battlefield-legacy-titles

[soft storm]

cyberpunk, watch dogs legion, black ops cold war

heres hoping bf2042 doesnt

[gray glade]

you on pc? @marsh lotus

[warped ferry]

if you get 2042 from him it will also suck

[marsh lotus]

Indeed I am, Khorney

[soft storm]

yea

def a pattern

[gray glade]

i'd reinstall, unless your connection is poop

[marsh lotus]

I've already done that

And repaired files

[warped ferry]

anyway im not expecting anything that special from the gameplay release

bf5s graphics looked good at the trailer but shitty in the actual game

[gray glade]

a google search shows some people waited and it solved itself after a few days

but dunno

[warped ferry]

anyway guys im off for today gotta sleep

[ornate swallow]

hope the visibility is improved in 2042

[wind goblet]

Battlefield 2042 is the game you get if battlefield 4 and just cause 4 had a child

[soft storm]

i hope they just copy bf4 and bring hack doritos

[lost knoll]

It looks like bf4 2.0 with better graphics

[soft storm]

i dont mind shooting at doritos after the shit show that was bfv's visibility

[verbal copper]

this

[crimson tinsel]

Gameplay Sunday ^^

[ornate swallow]

u guys think 3d spotting will return?

[ornate swallow]

yes

[jade lintel]

ye

And spotting

[soft storm]

3d spotting for sure will return

[wind goblet]

What can’t see the enemy?

Need a whole red outline to help you?

[soft storm]

nah just doritos

[ornate swallow]

1 thing i dont want back is BF4 and BF1 suppresion

[wind goblet]

Bf1 had suppression?

[ornate swallow]

yes

[rugged moat]

if i preorder the game the day before the beta comes out do i get the beta?

[soft storm]

yes

[jade lintel]

no, it was more like
"Can't see the enemy? well too bad, you're dead by the time you do."

[soft storm]

thats how it always worked

[jade lintel]

i think so.

[soft storm]

the recon specialist will have a drone thatll likely be like the spotting scope from bf1 and bfv

[rugged moat]

answering my question?

[ornate swallow]

i mean if u pre order ur gonna get the beta early anyways

[soft storm]

@rugged moatyou can preorder and get access likely, yes

thats how it worked in the past

[wind goblet]

Well bf1 didn’t have a spotting scope

[rugged moat]

ok thx alot

[soft storm]

yes it did..?

[wind goblet]

They had a spotting periscope that spotted a lot better

[soft storm]

thats what i said?

[wind goblet]

Two lens

[ornate swallow]

anyone knows what crossgen is? im still confused as to what it is

[jade lintel]

spotting scope in BF5 is useless

[soft storm]

ok ackshually

[wind goblet]

The bfV scope is one scope

Well actuwhjfiy

[robust mango]

means it will be on old and new gen consoles

[soft storm]

ackshually

@ornate swallowold and new

[ornate swallow]

OH

[soft storm]

you can get the game on ps4 and then get it on ps5 and have all your unlocks

[wind goblet]

They better add dope ass Easter eggs

[ornate swallow]

oh sweet

[soft storm]

but you have to buy the gold edition or better

[robust mango]

if the spotting is anything like BF4 im going to be pissed. imagine 64 doritos on your screen that you can see through smoke

[soft storm]

so shill out 20 bucks

[ornate swallow]

but what edition of 2042 does that tho?

[soft storm]

gold or above

[ornate swallow]

oh gold?

[wind goblet]

On god?

One grenade can get 6 kills now?

[ornate swallow]

im already planning to get gold edition so worth it

[wind goblet]

Sounds like checkpoint hell

[jade lintel]

Oh yeah smoke should block spotting and cancel any active spots when you go through it

[wind goblet]

People always say bigger map means more players

I don’t think that is correct

[robust mango]

you shouldnt even still see someone if smoke is blocking your vision

[soft storm]

i think capture sectors might fix that

[wind goblet]

In most big maps people will still gyrate to one area

[errant iron]

i hope battlefield is gonna be 1#

[wind goblet]

Perhaps it is a close quarters area making fighting easier for people who can’t aim

[errant iron]

#1

[soft storm]

yeah they want to get rid of zergs, now you gotta zerg 2 or more points

[warped ferry]

I'm rather curious how long it will take for the first hacks to be released

[soft storm]

week 1

[jade lintel]

yeah, it should be as thick as possible.

[robust mango]

exactly

[warped ferry]

I'm saying 4 days

[robust mango]

i give it 2 weeks

[wind goblet]

But it’s gonna end up being a 64 player assault fight and if you try to explore the rest of the map you get sniped

[soft storm]

depends on how they balance snipers

[robust mango]

the first early access week will have no hackers

[wind goblet]

You can’t balance snipers

[warped ferry]

In the worst case it ends like on cod WW2 where even the beta had hacks available

[robust mango]

oh yeah i remember that

that was kinda funny tho

[wind goblet]

No one likes to die from someone 3 miles away that you can’t fight against

[soft storm]

you know whats funny

i played cod ww2 for 500 hours

never met a hacker

[robust mango]

did you play on PC

[soft storm]

yea

[robust mango]

oh wow you got lucky

[soft storm]

i have it on steam

[warped ferry]

And since neither EA or DICE are capable of producing a proper ANTICHEAT

[robust mango]

i mean there wasnt a million hackers

but i ran into a few

[wind goblet]

Map design will inevitably have a open area

And open areas a snipers paradise

[robust mango]

CoD WW2 is under appreciated

[warped ferry]

I've played the beta for 2 hours... Only rage hackers

[soft storm]

dude they cant even stop cheaters in official apex tournements

[robust mango]

it just took about 1 year to get off the ground

[jade lintel]

Maybe cuz WW2 wasn't as popular on PC?

[warped ferry]

WW2 was shit

[soft storm]

it wasnt lol

[ruby wharf]

I found someone playing the technical playtest lol

[jade lintel]

nah, it's pretty bad.

[warped ferry]

Shotguns with incendiary ammo like the Fck

[soft storm]

loot boxes with paid weapons

fucking classes that offered weapons and ablities

and shitty comp design

nerfed and buffed the fg42 ever month

[warped ferry]

A typical cod

[soft storm]

cause pros said it was too good/too bad

[wind goblet]

Dragon rounds sounds like cancer

[soft storm]

eh

[warped ferry]

Yup

[soft storm]

with gung ho yes

[warped ferry]

One shot near you and you died

Not even direct hitting was needed

[soft storm]

the issue wasnt instant kill the issue was it killed you even if you killed the other guy

[warped ferry]

Also that thing bad more range than a flamethrower

[soft storm]

cause itd take 80% of your health off and then burn you for the other 20

[wind goblet]

Incendiary rounds should only be effective against aircraft

It doesn’t make sense balance wise to use it on infantry

[warped ferry]

It's COD

[soft storm]

nothing made sense balance wise in cod ww2

[warped ferry]

They never make anything logical

[soft storm]

theres a reason activision hasnt let them publish a game in 4 years

[wind goblet]

I wonder what the meta gun will be

In BF1 it was the hellregial in BFV it was the STG and sten

[soft storm]

the AR gun most likely

[warped ferry]

In 2042?

