[royal swan]

Easy to kill

[eager spire]

he doesn't need two.

[chilly jacinth]

and it should either stay that way or get reworked/replaced by something else

[royal swan]

Y'all have a skill issue lmao

[wary portal]

Is the pf51 good?

[royal swan]

Have problems with one weak ass turret

[chilly jacinth]

i just find the turrets to be annoying

doesn't matter that they suck dick

[royal swan]

They are not

The dogs are

[eager spire]

It's not a skill issue. It's a "it's fucking annoying in a game like this so having more of it wouldn't be beneficial to anyone"

[royal swan]

But turrets, nahh

[eager spire]

you think the dogs aren't annoying?

[chilly jacinth]

dogs are also annoying

[royal swan]

I just said they are

More difficult to kill

But turrets, not a problem

[eager spire]

okay so what, are you acting like we're saying the turrets are more annoying, that's a whole ass different topic, Observer.

[wary portal]

https://tenor.com/view/anyone-hello-goofy-gif-26439280

[wary portal]

Hello?

[eager spire]

we weren't ranking shit based on how annoying it is

[royal swan]

From my point of view you guys can't handle one turret

Skill

Issue

[low timber]

No

[wary portal]

K thanks

[eager spire]

Well, your point of view is stupid. Here's the thing. It's not that they can't be dealt with. It's just annoying that they have to be dealt with at all, especially since they require no active maintenance or protection from the Boris player, they can just toss it down anywhere and be a minor annoyance.

Having more of them would not be beneficial, it would just be even more annoying.

[royal swan]

Oh and the two Boris combo, use a grenade

[spare quest]

No

[royal swan]

If Boris should have one turret then make it nearly like a cod turret

The mw2 one

[chilly jacinth]

fuck off

[eager spire]

no

[royal swan]

Whaaaa

[chilly jacinth]

delete what you typed

now

[royal swan]

No

Eat shit

[eager spire]

actually just delete your whole discord, leave.

go away.

[royal swan]

No

[chilly jacinth]

[royal swan]

[eager spire]

that is the stupidest fucking thing i have ever seen be written in this chat

i'm going to sleep.

[royal swan]

You should see what you type

[eager spire]

I SEE WHAT I TYPE, I THINK IT BEFORE I DO SO.

[royal swan]

The "rifles are the same as shotgun" comment really took the cake

[eager spire]

????????????

[royal swan]

It's burned into my mind

[eager spire]

Hold on what context is this

[royal swan]

A fat stupid comment you said about mw2

[eager spire]

really narrows it down

[royal swan]

In #other-games

[eager spire]

i made a lot of comments about MW2 in other-games, you're gonna have to be more specific.

[royal swan]

I literally said the comment, I'm sure it narrows it far enough

[eager spire]

Oh, the "Iron Sight Marksmans rifles are basically the same thing as shotguns" bit? Where i said people basically use them for the same reason and they are about the same in how annoying it is to die to them?

[royal swan]

Yes that stupid tweet

[eager spire]

Am i wrong?

[royal swan]

I got dms from people complaining about it

I'm not joking

[eager spire]

Hilarious.

Still, though. Am i wrong?

[royal swan]

We were all dumbfounded how idiotic it was

[eager spire]

Because I don't think i was.

[royal swan]

No you were wrong

We came up with a list of things that basically listed what you believed acted like a shotgun

[eager spire]

How? People use 'em in the same close range that shotguns do well in mainly because the people that use them are terrible, it does basically the same thing.

[royal swan]

From rpgs, to nades, to knifes

Claymores

[eager spire]

RPG's are explosives, so no, grenades don't work in close range so no, and knives are melee.

claymores are also explosives.

[royal swan]

They kill people close up

You weren't exactly being very detailed about your argument so we took that to our advantage

[eager spire]

you try using fucking grenades in close quarters and see how well that works out for you, i didn't feel like i needed to account for every contingency because you wanted to be a pedantic fuck about it.

[royal swan]

Thermites

Uh that wall driller

[eager spire]

Drill charge.

What I was trying to say with that argument is that people often use iron sight marksman rifles and shotguns for the same reason. They want instant kills in close range with very little effort on their part. It's why they're very annoying to die to, and why they're often used in very similar manners.

[royal swan]

You claimed that because it one shot kills in close range it's a shotgun, that's was the entire argument

[eager spire]

You happy with that explanation?

[royal swan]

If they wanted close range kills for one shot they would be using shotguns

[eager spire]

They both work in that role. plus i think the marksman rifles oneshot more consistently

which is why more people tend to use those.

[royal swan]

Unlike the shotgun it one shots farther ranges

[eager spire]

yeah but people aren't using them at the further ranges most of the time, they're rushing and doing quickscope-y bullshit except without the scope.

[royal swan]

As shotguns in this game are utter dogshit as comparing it to anything would be an insult to the gun itself but that doesn't prove to be a valid reason to use in a argument

[eager spire]

I think that's justice compared to the annoying ass 725 meta MW19 had, but now it's just replaced with marksman rifles and 74u's so the meta is still bad.

unless we're talking about 2042

in which case it's still funny

[royal swan]

I can talk about both

[eager spire]

i know i'm just saying i don't know what you're talking about there when you say "Shotguns in this game are utter dogshit"

[royal swan]

With the topic of mw2 I was talking about that, but because this isn't mw2 chat we got confusion

But yeah both games the shotguns are shit and outclassed by other guns

[eager spire]

unless we're talking about the 12M Auto in 2042 which is an abomination and proof that god does not exist.

[royal swan]

Unless you got range

And with a sfar or a bsvm it's a easy target

[arctic grove]

hello there

[royal swan]

I underestimated the bsvm that shit kills way too fast

Might focus t1 on bsvm

Need to bot farm the remaining tiers

[eager spire]

Yeah, but here's the thing about that, every time shotguns come up in terms of balancing people are always like "well just get away from them and that's not a problem" but here's the thing if you're actively moving and pushing towards an objective, it's inevitable that you'll eventually run into some rando that happens to be using a shotgun at the moment. You can't actively predict something like that, maybe you can know there's a shotgun user present through the killfeed but you're not gonna be acutely aware of where that person is at any given time, and when you run into that person, you're not gonna have enough time to put distance between you and him before he shoots you and you're dead. Unless he is either blind or very stupid.

[royal swan]

You can also, let some one else deal with it

Let it be someone else's problem

[eager spire]

that's having to rely on teammates, which you and I both know is a game of random chance in a Battlefield lobby.

[royal swan]

True, but there have been a FEW decent teammates

[eager spire]

yeah but you can't rely on that.

unless you deliberately party up with known decent teammates.

[royal swan]

But it occasionally happens

[eager spire]

still not reliable.

brb i'm gonna make me something to eat.

[royal swan]

Alright

Need to add flamethrower

That would be fun as hell

[wide shore]

YES

[royal swan]

Idk if it might be op and impossible it counter up front

It's a fucking flamethrower

Shit is fun as fuck

It was fun in bf1 and fun in bfv

[eager spire]

i am back

only ever used the flamethrower once in BF1 on Fort De Vaux Domination. it was okay, died quickly on account of i ran into all of the enemy team.

