it was a joke
What event?
it is possible in solo but idk about portal
how did you unlock the era specific portal weapons
did someone unlock the m2 carbine for example?
They'll have requirements when you hover over them.
idk
bet
I got the aek-971 though
But the m2 carbine and bren are only unlockable in servers that actually allow for it.
M2 Carbine, my beloved...
I got this one too, but you know whicch ones I am referring to
I haven't bothered to check those
the ones locked behind era specific official games which are kinda non existent
uh you don't get bp exp playing custom portal modes? wtf
so like idk know how to even unlock those ones
like I have been waiting for an 1942 event to even be capable of doing that but I guess that they just don't care
fr?
iirc if the xp is full or moderate you can at least earn points through xp
Boom
It's more of the matter of fact that people play those modes with modified rulesets which disallows progression.
I just want to play 1942 portal man
this map is so beautiful
salute
the hitbox is so weird
you can't shoot through a patch of grass
can't shoot through invisible tree
devs pls fix
Keep repeating it for infinite frames 
does breakthrough work for you?
ass map
botb literally worst map next to el Alamein
it seems broken or there are no servers?
it's pretty tho
i keep getting put back to title when its about to start
oh its in now
scrapped bfv dlc map

of course it's beautiful, it's a bfv map 
uh that's a 1942 remade map
is it hard to believe that the started as a bfv dlc map
Yes
except it looks exactly like the original map
bro
that doesn't look like the portal map at all 
ok
I think it does
And while it was a great map in 1942 I think time has made it rather empty and flat
Another reason I think Portal should have had a map editor so people could modify the maps.
Some trenches, buildings and wrecks around the map would really help
well yeah it's a remake but i think it was supposed to be a remake dlc in bfv like wake island
Church looking like another church? Amazing
Church being the exact same asset as the church asset that was already used multiple times within bfv

Guess they COULD spend their time making almost identical church assets over and over again
Personally, I want them to borrow from previous games even more if that means more maps
I don't disagree 
Dude arguing about classes BAD specialists GOOD and using this example claiming Recon shouldn't have C4, and then shilling for a game where EVERYONE CAN HAVE C4 ON THEM NO MATTER WHAT

Think about your arguments if you're going to be a contrarian
I enjoy 2042 a lot but come on now
Wait, u mean to imply that BF4 wasn't the absolute peak of game design and isn't completely flawless? 

BF4 had major balancing problems but it's better than 2042's approach of "we aren't balancing anything at all"
And I say that as someone who abused the shit out of the old hind and condor
can't give two fucks about classes vs specialists because they don't matter
in older games people play the one class with the meta gun anyway
and just like that, all your opinions are invalid


It's okay I used the condor to hunt stealth helis mostly anyways
The weak should fear the strong
imagine
dude's mad enough he finds a message from days ago 
I would like remind everyone that bc2 multiplayer is overrated and stinky

BF4 weapon class system was good cause each class had 4 weapon classes and 3 of them in each class were common to all classes, which let you the opportunity to play decent amount of weapons no matter which class you picked
yeah it was a cool system, tons of guns to play with, but meta slaves would use only 1 gun anyway lol
no the class system is and always has been PERFECT and if you disagree you're shilling
something something
i had a wild night the past 2 nights
I think the 12mm is the only weapon in the game that is inherently unfun to kill people with

Delete system 32 folder
2 hours more and my ps5 bf2042 updated
i got ps5 yesterday and bought today bf2042 for it
so i need update it
lol
The all class weapons in BF3 and BF4 were a huge mistake. I'm glad they fixed that for BFV.
bolt sucks 😦
or am i using it wrong
bc i feel like everything kills me and i kill nothing
I hope season 3 brings a map like exposure


It was a good alternative for people who think weapon class restrictions is a bad thing
At this point I just hope it features a map, no matter what it looks like 
someone would have to pay me to buy 2042
i keep watching streams of the game and just shake my head
some of the gunplay looks alright though
get ready for containerment
Lol and a new cheated kind of vehicles which can't be destroyed with Stinger

I want a suburban map
of america
pls dice
I remember all the bf2042 leaks had me so hyped
so much promise
what is the point of a squad leader?
or was bolt made for all out warfare 128 players?
It all had so hyped mate 
Wait so they have said season 3 isn't getting a new map ?
next map will be in EU
You know what I've found the SFar harder to T1 then both the M5 and the ak
Lol no I was just joking don't worry mate you'll get a new map in 1.5 month
Oh thank god because the current Maps are just making me not have the will to play the game it's killing me
Dude I don't want to kill your season 3 map's hype but it will probably not be incredible seeing the last map they released lol
Stranded is shit
Yeah stranded is just a reskin if discarded 😂
I doubt season 3 map will be really greater
The landscapes are horrible lol, map is ugly but at least it plays well
Exactly
also map rework of that rocket map ive never played is coming
There isn't a single decent original map in 2042 (even after the reworks), I don't expect Season 3 or 4's to be good
Yeah Orbital is the best map and will still be the best map
Uuurm I would say exposure is a very good map
Orbital is good, Kaleidoscope is decent and so is Manifest, Exposure is a original but could have been better, Breakaway and all other are shit
Which gun should i run tonight (excluding snipers or sidearms)
AK-24
Aight
also yyk what i hope for
fr deadass a new drone would be cool
cause ranger kinda meh
So what makes u think a new one would be better? 
idk, more variety

