battlefield-6

[distant pendant]

firestorm havent had little birds in bf4 or bf3 though I think?

[outer thistle]

firestorm didnt but if there was one place it should be it is the manhattan bridge map

or even better, do it bf3 way, add it on specific game modes like breakthrough or rush

[south prairie]

they need to change the sledgehammer. you cant even do whats shown in the gameplay trailer because the entire building comes down.

[outer thistle]

i have not seen a single breakthrough with an air vehicle, wtf

are we playing battlefield or csgo?

[hallow swift]

littlebird is too hard for casuals you cant just right trigger left trigger and see explosion had to be cut

[civic herald]

Air vehicle dont belong in break through

[silver sonnet]

bruh are you trying to troll the whole time or what, it's getting tedious

[hallow swift]

vehicles belong in every battlefield mode that isnt TDM or capture the flag

[silver sonnet]

guess that answers my question

[distant pendant]

okay I just looked it up

[grave drum]

Operation locker would like a word

[hallow swift]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFuDzZx3RCE

[distant pendant]

Little Bird is in the game, it's been datamined at least

[frozen thorn]

Some guy said it was a bot and I got shafted for it

[south prairie]

and the ladders need to take a few more shots before they break.

[hallow swift]

its probably in the campaign or something

[faint lintel]

Are there any showcases of the operator skins and or customization

[willow lance]

Not in the preview afaik

[distant pendant]

I guess we'll see, if its not on release its very possible it'll be in future maps. a lot of the maps in bf4 didnt have little birds either

[mint hatch]

There have been a lot of leaks on the subreddit of cosmetics and camos, a lot of them look REALLY good

[distant pendant]

I doubt they'd spend time making vehicles and NOT put them in the mp, that's a bit wasteful

[grave drum]

Yes most maps and modes will have vehicles but there are some maps that could do without in sure. But idk well see!

[hasty pawn]

Are we hyped?????? For bf6 or what it looks sick

Best game of the 2026

[slender epoch]

On the 360 it was 12 v 12 and we still got a A10 for rush

lib peak would be entirely dif if attackers had air assets esp for the final sector

[ripe thorn]

The hype is real🔥

[mint hatch]

Best shooter in half a decade or more 🙏 🙏

[ripe thorn]

Maybe season 1 or 2 they add it

[hasty pawn]

I hope.

[mint hatch]

Same here man, im just a poor poor planetside 2 vet

I havent seen a good game in 85 years

[ripe thorn]

If we get boats soon then we could be looking at a serious contender to BF4

[mint hatch]

Im betting on a naval DLC pack like BF4 and maybe 1 or 2 base game maps with boats

All that I really want is for the tavor 7 to not be bad

[tight prism]

Is the new map any good

[iron bridge]

Lion has risen!

[acoustic plume]

Its been in past titles, haha let's just hope not too much is changed. The mirak valley looks interesting

[dim bramble]

Do you think that love can bloom, even on a Battlefield?

[mint hatch]

What if y-you..... and me..... shared ammo?

[acoustic plume]

I think I'm going to play bf4 now

[dim bramble]

What if we dragged eachother away from a gunfight

[acoustic plume]

Way too op

[mint hatch]

If u stim me I'll stim u bb

[elder bear]

Yall need to get a room.. hahah

[dim bramble]

I demand a hug emote in bf6

[mint hatch]

The sledge i am so unironically excited for both as a bonking tool and as an unexpected entry device

[hearty kelp]

the inevitable solution to vehicles being overpowered is the BF4 route where you make laser designation extremely strong but this time make it even stronger

if i grab a friend and want to focus your vehicle, it should come down if i launch every missile i have at it

[mint hatch]

The strat is gonna be ladder against a flat wall > break wall > 2nd floor entryway

[dim bramble]

Can I make an unexpected entrance?

[ripe thorn]

Ladders are gonna be so fun

[mint hatch]

I will become fireman extraordinaire

[elder bear]

John puts ladder on wall.. Chris knocks down said wall with Sledge...

[winter atlas]

https://youtu.be/-loDklmrbd0?si=fALJVBgmbHdIkR_C

[acoustic plume]

You will get flanked when you forget its still up

[dim bramble]

Is it an assault weapon?

because I am a support main

[mint hatch]

Assault gadget, hammer is assault melee

[elder bear]

I wonder if you can take the ladder down from above once you use it?

[civic herald]

Assault had most play rate I wonder why giving so many buffs

[acoustic plume]

Yes

[dim bramble]

No ladders or hammers for me then. But I can keep you filled up all day and all night long.

[mint hatch]

Become the mortar main you know you're called to be

[acoustic plume]

??

[ripe thorn]

Let em flank. I'll bonk em in the head with a sledgehammer

[dim bramble]

Ammo and health crates

[elder bear]

Nice,

[dim bramble]

Were they not consolidated into one in the Beta?

[ripe thorn]

Ladies and gentlemen..... Ladders.

[mint hatch]

What i want is a pickaxe like from BF1 as a melee that is destructive like the hammer

I also want to melee people and scream MINECRAFT again

[dim bramble]

I am not sure if I want that

I think it would be cool to have remotely detonated breaching charges like in Siege

[elder bear]

Thats what C5 is for

[dim bramble]

Oooh

[mint hatch]

Where is my helldivers 2 thermite

Tank b gone!

[frozen thorn]

I was waiting for someone to post it

[elder bear]

I hope you can at least carry enough C5 to blow up a tank in one go...

[mint hatch]

You could in the beta

[acoustic plume]

And in every other bf game

[elder bear]

I know but i have been on 2042 and you can only carry 2 as a snipe...

as a neer

[winter atlas]

I mean, how could you not

[mint hatch]

I am fairly confident that BF6 will have open weapons. So recon will really just be the C4 class

[elder bear]

3 as an engineer

[frozen thorn]

I summon @hallow geode

[mint hatch]

We can huff the hopium together

[vapid yarrow]

Will they update the guns?

[acoustic plume]

Yes

[vapid yarrow]

I enjoy M4 but the recoil is so high while AK doesnt have recoil which is weird

[worn marten]

Didn’t expect official gameplay today, that’s nice

[dark owl]

M4 has a stupid easy recoil

[silver sonnet]

still waiting for confirmation of dinosaurs in BF6

[civic herald]

To give recon buff since they are least played

What about motion sensor has 3d scanning

[vapid yarrow]

BF6 with boats?

[acoustic plume]

My favorite class has gone to shit 💔

[iron bridge]

Why would you buff recon, in my opinion it's one of the strongest class in bf6, if you are bad you can't use it, it's simple

[acoustic plume]

Did you play bf3

[silver sonnet]

yeppers

[civic herald]

Its good if your hacker

[acoustic plume]

Great campaign that campaign

[silver sonnet]

few single player games let you shoot rockets at snipers quite like it

[iron bridge]

It’s good if you can land headshots, but if you’re bad, stay in your lane and hold back your opinions. The Lion has spoken.

[civic herald]

Why would I listen to onion of banned person

[acoustic plume]

Was blackburn in the tank or a random character (with the dinosaur figure)

[iron bridge]

Banned?

Who is banned?

[silver sonnet]

i cannot remember, i just remember the character looking at the dino figurine lol was like the first major trailer

[civic herald]

Yur

[frozen thorn]

Ill huff jenkem

[lucid quarry]

I hope devs fix high cpu usage

[iron bridge]

The Lion never gets banned, the internet parasites keep trying to leech and drag him down, but they fail every single time

[frozen thorn]

Grounded realism fans
Dinosaur Enjoyers

[molten halo]

firestorm and miraak valley look lit

[iron bridge]

They call the Lion a cheater, but can’t point to a single banned account. That’s 1:0, the Lion prevails as usual, can’t seem to lose here

[silver sonnet]

i initially wasn't super into the mortar, but looks like they made it slow loading enough to not be the most annoying thing in the world haha

you could REALLLLLLY use it to lock down areas in older installments

[molten halo]

the attack heli looks better than 2042 and i hope that the gunship is good

[acoustic plume]

Mortars on grand bazaar conquest were deadly

[silver sonnet]

mortar on Operation Locker basically kept the enemy from advancing on the outside part hahaha

[iron bridge]

Not touching mortars this time, last time the truth got me a 7-day ban. The Lion shows the way, but the cubs cover their ears

[frozen thorn]

I suspect Liberation Peak was supposed to be a medium map and added jets since there is no airstrip

[silver sonnet]

i will forever miss the slightly stupid mortar tank in BF1 though, that thing was hilarious. Either a murder machine, or instant spare parts

[molten halo]

at least theres an appropriate amount of cover unlike 2042

[silver sonnet]

did you forget about ALL the metal storage containers they decided to decorate the maps with afterwards? xD

[molten halo]

in 2042?

i stay in spawn until i can vehicle

the gunplay in 42 was cheeks

[silver sonnet]

wasn't terrible, i enjoyed it a good deal, but yeah was definitely a huge step back in a lot of areas. especially map design

"a few things on the edges and an empty middle" described most of the maps

[frozen thorn]

Feels like funneling into passages. At least Mirak just has trenches to make it a 2nd layer of cover and is an actual funnel

[iron bridge]

The weak whine, the bad complain, but the Lion only appreciates greatness

[molten halo]

i'm gonna complain about limp bizkit in 6

[silver sonnet]

oh did Mirak have trenches?

