BF2042
With all the lack of bugs and error at launches
It is certainly one of Dices finished games
Ha fair enough. One of the ones I passed on (other than playing the beta) so I can't evaluate it fully
I'm sure it doesn't linger as well in the legacy due to it's deviation a bit from a typical BF setting, but I respect people enjoyed it
BF4 was a good foundation to build on after all, once it was all polished up
Admittedly I don't have that much time on it, but the time i do have on it, it was really a fun game. I like it a lot, and i felt it was underrated.
Hard-line was just overrated cops vs robbers
@arctic grove before you ask no I can not play tonight
What a job does to a Mf
I feel 2142 got a same rep. It got blasted a as a BF2 reskin, and If it recall BFH had a similar complaint re: BF4
Unfortunately it's now mostly dead on PC, the only two servers that are active are a server i hate the admins of, and a 30hz server with modified damage values. There used to be a decent server running by the BUDz guys, but they couldn't keep it running, unfortunately.
You barely skim the water, your plane is lost
Awesome
sigh
It wasn't entirely a BF4 reskin. BF4 was the foundation, but at that point, it was a good foundation.
i want the MEC theme back from BF2
Hell yeah
BF2 had such a small yet KILLER soundtrack
I was practically crying with the Dragon Valley remaster theme 😂
It brought some unique modes with it
yes....the soundtrack is legendary....
Oh I don't disagree, just saying 2142 and HL had similar raps
I really just want a BF2 reimagined n frostbite built with modern gaming in mind
Yeah it had unique modes. Though honestly, I don't really care much for the unique modes, in my experience they don't tend to play the best. I typically just stick to Conquest.
All of the maps, all expansions and DLC
It was. One of the highest rated if not the highest
Maps were awesome. There was little cover but fog of war essentially made it more viable
tfw lose connection with EA servers with 9 kills left to go for AM-40 T1
the fog of war was probably there because PC's from 2005 would explode if not
Exactly the reason haha, but that (and spready as hell weapons) made the lack of cover less of an issue
heya engie
For you PC people, do you think I should hold off on buying a PC and wait for potential price drops cus of the 40 series release?
Yup I forgot the final map total but between 1 expansion, 2 booster packs, and free.maps in updates it was a lot
it might be worth waiting, yeah
My gosh going from jet flight to VTOL turns the F-35 into a flying flaming pile of ape shit
It doesn't brake, it doesn't rotate, it loses altitude like a mfing brick
Haha yup
And honestly none of the base maps, save for maybe Zatar Wetlands, were stinkers
(sorry Zatar)
BF2s willingness to steer map flow based on the Assault and Double Assault variant of Conquest too made for interesting matches
It gave it that "Frontline breakthrough" feel while staying CQ
And that's how we got great maps like Karkand or Clean Sweep or Sharqi
I'm waiting to see what shakes out on black Friday given my limited budget
omg I completely forgot about black friday, that's a good idea
Everyone on Reddit says it's op lmfao
Every time someone tried to use that shit on me, I do an immelmann turn in my su-57 and melt them with the gun
I turn to VTOL, I don't stop, I just somewhat slow down, I can't brake and I'm losing altitude like crazy, faster than a bladeless helo
I could've gotten it already too
Just decided to knife an unaware guy instead of shoot him
Neither team has an un-cappable HQ
Internet Skill Issue
prices are already dropping, i'd wait
ethernet too
like wtf
Anyway time to hop in a game and get 1 kill
Boy I sure do love when my F-35 explodes in thin air from absolutely nothing
So either team could be forced to a loss if they weren't careful with their objectives
Thanks for the lazy mapping DICE
Im thinking of getting a 3080 or 3090 just to set myself up for a good period of time
It’s back
Everything else is fine
Like I’m still on discord and shit
It’s literally just battlefield
As the image states, router issue can easily effect only 1 thing while the rest runs fine
“Oh you’re trying to get t1? That’s funny”
don't waste money on a 3090 unless you're going to use it for work
I would be, mac starting to piss me off lol
Considering the price of the 4090 is gonna be the same as the 3090, I don't see the point tbh
well that only matters if there are any 4090s in stock lmao
4090 is going to be more even if it is only a few hundred
it also draws a shit ton more power
resale gonna go crazy on that
Isn't the 4090 physically larger than the Xbox Series S?
yes
that too, if you're gonna get a 4090 you basically need to build a new pc because chances are the current one just isn't gonna cut it
you may need a new case for those things
What's the MSRP?
starting at 1599.00
i’m also thinking of switching to PC
So the price of a PS5, an XSX, and a Steam Deck combined?
Doesn't seem like a good value.
ibuypower has a prebuilt rn that im thinking about its an i7 -12700kf and a rtx3080ti for $2097 usd
I mean this is coming from the company that has a CEO that said "declining GPU prices are a thing of the past"
i'm not joking. you can look it up.
Never buy Nvidia
and yet most people buy nvidia
i donno why, it's not like AMD's GPU's have been bad recently as far as i can tell.
it's funny, because he's actually right
they do
Yeah those damn gpu and cpu issues
they exist, not for long
Like can actual people buy those and not youtubers?
Don't even get me started
they clock in at about a 3060 under optimum conditions
it is a paper launch product tldr
6 days until launch?
I think they're just trying to cover their own ass because they tried to sell a bunch of GPU's to cryptobros and then all of that collapsed and they lost a lot of money.
Binary
they aren't, base costs of manufacturing aren't going down
the only thing he's talking about is nvidias profit margins of 50% for cards
Damn that means the retail price ain't going down
Fuck
Shit
Parts be expensive yo
Pc gaming ain't just a hobby anymore
It's a lifestyle
Most hobbies are expensive AF
Fuck
what you think Nvidia are going to lower prices become some nobody gamers said it was overpriced
ofc not they don't care about you or anyone else lol
they will keep increasing
why are you looking for reasons to stuff chat with hot air
It's certainly good water cooler talk deco
Can't deny that
It costs money to make your pc pump out hot air
Yeah


