I really wish as the driver I had an option to kick people out of my vehicle who aren’t doing anything

#

Like it’s not that hard to win and shoot a tow missile at the enemy tank

only way you can get some of the items is from the store, not all of them are included though

#

i feel so embrassed to say this

#

i landed on those 2 big cubes and got out of my f 35, and SOMEHOW, somoene kills me and gets in my jet

#

i legit feel so horrible inside for messing up that badly

Well he only stole a jet so nothing of value was lost

they can kill choppers now

and will be even better at it when the update drops

#

I had a great Lis rocket kill the pilot in a chopper that landed on one.

They couldnt spawn another chopper or get the old one cause it was up there

cursive pawn
#

ill never forgive the japanese!

#

Lis is alright

#

its just so FREAKING HARD

#

to pilot the missles

#

i legit need to drag my mouse 10 times

ebon pilot
#

use arrow keys instead

spiral folio
#

I almost never have to move the mouse multiple times

#

Keys are not good enough for lis sniping

ebon pilot
#

use keys for big moves, mouse for small moves

cursive pawn
#

oooo

dapper river
#

what about WASD, those should work too right?

ebon pilot
#

I don't think so

patent prism
#

I know you can press E to exit the missile after missing your target, that's a lifesaver

ebon pilot
#

arrow keys in general are bound to view controls

magic bloom
#

See i was gonna do lis as my next T1

#

But I actually wanna have some sanity left

ancient peak
#

Nah lis is honestly just a time sink. Her missile is pretty easy to get used to

#

You’ll start killing jets in flight eventually

#

though you’ll get random misses where you’re like: I hit him tho

chilly jacinth
#

ive had them bounce off targets

ancient peak
#

Yeah they do that

ebon pilot
#

I've had random missiles cut the feed like I hit the target, and then suddenly I'll be controlling it again

spiral folio
#

I think if you "hit" at a very glancing angle the sides of the rocket dont actually detonate it

pure dew
#

can anyone tell me how to fix my ea ? my library is empty for some reason

spiral folio
#

Ive had the rockets glance off the ground and stuff too

patent prism
magic bloom
#

Lis Is bad for me cause I use a controller

#

People turn her missile on a dime using a mouse but I can’t

ancient peak
#

Also make sure to not boost unless youre confident that:

A. Your target will continue along the same path
B. You won’t have to make a jarring evasive maneuver in flight

yea i know ... back in time u installed the game and launched in the game , no origin or EA app involved 🤪

i dont mind launchers,

personally i think the whole digital marked have been better for me,
i buy game, install those i want offline access to "steam offline"
games can be bought in bundles for dirt cheap and not wasting space in my apartment,

i dont need to figure out where my cdkey is when installing, i dont need the cd in my drive when starting the game, this was before no cd exe

I haven’t seen that though

mental delta
#

I like them but they feel too much different from AOW weapons

vocal zenith
#

which is better for assult, armor or medpen u think?

ebon pilot
#

at low health? just press 4 and wait one second and all your health instantly comes back

vocal zenith
#

yea but my main assult is zain which auto heals lol

#

so im still debating which is more usefull

radiant prism
#

Personally I prefer just using a medbox so I can at least heal teammates

#

I don't wanna be one of those T1 mackay sweats with a T1 medpen on their card

vocal zenith
#

im learning to get use to assult having no access to medbox or ammo crate

#

since we will soon get the speclization rework

radiant prism
#

What gadgets is Assault gonna have again?

vocal zenith
#

medpen

#

is forsure

#

i think plate too

radiant prism
#

Yeah but I'm pretty sure there's more

vocal zenith
#

smoke grenade launcher i think

#

thats all im sure about lol

I think maybe I saw Claymore on there too?