[molten halo]

hey in the credits what was the godsmack song

[silver sonnet]

"The Little Ships" by Jean-Jacques Perrey

[final helm]

YOOOOOOOOOO

[frozen thorn]

Yeah you would be lion to yourself if that is a something great

[silver sonnet]

remember how kings and lions have to keep reminding people they are? xD

[mint hatch]

The lion does not believe in "oil changes". The lion has black putty in their reservoir

[silver sonnet]

The Lion has accidentally spilled his 7-11 slushy on his keyboard

[molten halo]

The lion has dumped standing up, he got a little on his legs

[iron bridge]

Gonna need to ask chatgpt to decipher this message for me, clearly written in cub-language

[silver sonnet]

The Lion growls mercilessly at his mcnuggets, not a single one to be spared

[novel beacon]

What is that new gamemode called, where there are 7 flags on mirak valley and firestorm instead of the 5, no reinforcements and still looks like conquest?

[flat burrow]

Risk 😬 Jk, it's Escalation

[novel beacon]

So like whats the difference between that and conquest

[flat burrow]

Wait no, apologies, thought you mean the reducing flags

[novel beacon]

Dont have image perms here so go to dms for an example

[iron bridge]

🛝

[errant flower]

What do you guys think that now kill stream/list shows gun/vehicle icon instead of text?
I don't remember how it was in beta - only noticed this today from jackFrags video

[strong echo]

Well the fighter jets r included for sure but they were never included in betas, only attack jets. Gives u hope even tho I hate little birds and those who fly them 💀

[iron bridge]

You’re really asking for opinions on something that doesn’t even change gameplay? The Lion can’t stand roleplayers

[quartz fossil]

Isn't it a setting you can change? You know the game has options right?

[strong echo]

The real Lion couldn't stand watching other domestic cats call themselves lions 😉

[iron bridge]

The Lion can’t hear a 0.5 kd cub pipping up

[quartz fossil]

The Lion shivers when The Manul approaches

[long bolt]

[strong echo]

Who the hell is that lmfao

[novel beacon]

So it is escalation, it starts with 7 flags at first

[quartz fossil]

New character in the upcoming season. Stay tuned on xitter follow Kalos

[errant flower]

Well. Overall HUD is busy and busier than previous titles.
I assume that there are people on this discord who played bf2,3,4 and maybe also work in design fields.

[iron bridge]

🥱 The 0.5 kd 'bf vets' strike again

[strong echo]

Is that the lion whining about others' kds?

Sounds pretty soy boy beta to me

[errant flower]

That nonchalant "I don't care" poser attitude is so last year ya know boy? 😉

[strong echo]

U tell him uzu

[iron bridge]

The Lion doesn’t waste time on trivial stuff like UI text vs. icons, bigger battles to fight. Cubs wouldn't get it

[strong echo]

The proclaimed lion appeared to be an apex player, thus lost all credibility

[errant flower]

Well. Some people have more developed brain so can care about different aspects of the gameplay and see the picture. Kiddo.

[strong echo]

The proclaimed lion was abolished by uzu

[vocal tree]

You not a real bf player if you don’t take time to look at the little stuff, go back to COD, this bf6 is a throwback to the OG’s

[iron bridge]

The Lion outperforms you in every metric possible, on the field and off the field

[ripe thorn]

Vehicle radio might be returning. Jackfrags video showed a bunch of licensed songs for "vehicle radios"

[iron bridge]

🥱

[ripe thorn]

Might be for campaign only idk

[strong echo]

The proclaimed lion appears to be getting teamed up upon and losing the battle

[errant flower]

True king doesn't need to shout he's a king. So. Ya know. Rest in peace dear friend.

[long bolt]

the person you are responding to is insufferable, it seems there only goal on this discord is to anoy others

[iron bridge]

A 0.5 kd cub thinks they can beat the Lion? Keep dreaming, he doesn’t lose to amateurs.

[strong echo]

The defeated proclaimed male lion was seen leaving the forest as he suffered extensive humiliation

[vocal tree]

You have to be 15 and a massive Andrew Tate fan to be making lion analogies about yourself

[iron bridge]

🤨

[iron bridge]

A 0.5 kd cub keeps failing to say anything true, naturally, he won’t bring up his stats. He knows the Lion already made the right call about him

[strong echo]

U don't know that my Kd is 2. Something and I have 6 digit score in 30 games only

[iron bridge]

Oh, the Lion forgot he’s talking to a freakshow of a tank player with only 2 kd. My bad for disturbing the peace in the wheelchair section

[vocal tree]

You’re just cringe mate

[strong echo]

Wait a minute, r u one of those 2 controller players?

[iron bridge]

Little chihuahua barking? The Lion couldn’t care less

[iron bridge]

The Lion wouldn’t touch a controller with a ten-foot pole

[errant flower]

And yet still responding to every single new participant of this delusion 😉

[strong echo]

Cap, launch the proclaimed lion to the sun with no return

[hexed moth]

Love this Discord. Not for the bf info. For the drama. Carry on, just gonna grab a smoke.

[distant pendant]

The lion has successfully ragebaited the chat

[long bolt]

well they have been at it for over 24hours, it has to sleep soon X)

[strong echo]

He's making enemies rn, let him cook

[iron bridge]

Even if, and that’s a big if, the Lion played with a controller, he’d still put that little cub cab driver to shame. Five times his kd, 1.25x his xp per game

[polar delta]

Can I play it right now? If so how

[strong echo]

The launch was delayed because of @iron bridge

Bf6 is just never coming out

The whole thing is scraped, no more bf6.

[iron bridge]

Gotta feel bad knowing you’re a disappointment both on the field and off. The Lion wouldn’t know that feeling

[strong echo]

U sound like that meme vid "and that was the move that made LeBron cry"

[long bolt]

yup, resorces have been diverted into making a new lion hunting game 😉

[iron bridge]

The Lion doesn’t understand such low tax bracket references

[strong echo]

The proclaimed lion seems to be living under a rock

[polar delta]

It's just a simple question lol how are Westie and them playing

[errant flower]

https://tenor.com/view/do-something-funny-meme-gif-26534085

[iron bridge]

The Lion’s too busy living life to the fullest.

[strong echo]

Have a feeling it's more of a failure than bf2042 💀

[distant pendant]

People in Labs can play (during most* weekends), all bf content creators recently got to play the new bigger maps and record (and post a sponsored(?) video. If you are not in Labs you wont be able to play until the game comes out.

[long bolt]

less than 4 weeks now 🙂

[dark owl]

time flies

it's almost 3 weeks actually

[distant pendant]

basically 3 weeks at this point

[stable remnant]

yeah only 72 days

[distant pendant]

what

[iron bridge]

The Lion hopes the little cubs have been practicing in BF2042 or other titles, games get boring when the Lion dominates everyone

[strong echo]

@frank dust has the answer for all of u, please stand by for his reply

[dark owl]

we're almost at sub 2 million seconds mark

[civic herald]

The lion keep getting muted

[frank dust]

2,005,191 seconds remain until Battlefield 6

[strong echo]

He has responded

[dark owl]

sub 2mm hype train

[iron bridge]

The Lion gets called a cheater by vermin internet parasites

[dark owl]

who's the lion

[strong echo]

Fr, who's this dude talking to

[dark owl]

👴

[unreal grove]

@frank dust !time

[willow lance]

Lion is based because he at least enjoys playing the game unlike BF playerbase 😂

[frank dust]

!!!

[dark owl]

is it a streamer?

I'm just seeing ppl mentioning lions

[slender epoch]

How many business seconds until bf6

[dark owl]

I have PTSD w lions

[strong echo]

Yo can we fit this dude on the one way rocket to the sun real quick?

[iron bridge]

The Lion appreciates both the good and the bad in games. He doesn’t whine like the small cubs.

[rocky granite]

New weapons, maps and gadgets look sick

[unreal grove]

662400

[slender epoch]

Nice

[iron bridge]

Small cubs cling to their insecurities and pour them out with every little whine. Makes them feel better, I guess. Lion would never feel insecure.

[rocky granite]

Weapon inspects are back

[unreal grove]

excellent

[rocky granite]

Levelution is back, atleast on Mirak

[frank dust]

Alright so I’m making an adjustment. Until confirmed otherwise, assuming this time is the global release:

10th October 2025 @ 4PM BST

[vestal wasp]

where can i put my feedback? which channel to battlefield developers

[frank dust]

That was seen on UK preorder

So if we recalculate time with this adjustment factored in….

[tight prism]

The EA Forums is your best bet for feedback.

[vestal wasp]

ok i will do it

[civic herald]

How much is UK time to US

[frank dust]

1,962,569 seconds remaining until Battlefield 6

[grave river]

23 days right

[iron bridge]

The internet parasites can’t even use Google. You’re asking him to give you time when you’re juggling multiple time zones?

