battlefield-2042

[next onyx]

Ultra hard-core.

[dapper river]

Hardcore servers were only fun for farming lis missile mastery
now though, most gametype owners have nerfed that shit to the ground

[uncut bay]

yeah they're great for lis mastery, but with the ads bug i'm finding it hard to use her

[wide shore]

Any time I’ve ever tried hardcore I just found it to be an ultra sweaty camp fest.

[next onyx]

Last time I played hardcore I stole some gimps AK24 as a bf3 assault and killed the entire lobby

Very smart yes.

[wide shore]

Was it like, 2042 v BF3 or somethin

[next onyx]

Yeah.

But the weirdo had a bunch of specialists banned.

I just sat in some dudes heli when I died and killed the dumbass snipers sitting back.

Was fun.

[royal swan]

I don't really touch portal unless it's an Easter egg hunt or grind server, but even then I haven't touched it in weeks

[dapper river]

[wide shore]

Perfectly described the hardcore experience

[pine roost]

why is it that so many portal modes are just hardcore

[wide shore]

Well, for one. There’s no official hardcore servers

It’s almost guaranteed players

It’s rare actual unique games get played in portal

Which is sad

[royal swan]

Why can't they make an interesting portal experience

[pine roost]

I might go for a long ttk faster movement speed one to see how people react

[dapper river]

some people can't aim well enough to get kills at the default ttk, others (probably most, actually) want to one-hit snipe without having to aim for the head

[royal swan]

Like are they not smart enough to not make another hardcore server

[slate meadow]

Guys which is the best mag for the SFar ?

[wide shore]

Drum

[royal swan]

How about some training server for the specialist

[uncut bay]

some people like shorter ttk, also it makes every gun almost equally viable

[royal swan]

Or hell a waterdown version of search and destroy

[fiery dawn]

Overwatch 2042

[dapper river]

that's awful, it's why arena fps died

The best multiplayer shooter imo is one where you have insane movement and damage potential, but you can also die very quickly. There's only one game I can think of that's done that and done it well, and it's currently facing major developer neglect and will probably be dead for good soon 😢

[fiery dawn]

Like a round-based mode? That would be cool. But would take more work to implement into battlefield since the structuring doesn’t exist at all for it

[royal swan]

Yeah

[fiery dawn]

Which game are you referring to?

[iron haven]

BF 2042

[pine roost]

i prefer longer ttks, or at least those long enough to force you to track

[fiery dawn]

So you prefer longer ttk than what’s normal in 2042? Or is that long enough ttk generally speaking?

[dapper river]

[fiery dawn]

UGHHHH

[dapper river]

||I met the artist for this key art irl lol||

[fiery dawn]

Yeah we’ve talked about TF2 a decent amount here

[fiery dawn]

oh that’s dope

tbh I don’t know if it’ll ever die until it’s dedicated players get old and stop playing games and they don’t pass it on to the youngins or something in its genre comes out and replaces it

[white geyser]

If they develop titanfall 3 but don’t release the same day as other games, like TF2 was release the same day as BF1 almost dooming the game

[dapper river]

It'll die when respawn stops paying for the servers

[pine roost]

well they keep ripping the assets and putting them into apex anyway

[dapper river]

I have no idea what the strategy for T2's release was.
Marketing: "We don't want a repeat of the disappointment that came with Titanfall 1 so we're gonna taper expectations and not market the game as heavily"
Producers: "LOL release it in between two of the biggest shooter giants, the reaction to Infinite warfare was soo poor so maybe we can fill the power vacuum it will leave, what could go wrong?"
||spoiler: everything||

[white geyser]

One time I had to go back playing titanfall 2 because I missed playing the tone titanfall

https://tenor.com/view/tone-titanfall2-rockets-gif-13447446

[pine roost]

tone player detected

[royal swan]

Personally I like monarch

[fiery dawn]

Yeah true

I used to play Tone, Ion, and Papa Scorch depending on the map

Being a Tone player is nothing like being a Ronin player

[uncut bay]

tone was my favorite, then i switched to northstar

both are very fun

[pine roost]

I don't even use titans, pilot gameplay all round

[dapper river]

I usually pick the titan depending on the situation. The problem is, my monarch setup works in almost every situation

[fiery dawn]

Pilot gameplay is a lot more fun I agree

[tame cobalt]

SHEEEEEEESH

[dapper river]

Pilot gameplay is fun but Pilots v Pilots being 8v8 feels like too much, with they went with 5v5 or 6v6

[arctic grove]

@next onyx I love Nyphon

[tame cobalt]

I wanna see a Titanfall game that has at least 1 four-legged mech in the mp

Like instead of being humanoid inspired

[mossy badge]

🔥

[next onyx]

Now kill and develop your aim.

[tame cobalt]

Make it feel like a real BEAST

[dapper river]

they're NOT MECHS
https://www.mechadamashii.com/news/news-titanfalls-mecha-arent-mecha-apparently/

[next onyx]

THEY ARE MECHS.

[royal swan]

Monarch is a jack of all trades master of none

[uncut bay]

they are MECHA

[next onyx]

EVEN A LOCUST WOUD WIN.

[arctic grove]

bro In the time of me and him talking in dms

[tame cobalt]

"our zombies aren't zombies!!! they're uhhh.. runners!! "

[arctic grove]

I’ve already completely repositioned my keyboard and mouse setup

[dapper river]

well except for anti-infantry, she's second to none in that regard

[white geyser]

Ever since they add co-op in titanfall 2, it kept me busy a lot longer

[uncut bay]

lmao

[low timber]

Thats not the MGS4 Mooing robot

[slate meadow]

i just had a relly weird bug my games fov went really low and the sensativity of my mouse went super high i went to menu and changed my fov from 105 to 104 and that sorted it out b ut then the next game it did the same thing but only when i play with mackay

[dapper river]

Frontier defense is fine but I wish they added a wave survival where you hold up anywhere on the map with AI hunting YOU, not hunting a harvester.

[rocky kraken]

Are patch notes out

[next onyx]

It's a light mech from mechwarrior!

35 tonnes, fast as fuck!

Yeah they're out.

[rocky kraken]

Can someone link it

I’m on mobile

[low timber]

Wheres the pilot sitting?

[next onyx]

If you want to a 100 tonne mech the atlas is what you need.

[fiery dawn]

XO16A2 goes BRRRRRRRRRRRR

[next onyx]

See the window in the top middle? That's the cockpit.

[low timber]

Rex is a cool mech

[royal swan]

Monarchs are like the monarchy, Taking from those who are weak and poor. If you reach the yellow bar in a mech, you bet there will be a monarch chasing your ass for a free battery

[tame cobalt]

RIP titanfall

[next onyx]

"Is that unsafe?"
It's as safe as getting core'd.

[lilac dust]

Welp time to abandon my K30 tier 1 grind after tomorrow and work on a different smg

[low timber]

Why could the 2142 mechs T-bag?

[tame cobalt]

just cuz it's balanced now?

[lunar finch]

Average mackay main

[next onyx]

Yeah I wonder why a mech would do that.

[lilac dust]

I only focus tier 1ing the meta. Not interested in being at a large disavantage when I need to get 1200 kills

[arctic grove]

dude

[next onyx]

Except for cover.

[lunar finch]

Dont worry guys im not like other mackay mains i abuse the avancy instead

[hallow sierra]

same

[tame cobalt]

[arctic grove]

EWWWWW

[worthy elbow]

Skill issue

[next onyx]

Average Mackay enjoyer.

