[bronze gazelle]

all bf games for 10 dollars

on steam right now

thats insane

i mean bf4, bfv, and bf1

sorry not all

So what site should I pre order so I can cancel if i don't like beta?

[kind edge]

fucking hate that gun

[solid hinge]

It looks like shit this post was made by mp40 gang

Macaroni ass grip ass headass

[kind edge]

im planning on getting the xbox game pass for PC its only a $1

[bronze gazelle]

good idea

now where is that spare credit card

[solid hinge]

In the bathroom bottom drawer

Next to the lawn mower 3.0

[wide maple]

i just realise that the bf bundle is at 90% off lol

[uneven hollow]

Sounds pog

[boreal goblet]

some guy is calling me a no skill for getting 36-6

while they snip

[rustic eagle]

bf moment

[tribal cairn]

Yep that sounds about right

[gusty nexus]

hey, I've been planning on buying some battlefield game for a while now while I wait for bf2042, and now seemed the perfect time, with the almost 90% discount on bf1 and bf5

but then I read all the steam reviews... is the hacker problem really that bad?

[bronze gazelle]

thats the best idea i've ever heard.

[tribal cairn]

Eh, it's always been that way with bf

[bronze gazelle]

yeah pretty amazing bfv however isn't really worth it

[bronze gazelle]

If you look at my name its because of playing BFV.

[gusty nexus]

that bad huh

[bronze gazelle]

yeah but i've been starting community game servers so its not to bad

just dont join public dice servers

to many cheaters

[tribal cairn]

Eh, I play consoles so I don't really give a shit.

[gusty nexus]

same for bf1?

[bronze gazelle]

nah bf1 is way better

the anti cheat actually works

but cheaters are still apparent only play the RSP servers not the dice servers

[tribal cairn]

With a much smaller player base, I imagine.

[bronze gazelle]

the BF Bundles worth it just don't bother playing BFV honestly

[tribal cairn]

Considering with 2042, everyone's jumping on BF4 and beta testing

[gusty nexus]

how beginner friendly is the game? like, will I spawn and get 360 no scoped all the time by people with more hours than me?

[tribal cairn]

Eh, you'll die, but the guns are decently fair with a few exceptions

Frankly as long as you don't spawn on an objective and immediately run into gunfire, you should be fine

[gusty nexus]

sounds doable

[tribal cairn]

I will say a word of warning for diving into much older games like 3 and 4

They do have a veteran player base of sorts

Especially 3

[solid hinge]

How far away are we?

[mighty thorn]

4 is rough starting with the newbie guns

[solid hinge]

From preloading, that is.

[little lava]

I am looking at the EA Play pro page for BF and it says "Exclusive member-only rewards every month" any idea what this is? Not sure if I should buy it on steam or just get ea play pro

[gusty nexus]

so bf1 would be the best choice then, is it?

[mighty thorn]

are you deciding which one to buy?

[gusty nexus]

yea

[mighty thorn]

i'd just get EA play and try them all

it's like $5/month

[bronze gazelle]

oh yeah

[mighty thorn]

til 2042 comes out

[bronze gazelle]

you can even just get Xbox game pass

[gusty nexus]

well $5 is the game now

[bronze gazelle]

its 1 dollar right now

try all the battlefield games

[gusty nexus]

I had game pass in the past already

[bronze gazelle]

and try the new one coming out

use a new card...

[gusty nexus]

so not $1 anymore 😦

fuck emojis lol

[bronze gazelle]

find someone that has a card like one of your family members

no its a dollar right now

just checked

for new subscribers obviously.

[gusty nexus]

ah yeah, this what I meant

for me it wouldn't be $1

[mighty thorn]

ea play is $5 tho, cheaper than gamepass at least

and you can play 3, 4, 1, V

the only old one i'd actually buy is 1. 4 gonna die if 2042 is good

[tribal cairn]

So is 1.

That's how franchising works

Everyone moves to the newest and biggest thing

[mighty thorn]

probly, but some ppl like the setting. i like to play 4 and 1 alternating

[tribal cairn]

It leaves behind a small, loyal playerbase

Like with BF3

The only people playing it, last time I hopped on it on the PS3 were 100+

[mighty thorn]

yea

[solid hinge]

Does Gamepass Ultimate give early access to the Beta?

Aight

[calm forge]

How long till xbox pre load

[steady hawk]

i believe 32 mins from now

[worldly mesa]

If you have game pass ultimate you automatically have EA play which gives you access

[solid hinge]

Sweet

[worldly mesa]

Glad I could answer

[neon bone]

will the pre order be available on ea desktop?

[solid hinge]

If I buy bf1 revolution edition on steam and already have it on origin will my progress carry over?

[ocean flower]

How's it feel for bf4 bunny hoppers to have their kill death ratio just barely be at 1.0 when switching to bf2042

[rich kiln]

guys, classic ea play enough for beta?

[calm forge]

Only found series X where is xbox one

[lofty lodge]

yes

[indigo trench]

I really hope beta will be that one hour earlier

I have school at 10:35

Beta starts at 9

Tram is at 10;03

so I would have around 50 minutes

But if it will be hour later that would be 1 hour and 50 minutes

And that's better

I mean i will play after school but still

[bronze gazelle]

Bro how I play BF1

am i like not allowed to play it because EA don't want me to anymore?

[foggy sail]

is it the bug where its just greayed out and/or no play button

[bronze gazelle]

No

It ask me to play online

I click it

and then it can't connect online but all my other bf work

[foggy sail]

strange, my origin sometimes just doesnt let me play

[bronze gazelle]

and everytime i launch game it forces me to play intro

brew

i was just playing game yesterday why ea do this to me

[boreal goblet]

@bronze gazelle ya real bout the boycott

[bronze gazelle]

yeah cause i don't know how good their anti cheat going ot be

[boreal goblet]

ya see. the vids

2042 easy anticheat anf if a cheater is caught they insta get accound, IP and hardware banned

2042 got a ingame report

game anticheat for fortnite

[bronze gazelle]

oh so cool

once I actually see it and ppl actually using it

maybe I'll possibly buy it

but for now i'm boycotting

[boreal goblet]

u on october 8th:

1: EXTREME BOYCOTT NOT READY

2: no boycott idk

[solid hinge]

i be praying the beta wont really be 100gb

[rustic eagle]

The beta is 20

[acoustic creek]

Its preload only so no servers up

[royal summit]

Correct

[rustic eagle]

Ok so

[dire mulch]

ah yes

my cringe account

[solid hinge]

i already downloaded the open beta on origin but the servers will open up on the 8th😓

[dire mulch]

alr

[rustic eagle]

Pre orders get it sooner

You should probably use those in the stats channel

[dire mulch]

m

[novel mirage]

Yeah there’s a stat channel for this

[dire mulch]

oh my bad

[novel mirage]

🤔

[dire mulch]

sorry

[rustic eagle]

Not even sure why the commands work In here

[novel mirage]

Was gonna ask the same thing

[rustic eagle]

This is probably a #blamehess moment

[solid hinge]

ea access worth it

[prime pine]

Anyone who uses the bot in this channel from here on out will be muted.

[lofty lodge]

where do we use

oh on stats sorry

[rustic eagle]

#stats

[lofty lodge]

my bad

[solid hinge]

thats not nice

[pulsar valve]

Because Discord

Anyways. Now all commands are disabled in this channel

Including /when

[rustic eagle]

Good ol discord

[bronze gazelle]

what are ppl doing with this bot?

It just lets me pre load the beta?

I still need to pre order to actually play it tomorrow?

[prime pine]

Yes

[bronze gazelle]

oh ok

[mellow creek]

I have a question specific for Battlefield 4 for PC and its server browser - is this the right channel for that?

