battlefield-2042

[foggy halo]

You're 💀

[errant scarab]

Yes i like 128

[mossy badge]

[errant scarab]

6 months

[tame cobalt]

either way i think irish aps needs a small rework

[mossy badge]

still we will mention years mercury

[tame cobalt]

it's too much of a hard counter to too many things

[quaint wigeon]

yeah like a 80-85% reduction would be valid it would also encourage players to use the repair tool more

[errant scarab]

You good

[mossy badge]

i like the name of stop neglecting portal

someone listen him for once

#DICE

[errant scarab]

Battlefield 1 in portal rn best atmophere

I want see that sh..

[mossy badge]

add passchendaele

[quaint wigeon]

its an insane counter one irish can counter a team full of sundances lol

[mossy badge]

😵‍💫

[silk surge]

That is true. But the Badge progresses through BP points and the free 40 points you get doesn't count towards the progression. For a Standard Edition player, they will reach tier 100 at 1000 Battlepass points, while Gold/Ultimate Edition players will be at 960. Which means that the road to 1150 is significantly longer for gold/ultimate edition players because those 40 'free' BP points end up being extra work if you're aiming for the T1 Badge.

[tame cobalt]

oh daaaamn irish would have to repair his aps that's cool

[errant scarab]

Not even by making a pact with the one below will they be able to have an atmosphere like this

[silk surge]

To put it more simply. If you include the 40 free points, Ultimate Edition players has to get 1190 BP points for T1 Badge because those 40 points didnt count.

[quaint wigeon]

repair tool not getting a lot of love 😦

[tame cobalt]

Ye

[mossy badge]

that's a tough question

maybe they can

[quaint wigeon]

wait are u saying that if i reach BP 100 before the BP challenges are done the remaining weekly challenges dont go towards the season badge?

[silk surge]

Not at all. What I'm saying is that the free 40 points you got at the beginning means that you have to grind 40 points more than Standard Edition players to reach the T1 badge, as those 40 points didn't count towards the progression.

[errant scarab]

I hope improvements are being added to portal because it seems to be still broken

[mossy badge]

how many tornados can spawn at once ?

[quaint wigeon]

ohhhh yeah that sucks lol

[silk surge]

And 40 points at the end stages of the Battlepass can take up to 60 games to get.

[mossy badge]

you have to wait a lot
they still have to add sandbags and concrete also shipping container in maps after that they can focus on something else

[errant scarab]

Sandbag and contianer to every map

[upbeat sand]

Anyone know how to fix audio stutter

[silk surge]

DICE explained on Twitter that the 40 free points didn't count towards the T1 badge because they didn't want people to have an advantage to get to T1 just because they paid more. But the problem now is that you're literally at a disadvantage for paying more. It's even more unfair.

[mossy badge]

soo called "REWORK"

[errant scarab]

When the season 4 is over I highly doubt they will continue with battlefield 2042. They will let die to put all the staff in the next game is reality

[silk surge]

Tbh.. I only read half your comment before responding to it.... If what you're saying is true, it negates everything I just said. I hope you're right.

[quaint wigeon]

yeah getting that BP point just keeps getting harder the further you go im at 24,500 idk if it gets higher than that

[mossy badge]

i think that will be better ngl

[silk surge]

In Season 1 it capped at 32k for me.

[mossy badge]

after almost a year it didnt became what i wanted soooo i already want a new BATTLEFIELD game

🙌

[quaint wigeon]

yeah thats a bitch youd have to pop off every game to get 1 point every 2 games

[errant scarab]

There are only 3 servers to enjoy in portal, the rest are servers to abuse XP like crazy

[mossy badge]

here in asia if i want to join it i will get 200ms

[silk surge]

I've found that playing medic makes it a lot easier to maximize your xp every game. Having Combat, Wingman and Objective ribbon at level 3 nets you around 20k xp.

[quaint wigeon]

logistics too

[silk surge]

Yeah

I usually get logistics to level 2 though... That badge feels a bit overtuned imo.

[errant scarab]

collect all the bots, make it shoot and give you at least 300xp for each box you throw

[obtuse adder]

If a standard edition player and an ultimate/gold edition player, played for the same amount of time, got the same amount of xp, and did every weekly challenge. They would get the T1 badge at the same time. This whole "4 levels"/"40 levels" is just an arbitrary factor that doesn't include the amount of actual xp you need to earn to get T1. Everyone starts at 2k XP, from there it's just overall XP earned and weekly challenges, Alexia Christofi who's in charge of progression for the battlepass system has gone over this many times, because it's a common complaint that's brought up. I know this because my dumbass friend bought the whole Season 1 battlepass and we only played together every day. It took the same amount of time to get T1.

[jade hill]

How game feelw like now? Haven't played for few weeks

Does mouse feels good ad bfV

Or nah

[mossy badge]

they must be LMG users

[errant scarab]

When paik movie?

[silk surge]

Ah I see. If both of you got to T1 at the same time then it confirms it.

[mossy badge]

[obtuse adder]

You can ask her, she's on twitter if you're so inclined '@Lex_mate'

[quaint wigeon]

wonder if s3 BP gona have more jungle camo or is it gona be desert camo

[errant scarab]

maybe there is a levolution about a giant sandbag breaking and making an avalanche

[quaint wigeon]

they should add that into the hourglass rework lol

[mossy badge]

concept art paik looks more cute imo

[errant scarab]

Nice

[mossy badge]

[silk surge]

The new takedown animation is really cool. There's an actual dogtag yoink in this one.

[errant scarab]

they rework paik recently and it looks much better you saw it

[mossy badge]

share me

🤔

i think i saw it

[hazy abyss]

anyone else having iseus loading? I just get the loading screen animations, but no GUI or the likes. Have tried repairing game twice , no luck

[errant scarab]

https://youtu.be/R8ZsfWjwgRk

[mossy badge]

still i liked the concept art one more
but i think they definitely made her look better

[errant scarab]

I want to grab her cheeks

[mossy badge]

her 👀

[errant scarab]

Oh u want anime design

[mossy badge]

[errant scarab]

Yes i agree

[mossy badge]

battlefield fans will cancel me

[errant scarab]

Concept design is better

Boris too

[mossy badge]

yeah boris looks crazy in concept art 😂

[strong rampart]

I thought you couldnt ever open the doors on top of ship in stranded on breakthrough

[errant scarab]

he looks like a tough guy

[errant scarab]

Omg

[errant scarab]

Dude

Why ingame is diferent

[mossy badge]

sometimes i feel like they fired the concept art/artist dude or they are just fanart stuff on internet

[mossy badge]

[errant scarab]

Why they change de design

[mossy badge]

i have no idea

[errant scarab]

Well, sometimes things work like this

[lucid goblet]

[fierce peak]

Is 2042 more stable in terms of performance after the most recent update?

[next onyx]

Yeah it's been pretty good the past few patches.

[upbeat sand]

Sfar nerf when

[arctic grove]

2042 feels like a good game. Much better than what it was like at launch

[remote kiln]

noo 2042 has specialists #badgame #notmybattlefield

[arctic grove]

Petition to have only Boris as a specialist.