I can just do this cuz it's not the tech channel
What are they gonna do, tell me to stop talking about off topic things here?
They'd be hypocrites that's for certain
Did they buff the Saiga 12's range ?
And by that I mean, did they triple it ?
Please, you're in the wrong channel to talk about this technical stuff, move on to another topic or just go to the "technical channel"
Ha shit, you're good...

At this point they could get 300m kills
Thank you
Filthy casuals
How does this happen
That was like 21 hours ago
Why are you looking up messages that far back
Uh
Everyone who played once is
Dudes writing a book
About what
Yikes
That's a new one
Why do you care
I don't, don't deal with them much tho
But who cares also
Play what you want
Also I don't know you, so don't call me your mate 
Good luck with that
Meaning what
what's the question?
Anywhere but here
Sounds like you're telling me to kill myself
If I was a betting man
You could explain that away if you'd like tho
🙂
Her scatter grenades should just become normal gadgets and the only perk she should have is the wingsuit 😂
I'm a simple guy, I see a scatter grenade, I run away
I havent played since release date. Is it worth giving it another go at the current state?
Yes
100%
Go play
I just don't think scatter grenades suit Sundance tbh
Yeah doesn't really suit
hmm maybe an emp grenade to disorient and disru- oh wait
They should at the very least increase the reload speed of her grenades if they’re only gonna give her one
Didn't she have 2 ?
how loud would the wingsuit be
Yes
She does
its already pretty noticable
She has 2 grenades
But you shouldn't be spamming all her grenade modes
But she can only throw one
I mean
So I don't put much faith in the grenades anyway
Yeah, every map has its strong specialists tho
I feel like with sundance there should be a choice you either go with scatter grenades and you lose the wingsuit or you just have the wingsuit which grants you mobility
feel like that's too big of a tradeoff for no reason
Yeah that's not really good
The wing suit is mobility
But the whole point is infiltration
If anything make a cd between grenade throws and time to use your wing suit in the air again
Hey fren how’s your evening?
Feels like Spiderman sometimes lol
hm? fine.
Are you still poor?
Or did you become rich finally
And if so, can you buy me boins
yeah they ran out of ways to nerf sundance so they just fucking maimed the kit
what a dumbass decision
Not even the only time something like that's happened
They couldn't nerf the K30 in any significant way so they gimped the SMG headshot multiplier.
Please.

