Currently, "persistent servers" are redundant - no reason at all to host a persistent server over a regular server.
In the absence of players, persistent servers are pretty much hidden - no one will search for the server manually using the buggy search function; they can just host their own server. If it's a friend or something - they could just host your game using the experience code
I'm just here with AI bots
Is the A-91 any good in All out warfare?
That’s the uh
Chinese bull pup rifht
its average
Yeah
Like all vault weapons
They can KILL, but their probaly not gonna kill as good as other guns
it might be better now that the recoil bug has been fixed
Still won’t stop me from using burst M16
Yeah that thing is pretty good
M16 has pretty solid range
I can still effectively kill a dude pretty far away
Burst is actully good tbh at the mid range agsinst like 1 or 2 guys
I haven’t used it that much I should probably start using it more often
Giggle switch set to maximum funnies still rains supreme however
I’m just doing it for the mastery challanges because something
I’m just using random weapons rn
M16 or rorsch is my go to
I plan to grind the 416 after
at the very least, it would be nice to have servers fill with bots with a minimum requirement of real players, just like in AoW
Suprised they haven’t added the M4 tbh
What are the chances of getting the secret reload on the m16a3?
i just want portal skins like the money spender i am 😔
Probaly small
Same
The whole XP restriction thing in this game is silly. There are so many great portal modes that have XP restriction because the rule editor has been used 🤦♂️
And people usually don't join these games because of the XP restrictions
Tier 1 M16 when
You mean the millionth zombies XP grind
God that would look sexy...and the m416 too
Lol not these
Im still waiting for an official bf2042 server with the bf3 and bc2 maps
Recoil bug has been fixed?
exodus conquest not cutting it every 3 weeks 😔
Wdym?
Pc Recoil bug was it patched?
Im on console :p
Pc problems lol
who notices the issue here
The boat, it doesn't exist in BF2042
Figured that was a hover dude
can you lot equip new 1942 weapons?
Yep
hell i cant
You played rendevouz mode?
Did you change classes?
yes
weird
Buckhorn Sights look weird on the 12g Automatic
Theyre more like guidelines anyway
It's not like if you aim the shots all march single file to the target
soo hows the new recoil treating you all is it better than before is this the one that Baranox was saying?
Download servers are slow today
That's quite the statement, especially if you are talking about all of them 😄
Steam, Epic, EA, Sony, Microsoft all serve 2042
microsoft is having issues
i had alot of clients calling in today saying they couldnt get stuff to work turns out microsoft servers
Guess I'll run the download while i work out or something
what's the best way to use boris's sentry gun, considering that it takes so long to actually start firing at an enemy
1.8 gb download is taking its time...
The best way to use it is not to
Put it directly on top of the enemy
I need it for the steam ach
Place it on the ground and hope for the best
I guess so
I mean I wanna tier 1 boris but I ain't suffering for that with how much they nerfed him into the ground
yeahh
Would it be interesting if you could remotely use the turret? Maybe too powerful but at the state it is now…
Preach
casper for the win
Already T1'ed Rao, working on the hard to T1 specialists now
Difference would be you don’t have to be in LOS to operate the turret, have a lower ROF but can auto spot for the team like Casper’s drone. Idk just spitballing since the turret itself is honestly not even anemic. It’s next to useless
a bit of a funny way to wield a shotgun, Mr. American
https://tenor.com/view/im-imnotlistening-notlistening-lalalalala-cant-gif-14244638
Deco being told there are other specialists
ye

been tryna t1 boris, shits a grind
I did Boris when he wasn't nerfed luckily
Im unlucky 😔
Then what do you have left?
personally i think the worst one is getting Dozers T1
I got it
I got him when there was a PvE zombies mode as featured 
ok im officially crying now
Dozer I mean
Got plenty to go around
Zain, Paik, Falck, Anghel easy
Lis T1 is slowly progressing.
fixed
12ga shotzooka
these aren't T1, ur playing the game wrong
Well the game keeps crashing after the update for some reason ? 
angels... decent
everyone seems to forget the loadout crate exists
and its essentially a better ammo box
It also wont be useful post class nerf
The moment he stopped dropping armor people dropped Angel
Not gonna say they’re right but meta Chasers be meta chasing
my only problem with the support class is that people often forget they can revive everyone
It’s why so many people spam Mackay and Sundance
mackay is overrated to crap
Medics forget they can revive people
sundance is a very situational specialist
Too busy destroying vehicles with mines to be support in grindy infantry battles
Get used to it cause its only getting worse post classes
which is weird because revives give the same score as kills
Arent revs x1
ended up getting more revives than kills and out ranked the top player in revives
people need to use smoke grenades more
Why. No points
you get assists
Did you ever figure your game out also @clever marlin ?
schools wifi is going brr right now
Its just an attaboi
So the matchmaking error wasn’t fixed in this update 
if i use more than 2mbps then it basically doesnt work
Xp past what lvl50 is just useless
this game uses like 6mbps
the what?