[wintry parrot]

Thats like the best place to use the flamethrower

[royal swan]

Best bf1 flamethrower experience, I flank the enemy that was fighting a hallway

You know that shit was ultra kill

[eager spire]

I tried flanking but didn't work

Fort De Vaux is a neat map, i liked playing it in Domination but there are barely any dedicated domination servers on BF1

so i don't get to play the mode as much as i'd like.

[royal swan]

The flamethrower in this game should be Elon musk flamethrower

[wintry parrot]

I remember this one time on argonne forest I got the flamethrower and got like a 17 person streak in the bunker

[eager spire]

Argonne Forest doesn't have any elite kit spawns in Domination.

[wintry parrot]

Fucked hard

[acoustic oar]

Ah yes the good old times. When elite kits were available in the small game mods like team deathmatch and domination. I'm glad they removed the elite kits from the small modes pretty quickly.

[eager spire]

In fact most Domination layouts don't

...Thinking about it it might've been conquest

[eager spire]

Cause the experience i had was relatively recent

🤔

[wintry parrot]

Probably was, this was years ago by now

[eager spire]

well i mean i play BF1 recently

[wintry parrot]

All I remember is it was a flamethrower and it was on argonne forest

[acoustic oar]

Then it wasn't domination. At least no official dice server. No clue if you can enable the kits on private servers for the small modes.

[eager spire]

it definitely wasn't a DICE server, it was one of the BUDz servers

maybe they have elite kits enabled.

i donno

[mental delta]

All I remember is BF1 was in France and this has no price for me 🇫🇷🥖

[eager spire]

but yeah it's probably a good thing that they're not in small game modes by default

because i could see that getting very annoying quickly

If you ask me, stuff like Elite Kits and Behemoths should've been exclusive to the Operations mode.

[wintry parrot]

Eh, I think behemoths are a good edition to the maps they're on regardless of the mode

I kinda wish they'd come back in some form

[eager spire]

I don't care for them, I find them to be an annoyance that don't really do much.

[wintry parrot]

I always found it depended on how well the crew was

[acoustic oar]

ye the loosing team is still loosing even with a behemoth. l

[eager spire]

well i mean if the crew was any good then they wouldn't be losing that badly in the first place

[wintry parrot]

I've seen games turn around because of a behemoth, they're a unique concept

[eager spire]

but then again, Conquest mechanics in terms of scoring are fucked in BF1

[eager spire]

I've never seen it.

[wintry parrot]

I like that aspect of giving the losing team one last card to try and turn the game around

[acoustic oar]

That's rarely happening. If the behemoths shows up the loosing team is like 200 tickets behind or even more.

[wintry parrot]

Oh no yeah not on conquest matches

[eager spire]

I think they should've been exclusive to Operations.

Passchendaele was interesting with it's Behemoth mechanic

because it doesn't have a Behemoth vehicle, instead it just spawns all the elite kits for the losing team.

[wintry parrot]

To me behemoths feed into the spectacle of battlefield 1 more than anything

[eager spire]

I mean, by that logic, it would make even more sense to make them exclusive to Operations. Because that's where all the people that really care about the Spectacle are gonna be.

People that play OG Conquest or Rush, or Frontlines, or whatever, they're not gonna care as much they're just playing the game.

also the maps do most of the heavy lifting in terms of spectacle anyway

I donno why they were so concerned with immersion. The maps already looked really good. That's all they needed to do.

[wintry parrot]

I've seen operations matches turn around when the losing team gets a behemoth, but they're more a part of the games spectacle

But yeah, you're probably right with them belonging on operations maps over conquest

[eager spire]

I don't play Operations. I find that 64 players is a bit unreadable for me and i just don't have fun.

[wintry parrot]

Personally I enjoy operations, I like the defenders vs attackers aspect with points, especially in BF5's grand operations

[next onyx]

Operations / BT good.

I like BT more because the pacing is a bit quicker.

[eager spire]

I'm more into Domination. Smaller scale stuff, I can read it better and generally do better cause i have a better idea of what's going on.

[next onyx]

Would you play Flashback BT if you could?

Which is 16v16 BT.

[wintry parrot]

Definitely

[next onyx]

Flashback BT somehow was even more intense.

Which is weird.

[eager spire]

I donno if i've played BT. I've played Frontlines.

[next onyx]

But welcome nontheless.

[low timber]

128p flashback BT

[eager spire]

Which was the most frustrating experience in a BF game that i remember

[next onyx]

Scoot you cat!

Would be nice if they brought it back.

[wintry parrot]

I always prefer attackers vs defenders modes personally, I rarely play conquest

[low timber]

Btw Way, did you see the KelTec gun I posted in 2043?

Thing was just stock and barrel

[wintry parrot]

Conquest to me always feels a little unfair when one team gets a solid foothold and the other team has no way to come back from it

[eager spire]

well i mean that's kind of the case in every mode, really.

[next onyx]

Jesus christ that's a single shot shotgun from new vegas.

[wintry parrot]

Yeah but with breakthrough it feels more even

[low timber]

According to the KelTec website it’s an smg

I’m betting one of the guns in there is gonna be in S4
Because there was VCAR and NVK-S22 as well, as they are KelTec guns

[wintry parrot]

Don't get me wrong I've won and lost games by holding the first objectives with an iron defence, but in my experience its kind of a rare occurrence

[next onyx]

P50 is keltec too.

Cause of course it's Keltec.

[low timber]

Oh yeah, that too, forgot

[next onyx]

Weird shit.

[eager spire]

Battlefield 2042 is sponsored by Keltec

[next onyx]

The VCAR is a carbine variant of a pistol.

That'll be cool to see.

[eager spire]

The future is powered by Keltec, because apparently most other weapons manufacturers stopped existing.

[eager spire]

A pistol that shoots .22lr, btw

[next onyx]

They most likely wanted to bring those guns in because they're the most alien.

[low timber]

Imagine Way you posting a pic of a KelTec gun and Alex seeing it without the context and it’s a gun coming in S4 so he panics

[next onyx]

"OH NO WHERE DID YOU FIND THAT"

[low timber]

Let’s go to their site and get all the Bullpup designs

[eager spire]

Alex just scrolls through KelTec's website and points at a gun and is like "That one."

[next onyx]

I have a good idea what's coming for a season 4 gun but I'm going to wait.

[low timber]

Imagine a Gyrojet gun

[next onyx]

Borderlands style?

[low timber]

Dunno, haven’t played

[next onyx]

In BL2 Torque assault rifles could shot mini rockets.

[mental delta]

Which gun ?

[next onyx]

I don't know.

But considering the direction they're taking.

[mental delta]

You said you had an idea

[next onyx]

Oh that's true but I don't know, It could be many different things, Ficticious in nature.

[mental delta]

Which guns do you think it could be

Give example please

[marsh saddle]

Anyone here want to do AI conquest?

[marsh saddle]

yo wanna do AI conquest soon?

[mental delta]

What ?

AI conquest ?

[marsh saddle]

Sorry looking for more to play with. Lol. Solo/coop conquest. It's intense and fun

[mental delta]

It's ok, what are the server's settings and is it open all day long ?

[marsh saddle]

It's regular servers. When I'm out of this game I'll try and see more lol. I'm sorry I just started playing yesterday so I'm still new lol. My origin ID is Legoboy328, I play PC

[mental delta]

Ho you mean you server stays active when you leave your own lobby ?

