[twin needle]

Then they’ll learn something

[teal fractal]

they wont

they havent

[tender canyon]

I would want to pull a Ned Kelly lmao

[twin needle]

Then they’ll keep getting stomped on

[teal fractal]

yes

therefor balance is bad

[twin needle]

And that’s fine

[teal fractal]

no

[twin needle]

Balance is bad becuase they can’t comprehend the concept of defense and teamplay?

[whole imp]

I wouldnt say theyre necessarily bad persay, more so of they dont understand how the game fundamentally works and that ends up with the matches being jank

[teal fractal]

they are bad

[whole imp]

Battlefield teams dont even come close to remotely understand the word "teamwork"

[teal fractal]

.

[whole imp]

Thats a lot of words

To bad im not reading them

[teal fractal]

im an ex bf1 admin who used to balance and remove maps/weapons/gadgets to try to fix balance ingames

and a high level player 1,5,2042 so i understand the games pretty well

[whole imp]

From a gameplay perspective, i love 1 and 5

Very fun

[short dirge]

Wish 1 was more active

[whole imp]

I do too

[short dirge]

I'm literally waiting to find a certain map

Rn

[teal fractal]

1s gameplay is ass

[whole imp]

Sweat

[teal fractal]

theres way too many bad mechanics in that game

[short dirge]

I still prefer it

[whole imp]

I play bf1 to enjoy the gameplay

Very fun

[short dirge]

I win most of the time literally just cause I can aim

[teal fractal]

bf5 is just entirely ruined by stackers and no balance matches and spread to recoil conversion its almost always unplayable especially if youre good and just get outright banned from community servers for it and have to be forced to play on dice against cheaters aswell

[whole imp]

Why did you get banned from community servers

[teal fractal]

because i farmed the lobbies too hard

[whole imp]

Lol

[teal fractal]

i understand it in a way but like its stupid to gatekeep the servers

i want to play the game aswell like what am i supposed to do about others being bad

[whole imp]

Maybe dont tryhard as much next time

[teal fractal]

idek the game i have 120h on it

and i dont particularly tryhard its just that my casual autopilot is just good

i havent "try harded" in like 3 years

[whole imp]

The recoil isnt bad, i enjoy not being beamed by an smg 300m away

[teal fractal]

come pc

lose your gunfights because of rng recoil to some dude who accidentally headshots you because his recoil swayed his gun better

[whole imp]

Skill issue

[teal fractal]

nah

[whole imp]

Shouldve looked .5 seconds into the future to learn what the random recoil pattern was going to be

[teal fractal]

it just makes target switching stupid too because youll have random recoil everytime

your screen center can be directly where it has to be and then it completely gets eliminated because your gun went x or y

idk how i have 30% accuraccy there its impossible to aim with any gun

[whole imp]

Me when i cant predict where every single bullet is going to land so i cant adjust my aim by 3 pixels to always get headshots

[teal fractal]

bf4 and bf1 had the best gunplay

visual recoil was a tad excessive in 1 though

they shouldve made the recoil stronger and just put a slight visual recoil

but actual recoil practically doesnt exist

[tidal canopy]

Battlefield v

[teal fractal]

its like 0. something

unnoticable recoil pretty much

[whole imp]

Join ZIG, KAOS, 501ST, or something i dunno

[tidal canopy]

😂 yeah but I don't have any links

[whole imp]

Im not too sure how you actually join them but those are the ones i see the most

[teal fractal]

why are you giving na clans to an eu player

[whole imp]

Or GSP

Oh wait youre right

Lol

[tidal canopy]

Idk I haven't found anything on tag discord

[teal fractal]

just dm some dude

[whole imp]

I think you have to have someone in the clan/platoon friended and then you can send a request to join but i might be wrong

[tidal canopy]

Who 😂

[teal fractal]

well clans generally want to get to know you first before they recruit anyone unless its like some super random clan who really doesnt care about who they recruit

but larger clans with a larger image want to get to know you first

[teal fractal]

idk im not a playstation player nor a bf5 player

[whole imp]

I dont know any EU clans sory

[teal fractal]

just play games and see if youll meet any

[whole imp]

Anyways mr pickle, good day, i go to sleep

[orchid bear]

is it possible to get support for battlefield 1 here?

[teal fractal]

what support

dude i just tried the bf portal mode where its like "bf2,3" and whatnot

it feels like it was deliberately made bad for people to understand how bad it is to have 50km wide maps with no movement and wide open fields

[orchid bear]

i think that pretty much gives me my answer

[teal fractal]

what do you need help with though

[orchid bear]

my battlefield 1 still shows up as trial even after purhcase

and i cant access the soldier page, says i dont own the game

[teal fractal]

you bought it on ea app?

[orchid bear]

which is odd considering i do

[orchid bear]

mh hm

[teal fractal]

and where did your trial come from

ea play?

[orchid bear]

i played the trial during the time it was on origin

a long time ago

[teal fractal]

and the purschase went through you got the receipt and everything?

you can check like purschases from your account page probably

see if there was some error there maybe its just pending and didnt go through fully

[orchid bear]

would i be able to play and log hours if it hadnt gone through sir?

[teal fractal]

i mean like the money is pending in your bank meaning ea didnt recieve it so it also didnt give you the game but if its pending then youll just get your money back after a certain time

you can probably check it if you log into ea from google

so no if you didnt recieve the game you still cant play

i know my friend had a purchasing issue with bf42 but i think it was more of an bf42 exclusive issue lol

he just messaged ea support through i think either ea app or through ea acc from google login

[teal fractal]

https://myaccount.ea.com/

[graceful jolt]

Anyone up for some Battlefield 4? Would love to bring back the good old days! (I'm German, by the way 🇩🇪)

[tidal shuttle]

G18 will always be my secondary

[solid mural]

battlefield

[gaunt kestrel]

if i buy normal battelfiield

not revolution

how much will revulution dlc cozy after?

[summer forge]

Is it still on sale?

[kindred sail]

it ain't on sale atm, but I highly recommend you buy the revolution edition

pretty sure there will be another sale on EA app around easter

bf franchise is on a sale each month

[whole imp]

Guys the plane reticle for bfv is burned into my vision, is that bad

[solar nexus]

I don't think the regular battlefield 1 is available for sale

[summer forge]

Wellll 🤣

[whole imp]

:P

[summer forge]

Good times with V, H29, and TUFF

[solar nexus]

OLED?

[summer forge]

I wish V had had team chat on console

[whole imp]

I duno

Actually you cant use a keyboard and mouse for bfv on PS

I tried

PS chat us toxic enough as it is

Imo

[tidal shuttle]

The games support kb

Xim exists

Devs just need to allow chat or at the very least have the ability to used Voip

[summer forge]

Only because casuals ruin the game for those of us actually playing lol

Just playing makes us “toxic” now

[whole imp]

Theres ingame chat, its just limited to your squad

But honestly the chance of you finding a random who actually utilizes their mic is slim to none

[tidal shuttle]

Wasn’t there when it mattered

Also

[whole imp]

I mean i get it, but i do despise people who use fliegers, and altitude trapping. Really the only people who get hate from me

[tidal shuttle]

It’s just nice to have the option to communicate with your teammates somehow

most folks are in disc anyway

So the toxic would be hardly noticed

[summer forge]

Don’t worry, we hate planes when they’re against us 😂

[whole imp]

Yeah i understand the planes being on the opposing side as well

Which is why I try not to target infantry so hard

[summer forge]

I legit had to remind myself you meant Discord and not compact disc #old

[tidal shuttle]

disc or party chat

one or the other

[summer forge]

Nvm

You didn’t get it lol

Disc like CD disc

[whole imp]

Besides, even if i do target infantry like that it more often than not leads to 2 or more SPAA, and AA emplacements harrasing me

[summer forge]

Most of my team chat in 2042 is “anyone actually playing? Or just my squad?”

