battlefield-2042

[solid imp]

hm, I was just in game a few minutes ago no issues.. I wonder if maybe EU servers?

[arctic grove]

i play eu

i want to play

[honest wave]

I seemingly can't get through any match without the game freezing or crashing.

[solid imp]

downdetector doesn't have very many hits on 2042

[royal swan]

I ain't playing until they fix that fucking freezing

And the crashes

[solid imp]

Something occurred to a few of us in my group... default MyDocs location where game caches are stored is in scope for OneDrive sync, so we thought maybe there's a r/w conflict. One guy uninstalled OneDrive completely and it worked for a time and then some more crashing. Then he removed GstRender.Dx12Enabled 1 from PROFSAVE_profile and it worked for awhile before crashing again. Rebooted and he launched/played several games without crashing

[royal swan]

My game has been crashing more now than it ever had

[arctic grove]

Just wait till the game gets fixed and play something else

[solid imp]

Not saying that will work, it is entirely possible that it's something else entirely

[arctic grove]

i dont have freezing or crashing but i had bug now 4 months that it kicks me back in lobby when i join match

it happens like 6 times if i play 10 matches

[solid imp]

I've had that, but not at that frequency 😦

[arctic grove]

i have it with xbox series x and ps5

i want playyyyy

🤬

[slate meadow]

man its so bad that ive gone back to using ym pc for music and youtube instead of bf2042 ffs

[robust ember]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[pure frost]

Playing bf1/bfv instead

Weird playing an older bf game that loads properly

[tardy stump]

trying reinstalling origin now

lmao

[pure frost]

Lol

[tardy stump]

i am curious to what the problem is

[pure frost]

Hopefully they figure it out in the near future. Kind of getting annoyed with playing on low settings

[tardy stump]

nope not that

[royal trail]

i want to try if the game freeze less with origin than the ea app but i cant find anywhere to download origin anymore

only thing thats available for me is the ea app

[slate meadow]

Origin doesn't exist anymore right ?

[royal trail]

i cant find it

so maybe not

[slate meadow]

Like I think there is mirrored downloads but nothing official

[next onyx]

I still have the .exe file for it.

And it still works for me.

[copper spindle]

THey switched over to EA i think

Im not sure

I heard something about it for the PC on twitter

[still vault]

It does. The Steam version still uses it

[royal trail]

i had to format and reinstall my computer since a windows update got stuck and messed up windows totally

so i dont have any old origin installers

rip

[still vault]

https://answers.ea.com/t5/Origin-Client-Web-Technical/Downloading-and-installing-Origin-Windows-and-Mac/m-p/11915666/thread-id/134033

[royal trail]

thanks!

[still vault]

https://tenor.com/view/hat-tip-gif-11048773

[slate meadow]

But do you not need to have the game through steam for it to work like if you bought the game as a EA key doe sthat still work

[still vault]

I don't know if the stand alone Origin client can still play this game since it's an online game.

[arctic grove]

Alr, thx

[little cedar]

Yup game is still unbalanced. Tryhards vs casuals always. AA and RPG spam. Nice to see balancing hasn't changed...

[slate meadow]

is there a fix yet pleaase 😩

i havent mackay zipped to a tank and blown 5 people up with c5 for 6 days

[eager spire]

"tryhards vs casuals always" to be fair that's kind of the natural order of things, they can't really fix that.

[vivid nacelle]

the lag is very persistent today

[topaz field]

My sources at Mi6 and NSA say we get season 3 news tomorrow

[placid echo]

[little cedar]

Why can't BF have casual and ranked matches? tired of playing matches one sided. Solo games are way more fun to me

[eager spire]

because having ranked matches on the scale that Battlefield usually runs in would not work, and would result in exactly the same thing you're seeing now.

[little cedar]

lower it back to 32v32 then. 128 players is too much

[eager spire]

Even ranked matches at 64 players is a bit much. There's a reason attempts at competitive modes by DICE before have been 5v5.

[little cedar]

Then limit amount of RPGs and AA missiles each squad can have to 1-2

[eager spire]

they're not gonna do that.

[little cedar]

they need to. until then infantry only modes are way better

[eager spire]

they're not gonna do that.

[slate meadow]

is that adam wests cousin wild?

[eager spire]

they're not gonna make infantry only modes any better.

[slate meadow]

im guessing that the ffix wont be tonight anyway now the devs go home at 5.00

[chilly dove]

ACR in the arms of soldiers glitch has been reported right? it's wild out here

[fossil trench]

DICE leaking new content in their own trailers

Oml lmao

Looks like there’s a new tank coming

[woven acorn]

how long has the PC version been unplayable for? since the update?

[fossil trench]

They posted a video for the M16 and also showed off a new tank in the background

Omg lmfao

[topaz field]

dude that leak was on purpose cuz no way lmfao

[fossil trench]

It was deleted

[topaz field]

that tank will have APS i bet

[fossil trench]

Yeah most likely

[topaz field]

i was thinking we would get the HT-95

[ancient peak]

New tank?

[topaz field]

hope we get portal version of Final stand

[fossil trench]

Look on Twitter

[slate meadow]

nope since the 18th so 6 days now

[woven acorn]

seriously??

[fossil trench]

Dice appears to have leaked their own content

[woven acorn]

they do it all the time, its nothing new

[slate meadow]

lol they deleted the post

[woven acorn]

they did it with battlefront too

[slate meadow]

https://twitter.com/Battlefield/status/1584591124282413056?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^tweet

[ancient peak]

Huh. Looks like a roided up Sheridan

That leaked tank

[calm bison]

What trailer

[woven acorn]

its been taken down now but it was a video for the m16. its on reddit

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/ycik2h/new_tank/

looks like a railgun tank

[topaz field]

its prob one of those special call in tanks similar how bf1/bfv

[calm bison]

Yeah I checked Reddit

Thing looks fun

The gun reminds me of the Blitztrager event in WoT

Actual rail gun

[woven acorn]

i just wish i could play the game without it crashing on pc

[topaz field]

you mean the game freezes when you load firs ttime?

[tame cobalt]

Railgun tank

Dope

[woven acorn]

whenever i load into a game it kicks me after a few seconds

[sharp marten]

What did dice leak?

[tame cobalt]

Final stand 2.0 finally happening

Now where mechs?

[woven acorn]

just a new tank in their trailer for the m16 coming to the game

[tame cobalt]

A new tank with a railgun

[sharp marten]

Oh fuck I just saw it

[eager spire]

is the new tank gonna have APS

that would be the real revolution

[tame cobalt]

We finna shoot some lasers

[sharp marten]

They plan on adding aps to all the tanks

[eager spire]

yeah how long ago did they say that

they said that after adding the EBLC Ram that had APS, didn't they?

[sharp marten]

Awhile ago but didn’t they also say the vehicle Category is getting reworked next season

[topaz field]

oh dang sorry to hear that man

[sharp marten]

I’m just looking at the tank is it a new tank or new attachment?

[ancient peak]

Wait is this a new M16 coming?

[sharp marten]

No

[calm bison]

M16 is already in AOW, we’re talking a leaked tank

[topaz field]

it would be nice if they just revamp all the portal weapons for season 3.2 or 4.0

[sharp marten]

Oh no that’s definitely a new tank

[calm bison]

People on Reddit think it’s a skin for the T28 or M1A5

Bruh look at the chassis

[next onyx]

As bad as this sounds. I don't think they should straight up give the tanks an APS.