also im hopin for a humongus update someday, and then a all out warfare 128 players mode for the weekend
cause that stuff was so fun
prob never gonna happen tho 😦
there already 128 mode
64 player rush in aow again please
Still waiting for them to add titan mode from 2142
still waiting for a revive of 2142 and bf vietnam
heard it was really fun/good
like conquest and then the leading team attacks the enemy's airship
cause noone playing that stuff
@tame cobaltnice
that was fun
Like they go onto the ship and attack objs on it
but wheres 128 player mode
cause i wanna play that stuff rn
conquest
thats 64
im playin on ps5 and it still 64
Bruh
U playin exodus conquest
Normal conquest is 128

lifesaver, else i wouldnt have touched that
Wait so how long do we have left in this season?
something like 40 or so days I think
1.5 month, season 3 is supposed to arrive in the very beginning of December
Man I hope I can finish it
I haven't looked in a minute though
Are you doing the missions?
Particularly the one that gets you a whole tier that only lasts the week?
I was done season 1 just all the missions the xp-based points I only had to go up to like 8k per point
Oh you're fine lmao
you've got 5 more weeks of missions you'll get those tiers easy
i mean one week of missions is a guaranteed like 5 levels lol
yeah you'll be done by tuesday
When orbital rework
I want to see a 2042 map that has as good of a balance between armor and infantry play as Provence in BFV.
The amount of times I jump out of aircraft and it puts my into the blades of the helicopter and then my parachute doesn't work in unbelievable
1 hour for what
my bf 2042 updated
and i can try it first time on my ps5
bought it yesterday
oh nice
There is cross progression so, yeah
Need the accounts to be linked but then yes cross progression
1 year later they still haven't fixed the bug where everyting starts turning invisible
turning invisible? never had that happen
i had issue with my xbox series x i cant sometimes run when i respawn
what are you playing on?
pc
ur joking when you say 2042 is on switch right
pc it might be on your end
yes
maybe not. i had graphic issues with my pc and meet recommended requirements.
now im wondering how the game is on a steam deck
i got the next gen version for xbox series it runs a lot better then pc for me.
do you have issue sometimes you cant run
on xbox
i had issue
series x
weird
i played with series x but yesterday i bought ps5 and gived my series x for my 7 years old littlebrother
now i bought bf2042 for my ps5 and i installing update
idk it hasnt happened to me yet i played about 4-5 hours yesterday

hope it gets fixed for you that sucks
i'm on series S
its weaker then X but good for 1080p gaming i already had more digital games from when i owned xbox one. Had PS4 for awhile then got the S.
Getting ready for ragnarok i see
ahh the waiting game for that sequel

it says 42mins left
You can tell it's Sunday the quality of player in game right now is clearly school child trying to get afew games before beddy byes
Yeah it's 20.10 here
kinda jealous ngl
unless ur struggling
Skill
is there an unlockable 1911 in 2042 that I don't know about?
imagine if BF2042 implemented the O3-z Shield system for tanks its nothing like Tom Clancy's End-war SLAMS Space-Land-Air-Missile Shield (SLAMS)
how have you not learned about vault weapons
you can get it yes
dude theres a ton of portal guns in the normal game now
its one of the latest vault weapons added
oh right I'm a dumbfuck, I also have unlocked it but I put a silencer on so it looked nothing like an 1911 to me
lmao

speed of nearly 30 kilometers per second, or 67,000 miles per hour. so if earth moves at this speed with its ozone could a tank or human move at such lower rates???
ya boi just bought a 3080 pc
cute lil boi
where did you get that
no idea lol
it's a reward if you're subscribed to the newsletter
it is?
oh nvm i got it
i just had to look for it
lol
dementia catching up to me 
I'm pretty sure searching for "battlefield newsletter" will tell how to subscribe etc.
its cool I can just drive my ass to best buy before the pc arrives 🤣
just be like my bro and hook it up to the tv lmao
this song is so catchy bro
"Makin' it work" (Tank factory edit)
guy tosses torch to bro

would my 2042 progress carry over from ps5 if i use the same EA account on PC?
mine
did
yes
I got it even without subscribing
dope
Been a while I haven’t went back playing BF 2042 since last week and took a break

I’ll decide to come back if there’s any specific updates they’ll add or if I’m in the mood to go back again
Just wish they add another missile that’s fires freely without lock on system, IDK where do they listen the feedbacks even last time I went to their website and gave some ideas, that was only last time before season 1 started
they had the specialist feedback loop that just closed recently and the map loop from some months ago in #948574259209437264
they also sent a couple surveys out in emails
feedback is usually also like... the general sentiment of the community and their own observations not one guy posting on a forum
the little things are satisfying
are all my Boins comrade in arms gone . . .?

