battlefield-2042

[sour meadow]

never had that happen before

wasn't for battlefield

[onyx vault]

I've def had that.

[sour meadow]

shit ate my money and didn't give me what i paid for

[onyx vault]

Ok, did not have that.

[sour meadow]

made a report but of course nothing changed

[onyx vault]

No one takes ownership of microtransactions done in game that go through steam

[sour meadow]

it was for TF2

[onyx vault]

Steam basically says "the vendor is response" and the vendor says "we have nothing to do with this"

[shy latch]

anyone else have "unable to load persistence data" error?

[sour meadow]

welcome to battlefield 2042, right this way

[onyx vault]

I haven't seen that in a year.

[shy latch]

damn, today between freezes and data error I can't join a match

[onyx vault]

as with everything 2042, try to verify file integrity if no one gives you anything better

[sour meadow]

yea latest patch has been a clusterfuck

[shy latch]

but till yesterday I did not have so many times these problems

[sour meadow]

me too

[shy latch]

3-4 freeze max and then the 5th try was well

[ancient peak]

Hey look at the bright side, Cod is freezing too

[sour meadow]

so no one gets to play anything

[shy latch]

I don't care about CoD at all

[sour meadow]

i kinda care but like

$70

gtfo man

[hallow moat]

Anyone know a fix for the frozen screen while playing?`

[shy latch]

I hate CoD since MW3 and it's a no sense purchase a copy-and-paste game every time

[sour meadow]

i've been playing the older cods

only for the story tho

[shy latch]

campaign is another story, personally I don't like shooters campaigns in general

[slate meadow]

Wow first time out of all the crashes it's actually fully crashes my pc

[lilac dust]

I'm really curious to know why this year's COD campaign isn't as impressive story wise. I hear it's got a lot of epic moments but weak writing?

[slate meadow]

Crashed*

[low timber]

Frag T2

[sour meadow]

are other natural disasters coming in the future or is that a pipe dream now

like body dragging

[ancient peak]

The gameplay was tedious (armored enemies made the game slow), story was… kinda weird, and it wasn’t as much run and gun as it was sneaker cell

[queen trout]

Is Harvard zone worth playing

Hazard

[sour meadow]

lol

[queen trout]

Tryna level up

[violet meteor]

Play it and see if you enjoy it

Strange I know

[sour meadow]

there's a good way to bring players back to hazard zone

[vocal adder]

Hazard Zone is literally dead its only active at certain times but even then its hard to find players

[sour meadow]

rename it to "Harvard Zone"

[violet meteor]

Hahvahd

[queen trout]

Yuup

[queen trout]

Gotcha

I just thought you could get more gear

[lilac dust]

Just curious to hear people's thoughts. Strange I know

[arctic grove]

Hazard zone is a learning curve that many people don’t want to put the effort into learning. it’s requires teamwork to the highest degree and your kills make a difference in the outcome of the whole match. Due to that it’s very rewarding

if you are looking for a more casual environment the AOW is the go to.

[grizzled blaze]

ugh i hate this objective/logistic ribbon mission

[warped pulsar]

Sucks that the crashes still aren't fixed

[shell ermine]

Is it possible to start a HZ game alone with no other players joining to farm the trophies?

[violet meteor]

You don't deserve my thoughts

[lilac dust]

You deserve deez nuts

[violet meteor]

Ooooooo

[queen trout]

Aow?

[lilac dust]

😎

[left tinsel]

does anyone elses game keeps fucking crashing every 10 minutes

[shell ermine]

Playing Exodus and I forgot how powerful the guided missile from the UAV on Arica could be.

[violet meteor]

You have to unpause the game

[shell ermine]

Killed a MBT with it

[left tinsel]

unpause?

[left tinsel]

.

[lilac dust]

If it had any rewards that could be used / displayed outside the mode then it would have started strong and DICE would've added more to the mode as I'm sure they had plans to, but oh well.... I'm just baffled they didn't add a single reward for it. That alone killed the mode on arrival

[arctic grove]

There are achievements and for 10 extractions consecutively you get a very nice tag/banner

I hear you though, I do

[lilac dust]

Absolutely. I enjoyed playing the mode for the first few months because of that but once I got most of that done it's a rip

[fiery dawn]

All Out Warfare

[lilac dust]

I started forcing myself to play it and trying really hard to stay engaged with it, but man they could've had something special if they updated it frequently

The addition of a tank boss shows that they were going to add plenty of cool things to it. Such a shame

[fiery dawn]

The problem with HZ for me (besides it being pretty boring) is that you can never find a match because no one plays it 😐

[pure frost]

loving these invisible guns then crashing

tried everything

big sigh

[lilac dust]

I was so excited when I got sundance tier 1 in early December last year. I jumped straight into HZ to show it off and it was great, then a month or 2 later I had no cool mode to show it off in 🥲

It's so weird thinking back to how much I loved HZ initially. Oh how foolish I was

Then again I loved hourglass initially. Honeymoon phases are weird like that

[fresh mango]

did they fix that freezing problem?

[next onyx]

Not yet.

[slate meadow]

I don't think they will

Never a good sign that after 10 days they haven't even.found out what's causing it

[warped pulsar]

must be pretty serious, since they haven't fixed it yet

[left tinsel]

ah ok I'm not the only one experiencing it

thought my gpu was fucked

[slate meadow]

It's not the fix that's the issue it's they can't find the fault

[grizzled blaze]

dust shield got disabled wut

[low timber]

Just got back to the menu as well and saw that notification

[next onyx]

Wait what.

[low timber]

Seems like it’s the free liquidators headgear for McKay

[next onyx]

Can I have a link.

[low timber]

It’s in-game, on the main menu

[next onyx]

Oh I'm in bed.

[low timber]

Get up

[arctic grove]

Are you finally going to sleep?

[lilac dust]

I'm so confused. What is the dust shield and what does that have to do with the mackay helmet

[next onyx]

Maybe.

[low timber]

It’s the name of his headgear

[lilac dust]

Wait dust shield is the white free helmet?

[low timber]

Yes

[next onyx]

The helmet is the apparent source of it.

[lilac dust]

Huh. I guess I never looked at the name lmao

[next onyx]

So they're looking at what's wrong with it before re-releasing.

[low timber]

Well I just planned to check McKay and Dozer but it was McKay that I looked at first

[next onyx]

Well from what I collected in this convo.

[lilac dust]

I was just like cool white helmet. Equip

[next onyx]

It might not be connected.

[grizzled blaze]

it has too many polygons

[low timber]

We have temporarily disabled the dust shield headgear while we investigate an issue relating to performance.

[next onyx]

The performance hit could be linked to the crashes.

[grizzled blaze]

i expect an apology and resignations from this blunder

[royal trail]

wait can a helmet be the cause of freezing etc? lol

[low timber]

Not impossible

[next onyx]

Yeah don't. No one could have predicted issues coming from a helmet.

[mental cave]

How’s the game on pc? is it still broken?

[next onyx]

Might.

[slate meadow]

i got the dust headgear for mackay like three days before the issues started

[next onyx]

They just found a problematic part of it and probably have a lead into it.