[wind goblet]

Yeah

[soft storm]

high fire rate low recoil

[warped ferry]

Probably some broken as hell assault rifle that gets "fixed" like 10 times

[wind goblet]

And it’s going to be used by 54 out of the 64 players

[ornate swallow]

yo guys u know the part when the somdier pulls oit of their jet and rocket an enemy jet?

[warped ferry]

63/64

[wind goblet]

That’s the battlefield 4 moment

That’s it’s official name

[ornate swallow]

is it me or does the rocket launcher look familiar?

[warped ferry]

It doesn't work for me

[soft storm]

dice be like "this gun has a fire rate of 900 rpm, little recoil, a fast ttk, but the balance is that the gun takes .2 seconds longer to reload than others in its class"

[warped ferry]

My rockets always bug before hitting

[gray glade]

yeah they gotta stay ontop with the meta guns now, considering bf2042 guns arent locked to classes anymore

[soft storm]

they arent gonna be able to

[wind goblet]

Medic self healing while using meta guns

[warped ferry]

I'm already seeing sniper engineers and such bullshit

[ornate swallow]

i swear ot looks like that one OP rocket launcher from bad company 2

[merry mirage]

Yo I have a qestion. If I'll preorder ultimate edition, I'll get artbook and sound track on my pc?

[wind goblet]

Fuck is a sniper engineer?

[gray glade]

we might see more of the same guns than we did before

[soft storm]

literally everyone gonna pick the specialist that has heals with an assault rifle/smg

[wind goblet]

Build your own tower or something?

[soft storm]

@merry mirageyes

[merry mirage]

k ty

[warped ferry]

Yup

[little stump]

or is invisible

[soft storm]

if they add a specialist with active camo

i swear to god

[wind goblet]

My specialist better be wearing heelies or I’m not preordering

[warped ferry]

Stuff like this already makes me hate that thing

[soft storm]

a specialist with a wingsuit is already nuts

[solar cobalt]

Yeeeeees

[warped ferry]

Sure what's next

[solar cobalt]

Flanking will be better

[soft storm]

thats actually confirmed btw

[warped ferry]

Tactical nuke with dead man switch ?

Or a camper specialist that can call in airstrikes 24/7

[wind goblet]

Crash a space station into the map

[soft storm]

so we have a specialist with a grappling hook, one with a defibs and doc stim gun, one with a 20mm auto sentry, one with a UAV and one with a wingsuit

[ripe compass]

yes

[little stump]

wingsuit guy will be probably the fastest running "lightweight" guy so tryhards will run him 24h

[wind goblet]

Wait grappling hook?

[warped ferry]

Alright fuck this I'm not buying this game

[solar cobalt]

IWOWOOWLDNDO

[wind goblet]

Alright so there is a grappling hook and a wing suit in the game?

[soft storm]

yes the first on e has a grappling hook

[wind goblet]

Are you sure they didn’t just make Rico Rodriguez?

[solid hinge]

let's hope they don't differ in running speeds

[wind goblet]

Actually just cause 4

[barren crown]

BF4 is 5 bucks in ps store, worth it?

[soft storm]

considering the fact dice stockholm is across the street from the devs of jsut cause

[wind goblet]

Tornado and a guy with a grapple and wing suit

[soft storm]

maybe

[warped ferry]

I'm 100000 % not gonna buy that game with this level of bullshit included this is getting beyond ridiculous

[soft storm]

128 players btw

[pastel storm]

Kappa

[warped ferry]

Even worse

[soft storm]

also, levolution and weather

[jade lintel]

Hell yes.

[warped ferry]

128 specialists on one Map fuck no

[wide flare]

YES!

[soft storm]

mfw the tornado comes onto the map and it crashes the server

[solid hinge]

then don't

[soft storm]

[barren crown]

Nice😁

[tawny river]

hope cheating gets some fixing

[warped ferry]

Forget it

[solid hinge]

yep

[tawny river]

or im changing to console

[wind goblet]

Mfw tornado steals my robo dog ☹️

[warped ferry]

They won't get it fixed

They didn't manage to do this in 6+ years so why should it work now

[tawny river]

is it possible to connect mouse and keyboard to a playstation?

[soft storm]

dice isnt gonne be able to balance vehicles, specialists, guns, and maps all at the same time

[warped ferry]

Yes

[soft storm]

yes

[wind goblet]

They better have some dope ass movement

We had rolling and climbing in BFV

[soft storm]

btw the grappling hook apparently works like pathfinder from apex

[pulsar valve]

!when

[stoic ingot]

Battlefield 2042 Reveal Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASzOzrB-a9E
Gameplay World Premiere time is an estimate.

[wind goblet]

Sounds dumb

[soft storm]

he can swing around corners

[barren crown]

I have seen some games support it, but idk if every game does

But possible yes

[warped ferry]

And they better equalize that fking specialist bs with something more reasonable

[wind goblet]

Welcome to titanfsll without the Titans lads

[little stump]

actually limiting guns would be the best (and fastest) way to balance specialists

[soft storm]

yeah

[tawny river]

i saw there is a gillie suit skin, thats cool

[wind goblet]

NO

I FUCKING HATE GILLIE SUITS

[warped ferry]

128 of those specialists on one Map is gonna be more cancerous than MW2 at its peak

[soft storm]

letting every specialist have any gun is gonna be horrible for balance

FULL SQUAD OF GRAPPLE BOIS

[barren crown]

Yep..

Everyone will look the same

[wind goblet]

Best balance for a grapple is that they only get a pistol and a melee weapon

You can already fly so go ahead and drop kick someone

[soft storm]

nah, just needs to be animations that make it so you cant grapple and shoot a dude midair/while landing

apex it works cause its a movement shooter

[warped ferry]

To sum it up :
128 specialists in a map
No class limitations
Air droppable vehicles
"Cosmetic Specialists coming"
What in the actual fuck went wrong this sounds like COD MW V2.00

[wind goblet]

uses the grapple to camp above a doorway

[soft storm]

money happened

[solid hinge]

game prolly gon take 100/120 gb max on release

[barren crown]

Ikr

[soft storm]

theyre appealing to cod and apex and fortnite guys because battlefield guys dont buy this shit

[wind goblet]

Once again I bet they promised too much stuff that they won’t deliver

[warped ferry]

If the Gameplay confirms this I'm really hoping it dies quickly

[barren crown]

Same

[soft storm]

the trailer literally has a rendazook

you know for a fact

the gameplay is gonna be wacky

[warped ferry]

cough BF 5 Berlin, Moscow, Normandy cough

[ember comet]

Does anyone know if crossplay will go? Between PC, Ps5 and Xbox?

