battlefield-2042

[arctic grove]

what i ment with player count is that server are capable of having more players

than in 2042

[next onyx]

Quick back track there.

[arctic grove]

i think it was 200 on battlebit

[fiery shoal]

what you said was "bf clones" which.. there are none

[hexed mango]

2042 is capable of having more players because its on more platforms 👀

[next onyx]

Anything beyond 64p is shit anyways.

[quick egret]

200???

[next onyx]

Seriously. 128p+ is awful for gameplay.

[hidden sand]

How many players would be on a single battlebit server was dumb

[quick egret]

32v32 and 16v16 is simply easier to control

[hidden sand]

It was unplayable, spawn and die simulator

[fiery shoal]

ehh, i feel like player count could work as long as pacing is done right, but i dont see a reason going above 64p myself

[edgy oriole]

11 kills and i retire mcdaddy forever

[arctic grove]

https://store.steampowered.com/app/671860/BattleBit_Remastered/

[next onyx]

Yeah. 64 and 32 are simpler.

[hexed mango]

hehehehaw

[arctic grove]

"BattleBit Remastered is a low poly FPS that aims for a massively multiplayer experience with up to 254 players in a single server. Fight on a large battlefield with ground vehicles, boats, and *air support. Create your own strategies to win in a near-fully destructible map. "

[hexed mango]

128 is just more fun

[next onyx]

64p is dices bread and butter and they should keep to it.

[edgy oriole]

64 too ez and boring

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/wMl9.gif

[next onyx]

I can't have fun when you can't do anything about the large volume of players. It gets tiring very fast after a while.

[arctic grove]

battlebit
does everything better than current bf
runs on unity which is known to be "asset flip simulator"

[quick egret]

64 is good when the maps are made for them

[hidden sand]

Designing a map to accomdate 128 players takes significantly more work, playtesting, etc and the chances of those maps being worse and lesser in amount is much higher that way, too.

[next onyx]

Hey echo you been using the SCAR?

[hexed mango]

yes i have

[edgy oriole]

nah i got a taste of 128 and i wont enjoy 64 ever like i did 128

[hexed mango]

pretty nice, but i havent 100% gotten the hang of it

[quick egret]

Like the 128 player map design was such a mistake

[fiery shoal]

">does everything better than current bf"

those graphics though (which included lighting, texture, poly count, etc), that sound design though, the animations though..

[next onyx]

It takes a bit to get used to it.

[fiery shoal]

stop lying to yourself

[next onyx]

Don't bother with the arcom muzzle brake.

[hexed mango]

it is fun though, a quality gun

[quick egret]

They just weren’t familiar with that scale I feel and fucked it all up

[hexed mango]

yeah i switched to something else

[next onyx]

Use the 6ku or even a standard barrel and im serious.

[fiery dawn]

Not only that, but Hazard Zone-influenced 128p maps

[hexed mango]

alr

[next onyx]

The gun controls alright and feels so good.

[fiery shoal]

imagine calling something a clone when it doesnt even look the same...

[arctic grove]

battlefields opts for realistic graphics
battlebit opts for minimalistic graphics

[next onyx]

Different scales.

[arctic grove]

but they try to do the same

[hexed mango]

operative word being try

[arctic grove]

its afterall "all out warfare"

[fiery shoal]

no they dont.. its literally in the description.. bf doesnt try to be a low poly anything...

[quick egret]

There is a single lobby with one guy in it prob

[arctic grove]

graphics != gameplay

[fiery shoal]

no one said that...

[next onyx]

Just have bots only in hazard zone for achievements easy.

[spare quest]

Still kinda weird how the attachments work in 2042, i saw a video yesterday which explained how they influence recoil. Good stuff

[hexed mango]

he's saying the maps were designed for hz, not talking about the hz mode >:)

[hexed mango]

fr

[next onyx]

Warhawk compensator gives it zero recoil.

It's kinda fucked.

[fiery shoal]

to call something a clone doesnt mean you only concern yourself with gameplay...

[fiery dawn]

I mean that the maps weren’t just designed with 128p AOW in mind, but also with HZ as a consideration. Which is another reason they feel shitty to play on in AOW and especially with only 64p

[quick egret]

Battlebit is causing waves only because this bf flopped and it’s undeniable

[serene adder]

my m5a3 is a lazerbeam

[hexed mango]

ye thats what i have on rn

[edgy oriole]

there is 5k games like battlebit on roblox. its nothing special

[hexed mango]

[next onyx]

Plus the fact the game was rushed, Rebel.

[quick egret]

Phantom forces of right here

[fiery dawn]

Agreed

[arctic grove]

and it shows that indie devs can do shit for cheaper price and better than triple a studios

[drowsy shuttle]

i agree.. i also prefer 128 players... but they definitely need to rework on the maps for that... maps too damn big

[next onyx]

It's very obvious the fact that this game was rushed and needed an extra year.

[fiery shoal]

even then its just a meme take to try to shit on 2042...

[hexed mango]

sfar is also one of the few guns that the canted sights work on lol

even tho i dont use them

[hidden sand]

Oh yeah totally, it absolutely wluld not have caught on had 2042 succeeded
The entire motivation behind people making videos on it was "wow these people did battlefield better than Battlefield"

[arctic grove]

again by playercount i meant max players on 1 server

[pine roost]

Battlebit was a lot of fun when I tried it out, more so than I was having in 2042 at the time. The visuals could at least use some ambient occlusion though.

[next onyx]

I don't like those canted sights. Just work with the fusion holo why the canted AHHHHHHH.

[fiery dawn]

Indie devs have to make their games good. It’s their livelihood. Triple A studios are already well established and are guaranteed profits if they push out a new title in a game series

[next onyx]

You won't get 200 players on your server if you don't have that many people playing in the first place.

[quick egret]

I’m just confused why destruction and levelution took a back seat on these never before seen scale maps

[hexed mango]

to be funny

[pine roost]

The vehicle gameplay though is a bit rough. Destruction is great. Sound design is a bit poor

[quick egret]

Too many eggs I guess

[arctic grove]

its not even released yet lmao

[fiery shoal]

im fully expecting battlebit to be more fun than 2042, granted tetris is also more fun than 2042.... that doesnt mean battlebit and 2042 are even close to the same, let alone a "clone"

[edgy oriole]

yesterday i played 1 hourglass match and all the buildings were pre destroyed it was lame.

[arctic grove]

if you understand german then have fun

" Diese Spiel ist noch nicht auf Steam verfügbar

[dapper river]

Did they get the BF3 RU soldier voice actor back to record new lines for portal? Never heard him say "Fuck, birds in the sky too? Motherfuckers..." 🤔

[quick egret]

Tetris connected is one of my top 5s

[next onyx]

I do have an idea. It's probably because of the rushed state of the game they designed the bare minimum and didn't add anything afterwards.

That kind of thing.

Yeah they do hund.

[fiery dawn]

happened to me before as well

[fiery shoal]

is that like a BR tetris?

[next onyx]

They'll say... goodbye in Russian.

Das davania or some shit.

[quick egret]

Rythm Tetris

[edgy oriole]

DA

[spare quest]

He would never say that, too offensive

[hidden sand]

I mean theres definitely a reason tanks, helis, at helis, the wildcat, are clones of their BF4 equivalents

[next onyx]

Das davania motherfucker.

