[tropic folio]

for sure especially the ones trying to sound smarter

[exotic trail]

LMAO

IF the shoe of punctuation based intimidation fits. wear it dude. or maybe learn to read better. Like I said. some of us learned to use our entire keyboard.

[tropic folio]

whatever you say pal

[exotic trail]

it looks too good to be true.

Sound design sounds too good too

[reef mortar]

and that is how far they ahve dissapointed the fan base :d

[hollow shuttle]

Hi guys, a small question, are the battlefield coins I have in bft2042 only for that game?

[hasty island]

me still waiting for bf1942 remaster

[exotic trail]

I know. I need to install and get my hands on it before I believe any hype.

[tropic folio]

probably, i'd be surprised if they carried over into bf6

[exotic trail]

or a server browser

[coarse sluice]

That would be nice, I think the community is raging for a Modern Day BF

[reef mortar]

jusst remaster bf3

and ill be happy

[hasty island]

isnt bf4 like a remaster of bf3 but without the blue halo effect

[tropic folio]

yes

[reef mortar]

if your just thinking modern shooter

but im talking about the maps

[exotic trail]

People keep saying this like they are mutually exclusive.

[reef mortar]

give me rush damamvand peak

pls

[hasty island]

I still play locker with hc that map is so adicting on tdm hc

[reef mortar]

and

thank you

[median harness]

OTAN VS EJE ORIENTAL (RUSIA, CHINA, COREA DEL NORTE) this is the game

[exotic trail]

SBMM can help scramble teams and merge half population lobbies without the complete absence of a server browser. they nearly had it with what Portal was promised to be.

[coarse sluice]

The question is will they try and do a BR mode which in turn would be its own demise

[reef mortar]

oh yeah, and give us our servers back

its a must

[twin needle]

On paper

[willow jackal]

I was never a fan of 2042, I said what I said

[exotic trail]

Join game via quickplay button, bad map, leave game, re-join same game, ect...

omiting a browser completely is just insane. unless your design is for a COD level of Arcade fps

[willow jackal]

[twin needle]

You’re not alone there

[reef mortar]

your not alone

[exotic trail]

I have to disagree comp-letely. the BF spawn mechanics alone seperate BF from the COD shallows of arcade shooter. a dozen other systems solely elevate it.

[twin needle]

With SBMM nobody wins

Get rid of it

[reef mortar]

bf is still arcade, but not to the level of cod

[twin needle]

Battlefield plays different to cod

Obviously I know but yeah

[exotic trail]

COD is peak ArcadeFPS

[twin needle]

Battlefield has more milsim elements to it

[coarse sluice]

Battlefield will always be a casual FPS, it just has teamwork mechanics that CoD does not have

[twin needle]

Like suppression, a medic class, a dedicated anti tank class etc

[reef mortar]

happy middle between milisim and arcade

[twin needle]

That came out wrong

[coarse sluice]

Let's be real, BF was never meant to be Arma

[median harness]

Battlefield need battlefield 1 immersion

[twin needle]

I meant tactical elements

[finite mauve]

No its not

[twin needle]

Squad play elements

[winged sable]

If you want to have milsim elements, play a milsim.

[twin needle]

Also guys I’ve got a controversial opinion

[winged sable]

BF is arcadey.

[finite mauve]

Battlefield isn't milsim

[twin needle]

Suppression belongs in battlefield

[exotic trail]

How?

[winged sable]

Brain dead take.

[willow jackal]

wut?

[twin needle]

How’s that brain dead?

Suppression should be something that’s exclusive to the support class

[finite mauve]

Cod is the same game every year really, oversaturated, overrated. Also look how bad Cod is currently

[harsh atlas]

How do I get into the beta

[exotic trail]

you mean like an Arcade game?

[finite mauve]

Milsim is gameplay that is slow based and is realistic more of

[winged sable]

You missed your shots, so the target gets punished. Genuinely brain dead.

[reef mortar]

lottery

[tight rain]

You apply online

[finite mauve]

BF is arcade not milsim/tactical slow gameplay

[twin needle]

I mean only a support guy wielding an LMG.

Suppression should work like that

[finite mauve]

Talking about modes and shit

[tight rain]

Search up battlefield labs and it will show where you can apply

[winged sable]

No, suppression does not belong as a mechanic in this game.

[exotic trail]

you are just wrong. thats all.

[finite mauve]

No im not

Cod is overrated

[twin needle]

They’re pressing down a guy for basically a lot of if not the entirety of their magazine

[finite mauve]

But ofc cod is always going to have a lot of people buying no matter if it's trash lol

[willow jackal]

Ya ive played arma,

[coral comet]

[twin needle]

And by suppression I mean they can’t aim clear, they can still heal.

Exactly how it was done in battlefield 1

[exotic trail]

over rated yes. an arcade fps genre also yes.

[winged sable]

You should NEVER be rewarded for MISSING your shots.

[twin needle]

And I also want to mention; the class is called support. And supressive fire is a key concept behind an LMG or SAW

[median harness]

https://tenor.com/view/diou-ue-gif-21240445

[willow jackal]

THIS.

[twin needle]

battlefield is a military arcade shooter

Two and two together

[winged sable]

BF is an ARCADE SHOOTER. Suppressive fire shouldn’t be rewarded.

[tropic folio]

fucking facts say it louder

penalising someone's aim because their enemy MISSED is absurd and should've never made it past the whiteboard phase

[winged sable]

True

[tropic folio]

put as many post processing filters as you want but don't touch the aim

[twin needle]

There isn’t really much reward to it besides squad play, you get a fraction of the points (a literal 10th)

[willow jackal]

bf3 suppression was crazy

[exotic trail]

MilSim means you can learn something about actual military tactics. thats all. it simulates those situations for the military. its doesnt have a thing to do with players or pace. those tend to be big slow games though.

[median harness]

Glu glu glu

[twin needle]

It sure was

[winged sable]

Room Temp IQ take

[twin needle]

You keep talking about a ‘reward’

[willow jackal]

I didn't mind bf3 suppression but it was still a little much

[twin needle]

It’s more or less a trade

[coarse sluice]

Supression is a real and very effective tactic..How they use it in a video game is a whole different story

[reef mortar]

bf taught me never to trust my teamates covering the flank... thats enough 😉

[twin needle]

Absolutely

[tropic folio]

lowering your enemy's accuracy is a pretty big reward

[twin needle]

But it should be exclusive to the support class and with LMGs

[exotic trail]

lol double check corners, that blueberry is useless

[winged sable]

Punishing your target with a debuff to their aim because YOU FUCKING MISSED is a reward for missing your shots.

[twin needle]

And the trade off is burning a lot of shots

[reef mortar]

yuyppp

[winged sable]

On a class with INFINITE AMMO

NOT A TRADE

[willow jackal]

240B Laying hate on metro was so toxic

Same with the pig

[twin needle]

On a class that has to eventually reload a cumbersome weapon

[earnest copper]

Is it too late to sign up for battlefield 6 playtest

[tropic folio]

which is hardly a trade off at all considering the enemy now is punished with zero way to get around it other than running away

[winged sable]

Like you can’t get up and run away WHILE RELOADING like in EVERY OTHER BF TITLE.

[coarse sluice]

When you are suppressing a enemy, you are not exactly trying to have pinpoint accuracy. The goal is to supress, if you hit the target then thats just a added bonus

[tropic folio]

i spend 5 bullets (all of which miss) and my enemy is now going to have his accuracy impacted significantly, meaning i get even more time to shoot despite not having hit them in the first place

it's cool in theory but in practice it makes no sense at all

[reef mortar]

anyways, imma play some bf5 any takers? xbox?

[twin needle]

I mean something more deliberate

I personally believe there should be one class that is immune to suppression

Namely Assault

[covert garnet]

I don't think suppression needs to be so intense or universally applicable as certain past games, but the point of suppressive fire is to deliberately put rounds towards the target so they feel the pressure lol

Letting supports suppress with LMGs should be enough

[twin needle]

If I let loose with a machine gun full auto at hipfire deliberately against a sniper at range, they need to take a penalty to aim

[tropic folio]

an mg shooting into a window? Great! You can suppress the enemy and they don't shoot back, that's fine
two people standing out in the open with no cover? Whoever shoots first, regardless of accuracy, will get given an advantage

[covert garnet]

shoot firsterer

[winged sable]

So, TLDR because you can’t fucking aim, they need punished?