[tropic egret]

it is just me that game keeps crashing most of the times i try to join a match? also if i do ALT+TAB?

[next onyx]

They should fix their inherit issues before judging weather or not giving them the APS.

[queen trout]

Just got the 2042 cheap. Is the pass worth it?

[next onyx]

Depends.

Do you want the stuff in it?

[queen trout]

Good question

I gotta see for myself

It updating rn

[eager spire]

I think they should because tanks in every other game have had that and them not having it shouldn't have been an issue for this long anyway.

Tanks are weak as shit in this game anyway.

[queen trout]

Fr?

[next onyx]

What in the fuck the new tank looks like the A-8 TIGER from 2142.

[eager spire]

fr

[next onyx]

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/battlefield/images/f/f7/A8_Tiger_BF2142.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20101018061709

[tropic egret]

yep

[chilly dove]

no idea why tanks take so long to reload in 2042. horrid

[next onyx]

To a degree.

[low timber]

Could be a prototype

[next onyx]

The new tank looks like a Bradley crossed with a tank.

[tiny python]

They working on a fix for the severed dm7 skin? Scope being off

[next onyx]

Yeah very definitely.

[low timber]

Like BF4 Last stand had a lot of prototypes

So the new leaked tank (if not just a T28 skin) could be a railgun tank as Rorsch mk1 exists

[tame cobalt]

they finally leaning into some 2142 connections... now where mech

[next onyx]

I thought the new tank skin was for the m1a5.

The image is the A-8 Tiger from 2142.

[low timber]

M1A3 is a wide but short tank, T28 is a slim but tall

[next onyx]

Also in that video I think the tank fired a god damn canister shell.

Yeah I was looking at the topside, The Abrams has a bit of a more angled turret.

[queen trout]

Yes on bf4 and 5 them vehicles where cheese

[tropic egret]

guys, can someone help me out?~
it is just me that game keeps crashing most of the times i try to join a match? also if i do ALT+TAB?

[queen trout]

Planes got on my damn nerves

[next onyx]

Maybe so but the APS will just be a band aid fix and tanks to their core will still be shit. If the core of them were ironed out maybe they could actually do something with it.

[fiery solar]

Arizona heat proof vehicle

[eager spire]

Tanks not really having any defensive option is a core issue, on top of everything else wrong with them.

[next onyx]

If they had faster turret traversal and acceleration with a buff to thermal smoke (Invincibility to Lis's passive) then they can actually properly think it out.

[low timber]

Just removing the aim delay on first person would help a lot.

[tardy tree]

theres a new tank coming out?

or were you talking about something else

[next onyx]

Tank talk.

[tardy tree]

i just watched the video

that tank looks fucking awesome

i hope it comes out and they didnt just trash it

since it was in a s2 trailer

[tame cobalt]

[tardy tree]

if s3 doesnt pop off im coming for you

[fiery solar]

There was a new Rajiv

Tank* where the fuck my phone get rajiv from

[sharp marten]

Tbh I was almost positive they’d add the Abraham X

[paper solstice]

Are tanks good, like feel nice in this game? I wouldn't know- there's never a tank 🥲

[inner roost]

Anyone know where you can find the video of the tank

[fiery solar]

Apparently the s2 trailer

[ancient peak]

When I do get a tank, it’s kind of rough. You can’t really be the spearhead in a push on an objective, even if fully manned. If you play it safe you can perform, and with a buddy in life comms you can tear things up. But those games aren’t exactly the majority

[median path]

i think they forgot about the hover tanks from bf4

[topaz field]

ahhaa

[paper solstice]

That sounds more like a sniper than it does a tank lol

[ancient peak]

Well when everyone can sport a recoilless or C5, you can go from 100 to 0 before you even have a chance to react

[paper solstice]

And yet we can't kill a helicopter- I swear those guys get like 50/0 in games lol

[ancient peak]

I’ve gotten pretty good with Lis. Takes a while but I manage to down him only after he’s 30/0

[solid imp]

lis is awesome, but I can't help but think of this bff moment 😄

[fresh mango]

did they fix the freezign problem yet?

[sharp mortar]

is somehting wrong...i cant find any active servers

[worthy elbow]

Happy Monday 2042 degenerates

Anyone have the red screen issue?

[chilly jacinth]

your game is possessed

[loud root]

It actually looks like it when it happens

like another dimension haha

[sharp marten]

Bro got the new season 3 color pack

[graceful island]

How slow is the drone now with C5 on it?

[edgy oriole]

very

[slate meadow]

Game won't be fixed until Wednesday I'm thinking they might know what the issue is and haven't said yet or they may actually still have no idea what the issue is and are still trying to pinpoint it

[graceful island]

I am up for that challenge, I am going to try it still.

Was fun while it lasted lol

I am still wondering how the BF BC2 drone made it past production lol

I guess enough pilots and tankers got pissed lol

I certainly enjoyed C5 and drone tanks

While it lasted

[dark lily]

Is b2042 fun game?

When did it came out

[graceful island]

A year ago already was the Beta

[dark lily]

@graceful island

[graceful island]

After all the fixes, it's a halfway decent game now

[stiff pollen]

NEW RAILGUN TANK

OMFG

[chilly jacinth]

huh

[cyan trout]

Lol 'halfway decent'

[tiny mauve]

It's pretty fun, but not pay full price fun.

[royal swan]

Battlefield leaked tank

Bro we are totally going to get railed

[next onyx]

I can't wait to get railed by a tank.

[quaint vector]

I can't wait to get railed by a tank while I'm in the railgun tank.

[paper solstice]

Hot

[low timber]

If it is a completely new vehicle, when would we get it? S3 pass?
We did get stealth helis in S1 pass and the Ram in S2 pass.

[quaint vector]

Time will tell

[low timber]

Now I need someone with a nickname of “Time” to tell us.

[next onyx]

[low timber]

You know I was debating that should I DM you to ask you to do that

[spring matrix]

i love bf2042 its gotten better but having no one to play with on xbox series sucks. I like to squad up. it's gotten way better with the updates.

[sharp marten]

If I shoot someone with that rail gun I better see a red mist I’ll pay extra for the red mist

[sharp marten]

[quaint vector]

[fading wharf]

[arctic grove]

Please help

Im playing bf5 and i just tried spawning in a Hachi and now im just stuck

Wtf do i do

[mossy badge]

[fading wharf]

the best one is with WITH THIS GUN I CAN CONTROL DAY AND NIGHT

[fading wharf]

Who's gonna say it

[arctic grove]

i just quit

what the fuck

why cant i use my japanese rocket tank to commit war crimes

[cosmic sequoia]

lmao

[sharp marten]

[fading wharf]

in terms of japanese rocket tank there is no japenese rocket tank for u

[next onyx]

Not my first time.

