battlefield-2042

[eager spire]

most of BF4's DLC was unremarkable in my opinion

[thin copper]

IR is invisble to the eye whilst you dont have the NVG

i mean

[tardy tree]

hey they might up the content next season

[thin copper]

its still a better way

[tardy tree]

you never really know

theyre bad a communicatiing

[thin copper]

always has been.

[violet meteor]

I mean it's not ir, it's the lights on everyone's uniforms to distinguish friend from foe

[thin copper]

like in 2042?

[violet meteor]

Yes

[thin copper]

i find it ok

but not

[violet meteor]

I'm talking about night ops in 2042

Not being a thing for that reason

[thin copper]

yeah

WAIT

im stupid

[arctic grove]

I shall inhale a good amount of Hopium then

[violet meteor]

[thin copper]

i forgor everyone could be using the same operator

thats why they added the light

🗿

[arctic grove]

Mood

[thin copper]

i actually forgot why

[eager spire]

man forgot specialists were in the game for a second

[thin copper]

yea

memory is fuzzy man

OH THE miseryà

[tardy tree]

i forget sometimes too

[violet meteor]

That's a new one I gotta say

[thin copper]

but lets remind ourselves that they still made models for classes for bots only

[violet meteor]

Good to know this discord can still surprise me

[thin copper]

which is

[eager spire]

they sure did

[thin copper]

i actually find the models fine

ofc the BF3 and BF4 ones are the coolest

[eager spire]

i don't have much of an opinion on the models as i've not seen them

[violet meteor]

I think they could have treated specialists like the weapon pickups in bf1 and it would have been fine

[eager spire]

elite classes? ugh, no.

[violet meteor]

At any rate, this specialist rework in season 3 sounds good

[thin copper]

like battle pickups?

i mean

[violet meteor]

Yea

[thin copper]

battle pickups were some of them best stuff

[eager spire]

Battle pickups were a bad idea in BF4 and BF1 made them even worse.

[thin copper]

except that drone thingy in the last dlc in BF4

[eager spire]

i don't know what you're talking about

admittedly i've not played much of the Final Stand maps in BF4

servers don't really run those maps much.

[thin copper]

ive played a total of

hold on

300 ish hours of bf4

on pc

[eager spire]

I have 1200 hours

[thin copper]

but if i combine my console hours

its atleast over 1.3k hours

i used to be a huge console player

but i got a gaming laptop

and switched instantly

[eager spire]

the only BF games i played on console were Bad Company 2, and BF3.

[thin copper]

👌🏽

they were great

i remember camping with the truck launcher in my base

and getting 2 kills in a 1 hour game of conquest LMFAO

but it was fun

[eager spire]

i don't remember much from that time.

[hexed mango]

i’ve only played 4 on console, i’ve played basically every other game on pc

[thin copper]

i like also the fact that Bell Helicopters sued EA

[eager spire]

BF4 i've exclusively played on PC

Same with BF1.

I didn't buy BFV. Not for any particular reason i just wasn't that interested in it.

[thin copper]

its very good

[eager spire]

And that was probably justified since they added random recoil to that game.

[thin copper]

you missed out

[eager spire]

Naaaah.

I don't think i did.

[thin copper]

Electronic Arts has settled a lawsuit between itself and industrial conglomerate Textron, concerning three models of helicopter made by Textron aerospace subsidiary Bell Helicopter: The AH-1Z Viper, UH-1Y Venom and V-22 Osprey. The terms of the private, out-of-court settlement remain unknown, though the case itself has been dismissed with prejudice, Patent Arcade reports.
AHHAHAHAHAH

i still cant believe EA was sued by HELICOPTER COMPANY

but i mean

they used unlicensed models of the helicopters

so they kinda got what they deserved?

[keen loom]

Huh

Don’t really care

[arctic grove]

wait did ea seriously use classified documents or something

[thin copper]

nah

they used unlicensed models

without permission

[arctic grove]

ooo

[thin copper]

is what im getting from reading more into it

but still

and thats the reason why the Apache was chosen in 2042

Boeing AH-64 Apache

[tacit sorrel]

Holy scrubs batman

[thin copper]

even though textron is technically a subsidiary of Boeing

[violet meteor]

And you all played them

You're all guilty by association

[thin copper]

?

[violet meteor]

Pay up

[keen loom]

Dang it

[tacit sorrel]

My squad mates couldn’t reach a combined 10 kills in an entire match yikes

[keen loom]

I’ll pay you back in boins

[violet meteor]

Gladly

[thin copper]

sometimes sheit dont pan out

[keen loom]

That’ll be 500 million boins

[thin copper]

i really dont why they thought they could get away with that

but they didnt thankfully

and also

honestly the Apache is sexy ASF

and also the ka-520 (lit. Ka-52)

[violet meteor]

That apache is sexy as fuck

[thin copper]

has an ejection seat

[violet meteor]

Chief Pays With Boins

[thin copper]

the only helicopter with a ejection seat

it sounds stupid

its actually well thought out

"One of the Ka-52´s special features is that it is equipped with two ejection seats, if the pilots activate them, the coaxial rotors are blown off; the Ka-50 Hokum, the Ka-52´s precursor was the first attack helicopter that was equipped with an ejection seat."

basically the two rotors on top go boom and then youre out

[keen loom]

Flying spinny thing

[thin copper]

Nice Iroquois

[keen loom]

[sharp marten]

Tbh I think about what will the next bf will be I’m kinda hoping like a modern era 2022-2030 kinda era

[keen loom]

Maybe it’ll take place after 2042

Like how 2042 takes place after 5

4*

[thin copper]

BATTLEFIELD RU VS UKRAI

[sharp marten]

That won’t happen

[keen loom]

Oh no

[thin copper]

[wide shore]

It’s time for a Cold War Bf game.