Matchmaking error
Matchmaking failed
[Some huge error number]
🌊
You matchmake but it instantly throws an error message which won’t go away without restarting the game or matchmaking into solo/co-op
Or other modes
EA replied to a topic on it and its just "yeaaa we know. Switch modes if it happens otherwise -shrug- jog on"
No fix
I don’t think I’ve ever seen that but I’ll keep that “fix” in mind
I use the solo/co-op to fix it, let the matchmaking timer go to 2 seconds and cancel and then matchmake on the mode I want
This is so janky.
Can't you just close the game entirely and restart?
But it’s still annoying that when I fix it and matchmaking I get a map I don’t want (discarded for example) I cancel matchmaking and then I get the error again, and the cycle repeats.
Or you can completely power down and unplug every component reassemble it and reboot from scratch to the same effect
Have not seen any so doesn't seem like a general issue with the game
But switching modes and quitting early also works
Znath or you can search for solo/co-op and then when the searching timer hits 00:02 cancel it and it’s fixed.
what issue
Usually I go
"Matchmaking failed! Take a drink" and close the game, flip off my monitor and start a different game
His Origin could be offline not allowing him to connect to online servers or he is on a high traffic time ISP provider with something like shared wifi to connect
That's not it cause it logs you in when you start the game. It would have to log you out of the game while youre running the game...
Then log you back in when you close the game
My advice take a sip of that juice box, relax. restart your game make sure your connection is stable and try again.
I wish i had my sip emoji
Or report the error close the game entirely and let the error lower player count
If you're dead set on playing the game
Switch modes or play solo and quit the game (individual battle). Thats the fastest way to rectify the error
Or just play solo
Have you done a ping test?
patch note is empty
I'm on fiber so
Do you know your upload and download speeds currently
MM error + classes will nuke my playtime
is your sister on snapchat or instagram updating her reels taking all the bandwith.
Im not at my pc but i think the download is around 800
800 kb/s?
uh if youre getting 800 it sounds like your connection has a large noise issue
If your house is full of people using devices to connect to the internet, it's going to be using up bandwidth and raising your ping disallowing you to connect to servers.
Nah its just the local region
https://www.speedtest.net/ have you done this before
I don't lag or anything i tend to ping 20-30
And my tower is wired in not wifi
So that helps
I should run a resource monitor or something to see if thats it. But it seems to have the issue during the matching process which isnt exactly client side intensive
And whats even weirder
It doesnt do it like first time always
Ive had like 4 or 5 rounds and then match making failed
And then others do 1 round.... countdown 3..2....1.. matchmaking failed
is the lag intermittent over the entire match, or at certain points
Map doesnt matter either
For reference i just did the test above:
UP 249.22/ Down 11.77
- its not the best, its pretty average I think but its stable.
what was yours
comcast ruby?
Most commonly 1st round goes fine... them MMF
Me, no. Spectrum combine with phone, but they have bottlenecked myservice for sure, i have to change every few years so they maintain me on the higher bandwith service
I'm on ATT
high traffic times i always spike, around 5-6pm and when people get off school at 2-3pm
I also have match making errors occasionally and its due to ping for my specific case.
i get the same sort of spikes but they tend to be uncommon (every 2nd or 3rd match)
Ya its normal unless you want to pay and arm and a leg for priority internet
otherwise youre shared.
I cant imagine but ill check my ping to see if maybe its matching me to EU servers
thank u
too bad we cant get fiber optic here
because we live in america and everything is expensive for no reason
Itd be ironic if my good connection is the culprit
Fiber stopped being installed because the government passed a bill to no longer allow it.
No idea why they would do that, my state protested.
gamers actually rising up?
Like my ping is so good it matches me to a EU server and then the high ping to EU fails after that
ya just click the link i sent you
if something makes a service cheaper long term, why go against it
NOT SUS AT ALL
ookla is perfectly saft
@spiral folio cmd - tracert easo.ea.com and see what the hop rate is
I can manage a speed test when i get home
I hadnt thought of checking my ping to see if I'm on a eu server
Sounds like hes at school boys, so maybe lets trouble shoot more when you get home.
are you playing BF in math class?
Id show you an image of what im doing now if THE MAN let me
Top assembly pipe and valve layouts mm mm mm yum
Satisfactory ?
i was trying on my 3 hr break
No
same with gyms
yet the up is 25
actual tube and pipe assembly drawings
youre in trade school?
That would be practice
I have a lot of down time cause my supervisor tends to f off and do other things
guys, where can I report bugs found in 2042? Is there any official channel/website for that?
You said you would ping me if the thing got fixed, so when your home. dont forget. Would like to know what the solution was.
So he gives me like 3x the time to do things and i mess with my phone like while he's off or while thr slow frigin network loads this stuff
Probably, I just complain here :u
https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/bd-p/battlefield-2042-bug-reports-en you cant report them here
and nothing happens later on? 😄
Or like the forums... blurg
suprised thats not pinned
Forums are the best place to report.
