battlefield-2042

[hexed mango]

Barret Model 98B is in BF3 portal

[sharp marten]

In 2042 that is I mean

[hexed mango]

indeed

[tranquil turtle]

if they add the m98b it'll just be another dxr-1

[lone wren]

More 50 cals would be cool

[upper socket]

Are cindirs easy to fly?

[tranquil turtle]

as for the .50s they'll just act the same as the ntw

[sharp marten]

Anyone else think the 50 in 2042 has to much drop off

[upper socket]

Condors

[sharp marten]

Sorry I mean bullet drop

[tranquil turtle]

they should add that new chinese ar

[hexed mango]

DSR:

[tranquil turtle]

the qbz-191

[solar obsidian]

no

[tranquil turtle]

that keyholes at 10 yards

[hexed mango]

GOL Magnum

[upper socket]

Looks powerful

[hexed mango]

that's the DXR-1 ingame

[upper socket]

Oh

That

[hexed mango]

this is the GOL Magnum

[upper socket]

Kinda traumatized

Had one game where 7-8 were all firing dxrs on me at once

For the entire round

[lone wren]

The high caliber rifles are strange in bf4

[hexed mango]

guess the sniper

[upper socket]

Sws

[hexed mango]

no

[lone wren]

They one shot people most of the time

[tranquil turtle]

l115a3

[sharp marten]

L96?

[hexed mango]

yes

https://youtu.be/DHKnTqrGOwQ
now watch this video of my trickshot with the L115

[solar obsidian]

1.6, i can hear the sound already

[hexed mango]

not really a trickshot

but

[tranquil turtle]

that is one of the quickscopes ever

[upper socket]

Looks fun

[hexed mango]

it is indeed A quickscope

[sharp marten]

What’s that Russian bullpup assault rifle with the round scope/red dot

[tranquil turtle]

the ac-42?

[upper socket]

Ive done a faster one with the ntw

[tranquil turtle]

it's fake

[lone wren]

AC-42

[sharp marten]

Maybe I’d have to see a picture of it

[hexed mango]

however the AC-42 is very similar to the ASh 12.7

[tranquil turtle]

nah

[hexed mango]

i mean

[upper socket]

The AC42 is that burst rifle

[sharp marten]

No not the ac-42 it was in bf4 and I think in bf3

[lone wren]

Yes

[sharp marten]

This one was fully automatic

[tranquil turtle]

the groza-1/4?

[hexed mango]

now this is an AC-42

[tranquil turtle]

except that thing is a cannon

the ac-42 just shoots 5.45 or whatever

[hexed mango]

yeah lol

[tranquil turtle]

isn't it like 12.7x55

[hexed mango]

believe so

[tranquil turtle]

it sounds crazy at first but they made a revolver in that cartridge as well

[lone wren]

The only current hand cannon in 2042 is that revolver of hardcore farming

[tranquil turtle]

RSh-12

[hexed mango]

12.7 is in the name anyways

its an ASh-12.7 in 12.7mm

[sharp marten]

Oh it’s the F2000

That’s what I wana see in 2042

[tranquil turtle]

russia has some cool guns I want to see in game

[upper socket]

Question: the mastery key attachment in 2042, is it good?

[hexed mango]

gawd damn

that thing looks weird

[tranquil turtle]

the VKS would be an interesting sniper

or the AMB-17 as an integrally suppressed ar

[upper socket]

Question: the master key attachment in 2042, is it good?

[tranquil turtle]

never used it

anyways https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_modern_Russian_small_arms_and_light_weapons

[hexed mango]

never used it either

[arctic grove]

I guess its meta to be thrown back to the main menu when trying to find a game? 🤣

[tranquil turtle]

so much crazy shit

[hexed mango]

all i want in this game

F-22

[arctic grove]

Happy i got this shitty game for free

[hexed mango]

B-21

[tranquil turtle]

that integrally suppressed pistol bruh

that doesn't have a suppressor

[upper socket]

This may be a bit of a strech but what about the b24, 25, or 29

[tranquil turtle]

apparently a modernized aek-971 exists

grau designation 6p67

[sharp marten]

If they add stealth bombers I’ll lose it

[tranquil turtle]

considering they're adding an aek-971 to portal, I have no doubt something like that will be in season 2

[sharp marten]

That’d be a huge W

[lone wren]

I do want a 2042 era HK

[outer anchor]

I hope the dozer buff allows him to do a mini dash like a lock on

cuz god damn sometimes its frustrating

[tranquil turtle]

sadly mp5s and shit are pretty outdated

[hexed mango]

B24? what no

[outer anchor]

lol aek is going to make the k30 look like a baby

[hexed mango]

1940s bomber

we already got the B-52

[tranquil turtle]

they're like 70s tech

[outer anchor]

oh you have a k30, thats cute .. let me introduce you to my aek

[hexed mango]

B24?

or not talking to me

[tranquil turtle]

no, the mp5

[hexed mango]

ah

[sharp marten]

I wouldn’t be opposed to seeing some equipment returning either mortars wink wink

[lone wren]

It's not a MP5

[tranquil turtle]

this modernized one can fit 7.62x39 as well 💀

[outer anchor]

the little remote robot that repair were funny

[hexed mango]

B-25 was retired in 1979
B-29 retired in '60

[outer anchor]

they need to come back

[tranquil turtle]

so imagine an ak-24 with high power but at 900 rpm

[orchid zenith]

Did they add more air vehicles in the patch notes ??