[novel mirage]

Pretty sure it is

[dire mulch]

now i cant tell a dude /when did I ask?

[royal summit]

!!Betaspecs

[ruby trail]

These are the minimum/recommended PC requirements released by DICE for the Open Beta: https://i.imgur.com/4hJnAqF.png

[dire mulch]

!!Betaspecs

uh

[mellow creek]

I end up getting the message "You have been banned from this server" on 80% of the servers I try to join on BF4

I manually updated Punkbuster and it still won't work

Any ideas to why?

[solid hinge]

check your stats on BF4BD

[royal summit]

Because you've been banned on BF4BD and others

[normal mica]

18gb-20gb

[pastel yew]

I like the language feature in stats

[mellow creek]

As in Battlelog?

Is BF4BD some thirdparty site?

I really lack the knowledge here

[royal summit]

search discord for BF4DB server

[solid hinge]

whats ur account name @mellow creek

[mellow creek]

https://www.bf4db.com/player/1003373021578

There it is, and everything looks good

Appears like I'm not banned

[royal summit]

Awesome

[mellow creek]

That's why I can't figure out why I get that message

[solid hinge]

is there a reason listed on the ban message?

there should be one

[mellow creek]

All it says is "You have been banned from this server.", word for word

On servers I have never played on before

Would send screenshots if I could

[frozen ridge]

Anyone preloading on steam? please help?

[wise shuttle]

Preloading up?

[fallen flame]

Yeah

[earnest rose]

sweet

[lavish verge]

Go to the store page of bf and request beta access

[dire mulch]

whenever i play bfv like

the last tiger mission

it crashes

at some part

what do I do

[bronze gazelle]

so is everyone able to download the beta without pre order?

[dire mulch]

mhm

[bronze gazelle]

or is it just me

[surreal vault]

Yes

But preorder lets you start playing the 6th, 8th is open

[solid hinge]

Looking for teams for our bf 2042 esports league Crossplay

Pm

[knotty jacinth]

Gsme not even out yet bruh

[rustic eagle]

bf and esports arent really the best mix

[untold lily]

Battlefield and eSports only works when it's squad v squad

[rustic eagle]

ye but even then its not really the best game for it

[untold lily]

And at that point the game isn't even out so it's not stable and worth the potential tech headaches

[bronze gazelle]

competitive bf is fine...

[rustic eagle]

its fine i guess, but its just not good

[crystal stump]

When can we pre-load ?

[rustic eagle]

a few hours ago

[crystal stump]

How?

[rustic eagle]

go check the pins in 2042 chat

[untold dust]

Quick question. Is it only battlefield or do other games on steam require to to click the "request access" button for betas? Also why does that button exist when they're just gonna give it to us lol?

Do they not give beta acess to some sketchy accounts? Or is it just to add you into the beta participation?

[rustic eagle]

everyone who requests it gets it

[worldly moth]

Does BF4 soldier shortcut bundle include attatchements?

[unique idol]

does bf1 still have cheaters

[unique idol]

no

[worldly moth]

Really?

[unique idol]

yes.

[worldly moth]

:/

[unique idol]

only the main set of guns

[idle breach]

aaa

[unique idol]

assault, pdw, lmg, snipers.

[lofty lodge]

no

[blissful bane]

4, 1 and 5 for 11,67 eur

[proven mural]

guys battlefield 4 for me is literally frozen and take 5 minutes for it to go to a single page, what the hell is going on here?

[stiff belfry]

PS4 users need PS Plus to play the Open Beta?

[proven mural]

no

[proven mural]

check their open beta faq, it states it doesn’t

[stiff belfry]

Thanks bro!! 🤜🤛

[rustic rose]

Open Beta between October 6-9, 2021. Early access is available on October 6-7, 2021 for all players who pre-order the game or are current EA Play members.

[proven mural]

addo, are battlefield 4 servers so slow because everyone is playing it before 2042 comes out?

[storm moth]

Ryzen 7 GTX 1680​ ram 16 gb SSD550 Can i play Bf2042???

[grizzled inlet]

You might wanna paste that into the bf2042 channel with the large amounts of people asking “is the beta today” “when is the beta” and pin it.

[solid hinge]

hello

[native saddle]

If I have ea play can I play early access ?

[upbeat pumice]

Yes

[native saddle]

I downloaded the beta through origin and doesnt let me download on the ea app ...

[upbeat pumice]

Same problem here, don't know why..

[native saddle]

Its so confusing 🙂

[magic vine]

I can't downlaod it, somehow the smarturl link is invalid

[foggy sierra]

Everyone is agree with that? (on ea/origin you can't pre dl the beta?) thanks for answer

[vagrant fable]

thanks! i was going to ask too

[foggy sierra]

you welcome

[solid hinge]

🇪🇸💢

[ivory grotto]

"SERVER DISCONNECTED
Connection with EA Online timed out. Your network bandwidth and/or network latency may not meet the requirements for this game"

am i the only one who always gets this in battlefield 1?

[mellow walrus]

i think 30s or 45s slowmode would make battlefield-2042 channel more readable

[cold solar]

Is bf4 worth in 2021?

[rain plaza]

Yeah…

[violet carbon]

question

[rain plaza]

At this point dude, maybe

[violet carbon]

do preorder and ea play required for 2042 beta?

[mellow walrus]

i play it sometimes. there are lots of people playing bf4. still good. 🙂 🙂

[ivory grotto]

i'm on ps4 just to clarify

[errant ledge]

If you enjoy sweating against veterans who are level 140 and are just playing it non stop then yes

[rain plaza]

It’s just preorder

[cold solar]

Its on sale on steam so i thought maybe its good

[mellow walrus]

only for early access (if you want to play tomorow)

[stable plank]

got it for 6 euros on steam, and hell yeah its worth it i can put thousands of hours into that game

[main dirge]

why play bf4 when bf2042 is coming out? xd

[rain plaza]

What the dude said if you wanna sweat but enjoy shooting go for it

[cold solar]

Ive Heard the servers are awful tho

[stable plank]

bf2042 will be 50$

[lavish turret]

Guys i know many of us are still asked it but i wanted to know for me i preordered standard edition can i play tomorrow open beta?

[mellow walrus]

i imagine its by FAR cheaper

[proven mural]

nostalgia

[brave beacon]

Why didnt they include BF1 in BF42 portal?

[stable plank]

they will probably

[cold solar]

They Will update portal later

[main dirge]

the only reason to play bf4 over 2042 is if u dont have the money or the specs for it

[rain plaza]

Yes, As along you preordered the game you’ll be able to have early access

[errant ledge]

they'll give a lot of updates and new content throughout the months/years

[stable plank]

bf1 is basically the most popular battlefield title they will include it

[brave beacon]

They didnt in the trailer

[lavish turret]

Yeah i preordered it in august lol

[cold solar]

I can and Will buy bf2042 Just wondering if the game is still worth

[foggy sierra]

https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion-Feedback/Battlefield-2042-Open-Beta-Preload-Now-Available/m-p/10801171#M341 @vagrant fable

[rain plaza]

You’re set then

[ornate yarrow]

EA are clowns

[stable plank]

they will include it after launch as an update (im more than sure)

[lavish turret]

The problem is the optimization

[brave beacon]

Oooh

[main dirge]

u will find 3-4 good servers with veterans, if u dont mind that then go for it

[ornate yarrow]

EAC is utter shit, literally a rootkit

[lavish turret]

Read about some players with 3060 doing only 90 fps im with notebook and rtx 2070 im really really worried

[errant ledge]

Why are you in this discord then 😛

[stable plank]

better than past "anticheat"

[rancid valley]

Is the beta for pre-order start the 5th or 6th?