[marsh saddle]

Yes. It's under conquest Solo/Coop under conquest mode.

[mental delta]

Well if you give me a link/name/code for your server I would like to give it a try later today

[marsh saddle]

It's regular servers, not under the browser. It's under conquest from main menu. It's really fun. After this game wanna play?

[mental delta]

Ha I understand lol you mean premade conquest solo/coop with bots gamemode

Well I can't play rn but I could in a few hours that's why I hope it was persistent server

[marsh saddle]

Yes. Everything you get in that mode though counts for regular XP and weapon kills. idk about challenges

[mental delta]

You are new to the game ? I can explain if you want

[marsh saddle]

Gladly lol. I just started yesterday and need all the help I can get. Coming from BF4 lol

[mental delta]

Yeah BF4 was great and this game is a little bit different

Well in conquest solo/coop you can level up your weapons and grind for XP to get weapons, attachments and cosmetics but XP is capped which means each game there's a maximum amount of XP you can get

You can't complete battle pass missions in solo but you can complete missions to get vault weapons

[quaint vector]

Double XP weekend today.?

It should be today, in 45 Minutes

[mental delta]

Does it work in solo ?

[quaint vector]

Yes, but you will still have less XP's than normal Full XP Server

[mental delta]

Better to do it in MP with battle pass missions

[quaint vector]

Yup

[arctic grove]

Crabman you’re boin worthy

[marsh saddle]

wanna play?

[mental delta]

Not now sorry, later in the day maybe

[mental delta]

What do you mean ?

[frail sparrow]

A gun that yeets tornadoes

?*

looking for ppl to hang out with tbh

[marsh saddle]

Thanks, I didn't see that lol

[knotty charm]

Is it still possible to get t1 in bots ?

[quaint vector]

No problem, head over there and you will find teammates.

[marsh saddle]

I will. Thanks!

[marsh saddle]

Yes

[marsh saddle]

Sorry lol I literally just started playing yesterday

[quaint vector]

No, it was not possible like in 2 days after release

[wet elbow]

Hello, english is not my native language, I am sorry for my bad grammar. I have a few questions:

1. Is there a way to lock FPS separately for main menu and game itself? For example in the main menu it should be 60, while playing - equal to my refresh rate. I did not find an option to lock fps in the game menu, but maybe there is some console command or so. If i use external programs like Nvidia control panel to lock fps, does it break the game?
2. There is a console command WorldRender.LightTileCsPathEnable 0, it does something with render and boost your fps (10-20 in my case). Is there any others commands,that give some advantage?
3. Is there a way to throw a grenade immediately in the direction I am pointing to by pressing "G" once?
4. I had a high CPU load, i found some instructions in the web and created user.cfg
   These for six-core processor. It lowered it to 60-75.
   Thread.ProcessorCount 6
   Thread.MaxProcessorCount 6
   Thread.MinFreeProcessorCount 0
   Thread.JobThreadPriority 0
   GstRender.Thread.MaxProcessorCount 12
   Do i need to add/remove any command in the list?
   Thanks

[knotty charm]

I don’t get why they removed it … and I do get it .. but why not make it so u only can get t1 on hardest difficulty

[quaint vector]

People were abusing it. It makes sense to not having Full Progression in Solo with AI's IMO 👀

[knotty charm]

Yea I know 😂

I got the bsv t1 and almost m5a3 but the grind is so hard 😅

[marsh saddle]

You seem like a pretty cool mod lol. Thanks for not immediately shutting my shit down when I posted in the wrong channel

[quaint vector]

Just doing what I have to do.

[remote kiln]

1: no this isn't possible, the menu framerate is capped so that it doesn't waste power, it's done in engine so it can't be unlocked
2: don't use commands in-game, they are engine edits
4: the game will auto scale with core counts, do not edit the cfg for this, it is done by itself

[mossy badge]

Windows man there is a nice cat video I posted can you tell me what happened to him 🤔

#general

[idle trail]

Do you guys know if platoons have been deleted from the side tab ? I logged into bf v and noticed it was gone ? Or it could've been an error my end?

PS5 btw

[shy latch]

for the point number 3, yes there is an option somewhere, now I don't remember the exact location but actually I'm using that option that will throw the nade instead of keeping in the hand (could be under general or mouse/keyboard, just take a deep look)

[arctic grove]

morning all

[astral quiver]

the cpu usage is definitely bugged out, there is no reason to be using 80% of a 13th gen i5 with a 3060ti

[remote kiln]

yes there is lol

its called core scaling

[astral quiver]

what's that, as a tldr?

[remote kiln]

the game will use whatever core allocation is available to it in order to maximise throughput

done by any game which relies on computation via the processor

[arctic grove]

wait double xp weekend?

[astral quiver]

ok but i'd assume most of the computation happens for the graphics right? why isn't it using my gpu

[remote kiln]

incorrect

battlefield uses the processor much more heavily

frostbite is the reverse

and because youve got a 3060ti, not exactly the pinnacle of performance

[astral quiver]

i mean, it runs most games on ultra at 1440p at around 80-100 fps

[silk surge]

For once I'm glad that I'm on console. The PS5 version of 2042 has ran as smooth as butter since launch with a few exceptions that were solved very early on.

[astral quiver]

and cpu usage is 50-60% tops most of the time

my computer starts gasping for air the moment i fire up bf2042

[remote kiln]

because those games arent similar lol

[astral quiver]

so, battlefield doesn't have a high cpu usage issue?

it's really how it's intended to happen?

[remote kiln]

correct

[silk surge]

There was this one issue where the game would freeze for roughly 3 seconds every time the rocket exploded on Orbital.

[remote kiln]

its intended, entirely normal, and good for users

[astral quiver]

good for users, not my processors lifetime :'>

[remote kiln]

i dont think you understand how processors work

that usage number means nothing in regards to how long its going to last lol

[arctic grove]

i sometimes get a closed game issue after a match is ended i thought it was crashing at first but nope the game just closes

[astral quiver]

so a cpu that hasn't been used at all, ever is going to last the same as the same cpu under usage for years?

[remote kiln]

is acknowledged in the bug forums

[remote kiln]

yes

theres going to be no difference

[arctic grove]

ah so its a bug np

[astral quiver]

what determines the lifetime of a cpu then

[remote kiln]

there is no such thing as a "lifetime of a CPU"

they run indefinitely

[astral quiver]

amazing piece of technology to have 0 wear-and-tear

[remote kiln]

well thats kinda why they were designed

a defunct processor is a useless processor

[arctic grove]

i realllllyyyyy hope for double xp weekend that will help me a lot lol

still grinding to 53

[remote kiln]

i dont (think?) there is

the last was on the 2nd, hasnt been any announcement

[arctic grove]

i missed the one on the 2nd

darn

well hopefully there will be

[astral quiver]

is coop faster for xp than normal games

even if it's halved or smt

[remote kiln]

its not

[astral quiver]

hm

[low timber]

Well? Was your prediction correct?

[arctic grove]

Hello

[still vault]

I don't expect anything to appear today. It's not the holidays anymore and we just had a bunch.