[thin copper]

t72???

[sharp marten]

No

[thin copper]

m60?

[keen loom]

[thin copper]

i hear the hueys

[sharp marten]

No future no past just present

[wide shore]

One that encompasses like 1960-1991

[thin copper]

then T90M vs M1A2 SEP V#

V3*

su-57 is apparently used during the year 2042

[sharp marten]

In this next one I hope it’s like bf 4 against like 2 other country’s or maybe more

[wide shore]

Vietnam, Gulf War. Throw some Cuba shit in there too like BO1.

[thin copper]

i mean the checkmate was supposed to be released soon

[thin copper]

GULF WAR

AFGHAN

[eager spire]

BF3 had Afghanistan in it.

[thin copper]

true

then

[wide shore]

Modern War is just meh to me. Gimme Cold War USSR doing shady shit and post nuclear America

[thin copper]

the american pullout of afghan

btw RIP Queen Of England

[sharp marten]

What year was bf4 in?

[wide shore]

Orbital would be so much cooler if it was some space race era rocket.

[eager spire]

"You ever wonder what the fuck we're doin' here?" -BF3 Soldier in Afghanistan

[wide shore]

2020 I think

[thin copper]

average american soldier

[thin copper]

yes

yo nuketown 2025 coming soon????

[eager spire]

yeah. i like to think that question was based on real life

[keen loom]

Ew

[wide shore]

Damn I don’t even like BF4 and I got that right.

[thin copper]

the town will be nuked

[eager spire]

because apparently soldiers in Afghanistan were largely unaware of what they were doing there in the first place

[thin copper]

since ya know

2025 is coming

[thin copper]

yea

they went in blindly

but for also other reasons

you still have to consider that 9/11 was a reason behind

all of that

[sharp marten]

I’m hoping the campaign is in the events of 4 and 2042 to expand on the lore of 2042

[thin copper]

rip Pac

[wide shore]

Didn’t they tweet that the campaign had nothing to do with 2042’s story

[violet meteor]

Wouldn't say went in blindly lol

[eager spire]

They said the campaign wouldn't be in 2042.

As in it won't be added to the game.

[thin copper]

if they are unaware then what is it?è

[eager spire]

Because that would be weird.

[thin copper]

yea but no

[violet meteor]

Well when I went I knew why I was there lol

[thin copper]

not everyone

im sure

TM

[violet meteor]

I mean that's why orders exist

[thin copper]

😳

[violet meteor]

Wasn't like "hey you're going to Afghanistan for a year to catch Osama. Good luck."

XD

[wide shore]

Not a bad way to go about it tho

[thin copper]

didnt the SEALS destroyed his little wee

[wide shore]

[eager spire]

but they didn't even do that, seal team 6 did that.

and we kinda just hung around in Afghanistan for a long time after Osama died.

[violet meteor]

Yeah he died when I was like....2 or 3 months into my deployment lol

[eager spire]

And then we kinda just left it to fall apart.

[violet meteor]

My unit wasn't there to find him before, and we spent the rest of our time clearing out the farms and villages. Doing the whole hearts and minds thing.

[eager spire]

Apparently there's like, something like 7 billion dollars in banks over in Afghanistan, but they can't use any of that money for some reason.

[violet meteor]

I bet I could find some use for that money

Starts with B ends with oins

[wide shore]

I know what I could use that money for

New heist movie idea. Stealing from afghan banks

[violet meteor]

Or stealing the gold from Fort Knox

[eager spire]

It's not that they don't need the money, they literally cannot use that money. I don't remember the reason exactly, something about lacking personnel to authorize it's use?

So it's just sitting there.

[wide shore]

[violet meteor]

They should have sent us all over at the same time, lined us up and had us walk hand in hand until we found him

[keen loom]

It’s time for the boins heist

[lunar finch]

[solid imp]

I believe it's because the Taliban installed officials in their new government who are identified as terrorists and as such have their assets frozen. So government funds are inaccessible by the transitive property of who's operating their government

[grand prism]

So i started playing the Battlefield V campaign

Last night

I just finished the last tiger

[eager spire]

Still, the place is fucked.

[solid imp]

It's the citizens suffering just trying to live their lives sadly

[arctic grove]

2042 should add heist mode where we try to steal boins

Hardline moment

[keen loom]

Very

[hearty flame]

Cant change the country if the people dont want to change

[grand prism]

So the last tiger campaign on BFV i legit cried after finishing it

[west raft]

Replace HZ with this

Instant success

[eager spire]

What do you mean by that? What did the citizens do to deserve the conditions they're living in. They're in this situation through no fault of their own. The US presence certainly didn't help them.

[west raft]

Nor did the US funding of the Mujahideen

[hearty flame]

Well the taliban has a decent amount of support, especially among more rural communities
and the populace clearly wasnt interested in standing up to the taliban either

[violet meteor]

That moment where your proxy war turns around and kicks you in the nuts

[arctic grove]

Finally someone gets it

[arctic grove]

2042 Lore

[west raft]

Fr

[west raft]

The populace of Afghanistan has seen nothing but war poverty and bloodshed for more than a century desperate times for a people oppressed by foreign powers for so long call for desperate measure

Of course the taliban and by proxy bending the knee to the taliban is not at all the ideal but better men have done worse things when desperate

[hearty flame]

sure theyve been through bad things. but not sure that makes bending the knee to the taliban any more palatable

[west raft]

Oh shit yall have fun I'm like 3 mins over on my break

[keen loom]

[arctic grove]

Its 7:09pm for me

[violet meteor]

Yo she just spent her break like that

🤷‍♂️

[eager spire]

The US made a deal with the Taliban in 2020. Morale in the Afghan military was destroyed as a result.

at that point the Afghans knew they were on the losing side. I don't know how you could possibly blame them for that.

