battlefield-2042

[slender isle]

Stranded breakthrough would be yummy

Personal preference I guess

Squid G chaos when it’s 128p was fun

[cyan trout]

Sometimes it is important to ask if we should while asking if we can

[placid echo]

Wait, that's different

[azure basalt]

very different

[next onyx]

It is not a good sector.

[slender isle]

Sector 3 is the same as that one but using the 128p B flag and then the E flag

[wide shore]

Rush chaos is goated. Closest thing we still have to 128BT

I miss it man

[slender isle]

My point exactly lmao

I hope we get it even if it is a clusterfuck it’s fun

[wide shore]

I like the chaos. Love it, even

Just let us make BT in portal

[slender isle]

Imagine we get metro and 128p flashback breakthrough

[wide shore]

If they don’t wanna bother balancing it

I just wanna play 128bt again

I didn’t even really care for BT outside the pacific maps in BFV. I don’t like 64p BT in this game. It’s boring.

BF1 operations on the other hand.

[slender isle]

It’s not bad on good maps, like the new orbital, Kaleidoscope, renewal layouts and then stranded is pre good

I haven’t actually tried the rest recently

[wide shore]

It’s still just not the same.

[slender isle]

That’s true

128p breakthrough was super fun at launch

Maybe it was the flying hovercrafts though

[wide shore]

I mean, those were great

But the thing that made it so fun was the endless amount of enemies and just pure chaos

Same reason rush chaos is fun

[slender isle]

True that, even if we couldn’t win on Kaleidoscope or hourglass. The chaos was fun

[wide shore]

Just racking multikills defending the objectives. Mannnn

I won on kaleidoscope once.

[tardy tree]

i wish they kept 128 bt

that shit was wild

[wide shore]

It was amazing

[next onyx]

Last sector.

[royal swan]

Oh god

There isn't enough cover for that is there

[next onyx]

It's just a bad layout.

[white geyser]

They need to add breakthrough mode in the portal, ground superiority and rush didn't help me.

[wide shore]

I don’t think so

[next onyx]

God the 880 is AWFUL.

Yeah ok 01 buckshot makes the gun better.

Wait no its #4 buckshot.

Ah no wonder why #4 feels good, It does the most damage per pellet.

I think less pellets come out though.

But with the 880 it matters jot

Not.

[dusky token]

whats the best assault rifle in 2042?

[thorn helm]

the D12

[dusky token]

and is there a way to save attachment configuration between matches?

[dusky token]

dont have it unlocked yet i guess

[foggy halo]

You could’ve just googled it

But in the last time that I’ve played, it was the m5a3

[next onyx]

D12?

[foggy halo]

Which was a month ago

[next onyx]

The scar currently sits up top.

But the am40 is rising up in popularity.

[foggy halo]

Scar is a little bit too slow

[next onyx]

M16a3 is a great all rounder too. Better than the m5.

Yeah.

[foggy halo]

The rate of fire

I don’t like that

[dusky token]

i did but most results are from months ago

[next onyx]

Its 4hk carries it 74m out.

So that's where it does best.

Am40 and other faster firing guns slaughter it up close.

Well.

Any 5hk 800 rpm+ gun.

Or a 4hk 650.

[dusky token]

ah seems i need the battlepass for those guns?

[next onyx]

No.

Sort of. Am40 is an early unlock.

But it should be unlockable through an assignment when the season concludes.

[thorn helm]

why can i be shut up for Absolutely nothing but they/them cant?

[dusky token]

What makes it better than the M5?

fire rate im guessing?

[next onyx]

Fire rate and close range damage.

[slender isle]

2 headshot within 10m

[next onyx]

800 to 850 rpm with a 26 damage model within 10 metres.

[dusky token]

Which AR is the D12? I dont see any labelled it lol

[next onyx]

It's still a two headshot kill as long as it's dealing 22 damage.

Yeah I dunno what they mean by the d12.

[slender isle]

Ak12? Or the burst one?

Dp-12?

Is that the burst boy

[dusky token]

SCAR is the SFAR-M GL?

[next onyx]

Yes.

[thorn helm]

no on prop 3 yes to prop 2

this is Clone Commando Capt. Gregor I stand with myself and I approve this message.

[dusky token]

Right, I'll switch to the AM40 from the M5A3 to give it a shot. Ive been finding the M5A3 pretty solid but faster TTK would be nice

not gonna bother buying the season pass, game is practically dead in australia anyway, not worth it

[thorn helm]

bro remember interactive movies where you could choose left or right but think of my movie when it comes out it has WW2 1 & 3 flick feel to it you can choose between which planet i fight on/for its really sick idea an thought theres click on pause dialog

ina theory im practically richer then any man or country but i dont flaunt not my thing to be waerin gold id rather put it to use like its supposed

[lunar finch]

Lmaooo i just pissed off my team because this dude was tellin us to push and i said "instead of commanding the team lets worry about your kd being below 2"😭😭💀

Had the whole team on my neck

[thorn helm]

can you imgaine all the gems and jewerly wasted on coating it with other fake materials what a waste id rather see a super high power laser with gold conductors fqqn waste my shyt on

[next onyx]

Lots of OCE coming in huh.

[thorn helm]

yea same feel ya keep up the Goo Ooze work my Holmes

[lunar finch]

I just think if u have a below 2kd u need to keep ur comments about the team to yourseld

[slender isle]

OCE is more popular now than any other time in the life cycle other than launch

[thorn helm]

ocd LCD Same thing

[slender isle]

What if I’m solely a medic???

[lunar finch]

He then had the audacity to say "all those kills, ur the reason why we lost" ummm buddy ur the reason why we lost🤨

[lunar finch]

Nah ur the goat talk ur shit

[thorn helm]

you should always be training to be anything & everything

[next onyx]

LOL.

[lunar finch]

All medics have the pass to talk shit as long as they puttin in those rez's

[slender isle]

Fair enough fair enough

[next onyx]

What if they're killing and reviving.

That reminds me.

[lunar finch]

Falcks and angels with smoke grenades

[next onyx]

I was sitting on top of the roof top of d1 on renewal and survived longer than I should.

Dude I can't wait for Irish to be buffed cause he can make cover and revive people.

That will be so good.

[slender isle]

Irish W

[lunar finch]

I usually die to a bomber heli within 5 seconds on d1 roof

[next onyx]

You know antherm.

[slender isle]

Oh my god, Irish gets access to claymores

[next onyx]

I wonder how many people asides from you I gave people ptsd of a power sliding Irish.

[slender isle]

Probably every single person in those lobbies

[next onyx]

Claymores will be cancer but I'll be sure take advantage of it.

[lunar finch]

I refuse to believe irish players are real

[next onyx]

If we get armour it would be cool if it had a safety cap versus the.

Them.

Speak to Fish about my power sliding antics.

[thorn helm]

you know how the Germans and soviets were competing for the best cage Armor why didnt they just use rolled fencing like a chain-link fence now we can make it of tungsten coat with titanium inhered with 50-50% Mag. Alum.

[next onyx]

I'm a real Irish player.

And he is my favourite.

Utility wise.