if you search my name and then please its likely being used as an insult
like "please seek help"
Mines mostly asking trolls for proof please lol
nvm, most of my please is like "please god no" for game design
got a little excited during that game event
There are photoshop apps on phones though
I’ve seen a pic of OW2 where one character is A-posing and has their gun in their stomach.
That game has working hitboxes though
I work all hit boxes
also probably has more functional mouse input
There's not a box I can't hit
Like honestly aside from server issues OW2 has way less gamebreaking shit happening
I don't think it's great and shouldn't be called a sequel moreso just a f2p live service re-release
Indeed
But still not as buggy as 2042
Bug free doesn't equate to a good game tho
Atleast OW2 remembers where I actually am on screen instead of where I was like 5 minutes ago
I've had this happen with like every conquest game I've played since the "patch"
I will not play overwatch 2, not now, not ever 
It's like your specialist hired a shitty camera crew
I run off and get into a gunfight, dump a whole mag in a guy do no damage because I was apparently standing somewhere else like 30m away dumping my mag into a wall or a hill or something idk
Happens multiple times a game
Been playing it all day today. I love it.
I know you're not supposed to be positive about anything in the gaming space today... But since I haven't had any issues with disconnects, I've just enjoyed the new content.
Too many bad experiences
Can't do it
Overwatch brings out your friends true nature
Comp mode years friends and family apart
I'm very level headed when I play games. I can't remember the last time I tilted.
It's not yourself you need to worry about
That’s good my dearest discord fren 
Oh I fucking see how it is preston
My best friend broke his monitor today because we were getting dominated in a comp game.
Yea see?
BRO WHAT DO TOU MEAN
You know I love you dawg
Your friend should stop playing games that's pathetic haha
These mods are out of control

The Overwatch servers just went down for maintance, and the Overwatch Discord chat went apeshit
was fun to see in real time.
The OW discord is wild in general lol
They have a 5 minute slowmode in there, remember when we had that?
It's gotta be the most spoiled entitled community out of all the games I've played
cough Battlefield
Toss me a link I wana see please
Hell no
Dmed you the link
FUCK
Borderlands DC is even worse than battlefield
Wat, I've been in there for awhile. I've never seen it as bad as it has been here
It's like holy fucking safe space
I don't join official discords for AAA franchises much.
Ohhh, that's what you meant
Honestly, I would rank Battlefield community at #1 at this point. The first few months of the launch of BFV and 2042 were a series of the biggest manchild temper tantrums I've ever seen.
BFV's announcement and launch were funny
They had or have a section where you can display your characters armor/loadout and I said someone did a great job making a tall dwarf
so many people were mad about a woman existing
I was extremely ashamed to be a Battlefield enjoyer during those months.
Apparently that pissed them off enough for a 2 day mute lol
🤝 thanks homie
No it was just that people don't believe in prosthetics
Clearly they wear those over their limbs
One day you’ll see me as your friend one day 
ok
I'll be your friend too ceo
Speaking of AAA discords, seems like the Apex server is down rn
Love me
Women weren't invented until 1969 by Alfred Politics. They can't be in my favourite milsim franchise 😤😤😤
Like the only ones i'm in are this one, and Skate.
One sec, let me put in my love hair
Bro I’m watching the discord for OW it’s a fucking free for all
Oooo, there any news on Skate 4 in dere?
Right 😭 I feel like I'm the only one who was prepared for the maintance which was announced 2 hours ago.
Nothing substantial yet. There was a playtest in August, and that's the latest bit of news about it.
You'd think most people would be used to Tuesday and Thursday maintenence
Given how common it is
But fuck it
It's like if you're gonna be a gamer, expect Tuesday and Thursday to be fucky days
Eh, people are still generally chapped about the server issues on launch. It'll die off eventually
yeah, that among other things.
I want a game that makes me want to take a day off of work for release
Yo I can’t wait for the new Mario bros movie tho
I think the last time was for destiny 2 or witcher 3
You should have seen how it was the moment the servers went down. The chat was moving as fast as a 100k viewer twitch stream.
💀💀💀
The Bastion rework also had me a bit tilted. He's garbage now
10$ says the discord gets dossed next
Yeah i played I’m in the beta wasn’t a fan tbh
I know, they killed my boy
Why did I main him all these years
Dude... he's completely broken now.
Is he?
hes more viable in general, not ONLY for pirate ship or defender
I have no strong opinion about Overwatch 2's reworks, having never been a fan of the game. I've also not really bothered asking my friends who do play Overwatch about it.
ive seen some tier lists say hes top tier for dps though, personally i dont see it
maybe they know more than you do
I just think the like 3 seconds you get the minigun for isn't a warranted nerf by simply letting him move during it.
they buffed his regular mode though
Oh did they? Haven't gotten to play much since launch
im sure some do, and some dont, id have to go through peoples "resume" to determine that though
The fact that he can now move with his turret is an abomination. A decent flank and you'll wipe out half the team before they have a chance to react.
perks of generally being top rated in fps, and overwatch while being on a team as a shotcaller and a short stint as a coach is that it generally puts you above average when it comes to mechanics and balance
He could do that without needing to move though
ill be honest, that clip looks like some bronze players
Not to mention that Bastion's new ult is so easy to get value out of.
Why does overwatch 2 look worse
Yeah, that's usually the case with quick play.
It looks worse? To me it looks about the same.
graphically? its like... 99% the same...
I think it looks good, but sometimes the changed bits of UI look a lil small imo
It's funny though, I was low Masters when I played OW1 2 years ago... and now I ended up in Bronze after my placements lmao. Managed to climb up from Bronze to Gold in one day, but it sucks that I was forced to start that low.
which, considering that, might I ask, what the fuck did the 3 years of development OW2 had go into?
I feel that, I got stuck in iron in Wild Rift, just to go on a 25 game winstreak after.

