it's really that simple
The thing is though for 2042 jets, Their guns are awful. The input is horrible and as such they're a non threat.
it makes you wonder why they bothered
If they had two front guns with none of that crap I would think "Huh, A genuine threat"
sometime on solo i'll hover around with the F35 like a helicopter
just for fun though
Y'all use jets on the unintended things and that is funny
Yeah I see people do that and I hear something in my head that goes "That'll eat a rocket"
What unintended use.
It's anti heli and sometimes vehicles
yea you can never try that in multiplayer
Mostly anti heli and jets
people do but not twice
It's what I go for and get like 5 vehicles before someone gets mad
It's not really a good anti helicopter solution since you have to fight with the input latency.
It's really easy to kill helis as jets
And they're a small target.
so lads
How does something with input latency make them better than a system where none of that exists?
amd announced new 70003d cpus
Yeah we're aware.
Most of the time I go for anti aircraft guns as it's the only way to fuck the sweat planes hard to piss them off
time to dig deep in those pockets to lift the fps in this game
Don't care
7800x3d go brr.
I don't need to spend 1000 on junk again when I have a perfectly fine pc
I got my 5800x3d I'm fine for a long time.
No need for a new one until it requires one
For me could be 4-6 years
Or available for sale or in a junk yard where it would eventually end up
5800x3d is a fine cpu though
i can assure u it does piss us off
Battlefield got me malicious and I main that shit to show the plane mains that your level 4 aircraft is garbage and you should stick to infantry
yeah i couldnt stop getting locked onto last night
so annoying lmao
but i think thats just how spearhead is lol
can barely fly a jet on that map
I will always cherish the memory of the fighter jet that kept going for an AA so many times, that I hit it with a Lis rocket
was a well timed boost too
hit right on the back fin
Let's be honest man. Seeing all the concepts of potential new maps for 2042 and the fact that season 4 is a........ contruction site (don't get me wrong it'll be a fun map sure) but man they are really refraining from being too creative so they can just resuse assets. Give us an airport, give us a hotel, an urban street with homes, a volcano jungle... so many cool ideas being held back by preferring to take the easy route and reuse assets, and Stranded is another example of this. Spearhead is great, but unless we're getting a season 6 7 and 8 then there's no excuse for stranded to exist the way it does, and for next season to be a construction site. TED TALK OVER.
i hope they add more customization in portal mode too
i want an infantry focused map bruh
without the goofy ahh minibird pilots
something like locker or metro idk? but a lot bigger i guess
minibirds wouldn't be the end of the world on stranded, but tanks are horrible
well not real tanks
That military outpost in spearhead looked like a copy paste of the one from kaleidoscope
just like... the light tank and the jawa crawler
I can look past it because the cubes have a lot of care in them, but it is wild how the miltiary outpost buildings that first got added on kailedoscope are now being reused in literally every map, not just spearhead, but all the reworked maps , orbital , manifest e.c.t
It's getting a little inexcusable since we waited as long as we did for the reworks
I guess that makes it even more annoying that it's used in a brand new map like spearhead since it's already being used in reworked maps
why
DICE has really indeed lost their touch on Battlefield games
Not much to ask for new maps to not have reused assets being so noticeable when BF4 had 4 maps per season / DLC and had wildly unique assets for across all maps
gosh has it been an hour already? another 2042 basher
Can't seem to get any vehicle fun
not the same one though, now that's surprising
why is all new unique assets so important to you
that's what I use solo mode for is rampaging bots with vehicles
I heard console players have cat eyes that open by the sides
not hating the game, but moreso just saying that DICE have the potential to do a lot better
Man server browsers are ass
if i hated the game, i wouldn't be playing it
you would be surprised
i had this kid on world of tanks rant at me for literally 5 days a few times each day by pm... about how the company is evil and blablabla
told the kid he was supporting the company by playing the game
Would rather choose a server than be randomly assigned.
Man I don't get why people want server browsers in bf2042
he was also accusing the company of being russian, they're not, infact they sold their russian assets a while ago
Making high quality assets takes a lot of work nowadays so instead they go for reusing same assets in different natural environment which I assume are easier to create with frostbite's tools
bruh
just a normal feature in every battlefield game
wdym?
server browser will probably come later when community servers become necessary
You would end up in a losing team 8 times out of 10, if the game is super popular you can't find a full match without waiting double the time than the random assigned
And when the game isn't doing so well you won't find a game at all
Yeah I get that for sure, it's just extra shitty when you consider that we get a single new map per season. Exposure clearly got the most love because it had to nail the landing for their first season, but I just hope we don't get more stranded situations going forward at least
2042 map design philosophy: make a big open field, add a ship, cube, etc in the middle, and add outposts around that middle central point.
i have literally never experienced this
my ping was always fine lmao
Because I play foreign servers because all of the American ones are full
All the time
ah i see i see
originally, 2042 maps were designed for huge teams but they streamlined them, added more cover
diversified them more
i mean u wouldn't need to wait too long before u join a match
in those full servers
It's a 10 minute to 5 minutes to wait because people like to stay in the waiting line
thats not bad lmao
It's been bad for me
thats normal
bf1 would be amazing if it had solo or bots to fill in the ranks of empty servers
idk, i guess u just couldnt sit still for 5-10 mins lmao
or imagine like a bf1 trench war map with like just bots as ambiance
I hate it every single time and I hate that I have to use it because the random servers aren't working because the game is half dead
I'd rather join a queue instead of searching for a server, taking me 2 minutes and starting up an empty server that does not fill up.
imagine only waiting 5 min to enter a persistent server 
I wouldn't expect 2042's map design philosophy to change. New map concept image also seems to have the same type of construction assets.