[twin needle]

I’m deliberately hipfiring and spraying at a sniper at range without a bipod or the like

[tropic folio]

i think visual effects are more than enough, suppression shouldn't be messing with the gun

[dawn palm]

You do realize that's how it works in real life, right?

[coarse sluice]

He is supressing the sniper not trying to get a headshot LOL

[covert garnet]

I don't think you fundamentally understand what suppression is lol

[twin needle]

That’s not bad aim, that’s an example of how suppression should be done

[tropic folio]

battlefield isn't real life hope this helps

[dawn palm]

I'm very aware. Just because Battlefield isn't a realistic milsim shooter, doesn't mean it can't have realistic elements such as destruction of buildings or suppression.

[twin needle]

Besides I’ve already mentioned

[covert garnet]

Reasonable, tho I think a small effect is okay

[twin needle]

There would be one class immune to it

[tropic folio]

one way i can see suppression being improved is if it requires the gun to be mounted on something. That way it only applies to people who are actually set up and intending to suppress, rather than every encounter with an enemy

[coarse sluice]

As a Army veteran please allow games to have that "line" between reality and virutal reality. If games played like real life nobody would have any fun realistically

[twin needle]

The one that is the most popular on infantry maps like Locker, Metro Fort Vaux, Achi baba. Etc

[twin needle]

I wouldn’t advocate for battlefield to do that

[exotic trail]

we dont want a perfect combat sim, just the mechanic to make sense lol

[covert garnet]

the realism part doesn't matter let's look past that

[tropic folio]

it can have those as long as they make sense in a gameplay scenario and aren't unbalanced. Suppression as it used to be didn't make sense and was very unbalanced

[twin needle]

I’m just talking about how suppression can be worked without detracting away from the fun factor

[dawn palm]

How did it not make sense?

[covert garnet]

The point is to let players deliver suppressive fire without being too strong

[twin needle]

Exactly

[tropic folio]

players are rewarded for missing, regardless of whether they intended to suppress or hit their target

[coarse sluice]

exactly

[twin needle]

And its a more deliberate action mind you

It’s not firing and missing

[barren juniper]

battlefield was for a long time known for good hit detection you should only feel suppression penalty if the hits are close enough to make you feel suppression

[twin needle]

It’s actively peppering a target with full auto fire at range when shooting from the hip with an lmg

[exotic trail]

but suppression IS intending to miss, or Not intending to hit.

[dawn palm]

Tell me, if you're getting shot at, are you not going to feel some feedback regardless of whether or not the bullets are hitting you?

Is it not an indicator to get the fuck in cover?

[covert garnet]

not really, it's more accurately intending to put fire in the direction of an enemy

Just not NECESSARILY hit

[random blade]

The idea behind it being used to help push objectives by reducing the enemy’s effective range and damage is fine, it’s when you are in a 1v1 and then suddenly them missing causes you to miss that’s the issue. Any way to get around that - by for instance doing the lmg only, bipod only type approach could help alleviate that somewhat

[tropic folio]

to the game that distinction doesn't exist, which i imagine is what most people have a problem with. You don't need to have the deliberate intent to suppress, because any shots that you miss will make the player get penalised regardless

[exotic trail]

when you play with an LMG though, you will the air with rounds, hitting is nice but the aim.

[twin needle]

It’s more pronounced than having another guy miss unintentionally from bad aim placement

[tropic folio]

yes, and this doesn't require the game to artificially lower my gun's accuracy

[twin needle]

And this is exclusive to one class of weapon too

[dawn palm]

It's lowering your accuracy due to the fact you're getting shot at. Most, if not everyone, is not going to keep a steady hand while having rounds flinged in your direction.

[covert garnet]

a light accuracy debuff is fine

[tropic folio]

yeah i know what it does, i'm saying it doesn't make sense from a gameplay standpoint and is unbalanced

[covert garnet]

it's to simulate panic

in a gamey way

[exotic trail]

I feel that suppression is mostly to teach players when to not move, because moving under massive suppressive fire means death

[twin needle]

That can work, but I would say for scouts it should be heavy

[coarse sluice]

Exactly! Its to make you take cover. Nobody should be thinking about lining up their sights or rushing when bullets are flying by their heads

[dawn palm]

Dude, it makes perfect sense from a gameplay point. If you can't hit a sniper from a thousand meters away with an LMG, spraying in their direction provides you the chance to move out of the line of sight of said sniper. It balances the gap between snipers and assault/support classes.

[random blade]

Unless you can out aim them, which it then prevents you from doing due to artificial handicaps

[exotic trail]

Something should happen when a bullet smacks a brick 6 inches from my soldiers face. Or a blanket of LMG rushing overhead while im prone.

[twin needle]

I will say that I should have clarified what I meant when I said how suppression should have worked

Suppression in bf3 was bad

[dawn palm]

If you out-aim the suppression system, what's the point of the system? To put down bad players?

[twin needle]

Don’t bring it back

[exotic trail]

BF3 was a STRONG effect thats true

[twin needle]

I would vision it as a counter to snipers

[dawn palm]

I agree, BF3 was horrid when it came to suppression

[coarse sluice]

Think about it folks. If a sniper could sit back a thousand meters and snipe with no debuff what so ever then said sniper would be unstoppable.

[covert garnet]

At any rate, locking accuracy-reducing suppression to supports should be fine

[tropic folio]

my issue with suppression has always been that regardless of intent players are rewarded for missing their shots

John might be posted behind some sandbags suppressing a treeline, so he's going to give his targets reduced accuracy, which is fine

Timmy, on the other hand, is running around and when he sees someone and starts spraying, he's going to miss half his shots but still win the firefight. Why? Because the game doesn't care where he was, it just sees that his target was getting shot at and artificially reduced his accuracy, despite suppression never being the goal

The game rewards players with poor aim, and punishes players that take a moment longer to get their sights on the target

[dawn palm]

Because it's intended to be exactly that.

[exotic trail]

but no effect will have players doing the ""NO WAY! HOW did he SEE me!?"" when they do catch a round to the head.

[twin needle]

Exactly

I m suggesting this as a counter to that

It’s not anything like what bf3 did and like I said. It’s exclusive to one class

Besides if anything it should teach snipers to be more mobile and try different angles

[dawn palm]

The removal of the suppression system will punish poor players and make snipers infinitely more overpowered.

[twin needle]

Speaking of which, I did like the sweet spot mechanic from bf1

[coarse sluice]

"my issue with suppression has always been that regardless of intent players are rewarded for missing their shots"
Supression isnt used to "hit" shots @tropic folio

[twin needle]

It’s not being rewarded for actively missing

[tropic folio]

the titles without suppression have done fine

[tropic folio]

it helps if you read the whole thing

[twin needle]

Probably in fairness because sniping was less powerful

You’ve got the sweet spot mechanic in bf1 for instance

[covert garnet]

Even though it's true that some players don't actually mean to suppress, I just don't agree that Timmy is being handed a win. If you get the first sight and shot off, isn't that having better awareness, positioning & reaction time than the other player anyway? And practically speaking, I haven't felt so over-suppressed in a 1v1 to the point I can't win since BF3

[tropic folio]

unless dice can come up with a way for suppression debuffs to only be applied in very specific scenarios where the player DOES intend to suppress, i just can't be happy with a mechanic like that

[dawn palm]

They haven't??? Most of them are now completely dead.

[twin needle]

Yeah

[coarse sluice]

I read it, I just think you're getting the supression mechanic wrong. I get what you're saying, and yes it may be a dumb mechanic in a game, but it is real.

[exotic trail]

the bullets dont know how badly you want to hit the target. so you will be unhappy.

[twin needle]

Its a very real tactic used with LMGS and GPMGs too

[tropic folio]

I disagree, all it proves is that one player was able to pull the trigger first. It says nothing about aim, awareness, or positioning when both players are evenly matched, but one of them starts shooting slightly earlier (while missing every shot in that burst)

[twin needle]

In fact in terms of how LMGs are used, they are used to suppress enemy targets

[covert garnet]

Nah, Kato understands what suppression is and what it's meant for, they're talking about the effect regardless of intent

[twin needle]

Allowing teammates to flank and flush out threats

[tropic folio]

thank you i don't know how much clearer i can make it

[twin needle]

The class that uses the lmg is called support

[exotic trail]

when guns go off, there is an effect regardless of intent.

[twin needle]

I would say keeping a target pinned down while your buddy moves to flank is a supportive action

[tropic folio]

i would LOVE suppression in battlefield, but the way it's been implemented has never been fair and always ends up rewarding players with poor aim in some form

[drowsy plover]

even in real life if you intend to hit and miss the end result is still the enemy being suppressed and taking cover . I dont get why "bad aim" whatever that means shouldnt count as suppression unless the shots are way off

[exotic trail]

*Shoot first

[twin needle]

Would it be better if it exclusively worked only when full autoing from the hip?