[sharp marten]

Siri how do I ban someone from a discord Im not moderating

[cosmic sequoia]

the next map better not have a single fucking shipping container or a boat

[sharp marten]

Or what

[fading wharf]

https://tenor.com/view/power-lord-of-the-rings-lotr-gif-9197188

[sharp marten]

What will you do

[cosmic sequoia]

i go angy mode

i'll change my name to

[sharp marten]

ANGY MODE

[cosmic sequoia]

"no more shipping containers!!"

fuck you preston

i just locked in a jet instead o fmy chopper

ur fault

[sharp marten]

[fading wharf]

he wouldnt

[mental delta]

https://tenor.com/view/unlimited-power-star-wars-gif-10270127

[gloomy otter]

Getting railed by a tank is fairly uncommon in 2042, but getting railed by a MAV is pretty usual in the 2042 rush servers

[cosmic sequoia]

in the new battlefield genre, we only use surplus amounts of transport vehicles

[sharp marten]

we just throw transports at the other team to win

[cosmic sequoia]

ya

[gloomy otter]

Whenever there is a rush in caspian border, I usually stay at the toll booth and watch my team and the enemy team playing NFS far away

[cosmic sequoia]

that's 99% of condor pilots

[fading wharf]

[mental delta]

[sharp marten]

I’m ngl hemperor idk why but that angy mode thing got me pretty good

[gloomy otter]

Why do hovercrafts look like mechanical abalone

[cosmic sequoia]

😛 right back at you, cuz there is nothing I really can do

except sit in here on discord

[arctic grove]

i jist want breaktrhoigh without pacific maps because i have no japanese skins
also playing as japan is impossible to be historically accurate

[cosmic sequoia]

... and play battlefield sadpepe

[arctic grove]

also pacific maps suck compared to europe maps

[cosmic sequoia]

amen

there's one pacific map where it's like 1 tank on each side

[sharp marten]

Everyone gangsta till the railTank pulls up

[cosmic sequoia]

that one is pretty good

idk idrm the pacific maps. sure the europe maps just play way better

[fading wharf]

technicly u could just wear a japanese ww2 uniform while playing the game tho

[cosmic sequoia]

the one map that actually blows huge donkey cock is the normandy beach map

[arctic grove]

Pacific maps be like: you got the choice of a overly big map that allows campers more than devastation, you got the map where the americans have tank after tank and japan has nothing

[arctic grove]

pacific storm.

[cosmic sequoia]

yeah

its pretty bad

I play conquest tho

[arctic grove]

defending is fucking inpossible

assualt is the best

[cosmic sequoia]

what's that in, rush? breakthrough?

[arctic grove]

like you get no planes or tanks in the last sectors

[muted ocean]

Is there a way to save a class setup ?

[arctic grove]

last sector you have 1 tank

1 tank when defending a... Tank depot

[fading wharf]

name me one japanese gun

[cosmic sequoia]

lmaoo the irony

[arctic grove]

Type 97

[arctic grove]

And theres fucking shermans in that depot

SO WHY DONT SHERMANS SPAWN

[cosmic sequoia]

lmaoo

[fading wharf]

[cosmic sequoia]

I love the map Arras on conquest

it's so good

graphically at least

[arctic grove]

If youre gonna make the shermans so much better than the japanese tanks at least let them spawn on the depot with destroyed shermans

[arctic grove]

Devastation

[cosmic sequoia]

that map is good too

[arctic grove]

Best breakthrough map

[cosmic sequoia]

I love it on conquest, holding a choke point with a tiger

so much fun

[next onyx]

Rotterdam and Devastation were good maps.

[cosmic sequoia]

Twisted steel is also just a genius map

on conquest that is

[arctic grove]

Rotterdam is eh

No assualt tank till like middle of the map i believe

[slate meadow]

Way you think dice will give me a free bfv cdkey as I can't play 2042 😂

[fading wharf]

rotterdam

[cosmic sequoia]

bf5 is basically free if you look hard for a key

[arctic grove]

Also snipers everywhere

[next onyx]

You get a tank on the first sector.

[arctic grove]

For the defenders i think?

Which is good

[next onyx]

Can't say snipers are an issue for me.

Defenders get tanks on the last sector.

If I remember correctly.

[arctic grove]

You must not go on the bridge much huh

[next onyx]

I do.

I go everywhere I can.

[arctic grove]

Oh

Honestly the last sector at the foot of the bridge is the best especially with fortifications

[fading wharf]

imagine u are trying to rebuild a bridge in rotterdam, u are free meat

[low timber]

You make your own way in life

[arctic grove]

Barbed wire is fucking overpowered with those sandbag forts

[fading wharf]

[next onyx]

[arctic grove]

As soon as you put doen barbed wire you can easily choke out the enemy

Unless theyre brain has grown past the brain stem and they use explosives

[fading wharf]

imma hit it with a V-1

https://tenor.com/view/big-brain-markiplier-gif-14835823

[arctic grove]

Fortification destroyed +8
Enemy hit +37
Vehicle hit+1

[slate meadow]

How is the hacking problem like in bfv nowadays last time I played it was pretty bad but maybe they have all gave up since 2042

[fading wharf]

Classic

[arctic grove]

Dice explaining how the soldier with no armor survives a panzerfaust exploding right next to them and only takes 57 damage

[fading wharf]

my theorie is they will move on to mw2

[fading wharf]

me blasting a fullsmg mag on enemies in bf5 (smgs dont make any dmg)

[next onyx]

A good offensive on the station is what is needed to win.

Sturmtiger commandeers who know what they're doing can help a lot.

[arctic grove]

you can easily turn the tide of the battle if you go recon with spawn point and place it behind enemy point

[next onyx]

But they need just as much support.

If you're lucky that is.

[fading wharf]

me in tank watching rpg rockets raining down the brigde by assaults

[cosmic sequoia]

What would be the best way to practice using Tow missiles?

[ivory bridge]

first time playing in 3 months game feels way better,,,,,, even though 4/5 games i played crashed immediately, crashfield 2042 is becoming more complete by the month, hopefully we have a working game by 2023

[remote kiln]

sens adjustments

[cosmic sequoia]

Sorry, I should've been more specific, what is the best place to do that. Jump into like a Solo/Co-op and do it that way? or is there an easier way?

[remote kiln]

no there isn't an easier way to use tow missiles you need to get used to enemy vehicle/air rotations

[arctic grove]

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/ycd9cd/c4_jeep_in_2015_vs_2021/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb

[remote kiln]

so jump in a public lobby start firing then go from there

they are far from easy and there's no easy route

[cosmic sequoia]

Yeah, I just don't want to be waiting on a reload.

I don't think you understand my question whatsoever lmao.

[next onyx]

Got some mates who learned to TOW missiles into helicopters back at 4 and witnessed one do it in person.

[remote kiln]

I do, you just won't learn anything in the process

[cosmic sequoia]

Can I make a Portal lobby or something and turn off reload times and just jump into shooting them?

[next onyx]

You need to do it multiple times.

[remote kiln]

solo/coop isn't useful for learning tow missiles

[cosmic sequoia]

I mean, the main thing is learning how the tow missile moves

[remote kiln]

and the reload is what factors in to your timing

[next onyx]

There isn't a way to modify the reload/re arm time of the Tow either.

[cosmic sequoia]

Dang

[next onyx]

You'll just need to scrape by.

