battlefield-2042

[mental cave]

[robust vapor]

maybe should've worn a helmet

[mental cave]

nah

helmet is bulletproof not knife proof

[robust vapor]

true

big brain

[mental cave]

[ebon pilot]

that's just common sense

[robust vapor]

but then again it covers your head not your neck

loppity lop the knife goes

[hexed mango]

obviously

[arctic grove]

I have a question

Does Bf5 definitive edition include skin packs?

[grave prism]

it includes everything from the tides of war, i dont think it has any others

[arctic grove]

So that includes all gear and weapons right?

What about outfit packs like the ghillie suits n stuff

[fringe kestrel]

so whats the best mode to play tonight on 2042?

[idle lion]

I think the skynex AA system would be a perfect addition to 2042

[spiral folio]

Cant be anything toooo powerful

Like the AA in the game is pretty much 1970s tech the way it behaves

Same with the recoilless

Heat seeking like its the dark ages

No javelines either if you noticed

[idle lion]

Well its like a very modernised gepard

https://youtu.be/pb5_F4_Eod8

[spiral folio]

Actual modern weapons add for unfun gameplay

Thats why sniper rifles arent like the real ones the army uses

They're clunky spacefied versions of old rifkes

[idle lion]

Yeahh

[spiral folio]

Like no m107

[idle lion]

The ntw is nice tho

[spiral folio]

No like 6.5mm or anything

I went back to the dxr cause the big one is slow and clunky

[idle lion]

I like trolling by cq sniping with the big boy

[spiral folio]

For close the starter rifle is better cause it can get underbarrel attachments

[idle lion]

Yes but it doesnt 1 shot body shot

[spiral folio]

So you can snipe and have like a grenade launcher too

Well the crossbow will if you want memes

At medium range like in the 100ish area the dxr or the first one will be good

[arctic grove]

Question, how do i play Bf2042 with stock weapons?

[spiral folio]

Loke 6x or 5x scope

[arctic grove]

Stock weapons feels god awful

[spiral folio]

Stock?

Bot battles

[arctic grove]

No mods

Thanks

[spiral folio]

Do solo bot battles and unlock the stuff

[idle lion]

Ah no attachments

Yeah

[arctic grove]

Also, how do i tune my controller settings to be more like Mw2

I got my controller settings for Mw2 tuned down perfectly

[spiral folio]

Helps you learn the weapon without real consequences

[idle lion]

Like bf4 your gonna have to suck it up for 20 kills to get some attachments

[arctic grove]

For 2042 it feels god awful cause i cant change the controller settings for the life of me

[spiral folio]

Bot battles makes 2042 a lot more replayable

[idle lion]

I have no idea how mw 2 is like to help there

[spiral folio]

Like if you dont wanna deal with the bullshit

Play some bot matches. Mow down 200 bots with a minibird

[arctic grove]

Mkay

Thanks

[spiral folio]

Like practicing vehicles or learning/unlocking mods for a new weapon, the solos are ideal

[arctic grove]

Ooh

Thank you!

Now i gotta re-install bf2042 lol

Time to finally finish hitman 3

[robust vapor]

the crossbow is lit tho

just use the explosive bolt

gotta hit a target once and let it do the work

[spiral folio]

Yea crossbows my meme gun

If i wanna actually contribute i use dxr or ac42

[hexed mango]

im boutta spend $80

[robust vapor]

i mean in cqb areas if you land a shot you may get killed earlier

but the detonation sequence happens right after you got shot

and there you go. an after death kill

[vocal adder]

i always pre order like a week or couple days before the release

[hexed mango]

yeah i just really love the game, ill probably wait until like feb to make a decision tho

https://youtu.be/zrHb2p4YPT0
ohhhh shit

[vocal adder]

Yeah i love the game also but i got lost and didn't play again even though i absolutely love star wars

[hexed mango]

i played jfo 3 times

[vocal adder]

plus i kept on getting rekt 😂

[hexed mango]

omg idris is in cb77

[chilly jacinth]

cyberboins

[hexed mango]

Introducing Idris Elba as Solomon Reed, an FIA Agent for the New United States of America. Team up and take on an impossible mission of espionage & survival.
oh i shoulda read the description lmao

[tepid agate]

Strange why 2042 has gone down to 15k on steam over this weekend 🧐🤔

[brisk imp]

Battlefield 2042

[hexed mango]

weekend hasnt started really

[tepid agate]

It's 9:30am for me on Saturday lol

[hexed mango]

yeah but the US is like 80-85% of the playerbase

[tepid agate]

I thought FNB begins the weekend

[hexed mango]

fnb isnt for a few hours

3 to be exact

[wide shore]

It’s not free this weekend

[tepid agate]

Oh I see should shoot up then. I guess weekdays is for people with more time off haha

[hexed mango]

thats exactly what the weekdays are

[tepid agate]

I know but last week it was at 21k after the free weekend

[hexed mango]

for 1 day

[tepid agate]

There's that 21k haha

[wide shore]

Everyone is already bored Kek

[hexed mango]

for one day

here lets do this

[tepid agate]

Manifest just got a rework too

[untold rune]

Anyone wanna play, please

[tepid agate]

Anyways, I'm not hating or bashing, just suprised it went back down

[hexed mango]

[iron thistle]

Why are all the fnbs just different variations of conquest

[tepid agate]

What would you expect?

[iron thistle]

Literally anything considering the devs have portals tools available

[chilly jacinth]

because that's what the devs want

[iron thistle]

This one just makes bullets go faster and gives you 110 hp ?

very creative

[hexed mango]

there's been an average of 17.3k peak since the free weekend, during the free weekend there was an average of 32.5k peak
which is a loss of 47% from the free weekend during the weekdays following

[tepid agate]

Portal is a little stale. Mainly used for farming

[iron thistle]

I understand that but the fnbs are 100% dev controlled

[hexed mango]

which means if you say that the free week was only players who played for free, only 53% of them stayed

[hexed mango]

its platform controlled

the game opts in to steam's free weekend, xbox's free weekend and ps' free weekend
which is why they are all at different times

[tepid agate]

Yeah should pop back up later/tomorrow

[sharp marten]

Now this truly is isopod hours

[tepid agate]

Was this FNB trend created in 2042? Not sure I remember it in bfV

[hexed mango]

pretty sure it existed in V

[iron thistle]

Im talking about friday night battlefield specifcially lol id hope people would buy this game for 20-30 bucks after a free weekend after all the progress thats been made

[brisk imp]

Fully people joining new games

[tepid agate]

Maybe I should play more on Friday 😆

Before was always Thursdays for the missions

[hexed mango]

ah my mistake i read FNB as Free weekend somehow lol

[iron thistle]

all good

[brisk imp]

Please play games

[tepid agate]

I think people did buy. It definitely went up a little after the free weekend

[robust vapor]

9.35 am here now probs not much people online

a bit too early

[iron thistle]

Just want more content tbh 1 map per 3 months is hard for me

[white geyser]

I'll play BF 2042 tomorrow so I can continue farming to level up and unlock more stuff even portal won't do any of it

[iron thistle]

bf4 had 16 maps by this time in 2042s life lol

this game has 3

[tepid agate]

2042 shows currently - 24 hour peak

7k - 15k

But BFV currently - 24 hour peak is

4k - 32k

That European and US difference is massive lol

[hexed mango]

now obviously not all 100% of the free weekend peeps were people who only played for free, cause obviously there were people playing who owned the game
and its hard to count the numbers of people that werent for free, but if we use the #s before the free weekend, which is still crutched by the release of S3, its still a massive downturn

but before the free weekend, we had an average of ~16k peak, and now have about a 17k average peak during the weekdays after, which is technically a gain of 1k, or about 6%

[onyx mica]

o.o

[hexed mango]

ok im doing too much math for a friday

[tepid agate]

Go sleep

[hexed mango]

bro its almost 6pm

[tepid agate]

You'll wake up fully energised

So a 12 hour nap

[onyx mica]

i need coffee, i played until 3.30 am and this is 8.30 am now for me

[hexed mango]

so guys everyone be happy, we gained about 6% players from the free weekend!

aka 1k peeps

[tepid agate]

Just finished my black coffee

[iron thistle]

Game just needs to be given out on game pass if theirs any hope for an actual significant player base returning

[onyx mica]

yeaaaa im happy

[hexed mango]

we'll see how the weekend goes and then ill recalculate

[hexed mango]

it already is

xbox game pass and ea play, i dunno about ps tho

[iron thistle]

Oh gotcha i take it the numbers being sited are just from the steam chart then ?