[soft storm]

@ember cometno confirmation

or denial from ea on it

[wind goblet]

Bro they promised I would get to drag people

[wary hedge]

cmon its great! will be a remastered modern bf4, is far from being a cod royale game

[little stump]

they just looked at earnings from COD MW/Warzone
looked at earnings from BFV
looked at COD
looked at BFV

yeaaaaah

[soft storm]

bro they promised vehicle customization

[wind goblet]

I still can’t drag people

[warped ferry]

Or crash landable planes. Neither happened

[soft storm]

i waited a year and half for tank customization and got "coming soon tank"

[barren crown]

Money talks, especially with the EA bosses

[wind goblet]

What the hell is a crash landable plane?

[barren crown]

Look at Fifa, thats the biggest money grab ever

[wind goblet]

Either you land or you don’t

And if you don’t you explode

[soft storm]

"we want to make a new battlefield"
"ok, but add in skins, dabbing, epic explosions and at least 100 players in a match"

if there are emotes its over

[barren crown]

Lol

BF emotes 🤣

[soft storm]

dont laugh

[tranquil jackal]

Don't

[gritty wigeon]

https://tenor.com/view/reviewbrah-thereportoftheweek-disappointment-my-disappointment-is-immeasurable-gif-18455302

[soft storm]

they already confirmed they changed stabbing animations

[warped ferry]

If it's shit it will regulate itself quite quickly

[tranquil jackal]

It'll only make it come true

[soft storm]

to be third person

[barren crown]

Ouch

Like cod

[tranquil jackal]

They fucking what

[soft storm]

yep

jack said they changed stab animations to be third person

[barren crown]

And no SP either..

[soft storm]

you know theyre gonna sell melee takedowns

[tranquil jackal]

1st person stabbing animations was so cool

[soft storm]

yeah those are gone

[barren crown]

Yes

[tranquil jackal]

Oh god...

[soft storm]

mfw ea sells me a melee takedown of me teabagging a dude after a kill

[barren crown]

Lmaooo

[tranquil jackal]

Tbh the more I hear the less excited it gets

[barren crown]

Same

[soft storm]

im waiting for the gameplay reveal

but from what ive heard

skins and micro transactions are likely the focus

and gameplay was built around how to sell shit

[tranquil jackal]

Fucking no SP, no classes, 3rd person shit,

[warped ferry]

I'm at the point where I'm seriously thinking about if I should even spent the time and watch the gameplay launch

[soft storm]

gameplay reveal will likely be like

5 minutes long

[finite gull]

I don’t know why a lack of campaign is so serious all of a sudden

[soft storm]

its a 60 dollar game thats mp only

[tranquil jackal]

no shill

[barren crown]

^

[tranquil jackal]

it's 60 bucks

[soft storm]

reminder last time dice did that it didnt go so well

[solar apex]

question

[soft storm]

SWBF1

[warped ferry]

I ain't paying 60 for this

[dense grove]

ok i just saw it

[solid hinge]

do you expect DICE to change their mind regarding the specialists cuz the idea of no useful classes is really inconsistent

[dense grove]

soo can someone make a recap of the disscusion here?

[soft storm]

no i dont

[tranquil jackal]

If it is MP only then what about when the servers die out? It better be some really good multiplayer then

[soft storm]

i dont think dice will change a thing

theyve shown they dont trust our opinions

[solar apex]

is bf hardline still populated in 2021 on pc?

eu

[soft storm]

no

[solid hinge]

I have a question

[sweet plume]

Maybe they are going to put a limit for how many specialist there can be?

[soft storm]

LOL

[warped ferry]

Simple solution: Expect the Reveal to be absolute Shit. It can only get better

[tranquil jackal]

BF4 BF1 are the only really populated games so far

[soft storm]

IMAGINE WANTING TO BE THE ENGINEER BUT YOUR SQUADMATE TOOK IT

[barren crown]

Yes

[dense grove]

BFV also

[warped ferry]

No everyone is a specialist then. The chaos must be perfect

[solid hinge]

will bf6 and bf 2042 be the same game or different games?

[solar apex]

also bf5 i think

[soft storm]

bf6 is bf2042

[tranquil jackal]

Yeah but then again, that was a fucking mess

[warped ferry]

Bf6 = 2042

[solid hinge]

besides that will the system requirements be revealed along the gameplay trailer?

[solid hinge]

Oh alr thank you

[solar apex]

well not gonna buy it then rip

[tranquil jackal]

and bfV has been collectively shit upon

[barren crown]

BF5 is pretty active both PS and PC

[opaque anvil]

i bought the standard edition of the game but now i want the ultimate edition how can i upgrade my package?

[dense grove]

yes but i only join custom hardcore servers

[soft storm]

@opaque anvilno way to

[sweet plume]

In that case every match will be THE ENTIRE CIRCUS

[soft storm]

you can probably refund it

[dense grove]

just to max out my guns and than quit

[soft storm]

contact ea support

or steam support

[terse swift]

Just hoping there is a ton of customisation for weapons

[barren crown]

Probably wont be

[solid hinge]

bf4 and bf3 best battlefields

[tranquil jackal]

I am just hoping it won't be a total letdown but at this point I've only hated each thing that I hear aside from the trailer

[terse swift]

Because im mainly an infantry but vehicles look really mind blowing and would wanna try it out.

[tulip badge]

I was curious as to what they will be.
PS4 and Xbox One have seperate lobbies/servers so the game is designed for PS5 and Xbox Series X in mind.
As a result, the system requirements will probably be higher.

[soft storm]

the trailer wasnt shit

it was the info reveal

that i didnt like

specialists just sound horrible

[tranquil jackal]

Let's be honest here, everything we've read and heard aside from the trailer has been slowly dissapointing

[warped ferry]

I'm not expecting anything less than a absolute Chaos. Letting just a few ppl play specialists will get it all un-balanced so they will let everyone play as specialist

[solid hinge]

I can agree with that

[barren crown]

Agreed, trailer was pretty good compared to like BFV

[soft storm]

specialists work for smaller modes

[terse swift]

@barren crown it's a necessity for dice to add attachments for weapons so im pretty confident there will be several options for weapon customisability.

[soft storm]

like a 5v5 6v6

[tranquil jackal]

The info is really damn dissapointing yeah

[soft storm]

not 128 players

plus they announced theres 10 specialists on launch, plus 4 more in year 1?

[warped ferry]

Yup. Pretty much. I wasn't hyped before the trailer and I'm even less interested in it after

[soft storm]

thats 14 by year 2

[tulip badge]

Apex may give an idea on how it works...it's not too bad

[warped ferry]

4 of 14 are paid

[solid hinge]

my guess is 4 core 8 threaded CPU will be not enough to run at stable 60 FPS

[warped ferry]

Nice ratio

[soft storm]

apex only has squads of 3 and theres only 57 other people in a game

[tranquil jackal]

Yeah but like for the couple of weapons you use you get a couple of different attachments, Muh customizability

[terse swift]

Now we all wait for the gameplay reveal this Sunday. Maybe more factors to the game that will amaze people.

[soft storm]

plus all legends are easily identifable

[tranquil jackal]

Don't fucking get any hope for "Then don't buy the game" EA

[soft storm]

and it has a slow enough ttk where you can back off and decide waht you want to do

[terse swift]

Really hope they dont screw up because they are at a strong position in the gaming industry.

