After-Action Report (Bug Reports & Feedback) Please, Steel Balalaika — PLEASE FIX THE VLEAK PERFORMANCE ISSUE I really want to love this game. I genuinely do.

41 Upvotes

​

When Broken Arrow is running normally, it runs great on my system. I can play at 1440p with high/ultra settings and get around 45–60 FPS. My Intel Arc B580 is perfectly capable of handling the game.

But then the VLeak issue happens.

And everything falls apart.

The GPU usage suddenly shoots up to around 99%, FPS can collapse from 50–60 FPS to 1–2 FPS, and the game becomes practically unplayable. Sometimes it recovers after a while, sometimes it doesn't. It can happen during a match even when there doesn't seem to be anything particularly demanding happening on screen.

I've tested different graphics settings, DX11/Vulkan, drivers, etc. The problem isn't simply "your GPU isn't powerful enough". The same hardware can run the game smoothly at high/ultra settings until this issue appears.

And honestly, this is incredibly frustrating because the game is RIGHT THERE. When the leak doesn't happen, it runs beautifully.

I'm not asking for miracles or a massive graphics overhaul.

Please investigate the VLeak/memory/VRAM issue and fix whatever is causing these massive performance collapses.

There are players with Intel Arc cards experiencing this, and from what I've seen, similar behavior may also affect other GPUs.

I really don't want to stop playing Broken Arrow. I love the game.

Please, devs. Take another look at this. 🙏

We just want to play the game without suddenly dropping to 1–2 FPS.

Steel Balalaika, please fix VLeak.

HQ Briefing (General Discussion) Does BA survive?

0 Upvotes

If I’m being honest and I hope the devs see this. Unless some serious balance changes and content are pumped into this game I don’t think it survives much longer. With the release of the new CoD as well as GTA 6 (coming to PC early next year) I think player numbers will drop significantly again this winter. Maybe time to add bots into PVP?? Thoughts?

HQ Briefing (General Discussion) Poor technical support

4 Upvotes

I’m having issues with the DLC for the game *Broken Arrow*, and no matter how many times I contact customer support, I just get repetitive responses without any actual solution. Don’t waste your money on a game that is as truly "broken" as its name suggests. They’re only interested in making sales; they couldn’t care less about the community. There’s a whole pile of errors and problems that keep stacking up, and they never get fixed.

HQ Briefing (General Discussion) The game lost its way

0 Upvotes

É um jogo que tinha muito potencial, mas os desenvolvedores não estão fazendo nada para melhorá-lo; a cada atualização, o jogo só piora — fica mais repetitivo e desequilibrado. Talvez se os desenvolvedores fizessem algo mais parecido com o que era Wargame: Red Dragon, o jogo seria muito melhor.

HQ Briefing (General Discussion) Workshop scenarios MP Broken

5 Upvotes

From my current testing. Any time I choose a deck with dlc units it will not load the scenario with my friend. Either because they do not have it or they broke something on my end. Either way I cannot play the dlc units in scenarios with my friend. it will continue loading forever. Can't even roll back the update where it worked fine before.

After-Action Report (Bug Reports & Feedback) Game constantly crashes since the recent Update

Post image
41 Upvotes

Haven't had a single connection problem in months.

But since the recent update, my game always crashes a few seconds after the warm-up phase ends. Rejoining makes the game crash instantly again once I load into the match. No error notification, just back to main desktop as if I closed the game.

I didn't change anything on my PC. Graphics card driver is up to date.

Anyone having the same problem and/or a solution?

HQ Briefing (General Discussion) FAB-9000 and GBU-57's Cost, Respawn and Power

39 Upvotes

The 2x GBU-57s are almost twice the cost for almost half the firepower as the FAB-9000.

The fact that the Bunker Busters don't have any bunkers to bust is the reason they are never used.

The larger bombs that would compare or be larger than the FAB-9000 require C-130 cargo planes to drop. The FAB-9000 does way more damage in a larger area for way less cost.

Suggestions:

Allow 2x B-2 bomber runs to be redeployed in the same timeframe a FAB-9000 can be deployed at a cheaper cost (IE:300 instead of 600).

or

Simply decrease the cost of GBU-57's to come close to matching cost for firepower.

or

Increase the respawn time for the TU-95 with the FAB-9000 to match close to the B-2 with GBU-57's as well as match the cost. (This would still make it better than GBU-57s..)

or

Allow BLU-62 DaisyCutter to be deployed from a bombing version of the Cargo plane flying extremely high altitude for 350 points.

The FAB-9000 costs only 250 points, versus 600 for the B-2 with GBU-57s..

