Battlefield V Dev Tracker

Man, Danny is now WAY better at English.
WOW.

This is a really good idea. /u/drunkkz3 ?

It's very hard to mimic real world network properties - hence why we have actual netcode debugging in the game, as it gives us the very best and real data from the real world.

So, if it was easy to reproduce (especially with on a global scale stupendously good internet in Sweden for instance) - we would have done so already, the low hanging fruit is all plucked already. That said, this issue might not be netcode/networking at all - it could be some other issue, and getting proof for this via netgraph is very valuable too.

So this is why we ask for video with the netgraph enabled from many sources, it helps narrow down the issue much quicker (and in many cases goes from unreproducible to having information enough to put en engineer on looking at a fix and the code for a specific issue area).

Thanks!

Thanks.

It was a team effort. I'm happy it was well received. Lots of people spend good chunk of time building it.

Yep! All credits goes to the amazing folks at DICE LA for Mercury!

Few points:

• "Enemy Hit +99" is NOT a bug. Damage is presented as a rounded integer of a float. In that case you're just hitting a player at a range where your damage just starts falling-off. If we were to push the fall-off at a further distance, this would still happen but at that new distance instead (although probably less often). The only way to prevent that from happening would be to have a fall-off that directly jumps to an integer (25 to 24 for example) but that would probably be more inconsistent in terms of gameplay.

• "Enemy Hit" showing very high numbers well above 100 when hitting a target is a bug that we are currently investigating and looking to fix. The damage in those cases is correct but the damage log shown by the UI is showing incorrect values (seems like it sometimes counts twice for a single hit). We do not have a very consistent reproduction case for this though so we are looking at various differe...

Many dont want it.

They don't get noticed more. They get more reports and people send us mod mail complaining about you. We are asking you to do things based on community feedback, not of our own accord.

If you do get this - turn on the netgraph and record video - that way we can actually find bugs related to netcode (if indeed it is).

I just want to second this. All of it. I also would like to add that this year around 10 timea a screenshot of a thing I said on twitter ended up here on twitter. Most of them didn't completely misrepresent what I said, but all of them were delivered out of context. Not once was the link to the whole twitter conversation posted. Things like this put my relationship to twitter in a really weird spot. Please twitter people, less of that. Always link the source.

Having that said, I still show up 2-3 times a week to see what's hot and burning.

Because non-real vehicle skins aren't "imaginary world bs" either, right. ;)

Feel free to share some details/context on what you're talking about. If you're experiencing a bug, we'll need some details, including platform, situation, video, etc.

Gotcha. I'll make sure to change that going forward.
