battlefield-2042

[silk surge]

Nothing to change here.

[solar obsidian]

even a football game in the late ps2 generation had cross play with pc

think it was pes 6 or 4

no sure

of course final fantasy 11 and 14 mmo been able to do that since 360 days

[arctic grove]

DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN

[tough wolf]

they changed 32p flashback breakthrough to 64p breakthrough

[spare quest]

ok

[sharp marten]

[arctic grove]

Finally the devs did something right

i hated 32p BT

[eager spire]

I said input based matchmaking should be mandatory for crossplay and KBM support should be standard on all consoles.

I think that is the best solution to aim assist issues.

[arctic grove]

The way I read this it seemed like a demand

[eager spire]

i mean it kind of is a demand.

not at anyone in this server. but just in general.

[limpid pond]

Ehhh then you run into the issue of the people that want to play on roller are forced to play mnk

I played mnk for 3 years so I'm fine but then you have those older guys and younger kids that only wanna use a co troller

[eager spire]

I don't see how this is a problem. If aim assist is going to continue to be strong, then sectioning off the lobbies so people on KBM don't have to bother with it is justified.

[limpid pond]

OH my bad I thought you meant mnk should be the only thing on console too. My misunderstanding

Input based matchmaking is a great idea except for specs but other than that it's fine

[eager spire]

I guess the caveat could be made that this doesn't apply to parties in co-op games. But in terms of any competitive multiplayer, I think the suggestion is the best solution.

[fiery shoal]

i feel like its only necessary for ranked

[eager spire]

Nah i feel like it's necessary for any kind of PVP gameplay.

[limpid pond]

Yeah. I agree. Controller vs controller and mnk vs mnk

[fiery shoal]

eh, it doesnt really matter advantages in casual game modes

thats as an mnk player thats usually on the short end of the stick when it comes to AA too

[limpid pond]

For bf it does since there isn't much of a competitive scene

Halo already has this

[eager spire]

SBMM and EOMM would like to have a talk about that

[limpid pond]

Cod is whatever it's controller league only

[fiery shoal]

i dont see what SBMM or EOMM have to do with that

[limpid pond]

To be fair the only reason aim assist is even a topic of discussion is because of warzone and cod

[eager spire]

which is funny to me cause even pro players agree that they've dumbed down controller gameplay to a massive extent.

[limpid pond]

Yeah I know. I played it. Cod has aiming for you now with aim assist it's stupid

[eager spire]

You say that it doesn't really matter in casual game modes, but considering casual game modes can often behave like ranked modes due to SBMM/EOMM, i say it does matter.

[fiery shoal]

to be fair thats only natural because of the popularity of the titles and one of the first major titles to tackle crossplay between pc and console

[fiery shoal]

but they arent ranked modes.. thats the difference

sbmm or not

[eager spire]

but they act the same.

what's the difference between a casual mode with SBMM and ranked?

[limpid pond]

Yeah but my point to be fair also was not many other games have this issue. Apex and Cod are the ones that have the issue

[fiery shoal]

you can keep saying that all you want, they arent ranked modes though

[eager spire]

What's the difference, really? The only one i know of is that the rank is visible in Ranked.

[limpid pond]

You can't play with aim assist on controller for rainbow 6 so that's out the picture

[fiery shoal]

this isnt some philosophical thought process, its not ranked

[limpid pond]

Good players in bf can't even use aim assist because of sensitivity cap

[eager spire]

Then why does it act like it.

[fiery shoal]

halo

[eager spire]

Halo Infinite has this problem as well.

[fiery shoal]

because devs want their game to be the way it is?

why did van gough use the colors he did?

fuck if i know

[eager spire]

They want everything to be a ranked mode, then anything that would be reasonable to do in a ranked mode should be done in a casual mode with SBMM.

[fiery shoal]

i mean.. theres a reason they are named different and ignoring that fact just seems weird to me

[eager spire]

because they are for all intents and purposes the same thing.

[fiery shoal]

otherwise why have different modes at all? only have ranked mode by your logic

[limpid pond]

Yeah but halo is also and has always been meant for controller to be honest. Yes it's on pc I know. But their target audience is xbox

[eager spire]

Why have two separate modes that work the same way?

[limpid pond]

Not to mention this halo is kinda bad

[fiery shoal]

because one is ranked and the other isnt

again.. not some philosophical conundrum here

[eager spire]

But they both work the same way.

[fiery shoal]

but they dont

[eager spire]

There's no difference beyond the name and weither or not the rank is visible.

[limpid pond]

To be fair if they disabled crossplay it would be so much easier

Just don't release with crossplay

[fiery shoal]

and how people would play in a casual mode vs a ranked mode

[limpid pond]

Problem solved

[eager spire]

It's not a philosophical conundrum, you're just not seeing the point.

[limpid pond]

Point is remove crossplay everyone's happy

[fiery shoal]

your point is "they are almost the same" which is a weak point

[eager spire]

Would you say that a ranked mode works on a Skill Based Matchmaking system?

[limpid pond]

If crossplay was removed 100% I become a youtuber on bf

[fiery shoal]

for a proper ranked mode you need sbmm

[limpid pond]

True

[eager spire]

Okay. So you can agree that a ranked mode does indeed need SBMM.

Why would a casual mode need that?

[fiery shoal]

never made that statement

[limpid pond]

To aid new player experience

[fiery shoal]

topic hasnt been if casual needs sbmm either

[limpid pond]

I agree with both of you I'm just playing both sides

[eager spire]

I am getting to it, answer the question, if a proper ranked mode needs SBMM, then why have the system in a casual mode?

[ripe hedge]

Oh we talking SBMM?

[limpid pond]

Casual is good with sbmm and without heavy sbmm. In cod sbmm has always been around just very very low. You could have people a whole 2.0 kd below you since bo2

Oh hey alex

[ripe hedge]

Suuup

[fiery shoal]

why have sbmm in a casual mode? to create balanced matches

[limpid pond]

You guys working today?

[fiery shoal]

pretty sure sweden doesnt acknowledge veterans day today if thats what your asking

[limpid pond]

Nah we don't

I mean ikea doesn't

[lilac dust]

SBMM in MW2 is why a ton of people went back to 2042 lul

[limpid pond]

We don't have any sales today but we're packed

[fiery shoal]

define a ton... and unlikely

[limpid pond]

I went back because nw2 is dogshit imo

[fiery shoal]

anyone who leaves because sbmm doesnt know what they are talking about

that basically reads like "people leave mw2 because of fair matches"

which is.. such a ridiculous statement

[limpid pond]

visually stunning but the way how the game feels ans plays is genuinely bad.

[lilac dust]

No it's broken in MW2. If you do good, you almost immediately get matched up against tournament players playing for 100K

[fiery shoal]

i call bs

but of course no way to prove or disprove this so whatever

[limpid pond]

It's slow paced and feels very clunky when trying to maneuver you almost feel the weight of your character. Maps are good at least most

[eager spire]

okay, so do you agree that a ranked mode needs SBMM to work.

[fiery shoal]

why are we reiterating that for the 3rd time?

[lilac dust]

MW2 (2022) is the only video game I have ever heard about where people are reverse boosting to get into easier lobbies

[limpid pond]

It's an expression. Basically if you suck you get matched up against people that are trying to get better so they sweat and use the most busted shit

[eager spire]

Because you didn't answer me the second time.

[fiery shoal]

i answered both..