[frank dust]

When we find out a confirmed local US time, we will cross check. For now, the uk time is dice confirmed.

[iron bridge]

Mods need to start requiring IQ tests to type in this chat

[grave river]

^^

[long bolt]

2042 load up screen has a d/h/s countdown

[humble plover]

WHY CAN'T IT BE SOONER

[frank dust]

Do we know if it’s just to the day though, or the true confirmed time? Either way dice will confirm launch times a little closer to release

[frank dust]

About 3 weeks to go. We’re close.

[long bolt]

its the most offical time i know of 🤷‍♂️

[onyx willow]

battlefield

[humble plover]

Every time I open my steam library I see the Coming soon icon and I start screaming internally

[onyx willow]

i start digging in my buh

[iron bridge]

Little cubs are getting out of hand, can’t even handle a bit of waiting.

Little cubs should go practice their skills in other titles.

[willow lance]

Farmers gonna farm, crops gonna farmed

[woven fiber]

Newegg has a deal on the battlefield 6 preorder but the listing says Xbox and windows digital code, does that mean the code will be for the xbox app on pc? Will it be a play anywhere title, i want to buy the code but i cant find any info

[iron bridge]

The small little cub tries to come in with another take, clearly just as wrong as every other ones

[humble plover]

That's a PC key site I think

Probably for Xbox PC app, but it could be play anywhere which is cross buy

[woven fiber]

I thought that as well but when you look at the listing on the microsoft store it only lists xbox as the platform

[humble plover]

It is not available on Xbox PC, it's only on Epic, EA and steam. So it is a console key.

[woven fiber]

Yeah i figured the listing wasnt accurate, though i finally found a preorder discount for PC 😭

[strong echo]

Wait, I'm pretty sure it's available on Microsoft store 💀

Can someone actually check? Microsoft store is basically PC Xbox

[polar delta]

But not for ps?

[humble plover]

Just checked, it's not

I wasn't able to find any pre order discounts either that have been proved to be legit

[strong echo]

Yea I checked as well, it was bf 2042 not 6

[humble plover]

Be careful when buying from key sites! Make sure to verify the seller!

[willow lance]

Sites only gives like 5% discount anyways

Not worth it

Might as well rent ea play for same discount

[ripe thorn]

During an interview a couple of days ago, senior combat designer Matthew Nickerson discussed a console-only crossplay mode for Battlefield 6, confirming that PlayStation players will be able to play with Xbox players when crossplay is disabled. However, EA has since then revealed that this isn’t how BF6’s crossplay works.

Bruh make up yo mind devs lol

[willow lance]

Crossplay won't matter since they nerfed the AA

[ripe thorn]

Won't matter to who?

[willow lance]

To anyone

[dark owl]

even with AA not nerfed I still think it doesn't matter

[iron bridge]

Only bad players complain about AA

[dark owl]

M/K is really superior

accuracy wise

[ripe thorn]

I'm so lost lol

[willow lance]

Crossplay in other games are console sided, because most devs would rather just buff aim assist so the game plays itself, BF however found a nice balance

[ripe thorn]

So you mean console aim assist will no longer make PC players sad? Is that what's being talked about here?

[willow lance]

Yeah

[ripe thorn]

Ok I see

[dark owl]

they'll still be mad and complain

just bc it exists

not because it's strong or not

[willow lance]

Nah

[sharp sigil]

But arent the console players the one that want the disable crossplay option? To not play with pc players?

[dark owl]

bad players will find the nearest target to blame why they are playing like ass

[willow lance]

People complain about AA in other games like Halo and COD because it makes games unplayable for MNK players, BF has a nice balance

Halo even introduced AA to PC, PC has AA by default in Halo now 😂

[ripe thorn]

Exactly. I'm not interested in playing against PC players as a PS5 player

[dark owl]

just turn cross play off

and you should be good

[ripe thorn]

I know. Just saying it's weird they said they were doing an Xbox and ps mode then changed their mind lol

[long bolt]

just keep in mind that aa is not console only, pc players can plug in a controller and get aa, or worse use aa with keyboard and mouse via hardware "hacks"

[willow lance]

Average PC player is as bad as average console player, it won't play any different

[humble plover]

PC and console are equal

Controller is harder to master but easier to learn, M&K is harder to learn but easier to master

Unless of course you play with cheaters.....

[willow lance]

Average PC player has similarly inaccurate aim to average console player, BF isn't a game that requires precision aiming unless you are sniping anyways

[ripe thorn]

Tbh crossplay on for PS5 was putting me with like 99% console players. So imma just leave it on. Seems like they improved it way more over 2042

[willow lance]

BF is 90% positioning, which is why I get similar scores when I play with MNK and controller

[deep glade]

Because there isn’t a lot of console players lol

[long bolt]

yup, read somewere that console players are matched up first to a lobby when crosplay is enabled

[ripe thorn]

Huh? How would that make sense? Wouldn't I get PC players mostly if that were true lol

[slender epoch]

Dice just give me the cfa 44 nosferatu then idc who I play against

[steel sundial]

i see alot more console on 2042, and if you turn off crossplay in conq128 you will wait hours

[ripe thorn]

They should add a note over crossplay saying this in game cos soooo many console players are gonna turn it off not realising this lol

[deep glade]

I meant on 2042

[steel sundial]

if you are pc

[muted kiln]

so I'm guessing gold standard is the new tier one

[ripe thorn]

Ohhhhhh true lol

[muted kiln]

every vehicle seems to have it

[ripe thorn]

Ok no wonder crossplay prioritising console with console didn't work on 2042. Game was deader than B07 will be at launch

[opaque cypress]

Is it October 10th yet

[steel sundial]

if you turn off cossplay as a pc player in 2042 conq128 you will wait hours for queue

[slender epoch]

2042 had glaring issues other than crossplay

[ripe thorn]

Wait really? I thought It won goty

[civic scarab]

The only thing 2042 should be awarded for is their trailers. Sure got all of us hyped.

[ripe thorn]

Ngl the 2042 trailers hyped me more than the BF6 trailers did

Then BF6 spoke for itself when I played it then I started getting hyped

Well the reveal trailer anyway. Gameplay trailer for BF6 was a banger

[vast badger]

my rsvp doesnt work

dont know what to do

[brave herald]

I'm probably in the minority, but I wish runnin' with a knife didn't speed you up lol.

But I see. I didn't think about it slicin' through air.

[hearty kelp]

hey dozer was a pretty good addition

till they listened to the drug addicts who complain they get in melee range of the melee specialist and die

[fiery cedar]

Is there anything going on in labs? Never joined till now can I still get an invite I just signed up

[brave herald]

Also is New Sobek and Saints Quarter on launch or season 1 stuff?

[willow lance]

Sobek and Saints Quarter are launch maps

[brave herald]

nice, 9 maps at launch.
idk why but that feels huge to me xD

[willow lance]

We've seen 6 of them already, 4 in beta, 2 in preview, we don't know how Sobek, Saints and Manhattan plays though

[brave herald]

I wonder if we will, or leave it as a surprise.
I kinda hope for the latter.

[ripe thorn]

Yeah I doubt they'll show off the rest of the maps. Barely a few weeks to go. Gotta have some surprises

[still wolf]

Should've been 20

[ripe thorn]

Cod can make 20 maps for launch cos the game has cartoon graphics and no destruction

[halcyon ocean]

They haven't made Any new map's It's All the same map's every year for Cod

[spare cedar]

Got the invite for labs this friday and accepted but nothing shows in the EA app?

[still wolf]

Because everyone wants bo2

[ripe thorn]

And they tiny AF lol

I actually seen cod players complain that the new seasons map is too small for them lol

[still wolf]

Literally all ypu see "Just remaster bo2,give us bo2,bo2 the best cod, bo2 needs to happen "

You wonder why it's the same game

[halcyon ocean]

Move on from the past

[still wolf]

Personally I like the futuristic cod tbh

[still wolf]

Exactly

[still wolf]

Most of us only play 3 or 5 maps

[halcyon ocean]

Dude move on from your Childhood

[still wolf]

Wouldn't be surprised if they started adding that tbh

[still wolf]

I play other games wym

But anyways Battlefield is a fun game but it should have more maps though doesn't 9 seem too little

[ripe thorn]

They don't need to. They have their audience that blindly buys no matter what. They can keep churning out the same stuff and they'll still make money

[still wolf]

True

[ripe thorn]

To be fair they have Eastwood, Badlands and downtown remake from BFH coming in season 1 and season 2 is rumoured to be Tahla market and some others

Season 1 is probably gonna drop really soon after launch

So we'll have a decent map count by the end of the year

[still wolf]

Ohh I see

We shall see

How long EA keep it up

[chilly shore]

I wanna play mirak so bad

Modern day trench warfare

[brave herald]

and terrible maps.

[chilly shore]

Honestly we should get Terrible but fun map

[brave herald]

that is what portal is for

[chilly shore]

It makes the game interesting in different ways and make it less predictable

It could also influence our loadout in the process

[brave herald]

Just give us Shipment
-CoD kiddies 2025

[chilly shore]

Recreating Shipment in Portal when?