[lucid goblet]

https://twitter.com/BattlefieldComm/status/1586040496228814848?s=20&t=445RTuH5tqpoXF0sI5oljQ

[mental cave]

talking about the helmet or the game? lol

[next onyx]

Yes.

[lucid goblet]

huh no preview. well fck u discord

[slate meadow]

can you imagine if all this was caused by a cosmetic ?

like fps drop network errors and full on crashes 😂

[left tinsel]

it just proves how well this game is made

[mental cave]

[next onyx]

I remember some issues with skyrim mods in that regard.

[slate meadow]

i guess it makes sence why some havent suffered and others have if those who havent had issues havent unlocked the headgear yet

[lilac dust]

Lol twitter links are so weird like that

[next onyx]

Seriously though. Considering all the other cosmetics they've released and for this one to cause a specific problem it's kinda weird.

I kinda can't blame dice for this one.

I have the headgear but I don't use it.

[royal trail]

i remember how ur character would start using swiming animations on dry land if u had too high fps in skyrim

atleast we dont have that

lol

[mental cave]

imagine your game breaking from running it too good

[slate meadow]

i actually do use it

[chilly jacinth]

fps used to be tied to game physics

[slate meadow]

same as fallout 76

[chilly jacinth]

so its a real possibility

to break a game by having too good hardware

[next onyx]

Yeah I'm getting that on fear.

[slate meadow]

you fps would determine you character speed so you could go like 5x faster then the game should have allowed as it was fps capped but you coulkd uncap it in the .ini file

[next onyx]

Bodies are flying everywhere.

[chilly jacinth]

glorious

[mental cave]

thats probably the most annoying thing that could ever happen, but you could just lower the settings lol

[next onyx]

Gets a bit annoying when the picture flies across the room for the tenth time lol.

[grizzled blaze]

https://twitter.com/TwoPinessTTV/status/1586041444506435588?t=PYi5QQX6U6U3c4AXykbkIQ&s=19

[arctic grove]

who?

[slate meadow]

imagine if it took them 10 days to find out it was a helmet causing the issue

[arctic grove]

I mean

[lucid goblet]

https://tenor.com/view/huh-dave-chappelle-what-confused-gif-10721560

[arctic grove]

It’d be the most unsuspecting thing If it is

[next onyx]

Cosmetics would be the least of your concern.

[atomic egret]

Anyone wanna help me with a server suggestion to get this damn Time Crime background? Maybe it's stuck, I don't know...

[slate meadow]

I just hope to god it is the issue

But would also die of laughter if it is

[still vault]

Anyone have an image of this hat?

[thorn helm]

[next onyx]

Bird.

[slate meadow]

You mean the dust hat it's the white one

[warped pulsar]

wowzers, so the helmet must not be optimized

[arctic grove]

hello everyone, I get the same error all the time. everything becomes invisible and soon the game just crashes. I ask you to help me deal with this problem

[chilly jacinth]

i can offer you some coping strategies

[still vault]

Got an image?

[atomic egret]

[arctic grove]

ready to listen

[chilly jacinth]

drinking booze

[atomic egret]

[chilly jacinth]

i hear that one is popular

[arctic grove]

Yeah, thanks for helping

[atomic egret]

[arctic grove]

dice made a garbage dump of the game in a year

[chilly jacinth]

You are welcome

[slate meadow]

Yeah will try find one after this game mate

[arctic grove]

a multi-million company can't fix bugs, good job👍🏻

[still vault]

For info regarding the current crashes read the pins 📌

[atomic egret]

Here we go again.. fucked with your settings and now your going back to BF5..

[arctic grove]

anyone remember in bfv if you stayed to long in menu the game would jump scare you with the

only the first 6 notes of the theme really loud

[atomic egret]

[grizzled blaze]

this twitch guy is fucking obnoxious

idk if hes hacking or not but the way hes moving and snapping feels very sus

[chilly jacinth]

Hes irrelevant

[grizzled blaze]

worst bit is hes a fucking sweaty tryhard

who unironically spawncamps and was buzzing around in a littlebird ruining the round for everyone

[arctic grove]

who?

[grizzled blaze]

guy named Twitch_FocusBF

hes on the breakthrough servers rn

yes he is streaming

[chilly jacinth]

oh that guy

hes the most obnoxious heli pilot ever

[arctic grove]

Oh I love that guy

[grizzled blaze]

guy bitched at me for not having over 5 kills when he got like 40 billion one round

hey buddy

IM A MEDIC

THATS NOT MY JOB

[arctic grove]

How does movement equal sus?

[grizzled blaze]

dude fucking speeds around somehoe

and hes jerking himself/snapping to targets super fast

worst is hes hacking best is hes a fucking tryhard

im just here to have fun man

i just wanna get this last fucking ribbon challenge done

[arctic grove]

max fov + tac sprint + slide jumping

[arctic grove]

I do the same thing

Not very hard

Just takes a lot of practice

[dapper river]

you have a gun, use it

a medic who cannot kill is a medic not worth having in the squad

[grizzled blaze]

brug you think i dont

[dapper river]

https://gfycat.com/plasticsingleduck

[arctic grove]

Most likely try Harding

which is very common playstyle

[fiery zenith]

Why so mad? It's just a game

[arctic grove]

who’s mad?

[fiery dawn]

Focus is a bf pro he’s just better than you 😂

[arctic grove]

^

[grizzled blaze]

literally whose mad

[fiery dawn]

you lmao

[fiery dawn]

^📸

[grizzled blaze]

thats not being mad thats being objective

[arctic grove]

off topic but I’m running stranded rn with slugs in the saiga with stubby barrel and oh my god

[grizzled blaze]

or is this gonna be that kinda thing where i say im not actually mad and you keep pressing this until i do get mad

[arctic grove]

if you can hit your headshots CQC is actually fucking insane

[grizzled blaze]

the reserve magcap on it is my main drawback

[arctic grove]

I usually use flechettes on the saiga LOL

20 drum is for pooopies

[fiery dawn]

idgaf I was also being objective 😂

[grizzled blaze]

never said he wasnt better than me lmao

[fiery dawn]

just pointing out that he’s literally a pro and he’s a very skilled and experienced player. he’s not hacking

[grizzled blaze]

i never said he was lol

i said i didnt know if he was and already concluded he was sweaty

literally in my posts one after the other

[obsidian elk]

bf2042 best battlefield

any agree'ers

?

[arctic grove]

I agree

[grizzled blaze]

no thats 1943

[obsidian elk]

nice thank you Lis

[arctic grove]

(Not sarcasm)

[obsidian elk]

any more agree'ers

[grizzled blaze]

i like BFV more just because of building

[fiery dawn]

Sure. But streamers often need to sweat to be entertaining to watch and gather a following and besides, if that’s the way someone enjoys playing the game there’s literally nothing wrong with that

[grizzled blaze]

idk whats enjoyable about spawncamping with a heli

[warped pulsar]

Wow the crashing stopped. That helmet might have been the problem

[analog stirrup]

99% of streamers cheat. it's nothing new

[grizzled blaze]

hey i never outright accused him of it

i dont know sweaty PC techniques im a consolechad

[fiery dawn]

I’ve watched him fly plenty of times and “spawn camping” isn’t all his heli time amounts to. Maybe you felt spawn trapped because he was farming so hard but yeah a good pilot can be devastating in 2042 because of the vehicle balance being so fucking

Nightbird isn’t op anymore, but a great MnK aimer can make it look nasty

[grizzled blaze]

it was the final point on the doha map i cant remember the name of that i dont like

[fiery dawn]

Hourglass?

