Everyone who took part in the BF4 CTE - like me on the Xbox One - knows how awesome and important this experience has been.
The CTE has been a huge improvement for BF4 regarding Netcode, Server Tickrate, Balancing (OK, I know there is still a big dispute among some soldiers, like MAA 
, so don’t rost me lol) etc., so a CTE for BF1 should also exist, not only for issues if they occur but also for other community maps and improving 55hz Tickrate Server Gameplay with 64 players. Playing on a 55hz Server was unbelievable great!
What do you think?
CTE was made because BF4 was broken… I kind of hope CTE isn’t needed at all
TRUE! I do like the idea of a Sandbox type environment though. concept testing etc.
I would like if DICE launched CTE early in the games life and once bugs and brokenness where down to a minimal, used it to play test DLCs
I don’t think it should be used as heavily for game balancing though… More like a giant ongoing beta test for new add-ons and patches(that may or may not include weapon balance changes)
Every MP Game with many players will have some issues sooner or later. But like I edited, it’s not only because of fixing issues
I do like CTE, but if the game works fine, I would rather see it used like BF2142 did and beta test patches a week or two prior and early test ideas devs have
CTE is amazing, a lot of other companies use it to test for bugs/balancing and everything else.
It gives the community a chance for constructive critical feedback. I love BF4 and still play it everyday, and I’m glad they used the CTE to improve it.
BF4 CTE was nice to beta test the new maps and the old maps turned night time. But the community got very small fast. Barely had a full servers when I was playing.
then you making a version of BF that what many asked for, modding with the community !
CTE maybe for the beta and release a working client for the retail release.
I’d still love a map editor of our own on consoles. But with Frostbite that be hard to pull off without community maps published and being buggy. Far Cry 2 map editor was awesome.
I’d like closed Beta for couple weeks then open beta for a month Pryor to launch.
Tru that, it was barely full, only at the beginning on Xbox, but this was due to the requirements of BF PREMIUM+PREVIEW PROGRAM.
It should have been at least without premium possible to join CTE.
As a console player (ps4), a way to stop high ping killers intentionally playing out of region is what I hope comes. If not, I don’t know. Just not fun getting OHK’d etc. DICE admitted to the problem (I personally pushed them hard over on Reddit) but nothing was done. When up against high ping players, a faster tick rate just makes you die faster. Meh. Worried. I should add… haven’t played in about 5 months… maybe things are better?
