My buddies and I have played for about a year (on xbox), and never encountered more than one suspicious player in a game.
Until tonight.
Every single campaign, on both sides is filled with extremely questionable behavior. SMGs lasering us from across the map, people sprinting and shooting at the same time, our rally points being destroyed within seconds of being put down, etc.
Is anyone else experiencing extremely out of whack lobbies tonight?
Well it depends…
I was on the GIVING side earlier, with 2 gentlemen well known in the forums. When this happens (a stack) it might feel indeed overwhelming for the enemy, but it could go both way if we met another stack, maybe…
I haven’t noticed anything different however. matches seemed to go as usual for me.
I haven’t experienced that on us servers today. The people performing well are mostly people I have been playing with/against for a little while now. Not too many new faces in Tunisia lol.
We tried Berlin, Pacific, Normandy, and Moscow, and all 4 we were encountering issues.
Also to note, all the lobbies were 100% full of crossplay (with playstation) players. This usually isn’t the case. Normally its about 20-40% bots.
I’m not against playing full teams of players, but when we are repeatedly getting killed by really questionable stuff (prime example is a Puma punching through the front armor of a jumbo while moving full speed across the field, after which he gets stuck and we hit it with everything we have including direct bomb hits, m9 bazookas, and tank shells, and he just jumps out with his crew and runs away.)
Like I said, a lot of really sketchy things.
That is sketchy, do you have any replay evidence?
Let me see if I recorded some of it. One minute.
I’m still trying to figure out the “replay” thing within the game, I did not record clips personally, some of my buddies may have, but I did get this earlier.
I wasn’t even aware that there COULD be 17 players on one side. If I’m not mistaken, there isn’t supposed to be.
Btw. Hackers in purely console matches? I highly doubt it.
Maybe AI is just broken.
And it’s actually not 17 vs 10.
New real players just filled lobby after bot players were already added to the match.
After squad of bot player will be wiped, he automatically desert the match.
This happens quite often.
Sketchy stuff been happening in this game for some time
Just leave the match and try to find a new one that hopefully doesn’t have the sketchy stuff happening
I’ve also experienced this weird stuff of low end starter tanks somehow one shotting a higher end tank with far superior armor from across the map front facing, like it was a modern day bunker buster homing missile…but only on the receiving end of it, so the other guy is doing the sketchy stuff
And then other times the top end tank can hit a low end tank repeatedly in usual spots that normally are one shot kills, and they do nothing, it’s like nothing is happening, and you see the visual impact of the shell and where it hit and it just has no effect
That may have been me and my boy, was on Moscow, axis specifically on grove
Get used to this post progression update, more of that to come…
this happens when lots of players quit and are replaced with bots. game doesnt kill those players bot soldiers and is showing those players as active until their squad dies. only when their squad dies will they show as disconnected.
sometimes they dont die till end of match cause team is just roflstomping enemy.
idk if i would say that about crossplay off…
I guess You can test this on custom matches, with restrictive settings (specific map, specific campaign), and it should more or less show if this sketchy behavior is AI doing weird things, or players exploiting stuff.