[arctic grove]

Why is it when a game ends everyone leaves

[low timber]

What game mode?

If it’s Breakthrough/Rush it’s because they don’t want to plant the opposite team, on others it might be they just quit out of old habit

[cobalt dove]

Why cant they just let us remove attachments….

[lone void]

It's much quicker to go back to lobby and find a new game than wait 3 minutes in the EOR screen and then the auto queue timer

[arctic grove]

What can I put on the lcmg to make it lose recoil

[shell ermine]

Afaik there is no auto-quene on consoles. You have to go back to the menu after the unlock screens and re-queue

[lone void]

There is but the EOR screen takes forever to go away and then there's a 30 second timer to auto queue

[shell ermine]

Such a messy system when we had something perfect for the previous 20 years...

[lone void]

I run light rounds and a laser, with short barrel or a warhawk compensator for the really long ranges

It's pretty stable as is if you can control modest recoil consistently

I will say that sustained fire does start to get very crazy, as you'd expect

But I do recommend light ammo at least

The range to ROF tradeoff is worth it

LCMG had 200 rounds before Avancys made it cool

[arctic grove]

What are light rounds

[lone void]

Ammo type

[arctic grove]

Are they close combat ?

[lone void]

They're intended for close range but there's 200 of them and like I said, the minimal rage loss for the rate of fire, higher capacity and faster reload is great

[jade hill]

Does bfV still feels better then 2042?

I heard mouse input feela better but still feels floaty

[arctic grove]

Should I put on bipod

[frail sparrow]

I don't notive too much difference when it comes to mouse stuff, but movement wise it's better due how much control you have in bfv. From sliding to leaning, vaulting and the way proning works

But point and clicking is pretty much the same, apart from how guns behave

[arctic grove]

never

[next onyx]

Minigun.

[edgy oriole]

you need to use turret the way it was intended.....

by placing it right behind a man you snuck up on and shooting his cheeks.

[full burrow]

dafaq those people doing

[ember patio]

guys my game gets black loading screen without the blue loading logo after a match and it gets stuck there until i restart the game, anyone got this and found a fix for it? nothing about it in google

it happens everytime

[edgy oriole]

i havent heard anything like that.

[still vault]

"nothing about it in Google"

[edgy oriole]

[next onyx]

Two different people's cheeks were mine in another clip but in that one I just used it in the same sense I play as Irish.

[low timber]

Your heat bar being red is so confusing

[next onyx]

Look when the circle is full it means overheat.

And it's Orange!

[low timber]

Why do you have them flipped?

[fiery dawn]

Ahhh ok that makes sense. Thanks for the clarification

[shy latch]

why the sfar need a nerf? it's ok at the actual state

[edgy oriole]

m5 still better than scar

[low timber]

Well it does have a 75m range for 2 shot headshot, even Waygyanba, our Sfar connoisseur thinks it need to be reduced to 50m.

[edgy oriole]

he mains mcdaddy we cant trust him.

once they take mcdaddy passive away then we can trust him.

[low timber]

You called him daddy, we can’t trust you

[remote kiln]

you managed to kill one person it needs to be nerfed now

[edgy oriole]

MCdaddy

[next onyx]

O.o

I main Mackay though.

I'm an average Mackay ENJOYER.

[remote kiln]

too bad you can't be having things that kills people in battlefield it's not fair on the casual players

[shy latch]

imo it's ok, I mean speaking broadly the M5 is "intended" as short range assault rifle, AK for mid range and the SFAR for long range

[ember patio]

you get black loading screens on launch on google, mine is after matches i did all those they suggested which just upgrade drivers and windows just basic things

[tame cobalt]

audio sounding nice

[fervent grotto]

Is the P-90 any good?

Because I mean the last two guns ported from old games were awful (imo)

[tame cobalt]

[low timber]

Huh, the PF51 did get a nerf.

[pine roost]

It’s got no recoil whatsoever, but that seems to be intentional since in most games I’ve played it’s intended for long range

[tame cobalt]

bruh

sfar melts

[pine roost]

Don’t get me wrong, it’s still great close range

That’s just the only reason I can see there being any reason to nerf it, but it’s not needed

[fervent grotto]

It is kind of the best assault rifle.

[tame cobalt]

reduce the 4hk range

[fervent grotto]

I think so at least

It’s fairly low recoil and high damage

[tame cobalt]

and nerf the nade launcher attachment which is literally a free kill button rn

[fervent grotto]

Especially the thermite one

[mossy badge]

you cancelled your pre order ?

[tame cobalt]

the whole nade launcher attachment thing is broken

it's not fair for some guns to have those powerful attachments

[fervent grotto]

What

For what?

[mossy badge]

MIIW ?

[fervent grotto]

No

But why are you asking?

[mossy badge]

your opinion on the beta ?

[mossy badge]

people dont like it

[fervent grotto]

I liked it

[mossy badge]

nice )

[shell ermine]

"People"

[pine roost]

I didn’t like it, and it was the first cod I’ve played, seems like it contradicts the way the series is meant to play

[fervent grotto]

It’s such a hard attachment to get correct

[mossy badge]

what should i use there ?

[fervent grotto]

I feel like in games it’s either very gimmicky or very broken

[shell ermine]

Streamers

[dapper berry]

"some" people

[tame cobalt]

BF3 and BF4 balanced it by making it only available when you have the corresponding grenade launcher gadget equipped in your actual gadget slot

[mossy badge]

in BFV you like to play as german or american or japanese

[shell ermine]

Americans. Sherman tank is 💖

[fervent grotto]

Pardon me but fuck tank mains in BFV

[fervent grotto]

Yeah making it a gadget is smart

[mossy badge]

i also like to play as german or american female soldier

[fervent grotto]

I like Johnny

[tame cobalt]

yeah. and then the actual attachment on the gun is just an UGL rail. so when u have that rail attachment and the launcher in gadget slot, u get the underbarrel launcher

[fervent grotto]

Or whatever that one legendary guy is named

[mossy badge]

silverhand ?

[tame cobalt]

then they can add grenade launchers to assault class

cuz assault class needs gadgets

[mossy badge]

your favorite sniper rifle ?

[fervent grotto]

I thought that the UGL rail just made it to where the 40mm was attached to your gun so you could operate it faster

[fervent grotto]

Boys AT rifle

[tame cobalt]

yes

[mossy badge]

i like ross mk3

[tame cobalt]

if u have the rail on the gun and the launcher in the gadget slot, u get the launcher on the gun

otherwise u don't

[fervent grotto]

Yeah and then you just hold it separately right?

[next onyx]

@low timber Got it. If I didn't have a depressive episode I would have had it sooner.

[fervent grotto]

It’s either attached to your gun so you use it faster or it’s a completely different thing you gotta pull@out

[low timber]

Jesus Way

[tame cobalt]

yeah if u don't have the rail attachment you gotta use the launcher as a seperate gadget

and if u don't have the launcher the rail is useless

[next onyx]

Looks nice with the p50.

[tame cobalt]

which isn't a problem because we have plus system

[low timber]

Btw, @next onyx, apparently PF51 damage was reduced from 22 to 15

[next onyx]

Oh wow.