That's what I can remember.

[hidden sand]

With no thought into actually balancing them

[spare quest]

Dasvidaniya

[next onyx]

I remembered it the best way I could.

[arctic grove]

Da

[fiery dawn]

Da Svidanya

[spare quest]

bf3 had the best voice lines

[fiery dawn]

lol

[fiery dawn]

thanks that’s it

[quick egret]

Hardline is the only competition to that

[spare quest]

yea

[next onyx]

It would be cool if they gave us those cosmetics for the 2042 soldiers.

[hidden sand]

Hardline had good takedowns too

[quick egret]

Fuck I miss hardline

[next onyx]

U.S assault for Mackay..

Hardline was good.

That had a lot of soul.

[spare quest]

I would buy the bot skins

[quick egret]

We should have enjoyed it while it was there

[hidden sand]

Was shocked to see nothing like that in the BP

[arctic grove]

Hardline is underrated

[quick egret]

Really took it all in while it was alive

[hidden sand]

Hardline should never had been advertised as a mainline game, just a spin off

[next onyx]

To be fair they probably want to sell something different Suika.

[quick egret]

Mackay should have had zip line grapple combo like from hardline

So he could help the team

In any way

That isn’t completely selfish

[arctic grove]

Basically 2042

[fiery dawn]

I’ve thought about that too. Make him Pathfinder from Apex lol

But then he might be op

[hidden sand]

That's def a problem that plagues 2042

[next onyx]

I don't mind him being what he is but he can be so easily be relied on.

[fiery dawn]

take away his Nimble passive I guess?

[hidden sand]

Overly selfish gadgets

[arctic grove]

feels like a spin off battlefield

[next onyx]

Assaults are selfish and I kinda don't care.

Easy straightforward operators anyone can play.

[fiery dawn]

Yeah that’s fair. They do their job by being good at assaulting

[arctic grove]

Engineers should automatically have repair tool only.

[next onyx]

I do think mackays nimble perk should be tuned. Faster mantling and zip line speed.

Weapon ads speed being a weapon perk instead.

[pine roost]

Speaking of this, the med pen is something I don’t really see having a reason to exist. It’s just one of those selfish gadgets

[arctic grove]

I dont want to have to choose between a repair tool or Rocket launcher

[next onyx]

It's really fun!

[fiery dawn]

Yeah, feels weird to start winning more 1v1 gunfights simply cause I switched to Mackay during the round lol

He shouldn’t just get a clear advantage in the 1v1’s as a character

[quick egret]

Med pen should be grenade replacer

And recharge still

[fiery dawn]

I like medpen

[hidden sand]

Warzone has it so they thought they needed to add it too

[quick egret]

I would never take it over m5

Not the way helis fly in my lobbies lol

[arctic grove]

Kill someone with the med dart gun

i was afk did i miss something?

[fiery dawn]

I like fighting hard and medpen let’s me get back in the fight faster

[pine roost]

But why not just keep the medpack and not bother with it, it only means they will be healing and can’t help anybody else out

[quick egret]

I don’t let them shoot me at all I’ve actually never been hit once

[fiery dawn]

Medpen heals you faster

[quick egret]

Seems like a skill issue

[edgy oriole]

bro discarded is making me so tilted today

[fiery dawn]

And when you throw down med crate and move forward you don’t have it anymore to heal another time

[next onyx]

I can't say I dislike the med pen. It's really helpful when you need that boost.

[quick egret]

64p discarded is painfully large

[fiery dawn]

You can use medpen multiple times while moving cover to cover and such

[next onyx]

I wish a and c were close.

[quick egret]

Like what 3 flags right in the middle and 2 little flags no one gives a shit shot

[arctic grove]

selfish gadget for game which "require" teamwork

[pine roost]

Sure it’s helpful, but I just find it strange that they made it one of those gadgets that can’t be used to help others out

[arctic grove]

wow

[next onyx]

The best games is when neither side cannot capture the ship.

So both sides constantly flip it.

[quick egret]

If medpen allowed anyone to revive

[pine roost]

That means even less people overall will have a healing gadget for their teammates

[drowsy shuttle]

they are only separated by 2cm .... huehuehuehue

[quick egret]

Because it’s the animation for bf3 portal

[next onyx]

Actually that'd be cool. If you could use your medpin for a discount squad revive but that'd be beyond your control.

I think the medpin is fine anyways. Same reason why you'd run anything for your own benefit.

[arctic grove]

painfully bad layout too

[quick egret]

Just a little something to add that little bit of team engagement

[hidden sand]

I just don't think the medpen should be in this game specifically. Really promotes selfish play with already very very selfish gadgets for specalist.

Medics should be the only ones healing themselves and others. It's a lot better imo when the gadget that can be used seflishly is also a very good team helper.

Assaults come mind.

[quick egret]

Like armor was a mistake when they changed angel they changed the meta

[hidden sand]

From BFV.

[pine roost]

So why would you choose the medpack over the pen?

[next onyx]

Throw into group, easy heals.

[drowsy shuttle]

i kinda agree with this...

[next onyx]

Medpen you can carry three of them and use another one right as you use one.

[quick egret]

I think angel should have kept the armor revive though maybe

[next onyx]

Nah.

Fuck armour.

[drowsy shuttle]

no way.. even with the nerf is the best specialist in the game.

[quick egret]

If there were more healers yes

[hidden sand]

Inconsistent ttks can fuck right off.

[quick egret]

And angel wasn’t to crutch

It would have been a good idea

It he’s too clutch

[pine roost]

I just dislike it given its selfish nature, no matter how useful it is

[next onyx]

Thing is. They choose that they can't do anything beyond it.

[pine roost]

But this tends towards another problem I’ve had for a while that there’s no point delving into

[arctic grove]

armour is okay. at the end you sacrifice usefull gadget for taking 1 more shoot

[quick egret]

Gadget restrictions are probably what they are putting all the operator rebalancing into the way Liz can’t pick m5

[arctic grove]

Warzone moment

[next onyx]

You choose what you want in this game anyways. I drop ammo crates into groups of people for points but it's mostly for myself.

[hidden sand]

Btw Way, I noticed you've mentioned using Falcks self heal before. Do you actually do that or do you just shoot it at the ground?

[next onyx]

Armour needs to fuck off from a multiplayer shooter that isn't a br.

[quick egret]

Yeah like In bf3 nothing stopped a whole team from playing medic

[next onyx]

I do both depending on the situation Suika.

[arctic grove]

bro its only 1 more bullet to shoot

[next onyx]

Depends how the hitreg is doing.

[quick egret]

Range too

[pine roost]

It makes all the difference

[next onyx]

One more bullet can change everything.

[arctic grove]

• you cant have ammo or medikit

[arctic grove]

not in fast paced shooters like bf

[next onyx]

Who cares if you can't use anything else if you can win gunfights with a bonus 20 health.

[quick egret]

I just die fuck ammo box I’m the only person in the lobby to shoot at an aircraft

[drowsy shuttle]

i actually can see them in the future nerfing the ammo pouches of angel somehow... cause he is still the most versatile specialist in the game... with angel you can carry c5 or other gadget cause you don't need to worry about ammo... and then on top of that you even can call the drop package that gives the ability to change loadout almost on the fly... not to mention it also refills all your ammo, c5, granades etc...