[arctic grove]

in my T1 grind

I’ve slowly been becoming one…

[lunar finch]

T1 avancy 😪

[next onyx]

@low timber I get different franchises but it's really cool looking at the 2142 mech versus mechwarrior mechs.

[tame cobalt]

So pbx, m5, sfar, do u have t1 for them

[shell ermine]

Imo none of the other specialists are worth using due to their slow aim movement speed.

[low timber]

So, the event, i pt needs ribbons for unlocks? Some event specific ribbons or the old ones?

[arctic grove]

meh

I’m still a Lis main

[next onyx]

Ribbon like combat ribbon.

[arctic grove]

Mackay is fun though

[lilac dust]

Sfar and m5 I did last season. Was probably gonna work on pbx after tomorrow since I hear it's pretty solid

[lunar finch]

Exactly, whenever i play someone else i feel so slow and its just not fun

[tame cobalt]

ye it is

[fiery dawn]

What mastery are you at on Mackay now?

[arctic grove]

u lame

[shell ermine]

Strafing is incredibly important to my aiming style, so anyone but MacKay hurts my accuracy

[cosmic sequoia]

more attack choppers

[arctic grove]

I’m on the grind to T1ing every gun :))

(Kidding I love u Logan)

[cosmic sequoia]

my god I just realized all the "S-XX" was peoples ranks... my god how cringey do you have to be to put your rank in your discord name lol

[dapper river]

mad?

[next onyx]

Let people revel in their rank.

[lilac dust]

Ok. I'll let you off the hook then 😎

[arctic grove]

How is that cringe?

it’s just people putting their tank

Rank

[uncut bay]

it's kinda cringe

[slate meadow]

Ffs now ads is bugging out aswell it was fine before th patch

[arctic grove]

ykw

[fiery dawn]

who asked you again?

[next onyx]

@arctic grove "Nah! Can't be proud of your rank other wise you're cringe!"

[fiery dawn]

DAMN! I just hit mastery 90 but I switch around between characters a whole lot

[arctic grove]

FR!

[hallow sierra]

i want to get spawn beacon t1

[tame cobalt]

[shell ermine]

Ngl it is kinda weird. Don't see it with any other game (at least none that I follow)

[next onyx]

Eh it's whatever.

[uncut bay]

[prestige 7]

[fiery dawn]

you guys caring about it is more weird than anyone putting their level in their name tbh

[uncut bay]

hmmm perhaps

[lunar finch]

Skill issue

[arctic grove]

Guess what

[fiery dawn]

not picking a fight or anything :P

[arctic grove]

We have an emoji for that now!

[hallow sierra]

anyone get S1000 yet

[arctic grove]

[arctic grove]

No but a streamer hit S700 recently

[fiery dawn]

There are people yes. They hard abused xp farming in portal back when it was OP though lol

[shell ermine]

You got a bumper sticker on your car "My BF2042 character is S1000!"?

[cosmic sequoia]

if you aren't changing your discord name to the change you want to see, I can't fw you

[worthy elbow]

Average discord user ^^

[next onyx]

I got a rank 500 shirt because I was the first rank 500 in Oceania.

[fiery dawn]

what does this even mean lol

[wide shore]

[arctic grove]

Can I see it

[pine roost]

he means like my username

[next onyx]

I'll show later.

[fiery dawn]

ohhh gotcha

[next onyx]

I need to crash soon.

[cosmic sequoia]

way.exe is crashing

[arctic grove]

Yes you do way

Isn’t it like

5 am there

[warped current]

Tell me this clown is in here https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/y0lfnk/desperate_jet_boi_tries_and_fails_a_tbone

[fiery dawn]

how many time zones in australia?

[cosmic sequoia]

isn't it 1

[shell ermine]

Just one, the danger zone.

[cosmic sequoia]

lmaooooo

[lunar finch]

Omg yes yes yes

I feel like it should be a sticker... wait

[fiery dawn]

and a sticker

[arctic grove]

lmao we even have a sticker now too

[fiery dawn]

lol

[lunar finch]

Yessssss

[fiery dawn]

Thanks to Way

[lunar finch]

Ily Way

[arctic grove]

I love way too

[next onyx]

It was originally named cancer but that's because I called the file that.

[lunar finch]

Lmao

[next onyx]

Then I fixed it up.

[lunar finch]

Can we get a cope sticker too?

[arctic grove]

Way probably didn’t even wanna add the skill issue stuff LOL

[next onyx]

When I'm in a better state I'll think it through.

Just don't need things to further aggravate users.

[lunar finch]

This sticker will be a gift and a curse

[fiery dawn]

yeah but when even Alex was asking for it..

[next onyx]

That's why I was against doing this in the first place.

If it turns out to be abused to taunt users instead of jokes between friends I'll have to look into it.

I hope that's understood.

[lunar finch]

[shell ermine]

Pro tip: ||it's always used to taunt||

[fiery dawn]

tbh Way you could’ve told Alex “I’ll let you weapon design, you let me moderate” THAT woulda been gigachad 😜

[lunar finch]

Shhhhhhh

[cosmic sequoia]

then you remember hes just a lowly discord mod

[drowsy shuttle]

i guess the fix for sundance grenades did not make this update... really hope its in the 2.2

[hallow sierra]

what fixes

[lunar finch]

Whats wrong with her nades?

[fiery dawn]

battlefield discord mod is a respected position of power 😤

[uncut bay]

everything

[drowsy shuttle]

sometimes you throw the frag and its the anti-armor... and vice versa

[uncut bay]

got the boris treatment

[lunar finch]

Ah i never play sundance so

[fiery dawn]

thought they fixed the visual bugs with the smart nades last patch

[hallow sierra]

oh yea dat happens tho it was me misclicking the button twice

[uncut bay]

scatters are ok, aa still tracks random stuff, emp is still gone, and there's still only one nade to use

several issues

[hallow sierra]

getting her t1 is already a pain

[fiery dawn]

they decreased the cooldown on it tho I think

[drowsy shuttle]

they did

[tardy tree]

that was wild

[fiery dawn]

yeah so it doesn’t feel too bad that you can only charge up 1 now

[uncut bay]

i'd appreciate that if they didn't make her near useless

[hallow sierra]

and her smart nade doesnt really do anything

[uncut bay]

at least give back emp

just nerfed and nerfed and nerfd

[fiery dawn]

yeah

[rocky kraken]

Naw

Remove sundance

🙂

[fiery dawn]

[rocky kraken]

And lid

Lis

[hallow sierra]

yea give me something to at least make it easier for her t1

[fiery dawn]

[hallow sierra]

what lis do

[drowsy shuttle]

ahahah delicious

[rocky kraken]

Lis is fucking stupid

Guided missile really

Like wtf

[placid echo]

Those exist

[warped current]

I have so many clips of jets eating dirt..

[fiery dawn]

@arctic grove

[rocky kraken]

I don’t care it’s broken against land vehicles

[next onyx]

I'd reduce the kill count for sundances tier 1. Make assists count.

Make it easier for their tier 1.

[rocky kraken]

Spawn a tank and get killed by 10 lis rockets cross map

[still vault]

Lis is underpowered imo. Mostly you die while in a rocket and sometimes you get to tickle vehicles (if you hit them).

[rocky kraken]

She is broken

[placid echo]

It really doesn't do much against land vehicles.