Not actively missing your shots to bad aim too

[covert garnet]

It does say something though. In most cases, if I get the first spot and first shot, it's because I was in a better position, had better awareness & better reaction time than the other player. That's an expression of skill, it just isn't aim

[tropic folio]

maybe, i can't think of every scenario right now but having restrictions like that is a step in the right direction imo

[coarse sluice]

This basically boils down to being a mechanic that is useful in real life, but is not equally as useful or fair in a video game

[twin needle]

Thank you

As I’ve said before

Suppression should at the very least be exclusive to one class, and one category of weapon, the LMG

Besides I think how battlefield one did suppression vs snipers worked somewhat

It just should be more deliberate than just bad aim

Another controversial opinion of mine is sweet spot mechanic

[exotic trail]

the BF1 sweet spot system made players be like... hyper-deliberate.

[twin needle]

I’d like to keep it

[exotic trail]

some loved it some hated it.

[twin needle]

I still felt like a degree of skill was still required to use the bolt action rifles

Namely good aim

Also on that note

[tropic folio]

yes in certain scenarios you'll win the firefight because you had better positioning, etc. but it does undoubtedly reward poor aim in a scenario where neither player has those advantages. In that case it just becomes a race to see who starts shooting first, not who gets their sights on the enemy first, which is where i have a problem with it

I think the player who takes a moment to get their aim right before shooting should have a better chance of winning, rather than the one who was fastest to pull the trigger and place a debuff on the enemy

[twin needle]

It’s also good if you wanted to function proper when larping as a regular soldier of a faction in battlefield 1

[twin needle]

To those here that do this, you are chads

[twin needle]

I agree with this

[exotic trail]

I think it made those rifles too unreliable. unless you learned the select 3 places per map to shoot from. and I do not like that. I do like learning the ""Feel" of a long range rifle in a BF title. not learning specific places but feeling out the drop

[twin needle]

Bad aim in a one on one encounter shouldn’t be rewarded

[twin needle]

Maybe it can be worked on more idk

But it depended mainly on shot placement and distance

[covert garnet]

These situations where John Battlefield is consistently winning duels because of suppression only - I'm not saying they don't happen, but they don't happen enough to matter. If they're on truly even ground, we're talking microseconds of difference. Your accuracy doesn't immediately tank when bullets come your way. Besides, spraying downfield wildly will net you kills in recent Battlefields regardless of suppression because of the weapon accuracy & recoil mechanics are so minimal

[exotic trail]

BF1 had sweet spot working well with its map design, thats objectively true. they did alot of work on the 'levelution' or whatever for when Behemoths came.

[twin needle]

Thank you

I also want to mention it definitely made the bolt actions very satisfying to use

[covert garnet]

Again, imo Battlefield 3 was the last game where suppression was so oppressive that it was detrimental

[twin needle]

I was playing Verdun Heights with a Lebel Model 1886 as the French

Got 40 kills

5 deaths

[terse hedge]

fort de vaux fans when the flamethrower takes out an entire hallway full of people

[twin needle]

Decent play

[twin needle]

One of the only maps it’s useful

I also want to give another unpopular opinion

I want elite kits to come back

[exotic trail]

Johnny Battlefield wildly spraying in a sudden gunfight usually gets him quickly capped by a nearby teammate or tank in my experiance, even if they get that one kill firing willy nilly gives you away so hard.

[twin needle]

I liked the casual play style they each offered

But the sentry and flame trooper felt like a handicap in some ways, their long health regen speed unjustified

[exotic trail]

the pick up kits weakness to melee was fun

[twin needle]

Sentry shouldn’t have had a melee takedown range

[exotic trail]

the move was usually to charge and panic them lol

they could mow down the chargers. good mechanic

[twin needle]

Owing to the fact that a suit of metal tends to offer protection from blades and blunt objects,

Sentry should have also been given at grenades

Flame trooper should have simply been given a pistol

That class has no Defense at range

[exotic trail]

The horseman was OP if I remember right. Chest plate, repeater rifle, health+ammo drop plus AT nades

I dont think OP horse ever went away

[twin needle]

It was insane yeah

But Calvary was vulnerable to concentrated fire (particularly machine gun fire just like irl)

[exotic trail]

I liked to try and AT Gun them

[twin needle]

That also works well too

Usually one hit kill

Especially if you aim for the rider

The infiltrators GL should have been given more splash damage

We saw in the turning tides trailer a British infiltrator taking out three ottomans with a single shot from the gl

Try that in bf1 you’re only killing the one you directly struck

Moderately wounding the other two

Basically should do the same amount of damage as a rifle grenade

Maybe swap out the sawed off shotgun for an M1911

Trench raider should have been given an m1911

Longer recharge time on the med crate

Perma gas mask

Tank hunter was honestly the best one imo

[exotic trail]

and they were still anonymous faceless soldiers in a war machine. Not special operators with specials boy backstories.

[twin needle]

Get that out of here too

Maybe have the elite kits be replaced with some sort of special ops dude like a commando type kit or something

In a modern or futuristic setting

Increase in health, unique weapon etc

The infiltrators artillery flare was epic

I feel like that should be the center of an elite kit in a modern battlefield title

[sleek oxide]

Man i wish hardline was played

like at all

[gentle flume]

I kind of hope in battlefield 6 or whatever it'll be called they'll add back the explosions knocking you down from things like exploding vehicles and the like from Battlefield 5.

[minor cave]

full immersion

[solid hinge]

in one of the clips i saw for labs, i hope when you're dragged you can pull your sidearm and shoot but with more recoil/sway

[minor cave]

one thing i noticed is that if i'm seeing it right, dragging/reviving are done in the same action. i noticed when the player was getting revived, they got flipped onto their back by the medic while getting rezzed. i feel like they're going for the opposite mechanic in BF5 where the medic would get tethered onto the person the ground to revive, effectively animation locking them. but this time around, the dying person would get tethered to the medic so the medic can still move while getting the revive off

[tired monolith]

When is starting labs i finish to complète online

[minor cave]

once you register, you'll have to wait for an invite to the next playtest. and its not a guarantee

[tired monolith]

Ok thanks bro

[green marten]

We need furry skins in BF6

[random blade]

Agreed

Wait no what I didn’t say that

[gusty lantern]

and a ChatGPT implementation

this one is crucial

[fringe pewter]

People are actual incels on twitter,
everywhere I go on an next battlefield leaked gameplay post I see "WoMeN" "DiCe gOnE wOkE"
"ONIY MeN ShOuLd bE iN WaR"
🤦🏿‍♂️

[jade verge]

battlelog down for anyone else?

[gusty lantern]

as long they dont run around in pink jumpsuits i dont care

[fringe pewter]

And David Sirland already said those were placeholders

[loud stone]

Yo do some people actually get the option to test battlefield rn?

[exotic trail]

yes

they probably are not here. lol

[loud stone]

why is it empty for me? are all the spots full?

[dapper lichen]

yeah, but either way, if this game is gonna be NATO vs a PMC, thats multiple nations who welcome all into their military

but on the topic of the soldiers, they really do look quite good. i hope they dip their feet into the near futureness just a tad bit

engineer with FPV drone goggles please devman

[opaque bone]

same here, I was playing 1 hour ago with no problem at all wth

[fringe pewter]

Yea do it like BFV customization so we can have the option to play as a man or an female

[dapper lichen]

ehhh

rather it be random

bc for some reason, everybody and their mom chooses female characters

not even as immersion, just for the hell of it

[gusty lantern]

honestly i dont care about that

[dapper lichen]

oh yeah i dont really mind it that much

it just always confused me

[errant matrix]

I love women in battlefield

because I love women

WOMEN RULE!

BF4 is still getting ddosed

[agile cairn]

hello everyone!

[mystic nacelle]

this server is full of nonsense

[errant matrix]

nonsense

i like that song

I wonder if Sabrina Carpenter has ever played Battlefield 3

[mystic nacelle]

We need battlelog and platoons in the next game

[agile cairn]

i hope there is someone here with some sence in EA that thing bringing back battllelog

[mystic nacelle]

full of stupid kids

this server doesnt help nexr bf game is full of off topics

[agile cairn]

don't fuck it up like previus tittles big teams need battllelog and platoons with stats ect.

do this and COD will be history

[solid hinge]

thug is better

[mystic nacelle]

there are no EA employes in here ? only trolls ?