No wonder why it felt a bit weaker.

Can't say I hate it?

I'll test it.

[low timber]

I can, died to a Sfar user who survived with 2 hp because of the PF51 nerf

[pine roost]

does the flashbang effect ai? Doesn't seem to from my experience but idk for sure

[next onyx]

18 damage would of been serviceable.

Not 15.

7HK whew.

[low timber]

And it has reduced HS multiplier as well…

[tame cobalt]

Pog

[next onyx]

I didn't know that pistols were submachine guns.

Cause the m1911 literally has the exact same multiplier.

[low timber]

The side arms are quite miserable

[next onyx]

They're pathetic.

[low timber]

Why did you pin my message in the DMs?

[next onyx]

I needed to remember the aim trainer code.

[low timber]

Ah

AANJ7Z, memorized it

[next onyx]

Jesus fucking christ yeah it's been reduced to 15.

[low timber]

But after Orbital rework it’s not gonna work well anymore sadly

[next onyx]

It's a 7 - 8 hit kill.

That is beyond pathetic.

a 6 to 7 would of made more sense.

[low timber]

No point to use it anymore pretty much

Like why are the side arms so pathetic?

[next onyx]

Maybe dice doesn't want good side arms?

[low timber]

Feel like you have better odds of survival by reloading the primary than swapping

[next onyx]

At this stage yeah.

[low timber]

Like even with SWS and DXR, if the enemy is at 20m or less, just quick scope

[next onyx]

This whole reduced headshot multiplier is stupid.

[low timber]

And the SWS has a masterkey that pre S2 didn’t even ohk at any range

And the other masterkey’s ohk range was ~15m, so 5m less than a bolt…

[pine roost]

oh man I just got messed up by that ground magnetism again

[low timber]

And M26 mass with buckshot on M16A3 has ohk range of 10m

[next onyx]

Like again. These headshot changes make zero sense.

There's zero reason for it to be done.

It's just changes for the sake of changes.

It doesn't add anything to the game.

[pine roost]

the smg ones?

[next onyx]

Yeah and they also apply to the pistols.

[low timber]

On PP29 I can understand it as it was a 2 headshots to kill

[next onyx]

...For whatever reason.

[low timber]

But yeah, making headshots to miserable is dumb

[next onyx]

It would be a two hit kill for the 28 damage submachine guns anyways.

[low timber]

But yeah, seems like I need to go test the side arms in that portal code to check which is even usable anymore

[next onyx]

I just tested them all.

The g57 I guess is back on the table.

[low timber]

sigh

And that wasn’t really great ether

[next onyx]

That's the thing.

They're not good pistols. They're crap.

The p50 was actually powerful because well. It did what the g57 did but better. I thought it was too powerful for a side arm yes but this is dumb.

[low timber]

I thought it was pretty ok before, the PF51

As it was only good at close range, and even then not op, as you’d still could be easily beaten

[pine roost]

only reason I think they did it is because some smgs would just 1 frame you by accident

[low timber]

Well, the TTD is not great

[next onyx]

Your accuracy should be rewarded.

[low timber]

In BFV they did manage to get the TTD in a good position without touching the TTK much, but can’t remember was that pre or post the infamous 5.2 update

[next onyx]

Not be swindled like that.

5.2 was a fucking mess.

[low timber]

Way, was the M44 still ohk headshot?

Or did that get the smg multiplier as well

[next onyx]

Yeah it does one hit kill.

[low timber]

To 100m?

[next onyx]

Yeah.

[low timber]

Sadly it’s hip fire is massive

[next onyx]

If it had the 1.25 it would only do what. 80?

So it was a conscious effort to fuck the sidearms even further.

[low timber]

Also the PF51 hip fire wasn’t made any tighter ether? To balance it to the reduced damage.

[next onyx]

Nah.

It's still the same.

[low timber]

I did equip the tactical comp and laser and the white lines did go closer than with only one of them

[next onyx]

It's funny.

With the logic that they applied on the SMG's, Shouldn't that apply to LMG's?

Or are they single handedly narrowing it down to submachine guns and sidearms because... fuck them?

[low timber]

Next: shotguns get 0.7x HS multiplier

So from a possible 100 dmg you’d only do 70

[next onyx]

0.5 body damage.

[low timber]

That would be just a nerf, not a multiplier change

[next onyx]

True.

[low timber]

Well, on shotguns the headshot multiplier is already at 1.0x

Excluding slugs

[next onyx]

Slugs only good on the Saiga.

On the 880 they're miserable.

[low timber]

880 is miserable all round

Like even in the stream the only mention to shotguns was to reduce the range, again.

[thorny violet]

I cant find how far you can rank a gun in portal moderate xp, everything saiys "level 12 cap"

wtf is level 12 for a gun,... I show T5-T1?

[low timber]

Mastery 12

[thorny violet]

where do I see current mastery?

vs just Tiers?

[low timber]

In the collection screen

One mastery rank is every 30 kills

[thorny violet]

ohhhh

[low timber]

On guns, gadgets have different, like 100 spots and others

[thorny violet]

So cant even get to T4 with it

[low timber]

T3 is max in modes with Bots

[thorny violet]

woops you're right I was looking at a specialist lol

thanks man

[next onyx]

They need to turn the 880 into an actual shotgun not a sniper.

I hate shotguns with a passion.

But I just feel as if the only good one is a cancerous 12M auto that who cares that it doesn't kill in one hit. You've got 20 spare rounds.

That and purposely making battlepass weapons broken as hell to get people to buy it.

Or grind.

E.g Avancy's.

[low timber]

And the MCS-880 has max range of 20m to ohk, and even then if too many pellets miss it’s not

[next onyx]

Give us the m1897.

Give those stats to the 880.

Fast pump, 8M OHKO like a proper shotgun.

Allow aggressive play.

[low timber]

8m? That’s so short

[civic ferry]

very gay game

[next onyx]

I'd rather fast repump than a long repump.

[low timber]

Then even the bolt rack on the Ghostmaker would be better

[next onyx]

Fast pump!

[low timber]

Then it should be straight up auto, 12M Auto.

[next onyx]

Slam pump!

[pine roost]

holo sight snipers go hard

in any game really

but i'm just playing solo rn

[low timber]

MCS has been designed to not work with slam fire!

[next onyx]

I'll make it work!

I'll pump it hard.

This is gonna get really fucking weird I should stop LOL.

[digital turret]

Omg, FND bf3 vs bc2, so bad balance, bc2 have no attack air vehicle, and bf3 guys just smash your face, Dice pls

[quick linden]

fastest way to level up battlepass?

[formal imp]

Money

[next onyx]

Lots of kills.

Points.

[chilly jacinth]

playing the game

[silk surge]

Aim assist is so insanely strong now. It almost automaticly target switches during flanks.