[solid hinge]

bf 2042 kinda reminds me when 2142 dropped :/

[junior depot]

wtf there are people in here already playing battlefield 2042

[warped ferry]

I'm expecting it to be shit. If it's better than it's ok if not I didn't spent money on it

[tulip badge]

True...Apex just kinda gives an idea on how it should be possible.
I'm guessing that the specialists won't have any crazy abilities or anything. Just balanced good stuff

[solid hinge]

If its good like bf3 and bf4 then idk

Ive heard ppl saying the robot dog is too futuristic and the trailer is trash :/ like bruh

[soft storm]

@tulip badgeone literally has a 20mm auto sentry

and another has a wingsuit

[terse swift]

@tranquil jackal that was a really bad statement from ea lol. I think they learnt from their mistakes.

[tulip badge]

oh

[solid hinge]

Ofc its gonna be futuristic its on the year 2042

[tranquil jackal]

A fucking annoying ass drone totally isn't irritating on 64v64

[warped ferry]

Expect a circus with this kind of bs

[tulip badge]

nevermind

[soft storm]

literally theyre going apex legends route for specialists

[barren crown]

They copied the cod scorestreak but without the score requirement

[vapid lava]

Can someone explain to me how the butterfly bombs on the BF109-G6 plane from bfv work? Are they delayed explosives or some sort of mines that enemy vehicles/infantry has to walk over?

[tranquil jackal]

Trailer wasn't anything special

[terse swift]

@warped ferry what was your favourite bf then?

[soft storm]

@vapid lavathey fall to the ground, then plant and when someone approaches, explodes

[junior depot]

2042

[warped ferry]

Bf1

[tranquil jackal]

In real life they were ,mines

[solid hinge]

2042 hasn’t even came out

[tranquil jackal]

Correction they were mines @vapid lava

[tulip badge]

That's literally what I have haha (Ryzen 5 1500x)
Maybe it's time for an upgrade...

[warped ferry]

1 was and still is the gold standard for me. 4 is quite good too but buggy and has hired issues

[solid hinge]

bf3

Tho

It hits diff

[terse swift]

@warped ferry bf1 was true breathtaking experience. Still remember getting it on 48 hours on release day through prime on xbox 😂

[soft storm]

im not at all excited for specialists, every game that has them does a piss poor job at balancing them, and dice wont be able to balance them in a match of 128 players

[tranquil jackal]

4 has issues but is good, bf1 was great bfv was dogshit

[barren crown]

Who would want to buy the ultimate edition tho? 30$ extra for some cosmetic

[soft storm]

if specialists were cosmetic only

[silk pier]

Yo

[soft storm]

would be totally fine

[tranquil jackal]

Ah you underestimate the EA shill

[barren crown]

Yes

[vapid lava]

Thank you

[tulip badge]

I'm just hoping that the specialists are not as powerful as they appear in game

[soft storm]

they are gonna be powerful i bet

[solid hinge]

Who things bf1 is better then bfv

[silk pier]

Guys

[tranquil jackal]

Specialists are just some type of doped up class system that probably will be rather dogshit

[soft storm]

if the engineers sentry can engage vehicles its gonna be chaos

[silk pier]

Is it true theres no campaign?

[tranquil jackal]

Everyone

[tranquil jackal]

True

[tulip badge]

Correct

[tranquil jackal]

No campaign

[soft storm]

@silk piernone

[finite gull]

TBh if I was planning on Getting a series X while I currently owned an xbox one but I didn’t want to spend more money the ultimate edition would be the best bet. But even then you should just buy the gold edition

[silk pier]

@tranquil jackal wtf why???

Campaign is the best part

[latent moat]

Will we be able to have custom games with AI only for testing purposes?

Will be able to "switch bodies" and assume control of AI players?

Can we set AI to static where it just stays still? Can we set them to crouch or prone?

Will there be a Practice/Test Range Day 1 on release?

[soft storm]

focus on live service

[tranquil jackal]

Yeah so far it's pretty dissapointing

[soft storm]

campaign cant be live serviced

[burnt quarry]

🤥

[solid hinge]

I own the ps5 and the ps4 its best if i get the ps4 edition

[tulip badge]

To be fair, we haven't even seen the gameplay trailer...I'm sure it'll be just fine

[soft storm]

@latent moattheres bot games

[finite gull]

Buy the PS5 version if you want more action

[soft storm]

you can also invite friends to play the bot matches with you

[junior depot]

there better be real tornadoes in 2042 and not just trailer hype shit

[finite gull]

If you own a PS5 it would be pointless to buy the PS4 version

[barren crown]

If you dont have any friends then?😅

[tranquil jackal]

you will get more for ps5

[soft storm]

yeah the tornados are real they just crash your game when they spawn

[tulip badge]

Definitely get the PS5 version :D

[tranquil jackal]

But remember kiddo's, don't fucking preorder

[solid hinge]

bruuh the standard version doesn't offer cross gen upgrade

[sweet plume]

🤡

[tranquil jackal]

Wait what?

Explain

[soft storm]

yeah gotta cough up 20 extra

[barren crown]

Wait so if you buy standard you cant play on a PS5?

[tulip badge]

...but...I cannot resist...

[solid hinge]

w8 i ahve to look at the graph once again

[latent moat]

Thanks! Can I set bots to do certain things though is real question. Can I have them stand still or crouch or get in a vehicle? For proper bug testing and to be able to get and provide community with vehicle damage stats I need that ability

[solid hinge]

Alright fine

[soft storm]

@latent moatno idea, jack only confirmed there are bot matches and bots in live multiplayer

[tulip badge]

Example: If you get the PS4 standard edition, you can't upgrade to the PS5 version

[soft storm]

gold and ultimate edition have cross gen support

[tranquil jackal]

Ahh I see, I thought it meant you couldn't play cross platform

[warped ferry]

Pay more to play on a newer console nice

[tranquil jackal]

Still dogshit though

[soft storm]

if you buy the gold version of ps4 you can get the next gen version for free and bring over all your progress

[barren crown]

Oh

[warped ferry]

Fuck EA srsly

[soft storm]

@tranquil jackalthere is no cross platform support confirmed yet

[tulip badge]

I think the last gen cannot play with the new gen because old gen have 64 player lobbies while new gen + pc have 128 player lobbies

[tranquil jackal]

Yeah something with "We have no announcements to make" about cross platform doesn't sound hopeful

[solid hinge]

yes you have to purchase either gold or ultimate edition to own cross-gen bundle

[soft storm]

last gen cant play with next gen or pc because last gen is 64 players only and smaller maps

[wide basin]

Yeah thats what was said

[tulip badge]

Yep

[marsh wedge]

so, I will need to buy the game again if I buy the version for ps4 if I want it for ps5?