[cosmic sequoia]

I'll probably try to find an empty portal lobby and then go from there lol. The tow missiles just seem to move so quickly through the air

[topaz field]

hardlines was the shittttttttttt

[arctic grove]

YESSSSS

[topaz field]

wish the game came out around 2020 though would've been a massive hit!

[arctic grove]

We need an Updated version of hardline to run on current gen

[cosmic sequoia]

They need to make the driving better in 2042

lol

[arctic grove]

Imagine playing it on a 3090 or series x or a ps5

[remote kiln]

hardline stans are the funniest

[arctic grove]

Ima hardline 1/3/4 stan 5 in terms of maps and content was bad except the pacific maps.

[cosmic sequoia]

bruh

some of the europe maps are amazing

ill fight you over that. ready your coolest tech deck

[arctic grove]

The bridge one i admit was cool.

ill give the norway map a pass too

[cosmic sequoia]

Arras is great too >:l

[arctic grove]

Arras was mid

[cosmic sequoia]

well

ill give ytou that

[umbral island]

I wish we just could get an urban map in bf2042

[cosmic sequoia]

but it looks great

[umbral island]

Like New York

[next onyx]

?

I miss hardline. Fun game.

Had a lot of issues but had a lot of soul.

[cosmic sequoia]

I have 2 memories of that game and one is like a multiplayer map in a neighborhood or some shit with houses, and another is the sky scrapers. Zooming around the city in cars like its NFS lol

[remote kiln]

and that's why they're the funniest

can never make up their minds if it was a bad game or not (it was)

[tiny mauve]

It was fun, but it was also a bf game in name only

[edgy crown]

Did DICE ever say or intend to make the portal weapons in AoW to fit AoW? Attachments and skins etc. Or are they just gonna leave it as is

[shell ermine]

Al Marj, Provence, Panzerstorm, Arras, Mercury, Twisted Steel, all great non-Pacific maps

Honestly Provence is one of the best maps in the series.

[eager spire]

It wasn't a bad game.

[topaz field]

nope it was those hardcore cry baby battilefield folks

this isnt battlefield cry cry cry

hardlines basically birthed WZ if you ask me

[eager spire]

ok

[topaz field]

🤣

[lone wren]

Hi all

[slate meadow]

Hi 👋

[lone wren]

I have not played 2042 in some time

[arctic grove]

2042 needs more better shooting animations ads and hip fire

[lone wren]

Hipfire better

[lament plank]

Wow I finally got orbital. My first game of the day. But of course naturally I get out in the team that is under 100 tickets, while the enemy team has over 400. Thanks dice.

I didn’t even make it to a flag in my tank before the match ended. So glad I spent more time loading in than playing

[arctic grove]

Battlefield Moment

[lone wren]

I'm having those issues with other battlefield titles

Loading is becoming a issue

Anyone else having loading issues

[solar obsidian]

if you are having loading issues in multiple bf titles, you might want to look up the health of your ssd

[tiny mauve]

I love defending on orbital and having the rocket wipe my team while we're obviously already losing...

[lone wren]

Probs

But it is a new pc

[arctic grove]

DICE definitely play tested the map before releasing it.

[solar obsidian]

dont matter, stuff can break, or you might have something on your drive using all its performance

[lone wren]

True

[solar obsidian]

and most important

you have the games installed on a ssd right ?

[lone wren]

Probs I might of accidentally installed games onto it

I will look onto it this evening

[solar obsidian]

good good,

[lone wren]

Loading on my old crappy laptop was much better despite it being 3 years old

But sadly I had to get my new pc due to the apparent death of my laptop

I needed a pc for my class

[arctic grove]

Hmmm

BF1 and V had some really nice first and third person anims

[pure frost]

Playing those right now

Wish I could play 2042 for 5 min tho

[honest comet]

man i miss the details in the game

graphics is nice but theres not much details on guns

and other stuff

[austere dirge]

i miss the first person melee animations

that was one of the things that sold me on the series back when bf3 came out lol

[proud jewel]

I have bf2042 through both origin and steam. When I try to launch the game it never gets further than the easyanticheat, sometimes with a "we noticed your computer is currently offline" message. I have tried everything I could find on google. Does anyone know how to fix it? Its on my new rog scar 15 laptop

[arctic grove]

Your launcher on Origin is offline

[proud jewel]

its online, has a "go offline" option in the dropdown menu

[arctic grove]

Ok then it’s not Origin..

Is it on WI-FI?

[proud jewel]

ethernet, 900+ Mbps

[arctic grove]

I know it’s silly but have you verified your files

This one is new. So if I’m unable to help I apologize but I can offer to help you find a solution

[proud jewel]

firewalls/antivirus down, multiple reinstalls, everything admin mode

[arctic grove]

multiple reinstalls?

[proud jewel]

used revo to uninstall

[slate meadow]

@remote kiln tell me your secrets to managing to get the game to work 🤣

[proud jewel]

using older client since the ea app doesnt let me download anything for some reason

[arctic grove]

Do you run EasyAnticheat under admin

also EA app has been reported as buggy

[remote kiln]

firewall down
wrong move, you need to allow it to bypass

[arctic grove]

If you have the EA app and Origin downloaded they could conflict

[remote kiln]

your issue disappears

[proud jewel]

bought steam version just to find out it stupidly needs origin so not sure the point of it.

[remote kiln]

seem to be the only one on earth it's working for

[proud jewel]

will go ahead and try that

[violet meteor]

[proud jewel]

what exactly should i allow through

[slate meadow]

Literally my exact thoughts I want to know what you are doing different to other people I think your part of the Illuminati or something

[proud jewel]

origin, anticheat, both?

[remote kiln]

them all, they all have to be allowed through the firewall on your private or public route

[remote kiln]

I've done nothing different since the game updated

[pure frost]

Yeah hopefully they come out with an update to allow us to play the game for more than 5 min

[remote kiln]

I have noticed there's a lot of pc folk in game so it's not a universal issue, rather odd

[pure frost]

I did the cache deletion route but still experience the crash

[remote kiln]

the reports seem to be heavily Nvidia related which if so it's probably the new drivers, seen sparse reports on the other side

[proud jewel]

i have a 3070 ti in my laptop

allowing them through the firewall didnt work

wonder if i could/should do a nvidia driver downgrade

it works on my desktop.....wonder if i should update the driver on there to see if it screws it up

[slate meadow]

Full amd build here 😩

[proud jewel]

doesnt necessarily mean anything but the driver update on my gtx1080 desktop didnt break it

[limpid pond]

Okay so I can only hit level 1000 with piak

There's apparently no levels after that

[arctic grove]

auuuuughhhh

[remote kiln]

my kd is just too high they couldn't let me not in

[atomic egret]

Hey Dice, FIX THE FUCKIN SFAR!

[lilac dust]

I'm not usually the evil type ... but I gotta admit it felt pretty good when after my squadmate repeatedly ignored my revive despite being in a safe area every time, they always ran, so when they finally went down near me and begged for a revive I pulled out my melee weapon and slashed them in the face 😈

[atomic egret]

LoL

[arctic grove]

I’d feel too bad to do that

All of my squad mates love to spam my ear off when they’re right next to 3 enemies watching their body

[remote kiln]

you mean the ADS issue?

[arctic grove]

SFAR casually having two of the most annoying bugs ever

the scar still has that bug?