I'm lucky if the server has players leaving
be like me and always get full servers 
Also rules, server rules are ass I just want a default server
what game are we talking about
2042
i havent really had an issue recently with servers in the official modes 
Players usually leave at the end.
@hexed mango BR 2049 slaps
also there isnt really ways to moderate portal servers cause only the owner can do it, so...
fr
Would be nice if they hosted all out warfare and portal servers together so we don't have to miss out on a basic function.
Also players are picky
You would never see that map you like because everyone else hates it
tbh at the very least give us the ability to filter by map or player count jesus
Players will leave on the maps they don't like, opening up more slots.
i mean who tf wants to play on hourglass anyways
Hourglass; 0 players playing.
Cause it's so fucking shit.
i mean why don't people just remove it out of their portal map rotation same with breakaway

everyone knows they're terrible
hey youll be missing the observatory later this month! .... 
totally
Uninstalling bfv
Got so bored
And just disappointing on vehicles that I want to play but I can't
i got tired of bf5 hacker problem
Oh shit i nearly forgot PC bfv had that problem
yea its really bad
Thanks ea
hence why im on bf2042
But bfv have more players
Our game so broken even hacks won't work
It's divided
Console to pc
It's half dead on consoles
I wouldn't touch pc bfv
its was honestly the reason i even tried bf2042 lol one day was playing bf5 and i keep running into hackers and got sick of it and you know how if you launch bf5 EA keeps advertising bf2042 and thats how i got here llol
Lmao
I'm really glad that our game was broken at launch
It hit the hackers shit harder when it didn't work for them
EA's strat to getting ppl to play bf2042 is having no functioning anti cheat lol
Also bf2042 anti cheat is great
Wait why is there a playercard with the railgun tank showing a clear reflection of itself against the water? .... there's no mirror / reflection in this game besides shadows
i was talking about bf5 nonexistant anti cheat making ppl rage and move to bf2042 lol
look for the playercard
What the fuck
i'm on my work laptop

IKR ... it should be fucking illegal
That player card is false advertising
It's the confused what the fuck
I know you were just saying wtf as in why are you caring about that detail lul
I'm just mad at my immersion being broken
Do you have ray tracing
we need raytraced reflections
I'm on PS5
I believe this game has ray tracing
not reflections though
Alright
??? what else do you use ray tracing for?
i remember turning that shit on cyberpunk 2077 and holy shit it was godly
I mean who the fuck care anyways
i mean there is ray traced shadows, ray traced global illumination etc.. there are different applications
ok this background?
So
the lake?
So I'm gonna sue dice
Doubt
They never claim that the cards are ingame images
Nah I mean the reflections in general zain
oh
well yeah lol
its a separate rendering that they probably edit to make look nicer
but yeah dont expect that in game kids
much like how you cant execute a ww2 soldier like angel does
It's just dumb as hell parachuting next to a glass skycraper and seeing no reflection of yourself in a 2022 battlefield title
gonna have to wait until 2042 for that
hey but atleast the scope reflections are accurate locations 




Fuck realistic graphics
You could pretty much tell the promotional items were going to look better than the game itself, from the beginning when the first reveal trailer was rendered out at 30fps
2077 probs
All I got to do is look outside
Is that why you uninstalled BFV 
ok what movie should i watch today
i mean i can see why they didnt add that it will be incredibly expensive for the gpu to do that
Everything Everywhere All at Once
No it got boring, plus it was console bfv
will do
i second this notion
I wanna watch that so badly. Is it on streaming yet?
I don't find the ray tracing button on my console bfv
bro just
here lemme dm you
I dunno about that pirating shiz bruh
It's on demand at full price still, but I finally broke down and spent the 20$ to buy a digital copy and to be honest, it was worth it
I think some theaters are even still showing it in limited amounts hence why it's not widely out yet on streaming other than on demand stores
Oh yeah I love being a pirate, it's justified when the product is a overpriced scam
damm finally reached lvl 86 on my battlepass
EEAaO is absolutely worth supporting the creatives who put it together. If it's too expensive now just wait it will eventually be cheaper or on streaming subs
Actually I never pirate anything
Well not to my knowledge
I do remember seeing some pre recorded movies from the theater
pirate adobe because their subscription is bs
What, it's pretty easy to recoup the cost
Then again I suppose it depends on what you're using it for
and admittedly I haven't had to pay for it out of pocket in a while ha
im not paying 50 bucks a month so that i can use photoshop maybe once every 2 months
Just pay for the photography plan, it's like 10 a month or something
It's starting to get to me after cod asked for 70 bucks for content that was 40-30
but then again, yeah if you don't use it enough then, fair enough
I use multiple apps pretty much daily so like I said, depends on what you're using it for
if i make money from adobe products i dont mind paying the premium but i only use it to make memes lol
Amazon UK got it free with prime. Just checked. Woohoo!