mustve gotten dead bc of when my psu died

or ww3 killed it
Rest in pieces

Boris Boin still alive sadly

NOOOO
Anyone know why a condor with c5 attached to the front cannot destroy a ram or a tank?
I have got 3x proof that the tank just moves after impact and 0 damage
Tanks are Built Different
and c5 damage to tank got nerfed
So mean, the tank was just creaming people and it was a good idea, but the condor bounced off the tank
indeed it does
actually it seems like the c4 just doesn't detonate?
so the condor impact does nothing it just deposits the c4 onto the tank, which you can then detonate.
i read that and figured it was probably what was happening
I always enjoyed the lab part of the class more than the lecture 😄
anyone know olemsmith
i continue to debate if i should play 2042 more but then i just play cyberpunk and i am happy
buy boins
indeed
Could that be because it’s a neutral vehicle and not hostile?
Does that maybe make the C5 behave differently?
Played the tactical sleep event
Manage to get 100 ribbions for the tank skin
Now to never play it again


Man I'm finding that Mackay kills for T1 sometimes don't track
Most things don't track properly in 2042
Yeah I've noticed that 😂
self-reminder message
Could be
So all of the cosmetics have been released for this event, apart from the Mackay helmet

Yaaay 6th gun to T1 onto the next one 😂
season 2 t1 !
Also how empty is this game that it's struggles to get two full lobbies of breakthrough going
uh, poor taste?
2017
not really
lmao
battlefield players try not to make the biggest reach to complain about challenge
Bring back 128 player breakthrough
I loved that
I haven’t been playing it at all

hc tdm is super lit
my birthday is tomorrow
Are y’all getting me anything
I’ve been hearing people suggest it goes to 16v16 instead of 8 which would make getting those ribbons a lot easier
i just had metaphysical sex

So did the AK get buffed?
Haven't touched it since I T1'd it like 5 months ago but I saw a bunch of people using it in my games and it seemed to be performing pretty well so I just tried it out and feels great
All ARs got buffed due to the headshot multiplier
i forget what tier i have for the ak
will this game get cut after season 4
it would be surprising if it isn't
how could u say dat youre cutting a game off when the game wasnt in season 1 yet
what does invalid game state mean
Lol so only 4 new maps before it gets cancelled 💀
dice really flexing those muscles with this battlefield
It'll get cancelled right when the game starts to get good
well tbh after 330+ hours of playing and still seeing simple bugs in the game that they havent fixed for almost a year now i would say the devs clearly arent worried about making the game a long term project feels like they are doiung bare minimum ( 2 new maps in 12months is a joke)
11 months for a single acknowledgement of the input issues this game has, and not even a full fix for them.
enter complaint hi i joined with 3 tickets left :(((
i agree with u
yeah exactly input issues still not fixed ads after being in vehicles with undermounted weapons still not fixed the ads after revive still not fixed and the worst of them all is the spawn bug clearly clicking on a select target either a team mate or a zone and getting spawned in a complete different location
unless s3 comes with a huge update and content i think this will be my last season on 2042
yeah. This game is not going to last past the initial 4 seasons of content they would make. And honestly? It shouldn't. They should just scrap this, and use the feedback to make the next Battlefield game decent.
ive had my fun and always brushed things off but its getting to the point where the enjoyment has subsided and the issues havent been resolved i
its such a shame because this was supposed to be the "love letter " to the bf fans
turns out the letter was just toilet paper with skid marks on
Pretty sure the love letter was portal
the thing that they also have forgotten about xD
sure
get a friend or two, laugh at the small bugs and enjoy the rest of the game
Is there any way to see stats or badge progress etc outside of game?
Iike a website or companion app?
tracker is what I use
yea just connect your account and your stats are there
yeah, I use it for a lot of different games
Nice thanks guys
Well yeah but I thought there was a chance it might've been buffed by itself this last patch but that headshot multiplier buff really does make a difference
am40 spray and pray never stop being fun
XDR Holo on the new AK skin is real nice
Sorry wrong chat
😂 haha I'm sorry I thought I was back in the right chat
damn I missed whatever it was lol
small mistake
😠😠ðŸ˜
love letter was a really fancy "The" followed by a blank sheet of paper
Portal would’ve been cool if they ended up supporting most if not all of its included games maps and guns or something, but it should’ve been something that was released by itself
We do a little el alamein milsim larping
battlefield portal as its own game probably would've pretty well received
you all have Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia from the Z-95
damn...
Portal would've been better if it was it's own game rather than being attached to 2042. But then again, barely anyone really utilized the tools Portal had to make anything interesting, just doing high damage "hardcore milsim realism" servers or stuffing 128 players in maps not made for that, so frankly, maybe the Battlefield community doesn't deserve Portal.
yeah i remember being hype for the logic editor and then never having the motivation to use it cuz 2042 overall kinda left me sour
i think portal was just overshadowed by the bad stuff from AOW and the dead-on-arrival hazard zone. it was a neat concept but i think they just did not have a good roadmap for it
either that or any roadmap present was snuffed out when 2042's playerbase fell by like 85% and the suits were like "do the bare minimum and get out"
Portal was also just filled with trash servers
plus them not being persistent was a problem
yeah some design choices were not muy bueno
i think allowing people to set damage above 100% was a mistake
lol the hardcore disaster
"Hardcore" should've been immediately filed under No XP.
chaotic position but i think the whole "no xp/moderate/full" should've never been a thing
i think full xp should just be available no matter what
that also goes for solo/coop
Portal should never have interacted with someone's level in 2042 at all.
you know what you're probably right lol. they could've done a separate levelling profile for portal or something
You should have everything unlocked in Portal, and the available weapons should be determined by the gamemode you're playing
nah
no need for leveling in Portal at all.
i do be nodding my head to these ideas
it was always meant to be a sandbox platform anyway. might as well just take the locks off everything
you could keep stat counters for those who are goblins for the numbers but otherwise yea
yeah. changing weapon damage is a dogshit feature though, and shouldn't be a thing. I cannot think of any legitimate reason why people should be able to do that.
having fucking 900% damage "hardcore realism" servers is dogshit
and that was most of what Portal was.
it was mostly chucklefucks thinking that people always dying in one shot from everything is somehow realistic.
i can see its use for like really creative/wacky modes. i appreciate the option being available for creativity's sake. but yes as you say creativity wasn't really encouraged or sought in portal soon after launch.
"THE REAL HARDCORE // 800% DAMAGE // GET TAGGED GET DEAD"
yeah fuck that