[lunar finch]

Im so sorry to hear that

Jk

[next onyx]

[lunar finch]

I just cant find any of the specialist playable without mackays ads speed

[next onyx]

Due to pokemon I've sort of understood the need of utility.

[lunar finch]

Feels like im playing r6 without it

[next onyx]

To be honest.

They need to nerf nimble and make it a spread out perk

It's a clutch perk and it is a problem.

[lunar finch]

But haha funny crouch spam while strafing

Its so balanced... right guys?

[thorn helm]

amplifying a Magnetic field is possible

Liquid agitated gently in a rotating tank can significantly amplify a magnetic field.Apr 29, 2011

[next onyx]

They should give assault a perk solely with assault rifles for a 40% to 60% faster ads speed.

[slender isle]

Irish just sits behind a shield and stops all incoming nades/rockets

[next onyx]

40% is probably more reasonable.

Weapon proficiencies is weird.

They should have specific perks not weapon class adjustments. Cause this is a headache to balance.

Will engineer with smgs and shotguns have better hipfire? Will support have better accuracy with lmgs? Etc.

[slender isle]

I’m hoping the class changes come with universal class perks instead of specialist perks. Mackay is the only good assault specialist for the killing thing. Liz is still the best engineer. Falk is still the best support, and rao is still the best recon. These are just cause of the perks lmao

[slender isle]

That’s what they are doing

[next onyx]

We don't really know how they're doing it.

We just know that classes will have perks on their classes.

[lunar finch]

Me blowing up irish's trophy system with c5

[next onyx]

Yeah the aps blocks c5 now.

[slender isle]

It should stop C(

[next onyx]

Well it should.

My arms hurt.

[slender isle]

Has been the case since 1.1

[next onyx]

Gym go brr.

[lunar finch]

It stops c5 but if u blow it up right outside of its range it explodes it before it can destroy the c5

[slender isle]

Hmmmmm

I don’t use C5 often (cause I run armour on Mackay) but that’s cool

[next onyx]

Ugh.

[lunar finch]

C5 on mackay is the best

[next onyx]

I run ammo box.

C4 is just cheap.

[lunar finch]

It feels kinda cheap to use though, c5 is the ultimate kd patcher lmao

[next onyx]

The kill range and throw range is absurd.

Yeah it's amazing it's been balanced like that.

It's cancer.

[thorn helm]

C-4
Mass 1.25 lb (0.57 kg)

[lunar finch]

Me winning a 1v3 gunfight i shouldnt be winning because i can throw c5 through a door way:

[thorn helm]

Human athletes can achieve throwing speeds close to 145 km/h (90 mph), far in excess of the maximal speed attainable by chimpanzees, at about 30 km/h (20 mph). This ability reflects the ability of the human shoulder muscles and tendons to store elasticity until it is needed to propel an object.

[lunar finch]

Yk as a Mackay main when I really think about it, Mackay's entire kit is just unfair lmao. He breaks the entire game with his grapple, you win so many gun fights because you are playing Mackay and that's it, not to mention the ways you can use the grapple so there's no cooldown or a shorter one.

U get like a 25% shorter cool down by putting the grapple away before you mantle lmao, Dice really didn't think about Mackay when they made him

Or the less fall damage when u fall after using the grapple

[dusky token]

anti-armour 1 shot kill, man this game hates vehicles

[thorn helm]

https://tenor.com/view/クロノクロス-chrono-cross-green-dragon-squaresoft-dragonian-gif-20940356

the things i would do for a BF2042 Dice HardDrive

what back market could i look for a aera 51 SSD from 1900's to 2022 with technological advancements from Microwaves to refrigeration? all sorted out in separate years and files?

[copper fulcrum]

Either your vehicle was weak already or you had some kind of explosive strapped to your vehicle beforehand.

Or you're in a Tuk-Tuk

[dusky token]

I was in a MBT full health

[copper fulcrum]

Likely had explosives strapped on beforehand. They could've put C5 on you and then used the Anti-Armor to detonate it

or a friendly had put anti-tank mines near you and the anti-armor detonated it, etc.

[fiery dawn]

I wish there was an MP7 and an MP5 in 2042

[slender isle]

You and me both

[thorn helm]

guess what I wish?

Tribal State Chimpz chuck plasma that'll stuck
give ayae asthma
whereas the
Italiana back to mexicana
or americana in Havana
burn in the savannah
or just drown in a Mariana

[silver lantern]

Still waiting for them falck feet pics

[fiery dawn]

[next onyx]

M5k.

I just realised .

Extended mag laser m5k sounds amazing.

[robust ember]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[errant scarab]

Falk onlyfans

[low timber]

Pretty much every explosive has an absurd kill range.

[tame vine]

the old voice lines would fit perfectly 💀

[tame cobalt]

I've said it before, in battlefield a class shouldn't be designed to have a role of "be the best infantry killer", because killing infantry is a COMMON role that should be shared equally by EVERY CLASS, and then the class role should be some unique extra thing that goes on top of that...

[slender isle]

Do you think the roles should be separated like: medic, support, engineer, recon

[tame cobalt]

Perhaps

Problem is the specialists weren't designed with that categorisation in mind

[slender isle]

The class that gets assault rifles locked to it will always be superior. So weapon locks will never work for how you’d like it.

[tame cobalt]

Yes

[slender isle]

So no weapon lock?

[tame cobalt]

I don't think medics/support should have snipers

Medic especially

[slender isle]

Fair enough

[tame cobalt]

When u use a sniper, you are not playing the medic role

[slender isle]

Yeah that’s very true

[formal imp]

When Spas-12?

[slender isle]

Probably update 3.0 (next update)

[tame cobalt]

Nov 22

[next onyx]

A role that is best at killing infantry is fine.

that's always been how it works.

Don't understand the issue against that.

[slender isle]

Everyone then plays that class

I think that’s the issue

[next onyx]

I get that point of view.

Someone like Mackay should indeed be brought down a little.

However.

As a whole those classes still are balanced without being too much.

Sundance is literally that example.

.Their grenades deal lots of a damage sure but they're not overbearing.

[slender isle]

Sundance at launch

[next onyx]

No one was adjusted to them.

[eager spire]

I agree with Joe, I don’t think there should be a specific class that their job is killing infantry, like I feel like that’s something everyone should be doing.

[slender isle]

Bf1 kinda had it down

[next onyx]

If it weren't for the ADS strafe speed Mackay would be better.

His grappling hook alone is massive.

[eager spire]

Yeah but BF1 has other issues.

[next onyx]

IF he scavenged more ammo and or had bhetter interactions with mantling he wouldn't be tht much of a problem.

[slender isle]

True

But assault being the AT class, medic being the mid range medic class, support being the suppression unit and also ammo man, and then recon is well recon

If we give each class competitive weaponry then everyone can kill

The only reason Mackay is picked is cause of the strafe speed, if everyone could strafe it’d be balanced and if no one could strafe it would also be balanced

[eager spire]

i kinda wish you could change like, fundamental mechanics in BF games, I wonder how BF1 would play if the slide was never nerfed past the first nerf, and suppression wasn't a thing.

[slender isle]

Suppression makes a lot of guns unusable

[eager spire]

yeah. which is why i advocate for it's removal.