[wide basin]

I think I also heard Xbox one and PS4 players can mix

[barren crown]

On PS store theres a ”ps5 edition and ps4 edition” tho and both are standard

[soft storm]

@marsh wedgeif you buy the gold edition or better you get a cross gen version for next gen

thats only for ps4 and xbox one iirc

[tulip badge]

Correct.
But if you get the Gold edition, then you do not have to buy it again. [You get it for both]

[marsh wedge]

ok

[tulip badge]

I think that is how it will work (I'm not too sure though)

[barren crown]

Oh ok

[wide basin]

Isn’t cross gen for if you have previous gen xbox one it works vice versa on new/current gen

[soft storm]

@wide basinso xbox natively has cross gen support but they dont have it turned on for all games, publishers have to choose to turn it on

[wide basin]

I prefer xbox mainly because controllers

[soft storm]

the way it works for ea is if you buy it on xbox one you get a copy for xbox series s or x

[tulip badge]

Understandable...I prefer PC because Keyboard and Mouse :D (and more reasons)

[soft storm]

its so they can get you to buy it twice if you didnt get gold or above

[wide basin]

The problem with me if I use a PS4 or any PS is the fact that I have large hands so big problem

[wide basin]

Never played on PC tbh

[tulip badge]

Yes that makes sense. Once you get used to playing on one controller, using a new controller with different sizes and layouts can feel weird

[wide basin]

Since my current PC isn’t made for gaming tried to run war thunder or world of warships it lagged intensely its a office work one @tulip badge

[tulip badge]

As long as you're having fun then it's all good :D

[wide basin]

Yeah

i think most people play xbox one to be fair

Since people keep mass buying then selling for double the retail price

So prob wait till 2022 norm when price drops

[tulip badge]

Yes that's an issue with the new consoles. The same issue is happening with the new PC GPUs (the main part in the PC when it comes to gaming) It's tough to get the consoles and GPUs right now

[latent moat]

Alder Lake 300% IPC increase...............................................................................over pentium II

[tulip badge]

We all have to wait to upgrade for a reasonable price

[cursive wigeon]

Battlefield players:women with metal arms ruins my immersion

Also battlefield players: pilot ejects from jet fires a rocket then climbs back into jet that's So cool

Seems legit

Game looks sick

But the straw manning is hilarious

[ornate swallow]

true

[wide basin]

Battlefield 4 vibes

When people did that with planes

[twin yarrow]

Imagine having to buy the game twice LMAO

[ornate swallow]

but theres no way people are complaining about women in 2042 right? it takes place in the damn future

[wide basin]

This is what happened with bfv

People complained

[proven charm]

https://youtu.be/_koBcDsS2mE

rip anyone who payed for the elites

[ornate swallow]

i mean at least in BFV is kinda understandable since WW2? but the hate was way too big then shouldve been

[jade lintel]

true,

[soft storm]

theres only 7 maps at launch

[twin yarrow]

Rip me then

[cursive wigeon]

They probably fucking will

[ornate swallow]

yooo what

[jade lintel]

They're fucking massive.

[twin yarrow]

I upgraded to definitive edition

[cursive wigeon]

It was never about the immersion

[wide basin]

I mean they are large scale apart from the ones for PS4 and Xbox one

[jade lintel]

It's basically the size of 15 current-style BF maps.

[soft storm]

theyre gonna be old within a month

we all know this

[jade lintel]

Hell no

[tidal hawk]

They always do, sometimes somewhat understandable, but in this case i wont agree, bf5 having women was kinda weird

[ornate swallow]

i mean there was a dude saying dice learned from not putting too much "sjw bs"in the 2042 trailer whatever the hell that means

[tranquil jackal]

Imagine giving about BFV

[tidal hawk]

Ww2 with females

[wide basin]

I wonder if Wake island will be there most likely not but yes

[solid hinge]

I've expected 10 as usual no matter the size, remember when BF2042 was supposed to be ahead of development schedule?

[tidal hawk]

Wait lol how i noticed nothing

[soft storm]

@solid hingeexactly

[tidal hawk]

[ornate swallow]

cuz u werent there lol

ill show u them

[tranquil jackal]

I mean the fucking BFV trailer was dogshit

[solid hinge]

Yes cuz I've always found BF4 vanilla maps really bad

[tranquil jackal]

Let's be honest

[ornate swallow]

this person

[tidal hawk]

I mean the "sjw bullshit in 2042 trailer"
Like, fucking where, all i saw was hidden memes

[soft storm]

mfw we only get a new map a season

[solid hinge]

really?

[tranquil jackal]

1 map every 3 months

fuck em

[tidal hawk]

Oooh, i get it mb i got confused @ornate swallow

[uneven hollow]

Ngl they should’ve gave away boins

[jade lintel]

It's basically like getting 3 maps in one.

[ornate swallow]

true it was preatty garbage

[cursive wigeon]

It was weird but like

It's multiplayer
I'm an American using a Russian AR an Italian pistol and using German anti aircraft experimental weapons

[ornate swallow]

oh ok lol

[cursive wigeon]

Who cares

[jade lintel]

The more you keep bitching and moaning about it the worse it'll be for you

[wide basin]

Never got around to seeing the whole but yes agreed

[soft storm]

wah wah

[solid hinge]

then it means only 12 extra maps in a 3-year long live service

[soft storm]

wah wah wah

[tranquil jackal]

Are fucking EA staff reading through the discord? I hope they are because this isn't very positive

[soft storm]

theres no campaign dude

[jade lintel]

keep crying.

[uneven hollow]

Don’t think they even pay attention to it

[wide basin]

Atleast you dont gotta pay for maps

[uneven hollow]

[wide basin]

Who was the guy earlier that somehow had playing BF 2042

[jade lintel]

and they're gonna be massive

[tranquil jackal]

You shilling bro?

[soft storm]

remember when they said we dont gotta pay for maps in bfv and then they delayed a single map for 4 months

[jade lintel]

What is a shill

[tranquil jackal]

Never forget BFV

[ornate swallow]

you guys gotta relise these maps are gonna be BIG AS FUCK

[jade lintel]

We still didn't have to pay, dumbass.

[proven charm]

selling out to something

[jade lintel]

ah

[ornate swallow]

so they gonna take longer to add

[wide basin]

Hmm firestorm in bfv was a disaster

[soft storm]

and that map was worth 20 maps

[solid hinge]

it would be nice whether objectives on breakthrough maps will be slightly randomised

[tidal hawk]

Okay but the weapons existed
Women on the frontline tho ehhhhh
I think it ruins the immersion imo, you wont see the big difference with guns, and i also think they should have gone with russians and add more guns instead of experimentals, so you know

[finite gull]

By the way Tom has been able to qualm some fears about the specialists

you will have the standard classes

[ornate swallow]

really?