Well then damn what do you need Photoshop for lol
I can't get behind pirating, I know people do it - but there is plenty of genuine free software out there
wow thats awesome! Enjoy!
yea but im so used to photoshop cant be bothered learning a new software
Yo someone be a Robin hood and rob any store that sells DVD version of cod mw2022 and re sell the DVDs out for 30 bucks
Whatever, I can't agree with you but I'm not gonna go convince you to stop. You do you
I do find irony though in people who expect (as I assume you do and should) getting paid fairly for your work and skill - but will go ahead and go "eh fuck the work and skill of the people who made this software". 😆 Just as a matter of principle
honestly though if you didn't want to pirate anymore though @vocal zenith , you may just want to look into Photoshop Elements
It's $80 I think for a perpetual license (no sub)
i would feel bad too but adobe is scummy af with how they deal with subscriptions
they have cancelation fee btw how bs is that
Only for the annual subs paid monthly
after i finish the pkp, what gun should i t1 next
C5 now is useless
They do sell month-to-month with no yearly commitment if you want, it's a little bit more though
dang I still have yet to T1 one gun ha
throwing knife
that's not a gun
then again, I don't actively play with one weapon constantly so I need to bunker down and do that at some point I guess
it shoots projectiles its a gun too me
Maybe you can mix it up and go with a DMR this time, love me some DM7 magic
have u t1 the railgun yet?
im 400 away from t1 personally
good idea, haven't really appreciated the DMRs that much
except bsv-m because i t1'ed it within the first two weeks of it existing
ha nice
I think I'm closest to T1 on the M5A3, I think I need like 300 kills to T1 it
IMO they need to drop a bunch of requirements for the vehicle masteries, considering many of them can only be used half the time
plus the jets are just disrespected with their mastery progression
i really want to t1 my glock it has a sick looking t1 skin
The skin that came during S2 was pretty cool and sort of similar
missed it
ah too bad
im like 4 days old in this game lol
oh nice, welcome!
PF51 has an awesome looking T1
I was all about that when it released, but now I am just not a fan
the damage is so dang low
the skeletonized looking slide is what i think makes it look cool lol
I really hope we get a new SMG in S4 - not just vault wep
We haven't gotten a NEW SMG yet right?
I wish the DM7 could stack up
Bro I almost have the avancy to t1 can’t wait so I can never touch this shit ass lmg again
avancys isnt that a good lmg?
I don’t think so personally I’d rather use the m240
Pew pew pew.
Become VCAR main.
I've actually been enjoying the Avancys, still find it pretty decent even after nerf
but I JUST unlocked the M240B tonight, looking to give it a spin soon
I just find myself losing a lot of gunfights with it but I’m also dogshit

I saw that mercury
Bro I wish they’d made squad for console
Are they planning on taking away Conquest Exodus 32v32?
But devs said they don’t think series x could handle it but I’ve seen people say series x could definitely handle it
It is technically a mode that can rotate in and out, but as of late it's mostly been in
Hope it becomes official then because I just cant handle 64x64 lol
I don't think it's rotated out in several weeks. If anything, you might see it rotate out for updated "Escalation Conquest" playlist whenever we get the updated Breakaway
pretty much whenever we get a new map or map rework, Exodus tends to step aside for a week or two to accommodate for that
this is correct
its really good
Mackay was just a tad too late
https://streamable.com/j2zv9y
They might add an OG SMG that's effectively an extremely shortened carbine
Like AKS-74u but possibly more extreme?
aks is already in the game
Or maybe like the PDW-R from BF3/4
From BF2042?
They'll probably call it X95A3 if they add it
idc they should just add it
They ought to add some rifles we haven't necessarily seen - beyond the platforms that see common military service
Maybe add some civie rifles that got converted to select fire (for the game)
I mean we have three AR15 variants already lmao
ik
More if you look beyond the ARs
I don't think I use the AR15 on any modern battlefield games
i wouldnt
idk Alex over here doesnt respect cool weapons so i doubt we get anything of use 

I was thinking something like the RDB, a semi-auto .223 rifle, converted to select fire for military use. Aside from the questionability of how a real-life version of such a firearm would actually fare in war, that's one rifle that has that futuristic look - would fit in pretty well in a game like BF2042 in my honest opinion
Or if they really want to be original, how about a bullpup double-barrel shotgun
Shotguns seem to be pretty mid (except maybe the 12M)
Double barrel shotgun that's something I like to use in 2042, so I can try to become like the doom slayer
yoyo guys'
we got a pump that does 0 damage, a (whatever its called A12 or smth idr) 12M that is just op and a whatever the NVK is that performs well and an underbarrel that is actually good
fr
why am i getting easy anti cheat policy violated
MCS-880
ok
i have done verification and even repaired
idk why you said that but ok
it's good
any1 knows?
well was good
MCS is (ok) in the right circumstances. Trouble is those circumstances are rather limited.
idk from my experience I wasn't breaking the world with the MCS
any1 for the help?
yeah if you're really close and the reticle is completely on your target (like leave 0 space)
back then it was great when spread was lower
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/850376380822323230/1042569299203723294/shotgun.mp4
I remembered something, I never use the marksman rifles back in BF4 because I got busy using the carbine rifles such as G36C and the LMG for the support class
matess?