[slender isle]

But also, bf1 movement kinda doo doo

[next onyx]

People be like "Oh but it keeps your head down" yeah my head is kept down anyhways why should I be punished for wanting to fight back?

[eager spire]

I hate being punished because some dipshit missed me

[next onyx]

It just awards people for bad accuracy and you cannot convince me otherwise.

[slender isle]

It’s almost impossible to snipe in bf1 just due to my bullets going sideways when a single bullet goes over my head

[eager spire]

It is. the first slide nerf was justified, but everything else was just due to people whining about people using sliding offensively.

which is ridiculous, you should be able to do that in an FPS game with sliding.

If you can't why have it at all.

[tame vine]

What if strafe speed is actually weapon proficiency, and mackay got a different perk like faster sprint or somethin else
So like faster strafe if you use sniper as recon, or lmg as support and so on
It would make players pick weapons that define their class more

[slender isle]

I mainly use sliding now to get into a craters lmao

[next onyx]

https://youtu.be/ONUskCFxqMo

[dusky token]

I'm on Arcia Harbor and a building fell over and killed my tank

💀

[eager spire]

I've talked to people that weren't even aware sliding was a thing

because it's so useless

[slender isle]

I agree there, just remove mackays strafe lmao

[next onyx]

Yo stella yeah I've been looking at that as well.

Make it an assault class thing with assault rifles.

[eager spire]

Like, the first slide nerf made it so you can slide once and get the speed benefits from doing so, but if you try to slide immediately after that, you get penalized in the form of a slowdown. That's fine. That's justified. They did not need to nerf the slide more than once.

[next onyx]

50% faster movement speed or something.

[eager spire]

But no apparently they nerfed it like 3 times.

I don't know why.

[slender isle]

I was gonna say, bf1 now feels so clunky compared to launch

[tame vine]

mm hmm, there's not much else to do for proficiency without changing weapon stats

[eager spire]

oh yeah launch sliding was entirely unnerfed. I never got to experience that, but I'm sure it was fantastic.

[next onyx]

I was thinking for engineer what about better hipfire for SMG's.

[slender isle]

Faster ads, faster ready time, longer breath hold, less recoil

[next onyx]

It's so weird.

[slender isle]

Hipfire too

[next onyx]

Faster ADS and Sprint out time might be pushing.

I was thinking for recon maybe they have increased accuracy with their guns while stationary and on the move with DMR's and Snipers.

[slender isle]

Faster ads for snipers on recon wouldn’t be bad

[mossy island]

yo have a question about BF1 since i just installed the game and found something rather odd, i'd say,

may i?

[eager spire]

sure

[mossy island]

so i played it for the first time, finished the intro and the intro only

[slender isle]

Mhm mhm

[mossy island]

then i noticed that i have 27 of these crates thingy

[slender isle]

Oh yeah, comes with the revolution edition

Got skins in it etc

[eager spire]

Steam version comes with all the DLC which includes those crates.

[mossy island]

i mean, 27 of them for doing nothing. is that normal?

[eager spire]

yes that's normal

[mossy island]

ahh i sea i sea

[eager spire]

you basically have the Premium version of the game

[mossy island]

i opened 23 of them then my game disconnects from the server on the 24th

i thought i was being hacked or som'n

turns out that the server is on maintenance, what are the odds lol

thx tho

[eager spire]

yeah, BF1 has been experiencing a bit of a boom lately

which is cool i just wish it was a better game

[balmy turtle]

a remaster for it that includes some aspects introduced in BFV would be fuckin amazing imo

[delicate bay]

2042 also down 😄

[balmy turtle]

2042 is still up

playing rn

[eager spire]

not BFV's gunplay though.

[delicate bay]

dont restart then

logon server is ded

[balmy turtle]

i like bf1s gunplay just the way it is

[eager spire]

just the movement and no suppression

[mossy island]

i thought me opening dem free crates consecutively got me banned or somthiong, got me scared for a bit there

[balmy turtle]

i think the reinforcement system would be great in the WW1 setting

the constructing aspects

[next onyx]

They remove random recoil from bf5, Alongside health attrition and they'd be set.

[balmy turtle]

the movement in BFV while nice i feel would be like

too out of place in BF1

[eager spire]

I don't agree

[balmy turtle]

like maybe some parts of it

but I do like that BF1 is a bit more grounded

[eager spire]

eh

[balmy turtle]

both are nice in their own regards but i wouldnt want bf1 to stray too far from where it's always been

[eager spire]

BF1's movement is slow and clunky. They nerfed sliding way too much.

[balmy turtle]

well yeah

but would people slidin all over the damn place COD style really feel right in a WW1 setting?

i dont think so at all

[eager spire]

I don't really care

Like, it would make for more interesting infantry gameplay

and that's really all i care about

because right now the game is mostly positioning based and that's not really fun

[balmy turtle]

some modernization in a BF1 remaster would be nice, but I wouldn't want it to be at the cost of the immersion

[eager spire]

eh

[balmy turtle]

I love the melee combat in BF1 for sure though

[eager spire]

I feel like BF1 went too far into the immersion at the expense of gameplay.

[balmy turtle]

well that's why some people don't like the game, but why other people absolutely love it

which isn't a bad thing tbh

[eager spire]

BF1's melee combat is nothing spectacular, like it's literally lock-on when you hit the melee button.

[balmy turtle]

cause other people can go enjoy the BF games that do fit their taste

[balmy turtle]

it's way more optimal to melee in BF1 than any other BF game

it's a viable tactic

[eager spire]

yes because it literally locks on to the nearest person

[balmy turtle]

if used right

[eager spire]

there's nothing to that.

[mossy island]

wdym by this tho? i heard peeps really like bf1 compared to the other bfs, the newer ones especially. idk much about them since i've only played bf3 and 4. then bf1

[balmy turtle]

I know but it's not an instant kill unless low heatlh

[eager spire]

still locks on

[balmy turtle]

that's not really a bad thing

[balmy turtle]

some people dont like it for some fair reasons

[eager spire]

I am well aware of people really liking BF1 compared to the other BF's, however i have a lot of issues with it that i've found over the course of me playing it.

[balmy turtle]

yeah I absolutely love the game

but I understand what might throw other people off about it

[eager spire]

eh i think it is, i think it's a bit of a lazy approach to it.

[balmy turtle]

nothing that can be done about that really

[mossy island]

i sea, so it's coming down to personal preference here is it not?

[balmy turtle]

well how should it be done then

[balmy turtle]

^^

[eager spire]

well not locking on to the nearest person.