[solar tinsel]

Yeah I don't see a need for another imminent 2XP weekend. *Maybe *they'll do one the final week of the season or something

We've already had 3 this season, not to mention 2XP boosters in the Battle Pass this time around

[sharp marten]

You’re right

[solar tinsel]

PLUS the season is 2 weeks longer 🙂

[sharp marten]

We need a triple Xp

[solar tinsel]

why stop there though

[sharp marten]

You’re right tho

Why stop there

[solar tinsel]

Ya know for the S ranks, I wish they introduced slightly different visual treatments at certain intervals (like maybe every 50 or 100) - and then adopted a little something from BF2: where in order to enter the next set of 50, you must have met certain conditions

[knotty charm]

This bf has to be the biggest shit stain in the universe of bf it’s impossible to play breakthrough thanks to having no tanks as def and it’s impossible to kill thanx to noobtubes 👍👍👍 fking amazing job

[sharp marten]

Nah I’d say 2042 is pretty good

[solar tinsel]

Like to hit S100, you need your XP per usual, but then something like: T5 masteries on up to X weapons

[knotty charm]

👍

[solar tinsel]

I mean it's still pretty bad for a BF game, or rather the potential of one. That said, it's still Battlefield and still fun in its own way. and thankfully has gotten better

at most I'll say it's average now

[knotty charm]

Yea there beginning but this game at the time is a shame

[solar tinsel]

I can simultaneously have fun and understand it has been one of BF's weakest entries

[dusk forum]

What is XP even for tbh

I’m being serious

[spiral folio]

Have you tried increasing your skill?

[dusk forum]

The moment you unlock the NTW it’s useless

[solar tinsel]

Advances your player level. Also, earns you BP points in increments

[dusk forum]

This isn’t like BF4 where there’s xp for shit

[upbeat sand]

The game still has the battlefield feeling that other games done

[dusk forum]

Player level is just a flex
It’s easier to do challanges

[solar tinsel]

I agree!

[spiral folio]

NTW is the biggest disappointment in a game ive had recently

Using the NTW for a while did make me better at other rifles. Cause its so bad you have to try 10x as hard

[dusk forum]

Season 3 theme goes hard tbh

[spiral folio]

If they gave it HE rounds or other stuff it could serve a unique role. But as it is now its a big rifle with tiny damage

[solar tinsel]

NTW is pretty good, it's just not a standard "sniper rifle"

[arctic grove]

Is it really a battlefield tho when we compare it to 4?
Yeah, it's getting somewhat better Yada Yada but it's just a mass of something thrown together and hoping for it going to be above average. Even minimum wage workers do more than dice on dice game...

[solar tinsel]

if you treat it as such, you're gonna have a hard time

[upbeat sand]

I like how Hildur makes a new theme matching the map and setting

It really lets the game feel new

[spiral folio]

If youre sniping infantry the dxr is way better

[dusk forum]

I litteeelt just listened to that for like, 50 minutes straight

[spiral folio]

If youre going for vehicle kills the rail is better

[dusk forum]

Rorsch is a 1 one headshot

So it’s both a good sniper and vehicle damaged

[solar tinsel]

I will concede that BF4 had a worst launch than 2042, when it comes to stability of game and servers. That said, I would say the volume and quality of content (weapons, attachments, maps, etc.) was much better in 4

[arctic grove]

💯

[spiral folio]

The railgun you can mount a 4x and plug shots into vehicles and air especially

The ntw is 200% ass at shooting air

[solar tinsel]

I think Hildur is an amazing composer, I just think she wasn't the right hire for the job. Her work is more indicative of cinema, and I think for a MP-only game, it didn't fit quite as well

[arctic grove]

We will see how the game feels when this somewhat of a class system gets implemented

[spiral folio]

Rip

[upbeat sand]

Game definitely got saved by dice LA but the content itself was a bit it or miss with a lot of reskins of guns and med maps

[solar tinsel]

Yeah, 3.2 is going to be the biggest update ever for the game. I dont even know if folks fully realize the impacting changes it will have

[robust bough]

does anyone here have a Mackay/Angel picture for a BF2042-related edit I was gonna do

[spiral folio]

Need to set up a hotkey askin for ammo

[arctic grove]

I agree even battle for or of nordvik felt just meh

[arctic grove]

Idk if it will have any because rn there's barely teamplay

[upbeat sand]

New modes being made in portal editor is a bit limited

[solar tinsel]

To be honest I'd rather have a few guns that overlap in stats, if they have unique sounds and animations. Part of guns in FPS games IMO is not just how they play, but their unique aesthetic and people being drawn to certain ones

[arctic grove]

Right

[solar tinsel]

The vehicle meta I think will change substantially. I think (and hope) ground armor will be powerful again

[spiral folio]

They need a better scoring system cause the scoreboard in 2042 is garbage

[upbeat sand]

I was excited to play chain link before realising it's just a portal mode

[spiral folio]

Otherwise it wont matter how much they shackle people

You cant force teamplay to exist

You just incentivize people to do it

[arctic grove]

🤞

[spiral folio]

Xp doesnt work
Cause xp doesnt change scoreboard

Your average simple player will judge how good theyre doing by whether they are on the scoreboard

[solar tinsel]

I don't really know if XP is needed in the scoreboard. That said, I could see value in turning Revives to "Team Actions" (which was a BF2/2142 stat)

[spiral folio]

All other battlefields ranked by score

[arctic grove]

Lol idc about scoreboard I play to kill time and have fun

[solar tinsel]

and then allow Resupply, Heal, Revive, Repair to allow for ranking in that

[spiral folio]

2042 is just
Kills x2
Flags x3
Assists x1
Revives x1

That's it.

[slim hound]

That would be good

[knotty charm]

Forr this to work make Rorsch a full auto only and rebalance the guns otherwise it wil always be the same

[spiral folio]

Every thing else you do that gives xp
Nothin for score

[solar tinsel]

yeah. You'd probably have to change the value of it, because 1 pt for each resupplr or heal may be a bit excessive. But still, could be good. Might have to be something like 0.25pts per repair, resupply, heal

[spiral folio]

So things that obviously help a team like ammo, deployment beacons, smoke, you name it.. 0 points

[arctic grove]

Quite accurate 😆

Time to eat laters

[spiral folio]

My favorite example is sniping out 5 spawn beacons while idiot allies rush the flag and keep dying. You get 0 they get 3x for the flag and 2x for each of the kills they died getting

[solar tinsel]

In all fairness though, there does need to be a cutoff somewhere. We can't start putting control panels claimed as a score factor even if it does disrupt the other team 😆

[spiral folio]

Fun fact
There actually doesnt

Cause literally every single bf game before went by xp

This is the odd one out

And...
Wouldnt you know

Its not working

Nut nah lets tey eeeeveerything exept the score. "Hmm people arent giving ammo...what iiif we.. force people to use classes so feweer people csn carry ammo" "butwait"

Shawn of the dead
"Youre exacerbating the situation"

[solar tinsel]

IMO The reason why ammo has been devalued is not because of its score board incentivization, but rather, the fact that everyone can carry 3 ammo types

unless you're using a vault wep

[spiral folio]

Cause itd be hard to give the same ammo values as any other gun -cough-

Like dont model new mags. Just... copy paste some data. Beep bop boop

[solar tinsel]

haha I literally said the same thing last night

wholeheartedly agree

just mod the stats, there you go. boom, content

[spiral folio]

