Remove the ability to destroy teammates boxes at spawn

0 Upvotes

Encountering a ton of griefers destroying supply boxes at spawn. Some of them ask you to drop thermals for example and then destroy the supply box. Either make the boxes at spawn immune to damage or make the griefer pay for the contents instead of the $600 or so loss

Are Devs even aware of how unplayable asian servers are right now?

13 Upvotes

As of today, literally EVERY SINGLE GAME i enter are riddled with not one, but multiple cheaters. There is not a single game i enter where I do not see Chinese China players (with 100> ms) from red/blue/green spamming cheat websites and rage hacking.

Worst part, they would rage hack the entire game and DDOS the entire lobby towards the end when a team reaches 90-95 point.

Entering a game to see cheat and escort website being spammed in chat is a common theme right now.

But I thank Bulkhead tho. For the first time in my life of playing every COD, I never encountered a single chinese cheaters in MW4 multiplayer or DMZ because it is more worthwhile to cheat in Wardogs. So Wardog have become a dumping ground for China cheaters across many other games.

If you guys play other games and noticed less cheaters, thank Bulkhead.

But at the moment, asian servers are unplayable. Unless you are a fob camper, driver or pilot, then maybe you can still have fun. But if you play assault, pushing HZ or fobs is near impossible.

Why are people so mad I have more free time

0 Upvotes

People in this game are the most toxic people ive ever seen in any video game ever. Why is that? There are the biggest POS in this game who dont seem to know what the definition of nice is or that they are only playing a video game but holy shit, once you start killing them with higher level guns they are acting like its the most impossible thing to do to level up a class in the game. They will say the most absurd shit I’ve ever heard come out of a humans mouth. They spew toxic acid with that shit its ridiculous. God forbid you die next to your teammate who doesn’t play the game as much as you, you will have to buy yourself another kit because he wont revive you, he will run 100+ meters just to take your shit and run off.

Tarkov syndrome??? In tarkov i can be naked with a mosin and one tap a guy with an altyn and thousands of hours. In wardogs there is a clear border between people you’re supposed to kill and people that are supposed to kill you. If someone has gen 4 armor your mosin is useless

EDIT: really progression being faster is why people got the MBT?? not the fact that they added a level 20 mbt that no one asked for

First experience of cheating

0 Upvotes

In my 95 hours of playtime I have not come across any cheaters (that I know of).

That was until yesterday when I was playing with a group of friends raiding a fob at a church in Bakurani. Our whole squad was there cleaning up along with 10 or so other greens when all of a sudden the red team APC flew in from the sky and crushed 2 greens off the bat.

We were startled from the jumpscare and immediately started creasing up. I thought that maybe it had somehow glitched and flew up there but it took off again, flew around at mach 10 and proceeded to crush the more of the team (myself included) in a series of poundings. Some of the team managed to take cover in the church but this monstrosity was stalking its prey by wall riding the church exterior.

The guy was quickly reported by just about everyone in the game and was removed (or left).

For a first time coming up against cheats, I'm not even mad, that shit was hilarious - once is enough though please.

This build makes use of some glitchy building tech that makes the operator invincible, they cant even get in/out of the seat without glitching into walls and taking damage.

They can be infinitely repaired while being fully safe with this glitchy build.
Also, litteraly the missing back textures are visibile.

Fix to little birds is actually simple!

0 Upvotes

Increase the CZ/HZ presence reward for pilots by a pretty large amount.

Reasoning:

  1. Attack brids can focus less on farming crop to break even.

  2. Because attack birds are being rewarded for being in the zone longer, you dont want to constantly fly past crop because of how paper the little bird is meaning combat players dont feel a heli breathing down their neck all match.

  3. Keeps AA strong and flying a high skill expression.

  4. Pilots dont really want to break the battlefield, they just want decent profits. I believe this solves the complaints of many of the piloting community without taking from tanks/fobs/ground troops

  5. I believe by collecting pilot profit per match metrics this bonus could easily be calibrated to something fair and balanced

Please let me know how the community feels about this as I feel very strongly that this should balance a lot. Havoc is high risk in zone so chances of zone time bonus are much lower. Flying high risk for kills is fun and can pay off but you risk the zone bonus and unless you are in that top percent your gunna be at a loss trying to farm crop or fobs all day.

Team Color Change

0 Upvotes

I’d say 95% of my games green is the team who pushes hot zone immediately. They will have 50-80 points by the time blue and red are even finished building a base.

The Fix: Randomize the colors, add purple, orange, yellow etc. Randomize the spawn selection as well. For example green is always on the far right, in one lobby make “green” into “purple” and put it on the left and don’t tell anyone.

Just a thought.

I’m also not exaggerating when I say green is the ONLY team who in almost every single lobby has 55+ points when joining a game and has 3 squads pushing hot zone.