I can't wait for someone to recreate Nuketown

[tight prism]

Just put everyone in a box with a large plus sign in the middle of it with a point right in the dead center.

[chilly shore]

With a nuking levelution

[chilly shore]

turns head say that again?

[tight prism]

That would be map of the year.

Especially if really small. And on 128 mode.

[atomic sinew]

Just finished watching a couple of videos about the new maps and changes, I'm even more excited.

[brave herald]

same

[ripe thorn]

Well a lot of people think empire state has a terrible design but I find it really fun

I don't mind having maps like empire state. It's beautiful and chaotic. Design doesn't bother me cos it's not a large map

[brave herald]

I find Empire State fun, but had way too many players on it, in beta.

[chilly shore]

Map is terrible but beautiful especially the bridge which sadly we couldn't fight in

[brave herald]

Felt like every time I spawned, an enemy was literally around the corner.
Even if I spawned in home base lol.

[velvet kernel]

I wish they would do another Beta, for like a full week or even a month, and get this game right for release. I fear they will do the same as previous games and after release they will not fix anything wrong with balance or gameplay, the accountants will say they cant do anything more that doesn't generate revenue, and we will see jsut BS DLC after DLC while bugs and balance issues are never ever fixed

[ripe thorn]

Excited for manhattan bridge. Love how they're doing 2 maps per location

[brave herald]

Having a bunch of betas won't mean much if they don't have the time or devs to fix the issues.

[ripe thorn]

These cities/countries are massive so it's a neat idea to have 2 maps in each

[velvet kernel]

they have a dev team right now, it will be gone after release, EA doesn't nurture their games they abandon them

[ripe thorn]

Vince zampella won't let that happen

[brave herald]

and those devs, presumable, all have a job and a plate full of things to already do and fix.
Havin' a month long beta before release won't magically make their workload less, so they can fix those bugs.

it's like tellin' a car mechanic "We built a new parking lot to fill with cars for you to fix next to the last two we built. Get it done asap, thanks"

[ripe thorn]

Screw shipment. I'm making a mario kart map with jets that fall on top of you

[brave herald]

jumping puzzles, but only way to go up is blowin' up a tank from under you, and havin' it send you flyin' up.

[tidal hound]

They do. It's called LABS

[brave herald]

Technically speakin, true.

[velvet kernel]

'presumably' and then an opinion that seems naive, ok whatever. I have worked as a game developer and content creator for a game company, its called structuring the workload to focus on product quality

[ripe thorn]

Labs testing is going on as we speak

Idk how they could test stuff even more than that lol

[velvet kernel]

went to college for product design and marketing, then for 3d modeling, not just making shit up have had a desk on a shipped title

so then why any beta at all? to test real user loads that other development cannot simulate. I have also long ago worked in hardware and operated systems to test telecom routers throwing like 500,000 signals at once at new hardware

but tell me how I dont know shit

[ripe thorn]

At the end of the day. People complained things won't get worked on or fixed ever when labs didn't exist. Now that we have labs people will still say the same thing. Be pessimistic if you want but you gotta give them credit for having the BF4 CTE program turn into a full blown monthly testing program inviting players from all over the world to Polish up the game before launch

[velvet kernel]

I am playing BF2042 right now, there is nothing you can say that will give me confidence in EA, and that is due to their own efforts

[tidal hound]

They already did that. If anything, a second beta week will have less players than the first

I personally wouldnt bother even downloading a second beta and just wait for release

[unreal grove]

I would definitely appreciate a second beta- I never got the chance to try the first lol

[velvet kernel]

lol at that weird knee jerk lie "I wouldnt even downlaod a2nd beta and jsut wait for release' like are you a bot? or work for EA? becuase that is so BS

[unreal grove]

If the game feels bad I'd much rather test it before spending ~$70 on it

[brave herald]

and I got a masters in the field and worked on a few popular games before.

That still don't change the fact that havin' an open beta to find "more things to fix" a month before release, won't help.
Whether it's a week or a month (despite the game releasin' in a few weeks).

Their plates are filled. They have on-goin' testin' as we speak.
And they are makin' changes accordin' to that testin', based on what their directors think is priority.

[thorny pivot]

So, how many days left for BF6? Just forgot something.

[velvet kernel]

unless you are paid to be here you would download a 2nd beta in a heartbeat

[unreal grove]

23

[lucid mist]

you say EA abandons their games as you are playing a game that got 4 years of support

[long bolt]

id rather wait for the release, no point in having our progress wiped again

[tidal hound]

No? I don't even play beta tests that much at all. I usually only get the max level and all rewards and im done so I dont burn myself out for the full game

[thorny pivot]

Alright. I'm getting ready for it on the 10th.

[tidal hound]

Not everyone has nothing else to do in their life

[ripe thorn]

This guy doesn't realise that all the constant monthly lab testing has been doing exactly what he wants. The build we saw in the open beta is night and day from what it is now

[brave herald]

I also didn't tell you, that you didn't know nothin', so you can leave the attitude out of the conversation, or find your way out of it.
Don't really care which option you decide to take.

[velvet kernel]

if they find issues and retain release date it would head start the first patches, that is jsut reality, i get its fanboy appriction circle jerk in here whatever, anyone that played BF2042 is warry, you guys trying to gloss anything and everything are just weird EA earned its rep

[thorny pivot]

Just bought the standard edition for Xbox Series console.

[velvet kernel]

the amount of glazzing in here makes the hope BF6 is EA doing things different seem less certian that is for sure

[brave herald]

I haven't played Battlefield since BF3.
And I couldn't give a fuck about anything EA puts out.
So no it ain't fanboy "appriction" circle jerking.

You were just uninformed and got called out.

[thorny pivot]

I played the first beta, it was great.

[ripe thorn]

Another open beta is so much less productive than the ongoing labs testing right now

[tidal hound]

Obviously you are a paid EA shill otherwise you wouldnt lie about that /s

[velvet kernel]

whatever, I honeslty hope its good, I honestly think it might be crap given how BF2042 plays and hwo they refused to fix ANYTHING

[lucid mist]

tfw people enjoy a games free beta and get excited for it

[velvet kernel]

and bye, have your happy fun time sorry to disturb the circle jerk

[long bolt]

not to mention the time left till launch, an open beta would have no affect on quality...

[thorny pivot]

And looks like highly detailed, too.

[brave herald]

The only thing people should worry bout, is how EA will find ways to throw monetization down our throats to make up for all the money they blew on marketin' the game.

[velvet kernel]

oh I was all praise for BF6, then played 100 hours of BF2042 and now I lothe EA, hate them

[long bolt]

thats your fault for playing 2042 X)

[thorny pivot]

Jeez. That's a lot.

[tidal hound]

You played 100 hours of 2042 in the last month, and you hate it? Lmao

[brave herald]

congrats you played what is heralded as one of the worst games in the franchise.
Presumably, recently at that, without lookin' into it.

[tidal hound]

You can max out the free BP in like 20 hours.

So no "it was all for the BP" bs

[brave herald]

I don't even care for the cosmetics, you can't make me play that shit.
Even if you sell it for $2.

[golden minnow]

Hello, if I have the labs on my ps5 library and has been there since may am I still able to join active tests?? @shadow snow

[long bolt]

#battlefield-labs-discussion

[velvet kernel]

only if you play coop and not try to unlock against real people online, which yes I stoped doing that and went to coop to start unlocking weapons to have better chance online, and then started noticing all the absolute BS in BF2042, every little detail is wrong, the devs didn't play the franchise, never fired a weapon in real life, and didnt care about the FPS genre, and the reason is glazzers like in here stroke them off to mail in crappy work

[ripe thorn]

No

[tidal hound]

But coop doesnt progress BP because of the XP cap

[thorny pivot]

Well. I hope BF6 will become a great game until gets release on Oct 10th. Get your guns ready! And good luck out there guys!

[lucid mist]

and you played 100 hours? didn't know we had a masochist here

[tidal hound]

And normally playing the game is the best XP gain

[ripe thorn]

Bro you're willingly swimming in a pile of dogpoop. Then you're whining that the next game is probably gonna turn out the same. Just uninstall 2042 and then talk to us about BF6

[velvet kernel]

like side ported muzzle break in real life allows gas from round to escape laterally and backward and reducces horizontal and opposing recoild, in the game it is reveresed on every single weapon, if there are side ports it reduces vertical instead of horizontal, and the muzzle break model with the 45 angled upward ports that would reduce vertical recoil, in game that reduces horizontal, and its that way on every single weapon, its jsut bizare

[sick axle]

why can't we play on battlefield anymore ?

[thorny pivot]

Which one?

[ember scaffold]

Would be nice to have A-10s like in past Battlefields and in Insurgency Sandstorm

[ripe thorn]

I think they added that to 2042 but we don't talk about that game

[sick axle]

@thorny pivot 2042 and bf6

[thorny pivot]

I still have that game before. It's okay.