They behave differently from 2042 weapons with animations and recoil effects so they’re jarring

#

Oh wait

#

Nvm

#

It worked sorta

#

My stuff is also back in my collection now so maybe the problem's been fixed

hoary frigate
#

trying to tier 1 crawford is torture. the minigun is the worst weapon in the game. cant hit the broadside of a condor

magic bloom
#

Dozer is harder tbh

#

I know cause I did it

hoary frigate
#

i have dozer tier1. for me dozer was not harder, you only need 800 for dozer

#

on stranded corriders shielding with dozer is super easy. with crawford you cant even move

#

often times i spray people with the vulcan and i dont even get the assist unless he dies immediately

patent prism
#

To be fair, I can not recall ever dying to a Vulcan.

hoary frigate
#

i need a better plan for crawford. im averaging 4 kill/assist a game in breakthrough. even placing him near a choke point is hard because once you start spraying the vulcan the whole team can hear it. gives you away to snipers. takes 5 seconds to kill a sniper if hes stationary

magic bloom
#

I’ve dropped 10 kills at once with the Vulcan just due to positioning

#

Or you could shoot at condors and other Types of aircraft it can damage and if someone kills it then you get the assist

calm bison
#

Also Dozer is more fun

#

Bonk

hoary frigate
#

that sounds like a good idea. i was thinking bringing a recon truck with a 50cal and placing it near the vulcan, also bringing railgun. use the .50/rail to wear out the chopper and finish it with the vulcan.

calm bison
#

I imagine Crawford would be better on BT

magic bloom
#

That’s how I got about halfway done with it

#

10x better on breakthrough

#

Considering most people focus down the vehicles

hoary frigate
#

the vulcan has poor accuracy past 40m so its still hard on bt imo, unless your in corridors.

magic bloom
#

I mean it is the idea of accuracy through sheer volume of fire

#

It’s like the miniguns on the condor

strange timber

dlss is the closes thing we have to downloading more FPS so its probably why so many games support it

Why don’t we get that

Because WT is awful at tech tree and is... an airplane game

#

I mostly play warships but i play tanks sometime

patent prism
#

I kinda prefer WT over WoT and definitely over World of Warplanes.

spiral folio
#

I like tanks over ships but i like wows as a game more

patent prism
#

I don't play any of them, but I liked WT more.

arctic grove
#

Wow p fun

spiral folio
#

Warplanes has the opposite problem wt does

arctic grove
#

WT is also fun but jeasus the grind for modern tanks

#

I just want my merkava😭

spiral folio
#

Wowp is a planes game made with a tank games engine so it performs weird in the air.

WT is an air game primarily so the ground stuff performs weird.

arctic grove
#

Odd

spiral folio
#

World of warships isnt even made by the same company as WoT

lavish patrol
#

WoWS is arguably the best of the three

spiral folio
#

So it follows its own weird rules

#

Imo wows seems more balanced and simple

arctic grove
#

Yea

patent prism
spiral folio
#

Theres some BS but... its still fun

arctic grove
#

WoT got too many invisible tanks ffs

spiral folio

Wows is also less rage inducing cause of the pace

most likely, you will need a new graphics card before you need more than 32GB memory with a 3060

but they wont

we only got 2 maps confirmed for S4-S5 (one per season)

#

granted they are reworking some of the largest and worst maps in the season. so hopefully that somewhat makes up for it. but its a shame theyre too lazy to create more.

all i hope is that S4 and S5 both bring amazing maps and reworks. and i hope the 3.2 Breakaway rework is amazing.

we're not talking about the same thing

whats the dpad look like rn for the other two directions

Left is Specialist Gadget and Right is Open Gadget

Down on D-Pad is Fire Selector and Up is Throwable

copper fulcrum

That is if we're saying defaults

best guess is they move fire selector somehow...

wow dude, youre saying 8 people out of 64 had to all stop what they were doing and shoot at 1 enemy player in a tank? holy fuck the nerve of those 8 people

why didnt they stand there and get shot in the face by the cannon??

