battlefield-2042

[violet meteor]

If it was negative it's because you took it that way. Your problem not mine.

[arctic grove]

I guess. Not sure how its p2w

[hexed mango]

im still not buying it

im currently mad at whoever manages the shop

[agile tapir]

You said “I should care why” kinda rude but ok

[violet meteor]

How's that rude

[arctic grove]

I wouldnt recommend it if you dont main Boris

[upper socket]

Question:Whats the best specialist

[violet meteor]

I'm asking why I should care about other people's opinions that do not directly impact me

[hexed mango]

i literally just said im not buying it

[hexed mango]

Rao

[agile tapir]

Because that’s called bein a smart alec

[violet meteor]

Keep up

[solid imp]

Yes! We have a winner

[agile tapir]

Didn’t have to get smart no doubt you probably are smart but didn’t have to come at me like that all I’m saying

[violet meteor]

Hippy boris ain't bad

[edgy oriole]

[upper socket]

Is boris glld gameplaywise

[hexed mango]

no

[violet meteor]

If you play helicopter alot it's MacKay

[upper socket]

Im used to playing sundance

[hexed mango]

mackay is good normally as well tho

[arctic grove]

Its Bf4 face mask

[agile tapir]

Angel is the best

[toxic wigeon]

Doesn’t mean it’s good

[violet meteor]

Mackay progresses with kills from a height advantage, so helicopter kills count

Rao is good for that too when your helicopter takes damage

[hexed mango]

yeah but actual gameplay wise, mackay is good outsiode of a heli

[edgy oriole]

MCDADDY BEST

[violet meteor]

I'm not disputing anything, just letting people know

[toxic wigeon]

Mackay is easy to t1

[violet meteor]

If I'm boots on ground it's Rao for shao

[toxic wigeon]

Just play as him lol

[agile tapir]

Casper is good for sniping

[toxic wigeon]

Nah

[drowsy ruin]

Come check out 1942 vs 2042

[toxic wigeon]

Opposite

Casper is offensive

[agile tapir]

You can use his drone and don’t have to move

[violet meteor]

Play him in a helicopter and rank 2 things at the same time :P

[upper socket]

C5 drones are too fun

[agile tapir]

Yeah you are an offensive sniper

[toxic wigeon]

Casper is weird lol

[solid imp]

Have armor or med pen equipped while Mackay in a heli ;)

[toxic wigeon]

Used to main him

[violet meteor]

Almost like the specialist is a sniper

[edgy oriole]

i use mcdaddy for sweet flanks and faster strafe for op pvp moments

[solid imp]

Rank 3 things at once

[sharp marten]

Casper is S tier

[upper socket]

If you have c5 with it

[violet meteor]

As a passenger I assume lol

[agile tapir]

First time playing Casper had slot of fun with him I ping a lot of enemies and yet my teammates act like they don’t acknowledge it

[solid imp]

You just need it in your loadout

[violet meteor]

Hm

[sharp marten]

Naw I don’t c5 drone because I’m not a degent

[toxic wigeon]

Casper is easy to t1

[agile tapir]

So they die everytime even tho I’m pinging

[toxic wigeon]

I haven’t done it yet cause Its boring as hell

[hexed mango]

cause nobody uses minimap

[upper socket]

I only do it to tank campers

[toxic wigeon]

But I’m like halfway

[edgy oriole]

I think using caspers drone for just recon is fun af ngl. i had some funny clips of people watching

[hexed mango]

casper's drone should be buffed to 3d spot enemies

[toxic wigeon]

Nah

Well idk

[sharp marten]

Facts

[upper socket]

Thad be a little op

[agile tapir]

I’m focusing on angel ima get him max mastery them I’m mailing Mackay next

[sharp marten]

Ur should

[white geyser]

I haven't use armor one of the specialist have, since I got busy one of the specialist before Lis showed up

[hexed mango]

it should be

[hexed mango]

irish?

[white geyser]

Yeah

[sharp marten]

I’m trying to get Irish to T-1

[hexed mango]

really easy on exposure bt

[arctic grove]

@edgy oriole I stole your look

[hexed mango]

how dare you

[agile tapir]

I think tanks need a buff they blow up to easy

[upper socket]

Hell naw

[violet meteor]

I unlocked the crossbow a few days ago and haven't touched it lol

[hexed mango]

yea they do

[sharp marten]

Naw he’s right tanks do need a buff a huge buff

[upper socket]

Outta ya mind

[hexed mango]

tanks need a big fucking buff

[edgy oriole]

[toxic wigeon]

There needs to be ammo stations around the map

[hexed mango]

but lis also needs a buff

[violet meteor]

Tanks need better smoke

[agile tapir]

Tanks definitely need a armor buff and stronger shells I’ll shoot right by them and only get a god damn hit marker

[sharp marten]

No

[toxic wigeon]

Yes

[hexed mango]

nah cause they have infinite ammo

[upper socket]

Yep

[violet meteor]

Reactive armor or something

But tanks 110% need a buff

[sharp marten]

Reactive armor or APS or both

[violet meteor]

Mobile coffins

[keen loom]

[white geyser]

I only use reactive armor from BF3 portal, but 2042.... nah

[upper socket]

Whats the best wepon in 2042

[hexed mango]

MBT is just kinda lame, and weak

Wildcat does a better job at being a tank, than then MBT does

[violet meteor]

The one you enjoy playing

[white geyser]

I like the PP28 rifle

[sharp marten]

If you don’t think tanks need a buff you just don’t want to get bodied by a tank

[upper socket]

I mean in yalls opinion

[toxic wigeon]

Pp28 is good

[hexed mango]

so, i propose, that the MBT shells do more, like they have bigger values and uses

[toxic wigeon]

Lot of ammo

[hexed mango]

PP-29 you mean

[agile tapir]

Against a heli tanks need a buff that’s bs they can blow me up easy as pie but you can’t do nothing to them

[toxic wigeon]

Oh yeah

I’m dumb

[violet meteor]

Depends on the weapon type

Best weapon don't mean shit if you have poor accuracy

[toxic wigeon]

I used the m5a3

[hexed mango]

IMO, M5 is great

[agile tapir]

The best weapon AR is the scar

[toxic wigeon]

With the short range

[hexed mango]

PP is amazing

[agile tapir]

The scar hands down I just unlocked it first game nothing but headshots

[hexed mango]

i currently use M5A3, short barrel, standard ammo/extended

[fiery shoal]

mp9/k30 up close, otherwise BSV for everything else outside of sniping.. and dont snipe

[white geyser]

PP28 carries 50 magazine and where's the other rifle that also carries 50 mag??