[foggy halo]

🤔

[next onyx]

I've won so many gunfights with 20 health left using armour it is unbelieably stupid.

[arctic grove]

good for you

[pine roost]

As well as health too

[next onyx]

Re do armour so it's a flak jacket. Easy.

No effect on gunfights. Keep it consistent.

The armour absorbs the explosion. Everyone's happy.

[cyan trout]

Probably do what they did with classes and limit how many people in the lobby can use certain specialists

[arctic grove]

okay that would be good

rebalance

[next onyx]

Plus environmental damage like fire, electricity, etc.

[pine roost]

I’d be happy with that

[arctic grove]

i would take that

[next onyx]

Make it productive.

[quick egret]

Ogs remember liquid nitrogen damage

[next onyx]

Oh God that was obnoxious.

It would get in the way of healing.

[hidden sand]

At that point remove it because if it takes up a gadget slot nobody would use it. Would work better if there was a customizable perk systemin place.

[quick egret]

Always in the building on orbital

[arctic grove]

🥶 god it was annoying

[next onyx]

Yeah dice isn't gonna remove it when they've added challenges and shit to it.

I like the gadgets like the medipen and that because they're pseudo gadgets.

Have it as a pseudo dozer passive or a pseudo falck pen.

[arctic grove]

"selfish gadget for game which "require" teamwork"

Eu console Lfg?

#lfg-crossplay

[spare quest]

the best gadget is the AA launcher

[arctic grove]

imo med pen doenst belong to battlefield

[edgy oriole]

[arctic grove]

soflam

[tame cobalt]

Lol

[spare quest]

what can i say, i love playing rao

[foggy halo]

😢

[hidden sand]

Speaking of removing things, I'm convinced they're not removing shit like the 50mm on transports because they're scared of losing players who enjoy it.

[arctic grove]

free spotting + others m5 turn into AA

[edgy oriole]

i gave up on AA day 2 of launch. never worked for me

[tame cobalt]

[spare quest]

you have to be lucky to have teammates who actually notice that someone is using the soflam

[hidden sand]

It wouldn't shock me.

[arctic grove]

yea agree

[tame cobalt]

Who's hyped for africa map in season 2? Predicted by me first

[arctic grove]

welcome to call of field 2042

[pine roost]

I doubt they’ll remove any weapons. Which means they’ve dug themselves so deep that many changes that I personally would love to see simply won’t happen

[spare quest]

it works great if you hack the vehicles first

[arctic grove]

"removing" classes turned battlefield into cod ground war

ngl

[tame cobalt]

No

Cope

[spare quest]

not into cod ground war but into a hero shooter

[edgy oriole]

it just never locks on. they couldve fixed it by now, but at this point id rather have m5 so i can actually shoot instead of seeing yellow lock on for 45 minutes.

[hexed mango]

skill issue?

[arctic grove]

yes since you dont need anyone bcs you can carry almost everything you want?

[tame cobalt]

No

[hardy crow]

I mean we already have a map in Africa

[hidden sand]

I'm not being too serious about that but meh. I wish they'd remove it, no reason for transports to have that much firepower.

[arctic grove]

Yup but i rather play 2042 cod than warzone

[hardy crow]

Well depending on where in Egypt Renewal is set

[tame cobalt]

[foggy halo]

Specialists are baseddd

[spare quest]

that sounds weird, i can't remember this problem

[pine roost]

My launchers locked on just fine

[hexed mango]

which map

[foggy halo]

They just need to make good looking specialists

[edgy oriole]

Mine never did. yellow lock on all day lol

[tame cobalt]

Renewal egypt

[hexed mango]

ah yes

[tame cobalt]

[pine roost]

If it was that long ago, it was mostly a bug

[tame cobalt]

If there's no pyramids, is it really egypt?

[hexed mango]

fr

[hidden sand]

Is the next map confirmed to be Africa?

[hexed mango]

no..?

[hidden sand]

Or was that just speculation from you.

[hardy crow]

Just speculation

[arctic grove]

remember these 2042 podcasts?

[hexed mango]

what about them

[tame cobalt]

No, I'm predicting it actually I'm predicting one of the 3 next maps will be in africa

[arctic grove]

in one of them where was mention of polish-german border

maybe it will be a future map

[hexed mango]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[arctic grove]

Africa is a great song

also what about london

[hexed mango]

indeed

[hardy crow]

Ok
I predict one of the next 3 specialists will be from South America
And at least one will be classed as a support type

[hexed mango]

drop a nuke on nyc and call it a map

[tame cobalt]

Africa is a country

[hexed mango]

[spare quest]

lmao

[arctic grove]

also naval warfare would be cool addition

[spare quest]

is he serious

[hexed mango]

for a sec i thought you said south africa, and i was gonna say "isnt casper from south africa"
then i read it again

[arctic grove]

Casper is already representing south africa

[tame cobalt]

Bro

[hardy crow]

Lol

[tame cobalt]

Dozer is mexico

[hexed mango]

Dozer's birthplace is just Mexico, no city

yes, unrelated

there's no city for him L

[tame cobalt]

He was born in the wild

[arctic grove]

His legendary Stereotypical dia de los muertos skin

[hexed mango]

whereas sundance is Paris, Casper is Cape Town, etc

[arctic grove]

we need someone from sweden as specialist

[arctic grove]

In the lore it was mexico city

[hexed mango]

south africa != south america

[tame cobalt]

So they're all just from a big city

[hexed mango]

idk for some reason battlefield wiki doesnt have one

[arctic grove]

go to battlfield 2042 website

[arctic grove]

Apparently i cant fucking read

[hexed mango]

hehehehaw

[hardy crow]

So we've got:
3 North Americans
4 Europeans
3 Asian
1 African

[hexed mango]

yes

[arctic grove]

i just hope that devs will restrict gadgets based on specialist class

[tame cobalt]

Straya when

[hardy crow]

We need an Antarctic specialist

penguin specialist

[hexed mango]

penguin

[arctic grove]

Ima call it. It will be revealed Dozer is indeed from mexico city

[tame cobalt]

[arctic grove]

how 3 guys from na

a

oka

[arctic grove]

His specialty is using a mini gun

[next onyx]

Australian specialist.

[tame cobalt]

Dozer is actually from canada

He was raised in a forest by grizzly bears

[dapper river]

dozer is based because he makes sweaty players seethe so hard, I'm just a homie trying to grind to 800 bashes and I've never been teabagged more in any Battlefield

[hexed mango]

we should get an aussie

[arctic grove]

We got outback mackay LMAO

[hexed mango]

nvm way just said that

i also cant read

[arctic grove]

Closest thing to Auzzie

[hexed mango]

hehehehaw

[hardy crow]

His passive is he can dive underwater

[next onyx]

[dapper river]

We have Casper. Same hemisphere

[arctic grove]

HEAVY FROM TF2 IN BF2042???