[rain plaza]

Pc of course, console idk man

[main dirge]

its beta its ok

[ornate yarrow]

no, it's better to have a few "hackers" than to have some shitty spyware installed on your system

[rain plaza]

6

[lavish turret]

I will hope to not reading tomorrow 30 or 40 fps with my rtx2070

[ornate yarrow]

BattlEye or Vanguard would be even worse

[cold solar]

Somehow the recommended specs are an rtx 3060 tho so if you want to play bf2042 with 128 players you need next gen, i dont think bf2042 Will sell as good as CoD this year imo

[stable plank]

dont you use Windows as your operating system? 😷

[ornate yarrow]

I don't

[errant ledge]

Vanguard looks trash imo. Again a world war game its such an overused time period for games.

[rain plaza]

Bro who cares about graphics as long as I play I’m fine

[lavish turret]

Me too but i dont want the minimum graphic

[stable plank]

linux? you sure it will run?

[ornate yarrow]

vanguard starts on boot, by the way

[lavish turret]

Probably i will be forced to enable DLSS

[ornate yarrow]

yeah, except for the EAC part

[errant ledge]

What specs do you have luke?

[cold solar]

I got a 3060 ti so i hope it Will get 120 ish FPS with medium :) with 128 players im not sure though

[rain plaza]

Shoooo just slap some Sharpening and you’ll be juuust fine

[ornate yarrow]

unless they enable EAC through Proton/Wine, but we'll see how that goes

I'd be able to live with a few cheaters though

[stable plank]

well yeah you should wait until steam does something about it i dont think EA cares that much for Linux

[rain plaza]

Got a 2070 super so I’ll let you know how that goes tomorrow’s

[cold solar]

You should be fine if you dont care much about graphics (i hope)

[stable plank]

someone in the closed beta said that they only get 90 fps with a 2050 and were very disappointed

[ivory venture]

1060 is dead, shi*

[stable plank]

Ill be happy if i get 60 god damn

[cold solar]

Isnt Battlefield 5 badly optimized?

[ivory venture]

yep

[ornate yarrow]

EAC already supports Linux

[rain plaza]

Ah but you see he wasn’t able to adjust a few settings, with a couple notches here and there I should be able to 91 FPS

[ornate yarrow]

both through Wine and Natively, it works a little different on Linux, though

[stable plank]

oh

[cold solar]

I play bf5 medium preset and it sticks around 130

[ornate yarrow]

it doesn't have root/administrator privileges and runs in userspace, in theory, you could use Wine and bypass EAC, but it'd be incredibly difficult

[rain plaza]

Same

[cold solar]

Expected better

[stable plank]

still the performance will be worse on linux either way

[ornate yarrow]

eh, not really

[lavish turret]

Rtx 2070 i79750 notebook omen

[ornate yarrow]

heard through the grapevine that Vulkan support will be there in Battlefield 2042

[cold solar]

Will there be RTX and DLSS?

[ornate yarrow]

no idea

[lavish turret]

I study far from home so i cant have a normal cp i have a notebook(good i suppose)

[stable plank]

well i have an nvidia gpu so i guess if you have amd its gonna be better?

[lavish turret]

Dlss confirmed

[ornate yarrow]

DLSS on Linux will work, though, doesn't matter what game, either, from what I know

AMD's DLSS thingy works on any game whatsoever on Linux, doesn't need implementation, unlike on Windows

[cold solar]

If they implement rtx its probally the directX raytracing, the one in bf5

[lavish turret]

I hope with dlss i can play with medium at keast

[stable plank]

yeah having an nvidia gpu on linux is kinda pain

[ornate yarrow]

it's getting better

[stable plank]

I used popos for the pre-installed drivers and still the performance was.... bad. and vsync didn't work at all

[lavish turret]

Update our nvidia driver guys the game needs last one update

[cold solar]

And is HDR a thing in bf2042?

[ornate yarrow]

might've been the scheduler that was at fault

did it stutter for you?

[stable plank]

yeah

[ornate yarrow]

that was likely to do with the CPU governor you were using, basically, it's what decides what frequency your CPU clocks should be running at

[stable plank]

i eventually switched back to windows because i realized gaming on linux isnt really the best. I do plan making a dualboot tho

[mellow walrus]

you can launch linux invirtual machine...

[nova valve]

Anyone got a list of server locations? ANYONE?

[ornate yarrow]

your CPU was likely using the ondemand governor, which is being deprecated, you should use either schedutil or performance

[stable plank]

i mean i dont expect much from my 1650 but it aint that bad

[stable plank]

i didnt think of that actually)

[stable plank]

virtual machines on windows suck

[ornate yarrow]

I'd recommend something like Fedora instead, though, since you get better and newer technology

[stable plank]

but is it good for nvidia drivers?

[ornate yarrow]

you have to enable an unofficial repository for drivers

[stable plank]

i have a friend who broke their gentoo install like 6 times just to make nvidia drivers work lol

[ornate yarrow]

the open source driver, nouveau, will work ootb but it's pretty bad

you'll have to use the proprietary one

[stable plank]

you can?

[ornate yarrow]

yep

[mellow walrus]

you gona have to configure some graphics settings thought. I recommend lowering all kinds of shadow related settings. ofc there are great many stuff, but this is what comes to mind first.

[ornate yarrow]

most lag will either come from:

1. shader compilation
2. wrong CPU scheduler
3. drivers

you usually use DXVK, which is a cross platform compatibility layer used to run DirectX applications using Vulkan

[sour coral]

Isnt battlefield 2042 closed beta in the ea play pro membership?

[ornate yarrow]

in some cases, there are no 1:1 solutions to properly 'translate', which is why you need to recompile the shaders yourself

[mellow walrus]

i think it is, yes

[sour coral]

hmm i just bought it and i cant download it

[errant saddle]

A 1650? Please tell me it's a 6GB and not a 4gb

[stable plank]

I know that, I used to be a low-end user for a lot of time, i literally played games with 480p resolution. I know how different graphic settings change performance. The main settings i need to change are drawing distance and shadows and it SHOULD run well

[dark ravine]

/when

[stable plank]

4gb:(

[errant saddle]

Oof

[ornate yarrow]

I've been playing on Linux for a while, Battlefield 1, Dragon Age: Inquisition are EA titles that work fairly well

[mellow walrus]

game is not out yet.
but for beta - got to store game page and there will be "Try out First" or something similar button. press that one and follow instructions (pop up with another button)

[ornate yarrow]

Battlefield 2042, in theory, should work even better, if they implement Vulkan

[errant saddle]

Bruh upgrade as soon as you can

[stable plank]

i mean i really dont care about graphics yknow

[sour coral]

Yea i know its not out yet. But is it still the closed beta i will be able to play tomorrow when doing that? It just says open beta on the one i can "try it first" ?

[stable plank]

i just wanna play a good battlefield title for the first time again

[ornate yarrow]

I'll wait for proper Linux support on Battlefield 2042 with their EAC implementation

[solid hinge]

CALL OF DUTY THE BEST!

[ornate yarrow]

maybe I'll buy it then

[mellow walrus]

we all have open beta edition. they wont have special early-access-beta edition 😄

[solid hinge]

Я БЕБРА!