[eager spire]

So answer the question.

you only claimed that you didn't make that statement.

[limpid pond]

Cod quite literally isn't meant for everyone. Alot of people want a oldhead experience where everyone plays with just their thumbs and pointers and walk around shoot someone die then repeat

[fiery shoal]

is this statement WITHOUT a question mark supposed to be a question?

[eager spire]

I was asking you if you do indeed agree with that

[limpid pond]

I'm confused now

[eager spire]

which according to this statement which you made immediately before, you would.

[fiery shoal]

usually when you ask something you put a question mark...

[eager spire]

But you denied ever making this statement. And i'm not that good with photoshop.

[fiery shoal]

english is hard

[limpid pond]

Imagine being foreign tryna figure out how to say yacht

[eager spire]

Please learn how to read context mate. You could've just answered yes or no.

[limpid pond]

Or nemounia

Pneumonia

I forgot the p

[fiery shoal]

yea my fault for taking your words and sentence structure exactly as they are and not your own fault for asking a question but phrasing it as a statement...

then get mad later that i didnt answer a question that wasnt structured as one

[limpid pond]

Yes

[eager spire]

You answered it by entirely denying that you made the claim in the first place, despite the fact that i can read it with my own eyes.

[fiery shoal]

all you gotta say is "yea i meant that as a question" instead of trying to be petty and somehow blame me for your lack of being coherent

[eager spire]

I was trying to make a point, but now i'm having to waste my time explaining this to you.

[limpid pond]

To heres a picture of my cat

[eager spire]

I don't even care anymore.

[fiery shoal]

im sorry you had to explain your words because the way you originally put them wasnt what you meant

[limpid pond]

It'll send in a second

I think

Oh there we go

@next onyx I know this is dumb but check out my cat

[lilac dust]

So I can tell that PP-29 is probably a monster on PC but wow. Any controller players in chat right now? Does it feel super hard to control for you guessing it's due to the nerf from ages ago

[fiery shoal]

i even use the pp29 with HREC reduction since its easy to just pull down to compensate for VREC

(PC)

[lilac dust]

It's easily the hardest gun to control for me atm and I've got all assault rifles and LMG's and a few smgs tier 1. Maybe I'll get used to it

[fiery shoal]

i wonder if you just up your sensitivity if it will help

like, if your sens is at 6 but at 7 it will compensate enough to counter VREC

[limpid pond]

I'm on controller. I don't touch the pp29 because it just feels to easy. At a distance it's harder to controll but it's low risk high reward

I prefer the pbx to it

[ripe hedge]

Awww yess gun talk

[limpid pond]

Sensitivity on console goes up to 100

[lilac dust]

I think the maps I'm on atm are forcing me to engage too long distance

Arica harbour is rough in the first sector

[fiery shoal]

idk if i would classify the pp29 as low risk high reward, it does have the highest VREC for full auto weapons

[limpid pond]

Hey did you guys possibly think about adding the brugger and thomet apc? If you're able to and run it through the office

[limpid pond]

Yeah pp29 isn't very good on roller for distance

[eager spire]

vrec is relatively easy to control if you know what you're doing though, i donno if i'd consider that more high risk than running something like the 44 magnum.

[lilac dust]

I had to figure this one out on my own lol but I'm guessing VREC is Vertical recoil ?

[fiery shoal]

yes

[limpid pond]

Vrec is hard at least for me with virtually no aim assist and no aim assist beyond 30 feet

[fiery shoal]

basically the ONLY aspect of the pp29 thats hard

[limpid pond]

Close range I can shred with the gun

[fiery shoal]

and the pp29 does have the highest VREC values for primary full auto weapons

[lilac dust]

yeah it's a pretty damn solid gun in smg range. I need to stop treating it like a sniper lul

[limpid pond]

Pbx I can do all distances same with the mp9 k30 and p90

[fiery shoal]

great thing about strong VREC and light HREC is you can extend its range pretty easily

[limpid pond]

Aks I just don't use either

I also haven't used the pp29 in like 6 months

Imma use it again tonight and tell my verdict

[ripe hedge]

https://tenor.com/view/peter-griffin-perhaps-family-guy-thinking-gif-13587558

[low timber]

~307 more kills to T1 the M44

[lilac dust]

Yeah Flashback breakthrough is not the play for tier 1ng pp-29 lol

[limpid pond]

The gif is just a black screen

[arctic grove]

It’s Alex’s infamous Peter griffin perhaps gif

[low timber]

It means confirmed

[limpid pond]

Don't worry I'm not requesting. Was just curious. Also what's the process for you guys coming up with ideas for smgs?

[lilac dust]

Alex is secretly Seth MacFarlane

[limpid pond]

I thought Alex was secretly Ryan Reynolds

[limpid pond]

I wish

Also I got the gif now.

[dapper river]

The population spike the trial periods and game pass are going to bring make me wish we had all chat, the salt farming is going to be legendary

[limpid pond]

Hmmm a perhaps will keep me on my toes. I do hope it happens. But them again I won't be mad if it doesn't. I feel like the apc is a pretty modern gun that they could and slightly transfer to a bit of a higher future tech gun

[solar obsidian]

is it possible to mass join a single match?

[limpid pond]

What do you mean? Like multiple people queuing to join because the servers are full or like multiple people joining a game at once

[solar obsidian]

like multiple players joining the game at once

get like 10+ mates on the same team

[lunar finch]

If they all joined on you probably

[solar obsidian]

hmm

[limpid pond]

Should be able to. I know clans tend to do that

[fiery shoal]

on pc you can joined through origin

probably the best way to get a lot of people into a match asap

[arctic grove]

@still vault S3 SWEDISH INFANTRY MAP LEAKED

[limpid pond]

Lmao I go to work and it's just some dude slide hopping through the exit to kill someone

That ikea is smaller than the on e I work at though

[spare quest]

fake, i don't see any containers

[arctic grove]

Dont worry fam. they are busy copy/pasting them as we speak.

[limpid pond]

Nah no need for containers whwn you can throw cars and couches/dressers everywhere for cover

[eager spire]

holy fuck it's interchange from tarkov

[limpid pond]

Nah it's ikea

Aka eck eyah

[arctic grove]

Im hyped for S3

[limpid pond]

If you say eye Kia you're dumb

Jk jk that doesn't make you dumb

[limpid pond]

We all are. S3 will for sure be great

[lilac dust]

Wooooh baby just killed 9 people in one mag with the PP-29 on D1 orbital

[arctic grove]

gotta love that pp

[still vault]

lies

make it a giant meatball

[limpid pond]

Yeah especially in the tunnel if you run up behind everyone

[buoyant trail]

I'll take a infantry only inside ikea map

[limpid pond]

Yeah it could be sick tbh

But the whole store has to fall and kill everyone after 10 minutes

[lilac dust]

New weather event - Raining swedish meatballs?

[hexed mango]

you’d get lost immediately

[limpid pond]

I got a map so we're good

[buoyant trail]

We're actually decently busy today

[lilac dust]

[spare quest]

[lilac dust]

I just realized they probably did manifest and breakaway first instead of discarded because they wouldn't want to rework stranded in india right after releasing stranded

[silk surge]

New Season 3 factions leaked: DICE Devs and angry subreddit nerds. No wonder that the new map is in Sweden.

[hexed mango]

dice devs get the railgun tank

[heavy sandal]

is it still possible to get liquidator stuff?

[hexed mango]

no

unless you liquidate deez

[heavy sandal]

will it be in the future or just a one time thing?