[hexed mango]

no

[tame cobalt]

Australian specialist will be able to walk on ceilings

[arctic grove]

Dice cant figure out the dive mechanics yet

[hardy crow]

Mackay - Canada
Irish - USA
Dozer - Mexico

[arctic grove]

yea i remembered it

[dapper river]

Can't dive underwater in 2042 because all bodies of water have been polluted with brain eating amoebas that enter through the ears and nose

[hexed mango]

[arctic grove]

and anus. Its an entry point too

ono

[tame cobalt]

[arctic grove]

nice

[hardy crow]

Australian specialist will say G'Day mate on the main menu

[dapper river]

Well yeah but they won't reach your brain that way

[arctic grove]

But its Mackay's face

[arctic grove]

and he must be a sniper

[hardy crow]

Gadget is a jar of piss

[arctic grove]

+1

[spare quest]

tactical parakeet gadget

[dapper river]

Sniper is NOT Australian

[hardy crow]

And he's a professional

[arctic grove]

+2 if he carries a vegamite sandwich as a gadget

and professionals have standards

[tame cobalt]

Australian specialist can put spiders on the ground that turn enemies into panicked mode where they can't aim properly

[arctic grove]

Spiders as big as a dog

or emus

or the ranger

[tame cobalt]

Yes

[arctic grove]

close enough

ah and new vehicle kangaroo

[arctic grove]

Get close to it and it punches you dead

one hit kill

Is anyone looking for a squad???

#lfg-crossplay

a teammate can ride on the pouch

[next onyx]

A survivalist that regains health from scavenged ammo packs and uses a gadget that can I dunno.

[tame cobalt]

[arctic grove]

health from ammo nah

too op

[next onyx]

Not really. 5 per piece.

[tame cobalt]

[hardy crow]

So for 2042 maps we have
North America - Exposure
Asia - Hourglass, Kaleidoscope, Manifest, Discarded
South America - Orbital
Africa - Renewal
Antartica - Breakaway

[arctic grove]

its time for europe

[hardy crow]

Maybe Australia doesn't exist in 2042

[arctic grove]

Hello?????

[hexed mango]

you can ring big ben

[arctic grove]

flooded london would be good map ngl

[next onyx]

Also Raizen best to not say stuff like this here.

[arctic grove]

ok chief

also back to 5hp per ammo pack

uh

i think that would be op in close quarters

with 7+ people

[wise zodiac]

That's a bit hostile, ain't it, chief?

[ruby bay]

Maybe the packs start a slightly faster regen that can be stopped with damage/suppression

[arctic grove]

i tagged this channel 5 times at least for him

but still he was asking

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/beuUo.gif

[next onyx]

Don't lose your temper and submit a modmail.

That's all we ask.

[arctic grove]

k

[arctic grove]

hmm

maybe

but specialist with this ability would be used by tryhards

so

dunno

its gamble tbh

it could work but also it could break whole meta and game

[silk surge]

I don't know how the rules work, but I think I just became the CEO of crossbow.

[ruby bay]

Maybe like 10% faster than passive regen with a max of like 20 hp

[hexed mango]

every ability is used by tryhards

[worn cedar]

imagine how many players will be there when mw2 drops

[acoustic island]

Can we get daily challenges for this game

That rewards exp and all that

[silk surge]

I can't imagine MW2 poaching any players that are currently actively playing 2042. It's a whole different audience.

[arctic grove]

yea but that 5hp per ammo pack

that would be abused as hell

[hexed mango]

medpen

[arctic grove]

never used so i cant really give an opinion how it works

sorry

[ruby bay]

Depending on the gun, it would take ~6 kills to recover getting shot once

[arctic grove]

well

that would be a good beginning

[tame cobalt]

Lol

[worn cedar]

anybody got bf1 installed? worth to download? i mean online, bf5 got like 30 full servers 64p, but how bout 1?

[hexed mango]

bf1 pretty good

however, #battlefield-legacy-titles

[arctic grove]

yup

[worn cedar]

now its a ghost town

[arctic grove]

yea we know

[arctic grove]

well there are alot of official servers running
last time i played bf1 was 22.12.2020

holy shit

but you can easily find any conquest game

or rush, operations

[worn cedar]

thank you

[violet meteor]

Yes very much worth it

Especially the air combat

[arctic grove]

yea

i would say its better than in bf5

[violet meteor]

You're only gonna find conquest and operations full. Least on US servers

[arctic grove]

EU was same back then when i played bf1

[silk surge]

Went from T3 to T1 in one sitting on this week's Friday Night Battlefield mode. Only got called a cheater by 2 people.

[worn cedar]

thats what i need

[arctic grove]

zamn

[hexed mango]

nice

i might have to do that aswell hehehhaw

[arctic grove]

man dedicated to T1

badges

[silk surge]

Hurry, it will be removed early tomorrow.

[arctic grove]

how many kills are required for t1?

[ruby bay]

For guns and most vehicles, 1200

[arctic grove]

lets say you do ~30 kills per round

or 40

ok lets go with 40

30 rounds

to get 1200 kills

zamn

[worn whale]

oml look at this!

[ruby bay]

It is the only mastery challenge for the weapon

[hexed mango]

yes

[hidden sand]

Depends on how well they do ground war this time

[silk surge]

I kinda liked Ground War, but it didn't really scratch that Battlefield itch that 2042 has managed to do despite the long list of problems with that game.

[hexed mango]

im already at 550/1200 so lets see

[arctic grove]

back to karkand
4 new maps
10 new weapons
4 new vehicles
new persistence

thats why sometimes paid dlc is "better" than live service

[calm bison]

Ground war felt like someone trying way too hard to emulate conquest and missing what makes it work

You couldn’t choose your squad

There weren’t planes

Or MBTs

No destruction

[hidden sand]

Yeah, which is why it depends on how well it's done this time. It's a really good opportunity for them to flesh it out and improve it to be more like BF.

[silk surge]

Although I give them a lot of credit for trying to tap the Battlefield market while DICE was busy with World War settings. It almost worked.

[arctic grove]

its like World War 3 all over again

THE BATTLEFIELD KILLER

[calm bison]

Ended up killing itself

[silk surge]

What was that roblox esque Battlefield that people on Reddit hyped as the Battlefield killer again?

[calm bison]

WW3 is a game that has the lowest of lows and highest of highs

[arctic grove]

armed forces

or something like this

a phantom

forces

[ruby bay]

Phantom Forces

[calm bison]

There was Clownfield 2042 and BattleBit

[arctic grove]

battlebit is actually good

clownfield is just a meme game

[silk surge]

Ah yeah, it was Battlebit.

[ruby bay]

The only downside to it is that you can't play it all the time right now

[arctic grove]

yea

i guess ill hop on some tf2 or cs source

ight have fun guys

[silk surge]

u2 mate

[astral solstice]

It may be like this for everyone but I need to ask either way. Could not find a tech support channel so I have to ask.

I am having some performance issues, not even hitting 60fps at medium settings in a lot of situation in game. I have a GTX 3070, AMD Ryzen 7 5800x 8-core and 32gb of ram. Playing on a 1440p 144hz monitor, but as I said I have limited it to 60hz for the game. I don't understand how this is possible. Is it just me that has these issues?

[smoky imp]

VSYNC is turned on

[astral solstice]

let me see if it fixes it! Thanks for the suggestion 😄

[arctic grove]

Golden Age of the Battlefield Era

[cosmic sequoia]

add more attack vehicles and move jets into their own category!! Remove the 50mm from transport vehicles

[small ember]

Only need one gun ship for each team

[wide shore]

BF3 DLCs were elite.

[small ember]

Not dune buggy’s with 50cal turrets lol

[wide shore]

Only one I didn’t mess with too much was Armored Kill. Cause I played on Xbox and the maps were only 24 players.