[balmy turtle]

some people love the BF3-BF4 style

[eager spire]

like hold on i'll grab the list

[balmy turtle]

BF1 was a completely fresh take and setting that hadn't been done in a triple A game before

[eager spire]

-Visual recoil exists. They removed it in BF4 due to it being distracting. Why on earth DICE decided to bring it back in this game, despite it having the same gunplay as BF4, is beyond me
-Multiple slide nerfs making the only unique movement feature the game has useless
-Suppression. This should be self explanatory.
-Massive overrepresentation of machineguns for a World War 1 game, on top of having blatant balance issues, Hellriegel and SMG08 in particular
-Sweet spots for Scout is a bad mechanic, and making it so bolts can't oneshot in close range was a mistake.
-Gas grenades damage people through floors and walls. They never fixed this.
-Lighting is fucked, it's practically impossible to see through windows if you have your brightness at higher than 50% in-game
-Elite classes are annoying and in the case of the Sentry, blatantly overpowered.
-LMG hipfire is way too effective
-They changed how Conquest and Domination work in an effort to make matches feel closer than they actually are, by making it so the team with the score advantage keeps scoring even after losing the majority of flags
-No test range like BF4. There was one made for BF1 Incursions, it was in CTE, they just never released it
-Perks that made it so grenades don't oneshot you, removing the distinction between the grenades by making most of them useless
-Nade spam is such a massive problem
-Medic SLR's have too much spread in my opinion
-No bullet tracers in first person

[mossy badge]

Dude copied this from reddit

[balmy turtle]

For the first part it doesn't bother me really, but I understand why it bothers others

[mossy island]

[balmy turtle]

The slide nerfs I don't care about, I don't see sliding as essential in a WW1 setting

mfs weren't slide canceling in the trenches

but you're forgetting the addition of vaulting high walls

that was added and a unique movement feature

[eager spire]

I see it as a waste of a movement mechanic because why make that entire mechanic only to render it useless?

[balmy turtle]

sliding was not the only one

[balmy turtle]

its a good way to duck down into cover in some situations

get yourself around a corner

[eager spire]

no it's not

it's so slow.

[balmy turtle]

not as a combat implement

[eager spire]

it's slow and nobody ever uses it.

[balmy turtle]

I do plenty of the time

[eager spire]

feel like you'd be better served just running around a corner and going prone but that's just me

[balmy turtle]

to transition from sprinting to crouching behind cover in front of me and firing

[balmy turtle]

either or

depends

[next onyx]

It was balanced before the second or third nerf.

[austere dirge]

boooo

[next onyx]

It didn't need a further adjustment.

[eager spire]

why are you booing me, i'm right.

[austere dirge]

BOOOOOO

[mossy island]

"sargeant, we got a situation"
"do speak private"
"none of out artilerry can hit this mfs"
"say what?"
"ye sarg, this mfs kept tap strafing our bullets, he's too powerful"

[eager spire]

why are you booing me.

[mossy island]

[next onyx]

Seriousl y though

[balmy turtle]

honestly the suppression and random bullet deviation are the biggest things that aren't good to me, but to be fair on those things, how would the game be if they didn't exist? you'd get lazer beamed across the map so much and it would suck ass

[eager spire]

The first nerf was justified. Every other nerf? Fuck off.

[next onyx]

Weapon velocities and long ranged dispersion affect their ranged performances.

[eager spire]

i mean it wouldn't happen if bipods didn't negate literally all ADS spread

[balmy turtle]

that too

[balmy turtle]

[next onyx]

You donm't need suppression or RBD to have balanced ranged play.

[austere dirge]

yeah i think smgs would end up being much more viable at a higher range of distance. kinda like how everyone and their mother runs around with an SMG in BFV

[next onyx]

SMG's at a range were weak.

[balmy turtle]

i saw this one vid of a dude jumping and turning sideways mid jump and the sniper shot went between his legs

was wild

[austere dirge]

i think i remember seeing that lol

[next onyx]

Their recoil and natural spread prohibited them becoming too effective.

In 5.

A rifle could easily outpace them.

[balmy turtle]

MP18 trench is one of my go to weapons in 1

[austere dirge]

counterpoint: im bad at BFV

[balmy turtle]

i can run that shit at mid range sometimes and tap fire at slightly longer distances

[next onyx]

You don't need suppression or RBD to balance gunplay as it creates more frustration.

You might be bad but that doesn't really change anything.

[austere dirge]

dont gotta deal with RBD at all if you simply pace your shots

[eager spire]

also RBD is just spread, can we just call it spread

[austere dirge]

^

[balmy turtle]

you don't NEED it, but I feel they'd have to overhaul EVERYTHING in order to remove these things and keep the game balanced

[eager spire]

no need to be confusing.

[balmy turtle]

well spread is one thing

[next onyx]

Spread is an annoying mechanic when it increases per shot to a crazy amount.

[eager spire]

they are both the same thing

[balmy turtle]

like a CSGO spray pattern that stays consistent

but isn't it like

actually random

[eager spire]

no that's not what spread is

[balmy turtle]

in BF1

[next onyx]

Like again, Recoil and velocity is how you can balance a gun.

[austere dirge]

as far as im concerned spread bloom and RBD are all the same thing

[next onyx]

You're not gonna use ap90 from 100M out.

A SCAR is best suited for that.

God I'm wasted.

[balmy turtle]

nice

[next onyx]

It's possible to steal a kill from that far out.

With a p90.

[austere dirge]

I too get on here under the influence sometimes

[next onyx]

But you'll waste more ammo than necessary.

[eager spire]

Nah, I don't think you'd need to overhaul everything. You'd just need to remove sweet spots from bolt actions and make it so LMG bipods don't negate all ADS spread.

[next onyx]

Ironically base spread is preferable to spread that increases per bullet in my experience.

[balmy turtle]

see now this comes down to personal preference again though

I kinda like the sweet spot mechanic

[eager spire]

so you kinda like not being good at sniping.

[balmy turtle]

because then the bolt actions aren't totally OP cause one shot chest shot at all ranges

[austere dirge]

counter point: one shotting people is epic

[eager spire]

that's not even true

[balmy turtle]

but it does allow for that one hit kill potential

[next onyx]

I get you prefer a SIPB silver cause of bf4 though.

[eager spire]

???

okay.

[balmy turtle]

SIPB?

[eager spire]

that's not even true

that's never been the case in any BF game ever

[balmy turtle]

I know

that's the point

it would be OP if it was like that

[eager spire]

Requiring headshots to oneshot at range is the best solution

[balmy turtle]

but its satisfying to drop an enemy with one shot

[eager spire]

ok so why not aim for the head.

[balmy turtle]

I mean it's best to do that

but it aint fully necessary now

[next onyx]

Spread increase per bullet.

[balmy turtle]

although the headshot sound in BF1 is the best one in the franchise

can we agree on that

lmao

[eager spire]

I don't agree i think it's always necessary

[balmy turtle]

i have no problem aiming upper body and sometimes hitting headshots or other times just popping off two body shots

I use infantry rifles a good bit

[eager spire]

and arguing that it isn't necessary is just arguing that you should be given a free pass for being worse at aiming as long as you hit 'em at a certain arbitrary range which seems stupid to me.

[balmy turtle]

gewehr 98 infantry is my jam

or the smle infantry

[balmy turtle]

it aint arbitrary

[eager spire]

yes it is

[balmy turtle]

it depends on the variant

[eager spire]

yes it is.

[balmy turtle]

okay imma just like

stop arguing here actually

well not arguing necessarily

discussing

cause it's clear we just disagree on a lot of stuff that once again comes down to personal preference

lol

so this is kinda pointless

agree to disagree

[eager spire]

i mean it is arbitrary, it varies between guns and variants for no good reason and that's not even how bullets work in the first place.

but okay

[balmy turtle]

🤷‍♂️

realistic? no not really

[mossy badge]

You talking to a person who thinks what he thinks is always right and he will disagree with everything you say
Dude complaint about everything and everyday
He always looking for argument

[balmy turtle]

but do I enjoy the mechanic sometimes?

yeah

but that's a matter of opinion so

[next onyx]

There's no need for that dud.