[tranquil turtle]

no

[sharp marten]

No

[hexed mango]

no

[orchid zenith]

Ofc not

[lone wren]

HK417

It's a rifle

[south wyvern]

HK 433

[tranquil turtle]

we kinda have the dm7 though

[upper socket]

Boutta say they should add the KRISS vector but thats the K30

[sharp marten]

It’s mainly qol bug fixes

[hexed mango]

lol

[lone wren]

👍

[south wyvern]

417 is the dmr 416 is the AR, their new 433 is also an AR

[cosmic sequoia]

remove the 50mm from transport helicopters

[hexed mango]

• kale
• specialist looks
• stats
• rush stuff

[hexed mango]

no, but its getting nerfed (again)

[lone wren]

So a DMR assault rifle hybrid huh

[sharp marten]

Again?

[hexed mango]

yes

[sharp marten]

I didn’t see that

[orchid zenith]

Crazy how maps like caspian Border have more air vehicles and less players then base game maps

They need hurry up and either separate jets or add back 2 attack vehicles

[tranquil turtle]

ah wait

they should add the MDR

[noble coral]

Whe need new alot of new maps and guns to revie this game

[tranquil turtle]

I hope season 2 brings at least 4 guns

[south wyvern]

No?

[sharp marten]

I hope they add a specialist that can deploy a mounted turret not like Boris but one yiu shoot your self

[hexed mango]

reworking the maps > new maps

[south wyvern]

think of the 417 as an AR10/SR25

[uncut geode]

Who is having problems connecting to a match?

[upper socket]

Thoughts on the current specialist system in 2042

[south wyvern]

The 433 is it's own thing

[south wyvern]

its ok i guess

I'd rather have the old system

[hexed mango]

its fine, might need a bit of work tho

[tranquil turtle]

they need to be put into classses

[orchid zenith]

Watch them add like 2 still and then more air vehicles with this 1 attack vehicle per team

[hexed mango]

it can work if they layer it with classes, like you choose a class and then a specialist of which you want to play

[upper socket]

Needs to be a clear cut diffrence, they can all equip the same crap

[orchid zenith]

They balance vehicles like children

[hexed mango]

so you can be a medic and play rao

[hexed mango]

guns are fine for that, gadgets maybe not

[upper socket]

Ye

[hexed mango]

i would be fine if they class-restricted gadgets

[upper socket]

No pont to medics if we can all carry med kits no point to assault if we all carry aa

[hexed mango]

but i like being able to use PP-29 with rao

yeah which is why adding a layered class system would be epic
choose a class: medic, support, whatever, etc, etc. (like the 4 base classes)
-> choose a specialist
-> guns, gadgets, etc

i think this would be a good replacement for the Loadouts section of the game, where you can create your own loadouts, replace that with the 4 classes, so you have a (example) support, engineer, recon, assault class

each which has gadgets and shit you can equip

[upper socket]

Ye exactly

[hexed mango]

but still have specialists ontop of that, so you can play rao as a recon or rao as a assault, or something

and then they can restrict inside of that

[cosmic sequoia]

idk why they keep nerfing the 50mm cannon

it's like just remove it from most vehicles

[hexed mango]

so if you play assault, you can have medic crate or some shit

[lone wren]

Well rao would make a excellent support for the AA vehicle

[hexed mango]

also, something interesting, the Medpen in BF3 portal is used to revive squadmates, why not make that a function in 2042, being able to heal others with the ben

[hexed mango]

yes

[lone wren]

Just work with the driver and hack enemy helis and transport etc then start blasting away

[upper socket]

Maybye something like a medic has more effective med stuff
Assault has higher damaging wepons or better aim
Support has more ammo
And recon has tabs on all fight locations

[hexed mango]

i did that with a random angel the other match, i used Rao + SOFLAM and they had M5

[hexed mango]

yes the classes should also have passives, so you can do that stuff aswell

[upper socket]

Ye but if you use the designated class it becomes more effective

[hexed mango]

ye

[upper socket]

I feel sundance is the most fun character cuz of her wingsuit

Thats me though

[hexed mango]

mackay is better

[upper socket]

Depends on playstyle and what wepons you main

[hexed mango]

M5 or PP

[upper socket]

Uh

M5

Trickshots with it are super fun

[hexed mango]

M5 + Short Barrel + Standard/Extended

i used Close Combat before but its getting nerfed and i like standard more

[lone wren]

Standard is good all rounder

[hexed mango]

gooder

morest gooder

[lone wren]

I enjoy one shooting people from across the room with the scar grenade launcher

[upper socket]

Id say the best scope for the ntw is the k8holo like using it close up

[hexed mango]

TV 2x

[upper socket]

Yall think the gvt is good?

[hexed mango]

of course

i T1'd it

[lone wren]

GVT favourite rifle

I need to attach grenade launcher on M5

[outer anchor]

ARE WE READY FOR TOMORROW

1 STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION BOYS

[lone wren]

1 step at a time

[worthy inlet]

This game is still getting updates?