[violet meteor]

Shit morale was gone long before that

As in they didn't even wanna play soldier

[arctic grove]

ima b on afghanistan milsim server if yall wanna join

[violet meteor]

Dope

[eager spire]

Hell, the US didn't even bother properly training the Afghans, they were never properly trained in the conditions they would be fighting in, instead they just trained them under the assumption that they would always have US support. Which they now don't.

[violet meteor]

Lol they used to run away during combat, or just like go home mid mission cuz they lives close by

I have so many little moments with them

[eager spire]

According to the US Army's official history of the war, planning for Afghanistan was frequently interrupted by repeated requests from the Bush Admin for Iraq invasion plans. The Bush admin seemed more concerned about invading Iraq than anything else.

[violet meteor]

One dude had cowboy boots and a cowboy hat

There were some legitimate soldiers that were trained properly, but very few, and those were the ones that stayed and fought when we left.

The other 90%? Nah

[eager spire]

They were never properly trained on logistics.

The army was built to run on contractor support, and without it, it can't function. They could certainly fight and they did, but they couldn't do much more than that.

[violet meteor]

And that's not even including corrupt officers

[eager spire]

Like, i was talking with a friend about this in another server a while ago, and here's a comment he made.

"Part of the problem with nation-building in Afghanistan is also a fundamental misunderstanding of the place itself. As my favorite quote on the matter puts it: Afghanistan isn't a country, it's a place where other countries aren't.
It's a mishmash of dozens of different cultures that happen to inhabit the same area that's on the far borders of every empire.
Which is the other reason why trying to build a centralized government there never works. One singular government running everything is fundamentally at odds with how the place operates.
Even under the monarchy, it was understood that the royal family's reach didn't go far beyond the border, and royal offices in outlying provinces were more like embassies or consulates than regional capitals."

[violet meteor]

Yeah I've heard that quote before, it was thrown around alot on reddit when we left

[eager spire]

"Even without Iraq, our doctrine in Afghanistan was terrible. Common practice was to have US forces do as much of the heavy lifting as possible because nobody wanted to dedicate the time and resources to making sure the Afghan military was properly trained on all the toys we gave them.
This was exacerbated by the comically corrupt civilian government, which we insisted on running with Chicago Boys style neoliberal horseshit, so the state had very little authority or perceived legitimacy aside from the army. Pretty much all the capital was there to do was sign checks backed by Washington to whichever contractors showed up promising to rebuild."

[violet meteor]

It's true tho

[eager spire]

Afghanistan was a failure on all fronts. I don't know why we even bother holding 7 billion dollars over there, that's just money we're never gonna get back.

On top of all the money that was spent on that war.

and also all the people that died over there. we're definitely not getting them back. Just a shame they died for basically nothing.

...Anyways, baddyfield.

[tight mortar]

discarded has to be one of the most poorly made maps ive played on in years

needs to be discarded from the game files for good what a meme of a map

[eager spire]

they'll rework it eventually don't worry

just manage your expectations

[tight mortar]

yea i really hope, its current state is so bad i just leave the game whenever i see it pop up

i dont do that for any other map

its like the cod MW19 Piccadilly of battlefield

[keen loom]

[dapper river]

💀

imagine naming a mode after yourself that you didn't even create

epic gamer troll

[eager spire]

SquidG is the guy that made 128 player rush right

well

not really made it

put it together

the same way someone puts together a lego set

[keen loom]

I wouldn’t join that server

[violet meteor]

Still want frontlines

[dapper river]

that shitty mode DICE thought was a good substitute for the real thing when they were picking featured modes for the rotation. Fuck, so glad rush has its own spot on the main menu now, and Piss-Gee's chaos can be in portal. A win-win.

[eager spire]

I don't understand the appeal of 128 player rush

[west raft]

Mayhem blood chaos

[eager spire]

like, i don't think 128 players is a good thing.

[dapper river]

big number = more kills, according to bad players

[eager spire]

yeah but in reality it's just more random and there's less ability to move around and more places you could get shot from

i just don't get it.

[granite island]

That's if you have skill issue tho

[eager spire]

you know i try to at least talk somewhat seriously here

[lone wren]

What ww2 era gun y'all would use

[keen loom]

PPSH

[lone wren]

With drum mag

Or stick

[keen loom]

Drum mag

[eager spire]

Is the BAR considered a WW2 era gun

[lone wren]

Started in ww1 and was still used in ww2 so yes

[eager spire]

then that

[lone wren]

Started at just near the end of ww1

Me I would use a Browning M1919 MG

[eager spire]

Aren't M1919's really fucking heavy

[lone wren]

Yup

[keen loom]

[lone wren]

But if it's frontlines I personally would use a Owen SMG

[violet meteor]

31 pounds

Slightly more than a m240

[grand prism]

So question

[arctic grove]

I destroyed so many Wild cats with my hokum 🗿

some one told me it was impossible

[grand prism]

Xm8 prototype in AOW

When

[violet meteor]

Hm

[lone wren]

What do y'all think of the Owen SMG

[violet meteor]

It's only used by the Malaysian military

[eager spire]

I want a glimpse into a future where the XM8 was actually adopted

[bronze portal]

Anyone have issues with using an Xbox controller on pc and the button mappings are wrong or don't work? Only game this happens

[eager spire]

it's ok

[violet meteor]

When I was in the army the xm8 was talked about a lot as a potential replacement for the m4

[lone wren]

I want a reliable SMG and the Owen SMG was known to be really reliable

[violet meteor]

They didn't go with the xm8 cuz while the xm8 worked well and had no issues, it was just on par with the m4/m16

[lone wren]

XM8 pretty cool gun

[grand prism]

Beautiful

[violet meteor]

So no point in switching and spending all that money if it's more or less the same performance

[keen loom]

It is

[wide shore]

It was supposed to be. From what I read about it, they had a ton of first party attachments made specifically for it (which was the holes) and was supposed to be the future. But then Picatinny rails became standard. And it faded out.