Contact EA for game/account issues
SKS my beloved
but yeah nowadays it's like
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/850376380822323230/1051545689802428476/image.png
exactly
you hit all those pellets lol
and like 80 damage at point blank
is just
idk
bring me back to the good ol days of
even then it was only good if you were close and hit mostly head
tbh I find shotguns easier to kill with when you don't aim
but its especially worse with the 3.0 update
no yeah 100%
still
12m is the only really really good one
It's not amazing but it's usable
nah nah back then it was getting kills like
idk man
i saw other videos during s1 of there being people at point blank that hit all or nearly all pellets and did only 50-70 damage
I went on a 300-kills run with the NVK-S22 and I really despise that shotgun.
nvk is pretty good
A lot of these shotguns seem to work better with the slug rounds
nah
nvk works fine with buck
idk it always felt inconsistent to me
i mean all shotguns are.
the shotguns in this game are just not right
(cause as always, dice doesnt understand balance)
True, true
i dunno whats happening but the holographic sight has to be the most inconsistent sight ive ever used
Saw a streamer earlier playing 2042 with his daughter and son. So wholesome 🥹
Hi new here. Can i ask one of the staff or anyone for help? my game wont launch from steam. been trying different remedies and none have worked
this isnt an official ea/dice server, you're better off using ea's official support system
already tried. they blamed it on server down
try launching directly via your game files then, it could help to attempt a revalidation of game files on steam
i also launch via steam and havent had issues today
do you launch with steam via origin or ea app?
already tried this too. directly from folder exe. even ran as admin
cause i think origin was having some weird server issues... a few days ago
heard about that. i even reinstalled it and EA app auto installed instead of origin
interesting
i also launch via ea app (from steam first)
does it just not do anything when you start from steam, or does it open ea app and then do nothing?
or does it do that and then open the game but not connect
i can tell you the details
that is what im asking yeah
when i try from steam first, it acts as though it launches, opens EA app, dissapears, then EApp appears again
EAC does not show up
if you try launching via ea app does it do the same
same
maybe reinstalling eac could help?
in the game files there should be an EasyAntiCheat folder
reinstall not repair?
does it give you the option for both?
i have uninstall and repair service
🤓
repair then
done
ig try again then
you irl im sure
I don't understand why air superiority has such a small selection of maps
cause ripple effect go brryt
You wish 🤓
bios and drivers shouldnt be an issue for launch
even windows GAme Mode is off
eh i use game mode lol
antivirus is filtered fine
even tried turning it off, same issue
i thought it would be a server issue so i tried another game, BFV
launched fine
server issue would only occur once in-game
i can only guess corrupted files but verification came clean
seems likely its an issue with your install, ik you said you already reinstalled so im not sure what more you could do, if you just try repairing does it do anything
ah
then ignore that
perhaps its a slight chance that your settings could be messed up. but i doubt that would be causing this issue...
You mean Orbital as a map for Air Superiority
if eac isnt even coming up in the first place, i suspect it is still likely an issue with that... what happens if you try the uninstall option for eac
thing is, morning of dec 31st, i was able to play it. the night of is when i started having this issue
Technically, you can just use Custom Conquest, disable all the flags, disable on foot deployment and enable only jets with Portal
are kale and hourglass the only 2 2042 maps
i mean coincidencally that is when they started having server issues... but im not sure as to how that could still be affecting you.
yup
if you do happen to contact ea support again, and they say its server issues, could you ask for clarification? cause here in NA-W on pc launching steam via ea app, it works fine.
it could be some local server, im not sure
that was my thought, local server
i was trying to see if there are similar issues on forums
i think i heard someone else in NA talking about server issues here
but there were def a lot of peeps here having issues on NYE and new years, and seemingly after
have they been resolved?
i havent heard much since
i mean tbh if it is a server issue its out of our hands lol
fucking sucks but tbh ea is as ea does.
heh more than a meme now
fr
i was going to post a gif but this somewhat affiliated with EA so i wont xD
lol that is funny tho
so currently im at a loss
as am i
game just decided to not work when it worked before? i didnt even make changes
i mean others were having similar issues earlier in the week... assuming its server problems, it wouldnt require a change on your end
they have allocated servers for specific games, its entirely possible
yeah i dunno what to tell ya
just seems so isolated
what part of naw do you live in
cali
nor or socal
norcal
hmm.
near sf
daly city to be exact
hows the rain lol
heavy af
yeah im closer to the valley, basically im as east as you can go and still be considered in the bay area lol
east? walnut creek area?
little further east but yeah general direction

The "Year 1 Pass Pack" will give you access to the four Battle Passes that will occur take place in the 1st year of release.
The 3 extra bundles are incentive to purchase.
If you do not buy the "Year 1 Pass Pack" you will still receive all new Maps, Vehicles, Guns and Specialists.