Portal weps will be massively devalued when people cant carry their own ammo

At least like a regular sniper can carry like some high cap mags and others to increase net-load

[solar tinsel]

then again, I AM happy with the shift towards not everyone being able to carry ammo ha

[spiral folio]

Ill go railgun on lis cause it has capacity but it devours em fast. And then I'll use lis rockets til i find ammo (never will)

Bf5 at least had ammo dumps

This will be bf1 all over again

[solar tinsel]

I honestly feel it isn't all that hard to find ammo carrying players, then again if you're isolated a bit, sure its gonna be harder

thats kind of the risk of not being near teammates

[spiral folio]

"Ammo? Anyone... where...i need ammo"
"Just redeploy"
"You first... so youll spawn in back and give me ammo"

Most players like in bf1 when they need ammo theyll put one down. For themselves. Then when they accidentslly see theyre giving other people ammo, it reminds then to move their box

It will benefit the frontline sprayers who dont live long enough to run out or close range guys that can get dropped ammo

They wont notice a change

Like how they dont notice their 1:2 ratios while they suicide flags

[upbeat sand]

Bfv definitely had some of the best team play stuff

And being also pick up health and amo from the back of allies without needing them to give you a box or patch makes it easier to play

[solar tinsel]

yeah thats a good mechanic

[spiral folio]

If 2042 adds ammo dumps so you can reliably get ammo itd be nice but they wont

[upbeat sand]

Plus the medic having no gadgets that can damage or kill makes it so players are going to play passively instead of just an assault

[spiral folio]

I mean they have a gun

[upbeat sand]

But that dosent stop people from soloing in bfv medics does it

Freaking type 2a

[spiral folio]

It's not frigin hacksaw ridge

[wide shore]

Type 2A, type 2 shmay. MP40 is where the kings played

[sharp marten]

Yeah no I totally agree I’m just glad it’s improving a lot

[upbeat sand]

Until you check the scoreboard going 80-3 while having 0 revives

[sharp marten]

@wide shore how you feelin homie?

[wide shore]

A lot better.

[sharp marten]

That’s good homie I’m glad

[wide shore]

[wide shore]

I’ve never been a big fan of super fast firing SMGs anyway

Or really super fast firing guns in general

Except the MG42

[upbeat sand]

The gold plated is interestingly hard

[wide shore]

Gold plated on what?

[spiral folio]

Mg42 with short belts and a jinroh barrel handle

[wide shore]

The MG42?

Oh hell no. 200 round belt ftw

[upbeat sand]

Just overall

[wide shore]

Screw that constant reloading

[upbeat sand]

The first few are fine but then it gets into holy shi level

[spiral folio]

In jinroh they use these like 50 round belts with some kind of quickloading end to the belt

[upbeat sand]

Rsc> everything in bfv

[spiral folio]

Runescape classic

[upbeat sand]

Using the rsc in bfv also includes a 40+ min tutorial that is mandatory and goes through every mechanic one by one

[spiral folio]

I dont see how the 2002 runescape compares to a ww2 shooter though

[upbeat sand]

Tutorial be like

Click mouse to shoot
Left click to aim
Good job now try shooting while aiming
Good job now try shooting in hipfire
Good job now click 2 to switch to your secondary weapon
Imagine that but for 40 mins

It's the anti titanfall 2 tutorial

[spiral folio]

What..

[upbeat sand]

Cause titanfall 2 tutorial let you zip through if you knew how to

And this is the opposite

[spiral folio]

They used to do tutorials like that before when fps games were new

Bf5 had the optional training place

Id say entirely skipping it is faster

[arctic grove]

although I like the tutorial video in 1

[upbeat sand]

Nice detail how they added that extra opening cutscene and make the firing range work instead of just bf4 where they plop a bunch of shooting things on a map

And it being pretty much completely voiced

[arctic grove]

if 4 had bots

[spiral folio]

1 would be better with bots too like even if they were background

Like have a map where off the boundaries, bots have a battle alongside yours. And as your team gains, the bot battles share progress to make it just bigger feeling

[upbeat sand]

Yes

[dusk forum]

BF1 and V had wild intros

[solid imp]

Makes me want to create a portal mode which is basically normal conquest but capturing the sector spawns an MCOM near each of the two flags, acts like an Angel crate, usable only by team which owns the sector

[upbeat sand]

Vf1, bfv and 2042 have some of the best cinematics in gaming I'd say

[dusk forum]

2042s opening cinematic is fire

[upbeat sand]

Imagine if the UI and hud where set in the style of the intro

[spiral folio]

Yea like maybe on BT one of those crates lands as you take a sector

[chilly jacinth]

sounds like some star wars type dealio

[broken horizon]

update when

[spiral folio]

Never

[broken horizon]

nooooooooo

anti vehicle angel will be missed

[dusk forum]

F

I can’t wait for support Irish

I love his call outs for downed squad mates

“WE GOT A MAN DOWN! SHITS FUCKING BAD!”

[fluid spoke]

I cannot wait for fnb tonight

fnb is such an amazing addition to the game

[dusk forum]

I wish portal was as innovative lol

The uh, season 3 page might wanna be updated

I love the live battle of nordvik event

[spiral folio]

Fnb is?

[willow sky]

fr

boutta be a top tier specialist ong

[dusk forum]

Zain mans 5 seconds after Irish places down a shoot down (their now utterly crippled in playing)

https://tenor.com/view/walter-white-falling-fast-gif-18043850

skull

[spiral folio]

It'll be a lot of specialists that have weapons that regenerate ammo

Cause there'll be no ammo

[dusk forum]

I’m gojna miss

[willow sky]

honestly glad you can swap between mags at least

[dusk forum]

Being AT Falck

[willow sky]

though, i am curious on how angels crate will work now

[dusk forum]

Angel needs some sort of like

Change tbh

Compared to Falck he’s basically mid AF

[spiral folio]

They'll just blank out incompatible builds or something

[dusk forum]

I think he was fine at launch tbh

Now he just feels underwhelming compared to what falck brings to the table

[spiral folio]

I wonder if theyll give more alternate build options cause atm you cant do 2 of each class build

[dusk forum]

And the class update will make it worse tbh

[spiral folio]

Because atm theres no classes

So like 2 per class builds?

[dusk forum]

Their gonna like seprate loadouts into seprate classes

Yeah probaly

Maybe one for each specalist or some shit

[spiral folio]

Otherwise like angels crate is worthless

[willow sky]

If they gave angels crate the ability to swap between class gadgets, that would be good though

as in, their class

[spiral folio]

Either that or they make it just gadgets swap out

[dusk forum]

Angel should be able to restore specalist gadget ammo

[spiral folio]

Woo.

[dusk forum]

Let the crate do that

[spiral folio]

It's gonna be worse yea

[dusk forum]

This is not me trying to farm kills with Lis

[spiral folio]

And people are so dumb they asked for classes

[dusk forum]

Eh this feels like a good balance

I just wish we could run launchers not as engineers

[willow sky]

Dont classes give like, 1 perma equipment tho?