[hexed mango]

indeed

since thats the only platform that reports unfortunately

[tepid agate]

I'm planning a gaming sessions with UK mates over Christmas period... I told them 2042 has a free weekend but they just ignored and said bfV and warzone 😯

[sharp marten]

Mom said it’s my turn to shoot enemy combatants with the airburst

[hexed mango]

i have heard and experienced that there are more xbox players in game now, so i would assume the actual increase of players is more like 20%

[sharp marten]

[hexed mango]

ok sorry

[tepid agate]

They said us 3 must only go in with lundge mines

[hexed mango]

mr little angry amn

[sharp marten]

Little angy man

[hexed mango]

short*

[tepid agate]

Person with least kills in a game gets punished 🍻 lol

[sharp marten]

Bitch

[hexed mango]

angy

yes

[fringe kestrel]

I want to enjoy this game. I just redownloaded ...haven't played since launch. Still feeel like there is sh*t for squad play. I need a squad i think

[sharp marten]

[iron thistle]

Lol joining up with friends in this game is still atrocious

[fringe kestrel]

yep

[tepid agate]

It should change in January they are bringing classes back

[fringe kestrel]

its horrible

[hexed mango]

fortunately there have been leaks of squad improvements, in the form of squad objectives to come in future updates
and the class update soon, but yeah its not great rn

[sharp marten]

I’ve never had problems with friends joining

[tepid agate]

I have no friends playing it oh wow

[iron thistle]

Joins a friends party while in game with same friend , boots you from the lobby to reload the server

Not being able to start your own squad and lock it is just ridiculous

[fringe kestrel]

the entire squad thing is just...blah. I didn't even realise that i could leave and join another squad and when i was able to figure it out there was no squad selection. Completely random

[iron thistle]

So many missing features from past bfs still

[sharp marten]

Let me paint you

[iron thistle]

LeGacY fEaTuREs

[fringe kestrel]

is there a BF game that still has an ok player base? I just can't do the COD BR thing anymore. The gameplay is too slow.

[spiral folio]

All of em?

[iron thistle]

BFV 1 & 4 still has server browsers rather than relying on the quick match so theirs always a game to be played there even bf3

[tepid agate]

Bfv is the most popular

[spiral folio]

Cod always struck me as the spastic twitch gamer one

[fringe kestrel]

serioulsy...i honestly dont know. Im on PC playing on controller so 4 is kinda bugged. how is 5 and 1 doing?

[spiral folio]

Pc on a controller

[fringe kestrel]

lol yeah i know

[iron thistle]

Folks are emulating controllers so they can get pc aim assist and its pretty much undetectable

10/10 feature

[spiral folio]

Isit

[fringe kestrel]

no aim assist on BF4 so it REALLY tough to play

[spiral folio]

Its like.
"Yea theres training wheels but those are cool now"

[iron thistle]

Idek how to hold a controller tbh

[spiral folio]

I think the romans would say
"Get good"

[brisk imp]

when fully people actif

On games

[fringe kestrel]

i was KB only for the longest time and was pretty damn good on BF3 & 4 but its been years since ive done KB&M

[iron thistle]

The kb players complaining about console aim assist are hilarious to me

Theyre just genuinely bad

[eager spire]

aim assist in what game, specifically?

[iron thistle]

The game were in the chat for

[hexed mango]

[eager spire]

Eh. Aim assist is aim assist. Also doesn't help that controller players just have less recoil by default.

[unkempt hawk]

is the ak74u good?

[hexed mango]

its ight

there are better options tho

[unkempt hawk]

i see, what smg should i use then?

[hexed mango]

PP or PBX

[unkempt hawk]

pp bizon felt very nice

[iron thistle]

Lol 2 months after release i was forced to turn on cross play due to not finding pc lobbies in a reasonable amount of time and i dont mean this as tho im bragging but i genuinely felt as tho i turned the game on easy

[fringe kestrel]

well i'll be honest 2042 has gotten alot better. Still a shadow of the past BF games. Im just glad there is at least one OK option beyond COD. Their BR is so slow it's boring as hell.

[eager spire]

yeah, that is the case, 2042 is not a great BF game, but it has gotten a lot better, and is currently better than the contemporary CoD game, which is designed to be as slow and not fun as possible.

[iron thistle]

Lets see how long it takes the new cod to drop 3 maps

Guarantee less than a year 🤣

[hexed mango]

carpo bf vietnam

[fringe kestrel]

They release a new rebirth style map and i'm all in. I loved rebirth. Hate to admit it but after 2042 release, rebirth is all i played

[eager spire]

the only maps that've come out so far are fuckin throwbacks tho

Like you really think it took 'em that long to make fucking Shipment again?

[sharp marten]

INVEST IN BOINCOIN

[iron thistle]

Could say the same thing about 2042 including portal maps in its official map count

[eager spire]

Fair enough. Doesn't change the fact that MWII is just not a good CoD game, it's CoD trying to be a tactical shooter, and throwing out every bit of MW19 that made that game have potential.

[iron thistle]

I enjoy the new warzone but thats about it. I think its undeniable tho that people in general prefer it over 2042 lol

just look at what sony said about the bf franchise not being able to compete with cod in reference to the microsoft activision purchase

[fringe kestrel]

agreed...glaring issues tho. That looting system man. Who the hell thought that was a good idea???

[eager spire]

I feel like the only people that prefer MWII to 2042 are the people that think 2042 having sliding was a bad idea.

[iron thistle]

Or sony the company financially lol

[eager spire]

???

[iron thistle]

Im saying sony was freaking out because battlefield wasnt a clear competitor to cod after microsoft tried to purchase activision

[eager spire]

Ah. I don't care about the opinions of a massive corporation here, i'm just saying that MWII is an ass game.

[hexed mango]

i kinda like mw2 but im biased in the fact that ive really never played mw games before

[iron thistle]

Throwback to the bf3 bf4 days where sale numbers and internet debate actually compared the 2 (cod and bf)tho

glory days of the bf franchise

[fringe kestrel]

At this point i would LOVE to see a FPS socom return lo. That game was so much fun back in the day. socom 1 & 2 were god damned amazing

[hexed mango]

Socom? United States Special Operations Command?

[fringe kestrel]

Socom..one of the very 1st online team based shooters. Playstation exclusive game

it was awesome

[hexed mango]

nah i think you mean United States Special Operations Command 100%

[fringe kestrel]

Whatever it stood for... the actual game was a blast

[eager spire]

never played it, was not a big Playstation user, was more into the OG Xbox and Gamecube at the time.