Also it wasn’t a remarkable upgrade as you said.

At least with the MCX Spear it has proprietary armor penetrating rounds.

[violet meteor]

They are replacing the m4 with the xm series now

Kinda makes me wanna reenlist lolllll

[keen loom]

M4 forever

[grand prism]

The M4 is getting replaced next year

[wide shore]

It has served its purpose for a long time. Truly a iconic firearm

[grand prism]

By the one gun that we legit have in 2042

[violet meteor]

Xm5 and xm250

[grand prism]

Yes

[wide shore]

Is that the military designations?

[lone wren]

With what

[grand prism]

The M5A3

From 2042

[violet meteor]

Great I'm missing out on the avancys

[lone wren]

Ah that's right

[grand prism]

The new machine gun

[wide shore]

Is the Evolys becoming standard issue too?

[eager spire]

nah i think SIG actually calls the gun the XM5

[grand prism]

Is replacing the M249

[lone wren]

The XM8 LMG looks cool

[eager spire]

no

[keen loom]

[violet meteor]

Xm5 relacing m4, xm250 replacing SAW

[grand prism]

Yeah

[wide shore]

That’s what I thought. It’s sigs SAW replacing the M249

[lone wren]

How reliable are the XM guns

[wide shore]

And it’s appropriately shaped pouch

[keen loom]

Looks cool

[wide shore]

Reliable enough to become new standard issue

[eager spire]

i mean if they weren't reliable they wouldn't be getting adopted

[grand prism]

Well so you know Russias ak-12 and china's qbz

Can reach 500m

Right

[wide shore]

I heard some concerns about weight and the proprietary suppressor. But otherwise I hear it shoots great

[lone wren]

As long as it can handle mud etc without constant jamming

[eager spire]

The AK-12 is basically just another AK74 modernization with a stupid 2 round burst that doesn't add anything

[grand prism]

The bullet the XM5 is going to have

Can reach 800

[violet meteor]

I'd be more worried about dust and sand

[lone wren]

Same

[wide shore]

Yes they’re proprietary armor penetrating rounds.

[granite island]

I love using the nightbird

Just wish the rockets did more damage

[violet meteor]

Fuckijg Afghanistan had sand with the substance of baby powder

It got everywhere

[keen loom]

[lone wren]

That would not help the guns

[grand prism]

Yes because the US legit said fuck you russia and china lol

[violet meteor]

They had to have trucks come through and water the roads lol

[grand prism]

500m try having 800m

[grand prism]

Technically yes the concerns are high atm about the XM5

[lone wren]

Owen SMG despite it being ww2 was considered highly reliable

During that period

[eager spire]

Also, does anyone really know anything about the QBZ?:

[wide shore]

[wide shore]

I haven’t really done much research on Chinese firearms.

[grand prism]

All i know about the qbz is that is a chinese assault rifle forgot what bullet it has and it can reach 500m

[grand prism]

That's literally the Avancys

[eager spire]

Neither have I. I’ll probably look into it at some point later

[eager spire]

Probably 5.56.

[edgy oriole]

[wide shore]

To be fair, a lot of later WW2 SMGs were reliable because they were so simple.

[grand prism]

Probably yes

[keen loom]

You know what to flex

[grand prism]

I know the AK-12 is 7.62 nato

[wide shore]

It’s not. That’s SIG’s new SAW. The Acancys is based off the FN Evolys

[eager spire]

No it’s not it’s 5.45, it’s based on the AK74.

[grand prism]

Oh really

[wide shore]

Quite different

[eager spire]

AK’s don’t shoot 7.62 NATO, they are not part of NATO.

[lone wren]

Well compared to the Thompson and the sten the Owen would still fire even when covered in mud etc

[keen loom]

And the other when it comes

[grave vigil]

Sheeesh

[grand prism]

Man i forgot about the bullets

Lol

[violet meteor]

The avancys looks SCAR-ish

Me likey

[grand prism]

That's the avancys irl it looks beautiful

[edgy oriole]

[wide shore]

Indeed. FN Evolys.

[grand prism]

You got the drip boi

Sheeesh

[wide shore]

Both FN. Don’t fix what ain’t broken I guess. Lol

[keen loom]

He copied my idea

[edgy oriole]

[keen loom]

[violet meteor]

I got the battlefield 2042 vans high tops

[lone wren]

I like guns that can handle not getting clogged by sand and mud

[wide shore]

AK for you

[edgy oriole]

[lone wren]

Yeah pretty much

[wide shore]

American Chauchat would be your nightmare.

[eager spire]

I would like to have an AK. would be neat.

[lone wren]

French and American

[violet meteor]

They are made for winter use

Feel good

[lone wren]

With that exposed curve mag

[grand prism]

I want to buy the Avancys now lol

[wide shore]

The American one was more prone to jamming because of the forced ammo conversion. That’s why I said that one over the French one.

[edgy oriole]

Just bought an ak 47

[wide shore]

But yes. In terms of mud, the exposed mag was just not good foresight.

[lone wren]

Ross MKIII was known to be a hassle

[wide shore]

I wanna get an AK style gun for my airsoft collection. Not sure which one I want though

I was thinking about the AKS

[lone wren]

I wish I had airsoft

[wide shore]

I don’t play, but I like to get replicas.

[lone wren]

Ah

[wide shore]

I’ll shoot ‘em from time to time.

[lone wren]

With proper metal and wood

[keen loom]

Do I have drip

[wide shore]

Indeed

[eager spire]

I wanna get into airsoft stuff for cosplay/photography purposes. Seems like it’d be fun.