[solid hinge]

It’s a discord server what do you expect

[mystic nacelle]

i expect to take next bf game serious

[solid hinge]

Shut up

[mystic nacelle]

but us full of kids like you

[solid hinge]

Oh yeah definitely

[agile cairn]

olo malakies eiste

[solid hinge]

Stop with the Greek

[fringe pewter]

Personally I don’t want to mind it too much, but at the same time those same people were the reason why BFV flopped.

[opaque bone]

Battlelog back working for me

[errant matrix]

BATTLEFIELD IS MILSIM CROWD FUCK OFF

THIS IS FOR THE FREAKS WHO PULLED ALL NIGHTERS ON METRO

[jade verge]

new battlefield game looks mid honestly

[fringe pewter]

That’s bait

[copper haven]

[jade verge]

not every opinion you dont like is bait actually

[fringe pewter]

The new battlefield looks like we want since bf4

[jade verge]

you dont seem open to anyone elses opinions unless its licking ea's rod so im just going to disengage

[mellow verge]

aaay slip her the tongue Mikey

[dapper lichen]

i gotta make my judgement once the proper alpha and/or beta gets going

so far, gameplay looks quite good but i cant say much else

[dry pumice]

Man, tbh all I ever wanted from a battlefield game is voice proximity chat or dismemberment
i rly hope they add voice proximity chat

[wheat pulsar]

isnt it in like pre pre alpha

[mellow verge]

or at least bring back the proximity comms

[opal schooner]

Dismemberment is a no go. Wouldn't work with revives

[jade verge]

not pre pre alpha no, pre alpha or alpha maybe. the reason they have it available is for it to be judged though not for everyone to go "its in alpha"

[fringe pewter]

We haven’t even seen the final build or played the game, i swear people need to have more cognitive function

[dry pumice]

I think an easy solution is too that is grenades kills denies revives or limiting the amount times you can get revived

[opal schooner]

Maybe but ehhh, it'd be unnecessary for a fairly arbitrary feature and would make for confusing and unforgiving gameplay for casuals

[jade verge]

it looks alright, but overall just a really bland looking game. its just hitting the most basic marks of "modern warfare" and "battlefield" and not doing much else. hope it shapes up to be better but feels really overhyped right now

[mellow verge]

head 'splosions look like they are gonna stop revives

[jade verge]

not with the series history of grenade spam no

[wheat pulsar]

hopefully

[mellow verge]

with recon class anyway

[jade verge]

never was a big fan of headshots stopping revives

[dry pumice]

Correct if I'm wrong, but I don't remember in a BF game where you can get infinitly revived. Eventually your forced back to the spawn screen.
In your "final" life thats when your body is ready to be exploded

[opal schooner]

Well yeah no I mean that's fine but I'm talking like other things limiting revives like headshots and such

[wheat pulsar]

well its not fun when u 200 pump someone in the head and they get revived and do it back to u

[dry pumice]

oh yeah ofc

[jade verge]

this is not fortnite

[mellow verge]

u positive?

[wheat pulsar]

it will be if im able to blow down a whole building with an rpgh

[mellow verge]

frostbite, fortnite I mean I could see how it might be confusing

[jade verge]

yeah thats been a thing since bad company 2

[vapid flower]

how can I check bf labs beta invite ?

[uneven hollow]

[vapid flower]

thx mate ^^

[hidden goblet]

Is a new Battlefield actually in the makings? Or is it just all hype?

[opaque bone]

bruh

[hidden goblet]

What?

[opaque bone]

they are already letting people try and test the game

[uneven hollow]

it’s all just a pysop

All these leakers are Feds

of course they’re making a new a battlefield game

[wheat pulsar]

the leakers are the friends we made along the way

[hidden goblet]

I was just making sure, I suppose than it will be set in modern day like the rumors say? That would be cool.

[tired thunder]

just search on social media: new battlefield leaks

there is tons of videos

[ivory widget]

I want to play test the new battle field but there’s no open labs sessions open I don’t think

[finite mauve]

All the leakers are devs and are leaking for hype and marketing 💀

[finite mauve]

You want to play test Battle and field?

[tired thunder]

yeah only a dev would play so bad like that

[finite mauve]

IGN game journalists

[compact brook]

hi thannks for having me

i just want to know why cant we just have a bf2 reboot. leave all the mechanics the same (gunplay, movement, etc) and just beef the graphics up

[tired thunder]

play squad and have fun

[compact brook]

in sorry mart but is this not a bf discord?>

[tired thunder]

it is but the game you want to play already exists and is literally a mod from bf2

https://store.steampowered.com/app/393380/Squad/

[compact brook]

am i an idiot or something>

i thought this was for bf devs

[tired thunder]

idk im just suggesting a improved version of bf2 to play

[compact brook]

not someone trying to sell another game

[tired thunder]

this is a public server

[compact brook]

ah

[tired thunder]

devs doesnt even type here

[icy sluice]

[summer forge]

Definitely not a dev server

Mostly degenerates arguing over battlefield 😂

[kindred sail]

true

[vapid epoch]

vine por la alpha ,veta lo que sea de battlefield 6 donde la descargo?

[woeful marlin]

EXTREMELY LATE REPLY, but I agree.

[vernal meteor]

Definitely, and I think that's why this game will turn out bad as well! No matter what phase it's in, they keep messing around with blueprints and generating AI-driven maps. UHM. I'd gladly give some advice because these things are not only dead on the server side but on the development side too!

[fast ridge]

igualmente

[queen elm]

all the time bf4's sv quits everyone because???

[fast ridge]

im not sure if it me or bf4 sv today are few and poor?

[marsh dragon]

About leaks, guys who thinks that NDA will stop people from making leaks especially when you let them play on platform located at their homes are funny

Actually you can use leaks like a part of advertising campaign, I seen much of good comments under alpha footage

[dense wraith]

^

[past meteor]

ive been sick for awhile and havent had time to play but is there something wrong with bf4 rn? alot of servers i usally play on have put a password and dont show ranks anymore

[wise locust]

anyone on bf4?

[uneven hollow]

I was making a joke

can’t even read the room

[tight rain]

Risky move boy

[ebon nimbus]

nah lol its js old bf3 clips people are faking it theres no new bf

why would they make a new bf when 2042 is so popular smh

[royal oak]

how the key hunt going

oh

OH

text chat is back

finally I can sht talk the other team again

[shadow dome]

If dice brings back portal creator mode, I wouldn’t be opposed to assets from 2142 being available, since it wasn’t on console and gameplay of 2142 carrier assault looked like a ton of fun

Actually, can we get that please

[digital orbit]

I actually kept thinking 2143 was in the pipeline for years

But EA won't touch it, I think it's because of the backlash COD was getting with advanced warfare, maybe it scared them being too high-tech.

Also we can't ignore the whole BF community 'issue' where every release 'splits' the community instead of migrating it or having people play both

which is what happened when 2142 came out, it pulled BF2 players away and pissed people off

If we do see 2142 stuff, I reckon like you said, it will be in a portal or some kind of mode so the people playing the new BF have access to it and it doesnt split the community

[random blade]

To a degree this can be beneficial, at the very least it means each game feels unique so you know you’ll be getting a different experience each time

[digital orbit]

100% I got both and switched between, but many dont, they just buy 1

[fringe pewter]

Yea we probably gonna have more factions from previous battlefields

[random blade]

But I do know very well what it’s like to be left behind, from other franchises taking directions I dislike and so forth

[prime pine]

I hope they do NATO and allow for a wider cast of countries.

[digital orbit]

They are

NATO vs PMC

[prime pine]

So they could do one banner but hey look German, British, Finnish.

Keep in mind I'm trying not to directly talk about the leaks.

[digital orbit]

DW neither, (because i havent read any) lol

[fringe pewter]

Portal is coming back so I want BF4/BF1/BF1943/BC1/BC2/Hardline.

[digital orbit]

That's confirmed?

[prime pine]

Imagine if you could change you assault from German to British.

[digital orbit]

You didnt mention 2142, get off the server. lol

[prime pine]

I would love that.

[fringe pewter]

Been confirmed by flak fire

[digital orbit]

Hmmm okay cool thats what i thought

because they were hyping up portal as a means to bring all in for 2042

[prime pine]

Portal will probably just mean player created content.

[random blade]

If it had its editor system and just remade maps, I’d be happy. No need to recreate all these old factions and mechanics in my opinion

[digital orbit]

they will port BFV into portal then

that will bring the rest over

[prime pine]

Bf5 was partially ported.