to this day i have not hopped in a HC server lmao i dont even want to know the pain
ah yes, "Creativity"
yeah and then the game launched and we quickly realized that the example modes we saw in the portal trailers were actually the limit of how far you could go
and also the AI was quite stupid so the AI modes were pointless
omg yea lmao i totally forgot they mentioned "machine-learning" in the promos
soo was that just a lie or did they copy paste like 1% of some machine-learning template and ran with that for hype
i was so hype thinking i was gonna be able to have a full XP blast in coop like in battlefront 2. that game's coop mode is chef's kiss
well i donno, the only real footage of the AI in action i saw was from the beta. But i haven't seen much indication that they've gotten any smarter.
they've gotten less buggy. they do a little bit more now (like responding to your requests for ammo and stuff)
well yeah but would they actually be fun to fight against.
they're fun to farm for like 5 minutes and then it gets kinda boring
yeah that's basically what i thought
doesnt help that you get like 5000 xp per match so there's really no reason to keep playing solo/coop besides farming attachments
might as well call it attachment-acquisition mode >_>
oh there's also a hard cap. so even if you wanted to grind xp in solo/coop it'll stop giving you xp entirely after like the 2nd or 3rd match
I think it really say something about Portal when the featured gamemode right now is literally Hardcore TDM
i have a question
ðŸ˜
And there was also 128 player Rush, 128 player TDM
is 2042 worth getting on xbox one
i was talking to someone a night ago that plays it a lot on xbox one
and they seemed to be happy so
i think its up to the individual lol
not at all
also this
like in terms of gunplay, movement, etc
it is almost NOTHING like 5 or 1 in terms of overall design
Gunplay is more like BF4
which is fine to me
but if you like BFV you probably won't like it.
probably cause you're used to having random recoil.
BF4 if bullets actually went where you were aiming your gun without tap-firing
that sounds like a "Not running stubby grip/hbar" problem
Tbh LWG grip actually gives more accuracy than stubby
that sounds like a "i shouldn't have to equip an attachment so that my gun actually functions like a normal gun" problem
in BF4?
I mean, it's not that big of a problem, really.
so smooth =w=
legit
yea its minor just a personal gripe
yeah
its so fin running around with a Mg42 and flanking the enemy then mowing down eemveryone
Personally i prefer it over BFV's spread to recoil conversion that just makes recoil random.
like, i donno about you but i prefer at least being able to control my gun
I prefer BF3's method of "idk how it works but my bullets tend to go where i want them to"
skill issue
hip fire
dont aim
DO NOT AIM WITH MACHINE GUNS UNLESS YOU WANT A FUCKING SEIZURE
god i miss how viable hip fire was in 1 and 5 lol
you genuinely cannot perfectly control random recoil, it is not possible. That's not a skill issue, that's just how it is.
i personally have never really noticed or had an issue with the random recoil/bullet deviation that ppl like to talk about
i love it
stg 44 has the worst iron sights ever istg
probably because it feels so much worse in 4 to me lol
aiming with the stg 44 without the reflex is fucking awful
yeah sometimes aiming is like a literal honey trap
BF4's perfectly fine, though.
also i'm sorry but i fucking hate BF1's overreliance on hipfire in regards to gunplay with fully automatic weapons
dammmm we could not be any more opposite lol
same ngl
i love it. i love hipfiring my beloved
Like, the visual recoil on full auto weapons is ridiculous and hipfiring is way too effective in my opinion.
it was certainly a weird design choice but i meshed with it
And it's annoying because DICE removed visual recoil from BF4 weapons for a reason
hipfired the shit outta my auto revolver and scoped in with my semi auto rifle as medic
And that reason was because it was distracting and sucked ass.
but they kept the bloom which made me annoyed and confused before i understood how to interact with the gunplay properly
that said it do not matter to me anymore as i almost exclusively run shotties lol
eh personally I don't mind the bloom, it was a way to balance the weapons.
of course you do, you can't figure out how gunplay works just remove 90% of it with shotguns. :I
its good for balance, the lack of visual feedback just feels illogical. i dont like watching bullets land far around where my steady aim is pointing
honestly Bf5 looks better than 1
yeah but BF1 suffered from the same problem, a lack of visual feedback for bloom. They had bullet tracers in first person for that game for a bit, but they got disabled because apparently they didn't work properly.
BF1 is really the only game i have a problem with bloom in, not because it exists but because the medic SLR's have way too much of it for what they are. they're supposed to be accurate rifles for attacking out to mid-long range, so why do they bloom so badly on repeated shots?
and of course it gets worse when you bring in Suppression.
I fucking hate suppression.
Is battlefield V still active on Xbox since battle field 2042 came out
good question
that doesn’t sound right at all. if anything the bf1 tracers have always been super prominent, the absence of visible tracers close range is what had me so bamboozled in 4
no bloom if you hesitate juuuust the slightest between shots. kinda same philosophy as tap firing in BF4 but it clicked better for me personally in bf1, again because the tracers were so prominent so I knew exactly where my bullets were going and thus I understood how I was affecting the accuracy
i have a love/hate relationship with suppression in games
but generally, getting suppressed = retreat and re-engage which I didn’t have any problems with
and man I loved suppressing the shit out of snipers lol
I think it should be, 1 is still active on last gen consoles
Nah BF1 doesn't have bullet tracers in first person, not for full auto weapons. But yeah, BF4 tracers didn't really work in close range in a decision that I don't really understand
I hate a pure hate relationship with it, I don't like getting punished because some fucking idiot can't hit me
Skill issue
More axtive actually
Plenty of conquest servers
Good breakthrough servers
Thats about it
skill issue? me getting punished cause someone else can't fucking hit me is a skill issue on my part?
thats the point of suppression ya know
its not just "someone cant hit me"
when you cant see the enemy and you're trying to help your team, suppression is a godsend
yes it is. It's bullshit. You wanna throw off my aim, fucking hit me.
Fucking kill me.
You don't get to shoot near me and fuck up my aim.
thats how it is irl
i know the game isnt supposed to be realistic, but thats like the bare minimum
