#

eh no sundance already been nerfed too much

gloomy wyvern
#

the entire reason that the shootdown exists is to counter nades and such

hexed mango
#

well yeah... its an aps

gloomy wyvern
hexed mango
#

emp caused technical problems apparently, i would love to have it back tho

gloomy wyvern
#

That would be the trade off, many Irish mains only exist in breakthrough because of the cluster nade spam in maps like exposure

copper fulcrum
#

EMP was removed because they felt like Sundance had too much

upbeat sand
#

meanwhile

M A K A Y

gloomy wyvern
upbeat sand
#

too many makays

copper fulcrum
#

Nah, Sundance is Assault. EMP is for Recon

gloomy wyvern
copper fulcrum
#

If Sundance was a Recon specialist then EMP grenade being there makes more sense. Sundance have a Scatter grenade makes more sense than having an EMP one

hexed mango
#

sundance is an assault after all

gloomy wyvern
upbeat sand

#

and they already nerfed the fuck out of the recharge time for the nades, and restricted her to only 1 nade type at a time

gloomy wyvern

#

i used to be makay only before i t1 him

copper fulcrum
gloomy wyvern
upbeat sand
#

mostly cause i found that 90% of the time there isnt enough space to wingsuit most of the time

copper fulcrum
#

Maybe vehicle systems are different in the future idfk

hexed mango
#

that would be insanely op for anyone playing rao

copper fulcrum
#

Yeah that too lol

sharp marten
#

Wonder when the Jan update drops in January

copper fulcrum
#

in January

sharp marten
#

You make me want to get physically violent

hexed mango
#

i would assume its in january

upbeat sand
#

Dice are usually very quick with the monthly updates usually 8-15 days into the month

#

but they did go on holiday through december so ill say itll be a bit later

hexed mango
#

im assuming theyll announce it when they get back from holiday break (which i think is either this week or next week)
and then the update will be the following week

#

so either the 10th or the 17th

gloomy wyvern
# copper fulcrum Also literally every specialist gadget is regenerable/infinite, why would Sundan...

Dozer doesnt apply
Mckay doesnt apply
Zain - isnt op due to the existence of Irish takedowns
Irish - shields are not op due to damage resistance levels
Irish - takedowns are not op due to the spamming of cluster nades
Boris - turrets are not op due to the new system of 3 round burst
Lis - TV rockets are not op due to lack of damage when hitting vehicles & are not nimble to mimic movements that helis are capable of
Casper - doesnt apply
Rao - doesnt apply due to limits on abily as far as range and effectiveness goes
Paik - could use a longer cooldown
Falck - doesnt apply
Angel - gives ammo, how you gonna limit that other than what ive said?
Crawford - not op due to shot pattern spread (its as wide as a hippo -_-)

hexed mango
#

at latest 24th

#

Casper technically applies seeing as he has an EMP on the drone

#

but its not super useful lol

#

and Mackay's grapple does have a cooldown

copper fulcrum
#

Sundance's grenade get taken down by Irish Takedowns lol

gloomy wyvern
sharp marten
copper fulcrum
#

Also if it does go down it takes a bit to get a new drone

hexed mango
#

also as i already said, sundance only gets 1 grenade at once (unlike before where she got 2 to throw at once), and the cooldown is pretty long

gloomy wyvern
copper fulcrum
#

You can also throw the grenades back

hexed mango
gloomy wyvern
hexed mango
#

and there's rocket launcher, c5, etc

gloomy wyvern
gloomy wyvern
hexed mango
#

so disregard angel and ammo box entirely

#

sounds like terrible gameflow

copper fulcrum
#

Shootdown sometimes takes down C5

#

sometimes

#

just when it feels like it or something

hexed mango
#

lol

#

shootdown: "im not feeling it rn"

gloomy wyvern
#

exactly, you cant nerf the takedown without nerfing the dam cluster spam

copper fulcrum
#

I'm not wrong tho, I've had C5 destroy the shootdown and sometimes the shootdown wins

#

Cluster doesn't really need a nerf

hexed mango
copper fulcrum
#

Like all five grenades need to hit you to actually kill

gloomy wyvern
copper fulcrum
#

the throw distance isn't also all that great since they scatter in mid-air

#

at least compared to every other throwable

gloomy wyvern
copper fulcrum
#

It's balanced where it stands right now

gloomy wyvern
hexed mango
#

normal frags are kinda op lol

#

shit feels like a mini nuke

gloomy wyvern
tawny carbon
#

Scatter nade is less dmg because it splits. It have a bigger blast radius. Normal/Standard Frag nade have higher dmg but smaller blast radius.