[finite gull]

Yes

[wide basin]

Time to go watch 80 videos on leaks

[ornate swallow]

well that clears things even more

[finite gull]

The specialists simply exist to “enhance” the class

[soft storm]

why didnt they fucking mention that

[tranquil jackal]

That makes it even worse

Where the balance go though

[ornate swallow]

i see

[pastel storm]

Now i want to see 70 Russian grandpa's running around on release day

[finite gull]

You don’t have to run them

[gray saffron]

it kinda makes sense bf is only mp.. they got apex for battle royale stuff. star wars for singleplayer stuffs, bf = their mp pony

[finite gull]

But they will have specific abilities

[pastel storm]

The battlefield experience

[wide basin]

Wait I do wonder with support class then will they be able to build is a good question

[pastel yew]

Fun matches today, Al marj: Landmines

[tidal hawk]

Wait so, you got the classes and
Specialists are like elites but they give you bonus traits?

Im confused

[ornate swallow]

true

[finite gull]

Classes remain as classes

[soft storm]

so theres still standard classes but you can choose to play as a specialist and lose out on a standard gadget for a specialist one

[tranquil jackal]

Ah yes the 3 horsemen of give me your fucking money

[wide basin]

Hmm I just annoyed everyone in bfv by playing support and building

[finite gull]

You will most likely have a select character option

[solid hinge]

well picking up specialists is only optional

[finite gull]

Kind of like BFV

[jade lintel]

true.

[solid hinge]

is that true?

[pastel storm]

I cant wait to meet a sniper with a GL and is also reviving lmao

[hushed pagoda]

wanna know how to truely annoy people as a support in BFV?

[jade lintel]

I don't think so.

[gray saffron]

don't give teammates ammo

[fossil heron]

Kinda like that they're getting rid of classes

[wide basin]

I was part of the lunge mine brigade

[finite gull]

And specialists exist to augment said class. However you lose out on one gadget slot in favor of the specialist’s gadget

[tranquil jackal]

A sniper with that sentry

[ripe compass]

[tidal hawk]

You got that right fuck

[wide basin]

Hmm surely gotta pay for specialists

[soft storm]

@finite gullwhere did you get the info that there are still standard classes? a tweet or?

[finite gull]

Henderson tweet

[soft storm]

link?

[tranquil jackal]

I heard weapons won't be class locked so Sniping Sentry?

[fossil heron]

@wide basin im guessing company coin

[hushed pagoda]

play on devastation, sit in a objective's corner, make sure you are wearing dark clothes and equip the MG-42

[jade lintel]

I thought you were against leaks, mav.

[hushed pagoda]

people will move to the body you just killed and act confused, then shoot em all

[tranquil jackal]

I betcha they added classes just because of the backlash

[tidal hawk]

I mean, the medic one would only improve, the ranged revive seems pretty strong to not use the specialist

[finite gull]

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/nw52zc/tom_has_been_able_to_explain_the_specialist/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

[soft storm]

tom was right about 90% so why not

[hushed pagoda]

its a little trolling

[wide basin]

Hmm then I shall grind

[finite gull]

Or maybe, just maybe, they were always there

And the specialists took the forefront because this is a first for Battlefield

[fossil heron]

Id be mad if classes were paid only

[tranquil jackal]

I'm just joking now stop shillinh and acknowledge this specialist shit is bullshit

[wide basin]

@fossil heron I thought I heard one has a grapple hook or something

[gray saffron]

i think jackfrags also explained that the specialists operate under the traditional stuff. but the guns are all classless

[fossil heron]

That would legitimately make me not want to play the game

[hushed pagoda]

pay 50$ to play assault

[wide basin]

The way of EA

[finite gull]

Yes

Guns are classless now

[wide basin]

Pay to play

Pay for graphics

[finite gull]

Which will be interesting

[tranquil jackal]

AH YEAH SENTRY SNIPER

[fossil heron]

Like i dont mind paying for cosmetics

[jolly apex]

Heyy yay I got BF 4 for free

[tranquil jackal]

SENTRY SNIPER CAMPING HERE WE GO

[gray saffron]

specialists are gameplay stuff, so they will fall underneath the free battlepass

[hushed pagoda]

how

[finite gull]

I wonder what the menu will look like

[ornate swallow]

competitive players when a casual game has casual mechanics:

[jolly apex]

Twitch prime

[fossil heron]

As soon as a game becomes p2w im out

[hushed pagoda]

cringe twitch

[jade lintel]

oh god

[gray saffron]

and i assume it will be like the bfv battlepas where after 2 weeks you can unlock it for currency if you missed out on unlocking it

[hushed pagoda]

sentry sniper what

what are yall talking about

[gray saffron]

in-game currency*

[wide basin]

Cosmetics if and only if they give advantage like a dark corner for instance then I guess worth it other than that just depends on how it would looks

[soft storm]

man why cant ea dice just explain this stuff themselves instead of having leakers explain it

[gray saffron]

the only thing that are paid are just cosemtics

[jade lintel]

That's a nice idea for people that don't play as often.

[finite gull]

I’d be willing to bet that DICE will cut maps in half for last gen consoles. This will double the amount of maps technically

[wide basin]

Should be made time limited

[tranquil jackal]

weapons aren't class locked, and one specialist can make a 20mm sentry

Hence sentry sniper

[hushed pagoda]

based

[gray saffron]

heavily disagree. fomo needs to die

[fossil heron]

I spend money on making my characters look as dumb as possible in all games

[jade lintel]

that would be interesting

[hushed pagoda]

Can you modify the sentry to have different weapons

like shotguns, etc

[jade lintel]

Indeed.

[fossil heron]

Pokemon Go survives off fomo

[tranquil jackal]

20mm only so far

[jade lintel]

But y'know what i hate more than limited-time battlepasses?

Limited-time GAMEMODES.

[hushed pagoda]

Deez nuts

[jade lintel]

FUCK that.

[tranquil jackal]

FUCK THAT

[fossil heron]

I miss frontlines

[hushed pagoda]

500v500 limited time gamemode guys

why wouldnt yall like it

[ripe compass]

good bye fps

[jolly apex]

BF4 is now 3% downloaded

[tranquil jackal]

Frames go FJKALDSFHOIHGOIS:HGIOUPHEGOUEW

[jade lintel]

All that hard dev work and effort only for it to be available for a week or 2.

[wide basin]

Wait a minute so specialist are optional to play other than that your normal battlefield classes like support can still build some things I hope

[jade lintel]

That must be so disheartening for the devs

[wide basin]

Since in BFV you could build artillery if your support

Or something

And repair

[jade lintel]

and staionary MG

s

[gray saffron]

bfv, why u did thiz

[ornate swallow]

u guys think operation will be in 2042?

[fossil heron]

I believe they'll keep the bob the builder stuff

[junior depot]

guys im so scared of whats going to happen to BF4 if everyone leaves to go play 2042. also why is it specifically 2042 and not 2040? are people going to be playing this game still 20 years from now?

[wide basin]

I cant wait to use a MG ingame because yes

[fossil heron]

Goes well with destruction

[jade lintel]

fecking pain.

[potent moth]

what do y'all think about the game not having campaign? in all honesty I think it's a good change

[wide basin]

Technically 2042 is a upgraded version of BF4

[fossil heron]

Agree. No one buys bf for the campaign

[ornate swallow]

ngl BF4 might die since 2042 is BF4 with extra shits

[vapid plover]

no campaign = good

[gray saffron]

great change. the campaigns were super lacklustre after 3. (exception hardline). now they can fully focus on mp and make that the greatest game. while i'm a bit sad of no firestorm 2.0, ea already got apex, so it makes sense imo.