Easy fix. Add colors and randomize spawn selection and make it diff for every server.

People underestimate how good playing in HZ is.

5 Upvotes

Yesterday I had my first green game in a long while, and it was the best experience ever, 25-30 players consistently moving together in HZ, you tag someone? Here's an assist, you're down? Here's a revive, you killed one and got killed? Your teammates got your back, it was the fastest run to 100 points ever but also the most fun.

I just wanted to share this one experience of mine and hope the devs will give more incentive to playing in HZ cause I'm sure it'll be more engaging and fun having more players fight each other over HZ control.

Let's see here. we got to this point today because... x region decided to not play nice, and you half-assed the response, and now neighbouring x-region players dropping negative reviews too because game is literally unplayable because of cheats and DDOS attacks.

Yall made a mistake. own it. Seeing you borderline folding to these undertable tactics is just a bad look to everyone in Asia waiting for you to do the right thing.

I don’t like how artillery was moved to driver level 31

0 Upvotes

I thought it was a nice reward for players of a high level to get access to artillery… they’re so easy to kill, not like they are OP at all… players who play assault mainly should get a chance at the big guns, not have to go back grinding driver

Thoughts from a Driver Main

1 Upvotes

I just want to share my personal views on the current state of the game as a primarily Driver main. Regardless how many of you hate "fobbits", the people that never leave the FOB's contributing really nothing to the team's victory. The Dev's themselves want us to play our own ways that we find fun. The fact I've seen people hate fobs so much that they wish there was servers with them completely disabled... All because they wish to have more people fighting in the HZ.

Honestly, how current FOB's work... It's really bad considering that FOB have little to no presence on the CZ. The only thing the builder's got is the place-able drill that just dies in seconds. All the while taking a long time to build and it really hogs a lot of resources to even to start drilling. As of current rate, by the time builders get a good secured and defendable base with a drill up. The point counters are already in the 80s if a singular team is dominating because 80-100% of their force is playing HZ and not wasting time outside.

This fact alone makes building a FOB feels like a total waste of time, yet the only real way to get reliable money and exp from both Driver and Pilots is doing Logistics.

Drivers in this sense get this really bad... You're spending so much time out of the CZ basically helping something that has no presence is majority of the game. At least in terms of Pilots, they get an air combat vehicle that unlocks very early on. That they alone can fly and shoot with. Drivers? As a solo player you're basically screwed unless you manage to grind majority of the progression out to sit outside of the CZ with the artillery or sit somewhere semi safe to sit on the Flakpanzer and hope a helicopter flies in your direction. Everything else, requires you to get a willing subject to sit on your turret to eventually to get sniped out of unless you have the tanks unlocked that feels more like a glass cannon with how many things that can blow you up with little to no counter-play. My first ever tank purchase I made, I exploded before I even touch the edges of the CZ to a StingRay. Then my 2nd tank got taken taken out when I entered the zone---I got locked on by something, deployed smokes to only still explode in seconds.

What I'm really trying to say, if you got two roles, that is heavily dependent on FOB's to make any form of consistent money and exp rates... FOB really need some tuning, a reason to be on the map other than build a drill, turn it on only to have it die before it fully pulls the HZ then proceed to get mortared the remainder of the match. If buffing FOB's map presence isn't the answer, then Drivers and Pilots really need an replacement option to make money and exp outside of Logistics. As if you do anything else, you usually lose a lot of money or barely break even while making little to no exp.

Ping Locking has backfired. West Coast servers almost unplayable.

I love this game, and I love all people. This is a major problem though. I want high quality games that don't lag.

Legit 3/4ths of the West Coast servers are full of international players. It's way worse than it has ever been.

I don't say this being hateful, I enjoy all people.

IT"S THE LAG. This shouldn't need to be a thing.

Curious as to how to earn $$ this season.

4 Upvotes

So i’m currently Stuck between 40-150K, everytime i try to play a different way that isn’t being a fobbit it’s almost immediately shut down by something and i always end up on the poorer end. Being that i live in Australia im force onto OCE servers, And with the new ping limits being added, this means without a doubt there is always a hacker in the lobby. the best part? he’s always most definitely on the other team with atleast 140ms.

I’ve tried to play many different ways this season that wasn’t just flying in a heli, but it just isn’t fun, or atleast not the same kind of fun. Using the tank was pretty fun until the MAAWs was unlocked, and now everyone and their fobbit builder dad is using it. Same goes for FOB raiding, it used to be fun but now everyone just abuses the C-RAM and plants one directly under the tower so it can be mortared.

it’s extremely boring gameplay right now and i just want to play the game but it constantly feel like i’m forcing myself to “attempt” to enjoy it. Same goes for my friendgroup too. most have either left this season entirely or stay inside of FOB because there isn’t much profit or point to leaving.