#

Scatter nade is in its best place rn because of the spam and balance for drag nade to come into play as well

#

Before when Sundance had 2 scatter nades it’s was pure spam. People couldn’t even push the obj compare to now

gloomy wyvern
tawny carbon
#

Devs want balance between gadget and gunfights. Not lend against more on gadgets

wide shore
#

I was gonna just hamfist this last couple of badges for this weeks event. But I just can’t. This mode fucking sucks. It’s somehow worse than conquest assault.

tawny carbon
#

If you complain about nades in general just run Irish for trophy. Just look out for C5s

next onyx
#

Throwing grenades back for the most part is useless due to how short their timers are unfortunately.

gloomy wyvern
copper fulcrum
#

You can also shoot them

gloomy wyvern
wide shore
#

Half the time I just blow myself up throwing a grenade back

wide shore
#

Pointless in this game

tawny carbon
gloomy wyvern
next onyx
#

They also have some stupid anti stuck measure which will automatically explode if they hit too many surfaces at once.

tawny carbon
copper fulcrum
#

You can also just kill the man before the scatter grenades come out

next onyx
#

Sundance grenades explode on direct contact as well which is obnoxious.

gloomy wyvern
#

@tawny carbon dont think it would work

copper fulcrum
#

Additionally there is the method of acquiring skill

gloomy wyvern
wide shore
tawny carbon
next onyx
#

Takedowns as in melee takedowns?

#

I forget they exist due to how shit they are.

gloomy wyvern
tawny carbon
wide shore
#

If you’re stuck between a cluster grenade. You’re just dead. You ain’t doing shit about it. Even if you manage to throw one out of the way.

next onyx
#

Might want to specify the APS part.

#

I don't mind the cluster bombs it's just another grenade but before it scatters it shouldn't explode on impact on a player.

#

Hell, If it didn't do much damage I wouldn't mind it.

tawny carbon
next onyx
#

Hardline's were better.

wide shore
#

Counter knife sucked

next onyx
#

They were the most reactive of the series.

tawny carbon
#

Counter knife is the best

wide shore
#

It was pointless

next onyx
#

Counterknife was bad.

tawny carbon
#

Spam that button to save your own life

wide shore
#

It was way too easy. Most of the time, you try to knife somebody from the side and the game is all “nah that’s the front fam” and you’re fucked because the game was broken.

next onyx
#

It just shouldn't be in the game. Hardline had much better animations and reactiveness straight up.

tawny carbon
#

You can always take a L from the counter knife and spawn again lol 😂

wide shore
#

Players shouldn’t be rewarded for their carelessness. If I get close enough to knife you, and initiate a takedown. You should be dead.

hexed mango
#

shoulda just made takedowns contextual... i want to be able to run up to someone and take them down from the front

verbal crypt
#

How can instakill yo your face be a good thing?

next onyx
#

The rando should be punished for slicing the front of you yes, But if they just conveniently turn around right as you're to knife them what's the point.

#

I forgot takedowns were a thing in bf4 because you're better of shooting them.

verbal crypt
#

From behind is okay, but when a mofo rushes you and instastab you in the face

tawny carbon
#

Obviously you can’t counter knife if you knife them from the back

verbal crypt
#

That the point

#

It was perfect

wide shore
#

BF1 did it best. Back melee was insta kill. Front and side animations were dependent on your current health. Light, heavy & medium weapons that all have different speed and damage. Perfect.

next onyx
#

These were good.

#

Yeah bf1 and bf5 takedowns I don't agree with.

tawny carbon
#

They can tune the counter knife abit if that but not like. Where you can almost to never counter back

next onyx
#

You shouldn't get someone's tags from the front no matter what.

verbal crypt
#

That's why there were counter knife

tawny carbon
#

Do you want to save your own life @next onyx or not?

next onyx
#

Nah you just shouldn't be locked in an animation.

#

I can save my life better by shooting the rand.