Id use the forums but
[Agent smith] it's the smell
channel isnt really for that type of stuff
yeah i guess
but having a small FAQ pinned to the channel is like a good practice...
They
"Should"
Have a tech support and bug report room
But i mean if you look at the channel list. Priorities
that would be a hot mess unless its done right
@normal eagle ^
Carbonic used to have something pinned is it notthere?
Ive seen bug report rooms run by "some random dudes" whos report rooms function very well
I actually suggested a #community-support channel a while ago, sadly it wasn't voted up
what they need to do is make a chat room and utilize the thread function
What is the tech channel then.. <.<
Should be one otherwise people just ask here
Tech i think is like people geeking out over like new keyboards and such
or a thread in #technology for bug reports
absolutely not lol
actually
Downloading more computer power into their ram tubes
What is this channel if not for discussing issues players are having issues and possible fixes. <.<
ok yeah, that wouldnt work
it would get lost within a week and people would spam it with issues
Look its a community run server. If the Devs were a part of the server then they would have input on organization, otherwise. Do what feels natural.
or... just make a thread for bug reporting
Update #3.1.2 for #Battlefield2042 is now live across all platforms.
Restart your game to grab the update if you're still playing 🎮
Update Notes 👇
https://t.co/WaGUmhncBX

😅
guys, but there is a community functionality in discord, this is the best option for that case (it's like an old-fashioned forum)
i do agree that we need to have a bug reporting solution for the short term until most of the bugs have been fixed
its like a faster reddit
Yea the tech room is just like computer parts and that kind of tech support. Not like BF support
its not looked over by the developers, and 2, theyd rather not spend all their time i imagine getting hounded about it
Im sure you COULD ASK there but
Speaking of getting off topic. Ahem.
Its on topic because...
Theres no place for it
So the update, is nice.
Ironically how we got here was like "did the update fix the MM failed bug?"
carb best having the bot post a message where to report issues in #info tbh
where all the info is centralised
That was discussed as well. But it was voted down as the forum is really the best place for it. There was a server-news message a little while back where we asked the Discord community for feedback and suggestions but not many suggested the feature there sadly.
true
this is gonna sound like a stupid idea
if an issue comes up, type !report and it DMs a link for the forums
non regulars cant interact with the bot
wait what?
stats is only enabled iirc
you can send a suggestion like that into modmail. Im sure they would like to read good ideas like that instead of gripes all the time.
and i go hide you guys have fun
oh right, modmail

its possible but like, its not really ideal
ill send some ideas to modmail
This should be the best option IMO. It will be pinned for everyone.
what we actually need is for it to send 3 messages on one command
I'll tell you one thing, I'm a developer myself, I know what it's like to be on the other side, but at the same time, being a consumer, I don't want to, for example, go somewhere, log into a forum to report something, as I am on Discord. The question is how many people like me there are, because of which, for example, there are still unrepaired, minor bugs (like malfunctioning VoIP on PS5 during crossplay...). On the other hand, I know that it would be hard to report in an orderly, clutter-free way if it was done via discord
are we still getting 3.2 this friday?
Most likely later this month
okay thanks 
as am i, and i know for a fact speaking to EA staff off and on this server its an absolute nightmare
Discord is not ideal. Someone is paid to read the forums however, Things will be lost in discord. Its great for community building and creating an atmosphere.
The devs and EA peeps do lurk on here and report stuff back to the devs, but it being a chat things do get lost
Yea alex shows up and we argue a little. Its fun
yeah they do even respond sometimes on here. Your best bet is to post on the EA forums. The devs are answered 3/4 of my request
i complained about sfar too powerful, sundance not having good headgear, and nerfing mackay ads speed
all 3 been had dev comment feed backs
does mackay get better ads speed than the other specialists?
is the new portal sniper good
his nimble trait makes him move ADS faster than most
imo i think he does everything faster than most specialist but people say im crazy
It’s a vast upgrade
welp, time to T1 mackay
Gunther rides again
I play mainly sundance and rao on ps4 when i play as mackay it feels like rush chaos most he just maneuvers faster
yeah they 100% are, they are trying very hard for the game and will go into any corner to make it good
its proven they have been watching youtube videos already
of feedback and gameplay
thanks enders
so far i've seen alot of positive feedback on 3.1.2 with the recoil
im just curious how it performs on old gen ps4 cuz thats what im really curious about
reddits been blowing up
I mean I play dozer and rao but I have Tier 1’d mackay
reddit = yellow cheese bus kids
strangly put

like yeah
all the other operators get a med gun, a grappling hook
I might have t1d lis but i dont recall
he gets a shield
You have to make dozer viable I’ll say it for you.
I really dont care for red/black
I love to post sundance videos n reddit to piss them off
only like 3 specialist t1 i like
Then they start screaming when you use dozer and actually get more than 4 kills in a row
I posted a video of me flying across Kaleidoscope to steal a tank that was being called in and I got a lot of comments like "So this is Battlefield now?"