[chilly jacinth]

thats fair and balanced

[tiny python]

Already starting to cba with this game

Bought it what, 2 days ago

[chilly jacinth]

rip refund

[tiny python]

Only paid £10 for brand new copy

But the game is so unfair for new players

Like give me a scar, that BS lmg or the k30 seems to be the meta

[chilly jacinth]

so your complaint is that you cant be a meta abuser

kekw

[tiny python]

No

My complaint is I can't get guns near on the same level

Especially as extended mags are a way off

[foggy halo]

Use sexy guns

[tiny python]

I need the scar for unlock the sexy gun

M16

[chilly jacinth]

the guns you start with are good though

[foggy halo]

M5A3

[tiny python]

Best one I got is pp

[arctic grove]

hey is anyone else having a problem where they get kicked instantly by the anticheat after you join a match

i had this happen since a week now

and i wanna do the weekly quests

i cant

i tried updating the anti cheat software and such but nothing worked

and its, very annoying

[tiny python]

As I mentioned, don't get extended mags for a while

[chilly jacinth]

extended mags wont make the gun any better than it already is

[tiny python]

It helps alot

[chilly jacinth]

try verifying your game files

[tiny python]

I picked up k30 with extended mag and it's unfair

[arctic grove]

pretty sure i tried already, but ill do it again

[tiny python]

Hit a quad straight away, because it had the ammo capacity to do so

[fervent grotto]

I feel that is false

[chilly jacinth]

cope

[uncut bay]

extended mags compensate bad aim

• you can go on longer kill streaks without reloading

[fervent grotto]

Yeah exactly

Reload time goes up slightly

And I forgot if this game shows your movement speed with bigger mags

But I’d say that yes, extended mags make guns better

So cope+seethe I guess?

[next onyx]

Extended mags don't affect movement speed.

Only reload speed.

[simple galleon]

More pewpew= More better no?

[pine roost]

Gun shoot bullet, enemy die, gun shoot more bullet, more enemies die, simple

[arctic grove]

weird, turns out i had 4 corrupt files

they have been redownloaded

hopefully that fixes it

thanks

[chilly jacinth]

🤞

[uncut bay]

love lis

[pine roost]

I hate lis so much

[uncut bay]

needs a buff but in high damage modes it's great

[lucid abyss]

just asking anyone ever been kicked by easy anti cheat before no i am not cheating before someone wants to say i am

[chilly jacinth]

well corrupt files will make the anticheat kick you

[lucid abyss]

ah was just sat sniping people and boom kicked

and its kicked me again ahahaha love this game

am i really that good at BF Damn

[vocal adder]

stranded at the backend of the boat near c1 really needs to be redone why have they made it like that its so stupid

[fiery dawn]

damn that’s kinda rare though to get the kill on a MAV with Lis launcher with how tanky it is

oh high damage mode I see now

[lucid abyss]

dmg inc by 8000% 🤣

[uncut bay]

yeah it's not ohk but it acts more like an m5

[low timber]

27 dmg per shot on MBTs, Wildcat and Ram.

[uncut bay]

i assume that's front armor

[low timber]

All sides

[uncut bay]

no locational damage for it?

[low timber]

No

[uncut bay]

good to know

[fervent grotto]

They buffed Liz?

[fiery dawn]

yeah just one more feature they left out on this iteration of battlefield :P

[fervent grotto]

Les go

[fiery dawn]

No

[fervent grotto]

Oh

[fiery dawn]

It was a high damage portal server

[fervent grotto]

Ohhh

Lame. She needs a buff badly.

[fiery dawn]

I mean idk if they adjusted her or not this patch but that clip was from portal

[uncut bay]

they fixed two bugs but no other changes unfortunately

higher damage or better turning radius would be nice

though i've gotten used to stealing kills atp

[fervent grotto]

PLEASE higher turning radius and more fuel

[fiery dawn]

If anything she needs her mastery system reworked. You need to earn mastery for vehicle assists and the total mastery requirement should be doubled to balance it out. All in all would make grinding her mastery a lot more steady and doable

[uncut bay]

yeah it's crazy long and just encourages people to not shoot until the target is on low health, which isn't great for taking down vehicles quick

[fiery dawn]

800 Vehicle Assists or Vehicles Destroyed (is what it should be)

[tame cobalt]

I vote for self destruct button instead

[fiery dawn]

I’ve only played Lis a few times but almost every time I’ve played her I’ll pick out a tank that’s sitting back on a hill or something to focus on destroying and I’ll literally put like 10 TV missiles in it and still can’t destroy it by myself

[low timber]

The rocket turning slower diagonally is annoying

[tame cobalt]

So if u time the self destruct right u can still deal half damage when u near miss

[fiery dawn]

If you’re the only one firing missiles into a tank or air transport you’ll literally never kill it no matter how many missiles you throw at it

[uncut bay]

self destruct + splash damage should also be a thing yes

so many near misses and it's just an entire wasted rocket

[next onyx]

As someone on the receiving end of the lis spam it does not need a damage buff.

A self destruct option would be nice though.

[uncut bay]

yeah i swear they start regen before i can even fire the next batch lmao

[fiery dawn]

oh yah

[uncut bay]

just useless to target vehicles at full health as lis

at least we can one shot stealth helis

that's very fun

[fiery dawn]

2 missiles into a tank and by the time you get another missile recharged they’re full HP again xD

[mild cloud]

HI

[fiery dawn]

yeah true lol

hello

[shell ermine]

Why vehicle attrition was better

[mild cloud]

Im aware that bf2042 SURVIVED.

[tame cobalt]

that's good

lis shouldn't solo tanks

[copper fulcrum]

Unless with C5

[little lagoon]

I just played kaleidoscope 3 times in a row..weird

[next onyx]

Yeah with c5 she should be able to solo them. But outside of it no.

[shell ermine]

Imo you should only spawn with 2 C5 charges instead of 3

[copper fulcrum]

Vehicle Attrition was one thing that made vehicle players camp

[next onyx]

Vehicle attrition was annoying.

[low timber]

AT mines would like a word with you.

[next onyx]

Oh yeah mines as well.

[fiery dawn]

Which is why her current mastery system is dumb

[shell ermine]

Vehicle attrition made vehicles fun to use and fight against

[next onyx]

Vehicle attrition worked better for planes. Not tanks.

[tame cobalt]

[next onyx]

Tanks got the short end of the stick.

[mild cloud]

.

[fiery dawn]

.

[shell ermine]

It let them be strong without letting them roll through frontlines

[tame cobalt]

u have a point

[copper fulcrum]

But that's the role of a tank

[shell ermine]

Right now tanks are made of paper but can just hide behind a rock for 15 seconds to heal/resupply up

[tame cobalt]

[mild cloud]

bro

[shell ermine]

Heavy tanks in BFV could take tons of punishment but eventually they'd run out of ammo/self repair and be forced to retreat from the line

[next onyx]

The instant repair is nice at least. No need to replenish it.

[tame cobalt]

[next onyx]

2042 tanks are bad in due part of how crap their speeds are, the blast of MPAT and currently limited protection versus lis.

[shell ermine]

So if you dumped three bazookas into a Tiger you wouldn't kill it but you could make it pause/retreat and take it out of play for a few minutes

[next onyx]

Oh yeah and turret traversal for 2042 tanks.

[low timber]

Woah! One AT mine did 65 dmg to my MBT tank, testing in a solo server again

[next onyx]

They fix acceleration and turret traversal they'd be on the right track for them.