[grizzled blaze]

teammates in the chat were bitching about it too and someone said he was sitting the whole round waiting to pick the nightbird

[bronze stirrup]

must have a toggle for brainless lobbies

[grizzled blaze]

that map is the worst already but when you have someone sweating that fucking hard its absolutely impossible to do anything

[fiery dawn]

Well that’s the problem lmao. Hourglass is a shit map. It’s a wide open desert yet still has plenty of skyscrapers to hide behind as a heli pilot it’s the perfect map to farm infantry

Blame Dice

[grizzled blaze]

i dont throw matches or quit but if its hourglass i always do i feel no shame

idk it was my first match of the day and i was already not in the best mood so maybe im just huffing severe copium rn

[fiery dawn]

I don’t even let the queue go through when it’s found a match and it says Hourglass

[bronze stirrup]

There's no shame in cherrypicking between bad maps

[fiery dawn]

I always cancel and restart the search

[grizzled blaze]

C on breakthrough is the worst holy SHIT

like absolutely the worst goddamn thing ive ever played in a multiplayer game

and i genuinely am not exaggerating rn (or counting joke CSS or TF2 maps)

yeah fuck i might need to stop playing today i cant even focus

[chilly jacinth]

hourglass and breakaway give me depression

[grizzled blaze]

breakaway is fun imho

used to hate it

then i got good at it

hourglass is impossible to get a groove on

[slate meadow]

Anybody else feel that the ghostmaker is.abit o.p

[chilly jacinth]

i dont have fun on them even if i do well

[grizzled blaze]

oh wait

[dark mural]

Yes, but never using again after getting T1

[grizzled blaze]

thought breakaway was the canafa map

canada

[chilly jacinth]

hell na

[grizzled blaze]

ok yeah breakaway needs some tweaking

[chilly jacinth]

breakaway is the icy oilrig

[grizzled blaze]

the rig itself is fun

[arctic grove]

https://tenor.com/view/team-fortress2-scout-gif-23871401

[grizzled blaze]

@fiery dawn sorry for being rude/seething

[arctic grove]

Literally Mackay

[grizzled blaze]

i get cascading anger

[arctic grove]

Imagine Malding lmao

[fiery dawn]

haha I see what you did there 😜

[grizzled blaze]

?

[worldly sentinel]

Is there any fix on the horizon for the game freezing up?? It's been over a week now and I still can't play more than 5 mins without it freezing. And yes, I've tried everything from Reinstalling drivers to reinstalling the game. Also rolled back updates. None of this worked for me

[grizzled blaze]

they may have today

mackay helmet was broken

im assuming too many polygons causing memory leaks

this happens (cf final fantasy 14)

[fiery dawn]

nah don’t apologize man I get it. it’s frustrating getting in lobbies with sweaty streamers sometimes. especially if you’re just chilling and having fun

[fiery dawn]

cause the guy’s name was focus and you said you can’t focus :P

[grizzled blaze]

oh fuck off lmao

[fiery dawn]

[dark mural]

Buddy of mine stopped receiving updates for his laptops drivers. Can't play many games no more. Modern day gaming is gonna be really taxing on older devices or rigs in the next 2-3 years.

[viscid bone]

Hey folks!!

Hope you're doing OK and are in good health ❤️

We recently made an alteration to the game to see if something is affecting freezing taking place on PC. If you're currently playing, could you let us know if you continue to still experience a freeze (often worded as crash for some :D)

[dapper river]

Excellent

[tiny surge]

!@! 24/7 domination

[fiery dawn]

Nice to see a yellow name in here :D

I definitely experienced a few freezes/crashes last night but haven’t tried to play today yet. Hopefully it fixes everything!

[frigid violet]

I literally just froze while menuing in the weapons collection lol

[viscid bone]

After a full refresh of the game?

[worldly sentinel]

I was just playing right before I posted that message. It is still freezing up.

[frigid violet]

I dunno I just sat down probably a few minutes before you sent that message and started the game

[viscid bone]

Okie doke, thank you folks. We'll continue to assess this and work towards improving things. Really sorry that this is ongoing for you, and I truly appreciate the patience as we continue to track this down ❤️

[thorn helm]

i switched to EA will that help with crashes and stuttering Stan-lee's

[frigid violet]

Yeah I opened the EA app and Discord at the same time, then checked some messages. After which I started the game and was menuing for about five, maybe ten minutes. For example I did see the message about the Dust helmet which was not there this morning when I played (no crash this morning)

So I would assume that includes the refresh

[wintry gate]

Just loaded in and it crashed within a 2 minutes, worst than before instead of gradual decline it just straight to 10-20fps then crashes.

[ripe hedge]

Oh hey wassuppp

[still vault]

Does that mean I made this for nothing?

[viscid bone]

Ewwww a teal badger! ❤️

[frigid violet]

Alex get back to work on porting more weapons from the previous games 😛

[ripe hedge]

Nope. I want to port weapons from the future games

[dark mural]

👌👏

[frigid violet]

2142 weapons inbound you guys heard it here first

[solid imp]

oh cool that means we'll get turrets, and personal deployable shields, and... wait...

[frigid violet]

I just crashed loading Arica Harboor 😦 😦

[dark mural]

Battlefield 6, coming exclusively to Battlefield Portal

[calm bison]

Fucking embed fail in #direct-communication

[frigid violet]

Titans when

[solid imp]

agreed 🙂

I want to launch pods up into the sky to capture a ship again. Good mode.

[tame cobalt]

[calm bison]

Wait isn’t it confirmed that BF and Titanfall share the same universe?

[tame cobalt]

Add bf6 and bf7 weapons in 2042

[solid imp]

The year is 2242...

[dark mural]

Add Titanfall weapons to 2042

F it, port in Mass Effect weapons.

[frigid violet]

but only ME1 weapons

[calm bison]

Apex takes place is 2733

[frigid violet]

thermal clips are dumb

[tame cobalt]

Alex boutta invent time travel to port a bf7 weapon to 2042

[calm bison]

It’s a bit of a time difference

[solid imp]

where there'll be a portal you can step through on the map that takes you to 2042, right onto the rotating platform in the cargo hold on Stranded

one way only

[slate meadow]

I've just watched a tank run over my ATM and they didn't explode 🤔

[low timber]

Alex confirmed time traveler.

[dapper river]

probably drove with the mine between the tracks

[solid imp]

Actually you know what.. I think I'd rather find out BF is in the Stargate universe

[dark mural]

I love using the drone. I like watching my team not look at the radar and get assassinated from behind.