[lilac dust]

Nope, but it might become available in the future. Super unlikely tho since this isn't the kind of game to last long enough for that to happen

[heavy sandal]

i see , thanks

[hexed mango]

they said the same thing about the super hind skin
hasnt come back yet

[heavy sandal]

was it difficult to get the skins?

[hexed mango]

some weeklies came back, but not that one

[hexed mango]

no it got removed from the game within 24 hours

[lilac dust]

Very easy if you worked as a team

[hexed mango]

<3

[heavy sandal]

like it needed 60 ribbons during the event or a single game?

[hexed mango]

event

[lilac dust]

and the liquidators earnable skins were available for 2 weeks

[heavy sandal]

aah nice then

[hexed mango]

i doubt they would add back the event skins, probably only the shop ones, and probably not even those

[edgy oriole]

im sure theyll add more white skins with a touch of red on them in the future

[arctic grove]

For a second I thought we’d be getting the actual US and RU

[tribal thicket]

any idea when s3 will come?

[lilac dust]

22nd

[little cedar]

I stg Stranded is the only Rush map

[hexed mango]

what logan said

[little cedar]

I want to ban it so bad. All I ever play

[arctic grove]

Want some Stranded on top of your Stranded?

[hexed mango]

so just dont play it

[little cedar]

How can I avoid a map when I can't ban it?

[lilac dust]

LMAO I just realized toe is echology

Sneaky

[hexed mango]

yes

i got bored of crawdaddy pfp

board

[arctic grove]

Spelling infraction

-100 boins

[lilac dust]

and I require weather events in my life

[hexed mango]

ong

[arctic grove]

Me when loading in

[hexed mango]

[hexed mango]

understandable

the breakaway images in the video looked like there was "falling" snow, i wonder if theyre gonna add a blizzard

[tribal thicket]

okay, thanks

[hexed mango]

or a snowstorm of some sort

[arctic grove]

Give us AI skins and more weather events dice

In y2

[hexed mango]

but breakaway is looking 🔥

well

🥶 technically

[arctic grove]

Breakaway is possibly the biggest glowup

[lilac dust]

Is it weird that the gillete song is now playing in my head

[arctic grove]

I have a lot of hope for Hourglass

[hexed mango]

fr it looks actually fun

manifest is a pretty standard rework, not much needed to change in that map anyways but im glad its getting love

[arctic grove]

I remember before launch the images of Hourglass, looked like it was gonna be so dope

[hexed mango]

but yeah now discarded and hourglass are on the table to be some interesting reworks in s4

[arctic grove]

I’m definitely sure they’ll do those maps right

[tribal thicket]

isnt Breakaway in-game?

[hexed mango]

yeah

but its shit rn
the rework is what we're talking about

[arctic grove]

Aren’t discarded, breakaway and hourglass the games physically largest maps? Or are they all relatively equally sized

[lilac dust]

Breakwaay is the largest map considerably

Hourglass is slightly smaller

and then discarded

[hexed mango]

yeah

[arctic grove]

I think so too since on E1 if you look over to A sector on breakaway it’s like

[hexed mango]

breakaway is 100% the largest

[arctic grove]

A 2 mile distance

Yeah if they can do the games largest map justice I have a good feeling that hourglass could maaaybe become more urban

[lilac dust]

Breakaway is so big that some matches see the damavand peak area vacant for the whole match

[arctic grove]

please keep e1 in the game as an objective pleapslelapsleoslw

[warped pulsar]

Is the EA launcher causing the games to crash?

[lilac dust]

Would be cool if they moved that area closer tho

[arctic grove]

Yea they should move E1 for sure

[hexed mango]

yeah i like that point but its so fucking far

i love the move of the oil rig, and the cave system

[arctic grove]

It makes a lot more sense now that they increased the games support life

[hexed mango]

lemme see if i can find the image i sent

[arctic grove]

Cause breakaways rework is massive to just be part of one of the last updates

[lilac dust]

surely they would've mentioned removing such a substantial area like E1. That's the first shot of the reveal trailer

[arctic grove]

I wanna hope we can get a Y2 without the baggage of fixing the game the entirety of Y1 so we can get some more content

[arctic grove]

That’s why I hope it stays, as an objective it sucks but, it was in the trailer man

[hexed mango]

fun stuff

also, cave

[arctic grove]

cæv

[hexed mango]

ong

[lilac dust]

🦶

[hexed mango]

hawt

[arctic grove]

Pleasantly surprised with the post y1 support tho man

[hexed mango]

fr

[arctic grove]

Time to begin begging dice for an entire y2

[hexed mango]

i doubt they will but post s4 content is fire

[lilac dust]

I really do wonder if year 2 is truly a result of asking for it or the more likely reason : Store purchases

[arctic grove]

no they will

because we will make them

[lunar finch]

Breakaway rework got me feelin all warm inside 🥴

[arctic grove]

All I ask is the game become good enough to warrant it and id purchase skins

I think the game as it is is good now but I’m just cautious of them cause the content and stuff

[warped pulsar]

This whole year was spent undoing their mess, so maybe year 2 we will finally get more maps? Let's hope

[lilac dust]

Honestly I'm down to purchase some stuff in the store if we get a proper year 2. Game is only going up from here

[arctic grove]

Yeah if they do a year 2 pass I’d be interested to see like, 1 aow map, maybe 1 portal map

[arctic grove]

Same

[lilac dust]

They started getting more efficient with reworks being released. Remember when Kailedoscope was the only rework we got in the whole season? Maybe after season 4 they'll be able to crank out multiple new maps

[sharp marten]

That’s a pretty smart way of looking at it

I’m just glad we’re getting Y2

[lunar finch]

Fr

What if we had 3 years😏

Or am i pushing it now

[warped pulsar]

I heard MW2 is gonna charge people another $70 bucks for an expansion next year as their 2nd year

[lilac dust]

It's rumoured to be more than enough to justify paying full game price, but still kinda sus

[arctic grove]

I heard about that too, I think that content would be by sledgehammer too

[chilly dove]

isn't that their tarkov competitor thing?

[lilac dust]

also includes a new campaign so it shouldn't be too much of a cash grab other than not needing to produce an entirely new game

[warped pulsar]

What if the story and new content kinda sucks?

[arctic grove]

Then I have 70 dollars that you used to have

[lilac dust]

but I can only imagine that new campaign is cut content from the current game cos how the hell are they making one on the scale of this year's game for an expansion lol

[quiet shell]

AW FUCK WHERE'S THE EXIT

[lilac dust]

This randomly reminded me of when a lot of us thought 2042 was getting a campaign added to it ... then battlefield twitter confirmed that's a nope ...😭

[arctic grove]

You dont leave the place. You cant quit the map until its over.

That is the point of the swedish map.

Unless the game crashes.

[chilly dove]

they already consolidated their development. you'd be hard pressed to tell me that mw2019 and black ops cold war are not just 2 games on the same engine

[arctic grove]

Scp 3008 be like

[quiet shell]

Unsure what you mean but cold war was made on the old cod engine

[lilac dust]

Well if that were true then why does MW2 have an awful dull haze over it's graphics

[arctic grove]

Yeah I don’t think Cold War was on the same engine as MW19, but I couldn’t be sure

[chilly dove]

I never even mentioned MW2 lol

[hexed mango]

it does? i have yet to notice

[lilac dust]

FUCK. I'm sleep deprived. Carry on

[lilac dust]

Well to keep it simple. In 2042 you can see things clearly and brightly. In MW2 it's all dull looking with less visibility

[hexed mango]

it looks way better than 2042 for me

[unkempt ferry]

Maybe there’s a film noise setting? BF1 and CoD Infinite Warfare had that

[craggy marten]

Hello Chat

[tiny imp]

MW2 looks more better

[lilac dust]

Game has incredible detail in it's mechanics, but graphically I'd rather play a treyarch game. Way better colours and visbility IMO

[chilly dove]

sup

[craggy marten]

How's that 2042 grind coming along?