[jade lintel]

I agree, campaign just requires too much resources and time considering how little you get out of it.

[ornate swallow]

especially on PC

[potent moth]

you could have said the same for BF3, but it's still alive

[junior dock]

ку

[warm atlas]

I just wonder what DICE LA is doing.

[wide basin]

I remember some of those youtubers who play those long games and what not like campaigns did one for BATTLEFIELD V

[gray saffron]

plus the game seems to be having bots co-op matches now, so that's great

[ornate swallow]

ok u got me there

[gray saffron]

in case you wanna cheese stupid assingments and shit ;D

or just vibe

[jade lintel]

same, i bet their mode is gonna be great.

[ornate swallow]

but BF4 playerbase will decline quite alot still

[soft storm]

Tom also posted under this twitter comment that there can still be 20 Marias for example running in the same map. So when one specialist has a meta ability you are going to see him everywhere which is my personal concern with the specialists.
oh fuck

[warm atlas]

Will we finally see the dinosaur mode?

[jade lintel]

oh god

[wide basin]

Yeah like the MG42 gold said kill 20 players in 1 life

[soft storm]

so there are classes still but specialists with meta abilities will take over

[jade lintel]

Weird

[soft storm]

so basically its an extension/evolution of the archetype system from bfv combined with elites

[brisk osprey]

ride-able dinosaurs on the rogue transmission rework

[jade lintel]

Honestly specialists shouldn't be a thing.

[warm atlas]

I can foresee that wing suit specialist being very popular.

[wide basin]

Tho specialist wont be free

[soft storm]

theyll be free in the sense you have to grind for them

[jade lintel]

Classes work fine enough already, and specilasits are just very confusing in terms of what they do.

[wide basin]

Well yes or just buy credits

[soft storm]

they really put heros in a traditional mp game

[jade lintel]

Plus a lot of idiots now think that BF is just gonna be overwatch

[warm atlas]

JF said gameplay stuff is in the free battle passes. I feel like specialists are gameplay changing.

[gray saffron]

i think ti will be clearer the more info we get. ea/dice migth just be overly explaining it that it sounsd complex.

[warm atlas]

If not, they’re gonna be rough to balance.

[wide basin]

Who said that just infuriates me

[brisk osprey]

the specialist system may operate like cod bo3 if anyone played that game

[wide basin]

Calling a franchise possibly more successful than overwatch

[soft storm]

this sounds more like an evolution of the system in swbf2 where you can play as classes but theres hero units you can play as

[jade lintel]

some idiot on BFEE literally said it was "now copying overwatch"

[gray saffron]

also, i haven't seen anyone talk about it, but you can swap out attachments ont he fly now like crysis

[soft storm]

tho, im unsure if its wise for anybody to play as them

[tranquil jackal]

Oh wait so you also have to grind for your fucking specialist abilities?

WTF

[jade lintel]

That honestly made me slam my head into a table

[brisk osprey]

nice

[soft storm]

20 dudes with auto sentries...

[wide basin]

Isnt battlefield the company it self older than overwatch

[soft storm]

20 guys with wingsuits...

[wide basin]

Like imagine

[jade lintel]

tons more.

[wide basin]

BATTLEFIELD AND OVERWATCH are nothing alike

[jade lintel]

It's way older

[brisk osprey]

yea overwatch is p recent

[jade lintel]

The only real thing similar is a class-based system but that's it.

[brisk osprey]

comparably speaking at least

[tranquil jackal]

Overwatch has credibility unlike the BF franchise you're saying?

[wide basin]

Yeah but most other games like cod have class systems sorta

[jade lintel]

nah

[wide basin]

No Battlefield is better in all ways

[jade lintel]

COD just has a lot of things you can switch around and mix and match

[brisk osprey]

i think specialists will be good for the game, give players more than 4 options and really pick an operator that fits their playstyle

[wide basin]

But someone said battlefield is copying overwatch @tranquil jackal

[solid hinge]

special forces class was already a thing in bf2

[gray saffron]

i think it's more like you have four slots and have to select which specialists you take into battle that operate on those slots.

like uhh.. titan fall!

[sage pendant]

If anything BF6 is more along the lines of Seige now with specialists, lmao people comparing to overwarch you don’t have ultimates. You’re still gonna have your engineer role, sniper role, support and medic roles.

[brisk osprey]

was ab to say

[soft storm]

its more like swbf2

[warm atlas]

I just hope the gameplay showcases some destruction. That trailer was lacking in showing what we can blow up. They made great strides in BF1 and BFV in terms of destruction. It would be a shame for it to be toned back.

[brisk osprey]

yea

[split plank]

I hope they specify more on the specialist stuff

Im not a fan of it if its like COD specialists

[wide basin]

Yeah I wasnt comparing just some other guy said that battlefield was copying the class system like my guy all fps games have a class system well most of them

[gray saffron]

litterally a tornado and a transport plane crashing shit at diamand peak in the intro :3

[solid hinge]

no surprise they moved entire dev team of this game just to work on battlefield title

[jade lintel]

I kinda like the idea, it's just poorly marketed.

[soft storm]

yeah but this game mustve been in deep development before they moved the swbf2 guys over

[warm atlas]

Yeah but the tornado also cascaded past two skyscrapers without a dent.

[sage pendant]

This is gonna be the most ambitious BF

[wide basin]

And also because this cant fail otherwise splat goes the egg

[chrome pendant]

IM SO HYPED

[jade lintel]

Also can we talk about fucking webster

Please

[chrome pendant]

The trailer was absolutely beautiful

BF fans have deserved this for so long

[ornate swallow]

please tell me im not the only one who got reminded of damavand peak at the begining of the 2042 trailer

[brisk osprey]

i hope they connect the tech in the new game to final stand, thatd be really neat

[warm atlas]

That was definitely intentional.

[jade lintel]

literally everyone was lmao

[wide basin]

Who saw the picture leaks few days ago of a picture of the hud with minimap and all

[soft storm]

It seems to me its much more like SWBF2 where the 4 classes are still there, but instead of buying the reinforcements/hero units with in match points theyre able to be chosen at any time

[solid hinge]

majority of players got the reference

[jade lintel]

Neat idea.

[ornate swallow]

ok ok good to know

[soft storm]

so you can have like 20 marias with stim guns

[jade lintel]

Also webster is fucking awesoem

[tranquil jackal]

I don't think there will be a lot of destruction if it is going to be 64v64 with big fucking maps

[brisk osprey]

imagine overhealing like doc

[ornate swallow]

i was worried people would have forgoten about damavan peak lmao

[wide basin]

There will if im there

[warm atlas]

[soft storm]

its a weird combination of the archetype system with elites and SWBF2's reinforcement system

[gray saffron]

forget about the best rush map?

[ornate swallow]

yes, dumb ik

[spark light]

Any news on PC requirements?