Or if we lose by a lot and someone goes “gg”, I’ll respond with “hardly” or “not even close” lol

[whole imp]

Most of the time i hear someone with a mic its 90% of the time some indian or mexican dude with loud as hell music in the background

[tidal shuttle]

Well its soulless

Don’t need to talk to anyone if everyone is an army of one anyway

go into hll.. mfs always talkin

[summer forge]

When I can afford the game and find some consistent people to squad up with I will

[tidal shuttle]

it’s just nice to see some classes work together

Then cmndr always complaining abt smth

[vapid osprey]

Anyone Playing Battlefield 1 this evening? I'm in North America but I will play Europe servers if needed. DM me 🙂

[shrewd palm]

Same North America I’m open to play

[dark jackal]

Any raging take alot of crap serious funny talks to themselves alot socio maybe phsyco wants to play battlefield

Lying it is pretty funny i like it

but anybody wanna play BF 4. V. 20………4…2);

Sike f 2042 on me game sucks

[whole imp]

Can you type in english

Im having a stroke trying to read that

[vapid osprey]

[tall haven]

Hey David, don't forget to add the Ash-12 to Battlefield 6

[scenic elm]

This makes me feel old

[summer forge]

I want to find a restored windows XP tower just so I can pull out my old ROM games 😅

[vague vine]

Hello

[arctic plaza]

Hi guys, so I hopped onto BFV last night to play some games, and 4 out of 4 games had some guy with admin controls continually killing the entire server. Is this the new norm? 4 different servers as well

Was I just unlucky?

(I mean the entire server, both sides. Everyone would fall dead)

[tired crow]

who want play bf 1

[vague vine]

I want to ask is battlefield 1 good?

[tired crow]

yes i hate 100+ hours

[vague vine]

Meaning it's bad game?

[tired crow]

good

[summer forge]

He meant “have” lol

Autocorrect must have taken over

[summer forge]

Platform?

[vague vine]

Can you play multiplayer on it?

[summer forge]

Yep

If BF 4 still has an active multiplayer then 1 for sure has

[vague vine]

And can you play with friends (which I don't have)

[summer forge]

Of course

Are you new to battlefield?

[vague vine]

But I only bought battlefield 1 which was on discount

☹️

[vague vine]

Yes

[summer forge]

Should’ve bought them all while on sale. 6 games (I think) for like $16

Except for BF 3 they all have an active multiplayer

[vague vine]

Ohh

[summer forge]

Battlefield as a franchise isnt like a normal franchise where the old ones die out

[arctic plaza]

On the PC

[summer forge]

There’s a small community still playing battlefield 2 lol

[arctic plaza]

Also wtf is that username?

[summer forge]

That’s mild unfortunately lol

[arctic plaza]

Already reported you pal, change your name all you want

[summer forge]

PC has been having issues with serves lately

[summer forge]

Now why would you go and do that lol

[arctic plaza]

Because he had a racist username and is still racist

[summer forge]

You must be new to the internet

[arctic plaza]

Nah

[vague vine]

Which one battlefield 1?

[summer forge]

All

[vague vine]

Money wasted 😭

[tired crow]

what im not racist

[arctic plaza]

Just don't see why people shouldn't call out incel racism when they see it because the racists will get angry, don't get a free pass cos it's the internet

[summer forge]

🤦‍♂️ dude just play it ok? It’s not money wasted. Just gotta work through the issues occasionally smh

[vague vine]

How much time it takes to match making?

[summer forge]

Youd hate the usernames in game lol

[tired crow]

1 min

[vague vine]

Asia server?

[jade lintel]

Its short just try playing man

[arctic plaza]

Racist usernames are bad, yes

[jade lintel]

Find our for yourself

[vague vine]

Ok i download it 🥲

[arctic plaza]

Only on the internet is that a hot take

[vague vine]

Maybe I get some friend in my solo life 🥲🥲🥲

[summer forge]

I just ignore it. The internet is full of billions of players. Getting angry at select people you cross paths with isnt worth it.

[arctic plaza]

Firing off a report and highlighting their racism is minimal effort, they rely on the apathy of the internet to hide their cowardice, discussions about why bother putting effort into highlighting racism takes more time. 😛

[summer forge]

Ah, you’re one of those 👍

[arctic plaza]

What's that?

Saying that us having this pointless discussion takes more time than just firing off a report, saying 'you're a racist'? I'm confused

[sudden locust]

What’s up Gs

Can I see my current emblem inside bf1?

[sterile jolt]

I wish I could play 2142

[vague vine]

Is battlefield 1 revolution and battlefield 1 same?

[summer forge]

Revolution is the base game and DLC

[vague vine]

Ok

[vale monolith]

Is bf1 server rental down?

[gloomy ginkgo]

BFV Community servers are STILL broken for days. When will you fix this? #FixBFV_Day6 #DICE_admin #EA

[sterile current]

Is there any chance they could add a solo mode for conquest and Breakthrough for BFV? I’d still like to be able to play those after the server goes down.

[inner pagoda]

all of multiplayer is online only. Only the war stories would be available to you

[sterile jolt]

They shouldn't

Hardcore shouldn't even exist

[sterile current]

Y’know all I want is a co-op/solo mode for both conquest and breakthrough for BFV but we all know how DICE feels about game preservation post-server shut down.

[inner pagoda]

Hardcore has been a Battlefield staple as early as Bad Company 2

[inner pagoda]

It isnt DICE, its EA

also the DICE you know and love have moved on from EA and made their own studio to make The Finals

[sterile jolt]

DICE who told us to not buy BFV

[gloomy ginkgo]

HARDCORE is the best

[desert bridge]

Yes, fix it please.....that custom servers are soooo boring

If No Hardcore soon, we have to play sth else 🥴

[gloomy ginkgo]

yeah and normal mode there's so many cheaters (use panzerbuche glitch)

[desert bridge]

If EA and Dice cant fix, why should buy new BF then....

Maybe happens there too onee day and then wasted money again XD

[summer forge]

Amazes me how many server problems PC is having right now

[whole imp]

So did the server problems just happen on all platforms then?

[tidal shuttle]

If bf6 has a br we have to hope for its success

if bf6 has a hc mode

wish for it’s success

🤝

[gentle plover]

You had me until there

[tidal shuttle]

Why hope for its failure

it attracts players

having players means the game is healthy. More bf is better then less bf

the problem is dice keeps changing hc mechanics from feedback,.. just lose the hud and less hp I don’t see the fuss

[gentle plover]

I just hope it doesn't exist at all, learn and love the game for what it is or go play milsims

[tidal shuttle]

L

[gentle plover]

The more we keep trying to cater to people who have no idea what BF is the more the identity gets muddled and feedback becomes a whirlwind of daft and uninformed opinions

[tidal shuttle]

they should’ve never changed hc it was fine the way it was, people just like to complain tm. It’s not meant to be hyper milsimy

less hud less hp no regen that’s it

[gentle plover]

Sounds like an awful way to play an arcade FPS with an already fast TTK

[tidal shuttle]

ttk has always been a problem look how long it took dice to address it in bf5

all they needed was 2 modes

problem fixed one with fast ttk one with medium ttk

They tried to merge the two

[tidal shuttle]

With a 60hz server ttk will naturally be fast

[solid herald]

all bf got some update what happened

[sterile current]

If I were to tell you Battlefield 5 is vital to me keeping a healthy weight would you believe me?

