battlefield-2042

[grizzled whale]

now watch as it has 0 impact on playercount

[little lagoon]

I know fake concept, but that's so cool

[tawny carbon]

I’m season 3

[wide shore]

It’s okay. Primary Weapons aren’t class locked.

[oak sedge]

I believe it's too little too late to increase the player count of this game but I'd like to be wrong about that

[little lagoon]

Im still here and will be for a long time

Game is fun as fuck

[somber widget]

@little lagoon What do you mean fake? It’s literally been confirmed just now in their stream at the end

[fiery solar]

Looked back at this he’s just playing bf3 or 4 having the time of his life before he continues working on 2042 for the next year

[somber widget]

It’s not just fan art

[little lagoon]

Oh sorry I thought it was the fan art one sorry mate

[arctic grove]

@oak sedge it's too little imo only 1 new map is ridiculous especially considering the games that came out prior

[hallow sierra]

watch when the next bf game come and ppl would come back to 2042 just like with bfv

[somber widget]

Nah confirmed brother

It’s called Drained i think

[iron thistle]

I think the way to do that wouldve been to just flood the game with new maps and weapons after the season 1 update considering most major bugs have been fixed

[little lagoon]

Fuck yeah

[grave prism]

LOL they named the boat strag

[little lagoon]

Now I'm even more excited

[little lagoon]

Thank you friend

[grave prism]

YASSSS dice

[somber widget]

@little lagoon If you scroll up a while you will see like 3 more screenshots he posted

Or just watch the video again either way you can see more then just that angle

[tame cobalt]

Have the non regulats left yet

[little lagoon]

You're too kind!

[somber widget]

^^^^^

[tame cobalt]

🔥

[toxic wigeon]

That ship carrying illegal substances

[fiery solar]

What about the little of the boat in the end

[little lagoon]

I saw the gameplay didn't see that concept art though

[tame cobalt]

weapons

[oak sedge]

It feels like DICE is going above and beyond to try to salvage this game, which I'm honestly shocked to see, but I know how this story ends. Just like with BFV and Battlefront 2, this story ends with them finally starting to fix the game and then they get pulled away to work on the next game, leaving their work unfinished

[little lagoon]

Really excited for this. This is gonna be good shit

[lucid goblet]

?

[iron thistle]

Exactly

[wide shore]

Forgot the one that shows the new Easter Egg logo.

[fiery solar]

Where they get that much crates in the apocalypse

[oak sedge]

Is that an AN-94 or am I just seeign things

It doesn't look like the AK 24

[somber widget]

@wide shore This area is what i’m most excited for. It looks so fun to hold down!

[wide shore]

It’s the AK24

[fiery solar]

6:05 time stamp to the development update

[lone wren]

probs the AK-24

[hallow sierra]

dats the ak

[oak sedge]

Huh, weird

I guess I don't use it as much

[tawny carbon]

Make he feel like that one naval dlc map underground with the boat on that one obj in BF4 ngl

[fiery solar]

Crab charm

[little lagoon]

I really outta find a gun that's not the k30

[wide shore]

I would be pissing myself if it was an AN94

[fiery solar]

Crabs are cannon in battlefield

[little lagoon]

I use the scar from time to time

[somber widget]

If you look at that screenshot he just posted, the container above the passage way has the Trident on it from the EE player card

[tawny carbon]

That charm tho

[fiery solar]

If bf4 can bring back bf3 maps why can’t bf2042 bring back future versions of bf4 maps

[somber widget]

It truly is everywhere lol

[grizzled whale]

bruh

orbital looks fucking mad

[jaunty fjord]

I hope the new map can have the physical destruction effect like the Lancang Dam

[little lagoon]

Little mermaid crossover! Finally

[wide shore]

[hallow sierra]

i rather use pbx then k30 cuz of recoil

[tawny carbon]

Lol

[fiery solar]

The tunnel is going to have a use (I haven’t used it since October 7th)

[grizzled whale]

especially this

[little lagoon]

I'll give it a shotA

[lucid goblet]

not really little lol

[toxic wigeon]

Is that battlefront?

[toxic wigeon]

Yeah it is lol

[tawny carbon]

Maybe it’s the new Star Wars game lol

[toxic wigeon]

Old footage prob

[hallow sierra]

pbx was really enjoyable while getting it t1 same with the pp29

[fiery solar]

That juicy unrendered boat

[little lagoon]

Old footage or using it to learn how to map? Or just having a break who knows

[jaunty fjord]

Can the zoom of the 2042 minimap be changed back to that of the previous generation?Like bf1 and bfv

[toxic wigeon]

All of the above

[somber widget]

Dude is playing in windowed mode to try and hide it lmao

Wild

[fiery solar]

You can zoom the map in 2042

[somber widget]

Yes

[hallow sierra]

i think he meant increase the size like in bfv

like how bfv map was

[grizzled whale]

honestly

[somber widget]

You can increase UI/HUD size, atleast on PC

[hexed mango]

Hype

[grizzled whale]

that new map just looks like discarded with less cover

[hexed mango]

#1011301084117086308 give feedback!!!!

[fiery solar]

Discarded had cover?

[somber widget]

Where?

I’ve been looking

LOL

[grizzled whale]

discarded has plenty of cover if you are competent

[hallow sierra]

if u just be around a2,b2,and c2 theres cover

[fiery solar]

A little pebble bigger than the rest

[arctic grove]

big W

[dusk fern]

It is weird to have another map with a ship in the middle of it lol but the lanes look better for sure. Plus those images inside the ship looking good.

[arctic grove]

just watched development video BIG W

[ebon ore]

gienwfgneiqwak,foejmpqk,fengownokw[gjmoegkwghnoekqojnepqkiokej[pqkmolejmw[jeijwpgnel

[royal trail]

that update was great, cant wait for the portal weapons to get into all out warfare

[ebon ore]

u guys noticed that on bot servers kaliedoscope hasnt been changed

[arctic grove]

plus hopefully a few new bp weapons

[open tangle]

It should’ve been the titanic. Missed opportunity

[somber widget]

Honestly S2 and S3 are gonna be dope.

[arctic grove]

im hyped

frfr

[ebon ore]

whats coming in s2

[fiery solar]

They’re making the maps look destroyed now I like it but I also liked how it was sort of a clean area that the players destroyed themselves at the end it was just a big mess

[somber widget]

@ebon ore Go watch the video bruh

[arctic grove]

orbital fav map so happy it's looking better

[ebon ore]

shut yo goofy ass up

[open tangle]

Add orbital to exodus

[ebon ore]

gimme a sec

[fiery solar]

Lebron James Colab

[hallow sierra]

im still waiting on hourglass rework

[somber widget]

Who tf you talking to like that?

[arctic grove]

me ❤️ orbital

[ebon ore]

real.

[somber widget]

Def not me

[arctic grove]

needs to be smaller

[dusk fern]

For the vault just give me the XM8 variant guns for assault and lmg and I’ll be a lot happier lol

[fiery solar]

Hills need to be changed a lot maybe lowered along with more sunken objects that can be used as cover and not cars that blow up when you shoot the windows

[open tangle]

Hourglass doesn’t need those skyscrapers as a playable area. Needs to be cut off.

[arctic grove]

yeah

focus should the stadium

[somber widget]

@open tangle The Sundance mains will not forgive you

Lol

[fiery solar]

It needs all the skyscrapers let’s ditch the sandy part

[arctic grove]

we need more dynamic events!!!