its more funny if you have a squad full of lis and cordiante your missiles

at the same target lol

as long as its against an aussie cunt streamer...its perfectly acceptable leo

ive seen pilots not get hit by any but by trying to dodge all the missiles they crash on the ground

kindred flint

"Forced crash"

vocal zenith

honestly more satisfying

since they caused their own crash lol

remove third person from vehicles

wish forced crashed gave you a kill tho

kindred flint

instantly they are more balanced

hexed mango

i woulda had TOR T1 by now

also lis one hits the pilots on transport heli too so if you see an annoying super hind use aim at the cockpit and u will take out the pilot or the gunner

hexed mango

buff boris right neow

They need to remove vehicles from stranded

thats why you play tac cq grind on stranded

bruh i got killed, there was an enemy right in front of me in a container, and my teammate, outside the container, revived me, in front of the open container, just to blatantly get killed by the same guy, still in the container.

and the thing was, he knew that guy was there.

so, when he died next, i tbagged him

TBH 2042 has an awful hud compared to the past BFs

eager spire
# solar obsidian lighting that works properly meanwhile non of these games have raytraced lighti...

BF1's lighting is fucked because of bugs that were introduced with HDR support, because DICE in their infinite wisdom decided to focus on making their lighting work in HDR back in 2016, when a vast majority of players were not using HDR. So you run into shit like windows being a pain in the ass to see through when your brightness is above 50% in game, which it would be because otherwise you can't see shit in the night maps.

spiral folio

You can do way more in 2042s hud

The ttk for snipers was good in bf1 and not too fast for all the machinegun everyone and their dog had

drowsy rose
#

Like strike metal with metal don't wait

eager spire
# drowsy rose What balancing issues thou IMO

Being able to suddenly decide that you want a masterkey shotgun on your gun and basically win any close range fights is a balancing issue, and also the fact that DICE has to balance multiple ammo types.

drowsy rose
#

BF5's snipers were fine but I felt they were less skillful than BF4s

arctic grove
#

imagine If dice never gave up on bots from BC to V

#

imagine

hexed mango
#

being able to swap from long to close range on guns on the fly is a game changer. being able to swap to a suppressor when you think you need it, and swap ammo types, is just amazing.

drowsy rose
#

BF4's snipers only hit a lazer line at close range

Bf5 was a lot of anti-sniper stuff

Really sad how revives in this game are barely done.

but it isnt, because there's nothing stopping someone else from using masterkey at the same range

and then swapping right back to BCG after the fight

solar obsidian
spiral folio
#

Weapon modding is probably one of 2042s greatest contributions

eager spire
#

it's the potential.

drowsy rose
#

It expands the system more because now you're not locked to optics and it being able to add on suppressors, or different ammo types can really make it a lot more dynamic

hexed mango
#

and i mean seeing as its the literal only innovative thing with this game, they can't remove it, especially if they plan to do another modern game after this.

anywhere from the 16th-31st is game for the update

If a jet uses radars just use a wildcat cause it doesn’t get shit to use against you

i mean its still really vague, their last note was "we'll be back with more details [on the update] later in January" which sounds like its "we'll be back later, in January" or "we'll be back in late January", either is possible.

Thats modern combat for you

Its not even fully modern

F35 is probably the best example of how truly modern combat is dumbed down for gameplay

tough folio

of course theres a level 152 in spawn sitting with the tor, these people honestly are just lame

Yea that's why I specialize in killing vehicles than using em

Cause the same 3 idiots wait for the vehicles constantly

Two rockets really?

spiral folio
arctic grove

I really wonder what people want when they say jet speed is slow, they zip across the entire map in seconds

Which I mean… is what a jet does

spiral folio
#

The gun spreads like a shotgun

hexed mango
#

well "stealth" for F35 is limited irl, its not the F22, even tho its a sorta stealth jet, its not gonna be like Stealth Heli, but more like no map spot

spiral folio
#

Because a real f35 would target a tank from 20 miles launch and fly over supersonic