[edgy oriole]

POV: going 1-23

[lilac dust]

It has colour, yes, but overall it's far less pronounced than a treyarch game

[hexed mango]

i still think it looks 10x better than 2042

[warped pulsar]

the foliage kinda lacks in MW2

[edgy oriole]

i think 2042 looks better tbh

ngl

[inner roost]

It's a good looking game but 2042 environment and lighting triumphs

[warped pulsar]

Have a look at stranded

[edgy oriole]

mw22 sound is leagues better though

[hexed mango]

mw2 performs 20x better for how it looks

[chilly dove]

@craggy marten S053, spacebar not held, pwning people, vehicles not required

[tiny imp]

At least MW2 has campaign

[warped pulsar]

COD is usually smaller game, and the environment doesn't react

[lilac dust]

Get me some pics of farm 18. That comes to mind when I think of dull looking visuals

[edgy oriole]

im never touching mw22 story mode.

[lilac dust]

I would love to play that map on the battlefield engine

[edgy oriole]

i wish i couldve just installed multiplayer only

[warped pulsar]

I think on Battle net you can choose what to install

Atleast it did on Cold War

[edgy oriole]

you have to install the campaign

[eager spire]

I just saw footage of DMZ.

[edgy oriole]

i didnt install coop or warzone

[eager spire]

That looks really boring.

[edgy oriole]

its literally warzone without jumping from a plane.

[eager spire]

it's the entire Warzone 2 map but with more AI than players

[warped pulsar]

I heard Warzone 2 is like 115GB

[eager spire]

yup

[hexed mango]

yeah i dont plan on playing warzone but the campaign was pretty fun

[lunar finch]

It looks like a less shit hazard zone but still shit

[chilly dove]

I pronunce pwn as own, as it should be btw.

[eager spire]

I think it's basically the same

like this sucks

Shroud looked fuckin bored playing it.

[lunar finch]

💀

[warped pulsar]

And people thought COD was gonna re-invent the extraction royal genre

[edgy oriole]

it looks better than hazard zone ill give it that

[eager spire]

in fact the only times he seemed interested were when he
-Got on the extract helicopter to leave
-Found a infinite money glitch

[chilly dove]

so you give it shroud out of 10 then

[eager spire]

i give it a 🥱 out of 10

[warped pulsar]

Not really good than, since they spend like 4 years on it, compared to Hazard zone was made in like a few months and no effort

[eager spire]

Warzone 2, is..warzone 2, i don't really have much to say about it, apparently there are different tiers of armor now

[hexed mango]

not armor!

[eager spire]

and there's a backpack system

like apex

loadout camping is gonna be an issue

[chilly jacinth]

it all circles back to how blackout worked

[tiny imp]

they add aqua combat in warzone 2!

[chilly dove]

lol what's wrong with armour?

[eager spire]

...funnily enough at no point during the Warzone 2 gameplay i watched did anyone go in water.

[eager spire]

nothing, but i feel like having different tiers of armor could be annoying compared to how it originally was in Warzone

[warped pulsar]

Does COD have any destruction yet? Like actually building going down or atleast a wall?

[eager spire]

no.

but i don't care about that so i don't expect it from CoD.

[hexed mango]

no

[eager spire]

it's not the kind of thing they do.

[arctic grove]

Dynamic destruction in multiplayer games this big won’t be a thing for like

5+ yrs

[hexed mango]

it is kinda annoying when a vehicle cant go through a fence tho

[chilly jacinth]

CoD ghosts had some destructible stuff

[eager spire]

yes but nobody liked CoD Ghosts

[chilly dove]

man the amount of arbitrary gameplay complaints for arcade shooters is enough to make my head spin.

[eager spire]

things being destructible doesn't make a game good

[arctic grove]

what do you mean I can’t blow up a 9 story skyscraper that’s also outfitted with an entire in depth interior

[warped pulsar]

Yeah, When I tried Ground War in MW2, my eyes bled at the sight of a tank crashing into a skinny pole and not breaking it

[arctic grove]

Stuff like that is pretty dumb tho tbh so I understand that

[warped pulsar]

What about the Finals? It's all about the destruction. Still in development, but the early review were high

[eager spire]

I'm interested in the concept of The Finals, being a 3v3v3v3 arena shooter.

Destruction doesn't matter that much to me, i can take it or leave it.

[hallow sierra]

do ppl expect transport helis to do anything against attack helis

[warped pulsar]

Destruction does help with ending campers

[hexed mango]

yes

[chilly jacinth]

transports shit on attack helis

unless the pilot and gunners are shit

[chilly dove]

i don't use vehicles often, but when I pilot transport heli or seat #2, we hunt the crap out of anything that moves in the sky

[fiery shoal]

watch me get invited to the finals when my kid comes

[warped pulsar]

I don't need total destruction, just enough to break a wall and make campers vulnerable

[eager spire]

Apparently the next playtest isn't happening till next year.

[fiery shoal]

i want the side of the stadium to be able to be opened

[pine roost]

cough cough the finals

not skyscraper levels mind you

[arctic grove]

Well how big is a lobby in that game?

[eager spire]

12 players, 4 teams of 3.

[chilly dove]

how would you rate the destruction in Rainbow Six: Siege?

[eager spire]

fine i guess

[warped pulsar]

SO to accomplish that level of destruction, they had to make the maps and player count much smaller. Even with the skills of the ex-BF devs

[eager spire]

i don't really care about Siege

[arctic grove]

So 12 players total, now let’s tone it up to 64 or 128

[chilly dove]

oh yeah that game

[eager spire]

it makes sense considering the game is more of an arena shooter than anything like Battlefield.

[chilly dove]

there's another company that's ex Dice and made a 3rd person shooter. arc something

[eager spire]

same company

they're making two games

[chilly dove]

ah

[pine roost]

arc raiders

coming out after finals

[arctic grove]

I wonder if destruction will be the one thing people talk about the finals for

[pine roost]

but since it's coop I'm not all that interested

[pine roost]

The gunplay is really nice

[fiery shoal]

i thought we didnt have ETA for either game

[pine roost]

no eta, but it has been confirmed that arc raiders was delayed

[fiery shoal]

iirc theres coming soon and coming 2023

[pine roost]

i remember people being in a huff about it, but I don't mind since I prefer the finals

[warped pulsar]

I think Arc Raiders and The finals share the same universe

[eager spire]

I heard the next playtest for The Finals is happening next year.

[pine roost]

is it another closed test?

[warped pulsar]

I hope early next year, and not fall

Most likely

[eager spire]

probably

[chilly dove]

just watched the alpha trailer for The Finals. Why does that look so much like Sienne Crossing but no blue filter? even the broken flooring looked right out of BF3

[eager spire]

probably cause it's a city

[lunar finch]

Lmaooo i lowkey get hard carried by c5, i looked at my endgame and it said i had 15 smg kills... i went 35-6

[eager spire]

and it's former DICE devs

[chilly dove]

not all cities look the same, chill

[lunar finch]

Most cities do look the same

They arent wrong

[chilly dove]

i mean in certain regions but in the domain of all cities, no.

the windowing just looked very dice-style paris. but yellow painted walls

[lunar finch]

Wait... did they change the layout for 64 bt on exposure?