[pine roost]

I swear yet again that every time I join this chat, it’s when titanfall has been mentioned

[low timber]

Jaffa kree!

[solid imp]

I mean nothing says Stargate like a P90

[low timber]

Lol, I got a Discord notification that they deleted instantly only had time to read “congratulations 🎊🎉 “

[pine roost]

The stalker account posted a tweet with that I believe

Do you follow them?

[low timber]

Oh wait, I think it was the #giveaways

[grizzled blaze]

can we ping the devs to ask for minor things btw

i want my radio

[low timber]

Forgot that I have that channel notify me every time there’s something

[arctic grove]

Correct me if im wrong: Performance issues are being caused by a Mackay scout Head gear???

[pine roost]

Looks like it

But realistically, I doubt cosmetics are tested for their performance impact before adding them. I guess you’d check for clipping issues but besides that it could slip by unnoticed

If it the cause

[ancient peak]

…I mean considering how many mackays I’ve seen with that dumb head gear…

[lone void]

Guess who just got into the old 3 tile title screen again

[jovial ridge]

anybody wants to play and help complete a weekly challenge

[queen trout]

Tempted to get the pass. But 39 tho? Damn

[slate meadow]

They have made d1 on stranded bt far to big now

It's almost impossible to defend as when you die you spawn 200m away

[hallow sierra]

im starting to wonder what 128p bt on stranded would be like

[arctic grove]

Total Chaos and i want that

[lone void]

Portal moment

[arctic grove]

portal only supports 128 Rush which is like BT

No BT in portal yet.

[violet meteor]

The eye of the spiderrrrrr

[grizzled blaze]

i know ppl used to do custom cod 4 lobbies with about 30 ppl in shipment

[shell ermine]

64 players even

[grizzled blaze]

i would say that but i didnt remember the limit

[warped pulsar]

Crashing is fixed so that's good, damn helmet crashing the game

[ancient peak]

It’s fixed?

[timber wasp]

Still crashes for me and I have a decent pc

Rtx 2070s and ryzen 2700x

[remote kiln]

https://twitter.com/BattlefieldComm/status/1585293474156359680

[timber wasp]

I've seen it,played almost a full match but crashed afterwards,il try deleting the cache or something

[remote kiln]

then yeah, theres nothing you can do lol

just wait

[arctic grove]

not gonna lie: It feels like something a troll would say but its the truth.

[timber wasp]

Yeah tbf they atleast found the issue it seems

So il wait

[arctic grove]

game getting crashed by a helmet

[warped pulsar]

I played for over n hour and no crash, before I would 100% crash within 2 min

[timber wasp]

Before I crashed in the menu lmao

Atleast I managed to play today a little

[worldly sentinel]

Just played 3 rounds without any issue. FYI

30 mins or so total time playing.

[fiery dawn]

wait what??

mackay liquidators helmet is the cause of the 2042 crashes??

[chilly umbra]

nice easy anti cheat errors

[woven acorn]

nice to actually be able to play the game again

[woven acorn]

that helmet just loves RAM apparently

lmao

classic battlefield moment

[ancient peak]

With how much he’s spammed it doesn’t shock me

[fiery dawn]

[dapper river]

IT WAS HIM

HE WAS THE SPY

THE SABOTEUR

[tiny imp]

lol

Mackay is the BF 2042 problem

[mental cave]

nah

he’s the solution

[tiny imp]

But the technology doesn´t exist

[fiery sluice]

[dapper river]

Plus every cosmetic can be loaded into memory at once, even if those specialists aren't on the field with those skins equipped, because you can browse the collection and the store while in a match

[mental cave]

day 1 of call of duty and the game is full of sweats, had to get back on to 2042 so i could feel like im not trash

[dapper river]

nah that's just good ol SBMM

[mental cave]

Bro

they must think i’m a pro esports player then

🤣

[dapper river]

everyone who has a w/l over 50% and a k/d above 1.0 is apparently "pro" according to IW

[mental cave]

over here getting .25kd five matches in a row

🤣

i was in the kill cam screen more than i was playing

absolutely insane

id peak a corner and immediately get railed

[stiff pollen]

wait the game was crashing cause of the mackay helment?

[mental cave]

welcome to next gen gaming i guess

where helmets crash the game

[stiff pollen]

thats nuts

[atomic egret]

Maybe it's just too many MaKays mmkayyy...

[edgy oriole]

sometimes this game surprises me

does the helmet thing crash everyone or just the shitters using mackay?

[royal trail]

i wish we could change headgear on Falcks legendary adrenaline skin. want the skin but with the googles and mouthguard from another skin

[edgy oriole]

yuuuuuup. death to legendary skins

nvm just crushed

dumb af dude

[sharp marten]

I thought it was sweet that the bf devs said congrats cods devs

[edgy oriole]

im prolly just gonna extend my 1 day a week to a full season 2 break

[calm bison]

I’ve noticed another bug that might not have been mentioned

When using the plus system

The weapon icon in the bottom right doesn’t update correctly

For example

Let’s say you swap to the master key for the M5

Then you swap back

[arctic grove]

It sounds like something from The Onion but its actually true. DICE DOES IT AGAIN

[calm bison]

The icon on the bottom right still shows a masterkey

Oh pog I got Orbital

[arctic grove]

[royal swan]

When did a helmet skin cause issues lmao

[arctic grove]

Dice Moment

[violet meteor]

[lunar finch]

Idk but my skin

Oh wait u can just put the outfit back on even though the helmet is disabled 💀

Nice job Dice

Nvm im a schizzo

Wrong head gear

[worthy elbow]

Lmaoooo I thought that was a joke until I logged in just now

That's insane

[woven acorn]

after playing a game earlier the game now freezes when booting it up again. this is after ive completely shut down my pc too

thought removing the helmet had fixed it

they realising they're slowly gonna have to remove the update bit by bit lmao

[timber wasp]

Would rather have the update removed then add it again after it's stable

[woven acorn]

yep

ill go back to the older battlefields maybe

[timber wasp]

A lot of people can't play rn because of the new update,I barely got into a match and it was lagging like crazy

[woven acorn]

remind myself of the good days

[timber wasp]

Fr

Bf4 still lively

[drowsy shuttle]

EA about to pull the plug

[woven acorn]

i haven't been able to play since the update until now, but after 1 match i cant play anymorer because of the freezing

I miss BC2

[timber wasp]

Ngl best part of this bf is portal

Cus u get to play the older maps lol

[woven acorn]

absolutely, and its the least utilised mode smfh

i mean they do feature regular modes, but the lack of updates to it is dissapointing

[timber wasp]

Fr

They should just add more portal weapons and maps from the older games

Maybe even bf1 and 5

[woven acorn]

a season dedicated to portal would be incredible

[timber wasp]

I hope classes will bring some good changes to the combat

I don't like specialists,just doesn't make sense

[lunar finch]

Im going to cry

[fiery sluice]

[worthy elbow]

[pure frost]

i hope the game will be playable soon

[dire quest]

Modern warfare 2 has 2 32v32 modes and weird enough both play better than 2042

[lunar finch]

32v32 is mid

64v64 bettwr

[dire quest]

What's cool is one is ground war which is 32v32 players, the other is invasion. Which is 20 players + 12 ai on each team

Modern warfare 2 ai > 2042 ai

[lunar finch]

Idk why people enjoy ai modes in pvp shooters?