The "Year 1 Pass Pack" simply pre-purchases the 4 Battle Passes that will release in the 1st Year, once you have a Battle Pass purchased you will need to Rank up the Pass like most other games to unlock (premium cosmetics, Currency and other items).
No Guns, Maps or Specialists are locked behind the Battle Pass, only Cosmetics."
uh
hey this is still true right?
give me a sec to read
yes
all content, maps, guns, vehicles, etc is in the free battle pass, aka you dont need to pay at all
cosmetics are included in the premium battlepass and ultimate edition (which includes the premium bp)
tho there are only 2 versions of the game for purchase currently
im just in a dilemma on if i should buy the ultimate edition or not, i do like cosmetics but i dont know if its worth it
i say buy if you have the time to unlock till lvl 100
not sure when the season ends
Standard Edition is just the game, again all content past and present is free
Ultimate Edition is the game + the ultimate edition pack (M5A3 Skin, Ranger Skin, Casper Skin) + Y1 pass (all battlepasses) + Gold Edition Bundles (3 specialist + vehicle + gun sets)
with ultimate edition you get the current specialist (aka the first 4 tiers of the BP) immediately
all other content from S2 and S1 are locked behind missions that you can do to unlock them for your use
tbh if you're on the fence, get it on sale, which i believe it is rn (unless it recently ended lol)
ya i know it is 26.39 CAD on steam for regular version and 62.99 CAD for ultimate
oh sale ends tomorrow lmao
ea is having a winter sale, ending jan 5th
i mean if you dont want to spend 63 CAD for ultimate, dont
its not gonna change your gameplay experience
Gold Edition Bundles (3 specialist + vehicle + gun sets) so you get some guns automatically unlocked ? ones that you would normally unlock playing the game more
and you can always upgrade later if you want
just skins
sorry shoulda clarified
they're skin sets, 3 of them, each with a specialist, vehicle and gun skin
but does this battle pass include all other content released in year 2?
you get those via assignments, for both S1 and S2
which is what it is on now
S3 is on now
oh
Year 2,
year 2 is just S5, they havent released details about if it is included in Year 1 or not... its kinda vague ngl
i would assume, if they appreciate their fans, that they would include it in ultimate cause it'd be stupid not to. but the printed text is Year 1...
Don't ya'll just love it when you can no longer go prone until you die 🙃
10/10 glitch would experience again
when tf does that happen
my fav is when you cannot ADS until you switch your loadout
Well fuck me with how much you play I guess I have some stupid PS5 exclusive glitch
either that or you don't go prone a lot
i do get the the not being able to ADS after getting out of a vehicle thing tho
It only happens when I slide excessively tho and I do that often. Is this not common amongst most of you?
i slide but dont really spam it cus its not smth i need to do lol
The apex legends in me tells me to slide all the time
just to get places
breakaway out yet?
i would probably slide more out of muscle memory if i switched circle and L3
wait, are classes still coming with the breakaway update
Nope but it should be out any day now. I highly doubt it will release on the announced end of the month date. They always come in clutch with the early updates
and yes classes with breakaway
i am waiting
I'm beginning to think they set their announced dates way ahead of when the update is likely going to come out just in case there's issues. They cranking those updates out nice and fast compared to the endless wait for season 1 lol
no they didn't
You mean this
ye
Ic
season 3 is 2 weeks longer right?
thats what i would do when i had a fast food job in highschool, lie about the wait time knowing ill get it done faster than what i said. Cant complain about getting smth faster than expected 
Lmao that's strats right there
I wish I could've done that in my cinema job, but I'm always facing the customers and they can see me the whole time 🤣
i mean i prone often but not every life ig
is it after revives or smth?
omg do yall remember the preseason inside-wall bug that denied revive
Nah It's just usually after sliding and I slide an unhealthy amount
Nobody saw me edit my short comment like 5 times in a row
i love jumping, then sprinting into a crouch slide, just to jump out of it
Nobody
i did see it
how many fingers
3
lmao wtf
that's what she said

like?
uh
nothing since last month
is it the loading icon on the end screen/outstanding performance/squad?
There hasn't been a patch since the 11th I think
SHIT i just made a terrible joke thinking someone was being funny and I think it was actually just stratford mispelling something in my team chat 😳
It wasn't anything crazy, but I hope it's just a guy with a similar name lmao
Stafford17 is the name
not strat
Lmaoooo I forgot how his name was spelled so I just panicked and assumed it was him
good one
Straatford is my dad
(i hope)
did they ever replace freeman? (sounds harsh, but idk)
I mean I assume the other community managers will do the stuff freeman did like dev update voicecovers
tru
is alexia a community manager?
oh hey they have a new producer
wait no thats tiggr i remember
they also have a new assistant developer manager starting next week
alexia is a producer, no new Global CM yet afaik
rip
I miss Braddock.
Jeff is the coolest CM i've met so far
Way for Global CM 2023
nah
Doesn't Braddock do CM stuff with the new skate game?
yeah
skate and NFS
he's in the skate discord. he's neat.