[rocky kraken]

I get bikes

[next onyx]

I wouldn't really say lis is underpowered honestly. Tanking and dealing with that shit.

[rocky kraken]

Nuked

[hallow sierra]

aint the wildcat could tank an attack heli in less den 10 hits

[drowsy shuttle]

wanna know the funny part.. it took me months to get sundance to t1 (to be fair i took a break of 3 or 4 months of the game until 4.0 update) and i don't even use her t1 skin... lol

[lunar finch]

Yeah shes not the best

[fiery dawn]

Lis doesn’t need to be more powerful, her mastery progression needs adjusted

Vehicle assists should be counted

[next onyx]

Her passive and launcher make her too easy to use against land vehicles. The culminative damage ruins tankers.

[rocky kraken]

That’s the problem

Tanks suck

Even more

[hallow sierra]

u wasting her while i her having to suffer

[fiery dawn]

and her requirement can be raised to account for vehicle assists being easier to get

[uncut bay]

the solution is to fix land vehicles, not remove lis

[drowsy shuttle]

i agree... thats why i never play with her

[rocky kraken]

I mean

[next onyx]

If tanks were more responsive so I could fake out her rockets that'd be nice yes?

But instead tanks are a hunk of shit.

[rocky kraken]

Tanks will never be good

So

[shell ermine]

Imagine thinking anti-armor isn't already stupidly OP in 2042

[still vault]

While it doesn't fix her it does make her T1 possible

[fiery dawn]

fair

[rocky kraken]

C5 nerf when

[still vault]

Boris is worse than Lis though.

[drowsy shuttle]

i just realize i don't like t1 skins for any specialists or even weapons... (but i still get t1 for all the weapons tho.. just for the sake of doing it)

[fiery dawn]

she’s hard to balance because if you make her useful as a solo, she becomes unbearable to deal with if multiple Lis’ players are working together

[uncut bay]

that's the main reason i stopped going for it tbh, i like the stormtrooper skin lmao

[fiery dawn]

true that

[hallow sierra]

how could u nerf c5 anyway

[next onyx]

Reduce its throw range.

[rocky kraken]

Less range

[next onyx]

That's all you need to do.

[rocky kraken]

Fucking stupid range

[shell ermine]

Lis is already unbearable when you've got multiples of them focusing on one tank. You can't even escape behind a hill or something

[next onyx]

Keep it's power keep its spawn capacity.

[hallow sierra]

well its best den doing nth

[rocky kraken]

C5 is all I die to

Sundance comes cross map

[next onyx]

Oh yeah.

[rocky kraken]

Yeets c5

And I’m dead

[next onyx]

Did you know the c rams aps disregards mines.

[shell ermine]

Make it so you need 5 C5 to kill a tank, 4 to kill a Wildcat.

Limit the carry amount to 3.

[next onyx]

I'll repeat.

[drowsy shuttle]

boris is probably the most useless specialist right now... urgently needs a buff

[next onyx]

You can drive through mines with an aps on.

[rocky kraken]

Wait

What

[next onyx]

Yeah no c5 needs to stay threatening against tanks.

[rocky kraken]

Erm

[next onyx]

You heard me.

[rocky kraken]

Oof

[next onyx]

Mines will explode yes.

But.

No damage.

[rocky kraken]

Ha

Tanks need apps

Apps

Aps

[next onyx]

You ok..

[lunar finch]

Idk itd be nice to see him good but at the same time hes the kinda character where if he was good he would be the most annoying fucking character to play against

[shell ermine]

A single soldier should not be able to take out a MBT alone.

[next onyx]

They should if they get the jump.

[rocky kraken]

Considering there are 64p per gram yeah

[next onyx]

That's why c5 and mines exist.

[rocky kraken]

Team

[arctic grove]

I’m gonna attack you

[rocky kraken]

Lis bad

I prefer paik

I said it

[fiery dawn]

😂👌

[pine roost]

Me when bf4

[next onyx]

Fight each other in game jeez.

[rocky kraken]

I’m level 2

Fight me

[next onyx]

Abuse the PBX.

[hallow sierra]

i legit havent been using paik since her nerf

[next onyx]

With close combat.

[hallow sierra]

i already did

[rocky kraken]

So

[arctic grove]

Literally level 2?

[shell ermine]

Mines are different because they are fixed emplacement weapons that can be seen easily. Having a single soldier fly down and dump C5 on a tank isn't the same.

[hallow sierra]

and get it t1

[rocky kraken]

Yes

[next onyx]

Keep abusing the PBX.

[arctic grove]

Shotguns are shit in this game lmao

[rocky kraken]

I logged in and saw lis and logge CB out

[next onyx]

You can play aggressively with mines.

Just grapple on top and place mine.

Isn't hard.

[shell ermine]

BFV a soldier couldn't take out a tank with their spawn allotment of dynamite

[arctic grove]

2 shots point blank to drop a guy

[rocky kraken]

12m is good

[drowsy shuttle]

totally agree... i think its the specialist where making a balance is going to be a pain and they don't know how to do it... cause just buff it a bit might making it OP...

[rocky kraken]

The other one sucks

[fiery dawn]

you can put mines on top of tanks?

[hallow sierra]

after i get other weapons t1

[next onyx]

They could on mediums and below.

[hallow sierra]

12m is stupid

[next onyx]

Yes rebel and they do a lot of damage.

[shell ermine]

Mediums, no.

[fiery dawn]

good to know

[lunar finch]

Yeah, any sort of AI controlled turret in fps is pain

[next onyx]

TNT collectively does 64. A piat up the ass does 50.

To the side piat does 34.

[hallow sierra]

spam it and it becomes point and click simulator

[next onyx]

Or something.

[lunar finch]

I think the solution is to just delete boris

[next onyx]

Just a lot of damage.

It was possible.

[arctic grove]

Paik is overrated

Sure you get literal ESP

[fiery dawn]

12m is very stupid yes

[drowsy shuttle]

only game that works perfectly is Teamfortess 2

[arctic grove]

But it’s not very hard to kill you Paik mains

They already are

[lunar finch]

L

[shell ermine]

At least not the Sherman and Type 97.

[arctic grove]

and L opinion

Specialists are more fun

Guys I think I've just Ascended

[next onyx]

Sherman and the type 97 share similar armour.

[lunar finch]

^

[arctic grove]

I have found the new Bf2042 meta

[surreal portal]

I keep seeing this guy called Sandiego in all of my lobbies 😐

[next onyx]

Medium armour class the damage/health is all the same.

[arctic grove]

Put your turret on your jet

Go into VTOL mode

Boom

[surreal portal]

Oh no 64 v 64 rush on Stranded

[arctic grove]

No way that works

[next onyx]

Vehicles can't go on top of vehicles.

[shell ermine]

I'm talking about the dynamite alone, not also spawning with a rocket and anti tank grenade since 2042 limits you to one gadget

[arctic grove]

Mon meta

[lunar finch]

I kept getting FocusBF in my lobbies

[arctic grove]

Only thing I dislike about specialists

Is the fact that

Tres mal tres mal

Everyone can have stingers

other than that tho specialists better

[surreal portal]

Oof is he insane? Cus this sandiego guy is nuts

[next onyx]

Well you weren't really specific. I made an example on bf5. Versus this game. At is limited.

[shell ermine]

BFV main tank cannons were more powerful against infantry and had better low angles than the 2042 MBTs

[lunar finch]

Yeah he has like a 8kd

[next onyx]

You can't exactly carry a dumb fire launcher and c4.