#

If they get two slices on me and I die that's my fault.

#

Two three slices.

tawny carbon
#

BF4 you were invincible during any melee takedown animation. Till it was done. Even the counter knife

next onyx
#

It's always inefficient from the front, Counterknife literally serves no use.

#

I'm aware how it works.

#

The attacker is vulnerable.

tawny carbon
#

I saved my self plenty of times from countering

verbal crypt
#

Same

wide shore
#

Only thing I didn’t like about BF1 melee was the bayonet charge. And not even necessarily the animation or anything. I thought they were cool af. But I hate how you could press the sprint button and automatically go into the charge. You should’ve had to be at full sprint to start a bayonet charge. BFV had the same problem but bayonets were less prevalent.

next onyx
#

I'd rather deal with a slicer than being forced in some animation.

tawny carbon
#

And I went along with my day and get 5-10 more kills

next onyx
#

They already do get punished enough because as I said, It's incredibly inefficient.

verbal crypt
#

If your close its efficient

wide shore
next onyx
#

Shoe horning in some counter knife mechanic is needless.

#

Say hardline, You needed two slashes to kill someone. However due to the general TTK, A guy with an m416 can kill you so very easily.

wide shore
#

If anything, the counter knife button should’ve changed every time to a random button. That way people couldn’t just spam F

next onyx
#

Actually that reminds me. We had breaching hammers.

tawny carbon
#

I rather try to save my life set of wasting that life for the team.

next onyx
#

No animation but they were a one hit kill no matter what.

#

I do have an old clip.

#

You can still save your life by shooting.

verbal crypt
#

If its not a bolt action rifle

next onyx
#

Of course.

tawny carbon
#

One hit with a rocket, sniper/mmr headshot, hardcore, heavy pistol headshot, vehicle

next onyx
#

If it's easy to shoot the person why do you need a counterknife mechanic.

wide shore
#

It’s not a matter of “realistically what I should do” it’s a matter of, why would I even bother using this mechanic if it only works half the time. Why should I get punished for getting you low enough to be killed by my melee weapon if I could just end up dying instead?

tawny carbon
#

Can’t one hit with a smg unless your very low HP

#

That’s on you to take that L in a counter knife @wide shore

next onyx
#

It's a system that created unnecessary bullshit. There's no skill behind it just haha press button to counter knife.

verbal crypt
#

Same as knifing no skill needed

#

Just smash f button

next onyx
#

From the front yes.

tawny carbon
next onyx
#

But as I've explained, The TTK's far exceed how fast you can swing your knife.

wide shore
next onyx
#

(Generally)

#

The only thing that's left out are snipers.

tawny carbon
#

Knife can one hit anyone. No skill required

next onyx
#

From behind and the side only.

tawny carbon
#

Get close and kill

next onyx
#

And you need to sneak up on someone to get it.

hexed mango
#

in 2042?

next onyx
#

Or rush them when they're completely unaware.

wide shore
#

And if someone gets close enough to melee you like that, you deserve to die.

hexed mango
#

knife in 2042 does 50hp regularly

tawny carbon
#

Countering from the front can save your life or take a L

next onyx
#

2042's melee system is not worthy of a mention, It is abhorrently bad.

#

Shooting them instead of relying on a system that holds your hand is better.

wide shore
#

This isn’t like BC2 melee. Where you could jump around and knife somebody from 20 feet away.

tawny carbon
#

I saw a person got 50 knife kills in a game

next onyx
#

BFH, A literal I guess copy and paste of bf4 has a better melee system.

tawny carbon
#

That man was crazy with knifes In Breakthrough

next onyx
#

I can kill some one faster than they can swipe a knife at me. I don't need a counterknife to save my life.

copper fulcrum
#

I've had times in BF4 where I've counterknifed like two or three people at a time

next onyx
#

Yeah think we've all had that moment.

tawny carbon
#

Just take a L from a knife 🔪 BlushCat

next onyx
#

"Oh hi"

wide shore
#

Because it was and is too fucking easy

#

It isn’t 50/50 like they thought

next onyx
#

It's really easy to retaliate.

copper fulcrum
#

It really doesn't help that you had like two whole seconds to hit the biggest [F] Key marker in the center of your screen

next onyx
#

Literally.

wide shore
#

Should’ve been a random button every time.