[ornate yarrow]

I believe the Frostbite engine has Linux support, at least to some extent

[stable plank]

mad funny

[errant saddle]

I know but take it from someone who builds PC, that card is limiting your games, graphics wise doesn't matter, spec wise it does

[sour coral]

Oh so its still called open beta when the pre-orders has more time? ah okay ty

[ornate yarrow]

it's kinda funny, given that PlayStation 5 uses FreeBSD, there should be very little hassle porting over the PS5 version from FreeBSD to Linux

[stable plank]

yeah i know but money doesn't come out of my arse sadly

[sour coral]

Just wanted to be sure. Ty for responding 😄

[stable plank]

ps5 uses freebsd?? bruuuh

[ornate yarrow]

it doesn't have license issues like Linux

[errant saddle]

I know, I was in your shoes not long ago and I still got a way to upgrade to a better GPU, I'm just saying the moment you can get a better GPU card do it instantly, I got a better GPU laptop with a 1660 Ti 6GB and have never regretted it

[ornate yarrow]

BSDs are kind of like more pure versions of Linux

[lavish turret]

Someone has read about maps that are too too big(i prefer it cause i play games like squad) but in a casual game like this maybe its a.problem? Also in 128 players it will be difficult?

[errant saddle]

Maybe but area rendering and mapping will be shortened in squad

Like the deathmatch squad mode I mean

[stable plank]

bro all battlefield games had big maps, you can't really make a map for infantry and vehicles without open spaces and large size

[nova valve]

Can any content creator here create some content by telling me if this game will have a South African server or not.

Fucking anyone, please.

[lavish turret]

I love big maps, in some reports some players was complaining about that

[errant saddle]

I can say yes or no on that till they tell us and I haven't heard anything about it yet

[stable plank]

yeah probably warzone players that got accustomed to more close range battles, look at golmud railway or sinai desert theyre just big open spaces and a lot of bf fans love them

[neon wharf]

why on earth is bf5 $9 thats insnae

[nova valve]

I am annoyed.

[stable plank]

youll find out in the open beta

[nova valve]

Slightly more annoyed now.

[errant saddle]

I like both big and small maps, siege of Shanghai was always my favorite

[nova valve]

expensive screen shouldnt punch it

[solid hinge]

hi can i play battlefield 2042 early if i get ea play access

[errant saddle]

Battlefield 1 and 5 were free on prime gaming about 2 weeks ago

[neon wharf]

oh wow

[errant saddle]

Afaik you should be able to

[stable plank]

yeah my fav bf4 map is actually dawnbreaker, its good for infantry and LAVS have plenty of room, and of course only the best pilots dont crash their vehicle in the buildings. I dont like siege of Shanghai because there's no AA and the attack heli tryhard going 100-0 is annoying

[teal stratus]

Does anyone know how the xp will differ between killing online players and killing bots?

[upbeat bough]

https://www.origin.com/usa/en-us/game-library/ogd/Origin.OFR.50.0004592

Try with this

[errant saddle]

Lol I can understand that but I also know how to take out the heli tryhards too

[sour coral]

Thank you. i did find the "hidden" button 😂 So i have it downloaded now 😄

[errant saddle]

My guess is less xp killing bots vs xp from killing players

[errant saddle]

What hidden button?

[stable plank]

RPG or UCAV their ass and watch them cry in chat?

[upbeat bough]

i'm bugged with blank screen in Open Beta library on Origin

this link solved my problem

[teal stratus]

According to the devs the bots will play like proper players so idk how its going to work

[sour coral]

try it first 😂 it wasnt that hidden i was just bit confused on if it only was the open beta that was free since i bought the ea play pro. but i found out it was the same for the pre-orders

i was just kinda stupid lemme say that

[stable plank]

I have a feeling the AI will be very bad honestly

[errant saddle]

Yea that's one way of doing it and I have done that, another is playing as commander and once they sit still for a bit repairing, drop a cruise missile on their heads lol, also been able to shoot them out with a pistol as well

[errant saddle]

I was meaning why you thought it was hidden lol

[sour coral]

idk tbh

[stable plank]

but the missle takes some time to arrive..

[errant saddle]

That's why you have to know when they will start repairing, I've gotten 15 cruise missile kills against helios alone on commander

[lavish turret]

Is there somewhere a complete weapon list?

[stable plank]

big dick energy

[errant saddle]

Lol I've missed a few too but it takes having a good team and a squad of friends that can keep the capture point for the cruise missile

They get player kills with guns while I handle everything else with commander

[zealous stag]

Hello good people, just a quick question, any news on the Beta not appearing on the EA Desktop App? Beacuse i dont rellay wanna download origin again for this beta 😄

[stable plank]

try steam

[white wing]

Steam need origin still

[zealous stag]

but i kinda wanna use my ea play which i got just for this

[errant saddle]

I think you would have to go through origins or steam depending on where you got the game

[zealous stag]

allright thx for the fast answer

[drowsy pine]

Battlefield discord 🤤

[errant saddle]

On some games it does

[pseudo wren]

@narrow sentinel

[white wing]

Yes for battlefield

[narrow sentinel]

@pseudo wren

[errant saddle]

I probably won't be able to sleep tonight I'm so excited for the beta

[low arrow]

I second that

[errant saddle]

Lol I just got to find something to stream till then

[low arrow]

Even tho I have college in the mornings 😭

[errant saddle]

Oof

Energy drinks time

[pine berry]

Hi

[gentle bear]

Do i gotta either preorder the Gold edition of 2042 or Get Ea Play/access for early access?

[worthy lake]

will bf2042 come to origin access ?

ea play pro?

[errant saddle]

For console standard gets access to it as well but for PC gold or ultimate or get ea play, pro lets you play the game at release and the beta so it's up to you

[errant saddle]

From what I was told ea pro will be able to play it on release date, don't know if it's true or not though

[fiery moon]

hi guys

[worthy lake]

pc but thanks sir

[gentle bear]

hmm idk yet ill check

[fiery moon]

bf 4 is on sale, should i buy it?

[zealous stag]

but be aware that the download through origin and ea desktop is not working properly at the moment

[gentle bear]

can someone fact check the EA Access Pro thing?

[low arrow]

i can think can even get the standard one just before you preordered check it’ll says early access

[zealous stag]

pretty much every new EA release is included from Day One in Ea Play PRO

[errant saddle]

If it is the premium then I say yes cause it's always worth having all the DLC for the game

[low arrow]

[stable plank]

if you played it before sure, if not you should get used to getting killed by a lot of attack helis and tanks

[errant saddle]

This is true too lol

[golden walrus]

slowmode here too?

[gentle bear]

I mean but i should be able to play the Early access Part of the 2042 beta right? if i buy EA play Pro?

[fiery moon]

don’t care about that, but multiplayer is still alive right?

[stable plank]

i got bf4 on pc like 6 months ago but i used to play it on ps3 so i knew the drill

[bronze gazelle]

bro

[hollow pulsar]

I remember playing on a custom server in shanghai map and this dude gets a 91 kill bomb without dying on a heli

[stable plank]

its very alive yes(as long as you use the server browser)

[bronze gazelle]

ps3 bf4 was so much fun

[zealous stag]

correct, but you just need the Normal EA Play not Pro to get early acces tomorrow^^

[fiery moon]

i’m in asia btw

[bronze gazelle]

and bf3 ps3 was amazing

[stable plank]

oh well there are full servers but not a lot

[fiery moon]

man...

[stable plank]

usually asian servers are the msot fun tho

[errant saddle]

Lol I remember when tanks used to run from me when I played engineer

[bronze gazelle]

oof when you don't have good enough gpu to run bf 2042 beta

literally launched it and it crashed cause not enough vram lol

[errant saddle]

Yea I know, I hope my PC can run it

[bronze gazelle]

yeah its all good just gotta reinstall my 1660 ti

[zealous stag]

i feel you, hope my gtx970 will be enough, which one are u using?

[bronze gazelle]

Im using gtx 960... you'll be fine

[blissful swallow]

[bronze gazelle]

gtx 960 only got 2gb vram

[errant saddle]

Let me know how that goes bruh, I have the same card in my laptop

[fresh cradle]

[gentle bear]

I dont see it on EA play though ?