Oh wow.

[shell ermine]

You also didn't have helo spam in BFV to make tanks suck

Did they fix the main cannons on transport aircraft so they don't obliterate tanks in 6 shots anymore?

[next onyx]

It's been modified and it's less common as a result now.

Plus planes in bf5 can very easily invalidate tanks.

[shell ermine]

Iirc none of them can one shot tanks anymore and with attrition they only get one shot before they have to go back to base

[next onyx]

Bombers can crush tanks with ease.

And it doesn't matter that they'd have to resupply rockets because the tank cannot repair the damage off.

[tame cobalt]

in 2042 that's the role of certain aircraft but not transports

[next onyx]

Outside of a repair man but that just requires a bit more effort.

Transports are weird in 2042.

[tame cobalt]

Gunship

[shell ermine]

BFV also has tons of more teamwork than any other modern BF. I just got to ask for a repair and 9 times out of 10 I'll get it

[next onyx]

Lucky you. It's unreliable to get repairs like that from squad mates so I have to rely on my self.

[low timber]

Damn, the ram loses 80 health from one AT mine.

[tame cobalt]

in bfv tankers let me repair

in 2042 the tankers just drive away

[shell ermine]

They can just auto heal to 100% so as long as they aren't in danger why bother?

[tame cobalt]

[tame cobalt]

light armor class vehicle

[low timber]

Wildcat also 80

[tame cobalt]

bruh

so what will be in light armor category

[low timber]

Gonna call in hovercraft next

[fiery dawn]

hovercraft probably gets one shot

[low timber]

95

[tame cobalt]

Bolte?

[low timber]

Next

1 min for next airdrop

[tame cobalt]

how do u test with ur own mines?

[onyx vault]

shoot em

emp em

[low timber]

But I’m seeing these mines in a new light, sure they are the most visible things ever, but the damage is nice

[tame cobalt]

that's not direct hit

[low timber]

Yeah, I’m shooting them with the P90

[onyx vault]

You can put them under it and shoot it

same dmg

I use Tank Mines like most people use C5

Like in a lot of games, Tank Mines are much more damage than remote explosives, and have bigger AoE

[low timber]

Bolte 85

[onyx vault]

If you toss tank mine at infantry and detonate it, go boom.

[mild cloud]

who wana play bf?

[tame cobalt]

[mild cloud]

why not.

[tame cobalt]

not gonna play till s3

Taking a break

[low timber]

Heres the full resulta for AT Mine damage (1 mine)
MBT 65
Wildcat 80
ELBC Ram 80
MAV 65
Bolte 85
LATV4 95
Hovercraft 95

[mild cloud]

bro ur like those kids who hate and complain about every single thing abt the game 💀

[tame cobalt]

no I'm not

[onyx vault]

MAV is 65? usually takes me 3 to get a MAV down.

Maybe the geometry causes indirect hits...

[low timber]

Well, last time before 2.1 update i had vehicles drive over them without detonating a few times

[wintry sinew]

Battlefield

[onyx vault]

We don't talk about that here.

[wintry sinew]

[rotund matrix]

Question how do you get the new sniper?

Like what do you use to spot ppl for the challenge

[onyx vault]

SOFLAM, like it says.

[wintry sinew]

I enjoyed 5

[rotund matrix]

Yea ik but idr what that was

[wintry sinew]

Liked the chaos of close quarter maps in 4

[onyx vault]

It's the gadget called SOFLAM

[low timber]

Laser designator binoculars

[tame cobalt]

I wish they actually told us which vehicles they intend to put in the new vehicle categories

[wintry sinew]

2042 look bad

[tame cobalt]

No

[onyx vault]

... no... it really isn't.

At all.

Quite.

[tame cobalt]

@mild cloud i found the person u were actually talking about

[rotund matrix]

It’s actually good

[scenic tartan]

If its bad don't play it and don't sit in the discord for it hmm

[modest flint]

So I was using the SVK for the first time yesterday and it seems the high power is the way to go but the recoil kicks really hard. Should I run the short barrel to mitigate that?

[onyx vault]

I have had zero luck with high power rounds on anything. Also, I panic fire.

[lone void]

I can't aim

[onyx vault]

In my experience, not being able to aim at all is like 90% mouse sensitivity related.

[pine roost]

Anyone can with enough dedication

[onyx vault]

Bad habits on the other hand...

[lone void]

In experience I'm just really bad at everything I play

[onyx vault]

I think Aim Lab is still free.

Not sure what the kids use these days.

if you're on PC

Every FPS should have a shooting range.

[calm bison]

[onyx vault]

now you can enjoy BFV

[calm bison]

Now I can enjoy my entire catalogue of Battlefield games

BF4, BF1, BFH, BFV, and 2042

[onyx vault]

The true BFV is Battlefield Vietnam

Battlefield V is an imposter.

[calm bison]

BFV is kinda mid, now BF5 is perfect

[pine roost]

No, not at all, that is a concept that is simply wrong and will actively hurt your aim more than you think

[onyx vault]

Howso

[pine roost]

Changing sensitivity is just a bandage fix that never actually resolves the problem, you just ignore it. If you have shaky aim, lowering your sens will look like it fixes it, but you will still have the shake. To counter it you have to do the opposite and crank up the sens, focus on stopping that shake by working on smoothness and target reading. Challenge yourself instead of making it easy and you will improve so much faster

Good example, mini sphere voltaic on aim lab. You could play it on a low sens, but it will just be hiding the issue. Play that on 10 or 15cm / 360 until you can beat the scores you’d get on a high sens

In all honesty my progress almost completely halted before I started doing that

[onyx vault]

I can believe that to a point.

But some people have DPIs in the thousands, and the game still dialed up.

[low timber]

I think i heard Anghel say

anyone want candy?

[onyx vault]

Like, yes, you cannot dial down until you make no mistakes, because that will only make you slower and worse.

But there are upper bounds to what people can play with, and gaming mice go pretty high, and people who don't know better can default to high values.

[pine roost]

There’s a range where I’d say it’s simply impossible to perform well, anything around 5cm / 360 is nutty, and unless it’s for practise reasons I don’t know anybody who uses that, but on the other end going fro 70-100 is probably also going to hinder you. Basically anywhere in between is perfectly fine

[tame cobalt]

and how does that help my controller aiming

[pine roost]

It still does technically, playing on a high sens and learning to aim like you have a low sens (if that makes sense) is kind of a global method of getting better at things

[tame cobalt]

doesnt make sense

aim gonna download aim lab on my phone and connect my controller to it

[pine roost]

It’s mostly just down to focus, a high sens means you think far more about the motions you are making, and that greater focus for most people causes them to improve quicker as mistakes aren’t as forgiving

[tame cobalt]

[pine roost]

Heck I even use a sens randomiser so during a sessions my sens just jumps around so I have to constantly pay attention

[tame cobalt]

Typing this with my ps5 controller

[tame cobalt]

real rush or walmart rush (128p)

[little lagoon]

Real rush

[tame cobalt]

[little lagoon]

128p rush sounds insane

[tame cobalt]

it is insane

gets old tho

[little lagoon]

I bet

[tame cobalt]

if u wanna try it it's a featured mode in portal every now and then

[little lagoon]

Maybe haha

[fervent grotto]

I’m sorry but I can’t stand rush

Just my least favorite gamemode

[dapper river]

Bad players do think alike

[placid echo]

New portal update is kinda cool

[fervent grotto]

They’re a hive mind

[little lagoon]

What are youpointing out?