[mossy badge]

you wanted to type dude or my name 🤔

[thorn helm]

[dusky token]

best attachments for AM40?

[tall valley]

Warhawk compensator is must have. Drum Mag + New Laser, any optic you like

[dusky token]

Ok, gonna go into an XP farm server to get em. Cheers lad

[tall valley]

See you on the Battlefield, soldier 😗

[tame cobalt]

it has gotten a lot better and there are very promising updates ahead

wut

on steam?

[slender isle]

You’ll never see those on steam lmao

Unless the game turns into the amount of content bf4 has with the exact same systems people will not like it lmao

I’d recommend just checking out some vids from the past couple weeks, maybe levelcaps vid on update 2.2

[slender isle]

You can do it in a solo bot match

Saves you possibly getting banned lmao

[dusky token]

interesting

[tall valley]

Any1 know what is the unique attachments of the Legendary MCS-880? The Royal Prerogative skin. I cant find it anywhere on youtube or google, seems like no1 shows what it looks like in game

[low timber]

Doesn’t have any

[frank stratus]

Alive chat?

Nvm

[lone void]

Hey kid, ever killed a Ram with an EMP grenade

[low timber]

No, but I’ve killed a Bolte with the OP-V drone’s EMP blast.

[lone void]

Nice

It kinda shocked me cause I didn't know it was so low on health and I also had no idea EMP grenades did damage at all

[low timber]

Same, in the clip I even recorded I turned around after the blast and the looked back when I realized I got a kill.

[lone void]

I threw 2 grenades at it out of instinct

First one killed it

If I ever see "OP-V recon drone" in the kill feed I'm quitting

[stray python]

I can't see anyone in the game unless I use a super low fov like 60, all thanks to forced temporal anti aliasing, thanks dice 💩

[lunar edge]

When does the current season end?

[unkempt coral]

The weekly missions will end on the 21st

We are currently in week 11/12

Season 3 should start around that same time

[pine roost]

Modern graphics yay!

[low timber]

22nd

[unkempt coral]

Oops

I can't read a calendar

Thanks 😛 yes the 22nd

[low timber]

Next Tuesday we should get our first teases for S3

As S2’s first tease was exactly 7 days before it started

[lunar edge]

Cheers only got the game around week 7/8 😅 so wasn't sure

[sturdy prism]

Dunno why but i feel like the servers being down is a way to bring back players on bf2042

[slender isle]

That’s tin foil hat thinking

[sturdy prism]

Kind of lmao

[shy latch]

-6 days to S3 reveal

[next onyx]

I don't care what anyone thinks the Avancy's is overpowered.

[shy latch]

it is still op

should add more ads spread to be more balanced imo

[next onyx]

They need to give it actual recoil and get rid of its 4 HK range.

If they want to make it a ranged MG that's fine but don't give it so much power from close up.

It's just fucking cringe seeing people play with it.

[shy latch]

imo recoil it's ok, I mean it's a shorter version of a LMG, so for me it make sense that recoil is less and more manageable

otherwise if they will modify/overhaul the Avancys recoil they should do the same for the LCMG

[cosmic storm]

Ah yes, el classico conspiracy theory.
"Something like that doesn't happen often, so it's obviously something fishy"

[solid imp]

lol everyone thinks that already

[next onyx]

Fair.

But than again I don't really see much talk around it.

[solid imp]

It's an AR with a big box

I thought in the developer corner that featured Alex, he mentioned making some more changes to it after they observed the first nerf results

[royal mountain]

What is the requirements for content creator?

[solid imp]

Create content

Alright, I'll see myself out

[royal mountain]

Ok thanks Sir
But there are any Requirement like How many Followers

Views

?

[next onyx]

Yeah I have confidence they had a patch planned out.

But I wonder if it'll only come when the season is over.

Because of some weird stuff.

[unkempt coral]

no no, sarcasm is vitally important to any community - but especially battlefield

because ~90% of the community apparently doesn't understand sarcasm xD

[deep heron]

is there downtime in servers? i cant play on pc

[grizzled whale]

i wonder if there was an announcement about that

[deep heron]

ok i solved it. it was origin, uninstalled it and then installed ea launcher

[delicate hollow]

I hope they rework breakaway soon. That map is real annoying to play on sometimes

[quiet shell]

Breakaway and Hourglass are reported to be the next reworks

[delicate hollow]

Thank god

I feel like hourglass would be more fun if it involved more of the skyscrapers and stuff.

I really want like a big urban themed map like shanghai or bankjob

[frank stratus]

i read the last word something else 💀

[delicate hollow]

Yeah when are they bringing back blowjobs in battlefield wtf

[frank stratus]

It's a legitimate question

[arctic grove]

🤓 + check your username + not mod + when Falck bikini skin

[frank stratus]

didnt care, nothing wrong about username, better im not mod and no

Opinion rejected

Sounds about right

by you right? doesnt matter for the whole world

[arctic grove]

[arctic grove]

Nor does anything we say in this server matter for the whole world

[hexed mango]

[frank stratus]

exactly

[arctic grove]

Still

Why are you pretending to be someone

[frank stratus]

why not

[arctic grove]

Be original

[frank stratus]

no

[arctic grove]

Anyways I want new weapons

[delicate hollow]

I want the harpoon gun back

[arctic grove]

Fortnite moment

[still vault]

And I want Borses to be a real thing. But alas, we can't all get what we want.

[delicate hollow]

nah fuck that I want the tazer from hardline

[arctic grove]

Hord

[still vault]

Have you T1'ed all the current weapons?

[arctic grove]

Nope

[forest snow]

Mean the bots are better then some of the people I see in Pub lobbies

[still vault]

To be expected, sometimes I just test out stuff and act real weird in-game 😄

[ripe hedge]

I SAID WHAT

ah yes

i said that

[still vault]

Don't be ashamed of multiple personality disorder

It happens to the best of us

and all of me's

[tame cobalt]

New dev update video when

They're gonna announce vault vehicles in the next dev update video

[still vault]

Everything is going according to plan here. 1138 season pass points so far, so 12 left until seaon badge and there are 59 points up for grabs on Tuesday 🙂

[tame cobalt]

[still vault]

Guessing we will get info about season 3 sometimes between now and in 12 days when the season ends

[solid ferry]

for the prices we paid its insane we only get one new map a season

[errant scarab]

[chilly jacinth]

it's better than 0

[errant scarab]

Its better than -1

[chilly jacinth]

like many used to experience

[still vault]

I don't understand why maps take so many resources and take so long time to make. But apparently they do. And to be fair, if you look at large games and how many maps they release, they all take so long.