I used to use mackay for sniping but they're shackling him to assault
as if Battlefield never had any silly moments in it's gameplay ever
Snd really most of the high up places to snipe arent very good
still getitng flashbacks to the flying hovercrafts in bf4
It was epic
I started using lis as a counter sniper and its better
Like counter sniper + vehicle hunter
cant u still use a sniper with mackay tho?
oh, you meant beacons.
nvm
I do Love pissing off the aircraft pilots with rao hacks and Stinger missiles
Well youll get penalized later but like i used to just use him for reaching places
the most formidable way of countering is this tbh
honestly aircraft needs a rework
sadly no
I’ll hold off the entire enemy teams aircraft by myself on occasion
I’ll get like 10 kills but hey I did my job and kept them off the teams back so I did well
I just rail-spam at the cockpit and hope for a pilot kill
Its really nice when they just drop with a full crew
also emp grenades need a buff
Emp grenade launcher
they should make a vehicle keep moving in the direction it was moving when it was disabled
EMP rounds for the NTW
oh god no
Buff the NTW back to what it was
the rosche is already a nightmare
Let it actually be able to be an anti material rifle
They should make the NTW into a payload and anti vehicle rifle
Like give it unique rounds and make it fire bipod only
Lemme put APIT rounds in my NTW
they should make the ntw a gadget
Kinda like the tank hunter rifle from bf1?
or the boys from 5
Yea cause the real NTW is 20mm and weighs 60lbs
basically its a single shot anti materiel rifle
Yeah I figured it was probably the same as the real life one
problem was it was not designed to penetrate the old german tanks
but since the ntw is sort of in the same category, it makes sense
The thing about 20mm is theres like explosive rounds, ap, and then yea future use could have like emp rounds, fire-forget, sabot
Having rounds the size of small beer bottles pretty much
Otherwise what does the ntw have that the railgun doesnt
No charge is it
The rest are cons
I feel like If you could damage the tracks on tanks and wheels on vehicles it would be useful as well
tbh, if they made the ntw fire fragmentation 20mm and make it a gadget, then replace it with a sniper like a futuristic sniper, then i could see that
[+] damage vehicles no charge
-... slower velocity / more drop, longer ads, lower ammo capacity, longer reloads, glitchy reloads...
yeah but the purpose is to make it replace the recoilless
The recoilless is very nice though
or compete against it
It’s even got a range finder so you can aim exactly at the tank
Imo
They shoulda made a .50cal without damage to tanks and armor, but good damage vs light vehicles
nah, we need more anti armor options
And damage to like barricades and such
Give us slap rounds for the NTW so it can straight up kill the driver
c5 is literally an infantry killer
As anti armor 20mm is worthless after 1940
We’re getting the Javalin soon
recoilless is essentially alright as is
Vs light armor 20mm is ok still
javelin unless its FAF will be not good
I Hope we can also target specific points like you can in real life
I dont have a ton of faith that intelligent weapons will exist
also we need to make the marked targets do more damage than without them being marked
The way i get around aps is use the lis rocket boost before it warns them
I always see people trying to do that even though I hear the thing from halfway across the map
I also use my APS to protect my MBT’s if I’m in the ram or railgun tank
Fire up/away go high to avoid LOS boost in when near aimed on target
I hope they add more 1942 weapons, or anything in general, it lacks alot
Can’t Javalins also do direct attack not just top down
wanna know what would be cool
I like your suggestion a futuristic Barrett M107 would be cool
if you could throw a flare and make it have lock on abilities
like a motion sensor but for lock ons
Throws a flare at a tank then uses my stinger to shoot the flare
I think javs arc is to avoid armor
Yeah cause tanks don’t have a lot of top armor
That’s why Russia is trying to use cope cages rn in Ukraine
The cope cage
Gotta catch the dogtags
What is this new exodus conquest and regular conquest
I downloaded this game two days ago and stuff is already changing 😭
Playlists change every week
Ahh
one is 64 player and the other is 128 player conquest
Ooo new maps
the 64 player one uses portal maps in addition to AOW maps
AOW?
128 just uses AOW maps
And what’s portal
all out warfare
Is that a battlefield thing lol
thats the name of 128 player modes
Sorry if these are stupid questions I know little to nothing about each special gamemode
Ah
portal is a collection of maps, weapons and vehicles from different eras of past games
namely, 3, 1942 and bfbc2
Can you crouch sprint? I’m half annoyed it always deploys to slide but makes sense
My first battlefield was V, feels weird in this one
What weapons does SOFLAM buff?
none AFAIK
Was meaning lock-on, poor wording
Cause it would explode explodier if it was locked
Its very middle-road
hey is there a way to switch servers?