[open tangle]

Who mains suncdance

[hallow sierra]

A1 needs more cover if a tornado hit around there legit delate all cover there

[hallow sierra]

not me paik main

[arctic grove]

sam

[hallow sierra]

before they buff her

[somber widget]

@open tangle A lot of ppl lol or atleast 50/50 it

[arctic grove]

paik>

[ebon ore]

in hope they do what they did in bf4 where the last season is based like 10-20 years in the future with bf 2142 referances

[sharp marten]

Irish>

[fiery solar]

I stopped using Sundance when the style for mackay came out in March

[somber widget]

i tend to 50/50 between sundance and irish or paik

[sharp marten]

Fight me over it

[open tangle]

Hourglass should’ve been an oilfield map in the desert.

[hallow sierra]

i suck as sundance idk how yall ppl use her

[fiery solar]

Irish W

[ebon ore]

LITERATLY

[somber widget]

Sundance is best used on maps with elevation

[wraith sphinx]

Dice really said that making the classes were a significance change in terms of development for them how? every other game has had classes

[ebon ore]

HOW DO PEOPLE GET THE MASTERY 12 SKIN ON HER

[arctic grove]

since they are moving specalists into classes i wont be able to run dmr and paik

[lone wren]

i just want a cool disaster in 2042 where you flood half a battlefield map

[somber widget]

I use her for mobility and outplaying the enemy on obj

[jaunty fjord]

Season 2 gives me the feeling that it should extend the life of 2042 by about a year

[plucky creek]

Wait so are we getting an actual AS VAL into 2042 outside of the Portal mode?

[fiery solar]

Very easy you go to Solo breakthrough exposure and bomb everyone on B1 and tunnel to B2

[somber widget]

Source: Trust me bro @jaunty fjord

[sharp marten]

Why would they add the as val again?

[ebon ore]

thats only until mastery 8 tho

[hallow sierra]

not really cuz bsv is as val

[open tangle]

Hourglass rework should look like this. What do you guys think?

[hallow sierra]

but in the future

[somber widget]

@open tangle Fuck yes i’m all for it

[arctic grove]

make hourlass shanghai pls

[vapid knot]

Sangre del Toro from bfbc2 sp lol

[somber widget]

Right in the middle where the Arcs are

[arctic grove]

buldings need to fall

[somber widget]

Take those dumbass arches out

[plucky creek]

I am aware, the gun is still busted as fuck (not like the K30 which is busted beyond the plain of reality)

[somber widget]

Throw in a burning oil field

[lone wren]

i do want a firenado to be a thing in 2042

[fiery solar]

Let’s breakaway up hourglass

[fiery solar]

Concept art shows it why can’t we have it

[open tangle]

2042 while the matches feel like a Warzone the maps themselves don’t.

[somber widget]

I agree

[sharp marten]

Y’all saw that f-35B maybe we getting another jet 👀

[somber widget]

Too clean / pristine in most cases

[fiery solar]

A once in a lifetime videogame event is an average battlefield match no matter the map

[somber widget]

@sharp marten We are

It’s been data mined im almost sure

[open tangle]

This is a Warzone. Remember?

[ebon ore]

hope they add an underwater vehicle along with the new boats 🙏

[hallow sierra]

tbh idk if i rather tornados being spawn at a distance or just be around objectives

[ebon ore]

liek a sub

[somber widget]

@hallow sierra I like them up close and personal but then traveling away

[plucky creek]

I mean why stop there, BF4 had "Levelolution" we have the technology now why can't we turn Exposure into a Minecraft super flat world

[somber widget]

Makes it realistic like oh shit i needa dodge that fucking TORNADO over there

Lol

[viscid bone]

https://tenor.com/view/palpatine-star-wars-emperor-do-it-go-for-it-gif-17446081

[fiery solar]

But did that map really feel like a warzone or were there not people camping in corners all over that building and anyone who went outside was sniped

[solar rivet]

class system looks cool but if paik can only use snipers that would suck

[dapper river]

Nah call of duty warzone looks worse than that

[fiery solar]

A war zone

[sharp marten]

The man the myth the legend has graced us with his presence

[open tangle]

I’m not talking about cod fuck cod

[royal swan]

A class system, fuck yeah

[jaunty fjord]

u means to make the physical damage effect of landslide

[royal swan]

Getting hyped already

[viscid bone]

Hello there!! ❤️

You speak too highly of me ❤️ ^^

[hallow sierra]

u could still use any weapons with any classes its just gadgets and throwables

[ebon ore]

throwables

[hexed mango]

because you are a god

[ebon ore]

like the grenades

[solar rivet]

oh thats very good

[sharp marten]

My gamer I am SO EXCITED for season2

[somber widget]

@ebon ore Yes, something that is thrown lmao

Throwable

[ebon ore]

why the grenadesa

[river spear]

I’m going to add you guys

What’s ya username

[ebon ore]

maybe the scanign one

[hallow sierra]

now i cant flank around enemies with beacon unless i have paik

[jovial quest]

@viscid bone sir can I get an interview

[open tangle]

I have a good idea for a map. Abandoned airfield

[somber widget]

@river spear What platform?

[river spear]

Psn

[fiery solar]

Get this man an interview with the highest rank in dice hq

[unkempt tartan]

any leaked maps?

[somber widget]

@river spear Yea but 4 or 5?

[fiery solar]

Yeah it got a boat in it

[spare quest]

Nah, the community team is busy all day ignoring the community

[river spear]

Wym

[royal swan]

1 map, but so many GUNS and a class system

[fiery solar]

It got like blocks for cover giant rectangles

[unkempt tartan]

cant wait

[river spear]

What console

[somber widget]

@river spear Are you on a PS4 or a PS5?

[river spear]

Ps5

[hallow sierra]

damn how long its going to take getting regular role

[sharp marten]

Classes will be in S3

[somber widget]

k

[jovial quest]

[river spear]

What’s your psn

[jovial quest]

We wait for Alex

[royal swan]

[somber widget]

I’m PC dawg lol but we can okay since you’re on PS5

[open tangle]

Took me 2 months

[somber widget]

If it was PS4 then obv not

[sharp marten]

I mean Atleast we’re getting them my gamer

[royal swan]

Insert sad womp sound

[hallow sierra]

damn

[jaunty fjord]

I hope to put restrictions on weapon types into the class system

[open tangle]

And I was a lot more active than you

[river spear]

So what they bring it in s2?

[unkempt tartan]

i hope theres a year 2

[river spear]

What’s your game tag

[sharp marten]

1 new map two reworks a lot of guns some new vehicles presume

A new BP as well

[hallow sierra]

usually i dont be around since chat always died

[river spear]

Bp?

[sharp marten]

Battle pass

[somber widget]

I’m not on rn but you can add me if you want, my tag is SurfingCloudz @river spear

[solar rivet]

although is it just me or does the map kind of look the same cause of all the reused assets, it looks fun just not unique, like if discarded and orbital had a kid

[hallow sierra]

i wonder if the next weapon would be a revolver

[river spear]

I added you

[sharp marten]

They’re not doing weapons restrictions which is a good thing

[somber widget]

Fs i’ll inv you when i’m on soon @river spear

[river spear]

Bet

[river spear]

They gotta bring some mw weapons

[hallow sierra]

i tho they would be something like dat glad they didnt

[somber widget]

I’m honestly very pleased with how they are approaching the class systems

Idk why so many people are being negative

[sharp marten]

They’re add like 2 new weapons and like 5 or 4 weapons from previous BF games

[river spear]

I wonder how the game was before

[hallow sierra]

im sad i cant use beacon with any class

[river spear]

Oh they did

[sharp marten]

I didn’t much care if they added or left classes but it’s good to see the people who did want them be heard ya know?