[ember scaffold]

It’s alright, not good but not bad either

I love the big maps

[sick axle]

[ripe thorn]

It ended up okay in the end. Playable. It's just gonna make BF6 feel 1000 times better 🔥

[thorny pivot]

Almost broke my friggin Xbox console while playing BF4.

[ember scaffold]

Yup ofc

Hopefully BF6 got more big maps where we can definitely use proper combined arms

[sick axle]

piss off this anti cheat shit don't want to activate

[bitter sun]

Does BF stand for Boyfriend? Where’s all the femboys at

[thorny pivot]

?

I don't get it.

[sick axle]

How do you activate this shit?

[ember scaffold]

What anticheat, if it’s for the battlefield labs you need to do some bios tinkering 💀

[sick axle]

but I don't have it in the bios

[tight prism]

All in game.

[unreal grove]

what are y'all going to be playing?

⭕ open weapons
❌ closed weapons

I'm really curious about this one lol, can't do a poll unfortunately

[tidal hound]

It's a trap. Anyone that selects O will get lynched

[brave herald]

Deserved, CoD Kiddies.

[ember scaffold]

Open weapons for realism (kinda)

[brave herald]

Gunna be real realistic when everyone is runnin' around with the same exact loadout.

[ember scaffold]

Cant wait

[unreal grove]

I personally really prefer open weapons, everyone can just play what they want to. I also think BF4's approach makes sense too.

[ripe thorn]

Bro someone chose open and closed lol

[ember scaffold]

They issue m4s to most combat roles in the US military, even tankers and engineers

[unreal grove]

yes I did to start the poll

[brave herald]

I can see the titles now.
"BF6 PERFECT LOADOUT! 85-0 EVERY GAME WITH THIS!"

[ripe thorn]

Oh that was you that asked the question lol my bad

[brave herald]

you can remove yours now that others clicked it.

[tidal hound]

And then the build itself will be absolute shit

[brave herald]

It's just gunna be Sniper + Engi + Frag + RPG.

[unreal grove]

good point actually

[lucid mist]

open weapons are in 2042 and this was never an issue

[tidal hound]

95% of COD "meta build" video's have the worst attachments in the game istg

[lucid mist]

unless a weapon was unabashedly busted (which happens with every BF game every so often) people use tons of loadouts

[brave herald]

gotta get those 360 noscopes, while campin' 500m away from literally every objective.
With random pop-shots at helis and jets with the rpg.
And then they clip the 1/100 hits they actually got.

[ripe thorn]

Honestly just lock sniper to recon and keep the rest open if you want. Just call it a day there then everybody wins

[lucid mist]

snipers suck without recon perks

people dont realize how useful hold breath is

[brave herald]

didn't stop em in beta.

[lucid mist]

I saw like 4 people in the entire beta using snipers while not being recon

[sick axle]

Damn, before BF6, BF2042 was working very well. You released BF6 and it ruined everything for me.

[brave herald]

lucky you

[tidal hound]

Assault Sniper can still hold breath. Recon can just do it longer.

[lucid mist]

why would assualt use a sniper lol

for the beacon?

[tidal hound]

If you're holding breath for an extended period you are probably ass

For the beacon. And maybe secondary m4

[ripe thorn]

I don't think it was until firestorm leaks came out that the sniper with rpg clips came out

[civic scarab]

Or they just have good lungs

[ember scaffold]

We already got running and sliding in BF6, it’s kinda like CoD, movement-wise

[lucid mist]

blud has never played a battlefield game

[brave herald]

Running and slidin' ain't special.
It's how people use it that brings out the CoD comments.

[sick axle]

And is there no one who can explain to us how to do it seriously?

[lucid mist]

I cant believe they added running to battlefield the franchise is dead

[ember scaffold]

I played all of them except Hardline tbh

[ripe thorn]

Sliding can be done by humans in real life btw. Cod didn't start it

[dark owl]

I too think that BF6 plays like CoD movement wise, and even gunplay has some similarities

[ripe thorn]

It'll hurt your legs but it can be done lol

[dark owl]

and I've been playing BF and CoD since the dawn of time

[tidal hound]

bf and cod has always been similar ever since bfbc2

[ember scaffold]

It’s not a typical battlefield doctrine but can be applied sometimes

[tidal hound]

Even the coveted bf4

[ember scaffold]

Thats why they got knee pads, but I guess the shins will still kinda hurt

[dark owl]

I don't think cod deserves hate btw, the main problem is Activision

[ember scaffold]

Yeah I like the zombies

[unreal grove]

BF4 can kinda do a bellyflop slide

[lucid mist]

cod as a formula is fine but people tend to get sick of the same damn formula every tyear

[dark owl]

it really bothers me because I genuinely like the game, but Activision keeps making me not wanna play

[ripe thorn]

Cod is safe. BF is innovation

[ember scaffold]

They are getting lazy and complacent because they sell a lot for decades (500 million total copies as of 2023)

But it’s nice to see BF6 challenging them this year

[dark owl]

I don't even see BF as a competitor against CoD, the direction is different

[ripe thorn]

Since battlefield innovate with every game and takes 3-4 years to release I think if this game was as bad as 2042 then we mightve been saying goodbye to the franchise. EA gives them a lot of trust to not pump out the same game yearly

[dark owl]

some people might play both (like me) but in the majority of players, they tend to stick to one or another

[ember scaffold]

Both have different approach Yup

One is large scale combined arms and basically total War battle doctrine

While the other is just your small scale PvP with fancy movement

[dark owl]

that's why I said earlier today that I genuinely don't think BF6 will outsell CoD BO7

[ember scaffold]

They have their own unique traits and flaws

[dark owl]

who buys cod will keep buying cod, cuz that's what they play every year

[tidal hound]

I think most BF players have played multiple COD titles. A lot of COD players have never even touched BF. I know a few COD people who have never even heard of BF until bf6

[ember scaffold]

It might have the BF1 scenario where it outsells CoD IW but only on the first year

[dark owl]

this is true too

[dark owl]

did it outsell cod? I wasn't paying much attention to things that year

[ember scaffold]

BF1 is the only most profitable battlefield ever

But BF6 probably will be the same or even more profitable

[sick axle]

don't answer especially

[ripe thorn]

It won't but I think it has a shot at getting BF1 numbers or better because COD players really enjoyed the beta and they can still play small versions of all the maps in domination e.c.t and the free BR will probably entice more to buy the game for multiplayer

[tidal hound]

First year, Infinite outsold bf1, but as of now, bf1 has more sales

[ember scaffold]

IIRC it did

[tidal hound]

bf1 more longevity (thanks to server browser)

[dark owl]

okay it really did first year, but that was a different case, CoD was in a pretty rough spot

[sick axle]

Go ahead, it's fine, we ask a question, not even able to answer, I'll get rid of everything, it clears up space on the hard drive. bye

[reef mist]

It's crazy how every single battlefield game is banger.

[ember scaffold]

Yeah and generally IW was disliked due to the Space War theme even tho the campaign and other content actually considered great even by CoD fans

They just find the whole CoD in Space theme ridiculous

[ember steeple]

Do we know yet what the other rewards in the 2042 BP will be for BF6?

[sick axle]

not one who answers

[lucid mist]

banners and titles mainly

[dark owl]

I mean, subjective
2024, V and Hardline had some major popularity problems

[sick axle]

You should say if it annoys you to respond.

[tidal hound]

If you are talking about secure boot, a video guide on youtube is going to be much more helpful than any of us

[ember steeple]

Tf kinda take is this lmfao

[sick axle]

@tidal hound I don't have secure boot you idiot.

[reef mist]

The best one

[ember scaffold]

Not true

I remember the BFV hate lmao

Female soldier with prosthetic arm in WW2?

[reef mist]

Really?

[tidal hound]

"Why does nobody help me when i immediately insult them for trying to help me?"

[sharp sigil]

Everyone has their own opinion.. I personally don't think they were all great..

[ember steeple]

Pretty sure it's an attempt at rage bait

[dark owl]

do you live in a cave?

[ember scaffold]

BFV got the Infinite Warfare treatment lol

[sick axle]

@ember scaffold I've said it 40 times that he doesn't want to.

[reef mist]

It's fun so how is it not banger lol

[reef mist]

I just don't hang on to things from 7 years ago lol

[desert hound]

idk how to feel that bf6 might not have a server browser, I mean the server browser is a bf staple

[reef mist]

Also don't know about them to be fr

[lucid mist]

it has a server browser just not persistant official servers

[sick axle]

@ember scaffold and there is no one who can explain how to do it

[dark owl]

you can indeed have liked evey title and truly think that all of them are bangers, but you know, it wasn't exactly like that in the playerbase general opinion

[final chasm]

btw no one has an opinion here

[desert hound]

hmmm i heard that the browser is going to be mostly hidden in portal with means most players wont bother with it

[lucid mist]

stop listening to dumb redditors

[reef mist]

I know 2042 is like the halo infinite equivalent but even 2042 is fun is pump full of content now adays, so was it more of a bad at launch and fixed itself later thing? Bf5 especially has always tickled me in ways I didn't know I could be

[ember scaffold]

We can say that also to IW and Vanguard anyway

Or any bad game at launch but better later on (Cyberpunk and NMS)

[sick axle]

how do you activate this thing

[lucid mist]

bfv server browser is impossible to find yet no one says anything about that one

[desert hound]

yeah bf 2042 post launch isn't that bad

[dark owl]

2042 nowadays is an ok game
but I like to complain so I usually say that this game makes me want to swallow a whole jug of fabric softener

[sick axle]

I'm going to bother you until I'm told how to do it.