[lunar finch]

Yeah the spam is a lil annoying but other than that i like specialist

[shell ermine]

They also had anti-infantry gadgets like the S-Mine launcher and stuff like zimmerit paste.

[arctic grove]

I agree

[hallow sierra]

i may at least get beacon t2 before the class system gets add

[drowsy shuttle]

i think the fact weapons are not limited to specialists in 3.2 update when they bring the classes might be a mistake... but we'll see how it works out

[shell ermine]

2042 MBTs are incredibly weak.

[lunar finch]

I found old bf classes just annoying tbh

[next onyx]

They're weak because they have crap accel and turret rotation.

[arctic grove]

yeahh having free will is honestly so much better

[next onyx]

They fix that. They'll be good and know what needs to be improved.

[lunar finch]

Yeah like i wanna play bf1 but its so annoying having to use medic guns to heal myself. I wanna use assualt weapons

[next onyx]

I liked locked weapons but considering the state this game was released in I don't really give a shit.

[arctic grove]

Just let us customise 4 separate classes like in BFV only with decent cosmetics

2 gadget slots restricted on a class basis done

Specialists just don't work - I appreciate a lot of you like the versatility, but classes make the game flow so much better

[next onyx]

With locked weapons you can actually balance the classes around it.

And make interesting combo's.

[arctic grove]

meh

[drowsy shuttle]

exactly

[honest cape]

cant even play 2042 cuz i need check states wtf

[arctic grove]

specialists are more fun

[next onyx]

Free form weapons though I don't give a shit about.

[arctic grove]

Specialists are only in the game because they copied CoD and Apex

[hearty flame]

bf fans used to cry about bf becoming more codlike and here we are asking for cods class structure (aka none)

[drowsy shuttle]

pretty much

[hallow sierra]

i wonder if more ppl would start using armor when class system comes out

[shell ermine]

2042 MBTs are weak because everyone and their mother can run anti-armor weapons all of the time and there are no countermeasures the tank can use to defend itself.

[arctic grove]

nah

I’ve enjoyed specialists from launch

[arctic grove]

Specialists/unrestricted gadgets = impossible to balance battlefield game

[hallow sierra]

me personality i dont care

[next onyx]

Everyone running at is no different than people selectively choosing to play assault to check tanks.

Yes. Consistency would be nice.

[fiery dawn]

Except that there’s still a need for people to play medics/supports and other classes.

[next onyx]

However I don't really think the at portion matters much.

Rao with stinger is badly balanced though.

[fiery dawn]

But when you can be a medic or any other class type for that matter and run anti-tank weapons, it makes MBTs unplayable

[next onyx]

That's the one part that's a problem.

[arctic grove]

The whole point in classes was to have roles in gameplay that contribute to teamwork

Specialists cater only to the individual player for the most part

[next onyx]

I guess so.

[arctic grove]

People only throw down health crates for themselves, unless they have a challenge on

[shell ermine]

The only way to survive an entire round in a MBT to to stay far back from the fighting, play mostly in third person, and hope to the gods that you don't catch the attention of a helo

[lunar finch]

Fine with me, i just frag with mackay and c5 and its a blast. Keep specialist

[next onyx]

Play aggro. Get perfect game in BT.

[placid echo]

Lis is still fun tho

[next onyx]

In tonk.

Perfect tonk BT round.

[fiery dawn]

At this point it’s not 2042 without the specialists so they shouldn’t remove them. Some class structure will be nice come S3 though

[next onyx]

Who's the superior tonk commander here.

Tonk honk bonk.

[arctic grove]

Im not saying remove them from 2042, its too late for that - classify them like they are

Next game go back to classes, and work specialists in on a cosmetic basis

[fiery dawn]

Way you need sleep

[next onyx]

I need more than just sleep at this state I'm in lol.

[rocky kraken]

no he doesnt

[lunar finch]

I hope bf doesn't downgrade from 2042.

2042 is the most fun ive had in a bf tbh

[fiery dawn]

I like this

[fiery dawn]

I feel that on a spiritual level

[hearty flame]

mood

[rocky kraken]

pf51 sucks now

wtf

[fiery dawn]

good

it was performing like a primary smg

[next onyx]

7 hit to kill.

It's sad.

6 hit kill would of been fair.

It was over performing before.

[lunar finch]

They nerfed it?

[arctic grove]

Yes

It’s kinda ass now

[lunar finch]

Back to the m44 ig

[solid imp]

It’s kinda ass balanced now

[arctic grove]

[tame cobalt]

ye

sidearms seem kinda supposed to be a bit ass in this game

[fiery dawn]

Oh well if it actually got nerfed THAT hard then that’s a bit much

[fiery dawn]

Idk. G57 has always been great. M44 is high risk/high reward. The MP28 is a bit meh but it’s very stable

[tame cobalt]

so if pf51 is ass now it's finally balanced.. ur not supposed to be able to use a sidearm as a primary... it's a last resort

[fiery dawn]

PF51 was op as fuck

[rocky kraken]

now it sucks

i guess

[fiery shoal]

nooooo

i didnt t1 it

[rocky kraken]

i didnt either

it got nerfed to the ground

[fiery shoal]

it definitely didnt perform like a primary, but i guess it might have been a tiny bit TOO good for a secondary

[rocky kraken]

well

[vague falcon]

Can’t wait to get the new skins tomorrow

[rocky kraken]

now every other one is better

[lunar finch]

The lack of fear i have against dozers... the ego chall is insane

[vague falcon]

When does the even start?

[upbeat sluice]

why did they nerf the mp9 what a joke

Wasn't even that good in the first place

[solid imp]

MP9 was incredibly good wym

[rocky kraken]

mp9 was good

[upbeat sluice]

It wasn't OP in the slightest

[tame cobalt]

[vague falcon]

Mp9 really good

[fiery shoal]

mp9 is my best performing weapon in the game...

[solid imp]

MP9 was k30 little brother from the OP family

[chilly jacinth]

Small ego then

[lunar finch]

They nerfed the mp9 too

[chilly jacinth]

since you're an avancys user

[upbeat sluice]

Meanwhile they left the sfar untouched lol

[chilly jacinth]

big cringe

[lunar finch]

Avancy peak

[vague falcon]

Plz Buff ntw 50 projectile

[drowsy shuttle]

sfar is alright...

[tame cobalt]

headshotting with m44 is amazing

[chilly jacinth]

Just turn off brain and kill the entire lobby

[shell ermine]

Scar is only really good at long ranges. The M5A3 and AM40 vastly outperform it at close range

The guns they nerfed were too good at everything

[honest cape]

wtf how is everybody playing 2042 when i cant wtf?

[lunar finch]

The avancy gets nerfed too tomorrow

Making this last

My final day of terror

[chilly jacinth]

it'll still be really good

[solid imp]

Which is fine but right now it's stupid good

[tame cobalt]

shotgun + m44 = SHEEEEEEESH

[lunar finch]

As long as they dont touch the movement speed

[vague falcon]

So what is getting nerf tomorrow?