[edgy oriole]

I got that too

[grand prism]

Send me the link to the clothing store

[keen loom]

[keen loom]

https://gear.xbox.com/products/battlefield-2042-bomber-jacket

[grand prism]

I'm buying their hoodies their shirts and accessories

[lone wren]

Currently there is a gel blaster STG-44 that is made out of metal and wood I would love to go broke for

But I need licence to own one

[pliant knot]

So uhhh

[wide shore]

That’s my small collection that hasn’t grown in a few years

[edgy oriole]

I bought the bomber and long-sleeved. Just came today

[wide shore]

Australia?

[lone wren]

What gun is that on the top

[wide shore]

Sten

[lone wren]

Yup

[keen loom]

[wide shore]

Sten, PPSH (electric blowback), KAR98K (shell ejecting), P08 (gas blowback), MP40 & Thompson

[edgy oriole]

Way too hot to wear but I'll be up in it in a couple months

[lone wren]

That style of orange caps would be perfect for it to be identified as a toy

[keen loom]

Yeah I’ve been holding off on wearing it

[wide shore]

I really wanna get a Colt SAA too. They all are real metal and have mock shells you stick the BBs in. They’re so pretty

But hard to find these days. Which sucks

[hexed mango]

no idea

[keen loom]

Boins new emote

[wide shore]

Hey, that’s a lot

[hexed mango]

ngl i think way is obsessed

[bronze stirrup]

lol

[wide shore]

I talk more on this server than I do the server I moderate

[hexed mango]

99% of my messages are in this channel

same but that's cause my server has like 300 people and is mainly for support with stuff ive programmed

nvm more like 500

[wide shore]

MC server has 800k.

[hexed mango]

oh well yeah

[bronze stirrup]

the only other server I talk more in is for my milsim

[hexed mango]

i dont generally enjoy moderation

that shit is lame

im no discord mod fr

[wide shore]

I’ve been doing it for years now. It’s just part of my daily routine.

[hexed mango]

i make minecraft plugins, you moderate minecraft and do hogwarts shit, we are not the same

[wide shore]

I make Minecraft add-ons. Just don’t list that in my bio

[hexed mango]

lame

how much do you make from addons

if anything

[keen loom]

He needs boin money

[hexed mango]

fr

[wide shore]

I work on the marketplace. So, a decent bit

[hexed mango]

ballpark

[eager spire]

Moderation is an irritating job. But it’s a necessary one.

[wide shore]

Depends entirely on how much my content sells for.

[hexed mango]

not necessary if you do communism

ez

[wide shore]

First month was around 5k

[hexed mango]

[wide shore]

But I haven’t hit that much since. So

[eager spire]

I don’t know how communism would work in a discord server.

[hexed mango]

i make like $200/month from selling like one minecraft plugin on minehut

i dont do anything for it

added it like a year ago

and just left it

not terrible for this one platform

granted i could probably get more attention if i put it on spigot or something but im too lazy to do anything

https://github.com/sploric/lifesteal

i dont have the actual code on here, its not open source cause i dont want people stealing it

[wide shore]

Unfortunately I can’t make any legit money off my Hogwarts build. But my patreon does ok

[eager spire]

You hear about Patreon laying off it’s entire security staff?

[hexed mango]

epic

[wide shore]

Nope.

[keen loom]

Give me spare boins

[hexed mango]

i can barely boin myself

[keen loom]

[hexed mango]

i have a minimum wage job and im a highschooler

[wide shore]

I also can barely boin

[hexed mango]

an unfortunate reality

!first person melee animation

[hexed mango]

i concur

or just like.... dynamic animations

so its not a pre-set animation, but its dependent on the situation

[arctic grove]

Did u know that when the enemies are downed u can get a finisher on them if u melee

[west raft]

Everyone gets mod priv

[hexed mango]

yes.

[arctic grove]

2042 is the gift that keeps on giving

[wide shore]

Sometimes you just gotta try a push

[eager spire]

Sounds more like anarchism to me but what do I know.

[arctic grove]

[hexed mango]

everyone is equal = communism

[arctic grove]

Unless u don't work

[hexed mango]

no, everyone is normal perms

[arctic grove]

Then it's to the gulag

[eager spire]

yeah and there are probably reasons why no decent server operates like this.

[arctic grove]

[hexed mango]

dumdum

[hexed mango]

[arctic grove]

China does

[hexed mango]

lol

ez

Russia did, for like 50 years

[arctic grove]

Now they're a police state like the us

[west raft]

69 akschually

Or wait

Nah 70

[lone wren]

As a gel blaster i would enjoy having a Owen SMG

[hexed mango]

ig yeah, its more like 1919-91

so 72

ish

[west raft]

1921 - 91

[hexed mango]

my brother has an MP9 gel

[west raft]

USSR wasn't established til 21

[lone wren]

It's not a Owen SMG

[arctic grove]

[hexed mango]

End of Russian Civil War 16 June 1923

oops

wrong reply

regardless

[west raft]

It's a mess of dates

[hexed mango]

yep

[west raft]

Cus like

Iirc 21 was when treaties were signed by different regional red groups identifying as part of a singular state

[hexed mango]

stalin himself ruled for like 30 something years

[arctic grove]

Now the USSR is trying to take over Ukraine

I was larping us vs Russia Ukraine in 2042 portal last night

[west raft]

I wanna die like Lenin 3 strokes and a brain hemorrhage

Just drag it out for unnecessarily long

[bronze stirrup]

Best way to go.

[hexed mango]

and to be preserved

[arctic grove]

Do it the butler way

[eager spire]

anyway this system would not work outside of a small group of friends discord, it’s terrible for anything larger than that.