[arctic grove]

New specialist: a generic soldier

[still vault]

It's like no technical development in map making has taken place for over 10 years.

maps just get more complex but the tools to make the maps stayed the same

or something

[chilly jacinth]

Some companies and game engines haven't invested resources in speeding up the process

[arctic grove]

Yea but do dice devs know that sand isn't shiny

When it's dry

[still vault]

Many types of sand

[arctic grove]

That's the real question

[chilly jacinth]

UE5 for example has alot of good improvements for map making

[errant scarab]

take months to add bins and sandbag to some maps its not hard thats just copy and paste

[still vault]

Ideally you will want to make a bunch of combat flow simulations before internally testing the changes of the bins and sandbags

[cosmic storm]

Yeah, just adding some randomly wont change a thing

[chilly jacinth]

well it will change things

just probably not for the better

[arctic grove]

Cover is cover

[errant scarab]

😐

[still vault]

run RandomRedContainerPlacement(500);

Could be fun to test out if AI could randomly place cover pieces for each game/round.

[mossy badge]

they should have given us something like forge instead of portal

[burnt flume]

hello am kinda new to 2042... whats the best gun to start with?

[still vault]

forge?

[mossy badge]

battlefield 2042 ?

[still vault]

Assault rifle always works

[cosmic storm]

The guns you start with. (I'm not joking)

[burnt flume]

ok cool! thanks guys! maybe i just need to get more attachments unlocked to really vibe with them or somerthing

[cosmic storm]

Yeah, you will often want something that mitigate the vertical recoil at first

[burnt flume]

yeah ive been using the AK24 and just started getting recoil management attachments unlocked

[cosmic storm]

But depending on your play-style, you will eventually find something that work best for you

(If you like more close or mid-long range for exemple)

[burnt flume]

i feel like i tend to be more of a close to mid range payer

player*

[silk surge]

Sweeet

Something to watch tomorrow evening.

[cosmic storm]

i remember at lunch, when this weapon was really bad...

[pine roost]

dev update yeah!

you know me, earnestly awaiting any potential opportunity for an update

[west raft]

I'd imagine most weapons aren't a good thing at lunch

[vague horizon]

yoooo?

[pine roost]

they all needed an across the board reduction in spread

[silk surge]

Yeah, they added so much spread to the ARs for no reason. Luckily they fixed that pretty quickly.

While the SMGs were long-range beams.

[vague horizon]

the k30 was hella overpowered back then

[next onyx]

We pin. Yes.

@burnt flume Hey dude give the PBX a go. It's a great starting smg and it kills quick.

[lusty temple]

Guys I found a new levolution event that can be added into the game potentially

[cosmic storm]

@pine roost Btw, thanks for the jet tips, feels weird at first, but it help a lot to easily manoeuvre the vehicle.

[next onyx]

Oh yeah fish?

[lusty temple]

Its called false vacuum decay

[next onyx]

?

[fiery dawn]

I second the PBX recommendation

close combat ammo goes crazy

[lusty temple]

Basically its the ultimate ecological catastrophe where the entire reality just collapses in on itself

Just think of it as a moving unstoppable void of blackness that consumes everything in all directions

[fiery dawn]

The game already freezes and crashes. That not good enough for you?

[lusty temple]

The bubble in which the big bang has caused that is constantly expanding has the chance of its outer layer to be actually a false vacuum

What that means if this bubble that our universe is constantly expanding to gets pierced, all reality will shatter

[fiery dawn]

What are you talking about bro

we don’t need black holes in battlefield

[lusty temple]

Talking about quantum physics

It is actually possible for this to happen

[fiery dawn]

who cares lol

it doesn’t belong in battlefield

[lusty temple]

Well it could actually

Its 2042

[chilly jacinth]

anything is possible is a weak argument

[fiery dawn]

[lusty temple]

All we need to do is to disrupt the quantum fields in our world with something scientifically powerful enough to do so

[cosmic storm]

2042 is in 20 years, it's tomorrow basically

[lusty temple]

According to Moore's law our technology is constantly improving exponentially

[fiery dawn]

who

cares

it’s battlefield

[lusty temple]

ok and

[fiery dawn]

why do you want black holes

it’s a casual arcade combined arms shooter game

[lusty temple]

Its not even a black hole

[fiery dawn]

[cosmic storm]

Why do you want sci fi stuff ?

But like, in an extreme way that doesn't make sens

It's the same thing as a nuke in a cod game

[next onyx]

Probably a bit of fun.

[lusty temple]

Bro we literally have an operator that shoots health at others wdym by scfi stuff

[next onyx]

A syringe gun.

Yes.

I wouldn't even call that Sci fi.

[lusty temple]

We don't even have that

[next onyx]

It wouldn't make sense.

But in game it works as intended.

[cosmic storm]

Sci-fi doesn't apply to every technological things that don't work wet

[lusty temple]

Meaning that my idea could also potentially work

[cosmic storm]

or don't exist

[next onyx]

The most Sci fi you can get is mechs with small lasers or whatever.

Look at those stompers.

[cosmic storm]

It isn't about working, it's about battlefield

[copper fulcrum]

👉🏾👈🏾

[fiery dawn]

The tornados are already obnoxious enough

[next onyx]

Can't wait for the weather machines.

[fiery dawn]

I’ve played in many matches where my team is defending a breakthrough objective very well, and a tornado rips right through said objective and completely clears it for the attacking team and they just walk right in and take it

it’s fucking bullshit lmao

[lusty temple]

A map based on a college campus would be interesting

[cosmic storm]

If a want to tell a story about a new world war, I wont make a weird black hole thing and kill everyone for no reason

[lusty temple]

Its called false vacuum decay

Look it up

[cosmic storm]

Yeah, that isn't the point X)

[lusty temple]

If its possible in real life, its possible in game is what I'm saying

[cosmic storm]

Well, I want to be able to cook in the game then

[next onyx]

You can cook meat on dusk.

Actually.

It's weird.

[fiery dawn]

possible in game does not equal suitable for the game

Hey it gives you lots of health back.

25 is nothing to sneeze at.

wait what are we talking about

what gives you health back? xD

[cosmic storm]

You can cook meat in dusk the game and get 25 health. @fiery dawn

[calm bison]

Poggers new Development update tomorrow

[tame cobalt]

[calm bison]

The real nail biter will come during S4

[fiery dawn]

ohh I don’t think I’ve even heard of that game

[calm bison]

Where we will see if DICE drops us or keeps it running

[next onyx]

Play it.

[tame cobalt]

Maybe season 3 will introduce cube shaped containers

[next onyx]

It's good rebel.

[fiery dawn]

I’ll look it up

[calm bison]

Those do exist AFAIK

[tame cobalt]

Damnn

[tardy tree]

i hope they choose to go big for s3

[tame cobalt]

They really put a lot of effort into the container gameplay that bf is known for

[tardy tree]

if they dont im gonna cry

[fiery dawn]

Ohhh it’s like an old-fashioned shooter like OG doom or something huh? Looks neat

[calm bison]

They’ll probably introduce one new map though they might go big on Weapon and Vehicle content

[pine roost]

the one by new blood?

[tame cobalt]

They are going big, by slowly but steadily continuing to make the game better

[calm bison]

Personally I want an MG3 in AOW

UuH bUt iT woUlD bE oUtDatEd

My guy we’re still using M16s in AOW

This shit is fine

MG42 little brother go brrrr

[tardy tree]

i hope they give the new map some sort of destruction event instead of some shittily put together ship map filled with containers

[next onyx]

Yes.