[fervent grotto]

That’s kinda sad.

[thorny orchid]

waiiit

[sharp marten]

Not really

[thorny orchid]

proxy sens recon only??? LMAO rip free xp

[ebon ore]

if they dont add a specialist that has the railgun from bf 4 i am crying.

[lone wren]

bit more teamplay in 2042 pls ban those that rambo

[hallow sierra]

at least there would be more weapons i could t1 with

[fervent grotto]

I don’t honesty get wanting old content pushed into AOW. I want new content. Not reused assets hidden as new content

[sharp marten]

Because the older guns were fun to use and people liked them a lot in past battlefields

[fervent grotto]

But that’s just me. I understand wanting content but I want new things

[somber widget]

It’s the same weapon model / archetype but that dosent mean the same meshes and textures bro

[hallow sierra]

i want the tar

[toxic wigeon]

Tbf guns aren’t really content

[hallow sierra]

21

[arctic grove]

fr

[toxic wigeon]

Guns stay the same

[lone wren]

Didn't people also ask for portal guns to be in AOW anyway

[toxic wigeon]

So makes sense

[fervent grotto]

Yea but that’s not new things.

[sharp marten]

Yes

[toxic wigeon]

But it makes sense lol

[fervent grotto]

Yeah. I never really agreed on it but it happened.

[celest oar]

the only thing I want from portal being bring to AOW is Scar, just because the SCAR from portal has foregrip

[sharp marten]

Technically they are new new to bf2042

[somber widget]

@fervent grotto So then go invent some new AR / SMG’s to be produced in real life

Then have them added in game

lmfao

[arctic grove]

Where are the good players in Battlefield it’s too easy these days, I’m taking bases winning the whole matches 1 man army

[fervent grotto]

What?

[silk surge]

SCAR from PORTAL also doesn't have a mandatory GL, which is nice.

[arctic grove]

Im teasin games not easy lol

[fervent grotto]

What does that have to do with it? There are many modern guns they can add that aren’t just ported

[somber widget]

@fervent grotto

[thorny orchid]

The guns in bf4, bf3 and 2042 all use the same pool of weapons lmao. 2042 just introduced new ones.

[lone wren]

being overwhelmed by new players that come from a game that does not have flag objectives

[urban tapir]

so a remake of renewal and orbital for season 2, nice

[fervent grotto]

Yea did we ever get to know why they did that? Why does the scar have to have a GL

[somber widget]

@fervent grotto Considering you don’t even know which guns are being added other than 2-3, your reasoning is absurd.

🤓

[sharp marten]

And they might be added but right now people want the guns they used to use in previous battlefields because that’s how people had a lot of fun

[fervent grotto]

My reasoning that adding content from old games isn’t new content?

[silk surge]

Adding STG-44 to AOW would be hilarious, even though it makes no sense for soldiers in 2042 to run around with weapons that were decommissioned a century ago.

[arctic grove]

The game can be difficult, I’m teasin I like it, depends on what time I play, there’s a lot of people and sometimes 45 players on each side

[lone wren]

Because it was design choice for a 2042 ERA Scar to have a underbarrel grenade launcher

[fervent grotto]

It’s a weird decision

[somber widget]

@fervent grotto Content from old games such as weapons, yes. Iconic weapons that are used in THOUSANDS of FPS games and are extremely popular in modern society.

[arctic grove]

sparse weapons after war and war so

[somber widget]

Please stop 🤣

[lone wren]

do you know what we call new players in battlefield

[arctic grove]

BITCHES

[jaunty fjord]

2042 should dismantle the portal and make a separate game

[somber widget]

@lucid goblet 🤘

[urban tapir]

im more excited for orbital remake

[lone wren]

No they are called blueberries

[somber widget]

Dope

[arctic grove]

What? Let me guess, fresh fish?

[urban tapir]

BREAKAWAY WILL NEVER BE REDONE

[silk surge]

I think weapons are the least sparse resource in the 2042 universe, both Russia and US are perfectly able to equip their no-pat mercenaries with high-end gear.

[lone wren]

blueberries

[arctic grove]

😂😂😂 I’m dead

[crisp cradle]

But one map is kind of a headscratcher for me. I get that they want to do quality over quantity. But quality can only go so far

[vernal saffron]

Don't we call "non-squadmates" blueberries?

[somber widget]

No

[lone wren]

We call anyone that is oblivious to objectives that

[urban tapir]

if in a private server, no

[lone wren]

so yes and no

[somber widget]

New players running around like a chicken with no head

That’s a blueberry

[fervent grotto]

I’m saying that taking a gun, straight out of portal, and placing it in a new game is stupid. That’s not new content. Does it have a different sound now? Did they change the way it feels? Does it have attachments that differentiate it? If yes to a few of those, then cool. But if it doesn’t, that’s just cheap recycling.

[somber widget]

Aka 75% of my teamates.

[urban tapir]

well I ain't no fuckin blueberry. take every shot you get

[arctic grove]

lol new changes announced are pretty bad

these devs........

[lone wren]

We all suffer players that dont do much other than treating conquest like TDM

[somber widget]

@urban tapir I didn’t @ you lol

[urban tapir]

you just did :/

[somber widget]

Bruh

[urban tapir]

LOL

[crisp cradle]

Also, will the portal guns have 2042 attachments or no

[fervent grotto]

Oh snap

[arctic grove]

Oi oi oi oi

[vernal saffron]

Man, i'm just trying to PTFO most of the time, but like nobody except AI is behind me.

[somber widget]

Logic is out the fucking window today

[urban tapir]

they will

[fervent grotto]

He’s going off

[somber widget]

[sharp marten]

Explain how the changes are bad please

[river spear]

I’m online if anybody want to join

[lone wren]

I accept AI to do whatever

[fervent grotto]

There’s channels for that

[arctic grove]

only one class gets C5 now? so dumb

[lone wren]

because they are AI

[urban tapir]

did you see the orbital map rework

[arctic grove]

yeah

[royal swan]

🤦‍♂️

[urban tapir]

who here likes the new orbital comapired to original

[celest oar]

sorry, gotta grind the specialist T1 first, I got my priority. If only capture object count toward T1 progress, but it;s not

[somber widget]

@lone wren Facts, but i must admit… i’ve seen plenty of AI do better than my actual teamates. It’s absurd.

[fervent grotto]

I think most of everyone

[vernal saffron]

A new flag for Orbital is going to spice stuff up deffo

[somber widget]

Orbital Rework is gonna be so damn good

[arctic grove]

developers cater to casuals and make the game less skill oriented

[errant scarab]

They put specialists in classes, why did they do that? It's the same thinggg 😂

[fervent grotto]

How?

[arctic grove]

it is a pillow fight

tanks are paper

[royal swan]

Buddy, orbital is a map that is close to us from the day this game launch, getting a rework is the best thing ever

[arctic grove]

nerf everything

Changes are great! Only thing i find it funny is these Feedback loop. Ok please here me out: WE ARE LITERALLY TELLING DICE HOW TO MAKE A FOOD BF GAME AND AND WATCHING THEM MAKE THE CHANGES IN REAL TIME.

[vernal saffron]

They get gadgets unique to their class only.