#

At least then there would be a chance for the attacker.

next onyx
#

Infact it was harder to die from a counter knife (from the victim's perspective)

wide shore
#

Yup

tawny carbon
#

Just set up a macro to spam the button when holding the button

turbid compass
#

What’s the xp loss on ai battles compared to normal conquest

next onyx
#

That's on purpose to prevent abuse.

glacial quarry
#

i just got reported by my own team for going 102-16 😭

wide shore
#

Not to mention BF4’s incredible net code that sometimes just initiated a front melee on somebody you clearly knifed from the side.

copper fulcrum
#

AI Battles can give like 15k xp or so

#

It's not bad, but not great

#

whjats yall kd ratios?

gloomy wyvern
# gloomy wyvern I and many others dont need this game to go down the same path as R6, doing upda...

Touching on this before I go to bed (Good morning from my time)

Irish play style is defense, has absolutely never been a problem operator. (I get upset when they take down my stuff but at least I & many others can put up with it)

Sundance play style is attack, has absolutely been a problem operator due to the nature of cluster nades

Sundance is the very reason why I play Irish in breakthrough defense. I would put my next 10yrs worth of pay twords the fact you will have at least 1/4 of players in breakthrough rounds playing as Sundance because of 2 reasons:
• has a glide suit which can cover ground faster than parachute
• has infinite nades & cluster nades on that mark

Out of that 1/4 of players,you'd have at least 1/3 using the cluster nades

next onyx
#

Random question out of nowhere haha. I think I'm on 4.16.

tawny carbon
#

I personally never had an issue in BF4 about knifing

next onyx

Let me find an old match where I almost hit 200 kills.

burnt flame

wtf

#

and this is all infantry?

tawny carbon
#

You good? @burnt flame

wide shore
#

I’ve only ever cracked 100+ kills in a 1000 ticket server in BF3. Never in any other game. I’ve come close, in BF1 and BFV. But never passed 100 in a round.

burnt flame
#

mines 78 🤣

wide shore
#

I doubt I ever will in 2042

tawny carbon
#

BF4 my highest was 89…. Lol BF3 was 57

burnt flame
#

sheesh

wide shore

Highest kill game I ever had was 120.

burnt flame
#

but tbh there is ne\rds that get 300 kill streaks on bf4

glacial quarry
#

i got like 3.3 kpm on humans with avancys

tawny carbon
#

Non locker high text matches, for BF4 just normal big conquest dice sever

wide shore
#

I’ve passed 90 kills on a few occasions in BF1 operations rounds. But never passed 100

tawny carbon
#

I got 77h with Sundance

wide shore
#

I just don’t rush enough.

#

I play too passively to get numbers like that.

#

But the upside is I also don’t die a lot.

With DLSS balance.

Not bad

next onyx

It looks nicer.

burnt flame
#

yeah u would hope so lol

next onyx
#

I used to run on a high medium mix before getting my 5800x3d.

tawny carbon
#

At high, at 2k for 3080 isn’t bad

burnt flame
#

isnt it hurting ur cpu that its on 91 degree?

next onyx

Now I run on full high and it looks pretty.

#

It's fine,.

burnt flame
#

how?

next onyx
#

It's not hitting 100C.

copper fulcrum
#

2042 is a very pretty game

next onyx
#

It's a naturally hot CPU anyways.

burnt flame
#

what cooler r u using?

copper fulcrum
#

I am also naturally hot

next onyx
#

Ak400.

#

It sits between 75 to 90.

#

Keep in mind here.

#

I'm in Australia and it is the summer time so.

tawny carbon
#

Water cool or fan cool?

#

Or both?

next onyx
#

Air.

copper fulcrum
#

Way hired someone to constantly blow against his CPU

next onyx
#

I have big fan to force very fresh air yes.

tawny carbon
#

At 85-90+ degrees is meh …. I looks closer at it

ebon pilot
next onyx
#

I came across a computer with a 3080 and 12900K at the tech store and I could feel the heat.

burnt flame
#

wait really 85-90 is ok?

next onyx
#

Yeah it's fine. A little concerning but it's not throttling.