afaik the highest rank you could get is diamond, they likely start you low on new SR so you have to play more than normal to get your actual rank
Like it doesn't seem like this is 3 years worth of work on improving the original game.
hell overwatch had that system in between seasons too
Yeah, out of the 17 matches I've played today, I won 17 of them.
i was GM for 4 seasons in a row iirc, but i always got placed mid masters
thing that sucks about that is that different ranks play differently, ill never support in a diamond match
supporting in GM is perfectly fine though
Support is really hard to climb with, because you're more reliant on your team.
hence why i dont support in diamond
In Diamond it should be fine. Diamond players are well above average.
sadly with role queue i expect the support climb to suck..
in general, i think diamond players are mechanically good, but dont know how to play as a team
You have to start early so that you queue into games with other closeted grandmaster players.
If you wait too long, you'll end up in actual bronze games.
im unlikely to be GM anymore, nor do i care to play as much as i did to get that rank anymore either
i stopped playing OW comp when decay was introduced
That was ages ago
I think Season 3 was the first season to introduce SR decay.
after i just played for teams and went on to other games
Might have been Season 8, I don't remember anymore.
it could have, i know there was at least a tweak around the time i stopped playing seriously though
Any new weapons coming with the liquidators event? I know AK-74 was in the trailer.
AKS-74u
Looking forward to the event
But nothing official, maybe the M98B that was supposed to come with the AKS-74u and P90 but was swapped to Gol, M1911 and P90
Is there a link to a website or something that has these leaks or datamines?
Or maybe a DMR or a shotgun as those are the only weapon types not having a vault weapon once we get the AKS-74u into a carbine type.
Temporyal on Twitter
@fiery shoal Although if you really want to climb with support, Lucio is really good at that. I one tricked him from gold to masters when I tried to make my support SR equal to my other roles.
And that was through solo queueing
never got into lucio
technically i used to flex till mid masters, thats when i would try to main support
ana main
He's really good support carry hero.
Never got into Ana, so many people have died because I kept near missing them.
lol yea she has that effect xD

the best is when mercy steals a nano boost though
yeaaaaaa, thankfully a mod was involved in being off topic so i think that kind of saved us from getting warned
True
I think that went out the window these days
Since the mw2 beta things ain't been the same here lol
ive been avoiding this chat lately honestly
its the same stupid shit, then i point it out and the other person gets mad and i get warned with them
I don't care if y'all go off topic as long as it's civil

We have to change our attitudes based on the mod in the channel
Duh
Don't get caught
Sundance? Wingsuit, mainly.
The Game? A variety of reasons, really.
reddit? likely because sundance is nonbinary
and distaste for the game is fair, but of course the internet goes overboard
The game in xbox off ? I cant connect in servers .
Sundance being nonbinary is more like a fun fact at this point, most people don't care. Hell, even the developers don't seem to care from what i can tell.
I mean when you only have grimoire cards
Even then, it's not getting me any better at kills
It's a lore detail, which means:
- It doesn't matter
- It doesn't affect gameplay
- It doesn't matter
Y dozer say so many bad words comparing with others specialist
Yeah, i know.
Oh our resident troll is back
Still strikes me as them trying to get brownie points for trying.
Did your better games get boring?
who
Mercury
ah
lolol
cuz he is such a bad boy, thats why
Time to riot

Going off-topic is an inevitability. So long as it isn't drowning out people trying to talk about the channel's purpose it's normally fine.
i agree, but ive been warned under that exact scenario so 🤷
Ye, sometimes it's needed to help get the channel back on track.
I normally just chill in general anyways since my days of debating specialists over classes is over.