[arctic grove]

yeah a year after we bought it

EXACTLY

[wooden nymph]

I hope it does. The 64p layout of it is my favourite in the game

[somber widget]

@errant scarab How is it the same thing? Specialists are now segregated and so are the throwable / gadgets. No more running around as a medic but also having the loadout of a damn engineer.

[lone wren]

I come from experience in BF1 and BF2042 in regards of players also not giving ammo on health and others not thinking a support Ranger to give ammo can help you

[vernal saffron]

Assault gets med-pens, Support gets defibs etc

[lone wren]

but i accept those opinions to not like the support ranger concept

[errant scarab]

specialist still thereee

[arctic grove]

c5 to recon class only now

[vernal saffron]

Wait... does that mean we can't defib our squadmates anymore?

[somber widget]

@errant scarab Yea, obviously. They aren’t going away.

[wanton magnet]

Especially on vehicles. I never get c 5’d with them in the tank.

[arctic grove]

Imagine Overwatch but at least we get more team based gadget locks and team work

developers are noobifying the game since the player count is getting so low

[lone wren]

i think anyone thats a squadmate can revive without defib hopefully

[silk surge]

I wonder how many people will still play Falck once Assault gets med-pen by default.

[twin crown]

Is 128 players coming back in season 2?

[urban tapir]

it will take a while to remake 128, I would hope just to get a 2nd new map instead in season 4

[somber widget]

@arctic grove Did you just… create your own word?

Noobifying

[urban tapir]

Season 3 will prob be remake of Hourglass and mannifest

[somber widget]

Interesting.

[arctic grove]

no, it is not original

[royal swan]

Some, the ones that actively revive people

[somber widget]

yawn

[arctic grove]

Manifest already got all those damn crates

[vernal saffron]

1-2 Map remakes and a new map for an entire season spanned like 2-3 months?

[hexed mango]

Battlefield 2042

[arctic grove]

I think BF1942 had more vehicles at launch and it came out in 2002

[urban tapir]

I rather have anew map than breakaway rework

[lone wren]

There is some issues with some portal hosts banning things like AA and allowing helis to thrive

[celest oar]

Still use Falck for faster revive, but doesn't have ammo box for Falck anymore is something really off for me

[hexed mango]

2 map reworks are the only ones known * so far * and plus i think its nice

[sharp marten]

Yeah but isn’t this dice like a bunch of new devs as well?

[lone wren]

Most

[arctic grove]

Its definitely better than nothing

[hexed mango]

well she can still be used for engineer and other support, and recon

[arctic grove]

dont release new maps
rework old maps
pretent its new content
profit

[hexed mango]

• like 8 guns (3 new, 5 from portal)

[arctic grove]

GOD I FUCKING HATE DRIP FED LIVE SERVICE CONTENT

[hexed mango]

well i mean i would much rather get all the maps in the game to be really good rather than just a few good maps and a shit ton of bad maps

[arctic grove]

the team doesnt matter the point is that in 2002 they did better

[hexed mango]

deal with it

[arctic grove]

Yup

[frail sparrow]

Don't forget: drip feed portal guns as "new" assignments

[hexed mango]

#1011301084117086308 dont forget to give feedback

[wooden nymph]

There really is not much you have to do. Move the weather tower closer to the other objs, get rid of the ones in the snowy desert and add more Containers™. Nothing else, the layout is already good

[hexed mango]

idk i kinda like it that way

[sharp marten]

Dudes literally crying over dumb shit rn when s2 looks very good and promising

[arctic grove]

Yeah dont forget to tell the devs how to do their job

[somber widget]

Aren’t they all?

[arctic grove]

the maps arent that bad, reworking them is fine but they are using that in place of NEW maps and trying to pitch it to the community as new content

[hexed mango]

im glad to have portal weapons in 2042, and not just be given them or have it be paid

[river spear]

When s2 coming out

They have nothing better to do then complain.

[hexed mango]

having to unlock them with assignments functions well with no pay to win

[vernal saffron]

One aspect of the game i'm super dissapointed in is the score... like it's a step into oblivion after BF1 and BFV's scores.

[hexed mango]

aug 30th probably

[silk surge]

What I'm worried about are the people who are currently playing Falck because they can heal themselves quickly, and revives from time to time. Will they go assault in Season 3 when you could play as a self-healing Mackay or Sundance without wasting a gadget slot?

[frail sparrow]

I wouldve rather seen them let you unlock them at once and add new portal guns like f2000 and mp5k, g36c as new assignments

[lone wren]

september

[wooden nymph]

wtf, i like the ost. Brings me to my BF3 days

[glacial gulch]

anyone know when we will see more of the new map? Things are looking good for season 2!

[sharp marten]

When are they dropping the actual trailer for it?

[arctic grove]

days

[arctic grove]

probably around 2042 maybe 2043

[royal swan]

When season 1 ends

[hexed mango]

i mean nobody knows, and either way why cut S1 short if not to release s2 asap

[somber widget]

@silk surge Yea but that isn’t infinite, i think you only have 2 med pens until you get resupplied

[toxic wigeon]

Season 1 ends soon

[open tangle]

Hourglass rework teaser

[hexed mango]

this is accurate

[toxic wigeon]

So I assume next few days

[royal swan]

Like in a week

[lone wren]

possibly couple of days before

[frail sparrow]

I dig it during gamplay but wouldn't listen to it standalone ala previous music. It's very ambiental and experimentive which works during gameplay

[wooden nymph]

7 days

[hexed mango]

lel

[royal swan]

[toxic wigeon]

Hourglass should be removed tbh

Like just redo the entire map

[hexed mango]

it should be nuked

[lone wren]

Lucky i got desert camo

[wooden nymph]

Hourglass is the worst map by far

[arctic grove]

I told my boss I'm not doing any new jobs, I'm just gonna rework old jobs and pretend I'm accomplishing something

[toxic wigeon]

Hourglass is easily worst map

[frail sparrow]

Hourglass rework is just adding more sandstorm and dunes

[toxic wigeon]

Cool concept

[lone wren]

nuking hourglass would turn a lot of the sand to glass

[silk surge]

Sure, but 2 could be enough for the average Battlefield player that will probably die before they use both of their med-pen shots.

[toxic wigeon]

But everything about it is bad

[vernal saffron]

Well... i agree it fits the game but, same as you, not as a standalone score

[somber widget]

Damn y’all really hate hourglass that much? I actually enjoyed it lol it just has way too little of cover

[hexed mango]

aka mandalore

[toxic wigeon]

I don’t care for game music tbh

[frail sparrow]

Yoooo, a battlefield existed solely out of destrucable glass be nice

[river spear]

Is there any meta ?

[toxic wigeon]

Like menu themes

[wooden nymph]

literally vibe to it every once in a while

[arctic grove]

I'm fine with all the maps, there's just not enough of them so there is NO VARIETY. I often play the same map 3 times in a row

[somber widget]

@silk surge Yea i get ya

[toxic wigeon]

Cod has always had better themes anyway imo

[topaz crown]

Both Skyscraper maps are a bit meh on this BF

[wooden nymph]

That's a lie, actually

[somber widget]

@river spear The SFAR is for sure

[lone wren]

i like hourglass for the house smashing like i'm the kool aid man

[frail sparrow]

I love setting, sandstorm, vibe, but hate playing it due how open it is

[toxic wigeon]

Nah

[upper socket]

We need a map like agrognee forest(sorry for spelling) from bf1

[open tangle]

https://tenor.com/view/kool-aid-man-oh-yeah-wall-break-family-guy-gif-8149689

[royal swan]

Thinking of the good cod years mate.