[hexed mango]

fusion holo + BCG

[agile tapir]

Just melting people can’t wait till I get the drum mag on it

[upper socket]

As the name suggests, i love the ntw

[hexed mango]

yes

[violet meteor]

So you played one round and it's the best in the game

[hexed mango]

tbh scar is cool, but i like M5 more

[toxic wigeon]

Scar is good

Same

[violet meteor]

Bsvm is fun, or the default lmg on semi auto

[agile tapir]

Yup I know the scar is strong one game is all I needed to see that

[violet meteor]

AK is pretty ballsy

[agile tapir]

I love the AK too I agree

[sharp marten]

Man I can’t wait for those portal guns I want the ACR

[agile tapir]

But the AK isn’t messing with the scar especially long range

[violet meteor]

Gvt 45-70 is good if you can nail the shot

[hexed mango]

GVT is sexy

[toxic wigeon]

The bp cosmetic for it is my fav in the battle pass

[upper socket]

Suprised no one said the 12m auto, see it shred all of the time

[hexed mango]

yes

[wide shore]

Don’t ever try to use Lis on a portal map. You will never be able to ADS

[violet meteor]

The ac42 is fun

If you like burst fire

[hexed mango]

with sfar

[agile tapir]

What are you guys playstyle do y’all defend, play for kills, take enemies objective, or what?

[wide shore]

Is it only the SFAR?

[hexed mango]

anything with a UGL

[violet meteor]

I revive

[white geyser]

God damn it, I couldn't find the name of the other rifle that can carry 50 mags

[wide shore]

Ugh

[violet meteor]

And ptfo

[upper socket]

I push into groups of up to 5

[hexed mango]

i kill then die

if i play rao, i hack, and die

[agile tapir]

I do too but I play for kills I could care less about the obj I call myself more of a support player killing the enemies getting them out the way while going for the revives

[upper socket]

So i guess offensive, take em all with me

[edgy oriole]

what is pl out on that network thing in game @hexed mango

[violet meteor]

Or I nitebird the whole round

[agile tapir]

That’s nice

[upper socket]

Just need to be faster at flicking my crosshair on to em

[agile tapir]

True I feel that

[hexed mango]

packet loss out, means the server isnt receiving your packets

[violet meteor]

But it's battlefield not cod, so ultimately I'm capturing points and trying to get top squad

[edgy oriole]

it is fucking me rn.

[hexed mango]

blame the server

[edgy oriole]

i already rage quit it

[solid imp]

Because that's like being the guy who uses the k30 and then tbags.

[upper socket]

Tryna figure out a good wepon for pushing groups, thinking the k30

[edgy oriole]

no more zero hour cq 24/7 for me

[upper socket]

Ye they are annoying

Is the k30 still good after the nerf?

[agile tapir]

Na a shotgun bro

Shotgun way to go

[solid imp]

12m auto I'm convinced has a bug in the stats table

[upper socket]

Thinking mcs

[agile tapir]

Yes

[wide shore]

This is interesting

[solid imp]

https://c.tenor.com/8sfnX_WAVYIAAAAM/choujeki-eating-popcorn.gif

[white geyser]

Finally I found it, the P90 rifle that one can carry 50 mags, why not add that weapon for 2042 since it's not in the game

[violet meteor]

Bsvm is still solid once you get used to the update

Full auto that shit

[edgy oriole]

better at short range but seems to have been good nerf for long range. i have to test it more tho.

[upper socket]

Sounding like the average overwatch fan

[agile tapir]

Bro people be shooting my medium long range with that damn shotgun

[violet meteor]

Skill issue

Get out of the way

[white geyser]

I wish they didn't nerf the shotgun, it would have been a lot of fun using it as a sniper rifle

[violet meteor]

That's what sniper rifles are for

[agile tapir]

Well I only died to it a few times but it was still a big “WTF” moment lol

[white geyser]

I still remember bad company 2, when players using shotguns as a sniper rifles from long distances

[violet meteor]

Cuz shovels don't exist in the year 2042

[agile tapir]

Omg 😭😭😭😭😭😭

[violet meteor]

They were outlawed in the landscape war of 2036

[solid imp]

Ohhh so the original tag was Landscape Architect of War, got it

[mental delta]

I want to see BFV squads

And call-in system

[violet meteor]

Well go play 5 then it's still populated

And you can bring a shovel with you

[white geyser]

Having BFV in the portal, probably not because 1942 and BFV are both WW2

[lone wren]

Hatchets

[violet meteor]

Don't ram bad ideas down our throats then

[edgy oriole]

i am having the worst lag today boy oh boy

https://tenor.com/view/white-chicks-marlon-wayans-shawn-wayans-im-gonna-have-abf-bf-gif-5090912

[white geyser]

Just update 1942 portal and add some BFV content

[solid imp]

Emperor Boris had enough of extensive gardens and the ostentatious tulips. He enlisted the aid of Minister Rao to see to the elimination of shovels everywhere..

[arctic grove]

its burst

[toxic wigeon]

I liked building in 5

[agile tapir]

I want bf to have rare skins come out with a dope ass cosmetic for a specialist once or twice and don’t come back out with it for a long time or never again

[toxic wigeon]

Was sad it wasn’t in here

[arctic grove]

I am a objective capturer, my K/D ratio is usually 1 for 1. What I want to know is.......who are these people who get 50 kills 0 deaths, HOW SWAY!?

[violet meteor]

Hey guys grab your shovels so we can build a pillbox on breakaway

It'll be reaaaallllyyyy fun

[lone wren]

M2 carbine

[agile tapir]

I’d like to have me some rare skins but battlefield don’t operate like that

[violet meteor]

What do ya mean there are rare skins

[toxic wigeon]

Rare skins is the last thing needed

lol

[violet meteor]

At least they are labeled rare lol

[toxic wigeon]

He means limited time

And never return

[violet meteor]

We? Are we devs now?

[agile tapir]

Right

[solid imp]

2042 the trading card game

[violet meteor]

Wow I thought shovels were bad but you keep topping yourself

[arctic grove]

if you want that go play Red Alert

[violet meteor]

Careful he doesn't like being told what to do

[solid imp]

He reminds me of the usuals we had around here about 5 months ago

[lone wren]

I do wonder if one day we will have a Aussie specialist

[arctic grove]

Don't come to Battlefield 2042 discord talking u want a different game, we need to put respect on DICE name Periodt! 🔥

[violet meteor]

With a big knife

[arctic grove]

lol

[solid imp]

But they just got rid of the one liners lol..

[violet meteor]

They are coming back

Soonish

[toxic wigeon]

Real

I agree

[lone wren]

Well we don't need the one liners we just need a story

[agile tapir]

Battlefield should let u make like a clan like back when call of duty came out with faze… and in it you can invite earn more cosmetics that are hard and Grindy to get very rewarding sorta thing

[toxic wigeon]

bruh

[keen loom]

No

[lone wren]

Nah

[toxic wigeon]

Didn’t bf4 have an alliance thing

[arctic grove]

im teasin guys Battlefield is good, can use improvements, i appreciate the updates, its working, the community make good arguments and developers do listen.