we need Private Pyle and Sargeant Lee Ermey Specialists
I'm sad we haven't gotten a counter sight operator yet.
Thought one would come given all the spotting operators we have.
with a doughnut charm
oh yeah
i'm sure that's gonna be really fun for the boat enthusiasts
Seems like a skill issue
No boris skin -11/10
boris mid
Cat ear boris top tier
isn't the only operator skin like a Dozer skin?
dice give me my charm
havent launched the game
no there are others
sundance skin, lis skin, what looks like an angel skin and maybe a rao skin
I got the charm even when I’m not subscribed to the newsletter
bro its just a charm
i want it
literally nobody cares about charms
Beena sec since ive been here
Odd that the Arica Harbor layout is the construction site and not the town.
https://twitter.com/temporyal/status/1574704779091009536?s=20&t=qCWRJ7noJ5GfuOlmEnTu6A
all but top left and bottom right are linked to the event
So I turned off crossplay and there is nobody playing. Everyone’s on pc.
yes
if you turn crossplay off you limit yourself to playing with anyone else on the same platform who has also turned crossplay off
yeah, so why did I buy a PS5 lol
which there are few benefits to and a lot more downsides so most people don’t, and the few who do seem to not grasp that fact and go complain 
Just play bf1
Hm
I am pretty sure crossplay broke the game for consoles
crappy latency and lag all the time
No Boris skin im mad
all i care about
Also why white? we only got 1 snow map 
Walmart Jason
its cause of the event purely
i thought that distant mirage casper skin was for falck for a bit when the player cards were going round
I was looking forward to these, but they are white meaning stick out
not cause of map
yeah they’re obviously not supposed to be snow camo lol
also like the colour of skins actually makes pretty minimal difference generally lol
maybe
that hazardous rao skin reminds of the long guy custome from fall guys every single time lmao
You got your cat ear boris but the ears aren't even in the picture fully
Love it lol
maybe stood against a blank wall you’re going to notice one more easily than another but the moment they’re moving you tend to just spot them anyway
plus various spotting methods, gunfire from them etc
It was the best i could do 
The green camo skins works great in Valparaiso
you could easily just put it down a bit though
Thanks man
i mean yeah if you’re lying in a bush then having green/leafy skins is going to add something but also the eye just spots movement a lot more easily
grey/white mixed. Fits his color beard
you could lie in a bush with basically any skin and you’d be more or less as hard to spot at a distance
Next time use a white skin and hide in a bush.
🤔
BF2042 had one of the best launches in BF history ngl
TDM YEAH!!!! Get some whoooooo!!
when I hit shit with armor peircing now it doesnt show damage
I'm sorry for the necro-reply but you're the only other person I've seen who had this problem. What did you do to fix it?
I disabled Accelerated GPU Scheduling in Windows. Also my plane is about to take off so I probably won't be able to reply further
I'll give it a shot thanks for even responding
Have a safe flight!
Fixed it, thanks again
Free boins when
Through the Battlepass
sometimes battlefield doesn't open from steam it's as if I never hit the play button
is not sufficient 💀
Sshhhhhhh lol
The best use of crawford I found was flanking. Even holding choke points they expect resistance and throw explosives.
missed week 4 cause of school 
Trying out the vcar again damn its op af
Best launch of the decade bf 2042 or cyberpunk 2077
2042
you can still do them
talking about the extra challenge 
i mean both were bad, speaking strictly of launch state, probably cyber was worse
2042
eh
its just one tier
youll be fine
true
can anyone teach how to be a good pilot
Bro it looks like DOOM guy or Quake guy
I really want to be able to put camos on the m16
Skill issue
im so glad i played that at launch and took the week off of work
seeing it fall apart in real time was glorious
so there are only 2 guns from portal playable now?
all i want are the guns from bfbc2
why would you take work off for any game
no there’s like 5
M16, M60, P90, M1911, GOL Magnum
vacation time to use up? not going anywhere so why not 
oh okay ty
it was just in my collection, no unlock screen
ig, made it sound like it was expressly and only for the game, but i mean whatever
damn how did u unlock the portal guns
assignments…
go to your collection, and look for the guns that are locked
look in the collections page where all the guns are, click on the portal guns, look at the unlock requirements
click on said gun and it’ll show the assignments
you can play against bots and finish them off fast..
bots are in hazard zone right
breakthrough -> solo -> stranded
ahh ty guys

they didnt announce when the season ends, they just said season 3 will be around november
so i guess season 2 will end on november 22
i tried to play hazard zone but the lobby never gets full to start a match
hz is dead
I’m the only one not able to get a single full lobby rn? Like I only see 3 servers and none of them have over 5 players
I can’t even load into conquest
how is it dead so fast
i know a few people who play it nonstop, as in its the only mode they play, but they usually always have the same lobbies over and over
its been dead since launch
jesus
they should of learned from the failure of firestorm in bfv
try server browser
that people dont like these modes
hazard zone is co-op like the co-op from bf3 right
I’ve restarted like 5 times
cause i see a lot of relatively full servers
yeah
dont turn crossplay off, youll get nobody
i am 100% sure i saw bf2042 for 20-30bucks before the new updates came in
now its 50 everywhere
it was on sale on steam i believe
i missed it damnit
now i ordered it from amazon but they dont send the code, they deliver it... XD
live?
just streaming the trailer for the event over and over
@hexed mango repost this link pls https://streamable.com/gf0wub