[tidal hound]

Because even those that do find it can still join official servers crossmatched with matchmaking players. If they were separated, bf5 browser would be dead

[reef mist]

I like how it has the other games recreated in it

[ember scaffold]

Bro better off googling it or asking on Steam or EA forums

Where devs or technical support probably will see it and Help

[reef mist]

How is he just now having the secure boot issue? Where were you on the night of august 7th?

[ember scaffold]

Hes probably trying BF labs, lucky Guy

[dark owl]

portal will be also present in bf6, it's one of my favorite features too

[ember scaffold]

Theres gonna be cheaters on PC and the devs confirmed they cant prevent it, so I will definitely end up playing on Portal most of the time too

[reef mist]

I seriously can't wait to see what people cook up in there. "87 shipment variants launch day"

[dark owl]

there are as much cheaters on console, with cronos and shit like that

[reef mist]

I'll never forget people flying around on halo 3 on the 360 pissing me off

[lament furnace]

For a gun that does 33 damage per shot, does it kill a player in 3 shots or does it leave them with 1 health?

[sick axle]

@reef mist where I was at the same point as it means that the anti-cheat doesn't want to activate

[tidal hound]

Matchmaking is going to put you with other console players most of the time. With like 5% of them being PC players, maybe.
And then you've got the <1% of PC cheaters actually getting in and playing a match

[dark owl]

it deals actually 33.5

it can three shot

[ember scaffold]

Yup true

I think it’s inevitable

CoD just got more cheaters because it’s popular but BF6 will definitely have them too for sure

Theres some Steam groups and communities where they are discussing on possible cheats to use in BF6 already

M*fs already prepping up for launch

[lament furnace]

King

[ember scaffold]

So portal is the only choice for me

[reef mist]

Why not

[sick axle]

I couldn't play the beta and even 2042 doesn't want to launch anymore.

[reef mist]

Secure booooot

[dark owl]

I can't quite understand what is the point of cheating in an online game. You are straight up announcing that you are incapable of getting good at the game

[tidal hound]

Nono. He called me an idiot for assuming it was secure boot

[ember scaffold]

Try the secure boot method

And verify files as well

[reef mist]

They're just losers that's it really

[sick axle]

I don't have that in the BIOS, you understand?

[sharp sigil]

Whats your motherboard?

[reef mist]

It's probably called security keys

[long bolt]

win at any cost, or people just like to sh** on other players, its disgusting

[ember scaffold]

Depends Theyre cheating because they like trolling people while some or probably most are just lazy to grind and get better stats

[tidal hound]

If you dont have it in BIOS your motherboard is most likely way too old

[sick axle]

@sharp sigil b550

[sharp sigil]

Search on google "b550 motherboard secure boot"

[sick axle]

I have a quick start

[ember scaffold]

Do we need to guide the Guy step by step huh

[sharp sigil]

Not sure why he didn't look it up in the first place

[long bolt]

here...

https://help.ea.com/en/articles/technical-issues/secure-boot

[ember scaffold]

Well he definitely is an idiom 😉

Joke

I’m loving the Mirak Valley map

[sick axle]

I don't have that on my BIOS

[dark owl]

both cases are a complete shame

[sharp sigil]

Maybe try updating your bios.. there should be tutorials you can follow.

[sick axle]

@sharp sigil I don't have a quick start

@sharp sigil i don't have secure boot i have quick start

[wraith canopy]

Yes i'm so glad about that crossplay for consoles only feature lol
Can't wait to enjoy the game without cheaters xD

[dark owl]

as I said before, there as as much cheaters on console. Cronos and shit like that

isolating the platforms don't help that much

[wraith canopy]

Uff not that many as pc cheaters i suppose
At least i know nobody which use such hardware

[dark owl]

it is

there are a bunch of mfckers buying this hardware for idk 20 bucks

[long bolt]

might want to stop talking about it so people that dont know, dont go buy one you know X)

[wraith canopy]

Well thats pitiful lol dunno maybe it depends on the country also but i never met someone in germany which had such hardware lol

[dark owl]

yeah probably

[junior sky]

cronos is particulairly bad, if you use it in combination with that [redacted] image recognition aimbot your quite literally never getting banned

like genuinely fuck cronos users

[wraith canopy]

Its cheating which is bad in general lol
If you want to play like that go offline! And stop destroy other peoples game which they paid money for..

[dark owl]

[reef mist]

Battlebit remastered

[sick axle]

disgusting I can't even play 2042 seriously anymore

[edgy bone]

If you have the actual model of your motherboard I can pull your manual

[sick axle]

the only place I can play is on the 5

[edgy bone]

Well I tried 🤷‍♂️

[sick axle]

your anti-cheat doesn't bother on 5

[tidal hound]

You are going to be matched with console players 95% of the time because crossplay on is still console preference.
Less than 1% of PC cheaters actually get through and play a match. So you've got 1% of that 5% PC players you'll see.

[sick axle]

lol

[tidal hound]

Meanwhile Cronus is much more popular and easily available for anyone, plug and play

[long bolt]

good thing anti cheats can easly pick up scripters

[tidal hound]

Crossplay off you are only going to be matching with others with crossplay off

[floral mesa]

Please make the sledgehammer 3-4 swings. 2 is insane

[chilly shore]

Mariocart in Battlefield 6

need for speed in Battlefield 6

[sick axle]

so on the 5 it’s fine since you don’t have anyone basically it works lol

[edgy bone]

Like I said, get the actual mobo model number and I'll pull your manual but you seem more intent on complaining than trying to fix

[tidal hound]

I see people claim cheater all of the time. Especially in COD. Your 1.03 k/d ass (in COD) isnt getting sbmm'd against cheaters when my 5k/d rarely ever does.

[edgy bone]

I love getting called a cheater tho
Always feels good

[tidal hound]

I get it almost daily

[edgy bone]

Ok you don't gotta flex on us

[tidal hound]

"How did you know I was coming"
Bro was tac sprinting with dad sneeze decible footsteps

[edgy bone]

I listen to music loud af when I play and I can still pick out exactly where they are
Enemy footsteps are so loud it's amazing how often you can sneak up on someone

[strong echo]

U guys just hacking

If they had made this a third beta week it would've been even better for advertising though

[tidal hound]

Too many beta's lead to burn out

[molten halo]

Is that a mig that pax armada has?

And... A eurofighter typhoon I think?

Yo they have uavs?

Are they predator drones?

Like do they have missiles

[foggy sparrow]

If I die it’s automatically a cheater in cod

[remote laurel]

I am so bummed about no console only crossplay.

[foggy sparrow]

Pc sucks

[sharp sigil]

PC is the best

[foggy sparrow]

Pc stands for piece of crap

[sharp sigil]

Just wait until you're able to afford yourself a nice PC. You'll most likely never go back to console

[foggy sparrow]

Nah

Die hard PlayStation fan

[long bolt]

time will tell 😉

[remote laurel]

Playing on console has nothing to do with being able to afford a PC, it's because of parity. Everyone is on the same hardware using the same input. It's balanced. No console only crossplay just throws that out of the window, and for no good reason.

[foggy sparrow]

Ayo no

[tidal hound]

Besides, consoles costs more in the long run

[long bolt]

pros and cons for both, pc isnt just a gaming machine, which tends to attract people as they get older

[sharp sigil]

You're right I shouldnt have assumed his situation. I was just saying that because that was how it was for me. I used to play on Xbox throughout middleschool and highchool and used to wish I could afford one. Once I was able to I never went back lol

[spare socket]

with subscriptions like gamepass for online? yeah overtime maybe it depends on if the user pays for that

I paid for gamepass ultimate for my console and pc for years regardless

the main reason I like playing single player games that play well on a controller on xbox is due to quick resume (a feature built into microsoft's OS for series X)

[ripe thorn]

Are you saying this because of the recent post about it from insider gaming?

[spare socket]

isn't it input based?

As in controller and mnk are seperated

[remote laurel]

That article was innaccurate. There is no console only crossplay, which is why I'm bummed.

[spare socket]

And you can only cross between mnk and controller with a group

[tidal hound]

Huh? Did that article purposly misquote the devs or something?

[ripe thorn]

No the devs fucked up by saying it was a thing then another dev corrected them by saying actually it's not

[tidal hound]

Ah I see

[ripe thorn]

But I have good news for you

[remote laurel]

I have no idea. All I know is I read the article and I was super pumped as a result, as I believe console only crossplay should be an industry standard for FPS games. Then it came out today that the article was wrong, there is no console only crossplay, and now I'm wondering whether or not I'll even buy the game.