I don't give a shit how it is irl mate this is a fucking video game
heres what to do when being suppressed: throw smoke or explosives
or change positions
if youre being suppressed, you already fucked up badly
also it makes it so snipers cant aim so fuck them
fuckin unbelievable
pacific storm for example: suppression is such a fucking godsend
if you have at least 5 brain cells you know how to counter suppression
If you have 5 braincells you can fucking aim at someone and kill them.
you know its hard to kill someone when theyre hiding right
If they're hiding, then you don't get to kill them unless you toss a nade or flank
it's just that simple
Mg42s have bullets that can pen sandbags n shit lol
Taxes
Good for it
also bf5 has no supression
its a visual effect thats all
in bf5 if youre being suppressed, again, you fucked up BADLY
I am well aware i was talking about BF1
I mean it gives away the persons location
oh bf1?
where it actually fucks up your aim
i wont comment
okay
its a bit shitty in bf1
i understand it would make sense to throw off your aim brcause of fear
but again, these soldiers are fucking getting burnt alive, getting a fucking HE shell to the skull, and still runing around fighting with a experimental gun
shit u right
LOL i feel that
It does make sense but this is an arcade shooter and you're rewarding someone for missing you, which is not a great mechanic
at the same time i like being able to keep someone's head down to cover my buddies when the situation calls for it
Bf1 has awful gunplay honestly
yeah i'd agree
also i think it just gets an extra subjective pass from me cuz BF1 is so ✨ atmospheric ✨
BF1 is a bit of a mess mechanically
Time to kill is shit, bullets go 5 miles off target, guns overheat stupid fast, guns are so slow to reload
i don't know why anyone put up with it
its super wacky but i enjoyed it
i like bf1 but dear god that gunplay is so bad
why do machine guns take 5 years to kill but a SMG kills me in one sjot?
I like playing medic in BF1.
i think it also highly depends on what kinda guns you use
me too =w=
like some categories got a lot of love and other categories got shit in the ass
But unfortunately a lot of things seem designed to fuck me up for existing, like assault being dominant in close range, basically hold M1 and win, and support bipods
yeah
i wont lie i have counter sniped a fair amount of people with an LMG and thought to myself "lol this is bullshit" but kept going
and also the sweet spot mechanic for Scout is terrible
i'd rather just single bodyshot kills in close quarters and beyond that you gotta hit headshots
there's no reason i should be able to oneshot to the body at like 75m or whatever arbitrarily when i can't do so any closer
yeah i think there are pros/cons to both styles in terms of what kinds of gameplay they encourage. like the henry martini sweet spotting at close-medium distance
this is also a fair opinion
Fuck the martini henry.
fuck the martini but dammm those youtube compilations are satisfying af to watch 😩
Bf5 machine guns are sexy
dont reward sustained fire
just
mmmm
unless youre an engineer
lol
the semi-realistic nut in me enjoyed sustained fire being rewarded but i dont think it meshes well with an arcade style shooter so yeah 🤜 🤛
dumping an LMG on a position in bf1 to suppress/kill made me actually feel like a machine gunner doing the irl job
yes
I never bothered with Support in BF1 unless i was running the BAR
In pacific storm today i was in a sherman and we were pushing the objective and i was helping my team suppressing the enemy with the roof machine gun and oh my god i loved it
based BAR appreciator
which i wasn't doing suppressive fire with anyway.
Engineer is so fucking OP for tanks
gotta love it when it all clicks
i was lighting up airships and airplanes with that thing lol
i felt like an actual vital part of the battle
i didn't play any modes with vehicles, truth be told i don't care for infantry/vehicle combat.
oh wow. i basically exclusively played operations
probably the best multiplayer FPS experiences ive had thus far are in operations bf1
certified battlefield moment
Fuck the shitty tank campers
amen
Youre supposed to go up with your team and support them and push the enemy
I like infantry only combat. That's the only aspect of BF that i really like.
Fuck planes
All my homies hate planes
u are an interesting one...
mostly because infantry/vehicle combat makes me fucking hate my team
the whole reason i got into BF in the first place 10 years ago is cuz of the vehicle presence
unless im the gunner for a really good pilot then planes are kinda cool but YEA FUCK PLANES
i don't remember why i got into BF. I just know i started giving a shit about BF4 after watching footage of really good infantry players doing cool things.
Bf1 was one of the first games i got for xbox one
Zfell in love with the war stories
fell way more in love with the multiplayer
got Bf5
BF1 was a gift from friends. We played it for a little bit, then stopped.
BF1 was my first proper battlefield that I played a fuckton. didn't have the hardware to play previous entries consistently
i fell so madly and deeply in love with Bf5
BF3 and BC2 were my first Battlefield games on PC
came back to BF3 later and i also love that one so much
I don't have as much experience with BF3 cause i got it really late, got Premium later, and basically all anyone runs is Canals TDM and i am so fucking sick of Canals.
yeah finding good servers was a struggle
i mostly played rush
was chasing that operations high lol
I do not like Rush.
Wanna hear something
my true Opposite 
The first time I played Bf5 multiplayer
I played the mode where its like breakthrough and you gotta hold objectives long enough to call in artillery support
I remember, it was devastation
We were being rained on with artillery
I was calling in support
We barely held on by a thread
But we eventually won
moments like that are why I say that operations is probably where I've experienced my greatest moments in FPS multiplayer
the attritional chaos
The one time i played Frontlines in BF1 my team kept bouncing back and forth between two flags the entire game and by the time we actually managed to push up, the round ended due to the time limit.
Omg frontlines is the best gamemode RVER
There was also a tank dipshit on the other team that nobody on my team was interested in dealing with.
I dropped 60+ as medic, top of my team.
so ive heard. ive never gotten a chance to play it
i guess BF1 just aint your cup of tea and thats chill
still super alive on playstation
i wanted to punch my entire team in the face
like at some point it was just straight up not my fault.
I could not do any more than i was doing.
A good support player can do so much more than a good assualt player
im tempted to get back into BFV but not on PC. battlefield plays differently on console vs. PC. i have more fun on console with 1 or V
I was medic