I just fucking realised why it's called portal

4 fucking years later

[digital orbit]

yeah lol

[fringe pewter]

No it wasn’t

[prime pine]

The models used in 1942 portal are literally from bf5.

[digital orbit]

its the stargate to another BF lol

[prime pine]

The buildings, m1911 and tiger specifically are from bf5.

[digital orbit]

I hope they dont portal me to the carrier on BF2 with some idiot planting c4 on the fighter jets... thats a memory im happy to leave behind lol

[fringe pewter]

I hope portal doesn’t feel the same as the base game

[digital orbit]

hmm

i assum it will

[fringe pewter]

That was the problem with 2042

[prime pine]

No one wants another 2042 portal situation where the guns and shit there specifically functioned way different from the base game.

As in

Their blueprint skeletons were actually different

[digital orbit]

Yeah but i think EA reckon this new BF is the definitive BF so it would

[prime pine]

Portal m16a3 was made different from the ground up on a fundamental level versus like the m5a3.

[digital orbit]

Well per their most recent update they said they’re tweaking gunplay and movement to be faster, smoother, and more predictable while testing it in Battlefield Labs before finalizing it.

so think any portal stuff will def use the new BF gameplay

[fringe pewter]

Hopefully BF3/BF4 gunplay and movement

[digital orbit]

yeah probably some hybrid mix of all the best stuff

[grim tree]

Pretty hyped for the new battlefield ngl… Just wish they would bring back airfields like in Battlefield 2, taking off down the runway, or needing to capture an area to spawn in new vehicles for your team kinda made capturing those zones more important

Also taking off of the aircraft carrier was fuuun

Flying through tunnels

With jets

People did some crazy stuff

Battlefield 2 Mine on YouTube… endless amounts of C4 and stupid sh*t like that, is what I really miss

[digital orbit]

I think because of the dynamic they shifted away from it.

[grim tree]

Just spawning in a vehicle sucks

Lemme sprint for my life to get it, or run through enemy bullets to take theirs haha

[digital orbit]

I disagree, becasue its just frustrating that way

unless you have extra free assets laying around anyone can get

[grim tree]

Life is hard, the challenge makes victory that much sweeter

[digital orbit]

yeah but define challenge

fighting with your own team over equipment?

lol

[grim tree]

Ppl spawn camp the menu the same way anyways

[digital orbit]

Then they should copy homefront

[prime pine]

Airfields yield themselves to getting griefed.

I wouldn't mind it as a start of game thing.

But mid match like no.

[grim tree]

Give airfield AA

[digital orbit]

Homefront gave individuals points they could spend on spawning in vehicles. it was good

[grim tree]

Calling vehicles is cool too tbh

[prime pine]

But they should be objective points.

If speaking for spawn people shouldn't be in your spawn so you know that's fine.

[grim tree]

Little boosters n parachute and a small cloud of dust

Team already have “safe” hq spawns

Protect aircraft with hangers ect

But I do get your point too

[prime pine]

They've done away with automatic aa because it's semi problematic.

Basically just a free beam by running back home.

It's really frustrating.

Protections should be better though

I think a simple solution is to make aircraft that's spawned on the air field a 10s take off immunity. Or like a line flag that disables it.

[grim tree]

We do need more naval battles though, bfv dropped the ball on that one… I mean WWII and no real naval map? Even BF1 had dreadnoughts and destroyers you could take control over

Mhm auto AA sucks, player driven is better… I’d play AA for whole battles in BFV n have fun with it. Depends on the map design

[ripe arch]

I'll buy this game at launch price, DICE, if you bring back first person takedown animation

That's full $60 freedom coins for you mfs

[wind quarry]

Bro

Why do people want Battlefield 6 to just be Battlefield 3 remastered 💀💀

[ripe arch]

Because I think that game was very special, was it not special to you?

[wind quarry]

It was my first battlefield after battlefield heroes

But not everything was perfect

And dice should strive for no things

[grim tree]

They want the BF3 feeling

It was a really good game

[wind quarry]

Then why not play BF3, PC servers are still up

[sullen flame]

They are still up bro

[wind quarry]

Only console BF3 is dead

[sullen flame]

Server shutdown

[grim tree]

BF2 is still the best Battlefield ever though

[quiet flume]

I'm sorry if this question gets asked a lot, but how could I sign up for playtesting the new title?

[wind quarry]

Never played bf2

[quiet flume]

Same, BF3 was my first. Been in love since.

[sullen flame]

Yes u can

[wind quarry]

Never knew why didn’t dice actually remaster any of the games

[sullen flame]

Go on battlefield labs website

[wind quarry]

Like 2142, bf2

[sullen flame]

And sign up

[wind quarry]

Bad company

[quiet flume]

I'm glad they didn't. A lot of people remaster titles and end up ruining them. Let the old magic stay old.

[grim tree]

Battlefield 2 had awesome mods and was honestly just great… all it ever needed to be for me personally

Sandbox, online, mods

[random blade]

Because I’d rather not re-buy a game I already own

[quiet flume]

That too

[ripe arch]

What are you saying? Are you saying that people who want Battlefield 2025 to be like BF3 should stop thinking it this way and just go play BF3 instead?

[wind quarry]

Honestly… Yes!

💀💀

[ripe arch]

Are you aware how dumb that sounds?

[random blade]

And they’ll attempt a remaster but change the core systems to match their modern approach even if accidentally, having it feel different anyways

[quiet flume]

Thank you :)

[wind quarry]

How is it dumb to think it’s ridiculous to want a new game to exactly be like bf3

[sullen flame]

They just want new netcoding with better graphics that's what most of the fans want

[ripe arch]

No one is wanting Battlefield 2025 to be **exactly ** like BF3, no one, you're looking at this too black and white

BF3 is not perfect, it has so much shite, like what @sullen flame said, 10hz netcode for example

[grim tree]

I don’t think anyone wants it to be exactly like BF3… but rather for Battlefield to find its original identity again. People say BF3 because it was groundbreaking for battlefield at the time, just like bad company 2

[ripe arch]

I think BF3 was special and important because it brought a lot of fans from call of dog water

[grim tree]

People want battlefield, not super soldiers

Exactly

[sullen flame]

If u go back in 2011 then bf3 was perfect for that time

For today's standards bf4 is quite impressive

[ripe arch]

I also need to mention that with video games, what we mostly remember is how it made us feel, not how it played or looked etc, it's how we feel is what we remember, and when people say I want the game to be like BF3 or whatever, we're mostly saying we want the new game to feel like BF3, it doesn't exactly have to be BF3

[grim tree]

BF3 campaign was gritty and felt real and heavy on impact… the colour tones and the overall look was way better than 2042

[sullen flame]

2042 never had a campaign is biggest failure

[grim tree]

Just like BF1 looks better than BFV (which is way too vibrant for ww2)

Yeah no kidding

Rip Irish

[oak briar]

how can i play the new battlefield alpha ?

[sullen flame]

Nah rip pac lol he was a good soldier duh really liked him in bf4

[grim tree]

That trailer where he was on the boat got me excited for naval ops and stormy weather

[wind quarry]

No im looking at people who literally want it to be battlefield 3

[sullen flame]

Sign up for battlefield labs and hope that u can get invited for playtest

[wind quarry]

Even with the same intro

[ripe arch]

BF3 colour grading has soul, it had character, it had substance, meanwhile 2042 looked like some kind of tellytubbies circus show

[sullen flame]

Nobody wants bf3 they just want a game which gives the same memories a 2011 game gaved before

[grim tree]

Yup

[wind quarry]

Same classes

Same designs

Same guns

Same soldiers

Same maps

Same menu

[quiet flume]

You can't manufacture nostalgia

That's what people are chasing

[sullen flame]

Don't get me wrong but some people do like the revamp maps bruv even bf3 had bf2 maps which were remastered

[wind quarry]

Yeah and I hope dice doesn’t listen to them

[random blade]

Especially proven with how many studios are trying to ‘return to roots’ and failing miserably

[ripe arch]

You make a good point, I think DICE is probably trying to attract the gen Z audience

[quiet flume]

They're trying to keep up, and as a battlefield lover I have to respect it and understand that things can't be how they were

[wind quarry]

Only bf3 map that deserves remaster is noshar canals, Gran bazaar, and damavand peak

[quiet flume]

Just try and support the new games and hope for the best 🤞

[sullen flame]

Abbasid looks a bit like Bazar

[wind quarry]