[ripe thorn]

Crossplay ON has long been confirmed to prioritise console players. Alexa Christophe confirmed this a while ago

[tidal hound]

You are going to be matched with console players 95% of the time because crossplay on is still console preference.
Less than 1% of PC cheaters actually get through and play a match. So you've got 1% of that 5% PC players you'll see.
I gotta just start copy pasting this whenever someone complains

And besides, it's not like BF is a series that heavily relies on good aim to be successful, so having the "better input" (which console can use anyway) isn't an issue here. That's more of an issue on COD, but even then not really. More like Overwatch, Marvel Rivals etc is when input difference matters

[edgy bone]

lmao 1.710

https://x.com/Lex_mate/status/1951700052625518667?t=oJu2sMMWGJaNM6eVHPRg1w&s=19

You can breathe a sigh of relief now

[wicked tangle]

unreal how much they nerfed the slide and movement

dogshit complete

[unreal grove]

wdym by this??

[tidal hound]

BF has always been a series where positioning and map awareness is more important than just having god aim

[unreal grove]

I'm glad they reduced the movement tbh. Call me a purist but not every game needs it to be more slippery than a trout in a butter factory

[cunning wedge]

idk man increase the dolphin dive

thats all i ask idgaf about slide cancelling MWIII is shit and MWII is better idc

[wicked tangle]

I think the game was already pretty slow and they just reduced it evenmore

[spark drift]

how much was it nerfed ..

[wicked tangle]

https://x.com/EndersFPS/status/1968502787106283964

cancel your preorder amounts

[ripe thorn]

I totally forgot you can dolphin dive in this game lol

[cunning wedge]

it's kind of unusable cause you jump like 12 centimeters

[ripe thorn]

That's probably why I forgot immediately. I would've used it once then never again lol

[wicked tangle]

battlefield is not a tac shooter

[spark drift]

bro wtf remove the slide atp

[wicked tangle]

literally ridic right

[spark drift]

you move like 1.5 feet lmaooo

[wicked tangle]

so much worse than 3 and 4 for movement and they want to "go back"

knew they didnt get it

[edgy bone]

holy shit

[spark drift]

even 2042 movement is better lolll

[wicked tangle]

so insane

[spark drift]

oh my god you go slow as shit now

its not even gonna help the people complaining is the worst part

[quartz fossil]

Bruh the fucking tourists butchered the game's movement before it even came out

[wicked tangle]

its so nuts people who are gonna play for one hour every 2 weeks just kneecapped this game

[quartz fossil]

Classic

[ripe thorn]

Wonder what the playtesters are thinking. Curious if they'll mention that in the feedback

They might revert it by the time the BR comes out

[spark drift]

they just had to f up the movement, the open beta was perfect

also 17+ discord and we cant curse ?

how soft is the world holy this is why no one talks in game

[wicked tangle]

I agree it was perfect

otherwise this game has no longevity at all imo

[ripe thorn]

You can't say fuck? How not?

[spark drift]

remove the ? and say it by it self

[cunning wedge]

no lol

[spark drift]

the auto mod is trash lmao

[ripe thorn]

Will I get banned if I remove the ?

[cunning wedge]

2042 can literally go unresponsive and you end up standing still cause the game is overwhelmed by inputs and animations

[spark drift]

im not a mod why are you asking me

[spark drift]

never happened to me

[ripe thorn]

Well you seem to know a lot about what happens when you curse in the server so figured you'd be the person to know 🤣

What you mean auto mod?

Test complete ✅

[spark drift]

holy shit they also nerfed the skins

[cunning wedge]

oh shut up

[spark drift]

No

[cunning wedge]

we're not jumping on the glowy skins train

"funny skins are good actually" no they are not, learn what art style is

[spark drift]

im talking about the phantom edition skin not the green ones

[wicked tangle]

idrgaf about the skins but the movement might be a deal breaker

[spare socket]

they really only heavily changed one skin and frankly imo that skin could've kept the GPNVG-18

the GPNVG-18 is really only used by special forces frankly

But I wouldn't mind it

[spark drift]

exactly the 2x looks so much worse then 4x

[spare socket]

tbf that thing is worth like 50k dollars alone

Seeing it all over the battlefield isn't realllly something that's normal.

But again I wouldn't mind it

My buddy actually owns one of those lol

[cunning wedge]

ok nvm @spark drift phantom edition really aint worth a damn now lol

[spare socket]

I'm debating getting it still

Cuz no joke I'm still gonna get the battlepass anyways which is likely 10 bucks

[long bolt]

https://forums.ea.com/discussions/battlefield-6-general-discussion-en/the-modification-of-the-phantom-skin-is-frustrating/12579378

the changes to the skins 🤷‍♂️

[cunning wedge]

battle pass might be somewhat worth it

i was mostly interested in the m433 and ESR skins ngl

[spare socket]

My main bit is that you're basically spending 20 bucks for a weapons pack, tier skip for pass, and cometics pack net

which is why I'm debating it

[long bolt]

i wonder what the "exclusive unlocks" are

[ember scaffold]

Yeah the new changes are worse

I really would’ve preferred the panoramic nvg

BO7 did the opposite with the new Vault Edition looking great than the old ones

[spare socket]

Tbh I like the color changes

I just don't like the assault change

It was definetly the most unique and GPNVG is a pretty unique piece of equipment (even if expensive)

I like the tone down on the red and more black

[ember scaffold]

Yeah true

Might cancel phantom edition and get only the standard. I don’t like the changes wtf

[spark drift]

man the open beta rewards look better then this 😭

[ember scaffold]

Why tf would they do that shit that’s false advertising bro 💀

[cunning wedge]

BO7 vault edition skins are still abysmal

[ember scaffold]

I’m expecting panoramic nvg bro

[spark drift]

read the small print its not false advertising

[cunning wedge]

they got NOTHING on the FJX Cinder skins in MWII

[ember scaffold]

It looks different

[cunning wedge]

they'll never make me hate you MWII (game was objectively bad but it at least had a spine)

[spare socket]

Tbh I think I'm getting it still cuz exclusive cosmetics for 20 bucks+early access to weapons at launch

[spark drift]

read the small print once again, they say the skins in the image can change at any time

[ember scaffold]

The 141 Ghost skins are silly but the weapon vaults are ok

[spare socket]

Ik for a fact I'm running the bf4 engineer skin you get in the 2042 pass tho

[cunning wedge]

the weapon vault was PEAK, the 141 skins sucked

[ember scaffold]

Yeah, my preorder can change also sorry

[cunning wedge]

MWIII's were ugly as hell, BO6... i wont even bother

[spare socket]

I'm a controverial person. I did not care for any of the MP in cod post MW2 2009

[ember scaffold]

I like the operator skins on both games

[spare socket]

I liked zombies in black ops 1-3 tho

[cunning wedge]

"controversial" this is actually a decent take

[spare socket]

Oh you see. I disliked black ops 1 and 2

[cunning wedge]

though missing out on BO2

could you imagine if BO7 actually stood up and resembled BO2 :))))))) never happening tho

[spare socket]

Campaign was the usual stuff for cod campaigns, never been too big on them

Zombies was good

[ember scaffold]

Those are actually great games

Most CoD players consider them the best in the series

[spare socket]

Again I'm controversial in that department ig

[ember scaffold]

Yeah we all got tastes so np

[spare socket]

I liked COD when it had the balls to innovate with each entry mechanically.

[ember scaffold]

They did innovate on some stuff but got lazy on other stuff

I like the BO6 campaign
And zombies for example but hated the MP and Warzone

[cunning wedge]

my hot take is that MWII had a spine and tried to do something

[spare socket]

The best innovations cod has had since vince zampella and Jason west were fired by activision and most of the veteran staff who worked on cod since the first game left the franchise has had 3 major innovations:
1: zombies (the main thing that kept me coming back)
2: skin progression in black ops 1/2
3: Gunplay (especially in mw2019, but idc about that)

[cunning wedge]

MWIII has cooler movement sure but it had no identity

[spare socket]

of these I only cared about zombies. I don't care about the gunplay or skin progression that much

If vince zampella and jason were still in COD their next cod would literally have been titanfall 1/2

[ember scaffold]

Yeah the zombies always make me come back, like the undead

[spare socket]

instead COD is out here copying the people who made titanfall 1/2 and doing it badly

[ripe thorn]

As someone who gives zero fucks about the phantom edition. I just had a look at the changes and I gotta say. That's pretty scummy to advertise something for the most expensive edition of your game and then say HA SIKE

[cunning wedge]

yeah

[ember scaffold]

With BF, what makes me come back is the combined arms stuff and large maps

[cunning wedge]

not getting phantom edition lol

[spare socket]

Like I would love to imagine an alternate reality where Jason and Vince weren't fired from activision

and Titanfall's soul was injected into the COD franchise as a sub franchise

Instead of the soulless slop that is black ops 3, infinite warfare, and advanced warfare

[ember scaffold]

Same I will probably cancel and get the standard instead

[cunning wedge]

i hear infinite warfare had a good campaign

[cunning wedge]

i haven't even preordered yet

[ember scaffold]

I don’t like the new changes to the Phantom edition operator skins

[spare socket]

I played it and I will say it's the best of the COD campaigns

But that's not a high bar imo

[ripe thorn]

That campaign was freaking awesome

[cunning wedge]

ghosts might actually have been the worst from what i gather

bad mp, abysmal campaign and a weird aliens mode

[spare socket]

cod campaigns lack interesting level design and enemy variety.
They also don't have great themes or narratives imo.