No self promo!!!!
u have been BANNED
im assuming this is a legendary skin or a new scope
Likely
Legendary most likely
for the svk i think
svk? Kind of looks like it has AR-style controls like the DM7
Nah only my family, half my family. Culturally I'm 100% red-blooded American 


Red? THATS THE COMMIE COLOR!!!
ur mum
Red team solider is colorblind 😔
Stars and stripes beats hammer and sickle, look it up!
half family... hmm... family...
Dont let vin Diesel read das
i am two parts conflicting sides of WW2
or one part of one side, one part of another
I believe we call that neutral

nah he just wants to use german guns, cuz they hella fire
Or overwatch style shorts 
Which I mean, we kind of got with Irish with "Exodus". Maybe if this game didn't get shit on so hard at launch we would've gotten more than that one short.
ow2 broken
OverRATED
Is it not still down for maint?
its bacc online
Ah okay
but u gotta play asia server or u will wait years in queue
maintenance? idk, they got ddos’d, tried joining earlier and just got stuck in queue to join game
i played a few yesterday, before getting an error and being booted
ppl just hate what they made of the game now lmao
There was some maintenance today if I'm not mistaken.
made it free2play to smash battlepass and all that in
But ye been a bunch of other issues
I dislike how now you don't earn in-game currency from low priority role queues.
Just gives extra bp XP
ofc they want moneyyyy

all i want is the co-op mode
i dont touch pvp in overwatch anymore since archives event, pve is much more fun in overwatch
jesus christ its almost 5am
probably not for u guys
yeah there was also an update but no fix to the server
but it does look like they’re still doing maintenance rn