[lone wren]

I forgot if 2042 had transport helis

[balmy halo]

Should I just run on low

On a 3060 laptop

For the best performance

Game looks great no matter what imo

[hexed mango]

dude your laptop is gonna melt your desk one day

[balmy halo]

Already is 😅

[hexed mango]

lol

[balmy halo]

I play on medium high and get 70-95 so I'm pretty happy with that honestly

It definitely fluctuates alottt

Dk why

[solar obsidian]

its the battlefield experience

[balmy halo]

Sure is 😔

[rocky kraken]

morbius

give us a review tommorow of the update

thanks

[solar obsidian]

im ready

"k30 useless"
"bsv still op"
"air still op, no counters"
"revamped map takes up even MORE frames"
"hardline was better than this ****"

[rocky kraken]

hardline was fun

idc what people say

[hexed mango]

i rate it morbin/morbius

[rocky kraken]

i was like 11 and it was great

will the k30 nerf really make it that bad

[hexed mango]

no

[lone wren]

I rate transport helis a 8 out of 10 emus

[solar obsidian]

5 person helicopter is too strong

why cant i counter it ALL by myself

[hexed mango]

skill issue

[solar obsidian]

😄

[lone wren]

Well not to worry with next update

AA buffed

[solar obsidian]

https://tenor.com/view/thriller-michael-jackson-eating-popcorn-watching-gif-5577709

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/view/thriller-michael-jackson-eating-popcorn-watching-gif-5577709

[solar obsidian]

aa buffed, but imagine when slots are taken by everything else

[lone wren]

We will be fine as long AA is under my control

[hexed mango]

ready to never see this again

[solar obsidian]

imperial officer

[hexed mango]

i never enjoy having to play with this bozo

[lone wren]

I like shooting at enemy ants with minigun

Bean beret

[hexed mango]

whats annoying is that this guy once avoided a ban because he was the "#1 player in the game"

[rocky kraken]

bruh

what

[tepid agate]

If you hit tier 100 in the season before all the weekly points are released, can you carry extra ones over to season 2? Or there's no need to do missions?

[hexed mango]

no

[rocky kraken]

when season 1 ends the 2nd starts

[tepid agate]

Ah okay no need to do them then. I think this week's missions and next week's mission I can finish the season pass then take an extended break until season 2 comes

[rocky kraken]

does anyone know if there is a reward for completing them all?

[tepid agate]

I can update when I complete it lol

I think I'm between 70-80 level at the moment

[hexed mango]

im done

[copper fulcrum]

Hi Done, I'm dad.

[hexed mango]

Hi dad

[lone wren]

Purple crossbow for my Purple camo

[tepid agate]

Wow you're lucky no need to even do anymore weekly missions this season

[hexed mango]

im still doing them for the T1 badge

[lone wren]

Morbius do be a sweat lord

Nah jk

[hexed mango]

happy times.

[tepid agate]

Yup that revive glitch happened to me I uploaded it on Twitter some weeks ago

[white geyser]

Haven't played BF 2042 since I took another break, until the next update arrive

[tepid agate]

I think season 2 they will address how they move forward with specialists. That is some exciting news I am waiting for

[hexed mango]

this would of been cool if i killed them

[rocky kraken]

all they got to do is put specialists into some sort of class system

[tepid agate]

I okay more bfv and he'll let loose. Used to think the gameplay is too slow but after watching Saving Private Ryan omg I fell in love with it

[tepid agate]

"all they got to do" lol they haven't done it for almost a year

[hexed mango]

they have other issues

[silver lantern]

Damn a shotgun nerf

Now the mcs is even more shit

[tepid agate]

I know the bigger issue is to get more players back

[hexed mango]

Sadly I can't comment on it really 😅 but it'll come sooner or later
the rework I mean

• Sam, on the topic of specialists

[silver lantern]

The tone changes is already good

New voice lines perhaps?

[tepid agate]

They probably holding onto their tone, movement and appearance rework will win fans over so they don't need to divert the course they have taken

[silver lantern]

I'm hoping Mackay is more serious now

So far irish is the most serious

[tepid agate]

As I always say, when they can sustain more players than BF1, they are on track, when they can sustain more players than BFV, they have nailed it

It could be argued that they are already on track to be honest because the average steam player number increased since season 1

[foggy rivet]

When does the new patch go live exactly?

[silver lantern]

Its updating for me rn

[foggy rivet]

Oh damn. Hmm, I don't have an update pending in EA Desktop. Maybe my time zone...

[hexed mango]

tbh they should buff Rao's time to hack

as a counter

[white geyser]

I'll check BF 2042 tomorrow if it's updating do to the rework map

[silver lantern]

Kaleidoscope 24/7 conquest would be dope

To get players used to it

So far the best map is exposure imo

[arctic grove]

They most likely are

[arctic grove]

Skill issue

[tepid agate]

It'll be like a 9 month old map getting sandbags and cover. Too late in my opinion to get excited

[lone wren]

The change to map would be cool

New tactics

[hexed mango]

such a downer

[tepid agate]

Shame

[silver lantern]

I would like if they switch it out every week

[lone wren]

Don't trust ai on the map though

[silver lantern]

Have one map on repeat for an entire week

[tepid agate]

They are doing the right things but the time frame they can deliver it kills it

[peak hazel]

Lovely spawn

[silver lantern]

Isnt the team smaller now

[hexed mango]

no

[silver lantern]

So most of the team didnt go work on the new BF title?

[hexed mango]

the only new BF title is BF Mobile

being handled by a completely different studio

[tepid agate]

I thought they are committed to 2042, they say

[hexed mango]

yes

[lone wren]

PBX45 is my favourite smg

[tepid agate]

3 more seasons then live service will probably stop

That'll be next May if each season is the same timeframe

[silver lantern]

Wonder how many specialists we getting for s2

[hexed mango]

one.