[fiery moon]

so it’s still worth buying?

[zealous stag]

yeah its bugged at the moment from what i know and is not showing up correctly

[twilit kettle]

its not on ea play, you need to go to origin

[stable plank]

depends, is it 10$ with premium included? hell yes

[zealous stag]

is it allowed to post links in here?

[errant saddle]

If you scroll up, someone posted a link to the beta through the ea

[bronze gazelle]

oh i t actually ran

[twilit kettle]

i posted all links but the bot didnt like it, theyre linked in #894897791812390942

[bronze gazelle]

first time it crashed tho

[zealous stag]

i mean its a link from ea forums so...

[twilit kettle]

yeah but the bot doesnt care if you spam links

[errant saddle]

Nightmare posted one in here that stayed so I don't know

[twilit kettle]

yeah a couple is fine but too many and the bot will automute

[zealous stag]

better not risk it 😄

[errant saddle]

Oof

[fiery moon]

lol, it’s 5$ here

[stable plank]

even better

[fiery moon]

hmm, ill consider that

now for my specs, i have r7 3750u, gtx 1650ti

[stable plank]

lol it will run max graphics dont worry

[blissful swallow]

[snow flame]

will there be any reward for playing te beta?

[fiery moon]

ok then

[plucky nymph]

K

[stable plank]

i get 60 fps with my 4gb 1650 soo

[zealous stag]

maybe some kind of dogtag, like BFV

[fiery moon]

but it’s an r7 3750h

[stable plank]

a special emblem probably?

[snow flame]

okay hope so

[fiery moon]

anyway, for 10$ i can get bf1,5,4

not sure but i don’t have enough money

[blissful swallow]

i have bf5 4times on 1 account

[fiery moon]

lend me one

[calm adder]

guys the beta ends on 10 october? i'm in italy

[stable plank]

bf1 and bf4 are a must

[stable plank]

yeah its basically 2 days

[gentle bear]

I thought the beta ends on the 8th?

[twilit kettle]

starts on 8th as open beta

[finite gull]

The beta starts tomorrow for pre-order players

[stable plank]

depends on timezone

[lofty lodge]

wow

[errant saddle]

It's possible they might extend the beta since the game doesn't come out till November 19th

[errant saddle]

Open beta starts on the 8th

[zealous stag]

@gentle bear i can download the open beta through Ea desktop with normal ea play in this moment

[stable plank]

that would be too good to be true

[finite gull]

I’m downloading the beta rn on my Xbox

[fiery moon]

yeah but... if that so i’d have to refund mgs 5...

[errant saddle]

Let's hope then cause I feel that the beta even with early access is too short to test much

[steady jungle]

Is the bf2042 free to play?

[zealous stag]

the game or beta?

[crystal thorn]

so if i dont have ea play and i did not pre order the game can i still play the beta ?

[steady jungle]

Or only for pre ordered buyers

[errant saddle]

The beta or full game?

[steady jungle]

Beta

[calm adder]

ok the full date is from 6 to 9?

[errant saddle]

Yea

[stable plank]

a lot can happen in a battlefield match in 2 minutes 👍

[zealous stag]

yes, on the 8th at 7 UTC

[steady jungle]

Noice

[crystal thorn]

thanks

[errant saddle]

I don't know if it's gonna be available for everyone outside of pre orders and ea play though

[zealous stag]

starting on the 8th at 7 UTC

[calm adder]

can we play tomorrow or this evening at midnight?

[steady jungle]

My only request to them is just be more hacker free

[zealous stag]

yes its an open beta from the 8th onwards, everyone can get in

[chrome wolf]

Tbh I think bf1 mainly focuses on the horrors of world war 1 while bf5 focuses on interesting gameplay mechanics

[errant saddle]

Oh ok so early access is for pre order or ea play

[steady jungle]

I think it's for everyone,cause I went to the steam store page and clicked on the invite to beta,now it's saying I'm invited

[zealous stag]

correct

[stable plank]

what? isnt it open for a reason?

[steady jungle]

Not 6th?

[zealous stag]

the 6th is for preorders and EA Play members

[errant saddle]

Sometimes beta testing can be for pre orders only, cod did that, even with open beta

[zealous stag]

tbh its really unnecessary complicated with preload, early access and open access..

[stable plank]

but then why can everyone preload it

[steady jungle]

Hope they change the anti cheat engine, I own BF4 to bf5 , but hated it to the core due to the takeover of invisible hackers almost every match

[craggy steppe]

If i purchase now will I be able to play tomorrow?

[steady jungle]

Oh k , noted!

[zealous stag]

yes and you should be able to cancel the preorder after the beta^^

[sharp swan]

Data miners and hackers have already bypassed easy anti cheat for the beta, is this true?

[errant saddle]

Idk

But if they get banned they won't be back in

[steady jungle]

I think so, cause till now they are taking over the game

[odd viper]

hello america

[zealous stag]

there were reports of cheats being already sold for the game

[sharp swan]

This hurts tbh

[stable plank]

i thought only creators played the closed beta?

[errant saddle]

Content creators?

[steady jungle]

Yeah, I'm playing in asian servers , this is literally a hackerfest

[sharp swan]

Specially on PC I had to refund BFV due to hackers ruining the SEA server

[zealous stag]

thats awful, lets hope (why am i even saying that :D) that it gets better

probably wont be better

[stable plank]

yeah

[steady jungle]

I can feel the pain 🥲

[stable plank]

they played like 2 hours of the beta yesterday or today i forgot

[sharp swan]

I hoped EA Dice would take strict action by deploying kernel level anti cheat much like Valorant

[steady jungle]

They should! I think they're using the fortnite anti cheat engine

[dense torrent]

@calm adder hi, nice R logo u got there hehehe

[errant saddle]

That's the first I heard of it, I'm a content creator and never got anything about it and I played closed beta to 4,1 and 5

[fiery moon]

No, VACation is better 🐧

[swift eagle]

easy anti-cheat? more like easy to-cheat apparently

[calm adder]

hahaah thanks, your seem fine too

[tender anchor]

damn i have all the other pc components just top tier but gpu..

[stable plank]

its closed under an NDA and only popular guys got to play it i guess

[errant saddle]

Probably youtubers

[dense torrent]

thanks! I stole it from google images xD

[sharp swan]

The future of BF will depend on how serious is EA on anti cheat policy

[stable plank]

i mean EAC is very good in war thunder but idk about how it will work in battlefield

[sharp swan]

Here is to hope

[errant saddle]

I forgot war Thunder uses it

[steady jungle]

That's the major caviat

[tender anchor]

easy anticheat should be proven pretty good

[celest lark]

.

[sharp swan]

Since most of us I believe will be playing on PC/Steam

[calm adder]

ahaha mine is created from scratch

[errant saddle]

I'm not able to get it to install via steam

[stable plank]

i think you can

[sharp swan]

Hope so bruh

[tender anchor]

i don't even get to play since of my gpu being so shit, bet it would stutter like hell

[errant saddle]

It's not showing available for me and I have the ultimate edition

[zealous stag]

i feel you, my gtx 970 is about to take on its biggest challenge 😄

[dense torrent]

hehe nice

[glossy relic]

nice

[swift eagle]

why cant i get in it saying i have to preorder which i did

[tender anchor]

i believe your gpu is only 2% better in perfomance than my r9 380

[zealous stag]

have you chekcked the store page?
there should be an extra button for the beta i believe

[glossy relic]

that message is going away tomorrow

[tender anchor]

i've ordered a rx 6700 xt but i don't believe i'll see it coming

i'll get to wait 6 months

[errant saddle]

Yea shid helped me with it, I got it now

[swift eagle]

aint people playing now though? i bought the highest edition

[tribal prairie]

/when

[zealous stag]

Nice

[errant saddle]

Not pre load is today, beta early access is tomorrow

[zealous stag]

no, we are just preloading right now 😄 start is tomorrow morning 😉

[swift eagle]

ohhhhh its the preload nvm

[nimble hemlock]

so if i get ea play on steam do i still get early access to the beta?