#

Again keep in mind it is summer here.

tawny carbon
#

It’s ok but still keep an eye out on temps before any higher

next onyx
#

Cooler than my 5600x which sat on 92 to 96C.

burnt flame
#

wow lol

tawny carbon
#

If high temps, lower graphics before lowering resolution

burnt flame
#

i HAVE to run msi afterburner with fps cap or my pc just dies ahah

#

i have 120hz monitor tho so its ok

tawny carbon
#

5600x takes a beating for sure

#

Especially compared to a 3080

This game is a hot game anyways.

there will never be a direct better game in every way

its always on choice

hexed mango
#

quite

eternal narwhal
#

yeah

#

like i might hate the gunplay in mw but someone else prolly thinks its so innovative and loves it

upbeat sand
#

people have to stop yelling bout how this 1 game is better than this other game in every way

hexed mango
#

probably the kids running around with the lockwood mk2

#

i got the Lockwood 300 gold really fast, loved it

eternal narwhal
hexed mango
#

shotguns felt funny and fun

#

but its def a certain taste

eternal narwhal
#

yeah

hexed mango
eternal narwhal
#

its not that i dont play the game at all

#

but

violet sparrow
#

but what huh?!

eternal narwhal
#

sometimes i wanna play a game that makes me feel a lil more free if that makes sense

#

like movement wise

#

gunplay wise

fr

violet sparrow
#

is that BF to you?
Honestly im so new to the FPS genre i dunno a thing lol

#

they all seem to the same to me

eternal narwhal
#

that is battlefield to me

#

brandork

#

in mw2 right..

#

having more attachments on ur gun

#

makes ur gun somewhat worse

#

its so weird

hexed mango
#

fr its stupid

violet sparrow
#

weird

eternal narwhal
#

you would think having more attachments is good, but because it makes ur gun heavier, ur ads speed is worse

hexed mango
#

its just annoying how fine tune picky the system is

#

like i understand in real life it could have a detriment, but the extent mw2 takes it is annoying

violet sparrow
#

Yall ever try Tarkov? 😮

eternal narwhal
#

they've gone for a very realistic type of game this time, which isnt so bad since its something new but it makes for clunky gameplay

eternal narwhal
eternal narwhal
ebon pilot
#

I mean, ADS speed is decreased in 2042 as you use bigger and bigger scopes

copper fulcrum
#

And using the only actual builds that give you any real positive for MW2 is considered 'using the meta'

eternal narwhal
copper fulcrum
upbeat sand
eternal narwhal
#

it would be logical to have a bigger scope to mean a lower ads speed

hexed mango
#

yes.

eternal narwhal
#

yes

violet sparrow
# eternal narwhal heard of it, never played it tho

Tarkov is pretty fun if you dont mind "realism" (im not sure what realistic gunplay is like) and dont mine losing your gear
It would be perfect for me if it didnt have map specific extraction zones kind of like Warzone 2 DMZ

ebon pilot
#

wat

copper fulcrum
#

Having a red-dot of any kind reduces ADS speed in MW2 lol

hexed mango
#

yeah its crazy

eternal narwhal
copper fulcrum
#

except for like a really shit red dot that no one will use lol

hexed mango
#

lol

copper fulcrum
#

So what happens is that you get players using what is considered 'meta' because there's only so many builds that are actually good or players goofing around with 'cursed' builds

hexed mango
#

im watching inglorious basterds rn cause why not

copper fulcrum
#

And BF2042 while there isn't as many guns, I see all types of builds on different guns

#

I saw someone using Subsonic on an MP9 for the first time in my life the other day

hexed mango
#

lol

copper fulcrum
#

and today I learned that subsonic exists on the DM7

hexed mango
#

what.