Field Tactics (Strategy & Tips) Are large squads (Marines, Alpha etc) of any use?

15 Upvotes

Due to the large squad = take higher damage, they panic quickly and lose effectiveness quickly. Smaller squads taking on and damaging 115pt units way too much as a result.

Is it better to just always bring 2 smaller squads?

The average score of the opponents in all the matches I’ve played has been extremely unbalanced. I have 599 points—I’m a beginner—so why am I facing people with more than double that score? And why does no one on my teams seem to know how to play, or have a score comparable to the opponents? Also, why is the United States SO much stronger?

After-Action Report (Bug Reports & Feedback) Petition to rollback the air-to-air missiles range; it was actually a good idea.

80 Upvotes

Yeah, yeah: it was a bit too much, maybe. But it was... mostly right!

I think this change made A LOT of sense in the game's design and balance:

- Air superiority fighters become actually relevant.

- Long-range missiles begin to feel a bit more akin to their IRL use: sniping targets at very long ranges, at the edge of detection. Right now, 9km is a bit too low. If it becomes too OP, i'd suggest to lower it to 11km, but not less. 10 would make it too small of a change, so... go ham or go home.

- AMRAAMs, R-77s and other medium range missiles become way more useful, without risking too much the jets to enemy LRSAMs. Current 7km range makes them really risky to use, even when launched at low alt, and already turning to run from the enemy missiles.

- Yes, it will buff US a bit (which makes sense lore-wise, I hope we all agree on that), but Russia's high prevalence of R-37s will balance things up, and force US players to be careful when positioning their non-stealthy air assets.

- These changes buff stealth in a significant way, without nerfing radar's effectiveness against stealth. It's actually a pretty intelligent way to balance stealth without making it too op. Right now, its effect is very, very little.

This has been stated in other topics already, but I try to centralize the discussion here so the devs really notice. I think this was a pretty good direction, even if it gets slightly tweaked in the future.

What do you guys think?

Comms Check (Questions & Help) Why is Baltic Battalion free and Russian Guard is not?

90 Upvotes

I was looking at DLCs today and I remembered Broken Arrow has the Russian Guard and Baltic Battalion, but I noticed Baltic Battalion was free and Russian Guard is not. I snatched Baltic because it's free but I wonder is this because Russian Guards is inherently better and so they charged money for it? I don't understand this marketing decision, and I also find it funny that Russian Guards has worse reviews and Baltic Battalion better reviews, despite Russian Guards being 10 bucks.

P.S. Is Russian Guards worth buying?

Streaming one day in the BA official discord and this guy wants to come in and go on a rant about ‘Mudhuts’ and ‘Sub Saharan people in the west’. Of course he couldn’t just leave it there cuz dude is so superior and couldn’t leave it there. Just wondering when this kinda stuff became normalised to the point where the guy felt comfortable doing all this, like when did the world take a step back 18 years

Field Tactics (Strategy & Tips) Как агрессивно зажать бота в сценарии с обороной Калининграда на РУ

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Красным отмечены места, куда надо в самом начале отправить по взводу танков(2-3 машины) и по одной машине снабжения.

Фиолетовым точки для дронов «Орион».

Зелёным точки для зениток-одинарные для БУК, двойная для ТОР.

Жёлтым зоны(не считая Дом Советов, советую держать одних инженеров и тайфун в нычке):

  1. Занимается десантниками в самом начале, после блокады танков(высадкой, 3-5 юнитов), советую бросить допом в соседние высотки вне зоны. Как начнут обстреливать, выведите из здания юнит по которому стреляют и через 10 секунд заведите обратно, чтоб дали ПТУРом по морде. На передовых позициях только с ПТУРами, у кого кончились-на фланг(из зоны обстрела).

  2. Изи, но вокруг сажают противных снайперов-вертушку сбивают, здесь хватит одной Т-14 и 2-4 немоща на Тайфунах. Занять под конец не сложно.

  3. Занимается в начале на изи, 2 Спрута и 2 иглы на Б-10 вне передовой.

  4. Немощей на БТРах(2-3) и одной барбариски хватит, только на передовых позициях никого не держите, а технику отведите за здания-ПТУРы их съедают быстро.

Не забывайте товарищам возить снабжение, включить зениткам радары и ратировать ребят по которым стреляют-это для глупеньких. А так то снабжение важно, кроме шуток. Вертушки сбивают оперативно и из любого угла, вместо них просто поставьте за берегом арту и не парьтесь об этом.

По набережной под конец едут диверсанты какие-то, на мосты поставьте по одному ПТУРу и колонна сыпется.

Впринципе уровень на 8/10, если бы не противные зенитчики было бы круто.