[spiral folio]

"Daaah i cant be a medic cuuse dwrs no classes"
You can be a medic now. Here. Take this med kit
"Its not dah same"

[willow sky]

engineers FINALLY running repair tool all the time is just godlike

[dusk forum]

Someting like that

[spiral folio]

Literallythesame

[dusk forum]

It’s just the same but afew things

Crawford is engineer and Irish is support (probaly gonna happen either way tbh)

Every class specialized with a certain kind of gun

[spiral folio]

More rules more restrictions and punishment for using incorrect alignment weapons

[willow sky]

Mackay users with medpen running plates 😳

[dusk forum]

You’re gonna have 3 fucking abilities now

[clever marlin]

Honestly

[dusk forum]

Also Zain is gojna be even more busted lol

[spiral folio]

Id rather have an ammo box

[dusk forum]

Passive regeneration AND a med pen lol

[willow sky]

ikr

[clever marlin]

I think anyone with the support role should be able to pickup with armor

Not just Irish

[dusk forum]

And armor plates

[clever marlin]

No,

I mean like you revive with 50 hp and 10 armor

[willow sky]

Oh yeah, they arent removing irish's veteran trait right?

[dusk forum]

They are

[willow sky]

oh

[dusk forum]

He’s getting crawfords trait

[willow sky]

rip

[dusk forum]

And he’s getting someting entirely new

[willow sky]

thought he would be bussin

[dusk forum]

Suprised their giving Crawford a new trait and not just Irish’s

[clever marlin]

Honestly irishes trait is so underrated

[dusk forum]

I mean Irish is more of a defense player anyways

[clever marlin]

Armor is so underutilized in this game

[dusk forum]

I mean no shit

You either play as Irish or waste a gadget slot

I’d rather have a recoilles then some armor

[willow sky]

what would u run for lis in the clas s update?

what were engineers also getting again

uhhh

[dusk forum]

Assuming she’s still restricted by not having launchers

I’d run1

Oh fuck uh

[willow sky]

yeah im assuming

[granite island]

Have they revealed what day is the rework for breakaway coming out

[dusk forum]

There’s nothing good shit

[granite island]

Is it next week

[dusk forum]

Uhh…

[willow sky]

mines? lmao

[dusk forum]

AT mines or an EOD honestly

Yeah

[willow sky]

wait who has claymores

[dusk forum]

Lis is gonna be fucked in terms of gadget choices

[willow sky]

suport?

[dusk forum]

Assualt, Suppoet

[willow sky]

oh

[dusk forum]

And recon

[willow sky]

eh

OH

spicy

[dusk forum]

Lis is gonna be weird considering she can’t use half of engineers gadgets

[willow sky]

yeah

[dusk forum]

It’s either EOD or AT

[spiral folio]

Yea but she will have ammo

[dusk forum]

And quite frankly, both suck lol

[willow sky]

AT aint so bad

[dusk forum]

AT mines are useless and the EOD bot is only good for meleeing

[spiral folio]

Once nobody has ammo boxes the rocket regeneration will be better

[dusk forum]

I have like 100 hours in game and I died only once from a mine

[willow sky]

me accidently rushing towards a point with recon and for a split second see a mine

gg

[dusk forum]

Trolled

[willow sky]

could be worse

[dusk forum]

Zain is gonna make infantry his bitch

[willow sky]

On defense BT its surprisngly god

good*

[willow sky]

zain 2 gud

[dusk forum]

DICE littearly just made an Egyptian doom slayer lol

Dudes gonna have
-air burst launcher that fucks up infantry
-immediate healing on kill
-med pens
-armor plates

[royal trail]

did i just lose control of my aim or did they add like random spread to m416 similar to bf4 but here in 2042

[dusk forum]

They need to add 2042 attachments to portal guns tbh

Like the portal guns aren’t bad

But the second you add attachments to 2042 guns ther become mid

I’m still probaly gonna grind the M16 and 416 out for mastery however

Because uh

GFL broke me

I’m still confused about Rao tbh

Like

I know why he isn’t enginner but at the same time he perfectly fits enginner

Tbh I’m just glad he won’t have stringers any more

Because shit was wild

[spiral folio]

Because they will not give recon a good specialist

Next recon will be like
"He has claws to attack vehicles with"
Ok thats neat by why a recon

"Cause f u thats why"

[dusk forum]

Shit the next specalist IS gonna be recon….

Damn

It’s gonna be interesting seeing what they do

[broken horizon]

more mini map spottings

[dusk forum]

Blackburn for next specalist

[spiral folio]

I have literally no hope it'll be good

Paeiek is close range wallhax
Catsper close range drone
Ragu close range vehicle hax

[dusk forum]

Remember when everyone saw paik in the specialist trailer and went

[spiral folio]

What other mostly useless close range thing can they do

[dusk forum]

“What the fuck”

[spiral folio]

Raos hack thing seems more engineer-ly than recon

It even sounds more like actual engineering than combat engineering

[dusk forum]

It works and pings recon

It’s just

[magic bloom]

He would be older than falck lmao

[dusk forum]

EVER SO GOOD at screwing which vehicles

[dusk forum]

Irish is like, 60

[magic bloom]

Yeah and I think Blackburn is older than Irish

[dusk forum]

Retirement home squad
Blackburn, falck, irish, and Borris

[magic bloom]

They should add recker too

[dusk forum]

Add Hannah
She somehow survived blowing up a destroyer

[magic bloom]

Bro would be unstoppable at killing the Russians and the Chinese

[dusk forum]

You ever hear the theory recker Is oz

[spiral folio]

See. Save for retirement or youll end up drafted in some crazy war as a mercenary

[magic bloom]

No

[dusk forum]

Yeah when exodus came out people thought recker was oz which

Alright

[magic bloom]

It doesn’t make sense though

Cause recker and Irish were friends why would he almost have Irish killed

[chilly jacinth]

because lore

[low timber]

Irish is 54

[arctic grove]

there's a lore why pack didn't appear in the game

?

[low timber]

PAC?

Yes

He died in the Exodus short film

[arctic grove]

also

[sharp marten]

I mean it’s not out of the realm of possibilities that Recker is Oz

[low timber]

I’m hoping for Oz to be Nick Mendoza

[arctic grove]

I realize a while ago that the VA for pac is also in dead rising 3

[sharp marten]

I mean don’t you find or oddly suspicious that we haven’t seen recker yet?

[dusk forum]

Because he’s either
Fucking dead
Maybe a new specialist (doubt it)
Another major character
Not here

[arctic grove]

did you know you can go third person in the campaign?

[magic bloom]

Yes I do but why would recker pretty much try to kill his friends

[low timber]

I doubt we’ll see any US specialists as we already have Irish

[magic bloom]

It makes no sense cause he in the end got pac killed and almost killed Irish’s son

Which almost killed Irish

[dusk forum]

I was gonna say MacKay then remember he’d Canadian

[arctic grove]

imagine if the option where you can sacrifice yourself instead of Hannah or Irish

[dusk forum]

Canada is just America but French so it still counts

[magic bloom]

Hannah wasn’t even that good of a character it wasn’t even a question she got sacrificed for me

[sharp marten]

He could be apart of another faction

[magic bloom]

I only did it for Irish cause i needed my 249

[sharp marten]

He could be apart of the US faction

[arctic grove]

which campaign is worse, four or Hardline?