[tame cobalt]

Avancys, k30, mp9

[vague falcon]

K30?bruh

Alright time to use P90

[tame cobalt]

[drowsy shuttle]

i got it to t1 last week, cause i knew the nerf was coming.. (altough i thought was in 2.2 update)

[tame cobalt]

Everyone been sleeping on mp9 and now its glory days are over... Sad

[lunar finch]

I had it t1'd like the second week of the bp

[pine roost]

It still shoots bullets

It’s fine

[drowsy shuttle]

pbx is going to be the go-to smg

[tame cobalt]

ye pbx nerf next

oof

feel like they gonna nerf too much

[drowsy shuttle]

yeah well, i basically play only on tuesdays nowadays

[copper fulcrum]

Chewsdays

[tame cobalt]

like now some guns are getting more random bullet deviation which everyone dislikes

[fading wharf]

i hope we get the m1 granat vaulted

[drowsy shuttle]

but i still think the m5 with the close quarters mag still slaps

[solid imp]

It does. CQ, hrec control brake and lwg is amazing

Arcom

[lunar finch]

Thank god, i knew my aim wasnt that bad lmao

[fading wharf]

STG-44

[drowsy shuttle]

i would swear that also happens on PC lol

[fading wharf]

did they fix it now or will??

[nova mirage]

Will 2042 be coming to EA play in November? I don't know how long it usually takes for games to come.

[lunar finch]

Tomorrow

[fading wharf]

ty

[tame cobalt]

I wish balancing was easier... I just wanna have proper balance across the board without constant meta changes

[drowsy shuttle]

yeah what happens to Origin? they will shut down? when? i have the game on steam, but i will need to download the new app?

[shell ermine]

I typically tap fire but I noticed that every time I let my burst go too long I'd start doing less damage.

[fading wharf]

i use ea app its better

u can start ur games there aswell

origin will become ea app

[tame cobalt]

and i just hope with these nerfs the guns will still feel enjoyable...

[drowsy shuttle]

i prefer steam... i just have origin because the game makes me to have it, otherwise don't launch... but with the new app i dunno how it will work

[solid imp]

Realistically, they're applying the same logic to weapon balance that everybody's asking for with how the class system will balance out the specialists. You want CQ? Then you want an SMG, shotgun, or fast AR. You want mid-range then you want to slow AR or a DMR and SMGs start to fall out of having effect. Etc

[still vault]

I would imagine that Steam will get updated with the new client somehow. Probably more on that later once the Steam integration of Origin is being handled. For now we can just use Origin.

[drowsy shuttle]

alright, cool

[fading wharf]

can u even update battlefield on steam?

[drowsy shuttle]

ofc...

[arctic grove]

2042s been on EA play

[shell ermine]

Usually the word nerf is enough to scare the meta-zombies to move on to another gun, so I hope it just causes a reduction in the amount of Avankys and K30s I see

[arctic grove]

it’s how I play it LOL

[drowsy shuttle]

it will depends if the nerfs actually will be noticeable or meaningless

[next onyx]

The k30 isn't even meta lol.

It's a shit gun.

Genuinely cringe.

Just abuse the PBX.

For all its worth.

[arctic grove]

Tbh

The k30 is sleeper af

[next onyx]

I abuse meta but I'm not so blind to know what needs proper adjustment lol.

PBX was the sleeper.

And people still sleep on it.

[arctic grove]

Nah man I never slept on it

[low timber]

Already have it on T1

[arctic grove]

I knew that babe was op

[low timber]

So no need to use the PBX

[next onyx]

Yeah I never slept on the PBX too.

Abuse it more marse.

[low timber]

No

[next onyx]

Oh yeah do you have t1 p90?

...than again what question is that.

[low timber]

No, like I said, I’ve been concentrating on the DXR-1 for the time being

As I need less than 200 kills with it now to T1 it

[arctic grove]

You got this marse

[drowsy shuttle]

im T1 the gol... i need more 100 kills or something

[surreal portal]

Bro I just found a glitch, if you get into a M5C Bolte on Manifest on Rush you get behind the enemies line so you can just kill them all 😂

[low timber]

After that I might finish the Avancys, and after that ether the AM40 or SWS-10

[arctic grove]

Not a glitch

Just the way the map is worked

[surreal portal]

It’s a game theory

[drowsy shuttle]

im still waiting for them to fix the magazines of the am40 to get it to t1

magazine size

[lunar finch]

I t1d the am40 when it was broken. I didnt even know the gun was bad😭

[low timber]

Also need to use the VCAR again, as the last patch seems like it has less spread?

[chilly nimbus]

I’m still just trying to figure out how to not get 1 frame death’d every 5 seconds

[drowsy shuttle]

i think only the magazine size is broken... i think the standard mag is 20 bullets still when should be 30

[chilly nimbus]

probably this tbh

not even a meme, I just suck

[solid imp]

Haha also T1 the AM40 honestly it's never felt that bad to me and only got better after they fixed the SMG ammo thing

[lunar finch]

[low timber]

As last time I used the VCAR the bullets couldn’t even hit at an enemy 20-30m away, but after last patch in the aim trainer I’ve hit (stationary) targets consistently past 50m.

[lunar finch]

Imagine how busted the Avancy would really be if there was suppressing fire

[solid imp]

I want suppression so badly. Unironic.

[lunar finch]

Same

[calm bison]

Why tho

It was better in BFV

[drowsy shuttle]

yeah, i used the vcar a bit couple of weeks ago, and felt better... i actually thought if they did a silent buff on it... was slapping people hard with it

[lunar finch]

If we had suppressing fire i could win gunfights like this.

[drowsy shuttle]

i just want a suppressor for the GOL... then im set

[chilly nimbus]

wait I can level up the guns in the offline conquest mode?

[solid imp]

It would be one quick way to help balance out the issue of everyone being able to attack armor. Suppressed? It's not so easy to pull out that recoilless. Depending on how they did it, Liz would be less effective, Rao's hack could take longer, etc

[lunar finch]

Yes and no

[drowsy shuttle]

only to tier 3

or 4

[pine roost]

suppression is the worst mechanic i've ever seen in any game

[drowsy shuttle]

but if for attachements yes, you can use the solo mode

[drowsy shuttle]

why?

[solid imp]

Nooo it was good. You were penalized for moving like an idiot and not thinking with an ounce of tactics

[pine roost]

because someone misses you, you for some reason lose accuracy. That makes no sense

[lunar finch]

I used to hate it but the more i play 2042 i see why its ther

[arctic grove]

Skill issue

[solid imp]

Well yeah. Bullets are ricocheting off everything around

[pine roost]

that guy simply had better aim, the fact that YOU missed shouldn't determine whether he should

[solid imp]

It's a bit backwards way of looking at it though... It's not the fact that they missed. It's that they were really really close.

[pine roost]

now VISUAL suppression, that's bearable. But when it affects accuracy is where I draw the line

they missed

and you get punished for it

[fiery dawn]

it makes some sense for LMGs to have a suppression mechanic, but they’d need to handle way slower to make that balanced

[solid imp]

And if somebody misses you by an inch, I guarantee you're not pulling the trigger with perfect accuracy

[fiery dawn]

visual suppression could be interesting but again, for LMGs only

[chilly nimbus]

I always thought of it as your soldier getting scared shitless that bullets are landing near them so they can’t focus as well on the target

[solid imp]

This

[pine roost]

it isn't meant to be realistic

it's meant to be a GAME

[chilly nimbus]

I thankfully have never been shot at irl so take what I say with a grain of salt

[pine roost]

and something like that detracts from the gameplay

[solid imp]

Yes, but we shouldn't confuse the words realistic with immersive. I'm not asking for realism, but suppression does add immersion

[chilly nimbus]

honestly, fair counterpoint

[tame cobalt]

It was never meant to be 30, it showing 30 in the menu was the bug

[calm bison]

@lunar finch in line for IG

[pine roost]

then add a vignette to the side of the screen, that's immersive

[calm bison]

I’m just watching the faces of people as they return to the station

[solid imp]

I'd be satisfied if instead of suppression the sniper that I just hit twice in the chest plate isn't perfectly lining up his 8X on my head anymore

[arctic grove]

Best Portal Map

[tame cobalt]

which has been fixed

[fiery dawn]

so flinch/aim punch

[calm bison]

Hawt

[west raft]

Courtney gang

[pine roost]

I'm basically against any kind of effect that affects your crosshair in any meaningful way

[worthy elbow]

Is there a discarded/manifest 24/7 Playlist I don't know about because those are the only 2 maps I've been getting the past 3 days

[lunar finch]

Okay hear me out what if we remove the hannibal and huron for s3?