[tepid agate]

1 each season

[silver lantern]

Hopefully this new one isnt as boring as the s1 specialist

Liz

[silver lantern]

That's cool

[tepid agate]

Scuba Steve specialist is coming for the Naval update

[silver lantern]

So every season we could expect a new map and a map rework?

[hexed mango]

lol

[hexed mango]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[tepid agate]

That's tooooo slow lol

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/PnKm.gif

[silver lantern]

Eh I'm fine with anything tbh

[tepid agate]

Just bring more new maps like exposure

[hexed mango]

with the amount of bug fixes and other changes, ill take 1 map a season

but reddit wont

all reddit does it complain

[silver lantern]

Fuck reddit

They complain about anything

[lone wren]

The only naval map I liked was on bf1

[tepid agate]

One map person is acceptable? Lol I come from a different gaming era 😄

Used to get so much more for what was paid for

[hexed mango]

its free content

[lone wren]

Free

[silver lantern]

Anyways my hope
S2 specialist isnt shit

[hexed mango]

plus, you're getting a bunch of bug fixes and shit

[tepid agate]

I don't count that as new stuff bugs and tweaks should have mostly been fixed shortly after launch

[fallen field]

Can you help me donlowad game on Xbox battlefield 2042

[tepid agate]

They had an update fixing over 400 bugs right? Should need more

[hexed mango]

4.0

[lone wren]

That's a lot of triple A bugs

[hexed mango]

they're the boss fight

[silver lantern]

They cant really fix every single bug
Its impossible

[tepid agate]

They will be counting the copy and paste portal weapons as "new content" also

[lone wren]

Aug is all it matters for me idc how Terrible or op it is

[silver lantern]

New shotguns as well

And pistols

Shotguns especially
Theres only one good shotgun rn

[lone wren]

I don't care for shotguns

And it depends on sidearms

[silver lantern]

M1911 pistol would be cool

[tepid agate]

They still only got 3 pistols 9 months after launch lol

[silver lantern]

They could call it the 2011 for shits and giggles

[lone wren]

What a interesting name for a pistol the MP28

I can't wait till I see some users use the M1 garand in the future

The year 2042

[silver lantern]

MX garand

[tepid agate]

They did that in the portal trailer

[lone wren]

I mean knife vs defibrillator

[silver lantern]

It's a pretty shit weapon in portal tbh

Doesnt feel good to fire

[outer anchor]

boris can your fucking turret actually shoot something instead of making robot noise and doing nothing

[silver lantern]

Ping is beautiful as always

[lone wren]

M1 garand is underwhelming

[outer anchor]

god damn devs need to play their own game

[lone wren]

Excluding ping

[tepid agate]

When the naval update comes they better have a damn tsunami weather map change

[silver lantern]

But literally the bf5 garand was way better than this

[lone wren]

It was like a sniper in the assault class

[silver lantern]

Garand and stg literally smashed all

Did anyone use the welrod tho?

[tepid agate]

Lucky I only got Liz and dozer to get to mastery before the Devs messed with all other specialists

Do you guys wish fortifications were in 2042 like BFV?

I actually enjoy fortifying my base/trenches and preparing for the war

[next onyx]

BAR sounds like a semi from a distance which makes sense but if you underestimate it you're fucked.

I wish they were in the game but I'd rather a functional game before they do anything else.

[foggy rivet]

Anybody know how to check for an update on EA Desktop? Or am I just at the mercy of whenever the app does it itself?

[next onyx]

When the update drops the update should automatically start.

If it doesn't. Restart your computer.

[upbeat sand]

Close your launcher of and on

Just exit it

And reopen

[foggy rivet]

Cheers pals I'll give that a try.

[noble coral]

How late will the patch drop today?

[next onyx]

It drops in 4 hours.

[upbeat sand]

Around 3 hours I think

[next onyx]

Yeah beanie being on console it's kind of a habit I have.

[hexed mango]

3 hours and 10 minutes

[noble coral]

Oke

[next onyx]

If the game doesn't update. Restart your console.

[upbeat sand]

https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/timezone/utc

[next onyx]

Nice to know that habit extends there.

[upbeat sand]

If your on steam and the game is trying to download but is t

You need to run steam with admin permission

[foggy rivet]

Oh I see lmao the patch hasn't dropped yet.

Been busy trying to troubleshoot this client and it's not even out yet, I am an idiot.

[lone wren]

Is the BAR getting transferred to the 2042 sector

[next onyx]

As far as we know. No.

And hopefully it stays like that because 1942 Bar is fucking busted.

[hidden sand]

Need that modern BAR

[next onyx]

It's just extremely easy to use. Basically a 300 rpm BSV.

As cool as the HCAR would be cool to see again.

[lone wren]

300 rpm u say

Chauchat

[safe sable]

Since when does Sundance only have one scatter grenade?😂 I go out of town and come back it’s different

[hexed mango]

it was changed in 1.1

update 1.2 releases <t:1659427200:R> [<t:1659427200:T>]

[safe sable]

Damn that sucks

[lone wren]

Chauchat in the year 2042

[safe sable]

But tbh it makes sense. They were kinda broke

[next onyx]

Unlesss they give it extremely heavy recoil and balance it well, Then sure maybe the Hcar would be fair.

