BF4 is still the fps I have the most hours logged in (around 1200 last I checked)
I was on both the Cod and Battlefield trains until BF5 and Advanced Warfare…seems they just kept trying to fix what wasn’t broken while leaving long standing issues be.
Lucky most of them games got fan made servers/clients so even when the official servers die people will still be able to play them.
The thing is that kind of solution only works on that kind of scale. If they get a false positive and ban someone that player can still play on other servers. If the developer gets a false positive and bans someone the player is shit out of luck…
Fair point, just sounds like a reason to me why we should lobby for regulation that forces game developers to provide us with the software to host our own servers
hmmm as if there is a way to this with software and a bit of elbow grease…
bad company 2 to BF4, the golden are of mil shooter. cod sucks!

True but they are not cross play and nowadays it is hard to get everyone to buy into xbox
I was referring mainly to the fan made PC clients like Plutonium for the older Cod titles. and it even works on Linux with recent proton updates.
There’s a similar project for BC2 to BF4 but I haven’t looked into it much and dunno if it’s playable on Linux.

One of the reasons developers do not want to give you server binaries is that it makes it easier to create cheats that isn’t just wall hacks.
this is why we need regulation for it