#

But "gameplay"

royal swan
#

They gotta add more rockets

#

Like the appropriate amount

hexed mango
#

tho actually now that i think about it, how would Radar rockets work on a RCS minimized system like the f35

royal swan
#

10

#

5 on each wing

spiral folio

All the restrictions are in the name of the great
"Muh balanccce"

To be fair how would you balance how the F35 actually works in a franchise like Battlefield

Jets in bf2042 is like what video games did with shotguns

im tired of radar missiles completely ignoring my flares

“Supersonic is useless” I imagine them increasing the playable map size for jets by several miles outside the map zone for no other reason but just to zoom around

There is skill in mortars, it's called timing your shots

not if irish has anything to say

royal swan

I'm fine with Irish countering mortars

spiral folio

Lis is best mortar

tough folio
#

i wish there was a counter for bad teammates

wide shore

As long as the mortar doesn’t have the camera it has in BF1.

hexed mango
#

thing is. i'd be kinda annoyed if they added mortars seeing as how easy it is to spot people in this game. as a mortar, you'd know where everyone is.

royal swan
#

No camera

wide shore
#

The little screen it had in BF3 would be perfect.

spiral folio
#

Thats why lis is best mortar

hexed mango
#

which removes the point of mortars like in bf1

spiral folio
#

Lis is way more versatile

hexed mango
#

where it was less easy to spot people

arctic grove
#

Well in that case

#

Have mortars do good damage but have a longer reload time

spiral folio
#

Scout ahead, attack vehicles, find and attack infantry

#

Anti air

royal swan
#

Just put more time wasted on using mortars

#

Extra reload time

spiral folio
#

Mortars dont do anything something else doesnt do

royal swan
#

Fire delay because you gotta arm it

arctic grove
#

Well vehicle mortars are seriously ganked out of real range

royal swan
#

Delay after using a mortar shell

spiral folio
#

Like youve got zain, lis, grenades, recoilless what do mortars add besides a weapon from 1910

arctic grove
#

erm

#

Mortars are still used tho

#

And very effective

spiral folio
#

They are currently. Buyuuyut

#

We dont have zains or lis rockets

royal swan
#

They are more precise

spiral folio
#

Also mortars are used in faaar longer distances than bf will allow

#

Weeeell no

royal swan
#

Yeah

arctic grove
#

Mortars are still good indirect(?) fire weapons

#

Can’t remember the word

spiral folio
#

Mortars are
"This will hit... pwobly"

arctic grove
spiral folio
#

When they set up a mortar they use the same ballistics chart they used 50 years ago

spiral folio
arctic grove
#

I don’t think so

royal swan
#

Lis rocket is weak as a mortar

spiral folio
#

Ok don't think so but it is

arctic grove
#

You mean it can fly 450 meters while guiding it?

#

Cause I’m pretty sure that range is like 150 meters or so

spiral folio
#

They wont make a mortar that fires 300m stronger than a lis rocket

royal swan
#

If it doesn't have splash it ain't worth it

spiral folio
#

I hit targets at 450m all the time

arctic grove
#

Mortars without splash would be cursed

royal swan
#

Lis is a AP mortar shell

arctic grove
royal swan
#

I want HE

spiral folio
#

Mortars splash is based on the size of a charge within them.. youre not gonna carry a 150mm mortar

#

Most infantry carry mortars will be like 60-100 tops

royal swan
#

Grenade has better splash than a lis rocket

spiral folio
#

Mortars are just grenades with a propellant

royal swan
#

The recoilless has better splash

spiral folio
#

Have you seen a mortar shell

arctic grove
#

@hexed mango not sure why I’m asking you this but isn’t the tgm range only like 150 meters while guiding it

spiral folio
#

Theyre really not big

#

Zaina is 100m
Lis os 450

#

Itll more than easily reach the roof of the 70floor towers which are 300m tall. How would i know that

arctic grove
#

Honestly you could be right, I don’t use Lis often but I do know there’s the battery so

spiral folio
#

Go use it

royal swan
#

Don't care about distance I care about explosives

arctic grove
#

I’ll check it out again some time, I could be misremembering just picking off stuff within that distance

royal swan
#

And the fact I can stay behind cover and hit targets

spiral folio
#

The only large mortars are vehicle based. The stryker mortar carrier has am israeli 150mm mortar. There is no way in heaven and earth less than 4 men could carry one

arctic grove
#

The only thing about mortars that gets tricky is using them in modes like BT or Rush