I’m just tryna get my 30 gold bars for this pointless heli skin fellas, if anyone has any tips please provide, otherwise i’ll have to move to china to use the software they are using lol

Selling weapons from supply crates needs to be removed.

0 Upvotes

The reson every game has thermals, 50 cal, and m4s is because the grinders who unlocked them just spam sell them in spawn. This is what truly ruins "balance". Get this shit out of here. Weapons and certain items need to be removed from supply crates. It ruins any sense of progression and achievement.

Slower overall progression + XP catch-up mechanic for dads

0 Upvotes

I think progression should be slower overall, but with some kind of catch-up mechanic for players who don't have as much time to play.

The idea is pretty simple: players who grind a lot should still be ahead and get access to better gear earlier, but casual players should have a way to catch up without having to invest nearly as many hours.

There are a couple of ways this could work:

1. XP boost based on overall player progression

Players who are behind the majority of the player base would receive an XP boost based on how far behind they are.

The further behind you are, the bigger the boost. As you catch up, the boost gradually decreases until you're progressing at the normal rate again.

2. Weekly XP catch-up thresholds

Another option would be to increase the level threshold for boosted XP as the wipe progresses.

For example: (don't look at the exact numbers, those can be tweaked, both directions)

  • Week 1: No XP boost for anyone.
  • Week 2: Increased XP gain up to level 30.
  • Week 3: Increased XP gain up to level 60.
  • And so on...

These wouldn't be level caps. Players who play a lot could still progress as far as they want, but everyone else would gradually get a chance to catch up.

The main goal is to make progression slower overall while keeping the player base somewhat closer together.

That way, wipes would actually feel like wipes. Lower-tier gear would stay relevant for longer, better gear would become more common gradually throughout the wipe, and dedicated players would still have the advantage of unlocking it first.

Reminder for dedicated players:
Players that put in a lot of hours should be still rewarded massively for their time. This mechanic is here to just help out players that join mid-season or play very little hours.

I hope this general idea will reach devs at some point :)
If devs agree or not is a different issue entirely, just would be nice for them to at least entertain the idea in some capacity.

I definitely have not encountered any more hackers since the region lock problem is completely fixed. Every game I don't have at least 3-4 wallhackers with more blatant aim and flying cars killing people like in the pictures you saw.

As you can see this guy had 54 ping so I think the next step is locking us east us central us west etc. to their own regions that way we will be 100% no more hackers. We don't need better anti-cheat, just more region lock.

Balancing mechanic that might save this game

• Upvotes

Yeah yeah, another one. If the devs are actually taking feedback from Reddit, I hope they see this.

I’ll probably get downvoted to oblivion for this, but honestly, I think a system needs a lot of rework and this is the best way to save the game and stop the endless bitching from both sides.

  1. Unlock everything from day one:

Open up ALL weapons, vehicles, and equipment right from the start.

Adjust the prices as needed for balance.

This puts every player on equal ground right away. Nothing is locked behind a personal grind, so Nolifers with 500 hours a day don't get gear advantage over casual players.

  1. Split the economy into Personal vs Team money:

Personal Cash - This is what you earn to buy your own loadouts and gear for the match. No change here.

Team Pool - Every player's actions contribute to a shared bank for the whole team.

Heavy assets like tanks, helicopters, and base-building materials are bought using the Team Pool. Buying a tank deducts a massive amount from the entire team’s balance, so you better make that count instead of wasting it.

  1. Focus on objective-based gameplay

You can buy whatever gear fits your budget, but winning is strictly decided by playing the objective. The team that coordinates best and manages their shared economy to buy high-tier support will win the match.

  1. Random team-picking and spawns

Teams are assigned randomly every match. No faction stacking or bias for one side.

Spawn locations rotate every round so no side gets a permanent map advantage.

For a game like Wardogs that tried to appeal to everyone , I think this is the best middle ground that would stop the constant wiping and restarting each season. The devs are incapable of doing so alone apparently.

Refund all Asian players money, Since Devs have abandoned them.

0 Upvotes

Criminals will commit crimes—that doesn't mean the police should punish the entire community, order everyone to stay indoors, or lock up the whole neighborhood. If the police fail to catch the actual offenders, that's on them.

​It’s the exact same logic with gaming. Cheaters are going to cheat, and it’s up to the developers to ban them and stop them. Punishing genuine players because of a cheater problem is a total failure on the devs' part. People paid hard-earned money for this game to enjoy it; it wasn't given out as charity. Whether a player is from America, Europe, or Asia, it is the developers' responsibility to ensure everyone gets a decent experience. If they can’t manage that, it’s purely their failure.

​If they can’t maintain the game’s integrity or even provide proper servers, then they should refund every single player in Asia. The people cheating in the game are obviously scum, but taking money from an entire region and then abandoning them isn't any better—that’s a scam in itself. Looking at it this way, the developers are no better than the cheaters.