[keen loom]

lol

charles probably got impatient

[arctic grove]

[hexed mango]

i bet he dies in 10 years

I wonder how the royal family feels seeing the Queen's death turned into memes before 24h have even passed.

M1 Garand

[arctic grove]

My thumb

[charred stag]

I tested both but can't decide. 40 MM cannon or howitzer?

[hexed mango]

howi

[arctic grove]

Gustav gun

[hexed mango]

cause why not

[lone wren]

Def don't want to get Garand thumb

[hexed mango]

tbh im having the most fun ive ever had in this game on stranded bt with avancys and pf51

[granite island]

I stg dice needs to increase the amount of bullet some of these guns have

21 bullets is not enough

[hexed mango]

yeah am40 is fucked

[arctic grove]

The avancys is so op rn

[hexed mango]

which is probably why i love the avancys and pf51 so much

[eager spire]

That’s literally a bug innit

[hexed mango]

eh not really.......

sfar is still better

bsv is still pretty good, but its def better for range now

[lone wren]

It's more DMR than both

[arctic grove]

I didn't touch the sfar until the m16 assignment

[bronze stirrup]

it's not the best in the game yeah its just the only consistent lmg

[granite island]

21 bullets with with base sfar

[arctic grove]

Launch pkp

[granite island]

Takes 9 bullets to kill

[bronze stirrup]

they killed the pkp though

[arctic grove]

U tried the m249 saw

[lone wren]

PKP pretty good defensive gun

[bronze stirrup]

People just aren't used to the lmg guy pushing them instead so they say the avancys is op

[lone wren]

What is the M60 good at in the 2042 era

[arctic grove]

Aesthetic

[proud gorge]

its ok

[arctic grove]

I be using the m249 mostly

[granite island]

Man

[bronze stirrup]

Its just kinda middle ground yea

[granite island]

20 kills

And 50 assists

[lone wren]

What about the newer 2042 era LMG is that decent

[granite island]

Everyone stealing my kills

[hexed mango]

7kd game with the avancys lmao

[proud gorge]

its sorta op

[arctic grove]

It’s very easy to control

[bronze stirrup]

LCMG just feels so eh cus of the way lmgs act in this game

[arctic grove]

You what isn't easy to control, the aek

[lone wren]

Good all round gun then when attacking and defending objectives

[hexed mango]

which gun

avancys?

[lone wren]

I have no idea what it's called because I am out of the loop

[arctic grove]

They added the barret also

[hexed mango]

the one that is new with S2?

[arctic grove]

Lc lmg?

[lone wren]

Yes

[hexed mango]

yeah, avancys

its really fun

[arctic grove]

Chonky scar

[arctic grove]

Yea, that’s why I kinda like it. Since people want more unique guns in 2042 it does both defending and attacking well without a bipod being necessary in your plus menu

[hexed mango]

i still add the bipod cause its fun

[lone wren]

Looks like a Scar LMG

[hexed mango]

thats what it basically is

FN Evolys irl

[arctic grove]

It’s probably a sniper with the bipod honestly ima try it out some time

[lone wren]

Ah

[arctic grove]

The plus menu has one major downside, laser plus grip combo is impossible

[bronze stirrup]

Evolys is an upgrade from the Minimi

[proud gorge]

i just Notiecd the T1 skin For Mackay

his beard is longer

a little

[hexed mango]

yeah thats the rework iirc

wait no

it looks the same

[arctic grove]

Badass

[arctic grove]

Is it op? I just run it with the long barrel/Warhawk and ads/moving accuracy grips

[proud gorge]

you dont need the moving accuracy grip

well eh

[lone wren]

That one red dot for sfar

[bronze stirrup]

20 years from now side mounts don't exist apparently.

[arctic grove]

There's only one underbarrel slot

[lone wren]

Very open very cheeky

[arctic grove]

Either laser or grip

[hexed mango]

only thing i usually ever change is to switch scope with bipod for range

standard/extended is more than enough for basically any encounter

[proud gorge]

ew boins on BF2042

[hexed mango]

[proud gorge]

[bronze stirrup]

They just couldn't fit side mounts into their + system

because they wanted to do funny ammo instead

[wide shore]

That’s almost exactly how mine is setup

[keen loom]

[arctic grove]

I wanna run a laser and a grip for spray and pray accuracy

[zinc sand]

JUST unlocked the Avancys.. getting killed all day by that thing

[wide shore]

Gun is too accurate to waste it hipfiring

[hexed mango]

yeah.

[arctic grove]

I'm still in like stage 14 of the battle pass

[hexed mango]

L

[arctic grove]

When u got aim like mine hip fire comes in handy sometimes

[bronze stirrup]

I'm like 28

[arctic grove]

Damn… I’m far ahead…

[bronze stirrup]

I only play like a handful of games each day

[arctic grove]

It's cuz i spend most of my time on xp restricted servers

[zinc sand]

I don't usually do breakthrough, but man is it fun on Stranded

[bronze stirrup]

Cant sit and play it for like 6hrs straight.

[wide shore]

I’m around 38 or something

[violet meteor]

Ruination?