[small ember]

Biggest problem are the maps and vehicles are free 100 kills

[arctic grove]

does anyone know of bf5 is gonna get updates?

[wide shore]

It’s not

It stopped getting updated years ago

[arctic grove]

i know that

I mean because its the most played battlefield at moment and they just choke at updates

[wide shore]

They’re not gonna go back and start supporting the previous title over the current one

[real lintel]

So uhhhh

How’s the game doing?

[arctic grove]

u know that or u thinl that

[errant bone]

imo pretty good

[arctic grove]

2042

?

[real lintel]

That’s the chat

[real lintel]

I bought it on release

Played less than an hour though

[lusty temple]

Battlefield 2042 trailer soundtrack is actually sick

[wide shore]

I mean, no developer has come out and said they aren’t gonna. But common sense alludes to, there’s no reason for them to do that.

[lusty temple]

Too bad that quality didnt match with the game

[real lintel]

Honestly I still feel like battlefield five is preferable

To 2042

[errant bone]

I'm enjoying the snipers in 2042

Tho

[lusty temple]

Next battlefield better be modern still

[wide shore]

Battlefield VIetnam pls

[real lintel]

^

[lusty temple]

Maybe 2043???

[arctic grove]

its just sad that the good games get no attention but they still want to safe a game with not even 5k monthly players

[errant bone]

Well the whole point is to make the game better so more people will play

[wide shore]

You say that now. But people were not singing that tune a few years ago

[hexed mango]

*save

[real lintel]

How about

Mid-Contemporary

Like 1990s

[errant bone]

Vic be typing fr

long paragrpah

[wide shore]

Cold War game than encompasses 60’s-90’s

[lusty temple]

Battlefield Chernobyl

[arctic grove]

what u mean?

[full burrow]

@astral solstice I have similar specs but a 240hz monitor and I do high settings texture and texture filtering, low everything else, maybe terrain medium, dlss quality and dont cap the fps, I was experimenting a lot with different fps caps and settings and no matter what the fps will still dip and by capping it you are removing any leeway that you have

[errant bone]

Don't give them a reason to give us superpowers

[wide shore]

The community hated BFV to death up until they killed it off. Then it suddenly became great.

Which is what happens every new release

[errant bone]

I've always stuck with bfv

[lusty temple]

Almost like a cycle

[real lintel]

They could just do a bunch of maps from random wars around the 90s

[errant bone]

Thought it was always good

[real lintel]

Battlefield Yugoslavia would be cool

[lusty temple]

Battlefield in former Yugoslavia

[wide shore]

I enjoyed BFV it’s whole life too. But I don’t speak for the “majority”

[burnt swan]

cause the final update made the game decent

[arctic grove]

ive played it since realese and i know many others that did too it had hate without a reason it was great but didnt had that much content

[burnt swan]

and ea killed it off

[real lintel]

Battlefield Republika Srpska

[lusty temple]

Bro no way we just thought the same idea

[arctic grove]

would be an actual good idea

[real lintel]

Battlefield Iraq

Battlefield napoleonic wars

[lusty temple]

Fighting in capitals like Belgrade would be sick

[full burrow]

Battlefield stone age?

[errant bone]

Yes

I want to throw rocks at people

[full burrow]

gotta level up your rock lol

[ruby bay]

Well they did fix all of the issues by the time they were done updating it

[real lintel]

Battlefield: Single Celled Organism

[errant bone]

Would recommend 10/10

[real lintel]

Battlefield but they actually make Bad Company three

[full burrow]

I dont how many sidearms bfv had on release but still having just 3 in this game seems pathetic

[wide shore]

Because it was hailed as a failure. Which it was. Despite how good this community thinks it is now. If people sang their current tune years ago it wouldn’t have died so early.

But instead the anti-woke crowd got their assholes in a tizzy and made V the current hatewave game. Which basically killed it.

[hexed mango]

BF4 moment

[real lintel]

Based Anti-Woke crowd

[hexed mango]

besides the last thing

[wide shore]

It also doesn’t help that they straight ruined the gunplay like a week after the best update that could’ve saved the game. Then left it like that for weeks. Which put the final nail in the coffin.

[full burrow]

dont forget cos you say if people sayd good things back then, but even then the games current population is way smaller than at its peak

[ruby bay]

A lot of the sidearms felt very similar to each other; like the Ruby and Repetierpistole having almost the exact same stats. Also, the suppressed versions were just copy and pastes with the added suppressor

[real lintel]

Maybe they shouldn’t of pushed all the woke shit

It cost zero dollars to do that

[wide shore]

Maybe people shouldn’t have cried so much about women in battlefield.

[full burrow]

I didnt have a pc when bfv was out but I remember being happy with bf1

[wide shore]

I get the hatewave for the reveal trailer, that shit was dookie.

[hexed mango]

looks like they learned how to make good trailers for 2042

[full burrow]

but even if you take the "same gun" and put several variants of it its a nice bonus

[wide shore]

But to act like BFVs launch and content releases weren’t staggeringly slow like every BF release is just silly.

[hexed mango]

maybe too good

[real lintel]

Well considering how little people bought it compared to last installations, maybe they should actually listen to the majority of their consumers and just fuck off with woke stuff

[full burrow]

as long as there is still decent choice

[arctic grove]

is there a possibility to write an admin lr so from dc like an battlefield admin to maybe change his opinion and make bf5 uodates again

[hexed mango]

no

[wide shore]

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

[real lintel]

Literally no

People who complain about “no inclusiveness” in battlefield are such a small part of the actual consumer market

Probably less than 1% of people who buy the game

[wide shore]

Everytime DICE does new stuff it gets shut down immediately. BF fans act like they want a new experience when really they want the same game every time.

[real lintel]

There was a clear right decision

And they didn’t make it

Still gonna buy the most expensive edition because I’m a cuck though

[wide shore]

The amount of “why couldn’t 2042 just be Battlefield 4.5” comments I’ve seen are disappointingly staggering. It’s sad

[full burrow]

lol nonone acts like we want a new experience

[tacit sphinx]

no-one was complaining about the lack of it but if it bothers you that much then maybe its a good thing that it puts certain people off from the game because noone wants them here in the first place

[full burrow]

since bf4 I think everyone just wanted a newer bf4

bf1 already put a lot of people off cos it was so different from bf3 and bf4

[real lintel]

I just wanna battlefield that has a normal AK variant

[full burrow]

bf5 carried on from bf1 ish

[real lintel]

Why can’t we just get the 74M

[wide shore]

I sure as shit don’t want BF4 and a half. If I wanted to play BF4 I’d just play BF4

[arctic grove]

[hexed mango]

however they might of spent too much time on it lel

[wide shore]

BF1 felt so great because it was so different from the previous titles.

[full burrow]

I loved bf1

[arctic grove]

more than half their entire budget

[full burrow]

but I know people who didnt like the deviation

[solar obsidian]

im gonna be really controversial here

[hexed mango]

all of the budget

[hexed mango]

not a new thing

[arctic grove]

[solar obsidian]

but i think battlefield would be a better game, if we where just a bit accepting more for how the gameplay is in every game and its okay every battlefield is different

[wide shore]

Me too. But the great thing about BF is that each game feels different enough that you don’t need to feel bad about not playing the current release if you don’t prefer it.