Like fire rate is ok, good not great damage? Fewer options cause its portal
oce is completely dead rn
wack
Just unlock it in a single match vs bots on like stranded breakthrough 
Yea you can unlock portal stuff through solo
Super easy takes like 1 battle
The bots form like skirmish lines and volley shots in the open street
Makes it 10x easier for me
hey i'm not in loop with bf news, where have the other maps from conquest gone and will we get them back/ more changes??
There's different modes now is im guessing the issue
Like conquest chaos is its own special thing i think
is anyone having trouble selecting the new portal guns
Do they need an unlock?
You're at least the third person asking this question here today so yes
bruhhhh I need to try sten
Sometime we dont get the gun we want but the one we deserve
pp2000 is seen in game files along with some other new smgs that are kinda vauge
vague*
p38
mp443
Sometime that can be like failed ideas that got left in the files
Bro im enjoying the 1942 mode
They said they were aware of this issue but it's the same thing everytime they release new update...
The movement is nice but in the next bf game I would like to see it nerfed to the ground like what mw2022 did
Every update dice releases will have bugs and glitches
gonna raid the workplace cuz of this
Yeah it seems like it's not an option
What do you mean ?
Movement wasn’t really nerfed in MW2. You still see spastic people pre-jumping corners and other nonsense. Only difference is you can’t slide and shoot anymore
Make the movement less competitive for example remove slide canceling
Or the slide jump
And run
Ha yes, maybe BFV movements with a bit of modernization would be nice
I know certain games can have this and it is enjoyable. But battlefield hasn't been known to be big on competition
Next specialist with mandalorian jetpack also he can snipe while in the air also
But the armor only reduces damage by 70% doesnt entirely block damage
So it's fair
I’d love to see a P320 in the game
this new bf2042 update is a joke
i've cleared 30gb on my hdd
and it still
complains
for downloading 1.5gb
either EA play is trash or the game is trash at optimising a stupid small ass update
Yeah bfv movement was nice,
Of course there is that guy

I liked the thing where if you fall prone youd be off angle
Not sure why people sleep on this update
It fixes the biggest impacting bug in the game
if it installs
I hope we get next update announcement next week
ill let you know
i've cleared 50gb
god i want to go on such a big rant
how difficult can it BE
can some one tell me how much i gotta clear for 2gb to be downloaded???
EA play
Epic games
unfuckingfortunately
I think it's EA play fault
No one else is having this issue and everyone was very happy to see that the infamous recoil bug from launch is fixed
how large is your entire BF2042 folder
i cant transfer my ea game to steam or i'd have done it 6yrs ago
thanks anyway
just fed up with pathetic engineering
they stopped origin
or id still be using that
cutting off proper working software when you don't even have feature parity
whichever engineering manager approved that, can kiss my fat ass
kind regards,
a SWE
EA community team can ss this and put it in their feedback retro for the team
Lmao
origin just worked
forcing me to use shit software that doesn't even work
should be a crime
random orange skins over shit
look at steam
is it eye candy?
no
does it work?
fuck yes
Bros is on the verge of tears
this thing is FINALLY playable but i can't even install the update
on a shitty enforced launcher
give me the option to transfer my account
fml
Have you actually tried looking up a solution or are you throwing a tantrum just to throw a tantrum
I have
It just populates the folders with seemingly null data as soon as you free up space
There is no way it downloaded and occupied 25GB of free storage in 30 second flat
If I had an option to 'clear download cache' or 'clean game' i'd have used it
so I couldn't select them in the new portal featured gamemode but I can in other portal servers
L
Can you not swap from Origin to EA Desktop to see if that fixes it?
it's making sure 25 GB of space exist by attempting to occupy it with empty space so that it can just write to the files directly
Origin worked, but there's now a page saying move to EA so I've moved and I get this stuff
i'm aware
but it's occupied 80GB
i just cancelled the space and I have 85GB enough
is that not enough?
that's a whole ass game for a 'small update'
I don't know what to tell ya tbh I'm not an EA tech support guy
But I guess put in a ticket with them if you can’t puzzle it out
i'll redownload it
even they don't know their shit
He could always put a ticket in to ea tech support
i've gone down that route, they just give you basic app data support stuff
half of the highest voted stuff on ea forums
is non-EA staff coming up with solutions
and most of them are origin related
but thank u
im gonna try redownloading till i find some hacky solution
it's not a tantrum for players but more for some random person from EA reading it and understanding that basic stuff that wasn't broken, doesn't need fixing
could put a 'STORAGE REQUIRED' figure on this page https://www.ea.com/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/news/battlefield-2042-update-notes-3-1-2 if i gotta have 100GB free
EA play just decided that 10GB is suddenly 'corrupt' and wants to redownload that too 😊
see y'all in the next update lol


12/02/2022 "you said that EA app is shit for me so you uninstalled and youre going to stay with Origin." Are you sure you dont already have the game installed somewhere else?
https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/BF2042-Update-Won-t-Download/td-p/10998680 This thread specifically states from a community manager that you need about double the disk space available for the download. The remaining fixes users had were, just use Origin.
have they fixed the issue where game cache gets uploaded to onedrive storage?