Basically, looking through sniper or any scope for that matter, increases my heart rate. Doing so burns calories on me. I lost 40 pounds from 200 just by playing Battlefield 5.

[tropic folio]

lmao

[whole imp]

Is there a reason for that?

[solid hinge]

Bf42 now ?

[sterile jolt]

Other way around

BF3 had 150 ms TTK and 10 hz servers, literally single frame death lol

BF4 has slowest TTK in modern BF besides BF1-V DMRs

[solid glen]

whats the community testing environment for BF4? do i have to download it for anything, or can i just ignore it?

[summer forge]

Probably just ignore it

[solid glen]

bought BF4 premium and have everything installed, but if i try joining a server using a DLC map it tells me i don't own it

[tawdry narwhal]

Bruh I freaking couldn't win using the field guns against the train in the campaign, I'd die every dang time I went in one too long and I literally was one hit away and got killed, but the next try? Thing blew up at half health

[zinc snow]

I’m going to have to try this

[supple burrow]

reset the game or maybe check if u actually instaled all

[solid glen]

anyway to fix BF4 graininess on console?

[limber bough]

Play on pc

[teal fractal]

Not really

Its pretty onpar with bf1, 5 and 2042

[dark jackal]

Bring back bfv animations

And the weighty feel and momentum from climber to vaulting to jumping a wall we have to destroy the WALLLL

[worthy sapphire]

wait people like the bf3 blue filter now?

💀

i hope its just a reddit thing

[livid bay]

They have rose tinted glasses

Or blue tinted, I guess

[worthy sapphire]

at least they arent pee tinted ones

im so glad we dont have yellow games anymore

[lean spindle]

Why is Battlefield 1 so unbalanced. Every game the enemy obtain all objects in few mins.

[formal bloom]

Why don't we have a channel here or a Battlefield LABS Discord?... a direct channel from the developer to us, being moderated and receiving feedback from the community. I think it's a mistake to think that the "COMMUNITY" is all in EUROPE or NORTH AMERICA. And there's no direct channel with us... to give us feedback on the new tests. Just leaks, just leaks...

[opal schooner]

There's literally channels for people in the playtests and they provide update posts in a thread.

[languid sinew]

https://discord.com/channels/140933721929940992/1347495120395702352

Like those ones?

[tropic folio]

you ever hear someone say that you don't know what you don't know

[formal bloom]

My friend, thank you... for me this was not active or did not appear... I don't know.

[sterile jolt]

I want to not being able to see 💩 in the next game because of sun or no buy

[worthy sapphire]

those tests are literally not aimed at the whole playerbase, thats their whole point

[languid sinew]

Editing the color of your red dot crosshair would be a nice feature again. In 2042 you only have default red dots. Sometimes I barely can see it when looking at the sand dunes on haven or an especially bright surface. Purple red dot is goated.

[vague vine]

I want to know which battlefield has maximum no. of players?

[vague vine]

Hello I am new to battlefield 1 anyone like to play with me?

[waxen loom]

no

new should go to noobonly server

[fiery thorn]

what resolution scale do yall play on in battlefield 1?

[tropic folio]

100

[sterile jolt]

I always carry a smart holo alongside red dot because of sand maps, smart holo really helps with visibility due to blue reticle

[solid glen]

K8 Holo works as well

[solar quarry]

420x69

[fiery thorn]

alrigth thanks

Is battlefield v still active on Xbox? Can I still get all the achievements? What's the player population?

[vapid igloo]

battlefield 3 co op?

[karmic knot]

Does anyone know when exactly does the exchange menu change in bf1?

[cerulean spire]

nah

[kindred sail]

usually on monday

but it hasn't been updated this week

[clear hill]

He left

[clear hill]

And he left

[spare raft]

does anyone know how to update what platforms you can play on for battlefield labs if chosen???

[limber raft]

Does someone know if the specialist are coming back, because I really like them

[kindred sail]

Probably not, majority of the player base hates them

[livid bay]

That are not. Classes are basically confirmed to be returning

[opal schooner]

Not even basically they just are

[limber raft]

Too bad, I’m going to miss the dialogues at the end of the round and Ryan McArthur saying that we don’t like specialist because we don’t understand them

[sterile jolt]

No Mackay, no Zain = no buy

[spice elk]

Why does bf1 crash during operations cutscene when theres another vid running on 2nd monitor

[olive lark]

bf5 community servers are down?

[summer forge]

Don’t let the door hit you 👍😂

[whole imp]

They have been for awhile

[unkempt bolt]

Do we still host event in battlefield 4 and 1?

[vague vine]

Matchmaking is very bad for battlefield 1 didn't seen a single player playing this game i waited for more than 10 min no people joined the game ☹️

[summer forge]

Did you use the server browser?

[vague vine]

I use quick matchmaking

@summer forge

[ebon sigil]

Bf1?

[summer forge]

Gotta use server browser, not quick match

Only way to find active servers now

[ebon sigil]

Yeah

[vague vine]

Meaning? I am new to this game

[ebon sigil]

U gotta click "multiplayer" at the top than click "server browser" and u can find active servers

[summer forge]

https://youtu.be/iBfmtBTjNvY?si=40b3rojClYH3MeVb

[vague vine]

Ohh ok

[summer forge]

That’s a quick tutorial of finding active servers

[ebon sigil]

Glad to help

[vague vine]

👍

[ebon sigil]

But it might be different in Asia

[waxen loom]

new players in Asia should go to “noobonly”

dont try any server called“qx”

and dont try“nolimit”

[teal fractal]

113 servers 3700 players in asia pc

[vague vine]

Very less people active☹️

[radiant lichen]

I need help getting this rendezook card, I’ve been tryout g for months but no luck. I appreciate it. My psn is
Legend4-Now

[teal fractal]

Probably bad filters

[vague vine]

Meaning?

@teal fractal

[teal fractal]

Go server browser and set filters

Set your region, modes you want to play

Server space none or 1-5

[waxen loom]

Asian server need wait for CN's night

only 4000 on PC now

but yesterday its 15000

[jaunty sand]

seeing a good amount of posts on the sub about weapon recoil in response to the bf6 leaks

most of em goes like "yea bro old battlefield games have recoil. 2042 guns had none and bf6 is looking the same as 2042"

first off, old bf games dont rly have recoil on most guns. its pretty ignoreable most of the time

secondly, the reason u didnt just full auto all the time in old games was because of spread, which people seem to be missing entirely

[teal fractal]

Not possible lol

[pastel frigate]

Yeah maybe bf1 was made on an other planet

[jaunty sand]

wdym bf1 recoil is whatever

its the random spread that makes shooting feel bad

[random blade]

must be spread that people refer to when they discuss recoil

i've seen hundreds of comments on recoil and have no idea what world they are in where 'recoil used to be high'

unless 1942 ended up having far more than I expected

[karmic knot]

I discovered that it was a universal thing, I thought it just changed based on what I used most recently every week

[teal fractal]

Bf1 has 0. Something recoil lol

It practically doesnt exist

[kindred sail]

nope, it's being updated by a person, join us here 🙂 https://forums.ea.com/discussions/battlefield-franchise-discussion-en/weekly-weapons-scrap-exchange-updates/6746142

[hasty marsh]

The only bf game with genuinley high recoil is 5
but I can see why someone could beam someone from accross the map full auto and conclude the issue is recoil.