ok but why
i understand the feeling
Support - can build fortifications, can suppress enemies, can spot enemies, can build stationary weapons, can repair vehicles, has infinite ammo, supplies ammo, can also attack
Assualt - can attack, can destroy tank
took me a while to be okay with medic reviving having an animation lol
yeah gives them a proper reason to throw smoke on dead bodies
BF3 was hilariously broken with revives but i loved it all the same.
Buddy revive is also 😩
yeas BFV was really on a roll with a lot of new design choices. now the whole attrition thing... grrr... but still BFV had so much good
ive been doing buddy revive a lot more frequently its so good
Ngl, Bf5 is better looking and designed than 1
attrition couldve been neat but them deciding to give primaries only like 3 mags and secondaries 7 was stupid
It’s probably because I grew up on bf1942 and bf2 that I prefer pc bf
bf5 and bf1 are of equal beauty to me. there are just a few things i would keep from bf1 going into bfv (like giving grenades on support resupply)
Man I fricken love bf2042
BFV without spread to recoil conversion would've been nice. It didn't even launch like that, that was a thing they did post-launch.
It’s not perfect by any means but I really enjoy it
it depends on the game for me. BF3/BF4/2042, i prefer on PC. BF1, BFV i prefer on console
yeah they were way too wishy washy with the gunplay patches
Bf1 is nice, but my god is the whole "everything is destroyed and burnt" thing fucking annoying
Support on bf5 doesn't really have the luxury of going as aggressive as assault and medic.
what like walking over stuff and catching on fire? haha
Depends
oh hi way.
You dont know true fun until you flank the enemy with a Mg34/42 and start mowing down enemies as they try entering or retreating
The guns in the class like the bar and the fg42 allow it yes. But their longer sprint out times than assault rifles and smaller mags limit what one can do.
Hey silver.
they definitely wanted support to be more hold the line-y with the mmg/lmg mechanics
Also the M1897 is so fucking good
Yeah
I've played the game long enough to understand what goes on.
i like it being designed this way, with a unique CQC gun or two to toss it up if one so desires
you know what didn't make much sense to me in BFV
I like to do what the Germans did irl
AT rifles.
O__O
why?
In assualt, run up with the assualts with my machine gun, find a position, mow down everyone and support friendlies
they didn't even do much to tanks.
all anyone ever used 'em for was oneshotting infantry.
Or flank the enemies, find a good spot, mow down everyone
mmg/lmgs couldve been really good early on but the shitty bipod mechanics turned me off of it for most of Vs lifespan
Ah yeah Bf5 bipods are a lil shit
Lmgs are also useless
meme weapons like the liberator pistol most likely, but more usable
but i kinda liked their inclusion
Mmgs were great for power as long as you could deal with the butchered mobility.
However for the most part. Things like the bren gun was your best anchor.
i remember early on the only really viable way to use m/lmgs was to prone on your back because bipods were shit and terrain clipping would force you outta position
Oh yeah early bf5 bipods were horrid.
Bren Gun is shit
i remember the big sighs of relief when dice finally showcased fixing them
No fucking perioheal vision
Slow as shit
Shitty damage
Takes up 70% of your screen
30 round mag
bren gun is a fun meme
Arm a 3x onto bren.
it's not a good gun but it's a fun meme
Beam people.
It was a good gun.
It was one of the more niche yet potent medium ranged machine guns.
the only beam weapon im familiar with is the vgo because its all the hackers used lol
You mean the Lewis gun?
I love love love loooiooove the VGO but the mag is so small
Reckon I've played with the bren long enough to know how it feels!
i was one of those pushy supports with the fg42
shame its mag size was so small
Fg42 based.
but man i love the fg42
Man I loved the Bren
As long as you distanced your self from encounters enough but remained aggressive it was a great gun.
Mg34 my beloved
670 RPM with lots of control. It's a popular choice for people who knew what they're doing when it came to support.
Mg34>mg42
Honestly idk why but i have more fun with the Mg34
Good vision, good control, good accuracy, good reload, good damage, good magazine size
Whenever the situation demanded it I would use the VGO or the mg42.
Bren.
The thing with MMG's is that I often questioned why would I use them when with an LMG I have more mobility. Which 95% of the time was the case.
And I think I ran light bolt for the memes on the MG42 as a result.
Cause I never used it seriously.
I hate LMGs
mmgs were good if you knew how to position yourself
Bad magazine size with worse damage and theyre inaccurate without a bipod
but you kinda had to depend on your team to hold your flanks
Thats why you build fortifications
Ge tthe sandbag windows and thsts it for the enemy
Not really that inaccurate as long as you knew what you were doing.
Twisted steel has overpowered fortifications for the Americans on breajthrough
Especially on the bridge
You didnt have to rebuild sandbags on trenches too which eas great
the bridge was always a pain in the ass if your team didnt know what they were doing
and even when your team does know what theyre doing
Holy shit
Twisted steel
Setting up the sandbag wall
Suppressing enemies with the M1919A6 as the assualts push back
such is why 2042 makes me sad (and constantly 180'ing out of paranoia)
if i was attacking the bridge on twisted steel i pulled out every explosive i could onto the assault and just hammered the walls down
maybe piat mortar them too
Yeah
But have fun pushing down in the swamp
If someoen bukds the trench, bye bye
You literally cant get past the trenches and dirt mounds
i can count the number of times ive seen a serious push from the swamps on my hands
Sorry im a oldie bf fan, but a newbie to 2042.
Are these squad chat channels game chat or doscord usually? Im on ps5 and not realistically able to discord at same time
everyone wanted in on that meatgrinder
😩
Uh to be honest sometimes people don't want to talk.
But if there are comms, It's usually over on discord.
I’ve fallen in love with the ghostmaker+explosive bolt
cringe
I play a lot of support and flag capture it’s just so good for a backup roll
Whatever
Yup
hehe
Once you take the bridge on twisted steel, how do you take the swamps?
Tbh most games i dont like chat if im not with friends. But i just find bf to be a game where live comm makes it that much more enjoyable. Ofc theres those who cannot speak, due to their environment.
yeaaaa baby
Yeah that's fair Slippry.
Honestly.
When discord is available to use on PS you should be able to find more people to talk to.
A surprisingly good combo
that's cool
Almost looks like rabbit ears
Soflam should be able to mark stealth choppers imo
with laser guided munitions
I’m assuming you’re kidding
I mean I’d rather just have aa missiles or a repair tool but I’d consider soflam if that were the case
not at all BF 2042, call of duty-weapon smithing, arma 3-mathematics, war thunder vehicle-penetration mechanics of course Mortal Kombat dismemberment effects all fit in a downscale Battlefield scenario
im not talking planet side 2 maps scale just BF with all those goodies??
Interesting. I’ll be honest the only fps game I ever play is the battlefield entries. I don’t touch any others. Except halo 2 with a buddy a long time ago.