Eh? Good idea?

[west raft]

Scrap air vehicles at this point noone but sweats use them and said sweats have them all match

[tame cobalt]

no the map rotation system in this game is just dogshit

[lunar finch]

I just have beef with the stealth helis. I have 0 talent with vehicles and easily destroyed a lobby with it

The huron and hannibal take 0 skill

[surreal portal]

Do you reckon the new skins from the new event will be unlockable over all game modes?

[pine roost]

I've been begging for an aircraft rework since launch, that's why my username is what it is

they aren't fun to fly and they are simply broken

[lunar finch]

Yeah even the super hind can feel way to oppressive

[surreal portal]

I use helicopters to get onto buildings, all they’re good for rlly

[lunar finch]

Its so hard to destroy air vehicles in this bf

[west raft]

Might be some game mode specific missions but I couldn't imagine much beyond that

[surreal portal]

Oh no that’s gunna take so much longer 😭😭

[robust ember]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[west raft]

Prolly just sumn like "cap this many flags" blah blah blah

[west raft]

Nah

[robust ember]

One message removed from a suspended account.

One message removed from a suspended account.

[west raft]

Darn sounds cool

[pine roost]

you've got stingers, portable tows, Rao, wildcats and many other means of taking them down.
But regardless we have a situation where they aren't fun, and are too strong. I've been waiting since launch for a roll cam toggle, and there's still nothing

[west raft]

Maybe when I'm done playing jacks and hoop stick I'll hop on a match

[lunar finch]

Yeah lizs rocket isnt very good, stingers arent either, someone is always hogging the wildcat using it as anti infantry, you can just fly away from a rao, and flares have an insanely low cool down

[shell ermine]

Don't you gotta go unload crates down at the wharf first?

[west raft]

Damn ur right

[lunar finch]

Please dont nerf the Avancy tomorrow DICE its balanced🙁

[west raft]

Got a new mafioso tryna strongarm us down there some Al Capone jackass

[fiery dawn]

too late

[shell ermine]

Kids these days... we used to have to carry fruit crates fifteen miles uphill before we could play Battlefield 3.

[lunar finch]

[worthy elbow]

Can't wait to t1 the p90, damage is so inconsistent

[fiery dawn]

P90 is cracked

best smg

[surreal portal]

Seems like you have not harnessed the power of the laser

[rustic root]

so next specialist is a rogue division agent

[pine roost]

the flare cooldown is the same as bf4, it's just that the duration is longer. The wildcat problem is because they can't get their vehicle categories and weapon options right. And if they fly away they just have a brain cell. You aren't dead and you sent the heli away so you've done your job

[lunar finch]

Idk the p90 is weird. Sometimes it feels amazing then other times its a pea shooter

[surreal portal]

I gotta agree tbf

[lunar finch]

Sent it away for like 5 seconds

[pine roost]

but you can just re-hack him again

[worthy elbow]

It's a beam sometimes and yeah pea shooter other times

[rustic root]

next event literally just looks like a new specialist and it’s a rogue division 2 skin

but with a jammer

[fiery dawn]

P90 always feels strong to me

[hallow sierra]

knowing dat dice didnt really nerf the bsv they aint gonna "nerf" the avancy

[shell ermine]

P90 has a recoil glitch that is being worked on

#battlefield-2042 message

[lunar finch]

Well i think its because portal guns have damage multipliers and AOW ones dont so the P90 does less damage to legs and arms compared to other guns

[arctic grove]

Lets goooooooooooo 32v32 bots back up and running properly!

[hallow sierra]

hope they add some t1 skins to portal guns i didnt spend~~ waste ~~my time getting weapons t1 for nth

[arctic grove]

Now all I want it offline play when the game dies and I'll rest in peace

[lunar finch]

2042 will never die😪

[fiery dawn]

same

[lunar finch]

2042> ur fav

[arctic grove]

I mean like content wise, no more content being released

Cause battlefront 2 has it I'd love to see it in 2042

tbh

I enjoy 2042 More than the last 3 titles

[lunar finch]

Praying 2042 gets 2 years of support

[hallow sierra]

i mean u cant just jump the gun too early on something

[lunar finch]

^

[spring matrix]

2042 has really gotten better, bf4 had horrible bugs at launch. Streamers are just ruining it cause they aren't battlefield vets and don't realize dice fixes things and makes their games better, look at swbf2 now vs launch.

[arctic grove]

I doubt it tbh

[hallow sierra]

i dont give dice anything since they jump the gun too early on bf2042

[shell ermine]

SWBF2 was bad at launch and its still bad today

[arctic grove]

I doubt it'll be 2 more years but 2042 is enjoyable for me with the bots

I really enjoyed bf1 tho

[spring matrix]

swbf2 has way more content then launch, got rid of microtransactions, and overall better then launch was.

[gusty stream]

When is this event start

[arctic grove]

Tomorrow

[hallow sierra]

sooo i heard the mtar is coming to portal soooo

[gusty stream]

It’s the 11th for me I need a time

[spring matrix]

bf1 wasn't the best at launch either. Got better updates with time. Dice has really worked on making bf2042 better and still is.

[lunar finch]

Im sure 2042 is gonna get the BFV treatment

Next battlefield is gonna come out and its gonna be buggy and unfinished as usual then everyone is gonna praise 2042 even though they shit on it for a year

[shell ermine]

DICE refused to treat Star Wars Battlefront like arcade takes on Star Wars skinned Battlefield, like the original games were.

Their version of Conquest in SWBF2 is just awful

[fiery dawn]

because everyone forgets how rough the games were for the first year or so

they need to just spend an extra year developing their games before they launch them smh

[spring matrix]

supremacy is fun af on swbf2 lol you tripping

[arctic grove]

If they could allow offline bots then I'll be more than happy to play bf2042 way past its death (in the future) I still play swbf2 cause of the bot play

[spring matrix]

yeah real dice fans know they make their games better with time before releasing a new one.

[shell ermine]

Its awful. AI bots always on, hero and special class domination, no ticket bleed (rather point gain), poorly designed maps for Conquest, ship sections on Prequel and Sequel maps.

[arctic grove]

Ok

I think the AI is great. Just wish I didn't have to be always connected is all

[spring matrix]

@shell erminewell your name says everything lol

[shell ermine]

I think my biggest issue with swbf2 was that they ruined the gunplay by adding hipfire and movement penalties for shooting, lowered the overall mobility of players, and made the blasters look and sound like they were shooting bullets rather than blaster bolts.