[toxic wigeon]

In the companion app

[agile tapir]

Ik I’m just thinking of things they could do to spice the game up 😭😭

[solid imp]

Platoons

[violet meteor]

You should be careful about what ya say here

[toxic wigeon]

Yeah

[lone wren]

Yeah nah m8 the clan thing is not a thing we should endure having in 2042

[keen loom]

I leave that to COD & COD only

[solid imp]

I miss platoons for the organization they added.. in fact I simply miss Battlelog

[toxic wigeon]

True

They need to revive companion app

[violet meteor]

Wait, what's stopping you from making an fps in your style

[toxic wigeon]

EA will copy strike him

[solid imp]

Doesn't have to be BF

Just go release a game and prove us all wrong

[arctic grove]

there is NO WAY 1 nerd....can code battlefield, you need 50 and 5 managers that hound them

[toxic wigeon]

Dude I talk to on discord is making nam game

Huge map

Been working on it for like two years lol

[solid imp]

Shhhh we all know that, don't tell him

[arctic grove]

lol

[toxic wigeon]

It’s possible

What a lot of indie games struggle with is animations

[toxic wigeon]

And realistic humans

Is what I notice

[sullen violet]

https://tenor.com/view/funny-animals-sweeping-cleaning-raccoon-cleaning-the-floors-gif-11684702

[keen loom]

Uh oh

Thanks Zep

[agile tapir]

They would do a Rambo collab Rambo in battlefield 🥹🥹🥹😘😘

[toxic wigeon]

No Collabs pls

[violet meteor]

Being a mod is a thankless job

[agile tapir]

Yes collabs 🥹🥹

[toxic wigeon]

Collabs ruined gaming

[keen loom]

Zepplin is best mod

[agile tapir]

No they did not they bettered it

[toxic wigeon]

Not really

[arctic grove]

the guy who worked on Skyrim is making a mythical game with rock music. It looks good because of Unreal Engine 5 its indie, but how much content and depth can the game have with such few employees

[agile tapir]

Well it is controversial but I’m on the side that says it bettered it

[toxic wigeon]

Motivation

[arctic grove]

true!

[agile tapir]

Awww hell naw Skyrim?? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

A garbage can of a game called Skyrim and elder scrolls online

[arctic grove]

Skyrim is not Garbage

[toxic wigeon]

Lol

[agile tapir]

Definitely a mid game it’s only an A not even a double A game it’s garbage

[toxic wigeon]

Your gaming takes are wack man

Skyrim is legendary

Elder scrolls are legendary games

[torpid lotus]

common sense has left the chat

[arctic grove]

Skyrim is good, you must be mistaken I think you mean Fall Out 4.

[agile tapir]

No it’s not elden rings is legendary

[torpid lotus]

Skyrim is amazing

[agile tapir]

Elden rings is better

Hell even DC universe online is better than Skyrim

[torpid lotus]

Skyrim was pinnacle at its time

[toxic wigeon]

Different genres

[torpid lotus]

still a great game today

[toxic wigeon]

Both rpgs but very very different

[outer anchor]

im about to buy a nintendo switch and play mario kart

[toxic wigeon]

Hmm

[agile tapir]

Skyrim shouldn’t even exist it hasn’t contributed to anything in gaming history PERIOD.

[toxic wigeon]

Bruh

Are you trolling

[arctic grove]

Skyrim had a Game of Thrones trailer before there was even a Game of Thrones. I wish I gave the game a chance but I judged the graphics smh.

[white geyser]

I'll wait for overwatch 2 until it comes out before I buy it, because I need to some new content I only know they said they add PvE

[agile tapir]

I will say Skyrim has the best voice lines ever

Flawless

[toxic wigeon]

It’s free

[violet meteor]

Skyrim makes me want to watch Gamerpoop

[agile tapir]

That Harry Potter game that’s getting ready to come out will be legendary again better than Skyrim you can’t compete just can’t

[toxic wigeon]

Harry Potter will flop

[arctic grove]

Skyrim makes me want to level up and pay child support

[dawn finch]

Hey, can you still spam motion sensors in 2042?

[violet meteor]

You can if you don't like the Harry Potter universe lol

[white geyser]

Also we waited for how many years, for Ubisoft to finally finish skull & bones and they reveal the release date too

[agile tapir]

No it won’t

[edgy oriole]

1 at a time

[toxic wigeon]

Kids game lol

[violet meteor]

Gamerinio Floppious

[agile tapir]

Ubisoft is trash

[violet meteor]

🪄

[toxic wigeon]

True

[agile tapir]

Rainbow six trashhhhhhhhhhhh

Their biggest game is so horrible and miserable

[violet meteor]

Siege?

[agile tapir]

Yes siege

[toxic wigeon]

I don’t like round shooters

[agile tapir]

That piece of shit game

[violet meteor]

Shits hard

[toxic wigeon]

Like csgo

Never got the appeal

[white geyser]

I still play For Honor they made and they still updating the game, pls a new warrior came out few days ago

[agile tapir]

People shooting thru walls shots don’t register head glitching out the ass fuck that game

[edgy oriole]

i only played a couple rounds and i liked it. community too sus for me tho

[violet meteor]

It's high risk high reward that's the appeal

[agile tapir]

Headshots don’t register *

[violet meteor]

So noobs get shit on

[toxic wigeon]

Wait for honor still has support

I thought it ended a few years ago

[agile tapir]

For honor is good

[violet meteor]

Nah they just released stuff for For Honor

It's still poppin

[arctic grove]

The best developers are DICE, 2K, Rockstar Games, I would put CD Project but they not yet

[white geyser]

No

[arctic grove]

and Naughty Dog

[toxic wigeon]

Isn’t 2k publishers

[arctic grove]

I think ur right

[agile tapir]

2k is trash fuckin inconsistent I miss the old 2ks when they were consistent it’s because of the stupid archetypes

2k15 thru 17

[arctic grove]

DICE or Rockstar Games?

[violet meteor]

cough Naughty Dog cough cough

[toxic wigeon]

I don’t like sports games

I prefer watching them

[agile tapir]

Madden is definitely trash who tf plays madden anymore the flopped hard on that genre 😂😂

[white geyser]

This is there new warrior they added for the new faction called outlanders

[arctic grove]

Rockstar have no shame, its been almost 10 years they milking this funky ass GTA 5. No remaster of RDR2. The cheek.

[toxic wigeon]

Rip RDO

[agile tapir]

They stopped giving af about red dead 2 after 5 months it was released

Red dead boring as hell

[arctic grove]

after 5 months!? I'm dead lol

[glossy abyss]

Is Portal 1 and 2 worth it on the switch?

[agile tapir]

Had so much god damn potential and wasted it

[glossy abyss]

It’s 20 bucks

[agile tapir]

Yes 5 months

[violet meteor]

Sucker punch is good too, for ghost of tsushima and infamous series

[agile tapir]

Agreed

Can’t forget about dying light and uncharted

[glossy abyss]

Red Dead Redemption 2 is a already complete game with 50 hours of gameplay, 150 if you want to 100% the game

[white geyser]

I heard rockstar said they're remastering RDR 1 and GTA 4, but I wanted remake not remastered. The difference though is that the remake is more updated than the remastered and has slight changes too

[agile tapir]

Gears of war left 4 dead the good ol days

[arctic grove]

it looks good, but 30fps and they choose PVP maps for you. You can't choose a specific mode u want, they choose what ur playing, RDR2 brooo. thats not it.