[waxen loom]

its 13000 now

like I said

[teal fractal]

Wtf it is

I dont get it

[waxen loom]

BF1 players on PC

at least steam

[kindred sail]

https://graphs.gametools.network/d/9_smhoZVk/global-battlefield-titles?orgId=1&from=now-30d&to=now&timezone=browser&refresh=1h

here's a better assessment

also you need to think that people who have BF 1 on steam purchased it after 2020 since battlefield wasn't on steam between 2009-2020

[summer forge]

Who needs logic anyway (jk)

[exotic gyro]

Hello, I have tried everywhere to get my word to the Battlefield team but i cannot
I, along with around 8-9 of my friends, regularly play Battlefield 1. However, we face a very big issue: we only get good ping on Middle East servers.

The problem is that while there are some Middle East servers available, they have the preround requirement enabled , meaning the game doesn't actually start until 10 players are in the server.

Most of the time, these servers stay empty because no one can populate them alone. Even if a few players join, the game won't begin, which leads to people leaving again. It's a vicious cycle.

we believe that disabling the preround requirement , so that even a single player can start the match , would help revive activity on these servers. It would allow smaller groups (like ours) to enjoy the game with good ping instead of being forced to play on 170+ ping servers elsewhere.

This small change could make a big difference for the Middle East community still passionate about BF1.
I know that you are not going to read this but please let me know if i can contact any other person directly

[teal fractal]

Theres 13k in just asia alone by gt stats

That counts both ea play and steam users

And now it died down to 1.7k what

Does asia use a lot of bots then

[kindred sail]

Your only option is to rent a server and disable the pre round

[sharp cargo]

BF4: do i need to complete all the phantom assignments to unlock the Phantom Operative assignment?

[tired thunder]

yes. google is your friend: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2602925775

[exotic gyro]

isnt this kind of frstrating that there are 6 servers with good ping right in front of you but you cant play because there is no admin who is free enough to just toggle a single setting on to revive those servers. Really weird.

[kindred sail]

it sure is but I doubt it that it will be changed, you could post this on the BF forums maybe you'll get an official response

also hosting servers will work for pretty much any game mode aside from operations

that requires a different path

[summer forge]

Daily PSA that BF V console players are useless

[tulip grail]

what happened to Banzore 6 on bf4?

[tired thunder]

better is to ask on banzore's discord server what happened

they have one

[solid hinge]

Looking at the battlefield 6 leaks , I don't think so it will launch by next year maybe atleast 2026 end or 2027

[proud moth]

it will release a month and a half after GTA 6 this year trust

[solid hinge]

Trust me bro ?

[jade verge]

is there new info

i stopped checking because the gameplay was looking dry as fuck

[solid hinge]

Because it's a pre alpha. Very early stages of development

[jade verge]

sure but theyve already recorded lots of bland dialog which im sure theyre not gonna replace most of it, and in general these games visual styles get dictated way before any actual development, i have no doubts the actual gameplay will improve but the overall style of the game seems really cookie cutter, sorry if i didnt convey that right

[solid hinge]

It's cod time

Battlefield is dead

[karmic knot]

Wait, what? They ask him what to put in and he does it?

That's pretty cool tbh

[fiery thorn]

whats the worst bf game ever produced?

[proud moth]

2042

[solid hinge]

2042

I tried battlefield 1 and V then I didn't like v but battlefield 1 gameplay is best

But the problem is I don't like ww1 or ww2 game

Currently that delta force copy of battlefield has 10 times more players than original battlefield

I won't play any battlefield until next battlefield

[fiery thorn]

oh

[random blade]

hopefully the next one does well

[sterile jolt]

Good, amounts of people praising 2042 launch maps needs to get a reality check

At least BF6 maps are dense and small from what we've seen

[jade verge]

battlefield 3 aftershock

[fiery thorn]

alrigth thanks for the info

[jade verge]

the mobile game fyi

[summer forge]

Hopefully we get a couple bigger maps

[kindred sail]

it happens here and there, until 2020/21 there was a guy who used to put stuff that people wanted, now it's hit or miss

[kindred sail]

are there any people who praise the maps, I haven't heard that before

[arctic plaza]

They've literally stated they are placeholder assets/voice lines from older iterations of past games.

[summer forge]

Not really. Plus he likes to parade 2042 like it’s goated. Can’t tell if he’s legit or trolling lol

[arctic plaza]

Launch Hourglass is better than the remake

https://tenor.com/view/funhaus-gif-13071746

[summer forge]

Now that’s trolling

Only map that was better OG is Manafest

[arctic plaza]

I honestly liked launch Hourglass. I think I'm the only person on planet earth (and therefore, the known universe) who does

In my opinion, the new Hourglass just funnels fights through 3 different paths with not much deviation. A lot of people like that, I'm just not a massive fan

Looks very pretty though

OG hourglass, if you filled it with vehicles similar to Panzerstorm from V, would've been so fun on the wide open desert/submerged town. Problem was if you didn't choose one of the few built up hotspots, you had to go on a 5 mile hike

[summer forge]

That’s fair. But tbh it’s no different than the triangle on Orbital, Discarded, Renewal, and Breakaway

[sterile jolt]

Told you so

[summer forge]

That you’re trolling? Yea we know

That or brain dead lol

[arctic plaza]

They're just opinions guys

I'm not saying I'm objectively correct

I just enjoyed launch Hourglass

I'm aware most didn't, and it had to change

[summer forge]

Nah you’re good

He likes to talk like 2042 is the best BF 😂😂

[arctic plaza]

Definitely not the best, but I genuinely really enjoy it

Played since BF2, only one I haven't played is the OG 1942

[sterile jolt]

2142 is the best BF

[arctic plaza]

I've had a tonne more fun with 2042 than I did with crowd favourites 4 and BC2

[summer forge]

Bro, share whatever you’re smoking. Don’t keep it all for yourself.

[arctic plaza]

2142 is my favourite though

2142, 3 and V

[sterile jolt]

I am not sure if I'm allowed to share the brand, I smoke 🚬 though

[arctic plaza]

I pray one day for a 2143

[sterile jolt]

Same

[summer forge]

I enjoyed it at first, but once I Tier 1’d most of the specialists and 98% of the guns it just got boring. S500+ and between rinse and repeat gameplay and absolutely trash player base I went back to V

[arctic plaza]

Hey, I would say though dude, T1 most specialists and S500, you got a MASSIVE amount of replayability for it

I'm S120ish

Arguably, you have completed the game haha, not surprised you're bored

[sterile jolt]

I'm like S80ish and never touched regular conquest

[arctic plaza]

I've recently got back into V on the PC after playing on the XB1 years ago. God it's such a fun game, shame everyone is running around with the silly epic hero skins (and I wish suppression hit harder like in 3 and 1), but it's so enjoyable

[arctic plaza]

Whaaaaaat

CQ or bust

[summer forge]

Thats the thing though, I’m only lvl 274 on V but even 6 years later it still has great replay ability

[sterile jolt]

I almost exclusively play CQC or whenever there is another infantry focused mode

[arctic plaza]

Maybe we have different time scales for the longevity of a game, I am level 40ish and feel like I've been getting loads out of V

[summer forge]

Plus the clan community is still really active on console so there’s a competitive environment on V where there’s zero competitive on 2042

[arctic plaza]