[hexed mango]

i can only remember like one game from my ps2, simpsons hit and run

[eager spire]

I did have some games on the PS2. Just not SOCOM.

[fiery solar]

Dice kan we give Zain armor when you get a kill at 100hp

[eager spire]

Kingdom Hearts, BLACK, uhh..that's about it

[fringe kestrel]

I look back at the old videos of it and it look horrible but for it's time it was so good. Again, it was one of the 1st online, squad based games. On the PS1 you had to buy this special thing to attach to the console so you had internet connectivity. lol too much fun. They ran all the way through socom 5 i think. The devs changed up the gameplay and ruined it tho

[hexed mango]

please no

[arctic grove]

I feel like it could be

[hexed mango]

i feel like theyre different games for different playstyles

[arctic grove]

Yes but every new 2042 map since June has actually been a new map. Portal hasn’t been updated with new maps since the launch selection

[fiery solar]

I love how over saturated the game looks when you heal from a kill as Zain I wish that was how it always looked on my monitor

[eager spire]

to be frank, I feel like 2042 currently does what MW19 did, and allows for faster paced infantry gameplay way better than MWII does.

[topaz field]

omg so much camperssss

[hexed mango]

yeah im annoyed with how many people camp with tanks and irish rn

[topaz field]

make 64 player made great again!

[hexed mango]

wowowo

careful there

[topaz field]

128p is too much

[hexed mango]

i see it in bt, which is 64

[fiery solar]

Wah wah wah do you see how cool 128 is thouh

[hexed mango]

i dont think it has to do with player count

[fiery solar]

I’ve never seen a camper in 128 conquest

How do you hide from 64 other players heading towards you

[sharp marten]

Hey buddy I saw you were crying everything ok?

[fiery solar]

No

[sharp marten]

What’s wrong champion

[fiery solar]

The game doesn’t look over saturated enough and Zain doesn’t get armor when you get a kill at 100hp

[sharp marten]

I’m about to get physically violent

[arctic grove]

I suppose Zain getting armor at a 100hp kill makes it more rewarding but err

[fiery solar]

At least 10 shield

Irish starts out with 10

[limpid pond]

Yeah I had to take a break from bf 2042

[arctic grove]

Well since I just got MW2 last night I’m gonna be MW2 gaming

[limpid pond]

I can't play mw2. Skill based hit reg isn't for me

[sharp marten]

💀

[limpid pond]

I shouldn't be punished for shitting on Mr Timmy with two thumbs not able to jump shot while moving

[arctic grove]

Yeah I agree

I don’t like how there is a system in place to determine for me whether or not I need a win or a lose

[limpid pond]

Not to mention I'm literally running at 24ms and yet on other people's screens I'm lagging like wth

[sharp marten]

Na you speaking fax

[arctic grove]

Fuckin hell you never feel like you get better at the game if the SBMM always puts you up against someone 3x your skill level

[limpid pond]

Yeah it's pretty dumb. Sbmm in general is trash but then adding skill based hit reg is beyond stupid

[arctic grove]

I almost feel bad for having games where I steamrolled the enemy team simply cause I know next game I’m gonna get fucked and it’s back to square 1

[limpid pond]

No reason it takes me 6 bullets to kill a 0.8kd player while he can 4 shot me

[sharp marten]

I think if a petition from the players gets enough attention and it’s in favor of removing SBMM then it should be removed

[limpid pond]

Nahit won't happen.

[arctic grove]

Well since mw2 is on the table for 2 yrs I sure as hell hope they’ll do something

Especially about footsteps

[limpid pond]

Footsteps is an audio based thing. I've seen multiple videos talking about skill based audio but idk about that

[next onyx]

It makes them money so they won't be removing it.

[limpid pond]

Halo is poopin though

Popin*

[eager spire]

They started focusing on that as soon as they stopped being able to reliably market supply drops.

[limpid pond]

They released a huge update that has completely changed the content to the game and 80% of the community is having fun rn

I'm downloading halo right now to give it a go

[eager spire]

gotta appeal to the lowest common denominator. The people most willing to spend money on a game that caters to them.

[arctic grove]

I’ve never been a halo person personally especially since I grew up on PlayStation

[eager spire]

Halo added aim assist to KBM. That is unacceptable.

[next onyx]

2042 might not be perfect but at least it's fun.

[limpid pond]

Eh kbm aim assist just fixes the aim assist "skill gap"

[eager spire]

it's unacceptable.

[limpid pond]

Yeah I guess. It's fun when people on your team are good. Half my matches have been me solo carrying with 80 kills and 16 caps yet we still lose

I might try playing airsoft

Gives me something to do besides video games and work

[eager spire]

They only did it because most people on controller are about on the same level as the top 100 players on KBM. And they can't touch aim assist on controller or controller players will have a fucking hissy fit.

So they just add aim assist to KBM, making it so KBM is no longer a pure representation of aiming ability.

[limpid pond]

Tbh I doubt it'll be that bad. If you're gifted in gaming you'll be good no matter what

[eager spire]

yeah but even people who were gifted in gaming were not getting as high in accuracy as the top 100 controller players in Infinite. Most controller players were able to do what the top 100 KBM players could do in terms of accuracy, and that's cause the game is aiming for them.

Instead of making it so the game doesn't fucking play itself as much for controller players, they just made the game play itself for KBM players.

[upbeat sand]

The guy who made the pp29 reload made the 1942 snipers in portal

[eager spire]

Meaning that any accuracy gain from this is artificial. It's not representative of actual aiming ability at all.

It's a change made to pad the statistics rather than a change made to properly balance the game.

[topaz field]

FACTSSSSSSSS

[upbeat sand]

||-Something happened in 3.1 for some reason-||

[arctic grove]

January boutta pop off

[kindred flint]

im doing to be sad when 3.2 hits

[arctic grove]

I just want less rockets thrown at me

[kindred flint]

ill only have...3 specialists to play

[arctic grove]

[ember mist]

Do you have to launch bf2042 twice to get past the loading satellite cutscene

[arctic grove]

Gib engies c5
Make nimble assault class trait

[upbeat sand]

Way after t1 ing everything in the entire game, getting every tag, background and badge

[arctic grove]

As skipper said t1 isn’t the end

It’s only the beginning

[kindred flint]

yesterday i got that...40 kills in a conquest and 10 caps in a match? reward was like huh...how have i not gotten this yet

[arctic grove]

Should i upgrade to definitive edition of Bf5

[sturdy tundra]

Any1 down for rush or breakthrough feel free to join

[arctic grove]

I dont wanna keep grinding for the skins and weapons

And its only 15 bucks

[eager spire]

might as well if it's only $15

[broken wolf]

none of my team is having rubber banding issues, what could cause this? my ping is normal at 52

[eager spire]

hilarious

[next onyx]

Now my discord updates.

That's a good purple.

[upbeat sand]

How would you feel if you 100% the game so you have NOTHING to do

[arctic grove]

I be damned

[eager spire]

oh hey my name's purple.

[arctic grove]

That regular color

[next onyx]

I'm not sure.

[upbeat sand]

Feel empty and cry

Make new account restart

[kindred flint]

you...play the game like devs intended?

[fringe kestrel]

thats a mystery...how was it intended?

becauyse it sure wasnt set up to be objective based

[kindred flint]

objective whats that? i meant zipping around the map on your wingsuit or zipline character while stomping all your bot opponents

[upbeat sand]

Use a support as a support

No sniper

[kindred flint]

pfft im only going to be playing support in 3.2 to support my own ammo needs

[upbeat sand]

*just use your pistol

[brisk imp]

Hello

[crimson basin]

The airburst is actually so good. I got a triple with just one mag.