[agile tapir]

Most remaster games not all end up bein shit

Pure shit balls

Fucking scams

[toxic wigeon]

Got cancelled

[glossy abyss]

It would be awesome to see RD and GTA4 be remaked, but these games are already almost perfect

[toxic wigeon]

They’re focusing on gta 6

[arctic grove]

I wouldnt mind a remaster of older fallout titles

at least with Battlefield if u want Breakthrough u get that, or ALL OUT warfare etc. RDR2 online PVP u are playing what they want randomly make u join, no!

[upper socket]

Fact that will make you feel old: switch has been out for 4-5 years, ps4/xbox1 has been out for 9

[agile tapir]

Man forget the remasters where the god damn fuck is GTA6

[glossy abyss]

They might be old graphically, but to be honest, they still look really good for 7th gen games

[white geyser]

They never said that

[toxic wigeon]

Yes it did

[agile tapir]

It did get cables

Canceled

[toxic wigeon]

They got cancelled like a month ago

[arctic grove]

Add KV2 death tank

[agile tapir]

Anyway I’m about to go play some more conquest level up this scar anyone wanna add me PSN- RellGlockk

[white geyser]

Some people need to make up their mind and make an actual answer, not arguing about it

[arctic grove]

I dont like the specialists cus its too much like cod

[white geyser]

Here's an idea, rockstar need to pick one game to remake the old one, either RDR 1 or GTA 4 but they have to choose one only to make it a remake

[arctic grove]

rdr 1 would make more sense

for ppl who played rdr2 firs

and want to continue the story

[violet meteor]

Recap video

Boom

[arctic grove]

without downgraded graphics

[violet meteor]

Hours saved

[white geyser]

If they remake RDR 1, I want to see new contents and bring back undead nightmare as a DLC

[edgy oriole]

my fav feature of this game is throwing a scatter instead of a anti armour grenade even tho the emblem shows that its AA and you die to the vehicle

[upper socket]

Or when you throw an aa at an enemy and you die

[toxic wigeon]

Wonder if battlefield will have what happened to cod

Bo4 was bad

No campaign

Specialists

2042 has same issues

And then modern warfare which released after was one of the best cod games in recent years

[mental delta]

I mean I would like to see the next BF game as an amazing reboot to the franchise but let's be honest the chances it happens are really low

They have to make a huge comeback and bring back some of the most important aspects of BF games to the community like classes, massive amount of content and good maps

[tepid agate]

Anyone see Flakfires Twitter post? So sad for battlefield

[ebon pilot]

why are classes so important

[tepid agate]

👀

Is 2042 your first battlefield?

[arctic grove]

They sure did load BF1 and 4 up

[tepid agate]

So sad to see what's happened 😓

We don't know how lucky we got it back then

Fast forward to today

[ebon pilot]

nope, I played 4 and 1 but 2042 is the first one I've put hundreds of hours in because of open loadouts

[arctic grove]

I know both games had periods of technical or content issues from what I’ve heard but look at those two now

Only problem with them both is they’re on the old premium model

You’ll never experience most of those twos games unless you spend like an additional 30 on it which is a shame

[tepid agate]

You're the perfect customer for 2042. They were targeting that audience for this game.

[ebon pilot]

ok, so who is the other target?

[tepid agate]

People who prefer classes lol

[toxic wigeon]

I don’t really care for specialists

I prefer classes

[outer anchor]

prefer class aswell

I hate the way they look man and their voice lines

they tried to make it so cool

[edgy oriole]

specialist dont bother me but i wouldnt care if the next bf had them or classes.

[toxic wigeon]

Same tbh

[arctic grove]

I don’t mind either system either

[toxic wigeon]

The faceless soldier argument is a weak argument anyway

You can’t even see your character

[outer anchor]

I like the cosmetics

[tepid agate]

It's not a coincidence and it's visible on Steam that more battlefield fans play BF1 and bfv over 2042, even though they stretch back to 6 years old and have no more live service or new content.

[toxic wigeon]

Actually not true

2042 has more players rn

[edgy oriole]

if they keep them maybe next bf will be locked gadgets to certain specialist/class. that would be my guess since thats peoples biggest complaint

[tepid agate]

Are you sure?

[toxic wigeon]

Yeah I think

I checked not long ago

[small ember]

Yeah 2042 does have more players then bfv bf1 on Xbox I know is completely dead while Xbox bfv still has at least 3 full servers in each move all times of day

But for pc idk

[tepid agate]

BFV: 18.8k
BF1: 10.3K
2042: 6.8K

[toxic wigeon]

Actually v has more players rn than 2043

[arctic grove]

I mean to be fair on Steam V does have about 2x more, not to get into the entire one platform thing though, just saying

[toxic wigeon]

When I checked it was middle of day on weekday

[tepid agate]

Yeah it's doesn't cover all platforms but gives us an indication for what's hot and what's not

[ebon pilot]

thank you dice for making the masterkey attachments on the other guns more like the underbarrel shotgun on the M5A3 now i can play the game

[arctic grove]

Reworked kale is pretty fun

[toxic wigeon]

Wide screen lmao

[drowsy shuttle]

i have a lot of respect to the people who got espinoza to tier 1... i mean you guys are mental or psychos, but still respect... cause for me holy shit that is terrible... completed the mission and probably i will never play with him again lol

[tepid agate]

I only have him and Liz left but doubt I'll ever get them to tier1

[arctic grove]

I have just enough kills with Dozer for the tip of the spear skin

I don’t think I’m mentally prepared for that

[keen loom]

[drowsy shuttle]

its my least played specialist... i only have 7 kills with the shield... the ones i did for the mission tonight ahaha... fuck that

[tepid agate]

Customizing is always cool for characters but I think BFV has more soldier customized

[hexed mango]

yes but 2042 skins > V :)

[edgy oriole]

[keen loom]

[hexed mango]

[arctic grove]

2042 skins simply because I find modern to be cooler personally

[drowsy shuttle]

yeah and irish.. i don't think i will get irish to tier 1 either... unless exposure breakthrough 24/7 comes back...

[tepid agate]

I don't care for skins when I have them at mastery I just used the black and red to show my progress lol either I have the skins for free what others have or they purchased them in stores

[arctic grove]

Plate carrier and a ballistic helmet and we’re good

[toxic wigeon]

I don’t really care for t1 specialists

Guns are more important anyway imo

[hexed mango]

or use your playercard and use good skins

win win

[tepid agate]

Just remove "T1" and your sentence is perfect 😄 🍻

[hexed mango]

i think it would be really cool if no matter your skin, the specialist or thing itself had a indicator of your mastery

[drowsy shuttle]

mackay and paik are by far the easiest ones to tier 1... paik might even be the easist...

[toxic wigeon]

Casper is easy just takes a while

[hexed mango]

like a badge or tag or smth

[tepid agate]

I dunno I'd always feel more accomplished running around with something earned than payed for lol

[toxic wigeon]

Mackay you kind of just play normally lol

[hexed mango]

huh?