They both arent good imo

Killing ai is just annoying for me. I want to play against real players

[granite island]

A visually good looking map

I hope

Where all characters are good

Since most maps mackay and sundance are best

[hardy crow]

It's stupid that reviving will overrule another interaction in progress

Was disarming a bomb and my squadmates corpse landed in front of me so it cancelled the defuse

[dire quest]

Good Soldiers Never Leave A Man Behind!

[edgy oriole]

i like killing pve scavs in tarkov. those bastards.

[dire quest]

[hardy crow]

Good soldiers dont interrupt PTFO with their flying dead body

[dire quest]

Try telling that to your commander irl war

[hardy crow]

Goddamn could this game not freeze every time I want to leave shitty team

[edgy oriole]

its been freezing for 3 weeks.

[hardy crow]

Longer than that

I'm talking about the black screen that it gets stuck on when you leave a server

[edgy oriole]

you know dice is prolly the best at fumbling the bag

all they had to do was not break the game

do a free weekend or free week

and profit

[errant scarab]

A love letter for fans

[edgy oriole]

pls bro

the love letter shit died out at release when we found out 98% of the community couldnt read

[arctic grove]

Yoooo!!

i am sooo fucking tired. Of squad mates not listening as well as squad leaders not giving out orders. Nada

Looking to team up with people with mics

[wide shore]

Oh jeez. Mercury is back

[arctic grove]

feel free to DM me

Dont be shy

Not sure if its cross play but im on xbox series s

[lunar finch]

I can get behind that since the game is built around it but pve in a primarily pvp game is wack

[edgy oriole]

i agree. i think i touched solo mode maybe 2-3 times for testing settings.

every play style is head to head until there is a mackay in the mix

hard to compete against someone who strafes faster than any hero

[woven acorn]

it is cross play, and yeah squad play has gone down the shitter

[hardy crow]

Welp
Got the out of bounds glitch where when retreating in rush/bt it says you're out bounds after you've reached the next sector and then you die

Then I chose to spawn in spawn and it put me right behind that enemy line and I shot 4 guys in the back

[silk surge]

Nightbird is so fun to use on Orbital. There are so many cracks and crevises you can evade other helis from

I killed the same stealth heli pilot 5 times.

[kindred flint]

smh this is not a based take its only better if the game is actually well designed

[silk surge]

Exposure is 128p at its peak

[arctic grove]

Can new gen users still play with old gen since they removed 128 lobbies

[lunar finch]

If ur on next gen u have to download the last gen version to play with them

[quiet shell]

Damn, unironically playing ground war on MW2 makes me want to go back to 2042

[fiery dawn]

lmao I'm feeling that too ngl

[quiet shell]

Y'see, Ground War is just chaos

2042 is controlled chaos

I can control a capture point in 2042 with the right positioning and skill

I can't do that in ground war

[wide shore]

I can’t get a win to save my life today

Every game I’ve played has been an absolute wash

[shell ermine]

Eh

[slender isle]

That’s cause ground war is actually just a worse and bigger cod domination

[queen trout]

No offense to y’all pc players but f y’all pc players brooo

Y’all don’t miss fa 💩

[quiet shell]

I miss all the time

[queen trout]

Cap

[quiet shell]

correction: The game makes me miss so that console players stand a better chance

[shell ermine]

surejan.gif

[queen trout]

You really 🧢 now 😂

[arctic grove]

At least us Console players dont crash and burn like PC players lmao

[ivory canopy]

Yea I can't exactly deny that considering how frequently my game has crashed since this update.

[arctic grove]

Tried to tell people ground war was still not a CQ replacement

[arctic grove]

Late reply I know but… sigh Idk I did experience one match where someone was kind enough to listen to my orders as “squad leader” He actually said in the match text that it was fun treking across the map in a “Hummer” or whatever. I still think its so fuckin fun following orders too. Asking for orders. Makes you feel like you’re in the shit, getting shit done. No “I” in “Team”

[arctic grove]

Reworks with 64vs64 >

[shell ermine]

Sector "Conquest" isn't a Conquest replacement.

[formal knot]

bla bla 😉

[cyan zinc]

yo. is anyone having low GPU utilization running BF2042? im getting roughly 60% utilization no matter what i do. I get 100% in other games. I've already done power settings in windows, Nvidia control panel 3D settings, DOF & DX12 in the pro_save file. I'm running a 3080ti and 5900x and getting 140ish fps on a 1080p monitor.. trying to unlock these 390hz..

[edgy oriole]

well i cant even play the game so hope that helps

[cyan zinc]

crashing bug?

[edgy oriole]

yeah for 3 weeks now

theyll fix it when season ends im assuming

[cyan zinc]

I had it for a bit but went away. i'm sure you've tried all the "fixes"?

[edgy oriole]

im not fixing anything. thats their job. im done after 1 full install.

[cyan zinc]

fair enough.. if you don't wanna play that bad

[cyan zinc]

I had some buddies try different things that resolved the issue. simple stuff. but i get your point

[edgy oriole]

it started off as EAC then went on after. it did good for 1 day after i did the full install. i dont have the internet to do that everyday.

ive only been doing weekly resets since start of pre season so im fine with retiring until next bf.

maybe theyll learn to add more maps and not break the game from cosmetics by then

[arctic grove]

They found an issue with a mackay helmet it seems

Honestly it’s a bizarre bug but it seems plausible

[warped pulsar]

So what's the verdict for MW2? Now that it officially launched. We getting any only in COD Moments?

[edgy oriole]

wtf is only in cod moments

[arctic grove]

People attempting to blend CoD and Battlefield

[warped pulsar]

When I played GW it was a very stiff experience, Seeing a tank unable to break through a thin fence hurt my eyes

[arctic grove]

Only people who say GW is better than Battlefield Conquest haven’t played Conquest

[arctic grove]

I feel like this implies that something about MW2 either reminds you of Battlefield or you associate it with a what 2042 could’ve been type of thing

[arctic grove]

I Like it

There any milsim groups on here

[mental cave]

i like MW2 but jesus christ are people sweating on the game

[warped pulsar]

I'm referring to the people who say that MW2 Ground war is a superior experience to BF. In my eyes, it's just larger scale cod, but in no way can match the free sandbox experience of BF.

[mental cave]

ground war is wack lol

who tf likes that shit

[arctic grove]

Oh yeah no worries, I meant to phrase it like a question

[warped pulsar]

Like if you put several COD gameplays next to each other, they look the same in most cases, but put different BF games and each one looks so radically different.

[drowsy shuttle]

ground war is shit compared to battlefield. the unique feeling of battlefield all out war is unmatchable. theres only one cool feature in ground war... the fact you can walk inside the choppers.

[arctic grove]

Wait

What did they remove the Mackay helmet for?

