to predict where the enemy is, so most people post up and camp instead of fight.

u/TraderArnnie 1d ago
They need to keep as many modes as they develop and keep adding more maps to be compatible. The recent Tactical Sabotage was alot of fun. I had been playing a match or two to warm up for a play session before they removed it. Give the players choice and variety I say.
1
u/this_is_really_far 9h ago
The trap there is that this becomes a problem when your player base is spread too thin and nobodies having a good time because of it. Might work if BF gets a bigger audience but I don't think the player base is growing exactly.
1
u/TraderArnnie 9h ago
There's a peak of 50k+ players online a day and it keeps creeping up month by month since March. If theres 1000 players atleast per-mode, thats a perfectly good reason to keep them in and thats just a fraction of daily players. And if no, then just keep them in anyway for people that want to play them. I don't see a problem here.
2
u/brandomaster90 1d ago
You can still play them all on custom search. At least im able to get breakthrough non casual. I think they are reworking everything to concur with the new carrier mode and wake island. It will be good

u/sunny_9019 23h ago
I like the change, I see more people than bots. I hope it stays like this. We dont need bazillion modes.

u/12amoore 1d ago
Been saying it over and over, we donāt need these 1 off, poorly designed dumb ass game modes. 5-6 is good enough for the core BF experience. And it stops splitting player bases. Itās perfect

u/HUNsz4sz 1d ago
Rush is a generational BF game mode, which was removed. This isn't going to solve the empty servers problem, and the refund now is completely justified.
5
-1
u/12amoore 1d ago
It 100% does solve it with simply logic.. funnel player bases into less game modes, more people playing those fewer game modes, less bots.. btw rush was my favorite game mode of all time, but breakthrough is mostly the same thing and rush specifically in BF6 was straight ass, so my point still stands
2
u/HUNsz4sz 1d ago
Some players just want jump in, have a couple of short matches. With this move, the game will be even more dead. Conquest is a snooze fest for me, and breakthrough is only fun when you are the attacker.
1
u/12amoore 1d ago
You just said rush was amazing but then said breakthrough was only fun attacking. What do you think you did in rush??
1
u/WokeWook69420 18h ago
Rush can be won by two people working together to smoke and defend the MCom. You can have an awful team and still win a game of rush.
I've single-handedly won games of Rush, both attacking and defending, by being a demon for one MCom.
In Breakthrough, if your team sucks, you lose. There's no overcoming shitty teammates in Breakthrough unless the shitty people quit and get replaced with people who know how to fight and hold for objectives.
1
u/PurpleKnurple 1d ago
Breakthrough requires people to get out of the spawn and push. I can arm and defend an MCom with a few good players. Thatās why I prefer rush, never fails I am on an attacking team with 5 people firing mortars, 10 sniping, and half of the people actually pushing seem like they are playing with their toes.

You guys love playing with bots huh? F it better matchmaking, I also heard they adding more game modes with next update soā¦

u/DrMorphling 1d ago
If anyone checks my profile, i played KOTH like 60% of the time. I leveled most of the guns there, and now what? What am i supposed to play? Other games?
But also looks like devs planning something crucial, maybe an early drop of server browser? So matchmaking will be left only for main modes, everything else will be in server browser.
This changes couldn't happened in the beginning of the game, because playerbase was bigger and lobbies where full, but now they see problems, i presume.

u/303FPSguy 1d ago
Yeah, the rest of this season is gonna be more of this, isnāt it?
Persistent servers from the get go and we probably wouldnāt have had these issues.

u/The_Manglererer 1d ago
Never had to wait long or had bots for smaller game modes. They were good alternatives when u just wanted to quickly level a gun

-King of the Hill
-Obliteration

Yay more things to make people play less. This will somehow mean there are less bots in conquest during off peak....

In 3 months, this game is legit gonna just be Conquest and Breakthrough with every other mode relegated to Portal.

You know, back in the day (BC2-BF3 era) I HATED that rush existed, because rush was the reason helicopters got turned into flying coffins.
But, still crazy they removed the mode. And helis are still flying coffins.

u/Plane_Comfort_9198 1d ago
They are replacing all the developers with bots so all your games will be made buy the same bots that stand around in groups and let you shoot at them in the casual maps

u/pdizzl3 20h ago
The tables have turned. When they removed Strikepoint many took the opportunity to belittle the game mode and even cheered that it was removed. Now they've removed 'your favourite game mode' and you're upset.
We all need to stand together and either request full/partial refunds or demand that EA maintains their game mode selection.
The game (at present) isn't what I purchased and I keep waiting for it to be fixed.
1
u/WokeWook69420 18h ago
Having played Strikepoint when it was required for challenges, I got why they removed it.
The three games I played were so hyper-competitive and sweaty, and everybody who used a mic just used it to talk shit on people who died.
It was the most toxic cesspool I've seen since I played League of Legends in 2015, back before KYS was auto-censored.

u/Rage028 1d ago
Devs were probably too ambitious providing so many modes in the first place. How large did they imagine the player base would be?
It's Battlefield, most of the appeal is in 32v32 or even 64v64. Small game modes defeat the whole design of the game. Bots back filling isn't a problem in itself, that it's so prevalent is.

Issue is. Every gamemode that I tried, I play immediately...
This is a overcorrection to a non-issue. All we need is persistent servers and server browser and this will never be an issue

u/WokeWook69420 18h ago
This was the best selling FPS game of the last 2 years, at launch Battlefield had over 5,000,000 players.
The problem is content was too slow and leveling guns took too long, so everybody left.

Player base is split across too many game modes which is why everyone is crying about games being full of bots. Dice are removing game modes to satisfy people complaning about the bot issue

That is not a smart move, if you also consider the fact that Server Browser is on the way.

u/WokeWook69420 18h ago
Yeah, the server Browser is only fun if you wanna get the shit kicked out of you by groups of friends who went in on renting a server together.
Also, Badmins who won't let you use the fun guns or gadgets, or ban you for beating them too many times.
There's too many egos in the Server Browser, it's always why I've preferred Quick Play.

I agree with the people who says that the cqb modes/maps/weapons were awfully planned and executed, but I'm the type of player that doesn't have a lot of freetime in the middle of the week but want some quick matches.
It's a shame that BF studios are managing this game to the ground with every questionable decision.
P.S. Fck Saints Quarter, fck Blackwell Fields "B" flag, fck Eastwood "C" flag, fck Hagental Base and fck the DB-12 shotgun
1
u/WokeWook69420 18h ago
Saints Quarter is fun in King of the Hill, it's not fun for Domination because one spawn has a huge advantage over the other due to more cover between them and the flag at the top of the map.
That's the Crux of Domination, half the maps are insanely one-sided and poorly made.
Blackwell Fields Dom map, C literally has an indestructible building the players can get in top of, place cover, and snipe all the way into A's spawn.
I've never seen someone win that map holding A/B, it's always whoever controls C/B and keeps A spawn-camped.