[eager spire]

i think so

[hazy lance]

Yes. literally everybody hates it and wants it back the old way.

[lunar finch]

Lmaoo

I kinda like this version more

[hazy lance]

you're honestly the first person i hav ecome across that has said that

and I play with a lot of peeps

[lunar finch]

Old bt felt kinda mid when defending

This version is more fun for defenders tbh

I hated the final sector on the other exposure bt

[hazy lance]

it was fun on both sides

imo

[wide shore]

I somehow lost rush chaos on Valparaiso today. AMA

[chilly dove]

what is tonight's fnb theme?

[wide shore]

32v32 gunmaster

[hexed mango]

welcome to los pollos hermanos, my name is gustavo fring, but you can call me sus

[hexed mango]

team gunmaster super

[lunar finch]

Ive never played a fnb before, might play tonight

[hexed mango]

https://discord.gg/battlefield?event=1039132106703507467

i wish they would do more of the hunter modes, crossbow and knife

[chilly dove]

defib vs knife vs repair tool squad TDM

[kindred flint]

eventually ill get in a vehicle driven by a squadmate that isnt totally moronic and finish off this kills/assists shit

[wide shore]

Just try to spawn into the RAM

[lunar finch]

Ive always wondered, ive never sued the repair tool before in 2042 so like can you repair the dog robot with it?

[wide shore]

That thing is fuckin nuts.

[arctic grove]

I just hop into a transport and throw spotting grenades out the window

[kindred flint]

its ground vehicles only

[arctic grove]

Oh damn

why only ground vehicles

[hexed mango]

yes

[arctic grove]

There’s only one vehicle an entire team can spawn on from the deployment menu and it’s rarely picked anyways

[hexed mango]

and boris turret, and crawford turret, and literally anything placeable, like deploy beacon, irish shit, etc

[lunar finch]

U can repair Irish's shield with it?😭

[arctic grove]

[hybrid sky]

Need 2 for 2042 rush 4v4 dm if interested.

[lunar finch]

What if i dm you that im not interested?

[arctic grove]

Then he will forcefully recruit you

[eager spire]

what if i'm interested but don't DM you

[lunar finch]

[arctic grove]

Telekinesis

Actually never mind thats moving things with your mind not just knowing things

[hybrid sky]

You can dm anytime 😘

[eager spire]

you're thinking of telepathy

[arctic grove]

[royal swan]

What's going on now

[eager spire]

good question

[lunar finch]

Is that a promise

[hybrid sky]

Negative

[lunar finch]

:(

[lilac dust]

https://twitter.com/T0TALfps/status/1591206290474545152 I'm late .... But NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[arctic grove]

NO

PLEASE

[lilac dust]

Oh I guess i'm not late. Is this news to all of you lol

Was posted an hour ago

[edgy oriole]

dude ive only dicked on people sitting up there. ive never in my life seen what it looks like there

blow it off the map

[lilac dust]

It's official. We need a reworked reveal trailer for the game now

False advertising at the beginning

[royal swan]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

NOO

Why

[lilac dust]

God I hope we at least get to keep hourglass stadium

[royal swan]

Wasn't there a achievement or player card to get for gliding from that location to the oil rig

[eager spire]

get fucking rekt useless area

[royal swan]

Wasn't useless for Sundance

[arctic grove]

Why can’t they just make it an out of bounds area for everything but air vehicles?

It’s good for getting away for a quick repair or something

[lilac dust]

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/ys7zui/hear_me_out_dice_move_e1_mountain_to_c1_point/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button Welp they didn't listen to reddit I guess

Sad times

[arctic grove]

That would’ve been a good move

[lilac dust]

That's the equivalent of saying D1 orbital or the facility in exposure is useless if they were theoretically on the edge of the map

[royal swan]

I literally just went to that post a minute ago lmao

[lunar finch]

Yeahh last place id listen to is reddit

[royal swan]

It was a smart move like a mountain with only one good way up

It won't be a hot area

Same with the f flags on top of the glacier

[lilac dust]

https://gyazo.com/e4d2ef918125962454fe324b792adeff

Someone give whoever designed this a paycheck in the mail

[royal swan]

Looks good but a problem, I still see flat open sand

[lilac dust]

Add containers to sand. Problem solved. Game of the year

Containers solve everything

[royal swan]

Those buildings aren't really big either

[lilac dust]

[royal swan]

So make two story houses

More military equipment

More cars

Make houses less empty

[lilac dust]

I would love the city area to always be lit up and not require the sandstorm for it

[royal swan]

Make it a night map

Hell actually that would double the maps, just include a night and day versions

[arctic grove]

Yeah that is a pretty good idea there but it’s weird to imagine a whole stadium right next to a highway

Like right in front of it

[royal swan]

No it's fairly common

Mostly in cities

[chilly jacinth]

Its very common

[arctic grove]

Ah, it’s still a good idea to me just a funny thought

[royal swan]

Literally the night and day map version is a incredible idea

[lilac dust]

Dayglass Nightglass

[solid imp]

https://tenor.com/view/bbc-bird-silly-daytime-nighttime-gif-7197397

[arctic grove]

That little park right there would need some more work

[edgy oriole]

i hope state of decay 3 has weather events

[royal swan]

Yo someone tweet this to the dev or something, getting night and day maps not only will technically double the amount of maps, but change the game flow.

[lilac dust]

and it will give more use to the new laser sights 👌

[royal swan]

And the flashlight

Seriously who uses the flashlight

[arctic grove]

Joe

[lilac dust]

I've seen it once in my life..... in the trailer for manifest

[chilly jacinth]

I've seen 2 people use it so far

it didn't help them at all

[tacit sphinx]

the flashlight is actually surprisingly effective in very specific situations

someone hops round a corner it can actually quite well dazzle you long enough that they can start firing first

but i think in that case i'd probably rather take a flashbang if i wanted that effect

[lilac dust]

It's weird that they had it in at launch when manifest is the only map even remotely close to a night map

Would've expected flashlights to be added in season 3, but I guess it's ready for it if it turns out to be a night map

[tacit sphinx]

i mean they're just an option generally

looks kinda neat, can be used in buildings/enclosed spaces even if they're not super dark, has a blinding effect etc

i don't think you need like fully dark areas/maps to be like "ok there's a flashlight you can put on your gun if you want"

[low timber]

I’ve used the flashlight once with a positive result, enemy was inside the Exposure tunnel and I was outside, so I had brighter background plus the flashlight.

The tunnel that’s right next to the conference room with the hologram table

[arctic grove]

Spearheads working name according to temporyal was lights out

Perhaps flashlights will be useful inside the facility if it’s weather event causes power inside to go out

For clarification it seems Spearhead is the S3 map name

[low timber]

And we just got new lasers that say in their description that they are stronger lasers for darker environments

[royal swan]

Why does manifest out of bounds area looks more better than the actual map

I wanna fight on the dam

[arctic grove]

DICE Logic

[tacit sphinx]

tbf the sea wall does look super cool if you fly over there, not sure how well it would work as a full map though since it's quite narrow and would basically just be the same section repeated

[solid imp]

stealth at skybox dropping bombs manages to maximize the scare factor of the new HE sounds

[green bough]

Do we know anything about the new specialist other than that they are an assualt specialist

[arctic grove]

It reminds me of the Ju87 honestly

[arctic grove]

Early, possibly outdated gadget description

[royal swan]

Best way, get a wildcat and drive to the end of the map on the bumpy hill and use default weapons and tickle his health

[green bough]

What does that mean?