same, Battlefield has everything I need pretty much
i dont play them i just like testing around in them for my Beloved battlefield
what would fps be for PC users to have all of this implemented not for console
keep everything the same besides new skins for CONSULTANT
are the liquidator skins any good or worth getting
I like the balance between arcade and realism
the sand box experience is just unmatched.
It’s really good. Unfortunately I think the series peaked at 2 but that may be nostalgia speaking. I did really enjoy 3 too though
💯
reach on ONI: Sword Base was good you can co-op with Type-48 Light Assault Gun Carriage using it as artillery across the map was fun
Remember in bf3 you could actually use artillery. Damn that was fun
Or in 2 you could call in artillery strikes. But the opposing team could sabotage the artillery units
Battlefield 2: Modern Combat?
Nah before that
Was the pc one. Modern combat was console only
Refractor engine before we got frostbite
Way less glitchy imo
Modern combat was renderware but I never played it
Damn I feel old
I’m well into my 30s these days
i was caught up playing king kong in 2005 i never got around to 2
Do tell
its better then modern combat??
Well I can’t say for certain but honestly bf2 was the bees knees
The cats meow, If you will
Are we not able to post pics in the channel?
I cant even gif
Wtf mods
maybe they wanted to cut back on spam ??
what did the mec look like in BF2
woah sick edit BF Bros the mec are so cool is the game still playable ??
I hope they add Militia too in the future, i get why they wouldn't do to offense but they could put may be offensive to some viewers
I hope they add it back again
The war in Ukraine has really put a damper on the realism of fighting the ruskies. Not really equal warfare more like one sided bloodbath
Game is playable with a mod for custom servers
I own the disc with all the expansions too it’s a damn shame dice shut it down. Has a decent player base too
but that is saved for a later date if so, the update can be called Gorilla warfighters, equipment plasma ball grenade when they add, again loll gorilla carbine, madsen M-50 (skin modified) with the hunters add that get a weapon as to own which is George Foe's rotary action shotgun... rifle with it the new (hunter (his name) gets tree stand gadget and new map location grenada??
When orbital rework
i hope thats not offensive??
1983 invasion of Grenada took place holy moly
It is now my birthday
happy B-day ruby.....
Why ….
??? exposure never got a rework
love how it says i have 1000 kills on my ak but in game its mastered. fucking lovely tracking