The servers are still being hammered in the Americas, I had to play on Asian servers just to get in
Also, the event looks SICK.
Is this event just breakthrough but the attackers have white skins or is their some other tactical thing
No, it's Conquest. The trailer showed one team with them, but both teams will be the same like normal CQ, most likely.
Specifically it's "Tactical Conquest" smaller maps, 8v8 and 16v16 (depending on week), infantry only
Those cosmetics are unlocked through the event and can be used anywhere once unlocked
Question
Why do the attackers get 2 helicopters and 2 condors on Renewal breakthrough
The vehicle balancing on breakthrough is insane
I'm surprised no one pointed out that Dozer's upcoming helmet looks like a Combine Soldier from Half Life 2
What were the infantry only matches in portal mode before? I never played them but were they also for conquest or was it like a team death match?
There was some Infantry focused Conquest and Infantry focused Rush where tanks and air vehicles were gone
But they were 32v32
Jeeps were still used though
So this is just like the portal modes before but they add new characters skins?
Got 3 multi kills but it says the challenge is not complete
Ah I see. Thanks
Sounds like cod. Battlefield always known for its big immersive maps lol
They'll be cool. It's just a shame that these are part of a limited event.
I swear if I shoot another vehicle 6 times and my hits don't register I'm gonna fucking sue
Yeah, but here's the thing, not everyone wants to play on large maps with vehicles all the time. Sometimes you just wanna play something a bit smaller scale, more infantry focused.
This is good for that, and it's good for the game overall.
Battlefield has had smaller modes since Battlefield 2 lol
Wingsuits will be irrelevant
Do they? Lol
A CQB mode isn't bad for Battlefield. I think it's a good option, and they have been more common since BF3
I agree, Conquest is the "gold standard"
says who? i like it
I like the wingsuit
Yeah, CQB modes are good for the game, good for variety.
doesn't mean BF can't have some CQB experiences tho
and as I've said before, it's something DICE did not do a good job with in 2042. Even BF2 had maps like Karkand, Sharqi, etc.
frontlines is the best gamemode
hell Iron Gator
The only bad thing here is that, again, this mode is only going to be around for the time that this event is active. Then it'll likely be gone, or relegated to only being available in Portal.
Wasn't 32v32 small enough? They were infantry only
I mean it seems like it's gonna be a LTM anyway so
Battlefield 2 had variants for 16 players, 32 players and 64 players
Next is gunna be a battlfied version of the gulag 1 Vs 1
yup
🙄
what if dice did 48v48 instead of 64v64
Excuse the shitty quality lol
would that make an appreciable difference, really?
Reminds me of firestorm
i mean it might better balance between small and large with map design
and maybe we wouldnt have overly large maps
Maybe.
This was the 16 player version of Strike at Karkand (which was actually still pretty good)
not necessarily saying it'd be perfect, but maybe better for map design especially
That's more or less what the BF3 console version used too right?
For Karkand
That's Antarctica map is too big. I remember the scale picture said it was 4x bigger than Hamada
cause i feel like they over-designed maps to be large to expect that for 128p, and in reality it didnt work that way
I think? I didn't have BF3 on console lol
yeah i feel like Breakaway and Hourglass specifically are way too large
DICE has a habit of doing that, they overdesigned 64 player maps before.
yeah not saying it'd be perfect again, but just better
I remember it didn't have the other side of the bridge except a tiny bit in Rush, which was sad to not see in CQ
They can't
Nope they don't have any BF4 maps
Not BF4 maps
Most maps have evolution
from bf3, not 4 tho
Plus, I don't think they're focusing on Portal maps right now anyway
BF1942, BC2, BF3
they got enough on their plate with new maps and map reworks
Sadly
Orbital rework hype
Lol
I don't think that's how it works
It probably still requires a bit more porting work
orbital rework best rework yet
Copy and paste likely won't work
They don't even have boats yet to put Pacific Storm in
Criterion handles the portal side no idea why it's taking them long to remake some of the maps. Unless it's more difficult than anticipated.
I thought that was Ripple Effect
Maybe more difficult than anticipated due to the different version of Frostbite.
? Some of the Portal maps ARE in AoW. Exodus Conquest
for portal? ripple
Exodus Conquest is not a permanent mode.
What generation are you from I was spoiled before lol
dice = aow
ripple = portal
eag = portal web
It's one of those modes that gets rotated out.
Yeah sadly
Ripple is likely full in on their singleplayer BF
Guessing they're not doing much Portal stuff now
Ridgeline is working on the singleplayer campaign
again i really wish post-launch EA had dice and ripple work together on bettering AoW specifically, not because I dislike portal, but because it is what needed the most focus
Then wtf is ripple doing haha
who tf knows
Portal deserved it's own game, rather than being grafted onto 2042 like this.
I assumed you did based on your name
this tbh
ik they work together for some cross-gamemode stuff, like vault weapons, but they really need to pour their souls into aow to get this working
Have they confirmed what's the next map rework after orbital?
Yeah they should bring a map remake, but just add it as an AoW map outright.
Like here's Karkand 2042 have fun in AoW
I don't think so?
Free boins
They should have a city map where you get a random earthquake which brings down some building and changes the map
tbh no, mainly because it doesn't make sense for the game. ripple doesn't really have the means themselves to sustain it, especially with how ea wants to focus things
I think for 2042 to be successful in the first place, they should of spent more time working on the main game mode, and not on hz or portal, again not because those modes are necessarily bad, but because aow needed the focus
with ripple working on an entirely separate project, dice would be kinda left to fend for themselves, and the game would decline. (mainly cause i dont think dice itself can support all the updates, without some help from other studios)
I prefer portal
Didn't the team produce gems before all these teams came together
...You know what, fair enough. People don't utilize Portal properly anyway.