[toxic wigeon]

Well yeah

[lone wren]

hopefully no one is inside or else they may get ran over by a bolte

[vernal saffron]

I'd rather vibe to Triumph, Dawn of a new time, and Flight of the pidgeon

[toxic wigeon]

But cold wars theme was decent

[river spear]

I’m only level 19

[toxic wigeon]

Like I said

[upper socket]

Yep

[toxic wigeon]

I don’t really care for themes cause I’m playing games for gameplay

[somber widget]

@river spear Then the M5A3

After that it’s the BSV

Then the SFAR

Only 3 you need lol

[lone wren]

SFAR number one to me

[somber widget]

It is

He’s not lvl yet

[toxic wigeon]

SFAR feels way better to me than ak

I hate the ak

[river spear]

Yeah that gun is ode good

[lone wren]

AK 5.45

[somber widget]

Yea the AK feels weird to me too

[royal swan]

Not fond of the ak

[river spear]

For me the M5 is eh

[toxic wigeon]

It’s too slow and doesn’t fit my play style

M5 is my fav

[lone wren]

it has the bullets used for the AKS-U

[somber widget]

@river spear Put on the close combat mag when you get it

It’s OP

[toxic wigeon]

Yep

[wooden nymph]

Literally generic orchestral music. If it was The Storm. I would have agreed, but not BFV score. Electronic music is also better so

[frail sparrow]

Ak is supposed to feel punchy animation wise, but just feels weak pewpew

[toxic wigeon]

M5 is op with short range

[river spear]

Thanks

I have to unlock all that shit

[somber widget]

Yea the AK needs a dmg buff imo

[lone wren]

For some reason i dont find close combat rounds to be OP

[toxic wigeon]

You can go to bot matches

In solo

Get to level 12 you’ll have most attachments

[river spear]

You guys already have the red skin for the M5

[somber widget]

@river spear When we squad up i got you, we’re gonna frag out

[toxic wigeon]

I do

Easy to get Ngl

[somber widget]

Yes

[lone wren]

I'm close on getting T1

anyway i am off for the night

[silk surge]

That's because they aren't. Close combat rounds basically turns BSV into an SMG with much higher spread compared to the actual SMGs.

[errant scarab]

still bored

[river spear]

Is it

[lone wren]

i also dont find BSV OP either

[open tangle]

Battlefield 2043 leaked teaser

[somber widget]

@lone wren I was only talking about the M5A3 CC Mag

The rest are ass

[wooden nymph]

bruh

[somber widget]

BSV is only good with High Power

[lone wren]

yes i was refering to the M5

[silk surge]

BSV is kind of OP tbh. It has gotten a lot better since the nerf, but man, that thing counter-snipes like crazy.

[lone wren]

the close combat mag

[toxic wigeon]

BSV was fun when I used it for challenges

[errant scarab]

COD 2.0

[toxic wigeon]

But I haven’t used it since

[somber widget]

BSV was my first T1

It’s dope

[toxic wigeon]

So I don’t have attachments

[wooden nymph]

I still don't have a single t1
on weapon*

[lone wren]

COD does not have that kind of destruction

[errant scarab]

i agree but bf2042 have mw gameplay is ugly

[little lagoon]

Eh

No

Bf2042 does not play like cod

[errant scarab]

poorly done

[little lagoon]

Stop

[hearty flame]

um wow 2042s live service really sucks ass

[errant scarab]

It's easier to say 'ded game' than giving out a well thought out criticism.

[little lagoon]

@ me so I can block you if that's your opinion

[river spear]

They should customize the way you do gun attachments.

[somber widget]

Wym

[arctic grove]

hmmmaybe some sort of ingame customizsation where you can switch out attachemnts in a cross shape hmm

[open tangle]

There’s more atmosphere and grit in this gif than in 2042

[errant scarab]

the gameplay and graphics of this game makes me very angry lol it was not what I wanted, I wanted something more realistic

[wooden nymph]

This is how reddit comes up with "fixes" to the game

[river spear]

Yeah

[dapper river]

yeah and all it cost was half the FOV

[somber widget]

@errant scarab You could always play Arma

[toxic wigeon]

Lol

[little lagoon]

Shut up. Thanks for the reminder to block you

[wooden nymph]

BFV gameplay is good

[lilac dust]

Orbital rework seems pretty decent. Didn't need too much but I'm all for more cover and an extra capture point in the middle of the barren hills that had no cover previously

[errant scarab]

trying to be cod

[arctic grove]

2042 seems like a neutered game with too much SJW PC stuff

the no scoreboard and no voice chat stuff was to protect noobs I think

[dapper river]

if the other seasons are getting similar content release to s2 i really dont see 2042 getting a y2 at all

We get it you don’t like 2042

Move on?

[hearty flame]

and thank goodness for that

[errant scarab]

BF3 gameplay in a new BF or something like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4koVN-Ayec this is battlefield this is war game

[wooden nymph]

@errant scarab Duel me in BF3, coward

[arctic grove]

I am astonished that DICE has refused to offer joystick support for flying. It's really ridiculous and this is also to cater to noobs on console who would likely get destroyed

don't most HOTASes run on Xinput? So like, you could still use one??

Idk i don't own one lol

[solar tinsel]

Hey dumb random question: since Angel doesn't resupply armor anymore, does he have ANY trait now?

[hexed mango]

1984

[lilac dust]

Honestly I'm gonna go out on a limb and say 2042 will be supported after year 1 ... Kailedoscope got an earlier release date. We now have 2 reworked maps coming in a single season along with the new map. I'm betting we could see maybe 3 in a future season and then by the time all base maps are reworked I could see them supporting it with AT THE VERY LEAST a couple extra maps after year 1, like the pacific DLC or the last couple BF4 maps

[little lagoon]

His big ammo dumpy

[wooden nymph]

He revives you with full ammo

[open tangle]

They kept him int he game for his voice lines

[wild sapphire]

So from what I’m hearing we are getting the m60 and m16 at start of s2 and then later we will get the p90, AN94 and AK 74

[solar tinsel]

gotcha thanks

[errant scarab]

It's toxic to criticize the game for those who like it, but it's not toxic to say it's good for those who don't like it. ??

[warm swan]

you have infinite ammo for gadgets with his loadout crate

[wooden nymph]

ffs duel me

[tidal hare]

it is toxic to attack other people for liking the game

[solar tinsel]

that thing is technically the Specialty right? someone got it though: trait is revive with full ammo

[still vault]

Just read the rule I just posted for you and you get your answer

[hearty flame]

nah. if this is gonna the be content pacing then im betting that ea already decided to stop funding 2042 after y1

[wild sapphire]

So we will have around 7-10 weapons this season not bad

[somber widget]

Prob more like 5-6

But yes

[tidal hare]

2 mainhand 1 offhand, on release 2 portal

[open tangle]

Whenever I call down the supply drop my teammates run past it

[wooden nymph]

Supply bag and crate are gadgets, yeah
His trait is just fast reviving + full ammo refill

[tidal hare]

and 3(+) coming during the season

[wooden nymph]

3 new ones and 5 portal ones

That's 8

[errant scarab]

anyway, keep playing this game that already has a lot of content finished but they delay it so that they think they are working but they make a new bf

[somber widget]

We will? 🤣

[wooden nymph]

BF3 is literally more dead than Bf2, cmon bro

[fiery shoal]

so basically they are doing exactly what i wanted with specialists and classes

[solar tinsel]

I'm not 100% sure if all 5 of the vault weapons have a target for S2, but I think thats the hope

[somber widget]

Agreed

[solar tinsel]

"Between 5 and 8 weapons for S2" is probably the best way to phrase it

[lilac dust]

My whole point is that they are progressively putting more and more content out at a faster pace. Regardless of it's even viable for them to continue after year 1 they are at least not doing the bare minimum which would be no earlier than planned release dates for maps and seasons and just 1 reworked map per season

[still vault]

I don't know if it is exactly what I wanted but it is fine.