Only thing getting ruined are my enemies kd's

[arctic grove]

Lol

[hexed mango]

hmmmm

[violet meteor]

What game

[hexed mango]

guess

[arctic grove]

Bruh

[wide shore]

No way

[arctic grove]

[hexed mango]

take a wild gander

[zinc sand]

260 hours here.. but I did take a few month break after Feb or so

[arctic grove]

League of legends I bet

Same I got a few hundred

[wide shore]

Okay, Xbox says I have 860 hours but there’s no way

[hexed mango]

no, fortnite obviously

[violet meteor]

I'm gonna guess warcraft 3 reforged

[zinc sand]

See if I reach my BF2 numbers.. 1200ish

[arctic grove]

I'm hoping to get 1k by season 2 though

[violet meteor]

915 hours you could have spent getting maidens

[wide shore]

BF tracker says 414 hours. What the hell

[arctic grove]

U never know, those Xbox trackers are accurate, also what's ur gamertag

[hexed mango]

lame

[arctic grove]

I probably will run the SFAR again tonight, the avancys is nice but nothing beats the SFARs stability

[arctic grove]

Boins > maidens

At least for me as a console player that still can’t gauge the right settings so my aim assist properly works at times

[lone wren]

Imagine a M1 Bazooka in 2042

[wide shore]

All my stuff is on my profile

[arctic grove]

Bet we should larp sometime

I rather take the most stability I can get in a gun and not worry about controlling a recoil value that could end up pushing me off target

[wide shore]

It’s in the game. Just need to actually put it in AOW

[lone wren]

I meant for AOW

[violet meteor]

Why are you telling me this like I didn't know that

You fool

[arctic grove]

I meannnnnnnn just make the M1 a meme launcher

Have honestly awful damage against 2042 armored vehicles

Since it is a ww2 launcher

[arctic grove]

[wide shore]

Anyone who gives me a rocket with that velocity will become my king.

[arctic grove]

But who am I kidding lol, probably does the same damage values to all vehicles even in Portal anyways

[wide shore]

Those portal rocket launchers have INSANE bullet velocity.

[lone wren]

I personally a fan of Javelin

[arctic grove]

Javelins are pretty slow

[wide shore]

So easy to shoot down helicopters

[arctic grove]

Needs a soflam

It’s funny cause almost everything in portal is a step up from the 2042 stuff ngl

[wide shore]

I have a T1 M5 Recoilless anyway.

[lone wren]

In what way they are slow

[wide shore]

Mostly all helicopters.

[arctic grove]

Travel time

[west raft]

M5 Recoilless is a god gun tbh

[west raft]

Better at anti air than the AA launcher

[violet meteor]

Man, rewatching The Boondocks was a smart decision

[lone wren]

I rather javelin over recoiless with soflam

[west raft]

The Boindocks

[keen loom]

[violet meteor]

Noice

[wide shore]

I have 2 videos just full of heli destroys

[arctic grove]

Did they randomly post your full government name and address after that?

[wide shore]

I’ve been maining Lis since S1 dropped so I have much less zooks. But I still get some

[lone wren]

I done better in destroying tanks with javelin

[violet meteor]

"If the only thing keeping a person decent is the expectation of divine reward, then, brother, that person is a piece of shit - and I'd like to get as many of them out in the open as possible."

[wide shore]

Only need like 80 more vehicle destroys with her and I can go back to using the recoilless.

[arctic grove]

How u unlock Liz's rocket, to this day I haven't gotten it

[lone wren]

Javelin in AOW would be my dream

[wide shore]

You just play as her

[arctic grove]

Oh

[wide shore]

Ye

[west raft]

No way

[hexed mango]

[arctic grove]

Go to a church they all waiting for Jesus to save em

Yea you’ll unlock Liz gadget with her

I'll do that

And same, javelins would be cool to see

[violet meteor]

You're not playing mackay right

L

[arctic grove]

L

-999 boins yet again

[violet meteor]

You're supposed to be on top of the ship

[arctic grove]

Boris best specialist

[west raft]

The kill feed 😭

[arctic grove]

Turret go brr

[wide shore]

Love this

So does Lis apparently

[arctic grove]

Liz loves it to

Lol

[west raft]

Saw BSV SFAR 12M AM40 and PKP in a row

The meta fr

[arctic grove]

I need to play more Crawford again, I have a strange feeling they’ll nerf his turret into the dirt and then I’ll never get that glorious skin

U see the chat in that video?!

Which is funny cause I’d almost argue he could use a buff

[wide shore]

His turret isn’t even bad. It’s so easy to counter

[eager spire]

AM40
PKP
Meta

????

[hexed mango]

avancys

[arctic grove]

Avancys

[west raft]

If everyone's using it is it not meta

[arctic grove]

M16 is underated imo, that gun has fast ttk

[eager spire]

No they’re using it cause it’s new

[west raft]

PKP is old news

[wide shore]

SFAR is really the only meta gun rn

[eager spire]

PKP also got nerfed, it’s nowhere near meta.

[west raft]

Long barrel and foregrip on single fire 🙏

[wide shore]

And I would argue they shouldn’t even nerf the SFAR. The other ARs could just really use a buff

Especially the AK24

[arctic grove]

Dmr/ar combo

[eager spire]

didn’t the AK24 get nerfed at some point

[hexed mango]

rule 34

[keen loom]

Noooo

[wide shore]

They removed its single fire. That’s it

[arctic grove]

Uhhhh

[eager spire]

Should still be fairly strong then

[arctic grove]

Has burst I think

[wide shore]

The AK24 is my most used gun. But it has dreadful damage drop off

And significantly more recoil than the other ARs

[arctic grove]

I fell the ak24 could use like a black skin, kinda like that vector skin

[eager spire]

Sounds like a skill issue to me

[wide shore]

It’s really not. As I said, it’s my most used gun. But it’s clearly the worst AR

[eager spire]

I donno

Sounds like it could potentially be a skill issue.

[arctic grove]

U tried using the bar or the stg

[wide shore]

The BAR is a laser beam

[hexed mango]

trade ig

[wide shore]

I love the PF51

[hexed mango]

same

[wide shore]

Like having a pocket P90

[arctic grove]

That headshot buff really does lead to some infuriating deaths tho not gonna lie

[hexed mango]

just over half way

[arctic grove]

The pf51 is amazing

[wide shore]

I wish they’d fix the broken AM40 headshot multiplier. That gun could be good with actual AR headshot damage

[west raft]

So wait didn't they do a hotfix for the AM40?