[placid echo]

The names of the specialists over their head. They're also AI-controlled

[little lagoon]

Oh didn't notice

[fiery dawn]

oh wow that is cool

[placid echo]

It started as a 4 player co-op project which ended up turning into a single player experience that has a randomly generating AI Squad. Of course, I am going to make a separate version for 4 players.

Only problem is that the names of the AI stays the same, but whatever lol. Only so much that I can do :p

[fiery dawn]

I usually use a camo or skin of some sort

Except with the portal vault weapons ofc

[fiery dawn]

Interesting. What is the objective? I’d love to try it out regardless

[placid echo]

Take all enemy objectives, if everyone in the squad goes down you lose

The map starts out with the enemy having every objective

enemy btw is also AI

[wintry sinew]

Nuh uh

[fiery dawn]

Ah cool. How many enemies are there?

I assume a smaller amount but they respawn?

[placid echo]

Like 25 but the respawn timer for them is long

[fiery dawn]

I like that

Be nice if you could make it breakthrough. Is it CQ?

Rush might be pretty cool since it’d be like you’re infiltrating and destroying objectives as a squad

[placid echo]

Right now it's Conquest but the AI just goes through each objective one by one. You can't get AI to follow you

[fiery dawn]

Oh yeah that’s a shame

[placid echo]

At least they move as a squad though

[fiery dawn]

True. Have you tried it in rush yet?

[placid echo]

Sadly there's no editor in Rush. But you can still have AI in your squad, it'll just be the AI guys

[frail sparrow]

I saw an airborne mode once for portal. The opportunities seem amazing

[fiery dawn]

rip

[tame cobalt]

is breakthrough in portal yet

[low timber]

I swear the bolts feel better now in 2.1

[fiery dawn]

nope. dice needs to either add it to portal, or give a server browser for aow

but doing neither is pretty unacceptable imo lol

[tame cobalt]

100%

I mean it should be portal either way. Why the hell isn't it

I've literally not been able to play a single match of breakthrough because my region is small and it's not in server browser

i have probably 500 hours yet no breakthrough matches

[chilly jacinth]

theyre doing you a favor

breakthrough is mid

at best

[tame cobalt]

I'm trying aim lab mobile with my controller now, idk how useful it's gonna be tho cuz there's no aim assist..? and i think the aim acceleration stuff is different

[dapper river]

Yeah no breakthrough in portal, wtf? Do they have custom conquest now or are they "looking into it"? You could in theory make your own custom breakthrough/conquest assault layouts with that. Of course if you modify the rules editor then it's no weekly missions or weapon mastery progress for you!

[formal geyser]

after one year they cant fix this optimization. CPU - 100%, GPU ~ 70%, nice work dice

[shell ermine]

I wish they'd rework all of the maps to be regular Conquest and not Sector Conquest. I really don't like it.

[tame cobalt]

no bro u don't

[chilly jacinth]

well we arent far from 2042

only 20 years until you can experience it

[tame cobalt]

2042 will be fun if you're rich

otherwise probably not so fun

[tame cobalt]

multi flag sectors should grant additional rewards

well, not necessarily all of them, but some

idk

[shell ermine]

Too bad vehicles don't spawn at flags anymore.......

[dapper river]

They do, noob. How dare you bring into question the power of the almighty Tuktuk

[rocky kraken]

weaponized tuk tuk s3

[tame cobalt]

tbh it would've made more sense if the light transport ("in-world") vehicles were call ins instead of tanks n shit

like calling in a quad bike would've been dope

and then have regular spawn mechanics for armored vehicles

but whatever

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/xs6bd7/bug_report_210_p90_vertical_recoil_singleshot_new/ LOL absolutely zero quality checks

[copper fulcrum]

Oh no, anyways.

[errant scarab]

weapons have recoil but it disappears shouldn't continue?

[chilly jacinth]

wow different weapons have higher recoil than others

[shell ermine]

Single shot mode shouldn't climb when tap firing.

[chilly jacinth]

says who

[shell ermine]

The recoil recovery value on the P90 is busted

Every other SMG in the game

[eager spire]

says DICE when making all of the 2042 weapons

[chilly jacinth]

well its not a 2042 weapon

[shell ermine]

Don't be dense

[eager spire]

okay but shouldn't it follow the same rules as the 2042 weapons now that it's been ported to AOW?

that only makes sense to me.

[chilly jacinth]

nah

[eager spire]

why not?

[chilly jacinth]

doesnt have to follow every rule

[eager spire]

why not?

[chilly jacinth]

why

[lone void]

They literally have 2 different behaviour setups for every portal gun so that they can be consistent when used in their own eras or with 2042 weapons

[eager spire]

because DICE claimed that the reason Portal weapons aren't available in AOW immediately is because they have to be reworked to work properly in AOW, I would think that implies making them work properly in AOW and follow all the same rules.

[chilly jacinth]

it seems to be working though

[dapper river]

M60 buffs plz

[eager spire]

yeah but recoil's fucked in single fire as demonstrated

[chilly jacinth]

its climbs a tad

not a big deal

[eager spire]

it climbs substantially more than the PP-29.

[dapper river]

Did they fix the foregrip not mitigating recoil on the M16?

[chilly jacinth]

it sure does

[errant scarab]

bf3 weapons have more recoil and spread is ok but it's just moving some settings, it doesn't justify putting 2 or 3 weapons per week

[shell ermine]

The vault weapons still have substantially more recoil than the 2042 guns on controllers. Usable, but not really viable compared to stuff like the PP and Scar

[copper fulcrum]

Ironically the P90 is one of the better SMGs in the game

[dapper river]

They also have to make sure they work with the main menu animations and match intro animations, and each needs 5 new emblems created for mastery ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[eager spire]

and that's weird cause 2042 guns have less recoil on controller in general

[chilly jacinth]

pp29 and k30 slaps it upside the head

always

[shell ermine]

Iirc it's a flat 30% reduction

[ripe hedge]

why ironically?

[eager spire]

yup

[errant scarab]

Well, I would say that 80% of the weapons have the same reload animation

[dapper river]

Any game developer who includes the vector in their multiplayer shooter is shooting themselves in the foot, it's OP IRL and seems like a balancing nightmare

[shell ermine]

But it definitely doesn't feel like the vault guns were tuned for controllers properly

[late bloom]

long time all

[dapper river]

then you're blind

[eager spire]

the Portal weapons have unique animations by Ripple Effect

Some have similar animations, like the M16, but the P90 and AEK animations are different.