[somber widget]

5-8 but either way even just 5 is good

It’s a step in the right direction

[wooden nymph]

If I got them correctly, they are AIMING to release all 5 during the season. Dice be Dice tho

[wooden nymph]

tru

[royal swan]

Battlefield 2042 leaving beta lmao

[solar tinsel]

ah you know what you're right

"In later Season 2 updates, we’re looking to introduce weapons such as the P90, the AKS-74u, and the M98B"

[mild crystal]

Opinions on the new update?

[arctic grove]

Bro Discarded 2.0 is 🔥

[solar tinsel]

so, yeah thats the target

[foggy halo]

prove it

[somber widget]

So 6 for sure in S2

[hearty flame]

well not really though. theres 2 reworks this season cuz those maps are smaller so they can pump two out. and what they are putting out now is pretty bare minimum for a studio as large as dice with other support studios

[fiery shoal]

i should have worded that better, idk exactly what i want, but this is what i expected as a compromise between the devs and players

[solar tinsel]

Another step in the right direction, and stronger than S1 even it seems. Still pales in comparison (content wise) to the old DLC model, but... I'll take it

[royal swan]

Shit you got me, I can't prove shit for battlefield 2042

[solar tinsel]

at least, I mean so far they have been on pace so I'd say all 8 is likely

[somber widget]

Let’s be honest tho, the old DLC model for like BF4 and shit is never gonna happen again.

They do not have that core team anymore.

[wooden nymph]

"It's not much, but it's honest work"

[little lagoon]

I mean the big big ammo dumpy that let's you change your loadout

[hearty flame]

yup not gonna happen again cuz ea can make more money off mtx without putting out as much content

[solar tinsel]

exactly, usually the game would have been well off along by the time they go to post-launch team

[somber widget]

They simply can’t produce quality content as fast as they used to, or so it seems.

[wooden nymph]

This has nothing to do with the team. Old premium was never the way forward

[arctic grove]

Would the specialist system be better if they reworked it into a Battlefront 2-esque system?

[somber widget]

It has absolutely everything to do with their current team.

[lilac dust]

Did you see the orbital rework? There's almost more work being put into that than kailedoscope. Extra entry points into the tunnel. Walls stripped from the side to add larger cover. Some kind of base building in the hills, and looks like they added slightly more cover assets to it than kailedoscope

[royal swan]

That and the graphics are more complex

[river spear]

Why is that

[fiery shoal]

its more about modern gaming standards than the ability to being able to do it...

[somber widget]

And in regards to who left

[solar tinsel]

It seems as if DICE never really intended have this be a true live service, because if so the team size wouldnt have fallen to a traditional post-launch team size

I dont mean "skeleton crew", just the norm for post-launch support

[somber widget]

They are running on a skeletonized version of their teams

Y’all are simply inaccurate

[fiery shoal]

100% speculation

[hearty flame]

I mean as armchair game devs, we wont really know cuz we arent involved. it looks like a lot but it might not actually be much in terms of work.

[fiery shoal]

people talk out their ass too much

[somber widget]

Look it up bro, they had dev teams quit in waves

[fiery shoal]

source? youre making the claims

[somber widget]

It’s all over the social media if you’d pull your head out of your ass

[solar tinsel]

compared to full game dev, yes, but I think BF3, BF4, BF1, likely had similar team sizes post launch. The difference is, MUCH more DLC work was done in advance so the post launch crew had less to do

[somber widget]

It’s on twitter go find it

[wooden nymph]

Have you ever actually tried to look into the names of people who were leaving?

[somber widget]

You’re the only one disagreeing lol @fiery shoal

[hearty flame]

I mean theres more weight to skeleton crew vs all hands on deck. i mean this doesnt look like the work of an all hands on deck studio

[foggy halo]

how do you know

[somber widget]

No from what i’ve seen a lot of them wanted their names redacted

But still added their count

[solar tinsel]

again, I truly think it's "typical post-launch dev team"

[fiery shoal]

not even disagreeing, literally just said you are speculation and asking for proof... learn the difference

[somber widget]

Was a while back in the launch

[faint hare]

but when did season 2 actually present?

[hexed mango]

looks super cool. I cannot wait for the Portal guns to come to AOW, M16, M60, P90, etc
plus the 2 new 2042 weapons and 1 sidearm (unreleased) could be really really cool.

New map from that teaser is 10/10, cant wait.

Season 3 is also gonna be epic, with the specialist rework and stuff

Orbital map rework is amazing, cant wait

[keen loom]

[royal swan]

Two map reworks, portal weapons being included, the new map, new specialist, and two new weapons (non portal)

[hexed mango]

actually i asked sam, he said the opposite

[wooden nymph]

"people are leaving" Literally the "don't like it, don't buy it" guy and CandyCrush dev
Glad they left

[solar tinsel]

that's very interesting - that would typically imply longer term support

[hexed mango]

obviously his word is as good as he says it is, but

all I can say is we're still a full team, lot of people still on this project and working their ass off :P

[arctic grove]

Wait you've played it?

[somber widget]

@wooden nymph Agreed

[errant scarab]

imagine a BF where you can create 4 characters for the classes to your liking with personalization obviously with military clothes they are not going to put little colored things like cod

[jade hill]

What's ur gpu usage

[little lagoon]

S2 looks really good guys

Js

[hexed mango]

played what

[royal swan]

"Don't like it don't buy it" still hurts me to this day

[fiery shoal]

how? its literally common sense...

[arctic grove]

I mean you've playtested the new update or just telling by the trailer?

No beef

[solar tinsel]

yeah, I mean that's a tough thing to nail down though - because a typical post-launch team could still be considered a "full team" as in, it's the full team that was always intended post launch

[wooden nymph]

I will never play BFV because of him
Sad but true

[arctic grove]

Just curious

[hexed mango]

just by the looks of the trailer

[arctic grove]

Ah

[fiery shoal]

thats pretty pathetic tbh

[hexed mango]

i would love to playtest tho

[arctic grove]

I pray to God this new season is good

[fiery shoal]

"i didnt play a game because a ceo said something logical"

[woven acorn]

I kinda wish the military equipment looked a bit more weathered. It looks very pristine

[little lagoon]

Lol

Bf v is killer too

[royal swan]

It was about bfv, a dev said that and it fucked the game at launch

[hexed mango]

true, but by the way he stated the amount of work to be had, i would say they are not just a "skeleton crew"

[hearty flame]

ah those statements still make me kek to this day. "dont like it dont buy it" "how can i tell my daughter she cant play as a woman in ww2"

[wooden nymph]

illogical*
He never sold me the game. so I never bought it. I don't intend to now

[fiery shoal]

yes it was about bfv, him saying those words didnt make the game bad.. what kind of logic is that?