[toxic wigeon]

Or pilot heli

[drowsy shuttle]

hum yeah... and the fact that you can set the drone in the air and then continue to play helps a lot...

[hexed mango]

you dont pay for your player card badge

you earn those via mastery

[toxic wigeon]

He’s talking about skins

[tepid agate]

You can

[hexed mango]

i meant the badges

like

[toxic wigeon]

You can’t buy badges thou

[hexed mango]

the literal badges for mastery

yeah.

[tepid agate]

Oh sorry I saw player card

[hexed mango]

yeah i meant like the badges on the player card

my bad

clarification needed

[drowsy shuttle]

100% thats why i never use free skins or payed skins...

[arctic grove]

I’ll use whatever if it looks tacticool

[hexed mango]

i use skins cause they are cool
same way i did in V or 4 or whatever

they just look cool

[edgy oriole]

https://tenor.com/view/sam-hyde-car-prius-kick-doors-gif-15496616

[hexed mango]

however i do indeed get waht you mean

by using the T1 skins

[tepid agate]

Even on bfV I got bored with running elites all the time so I changed all soldiers my own style to make it feel more war lol

[keen loom]

[hexed mango]

i just wish there was a way to have a T1 indicator or skin change AND a cool skin

[arctic grove]

I’m a bit disappointed the US and Japanese factions don’t have that many skins

[hexed mango]

like if i am T1 Rao, i get some weird indicator of me being T1 and i can use cool skins

[edgy oriole]

https://tenor.com/view/sam-hyde-gif-25303212

[tepid agate]

Yeah shame because they pulled the plug on bfV shortly after the Pacific update to focus on 2042

[keen loom]

Don’t make me snipe you on top of A1

[arctic grove]

You can probably already do this in that game but I’d like to look like some of those Marines with that really early camouflage they were using during the Pacific campaign

[hexed mango]

probably wasnt directly to focus on 2042, they didnt even have 2042 planned completely at the time, its just what EA does

[toxic wigeon]

T1 camps are better than specialist skins

[drowsy shuttle]

i have 1300 or 1400 battlefield coins from the battle pass i might use them if i see a really cool skin for a specialist that i play the most.. like sundance or mackay ... (tonight i started to play with paik and im digging it a lot... the "wallhack" its a bit op... but its cool)

[edgy oriole]

see how your video is. i wont have any problem dodging

[wide shore]

Okay, Rush Chaos is amazing

[keen loom]

[toxic wigeon]

I think they pulled plug early to help with frostbite engine

That’s what they had issues with

2042 shouldn’t have even come out when it did

[arctic grove]

Same, right now I’m considering the Mackay and Sundance bundle most

[toxic wigeon]

Cause half dev time was frostbite engine

[tepid agate]

Yeah I can't wait to see there next conference call to see if bfV is still in their profits over 2042, because 2042 is now live lol

[edgy oriole]

[toxic wigeon]

Doubt it anymore

[drowsy shuttle]

never used elites in BF5... always used "normal" war outfits...

[toxic wigeon]

V is fun

[arctic grove]

Yea I don’t personally like the elites either

[tepid agate]

I was trying the multikill last night for 2042 but couldn't work

[keen loom]

You’re never on when I play

[solid imp]

This is what I'm saying! It needs to never leave the game, never rotate out of featured modes

[toxic wigeon]

Git gud

[tepid agate]

🍻

[tepid agate]

Is it 3 or more? I fired the rocket and killed 2 with it and nothing happened

[arctic grove]

Whenever possible just spam the spawn for the stealth helis, go into stealth mode and wide flank (preferably in breakthrough btw) and easy multi kills

[toxic wigeon]

3 I think

[solar obsidian]

im awake

[edgy oriole]

im always on my child

[tepid agate]

Will try later as I didn't finish it all last night as friends came online for hell let loose

[keen loom]

[drowsy shuttle]

and i wish we got more "realistic" and more "war" skins to specialists and weapons in bf 2042... instead of purple and colorful stuff and all that.... but i know it wont happen... cause what sells (unfortunately) its the "fortnite" and "apex" kinda skins...

[arctic grove]

I agree with ya

[toxic wigeon]

None of my friends play bf

[tepid agate]

Screw cosmetic appearances we need classes back lol

[toxic wigeon]

They play fuckin fall guys and multi versus

[solar obsidian]

but most weapons just have camo patterns as unlocks? 🤔

[edgy oriole]

normal clothes

[keen loom]

Hot

[tepid agate]

Tell them to play hell let loose lol

I avtuay got booted from me squad and it came up because I wasn't communicating 😂

[tepid agate]

Literally everyone using mics

[toxic wigeon]

Do you guys think it’s cheap to farm attachments in bot rounds

[drowsy shuttle]

you're right.. we got some "war" cammos... but i wish we got more and with more variety... thats all... but i will be happy if at least they don't go the warzone route with shiny and lasered and too colorful stuff...

[hexed mango]

🥵

[solar obsidian]

person on the left, is a soldier from metal gear getting lost

[keen loom]

Oh no he’s looking at me

[hexed mango]

*she

[tepid agate]

I fight bots to unlock things for vehicles

[edgy oriole]

i dont care about it. Dice didnt want people to farm like that so more people would keep playing instead of getting everything and quiting. imo

[toxic wigeon]

Same

[arctic grove]

I say this a lot, but as long as we get some nice digital tacticool stuff I’ll be good with whatever else

[edgy oriole]

They*

[hexed mango]

nah

[keen loom]

[toxic wigeon]

I’m trying to get attachments for most guns rn

Takes a while tho

[hexed mango]

what's cheap is the people that abused portal for free real xp at the start of the game

[lone wren]

[drowsy shuttle]

i don't do it cause for me its really boring... i rather do it in normal multiplayer... even if it takes longer... its a way to motivate me to play the game....

[toxic wigeon]

You usually get all attachments at the mastery level 12

Except range ones for assault

[tepid agate]

I think it's fine they paid for it let them play portal how they like lol

[edgy oriole]

They*

[hexed mango]

*Joe

[edgy oriole]

same. people act like killing people is super hard. i dont get it.

[tepid agate]

Not like they are going to obtain a super powerful weapon to destroy us in AOW

[hexed mango]

the only thing i need is a sight and some ammo, once i have that for a gun, im set

[solar obsidian]

btw i took your trigger

[edgy oriole]

what gun

[hexed mango]

why

[toxic wigeon]

Yeah I prefer multiplayer way

[arctic grove]

Decent red dot and the ads accuracy grip and I’m good

[hexed mango]

for any

[solar obsidian]

haha

[hexed mango]

but im only really using M5 now

[hallow sierra]

i try rush 64 on portal and it has the worst map

[hexed mango]

and M44 + PP1

[edgy oriole]

ah i re read the statement and i understand now.