I Never see it

It chooses its victims carefully

Clearly

10hrs left for me to do 3 weekly challenges and get 70 ribbons for the liquidator event

event items aren’t that cool tbh

This is why you never procrastinate guys

[arctic grove]

I’m getting me moneys worth outta the game, might as well get them so I can flex them like a year later

[lilac dust]

Make sure you're running falk, with an ammo box and a prox sensor. Go ham helping the team and you'll be done in no time

[arctic grove]

Not much flexing can be done if the person doesn’t care about the skins

Everyone will love my epic dozer and M1A5 skin

[arctic grove]

Noted, I’ll definitely do that

[lilac dust]

The dozer one ain't too shabby IMO. Nothing crazy, but it's enough of a skin for a friend who comes back to the game to be like "Ooh where'd ya get that from?"

[arctic grove]

Despite knowing what awaits me I’m about to use the SFAR

[arctic grove]

You worded it perfectly

[granite island]

I still haven't reached t4

With mackay

Even though I main him

I should grapple more

Would be nice if they made grapple range longer

[iron socket]

Is game good now?

Or still crashed and freezes?

[lilac dust]

Holy shit lol ... I was in one of the mini tunnels on Orbital at the stairs and an enemy throws a grenade in my face, so naturally I press the prompt to fling it back, but because I was on the stairs it got flown behind me and it ended up just klling the teammate behind me 🤣

[arctic grove]

Damn lol

Honestly the EoR screen needs a little fix, instead of showing me #1 for a contribution that I don’t get shown on the screen for (or it gives it to someone else) just don’t show me it at all unless I do get on the screen

[limpid pond]

Using the mcs is fun except when at a distance

[hollow furnace]

Someone here play Battlefield 4?

[lilac dust]

I did for 4 years straight, but now I'm a 2042 player

[hollow furnace]

Alr

You know the TV missile right

[lilac dust]

Ye

[hollow furnace]

Is there a way to manually make jt explode

Like the ucav

Airburst

[arctic grove]

No

[hollow furnace]

I can only leave it, was wondering if you could just blow it up midflight

Damm

Alr thanks

[wanton magnet]

Best you can do is keep it close to them and when it hits 0 it blows, I’ve gotten kills like that. They have to have low hp though.

[white geyser]

TV missile are fun, that’s why I want the devs to add tv missile for the wildcat secondary weapon

[lilac dust]

I wonder what new weapons we'll get in season 3. Guessing a new shotgun at least

Actually maybe we won't get a new shotgun since they recently added to utility with the crossbow. Maybe a new sniper

[lone wren]

I'm hyped for javelin

[sharp terrace]

Sup

[arctic grove]

i will always find a way

https://tenor.com/view/diagnosis-skill-issue-diagnosis-skill-issue-draker-discord-gif-22231351

[lilac dust]

👋

[atomic egret]

I was actually referring to being sick of getting 2hit killed w/o headshot. Especially from deep down range..

[atomic egret]

Gol Mag came THIS season..

[lilac dust]

Yeah but they're gonna be adding vault weapons every major patch so I don't think that'll influence the decision on the new weapons each season

[atomic egret]

XBow last. I heard maybe usas12

True..

[queen trout]

Bruh do I have to turn on cross play to get in a match?

[lilac dust]

What platform?

[queen trout]

Ps5

[queen trout]

Ps5

[lilac dust]

I'm in a full lobby right now on PS5 and don't have crossplay on so it sounds like it's your region

It probably wouldn't be an issue in any region if crossplay was off by default cos I know there's a ton of console players that would keep it off if it was off by default. Most just keep it off assuming it'll always be impossible to find games.

[queen trout]

So do I have to switch regions

[queen trout]

?

[lilac dust]

Crossplay is on by default for all platforms. If this wasn't the case, then regions that currently can't find lobbies with it off would probably find them more easily

[lilac dust]

Oooh Flashback Breakthrough and Frontlines (New name called Tipping Point) are potentially coming to the game soon according to datamines 👀

[calm bison]

What’s your favorite flavor of pop tart

[violet meteor]

[olive locust]

anyone know how to fix black window on startup? game wont load

[violet meteor]

Yes turn on your monitor

[limpid pond]

Ya know it's sad when I can get first place for kills with a mcs when you have alot of the playerbase using the star

Scar

[arctic grove]

How’s that sad?

[hollow bough]

which game mode?

[limpid pond]

The scar is the most op weapon I played a full game of breakthrough and no one got over 62 kills

[arctic grove]

That’s like saying I can get first place for kills with an NTW while everyone uses SFARS

[hollow bough]

cause ive been doing the same in tactical conquest

super easy

[limpid pond]

Nah I don't play conquest not enough action

[hollow bough]

nah the little 16 v 16 infantry one

not the 64 64

[limpid pond]

Nah those are mad easy. I'm talking about 64 player breakthrough

[hollow bough]

gotcha

[limpid pond]

Mcs has to be one of the worst weapons in the game right?

It goes aks vCar then mcs for sure

[hollow bough]

idk

[next onyx]

Vcar got a buff so it isn't so bad anymore.

[hollow bough]

its pretty much 1 shot if youre close enough

done quite a few quad kills with it

[limpid pond]

Ahh then I will finally complete it. Got to mastery 34 when the game came out on it and haven't touched it since

[hollow bough]

go with the second option for ammo loadout though

more damage, bigger spread

[ivory canopy]

Well so far I really hate the AKS in AOW

[limpid pond]

Aks is literally terrible bro

I already masterd it. Worst gun by far

[ivory canopy]

So it really isn't just me then

[limpid pond]

Pro tip. Don't use the laser it doesn't help

Nah everyone knows the aks is the worst gun in the game

Spread is too bad at distance

Fire rate is too low

And damage over all is trash

[ivory canopy]

Yeah I'm trying to get to 100 kills with and getting outclassed wholeheartedly

[limpid pond]

As soon as I hit level 40 with I stopped using it

[ivory canopy]

You have the patience of a saint

[limpid pond]

Another tip. Flank you won't win most gunfights if they shoot back

[ivory canopy]

To have done it that soon

[limpid pond]

I was off from work and downed 3 monsters that day

I was a literal crackhead

[ivory canopy]

I miss every shot

[limpid pond]

Ya know what gun I don't look forward to mastering the damn pf51 I'm sorry man but the gun is like weird asf.

[drifting tangle]

I think I might have accidentally unlocked an upcoming vault weapon

[ivory canopy]

Like it just doesn't work

[limpid pond]

I found crouch spam strafing works well

[limpid pond]

Send the pics

Also which one?

[ivory canopy]

I thought the crossbow or NTW-50 were frustrating

[drifting tangle]

Aek smth

[ivory canopy]

But the Krinkov is looking to be far worse

[limpid pond]

Nah crossbow is a good hipfirec1 shot so if you aim well you can get kills. Ntw was actually easy to use when I mastered it idk about now

I mainly only use smgs

It's like the pkp. Pkp was busted asf when I mastered it so it was easy.