I see

Well I hope 6 scratches everyone's itch

[summer forge]

PC doesnt really have clans. Console though has had clans/platoons since the beginning

Console has had platoons since BC I believe

[arctic plaza]

2142 setting, 1 atmosphere and sound design, V movement customisation and gunplay, BC2 destructibility, 2042 gadget/teamplay cohesion

And I would play NOTHING else

[summer forge]

You forgot to add in 4. Because we all know (sarcasm) that that’s the only true BF

[arctic plaza]

Honestly 4 is fun, but it's pretty low down on the list for me

It felt like a streamlined 3

With horrendous gunbloat holy shit

If I had to add in stuff from 4, the urban maps were really fun, and levolution, though gimmicky, is fun as hell

Squad perks from 4 would be a good addition

[summer forge]

I want the squad points system back from 1 and V

[arctic plaza]

And commander mode hell yeah, launching ICBMs whilst taking a shit was great

[summer forge]

Great motivation to do great as a squad so you can drop arty and bombs

[arctic plaza]

Yes squad point system is awesome

Needs to be more granular though, instead of just saving up for the big bomb

Deployable stationary turrets or something, cover, emp pulse etc.

So you have a good selection

[summer forge]

I mean, you could call in other stuff that cost less points

We just always save for bombs lol

[arctic plaza]

Yeah but it was pneh, 2k for a supply crate or I could just save up for bombs

Exactly yeah haha

Smoke barrage can be useful

Anyway back to work, ciao

[cerulean spire]

2042 is peak

screw playing for competition

play for fun

like

screw around

it's a giant exploration sim fr

[peak quarry]

Is hardline dead on Xbox series x ?

[summer forge]

Competition IS fun for some of us. Hence the platoons in every BF previous

But you also sound like a solo player so it makes sense you’re there to screw around

[cerulean spire]

i play with friends

solo is ass

if im solo, i play competitively

[summer forge]

Outside of tdm I only play with my friends. We’re all competitive.

It’s why we like V more than 2042

[cerulean spire]

you should try screwing around

like

testing limits of things

it's fun

like bomb drones 😭

[summer forge]

Eh, I’m more focused on winning games 🤷‍♂️

[cerulean spire]

aww man

[summer forge]

Before I got into platoons I was much more like you and screwed around. But once I got in with these guys and started winning games and getting best squad theres no going back for me lol

I play the game like I played sports 😂

[cerulean spire]

https://tenor.com/view/battlefield2042-gif-25466078

damn

[summer forge]

Don’t get me wrong, I think casual players should definitely have their thing in the game

But after 2042, if they don’t go back to how previous BF was, then there needs to be modes or servers for the more competitive players that’s not automatically HC

[past trail]

Fucking knew it, next game is gonna have sbmm / eomm. GG not buying

Dice always copying cod now no matter what and they don't care about the playerbase

[teal fractal]

Well server browser wont be a thing lol

And even if it were then console players wouldnt survive in a comp scene in bf

[trim plank]

I dont think BF scale works with SBMM at all- the only modes that can reasonably support it are like 12v12

otherwise theyll need some sort of sorting algorithm to ensure the top tier players are fewer in a match

[summer forge]

We’ve talked about this

If 98% of BF players are trash then we’ll just have to get better somehow

[summer forge]

And the comp scene won’t be the 1% esports scene that you’re used to

[summer forge]

Well then theres Portal or whatever name they choose to call it

[glad basin]

hello here, i need help with easter egg in BF1. I translated Morse code and it says "CHURCH RUINS AMIENS", but when i come to ruins, here nothing, here no any symbol in corner, what wrong with this situation?

[cerulean spire]

battlefield easter eggs are horrid

it's prob outside the church or sumthn

[tropic folio]

source?

[glad basin]

nah, i whached all ruins at, near and in church, but here no this thing

[cerulean spire]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZ0cWguy_58

small shit

the battlefield devs are good

[glad basin]

here no this small thing

[cerulean spire]

use this link

it should help

[glad basin]

already checked, here no little thing in corner

[glossy flicker]

Man the f35 and su 57 are so darn useless

You get one or two kills every 5 minutes from other jets and helicopters

[wary sigil]

Do NOT add sbmm

just dont

Bad system

[cerulean spire]

on which one

[wary sigil]

Any games bro the entire fps genre is on deaths door

[cerulean spire]

ok but you gotta agree

the finals needs it

[teal fractal]

It wont work

[summer forge]

It will for some of us

If PC is equally trash, regardless of being on a superior platform, then some of us will still be able to do better.

Will we ever be objectively as great as you and the 10 other players you’ve mentioned? Not at all.

For the rest of us mediocre players though some of us can be better average vs just trash.

[teal fractal]

Youre technically implementing an sbmm system in a bf game

Its not bound to work

[summer forge]

You mean by the mentality of “get better” ?

[teal fractal]

No youre making a casual setting have sbmm like “comp mode”

The games are going to be entirely rng

Just look at cod

[kindred sail]

have they confirmed sbmm for next bf?

[teal fractal]

Yeah it wont be a thing

[summer forge]

Why do you think I’ve been saying there needs to be a mode where the trash competitive players can go and leave the trash casual players alone

[teal fractal]

The trash casual players are = to trash comp players

Just get good in usual lobbies and compete in actual comps

[summer forge]

You’ve seen my games, if I and my squad were equal to casual trash then we wouldn’t land where we do at end of game

So no, on console we’re not equal

[teal fractal]

It doesnt matter where you end at the end of the match

You won purely because you are in a team

[summer forge]

Yea I forgot, you hate stacks

And no use for scoreboard lol

[teal fractal]

It isnt even that lol

Youd be spawn trapped against genuinelly good comp players

Youre just usual players

Your individual skill level isnt higher than anyone elses

[summer forge]

If we’re “casual” and then what does that make the players that never see good stats?

[teal fractal]

Youre causal because youre competing against nothing with skill level that is equal to average

You just play to win casual lobbies like anyone else

[summer forge]

Well those “casual” lobbies get pretty sweaty and hard playing

[teal fractal]

Okay its still a casual game where youre competing against other causal players

Go play 5v5 dom against 4kpm bf5 players in a stack

[summer forge]

I don’t have a PC

[teal fractal]

It wouldnt make a difference

[summer forge]

And you’ll never (or rarely) find a 4kpm player on NA console

You literally said that yourself

Console sees 1-2 kpm by your own words

[stoic bone]

This server is for battlefield 2042 only?

[summer forge]

Battlefield in general

All games

[stoic bone]

Good thank you

[summer forge]

#battlefield-2042

[foggy crescent]

How can this game be such a big piece of dogshit, i uninstalled it like a year ago now because it couldnt launch after the antivirus update, and after a FULL clean reinstall of both the game and the EA app itself it still cant launch

ive went through all the fixes online, countless steam discussions, EA forums discussions and its still broken as fuck, what is this??

How can you break a game like, this hard for most of your userbase??

[summer forge]

PC?

[foggy crescent]

No error message or anything, steam just says its running for a couple secs and it vanishes, fucken poof

[foggy crescent]

yeah im a PC player

well i was

and now im not ANY kind of player because ea cant implement a basic system to work for users

[summer forge]

PC has been having issues with all BF games for like a month now it feels like

More players are commenting in here about launch and server problems

[foggy crescent]

Not being able to launch the game for like 1.5 years is NOT AN ISSUE, its a SHAME on the company like hello???