[arctic grove]

the HE bombs are so good I got a 9 kill with a single fire 🗿

[next onyx]

God damn I love shelling helis.

[kindred flint]

god damn fucking trash teammates that can cap or hold

i play like shit and go 44-10....3 caps is #1 on the team

[arctic grove]

anyone down for air superiority:?

[upbeat sand]

ea removed gold edition from steam

[shell ermine]

First time I've ever seen anyone with the regular role lmao

[upbeat sand]

Barely anyone has regular

Cause it's extremely hard to get

[kindred flint]

sometimes you lose it after a couple years

[thick shadow]

There's not a single day in battlefield of me knowing what is going on during a game.

Just a lot of shit happening simultaneously lmao

[eager spire]

https://fxtwitter.com/MeatloafFPS/status/1601426916950839297 wut

why is that a thing

[copper fulcrum]

I doubt many people will actually use this though

[sharp marten]

Bro discord name be different

[eager spire]

well still, it's a weird thing that probably shouldn't happen

[sharp marten]

It’s not possible

“Why not, you stupid bastard”

[copper fulcrum]

I could press an arrow key to get the game to help me aim... or I can just aim

[eager spire]

yeah, i know. but still.

this does not seem like something that's supposed to be happening, so it should probably get looked at by somebody.

[arctic grove]

the regular drip is real

[radiant prism]

Man I wish I still had regular

:/

[arctic grove]

welp my Air Superiority server got 16 players 😎 👊

[radiant prism]

Anyways…that aim assist thing is just something to note but nothing that will ever be helpful.

[arctic grove]

Aim Assist on mouse just kinda ruins it 🗿

Speaking from my experience back when PC fortnite had legitmate AA on mouse

[radiant prism]

“Why yes, let me take my hands off my far more precise input mechanism to use the arrow keys so that it lightly suggests I aim at enemies”

Like with what hand is someone ever gonna have reason to use that to their advantage

[eager spire]

Halo Infinite added aim assist to mouse

[arctic grove]

Halo Infinite dead as hell

[radiant prism]

In the time it would take to swap to the arrow keys, you could’ve just flicked with the mouse or hell you could’ve just used a controller if you really wanted AA that bad

[vocal adder]

That wasn't meant to happen even though it made it feel good

[eager spire]

probably cause 343 saw this chart and was like "ah damn that implies there's an issue with aim assist being too strong. we can't have that. then it would be really hard to justify not changing how aim assist works."

[arctic grove]

I had 77% accuracy a while back 💀

61% currently 💀

[eager spire]

not that they would ever to do that anyway because if they even thought about making controller aim assist in Halo Infinite less strong, then literally every controller player would explode.

[arctic grove]

why would any PC player waste the precious storage space on Halo infinite.

[radiant prism]

It’s almost like forced crossplay between consoles and controllers is a terrible idea in PvP FPS games

[eager spire]

BUT THE PLAYER NUMBERS

[vocal adder]

The game is making a comeback just like 2042 is that's why

[arctic grove]

does it have a religious community like bf aswell? 🤔

I mean I guess it is halo afterall

[eager spire]

yeah it is halo

[radiant prism]

I’d imagine yeah, it’s only one of the most iconic FPS franchises of all time

[eager spire]

of course it does

and it also has the forge mode

which is admittedly very good

people made a waffle house in it

[vocal adder]

has forge mode and now it has custom game browser so you can play peoples stuff with other people

[arctic grove]

infinite got fucked so hard it didn't even have Forge at launch

btw why do I have 268374015 ping on every BF4 server?

[vocal adder]

so did 2042 both had there problems and now both making a comeback

[eager spire]

uh

[arctic grove]

do you are have stupid, It should've been like that since the beginning, its not a fucking Indie company bruh.

small aah team of indie devs 🥴

[eager spire]

i donno, i feel like Origin shutting down might have fucked with Battlelog.

to be fair, Infinite Forge is really ambitious.

[arctic grove]

something comparable can be Creative mode from fortnite ifykwim

[vocal adder]

Have you seen people's forge creations in infinite its ridiculous

[eager spire]

yes

i've seen some of them.

[arctic grove]

You will enjoy your Y1 of fixes and you will enjoy it!

[eager spire]

mostly i've seen the waffle house

but

the waffle house was very good

[arctic grove]

starting with shit and progressing to something acceptable is a great business model!

Yehh

I love gaming industry practices

[royal trail]

hello fellow nopats, which specielist is the best for someone trying to get better at getting kills. mckay?

[arctic grove]

atleast minecraft mods don't ever betray you 💀 ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[arctic grove]

Flack imo for new players 🗿

[vocal adder]

Dozer 😩

[arctic grove]

Minecraft arguably has some pretty mid support behind it too, according to what I’ve heard anyways

Kill one, Heal and run

Mojang after adding a new animal and 2 types of wood

[arctic grove]

wrap it up for a year

I can’t believe that we finally got mods for console Minecraft and they fuckin monetized them

[royal trail]

i have like 300 masteries with falck, but she makes me go on the defencive and only reviving, not killing

[arctic grove]

I mean honestly can you blame them 🗿 their game is appealing because it's simplistic they can't add a AK-47 to a farming simulator.

[arctic grove]

its time for MACKAY

ABOVE US

[royal trail]

cool

thanks

[arctic grove]

Fair point, btw if you have PC Minecraft I urge you to get Vic’s modern warfare, shits goot

[arctic grove]

Don't cite the deep magic to me witch, I was there when it was written.

You got a legit copy of mc?

Yeh

Bedwars?

Java edition

WHAT

YOU STOOPID

I don’t really play bedwars or anything like that, I just goof around with mods then log off

I see I see

[royal trail]

alpha buyers of minecraft got access to windows edition aswell. as majong promised us every version of minecraft for free. makes me think we should get the spinoffs aswell. but whatever

[arctic grove]

Spinoffs? Legends and dungeons?

• Bipods can be toggled?

Yes

Bipods are toggled in 2042

:o

is the slow freelook sens in cockpits going to be fixed 🗿 will I ever control my jet in Rear view.

[royal trail]

ye if thats what they're called

[arctic grove]

They are completely different games with almost nothing similar to minecraft other than Cubes or some monsters

Dungeons is a Diablo like game
Legends is gonna be a RPG

[edgy oriole]

pink

[arctic grove]

They want us to do multikills again?

[edgy oriole]

PINK

[arctic grove]

Time to pull out the stealth heli

Horun/Hannibal or just C5 warrior onto tanks

Once I killed like 5 people with a c5 jeep

[royal trail]

according to them if it got minecraft in it , we should get it. lol

[wide shore]

Eeeevvviiiiilllll

Woah what happened to the roles

[arctic grove]

100kills with 0 deaths on the stealth heli 🧍‍♂️

[wide shore]

[arctic grove]

if a wildcat is baby sitting you, there is literally nothing that can kill you 🗿

(taken you time your flares and stealth mode correctly)

[copper fulcrum]

Liz, crackhead with an M5 and perfect accuracy

Sniper on Adderall

a squad with rail guns

[neat loom]

+2 bf 2042 squad 5

[royal trail]

i got ADHD and want adderall but docs say aderall is forbidden here as its really close to pure amphetamine , but i want it for better gameperfomance. rip

😦

[brisk imp]

Good night everyone sleep

[arctic grove]

Liz and crackhead m5 users just don't stay alive when you don't have to worry about threats from above

the only real threat is a EMVK90-TOR

Cause you never see them until they kill you cause they sit at spawn slowly doing Trigonometry to calculate where the fuck you are going to be in 5 sexonds

[copper fulcrum]

When a doctor says no, that means no

[royal trail]

if i had lived in usa tho it would be a go

[copper fulcrum]

Yeah

I didn't even think Adderall was forbidden in some areas

[royal trail]

can i claim that im a nopat and have no restrictions

i mean diplomats can get away with alot in other countries claiming its allowed in theirs

[copper fulcrum]

I mean, if a member of the WNBA gets arrested in Russia for owning a funny plant...