Also it's a unpopular opinion but I think the 128 player modes for breakthrough were better than 64 players

[drifting tangle]

I sent in dms since it won't let me send them here

[ivory canopy]

I found it better when you were at a distance

[fiery shoal]

oooo really, i hated playing with it myself

[ivory canopy]

and were very deliberate on your shooting

But otherwise, most other weapons outclass it in some way. It's less than a jack of all trades the way I see it; anything you can do with it there's another gun that does it objectively better.

[limpid pond]

The pkp or aks?

[ivory canopy]

The AKS

I actually quite like the PKP

[limpid pond]

Oh yeah 100% it even gets shredded by the mp28

I wonder if I should try to get on the leader board but with a pistol

Hmmmm

[hollow bough]

on the AK i found it very helpful to run around with iron sights. the extra boost to ADS speed helped me win battles b/c the damage/spray was not enough

[ivory canopy]

tbh I've never found a noticable difference between ironsights and rds

At least not the RDS I normally use

[hollow bough]

makes a world of difference

love it on the pbx

pbx with iron dominates lol

been many times where ive emptied all 3 different ammo types in 1 life

[arctic grove]

Irons dominate any other sight IMO

[hollow bough]

fax

[limpid pond]

Really??? I hate the iron sights for the aks. I feel like they get in the way and aren't accurate but I agree about the pbx

[arctic grove]

I exclusively only run Irons

[hollow bough]

the only other scope I'll use

is the M22 3.5x

[arctic grove]

only times I’ll use optics is if I feel like using sights or if I don’t like the irons

[limpid pond]

I main the holo rds or the the regular holographic sight

Back to tryna master the mcs

[next onyx]

@arctic grove You love micro t1.

[arctic grove]

Uhhhh

tbf it iss a rlly nice sight

[wide shore]

I run the 74U with irons but that’s basically it

[white geyser]

[limpid pond]

Welp I dropped 68 kills with the mcs last game

Almost had 69

[severe oyster]

My battle pass points aren’t updating

[chilly jacinth]

enjoy

[kindred condor]

Aight quick question
How does the moderate xp thing work

(In PvE)

Like is it less xp per match or less xp after a certain number of matches

And how much does it contribute to mastery

[tame cobalt]

[tame cobalt]

there's a cap on how much xp u can get per MINUTE

[tame cobalt]

dunno

[errant scarab]

Hi

[kindred condor]

Then why th it ain't working after a point of time in a match

Like
Not working at all

[tame cobalt]

idk

maybe I'm wrong

[mental cave]

probably a cap overall

on how much you can earn in the match

sounds like that would make sense

[kindred condor]

That's actually sad

[bronze vector]

i

[tame cobalt]

u

[austere dirge]

yeah there's a cap per some small time interval and on top of that, there is an overall cap. when the overall cap is reached, the game will tell you with the yellow HAS REACHED CAP text at the end of the round

[kindred condor]

It doesn't tell me💔💔

[austere dirge]

i get it every time lol. probably because i cheese the bots like crazy

[kindred condor]

I cheese bots a lot and never get that

[austere dirge]

i shrug. i hope you never see that yellow text

[radiant thunder]

level 16, still no access to jet fighters?

[kindred condor]

[kindred condor]

That's weird

You should be getting them

[limpid pond]

Mcs is almost mastery 1

The gun is stupidly inconsistent

[mental cosmos]

Russian Specialist

Russian Specialist

[limpid pond]

Dude in a heli is mad cause I shot him down with aa

Said dice had to add aa to make randoms happy lmao

He actually thinks him flying around and then running away when he get hits once takes skill

Meanwhile he has a 1.7 kd over with a 1.4 against players. Out of his 18000 kills almost 4k of them are bots

[eager spire]

...well i mean, AA is able to be dodged

if he was a better pilot

[limpid pond]

Lmaooo I had the 3 missed locking

Missle lockons

[slender isle]

What time are the challenges unlocked?

[limpid pond]

Lmao dude I got into a lobby with him again and he's in a heli and runs to the other side of the map after I shoot him.

Homies a bot

[upbeat sand]

looks like an engineer if this dud appears and idnt scrapped (or is actually real)

[slender isle]

Temporyal found it in the files, and he's been pretty spot on with Liz and Crawford

[upbeat sand]

other than that is this guy does gat added its all just gonna be aaww its call of duty!!!! how dare theyy

[slender isle]

Wait COD has an RC car?!?!?!

I remember something like it being in BOIII

[upbeat sand]

yeah the RCXD thing

basically a suicide bomber car you control

[slender isle]

Ehh, people could say "hur dur cod has guns so battlefield copied them" and they don't

well I mean they do but that's besides the point

[tacit sphinx]

however, i don’t believe lis and crawford’s abilities were ever found - i wouldn’t be surprised if the next specialist did end up being named hale, but equally i wouldn’t be surprised if the only thing in common was the name and the gadget was different

[upbeat sand]

still cant believe the cod v battlefield still exists

its stupid

[slender isle]

I don't think we'll see another engineer lmao

cause it'd now be 3 engineers

[upbeat sand]

we dont need more enginners

its 5 if this guy gets added

[tacit sphinx]

how did both of you manage to count that wrong lol

there are currently 3, a new one would make it 4

[upbeat sand]

specialist rework

since crawford is getting moved

wat

wait

irish

me stupid

[tacit sphinx]

which is a) not currently inthe game and b) yeah it’s a swap

[slender isle]

If we get this guy

it'll be 3 engineers that would have been added

[tacit sphinx]

technically crawford would actually be the third as he’ll become an engineer later on

[chilly jacinth]

weird

[arctic grove]

helloing

[low timber]

A new engineer would be nice after the classes rework because:
Boris, After T1’ing him before his nerf I’m not really wanting to use him
Lis, stuck on the G-84 so can’t use other launchers (which is still nice as with her you can run a launcher and AT mines)
Crawford, don’t really see him as anti vehicle tbh, but he’ll do.

[sharp mortar]

Why cant i find find any active server? (EU)

[chilly jacinth]

either youve turned off crossplay

or something broke

[sharp mortar]

yeah crossplay is off

[chilly jacinth]

turn it on

[sharp mortar]

that matters?

ok thanx

even the browsers showing 6 servers and none active

Also wasnt there an option once to play all the old maps? (ported)

[chilly jacinth]

theyre in the 64 player conquest playlist im pretty sure

[sharp mortar]

ah crossplay on helped...thanx mate

[keen vector]

quack

[low timber]

BF3 got released 11 years ago today

[limpid pond]

Servers are dead in na

There's like 1 and 1/2 breakthrough servers and I'm not playing against ai

[inner roost]

Well it's down hours in NA rn most ppl sleeping

[limpid pond]

I know. It's currently 5 am for me

I stayed up the whole night by accident

I don't have work today so my dumbass was grinding the mcs t1 mastery

[inner roost]

pain gun to use

my condolences

[limpid pond]

Yeah very inconsistent but I hit a few clips with it

Multiple quad feeds and I even got an 8 on

I hit a nasty flank on stranded and murdered 14 people

Other than that tho I pretty much die to anyone that's past 20 feet unless I sweat like a crack head on them

[ancient peak]

Kinda sad how much better the Saiga is

Leagues better

[limpid pond]

I did a lot of 1 shots with the mcs tho

I just have to be stupidly close and play cover

[ancient peak]

What shot were you using for the mcs anyway

[limpid pond]

#01 buckshot

I also was using the laser with a holo

But I didn't scope in

Mainly alot of slide hopping around corners or running up on players and jumping into them

I dropped 82 kills with it on renewal

But the game also lasted for 40 minutes so it's not that great tbh

[low timber]

#01 is the standard right?