[warped pulsar]

It was causing the game to freeze/crash

[arctic grove]

It still does tho

According to players on pc

[ivory canopy]

I'm still getting crashing

[warped pulsar]

For me the game stopped crashing, maybe if I play it long enough it may crash, but before the removal I was crashing like 2 min in, all the time. So maybe it will take longer for me

[ivory canopy]

Well I've crashed once so far

[calm bison]

I gotta be honest

The ACWR slaps

I don’t know what’s so bad about it

[ivory canopy]

I'm not a fan

I find it has way too much dispersion

[calm bison]

I am a little biased since i loved it in BF4

[ivory canopy]

I did too

[calm bison]

But the bullet spread isn’t too bad

[ivory canopy]

It's not nearly as bad as the Krinkov but I've handled better in AOW

[lunar finch]

me downloading single player games knowing damn well im never gonna play them and just play 2042.

[ivory canopy]

Just play Lotus Land Story

👍

[lunar finch]

Never heard of that

[warped pulsar]

Cyberpunk is pretty spicy single player

[shell ermine]

Its awful

Still

[lunar finch]

Yeah i love cyberpunk i just forget to play it

[shell ermine]

Don't believe the lies

[lunar finch]

Please no bad opinions tonight 😦

[arctic grove]

I appreciated that feature a little bit too much in the beta not gonna lie

[lunar finch]

2077 is the first RPG game ive ever played and its really good

[arctic grove]

Was trying to use LMGs Vietnam door gunner style

[warped pulsar]

I hope the DLC is good

[lunar finch]

Yeahh

Trying to romance Kerry rn on my second playthrough

[hearty flame]

panam is goat

[lunar finch]

Im real close, just a couple more quest

[hearty flame]

wish 2077 would get more expacs like witcher 3 did

[lunar finch]

Ive never played the witcher but yeah i hope so

Maybe theyll change their mind

[hearty flame]

Ya i just think they hit the end of the road with their inhouse engine

[ivory canopy]

M35.08 with the Ghostmaker

Very close to T1 badge

[sharp marten]

Burger

[nova mirage]

I haven't been on this server for a while. Does anyone know if there are plans to add destruction to battlefield 2042?

[kindred flint]

0-300 loss in exodus...why are people still trash at the game when its almost november 2022?

[verbal trout]

love the new halloween update where i turn completely invisibile... i guess i should start believing in ghosts lmao

the best part is that enemies turn invisible too

is this a known bug or just me?

[modest tundra]

Guys, I found some portal experiences made by Chinese authors.

These experiences include Frontline Mode and Pigeon Mode.

It's a slight pity that these portal experiences don't seem to be updated

[queen trout]

Why is bf congratulating cod on launch 😆

[errant bone]

Maybe because they want to congratulate a fellow game company?

[modest tundra]

i saw that on twitter, that`s funny. lmao

[queen trout]

F that damn company

[cosmic sequoia]

why do the maps not have fucking neutral AA guns at them like every bf4 map ever?

im so tired of stealth choppers being in my fucking spawn

[errant bone]

Cod? Why?

[errant bone]

Prolly because it's easier to shoot down things in this game with infantry

[modest tundra]

Any weapon originally intended for air defense, for anti-infantry is also excellent.lmao

[cosmic sequoia]

they were unable to move

infantry would never really be at the receiving end of the fire

[modest tundra]

As long as you can shoot, you don't even need to move

[queen trout]

They just been puttin me through it these last few years

[hexed mango]

nice, carpo takes good images

watching the WS > 2042

the world series

⚾

[edgy oriole]

[hexed mango]

no

mr texas man

[edgy oriole]

i saw a clip of baseball on instagram the other day

even the funny parts are boring

[hexed mango]

for work or nah

[edgy oriole]

technically i was at work, but i was on lunch

[hexed mango]

ok but you don’t truly ✨understand ✨

[edgy oriole]

this coach got ejected from the game and he put on a fake mustache and came back

[hexed mango]

you also think that this person is pretty

[edgy oriole]

[worthy elbow]

People complaining about mw2 crashes feel our pain

[hexed mango]

so i don’t trust what you say

[edgy oriole]

the ketamine queen

[hexed mango]

i haven’t had mw2 crash yet

but i bet after saying that it’ll crash sometime

[edgy oriole]

of course you dont trust me bc you enjoy men in skin tight pants

[hexed mango]

like who

[worthy elbow]

🤞

[errant bone]

it crashes when squadding up with more than 3 people for me

[scenic perch]

Hey, my game is crashing on launch? It opens the small black window and just closes, no error.

[hexed mango]

well good for me i don’t have friends

[scenic perch]

I haven't played in about 1 month.

Any ideas?

[hexed mango]

broke ass game ass

[edgy oriole]

gotta wait for when they fix it

who knows when that will be

[next onyx]

They've found a possible lead.

[hexed mango]

it was joe

[edgy oriole]

theyll prolly fix it after season ends tbh

[hexed mango]

all along! it was joe

[next onyx]

Screw you pavlov.

[hexed mango]

[edgy oriole]

maybe it was another head cosmetic

[hexed mango]

ok way not my fault it’s joe

joe mother that is

[next onyx]

My friends are having lots of issues on mw2 ironically. Unsurprisingly.

[edgy oriole]

maybe sundance shoe glares a certain way that destroys the game

[hexed mango]

lol well i guess i’m just lucky

[next onyx]

I once had someone purposely crash my game back at bf5.

Fucking dumb.

[hexed mango]

[next onyx]

Yeah turns out he wasn't happy he someone stood up to his bullshit.

[hardy crow]

Did they take out grapple hooking to vehicles?

[hexed mango]

[edgy oriole]

they shouldnt have

[hexed mango]

to my knowledge they didn’t but i guess my knowledge is equal to that of what i don’t know

[hardy crow]

I had a chopper 15 feet above me and could hook to it for the life of me

[edgy oriole]

i also dont know bc i cant play the game for 3 weeks

[hexed mango]

maybe you missed

[worthy elbow]

Hook works 90% of the time

[hexed mango]

[next onyx]

You can still attach to vehicles with the grappling hook.

[worthy elbow]

10% you're fucked

[hardy crow]

Haven't played Mackay much lately

[hexed mango]

[next onyx]

Mackay needs to be tuned.

He's too good.

[hexed mango]

yes way we know

[worthy elbow]

I play Mackay everyday and the hook works like a Crack addict

[hexed mango]

you only talk about it 10 times a day

[edgy oriole]

and weve been ssaying it since launch

[hardy crow]

I mean he is

[edgy oriole]

mackay being op broken is not new

[worthy elbow]

Give him new passive, add attachment for strafe speed

[hexed mango]

and dice said they are aware of further tuning needed they just haven’t done anything yet (source: #948574259209437264 blog from recent)

[hardy crow]

I put off T1ing him so long because it was kinda boring how good he is

[edgy oriole]

they wont touch him.

[hexed mango]

joe already did

[next onyx]

What annoys me more is that he's the only one with an increased ads movement speed.

[edgy oriole]

but mackay is a grown man

[next onyx]

Why not give assault a 60% increase in movement speed with assault rifles and tune back nimble to allow faster mantling or some shit.