[lone wren]

I never knew the BAR was OP in portal

No wonder why I see a lack of 1942

[hidden sand]

The BAR is just very visually satisfying in how it was in BF1, which is what I would want again if it were to return.

The way it was held, the gun bob, and reload animations were just really well done.

Was such a fun one to use.

[lone wren]

I did like the bfv preorder bar in bf1

[next onyx]

Bf5 Bar was my favourite because of its firing sound.

That was a fun gun.

I was waiting for that gun.

Ever since the start of the pacific and I'm glad they made it good.

[hexed mango]

i got RKO'd

[hidden sand]

Do you prefer the quicker ROF or the slower, Way?

[lone wren]

To me the bfv preorder BAR was basically the telescopic BAR but without the scope

The BAR telescopic was a laser in argonne forest if you hold one of the flanking areas

[next onyx]

Fast auto.

[lone wren]

Yup

Have a ammo crate next ro you and you are set

For the anti flank defence

[next onyx]

Nice! Do you find third person gunning easier on the ST chopper?

When using the 30mm.

[hexed mango]

honestly depends

sometimes i use 3rd, sometimes first

usually if im closer, i use 3rd, and from distances i think it helps for accuracy to be in first

i usually fly in 3rd person tho, flying in first is harder

[wide shore]

I always fly helicopters in first person. I can’t fly them at all in third

I fly planes in third

[next onyx]

Yeah here's what I do. Aim for infantry in first but when it comes to bombs i go to third.

Or general free flight.

[hexed mango]

tho first person has a nice bomb cam ngl

[lone wren]

I was a gunner for a stealth heli pilot that drops bombs on super hinds

Destroying everything that spawns

Tanks transports you name it

All destroyed

[amber star]

Hosting a xp farm AAXMYT

[hexed mango]

no

cool until it wasnt

[next onyx]

Honestly the third person bomber sight is less disorientating.

It's good if you can get used to the first person sight but third person is more straight forward.

[hexed mango]

first person one is only good for long range bombing

yes.

[hidden sand]

I wonder how that 30mm cooldown will be.

[next onyx]

It'll probably the same as regular 30mm.

What do you think of the 50mm changes by the way suika?

I feel like those changes for it make the most sense.

Makes it less of a popular option against infantry.

[arctic grove]

@hexed mango ggs

[hidden sand]

I think it'll help frustrate people enough to stop using it.

Because they won't go on the sprees they could.

I still think it needs to go, but this definitely better than before at least.

[dusky saddle]

Question. Can you grind out progression skins in solo? Like spotting 8,000 enemies with Casper

[hexed mango]

only to T3

[dusky saddle]

T3?

[hexed mango]

mastery

only to the 3rd one, T3

[dusky saddle]

Ah okay, thank you!

[lone wren]

I use the 40 MM grenade launcher instead and use it on infantry mopping

Has little effect on tanks

But it's fun to annoy them

[arctic grove]

I just got this game about two weeks ago and I’m really liking this BF game

[dire quest]

2 hours y'all

[noble coral]

I cannot wait for the patch

[hexed mango]

so wait faster

[noble coral]

I try 😂😂

[dire quest]

Anyone else hosting a 24/7 kaleidoscope server when patch drops?

[last swift]

Breakthrough or Conquest?

[dire quest]

Rush silly

Breakthrough isn't in portal

[noble coral]

Conquest because the flags are on different plases

[hidden sand]

I'm betting there'll be an official 24/7 Kaleidoscope playlist

[noble coral]

I dont think so because its not a new map

[hidden sand]

I mean wouldn't make much sense not too. I'm sure they're going to want as much feedback as possible for it. It was changed quite heavily.

[rocky kraken]

I’m going blind

[hexed mango]

Hi going blind, im joe

@dusky saddle why tf did you send me a friend request

[thin violet]

I mean i got the game on season 1 start and haven’t even played Kaleidoscope once so I hope there’s a 24/7 lol

[hexed mango]

you been playing exodus?

[dusky saddle]

Was just going to ask how the tier system actually works. I’m new to the game and don’t exactly understand it

[thin violet]

Occasional 128 as well but ye

[hexed mango]

for masteries?

like the 8k spots with casper

[dusky saddle]

Those and like, weapon attachments and stuff

[hexed mango]

they're basically just ongoing challenges you can do, and by doing them you can get skins and badges to put on your player profile

[dusky saddle]

I like messing around in co-op with friends, but still wanna actually gain progression stuff

[hexed mango]

for weapon attachments its just kills

you can gain progression in coop, its just limited as i said earlier

[dusky saddle]

Alright sweet! That clears some stuff up 😂 Thanks

[hexed mango]

np

Bracing myself for epic new breakthrough version and unfinished new conquest version

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/Hbdk.gif

[hexed mango]

never lol

[plain marlin]

😔😔

[hexed mango]

cry

[tame cobalt]

About it

[hexed mango]

dont be sad, this is just how things work out sometimes

[tame cobalt]

At least they changed the interior of A1 in cq128

[low saffron]

[hexed mango]

atleast i got dirt tracks

[tame cobalt]

[tame cobalt]

There's a bunch of crates inside that flag now

[tame cobalt]

It's the one that's at the base of the tower

With the other flag at the top

Sooo i guess those 3 sectors they haven't shown will at least have minor changes

[hexed mango]

tbh

i kinda expected more

im not disappointed

i just think there could of been more

[tame cobalt]

Most of the effort went into creating an entirely new section for starting the breakthrough match

[hexed mango]

i think the best parts of the rework are the like checkpoints part, like the completely new area, and then the raised ground

[tame cobalt]

Cuz breakthrough on kale was shit apparently

[hexed mango]

everything else is just a bunch of assets and cosmetic visuals, that are cool, like its cool, its just like eh

[arctic grove]

looks like bf4 assets

[hexed mango]

no

it looks like ur mom

[hexed mango]

huh

[rocky kraken]

DAM

[next onyx]

Bf4 assets not that bad.