[toxic wigeon]

Why did they nerf the m5 lol

It felt balanced to me

[hexed mango]

only close combat, which i dont use :)

[toxic wigeon]

I use it

[hexed mango]

Close Combat was op

[toxic wigeon]

What do you use

[edgy oriole]

high power enjoyer here

[hexed mango]

Short barrel + CC was really good

i use Short Barrel and Standard/Extended

[solar obsidian]

too good

[hexed mango]

works really well

[hallow sierra]

good thing pp29 and pbx didnt get nerf

[toxic wigeon]

I have t1 m5

[solar obsidian]

bsv, extended suppressor, high power extended

[edgy oriole]

pp been op since launch that gun so ez to kill people with

[toxic wigeon]

Took a few days

[solar obsidian]

simple

perfection

[toxic wigeon]

Pp has so much ammo lol

[hallow sierra]

the lmgs want to know your locate

[toxic wigeon]

True

[drowsy shuttle]

the nerf to mp9 and k30 is almost nothing... im getting mp9 to tier 1 (its the only smg left to tier 1 for me) and im shredding people like there was no nerf.... cause the rate of fire is still enormous, so 1 bullet more to kill someone don't make a difference (in most situations at least)

[toxic wigeon]

Smg beats lmg most time though

[solar obsidian]

me who is standing 200m away

[drowsy shuttle]

same to bsv.. bsv is still a beast and OP... that shit still melts at all ranges..

[solar obsidian]

yep

[toxic wigeon]

What do you guys think of the attachment system anyway

I like it Ngl

[solar obsidian]

its amazing

[drowsy shuttle]

the plus system?

[solar obsidian]

i change sights all the time on my bsv

[toxic wigeon]

Yeah

[edgy oriole]

attachments are good now. before rework awful

[toxic wigeon]

I can’t remember what it was like before rework

I didn’t use the system much

[drowsy shuttle]

the plus system is probably the best feature in the game... if not the best is definitely in top 3

[toxic wigeon]

I sniped so didn’t need it

[edgy oriole]

before rework it was pretty much an accessory

[solar obsidian]

before it was broken, unfinished, and lacked variety

[drowsy shuttle]

whoever got the idea at Dice for the plus system should get a raise

[solid imp]

Changing sights all the time on the M5, PP, and SVK, as well as ammo when I want subsonic to be sneaky beaky Rao. Plus system is a W

[drowsy shuttle]

👍 100%

i use it all the time depending the situations

[hexed mango]

@edgy oriole hey hey hey you should get multiversus so im not lonely

[edgy oriole]

sounds like some weeb shit

[arctic grove]

so uhh hows the kaleidoscope doing

[edgy oriole]

south korea good.

i dont wanna be over dramatic but

12/10

[arctic grove]

hmm

nice

[lofty nymph]

season 2 gets only a new map?

[arctic grove]

yes

[lofty nymph]

pathetic

[arctic grove]

some people are saying that its in oceania

[arctic grove]

ik, i miss the days where wed get a bunch of new maps and guns through packs and downloadable content

[drowsy shuttle]

i like it... specially in BT.. new layout and all that... i think its the only map (along side exposure, but i still prefer kaleidoscope) that its worth playing as defenders...

[acoustic island]

Does using the sfar under barrel attachments count as grenade damage?

[drowsy shuttle]

i don't think so.. but i used hand grenades.. was pretty easy...

[arctic grove]

[edgy oriole]

A sector of south korea reminds me of storming the beach on iwo jima

[arctic grove]

its better to use the ak grenades

tbh im not really impressed with the new content

[edgy oriole]

a couple people said they dont for this weekly. i only used the grenade for it tho just incase.

[ebon pilot]

Masterkey kills don't count toward shotgun kills

sad

plz fix dice

[cosmic sequoia]

nerf transport choppers

[solid imp]

#battlefield-2042 message

[outer anchor]

renewal is so fucking bad

[fiery dawn]

As far as I could tell, only the Frag grenade throwable counts. I tested both sundance grenades and underbarrel grenade launchers and nothing was counting for the mission except the frag grenades

Ah, looks like Morb tested everything too

[toxic wigeon]

I kind of like renewal lol

Too open and far apart though

But cool map concept

[fiery dawn]

It looks nice but plays poorly imo

The only map I really want deleted though is Hourglass

That’s the only map where I dodge/cancel matchmaking entirely as soon as I see its name pop up xD

[toxic wigeon]

Same

Easily worst map

[agile tapir]

I haven’t played hourglass yet

[edgy oriole]

[agile tapir]

Wait nvm

[fiery dawn]

juicy

You like the AC-42?

I want to T1 all four ARs but I’m nervous about the AC-42

I’ve only tried it a couple of times but it felt weird to use

[edgy oriole]

its the last assault to t1. ive always liked it but i feel like im in more positions where auto fire is more useful so i get mad a lot at it

[fiery dawn]

yeah same here

I’ve got the AK to T1, I’m like almost done with the Scar, and I was gonna do the M5A3 next but I might do AC-42 first just to get it out of the way

[wide shore]

AC42 is great in single fire

[edgy oriole]

i need 200 more kills left with it then ill shelf it forever. idk what imma use next. i may just abuse pp for the rest of my 2042 career

[wide shore]

My last AR T1 was the M5A3

[fiery dawn]

Really? Huh I’ll have to try it in single fire

[wide shore]

AK24 and SFAR are my current muses.

[fiery dawn]

So far just from my experience using all 4 of them the M5A3 is my favorite

[wide shore]

M5A3 is my least favorite.

[fiery dawn]

really?!

interesting

[wide shore]

I just don’t like it. Idk why

[fiery dawn]

fair enough

[edgy oriole]

they all feel the same for me. so it all comes down to what skin i wanna look at

[acoustic island]

The m5 really excels as a closer range ar

[fiery dawn]

man they definitely don’t feel the same to me

[edgy oriole]

I like using scar most bc of the smoke underbarrel

[fiery dawn]

this is true. the Scar and AK are so much better at longer range than the M5

[edgy oriole]

which the ac has too

[celest oar]

damage inflicted with grenade, but belt grenade doesn't count, great

[mellow silo]

Haven't been around since like launch month whats new?

[solar obsidian]

everything

[fiery dawn]

smoke is life. I run smoke underbarrel, smoke grenades, and smoke launcher all at the same time sometimes when playing breakthrough

[solar obsidian]

i use nade launcher to piss enemy off

[edgy oriole]

smoke and fire only. smoke to blind fire to keep them out

[acoustic island]

@mellow silo still not an amazing game but it is at least fun now, especially breakthrough

[wide shore]

I was shooting underbarrel incendiaries like a madman in rush chaos

[edgy oriole]

AA is usful when helo comes after you tho.

[wide shore]

So many kills

[edgy oriole]

featuring @hexed mango

[fiery dawn]

He died to Scar

why he so angy

[edgy oriole]

bc he poo poo

[fiery dawn]

[toxic wigeon]

I actually like ac42

I was pretty good at it when I used it

Not the best for close range though

Unless you can hit headshots constantly

[fiery dawn]

I like to play close-medium range that’s probably why I don’t like it

and probably why the M5A3 is my favorite

[toxic wigeon]

Yeah I like m5 more

But ac still fun

[violet meteor]

Best thing I ever did was make l1 and r1 my aim and fire buttons

This is much better

[fiery dawn]

👀

[violet meteor]

Idk why you deleted it

Own it

[fiery dawn]

[edgy oriole]

[hexed mango]

JOE

[fiery dawn]

Hey there bud

[hexed mango]

that isnt me, thats someone else

[fiery dawn]

[violet meteor]

Aw are yall in a little jet club now

Yall have jackets?