[ancient peak]

If a portal server says limited xp can you not get weapon progress (ie kills towards M16 in AOW with the portal M16)

[arctic grove]

You complain a lot

[shell ermine]

You care a lot

[hallow sierra]

we all complain alot

[arctic grove]

Yes

cuz it poop

[fiery dawn]

it’s not the right way to do things though

[meager lance]

What do I do if I Get acused og stealing?

[spring matrix]

its annoying af for sure but just saying at least they work on fixing it. Some companies release shit and never fix it.

games already gotten better, but yeah its been a year almost. Sucks.

[shell ermine]

Should just be good from the start.

[spring matrix]

true

i agree

[calm bison]

This is DICE we’re talking here

[shell ermine]

So tired of almost every game having shit launches now and a "comeback" story a year later

[worthy elbow]

82 more kills on p90 leggoo

[calm bison]

The only games that were good from the start was Mirror’s Edge

[spring matrix]

well dice has been doing it forever, othergames followed sadly.

[shell ermine]

No I won't agree that CP2077 is good now.

[calm bison]

But it is

Granted it took them 2 years to fix it

But for what it is now

It’s a solid game

[shell ermine]

CP2077
Fallout 76
No Man's Sky
Overwatch 2
Anthem
2042
And dozens of others in the past 10 years have launched in shitty, broken states and we are supposed to praise the devs for eventually (supposedly) fixing them?

[lunar finch]

In their defense 2077 has been fixed and its a fantastic game now

[shell ermine]

Giving the dog a treat after it bites you will just lead to it biting you again

[lunar finch]

Yeah but is it the devs fault or the companys fault?

[arctic grove]

Why not?

It’s pretty good

[fiery dawn]

Yeah well those companies don’t last. At least Dice tries to fix their shit and that’s why they’re still around :P

[lunar finch]

Fr

[shell ermine]

I think we've learned from some inside baseball stuff at EA that has come out over the last two years that studio leads are typically just as much to blame, if not more so, than the publisher executives

[fiery dawn]

People are learning not to trust the big names anymore and maybe they’ll start to see fewer and fewer preorders till they learn their lesson and spend more time in development rather than rushing their launches for the money grab

[lunar finch]

Only game ive been intrigued to pre order recently is MW2

[hallow sierra]

if only ppl would see dat with mw2

[lunar finch]

I wanna play 2077 now😦

[arctic grove]

Same

[arctic grove]

I pre ordered MW2 just cause I play cod every year regardless of the state. Though imo Infinity Ward is normally on point with everything

[lunar finch]

60fps mode on series s has me so intrigued to play the game more, just wish there was a fov slider. Low fov fucks with my motion sickness

[arctic grove]

Cold war and vanguard were poor on launch cause of the last minute shit that was put on them

[fiery dawn]

MW2 looks really enticing but I’m not preordering. I’ll wait and see how it does and then probably buy on sale

[arctic grove]

Treyarch being handed a game not even like a year before launch same with vanguard and sledgehammer

@shell ermine how is 2077 still not good?

[lunar finch]

Mainly because Sledgehammer and Treyarch are mid compared to IW😪

[fiery shoal]

wouldnt high FOV be worse?

[lunar finch]

Nah

[arctic grove]

Pls give me your 2000 paragraph response

[lunar finch]

Being so zoomed in just makes me sick

[arctic grove]

Yesssssss it's true

[lunar finch]

MW>Mid ops

[arctic grove]

IW imo has always been on point, Treyarch has lost their way and it started with BO3. Sledgehammer had something going for them but they dropped it so hard

[fiery dawn]

2000 paragraphs? You sure you didn’t mean 2000 words? 🤣

[violet meteor]

[arctic grove]

no

[violet meteor]

Are you an enjoyer?

[arctic grove]

2000 paragraph essay

[fiery dawn]

ok then

[arctic grove]

Yes

[fiery dawn]

[arctic grove]

MW 2019 was my shit, Ground War was where it was at

[violet meteor]

Enjoyer

[fiery dawn]

How’s your mental health doing bud

[next onyx]

Cyberpunk is fun.

[fiery dawn]

Way you’re still awake xD

[hallow sierra]

funny dat it aint even been 2 months yet and the next cod is already leak i tho big companies already learn how smart their communities are

[lunar finch]

Yess i loved mw19 so much. I was an as val main though

[arctic grove]

WAY GO THE FUCK TO SLEEP

[violet meteor]

Oh my mind checked out and was replaced with a stash of boins

[weak root]

Hey, i need help. My CPU is at 100 even in Menu. I had this in Beta but after installing older graphics driver it workt (i dont know why). Now the problem is back again. I have a r5 5600x, 16gb ram, only m2 SSds, RTX3060 and tried everything i can imagine (user.cfg, variants of Drivers, reinstall, ....). Please help me 😂

[arctic grove]

IT IS LITERALLY LIKE 7 AM

SLEEP

[violet meteor]

I'm a boin enjoyer

[arctic grove]

MD

[fiery dawn]

The boins are powerful. Need more upvotes?

[arctic grove]

MF

[arctic grove]

Such a troll lmaoooooo I used the AK with iron sights and sniped people 😎

[violet meteor]

If I get enough karma they will let me go to sleep

[lunar finch]

One impressive thing about 2077 is that i usually never play single player games and get bored in like 5 minutes but 2077 constantly keeps me entertained

[fiery dawn]

[lunar finch]

Had it obsidian

[fiery dawn]

I’m gonna upgrade my GPU soon so I can enjoy it better

[next onyx]

@weak root Hey I run a 5600x as well and I don't run into the same issues.

Have you thoroughly looked into your task manager? What's your resolution?

[arctic grove]

WAYYYY

GTS

[lunar finch]

The AK was so good though wish it wasnt so slepped on

[next onyx]

?

[arctic grove]

SLEEP

[fiery dawn]

you’re not his babysitter 😂

[next onyx]

Can't.

[arctic grove]

I’m aware

[next onyx]

Cyberpunk runs hot.

[arctic grove]

But he’s my friend

So I care still

[arctic grove]

Y not

[arctic grove]

Bruuhhhh lmaooo nice, I think I only have like 2 weapons obsidian but I have damascus

[next onyx]

I can't sleep so I'm staying.

[arctic grove]

ohhh

fine

[lunar finch]

GPUs are so expensive itd prob be cheaper to just buy a series s and play it lmao

[next onyx]

Got an energy drink to skull down.

[weak root]

dm?

[hallow sierra]

surprising

[fiery dawn]

nah nah PC master race

🤣

I can get a 3080 for like 700 USD right now

[violet meteor]

For every hour way doesn't sleep, he donates 3k boins to a child in need of food and not digital currency that only works in one game

[lunar finch]

See double the price

[fiery dawn]

I already have the PC and everything else is up to date so I’m not switching to a console

[lunar finch]

Dont have to switch

Just nice having one on hand

[arctic grove]

I've already got the 3080 😎

And bf2042 still runs like crap sadly :/

[lunar finch]

I lowkey wanna buy a second series s and put it in dev mode and run an emulator on it

Maybe do switch emulation or something

[arctic grove]

Steam deck

[fiery dawn]

Series S is Xbox right

[lunar finch]

Steam deck seems like an overpriced gimmick tbh

[lunar finch]

Yeah

[next onyx]

I'm staying on pc whenever the fuck.

[fiery dawn]

They’re really that cheap?

