Reduced Sniper Glint Brightness in Battlefield 6: Developers Adjust After Humorous User Feedback - "I noticed those memes where the hillside was swarmed with large glares"
In the world of gaming, memes have become a powerful tool for expressing opinions and providing feedback. This is no different for the developers of Battlefield 6, a highly-anticipated title in the popular first-person shooter series.
Christian Buhl, the technical director of Battlefield 6, admits to finding the memes about the game's controversial sniper glints amusing. Matthew Nickerson, the senior console combat designer, also shared this sentiment, internally passing along the humorous depictions to the design team.
One of the most popular memes depicted hillside scenes filled with giant sniper glares, poking fun at the strong sniper glint effect in the game. This controversy, which has been a topic of discussion among players, with some calling for its removal, has not been overlooked by the development team.
The memes have proven to be a valuable source of feedback for the team, helping them stay accountable to player feedback and remain focused on necessary adjustments. In response, the sniper glint effect has been toned down, and the developers are making further changes to the game, including modifications to anti-tank and anti-air damage, the class system, and firearms.
The development team appreciates the creative reactions of the Battlefield 6 community and values the feedback they provide. However, their work has not been without challenges. The team encountered issues with the Xbox Series S, as some levels were crashing on the console, and reports of these issues were prevalent on Reddit and EA forums.
Despite these obstacles, the DICE studio team is committed to delivering an optimised Battlefield 6 experience, with improvements to firearms and the removal of the controversial sniper glare being among their priorities. The team is working tirelessly to ensure that the final product meets the expectations of the gaming community.