[arctic grove]

It was a pre s1 leak iirc, but I can find it for you if you want, although I don’t have image perms so I’ll just send the link if I find the tweet

[royal swan]

they are forced to move or get killed due to their low health

[green bough]

Can you send me the link in interested in seeing it

[tacit sphinx]

yeah i think it’s safe to basically just go “yeah we don’t know what the specialist is”, nothing really lines up with assault + that info is from months ago

[arctic grove]

https://twitter.com/temporyal/status/1514936581085409287?s=46&t=tWLiiAYLhIfzYfDStK0Ogw

[arctic grove]

Yup that’s why I definitely think it’s outdated

Fits more of an engie role

[green bough]

Yeah doesn’t really seem like an assault

[tacit sphinx]

also temporyal confirmed that the specialist isn’t called hale (presumably from what he can tell at least)

[green bough]

But temporyal did get lis and Crawford right in the same post so…

[arctic grove]

Oh really? Interesting

[royal swan]

Had a remote control drone

That was like the r6s drones

[arctic grove]

One interesting thing is a potential 4th specialist was never mentioned even up till today iirc

But dice apparently did get pretty good with holding stuff from temporyal

[tacit sphinx]

i mean he’s only ever reporting stuff that’s in the files, but as he makes very clear that makes no guarantee it’ll come to the game

[royal swan]

I'll will be happy and eventually mad that it ends up being a mortar specialist

[tacit sphinx]

like i don’t doubt at all that there are mentions of a specialist named hale with an rc car, but there’s a very good chance that idea has since been scrapped or changed

[royal swan]

Bring mortars

[tacit sphinx]

we knew there were going to be 4 specialists in year 1 from before launch, 1 per season

[royal swan]

We need them back after bfv failed to add them

[granite island]

Wow

[tacit sphinx]

unless you mean the specific details like the names

[kindred flint]

are you on the OW2 dev team by chance?

[granite island]

We actually managed to defend c1 on breakthrough on breakaway

[royal swan]

No, this was my one good idea for this game

[granite island]

Orbital at night does not sound fun

[royal swan]

The one out of all of the shit ones that the community keeps saying

[granite island]

Community got some dumb ideas

[tacit sphinx]

the 64p orbital layout could potentially be sick at night with the floodlights providing a very different atmosphere

[royal swan]

Add mortars pls

[granite island]

I can't see the tornado when it's night

[kindred flint]

night map + dragons breath drum mag for the auto 12m?

[tacit sphinx]

but yeah ground foliage and stuff in the dark would probably be a bit of a pain when it comes to camping

[royal swan]

If we are getting claymores in aow we gotta add mortars

[granite island]

Only way you're going to be able to see it when the lighting lights up the tornado

[royal swan]

Gotta balance the annoying equipment

[kindred flint]

was it bf1 that had periodic flares that would light up the map?

or am i thinking of war thunders tank mode shit blends together from years ago now

[granite island]

Bfv players shoot flares 24/7

The red sky

[kindred flint]

....are you personally attacking me here?

listen playing hyper aggressive scout with flares and a trench carbine was just fun

[royal swan]

Shotguns are great for shooting flares

[rocky kraken]

They should change the 1st person running

It is shit

Feels like I’m playing phantom forces

[royal swan]

Have tactical Sprint limited

[granite island]

No no no no

Limited tactical sprint on this game would be crazy

[rocky kraken]

It just feels

Very static

[royal swan]

Then remove the run then

[rocky kraken]

Like the transition from running to not is very bad

[royal swan]

The run is obsolete, just make tactical Sprint limited

[rocky kraken]

Or at least some more camera movement

Or something

[hallow sierra]

first time knowing that?

[royal swan]

Slower ads speed

On tactic sprint

Just slightly

[rocky kraken]

It just feels awkward to me

[royal swan]

Slower

This game looks good when nothing happens but the sound and effects are just 🤢

[hallow sierra]

footstep audio is weird dont know why they added the same sound when someone jump off a ledge for both teams

[kindred flint]

lmao why does the game put me in a lobby thats 12 tickets vs 96.. holy shit

[solid imp]

Unless it was like BF2 where it's tied to your overall loadout/armor class to determine how much stamina you have

[white geyser]

Rush and ground superiority wasn't good enough in the portal since I only see all conquest matchup, if only they add breakthough and other content to be added portal...

[hybrid sky]

Defuse!!!

[slate meadow]

Make rush 128 player playable in aow all the time

[hexed mango]

where is perri

[arctic grove]

Eaten by Joe

Matter of a fact yeah where is he?

[frosty flint]

Quick Q, I'm a new player to BF2042:

Which of the snipes is best (and why)?

[lilac dust]

Hmmm so temporyal thinks we might get a new weather event in season 3's map and that we also might get a blizzard in the reworked breakaway according to datamines 👀 👀 👀

[arctic grove]

DXR because of its longer range

[arctic grove]

NOICE

[frosty flint]

What attachments would you suggest?

[granite island]

Damn

Almost got all tier 3 ribbons

EMP was last

Tier 2

[hybrid sky]

Need 2 for 4v4 rush

[kindred flint]

god damn its fucking impossible for me to finish this kills/assists with vehicles

[granite island]

Which vehicle

[mental delta]

Heavy ones

[arctic grove]

I tend to use it with higher magnification scopes and the extended barrel

[granite island]

I suggest trying killing every wildcat in the match

then use heavy vehicles

[kindred flint]

my single digit iq squadmate spawning an abrams twice in the match and couldnt do shit with it

[frosty flint]

Oh i see so to max out the velocity

Thx bro ❤️

[arctic grove]

Of course man

[frosty flint]

I hope its okay if i ask more questions ill have a lot of them

[mental delta]

I only got 8 kills with it and then discovered I needed 25 kills to complete the mission

[mental delta]

Ask them

[frosty flint]

well mostly i'll need to fiddle with the guns myself to get a feeling for what i like lol

Though i was playing around with the SWS and i noticed that close combat rounds advertised faster RPM with no cost to projectile velocity

but now i got told to use DXR anyways lul

[mental delta]

SWS-10 is perfect when you begin with sniping in this game because it's accurate and mobile, once you unlocked Gol Magnum I advise you to play it too

[frosty flint]

i have all the snipes unlocked, i grinded XP in bot lobbies

hence why im trying to find one which feels good to me

So i understood that I should build DXR for max projectile velocity

what do you suggest on SWS?

[mental delta]

Lol I did the same with bots

[frosty flint]

haha xD

[mental delta]

SWS-10 with larger scope zoom than the first one, bipod and long barrel or silencer

[frosty flint]

Ooooh silencer 🤔

What do silencers even do exactly?

[mental delta]

Prevents you from getting spotted on the minimap and also the fire flash when you fire is less important I think, it can also impact accuracy/recoil

[frosty flint]

ah okay makes sense

[quaint vector]

Supressor also makes huge bullet drop with slow bullet velocity.