[tame cobalt]

the hell is the cube thing tho?

[tardy tree]

i saw under the twitter post the poster for cube lmao

idk what it means but its funny

[tame cobalt]

Temporyal is taking some inspiration from the snitch

[fiery dawn]

@next onyx Have you heard of Gloomwood?

[low timber]

All praise the cube!

[calm bison]

Personally I would like a snow map that’s comparable to Provence

Have a mix between Provence and Narvik

That’s a map I would play

[fiery dawn]

oh look at that Gloomwood is actually by the same devs that made Dusk

[tame cobalt]

It's a dataminer who knows something about season 3, he's teasing us and being cryptic

[calm bison]

I miss BFV beta days

It was so fun

oohhhhh

that makes it even funnier

[tame cobalt]

Do u know something about cube movie? Any theories as to what he could be saying

Maybe something about the map

[calm bison]

You mean the movie Pyrocynical went over?

[tardy tree]

what they need to do is take the atmosphere from bf1, the destruction from bf hardline, and the graphics and weather from 2043 and throw it all together

[tame cobalt]

idk

[tardy tree]

the movie

isnt it about a bunch of people in a huge cube with square rooms

[calm bison]

Hardline had shit destruction

[tardy tree]

and they have to find the exit

[tardy tree]

i thought it was fine?

[calm bison]

BFV had the best destruction

[pine roost]

oh yeah some of my work colleagues mentioned that film

[next onyx]

Yeah.

[tardy tree]

the levolution was pretty solid

[tame cobalt]

so maybe it's a maze-like map? like locker

[calm bison]

That was about it for Hardline

As much as I like Hardline

[tardy tree]

ehhh i hope not

[calm bison]

Levolution is really its only strong point in destruction

Everything else is soft walls

BFV proving its a good battlefield game again

[tardy tree]

bfv is good

[pine roost]

bfv destruction is pog

[calm bison]

You’re preaching to the choir here

[tardy tree]

ive had plenty of fun with it

[calm bison]

Tanks were the best in the series in that game

Fight me

[tardy tree]

i like 2042 tanks honestly

i like the hud and how they feel

[pine roost]

I prefer the faster turret rotation

[calm bison]

There’s something weird about 2042 tanks

[tardy tree]

they feel quick

i like it

[calm bison]

I don’t know how to describe it but they feel less responsive

[tame cobalt]

Maybe there is some cube that we will find on the maps to tease season 3?

[quiet shell]

Anyone got predictions for tomorrows dev-blog?

[calm bison]

BFV tanks felt responsive and a bit more realistic

I liked that the turrets had a fixed rotation

[tardy tree]

maybe the map has traps on it

[tame cobalt]

I predict they will announce vault vehicles

[tardy tree]

wasnt that a thing in cube

[calm bison]

It meant you had to be skilled to use them

[pine roost]

idk why 2042 tanks have such little turret elevation and depression

[tardy tree]

yeah

[pine roost]

it feels so darn restrictive

[tame cobalt]

Doubt that tbh

[tardy tree]

yeah same

but like cube

[calm bison]

I’m on Series S and these tanks in 2042 feel like shit

They handle like garbage

They don’t turn

[pine roost]

well I personally prefer the tanks where you could actually react quickly with aim

[calm bison]

Especially at high speeds

[calm bison]

That made dealing with them really frustrating

[pine roost]

while I totally understand how the turret rotation emphasises positioning over aim, it does lead to more instances where tanks just hang back

[calm bison]

Of course if it’s your preference more power to you

The tanks hanging back was largely to blame for vehicle attrition in BFV

[pine roost]

i prefer the pace that 4 has, even 1 even though that was more restricting

[calm bison]

Eventually tanks would run out of ammo in BFV and you’d have to go back and resupply

[tardy tree]

maybe its they way they look more than the way they feel

they just look so cool

[calm bison]

In theory this mechanic should work

It prevents tankers from overextending and going on strong blitzes

[pine roost]

I love the visuals of tanks in 2042, but it's the sheer volume of counters and the lack of any way to deal with them alongside the turrets that turn even slower that drives me away from wanting to play them

[calm bison]

But in practice it leads to a population of tankers too afraid to detach from their ammo supply

[calm bison]

Yes this

Oh my god this

[pine roost]

I'm of the opinion that if tanks can aim quickly, they are able to actually push aggressively with teammates and confidently thin the frontline. You just can't really do that with the new tanks

[calm bison]

I went expecting DICE to have basically copied BFV tanks but with a little more

I was very wrong

These vehicles handle like shit

So does the PANHARD

[pine roost]

you've got no angular damage multiplier, portable TV rocket launchers who's user can see you through walls, and deals the same damage as a side on m5 shot

[calm bison]

It’s amazing people can use these things on controller

[pine roost]

wingsuiters with c5

[calm bison]

Arguably with the lessons of BF1 and BFV, 2042 tanks should be more complex, have more angles to ricochet, and so on

[pine roost]

while ricohets are annoying, having no means of angling your vehicle to reduce damage is a pain

just do what the other games did and have a fairly high minimum damage you can deal from a shallow angle shot on armour

[calm bison]

Here’s the thing

We’re not the only franchise to use health bars in our tanks

Case and point

[pine roost]

it now just boils down to showing your front armour, but if even a slither of your side armour is showing they still gain the side armour damage multiplier

[calm bison]

World of Tanks

I’m not saying BF2042 should become WoT

But the ricochet mechanic could be of use from it

[solid imp]

It does not do the same damage as an M5

[calm bison]

In WoT if a shot doesn’t pen it does no damage

[pine roost]

oh and please add damage counters again, my word having to do testing by myself because I STILL dont know what damage I am dealing

[wide shore]

There is nothing you can do to make Lis’ rocket do as much damage as an M5. It simply just doesn’t.

It’s easier to miss. Can’t be instantly replenished with an ammo box or resupply crate. Is very rigid to turn. And can easily be out maneuvered by any competent pilot.

[pine roost]

it does, I tested it

[solid imp]

Against what

[pine roost]

27 damage from any angle, whereas an m5 only did that to the side armour plate. Less on the front and more on the back

[pine roost]

In a custom portal match against an m5a1

[tardy tree]

escalation

would make sense for a large city only map with rooftops

lots of rooftops

cause like

escalate

[wide shore]

You also cannot move while firing. And you cannot shoot it forever. I have Lis T1. Unless a vehicle is already on the brink of death, you’re not destroying it. And even then it’s no guarantee. As it’s difficult to control and has a habit of going straight through vehicles or unreasonably small crevices.

The M5 Recoilless is a better launcher hands down in every single way

[pine roost]

unless there is a difference in damage received between a tank that doesn't belong to the enemy as an empty one

[calm bison]

Add the SMAW

[pine roost]

I wish they'd give it the option to run without the scope though

but yes I agree it's better

I still dislike the concept of wallhacks + a controllable rocket

[wide shore]

I feel Lis is going to be the least used specialist once the classes come

No reason to use her launcher over the M5

Even with the spotting ability.

She’s more useful as a vehicle spotter than a vehicle destroyer.