[limpid pond]

Yeah

It's the one I found to be the most consistent out of the 4

The slugs are actually terrible

[low timber]

Flechette has the exact same stats, but con is less ammo so you’d need the ammo crate or Anghel, pro is the penetration.

[limpid pond]

Flechette rounds are pretty decent but very very inconsistent

Flechette from my use so far is slightly better for range but that's it

Better to run around with the 24 bullet than only 8

04 buckshot is possibly the worst one. Hit marker gallore

[low timber]

8+8 flechettes*

[limpid pond]

I was referring only to reserves but oka

[red shoal]

What's a good weapon for close combat and also medium range combat?

[low timber]

On paper the 04 looks the best with highest damage and most buck in the shot, but yeah.

[limpid pond]

Pbx or mp9

If you want a gun that will do it all use the sfar

[red shoal]

Thank you!

[ancient peak]

M5A3 w/ close quarters rounds can do close to medium fairly well too

[limpid pond]

If not the sfar use the m5a3

[red shoal]

I find myself losing close combat battles with it because of the 'slow' rate of fire

Might just be bc I'm bad though. lol

[limpid pond]

Yeah sfar is to easy to use

All the ars are really good though

[lilac dust]

In the year 2042 we soldiers became too lazy to equip the 2042 attachments onto the vault weapons - #Official Lore

[limpid pond]

Huh

Don't the vault weapons come with attachments already

[lilac dust]

That's the lore behind why you can't equip 2042 attachments on vault weapons

[limpid pond]

So I'm confused

Ohhh

[arctic grove]

He means 2042 attachments

[red shoal]

Something like the pbx will win close combat to it though right?

[limpid pond]

I though it was just because the gun is from a different era

[arctic grove]

meh

[limpid pond]

Yes pbx k30

[arctic grove]

ehhh

if you can hit your shots you can win against them

[limpid pond]

That's a big issue with alot of 2042 players. They can't hit their shots so they use the sdar

Sfar

[ancient peak]

If you land at least one head shot you’ve got the kill unless you literally throw with the SFAR

[limpid pond]

Yeah sfar is just a no skill gun

[red shoal]

As in they're just inaccurate? Or some kind of bug

[arctic grove]

Very true

Skill issue if you ask me

[limpid pond]

Yeah that'd why I main the mp9 and mp28

[red shoal]

I wish they brought the AEK971 to BF2042 instead of just portal

[arctic grove]

I just run the Glock cuz haha Glock go pew pew

[limpid pond]

I love when peoppe get mad at me for hosing off meta guns and still topping the leaderboard

[ancient peak]

Meanwhile me rocking the DM7

[limpid pond]

Lmao mp28 go pew pew too

[arctic grove]

Meta guns are so boring

[limpid pond]

They are

[low timber]

I got the VCAR to T2 few days ago

[limpid pond]

My mp9 is mastery level 561

[arctic grove]

like I’d say I’m decently skilled at fps games. but man

meta is the most boring shit to happen with games

[limpid pond]

Yeah but I understand it all tho

I heard they're adding the ump

As a smg nerd if it's meta I will run it because I love smgs

[arctic grove]

I had someone the other day say I’m not at my best potential or whatever since I don’t use meta

[limpid pond]

That's cap

[arctic grove]

I’ll run it simply because it’s the ump

[arctic grove]

IKR

[limpid pond]

If you do better than meta users with off meta then your at a higher potential

[low timber]

Only guns I’ve yet to get T1 are
All sidearms and Vault weapons
AM40, VCAR, SWS-10, MCS-880, GVT and Ghostmaker.

[arctic grove]

MARSE!

[limpid pond]

Like I said I dropped 82 and 24 earlier with the mcs when half my team and the enemy team were using the avancys and sfar

[arctic grove]

I say you should do an easy gun next for the T1

[limpid pond]

Am40 is pretty easy do that one

[arctic grove]

I T1’d the avancys and I haven’t touched it since

[limpid pond]

That's how every other guns except smgs are for me

[low timber]

I have AM40, VCAR and SWS-10 on T2.

[limpid pond]

I got almost all guns t1 when the game came out

128 player mode on breakthrough was the shit for me

[arctic grove]

man I miss 128BT so much

[low timber]

On specialists I have all but Lis and Crawford at T1

[limpid pond]

Same I wish they would make it work tbh

[low timber]

T2 Lis and ~850/1200 to T2 Crawford

[limpid pond]

Running up behind 10 clueless players than reining down on all the fighters

[arctic grove]

it worked at launch I don’t get why they removed it

[low timber]

Because of the low player counts

[limpid pond]

Alot of bugs for pc players and consoles couldn't handle it

My console overheated almost within 10 minutes and I have a series x

[low timber]

I do miss the 128p Breakaway BT

[limpid pond]

Orbital breakthrough was good too

[arctic grove]

128 BT on Break was honestly so fun

[limpid pond]

Imagine the new orbital map with 128 bt

[low timber]

Does the modes update today with the new weeklies?

[limpid pond]

No idea honestly

[arctic grove]

I’d assume so

[limpid pond]

Also paik is still the best operator imo

[low timber]

If we get the breakthrough playlist we might see a new Orbital layout

[limpid pond]

I'm a little butt hurt about her nerf but she's still good

[arctic grove]

tbh

Whenever I play her I don’t really notice the nerf

[arctic grove]

oooo

[limpid pond]

I do. The scans go by to fast and you get a shorter range

During the old days you could scan like 50 people at once and it would almost keep them highlighted

Now they disappear pretty fast

But I've mained her for so long I would notice

[arctic grove]

Yeahhh i miss that ngl

I remember T1ing her around launch and not knowing Wtff the T1 system was yet

[limpid pond]

I mastered paik on kaleidoscope at the second area with that main building I would stand outside near the walls and constantly scan

[low timber]

Because in the rework they added cover to two places that are not even in the 128p Conquest other than the RU uncap. But those areas were in use back in the 128p Breakthrough

[limpid pond]

Literally would scan 50 people instantly and get a load of assists

[ancient peak]

A lot of the operators are strong it’s just people again go for the path of least resistance and spam Mackay and Sundance

[limpid pond]

True I see so many mackay and Sundance

I mastered mackay but never Sundance

[arctic grove]

I haven’t Seen Sundance an absolute insane amount recently

definitely alot of mackay though

[limpid pond]

Mackay is mastery level Like 45

I don't use him often at all

[arctic grove]

On my all weapons T1 adventure I’ve only really been using him

[limpid pond]

Only peoppe I use alot are paik Rao and falck

[low timber]

I’d say the specialist I see least are Dozer and Rao, maybe Crawford depending of the map.