[swift eagle]

am dumb just got off work am tired

[zealous stag]

yes, you should

[solid hinge]

yup

[odd viper]

hi guys , the early acces beta start at 06.00 utc?

[nimble hemlock]

yeah i know i should because its still ea play but im caution of tom foolery

[sharp swan]

I hope it can run decent on my 3900X and 2060S

[dense torrent]

free beta players can download now too?

[drowsy pine]

No

[dense torrent]

so when free players can start downloading?

[odd viper]

yes i think

[dense torrent]

ah ok, I will just check that

[solid hinge]

I be praying my 1650 with ddr3 memory can run it

[odd viper]

i dl it this morning

[solid hinge]

Btw who played the previous titles with dx12?

[sharp swan]

Will turn off RTX on my 2060S and play it on max settings

[nimble hemlock]

ok so i am downloading on steam so if anyone wanted confirmation seems like ea play on steam does 100% give you early access

[errant saddle]

If its the 4GB and not the 6GB card then I'm sorry but your prayers won't be answered with anything good

[zealous stag]

thx for that information 🙂

[calm adder]

from 7 october

[errant saddle]

You mean non pre orders and ea play players?

If so then it's the 8th not the 7th

[empty socket]

Why can't I preload the game on steam?

[dense torrent]

is BF4 playerbase still in good shape? is start playing that game right now good idea?

[errant saddle]

Go to store page and request access

[stable plank]

you and me brother, lets hope for those medium graphics

[dense torrent]

oh thx

[empty socket]

thx

[zealous stag]

i never had problems the past months to find a server on EU, but some Gamemodes are just dead. Oh and be aware that playercounts in the server browser are often not true

[solid hinge]

Where do you request access?

[stable plank]

64 player obliteration best gamemode cant change my mind

[sharp swan]

My only concern for now are the cheaters in the BETA and eventually game

[glossy relic]

a friend of mine bought a early acces code and there was mentioned he could play tomorrow

[errant saddle]

the battlefield 2042 store page on steam

[stuck kelp]

i hope there wont be so many cheaters in 2042

[solid hinge]

maybe not with anti cheat

[errant saddle]

early access? yes tomorrow

[glossy relic]

yes

[gentle bear]

hey bro can i dm you real quick?

[sharp swan]

They should have gone with kernel level anti cheat

[zealous stag]

ok let me enable dms real quick

[mellow walrus]

oups wrong comment

[glossy relic]

he said we will see if it works

[solid hinge]

Yes I am on there, I subscribed to EA Play on steam. Trying to find where to preload the beta as we speak

[glossy relic]

np dude

[stable plank]

nah you can find early access codes for like 5 dollars on the web, my friend played cod vanguard beta for 50cents or smth

[sharp swan]

What is the install size on steam for the BETA?

[solid hinge]

Ignore me, found it.

[mellow walrus]

he BOUGHT early access CODE? sounds like your friend got scamed. you get early access by buying game...

[solid hinge]

19.6GB is what it just showed me now.

[errant saddle]

Should be at the bottom below the editions you can buy

[stable plank]

nah you can find early access codes for like 5 dollars on the web, my friend played cod vanguard beta for 50cents or smth

[icy barn]

I have a question

[mellow walrus]

[icy barn]

Is the open beta in the Microsoft store?

[mellow walrus]

i duno. i feel very sceptical but there are all kinds of purchases on web...

[stable plank]

no offense but who in gods name uses Microsoft store

[icy barn]

Sorry but me cause I’m on xbox and I’d love to play the open beta

[stable plank]

you can find them on eneba and sites like that

[solid hinge]

ryzen 3 2200g gtx 1050ti can run 1080 low?

[stable plank]

youtu.be/2ELJjgkI_KQ

[mellow walrus]

sounds like - pay 5$ for a 30% chance to get a valid code...

[stable plank]

yeah kinda:)))

[winged merlin]

Hey guys can i ask something ? 🙂

[icy barn]

It won’t let me click on the link @stable plank

[solid hinge]

Why would you buy a code anyway? Buy EA Play for 3.99. 1 month access to all their games on the list + beta....

[ebon torrent]

Yeah, should appear in Game demos

[stable plank]

paste it in browser

[icy barn]

How do I do that??

[stable plank]

i cant post links here

[ebon torrent]

Microsoft store, games tab then go down till you see game demos

[icy barn]

Ahh thanks mate

[winged merlin]

i delivered the game on Amazon for Origin as a Code but i wonder how i play early access without any code .. they didnt sent me anything to this day

[stable plank]

they should've sent you an email i think

[winged merlin]

oh it came right now XD

in this sek hahaha thanks anyway 🙂

[mellow thunder]

is anyone else getting a barcode prompt when they open the beta

[low arrow]

I hear the anti cheat is good fortnite and other games uses it

[sour smelt]

Yeq it’s probably the best anti- cheat on the market right now for any game

[stable plank]

yeah i havent encountered a cheater in war thunder yet (it uses eac aswell)

[queen canopy]

Can't wait to get false reported by salty players

[stable plank]

the beta didn't start yet, you can start playing when its open

[queen canopy]

Wait what the 15 second slowmode?

[mellow thunder]

did you get the barcode thing too?

[sour smelt]

If anyone hacks and gets caught knowing how strict EAC is, frorfnite does hardware ip bans

[stable plank]

everyone did

[mellow thunder]

bc i payed 5 bucks for ea play and im trying to be sure

okay good

[stable plank]

the beta didnt start yet you cant access it

[icy barn]

Thanks soooo much @ebon torrent I found it

[ebon torrent]

👍

[lost pond]

Anyone else can’t play because of their drivers?

[stable plank]

just update them

[mellow thunder]

you have to update your driver bud

[lost pond]

Can’t lmao

[noble basin]

Open up geforce experience

[cursive wind]

F

[low arrow]

it’s good that battlefield is looking out for the gamers who don’t cheat and just wanna have a positive attitude and community 💯

[mellow thunder]

follow the link and look for the game ready one

[lost pond]

No

[stable plank]

its about time lol)))

[lost pond]

Amd doesn’t support older cards anymore so we can’t get the new drivers that battlefield wants us to get real shame tbh

[stable plank]

if you use nvidia just open geforce experience and download gameready driver

[earnest vector]

is anyone else having the same issue where beta is not showing up on origin or is everyone having the same issue?

[mellow thunder]

Countdown until mw dies: 17 hours

[noble basin]

Lol

[stable plank]

oh... well i cant help you with amd i dont use an amd gpu

[lost pond]

All goods thanks anyways

[stable plank]

try steam

[earnest vector]

didn't pre-order on steam

[noble basin]

Honestly i just burnt myself out on MW so CW is looking kinda good right now.

[low arrow]

Where did you preorder?

[earnest vector]

origin

[stable plank]

youtu.be/2ELJjgkI_KQ just watch this it should help you out

[mellow thunder]

ea and orgin are co-dependent so you need both installed

[tropic condor]

Does anyone know how to link accounts on EA? I can only see my steam one linked and no option to link any others

[mellow thunder]

What launcher did you pre order on

[tropic condor]

Steam. But I found out there is cross progression and I would rather play on ps

So I need to need to link them 😦

[mellow thunder]

so you need to link your steam with console? i have no clue bud

[mellow thunder]

i would suggest steam being linked with ea but idk how that transfers to ps

[blissful swallow]

google helps: "how to link ps4 account with origin"

[mellow thunder]

pretty sure there is a yt vid on it too

[earnest vector]

it's weird how you need to go to web browser to add the beta onto origin

[idle magnet]

When is preload available ?