[late bloom]

Hello all the same battlefield game

[dapper river]

Like yeah let me just slap the bolt release on the AK, it's practically the same exact reload animation as the M16, right? 🙄

[eager spire]

I can't imagine misreading my statement that bad but please learn how to read before commenting some dumb shit like this

Iron deficiency

[fiery dawn]

Is it really though? I watched Garand Thumb’s video on it a little while back and they deduced that while it’s really good, it isn’t vastly superior and you can get the same or better performance out of an SBR with more versatility. Don’t ask me I’m fairly ignorant but I’ve heard that the Kriss Vector is a bit overrated from more than just GT’s channel

[formal imp]

Isn’t the recoil on the Kriss Vector supposed to go downwards instead of up

[uncut bay]

no

[fiery dawn]

it’s incredible stable and has basically 0 recoil IRL from what I’ve seen

[uncut bay]

it dampens the recoil by directing it back and down, but the recoil is still upwards if there is any

just a consequence of how we hold guns and how they work

[rocky kraken]

kriss vector just op

irl

[uncut bay]

(unless you have a funky muzzle brake)

[rocky kraken]

so op in game yes

[fiery dawn]

imo in a video game, it should have minimal recoil, low damage, high RPM, high damage drop off at range. doesn’t seem that hard to balance

beaming people at range is the only broken thing about it so just nerf it’s damage range accordingly

[uncut bay]

i'm glad devs include it, it's such a strange and attractive gun, same thing with the glock

[fiery dawn]

oh yah same

[uncut bay]

but yeah not too much of an issue, just need to make sure damage and range make the ttk not too fast

[fiery dawn]

and finally we got an M1911

[silk jasper]

When they fixing the laser sight for aow portal weapons?

[fiery dawn]

oh yah I heard about that

the laser sights on the vault weapons don’t actually increase hip fire accuracy right?

[silk jasper]

most of the attachments dont change any modifiers to the weapon

[shell ermine]

C1 on Renewal vanished

[silk jasper]

the laser sight is also graphically bugged check out jackfrag vid

[rocky kraken]

weve all known that

its because of fov

[dapper river]

yeah laser sights and flashlights have been bugged on weapons i think since the BF3 days. They were tweaked to look fine on default FOV. Just a quirk of frostbite that they never fixed

[arctic grove]

CPU is maxing out at 100% while GPU is at 10%

[fiery dawn]

yeah lol

buddy of mine has a 3080ti and gets less frames than me with my 980ti and 5800x because I play on 1080p and he plays on 4k xD

[tidal hare]

gol sniper is kinda shit

[fiery dawn]

wut

everyone was saying it’s good

[tidal hare]

massive drop

slower velocity

oneshot range is the furthest other than ntw

but still

[dapper river]

Well, resolution is (should be, anyway) a GPU exclusive bottleneck. Things like physics simulation and asset streaming for example are tied to CPU.

[tidal hare]

ntw can cover most engagement range

where sniper gol suffers from launch ntw issue

but without the vehicle damage

it oneshot range is decent, but you need to close the gap

[sweet barn]

MW2 waiting room

[tidal hare]

rn ntw one shots up to around 130m

i dont see why will you use gol over it

[dapper river]

bro that came out in 2009 tf u on about?

[brittle forge]

The NTW’s one shot range is kinda ridiculous ngl

[tidal hare]

oh yeah i said that too

[brittle forge]

It’s really annoying to fight against

[tidal hare]

but reddit said it is fair and balanced and tell me to go fuck myself

so i can feel zero guilt when i am using it

[dapper river]

I can't believe they added the Kraber from apex legends into Battlefield smh

[tidal hare]

because they asked for it

[fiery dawn]

Because Gol rewards higher accuracy. Handles faster so you can kill faster if you’re very accurate and land headshots. Same reason anyone who snipes a lot would choose the SWS or DXR over the NTW

[brittle forge]

Not even the battlefield one snipers were as overpowered as the Ntw. The Sweet spots were like 30-50m, not 130

[tidal hare]

why tho

ntw is one shot anywhere

[mental delta]

Only in Battlefield right ?

[tidal hare]

it is a shotgun but one shots up to 130m

ntw is never a sniper

[fiery dawn]

IKR that was my first thought back when I unlocked it. I mained the Kraber in Titanfall 2

[tidal hare]

it is a massively oversized shotgun

[full burrow]

ntw is the only 1hit body kill tho right?

[tidal hare]

all sniper can 1 body

up to different ranges

[full burrow]

oh

[brittle forge]

Yeah but that’s what makes it so annoying give how crazy it’s range is

[tidal hare]

dxr/sws are basically very close range

gol is about 50-60m

[brittle forge]

I haven’t seen the other snipers one body not gonna lie unless the target was actually damaged already

[tidal hare]

iirc

[dapper river]

Umm titanfall doesn't exist I think u mean the Kraber from Apex Legends, the wildly popular free to play battle royale hero shooter developed by Respawn Entertainment, creators of Call of Duty and.... nothing else

[tidal hare]

ntw is around 130m

[fiery dawn]

Oh you right. Titanfall was that shit knockoff game that ripped off Apex

[full burrow]

I havtn used snipers much but yeah I never had a one shot to the body kill

[fiery dawn]

I cry evertiem

[tidal hare]

because they are like ~10m

[brittle forge]

Waiting for the respawn devs to say Titanfall is their DNA for the 40th time without doing anything for Titanfall in about 5 years

[fiery dawn]

TF3 when

[tidal hare]

never

[brittle forge]

And no, Apex having cutscene tie ins doesn’t count

[dapper river]

When Apex stops being profitable

So, see you in 5-10 years

[fiery dawn]

guess so

[dapper river]

Don't worry, we're getting a singleplayer fps set in the Apex universe

[tidal hare]

lmao

[fiery dawn]

actually?

[dapper river]

Yeah they announced it months ago m8, no official teaser or anything yet tho

[fiery dawn]

I never heard about this wtf lol

TF3 but it’s just a single player campaign lol?

Like how Titanfall 1 was just multiplayer

[errant scarab]

Can't create the alamein 128 players in portal? the map is very big

[tidal hare]

you prolly can

[dapper river]

That would create too much of an uproar, people want to see the Titanfall multiplayer formula iterated upon and updated. I fear that's what they're gonna do though

[fiery dawn]

Yeah I lost faith in respawn a while ago. Same with like every other developer of course. Outside of From Software and indie devs :P

[shell ermine]

Jedi Fallen Order was fantastic

[fiery dawn]

That’s true. I always forget they made that game for some reason

[arctic grove]

I hope the remake KOTOR game will be good or better as Fallen Order

[late bloom]

Wewe by roger

🤣

[dapper river]

Isn't that game dead in the water and the lead writer got fired? F

[onyx vault]

BD-1 is the only important droid in that universe.

[arctic grove]

Oh yeah i forgot about that

[pine roost]

This triggers me

[dapper river]

hire writer
her favorite bioware game isn't even KOTOR
pain

[onyx vault]

I truly hope it was joke...