[fiery dawn]

we have been for a while

😎

[violet meteor]

Your own table in the cafeteria?

[fiery dawn]

oh yah the whole deal

[violet meteor]

Noice

[fiery dawn]

the local motel has a special room for us too

I mean what

[violet meteor]

Grats yall t1'd the most useless vehicle in 2042 XD

[fiery dawn]

it’s for the cool factor 😎

[violet meteor]

I think I have more tuk tuk kills

[fiery dawn]

More than Morb?

he has T1 Tuk-Tuk 😏

[violet meteor]

More than f35 anyway

That must have been painful

Can't be good for mental health

[fiery dawn]

Mental_Health.exe no longer exists

[outer anchor]

Ok, kaleidoscope is amazing now

[violet meteor]

I think going to war irl may have been the better option

[outer anchor]

so fun to play

ill give it a 9/10

[fiery dawn]

ur probably right

[outer anchor]

I doubt they can do a turn around like that with renewal but well see

[fiery dawn]

I T1’d the Wildcat too but the Wildcat is easily best ground vehicle

[violet meteor]

Indeed

[outer anchor]

I never play in vehicles

😭

[fiery dawn]

I’m a dirty vehicle enjoyer

[violet meteor]

I'm a casual

[outer anchor]

im a sweaty infantry

[fiery dawn]

Well I default back to sweaty infantry most of the time because vehicles are more limited

[outer anchor]

I wish there was more night maps like manifest

[violet meteor]

Night maps were boring in 4

[solar obsidian]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

give me night maps

[hexed mango]

just add night cycle

[violet meteor]

I can see why they never did it for 2042

[hexed mango]

ok

boomer

[violet meteor]

Too young

[solar obsidian]

there are two type of players,
those who like night maps,
and those who bought a bad monitor

[violet meteor]

Or those who don't like night maps

[hexed mango]

legally, yes

[solar obsidian]

👀 because they cant enjoy the glorious blacks

[hexed mango]

they dont exist

[hexed mango]

ngl thats kinda sus

not that its wrong

[solar obsidian]

hahahaha

[hexed mango]

just the way you stated that

[violet meteor]

Day/night cycle wouldn't be bad tho

[solar obsidian]

perfect

let me play the song of time to change the time

[hexed mango]

DHMIS - time

[solar obsidian]

a ocarina as melee weapon would be more impactful

[violet meteor]

An*

[dapper river]

@sly oak u r CRINGE!!!!

in your match btw lol

[violet meteor]

I want the ucav to return to 2042 so that I may ram it into players

[hexed mango]

[hexed mango]

x10

paper plane moment

[solar obsidian]

no wonder you picked a ps5

[violet meteor]

I mean it was free so

Also, I don't have all these pc issues yall are facing all the time with 2042 so

[solar obsidian]

all these pc issues?

[violet meteor]

Indeed

[solar obsidian]

ahh right, because performance issues and bugs in games are only on pc 🤦‍♂️

[violet meteor]

Well I'm certainly not facing any so

[hexed mango]

[toxic wigeon]

Hmm

[hexed mango]

stupid

keyboard

[solar obsidian]

the "im not so everybody dont have issues" might be the worst statement ever

[violet meteor]

Who said that

[keen loom]

[solar obsidian]

this

[keen loom]

Lol salty

[violet meteor]

Yeah, I'm not. Some do some dont.

Keep up

[hexed mango]

joe mama might be the best statement ever

im gonna do some very very dreadful performance testing, on every permutation of display settings possible to see which have performance impacts

[solar obsidian]

i had major performance issues last patch, for some odd reason, first time this game actually been having trouble for me,

it was fixed with the newest patch

[violet meteor]

Come to think of it, I don't think I've encountered any bugs or issues of any sort with 2042 on my ps5

Feels good

[keen loom]

Same

Man sounded salty

[violet meteor]

Great, glad to hear, sorry you feel attacked

[solar obsidian]

dont worry, its just all banter, 😄

[hexed mango]

[solar obsidian]

been one of those wanting cross play for ages

[keen loom]

Banter5

[topaz field]

Squids rush mode is insane I went like 106-65 🤣😭

[violet meteor]

That's what people say when they realize they shit the bed

[topaz field]

I did the challenge with dozer lol it's a fun character if you like to bully people 🤣

[keen loom]

I only bugs on my PS5 during beta & launch

[fiery dawn]

See wasn’t too bad right?

[bitter skiff]

LMAO

[violet meteor]

I like that they gave dozer's mask a beard

[solar tinsel]

Well I finally got to play the reworked Kaleidoscope tonight. I actually ***really ***like this map now. Anyone else feel the same?

[solar obsidian]

👌

[violet meteor]

Nobody else

Just you

[solar tinsel]

Would be par for the course for me ha

[violet meteor]

Because the rest of us love it

[solar tinsel]

haha

Not even just the new objects, but moving the flags, or even just increasing zone sizes makes it such a better experience

[fiery dawn]

ye its nice

my favorite thing is that it isn't completely flat anymore

Lots of little hills and dips and bumps

[solar tinsel]

Yup, moving between B flags is fun, A to C is viable and fun. Bringing F1 to the ground made F to G really fun

combat lanes - hooray!

[violet meteor]

Renewal is gonna be good too I bet

Too much flatland so a lot to work with

[solar tinsel]

For sure, you can even just see the shift to a more linear approach, which 2042 really hasn't had much

[edgy oriole]

i love when my bullet that does 55 each hit at close range leaves 16 health on enemy then they get invincibility and kill you

[fiery dawn]

I hope so. Idk if they plan to rework Hourglass but if they do, how they plan to save that hopeless piece of junk is beyond me lol

[keen loom]

L

[solar tinsel]

I don't know how you do that without literally mass moving objects. In my mind, west should be desert, center stadium, and east city

[violet meteor]

Adding more than a ladder and a cable in each room for starters

[fierce sail]

I can't believe they made 2041 battlefield games before this one

its truly one of the things of all time

[solar tinsel]

and they are destined to make at least 2,142

[keen loom]

https://tenor.com/view/the-universe-tim-and-eric-mind-blown-mind-blown-meme-mind-explosion-mind-explosion-meme-gif-18002878

[bitter skiff]

LMAO

[keen loom]

[solar tinsel]

but yeah Hourglass I feel like never leverages one of its more exciting areas in the stadium, since its out in the corner, and therefore its only really approached from one side

I guess if you don't move the stadium, they could take D (the entire town area there) and but it between A and C, to give it a bit more of a linear path

you'd have stadium, to the (relocated) town, to the arches, to the city

[dapper river]

I can't believe they prettied up the entirety of B on Kaleidoscope and it isn't even used in Breakthough. cringe!!