Not last time I checked, did poke one of the devs about it though
i also tried emailing about this problem ... this was 3 months ago
Still just don't backup documents which kinda sucks
i kinda have to because of school
I can't use Origin because it puts up a paywall type block
I fixed it
I had to cancel the download and reinstall EA play
EA app replaced Origin
It's now showing as 75GB in total, which is correct but previously it was just taking up any amount I was freeing
I know
But 'use origin' is not a solution, I can't do it or I would
EA Play was making BF2042 take up around 210GB for some reason, cancelling the update and reinstalling EA fixed it
EA doesn't even have 'Locate Game' functionality
The regular 'let it download a bit, force close, replace' hack that works with pretty much any launcher doesn't work either
We digress, issue is resolved but just another EA play quirk
EA app does weird things sometimes
locate game feature is being worked on I think I read somewhere but it is taking some sweet time that's for sure
It'll come with BF7
I usually get an error after trying to match for anothe rgame after finishing one, anyone else got same issue?
is there any other way to play infantry conquest they took it out lol
there is infantry breakthrough now
its like a combo of rush and conquest, instead of placing bombs its capturing objectives and u can also cap a point back if there are 2 obj in a sector
I was in 5 games in a row with Maxiq in the lobby... and he gets 70-100 kills every single game... Is he on adderall or something?
and if u lsoe a sector you need to fall back to the enxt set of flags
attack helicopter?
No, infantry only surprisingly enough. I saw him running around as Mackay everywhere I went.
well if he’s not cheating that’s kind of impressive
Pretty sure DICE themselves confirmed that he wasn't.
Mackay with K30.
Yeah
hm ok
Crossplay off lobbies, it was at peak time so not a single ai.
he's a certified gamer
Roaming.
like he's one of those guys that people on reddit fucking hate because he's good at the video game.
He's not some random dude btw, he has like 200k subscribers on Youtube.
i know who he is
That was directed at the other guy
iirc he used to be known for aggressive recon stuff on previous BF games
but i guess he doesn't really do that in 2042 for obvious reasons.
Has the specialist rework thing happened yet or is it coming?
which rank is he?
S350 iirc.
it's coming end of January
Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow in the same squad
Lis my beloved
There's no extended magazine so drum will do
Did they allow for more jets in AOW?
No
I’m watching Jackfrag’s latest video and there are two SU-57s in the sky while he plays
Uh that’s different
Enders when he loses a gunfight: omg game is trash devs are trash literally unplayable broken broken omg
Enders when he wins a gunfight:
...
It takes two seconds of self awareness to realize that other players are playing the same game as you and you're not the only person experiencing an issue or bug
Battlefield players who think the game is only good if they never die should be completely disregarded
Yeah
I have no clue how he has that many subscribers with the kind of content he makes but that's just my opinion
He was throwing all sorts of insults at this server and its mods on stream today
Was he really?
it's certainly not something it seems like he wouldn't do
Meh, who gives a fuck
We chillin in here
Discarded has some nice visuals man
Was playing attackers on BT on it last night and gah lee
Hope the rework fixes BT spawns tho. Second sector attacker spawn is awful, it’s so pushed back from the objectives
People from europe add me if you want play
If u kill bots with a gun, do you progress attachments for it?
Yes
You can actually completely unlock vehicle and gun attachments in solo/co-op
Some progress towards specialists can be done as well
True I think until t4
Is so funny people are seeing Battlefield 2042 clips on social media asking what game it is, why did people say it’s bad. People be jumping on bandwagon too much. Elden Ring is crap to me, everyone is playing it cos someone else said it’s good smh 🤦🏾♂️
Wait it goes on after t1?
Nothing but extra mastery levels
The tiers count down, so T5-T4-T3-T2-T1
btw the newest Player Card background talks about the M1 Garand and Iwo Jima, with Crawford owning the M1 Garand, so maybe that means something?
i mean he is an arms dealer
Oh really? lmao
Breakthrough doesnt need air transports
Games first private beta was really good, then it went into public beta and it took a hit, then release came and it was a mess, i left for a while and came back after a bunch of updates and im pretty happy where it is
i dont feel anything different on recoil
also how tf do you unlock the new 1942 weapons
n vm theyre already there
oh but i cant select them? tf
it's bugged
If you get into a match of 1942 they'll be selectable
i am.
lel bren lmg is kinda fun
My least favorite one is when the graphics just clip nonstop, or a whole plane blocking view just appears next to you
Plane - not the flying variety, like a complete graphics plane through the map it was horrible
I wondered if I was the only one experiencing it or not, because it seemed like people started using it as cover
It was kinda hilarious looking back
wasgood
Launch was actually Alpha
Sup man
1942 rendezvous is fun
breakthrough doesnt need transports or helis. just give em a tank or two and call it a day
Air transports make defending on BT annoying as shit
You're right about this
If Attackers get Air Transports, defenders need good things to defend against that
yeah, can't even play the game without getting demolished by a condor and playing aa is the most boring shit imaginable
wild cats and tors for everyone\
And breakthrough doesn't do that
Battlefield Six on TikTok got some great content.