True

[sullen flame]

Would love the rush if they add that since it was the core mode for the battlefield games

Don't know why they removed a good mode from the game

[ripe arch]

Probably no one played it lol

[sullen flame]

Sure people did when it was good

[wind quarry]

I like Kharg island too

[quiet flume]

The good ole days of operation metro rush maxed out tickets

[wind quarry]

Fr

Rush is better than breakthrough post BF1

[ripe arch]

I think honestly, I prefer playing breakthrough rather than rush but that's just me

[sullen flame]

Rush gained bad image bcuz of bf4

Ngl bf4 rush was not good

[wind quarry]

What did bf4 do

Oh

Man

[sullen flame]

Mcoms placements made the rush bad

[wind quarry]

Operation metro rush was something special man

[sullen flame]

It was amazing on eveymap of bf3

[wind quarry]

That is true

Whatever happened to coop

[sullen flame]

Bf4 rush got bad image bcuz of mcoms placements and then the nade spammers

[ripe arch]

There is just isn't anything interesting about going into the middle of the map and holding a button and hope to God nobody shoots you

[sullen flame]

Nah it's good if u get a brain

There is this thing called m320 smoke lol

[ripe arch]

[sullen flame]

Not that hard to place a bomb at mcom

U just need a right squad

I still play rush on bf3 pc and still gives a good vibes

[ripe arch]

I think the audience for FPS games is getting less and less, it's a feeling

Not like in early 2010s

Nowadays, people find one game and stick with it

[sullen flame]

No I played cod for like a month now and I'm still playing bf4 daily with 3

[lusty vessel]

i hope the next bf is good

[sullen flame]

Old games really made u stick to one game

[lusty vessel]

i have a huge bf itch right now but none of the games are scratching it

[sullen flame]

New games are very trash u always move on in a month or so

[lusty vessel]

and no i won't play delta force

[ripe arch]

Wise decision

[random blade]

And any new game is guaranteed dead within a year as these strategies employed by the big leagues to keep people playing never gives them a chance to live

[sullen flame]

It's crapy lol no balance in game the vehicles are so good u can dominate a whole match without even having a support

[lusty vessel]

i was downloading it a while back then i read reports it's rampant with cheaters

so i canceled the download

[ripe arch]

It's sad, I used to really enjoy MWII but I can't find any lobbies, you buy a game, you play a year and you can't play it anymore is how I feel

[sullen flame]

That too bcuz trash anti cheat

[lusty vessel]

not only trash but it's invasive

[sullen flame]

They still copied 2042 UI

😭😭😭😭

[lusty vessel]

yea it's kinda creepy how similar it is

[ripe arch]

Obligatory EasyAntiCheat is dog water

[sullen flame]

Imagine making a game after some years and still doing crazy copy cats

[lusty vessel]

i wonder how the WW3 game is doing

"the battlefield killer"

[sullen flame]

☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️

[kind pagoda]

when the new bf arrives

[sullen flame]

This year if GTA 6 drops next year

If no then next year

[lusty vessel]

every game dev on earth is terrified of GTA VI lmao

even other T2 games

[kind pagoda]

how the new bf will be called

[sullen flame]

Did u know how much GTA 5 sold lol
They have a good reason to be scared of lol

[random blade]

With cod especially I imagine it must be pretty bad. Don’t play it myself but the playerbase must just get eradicated with every new game launch

[sullen flame]

Don't know man nobody got a clue about the new battlefield game title

[twin hemlock]

Lo mejor que le puede pasar a este juego es que pongan reporte ya que puro manco de pc para usando hacks

[finite mauve]

Battlefield sigma warfare to the max

[random blade]

You’ll do what?

[kind pagoda]

what?

[random blade]

You said when bf launches, but didn’t say what you’ll do

[ripe arch]

And also I'd argue FPS games are just "unsafe", and when I say unsafe, I mean like devs change gun/hero balance on a whim and suddenly what you used to enjoy is now shite, I hate it

[kind pagoda]

play it lol

[random blade]

Just didn’t finish your sentence, wondered what you were going to say lol

[lusty vessel]

is there a new CoD this year?

[random blade]

Of course

[sullen flame]

I guess

[ripe arch]

Wouldn't be surprised if there is one

I feel like it was yesterday since they released black ops 8 or something

I don't care anymore... about these fps games

[wind quarry]

What’s yall highest infantry kill streak?

[lusty vessel]

that's a ballsy move

[random blade]

Trying to keep things relevant by forcing meta changes is something I see often now

[sullen flame]

At this speed I think cod will have dozens of failures

[lusty vessel]

i feel like GTA is the only thing left standing that can defeat CoD

[wind quarry]

Man

[random blade]

If I had titanfall 3 I’d be in my happy place

[sullen flame]

Oh man my highest was 73 on metro

On Xbox

[wind quarry]

It used to be so great to be a cod and battlefield fan

Battlefield 3 and bo2 at the same time was peak

[wind quarry]

Wow

[sullen flame]

With a squad loooool

good medic squad

[sullen flame]

GTA has no comparison with cod lol

GTA got more fans then the Cod and battlefield combined

[ripe arch]

Was the BF4 era good? I missed it

[sullen flame]

It was good not the best one I would say

[random blade]

Was when I started playing, was good enough for me

Back in my ‘doesn’t care about performance, just wants cool explosions’ phase

[wind quarry]

Yeah

Honestly everyone plays GTA

[lusty vessel]

yes

[full hinge]

didn't play it since 2015

[lusty vessel]

i tried getting back into bf4 recently and i got kicked from a server within the first 3 minutes

[full hinge]

hella boring

[sullen flame]

Ddos is happening with bf4 serverd

Servers*

[lusty vessel]

i got kicked because i got 2 kills in a jet

and accidently rammed someone

i wasn't used to bf4 jet controls and i slammed into an enemy on accident

they got salty and kicked me

bf4 admins are losers

[sullen flame]

Lol

[random blade]

It happens. Make sure to say it was one in chat

[ripe arch]

When I tried to get back to BF4, which was years ago, I couldn't play it casually, every server was full of tryhard veterans, as expected

[tall haven]

if you didn't play since at least battlefield 1942, your feedback is a lot less valuable

[lusty vessel]

that too

can't have casual fun anymore

[tall haven]

Bring back 6 players squads, squad leader only respawns, allow squads to form their little outpost (spawn point) with fortifications as side objectives to pursue, allow renaming of squads like in BF2 for people who want to orient their strategy, bring back faction specific armament (no mg42 for allies)

[random blade]

I would be somewhat in favour of some of those things, but knowing the playerbase it would only make squad play fun in organised groups

heck even squad which took on most of those systems rarely has players that use them properly

[tiny terrace]

Can the new Battlefield game bring back the in-game T key feature to swap attachments from Battlefield 2042?

[fluid harbor]

100% Also bring back commander with physical assets that can be destroyed. There were times when my squad renamed as Asset Hunters and all we did all game was harrass the enemy commander and take out their arty and UAV trailers.. good times. I also am not a fan of squad revives. You water down the role of a medic when everyone can pretty much revive each other..

[fluid harbor]

Please no...you should be stuck with the choice you made at the start of each respawn..

[dusk bane]

The plus menu is pretty broken too

[tall haven]

could have different types of squads, maybe an alternative between a more casual 4 players capped squad type with some kind of penalty like slower respawn VS 6 players squad for those who want more organized play around a common goal

[tall haven]

Yes, bringing back in game assets for the metagame is good, doesn't have to be a dedicated commander if they bring back BF5 squad call ins

although I loved the commander concept

[tall haven]

I think squad revives are a good thing when medic has faster revives, more hp recovery upon revive, healing in general

I think the roles overall need a little more impactful tools for people to dig into really

I'm in favor of having less gadgets but more impactful ones, like points buy-in

[livid bay]

Sadly, from ex-dev statements, it seems like they’ve been looking into ai commanders

Could have switched between them leaving and now, but I wouldn’t count on it

[olive fern]

Hey guys I just logged in for the battlefield labs thing on mobile how can I play it on console?