[hexed mango]

accepting in what way

[solar obsidian]

so devs dont need to revamp everything because social media outcry on something

[wide shore]

Many people kept playing BF4 during BF1 and BFV. They preferred modern. That’s okay

[solar obsidian]

that said, the lack of polish in 2042 deserved an outcry

[hexed mango]

Lis is Polish

[arctic grove]

Id be happy they updated the graphics of bf4 on xbox

[arctic grove]

So she prefers polish sausage than bratwurst

[hexed mango]

probably

[wide shore]

But battlefield isn’t a subscription title. I expect each game to be different if I’m gonna pay a fresh release price for it. Sometimes the changes are good. Sometimes not.

But considering the current comments about the Last of Us remake. People aren’t willing to pay $70 for a graphics enhancement.

[solar obsidian]

just the usual angry stance toward, specialist, vehicle call ins, some weapon balancing, and those things

[hexed mango]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[arctic grove]

BUT The devs for that game said it wasnt a cash grab 😆

[hexed mango]

all i can say is that they're working on it
sam tells me that they have plans they havent executed yet

[full burrow]

I cant stand shit like you know the old cossaks game? they redid the grapgics and called it cossaks 3 and charged full price

[hexed mango]

diablo 2 moment

[arctic grove]

Fair

[keen loom]

[arctic grove]

GTA V & Skyrim moment

10 years

of full price

[full burrow]

old cod games

[arctic grove]

Lmao true

[wide shore]

I just don’t want Battlefield to become stale and formulaic. I don’t want the only different between titles being a fresh coat of paint and that’s it.

[full burrow]

world at war is still 20 pounds

I fucking played that on the nintendo wii

[arctic grove]

wait until bo1 remaster for 70 bucks. Base game only! not including dlc.

[full burrow]

to be fair havnt played cod on pc since mw2

[arctic grove]

The emulated version is alot smoother and free

[full burrow]

I have tried free weekeneds and shit but it doesnt feel right

on console at like a friends house im cool with cod

[violet meteor]

[tacit sphinx]

this is literally how i play cod lol

my flatmate has bo3 on his xbox so we'll just get 3/4 of us, have some drinks and mess about on the party modes

[full burrow]

lol you guys are making me talk too much, I need to make a bedtime smok

[wide shore]

I’d probably buy it just because I love BO1 to death

[arctic grove]

Fair

WaW and Bo1

best cods

[wide shore]

I agree

[solar obsidian]

treyarch enjoyer

[tacit sphinx]

i own a few cod games through ps+ but it's like mw1+2 remastered and ww2 lol

[full burrow]

oh I loved Advanced Warfare on my ps3

cod 4 and mw2 were my favs on pc

[tacit sphinx]

and i have access to the multiplayer of mw19 (i think)

[full burrow]

I would play warzone more (one if I had friends to party with, but it also sucks how the guns are tied into the main game)

takes ages to lvl and is hard at the start if you dont have the games

[tacit sphinx]

accidentally bought a really dodgy method of getting it on ebay so i may well not have the license properly now

[arctic grove]

Advance warfare villain was kevin spacey and he did a great job

[full burrow]

I thought it was hella fun

and that mode against the waves of bots was pretty fun

with the light/medium/heavy classes

[tacit sphinx]

i think warzone is neat to watch but it's so meta oriented that i can't get into it tbh

[full burrow]

I was always light flying around

[tacit sphinx]

also i like... can't have it installed on my ps4 if i want to play literally anything else

[full burrow]

yeah I enjoy watching it

I dont know when you last checked but on pc the size was reduced a bit ages ago

or maybe its cos they let you not download the other game content too

[tacit sphinx]

yeah it's probably improved a bit since i had it installed but idk lol

not really bothered at this point

i kind of mainly bought it to try the campaign (hence why i went through ebay because i didnt want to spend £60) only to not read the small print and realise that it did not include the campaign because it was an iffy game share thing lol

[orchid jacinth]

gonna be honest. I absolutely hate Seasonals. Like the game isnt even half finished and you want us to pay for more content? xD

[wide shore]

At least they committed to fixing a bulk of the issues before releasing DLC. Cough BF4 cough

[orchid jacinth]

use the people that are coding new random skins to add some fillage to the maps. 😅

[tacit sphinx]

i dont think youve quite grasped the concept of different job roles 😅

[cyan trout]

Pretty sure the paid rewards are optional

[orchid jacinth]

they could have learned from BF4/1/5 and noticed the trend that people just want to play the game they paid for. If they want season passes and skins they can play Fornite 😇

[spare quest]

they are not even worth it

[tacit sphinx]

fornite

[orchid jacinth]

all for that! Power to the people that want to pay extra. but atleast have a basic game functioning before they release that stuff

[tacit sphinx]

they did

[wide shore]

I mean, seasons aren’t inherently bad. If anything they give players more reason to play every week

[tacit sphinx]

unlike bf4

[orchid jacinth]

I do understand the concept of allocating budget to different projects 🙂

[fiery shoal]

what a low tier "lul fortnite" comment.. i mean, fortnite is one of the most generous games out there...

[spare quest]

I've heard that fortnite without building ain't that bad

[fiery shoal]

thats what me and my buddies are playing lately

[cyan trout]

Should've seen it at full release

[orchid jacinth]

Didn't say it was a bad game, its just a completely different style of shooter.

[fiery shoal]

ever since they added no build its solid

[spare quest]

good to know

[fiery shoal]

and thats irrelative to the subject...

[orchid jacinth]

no its not. Its the point i was making

[fiery shoal]

what exactly is your point? because bf 4 and 1 provide content different than bfv did...

you know bfv had bp and skins too right?

[cyan trout]

God I hated the 'tides of war'

[spare quest]

it was good

it gave you something to do

[tacit sphinx]

bf1 had loot boxes

[orchid jacinth]

BFV was a complete game when it came out. It look(ed) absolutely stunning. BF2024.... well looks the same as BF4 which came out almost a decade ago

[tacit sphinx]

surprised (but not really) that people don't bring that up more often

[fiery shoal]

the only thing bfv had more than 2042 at launch was story missions and more weapons...

[spare quest]

ah yes, singleplayer

[cyan trout]

That's insulting to BF4 tbh

[orchid jacinth]

rather have loot boxes that you can open while the game loads than having to watch the SP thing at the end of each game

[tacit sphinx]

strangest take i've ever seen but ok

[fiery shoal]

aesthetically i like every bf title more than 2042, that doesnt mean that 2042 is graphically bad though...

art style is a thing...

[orchid jacinth]

true. I applogize do the devs of BF4

[fiery shoal]

objectively the tech behind 2042 is better too

[arctic grove]

Content? BfV was a half baked game at launch just like 2042

[fiery shoal]

but it had sp story modes and 5 more weapons...

[arctic grove]

Definitely not complete

[fiery shoal]

/s

[cyan trout]

And more multiplayer modes

[arctic grove]

2042/s

[orchid jacinth]

better but not complete. thats all I want. A complete game for a full priced AAA

[fiery shoal]

what do you define as a complete game?

[astral solstice]

Okey, seemed like I solved it but then I tabed out to change netflix series (on my other monitor) and then I went back to having shit fps again. So might just be something wierd with netflix and bf2042 idkkk

[arctic grove]

Those days are over my brother in christ

[cyan trout]

[fiery shoal]

compared to 10 years ago youre getting more game for the same price

[orchid jacinth]

😦

[fiery shoal]

and thats not even factoring a year after launch with a live service vs paid for dlcs

[orchid jacinth]

what any video comparing BF1/5 graphics to BF2042 and get back to me xD

[fiery shoal]

how the fuck you jumped to graphics when talking about content is beyond me...

what is with people lately not even staying on topic?