[rocky kraken]

Bro

[hexed mango]

fr

[rocky kraken]

I just wanna dive underwater

Please

[hexed mango]

and like Exposure does a great job adding them, so im hopeful Kale will be nicer overall with these assets added

[tame cobalt]

Everything they've shown looks good to me. My only worry is the things they haven't shown

[hexed mango]

however, it just seems like an overall lackluster addition if only one part of the map got real changes to it, besides additions within objects

[hexed mango]

tbh i think they showed all of what its gonna be in the 1.2 video

[rocky kraken]

Well they haven’t shown anything with the other side of kaleidoscope right?

[last swift]

Thought about a 24/7 playlist 😅

[tame cobalt]

nahhhh everything they've shown looks good, not the entire map needed a full re-do like that outpost part

[rocky kraken]

No way they do nothing to that whole side

[hexed mango]

we will find out <t:1659427200:R>

[hexed mango]

where's my fallen building, huh?????????
bozo

[rocky kraken]

Mmmmmm

[hexed mango]

nah it looks good, i just dunno if its gonna be like SUPER good

[tame cobalt]

They've only shown the interior of that tower sector. That flag at the bottom. It now has a bunch of crates inside

[hexed mango]

the map isnt bad

[rocky kraken]

I think the video showing stuff is older than we think

[hexed mango]

but if this is the sort of minimal level of additions to be made for maps, Hourglass is lost.

[rocky kraken]

Maybe just showed the most changed parts

[tame cobalt]

I was under the impression it's quite bad in breakthrough especially the first sector

[hidden sand]

Lucky thing about meshes, can be re-used for a while as long as the texture work is redone

[hexed mango]

like if the changes are just some terrain, and a bunch of assets, i feel like Hourglass and other shit maps will never be fully "fixed" per se

[dire quest]

Going to be hosting a kaleidoscope rush 24/7 server once update drops

[tame cobalt]

Well yeah

[hexed mango]

you wont get to see a lot of the stuff tho

[rocky kraken]

Naw bro skatepark better be a bit different

I hate that place

[hexed mango]

like with skates

Skate.

[rocky kraken]

It’s empty and bland

I hate it

[hexed mango]

you are empty and bland

<3

[last swift]

[rocky kraken]

Frock

[hexed mango]

damn gecko

[tame cobalt]

This is what I'm saying. And that area that's the first sector in rush. So open and bad

[rocky kraken]

On the bright side

[hexed mango]

you're S∞+1 thats crazy

[rocky kraken]

Maybe they are surprising us

[hexed mango]

im S∞+∞

[tame cobalt]

[last swift]

I am already in season 8

[hexed mango]

now. that would be EPIC.

[rocky kraken]

We honestly deserve somewhat of a surprise

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/bDu2T.gif

[tame cobalt]

People on reddit will be surprised at the areas they haven't shown alright. But not in a good way

[hexed mango]

lmao

[rocky kraken]

Well when was the first preview for kaleidoscope rework put out?

[tame cobalt]

Idk, but the last preview was put out yesterday and still showed the same sectors as before

[hexed mango]

ye thats why im :(

[rocky kraken]

Well maybe

Idk I feel like they would change stuff since they announced it

[hexed mango]

maybe that video was old!

[tame cobalt]

That one sector of renewal also wasn't shown. Because it's not part of the breakthrough layout

Soo it's kinda clear what their strat is

[rocky kraken]

What’s their stray

Strat

[tame cobalt]

Make the maps great for breakthrough and hope the changes make conquest better too

[rocky kraken]

Oh

[hexed mango]

Breakthrough Supreme

[rocky kraken]

I like conquest more

[hexed mango]

invalid opinion

[rocky kraken]

Listen every time I play breakthrough I get a horrible team and lose by 900 tickets

[tame cobalt]

I love Conquest ngl

But it's the only mode that's played in my region

[rocky kraken]

I get insta loss

[hexed mango]

tbh i dont like playing BT for 2 reason

1. terrible vehicle balance
2. stupid sweats

[rocky kraken]

Bsvm campers on the hourglass skyscrapers

[hexed mango]

ill probably start playing CQ more

[tame cobalt]

Inb4 you don't

[hexed mango]

what

[next onyx]

Exodus conquest lesh go.

Breakthrough is cancer with the vehicles.

[hexed mango]

yes

[tame cobalt]

Once you're too used to the breakthrough pacing it's probably hard to get in the groove with conquest

[next onyx]

I'd rather farm bots than farm players in the ST heli.

[hexed mango]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[next onyx]

Because at least they don't feel the frustration of being killed by it.

[hexed mango]

i like not having to run in bt as much

[next onyx]

Conquest might be a bit slower paced but it's not like you can't get more kills on it.