[carmine grail]

I genuinely think battlefield should introduce more gameplay that is squad oriented and people actually listen to the squad leader

Because no one really does

Like " go into this marked building and set up a machine gun at the top floor" and they actually do that

But the thing is you need slower gameplay for that

[verbal gazelle]

Well, you should understand that this is a case of a couple of servers, not all, there are servers where there are only pistols, there are servers where there are only shotguns, there are servers where there are their own rules and they are indicated either in the name or in the initial splash screen. The problem is only in you and the fact that you do not want to read or simply ignore what is written

[fringe pewter]

No

[tall haven]

They could fill that niche easily without slowing it down very much

[royal oak]

well there be chicken in bf6

[edgy mantle]

I think it's against NDA for you to say this so you have to delete this message

And if you do need help maybe try contacting the support

[royal oak]

he got a key!

the legends are true 🥹

[ornate raft]

Anybody else having issues finding a game in battelfield 5?

Nobody is playing it's putting us in a match with only 3 people on each side....need 8 vs 8 to even start the match

I've never seen any battelfield game be this dead

[tall haven]

so you think the 20k people on the game right now are just sitting at the menu to troll you or what

[ornate raft]

What? I was legit asking an a question i just look at all the servers and it says zero games......where does it say 20k people?

Server browser?

[tall haven]

There's 11k on Steam alone so I think I'm rather conservative

[ornate raft]

Yea we did that and for every region still says zero games idk what the deal is....was just playing yesterday and have never had issues with getting in a match

[past spindle]

hey can anyone helpe me? i installed bf4 on new pc and i keep getting kicked from servers after like 10-30 sec with 'connection lost to server' message

[ornate raft]

Yes

[verbal gazelle]

For two weeks now, a group from China has been making DDoS attacks on BF4 servers

[tired thunder]

use the battelog website or server browser and there is a few servers protected by password now. these are the only you can play since the other servers with no password can be attacked by a recent exploit/ddos attack

[past spindle]

you sure thats the reason not anything pc related cause too good pc? i set win 8 compatibility in settings cause thats only solution i could find on reddit archives but it still happening

[sullen flame]

I can see why they still got stupid grudges on a 13 year old game

[tired thunder]

also search for unranked servers. those have less potential to being attacked. plenty of servers are unranked now

[verbal gazelle]

Bro, you're not the only one with this problem with kicking from the server ))) it's like this for everyone now, servers are subject to DDoS attacks

[past spindle]

ok thx, i just didnt play bf4 in like year and on other pc, reinstalled 1h ago, wasnt aware of ddos attacks 😉

thought its pc related

[tired thunder]

follow the suggestions i gave above and you can find some servers to play

[ornate raft]

You on xbox?

[verbal gazelle]

we can play only when it's night time in China) usually the attack ends at 18:00 - 19:00

Hey server browser is glitched on xbox

[digital orbit]

Would love that. but a lot of people play BF just to mess around

[ornate raft]

How long has it been glitched for?

[sullen flame]

So umm go on game mode each game mode should be showing server browser for itself and then u can find the servers easily

[sullen flame]

Years lol

If u want I can tell u if u screen share on discord

[ornate raft]

I've never had an issue was just playing fine for me yesterday

[sullen flame]

What server browser did u use?

[tired thunder]

there is way less bf4 players now since there are attacks worldwide the past 2 weeks. so majority of people gave up

[sullen flame]

No that's bugged

[ornate raft]

The default one (where you search for games right?)

[sullen flame]

No don't use that one

Me too stupid

[sullen flame]

Can u screen share on discord call I can tell u

I will tell him

[verbal gazelle]

I'm waiting for the evening time and I can play normally, but during the day it's unrealistic) it's 15:00 for me now, I'll be able to play only at 18:00 - 19:00 (the attack on the servers is ending)

[hoary vessel]

How often do play-test invitations go out or is it random ?

[sullen flame]

Random

[ornate raft]

Im using my phone atm for discord

[sullen flame]

U can join the call on Xbox and screen share

☠️

If this doesn't work u will leave the server ok?

Deal?

[tired thunder]

NA would have 3 full servers by this time if we hadnt attacks. all major servers are password protected and they are empty 😔 people gave up unfortunatelly

[sullen flame]

When ?

For like 2 mins?

😂😂😂😂

U wanna 1v1 A flag?

I'm down

Nah

Come rn

I didn't even touched the game for weeks lol it's a W for u

[kindred garden]

BF4 is being ddosed?

[kind topaz]

Yeah, impossible to play rn

[kindred garden]

Ah that sucks

[west mirage]

Yeah
https://www.rxddit.com/r/battlefield_4/comments/1j6rjc7/battlefield_4_server_exploit_now_widespread/

This sucks

[waxen tusk]

was that suppose to be a reddit or you missed the e instead of the x?

[sullen flame]

☠️☠️☠️

[waxen tusk]

;)

[noble trout]

hello .can some1 help me with a bf5 achievment?

[worldly gate]

why someone ddos 12 year game

[waxen tusk]

Alkayo: From my experince, it would take a tl;dr, tho normally its an interesting read.

[tropic folio]

that link gives a better embed on discord

it's still reddit

[west mirage]

Just copied it on other channel that I know

[frank olive]

Y'all think we could get the XM-8 in the next Battlefield? I'd love that

[tired thunder]

blackmail supposedly. i heard the hacker stops when the bf4 server admin pays him a monthly fee

but this info is not accurate so dont take it serious

[sharp barn]

Could be a cool bc2 throwback

I doubt it’d be a launch weapon tbh, they’d probably focus on more modern weapons

It’s a shame that 2042 tried to copy many things from cod, but couldn’t duplicate its visceral feeling gunplay

Compare the m5 in 2042 to its counterpart in modern warfare, it’s practically a nerf gun

[river bobcat]

Anyone imagine portal might come back?

[limber bough]

Never seen anyone call cods gunplay visceral

[sharp barn]

The new modern warfares? Absolutely

I’m talking about weapon feel not necessarily high recoil

[river bobcat]

I always thought the reloads in the recent IW games looked like the operator was intensely frustrated. Rather than "visceral" lol.

[frank olive]

Yea thats def one of the reasons I couldn't get into 2042, the guns felt like pea shooters

[dusk bane]

It’s kind of dissatisfying using most of the weapons

[sharp barn]

They actually toned that down in mw2 lol I think they realized it

[limber bough]

Exaggerated and arcadey is what i would describe it as

[river bobcat]

Nah, from what I've seen on channels like "Tigerfield" (I think) they still look like they get aggressive with some of the weps, but I think from the 3rd one, the head bobbing is almost near headache material 💀

Mind you I'm going off of memory, so maybe I might be wrong.

[sharp barn]

Well every game has to exaggerate to get a certain feeling right?

[muted hornet]

playtest when

[sharp barn]

Look at Tarkov for example

[limber bough]

Sure but i've never felt, heard or seen cods gunplay as visceral

[past sapphire]

How is BF 1 these days thinking about going back and playing

[half sleet]

Hi how can I download a BF Labs?

[tropic folio]

wait for email

[fickle apex]

Hello here, Yesterday I played after a long time away from bf1 and no one had the level, my points weren't updated ,if I used a vehicle I was taken back to the main menu with a message saying ''server offline' I only played 1 match as infantry. Is this a bug or what? Ps4

[radiant escarp]

Hi

[tight rain]

Howdy

[solid hinge]

why is engineer medic in new game

[solar nexus]

Better than having specialists

[pine lake]

v v kjhynhtbgbg hbg hnvbh hyyyyyng vgvbyhgu hbn vdg bvcjmn rt mmn hj g h hhhh jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjnb vcsaz nt6rf v ,9 op [

[fringe pewter]

Nah that’s support

Support had defibs

[spring plume]

i dont get the hate for specalists, its literally the same thing, unless you are just trying to be a larper

[fringe pewter]

Specialists doesn’t work in a battlefield game

[solar nexus]

Not the same thing. Battlefield has always been a class based shooter, bf2042 is an exception but battlefield 2042 may not be just a battlefield game, it's a combination of several other things

The specialists were cringe

In older battlefield games, if you died and respawned, you will respawn as a different solder model which made the battles feel more realistic

Bf5 could be an exception with the characters

[spring plume]

so it boils down to rp

[fringe pewter]

BFV still had proper soldiers

[solar nexus]

They added tom cruise in bf5 before killing the game

[solar nexus]

There were characters too

https://youtu.be/BdI-RufsSUs?si=r_Pnd-QUOntb09RF

This was cringe

[earnest storm]

sooo I thought the new gameplay looked good. Won't get into detail as I don't want to get banned

[solid hinge]

oh damn, the footage i saw the game lagged hard enough switching classes to say engineer medic. but yeah why is support medic either

[fringe pewter]

Yes but it was default generic soldiers at best

[earnest storm]

That's the first thing I saw that gave me relief

[solar nexus]

That's what the next battlefield should focus on,

Bf2042 concept arts had generic solders too but those never came to the game

Maybe except portal

[fringe pewter]

DICE didn’t show gameplay footage of 2042 before and even after the reveal trailer

[solid hinge]

soldiers look good for alpha, i dont trust ea to do something later to ruin it. proceeding with caution

[fringe pewter]

They need to have BFV customization and also go the BF1 route and have unique uniforms for each map.