[solid imp]

And yet her spotting is only useful to her

[wide shore]

That’s true as well

I only bothered to t1 her because I could run an ammo box and have a launcher.

[solid imp]

an ammo box that doesn't help her launcher

[wide shore]

It helps the team tho

[solid imp]

I know just illustrating for others why she's not as OP as they think

🙂

[wide shore]

100%

All intents and proposes she’s like a C tier specialist

[solid imp]

Agree- when her rocket is empty she brings literally nothing to the game

[next onyx]

Lis is fucking obnoxious jesus christ.

I'm sorry but getting battered by her rockets is not fun.

[chilly jacinth]

if theres more than one of her

youre as good as dead

in any ground vehicle

[pine roost]

it's just like boris, as a concept it's just so irritating that they have to them make them practically useless

[patent path]

owo new bf2042 dev update tomorrow

[next onyx]

owo

[chilly jacinth]

[quiet shell]

I wish the next Battlefield friends episode would come out sooner

I wonder if they'll make Medic Irish after the class rework

[ivory canopy]

I can't for the life of me run the TGM worth a damn. Such a pain to use against the only vehicles it can reasonably 1HK

I did rip a jet with it once. What a feeling.

[low timber]

M44 at 804 kills

[solid imp]

Results
M5: Front 21 (turret/body hit 27), Side 27, Rear 34
G84: Front 27 (turret/body hit 27), Side 26, Rear 26

[low timber]

When I tested G-84 it was 27 on all sides on MBTs, Wildcat and Ram.

[solid imp]

oof you're right my math was off... 73-46 is 27 not 26 lol

but even so, if you're using an M5 just aim at the spot where the turret connects to the body and you will literally always do same/greater damage than the G84

[frail pasture]

You guys think there will be another vault weapon that needs S-FAR kills?

[solid imp]

and you're rewarded with rear armor hits with the M5

[low timber]

Well the G-84 is steerable so it’s most likely to reduce those critical hits

[solid imp]

agreed but you can 3 hit a tank with the M5 if you do it right

[low timber]

Can’t wait for the Javelin though

[solid imp]

you can never 3 hit a tank with only G84

and you can have 4 M5 rockets at once

[pine roost]

Face to face with a tank the m5 is better

[low timber]

Actually, dunno how I feel that recon will always have the spawn beacon equipped, gonna be hide and seek afterwards. Soflam would’ve been better if it wasn’t a spotting scope as well.

[pine roost]

Again it’s the fact that it can turn around solid cover at a distance and get you which I dislike

[lilac dust]

Can we fast forward 24 hours from now pls

[solid imp]

Which is fun until that's literally the only thing your specialist is good at, and while you're waiting the 3 month cooldown period to your next rocket you may as well be an AI soldier

[low timber]

Use the bed to save the game and fast forward

[frail pasture]

always works

[low timber]

How the heck did autocorrect fail that much

[pine roost]

Skill issue obviously

[lilac dust]

https://twitter.com/temporyal/status/1590386312648892416 Any reason why temporyal replied to battlefield's tweet with a pic of a cube? lol

[quiet shell]

I've noticed the top of the turret takes the most damage at around 30 damage or so from my testing

[lilac dust]

Thank you for correcting cos you had me confused as hell

[pine roost]

Yeah I noticed that too, it’s a bit strange

[solid imp]

I thought I'd anecdotally seen that but I couldn't repro.. but rear hits do 34 so are still the 3-hit-kill way to go with the M5

and a top down hit with the 84 doesn't have any extra damage

[pine roost]

It wasn’t all that consistent though

[quiet shell]

The top of a tank tends to be the weakest due to the top hatch

[fading wharf]

that spawn beacon looks kinda weird but it does its job

[quiet shell]

using the javelin on portal against 2042 yields some insane results. Something like 40 damage I think

[pine roost]

Squad has a nice diagram of how strong parts of a tank are, wish I could post screenshots of it

[tacit sphinx]

before time began, there was the cube

[solid imp]

Jav can and should do massive top down damage

[low timber]

Could the turret have sides as well?

[tacit sphinx]

we know not where it came from, only that it has the power to create maps and fill them with containers

[slate meadow]

Am I the only one who thinks the graphics of MW2 look really bad ?

[low timber]

In BF4 it could do 45 damage per hit on laser designated tanks.

[slate meadow]

Almost like they are no better then 5 years ago

[pine roost]

Well at least you’ve got thermal smoke as well as cover to block a javelin

[quiet shell]

Nope, the graphics are indeed downgraded. graphical focus is put on the lighting and character models/weapon models

[slate meadow]

I wouldn't even say the character models look great

But the environment graphics just look so terrible

[solid imp]

I'm no cod fanboy but this legit looks cool tho..

[quiet shell]

Yeah some impressive physics

[quiet shell]

We are officially back to graphics don't matter Call of Duty and buggy Battlefield

[lilac dust]

Queue epic 2007 music credits

[fiery dawn]

New cod has lots of downsides but the physics and attention to detail in a lot of areas is really impressive

And I personally am enjoying it a decent amount because I am a filthy casual

but mostly because some of my IRL friends wanted me to play it with them since I haven’t had any games to play with them in a long time and it’s been fun

[quiet shell]

I try to get into it for like 2 hours a day but then I play too well so they game chucks me into sweat lobbies

[fiery dawn]

I feel like that has happened to me a few times but I haven’t really felt too abused by the SBMM yet

[toxic wigeon]

Because sbmm is too difficult for a large scale game like bf lol

[fiery dawn]

Probably because I’ve been grinding camo challenges so my KD probably isn’t amazing cause getting mounted kills and crouched kills is annoying af lol

I’ve got gold camo on all the assault rifles and 2/4 of the launchers so far though lol

[chilly jacinth]

cod has sbmm in warzone

dont see how it would be any more difficult in battlefield

[fiery dawn]

stop

SBMM is fucking stupid for casual game modes

[chilly jacinth]

yes

[fiery dawn]

let the devs believe it’s too big a challenge in bf’s case

[copper fulcrum]

SBMM is fine but I don't see it working in a mode that has a focus on combined arms combat

and respawning

[surreal portal]

If they bring SBMM battlefield will be terrible

[copper fulcrum]

It depends on the parameters they use for it

[surreal portal]

I guess so

[copper fulcrum]

aka, how strong it is and what they use to enforce it

BF1 had a 'skill' stat that used a combination of stats to make up that stat

That stat is used for the mid-game team balancer and the match maker... for the one person that ever used matchmaking for BF1

[lusty temple]

Shipment in battlefield 💀💀💀

[toxic wigeon]

Rip got muted

Lol tdm in bf

Honestly

Always felt off to me

Close quarter modes in bf

Same with ground war in cod

Both feel off

[eager spire]

Domination is fine.

[toxic wigeon]

Domination is different imo

Ground war tho

Is bad

Basically everything people complained about in 2042

[elder patrol]

Why were the other bf titles down?

[toxic wigeon]

Maintenance

[elder patrol]

For what

[delicate hollow]

Maps in ground war feel so weird

They're all straight lines imo

[elder patrol]

Ground war? In battlefield

[delicate hollow]

MW2