[lunar finch]

Yeah 300

[fiery dawn]

There’s no shot

[lunar finch]

You can go to ur closest electronic store and get one for 300 lol

Especially target

[arctic grove]

It's really nice actually, I might have one that I can use 👀

[fiery shoal]

50 bucks more to get a better switch minus the switch library and its basically a computer too? kind of hard to say its overpriced or a gimmick

[granite island]

Should I buy the next gen version of the game

Or stay on the last gen version of the game

[lunar finch]

Yeah but it doesnt come with much space for the base model so u gotta buy extra space or a diff model

[granite island]

The 128 player thing look nice

But the map size is worrying

[lunar finch]

And i have 0 games on steam except phasmophobia lmao

[fiery shoal]

sd cards are like... 20 bucks for 100gb though

[lunar finch]

Damn they are that cheap now?

[lunar finch]

I wish SSD's were that cheap

[fiery shoal]

18 bucks for 128gb, even better

[hallow sierra]

i tho he mean pc ssd

[fiery shoal]

we talking steam decks, which take sd cards

[fiery dawn]

wtf why so cheap? what’s the catch?

[hallow sierra]

cuz i about to say they aint dat cheap

[fiery shoal]

ssd's are cheaper than sd cards though

[fiery dawn]

1080p 30fps only I assume

[lunar finch]

Nah 60fps

I get 60 on cyberpunk

[fiery dawn]

that’s tempting af i’m ngl to you 😂

[next onyx]

The series s is a slightly more powerful one x.

[lunar finch]

It can do 120 on games but my monitor is only 60hz so idk

[fiery dawn]

ye mine too

[next onyx]

Better ssd to boot.

Big as a 4090.

[arctic grove]

xbox better

[fiery dawn]

i’d just buy a PS5 so I can play PS exclusives but I can’t afford that

[fiery shoal]

1tb for sd card looks to be about 120, you can get 1tb nvme drives for 80 bucks...

[lunar finch]

One thing i find interesting about xbox is that they sell their consoles at a loss and make money off gamepass

[fiery shoal]

thats been a thing for consoles in general for decades

even before subs

[lunar finch]

Really?

[fiery shoal]

"Sony (SNE) will lose $241.35 on every PlayStation 3 game console it sells at $599, and $306.85 on every console it sells with a smaller hard drive at $499, according to an analysis of the component costs conducted by iSuppli, a research firm.Nov 15, 2006

Sony's loss is at least $240 on every PS3 - Fortune"

[lunar finch]

With the way sony is raising them ps5 prices im not sure they can afford selling at a loss anymore😭

[hallow sierra]

one thing i dont like about playing on consoles is u still have to pay for online access

[fiery shoal]

i mean, the hardware is getting better too so they are likely still being sold at a loss

[lunar finch]

Well gamepass comes with gold so its not a problem for me

And gamepass is 150% worth it

[fiery dawn]

I really could grab a series S but I would like to upgrade my GPU for lots of things on PC anyway so I might as well spend the 7 or 800 on a 3080. It’s tempting though

[fiery shoal]

the correct choice

[hallow sierra]

i only download one game from gamepass and dat was it

[fiery dawn]

lol yah… I just enjoy being on PC so much more I’ve never enjoyed playing on console much

[lunar finch]

60% of the games i have are from gamepass and u get ea play so i save on boins

[fiery shoal]

just do what i did and make a pc that you can move from your computer room to the tv and play like that

especially since 95% of xbox exclusives are on pc as well

[arctic grove]

how did you manage

Nyphon did you even put your pc in a case

[fiery dawn]

oh I don’t even care about being on the tv/couch

[arctic grove]

is it just a motherboard with everything connected

[fiery shoal]

i built a pc cart

[arctic grove]

a pc cart

[fiery shoal]

or you can just buy a cart too

[arctic grove]

Can I see the cart

[lunar finch]

I was gonna build a pc then i realized i could pay $10 for gforce now

[hallow sierra]

wait what

[arctic grove]

pc would be better tho

[fiery dawn]

geforce now is a cool concept but it sucks compared to actually having a PC

[arctic grove]

^

[lunar finch]

I dont play many competitive games so it works fantastically

[hallow sierra]

wait i tho it was free what happen

[arctic grove]

cool concept. but I’d bad

[fiery dawn]

I used it on my laptop for a couple years while I was a turbo brokie in college and it wasn’t that fun

[lunar finch]

Its really good now

Theres like 0 lag

[fiery dawn]

oh yah it’s gotten better, but I still prefer having the PC obviously :P

[lunar finch]

All i do is use it to play phas lol

[fiery dawn]

if you’re broke, it’s a fantastic cover

[lunar finch]

Fr

[arctic grove]

wot gpu

[lunar finch]

I just dont feel like building a pc because all my games are on xbox and if i move to pc ima still play on controller anyways so

[fiery shoal]

this is my old build though

[copper fulcrum]

That was also the desk

[lunar finch]

Interesting

So u can just wheel it around? Lmao

[fiery shoal]

yep

dont skimp out on thermals and space to expand/work in

but its not a paint to move back and forth

latest build on the cart

[arctic grove]

Looks nice lol

Mine looks like crap

[dapper river]

They see me rollin'
They hatin'
Patrolling and tryna catch me running thirty (fps)

[arctic grove]

wanna see

[fiery shoal]

do it

[arctic grove]

I’d send it

But I don’t have reg

[fiery shoal]

dm and ill post

[arctic grove]

Ok

Sent

[fiery shoal]

dayummm but its got a custom loop

[arctic grove]

uhhh no it don’t

The loop has to be cleaned out

And water replaced

[fiery shoal]

so youre not using the loop anymore?

[lunar finch]

What does a custom loop mean?

[arctic grove]

No I still am

I just have to get fresh water in eventually

[arctic grove]

The bottle and tubes in the pic

[lunar finch]

Ohh ok

[arctic grove]

mhm

They have water running thru them

[fiery shoal]

yea his bottle and tubes, an AIO (opposite of custom loop) is what mine is for my cpu cooler

outlined in red is my AIO (all in one) water cooler

basically just attach and it works, if ruby put his water loop together himself it requires cutting the tubes and putting it all together with fasteners and what not

[arctic grove]

HUGE pain in my ass btw

[fiery shoal]

yea ill never do it myself

ill stick with air temps and AIO for cpu cooling

[arctic grove]

I Gave up half way thru tbh

and just made my dad do It

[fiery shoal]

lol poor dad

[arctic grove]

lol

[fiery shoal]

what are your specs?

[arctic grove]

1080ti, i7-8700k 32gb ram

[still vault]

You cannot post graphical material like that in here

[fiery dawn]

I still have a 980TI hand-me-down cause I’m a brokie but i’m looking to grab a 3080 while they’re on clearance

[fiery shoal]

lol i was waiting for someone to notice that

[lunar finch]

Why did my dumbass think liquid cooled pcs used coolant and not water

[fiery shoal]

980ti is still solid for 1080p though

[arctic grove]

if all goes well in the next werk

Week

[fiery shoal]

ive seen milk and beer used

[arctic grove]

I should be upgrading from my 1080ti

To a mf 3090

I’ll need to get a new pcu

[lunar finch]

Doesnt alchohol have a low boiling point? Beer would destroy it... right?

[fiery shoal]

afaik most liquids just evaporate faster and might gunk up certain fins faster, but thats it

[chilly nimbus]

so while fucking around in offline mode I got a notification that I unlocked the AEK-971 but I can’t find it in my inventory, is that gun releasing with tomorrow’s update?