Rule 10 Do not harass users who express enjoyment for the franchise. You're free to express your opinion (positive or negative) in a constructive manner, however disrupting the chat and abusing users who have their personal views won't be tolerated. Constructive criticism & feedback is always encouraged, spreading toxicity while providing no useful, constructive feedback is not allowed. Our full stance on this type of conduct can be found here: #server-news message
living up to your name
By telling people to stop and downplaying people with the "imagine playing 2042" you know what you're doing
i am not saying you're abusing/harassing people. i'm saying you're living up to your name, hatemachine.
I get if it continues for like 30 mins but is that seriously considered abuse now lol
no
Imagine playing 2042
but it's still living up to their name
Better to stop things before it actually starts.
Considering the name it's clear it'll go that path
saving people money?
I kid (kinda) but the joke was right there
to be fair, you've literally just showed up and you're being like this immediately.
I don't think it's unreasonable.
Mf really called himself hatemachine07
I mean they didn't break rule 10
Certainly didn't disrupt chat, since nobody was talking lol
well you being like this immediately is a dead giveaway that you're gonna be an irritating prick about it
see
Did you not read the entirety of it lol
To be clear mate if you do it a lot for and extended period you will get slapped for just clogging the channel up with arguments
I mean you 3 just started arguing out of nowhere
i think "imagine playing 2042" in the 2042 channel can be reasonably assumed as an inflammatory statement
well i feel like "don't be an irritating prick randomly" shouldn't be a server rule, that's just basic common courtesy, man.
i offered my assessment, feel free to acknowledge it intellectually B)
I think bringing up rule 10 the moment you see offhand remark at 2042’s expense is kinda pathetic when you could just ignore it unless it continues for awhile but it is best to move on
As if anyone in this server will be considered a saint
Boins amounts should’ve carried over from bfv change my mind

It would've made it too easy to grind 
They were carried over, just upgraded and turned to a discord meme
When did we get
?
Hatemachine07 character arc
They should replace all bp tiers with boins