[dusk forum]

One is played by Micheal K Williams, the other is not

[willow sky]

why did they have to kill PAC smh

[sharp marten]

Hardline

[willow sky]

could've become a great specialist

im crying so hard

[magic bloom]

I like them both a lot

[arctic grove]

I don't like the collectible in Hardline

[magic bloom]

Exactly.

[arctic grove]

they are frustrating

[dusk forum]

It ain’t exactly tombstone squad, but it’s what we need

pain

[radiant prism]

4 IMO, hardline had a few redeeming qualities personally

[magic bloom]

Hardline soundtrack is still unbeaten

[arctic grove]

and the fact you need to launch battlelog to play the campaign

[low timber]

Woop woop

[arctic grove]

good Lord

[radiant prism]

Also

[arctic grove]

who the hell thought of that idea

[magic bloom]

Blasting that as the criminals while running from the cops was fuckin amazing

[radiant prism]

Those little intro cutscenes for Hardline that was like “Last time on hardline” use clips from your actual gameplay instead of anything prerecorded

Which is SO fucking cool

[low timber]

Really?

[radiant prism]

I think so yeah

[arctic grove]

way th foc

[low timber]

Huh

[magic bloom]

Yeah it did that

[arctic grove]

like does it feature your highlighted moments?

[magic bloom]

It was like a news report

[radiant prism]

Basically it would record your POV at certain plot-relevant moments and then put those into the cutscenes

[arctic grove]

like records me mowing down tons of enemies?

with cheats

[radiant prism]

Lmao

I mean maybe

[arctic grove]

also

I question the design choice in campaign

like no grenades

and extremely limited ammo

[radiant prism]

The arrest option was weird too

But made sense

[arctic grove]

why can you still arrest people if you're not a cop anymore

[radiant prism]

I just remember kinda being bored after a while

[arctic grove]

[radiant prism]

I’m like

[arctic grove]

might as well eliminate them instead

[magic bloom]

I think that was meant as like taking them hostage

[arctic grove]

[radiant prism]

“Ok I’m playing a BF game, I want shoot stuff…but also it gives me the option to not kill so maybe I should do that?”

[arctic grove]

or no ammo

[radiant prism]

That’s true

[arctic grove]

having limited ammo in a battlefield game does not work

[radiant prism]

Although I have to give credit in the last mission to that one scene with the heli when you come through the window in front of all those heavy guys lol

[dusk forum]

BFV flashbacks

[arctic grove]

wait they pulled that shit again?

[dusk forum]

Yeah attrition system

[arctic grove]

in V campaign?

[dusk forum]

Limited health regen, limited ammo

No, multiplayer

[arctic grove]

oh

[dusk forum]

No idea for camapign because I only played the last tiger

[arctic grove]

well I didn't explore the game that much

so idk much

[radiant prism]

https://youtu.be/nJvq-xequ80

Best part of Hardlines campaign

Attrition got nerfed and really wasn’t that bad on the ammo front

[quiet shell]

This shit was so goofy

[dusk forum]

Eh true

[arctic grove]

hardline campaign gave me aneurysm

[dusk forum]

Still annoying though

[arctic grove]

so I cheated

[dusk forum]

Brug

[arctic grove]

I swear to God

[quiet shell]

"Why is there 45 million for collateral in our budget!?"
"Helicopters crash into buildings when we arrest people"

[dusk forum]

It’s that bad?

[arctic grove]

I cannot tolerate limited ammo in hardline

[dusk forum]

I love police having fucking

[arctic grove]

and enemies are usually spongey

[radiant prism]

I was dying laughing after that scene

[dusk forum]

Armored vehicles with mini guns

[radiant prism]

Average US police department (real)

[arctic grove]

the only way to take out the chopper is rocket pick up

[chilly jacinth]

just snipe the pilot

[dusk forum]

What the fuck did I just watch

[arctic grove]

if they can stand still

[dusk forum]

Il being serious that was some

[spiral folio]

Nobody would want to play like a realistic swat game

[dusk forum]

Micheal bay shit

[radiant prism]

The best part of Hardline

That’s what

Hardline was definitely meant to be a bit more over the top

[dusk forum]

Fucking

[arctic grove]

too bad there's only one server

[lilac dust]

https://twitter.com/Battlefield/status/1613935900735557632

[radiant prism]

Like it clearly had fun with that scene

[dusk forum]

Sees fully armed group of SWAT
“Freeze?”

[spiral folio]

If it was realistic most of em would be like negotiations while the sniper gets in place

[dusk forum]

Lamo

[spiral folio]

1 shot fired
The rest of the game is wrapup while the sniper files the shots fired paperwork

[dusk forum]

Sundance is so rediculous

Like

I’m not complaining but what

[radiant prism]

Idk how people do that

[dusk forum]

Bro has a jet pack not a fucking wing suit

[dusk forum]

Same

I just crash as Sundance

[radiant prism]

I’ve recently started playing Sundance

[dusk forum]

My coolest move was wingsurijg to a tank and blowing it up with C5

And then dying right after

[radiant prism]

People are always like “OMG Sundance is so stupid” and then I use them and just fly out of bounds and can’t turn around in time and die

[dusk forum]

Same

I’ve been using dozer abit

[radiant prism]

The grenade belt is fun to use though

YES

love dozer

My first T1

[dusk forum]

Man fucks on smaller based maps

The liquidator rerun they did for portal he was GOAT lol

Just ran him

[radiant prism]

Nice lol

Dozer is just fun in general

[dusk forum]

I’ve also finally understood how to play Zain

[radiant prism]

Zain is one of my favorite specialists rn

So fun to use

[dusk forum]

Man’s gonna make infantry conquest his bitch with the assualt rework

[radiant prism]

He already does

If you know how to use him he makes anything his bitch

until i stealth heli comes by

[dusk forum]

This is why you use Lis

[chilly jacinth]

dropping bombs on you

[radiant prism]

Meh

Stealth helis are overrated

Easy to predict once you know they’re around

[clever marlin]

Nah mate, the little bird is overrated

[dusk forum]

Stealth helis are good when

Every ace combat protagonist isn’t in a jet

[radiant prism]

When no one counters them

[radiant prism]

<<So, have you found a reason to fight yet, buddy?>>

spanish guitar

[chilly jacinth]

thankfully people have gotten better at killing stealth helis

[radiant prism]

Here’s the thing about air vehicles in BF

Everyone loves to bitch about them

No one wants to take the time to actually counter them

[dusk forum]

“Man I like this new stealth- why do I hear Latin?”