[summer forge]

That’s true as well

[foggy crescent]

This isnt like a "hang on we will connect you to our customer service experts" i literally SCOURED the forums and did everything everyone recommended twice

and it still wont launch

[summer forge]

Unfortunately i can’t say the same. I’m on console

[teal fractal]

Yes

[foggy crescent]

i literally didnt even mod bf5, i did mod bf1 and that wasnt launching either so i can sort of understand if i completely broke that and thats on me, but bf5 not launching AT ALL is just a horrid showcase of their incompetence.

im literally out of solutions now too, i even meddled with the registry editor and put in a custom Install Directory for the game and it STILL wont launch

[teal fractal]

Why would you mod gamefiles when theres a system that detects modding

[foggy crescent]

i want to play the game i paid for and steam wont even give me a refund on it (ive tried before when it wasnt working)

[teal fractal]

Youre just asking for the game to break

[foggy crescent]

What system? In battlefield 1? Modding is semi supported in the game, its not even complicated

[teal fractal]

Im aware yes

[summer forge]

Does 2042 put EU players in with NA players?

[teal fractal]

No

[foggy crescent]

and would you care to at least read my entire message? I said i can sort of UNDERSTAND if something broke because i modded bf1, but bf5 i literally didnt even touch as far as im aware

[teal fractal]

Why would it lol

[foggy crescent]

and its still broken as fuck with the same issues

[teal fractal]

Bf5 crashes on launch?

[summer forge]

Then why in the world would you tell me to go play against 4kpm players if I’m never going to really play against them? You’ve said that even on PC the NA players don’t find 4kpm

[teal fractal]

Documents- bf5 - settings and turn off dx12

[teal fractal]

Come pc then

[foggy crescent]

okay this is one i have not tried yet to be fair

[teal fractal]

Actual comp players dont even really touch the game after first few months

[foggy crescent]

ill give it a shot thanks. Even though i have full confidence that it WONT fucking WORK.

[teal fractal]

Okay

[foggy crescent]

Wait, how do i access the documents folder? Through the ea installation?

i have to make it clear that my game is both bought and installed on steam

[summer forge]

I’ll get on that when I have 1,200-1,500 USD to spend lol

[foggy crescent]

I remember there being a startup command for steam that disables dx12 though... would that work? @teal fractal

[summer forge]

Not surprised, y’all get bored quick I’m sure

[teal fractal]

Idk

Probably yes

I havent used steams start up commands

[foggy crescent]

Well what are you referencing here then?

the EA app?

[teal fractal]

You can get a decent pc for 700 on marketplace

[teal fractal]

Documents- Battlefield 5- settings folder and through game files (open with notepad) find dx12 and turn it off manually

[foggy crescent]

ah from the PC's documents directory

i thought you meant somewhere in the ea app

[teal fractal]

Nah

Dx12 is broken on bf5

It causes a lot of crashes on launch for a lot of players, starts loading then shuts down

[summer forge]

That will run the next game?

And even if I did all that, if I tried to play against EU my ping would be ridiculous correct?

[brave wadi]

hello guys

My brother and I bought BF4 today

as we do like it since it was released

however, we're curious if any major updates are comming to it

or is it no more supported by EA and Dice for that ?

[whole imp]

Why do you use KPM as the statistic for how good someone is at the game

90% of players are at below 2.5, and the ones who do have that high of a kpm have highly inflated stats due to their low game counts

[reef wagon]

BF4 support ended nearly a decade ago...

[kindred sail]

do you have asus armory crate, asus game first or malwarebytes isntalled by any chance?

[whole imp]

Actually not even 90%, its probably somewhere close to 95-98% of players who dont have a kpm above 2.5

[brave wadi]

Is it possible to send request to EA to ask for a major update??

[kindred sail]

no

be happy that they haven't shut it down yet

[reef wagon]

it's not gonna happen...

[kindred sail]

btw what is it that you want?

[brave wadi]

But the game is still notably active

I found alot of players

[kindred sail]

there are players yes but it got released 12 years ago

[reef wagon]

notably active does not equal game support

[kindred sail]

since then 4 bf games came out

[tropic folio]

it ain't happening pal

[brave wadi]

Ye but modern warfare is my favorite

The only game that adopt this is 2042 but this one sucks

[reef wagon]

then wait for BF6 (unless the SBMM thing is true, then....)

[kindred sail]

try squad and arma reforger with the modern setting mod

[tropic folio]

then keep playing it

[brave wadi]

While it has some good points, i think that most players dnt like it

[tropic folio]

bf4 is still there

[teal fractal]

Because good kpm stats equal good movement, timing, positioning, aim and good kit play, good understanding of maps

It can 100% inflated yes but its pretty easy to see if it is or if it isnt

[brave wadi]

Got it

[whole imp]

Yeah but like, only maybe the top 20-40 at most have a 4kpm, and even then a decent few are inflated stats

[teal fractal]

What game are you talking about

[whole imp]

1

[teal fractal]

1 reads kpm stats wrong in bftracker

[whole imp]

Is there a more reliable way to check them?

[teal fractal]

So the 3kpm players are probably higher inreality

[teal fractal]

Gt gametools bot yes

[whole imp]

Alr

I have no idea how to navigate that site

I It wont let me look up my stats either

Thta sucks

[solid glen]

hardline is on sale om xbox rn, anyone know how populated servers are?

[teal fractal]

Use the bot on discord it has more functions and easier to use

[whole imp]

If i remember ill do that (im more than likely not going to)

[whole imp]

Arent the battlefield games on sale like 90% of the year?

[solid glen]

yeah

[brave wadi]

so i understand that i did a mistake by buying BF4

[teal fractal]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1093559356966043728/1359991150567493864/image.png?ex=67f97df5&is=67f82c75&hm=c0f3bf8e7fc9822c90ddec3841ad410bc4b2f50be00000fdd20575ad847a1d88&

[foggy crescent]

yo sorry i couldnt respond my discord died randomly

after editing the settings file as the other guy said

[whole imp]

Yeah something happened with mobile discord

[foggy crescent]

i have no idea, im like 90% sure its a coincidence... crazy.

ah okay then its not related

its on PC too

anyway

[teal fractal]

Wrong amount of kills doesnt display weapons used and wrong amount of kills

[whole imp]

Ah ok

[foggy crescent]

@kindred sail yes i do have malwarebytes.

I also run ESET cuz i take antiviruses seriously, but i checked, everything has all the perms and i disabled it during any operations, and nothing is in the quarantine/deleted

so its not ESET, what about malwarebytes?

[teal fractal]

Turning dx12 off didnt work?

[solid pawn]

not really, you can still get some hours in and try the multiplayer and play campaign ... but yeah peak online is pretty much dead

[foggy crescent]

nope it didnt. I put a 0 at the end of it and yeah nothing

[teal fractal]

Weird

[foggy crescent]

i tried enabling and disabling other dx12 related stuff too, nothing.

[solid glen]

fuck it ima buy hardline premium

its $3 anyway

[foggy crescent]

i think ill just start deleteing random EAapp and BF5 related files at this point

because thats true desperation

at this point im so fucking annoyed its the best ive got

literally scoured the internet for solutions and nothing works.

[kindred sail]

So the issue you are having is malwareytes is interfering with the EA anticheat, solution is to close malwarebytes from task tray and then the game should start

[foggy crescent]

so task manager, close every malwarebytes related thing you say?

[kindred sail]

If you have BF 1 as well I'm pretty sure that won't start either

yep

what is ESET?