[solar nexus]

They showed a demo of the destruction, but the destruction in the final game wasn't like that

[fringe pewter]

Demo of destruction not actual gameplay

[earnest storm]

I don't mean to stir up the pot but there was quite a lot of female voices being heard in the gameplay lol

[wicked tulip]

Just make it like BF3 and BF4

It's not that hard

[fringe pewter]

David Sirland already confirmed those were placeholders from 2042

[earnest storm]

Ah ok understandable

[wicked tulip]

@fringe pewter Message me

[random blade]

Apparently, haven’t watched it yet. Don’t really care either way

[solid hinge]

please have hardcore mode. i dont care if it ruins those squad perk ability tier things

[earnest storm]

The gunplay looked phenomenal i will say

[random blade]

They did just update the rules to be more relaxed on leak discussions

[earnest storm]

tac sprint is also gone i heard which is a big plus

[solid hinge]

vids are still up with hundreds of thousands of views, must be a tactical leak

[tropic folio]

or they just know that it's a fruitless effort

why is dice gonna waste time faking a leak when players will do it for free

[solid hinge]

[earnest storm]

At the end of the day no amount of NDAs and bans will be 100%... no way 1.4 million people cooperate with the rules

[tropic folio]

well it's not 1.4 million people in the playtest, so that helps

[earnest storm]

true so whatevers the thousands are

my mind was on the sign ups

[tropic folio]

they def knew things would get leaked at the very least

not much you can do with external tests like this

[earnest storm]

correct

I think it was almost like a tease these rules

kind of like a "wink wink" please dont be a naughty person and leak this shit lol

[near sparrow]

how many classes are there

4 or 5

[earnest storm]

4

[near sparrow]

is it like the bf4 style

or different

[solid hinge]

different

[near sparrow]

what's different about it

medic?

[tropic folio]

medic is support

[near sparrow]

which of them handle ammo drop

[subtle saffron]

no idea if it can be discussed if not its perfectly fine, but in the playtest is there the grittiness from bf1 or like immersive voicelines suchbas screaming or reacting to the battlefield?

[shadow dome]

It’d be cool if we could equip different styles of helmets and body armor, maybe even have a challenge based unlock system where we could complete milestones like sniper rifle kills to unlock a ghillie suit, or shotgun kills for a bandolier of shotgun shells across your chest

[wicked tulip]

Anyone that has a medium sized Battlefield youtube channel please message me 👍

[shadow dome]

Maybe get 500 headshots and unlock a helmet with a gash from a bullet ricocheting off of it

[rugged barn]

support

its health and ammo

it doesnt fit imo

[rugged barn]

Im fond of BFV simplistic system, but i'd love to see either a Ghost Recon or Ground Branch style of customization

[earnest storm]

That map looked good. I think that's what 2042 missed... urban maps

one of the many things rather lol

[near sparrow]

who's ready for operation metro 2026

[subtle saffron]

i agree bro but it needs to be uniformed, like nothing crazy but something to keep players playing and give like a sense of achievement, but fits in with the faction

[tropic folio]

support

[earnest storm]

I saw NATO was one of the factions so whoever called that a few weeks ago here well done lol

[rugged barn]

agreed, make it fit the faction and have general ones, like goggles, masks, etc

but the overall aesthetic stays the same regarding the faction/army

[fervent valve]

Will Labs have like single-player campaign or story mode? or only PVP multiplayer?

[rugged barn]

probably only pvp

[earnest storm]

Anyone know if they brought back the military ranks? Or is it stupid number levels again?

[rugged barn]

since its the most sought after mode in the game

[fervent valve]

Ah

[subtle saffron]

exactly what i was thinking add accessories, it can be a little flexible for things like that, and if they really want transactions what do u think abt gun skins or something

like thats the thing theyre gonna add transactions in some form so we gotta think of something before they do something really stupid

like dlcs would work

and is labs over?

not labs but playtesting

[rugged barn]

if they want to amp up the price to 80 USD im fine with it, HOWEVER, they need to deliver a complete game, with little to no bugs (server issues are fine), if there is MTX, allow us to get in-game currency to get EVERYTHING in the game, same for the battlepass if it has, make it permanent, and allow us to get everything in the game just by playing (im fine with Premium like it was in previous games)

[tropic folio]

campaign is probably going to be worked on internally, they don't want spoilers going out. Besides, all the info they get from multiplayer can be applied to the campaign too

[subtle saffron]

this games about getting the trust back, so i think theyre gonna be light on transactions

[fervent valve]

Ooh alright thanks

[subtle saffron]

and does anyone know if its 64 vs 64 again, or just 32 v 32

[rugged barn]

they could try making 48 v 48

[subtle saffron]

o good idea

[tropic folio]

so far only 32v32, and i hope it stays that way

[rugged barn]

since its a middle ground

[shadow dome]

Maybe variations of the same uniform, there could be a clean option, a worn option, there could be options with stuff like a helmet cam. There could be unique options for each class where support can wear ammo belts or carry a medic satchel over their shoulder, engineer could have a backpack with rpg rockets or mechanical equipment for repairing vehicles, recon could have different patterns of camo that change color depending on what map your on or maybe a range finder on a helmet, assault could get a bandolier or rifle magazines or shotgun shells or 40mm grenades

[tropic folio]

only increase i'd be fine with is upping it slightly to 70 or something to accommodate larger squads

[fervent valve]

32v32 already very chaotic and its fun

[rugged barn]

I think its funny how Battlebit could make more players in a match with basically same maps but not BF

[tropic folio]

battlebit is basically roblox battlefield tbf

[rugged barn]

that is the point

[tropic folio]

i don't see the point

of course a simpler game can get more players in a map with less issues

[gusty lantern]

sorry whats your point

a less demanding game allows for more players at the same time... what exactly are you trying to convey here

its funny how a millionair can afford to buy more stuff than a homeless person.... that is basicaly what you said

[rugged barn]

The thing is, since its simpler, the issue doesnt lie entirely on graphics

they need to make the maps for it

but it appears they dont want to put up the work

[tropic folio]

a big part of the issue is performance, and i think that's enough of a reason forget 128p servers for a while

[rugged barn]

that is why i said to et up 96

[tropic folio]

you can get the same effect with good map design and 64p

[rugged barn]

48v48

[tropic folio]

why

[limber bough]

more=better

[urban rampart]

do you think bf6 will be heavier but better optimized than bf2042 ? because i'm afraid my 7800xt won't survive bf6

[rugged barn]

64 v 64 is too much, 32 v 32 is fine, but more players could be more hectic and more fun

[tropic folio]

i don't get the obsession with putting more and more people in a server, dice themselves already said 13 years ago that 64p is ideal

[gusty lantern]

dude its not 32 ore 64 players that is the issue. its player density in a given room

[tropic folio]

requirements for labs are low and your card is pretty good, i think you should be fine

[urban rampart]

thx

[rugged barn]

oh i remember BF3 with Metro

It was CHAOTIC

[tropic folio]

yeah player density is what matters, and for that all you need are good maps designed to keep density high (locker, metro, etc)

[rugged barn]

BF4 made that less of a problem with side rooms

[subtle saffron]

yea agree just keep it to the point where u can tell whos who without hud

[tropic folio]

adding players is ironically the lazy solution. It puts more strain on servers and people's computers simply to avoid designing maps in a certain way

then again, i think they never intended to have 128p conquest in the first place

[rugged barn]

Yup

That is why setting up a middle ground would be interesting

[subtle saffron]

they need to add a lot of immersive aspects like bf1 ts is so good

[near sparrow]

yeah i have an 6600 i hope it'll be enough

[rugged barn]

Oh it is

BF1 is top notch in immersion

[near sparrow]

ts 💔

[subtle saffron]

ofc like it needs to come back alive

[rugged barn]

Also please, USE IRL GUN SOUNDS

[tropic folio]

seems pretty immersive so far with the sound design, visuals, and voice lines. Hope they keep improving it

[subtle saffron]

yes and big explosions

[tropic folio]

tank explosions look so good

[elder knoll]

The building destruction looks amazing as well

[fervent valve]

Lots of explosions and never ending shooting sound is just good