We need to bring old ESL gather 5v5 thingy from bf3 🙂
I’m so sick of these twitchy fucking pc players and their suspiciously perfect recoil compensation
This is why BF1’s recoil system worked better.
Battlefield after 10pm is fucking unplayable…
Recoil isn’t really that strong in this game. And controllers get less recoil anyway, so just keep practising I guess
The only gun that is somewhat hard to control is the pkp due to its horizontal
Boot up an aim trainer and play some b180T, PGTI, mini sphere voltaic and vertical smoothness
That’s what I did
There’s weak recoil and there’s getting beamed from a hundred metres by a full auto assault rifle
Guns are accurate in this game, which is why I think gunplay wise it’s one of the best
Cause if it wasn’t accurate I bet you’d be complaining about the spread
There is no goddamn spread in this game and that is genuinely a problem.
I like BF1’s gunplay because it makes you put the effort in.
Best part is that the recoil bug is a thing, once that’s gone it’ll be so much easier to control :)
It’s accurate if you control your fire, not magically negate everything just by dragging your stupid mouse down.
According to some folks on another discord, it affects controller too, so it’ll benefit everyone
Newsflash, guns have fucking recoil.
Having recoil be the only thing that affects aim is bad enough before you get to there not even being any recoil.
At that point you might as well be playing frigging laser tag.
Given the engagement ranges in this game it’s probably done that way so fights are actually possible
Plus you can slap on some accuracy + attachments to make them even better
Orrrr we could lower the engagement ranges to something reasonable.
Which they’ve been doing slowly, but yeah the ranges are still incredibly long
Maybe make goddamn shotguns viable while we’re at it.
I don’t usually use shotguns in games but I’ll probably try out some of 2042’s later
See what they are like
Also for laughs I want to try out a controller one day
I’m playing with a big ol’ TV basically filling my vision and half the time it’s still a pixel hunt with these people.
Taa doesn’t help
I wonder how bad it must be for people sitting way back, or using little monitors.
One reason why I appreciate the little lights they have now
i think i got burnt out on the game
Ahh good morning Tano , I love waking up to your rants
I see we are playing more BF today your fav game. Nice nice
Me too. I come back once or twice a week to complete the weeklies
Feel that...
Y’all seen temporyals new 3.2 leak,
Just wondering did they rework on the big maps?
yes, theres some left to do
So now the maps are a little bit smaller which will lead to more action?
I think that’s just something left over that Temporyal found, as even lore wise it makes more sense for Irish to be proficient with LMGs, and he got changed from engineer to support.
I know I'm surprised recons get screwed
Data mined info can also be old and outdated stuff left in the game files
How that seems like a solid rework
Extra mags for everyone notyou
You know the condor, what’s the name of its real world counterpart?
What’re the go-to SMGs rn? I know that the PBX is solid
The scope breath/stabilization is really not a big deal
Constant steady in data mined and longer brrath in official also directly contradict
osprey
Which leads me to believe the datamined stuff is way outdated
And was dumbed down to the official
I think I just saw two
They’re coming for you
neat
The fact that lmg benefits also swap between classes kinda indicate the datamined stuff is also old and obsolete too
So I'd just go by the official announcement
Which is "everyone gets something except recon ....uhhhh -checks wallet- here's [hold breath longer]"
Assault gets kinda screwed too
Two flew over the golf course I’m at
Its about time we took care of that golf course
"NOPATS the russians are on their way to buy the last of the golf balls the president wants. Get in there and GRAB the PRESIDENT'S [radio cuts out]...."
According to the map it did a little circle
Sometime boeing tests the F15EX's out of the stlouis airport
Id bet its a training flight or something
Targeting some sheep probably
I really hope 128 breakthrough gets added back permanently purely because my friend who just bought 2042 recently hates conquest and playing 64 breakthrough makes you miss out on so many other good areas of the conquest layouts. Like I'm sure if the mode got added back it would include areas like the tunnel base on top of the hill in orbital which would be dope
My biggest disappointment is well, besides the fact the Russians are attacking and not the United States is the fact the vehicle scaling is disappointing. You should easily get double the tanks and vehicles, not the same as 64.
Youd just have transports getting 200 kills instead of 100 then
Or two getting 100
I think itd be still worse though
Lis is best
Not when she has like 2 gadget options
The best rocket and what else
She has two tv guided rockets on spawn. Theyre good
I don't even know what crawford is
You also forgetting that two of the engineers were season pass unlocks so they are behind assignments for new players
Arguing that lis is bad though is... a weird take
When are they going to nerf jets into the ground. There is virtually no counter to them at all. To long to lock onto, and even if you manage to lock onto them with any AA they can just after burner away. And then they can just gun you out of the sky even if you pop flares by decelerating to near FULL STOP but still maintaining altitude. Yeah wow cool so unless the pilot majorly fucks up and aims at the ground they usually don’t die. Either needs to have lock on be faster or weaker to AA.
Some might say "wrong"
Jets counter themselves
By being garbage
Transport choppers are easily the most impactful air vehicle in the game
Also the fact there’s no minimum range for their AA missiles is garbage. Being able to shoot an AA missile at point blank and still maintain a lock is trash.