[foggy crescent]

A more serious antivirus

but nothing got caught in the quarantine and nothing got deleted or blocked

so its not it

[kindred sail]

well it's just that EAAC is very sensitive with the programs you run

I myself use the paid version of bitdefender and never had any issues with that

[foggy crescent]

malwarebytes isnt even running in the background

[kindred sail]

asus armory crate or asus game first?

[foggy crescent]

no wonder, i dont even have a subscription, i just use it to scan every now and then

[foggy crescent]

nope

[kindred sail]

send me a DM with a screenshot of the stuff you got in task tray

[foggy crescent]

brother its like a billion things

[kindred sail]

last guy I helped had a program for monitoring internet traffic that stopped him from starting BF 1

[summer forge]

I got it just to play the campaign/story again 🤷‍♂️

But I know no one does that anymore

[kindred sail]

yeah, why so many things

[foggy crescent]

just the way my PC is

[kindred sail]

with that amount of bloatware no wonder

[brave wadi]

I see

So now we have to switch to bf2042

[kindred sail]

EA play for 3.99 a month and you can test all BF games

[summer forge]

There’s still players, but yea you’re trying to play a 12 year old game and expect activity like it came out last year lol

[summer forge]

1 and V are still active as well

But no more updates either

[foggy crescent]

what do you mean bloatware??

[kindred sail]

RGB software for example

I'll send you a pick of my task tray

[brave wadi]

Got it thanks all

[kindred sail]

the other option in case you don't find the program causing this issue is to format the pc install windows and drivers only, I repeat windows and drivers only and then the EA app and bf

that should work 100%

then you can start installing stuff and at some point you'll install the program causing the issue and you'll find it

also do you have the latest updates for windows?

that usually causes issues as well

[teal fractal]

Software that doesnt really do anything aside from trying to download or sell you things

[foggy crescent]

i do.

[tidal shuttle]

F sbmm

[kindred sail]

well then time to close shit down in task tray and see when bf starts

[foggy crescent]

That sounds like something way out of my skill for operating windows

[kindred sail]

did you buy the pc the way it is or did you assemble it?

[foggy crescent]

im not on grandpa understanding level by no means, i actually know how to mod games and modify files, but i dont even know what program i would need to reformat the entirety of windows

also sounds like it would birth many problems.

[foggy crescent]

and i know what bloatware is, but how is he assuming i have a lot of bloatware on my PC based on what i said?

[teal fractal]

Just look up on how to reset windows

[foggy crescent]

my uncle and I assembled it, he works in computer repair.

[kindred sail]

cause 90% of the people do have bloatware

[teal fractal]

Because you mentioned using bloatware anti virus apps

And youre using windows

[kindred sail]

pretty much all free antivirus are garbage, very few are exceptions

[foggy crescent]

i am definetly NOT resetting windows by myself, that sounds like an easy way to f up the many important things i have on this PC.

[kindred sail]

I consider RGB software to be bloatware

[foggy crescent]

ESEt is literally like, a 250 dollar premium antivirus, its considered one of the best

[kindred sail]

I don't mean the antivirus, you mentioned having a lot of things in task tray 🙂

so my wild guess is there is something among those programs interfering with the EAAC

[teal fractal]

Yeah and its extremely unnecessary lol

[kindred sail]

I'm not trying to be mean in any way, but I come from a time where removing programs from startup was pretty much mandatory otherwise the PC used to be slow

[foggy crescent]

alright so news flash

i literally JUST deleted all of the antivirus files from the bf5 folder

tried launching the game and NOTHING changed

[kindred sail]

lol

[foggy crescent]

no error message

no nothing

[teal fractal]

Windows antivirus has same detection rates btw

[kindred sail]

why were bf files in the antivirus?

250 premium is insane

I got bitdefender total security for 60 a year

[teal fractal]

Because false detections

[kindred sail]

lol

[foggy crescent]

the game starts running on steam, hands the process to EA, ea starts running the game on steam, it runs for a few seconds (without opening anything, it just says its running) and then it disappears and its a green FUCKEN PLAY ICON AGAIN

[teal fractal]

Garbage apps do that

[foggy crescent]

they werent thats what i said

eset doesent seem to be interfering with anything.

[kindred sail]

ah ok

good waht else is open 🙂

[foggy crescent]

one time purchase.

[teal fractal]

Just close everything down

[kindred sail]

ok

[foggy crescent]

guys. Did you hear what i just said.

[foggy crescent]

.

and

[foggy crescent]

.

nothing changed

[teal fractal]

Wdym anti virus files from bf5 folder

[kindred sail]

yeah then ESET isn't the one, what else is open in task tray?

[teal fractal]

Why did you have anti virus files in there in the first place

[solid glen]

I'm hoping we get AUG (variants) and the AWM/AWS in the next BF

[foggy crescent]

clearly its not related to the anticheat cuz at this point when i click play it would say "woohoo cowboy you dont have your newest anticheat plz install it plz"

i meant to say anticheat

fml

my head is hurting from all of this and imalso steaming mad forgive me

[teal fractal]

Set your pc to balanced powermode if it isnt already

[foggy crescent]

i just cant believe all of this, how can it possibly be this fucking shit

[foggy crescent]

thanks, now you are just trolling

[teal fractal]

No

[foggy crescent]

thats exactly what i need

[kindred sail]

again send me a screenshot per DM with the task tray stuff

[teal fractal]

Im not

It worked for quite a few people

It was a post on reddit

I can also post people saying it worked if you really need to

[foggy crescent]

i will if you can explain how it could possibly be related to anticheat

[kindred sail]

https://help.ea.com/en/help/pc/ea-anticheat/ try updating the EAAC

[foggy crescent]

after i DELETED ALL OF THE ANTICHEAT FILES, and it DID NOT CARE it just wont launch at all dude

i tried repairing, reinstalling, doing everything with the anticheat

[kindred sail]

ok well then again it's some program that you have installed which EAAC doesn't like so it won't boot the game

[teal fractal]

.

[kindred sail]

really there is a guy with this issue like every week

[teal fractal]

Through widnows not through bios

[kindred sail]

helped around 10 so far

[kindred sail]

XD

[foggy crescent]

except when a guy looks through literally half of the threads regarding this shit he is bound to find a fix

and i am not, the game just seems permanently and absolutely fucked

and i cant even get a refund.

I paid full price for this shit btw.

Like all the way back.

[foggy crescent]

i edited the powerplan, nothing changed.

[tropic folio]

how many hours have you played it

[foggy crescent]

I dont see how this is relevant?

[tropic folio]

it's relevant because if you've got 300 hours on it you more than got your money's worth, and it's not worth crying about how much money you spent 7 years ago or whatever

[foggy crescent]

dude

you guys just arent listening are you

[kindred sail]

also it's relevant cause if you played it before you have to start thinking what has changed since the last time you played

[tropic folio]

ideally the game should work but at the end of the day "i paid full price for this" usually means more when the game just came out and you've hardly played it

[foggy crescent]

there is no crash

no freeze

no anticheat window popup

no nothing

[kindred sail]

we get it

[teal fractal]

I am i just sent it to show that i wasnt bullshitting you lol

[foggy crescent]

please PLEASE read this again

this is the most infuriating part

[teal fractal]

No anticheat window?

[foggy crescent]

like, if there was an error code i would have somethign to work off of

and no it doesent even create crash files in the documents or any other directory.

so i have literally NOTHING to work off of

[teal fractal]

Then your anticheat is the problem because the game wont start without anticheat

[tropic folio]

you've reinstalled the game?