[jade hill]

@hallow rapids cpu usage should be high since its cpu intensive, gpu usage if remember correctly was in range 60-95

[arctic grove]

They just slapped a clean coat of paint on

[solar tinsel]

I concur, I dont think 2042 has a "reduced" crew in the sense that they pulled the plug due to resuts

I think they have been sticking with the plan

[woven acorn]

because from a development standpoint it indicates that you aren't willing to listen to the very people that fund your projects

[azure basalt]

Server browser when? 😩

[hexed mango]

if they were a skeleton crew, i would personally know literally all the devs lmao
nah but i doubt its a skeleton crew, i obviously cant say from experience, but its unlike its only a handful

[hexed mango]

never

[fiery shoal]

not buying something you dont like makes perfect sense... how you are twisting that to be illogical is beyond me

[solar tinsel]

and the post launch crew is left doing a lot heavy lifting to get us the stuff we have

[azure basalt]

Bruh

[foggy halo]

There's nothing wrong with the second statement

[fiery shoal]

except hes not a developer..

[solar tinsel]

In an ideal situation, the main game is SO far ahead of development that the post-launch crew has less to do, and has more content backlogged. 2042 did not have that luxury it seems ha

[hexed mango]

who, nyphon

[royal swan]

No the game wasn't bad I had fun. Mostly on the community view did it affect

[wooden nymph]

It's a BF game, bro. Of course I'll like it. He just meant that my opinion about the game didn't matter to him, so here we are

[fiery shoal]

and id argue that if people get mad over sensible words they are not sensible people and dont matter...

[pine roost]

The way I see it, it could very well be the entire dev team still, but the sheer volume of things that are being changed, however minor, as opposed to new stuff being added is what makes it feel like a skeleton crew

[somber widget]

^^^^

[fiery shoal]

he meant if you dont like it dont buy it... pretty simple

[somber widget]

Nobody truly knows.

Except for them

[fiery shoal]

i thought you did? you sure acted like you knew

[hexed mango]

yeah that's basically what sam was saying, sorta, he stated that there's just a lot of work to be done, and everyone is working considerably hard, regardless of the output, its still a lot of man power going into it in the first place

[somber widget]

Never once did i say my info was 100% true you’re just fishing bruh

@fiery shoal hop off my nuts yeah?

[wooden nymph]

Nah, he meant that their vision of the game was better and all the backlash was uncalled for, because "you clearly didn't like it, so why you bought it, lol"

[royal swan]

Alright, I didn't like the quote as it showed the dev being cocky, and showed that the community is picky.

[hexed mango]

but on the large scale of things, each individual change might go unnoticed

[solar tinsel]

I definitely dont doubt the team on 2042 is working their ass off, the Seasonal content plus QoL/reworks has been indications of that

[fiery shoal]

except when i asked for proof you said its on twitter and go find it... suggesting that you at least had sources for your claims

[foggy halo]

@somber widgetbe respectful wtf calm down drink cold water

[somber widget]

I have seen multiple threads and articles discussing this topic on twitter

[pine roost]

I love scowering through the patch notes finding smaller changes that actually have a big impact

[solar tinsel]

If 2042 got the dev time it needed PLUS had this level of post-launch work, it'd probably be the best BF game to date

[fiery shoal]

this was before the game was on sale...

[somber widget]

Go find them if you’re so pressed about it

Bc you obv are

[royal swan]

No, it would be a decent battlefield game

[fiery shoal]

nah i just know how much bs people spew and its easy to call them out, thats why youre so pissy about it

[somber widget]

This was near launch like i said, it’s been nearly a year lol

[hearty flame]

x to doubt

[somber widget]

Who’s pissy except you? @fiery shoal

[wooden nymph]

yes, multiple times actually. I really have no interest in buying the game because none of my friends will play it with me

[somber widget]

You’re the one @ me every 3 mins tf

[royal swan]

Best battlefield game title belongs to bf4 and bf4 alone

[hexed mango]

@somber widget

[woven acorn]

the guy who made the original quote was an EA creative officer

[shy grotto]

Time to make new friends here

[solar tinsel]

ha well, obviously all speculation of course

[fiery shoal]

yea.. EA isnt a studio...

[solar tinsel]

it depends on if they truly leveraged that time to improve the game

[royal swan]

I hate it but I miss it and want it back

[foggy halo]

he needs to chill, don't

[solar tinsel]

and add content

[dapper river]

YAAAH! Angel does it again!

[hexed mango]

[wooden nymph]

Wholesome ❤️

[royal swan]

Bring back old angel quotes

[hexed mango]

well we're getting an increase of guns from 2 -> 8, progress

[fiery shoal]

you mean i shouldnt use discord to... talk to people like its intended to?

[hearty flame]

even if it had all the dev time it needed people would still get hungover the fundamental changes. the player drop wouldnt be as bad but i still think itd be pretty bad

[solar tinsel]

for sure

[woven acorn]

the point still stands whether they're a dev or not, its still a company thats associated with battlefield and relies on fans to fund it so should at least be open to feedback

[hexed mango]

400% increase in guns per season

[solar tinsel]

perhaps you're right, well, it would at least be better haha

[wooden nymph]

it's just 8 tho

[somber widget]

@fiery shoal Once again @ me with bs, putting words in my mouth.

[wooden nymph]

not all on launch too

[somber widget]

You’re hilarious

[hexed mango]

8 is a nice number

[solar tinsel]

although you could argue that they might have had more time to rethink the system. If specialists launched like what is proposed for S3, I dont think it'd be as poorly recieved

[wooden nymph]

I can't argue with that

[fiery shoal]

youre the one getting mad that im talking on discord...

[somber widget]

[hexed mango]

China Rising DLC for BF4 only had 5 guns

8 guns > 5 guns

[somber widget]

Hella mad ik

[hexed mango]

2042 > 4

[somber widget]

Absolutely steamin

[left hollow]

This is probably the most hype I've had for 2042 apart from the trailers before it came out

[wooden nymph]

THE GUY IS SPITTING FACTS HERE

[solar tinsel]

it did also have 4 maps 😆

[hearty flame]

nah dice is totally all in on specialists. they are only changing cuz chunks of people hate them but they cant get rid of them

[solar tinsel]

do you think future BF titles will have them? I'm inclined to think they wont

[foggy halo]

rip @hexed mango

[hexed mango]

hey including reworks, we're getting 3

[hexed mango]

[solar tinsel]

I don't think the conversion factor is 1:1 haha, I do applaud what is happening now, but yeah....

[wooden nymph]

Also most of BF4 weapons were recycled from BF3. Checkmate, bf4 fans, your game is just BF3 but worse

[hearty flame]

if dice has learned their lesson then no. but dice has shown plenty that they forget everything when making new bfs

[royal swan]

[hexed mango]

ok but like of:
Silk Road
Altai Range
Guilin Peaks
Dragon Pass
which are actually any good?

[fiery shoal]

people talking about previous dlc like they didnt cost 15 bucks

[open tangle]

Bf4 > bf3

[fiery shoal]

and split the community

[hexed mango]

Altai Range i think is the only one i can remotely remember

[wooden nymph]

Dragon Pass was a BF2 remake so it was fire

[solar tinsel]

I think they wont but will monentize in other ways. The smart play by them would be to give the folks "make your own generic soldier" (which a lot of people ask for) and charge for helmets, backpacks, camos, glasses, etc.