[safe inlet]

Me using Geometry to calculate exactly where to aim ahead of the helicopter to compensate for the charge time on my railtank

[fiery dawn]

New colors?

I like

[safe inlet]

Indeed

Very nice colors

[arctic grove]

I have T2 TOR and I can confirm that's all facts

[safe inlet]

See this guy gets it :joedance:

[royal trail]

im gonna make the nopat a religious group large enough for the religious freedom laws to include us

[safe inlet]

Aw nuts

My Nitro ran out

🥲

[arctic grove]

buy more?

[safe inlet]

Does this religion include the worship of railguns

[royal trail]

yes

[arctic grove]

is there space for Stealth heli and jet worshippers?

[safe inlet]

I’m all in

[royal trail]

if ure ever locked up for insanety just claim everything is in some religious spiritual beliefes

they cant question religions

[quiet shell]

Why does the M5 rifle chambered in 6.5 use a 5.56 magazine and then use it's actual magazine as a high power varient

[arctic grove]

I'll just start singing the minecraft theme song in a different voice and pretend it's our religious prayer

[topaz field]

Okay new issue I don't like bolte on top of the spearhead rooftop spamming the rockets that automatically lock onto Heli

That shit is super annoying

[arctic grove]

They deal like no damage though

[topaz field]

They do...

[copper fulcrum]

I saw someone park a Wildcat up there and the Mortar Pod was dealing a lot of damage to people below

[arctic grove]

Mortar pod does in fact deal a lot of damage.

[topaz field]

They should remove the ability to spawn vehicle on top of buildings just real annoying sometimes I like it sometimes I don't

[topaz field]

Yeah they sure do

[arctic grove]

Wildcats on top of the building on orbital

Actual aviation nightmare

[shell ermine]

There needs to be a stairwell or elevator to get on top of the borg cubes

[kindred flint]

roofs that are locked off to only helis are dumb

yes yes you can mackay up there using the 2nd vent but still

[next onyx]

Yeah ok 880 with slugs on this FnB mode is fun.

[idle lion]

if you lived in the usa youd also be in 200k medical debt

[magic bloom]

Same reason you can stick a 9MM/45 mag in it

Even though you’d have to do a lot more than that for it to work irl

[inner roost]

You will need to unlock the anti material high power to make a reasonable dent in vehicles

[eager spire]

because DICE needed to have an M4 to start people off with, and the M5 seemed suitably futuristic enough.

[quiet shell]

Why didn't they just give us... a modernized... M4?

[eager spire]

because the M5 just came out and it seemed suitably futuristic please keep up

[quiet shell]

But... If they're going to give us an M5 chambered in 5.56 they could've just given us this and call it a day. It's essentially the same thing
https://large.shootingsportsmedia.com/140543.jpg

[eager spire]

yeah but it wouldn't look as cool.

[digital turret]

M5a3 is not m4, this is Sig Sauer MCX. It's another platform

[eager spire]

it's designated the M5

well it's designated the XM5 but let's not split hairs here

[magic bloom]

I mean I would imagine the XM5 would be in service at least in some part during 2042

[woven acorn]

My aim is appalling

The amount of times I've shot enemies from behind and they've turned around and killed me

[magic bloom]

It be like that sometimes

[woven acorn]

Happens way too much for me

[magic bloom]

That’s why I use the AK24

It’s got no recoil

[woven acorn]

Using the scar atm

[eager spire]

big oof. work on that.

[woven acorn]

I've been playing games for over 15 years lol

[eager spire]

still

doesn't mean you can't work on that

[woven acorn]

If anything my aim used to be better

I think I've got carpal tunnel syndrome which doesn't help

[eager spire]

ah

yeah that probably wouldn't help

[magic bloom]

My aim is atrocious on my pc

Literally makes me wanna jump off a bridge

[woven acorn]

Yeah I've moved to pc recently, used to be a joystick aimer

[magic bloom]

I’m still primarily console

[woven acorn]

I plug my controller in sometimes but I can't decide which makes my aim better

[eager spire]

I kinda wanna focus on doing aim training and shit like that but currently, i'm running on a cheap wireless mouse cause my current mouse is broken. I don't think it would do me any good to do that right now.

[magic bloom]

I don’t like aim training

[woven acorn]

Probably not

I don't really mind, if anything I wish more people were a bit relaxed with the game. I see a lot of people play it like it's pro league

[magic bloom]

I have a 50 round drum accuracy by sheer volume of fire

[woven acorn]

[magic bloom]

Maybe that’s why I played support in bf4

[woven acorn]

My scar has 20 rounds and I usually get them before it hits 3 left

[next onyx]

Fuck it.

[magic bloom]

Yeah fuck it.

[next onyx]

I'm not using the 880 anymore.

It is beyond awful.

[magic bloom]

You see my pain

[next onyx]

It is the worst gun in the game.

I don't know why they thought it was in a good spot.

[woven acorn]

I'm currently trying to unlock the vault weapons

[next onyx]

PC is naturally sweatier.

I should get something to eat.

[magic bloom]

You should

[next onyx]

But there aren't any cold meals.

Eeeee.

I know what to do.

[magic bloom]

Why would you want cold meals

[woven acorn]

Eat your hand

[next onyx]

Cold meals as in meals I don't need to cook.

It's 34C today and it's awful.

[magic bloom]

What’s that in freedom units.

[woven acorn]

It's -2°c here, wanna swap?

[woven acorn]

Around 70 probably

[magic bloom]

That’s not even cold

[woven acorn]

90f

[magic bloom]

That’s T-shirt and light sweat pants weather

90 isn’t bad either

That’s a typical summer day here

[woven acorn]

It's 28f where I am

[eager spire]

Would love to have been in the room when they were playtesting that thing.

[magic bloom]

Yes T Shirt weather

[woven acorn]

If water is frozen it's not tshirt lmao

[magic bloom]

I mean… I went outside when it was 15f here in shorts, sandals and a t shirt

Idk what that is in non freedom

[woven acorn]

Fahrenheit is such a weird way to measure temperature like do you get taught at school that water freezes at 32 degrees

[magic bloom]

Yes

[eager spire]

Yes

[woven acorn]

Huh

0 just makes more sense to me

[magic bloom]

Water freezes at 32 degrees

[woven acorn]

If it's minus it's freezing if it's positive it's not

[magic bloom]

Idk

[woven acorn]

Fahrenheit is good for a wider range of temperatures but it's never needed for domestic uses

We'll convert you one day

[arctic grove]

-4 here right now

[magic bloom]

You mean when it can range from 0f to 110f in the same state depending on the season

[arctic grove]

sheesh

tis a cold one lads

[woven acorn]

Celcius has that range too I believe

[magic bloom]

It’s decently warm tonight it’s like 40F

[magic bloom]

I’ve got no idea

[formal igloo]

No you won’t. At least not in any of our lifetimes

[magic bloom]

Never

I’ll come up with my own temperature system before I use Celsius

[formal igloo]

10 degrees of Celsius is like an entire different season

[magic bloom]

For real

[woven acorn]

And?