[fiery dawn]

What?

[solar tinsel]

Wait it isn't?

[fiery dawn]

Are you talking about B1 where it's like a TDM area almost

[solar tinsel]

I thought thats what they said in the video they'd do ha

[fiery dawn]

That area right there in front

If that's what he's talking about then it absolutely is used in Breakthrough. That's the first sector

[solar tinsel]

Oh ok phew thats what I thought. Didnt play on BT yet, but the dev stream Im pretty sure he said specifically that

[fiery dawn]

Yeah, I played multiple BT matches there today and it was awesome

[solar tinsel]

Because yes, going across the river between tower and the soutern point was indeed a pain

[fiery dawn]

Yeah well that was because they switched it back to the 128 player layout for a time for some reason

That was awful

[solar tinsel]

ha

[fiery dawn]

It was still not great in the 64p layout either though

It's great now

[solar tinsel]

I forgot what the 64p started as: was it the old B1/B2 points for BT?

[fiery dawn]

I think so

For a while after they changed it back from 128p layout it was conquest's E sector first I think

Starting from the top right corner of the map

[solar tinsel]

ohhh you're right actually

[edgy oriole]

A point of south korea feels like storming the beaches

[solar tinsel]

thats how Rush is too I think

I remember

[fiery dawn]

But I'm pretty sure there was a completely different 64p layout there for a while

[solar tinsel]

it was E1/E2 -> to the datacenter > then to the buildings I think

I dont think I got that layout much

but yeah, BT was a bit random previously

"which version are you gonna get? nobody knows!"

[fiery dawn]

Although now that I think about it, I'm almost positive I played a BT match yesterday after the Kaleidoscope rework came out and it was the same as the old layout where you started in E sector and the game stalled out immediately because the defenders had so much cover to work with... so I guess they changed the layout last night because this morning when I was playing we started in B sector from the opposite corner of the map

[fierce sail]

update when

hmhhmhh

when update

hmMmMM!M

whEAN!

WHEAN IT EAT

[outer anchor]

at this point dozer's hit detect is just simply pathetic

im getting mad

[arctic grove]

Update in approximately 9 milliseconds

[fiery dawn]

Yeah it felt pretty bad when I was doing the BP mission earlier

[outer anchor]

its sad

[fiery dawn]

You have to basically be touching them already when you hit with the shield

[outer anchor]

he could be so fun

sometimes the dude is standing still

you have the bash like 6 times to hit

[arctic grove]

Play 128CQ late at night and just hit the bots

[outer anchor]

and they proudly put in the patch note that they improved it

[acoustic island]

I’ve also encountered a bug where hitting another dozer doesn’t let you move your camera

[outer anchor]

the only improvement is kadeiloscope which is great now

but for the love of god can you fix your specialists now

[next onyx]

Oh yeah if you're fighting bots you can charge them as dozer.

[acoustic island]

Kinda Like the bayonet from bf1?

[outer anchor]

I need to find 400 bots lol

to finish tier 1

[tepid agate]

Just guard the rooftops with Dozer, waiting for the doors to open with your shield lol surprise!

[dapper river]

it's way better than it was before, that's for sure

[outer anchor]

ehhh I dunno about that

[fiery dawn]

I just joined into Manifest BT defending on the last sector and died to a stealth heli 4 times in a row

We insta lost

[tepid agate]

Rao best counter to stealth heli

[arctic grove]

I was like today years old when I figured out hacking the stealth heli turns its stealth off

[tepid agate]

Hardly anyone likes to use Rao though but he's the best against air vehicles

[fiery dawn]

It's a boring way to play the game

[next onyx]

St chopper can just use cover and snipe..

[solar obsidian]

me who loves rao at medium to long range since he spots things that hits him

[tepid agate]

I enjoy using him against op vehicles

I enjoy stopping people spamming of mechanic lol

[fiery dawn]

@hexed mango did you leave lmao

[tepid agate]

[fiery dawn]

Whenever I fly the stealth helis Rao hacking me is never more than an inconvenience

So yeah, it can be effective at slowing the heli down from killing your team but it still doesn't effectively deal with it imo

Ok, I did it real quick and dirty but.... I think THIS is how Hourglass could work: https://i.imgur.com/Mdg7T0x.jpg

The current D point gets moved above B (with structures) and becomes another B flag

C gets another flag added

[violet meteor]

Do we look like devs to you

[solar tinsel]

cut out the whole bottom of the map, which admittedly, doesnt have much

[arctic grove]

Damn that just goes to show Hourglass could be like 2 maps

[solar tinsel]

yup! get started! 😆

[solar tinsel]

ha, yeah, except the bottom would be a whole lot of nothing

[arctic grove]

[solar tinsel]

but you're right, this is a total different approach that almost reminds me more of firestorm

[arctic grove]

Hourglass is gonna be like the final boss when it comes to map reworks

[solar tinsel]

where it's large, but dense in "the path"

Stadium > Town > Arches > City

[violet meteor]

Does Hourglass need more air

[solar tinsel]

With the way the map is now, absolutely

[violet meteor]

I just always feel like it was supposed to be an air heavy map

[solar tinsel]

then again, the game in general needs more air

dedicated jet spawn for example

but on the flipside, I would argue stripping air from say: Manifest

[next onyx]

Keep forgetting hour glass is a map due to how shit is.

[solar tinsel]

ha

[hexed mango]

bro wtf there is barely any difference

[solar tinsel]

How would you feel about what I proposed?

[next onyx]

Mire air vehicles?

[solar tinsel]

https://i.imgur.com/Mdg7T0x.jpg

The top "B1" is the structures from D moved over

to form a "large town"

[hexed mango]

all i get out of this is the explanation that Nvidia GeForce's suggested settings for performance work

[next onyx]

Kinda reminds me of orbital.

Actually like that.

[solar tinsel]

A little bit! Yeah, without the lower option of C

[hexed mango]

lowkey good

[solar tinsel]

I just feel like there has been such a fear of making maps semi-linear, but so many good BF maps from the past are

[hexed mango]

moving the town to an easier to access location, and not spreading out literally everything

[arctic grove]

Definitely keep that around in case we get some sort of map feedback loop of some type or something similar

[next onyx]

You know what.

[solar tinsel]

it gives a natural progression, a frontline

[hexed mango]

that already happened

[solar tinsel]

but you could still flank around with the desert if you wanted to

[next onyx]

I should push for 10k PBX kills.

[arctic grove]

Another one?

[next onyx]

Another one would really help.

[solar tinsel]

will do ha, thanks!

[next onyx]

They can ask us what we feel what needs to be added.

[solar tinsel]

Whats wild is, I think an approach like this could work EVEN IF they didn't add more assets like they did with Kalediscope

just the locations and repositioning would help

[next onyx]

Though I'm more concerned that because they omitted a bunch of things from launch, provided it was rushed so they couldn't but you know.

It sets a scary precinct for the release of their new games.

In the prototype they had C more south down.