[tacit sphinx]

so instead you want to pay almost the full price of the game on top for the rest of the content (which dies out after about a year anyway because it's locked behind a purchase and separate to the rest of the game)?

[orchid jacinth]

I think graphics are part of the content. BF2042 maps are like open sandboxes.

[tacit sphinx]

it's all connected, trust me, i have a coherent argument

[fiery shoal]

ill stand by people wanting to pay for content, but it still makes no sense to me

[cyan trout]

All battlefield games are technically sandboxes

[fiery shoal]

you just have to look at bfv

[solar obsidian]

some i having issues with the game degrading in performance when minimizing bf2042,

use fullscreen and dont minimize the game to keep performance consistent

[orchid jacinth]

so instead you want to pay almost the full price of the full game

[fiery shoal]

everyone complained about bfv getting slow content, and in the end you got 45 bucks worth of maps completely free, no split playerbase either

[astral solstice]

the thing is im using fullscreen, but it acts like a borderless cause I can move the mouse over to the other monitor, but I guess that might be the problem.

[solar obsidian]

confine the mouse to your main monitor

[tacit sphinx]

i do get it, more content looks good, but i'd rather get a little less content overall that i can reliably play for as long as i can play the game full stop rather than DLCs pushed out that is effectively a limited time access

[cyan trout]

All virtual games are limited time access tbh

[hexed mango]

i'd rather have bug fixes

[astral solstice]

I guess thats the only thing to keep it consistent and not change monitor by misstake

[solar obsidian]

been the workaround for me,

sadly

[tacit sphinx]

i remember having a great time on the DLCs in swbf2015, but pretty soon after the last dlc dropped the matches started becoming harder to come by

[fiery shoal]

he... he also 100 your comment.... i thought he was against live service...

[tacit sphinx]

let me refer you to my previous image

[fiery shoal]

[orchid jacinth]

or the spawning situation. One game they make it decent. then when the next title comes out you just have to hope they take a functioning feature with them

[spare quest]

It Hurt Itself in Its Confusion

[fiery shoal]

im just gonna.. go

[astral solstice]

😭

[tacit sphinx]

i like this player tag

[orchid jacinth]

no, I'm happy they are still working on the game. But I dont think this is a "wow that is so nice of them" but more "glad they are fixing this dumpster fire"

[tacit sphinx]

https://tenor.com/view/knight-solar-praise-the-sun-gif-5316154

[orchid jacinth]

don't hype your game up if you know you're going to release a beta version of it.

[solar obsidian]

guess they never should hype a battlefield since 3

[restive marten]

Imma buy bf 2042, Ik imma get hate for saying this lol

[orchid jacinth]

I know its not the devs fault but rather the people that are wanting to make the money off the game.

[solar obsidian]

welcome to the war!

[restive marten]

It looks fun tbh

[tacit sphinx]

nah, most of the people who are really obnoxious about it have left at this point

[orchid jacinth]

😂

[restive marten]

I never really played bf like the past games

[fiery dawn]

Fellow DS enjoyer 😎

[tacit sphinx]

only took about 3 "that's it i quit"s each but we got there

[violet meteor]

Do you care that much about the hate?

[tacit sphinx]

i mean i don't know if this has gone over your head but businesses exist to produce revenue

[violet meteor]

Why mention it

[orchid jacinth]

bf? I thought we were talking about Roblox

[violet meteor]

Live your life

[tacit sphinx]

selling a product at a loss is (generally) not a great idea if you want to stay afloat

[restive marten]

Yeah Idk why I said it I just said it for some reason lol mb

[orchid jacinth]

totally and I get that. But you also need to keep to your promises.

BF's model is now "release an unfinished game. Spend years working on it and fixing it. Then when its good we started hyping the next game. Repeat"

[solar obsidian]

been like that since bad company 2

battlefield 3 was an outstanding game at launch

[orchid jacinth]

is saw that change xD

[solar obsidian]

then the hype for 4 really took of

ye

forgot how close those 2 released

bc2> bf3

[craggy onyx]

This was literally The Division

[solar obsidian]

i dont mind getting a rough start to a game, we need a LOT of playtesting anyways to get most bugs and issues out anyways

i would just like the longevity of the games to be better,

faster content, longer lifecycle

[orchid jacinth]

to be fair BF4 and 1 were good games after a few years.

[tacit sphinx]

it's almost any game now to an extent

[solar obsidian]

its always like that after a few years

[craggy onyx]

There are a few exceptions like Warframe

[tacit sphinx]

there's always going to be issues that didn't get picked up in whatever amount of testing you did when you release it to millions of people

[solar obsidian]

only bf5 stands out, some have major stuttering issues in that game and dislike it for that reason, while those who dont like it mostly

[tacit sphinx]

bugs, balance issues, whatever

[orchid jacinth]

but some of the bugs, balances and features issues don't take a lot of testing to notice. Like not having a scoreboard?

[solar obsidian]

im one who dont care about balancing issues anyways,

meta will always shift to the strongest anyways

[tacit sphinx]

it's also been the case since early days of complex video games, difference being then that you didn't get a patch for it, you just hoped it didnt break the game too much

[solar obsidian]

we had squad scoreboard in bf2042, that was enough for me, these are not super tight competitive shooters anyways,

and bf have not had good profile tracking IN game anyways since battlelog shut down

[orchid jacinth]

squad scoreboard are great if you play with friends. But some people dont have friends that play BF

[solar obsidian]

https://battlefieldtracker.com/bf2042
this is the site most used when they want to see there performance anyways

[solar obsidian]

i played under 15 games with friends,

devs know they dont need insanely deep tracking tools, because why brother with something others do for you, FOR FREE

scoreboard right now is fine though,

[orchid jacinth]

all im saying is that I would rather have the devs work on a good playable game at launch (or within the first year) than have seasonal passes with skins and other random junk.

[solar obsidian]

understandable

[tacit sphinx]

which they have

[solar obsidian]

battlefield, have been improving with every single patch at least

personally i just been hit with the minimize degrading performance bug

[orchid jacinth]

I totally get that company wants to make their money. but surely making and releasing a good game generates a lot more attention and interest than... well... BF2042 launch

[solar obsidian]

but except that, game is night and day since launch

games barely need to be polished on a technical or gameplay balance level to get a large playerbase, they just need to be fun to play

[orchid jacinth]

yes, but the state the game is at now (almost a year after launch) should be the bare minimum of what they released it at.

[solar obsidian]

yep

[orchid jacinth]

and dont get me wrong I LOVE BF and have played them all since 4. but its bleeding hard to get friends to join and get into the game if BF at launch is a massive meme

and its not like BF lacks feedback when making a game, they have stacks of it from previous releases xD

find new friends inside the game

its better to play with players that share the interest instead of trying to force irl or closer mates into games that dont pull them

when bf2042 gets a free weekend or good sale, ask them again

[orchid jacinth]

its harder than it sounds. :/

but good points

[violet meteor]

It's almost like bf is a teamwork oriented game or something

Much better with friends that's for sure

[solar obsidian]

when you have a good match, with some that share a little synergy

send them a party invite or friend request, its all it needs

get a lot of mates on your friend list, then you are more sure to have SOMEONE online when you log on

[tacit sphinx]

yeah convinced one of my friends to get bfv i think during chapter 5, he liked it, and it was really fun playing with someone in VC

then he got his psn account permabanned for trying to sell rocket league items

[orchid jacinth]

i'll have to muster some of that extroverted self and get recruiting

[blissful thicket]

is it me or is huron op

64-0 jeez

breaktrough hourglass

now 103-0

and huron won the game...

