Got lucky in that case - tons of people got banned in bf3 cause they didnt like the blue tint, and used 3rd party tools to change the colors.
Banned? I don't remember that. Maybe punkbuster wouldn't let you play for an hour? There was a tool to get rid of the color tint and mess around with the colors for BF3. I know, I used it and I was on the forum where it was released. One of my pics was used in a PCgamer article. The only downside is that Punkbuster would kick you when it detected that you edited the games files and sometimes it wouldn't detect the altered files at all and sometimes it would be anywhere from 30 minutes to hours before punkbuster would kick you. DICE client sided a lot of things with BF3 which lead to a lot of cheating and punkbuster being useless. Infinite health and infinite ammo were pretty popular on the Metro 24/7 servers.
I got suspended for something like 48 hours for using a "porno" battlelog profile picture (which I drawn myself trough their own editor, lmao), after like 3 warnings, worth it.
Yeah, punkbuster was useless - all actual bans were manuel bans made by ea. I had a couple of friends who got banned for using the injectors.
Lol, i got banned for 1 year... not gonna write here for what (dont wanna get banned here aswell... lol), though i can say it wasn't cheating, and it was well worth it aswell... funny AF
The new #Battlefield2042 patch pushes the game further in the right direction. It's still a shame the game wasn't given more time for polish & balance to be applied before launch, but credit to the teams for delivering these patches faster than I think most of us expected -> https://twitter.com/MrProWestie/status/1468878663626244101?s=20

I mean, unless they ditch the specialists and their completely tone deaf oneliners, and implement proper levolution mechanics I can't see myself taking this game seriously. I recently booted up BF4 and holy... that game blows this out of the water. I know it also had a crappy launch but does that really justify BF2042's situation?
Not only does this mod looks great, it reminds me the time i liked Battlefield musics. If you can't tap your foot on the floor and say "yes, this is badass", then it's not Battlefield worthy.
There is one thing I really would love them to bring back is Battlelog. For me it was amazing feature in BF3 and BF4. So much statistics for weapons progressions. Live server update. I could see who is playing, score and how much time left till the end of the map. I really miss it.
@Mr_Alexander G3D ? BF1 teaser trailer with BF2042 Fortnite voices, clearly not the same franchise. https://www.reddit.com/r/Battlefiel.../?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3
When you realize you made a bad design decision in the first place which should have happened with proper QA and playtests. I wonder if they are going to mod the vanilla maps to an extend so you dont have to say those are the worst BF maps in history.