#

well that is def interesting

#

what does subs even do, ik it makes it sound muffled, but anything else actually practical

copper fulcrum
#

Gets rid of the tracer and lowers the volume of bullet snapping (or I think removes it altogether?)

ebon pilot
hexed mango
#

lol

hexed mango
copper fulcrum
#

So it's harder to hit longer distances because you can't really see where your bullets are hitting exactly but at the same time it's harder to detect you

eternal narwhal
#

honestly in bf2042 it doesnt necessarily matter what gun u use, (obv the better the gun, the more unstoppable you will be ) but its more so ur skill. ive been using the M5A3 for a while then switched to the ACWR which is supposed to be "worse" or one of the not so great portal weapons and went on a 24 kill streak last night

ebon pilot
hexed mango
#

so are regular suppressors useless

copper fulcrum
#

Not really

#

I think it's like no red dot past like 15m

hexed mango
copper fulcrum
#

I don't know if pairing subsonic with regular suppressor gets rid of it entirely

#

If you pair a subsonic with heavy suppressor then you get the BFV effect where there are no hit indicators

ebon pilot
#

the suppressor will say whether pairing it with subsonic rounds will remove the damage indicator

copper fulcrum
#

I have never really used that combo tho

dire quest
#

Launchers with suppressors when dice?

ebon pilot
hexed mango
#

which guns have heavies

copper fulcrum
#

DICE please gimme a suppressed masterkey Kappa

hexed mango
#

fr

copper fulcrum
#

I know the MP9 has it

ebon pilot
hexed mango
#

i'd abuse a suppressed masterkey

eternal narwhal
#

What’s a suppressed master key?

#

Is a master key a gun?

dire quest
#

Suppressed c5 when?

ebon pilot
hexed mango
#

suppressed frag when

ebon pilot
#

it can open any lock

hexed mango
#

the lock to my heart

copper fulcrum
ebon pilot
#

by destroying it

copper fulcrum
#

this thing

hexed mango
ebon pilot
#

funniest thing about masterkey is the fire rate is affected by the barrel of the main gun. shortened barrels give a higher fire rate to the masterkey for example

hexed mango
#

oh so thats why it feels different on the ak than it did on the m5

next onyx
#

YES everything works.

ebon pilot
#

it's just logical

eternal narwhal
#

Hey lads do the radar missiles target ground vehicles?

hexed mango
#

no

#

IR is just air iirc

ebon pilot
#

which is sad

#

gotta run 30mm to do anything to ground targets

#

and even then it's basically nothing

hexed mango
#

agm

ebon pilot
#

those don't do much either

#

jets just can't really focus a target unless they're chasing them, and the only thing that moves fast enough to chase is other jets

hexed mango
#

true

ebon pilot
#

or the target has so little health it can die in one pass like a nightbird or other attack heli

hexed mango

im more used to node require ngl

but i use esm for react

remote kiln
#

it's not cycle efficient, you need to execute a do while loop cycling both into one isn't optimal

hexed mango
#

so just a while loop

remote kiln
#

they're also bound by runner conditions

#

no do while

violet sparrow
#

What if i hate running...?

ebon pilot
#

this is now programming chat

hexed mango
#

we should just work for frostbite

violet sparrow
remote kiln

while is a sleeper agent it suffers from the same issue you've got with if

ebon pilot
#

maybe then we'd have a good portal editor experience for real programmers

violet sparrow
#

I once looked at some C code, am I real programmer? 🙂

hexed mango
#
do {} while()```

what would go in the while if you wish to do something when it is night, cause doing `!time.isDay` or `time.isNight` would return false and stop the cycle
hexed mango
#

or do you mean smth completely different

violet sparrow

violet sparrow
#

Well now lok what youve done!

ebon pilot
#

in reality you wouldn't spinlock because spinlocks are evil

hexed mango
#

ill spinlock you

remote kiln
#

you can also use promises

#

probably better than do while for this use case

violet sparrow

i promise ill pay you back for taco belll

ebon pilot

don't spinlock or I'll personally track you down and shoot you at your desk

hexed mango

please do

next onyx

I read that as spinblock and thought we were playing pokemon.

hexed mango

ill keep all the threads waiting for me

ebon pilot

had to deal with far too many spinlocks causing cascading failures in my limited experience programming

hexed mango

all cause of me, im sure

i wouldnt be surprised if faulty code is the reason 2042 performs like it does.

#

i would love to look at fb4's c++ code lol

ebon pilot

@ripe hedge I have a slight annoyance with bipods. firstly, why do they not auto deploy when you prone, and are clearly on a surface that benefits from a bipod? It does get a little annoying when you have to manually toggle the bipod.
Also, why does said bipod not stay out when switching to and from weapons. when I use a gun with a bipod, and toggle it out, then switch to my sidearm, and then back, the bipod is back to its default off state. gets a little frustrating sometimes.