[hexed mango]

[wooden nymph]

Bf3 > BF4

[solar tinsel]

If they did that from the start, they'd be making $$$

[hexed mango]

BF1 > BFV

[wooden nymph]

now that's a fact

[left hollow]

100%

[vast cloak]

Do y’all play bf4 from the browser or on steam/origin

[foggy halo]

depends if you like to play vehicles or inf. for vehicles it's Silk Road
Altai Range

[wooden nymph]

But Bf1 is still boring to play

[hexed mango]

i dont play BF4 at all

[foggy halo]

Guilin Peaks is good for inf

[hearty flame]

oh boy cant wait for them to give every skins goggles and gas masks so when we mix and match we have like 4 goggles and 3 gas masks per character again lol

[wooden nymph]

I play from battlelog

[lilac dust]

Microstransactions will always net them more cash than premium map packs so I definitely don't see the maps being free as a good excuse for not getting the same amount as previous games since they went all in on MTX with this game

[hexed mango]

hey and China Rising also added
Air Superiority returns to Battlefield. This is basically a Jets or Helicopter only version of Conquest.

its basically just S1

[slate meadow]

Wtf is going on with servers

[solar tinsel]

yeah the move to free maps was the right call at the very least to prevent fragmentation

[hearty flame]

definitely. eas getting much more money but putting out much less content

[vast cloak]

They’re adding more boins

[somber widget]

@slate meadow Wym

[solar tinsel]

so yeah it's definitely going to be MTX/Battle Pass/cosmetics

[open tangle]

Did they say anything about nerfing stealth helis

[solar tinsel]

not in the video, but they said they are doing ongoing QoL/balance, so that will be a patch note item if being changed

[inner roost]

Repair system armor and weapons are nerfed

[foggy halo]

not funny

[hexed mango]

at least they're still working on it

rather than just leaving it

[solar tinsel]

oh really? where did they say that? @inner roost

[fiery shoal]

idk about always, but map packs also split the community. its likely mtx are to fund map and weapons but we have no idea how much they are making from mtx either...

[slate meadow]

last 4 games huge ping and desync

even others was saying thinking it was a ddos

[inner roost]

Dev twitters

[royal swan]

Forget stealth helicopters, we are getting stealth jets. 💀

[slate meadow]

cant share my screen shot

[solar tinsel]

ah good to know

[open tangle]

Jets I’m not worried about they suck in this game

[inner roost]

Can't find exact tweets but they're definitely doing those 3 nerfs

[hearty flame]

well theyve already sold y1 passes so they kinda have to. bare minimum until y1 ends and then there goes the support

[royal swan]

It's a bomber by the way

[solar tinsel]

true ha. the 25mm are a bit better at least though

[dapper river]

We have stealth jets. Well, they're supposed to be

[wooden nymph]

Jets are actually very useful lol

[solar tinsel]

I Played CQ Enhanced (FNB) and holy shit jets felt fantastic in that, maybe even too much so

[slate meadow]

The stealth choppers are b.s

[solar tinsel]

they are, which is why I think they need a dedicated slot - but even so, they are still pretty weak in many ways. Would be nice to see them do more damage to smaller choppers like stealth and littlebird

[royal swan]

Sad that their rockets are ass

[fiery shoal]

orbital remake looking like its going to become the best map

[slate meadow]

Can't soflam them and they go sit 100miles up and just drop hbombs

[royal swan]

Just give us 4 to compensate

Not 2 rockets

And a longer launch time

[lilac dust]

MTX in this game is very similar to other popular games like apex in the pricing department. Regardless of having a smaller community currently with this game, they are definitely making decent money. I see plenty of people running around with the P2W scar skin

[wooden nymph]

We need vehicle per vehicle balance, that's true

[wooden nymph]

They don't have to be that good to be effective

[solar tinsel]

yup, they talked about possibly reclassifying them in the previous vid, but still too early to tell

[fiery shoal]

i can absolutely guarantee you that apex is destroying 2042 in terms of mtx income...

[hexed mango]

they could theoretically just refund $20

regardless, they're still sticking with the game to actually develop it... all battlefield games end support, this is nothing new

[summer zenith]

Operation locker is the best map in bf4

[hexed mango]

operation what

metro? locker? joe?

[solar tinsel]

I do think the class rework though will play a large role in making ground armor actually threatening again though

[foggy halo]

joe

[hexed mango]

i agree

[solar tinsel]

Operation 925

[summer zenith]

Locker

[river spear]

What you guys think about the k30 is it op like YouTuber really say?

[somber widget]

Yes

It’s nasty asf

[royal swan]

Y'all think the armor plate equipment is going to be a engineer exclusive item like the medpen for assault

[somber widget]

No it’s Assault

[wooden nymph]

Enders literally claimed that all guns are op, if you are talking about him

[royal swan]

Darn

[river spear]

In general

[somber widget]

Yea but the K30 actually is.

[hearty flame]

theoretically sure but this is EA we're talking about here lol. but my point was that EA isnt having as much content put out considering the amount of revenue flowing in. they could have dice put out more content a season but all we're getting is 1 new map, 3 new weapons, and some reworks and recycles

[wooden nymph]

k30 is fine after the nerf

[fiery shoal]

op? no, maybe a little too good at medium range, but its a bit too cqc niche to be considered op

[river spear]

Lmaooo is it

[slate meadow]

The nerf ruined.it

[somber widget]

PBX feels great as well, but yes the K30 is top tier @river spear

[wooden nymph]

not at all, still the most fun smg out of all

[royal swan]

Have any of y'all used the crossbow yet

Tbh it slaps hard

[river spear]

So what gun your consider op in your opinion

[summer zenith]

Yes

[wooden nymph]

PBX is literally better rn

[fiery shoal]

anyone complaining about ANY smg being too good is just mad they are getting engaged on in cqc while they have a medium/long range weapon

[somber widget]

@wooden nymph Yea i used it yesterday a lot, and it felt much better

[lilac dust]

I wholeheartedly agree with you. But apex is making stupid money. The sheer fact 2042's store items are priced as they are and using the same system of giving you free coins in the battlepass to entice you to buy from the store and then likely use real money to buy stuff after. I don't have the data to show on this but people are statisicially more likely to spend real money in the store when they buy the battlepass. We didn't even cover the money that they've made from the battlepass alone. This may not be a huge community, but BF4 had game purchases and premium purchases. IIRC that was it.

[fiery shoal]

only two i would consider are BVS and SFAR

[frail sparrow]

I love the k30, but it ruins the gun selection in bf2042 for me, cause none of them feel as good

[somber widget]

Lol

[wooden nymph]

now that's true, but you have to agree smgs are a lil bit too good on medium ranges

[hexed mango]

you'd think

in reality they rush dice to get the game out before vanguard for $

[somber widget]

The PBX is for sure if you have decent aim.

[hexed mango]

so yeah i understand the disappointment

[fiery shoal]

yea, i touched on that above when i said "might be a little too good at medium range"

[wooden nymph]

Really? sry then

[royal swan]

Shotguns need to change the crosshair

[river spear]

Pbx is it good in Medium combat

[fiery shoal]

no worries, dont expect everything to be caught

[somber widget]

@river spear Yes

You just needa hit your shots

[hearty flame]

lol ea could afford support studios to do groundwork and still get things done before releasing against cod. guess they love min maxing as much as gamers lol

[fiery shoal]

pbx is the "ease of use" smg, its easy to use but doesnt excel anywhere

[river spear]

The bvs is it good for long range?