[spare quest]

no rao?

[blissful thicket]

just crazy how easy it is to farm kills with it

[spare quest]

It is, if your team is braindead and won't use Rao

[blissful thicket]

so thats the only counter?

great

[spare quest]

Well it's the best counter

[solar obsidian]

ram it with transporter heli

[blissful thicket]

😄

[queen grove]

Who is playing Friday night battlefield?

[acoustic island]

Yeah and what’s the mode

[spare quest]

Just take a look at the fnb channels

[queen grove]

Super fun

[spare quest]

[queen grove]

Where

[spare quest]

bruh

[queen grove]

[blissful thicket]

on this discord i guess

[queen grove]

It's harder to find a squad or people to play battlefield than it seems

[spare quest]

That sounds like a you problem

[tacit sphinx]

scroll down on the channel bar lmao

#fnb-english

[queen grove]

Maybe, do you always have a squad?

[spare quest]

No i prefer to play solo

[queen grove]

PS4 or 5, I'm stuck with PS4 right now

[queen grove]

Then you lose at hazard zone like me

[spare quest]

I never played hazard zone before and i'm not planning to do it

[keen loom]

Conquest > Hazard Zone

[spare quest]

breakthrough > conquest

[hexed mango]

i was for a bit

[hexed mango]

yes

128 bt > 64 bt

<not the maps tho>

[idle lion]

whats the fucking point of having Tech Support WHEN THEY DONT FUCKING ANSWER

[spare quest]

My shitty laptop can't handle 128 players

or my slow internet idk

[hexed mango]

heheheha

[hexed mango]

become your own tech support

[idle lion]

ITS BEEN MORE THAN 3 DAYS AND ON THEIR SUPPORT PAGE IT SAYS A REPRESENTATIVE WOULD RESPOND WITHIN 72 HOURS

[keen loom]

[hexed mango]

did you do the live chat?

[keen loom]

Too much caps

[hexed mango]

that usually works within 15 minutes for me

[idle lion]

no because i cant even find where live chat is

i only know of the forums and cases thing

[arctic grove]

Random question but do you guys find matches of full of players or mostly A.I bots?

[low timber]

Can’t remember when I last time saw an AI

[arctic grove]

last time i played which was a few months ago, i would see alot of a.i bots

im in Canada

[hexed mango]

[arctic grove]

Have they finally fixed stuff up? so the games more playable and ENJOYABLE?

[hexed mango]

i chose game wont launch as a placeholder

[hexed mango]

yes, idk why caps are needed
still has work to be done, but def a better game now

[hexed mango]

there's a canada map now

[arctic grove]

i only used caps for enjoyable because you know buggy the game was right?

[hexed mango]

yeah its not as buggy now, still some bugs, but not as bad as a few months ago

[arctic grove]

ahh hopefully that brought players back tho like me

[low timber]

Also next update is soon, should come early next month. With Kaleidoscope rework.

[hexed mango]

mostly, i would hope more come back with the next 2 updates (one being august update, other being s2)

[arctic grove]

good to hear.

i played like well over 30 hours at launch

because i wanted to give the game a chance

[hexed mango]

ive played 800

[arctic grove]

i took a break so they could fix it up.

[wild sapphire]

I got back on yesterday and have played it some for the first time in months… I like the battlepass and store and the revive system (noise) still not enough modes though and content if season 2 adds more weapons and maps that would be huge but I doubt that’ll happen

[hexed mango]

yeah that was a good call

[hexed mango]

by season 2 we should have all the portal guns, so dont doubt more content

[wild sapphire]

Portal guns?

[hexed mango]

as for maps, unsure what they're planning, but the reworks for the maps would be a big boost

[wild sapphire]

In all out warfare?

[hexed mango]

yeah the guns from the portal modes are set to go to aow (mainly bf3 guns)

[idle lion]

Bruh in which one would black screen after EVERY match fit in

[low timber]

I’m gonna guess that the update is ether on the 4th or 9th of next month, and I’m leaning more on the 4th, but we shall see.

[hexed mango]

game performance probably

[low timber]

They said some weapons, and never said mainly BF3, unless I’ve missed some post.

[wild sapphire]

That’s fn awesome tbh

[hexed mango]

well why tf would they add 1942 weapons to 2042

[low timber]

Meant more BC2

[idle lion]

pressing select contact option throws me into the case creation thing and not in live chat request

[hexed mango]

yeah they'll probably pick from the non-ww2 bc2 weapons (like no m1 or thompson) and bf3

[wild sapphire]

It’ll be interesting to see what they do with the attachments

[hexed mango]

send pic

[idle lion]

i cant but nvm i figured it out

it was one screen after

[low timber]

I’m hoping for XM8, P90 and Gol Magnum.

[hexed mango]

yeah they said they're reworking them to fit in 2042, so i bet they'll be completely fixed up like the other 2042 guns, with the attachments and sort

[hexed mango]

Gol Magnum my beloved

[low timber]

My most used sniper in BF4

And one of the hardest weapons to unlock

[arctic grove]

guess i will redownload bf2042 tomorrow 🙂

[hexed mango]

https://youtu.be/DHKnTqrGOwQ
this isnt the gol but shush

[idle lion]

that was dirty

[hexed mango]

quite

[low timber]

I wonder if the datamined Portal guns supposedly coming in the August patch would also be in the range of getting chosen

[hexed mango]

lol not the aek

:(

[idle lion]

on god AEK

pls no

[hexed mango]

man i really want to learn how to datamine frostbite :(

[low timber]

M95 Barrett

[idle lion]

frosty mod manager

[hexed mango]

ive done fortnite before cause why not but unreal is so much earlier easier

[hexed mango]

[paper parrot]

Yo, my game is broken

[hexed mango]

maybe

lowkey

guess i gotta learn C#

[idle lion]

i think you can decompile the files of frostbite with that

[hexed mango]

you might be correct

[idle lion]

C# is literally microsoft java

[hexed mango]

indeed

[paper parrot]

Is the game working for yall?

[hexed mango]

c++ tho is just you signing your own death wish

[hexed mango]

yes

[idle lion]

and C is... it just is

[paper parrot]

The game isnt working

[hexed mango]

Frosty also has this

[paper parrot]

It says 1/64 players

[hexed mango]

it is indeed a programming language

[idle lion]

sometimes you might be put into an empty server

[paper parrot]

Well, i have been trying alot

Wait

Crossplay was off

:/

[idle lion]

bruh

[paper parrot]

I think i fixed it

[exotic slate]

Is the player base dying again?

[small ember]

Oddly no

[idle lion]

just watching anime while waiting for live chat with tech support

-_-

[hexed mango]

BF2042 wont load with frosty :(

[idle lion]

prolly denuvos fault

or easy anti cheat

most likely EAC