What they do have is extremely well made action set pieces and really fun/neat characters.

[cunning wedge]

nvm nothing is worse than vanguard

speaking of campaigns

[spare socket]

The one cod campaign with the most enemy variety/level design (and it's not much imo) is infinite warfare

[ripe thorn]

I just played infinite warfare campaign for the first time about a year ago actually. Couldn't believe how good it was lol

[ember scaffold]

It does

Tbh IW is not a bad game

People are just tired of the sci-fi and futuristic direction that CoD was going to at that time

[spare socket]

and titanfall 2 still dogs on it

[cunning wedge]

does anyone like... have any expectations for the BF6 campaign

[spare socket]

I disagree. The zombies and MP are bad imo

It just does the usual: ah yes let's copy titanfall 2 without injecting any innovation into this formula

[ember scaffold]

Well you got your controversial take

[spare socket]

if anything it limits the formula

[ember scaffold]

They did copy Titanfall 2 yup

[ripe thorn]

Eh. As long as it has fun spectacle I'm not too bothered if the story is meh. It'll be a nice warmup for multiplayer

[spare socket]

Cod can't stick to its 3 lane invisible wall map design and sandbox ideas while trying to copy titanfall 2...

it leads to a sandbox and map set that doesn't emphasize the mechanics.

And frankly the momentum in that game isn't even remotely close to as good

[cunning wedge]

no bf campaign has really been... memorable

[spare socket]

except bf1 war stories and the last tiger in bf5

[ember scaffold]

Hopefully they revert the changes to the phantom squad skins

[ripe thorn]

BF3 jet mission is my favorite

[spare socket]

I wish more campaigns did what bf1 and the last tiger did

shorter narratives that are tight with neat themes of war with characters for as long as you want them to be around.

While incorporating unique level design to those settings (unfortunately the enemy ai/variety is a bit dog water tho)

[cunning wedge]

they wont

[ember scaffold]

Hopefully we get to control vehicles in campaign yup

[cunning wedge]

cancel that phantom edition

[spare socket]

I was never going to play assault anyways ngl

[ripe thorn]

I feel like BF6 campaign might just be similar to BF3 if anything. No memorable characters or anything like that but some cool moments maybe?

[cunning wedge]

i might like, preorder standard rn tho imma run out of money

[spare socket]

I might do it for the spawn beacon on occasions

[ember scaffold]

I think they’re in BF Labs

Can anyone confirm if the phantom edition skins look different there from promo art?

[spare socket]

they can't

Contractually, they can't

[wicked tangle]

weee????

[spare socket]

[wicked tangle]

fix the movement now dev.

[spare socket]

I think the movement changes are fine tbh

[sand spear]

Just saw jack frags playing mirak valley destroying villages with his tank bf6 is absolutely insane

[spark drift]

they dont even got real mods to watch the chat what makes you think a dev will be in here

[spare socket]

I also saw hiim level an entire building in 4-5 hammer swings

that hammer needs some serious adjustments lmao

[sand spear]

So sick 😎

[spare socket]

fyi that hammer is a melee weapon every class can use

[ripe thorn]

Thor role playing

[sand spear]

Nah leveling a city with a hammer would be cool

[spare socket]

it's not fun when 64 people can do it at once

☠️

it ruins the map design of the game too quickly

[sand spear]

War is war

[ripe thorn]

Watch them add a thor skin

[spare socket]

And a sledge hammer shouldn't level a large building in 4-5 swings ☠️

[marsh bough]

is labs live? I had access before but can't figure out how to get in again

[wicked tangle]

he just made a typo saying we cant do it and i clicked back in right before he changed it so i just was just doin a lil gag

[ripe thorn]

Did you try setting it to wumbo?

[spare socket]

what about jumbo

[ripe thorn]

There is no jumbo in wumbo. Haven't you read the study of wumbology?

[spare socket]

[ripe thorn]

Oh God I just got a warning from ea bot

[spare socket]

I'm stopping now

Please don't strike me down bot I'm begging you

[reef bolt]

dwarfmaxxing

[ripe thorn]

Is this the bot that guy was saying earlier you can't say swears

[reef bolt]

everyone should run sledge and start hitting buildings

[spare socket]

We're playing reverse fortnite out here

[reef bolt]

i am john battlefield and this is my trusty sledgehammer

[ripe thorn]

How do I even know what gave me that warning lol was it spongebob related? 🤣

[spare socket]

yk what this reminds me of

you are going to love this come to #streams-and-videos

[ripe thorn]

ok

[spare socket]

@ripe thorn thoughts?

[ripe thorn]

Omg that is PEAK LOL

How am I just now seeing this

[shrewd abyss]

what changes

[ripe thorn]

I'm sharing that with everyone I know now lol

If they don't play battlefield I'm gonna show them the real trailer then show them that one right after 🤣

[spare socket]

lmao

[faint lintel]

Nerf that sledge hammer wth is that lol

[spare socket]

I still remember in like highschool or something sharing that around it was so funny. Ancient times

[ripe thorn]

Spongebob lends itself so well to memes

[spare socket]

I kinda understand why its so destructive tho tbh

I'm very unsure how they can adjust it easily

[faint lintel]

Ya not really anyone is gonna use it anyways

[spare socket]

The bf6 destruction system has this thing where it does 2 key things different from prior ones:
object model destruction: for some objects it replaces the model with more broken ones rather than a physics engine
Building chain destruction: for building assets these ones break and chain the destruction to linked pieces to a certain value.

the latter causes this effect and idk how they tune it down

because based on how destructive X is you get Y chains

but if the hammer isn't destructive enough it won't even budge a hole through a building easily it would take like 2-3 swings

It's weird to say the least. I think opting for the latter outcome is the better of the two tho

It is a melee weapon every single person can run over a knife lol

the knife gives you move speed which is nice for moving between objectives

[ember scaffold]

Panoramic nvg and Black soldier gone

[shrewd abyss]

i personally hope those appear when you "equip" them

the nvg i mean

[ember scaffold]

Unlikely but who knows

[shrewd abyss]

the black soldier i personally hope is like how BFV works, you can change the race, gender and voice

[ember scaffold]

IIRC in BF labs you cant

[spare socket]

I would wait for launch tbh. Not all features are in labs at all times

[ember scaffold]

They need to bring the panoramic nvg back

[spare socket]

They will likely also show and say more about the game closer to launch

[spare socket]

GPNVGs are dope

some of the other brands are.... less dope

there's a good reason the military opted to acquire that specific brand for their special forces

[ember scaffold]

Yup they need to bring em back

I preordered the phantom edition for that specific skin

If not then time to cancel, I dont want them to look like Pax Armata

[spare socket]

I'm debating if I should get the phantom edition still tbh.

Cuz it's basically 20 bucks for cosmetics.

I'm going to spend 10 bucks on the battlepass anyways

[tidal hound]

Why though? So you could never actually see it in game?

Being a First Person shooter

[ember scaffold]

We could see it in game on Menu

[spare socket]

they're pretty cool but also I think the devs removed them because gear like that should have some minor obstruction/change on view

[ember scaffold]

I just like the look of it, so elite

[spare socket]

which having your hud be the same with that skin on is like...

not "grounded" and they don't wanna upset people

idrc in that department the gear even if only for special forces is dope

[tidal hound]

I can also just fullscreen a .jpg of the skin during the load menu for the same effect.

[ember scaffold]

Panoramic Nvg are definitely grounded

[spare socket]

ehhhhhhh you wouldn't see any frontline personel like in battlefield games run those

Realistically

it's stretching the term but it's stretching it to a degree i'm ok with

[ember scaffold]

Used by elite/tier 1s and special forces most of the time but definitely grounded

[spare socket]

My brain internally hates the term tier 1

So much

[ember scaffold]

SMU then

[frozen thorn]

Im back from being muted

[ember scaffold]

Congrats

[frozen thorn]

Time to get the slow mode back to 15 seconds

[ember scaffold]

Opinion on the Phantom edition soldier skin changes?

https://youtube.com/shorts/HTk6Qhv3AIA?si=5mY9ihNIa75vbTZq

[frozen thorn]

The fact that you asked someone who isnt preordering at all already says a lot about it

[spare socket]

I actually like playing as a female in some video games. idk why

[ember scaffold]

Well you might still get it later anyway because phantom edition aint a preorder bonus

[tidal hound]

Smaller hitbox amirite hahahahaha

(I want to feel pretty)

[spare socket]

yeah something like that in my brain lmao.

Also I like the voices a lot better.

I think one of the few games where I chose the male option was cyberpunk 2077

[frozen thorn]

I didnt even know that it wasnt preorder. Im not here for the skins

[ember scaffold]

They need to be faster or more agile