[soft storm]

mfw a building gets destroyed and the server crashes

[gray saffron]

that cliff fall is still one of my fav gaming moments

[soft storm]

i wouldve prefered archetypes that didnt have names

[jade lintel]

He looks SO MUCH like BF4 engie, he has a grapple hook, he's an agressive specialist (my fav playstyle), and he's a canadian, which we usually don't see in games.

[soft storm]

like why did they have to name them

"enemy maria spotted"

[brisk osprey]

as long as the movement's good, ill play it

[warm atlas]

Destruction is a mainstay in Battlefield. It just would be a shame to see it become lackluster. I know it’s harder to do with actual skyscrapers and stuff, but you barely saw anything.

[wide basin]

I mean Battlefield 4 was 64 wasnt it or something

And that was destructive

[warm atlas]

If it has BFV’s movement, which it probably will, it’ll be fantastic.

[jade lintel]

Yeah.

[brisk osprey]

my thoughts exactly, the only reason i played bfv was the movement, and i enjoyed almost every second of it because of that

[jade lintel]

Sex is cool and all, but have you ever done a slide-cancelled jump?

[gray saffron]

battlefield 4's destruction was a lot less compared to 3 imo. in 3 you could shoot at a random house ins eine crossing and watch debris fall down that damage people. in shanghai of 4, you could fire at a random building and nothing happens

[ornate swallow]

i never understood why they never added damavand peak in second assault for rush

[brisk osprey]

have you ever reverse lean slid a nerd with a lunge mine?

[warm atlas]

One of the many reasons I don’t like 4

[ornate swallow]

i havent actually

[brisk osprey]

bc2 desctruction tho

[civic ibex]

???

[jade lintel]

Nah, i don't have enough CC for the lunge mine

[brisk osprey]

my dad's playing bc2 rn actually

[brisk osprey]

F

[jade lintel]

ye

[civic ibex]

Wdym “sex” this is battlefield…

[brisk osprey]

you cant lean with it either ):

[warm atlas]

I would argue that Battlefield 1 had the best destruction in the series. Even better than BC2

[gray saffron]

slide cancelling is cool and all, but you have ever kamikazed a transport vehicle with people in it?

[wide basin]

Yeah so Xbox one version if BF4 was max 64 players same as the new game coming out but in bf4 was still super destructive even with that amount

[brisk osprey]

yes

[jade lintel]

BTW if you buy the lunge mine for assault does it also unlock for support as well?

[tranquil jackal]

BF 1 had god tier destruction

[wide basin]

Yes

[ornate swallow]

yes

[jade lintel]

thankew

[warm atlas]

New game is 128 players on PC and New Gen

[wide basin]

I have Xbox one big sad

[junior depot]

Is it cross play tho?

[tawny saddle]

nothing was left at the end of a round on Suez

[civic ibex]

Guess not?

[ornate swallow]

not confirmed yet

nor deconfirmed

[jade lintel]

I really, REALLY hope so.

[tranquil jackal]

Never, all houses were always wrecked

[wide basin]

Then again I think most people dont have new gen console since not many in stock @warm atlas

[ornate swallow]

we gotta wiat for a response from dice

[wide basin]

And people mads buying

[brisk osprey]

i hope you can turn TAA off, TAA is just so ugly

[wide basin]

Then selling triple the price

[brisk osprey]

you cant in bfv

[jade lintel]

i hope it's a yes

[ornate swallow]

me too

[jade lintel]

Everyone on PS doesn't know how to do teamplay at all

[fleet bloom]

it's not cross play, if you want cross play you have to pay 100 dollars lol

[jade lintel]

it's horrible

[wide basin]

Hmm real time situations so if a ship stuck in suez canal there will be

[ornate swallow]

COD did it so its time for battlefiield to do the same

[jade lintel]

yeah

[fleet bloom]

oh i misunderstood

[ornate swallow]

it fine

[jade lintel]

I also really wanna play with my PC and xbox friends

[ornate swallow]

that be cool actually

lets just pray dice says something about crossplay

[fleet bloom]

if it dont have crossplay it's just gonna die after 6 months and people will just play the 64 person mode instead

[jade lintel]

true.

[ornate swallow]

u mean next gen

[jade lintel]

it would MASSIVELY boost player counts

Cuz next gen would be pretty empty without crossplay

[ornate swallow]

well duh why wouldnt it

[soft storm]

i think they should do cross platform

but knowing sony

they might not get it

but i hope that from what they did with apex they can

[jade lintel]

i swear to fucking god if they don't....

[unkempt condor]

Question, am I in the minority if I believe breakthrough is better than rush?

[soft storm]

thats why breakthrough replaced rush

[brisk osprey]

i prefer it

[unkempt condor]

This is someone who grew up on the series playing rush

[split plank]

I was never really a fan of rush

[jade lintel]

oh nah it's better

[brisk osprey]

same i started in bc2

[jade lintel]

Rush had more issues

[split plank]

I know plenty of people loved it but breakthrough was donepretty good

esp on Iwo Jima

[soft storm]

man, the information on specialists is wack all over the internet

[proven charm]

we already KNOW breakaway will be vehicle central

like golmud

or al sundan

[wheat lark]

Battlefield boutta make me go broke for pc upgrades

[jade lintel]

whelp, shit.

[unkempt condor]

Don't get me wrong I love rush over conquest, but rush seemed flawed in that you were going for a terminal that people would spam with c4

[wheat lark]

That shi gon need a RTX 2000

[proven charm]

nahh looking forward to it

[jade lintel]

Yeah, it was pretty dumb.

[proven charm]

i wanna fly some cool stuff and bomb people from the sky

[jade lintel]

Breakthrough was far less clustered

[solid hinge]

Anyone Pre-order BF2042 yet?

[queen canopy]

I'm looking forward to most maps tbh, Kaleidoscope looks pretty great

[split plank]

Im waiting for the 13th

[soft storm]

im hoping tom is right and specialists dont replace classes but this could easily be one of the times where hes wrong

[unkempt condor]

I've played every Battlefield since BC2. Iwo Jima breakthrough is my favorite experience in all of battlefield

[split plank]

^^

Pacific was chief experience of BFV

[queen canopy]

Also interested to see what they do with Renewal, its the one map we haven't really seen thus far

[split plank]

I personally aint going to preorder till the 13th

[proven charm]

it reminds me of Shanghai

[jade lintel]

personally my fav is the snow map becuase it literally has the fucking hovervans from top gear in it

[unkempt condor]

Oh yeah, Pacific was awesome, it irks me that they didn't use that momentum to keep the game alive

[proven charm]

as in urban, eastern asian and can support all 3 types of vehicles

[queen canopy]

Not to mention the Ripsaw, which was also on TG

[split plank]

well 5.2 obliterated that momentum

[unkempt condor]

Yup

[solid hinge]

You are able to customize your specialists accessories and outfit

[jade lintel]

Oh that's the name of the ice tank.

[proven charm]

[queen canopy]

tfw 5.2 was a whole 2 years ago

[brisk osprey]

[unkempt condor]