Portal is for farming
when it was people who knew how to make games, yes 
All the tools to make interesting modes and all people do is fucking XP farms and "milsim hardcore"
I know
You got to take your hat off to them
and honestly thats even more unfortunate, i think portal has a lot of potential, i think its an amazing concept, i just dont think it worked
indeed
dice did amazing things with swbf2... and yet now 
Modern gaming "people are just afraid of change"
Yeah it's a great concept but this community is not willing to take advantage of the tools they're given.
also who on earth decided to make the portal browser scroll with mouse movement... so fucking annoying
There's also the issue that if someone wants to make a genuine mode, and use AI just to supplement or make some modifications for an asymmetrical experience, your XP gets gimped. No mastery progress, etc.
(note: im not using my middle mouse scroll here)
precisely
there are so many stupid modes that are just for xp farming, nobody makes fun modes
I wanna count the amount of bullshit servers i see in this clip
even just like a "only pistols/some other weapon type" gamemode, or an "only x specialist" mode or smth would be fun.
I wanted to make a BF2 like mode with a sprint meter, but since I'd be using the logic editor. Nope, XP limits
6
Im tired of matchmaking
Like, honestly, I wanna know if it's possible to make the Defuse mode from BF4 in Portal. I think that would be more interesting than 1 hit hardcore or 128 player rush for the 700th time.
i also wish there was more portal modes
like, frontlines, breakthrough, official chainlink, etc
remind me what defuse is, i never really played it
hey
5v5, 2 squads as either attackers or defenders, the objective of the attacking team is to either kill all the defenders, or destroy one of 2 MCOM's with a bomb found near Attacker's spawn. The objective of the defending team is to defend the MCOMs and kill the attackers, once a player dies, they can't respawn till the next round, and they can only be revived once per round.
It's basically Search and Destroy from CoD.
so kinda like rush but only one bomb to blow up the shiz
Yup, but like i said it's more like Search and Destroy.
It's one of those modes that was relatively popular in competitive play.
yep
i also wish there were more map faction servers on portal
the other era shit is massively underused
Oh yeah I'm thinking of obliteration.
basically counter strike
True
That WTF one is kinda funny. Good way to catch your eye
lol
How do you get multikills because blowing up a tank with two people doesn't seem to work or dropping bombs on enemies
There's also the "Meng Xin Jai Ju Lian Xi Chang" one
Multi-Kills is 3 or more
@copper fulcrum oh great I'll never complete that challenge
skill issue
just play breakthru man
as u were typing this i got a 5 man with a scatter grenade
POV: you dont have a skill issue
Just play a vehicle or something it's easy
Game issue my hits don't register half the time I get an the elevator and it puts me under the map but yeah your probably right skill issues
melee kills were harder
yeah it was a pain
melee in this game feels so..... yuck
I did play as a vehicle and got four kills but it didn't register
anyone else?
i managed to get it done in one breakthrough match though with Dozer
Ayyeee dozer good idea
didnt know u could do those with dozer ill do that next time
yeah melee is ass in this game which is fine by me, but when they go and make us do it for battle pass missions.....
dozer is the best way to melee
it has to be 3 or more in rapid successions
Agreed
like before the skulls disappear from your screen
thought you had to get it 3 times in a row on the killfeed
Yeah ik I got four kill like I said did you read it?
maybne thats it idk
Be a man get finishers for the melee challenges
you do, there was to be 3 of the kill messages on the kill log on your screen (the ones in the middle) for it to count
thats how i did it i cant do that two melee bs
if you get one, and then later get 2, it wont
itll also say on your screen "Multikill"
the problem is you lack skill
I wish they gave more challenges, I hate waiting a full week for new ones
i wish we got like 1 or two daily challenges
i will never get tired of the skill issue discourse in here😂
Even that @hexed mango would be nice
lul skill issue
SlingNasty_D I'll be waiting
why are you so sure that it’s the game’s fault?
and how is a 1v1 gonna help you if "the game won't register your shots"
Its all over YouTube of people's shots not registering its been and issue since launch
just keep playing youre bound to run into a tank with 3 ppl
u cant speedrun multikills
Yeah at launch and for a while after maybe. It's a very rare problem now
and I’m sure that’s valid but I don’t know if that’s the sole cause of your problem.
Well it still happens very often for me
I got one multikill I need three more
Two*
Play some Master of arms Breakthrough
are you absolutely sure you’re not just missing shots
I have everything completed except the multikills
do you have any clips of things not registering?
Fuck it ima just go the easy way out and use dozer
use c5
I probably do actually but I'd have to find it
Vehicles can work for multi kills.
ow2 is fixed!
2042 is a hero shooter and ow2 is a hero shooter 




One has battlefield in the name the other does not 😆

@hexed mango get rekt
#BuffTheGolMagnum2022
Haha
ur crazy

Would love it to be 1 shot close range like the sws10 is
rekt
100% @vast cloak
I’d be quick scoping my way to tier 1😆
No it’s not
it's way better for that than the SWS or DXR
???
Unless they nerfed it in the past 2 days, yes it is lol
The velocity on the Gol feels super off
No it has never been lmao
i want a suppresor attachment on it
The GOL is cracked
Gol is like sws but weaker
I unlocked it an hour after the patch went live and did testing
But I've hit more pilot shots with it than the sws
Yes I have like 300 kills with it
Bro ok let me let you in on a little secret
Anyone here on ps4? Is it still horrible
try it again maybe? it's always had a lot longer 1hk upper body range than SWS or DXR
Too many hit markers at close range if it isnt in the head
Up to medium range the Gol does 88dmg. Nothing more nothing less. If anyone has taken 12 or more dmg before you shoot them then it seems like a 1 hit kill at close range
Has always been that way since it dropped
-_-
I'm not stupid
It always kills to the chest in 1 hit out to a lot farther than SWS
Clearly you are if you think it 1hk at full hp at close range