[cloud meadow]

Hello everyone, does play membership include battlefield 2042?

[mellow thunder]

been available

[tropic condor]

Thanks for your input 😛 But Google was not helpful

[solid hinge]

When I decide so

[mellow thunder]

try reddit

[tropic condor]

I already searched

[polar sinew]

If I preordered on PS4, will I get early access for the PS5 beta?
(And yes, I am trying to cancel my PS4 preorder so I can preorder for PS5, but sony are pricks and havent responded in a week)

[mellow thunder]

Damnn

you cant refund a preorder for the most part

[tropic condor]

It can't be this difficult. It's telling me to use this and sign into this page. IDK

[polar sinew]

PlayStation Store refunds can be issued for pre-ordered content, as long as the request is made before the release date, or within 14 days of purchase

[cloud meadow]

Hello everyone, does play membership include battlefield 2042?

[mellow thunder]

Lucky

[rigid silo]

It's confusing the Battlefield site mentioned EA Play Pro, but on Origin there seems to be no way to add to the library besides a trial.

[cloud meadow]

Hmm

[blissful swallow]

"HOW TO LINK PLATFORM ACCOUNTS TO EA
On your platform
Open one of our games on your PlayStation®️, Xbox, or Switch.
Some games ask you to log in at the start, while others prompt you to sign into EA servers when you try to access online modes.
Enter the email address and password for your primary EA Account when you’re asked to log in.
Once you’ve signed in, your accounts will be linked."

[rigid silo]

You'll be able to take part in the open beta regardless, i'd say hold off on the membership until they clarify. I have a EA Play Pro account and feel cheated.

I already have another free EA Play account via Gamepass. I'll just cancel my Play Pro membership if they don't add new games like this.

[mellow thunder]

they rarely do. ea's catalog has been the same since forever

[tropic condor]

Ye that don't work. Already seen that

[mellow thunder]

except for fifa and madden

[blissful swallow]

oof

[tropic condor]

Big sad

[fluid void]

if I pre order now via amazon, do they send out the early access code today/tomorrow? or is it to late for that

[solid hinge]

[cloud meadow]

Ok EA play pro subs will get an early access AND. Full game after october 15. Ea play regular subs will get an early access AND 10Hrs of trial.
Ea play pro cost 14.99 a months or 99.99 a year

[blissful swallow]

or you just buy the game full price

[rigid silo]

Gotcha, thank you

[rigid silo]

I already pay $99/year - not gonna pay more than needed bub.

[sour kettle]

I'm on Xbox anyone know of I can download early access and how because I heard if you had game pass you can have it early

[noble basin]

EA play regular is definitely worth it just for the month you buy the game. You save a £.

[mellow thunder]

xbox game pass or ea play works i think

same shit

[rigid silo]

Yeah lol

[sour kettle]

When I go to early access it doesn't have a install thing on it

Had anyone with gamepass been able to install it

[fossil scroll]

I have @sour kettle, just go to the ea play section in your library on Xbox

[fluid void]

or you can just pre order the game from amazon, and if you dont like it just cancel the pre order. Amazon only charges you when they actually ship the product, so its pretty much a free key

[low arrow]

I need to definitely download then beta today before it’s gets to late ⏰

[blissful swallow]

it's only 17.7gb

[rigid phoenix]

When do I get the 10 hours on the trial tho?

[fluid void]

probably 4-5 days pre release

[rigid phoenix]

Thank you

[ornate yarrow]

gonna launch the open beta on Linux

it probably will work well, but EAC is likely to be borked

[noble basin]

17.69gb nice

[tribal goblet]

Hey guys, got a question, do we receive our beta code when the starts, or after a while once you installed bf2042

[fluid void]

@ornate yarrowSomeone texted BF via Wine, wont work cause EAC

[ornate yarrow]

fair

[fluid void]

EAC terminates the process

[ornate yarrow]

no, EAC just doesn't work without having Wine support actually enabled

EAC does support Wine itself, though

[tribal goblet]

Did any of you lads get a activation code yet

[ornate yarrow]

welp

[white warren]

Anyone knows how to stop Origin from downloading the Beta on Steam?

[ornate yarrow]

there is no Wine support for the EAC build that Battlefield 2042 is using

i have pre order the game but its showing me the QR code, is it because its not release yet ?

[final star]

bingo

[chilly pilot]

anyone else just plays on low in all their games

[blissful swallow]

no

[stable plank]

performance over graphics

[blissful swallow]

depends on the game

[gray tapir]

only in extremely comp games

mainly rust

[earnest vector]

almost done dl the beta

18gb not bad

[night stone]

Imagine if they launched it early.

[tribal marlin]

You guys see the Beta in Origin store?

I cant download it

[earnest vector]

I had to add the beta to origin through web browser

[zenith perch]

Looks like early access will go live 3 am est. Which means in half an hour we should start seeing gameplay from new Zealand

[queen canopy]

....no?

[compact badger]

its 9am on the east coast right now so

[zenith perch]

3 am of the 6th

[compact badger]

its the 5th here

🗿

[zenith perch]

New Zealand is a day ahead

[blissful swallow]

nobody cares

[queen canopy]

That doesn't mean they get the beta a day early

[earnest vector]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csc0hbgV830 try this tutorial on how to add beta

[queen canopy]

The start times are universal, so new zealand has their own time that corresponds with 3AM on the East Coast

[compact badger]

lucky dudes get to see how crappy the new year is a day before we do

[tribal marlin]

Thx @earnest vector

[zenith perch]

So going to try the same things today

[blissful swallow]

it won't work

[zenith perch]

Worked for hell let loose 🤷🏼‍♂️

I'll keep you updated lol

[compact badger]

just set the console calendar to Christmas, so you can get the santa npc- wait wrong game nvm

[civic perch]

REAL quick question I preordered where do I download????

Steam btw^^^

[compact badger]

go to the games page on steam, pre load should be there

[civic perch]

Oh ok thank you! How does steam know if I get EA or not?

Would it check for the game I’m guessing??

[wispy jungle]

whats the easiest way to get the "kill an enemy tank on foot" assignment? ive been trying so hard but i just cant

[blissful swallow]

it will download ea and force you to log in

[civic perch]

Yeah I’m already logged in no worries I already know origin is garbage

[compact badger]

what game you trying to do it on

[wispy jungle]

battlefield v, i believe its the only one that has assignments? maybe bf1 aswell idk though

[queen canopy]

BFV and BF1 both have assignments, but they're very different

[compact badger]

oh good luck lol, I usually have a friend help me damage it first with a tank then i go in to finish it

[wispy jungle]

i dont have friends though 😐

[compact badger]

got it once by chance cause they rolled up right next to where i was hiding from it

[compact badger]

well shit gimme a few and i can help lol, got 5 installed

[solid hinge]

@wispy jungle y u doing assignments in a dead game

[wispy jungle]

ill do it myself, i think im pretty, good, i was just curious to as what mode was best for it,

[compact badger]

any Conquest esk mode, easily

[wispy jungle]

ive been playing breakthrough but i assume conquest would be easier since i can sneak up on tanks

[compact badger]

it also depends what map youre playing on, cause some are more CQC than others

[wispy jungle]

maybe one of the pacific ones? i think that would probably be best

[zenith beacon]

On what day can I enter the beta?