[arctic grove]

Do u have these screenshots like on standby or are u snip tooling them on the go

[hexed mango]

they said they will

[hexed mango]

snipping them

[wide shore]

I know. But it would be nice if they hot fixed it

[hexed mango]

like

on the go

my clipboard rn

[arctic grove]

Fastest screenshoter I've ever seen

[eager spire]

2x was a fine headshot multiplier, I donno why they felt the need to increase it

[wide shore]

DICE loves messing with TTK

[hexed mango]

and i just take videos all the time

[wide shore]

Even when they shouldn’t.

[arctic grove]

Just play hardcore, every gun has fast ttk

[eager spire]

Hardcore is for garbage people.

[wide shore]

Hardcore ain’t it.

[hexed mango]

i take things at my own pace

no need for hc

[wide shore]

Current TTK is fine

[arctic grove]

I'm offended

Fyi I be larping on hc

[hexed mango]

i personally do not like hc, especially the ones in portal, but that doesnt mean they're bad, it just isnt for me

[lusty temple]

Which specialist do you think can bench press the most

[west raft]

Boris

[wide shore]

I don’t think hardcore works for a game like BF. It results in everyone just sniping.

[hexed mango]

dice loves making VCAR skins yet they neglect it so hard

[eager spire]

Imagine larping as military with no armor

[hexed mango]

or using a dmr to get OHK and spam

[lone wren]

Why do y'all think playing as lis is the option for a javelin replacement

[arctic grove]

Not really, ppl can kill u just as fast with an AR

[wide shore]

If I want to play a more hardcore experience. I just play a game that is built around it. Like HLL

[hexed mango]

it isnt tho?

theyre adding jav in s3

[eager spire]

Sniping or just otherwise camping. It’s not fun at all, and honestly, I don’t think it should be in the game

[lone wren]

It's a TV rocket launcher

And a javelin is lock on

[eager spire]

Objectively false.

[arctic grove]

Have u tried the actual hc portal servers, not the 1 tap ones

[real pawn]

Yo is that

[arctic grove]

How

[eager spire]

Oh Christ.

[wide shore]

I haven’t played hardcore in many years.

[hexed mango]

joe mama

[west raft]

We need to see the return of the American dream from hardline

[wide shore]

It’s just not for me.

[eager spire]

I was thinking of 60% HP, like regular official Hardcore

[hexed mango]

ok im not gonna play more 2042 tonight

time to play some cowboy game

[keen loom]

Sad

[hexed mango]

or cyberpunk

[keen loom]

Cowboy game

[eager spire]

But those 800% damage servers can go to hell.

[keen loom]

[hexed mango]

should i play rdr2 or cyberpunk new update

[arctic grove]

Yeah

[wide shore]

Have you played rdr2 before

[arctic grove]

Cp2077

[keen loom]

Jesse Mcreee

[wide shore]

Or is it first playthrough

[hexed mango]

just started playing it a few days ago, im sad i havent played it sooner

first playthrough

[wide shore]

Play RDR2 then. Every day

[west raft]

Keep playing it then

[keen loom]

R2DR was a great game

[hexed mango]

lol

[west raft]

Ye

[arctic grove]

Ye rdr2 actually

[wide shore]

I like cyberpunk. But it’s no rdr2

[hexed mango]

ok

[keen loom]

Spell mistake fail

[violet meteor]

Spend hours mending those fences

Collect pelts

[hexed mango]

i keep getting into fights in rdr2 and then get bounties and then i cant do shit

[wide shore]

I need to go smash that high score on roach race

[hexed mango]

:(

[violet meteor]

Shoot hillbillys

[hexed mango]

yeah perri knows

[lone wren]

Do y'all think there should be weak spots on tanks making those spots do more damage to tanks when using recoiless and lis

[eager spire]

I don’t understand why someone would willingly spend time on that. It’s an insult to weapon balance.

[west raft]

https://tenor.com/view/rdr2-arthur-morgan-you-sir-are-a-fish-fish-fishing-gif-21640724

[eager spire]

Is that not how it works

[keen loom]

Boins second favorite cowboy

[hexed mango]

i dm'd perri a lot about my rdr2 times

[wide shore]

I’d say yes. But tanks are also super underpowered already

[hexed mango]

oh yeah

my idol

[keen loom]

[arctic grove]

I try to find good hardcore servers to larp on

[wide shore]

I think rockets do a flat amount of damage in 2042.

[hexed mango]

i made like $200 in rdr2, just to use most of it to pay off a bounty

[eager spire]

Meh, battlefield is not a larping game. It’s not made for that.

[eager spire]

Hm.

[keen loom]

I haven’t touched RDR2 in months

[lone wren]

It is very interesting to try and "balance" between making tanks stronger vs making rocket launchers better

[eager spire]

I mean tanks are weaker because they lack any sort of protection from explosives

[arctic grove]

It is when I larp on it, TANGO SPOTTED, and the visuals are uncanny to irl

[wide shore]

Tanks should have a bit more health. Or, just a APS. Then yes, add weak spots

[lone wren]

Yet rocket launchers do anything

[wide shore]

However. Never bring back ricocheting rockets. That shit pissed me off

[arctic grove]

No vehicles have enough health

[lone wren]

Bf1 memories of a tank shell ricocheting

[wide shore]

I mean, all vehicles yeah. But tanks are awful

[arctic grove]

Takes like 14 rockets

[lone wren]

Bf1 tanks were something

[hexed mango]

[wide shore]

Felt like it happened much more in BFV

[lilac dust]

The announcment from the studios today is cool but the wording makes me feel like we won't get a season 5 ..... " We're all in on the future of Battlefield" .... then just a lame little "We're continuing support for 2042" .... Was hoping to hear "We're all in on 2042"