[woven acorn]

I have already prepared the temperature battle ships

[magic bloom]

What in the Sam hell is a temperature battleship

You gonna raise the HMS Dreadnought and shoot thermometers at us

[woven acorn]

It's a ship equipped to distribute Celsius to everyone

[magic bloom]

And we have a 6th Gen plane cope /j

[formal igloo]

Bruh for every battleship Europe has America has 8

[woven acorn]

I really wish battlefield had the vehicle spawn system at base where vehicles were just there ready to take

[formal igloo]

Yeah

[woven acorn]

It was more immersive

[magic bloom]

One of ours leveled an island cause she got hit with a tiny mortar

[woven acorn]

Sounds reasonable

[magic bloom]

It really is just simply don’t fuck with the USS Wisconsin

[formal igloo]

I wish battlefield had deployable quads and bikes, like Planetside 2

[woven acorn]

Haven't played that game in a while

Great game though

[magic bloom]

What is planetside 2

[woven acorn]

You can't lone wolf it as much compared to other games, it's a great team game

[magic bloom]

I wish the Rangers could like jump on the back of tanks and jeeps so the little dude don’t get left behind

[formal igloo]

Shit graphics, 100v100v100

[magic bloom]

Or even jump onto a heli

[formal igloo]

Free to play

Great gameplay

Mostly

[woven acorn]

Pc free to play game that's like battlefield but on a small country level. The continent is split up into zones depending on which of the 3 armies is holding each zone. Think conquest but with hundreds of players

[keen quiver]

worst optimize game

[magic bloom]

Unfortunate since I only play role play and sim games on my pc

[formal igloo]

High learning curve and platoon level coordination too

[woven acorn]

It's a bit janky, PS3 looking graphics, but it's still supported and doesn't punish you if you don't want to pay for mtx

[magic bloom]

I’m about to sell my soul to get the F-16 in warthunder

[woven acorn]

I really want to get a HOTAS setup for flight simulator

[keen quiver]

Couple of new games are coming you can check them

Arc Raider
Battlebit remastered
Warhaven
The Finals

[magic bloom]

I Play on a fucking juiced out laptop so no HOTAS for me

[woven acorn]

Oof

Upgrade that setup my guy

[keen quiver]

it's required subscription as well?

[magic bloom]

Nah my laptop is a beast she’s played FiveM with thousands of mods installed

[woven acorn]

No

[woven acorn]

gg

[magic bloom]

Plus I don’t have the space for a desk top

[formal igloo]

Reject war Thunder play ace combat

[magic bloom]

No.

[keen quiver]

I checked on the internet, it says $15 for a month.

[formal igloo]

Addicted?

[woven acorn]

Reject all those games and go back bad company 2 Vietnam

[magic bloom]

No I’ve just spent to much money

Please help

[woven acorn]

Can probably buy a season pass but it's a free to play game

[magic bloom]

I NEEDED the Prinz Eugen ok I couldn’t help myself

[woven acorn]

There is a premium subscription thing but you don't have to get it

[magic bloom]

Holy shit I just saw a spitfire shoot down a F-35E in 2042

[woven acorn]

I was gonna spend money on battlefield coins for the first time but I looked at some of the stuff and it's like £7 for one legendary outfit. Just 1. If I buy 4 outfits I've paid the same amount that I got the entire game for...

[magic bloom]

Bro had the tier 1 F-35 skin too so he had to at least be somewhat competent

[magic bloom]

Don’t be like me and buy the ultimate edition upgrade after you already bought the game

[woven acorn]

Does the ultimate edition give you everything?

[magic bloom]

I don’t regret doing it though since I got the game on sale for practically nothing

[magic bloom]

I think the year 1 pass and a few skins for specialists

Don’t think I’ll have to buy another battle pass for the game though

[woven acorn]

Might look into it

[magic bloom]

It’s like 80 bucks American for the upgrade

[woven acorn]

I just want to unlock some skins for falk

[formal igloo]

I wish hourglass was always sandstorm-ed

[magic bloom]

I don’t think she has any for it

[keen quiver]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3BKASgkxK1g&ab_channel=ARCRaiders

[formal igloo]

One

[magic bloom]

What kind of meth are you smoking

[keen quiver]

ex developers

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Y14KNDmjow&ab_channel=MathChief-TheBestofGaming!

[formal igloo]

Hourglass sandstorm looks cool. I wish it was mostly always on

[magic bloom]

The hour glass rework is fixing to be epic tbh

[formal igloo]

I wish they would make a battlefield-aesthetic game and not go the fantasy crack addict look

[magic bloom]

Battlefield 2142 has entered the chat

[formal igloo]

Is 2142 crack addict?

[eager spire]

genuinely i wish a multiplayer FPS game would come out with whatever aesthetic people think 2042 has

[formal igloo]

You mean 2042

[eager spire]

because it sounds a lot more interesting than what 2042's aesthetic actually is.

[formal igloo]

Yeh

[magic bloom]

I Just Love semi futuristic games

[upbeat sand]

https://youtu.be/xuftkDxjGT4

actual gameplay

[formal igloo]

Watching

Free to play. Bruh

[magic bloom]

Free to play games are getting old

[formal igloo]

Third person

I hate modern free to play games

[magic bloom]

I like third person games (I came from the division games cause say what you want but they do it right)

[woven acorn]

That's one of my biggest problems with the game. The intro you see when you first boot it up helps give some kind of identity to the game and then it's kind of just gone when you actually launch into matches

[formal igloo]

Yeah it’s fine but i like to see the screams of my enemies up close

[formal igloo]

Should’ve had campaign

[woven acorn]

It had so much promise

[formal igloo]

Yeh

[magic bloom]

I mean Imo it’s better than whatever cod is doing rn

[woven acorn]

The world collapsing because of ecological downfall is a fantastic backdrop... But they've squandered it

[formal igloo]

Like no pats and locations and near future. Concept art was soo cool

[magic bloom]

I mean it is probably gonna happen to us if we don’t fix our shit

[royal swan]

Anything new today

[formal igloo]

It’s probably going to happen, just it’s intensity depends on current actions

[magic bloom]

I mean hell we get tornados in December where I live now that’s never been a thing til just a few years ago

[arctic grove]

Casper and the BVSM is like glaz from siege, that is all

[royal swan]

Huh

[formal igloo]

But we’ll get to see near peer conflict

[royal swan]

Didn't know Casper was anything special with combat

[arctic grove]

I love him

[woven acorn]

Like what have we got to suggest the world is in turmoil apart from Extreme weather events? The map with the wall down the middle is good. Hourglass is another good concept. But 2/3 ship maps? The latest map is great but doesn't hint at ecological collapse

[arctic grove]

The drone is such a powerful thing if you use it for isolated targets n stuff

[royal swan]

He's a eh specialist compared to the combat aggressive specialists

[formal igloo]

Zain op

[magic bloom]

Casper is my beloved tier 1 was a pain but I got through it

[royal swan]

Zain is a A tier

[magic bloom]

A good Irish hard counters

[formal igloo]

S tier

[royal swan]

Irish and McKay are S tier specialist

[arctic grove]

I prefer the drone because of the fun utility and isolating giving Intel to your entire team

[woven acorn]

What is this drone thing I keep hearing about?

[magic bloom]

Mastery 100 with Irish baby sheesh

[magic bloom]

Casper the bush wookiee it’s his ability

[next onyx]

I've put Irish as A+ Personally.