[mental delta]

Yup but it's worth it though at smaller ranges

[quaint vector]

That's true, only for close/mid range

[frosty flint]

oooh okay

[mental delta]

Yeah longer ranges require long barrel

[frosty flint]

And im looking now at the ammo types on the DXR...

none of them suggest penalties to projectile speed

But some advertise faster RPM

Doesn't that make the high impact rounds obsolete?

[mental delta]

It could impact damages if the RPM is increased

[bronze sand]

Finally finished my battle pass 😕

[frosty flint]

Don't the snipes oneshot to the face anyways?

[quaint vector]

Yup, but you have to be accurate

[next onyx]

They're removing E point.

The out look station on breakaway.

The point really high up.

[frosty flint]

Lol i come from destiny 2, a game with aim assist... accuracy is not my strong point

[next onyx]

I can't say I'm surprised.

[frosty flint]

though hey better get good late than never

[mental delta]

Yes they do

[next onyx]

Bf5s aim assist was perfect.

During the Rework Process, the team often looks at areas that are not beneficial to the experience

Breakaway's Outlook Station on #Battlefield 2042 is one of them, and we felt it's best to place resources elsewhere

This location has been removed, to make other areas better🧨

[slender isle]

They also said this on the blog. Also there’s a map view of manifest there too

[next onyx]

Am aware of manifest plus there's so much info you know you gloss over it.

[slender isle]

I glossed over the new specialist being assault

Only realised last night

[inner roost]

I personally prefer 2042's aim assist

[mental delta]

I am already disappointed by Manifest rework, playable space is almost still the same and map will still be too large

[arctic grove]

Manifest as it is is fine with size and play area, but certain sectors needed to break line of sight

[slender isle]

I don’t know about you, but manifest is the exact same size as the orbital rework, and has lost a sector plus another objective

I think it looks pretty good

Didn’t need much changed on it, but it has had enough changed that it’ll feel different

And the lighting change will probably help the most

[mental delta]

Orbital rework is the best map to me and because points are all close to each other but on the picture of Manifest map we can see on the blog points still feel too much distanced to each other

[sour meadow]

battlefield 2042: have fun getting farmed by helicopters and twitch streamers

[slender isle]

Distance is fine. You have to remember that the mountain is not that far away. Probably same distance between C and A flag on orbital

From all obj

The flow on manifest I enjoy now, so this’ll just get better

[mental delta]

I hope so cause mountains are empty except for the top where there are those two points

[frosty flint]

Wait battlefield has aim assist on MnK?

[umbral island]

Nice pfp

[frosty flint]

Ty lol

[slender isle]

Everything has more cover, they’ve removed the far north west objective, they’ve changed the A sector almost completely, C looks much better and more compact, B looks a lot better too

I just want to see if they’ve fixed the ship obj and made it better

Also less cranes = less snipers = better flow

[mental delta]

Yeah but I hope those additional covers aren't just concrete and sandbags cause it's too much destructible

[slender isle]

It’s literally a shipping container map lmao

That’s like it’s thing

[mental delta]

Why I said "additionnal covers" and not just "covers" lol

Containers are already on the map yes but sometimes not where they should

[slender isle]

The only place containers won’t be is the hill

[arctic grove]

The hill is alright as it is, could use some more routes though

[granite island]

If only you could move the containers

Like in just cause

[dense hedge]

why did they cut off?

why is this server no longer an official one

[hexed mango]

it’s still the battlefield server but isn’t the official battlefield server for ea/dice, it’s community run with members of ea and dice in here

[lilac dust]

But also Discord have gotten extremely stingy in the past year or so with verified requirements. It's not like twitter where you keep it no matter what (well maybe that's a bad example cos twitter might get deleted off the face of the earth any day now thanks to Elon)

[slender isle]

EA servers down for 2042?

[arctic grove]

[solid imp]

now? no.. playing right now

[slender isle]

Fuckin EA app keeps telling me to buy the game when I launch through steam

saying it's a problem on their end

[solid imp]

you still have origin right?

[quiet shell]

It'd be nice if the MCS 880 had a wider spread cause right now its next to useless

[solid imp]

Just to clarify-Steam requires Origin, if you changed to EA Desktop it won't work

[edgy oriole]

they should make the mcs more effective at longer range and lower effective range of the auto. bc right now why wouldnt you use auto

[slender isle]

Well it's been working for the past 2 weeks

[queen flicker]

+1 for not being able to log in. "Unable to load persistence data"

[cursive orchid]

is there any way to fix my mouse latency geting delayed by like 4 seconds

[slender isle]

Buddy of mine lowered his polling rate on his mouse to around 500

see if that helps

[kindred flint]

just think 4 seconds into the future? 5head

[upbeat sand]

maybe you should of been french instead of Corsican

[kindred flint]

another fucking match where i get moron vehicle drivers wtf is this

[sour meadow]

stealth choppers have ruined this fucking game

what braindead dev thought being able to spam bombs while not being able to be locked on AND have countermeasures at the same time was a good idea

[kindred flint]

MAV who lets c5 get thrown on us..doesnt move from the cap point....then an abrams that drives into a fucking ditch that gets stuck

[sour meadow]

meanwhile the enemy armor is point, right?

[kindred flint]

well considering the MAV got face fucked by another mav that drove off a ledge in front of us before the c5 yes

[sour meadow]

i wanna play 2042 so bad but every match has someone in a stealth chopper shitposting the entire server

[kindred flint]

i was just constantly hacking a stealth chopper...dude probably never got shot down

[sour meadow]

exactly

people too busy running c5

[kindred flint]

because expecting morons that cant drive vehicles they choose to spawn in, to have an AA is too much

[sour meadow]

throwing it around corners to get free kills without effort

makes me wanna buy mw2

at least i can't get violated by helicopters in that

idk

everything is shit now

$70?

fuck that

i'm just gonna play metro

[sour meadow]

wake me up when dice nerfs stealth coppers

[limpid pond]

I'm finally off work

[sour meadow]

at least that one takes skill

[wise zodiac]

5? 7? kills without dying?

I dont remember

[sour meadow]

you don't need to press Z and win the game with it

[next onyx]

The stealth chopper is annoying. Stealth mode needs less accuracy.

Brainless orbit bombers.

[limpid pond]

100%

[sour meadow]

it's literal ape mode

make the bombs swappable with the AGMs

[limpid pond]

It's bad enough aa doesn't lock on more than 1 time before they run away to replenish flares

[sour meadow]

and make it so you can't use them in stealth mode

fixed

i would use the wildcat but everytime i do there's a sundance or a mackay fisting my ass with c5

[limpid pond]

That's me but with paik

[low cypress]

but compared to the bombs why would anyone ever use the AGMS

[limpid pond]

I will suicide a annoying wildcat

[sour meadow]

idk easier time hitting tanks i guess

easier to hit moving targets

like cars

just do something for christ's sake

[limpid pond]

It's called grab a gun and fight

[next onyx]

Bombs have way more collateral damage.

[quiet shell]

I hope DICE intends to overhaul the spawn screen cause it is still FUCKING AWFUL

Like holy shit

[next onyx]

And the spawn system.

[limpid pond]

What's wrong with the spawn screen

[next onyx]

Hmm yes I like spawning in front of people.

[limpid pond]

Spawn system is kinda dumb on occasions but the spawn screen???