#

Like imagine 128 El Alamein rush with mortars

spiral folio
#

You can use the lis rocket as a mortar. But my recommendation is to fire it away and up from the enemy and loop back

arctic grove
#

You definitely could that is true

spiral folio
#

90-180 degree away

royal swan
#

It doesn't have splash

spiral folio
#

It gives you a little more time

royal swan
#

It won't get me a multi kill

spiral folio
#

Lis has a little splash

arctic grove
#

Then again they can draw appeal to mortars by giving them different strengths

#

For instance; higher splash damage

spiral folio
#

Its something like 2-3ft

royal swan
#

Tanks and the transport vehicle has a mortar gun

#

It shoots mortar shells in a small distance

#

With one of them being fairly big in splash damage

arctic grove
#

If you think about it those mortars could be pretty OP

#

But mainly in BT

royal swan
#

60mm mortar

FB4 was intended to be their version of UE5, but they need to work on FB4 more

I wouldn’t mind either engine cause that’s a whole nother subject

#

Smart people stuff

#

Respawn uses UE5 for their projects, but that's because FB is mainly for multiplayer like bf and battlefront

#

now UE5 is decent for multiplayer, but dice will stick with FB seeing as its theirs to use and theirs to develop for everything

#

JFO and Jedi: Survivor and Respawn's Star Wars FPS game (untitled) all use Unreal, i believe the latter two using UE5 (but maybe JS uses UE4)

#

which is just their preference seeing as they dont necessarily need to prioritize the same things as dice

Is UE5 the best engine out there?

hexed mango
#

debatable

#

tbh there's no one "best" engine either

#

No (I know absolutely nothing about game engines)

hexed mango
#

most companies nowadays (if large) make their own engines, like Dice with FB, CDPR with RedEngine, etc
real gamers use smth like OpenGL (basically a tool to build your own engine/game) which is what Minecraft uses

#

other minecraft games like whatever that new one is, and dungeons, use UE4

#

im currently in the process of learning UE5 cause its cool

last swift
#

and Unity

#

but engines like Unity are also really cool, and its based on the preference of the developer, as Unity uses only scripting

#

lol read my mind

last swift

#

Unity uses C# which is personally preferable to C++ that UE uses for non-blueprint code
but low level C++ is much more accessible for engine development, hence why dice uses it for FB

#

Games arent really made in Java, unless you use OpenGL and are weird

#

soooo... to summarize: UE (4+5) is a good engine, especially for those that want to design without the full programming background, and want to make use of a powerful engine
Unity and other engines are also useful, mainly due to preference. Unity was the first one I learned but ive strayed away from it cause i find UE5 more interesting (and Unity hasnt gotten major updates to be on par with UE5)

last swift
#

btw Unity has now also visual scripting

hexed mango
#

But there's no way to say UE is the best, as its purely a case-by-case situation

#

really?

#

damn

#

Unity is cool for indie devs that dont want to make their own engine, but also want to be chads

#

aka Subnautica

last swift
#

and valheim

hexed mango
#

but UE5 is so cool that i dont blame anyone (like myself) for wanting to use it

#

also TABS/TABG

#

and Phasmophobia (i never played it tho)

#

also not sure on the spelling

#

i really gotta keep up with learning UE5 tho.

#

im not a major fan of block code / visual scripting

#

but its not hard to learn