[formal igloo]

Gillie suit guy drone

[arctic grove]

The Flying Bushman

[royal swan]

As long as he counters most specialists and can hold down sectors more than anyone else, he's a S tier

[magic bloom]

He can’t fly anymore that’s upsetting

[woven acorn]

Oh thought it was some weapon found on the map. Yeah the drone has been used like that since launch. It's good. Now there's 3d spot maybe it's not as effective but

[next onyx]

Casper is either a B- or a C+.

[arctic grove]

I don't even rank operators lol

[next onyx]

Boris an easy C-.

[formal igloo]

Irish A+ for the generic soldier aesthetic

[arctic grove]

I just go for fun

[formal igloo]

Who F tier

[magic bloom]

I mean Casper can be absolutely amazing if you commit to the drone and spot the whole game

[formal igloo]

I would say brois f

[woven acorn]

Paik

[next onyx]

F tiered or Untiered?

Boris is easily Untiered.

[arctic grove]

I love playing Boris too:(

He's hella fun ngl

[magic bloom]

Crawford is underrated asf if you have good game sense

Can Just mow down entire pushes of people if your smart about it

[royal swan]

Crawford is B

[woven acorn]

I used Crawford for the first time yesterday on kaleidescope. Excellent for suppressing the centre objective

[formal igloo]

Crawford has best voice lines

[royal swan]

You need a Irish for him to be a A

[magic bloom]

Once he becomes an engiee and Irish becomes support I think he’ll go up

[magic bloom]

“Stock up and fucking fight” best one tbh

[next onyx]

Personally.

[woven acorn]

What country is he

[next onyx]

While I think Zain is extremely good.

[magic bloom]

UK since he was MI6

[formal igloo]

England

[next onyx]

He does miss out on mobility.

Easy A+ for him.

Mackay is S ranked purely because of his passive and gadget combo.

[royal swan]

Eh Zain is A, if Irish didn't counter Zain he would be higher

[woven acorn]

I thought so but he said something that I couldn't understand, sounded like actually sim language

[magic bloom]

I think people use him wrong which is why he gets a bad wrap

[next onyx]

Zain would be S without Irish.

Hell, Maybe an S+.

[formal igloo]

Why irsh op?

[magic bloom]

He almost has to be Hyper aggressive while not being hyper aggressive at the same time

[magic bloom]

APS system, comes with armor plates

[next onyx]

Direct can hard counter Zain.

[formal igloo]

Ah

[next onyx]

Thank you competitive pokemon for making me view things the way they are right now.

[magic bloom]

His APS can completely shut down a 40mm transport vehicle and a nightbird with rocket pods

[royal swan]

I'm fine with Irish counting zain

[formal igloo]

I still want to play as the generic AI soldier skins

[magic bloom]

If Irish didn’t counter zain he’d blatantly be op

[jovial zenith]

I been searching everywhere and even on ea support forums cant give a straight forward answer to the problem I have, I bought ea play on steam, downloaded ea app with my steam account linked and i still get this "To continue linking your EA Account, head back and start over." every single time i try to launch bf2042

[formal igloo]

They look sick

[magic bloom]

They kinda have some but you gotta buy them

[woven acorn]

I preferred it when it was "what gear can counter this thing" now we have to bring specialists into it

[royal swan]

Irish is a god tier teamwork player

[formal igloo]

Yeh

[magic bloom]

It’s still technically their gear that allows them to counter

[woven acorn]

Yeah I know, just not a fan of it being "hero" orientated

[royal swan]

And will best Falck when he gets to revive people, hell he would be a strict S tier after that

[magic bloom]

Fuckin A

[royal swan]

No

[formal igloo]

Irish cool look for people like me who don’t want to buy skins for a paid game

[magic bloom]

I was agreeing with you

[royal swan]

Ah

[woven acorn]

I Play Falk mostly. Always been the healer

[royal swan]

Also Irish + tanks oh god. You can't be touched by anything but another tank

[magic bloom]

I Wonder If during year two well get more maps per season since they won’t be releasing a new specialist

[formal igloo]

I wish they were nameless. Only differentiating factor is race and gender and look

[woven acorn]

You'd think

[royal swan]

Irish counters lis rockets so tank campers would love him

[woven acorn]

Just put them back to ordinary soldiers ffs

[magic bloom]

I still think BF4 American support had the best character design

[woven acorn]

How?

[magic bloom]

His APS system

[royal swan]

Put two trophy system at each end of a tank

And boom, a untouchable tank

[woven acorn]

You just send the rockets in from above

[formal igloo]

Like black guy at 1 o clock so he has shields and white girl at there so she has rockets. And they all have the same uniforms

[magic bloom]

Depending on the angle it will still shoot them down

[next onyx]

Irish becoming a medic will make him even better but not S ranked.

[royal swan]

I don't agree way

[woven acorn]

Wait what's his aps system

[magic bloom]

The Way back machine

[magic bloom]

His shoot down sentinel

[formal igloo]

I want them all to have common uniforms really. Like an actual army

[woven acorn]

Sorry what? When did he get this lmao

[magic bloom]

I forget people aren’t a nerd like me when it comes to stuff like that

[next onyx]

Since the start Atag.

[royal swan]

S tiers aren't for combat only Way

[formal igloo]

Since beginning

[woven acorn]

What the heck lmfao

[next onyx]

I know that logic as well Observer.

[magic bloom]

The funny backpack thing that make grenade go boom before grenade time make it go kaboom

[woven acorn]

I've had the game since launch and never heard anything about it

[next onyx]

I'm counting combat and use.

[woven acorn]

Can't believe I've never heard about that

[magic bloom]

It’s his secondary ability

[woven acorn]

Has it ever been showcased in a trailer? Feel like that's gone completely under the radar

[formal igloo]

Yeah, and you can also change between doors and aps in plus system

[formal igloo]

Not really, i don’t think

[magic bloom]

Not to my knowledge

[royal swan]

I seriously don't see anyone else that can beat Irish in teamwork especially when he revives people in the class update

[magic bloom]

It’s just kinda something Irish mains figure out

[woven acorn]

There's been times where I've wanted a slow day and chosen engineer stuff to help tanks out. Had no idea this was an option

[woven acorn]

I wonder how many other people are oblivious

[magic bloom]

Only person is when angel drops his load out crate so you can get more rocket launcher ammo

[next onyx]

I'm judging characters by their utility.

And general abilities.

[magic bloom]

The Way back machine

Yes

[woven acorn]

I liked Rao for his ability to disrupt annoying vehicles that farm my team but after realising that it doesn't prevent them countering it seemed a bit pointless

[magic bloom]

It does when the hack actually starts not when your hacking it

[royal swan]

Trophy system that counters every player explosive, he gets a deployable shield that has a window and is hard to destroy, has armor, and can play two of his stuff down

[formal igloo]

I wish raonhavk did more

[royal swan]

Thats hard camping and holding

[magic bloom]

But most pilots know to dump their flairs before the hack finishes

[woven acorn]

Well I've seen them deploy counters after the hack

[royal swan]

And there's been a lot of that

[formal igloo]

Like more helo lose control

[royal swan]

S tier for best teamwork and counters, plus camping playstyle

[formal igloo]

And for look and uniform

[magic bloom]

With the ground magnet it would make helis harder to use

[formal igloo]

Actually looks like a marine

[woven acorn]

Well looks like Irish will be my new main. I should look into everyone else's abilities more

[royal swan]

But McKay is better with his faster ads movement and grapple

[magic bloom]

And pilots already have enough counters considering the railgun tank

[next onyx]

When it comes to viability I think of how they fit into the metagame and perform in their own roles.