[pine roost]

I want a titanfall 3 but I know for a fact it will be utterly shat on by respawn who would change it into something atrocious

[pine roost]

Definitely

[fiery dawn]

Bro I’m pretty sure you and I have talked about titanfall before

I could be wrong

[pine roost]

Obviously sarcasm

[storm jolt]

Titanfall 3 is gonna be a hero shooter too

[fiery dawn]

Yeah I was trolling

[fiery dawn]

no pls no

[pine roost]

It is

That’s my biggest fear

[arctic grove]

Battlefield Moment

[dapper river]

Well Titanfall 2 was a good blend of hero shooter and high-movement low-TTK gameplay. The interaction between Pilots and Titans made for some of the most unique and crazy multiplayer shooter moments.

[storm jolt]

no game has combat like titanfall did

[pine roost]

A pilot wasn’t Jimmy McSmith, your local superhero with magical powers. You were yourself, you made no sound, it was just pure concentration that fits with the lore really well

[tidal hare]

i think you mean crazy satchel tossers and titans

[pine roost]

I fancy playing some tomorrow, right after I play the finals

[fiery dawn]

I really need to get the Northstar Client. Been too long since I’ve played TF2

[dapper river]

satchel + cloak users are the sucm of the earth

[tidal hare]

fortunately

i am forever a grapple main

i satchel + soft ball + thunderbolt

or mgl

i hope you like me

[dapper river]

The normal game servers work now too, it's just that if you idle in matchmaking for too long the game freezes then you get kicked back to main menu.

[pine roost]

Last time I played I was able to find games fairly consistently

Once you find yourself in that ‘flow’ of matchmaking it just carries on for hours

[dapper river]

Every time there's a steam sale the player numbers jump like crazy, it's weird. I wish I could still find enjoyment in that game and ride those population waves, but after over 2000 hours I'm all tapped out. I'd say I got my money's worth though

[versed glade]

Been out for a while. Did they fix weapon bloom?

[pine roost]

Must have been away for a long time, I find the overall recoil and bloom to be the best it’s ever been

[versed glade]

Sweet. Glad some good changes are being made. Still not a fan of the specialists though 😦

[fiery dawn]

Yeah tbh I remember it doing that for ages before Northstar client was a thing

[tame cobalt]

it's always weird to see the average gamer view BF as some anti-arcade milsim thing

[dapper river]

If battlefield has any sort of arcadey mechanics, "cod" is immediately mentioned

[tame cobalt]

bf is bad because it imitates new cod games, it should go back to imitating old cod games like the good old days

[dapper river]

I think it's a holdover from the great "COD vs BF" wars of the 7th gen. Bad Company 2 poked fun at MW2, BF3 poked fun at MW3, the communities of both games had shit-flinging contests over COD Ghosts and BF4....

[pine roost]

Or just don’t imitate cod

[versed glade]

Perfectly said.

[tame cobalt]

Agreeing with the satire or actually agreeing?

everyone's favorite bf imitated the cod of the time

[arctic grove]

Both lmao

[versed glade]

Agreeing that it should stop imitating other games. It's too concerned with being something people who don't usually buy the game would like.

[onyx vault]

I'm still confused by the thought that anyone would look at BF and think "milsim".

[arctic grove]

This never gets old. Its my favorite past time

[versed glade]

It was a middle ground. Not milsim and not arcade.

[arctic grove]

If dice tried hard enough it could work. BF has a mod that is based around a milsim.

bf3*

[tame cobalt]

They shouldn't try it at all

[onyx vault]

When was the last time BF even pretended at a command structure? 2142?

[junior hedge]

I had fun playing this past week, first time in about 8mon.

Question: can we no longer search by servers?

[versed glade]

I dont want it to be exact but I would like to feel immersed like I am in UK

[fiery dawn]

If you’re referring to the Project Reality mod for BF2, as well as the newer mod that just came out for BF3, those are community members putting together a project to turn BF into a milsim, which is subjectively not very good, because BF wasn’t designed to be a milsim, and it shouldn’t be played as such. There are way better games out there that are designed literally as a milsim and do a far better job giving you that experience than BF ever could

[tame cobalt]

bf shouldn't try milsim, its niche is the team based arcadey sandbox warfare. squad and arma etc are in the milsim warfare niche which is not battlefield.

Yes it's not entirely arcade and that's also part of what makes it good, but it definitely needs arcadey-ness in certain elements

[fiery dawn]

I think “casual” is a good word for it

[tame cobalt]

There's battlefront on end and squad on the other

And bf in the middle (still leaning toward arcade but not too much)

[fiery dawn]

That being said, people are welcome to play the game how they want to

[tame cobalt]

and arma on the extreme other end

[fiery dawn]

I just think it’s kind of a waste of time and effort to try to transform BF that way when there are far better options lol

[tame cobalt]

yeah, bf should stick to its niche

that's what I'm here for

[lucid warren]

NA players wanna party up

[onyx vault]

It would be hard to defend it as a good use of time, but it isn't our time, so whatever.

But agreed.

What really would make BF distinct from "arcade" in this usage?

[versed glade]

I love how bf2042 protects me from the other teams chat. Makes me feel safe!

[shell ermine]

DICE ruined SWBF2 because they tried to meet in the middle between the arcade gameplay of their first Battlefront and Battlefield

[tame cobalt]

if u played battlefront games, those are basically bf if it went too far into arcade

[onyx vault]

I played Battlefront 1, but jesus, that was a long time ago

[tame cobalt]

the EA one?

or og

[onyx vault]

original

[tame cobalt]

damn

[versed glade]

Battlefront 2s game chat is my favorite. Love hearing about the clankers

[shell ermine]

For example in EA SWBF1 there was no hipfire or movement penalty for accuracy. Gunfights were "dances" between players, very mobile. In EA SWBF2 they added a penalty for hipfire and for moving while shooting so you got slower gunplay where players stop and shoot

[tame cobalt]

[shell ermine]

The former is how the original games were

[versed glade]

[foggy halo]

I love reading walls of texts important stuff, game changing

[shell ermine]

The worst part, the background that soured DICE's attempts at Battlefront is that they refused to add traditional Conquest to the games because they didn't want it to step on Battlefield's toes

[tame cobalt]

devs reading this chat going "yall need hobbies"

[tame cobalt]

and the trash movement of swbf2

can't vault over waist height objects

[onyx vault]

hey man, storm troopers aren't very limber.

[versed glade]

That one clanker can. The one with the knife.

[tame cobalt]

[onyx vault]

Have you ever tried climbing an object.

It's hard.

[tame cobalt]

storm troopers need better training clearly

[onyx vault]

You have to roll your chair out, stand up, prepare mentally

[tame cobalt]

i want a battlefield type conquest game using the lotr IP

less arcadey than battlefront

[onyx vault]

oooph, I don't know who could pull that off.

[tame cobalt]

using oliphants as tanks

seige on Helm's deep

Lord of the Rings: Conquest by Pandemic.

Lived and died

[karmic crow]

mann the last 15 games of my 10 hour trial were all on renewal im dead

[shell ermine]

Class based Conquest (among other modes), very early PS3/360 game

[onyx vault]

wow, it literally says "Battlefront Gameplay"

[tame cobalt]

Chivalry devs i guess. If they got huge budget increase

[versed glade]

LOTR died to a miniseries.

[onyx vault]

I was thinking Mount and Blade, but yeah, probably Chiv