[arctic grove]

Specialists like dozer just aren’t that fun

[limpid pond]

Rao is good for defensive side on maps with vehicle spam

[ancient peak]

Rao is shamefully underused

[limpid pond]

Just constantly shut down their vehicle weapons

[ancient peak]

Prolly my favorite operator of the list

[low timber]

I want to use dozer because the explosive spam is making me crazy

[limpid pond]

Yeah peoppe don't know how to use him

[arctic grove]

Same

[limpid pond]

And his new ability where If someone damages him they show up on the map is good

[low timber]

But I want to T1 Lis and Crawford first

[limpid pond]

Irish is good against explosive spam

Trophies are handy on maps like stranded or second area of exposure on the stair case

[low timber]

Yeah, but first you need to remember to place the APS if you move a lot, and hope it actually blocks the C5

[limpid pond]

It normally does for me. I normally place 1 on each side of an opening for maximum coverage

[ancient peak]

I think Irish will be more used when he gets swapped to support

[limpid pond]

I want them to add the mp5

True

I just hope they don't take away the ability to use the med pen for all classes

[low timber]

And the blast radiuses in 2042 explosives are massive, in previous games the safe distance of a grenade would still make you loose 80hp in 2042

[limpid pond]

I really wanna keep my med pens

My med pen mastery is level 1000 I use them so much

Just to useful compared to med packs and waiting for falcks to boost your hp

[arctic grove]

I forget but what is ambient occlusion again ?

[limpid pond]

No idea man

Oh it would be sick if they added mastery skins for vault weapons tho

I'm not displaying a badge and if I wanna use the gun I at least want the mastery skin since I got the level up to 40

[lilac dust]

Interesting coincidence that BF3 released 11 years ago today and the MW2 campaign came out this week which has the same actor that played one of the agents in the interrogation scene

[limpid pond]

Eh maybe it was intended maybe not

Embedded fail

Laugh at me

Sad

I let everyone down

[lilac dust]

2 fish were let down in the making of this.

[limpid pond]

Indeed

I messed up

[ancient peak]

Based on the gadget rework med pen looks to be an assault only gadget : /

[limpid pond]

Cringe

[ancient peak]

Along with armor plate

[limpid pond]

Ugh

I don't wanna be forced to play Falck

Then I just have peoppe spamming the revive ping

[lilac dust]

Yeah I mean I only ever used med pen on Dozer, Sundance and Mackay so it fits well IMO

[limpid pond]

I spam the med pen

[tame vine]

they need to remove armor plates tbh

[limpid pond]

Yes

[ancient peak]

I wouldn’t mind. I don’t use them

[limpid pond]

Remember when they were busted and you could give them to teammates?

That was a pain there

[lilac dust]

I never used med pen on any other specialist than those 3 which are now assault because it always felt out of place with other specialists

[ancient peak]

And the moment you couldn’t Angel fell from relevance rip

[limpid pond]

Exactly

Nobody uses angel now except for the season 1 BP skin

Also when are they adding some cool skins. I'm tryna buy the British sas or maybe navy seal skins

[ancient peak]

Today the shop should be updated with the 2.2 skins

[limpid pond]

Ya know what time?

[chilly jacinth]

i see plenty of Angel players still

[limpid pond]

I heard they're adding burnt skins like the ones from bf5

[ancient peak]

So that SAS gas mask looking Sundance skin and the Falck snow helmet and goggles

[limpid pond]

Those were sick asf

[ancient peak]

The ski mackay skin etc

But don’t quote me on that

[lilac dust]

1 hour and 10 minutes

[limpid pond]

Yeah I might get the Sundance one and start using her

[tacit sphinx]

it wont be all of them at once lol

[chilly jacinth]

ive even died twice to his crate this week

[limpid pond]

I love British sas and gas masks hence my pfp

Ngl tho the liquidators event was pretty bad

I got all the rewards in 4 hours

[ancient peak]

Eh it didn’t overstay its welcome imo. I could get the stuff easily and get out

And in the meantime abuse the Saiga

[limpid pond]

Yeah that's how it was for me. I ran rao and paik with a ammo box for teammates to supply from

Got a crap ton of ribbons from spots and support

General kills were easy to get but I had like 60 ribbons in 2 hours

[ancient peak]

Mhm. I will say the battle passes and the event were a breath of fresh air. You barely even need to grind to get all the goodies

Versus other games where sometimes you gotta treat it as a second job

[limpid pond]

That is true but I do wish there was more skins

Like I'm never gonna use dozer so his skin is useless. I don't play with ars after I mastery them so the am40 skins is useless and the tank skin well I don't use vehicles often so

Dude my auto correct is terrible

It does the opposite of what it's supposed to do. It messes up words instead of fixing them

But I was under the impression that alot more content was going to be achievable through the event

[ancient peak]

Yeah I can agree with that

[limpid pond]

Oh yeah I forgot but someone earlier unlocked a upcoming vault weapon somehow

It's called the aek 971

[ancient peak]

Are you sure it’s not one of the vault weapons for portal

Yeah that’s a portal only weapon rn

[limpid pond]

Ohhh okay

They didn't know and neither did I

[tacit sphinx]

yeah it's literally just the unlock to use it in bc2 portal

[ancient peak]

Now it will probably be brought over at some point

But for now just bc2 portal

[tacit sphinx]

and bf3 portal but that's also a different unlock lol

[limpid pond]

Yo btw am I the only who feels like we should get a few more weekly challenges for the bp

[tacit sphinx]

i think they're fine

[limpid pond]

I just think we should get like 3 more challenges

[tacit sphinx]

easy enough you can get them all in a couple hours but decently rewarding, they can carry you so hard through the bp

[chilly jacinth]

isn't there like a month left

of challenges

[tacit sphinx]

yeah ish

[limpid pond]

Yeah that's true

[ancient peak]

I completed the pass last season by playing one match a day, the challenges every week, and I still had a week of challenges left over

I think we are good where we are right now

[limpid pond]

Yeah I played half the season last season was to busy playing the apex split

[chilly jacinth]

I've been finished for like 2 weeks

[tacit sphinx]

i think i completed the pass last season in like week 11 but there were also 3 straight weeks where i didnt play at all lol

[chilly jacinth]

almost 3

[limpid pond]

I'm almost done with this current one

[tacit sphinx]

so good that you can do challenges retroactively

[limpid pond]

Yes I love that

It's like a pubg feature

How you can complete old challenges from previous weeks

Love that they did that

[tacit sphinx]

also the sheer monkey brain from completing a handful of three weeks worth of missions and seeing the number go up in the eor screen

[limpid pond]

Only complaint I have about 2042 is the sky

Aks*

Like why make it so bad

I love smgs and they just massacred the aks

[tacit sphinx]

i mean it shouldn't really be an smg

[limpid pond]

Eh it makes sense but not with how they ported it

[ancient peak]

It’s just in the SMG slot because there isn’t a carbine slot. I digress, yeah the gun needs some help

[tacit sphinx]

its not that bad from what i've used, but it should either be an AR or in a separate carbines category and not have the smg headshot multiplier

[limpid pond]

It gets worse trust me

[tacit sphinx]

i feel like having a normal headshot multi would go a long way with how controllable it is

[limpid pond]

The gun has really bad bloom if you strafe

It also takes like 6 bullets to kill up close and like 10 from a distance

Headshot damage is good tho

But overall the gun is considered the worst gun in the game currently

I can kill people from a further distance with the g57 then the aks and faster with the glock too

[inland kiln]

Jesus, EA customer service is the worst I've ever seen in my life.