[woven acorn]

Railgun tank took me out from across the map. I was so mad lmao

[magic bloom]

That damn Tungsten sabot shell does not play around

[woven acorn]

Meta

[next onyx]

Mackay, Falck, Zain, Rao and Irish are the best specialists that perform their roles.

[magic bloom]

I mean the tank also sounds like it’s sneezing when it shoots

[formal igloo]

Whats magnet

[royal swan]

Rao is uh

[magic bloom]

The helicopters just get pulled to the ground if not being throttled up

[royal swan]

The lowest best specialist

[next onyx]

See nowl.

[formal igloo]

Oh, yeah

[next onyx]

If angel gave away little lunchboxes that gave 50 health.

[royal swan]

It's McKay, Irish, Falck, Zain, Rao

[next onyx]

And ammo.

I would love that.

[royal swan]

In that order

[magic bloom]

YES PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

[woven acorn]

Rao is good in a pinch when a vehicle is destroying your team and you want it to leave

[formal igloo]

That’s a higher skill floor.

[royal swan]

But not all maps and modes have a lot of vehicles

[woven acorn]

Didn't he used to give armour but they stopped it? After that I didn't see much use for him apart from supply drops

[next onyx]

Rao's passive is useful for tracing who shot him.

[royal swan]

He's depending on the enemies choice to pick vehicles

[woven acorn]

There's at least always one point in every match where enemy vehicles start to invade an objective

[magic bloom]

Helicopters are already pretty damn hard to learn to pilot decently well without throwing it dirt while trying to maneuver

This game is easier than the rest but that’s besides the point

[formal igloo]

Wait what about Sundance

[royal swan]

Yeah but they can always bait the hack and just pre flare it

[magic bloom]

Sundance got dethroned when her grenades were nerfed

[woven acorn]

Piloting with a mouse is disgusting, they really need to whack that sensitivity up

[formal igloo]

Yeah

[royal swan]

Dogshit after nerf

Not enough nades

[magic bloom]

Your very correct

[arctic grove]

Sundance is cool af too tbh

[royal swan]

They even took away a nade from her twice

[formal igloo]

But squirrel suit

[arctic grove]

Deepstriking with c4 on enemy tanks

I am that guy

[royal swan]

The shock nade is gone

[woven acorn]

Doesn't matter, if they roll into an objective and you start hacking them they can't shoot for a few seconds and usually scram. Keep doing it over and over and they move on

[royal swan]

They can bait

[arctic grove]

I like to take emps or smokes on top of that too

[royal swan]

The hack has a cool down

[magic bloom]

Until he figures out it’s you then he just focuses you the whole game

[formal igloo]

I wish they had mouse joystick. Like Star Wars battlefront and squadrons

[royal swan]

Once you hack you can't hack for a couple of seconds

[magic bloom]

The hack is actually pretty balanced

[woven acorn]

I never lone wolf it, it's always amongst the rest of my team

[magic bloom]

Since even after being hacked vehicles have a firewall preventing constant hacking

[formal igloo]

If team is actually near you

[woven acorn]

If they aren't then there's no point trying to deter them anyway

[magic bloom]

I mean most pilots can get around the hack either way especially the nightbird since it’s tiny and very agile

[woven acorn]

I take a hack and a soflam for aircrafts that are annoying me

[formal igloo]

I had a orbital match where everybody was everywhere. Like one person per square yard

[royal swan]

Also the can flare and run away making the hack only waste their time

[woven acorn]

If a pilot is doing the occasional fly past I won't go after them, it's only when they constantly wipe everyone out

[woven acorn]

As long as they're running away that's all I care about

[magic bloom]

I mean I fly helis a good amount and you just gotta stick near cover so you can hit and run before the hack even starts

[formal igloo]

What do you guys think of hazard zone?

[magic bloom]

Haven’t touched it

[woven acorn]

Never touched it

[royal swan]

It's not a go to specialist hell I'll demote roa to A and promote paik to s tier

[formal igloo]

Bruh

It’s fun

[woven acorn]

Isn't paik useless now

[royal swan]

Not really

[magic bloom]

Not at all

[woven acorn]

Paik shouldn't be in the game imo

[wide shore]

Played it twice and never touched it again.

[formal igloo]

Is also probably what the giant maps are for

[magic bloom]

She shouldn’t but we can’t get rid of her now

[royal swan]

She stays sadly

[woven acorn]

Whats she good for now?

[formal igloo]

Eh, maybe because it’s my first BR game

[wide shore]

It’s not even a BR game.

It’s an extraction mode.

[magic bloom]

Hyper aggressive rush style games

[royal swan]

Seeing people through walls in a small amount of time

It's a blip of a person so it doesn't stay

[woven acorn]

I refuse to play her out of principle

[royal swan]

I t1 her

[formal igloo]

Yeah

[wide shore]

I enjoy Hunt Showdown. Which is a very similar game. But that game is built around it. Hazard Zone feels shallow.

[royal swan]

When she was op

[magic bloom]

Same

[formal igloo]

I mean like that style of game

[woven acorn]

Smh you guys were part of the problem then

[royal swan]

Skill issue

[magic bloom]

I mean the EMG scanner she has gets you killed more than it helps you a lot of the time

Literally a skill issue

[wide shore]

I T1’d Paik before her buff.

[woven acorn]

Yeah you have a skill issue if you have to use paik

[wide shore]

Still don’t know why they even buffed her at all.

[magic bloom]

I Tier 1’d her Post nerf

[royal swan]

FAT skill issue, can't counter paik lmao

[next onyx]

Paik just feels useless.

[wide shore]

Now her EGM scanner is useless.

[next onyx]

Like cool wallhacks.

[royal swan]

Look at me I didn't see the notification that I was spotted

[next onyx]

But she's just another soldier with a selfish snapshot.

[magic bloom]

Way back machine

[royal swan]

And use my ears to hear the footprints

At least I ain't a 12m bitch

[woven acorn]

I'm sorry I'm at the disadvantage of literally being seen through a wall

[magic bloom]

Average crossbow users

[upbeat sand]

ex dice devs Embark sure do love their retro colours and sounds

[royal swan]

Should've seen it and heard it that's on you

[magic bloom]

insert giga chad meme

[woven acorn]

It's on me for being wall hacked because people loved abusing it? Right

[royal swan]

And I'm viable on the mini map

[magic bloom]

It’s not abusive the cooldown is atrocious

[wide shore]

Only one I have

[magic bloom]

Thank you

Nice pfp

[royal swan]

You could've used your eyes on the dang map

[formal igloo]

I thought pail was bad because no cover to see through

[woven acorn]

That's like saying someone who was murdered should have heard the murderer coming up the stairs. Their fault

[magic bloom]

And you know what I could do?

[wide shore]

[magic bloom]

Main someone other than Casper

[royal swan]

I was seen on the map, you get a notification that I can see you, you can hear the foot prints, oh my god skill issue for not paying attention

[magic bloom]

[woven acorn]

Wall hacks just don't belong in games. She was nerfed for a reason, do you need anymore of a consensus than the Devs having to severely Nerf her

[upbeat sand]

i thought it was a ghost

[wide shore]

I’ve been maining Zain. His passive and his airburst rifle are just too damn good.

[magic bloom]

Bring back C4 jeep launching dice it was in the trailer

[stray surge]

Are you guys excited for the Harry Potter crossover? We're going to be wizards in 2042.

In the trailer they replaced jets with broomsticks, I'm sure people will be camping that.