[hexed mango]

indeed

[tame cobalt]

tbh i never run far in conquest. There's always another way

Whether that's vehicles or parachute/wingsuit

Or zipline

[hexed mango]

perhaps

however i usually run Rao

[tame cobalt]

But on some maps like renewal cq128, i really feel the badly designed spaces between flags

[hexed mango]

its Kale rework day!

1 hour!

[tame cobalt]

Pog

[hexed mango]

gop

[tame cobalt]

6 hours for me

[full burrow]

does this full speed auto parachute deploy deployy we will see more people "glitch" splatting on the ground and then being uprite

[tame cobalt]

It's time to go to work

[full burrow]

happened to me yesterday

[hexed mango]

imagine

[full burrow]

I thought it was a sundance but I think it was just a high speed entry

[hexed mango]

what

you talking about the auto deploy parachute?

[full burrow]

in notes it says high speed deploy will no longer result in fall damage

[hexed mango]

like when you fall and you're skydiving it will no longer auto deploy parachute too late

[tame cobalt]

I have mastered the art of parachuting at high altitude to get into position, then dropping all the way down and parachuting again the last second

And getting killed instantly anyway

[hexed mango]

imagine dying

i dont have to imagine, it happens too much

[full burrow]

and something happened to me where I think they deployed just in time after going rly fast and it looked like the went splat/prone at the ground but then it caught up and they were on their feet

[tame cobalt]

Lol

[hexed mango]

L

[tame cobalt]

Game made an oopsie

[low timber]

Hopefully though the auto parachute won’t open from just jumping from container to container in Manifest like it used to before it broke.

[next onyx]

Parachutes are shit.

[full burrow]

I wish my parachute would open more often

[next onyx]

With the in game input latency it worsens it.

[full burrow]

trying to get into para to fly while not at a big drop

[hexed mango]

man i swear ive never experienced like actually shit input in this game

i cant relate

[tame cobalt]

same

[next onyx]

It's something with the engine. Something is causing to act like this.

[hexed mango]

why doesnt it happen to me then

[tame cobalt]

[hexed mango]

[tame cobalt]

I didnt know she spots herself

[tame cobalt]

Return of the wallhack queen

[full burrow]

im like mastery 60

[hexed mango]

i might have to go back to playing paik ngl

[tame cobalt]

I tested her yesterday after reading the notes and yeah she spots people too short

[next onyx]

You probably just don't notice it as much.

[full burrow]

but yeah half a sec scan was "a bit" low, 0.6 would be ge a great touch

[tame cobalt]

Needs to last a little longer

[hexed mango]

ye it always was

[full burrow]

0.85 seems like a lot

[hexed mango]

im glad its being buffed

[tame cobalt]

Pog

[rocky kraken]

Will wildcat be broken

[hexed mango]

shes gonna be op in CQC now

[tame cobalt]

Probably gonna get nerfed to be like 0.7 seconds

[full burrow]

@rocky kraken not really

[tame cobalt]

They always gotta overdo it

[full burrow]

its only been buffed for its AA capabilities

[frank stratus]

It's morbin time.

[low timber]

So did Morb

Marse, how are you doing that?

[full burrow]

ahahah

[foggy rivet]

Oh lmao

[hexed mango]

[hexed mango]

for countdown, <t:millis:R>

[full burrow]

t:meow:r

[hexed mango]

Timestamps

<t:ms> for basic stamp
<t:ms:R> for count till timestamp, shows the human readable time till a certain stamp
<t:ms:D> shows the human readable date, no time
<t:ms:T> shows the human readable time, no date
<t:ms:F> shows the full human readable stamp, day, date, and time

this is the txt file i have saved of it

[low timber]

There is a pic that explains that Morb

[tame cobalt]

[full burrow]

"human readable date" fuck you im from mars

so I might as well be from fucking mars

Well let's see who got a rework da

[outer anchor]

boris next for sure

hes useless

[grand prism]

That's the thing

[grizzled whale]

they better not touch mackay

unless they give him back his mackay hopping

[hexed mango]

give him a buff so that his grapple hook murders everyone every second

[rocky kraken]

Agreee

[grizzled whale]

good

instant kill mode

[outer anchor]

like scorpion in mortal kombat

[rocky kraken]

Woodys revenge

I call it a rework on the whole specialist style and voice tone lol

[tame cobalt]

Factual

[grizzled whale]

honestly

[grand prism]

But tbf

[hexed mango]

15 minutes

[grizzled whale]

the grapling hook should be an instant kill

[grand prism]

Dozer might get his look and voice changed

[grizzled whale]

if you manage to hit someone with it you deserve it to be a kill

[hexed mango]

you should be able to grapple onto players

its being nerfed

[violet meteor]

I went to a fast exp server where only emp grenades were allowed. Killed a mod with a knife cuz I didn't know the rule and they gave me a warning. They then proceeded to knife kill me a couple times whenever I walked up to them.

[hexed mango]

read the damn patch notes bozo

Nice

I'll be hosting a kaleidoscope conquest 24/7 server once update drops. Bots of course to help fill lobby but it'll be the 64 player map with 128 players

ah yes communism

Damn hypocrite

[radiant lynx]

I did. It wasn't mentioned

On kale

So like

Cool

They've adjusted the 30MM cannon's overheat rate and are seeing what else they can do to make it more balanced.

Remove it

Oh boy

Thank god, it overheated way too quickly

[hexed mango]

no it comes out at <t:1659427200:t>

You mean the overheat took way too long?

[torpid falcon]

Where can I find patch notes?