As far as I know attack helis are mostly removed from breakthrough
so are jets
Meanwhile first sector of Kaleidoscope BT for defenders: you get literally nothing
except orbital bt, orbital bt is atrocious
bt infantry is fuckin dead in oceania
before they changed transports attackers could have 2 super hinds it was so dumb
people act as if rao, lis, and the stinger dont exists in 2042
Yeah they do exist, I use them but like whenever a team complains "Where's our AA!?" you'll see them not using them at all
annoying as shit, ive complained to devs before but they stand with the stance that defense is inherently easier, so giving attack more vehicles balances it
only issue is, it should be map per map, and more intuitive. like spearhead bt can sometimes be too in favor of defense, but is generally well balanced, but other maps sometimes are too one-sided
Lis can do some damage with that guided occasionally but nothing worse that heat guided one
soflam for recoiless lol
What also doesn't help is the missions in the week that contain "repairing"
They exist but i play 2042 to yk... shoot people not chase after a condor with an AA missile that doesnt do enough damage lmao
I play Irish Gimble, I don’t feel safe capturing objectives without his equipment
I’ve seen condors just sit like 400-500 meters above objectives on BT anyways
It’s not super fun for the pilot buuuut
well than thats just the fault of the team for not taking it out. happens in any match or mode, where one side is dominating depending if aa or air support is doing their job
I mean I understand sorta but like attacking just naturally feels way better
I’m not sure how to explain it
kaliedoscope till the end lol
condors and super hinds lowkey make this game unfun
Me watching the almost dead condor zip away in a matter of seconds
to be fair, 2042 looked horrible at release, and was very glitchy in the open beta, i had fair enough reason to avoid it till the gamepass release.
Also elden ring is really good, so idkwym by that
Looked horrible as far as graphics? Maybe on PC i suppose
General comment here but I remember when people said this game looked like it belonged on the PS3 or some shit meanwhile on the PS5 it’s nearly photorealistic
Strandeds aesthetics >>>>
the same bugs from beta persisted on launch, jets being able to ram infantry on spawn, hit reg, and a bunch of other bugs that need not go unnamed.
that shit looked hilarious tho
Lol it was for sure
but the game is very stable now, to be honest a lil more stable then some of the other bf games atm server and gameplay wise imo
MAV is superior 😎
They need to nerf either the hinds hp or agility
It cant be both
The condors a lot less agile
I’d be willing to compromise on HP
They still need agility if they’re gonna be weaker
thank god the rorsche got nerfed, and i still dont understand how the nvk works
Yea like either make it fly like a tank or fragile as you know... a helicopter
Yea cause CLEARLY the helo we are currently talking about being op needed a buff
I feel like they could also just get rid of the front weapon slot but I dunno, it would probably make them boring and worst at clearing objectives
didnt they make it so that some areas on the condor take more damage or something
The rail was the only counter to the hinds broken specs
The engines are probably weaker
I was PS4 owner so when the Beta was released, my hopes was low. I still got the game but sold it. When I got PS5 bought it again. Reviews brought the price down from £50 what I paid for PS4 to £15 on PS5. Overtime the game has really improved, there is no substitute atm. Elden Ring If I play an RPG the story is a big part, imo creating bosses that swing at you crazy is not a difficult game to make. Where’s the Story Bloodborne and Sekiro felt kind of empty.
nah, the rail was abusive, and only the most annoying unfun players sat on it all day
But… sometimes I pretend I’m Tom cruise 
The difference is the rail doesnt turn a battle but those stupid helicopters can
Wonder if the damage nerf counts the hind as a heavy vehicle or a light one
Cause it takes as many hits as a gd tank to knock it down
Skyrim better than Elden Ring
i agree, the game lacks good enough upfront story. tbh, i feel like the lore is just there to make you appreciate the small details and atleast have context, but in general the current events and post consequences arent as epic as they could be imo
completely different gameplay, each game has their own strengths and weakness, therefor they are all unique
anyone find with exodus conquest you end up on crazy loss streaks?
just don't be bad lmao

Is it just me or does the game not allow you to select the new 1942 weapons
can't do much when the team is sitting in the spawn lol
had a round earlier with no joke was only our squad anywhere past our gimme objectives
because i am trying to pick the gweher 43 for example and it forces you back to the k98 or the m1 garand
i'd have to guess there are unlock requirements to use them but they didn't put them into the game right so it shows they are unlocked and usable
is the 43 in te portal mode already or enw adition?
dice making the absolute buggiest, unpleasant game experience possible to make it good later for more players.
whats the rule for fall damage in this game?
ayyyy ADS bug is back with a vengeance 
you die when you fall from high level
the sfar one?
nah was using AK
damn
forgot about it..used lis missile
cause i got the sfar one a few weeks ago
@ripe hedge should probably know about this
then later spawned in squadmates tank, jumped out and tried to shoot someone but no bullet damage 
always get put into an empty server lets gooo
I think we in a simulation. We make videos games and the rate of improvement is rapid. There’s going to be video games so real one day you won’t be able to distinguish it from reality.