I'm not saying lis is bad, I'm saying the engineer class is bad due to 2/3rds having campy gadgets and 1/3rd having too many restrictions
Should need to fly a certain range before arming
I use lis rockets to breach walls for allies too
I'm sayin' the lack of choices is unfun
And to counter snipers
If i wanna use an m5 launcher i have to use one of the campy mfs
All helicopters need a re work as well. There’s literally no point now in taking anything besides the stealth
What are the other twos specials
Boris and Crawford's perks?
Borises turret I can agree with
Yea i don't know their names
Crawford is kinda… alright
Miniguns pretty decent
And he can revive people and give them rockets
I thought he was support
He is
But we were talking engineers right?
He refills gadgets by one on revive
Boris has a turret, his perk is that the turret is stronger when he's near it. Crawford has the deployable stationary machine gun, and he'll get a new perk when he's moved to engineer
Cause he was all "engineers so bad"
Lis with repair tool is amazing
Its dumb to make giant MG guy an engineer just cause he sets up a giant MG
I guess nobody said he has to use it
His specialty will probably be being able to repair faster or repair criticals
hop you guys see my video 🙂
No
That would be pretty good
Throwing knives are just stupid
I mean i don't but somebody might
lool i just finish it after 4 hours work 😄
I do hate the idea of throwing knives in a game people are supposedly wearing armor (even though it doesnt do anything)
Obviously some people really like knives if they keep adding meme weapons
Its like how counterstrike kids buy unsharpened butterfly knives to flip around
Doesn't make them a practical weapon
I really cant watch videos atm anyway
its ok
Jfc when is the vehicle menu getting the attention it needs. Literally see no vehicles to pick from, and yet they still spawn in without getting a chance to click them.
Its typically the same like 5 assholes that constantly monopolize vehicles in BF games
1 per class
I've lobbied for a queue system / anti vehicle main system for quite a while. No luck so far.
Over and over and over
Yea like its always been an issue
Theyre generally garbage on foot too
It's been an issue / feature since 1942 though 😄
But yea something like a timer after you lose one to give anyone a chance or force you to not spawn in a vehicle
They dont seem to address vehicle issues unless its gamebreaking either
Ie artillery trucks on operations in bf1
They ruin the game for the team theyre on and can't be killed but they're not OP so they never got touched. Some servers dont even allow them
I really hate age of a feature being an argument for permanence
cuz get off battlefield go get cod or something why are youse still playing this
Or that
Because we actually kind of enjoy the game now.
Man the old
"Go play [game] then" slam
Games not for everyone
But are for some
People say it for ANYTHING too
"Ah anyone notice this door opens backwards?"
"GO PLAY COD THEN"
Way do you know The Von
Standard OCE lobby.
There's always one person hiding in some weird part of the map.
No.
People dont always know others just cause their names are near synonyms
That voice
Do note I was partially drunk.
Was
Drunkfield: battle over the liver
I want to see way do a lazy purple demo man drunk commentary
They need to fix this squad spawn system.
This is 90% of what bf4 is like
is there a way to leave the squad?
so I have to be in a squad? sometimes annoying when you want to be sneaky with subsonic ammo etc. and a squad mate spawns near you and starts shooting
Worst spawn i ever had i was 100% stuck inside a boat wall section. I could see and shoot out of it but not anything else
On discarded
It was even a regular flag spawn
Is that the XM8?
The ahhhhhh was the best part
Yea 2nd guy spawned just before you fired on the first? 3rd guy spawned on the 2nd as you were shooting on the 1st so neither were "in combat"
It should have a warning like imminent danger or something
You cant unlock the xm8 AR though i dont think
I didn't really find the xm8 the best for me since it felt like I was even slower than usual with lmgs
I see I see
And the slowness plus the portal gun ads got me killed a few times
Ironically yea the slower rate of fire is why it was never adopted
No the xm8 is fine with rof
I mean the ads walking speed
And I got sick of makay so I was basically heavy tf2 if I has the brass beast and worriers spirit
They main thing about jets is that they just fucking suck. They've been relevant to my game like twice.
No i mean the army literally didnt adopt it because of that
Cause it was basically the same 556 we had before. But slower.
Probably other issues too but that was a big one
Fatass gun
The XM8 was basically a G36 in a bodykit.
Yea it claimed to be modular but only with proprietary stuff
Its main gimmick was the attachment slots, which were proprietary and promptly became obsolete when rails kicked in.
So the armys like
"Yea but the m16 and 249 fires faster and are way more modular
Upshot was that it looked really fucking cool
Rails and then the slot mounted stuff is the next thing
It was meant to be some catch-all weapon like it could have the barrel and stock swapped out to be anything
So theres a smg version, carbine, assault rifle, and lmg
They should combine the xm8 attachments into 1 universal weapon
Put it in utilities category and let us change them through plus system like the bsvm
Actually that might cause people use mg mag with xm8 compact
God I fucking LOVE throwing knives and smoke launcher. Makes me feel like a ninja slicing and dicing.