[edgy oriole]

wait

[hexed mango]

remember this takes place 20 years in the future

[worthy elbow]

Other specialists are unplayable with their slow asf strafe

[edgy oriole]

joe touched mackay confirmed

[worthy elbow]

Didn't know everyone else was a juggernaut

[next onyx]

When you get too used to Mackay all the others just feel so slow.

[edgy oriole]

SNIFFED

[next onyx]

Irish is the only one I can play.

Asides from Mackay.

[hexed mango]

mw2 feels more fun ngl
just feels much more tuned overall, much more technically sound

[worthy elbow]

If falck had mackays strafe I would only play here tbh

[edgy oriole]

mw22 sound def top notch,

[hexed mango]

fr fr

and animations

[edgy oriole]

not gonna spend 70 on sound tho

[worthy elbow]

Refunded mw22 didn't like it but I'm getting fomo

[edgy oriole]

FUCK ANIMATIONS

[hexed mango]

guns feel really nice

[edgy oriole]

animations kills games

[hexed mango]

you underestimate how nice good animations are

[edgy oriole]

fire all animators. rebuild

[lone void]

Bro is wildin fr

Animations epic

[next onyx]

Oh yeah echo did you see.

[hexed mango]

no

[next onyx]

I hit 10k kills with the m5a3 finally.

[lone void]

Yeah Mw2 is really good I like it

[hexed mango]

i am blind

[edgy oriole]

lemme take 5k years to do one thing bc animators want it to look "cool"

[hexed mango]

damn

[next onyx]

Pain.

[eager spire]

MW22 definitely looks like a video game

[ivory canopy]

I recently switched to Rao because I want to spite stealth helos

[hexed mango]

i feel bad for you

[next onyx]

It was fun. I just felt the burn.

[worthy elbow]

Rao gang

[warm mesa]

rao deserves a buff tbh

[next onyx]

But now I'm gonna try 5k ak24.

[hexed mango]

yeah i’ve been feeling the burn too much

[worthy elbow]

100%

[next onyx]

Rao does not need a buff.

[edgy oriole]

im still around 1.8kish for m5

[hexed mango]

i just want to get tier 100 and then i’m done till class update lol

[lone void]

Rao is fine

[eager spire]

how would you even buff Rao, really?

[edgy oriole]

but i also only play the game for 3 hours a week

[hexed mango]

unless S3 content is Really good

[eager spire]

How would you do that without making him incredibly fucking annoying?

[ivory canopy]

I played Lis and Angel

[next onyx]

Probably more range or decreased hack speed or some dumb shit.

[ivory canopy]

But decided on a break from Angel and I can't aim TGM worth a damn

[warm mesa]

I just think he should be able to hack the environment better tbh

[eager spire]

that would achieve making him annoying

[warm mesa]

all he does is open doors and its kinda lame

[hexed mango]

uh he already does tho

[warm mesa]

ye but more

[edgy oriole]

im betting it will be cool for about a week

[warm mesa]

imo

[worthy elbow]

Rangeeee

[hexed mango]

he can hack turrets, rangers, people, irish stuff

[next onyx]

His interaction with the environment is limited in set what the developers do.

He hacks doors which is already massive.

[hexed mango]

and i mean the environment only has so many electronic things

[next onyx]

Yeah.

[hexed mango]

literally any control panel can be hacked

[ivory canopy]

Also can operate elevators

[warm mesa]

ig

[hexed mango]

exactly

[next onyx]

People don't realise how big it is hacking doors from the other side.

[edgy oriole]

i only enjoyed him when drones were broken.

he was my fav then

[lone void]

Rao is fine. As someone who got him T1 before he got broken, he is fine.

[next onyx]

I do think he needs a small adjustment to make him less annoying but eh.

[hexed mango]

rao was like my second T1, i think after mackay

[edgy oriole]

what happened to rao?

[hexed mango]

third*

[lone void]

Ammo crate glitch and meta

[edgy oriole]

what is this

[hexed mango]

Rao is bae

[worthy elbow]

Rao was my 3rd after falck and Mackay

[hexed mango]

same

falck was my first

[warm mesa]

I love rao's ability to mark enemies who damage you

[edgy oriole]

can rao hack ammo crates?

[hexed mango]

then mackay and then rao

[lone void]

I nearly have Paik and Falck

[worthy elbow]

Gigachad

[hexed mango]

no

[ivory canopy]

I haven't T1'd any specialist

[next onyx]

I'd rather not stress getting operators to tier 1.

[edgy oriole]

then what is the ammo crate glitch meta?

[ivory canopy]

I'm closest to doing so with Angel

[next onyx]

Asides maybe from Irish.

[hexed mango]

casper is rather easy

[next onyx]

But eh.

[lone void]

No, if someone destroyed an enemy ammo crate then any Rao nearby would spot the player who put it down

It was dumb

[next onyx]

Throw down ammo boxes circus.

[warm mesa]

Casper on stranded breakthrough as an attacker is ez grind to T1

[edgy oriole]

that doesnt sound too major bc you can tell where anyone is at all times

[ivory canopy]

Yea I know

[hexed mango]

fr

[lone void]

Sundance doodoo to grind T1

[ivory canopy]

Yea you gotta get a ton of k/a with their grenades

[edgy oriole]

I just use her AA nade.

everything else about her is trash

[warm mesa]

dozer is a bit annoying to master imo

always having to be up close

[lunar finch]

Got my PBX t1

[edgy oriole]

dozer is easy, but his playstyle is boring af

[warm mesa]

yeah

[ivory canopy]

Just seems hilarious to meme enemies with Dozer

[hexed mango]

fr

[warm mesa]

ong

[lunar finch]

And most dozer players are ass

[hexed mango]

dozer is the biggest meme

[edgy oriole]

shield is 1 hit. EZ money

[warm mesa]

dozer got some great outfits tho

[worthy elbow]

At least he doesn't have a flash on his shield

[lunar finch]

Lmao i was a prenerf blitz main

[worthy elbow]

Nooooooo lol

[ivory canopy]

When Irish becomes a support does that mean anyone he revives gets armor?

[lunar finch]

Ruined many peoples nights

[warm mesa]

I would hope not

[worthy elbow]

Me and my buddy would run blitz and mountaign forget how to spell it

[warm mesa]

armor on revive is annoying

[worthy elbow]

Shield rush

[ivory canopy]

Probably not 20 armor

[edgy oriole]

i think the post said something about changing his perk so i dont think he will

[tough wolf]

did they ghost nerf the GOL

fire rate is slower

[warm mesa]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[ivory canopy]

iirc it's still 45

[tough wolf]

so i havent played since monday

but the Sws10 used to fire slower than gol

and now its faster...

[placid echo]

I finally Lis to Tier 1

[warm mesa]

congrats 👏

[ivory canopy]

Can the next specialist be a swordsman who has a sword for a melee weapon instead of a knife?

[warm mesa]

melee deserves more love tbh

[next onyx]

The next operator is presumably assault.

Based off an old screenshot showing the new class layout. Crawford and the assault specialist were blanked out.