[kindred sail]

not really, all of the guys I helped had the splash screen and then nothing

[teal fractal]

Yes

[tropic folio]

just checking

[foggy crescent]

i dont have a splash screen dude

[teal fractal]

Well hes not having the splash screen

So theres an issue with ea anti heat

[foggy crescent]

i click play on steam, ea starts prepping the game, the game says running for a few secs, then it simply DOESENT.

nothing more.

[teal fractal]

Which is weird since he reinstalled it entirely

[kindred sail]

do you have a spare SSD?

[foggy crescent]

nope.

what were you going to say?

I can borrow one at best

i wouldnt even care about my game progress being lost i just want to hop in and play

its INSANE there isnt like, a hard reset you can do

that is the bottom line for games, clearly some shit is just permafucked and it cant unfuck itself.

[teal fractal]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Madden/s/nGNN3RHn71

[kindred sail]

remove the current SSD and disconnect all other drives, install windows on the spare or borrowed one with drivers only in offline mode, then update windows and install steam, ea app and bf, should work

[foggy crescent]

no matter how many repairs, uninstalls, regedit reroutes, anticheat bs i do.

[foggy crescent]

irrelevant

again that is not my error code, i dont HAVE an error.

[kindred sail]

can you disable the antivirus and try starting the game then?

[teal fractal]

Look at the comment i sent

He had issues with anti virus apps

[foggy crescent]

you think that wasnt the first thing i tried to do?

i disabled it while installing and launching too.

[teal fractal]

He disabled them all then reinstalled and deleted certain files and then the game worked

And then the ones down below aswell

[foggy crescent]

you are telling me to disassemble my entire PC and spend a WHOLE DAY copying and uninstalling stuff so i can play bf5?

[teal fractal]

Theres people mentioning fresh windows installs working aswell

[foggy crescent]

is that really where we are at?

[tropic folio]

i mean if you've tried everything else... it's really about how much you want to play it

[kindred sail]

I know it's not the most convenient option but what else can I suggest?

[tropic folio]

last resort for any problem is a fresh install

[teal fractal]

Lol no thats not necessary probably

[foggy crescent]

im down to try anything that wont compromise or fuck anything ELSE further

[teal fractal]

Its a software issue 100% especially since you dont get ea anticheat splash screen

Your game is probably fine

Just an issue with eaanti cheat

[foggy crescent]

as i said i got lots of important stuff on this PC, im not qualified to fiddle this much with my PC, im not disassembling physically my entire fucking PC or wiping my windows clean or repackaging shit, no, that sounds like it will fuck my shit up and im not down for that

[teal fractal]

Safest bet is to just reset windows meaning youll delete everything on your pc and factory reset windows settings

[kindred sail]

in that case I hope you made backups of those

[foggy crescent]

so you are saying because i DONT get an ea anticheat splash screen, its SURELY ea anticheat that is the problem??

[teal fractal]

Likely yes

Its not normal behaviour

You dont get to play the game if eaanti cheat wont work

[foggy crescent]

can someone a like, actually back up these claims and explain how that makes sense?

because i dont see it.

i dont get an error message or the ea app saying "hey you dont have the anticheat we fail to launch"

[teal fractal]

what solved it for me is going into program files, EA, AC and deleting the 3 anti cheat things and then when you re open the game it works

[foggy crescent]

so it must be the anticheat??

[teal fractal]

I have the same problem and i tried everything but it doesn’t but i found the solution , open battlefield file and delete eaantie cheat launcher and everything about eaaanite cheat ( BUT KEEP JUST THE FILE EAAntiCheat)

[foggy crescent]

now you are just copying what others are saying from posts IVE ALREADY READ DUDE

i literally told you guys like, 10 minutes ago that i deleted EVERYTHING ea anticheat RELATED

[teal fractal]

Its the only thing that within literal sense doesnt seem to be working

So start with that

[foggy crescent]

and it didnt care AT ALL still no errors no nothing

in fact fuck it ill just delete half of the game files, see if it gives me an error message then.

[teal fractal]

Making sure

[teal fractal]

Okay and you reinstalled them and kept 1 certain file and deleted the 3 other files like the comments mentioned?

[kindred sail]

did you exclude bf from the antivirus scan?

[foggy crescent]

yeah i did, and then i also tried just deleteing everything related and it didnt care.

anyway after randomly deleting half of the files in the first folder i finally got an error message yippee

"Couldnt launch battlefield 5 definitive edition."

"An incompatible version of the game is installed on your device."

[kindred sail]

do you have bf 1 or 2042 by any chance?

[foggy crescent]

"uninstall the steam version to launch."

[foggy crescent]

i do have bf1

[teal fractal]

Youre on windows 10?

[kindred sail]

can you start that one?

[foggy crescent]

not installed

also i modded it and i remember it breaking similarly after the anticheat update, except it did give me error messages

[teal fractal]

Ye you could test and see if that opens and works fine because if its an anti cheat issue it wont open either of those games

[foggy crescent]

i just couldnt be bothered because it was also complicated (not to this degree)

[kindred sail]

since BF 1 got EAAC mods won't work anymore

[foggy crescent]

oh yeah really?

Never ever?

[teal fractal]

Tes

[kindred sail]

nope

[foggy crescent]

Thats super fucking great.

[teal fractal]

Yes

I just told you that few mins ago

[foggy crescent]

I at least thought its a temporary thing, they just dont care though huh

[teal fractal]

.

[foggy crescent]

"fuck you here is your vanilla game, no more immersive viewmodel FOV for you"

[teal fractal]

Theres fov mods that count as cheating

Theres a ton of mods that are cheats

It only makes sense to not allow modding

[foggy crescent]

it only makes sense to do the most cost efficient and easy solution and not care about your playerbase, and just implement this umbrella solution without actual thought or filtering

now that makes sense for EA

after not caring about the cheating issue for a decade, good job truly good

[teal fractal]

Atleast its a thing now

[foggy crescent]

and while ripping that away from the community, why not make the game unplayable for half the playerbase, permafucked for some of them, like me

[foggy crescent]

I am so fucking happy can you tell?

At this point its not even about battlefield 5 its an issue i cant resolve that has no pattern or motive that infuriates me

[teal fractal]

Its a small % of players not half

[foggy crescent]

im ready to take this up with customer support and scream at some poor joe about how fucked this is.

[kindred sail]

good luck with that

[teal fractal]

Lol

[kindred sail]

have you tried a safe boot btw?

[foggy crescent]

@kindred sail what was your "ultimate solution, this works 100%" thing? Reformat what?

[foggy crescent]

steam safe boot or windows safe boot?

[teal fractal]

Windows

[tropic folio]

people were modding battlefield?

how was that ever a good idea

[teal fractal]

Ye

[foggy crescent]

man i gotta go i fucking cant dude this raised my blood pressure.

[kindred sail]

windows safe boot

[teal fractal]

There were pretty absurd mods lol

Green toy soldiers mod for bf1 doesnt make you appear a cheater but gives you a pretty obvious edge

Fov mods that give you insane angles that allow better headglitching and insanely reduce visual recoil

[kindred sail]

well first backup whatever you have important, that is the frist step

second step is either wiping your current OS drive, or you borrow an SSD and do a clean install there

[teal fractal]

Then map mods that give you daytime setting on night maps

[kindred sail]

wasn't that in bf V?

[teal fractal]

Bf1 aswell

Bf5 i remember you could make all of your textures look invisible and super smoothened out