[radiant prism]

WomanSlayer69 has arrived

[dusk forum]

Average jet player:

[radiant prism]

I miss flying jets

I need to get back into that

People say jets are weak

I made them rethink that

[dusk forum]

Eh

I run helicopters or infantry tbh

I have been using the Tor however

Because

[low timber]

Vulcan is weak (Crawford)

[dusk forum]

trolling

[dusk forum]

Bri’ish man needs a buff

Give him the ability to use acid attacks

[low timber]

Just used him in Stranded BT and only got 8 points to his mastery

[dusk forum]

Lamo

[radiant prism]

There’s no way to make people think Crawford isn’t weak, because he is. Lol

[low timber]

Oh, looks like it’s stranded again lol

Gonna be maining him after v3.2 for the Javelin though

[radiant prism]

Problem is it’s hard to buff Crawford without making him overpowered

[low timber]

As he’s the only one not in T1 for me

[low timber]

The turret is way too easy to destroy for starters

[grave prism]

its nice that they made crawford have a peeping hole people just shoot him through very easily

[dusk forum]

10/10

[low timber]

And to kill him with a headshot

[radiant prism]

I think I had a dream last night about sniping a Crawford lol

[dusk forum]

It’s a good thing BF logic triumphs all

I find it weird you can survive being brutally hit with a railgun shell

And still live

But you fucking get run over, nah you’re dead

Goodbye

[radiant prism]

I mean you can take a 7.62 round to the head and walk it off

[dusk forum]

True

GFL logic and BF logic are amazing, 10/10

[radiant prism]

Balance and realism are two very different things

[dusk forum]

Yes, I can take a fucking tank shell, you can’t?

[radiant prism]

(Real)

[dusk forum]

“Two is one and one is none”-Zain explaing why he needs med pens and armor plates when he already has one of the best traits in the game:

[spiral folio]

One balance that is really stupid is the p125s ammo capacity

[dusk forum]

I wanna meet the guy at DICE who said

[spiral folio]

Like its gonna be op with 10 more shots

[dusk forum]

“Fuck it, P90 sidearm.”

[oak sedge]

P51 is a real thing and it's as ridiculous in real life as it is in 2042

[dusk forum]

I know

But isn’t that semi?

[oak sedge]

I think its called something else IRL though

[dusk forum]

Not full auto?

[spiral folio]

The real one isnt

[oak sedge]

Yeah, you're right

[spiral folio]

Military version

[dusk forum]

It’s the PF50 IRLZ

Kel tec gun

[oak sedge]

You're right mb

[spiral folio]

The pf51 irl is the p50 pistol

[dusk forum]

Yeah

[spiral folio]

And as far as i know there isnt a full auto

[dusk forum]

Because that would be stupid

But the no pats are built different

[spiral folio]

Keltec doesnt do military firearms yetttt

[dusk forum]

Kel tec just

Takes cocaine

[spiral folio]

Yea

[oak sedge]

Kel Tec prides themselves on making meme weapins

Weapons*

[dusk forum]

That’s all I can say

Kel tec’s next invention, the mini nuke.

Nordvik is just Kel tec lol

[chilly jacinth]

mini nukes are a thing already

[dusk forum]

Fucking, bull pup sidearm

[chilly jacinth]

also a thing already

[dusk forum]

Dual barrel semi auto back loaded shotgun

[spiral folio]

Keltec looks at a normal gun... goes
"Oh but why cant we... put a p90 mag... in the middle. And make the barrel and receiver flip up"
"W... why tho"
"Well otherwise i cant fit it in the grip"

[oak sedge]

Kel Tec's next invention is a semi auto shotgun that lets you shoot all of the shells in the tube, but you have to manually eject them by pumping the action or working a lever. A semi auto shotgun that doesn't even have the benefits of semi auto

[dusk forum]

At least DICE put the decency to not have a grip

[oak sedge]

That eill be 5000 dollars

[dusk forum]

Although it should lol

[spiral folio]

I want a lever action rifle that takes p90 mags

[dusk forum]

Lamo

There’s a magazine fed lever action 9mm

[spiral folio]

Yea but you cant stack pointy rounds in a tube

[dusk forum]

True

[wild marlin]

new class system gonna b so cringe 😢

[dusk forum]

I hope S4 has some more future weapons

Actully what do you think the color scheme for 4 is gonna he

We’ve had yellow/gold, red, and light blue

[wild marlin]

purple

[pastel loom]

welcome to battlefield

[dusk forum]

I bet it’ll be like green or some shit

[spiral folio]

Hexagon color

[dusk forum]

We first need the damn class update

But then again S3 ends in what, 4 weeks?

[wild marlin]

class update as it stands is pretty cringe

[dusk forum]

It’s not even out

[wild marlin]

but we know whats coming

[dusk forum]

And we don’t know how it’ll play

[wild marlin]

not hard to make guesstimations

[dusk forum]

We don’t even know when it’s RELEASING

[wild marlin]

its releasing end of this month

thats what they said

[oak sedge]

When are they going to add hover tanks and mechs so it can actually be close to 2142

And snow

[hybrid totem]

That's the next game

[oak sedge]

Damn it DICE you've been teasing us with a return to the future for the last decade

[wild marlin]

we could get exosuits perhaps

like advanced warfare

[hybrid totem]

ooh infantry sized vehicles

[oak sedge]

I think that would be a really neat idea if it was a vehicle and not just a thing everyone has

Well, a "vehicle"

[wild marlin]

it should be a field pickup item

[hybrid totem]

Iron Man suits

[wild marlin]

^

but no this class system is gonna b pretty cringe

[hybrid totem]

As a vehicle main, it won't change much

[wild marlin]

yeah but vehicle players arent the majority of the game :/

[hybrid totem]

Agreed, there's not nearly enough vehicles

[wild marlin]

well i dont think the amount of vehicles is bad, in fact more vehicles would make the situation worse

the issue is the lack of responses infantry has to vehicles

[hybrid totem]

lack of responses?

Everyone and their mother has a rocket launcher

[wild marlin]

not anymore after next update

its literally gonna be only lis and crawford

running launchers

[hybrid totem]

Maybe it will make everything better

Nah it'll just make people use the other equipment

sundance c4 will make a comeback

[wild marlin]

what comeback, its already the default for taking out unsuspecting vehicles

[oak sedge]

Sundance C4 meta returning is going to be so painful even if I do enjoy having the class system

[spiral folio]

Ammo box restrictions. If youve played bf1 itll be like that
"Anyone ammo?"
"Munesheeoons ubvrecht!"

X40

[wild marlin]

thats fine imo, it literally makes players diversify their squads

[spiral folio]

It wont

[wild marlin]

and you dont just have a full squad of mackays running around

[spiral folio]

Didnt in 1 didnt in 5

Never has never will

[hybrid totem]

Whole squad should get xp bonus if they are different specialists

Just, blanket bonus for diversity

[spiral folio]

All these starry eyed visions of classes clapping their hands and instantly sprouting teamwork

[wild marlin]

sure i guess everyone will just pick the canadian guy who can duel better than everyone else

such a recipe for success and longevity

[spiral folio]

Half the players wont notice a change cause they dont live long enough for it to matter

[wild marlin]

maybe the change isnt for them, its for the people who can make use of the tools theyre given

[spiral folio]

Anyone shooting over 100m will notice a lot less ammo

Might be more medics again for the close range attrition guys

Cause itll be a class not a character

[wild marlin]

irish and crawford swap makes alot of sense

[spiral folio]

I couldnt care less about recons getting a spawn beacon

Since also recons specialists all suck

[wild marlin]

they shouldn't have restricted spawn beacon to recon

stupid change

[spiral folio]

I forget what speecial thing engineers get

[wild marlin]

class gadget for recon should be soflam

[next onyx]

One thing I wanted to see on bf5 were archtypes.

That would of given us a much different game.

It's what specialists reminds me of.

[spiral folio]

Spawn beacons are best with people usually in the thick of things not "imma put down this beacon so i can get to mah snipin spot again"

[wild marlin]