Better not have any annoying explosive shit.

[ivory canopy]

If the next specialist is assault, it'll probably be a pyro

[modest tundra]

guys ,how about add "spiderman" into portal experience?

[next onyx]

That sounds fun.

[modest tundra]

make player keep swinging between buildings .

[ivory canopy]

Specialty: they carry a flamethrower and have resistance to extreme temperatures (not totally immune).

[next onyx]

I was thinking of something where for their passive they're immune to lingering pools of fire and the stun effects of grenades. Like tac mask from black ops 2.

[ivory canopy]

Hmmmm

[edgy oriole]

that would be the worst hero

[ivory canopy]

Really?

[edgy oriole]

i would never use them

[next onyx]

Partially FR mask from hardline.

Throw fire bombs everywhere and charge people.

[ivory canopy]

But then where do they hail from?

[next onyx]

It was a legitimate tactic back on hardline.

[ivory canopy]

My guess is Australia

[next onyx]

An Australian operator would be nice.

But the mention of fire? If it's done I hope to fuck we don't get another bushfire.

As bad as it was from 2020.

Dice has a really bad habit of predicting events.

[ivory canopy]

irl? Yeah that would be bad.

[next onyx]

And or having some sort of correlation.

[modest tundra]

lmao

[ivory canopy]

They have a gun named M5A3 and the U.S. coincidentally names their new rifle M5

[next onyx]

Yeah.

The guys who do the weapons keep on track with that.

It's really cool.

[modest tundra]

This sticker laughed my ass off at the time

[ivory canopy]

But little known fact is that they actually named the rifle after Jamie Hyneman's workshop.

[next onyx]

Huh?

[arctic grove]

They did really good with 2042s guns, didn’t expect to see the mcx spear but turns out that’s the Army’s future rifle

[ivory canopy]

That was a lie.

[arctic grove]

It’s my favorite one lol

[next onyx]

I was confused.

[ivory canopy]

Ever watch Mythbusters?

[next onyx]

Yeah I did.

I just didn't understand the connection.

[ivory canopy]

Ah

[next onyx]

Hopefully it won't be scrapped like the xm8.

[arctic grove]

The mcx spear is more than likely what came from that original product, since the US likes to do modernization projects, cancel them, then make them but even better like 10-20 yrs later like we’re seeing with our new MBT replacement

[blissful bolt]

Anybody else annoyed by the Battlepass assignment for 6 Capture and Logistics ribbons in a round? I keep coming up one short.

[arctic grove]

Ah yeah, I’m also struggling with that one

Another hideous challenge, DICE loves to put them in every now and then

Generally the challenges are really good this week, I completed all but 2 in one night just abusing the SVK

Really passive stuff

[wide shore]

I did it randomly on a game on conquest manifest. Just play the objective, and use Angel or Falck and heal/give ammo a lot.

[warm mesa]

same here man 😔

[arctic grove]

But… I can’t betray my beloved Mackay ads speed bonus

[next onyx]

I got it done but that's just because the matches I've been playing have been close.

[wise salmon]

Does anybody have any advice on how to get the 1942 weapons easier? I'm finding it nearly impossible to get them

DICE doesn't allow us to use AI to get them, unlike the vault weapons which allows us to

Meaning you can only unlock the wep assignments by killing players

But it's almost impossible when I can't find a single lobby that has people playing 1942 guns

[arctic grove]

The chances of that are honestly super low. People barely run anything but 2042 hardcore or xp farms anyways, especially just to spend time getting guns you can only use in that specific portal eras games

[wise salmon]

It really sucks tbh

I just wanna use the m2 carbine and the bren

I'm actually at 98 out of 100 kills to unlock the m2 carbine

The 1942 gun selection is very limited

So I feel getting those 2 new guns will at least give me more options in my playstyles

[arctic grove]

Yea it needs to be adjusted by the devs to maybe work for bots, otherwise it’ll take a lot of unnecessary time

[wise salmon]

Luckily the last 2 days they had the conquest mode that had all the different eras

But now its gone...

[arctic grove]

They do a little trolling

[wise salmon]

Yeah they gave me hope lmao

Then took it away the next day

I was able to get all the new bf3 and bc2 guns though that they added

Wish someone would make a 1942 free for all gamemode or something

[blissful bolt]

Sucks. It's not like unlocking things against bots really hurts anything. Having a good gun or good attachments means nothing if you yourself are bad with the gun. It really wouldn't be a problem and would give people something to work toward by themselves.

[wide shore]

Lucky. I played 4 matches in a row today where I lost by over 600

[blissful bolt]

My struggle is finding a squad. I have the worst luck with randoms.

[wide shore]

Randumbs are pretty dumb

[kindred flint]

died to a scar user...ping spammed him coming up stairs for my 2 squadmates, who then both died to the guy point blank

apparently calling them useless offended their feels greatly

[proud gorge]

So sad

Call them useless again

[eager spire]

oh yeah

apparently you can ping people after you die and your teammates have wallhacks. That's busted.

i don't think that's how that's supposed to work.

[kindred flint]

no need for that, my top place on the scoreboard cemented them being shitters

[junior pike]

🎉

I just slept and woke up to find out that I had won the lottery

[next onyx]

As annoyed as I get with those people. I'll only talk back if they talk shit in the chat.

[next onyx]

Let's fucking go!

[regal trail]

deleting all the files inside the Documents\Battlefield 2042\cache give me no more game freeze

[kindred flint]

well they also disabled a cosmetic piece that seems to have done it too

[wise salmon]

Fr

Like they allow us to use AI to get the vault weapons

But for some reason we can't when it comes to new portal weps

I just want the new weps

[kindred flint]

the cherry on top was when i downed next to them a minute later and the falck player decided to tbag just reinforcing my low opinion of them even more

[next onyx]

It seems to be linked to the skins from the liquidators event.

Some guy with the dozer skin crashed.

But that's sort of uh.

[kindred flint]

why am i not surprised literally the first ltm mode fucked the game

[next onyx]

Unconfirmed.

I don't understand how a bunch of skins causes crashes.

[kindred flint]

how you think the lone worker left on server infrastructure feels?

dude was already driven to be an alcoholic...now going to be a drug addict trying to figure this shit out

[next onyx]

Who knows.

[junior pike]

[jovial minnow]

[burnt flame]

is 2042 good now

[wide shore]

It’s ok

[burnt flame]

better than 4?

or 5?

[wide shore]

I like it more than 4. But I’m also not the right guy to ask about 4

I don’t like it as much as V

[burnt flame]

5 was my best game

4 my fav \tho

the futuristic vibe and all the different gadgets so cool

bf5 very simple tho

[queen trout]

Should I just get the premium pass

[burnt flame]

y

[queen trout]

Or the year

?

[burnt flame]

for 4?

[hexed mango]

i guess i did jinx it. mw2 is crashing left right and center now

@edgy oriole

its your fault

[edgy oriole]

i mean its a new game

[hexed mango]

2042 crashes

not a new game, is it?

[edgy oriole]

no its just trash

[hexed mango]

everytime mw2 crashes it does a steam update as well...