[hexed mango]

#game-news

[next onyx]

Check game news.

[torpid falcon]

I found it overheated too much

too quickly

[rocky kraken]

Isn’t there usually some stuff that isnt put in the patch notes

Bruh

[torpid falcon]

Thank you!

[violet meteor]

Or the 2042 website

[rocky kraken]

Well it overheats faster now

[next onyx]

It barely overheated Syko that was the problem.

[plain marlin]

😭

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/bqkjK.gif

[next onyx]

On what would overheat a 30mm cannon usually, On that it lasted what. 1.6x longer?

[dire quest]

YouTubers always find the hidden patch notes of course

[hexed mango]

i will find joe in the notes

[plain marlin]

DannyonPC

[torpid falcon]

Oh, must've been the damage I was thinking of then haha. I just found the 30mm underpowered for the Wildcat when against Helicopters

[hexed mango]

6 minutes and 30 seconds remaining....

[rocky kraken]

Wildcat got buffed

Wait

[torpid falcon]

Good

[violet meteor]

Don't even matter. Urban players don't die.

[rocky kraken]

Hopefully there is 24/7

[dire quest]

Bots can fly planes now too

[rocky kraken]

Because

[plain marlin]

That’s why you use AGMs or bombs

[torpid falcon]

What you mean? When I run the Wildcat I find the 30mm underpowered against helicopters

[next onyx]

You mean the 40mm?

[rocky kraken]

What

[next onyx]

And well. The 40mm kinda functions different.

[violet meteor]

Wildcat is great against helicopters

It's a jam

[rocky kraken]

The cannon on the wildcat is pretty good

[plain marlin]

Oh I thought you talking about the stealth heli 30mm 😭

[low timber]

Wildcat has 30mm, 40mm and 57mm

[hexed mango]

sub 5 minutes

[next onyx]

The more you stray away from using the 30mm AA rounds the less effective you'll be against helicopters.

OH.

[radiant lynx]

So glad they buffed the wildcat AA. Should be interesting now

[next onyx]

When 30mm is mentioned I think of the Cannons not the AA rounds.

[rocky kraken]

I will end all Hinds lives

[torpid falcon]

Lmao nah, when I use Wildcat I just get spanked by endless hacks and EMP's

[violet meteor]

I love my nitebird agm tho

[torpid falcon]

Haha I'm talking bout the 30mm AA cannons

[violet meteor]

She's a sassy bird

[white geyser]

I barely use the 57mm for the wildcat tank and spend more time using 30mm, because it doesn't ran out of ammos only overheat

[next onyx]

Get an AI bot in your wildcat with the 60mm flak pod.

[rocky kraken]

Tank needs buff

[plain marlin]

Yeah I feel like the EMP lasts too long

[next onyx]

40mm I like because of the general effectiveness.

[plain marlin]

True they die to everything

[violet meteor]

Skill issue

[next onyx]

It's a shame they nerfed the 57MM.

[torpid falcon]

OHHH you're talking about the Stealth Helicopter 30MM?

[rocky kraken]

Tanks die to nightbirds 😦

[radiant lynx]

Why does the stealth helicopter have a emp blast m

[next onyx]

Yeah I was thinking of the 30mm explosive cannon.

Fucked if I know Rico. It needs to be removed.

[plain marlin]

Fr

[hexed mango]

3 minutes remaining.... hype up

[next onyx]

The EMP dart kills all form of counterplay.

[torpid falcon]

Haha I meant the Wildcat 30mm, my bad. Yeah glad the changes for the stealth heli are here

[next onyx]

There was this wildcat yesterday that was on my ass.

Had to hide behind B on orbital.

Just doing the sniping with those 30mm cannons.

[rocky kraken]

I GET TO SEE TREES IN GAME YESS

[white geyser]

I'm keeping my wildcat 30mm, if I want to switch to 40mm or 57mm if I'm fighting the tank

[hexed mango]

2 minutes remaining....

[rocky kraken]

Please

Dice

Be good

I will

[next onyx]

I wish the 40MM functioned like a bofors.

[low timber]

How much does the Wildcat AA missile range get increased? As currently it’s 450m

[next onyx]

Weak splash but it does some damage to keep the heli away.

[rocky kraken]

600

[next onyx]

They're buffing it to 600M.

[plain marlin]

600

[hexed mango]

1 minute

[low timber]

Neat

[white geyser]

They need to buff the 30mm, because it doesn't feel like a 30mm it's like a 20mm

[rocky kraken]

Guys get ready

[next onyx]

A 20 to 25MM would actually be more accurate.

[bright wharf]

Guys less than 60 seconds

[hexed mango]

prepare for takeoff!

[rocky kraken]

How bugs the update I’m wondering in storage

[plain marlin]

On the stealth?

[next onyx]

On the Wildcat AA.

[rocky kraken]

How big update I wonder

[violet meteor]

I love when players not flying the condor or in the condor at all tell me how to fly it in chat -_-

[plain marlin]

Bro god dammit 😭

[white geyser]

The wildcat tank

[low timber]

Someone check portal just in case for a weapons drop

[rocky kraken]

I hope they do

[hexed mango]

https://tenor.com/QgMb.gif

[rocky kraken]

But I doubt

[torpid falcon]

I'm so keen to use the Wildcat with the new patch. Going to be so fun shooting down Helicopters now, and a lot easier with the update

[next onyx]

Actually yeah Marse that's a good reason too.