Have a red flashlight on the front instead of a laser cause the shots will go generally that way
Man I can’t wait to use the thermal sights it’s a shame you won’t be able to see through smoke with them
Thank God honestly. That'd make smoke useless
Its not like theyre radar optics
True
With how easy it is to swap scopes, I'm glad they decided not to let it see through smoke
I Just want tank thermal optics even If they only let you see vehicles for some reason
Since all the energy is contained in the gunbarrel of a railgun it should shine like the sun after firing
Other tanks have shrouds around the barrel for that
It does shine
Playing TDM in 2042 makes it so clear the maps are good awful for close quarter combat
The TDM version of the sand map (Qatar level) is absolutely horrendous
Still bitching huh?
The levels are set up for breakthrough and conquest is an afterthought. Tdm isnt even on the radar
Cause it's not 2005
I'm voicing my thoughts in the official channel? What's wrong with you?
nice
True, but TDM is like the only way to actually be able to have a game of only close quarter combat
Na I’m just playing dawg you know I love you
If you want the cover to matter. Play breakthrough.
If you want some order but way more chaos. Play conquest
If you want total disorder and chaos and for the cover to be set up in random directions thst doesnt make sense... tdm is still existing
I bullied Enders into submission then he blocked me
If only DICE made one urban close quarter map for this game
Tdm is an antique mode.
I see this as a absolute W
Lmao
The only reason it exists is so people dont ask to add it
The only mode even more ancient is FFA
Because it predates the idea of teams
I don't see what's wrong with TDM fundamentally, but OK
The game maps are designed for breakthrough thats why
Ala "enemy is attacking from this direction" is why defenses are set up linearly most often
That's true, too bad they aren't more versatile
They'd have to do a ton more level design and itd take waaay longer
At least they added some portal maps that are playable
all of the m
well yes but what one should i focus on in particular
NVK-S22
any of the ones you havent done yet
MP28
man i hope they fix this UI next update so we don't have to scroll anymore
M44 
They need to add more shotguns
They already have more than 1
1 is too many as it is
What more would you do with a shotgun
Like fire a 12ga shell more 12gagey?
Why though? Theres really not much more they could do with shotguns
A double barrel shotty would be nice
Maybe that
Risk-reward
Why
So it can fire 12 ga shells slower?
Isnt there already a semi-auto?
Like... kinda the peak of shotguns there
"No i want... a really slow one that fires maybe twice"
All the shotguns so far are mid compared to the 1/V ones imo
Only other shotgun I’d want is a Winchester 1897 trench shotgun
If you want a longer range weapon use a rifle
Idk, the 12M Auto sees a ton of use, and the NVK-S122 has been amazing to use if you can manage the reload
Since it Would be a vault gun
But shotguns in the previous games were good tho
The shotguns in this game are good if you know what you’re doing
The slug shotguns were just rifles
That’s kinda how slugs work yes
Go get a rifle
See in this game there’s actually a reason to use them since you can carry both slugs and regular buckshot
Yes
So you’re not restricted to solely using slugs if you want them
Shotgun make war crime stick
I Just wish the nvk would let us choose the ammo type for each barrel
That would be interesting
Ww1 they tried to make it a war crime but jts hard to argue a shotgun is a warcrime when you bomb people with chlorine gas
Buckshot or slugs for the NVK?
Buckshot is generally better but keep the slugs on you if you need to go longer range
Shot is for close, slugs are mediumish range
I did find that the NVK slugs do lose quite a bit of accuracy at range
But it’s still viable to about medium range yeah
It’s also like a two shot kill which is nice
Not medium sniper range either
Like just "when shot isnt working"
Will a slug do 50m in this?
they need to buff the 12m
yeah its underpowered
I think I asked this earlier, but what are the go-to smgs rn? I know the PBX is one
Compared to what?
takes like 6 shots to take out a chopper
PBX is good, PP-29 is good, K30 is ok, P90 is pretty solid
You reeally don't see shotguns a ton in modern combat except for specialty missions
Oh yeah that is pretty weak
Like breaching doors or something
masterkey my beloved
I’m trying to think of any other SMGs but yeah
Or frag12s
Mp9 is super fun still
Yeah MP9 is solid as well mb
Bit innaccurate at range but still good
I also think the 74u is useful on occasion
wtf
It's certainly better than when they first released it in the game
74u got better with its buff yeah…but having gotten it to T1, it’s a masochists dream
They use shotguns cause they can load different rounds like frags, low lethal, or tazers even
You know what
I wish it hit harder
None of which are in the game
Think bf4 had frag12 rounds
needs higher damage
Honestly the damage is fine, it just needs less bouncy recoil
If the AKS's headshot damage wasn't so bad I wouldn't mind it.
I'd be down with that. I tend to tapfire it because of the recoil, but it'd be nice to mag dump consistently
What attachments to run on the PP-29 anyway
I run Arcom with fusion holo and standard rounds.
High power rounds and your muzzle/sight of choice personally
If you wanna run it suppressed high power rounds are great
But yeah you really can’t go wrong with ammo types
Standard rounds have a bit less range but the RPM and size does help.
I haven't ran with the pp in a year. I think it was the second gun I got to T1 and then never touched again so I could get other guns to T1
Never run with the pp out
Reject arcom and embrace wrapped for silent pews
Almost everyone is running around with their pp out