[compact badger]

I've done it on the map with the huge bridge, get alot of my armor kills on that map

[civic perch]

FYI everyone being positive about the game is key. These devs worked hard on this for years and covid has most definitely impacted them so any bugs or anything report it dont complain js :p

[ivory grotto]

i think the quick match feature should've been deleted years ago
so many players end up in empty servers because of it
like... server browser already exists

[wispy jungle]

ive learnt from the previous battlefield games to always use the server browser

[compact badger]

^

in battlefield 4 it was basically essential you use the browser

[solid hinge]

I will complain

[zenith perch]

Tomorrow. The 6th

[solid hinge]

I always do...not my problem who worked hard

[zenith beacon]

okey thanks

[solid hinge]

If u work hard but fail to write good exam don't ur teachers fail u...or they give u marks for hard work

everyone works hard , result is what matters

[zenith perch]

What's everyone's thoughts on battlefield portal

[civic perch]

That is a terrible resemblance tf coding a game is 100x harder then a essay? Try and fill their shoes and how hard they are working

[zenith beacon]

its fantastic

[civic perch]

Love the concept tbh

[solid hinge]

@civic perch it's their job .9-5

[zenith beacon]

its a really original and god idea

[civic perch]

Yeah and it’s not always easy. Just because it’s their job never means it’s easy

[zenith perch]

Ya I'm pretty excited to see what the community comes up with

[solid hinge]

Go play cyberpunk...they worked 10 years on it

[civic perch]

I have and I’ve seen it and played it had its quirks but the story was good…..

[wispy jungle]

probably just me, but i dont really like it, it seems like a feature that will be put in the game and abandoned, kind of like a sandbox mode for battleifeld

[zenith perch]

If portal works the way they say it will there will be unlimited ways to play

[civic perch]

Portal is community ran if the community stays with it it’ll be fun. @wispy jungle

[zenith beacon]

On what platform will you play the beta?

[solid hinge]

People buy games if they are good and bug free , not because someone worked hard

[zenith perch]

@wispy jungle that's one of the things I'm excited for. Just random sandbox fun

[solid hinge]

HOW DO I GET MY CODES ?

[civic perch]

No game is ever bug free

[zenith perch]

We will see how it works out.

[wispy jungle]

great, didnt expect that

[civic perch]

It’s literally a sandbox mode with the community making gamemodes

Ovb will prob have official servers

[solid hinge]

@zenith perch

errp

[zenith perch]

Just think. You could make anything from a one life hardcore rush mode like insurgency. Or you could make a 128 player free for all. Haha

[thorny hollow]

Portal is not entirely community run. The devs put a ton of effort into it and there will be playlists made by the devs. Even if the community never makes anything with it it will be a fantastic mode with lots of content

[civic perch]

That’s what I meant to say

[zenith perch]

@thorny hollow ya pretty excited about it

[wispy jungle]

i personally havent encountered many bugs in bfv,expect getting a bit stuck on the spawn menu, but thats more on the part that they made the spawning system mediocre

[zenith perch]

Bf said they fixed people not being able to get the beta

[little hatch]

Is the Beta any good?

[zenith perch]

@little hatch can't play yet

[wispy jungle]

portal will be very interesting if they also add some soldiers that pre-date firearms, would be interesting to have the option to play knights, or spartans, or similiar, dont know of any games like that that have good player control,

[zenith perch]

@wispy jungle I think we will just see from WW1 and on

@wispy jungle but who knows they may add crazy stuff later on

[little hatch]

Portal will be pretty good as long as they keep updating it... You think they will announce Hazard Zone today?

[zenith perch]

@little hatch that would be nice

[wispy jungle]

thats a shame, but it makes sense if they do keep it ww1 and on,

[fickle glacier]

Guys if I pre order the game with steam can I have access to the Early beta?

[zenith perch]

Five minutes until beta should go live in new Zealand

[little hatch]

I am going to sub for 1 month of EA play

[zenith perch]

@little hatch with Xbox ultimate you get game pass and ea play included it's pretty awesome

[little hatch]

5$ demo XD

[fickle glacier]

I am getting a message saying I need preorder or be a EA subscriber

[zenith perch]

Ya the qr code comes up for everyone

[little hatch]

wait so people will be streaming the game in 5 mins?

[zenith perch]

https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion-Feedback/Battlefield-2042-Open-Beta-Preload-Now-Available/m-p/10801171#M341

@little hatch if it works out the way I think it will

[little hatch]

would be weird to release by region I think

[zenith perch]

It's the 6th there now

[little hatch]

everyone going to VPN to unlock it early then

[steady island]

@zenith perch on the map of worldwide it says 7 utc

[acoustic socket]

Hey does anyone know how I'm supposed to play the early access? I pre ordered it on steam

[zenith perch]

@steady island which is 3am new Zealand time

[little hatch]

Butcher so tell us if you able to play now

[steady island]

All you do on xbox@change time and location and it works for when the game is coming@out get it like@day early I did it with cod and stuff

[zenith perch]

Went from the qr code to servers down.

So something's happening

[little hatch]

I mean I can wait for tomorrow either way.. but if people can play now.. I atleast wanna watch people on livestream XD

[zenith perch]

If I get it working I'll fire up my twitch and stream it lol

[steady island]

It won’t be on till 7am utc it’s global time it’s not like@when game actually comes out so for me it’s 8am in morning uk time so if it’s 3 in morning for someone somewhere then that’s unlucky you either stay up late for it or wake up next day to play it

[quartz schooner]

I have to work a 13 hr shift tonight and the beta goes live while Im at work 😦

[solid hinge]

L

[modern cipher]

hi guys, does anyone knows why i cant dl the beta ? Even when pressing "try it first" it doesnt shows in my library ...

[quartz schooner]

I get home 2 hrs after it comes out tho

[zenith perch]

@steady island 7 am utc is 3 am est. And new Zealand is 24 hours ahead of eat. So we'll see. Nothing yet

[steady island]

Yeah so witch mean the beta will come@out day later in new Zealand

[zenith perch]

@steady island a day earlier. It's already the 6th there

Maybe it will come out at 7am their time

[solid hinge]

I’m pretty sure it comes out on the 7th for them

[steady island]

I get were your coming from but this is global time for everyone a button will be pressed at 7am utc and what ever time that that is in what ever time zone that will be the time for each tome@zone it comes out

[solid hinge]

Iirc the time zones are all aligned so you can’t change your location to play early

[solid iris]

^
its all the same across

[solid hinge]

That’s what I thought

That’s the best way to do it

[steady island]

Yeah can only change time to play game when it launches so day before this game is officially out you be able@to change to New Zealand and play it early but beta is a global time going live 7am utc all over the world

[solid hinge]

I’m so fucking excited for this game

I think this will be the first good shooter in like years tbh. As long as there isn’t aggressive SBMM I’m gonna play 5k hours easy

[zenith perch]

Ya me too. We'll wait and see. I'm going to stay on top of it and will let you guys know when I get in

@solid hinge you should try hell let loose or insurgency too.

[steady island]

@zenith perch when do you think you be able@to play it like how many hours from now

[solid hinge]

Yeah I’m heading to sleep now and I’m gonna wake up an hour before the beta drop so I can shower and stuff because I called off work and everything

[zenith perch]

@steady island well hopefully soon. And if then hoping in four hours when it's 7am their time

[solid hinge]

You on PC?

Will I get bf2042 for free if I subscribe to EA Play or just a discount?

[zenith perch]

@solid hinge xsx

[solid hinge]

Oooooh sweet

[steady island]

What time is it in New Zealand

[zenith perch]

@steady island 3am on the 6th

[solid hinge]

I think I’m gonna buy a SX soon just because I have so many friends in it