[calm bison]

Ah fuck my tinnitus kicked in

[quiet shell]

YES why do we have two different squad spawn preventations?! What is the difference between a red square and a green square that says "in-combat"

YOU WONT LET ME SPAWN EITHER WAY

SO PICK ONE OR THE OTHER

[limpid pond]

Pretty sure the difference is green means your teammate is getting shot at and red mean your teammate got hit

[sour meadow]

it's called DICE will never figure out how to balance aircraft properly

[limpid pond]

Or green may be your teammates engaged an enemy and red means they engaged back

[limpid pond]

Yeah that's just how it works sometimes man

[quiet shell]

It's fucking horrendous. The weapon selection should not take up the entire map, selection on a teammate to spawn on is impossible because there's no zoom in feature unless I click on their name in the squad list which has zero click feedback for me to know if I even clicked on them

[sour meadow]

"In combat
In combat
No space to deploy
In combat
dead"

[calm bison]

Buff jets

[solid imp]

player in parachute

[calm bison]

I hate that

It’s so fucking dumb

[sour meadow]

"Player requires foot massage and ham sandwich"

[limpid pond]

Weird. Whenever I click on a teammate it gives me an audio cue and weapon selection taking up half the map? I gotta see that

[sour meadow]

"Consider purchasing WinRAR to deploy"

[calm bison]

“We know your teammate is probably safe and all but it’s too much to ask you to pull your parachute”

[quiet shell]

Fuck this in particular. BATTLEFIELD 3 AND 4 had this figured out by just auto-deploying my parachute

[limpid pond]

This. This right here is my only complaint. I can't spawn on a teammate in the air that's dumb

[solid imp]

Hand player ham sandwich

You don't have ham sandwich in your inventory
Pick up ham sandwich
There are no ham sandwiches nearby
Move north
You move north, you see a deli
Order ham sandwich
You do not have enough gold

[limpid pond]

But some more boins then duh

[calm bison]

I had a sub from Publix today and thinking of a deli rn is not helping

[limpid pond]

How are you a mod and not buying boins

[solid imp]

🤣

I always buy boins

[calm bison]

Fools

[solid imp]

I'm working toward my boin transcendence phase 2

[limpid pond]

You should have like 140k boins

I got 1500 boins

Not a lot but I'll get more

[calm bison]

Like a real gamer Chad, I bought BFV boins instead of the 2042 boins

[limpid pond]

Fake chad

[calm bison]

No

[limpid pond]

Bf 2042 boins are the only ones that count

[calm bison]

>

[limpid pond]

Nope >

[next onyx]

BIUY THE STUFF YOU LIKE.

[calm bison]

I was there

[next onyx]

DON'T WASTE IT ALL.

[calm bison]

When the boins fell

[limpid pond]

Nope only buy boins

[calm bison]

I was there when the all the epic items were and still are paid for by boins

[limpid pond]

Ignore your bills credit card debts and kids

[calm bison]

I was there

[next onyx]

Time to try to open BIOS.

Again.

[limpid pond]

Buy boins

[next onyx]

I think it's the Del key.

[calm bison]

When the armory still had rotations

[next onyx]

Bf5 armoury was better.

The bundles had more value.

[calm bison]

It was

[limpid pond]

Boins are bouns

Boins

[next onyx]

For 1500 you got so much.

[calm bison]

The UI was rather sluggish tho

[next onyx]

Yeah it was rather fucky wucky.

I can't believe I'm unironically saying fucky wucky.

Anyways be back.

[quiet shell]

Maybe season 4 will focus on UI overhaul

[calm bison]

BFV just had better skins in general

[solid imp]

Fortification builder 2042

[calm bison]

Bring back fortifications to Battlefield

They were good

[limpid pond]

No

[calm bison]

Yes

[limpid pond]

Jk yes they were

In bf5 they good

[calm bison]

Build your own cover

It was genius

[limpid pond]

Extra bxp

Yes it was

I agree with your intelligence

[quiet shell]

Speaking of fortifications, I found a bug while exploring battle of the bulge and found that some of the buildings were directly ported over from BFV, and one of them has an invisible prompt to bring up the fortification hammer. No hammer spawns unfortunately but a fortified window does spawn. Guess Ripple Effect missed that

Not saying cause I know DICE devs watch this place for bugs and I don't want them to take that away from me

They already took away my climbing hovercrafts

[calm bison]

We downgraded from build your own cover to no cover

[limpid pond]

Haha those were funny

Hourglass memories

[calm bison]

DICE hates fun

[limpid pond]

Not true

You can get boins for fun

[calm bison]

Also

[solid imp]

Orbital beta hovercraft climbers were amazing

[calm bison]

Bring back squad requisition points

[limpid pond]

You also get a discount if you're a ea play subscriber

[quiet shell]

hovercraft climbing is the one bug I wish DICE kept as a feature

[limpid pond]

Yeah they were fun. But bolted pre nerf 30mm was not

[solid imp]

agreed

[limpid pond]

Bolte

[calm bison]

The problem with the bolte was that there were too many

It was in the wrong category

[limpid pond]

Nah they were fast and the 30mm stunned you

[calm bison]

Now you never see them

[limpid pond]

It could. Just shoot near you and you were 100% dead

Turning radius also was good on them like too good now it's bad

[calm bison]

Buff jets and attack helicopters

[kindred flint]

lol the cannon was waaaay overtuned

[limpid pond]

Nah buff smgs

[kindred flint]

just like on the transports

[quiet shell]

I believe the intent was that there would be a lot but that they would be weak to the NTW-50. Unfortunately dice didn't line up unlocking the NTW-50 with the bolt so everyone suffered for it

[calm bison]

Yeah basically

[kindred flint]

so fast moving light tank....high rof/splash cannon = fun times as infantry

[calm bison]

I do miss the days when seeing an attack helicopter actually brought fear

[limpid pond]

No bad times as infantry. It could stun a literal whole group of people

[calm bison]

Now it’s just target practice

I’m gonna admit it

[limpid pond]

You were unable to move when being shot at by the 30mm

[calm bison]

BFV is the only game where tanks are scary

Not BF4

Not BF1

[limpid pond]

Nah I die to tanks 24/7 in the 2042

[calm bison]

BFV has scary tanks

Like you round the corner and shit your pants scary

[limpid pond]

Oh yeah 100%

In 2042 I just get blasted through the corner

They should advertise boins in game

Do Like mobile games you just get a ad for boins in the middle of fighting someone and you have to wait 5 seconds to exit out of it

[dire quest]

Would any Last-Gen players be interested in a 124 player persistent server?

Technically 64 players + 60 ai

But still 124 players

[kindred flint]

loool oh yeah forgot about that "feature"

[arctic grove]

You got 60 AI?

[kindred flint]

did dice even fucking test this shit?

[arctic grove]

Oh wait, you can only have 60 AI on one team

…dammit

[dire quest]

Wrong

[limpid pond]

Nah last Gen shouldn't be a thing still

[arctic grove]

don’t give me hope

[dire quest]

30v30 ai

[arctic grove]

Fuckin XP farmers had to ruin it for us

[limpid pond]

Just have spectating for old Gen do they can you watch

[dire quest]

If you set up a conquest server and select pve ai you can select up to 30 per team

32 players + 30 ai on each team

[arctic grove]

Yea I know, but I miss my 60v60 ai

[limpid pond]

59vs 60 ai

Unless you count yourself

[arctic grove]

I think you can only do that if it’s actual players

So it would really be you vs 60 ai

[limpid pond]

Nope you're wrong end of story I'm right

[arctic grove]