Exactly
They gave me weak bulild in this game
I'm getting truman show'd the way I can't find a full server, anyone know a fix that isn't reinstall the whole ass game?
I need to grind this character out
what region are you in
NA
and on pc?
pc, playing on xbox gamepass
what gamemode are you queuing for
Every single one I've tried gives me an empty one, but Breakthrough and Conquest
lemme try rq
Thats unfortunate
this happened yesterday, i didnt think much of it but it keeps happening
i'm in a portal server with like 10 ppl rn
crossplay?
bruh "infantry bt" im gonna kill whoever manages the gamemode selection
well i just got into a bt match in seconds
so...
and its a full match
seems so
I think it might be from something I did, I added battlefield 2042 to steam as a non-steam game to try and make my ps4 controller work (For vehicles and aircraft) and that might've messed with it
so im gonna try a reinstall
Yesterday midday I was finding a lot of different active BT games
Same region, NA
So ye that could help
it still happens for me, on Portal maps (the ones in rush: caspain, valparaiso, arica, noshahr), when I spawn or otherwise enter a vehicle with the sfar as my primary, though I assume it happens with any gun that has an underbarrel weapon. It's easily fixed by swapping your underbarrel for a grip, then back to the launcher. the problem with the sfar is that it has nothing but launcher as the underbarrel 
i mean yeah im on pc (steam, which just launches ea app) NA-W getting full servers
yeah i was on arica
hoping this hour and a half doesn't go to waste lmao
with the sfar you have to look for a gun to pick up and swap back to it
good luck not dying
cant believe that bug is still runnin around
apparently its too difficult for them to fix so they dont care enough? its been "fixed" a couple times now
i mean it must be getting fixed sometimes because it disappears from everyones conscience and then reappears randomly
oooh they made revive indicators easier to see
Can ps4 and 5 play together yet
If the PS5 plays on the PS4 version
i meant for vehicles
you die when you fall from a high level. still.
Did the servers just die? Or just die for me?
Got booted to the menu with something along the lines of “All Players have been disconnected” mid match in 1942 Rendezvous on PS5, Unable to connect to EA servers now, nothing wrong on my end, nothing wrong on PSN, just booted up Chivalry 2 and am currently in-game, so not sure what the issue is?
normal portal behavior lol

Same I was just sitting on the portal screen and it kicked me to the start screen
Same
Haven’t been able to log in
ngl infantry bt is pretty fun
feels like an actual fight without the vehicles for some reason
what geo location you in? I'm USA west coast and stuck at loading screen
west coast here as well, in a game
I’m in TX, but Idk, could be EA issue, if everyone that just replied is on PSN, I’m kinda leanin towards a PSN issue because I just experienced a Lost Connection in Chiv2 on PS5 as well though I’m still online on PSN.
I will blame my net last 
I swear I feel like this is a damn looney tunes cartoon some times
fucking
Littearly 5 meters from hitting a vehicle with lis
moves at the last second
misses

Dice inadvertently buffs SFAR to godhood with the recoil fixes. Also reintroduces ADS bug

good news: lis is getting some "love" in 3.2
eh
Maybe if you’re on console she’s bad
Lis is good except breakthrough
What are they gonna do to her
when sam says "love" he typically means bug fixes and qol improvements to help a character succeed
HE BETTER
if they buff her ima lose it
She’s legit one of the better balanced specs
they should 







Hm let’s make the anti air specialist even more broken 
Lis now has airburst missiles
Fr
fuck that would utterly destroy this game
Boris turret is so damn useless
She’s already great. Just gotta fix the times the rocket bounces off or goes through the vehicle. Even on console she’s good.
Lis rockets are arguably busted cause they literally will hit even when you’re nowhere close
i just got a black screen freeze
the last few months have been good idk why they had to ruin it with this latest patch
Just hit a bomber with a rocket while in the tornado and it did like 15 damage
Saddest moment in my life
Damn, it really be like that sometimes

Or they hit direct for no dmg or just flies through
Andrew Tate moment
Theyre busted because of their maneuverbility and range + that it oneshots helis, which is OP asf
anyone not able to launc BF2042
What color is your specialist skin
At least Crawford is actully sucessful as a person
I keep forgetting his name
So I end up just calling him Andrew Tate or hardline cover art guy
Boris Bulwark skin
Faxts
average "get arrested in romania" fan vs average "live a double life between MI6 and the dark market" enjoyer
Real
I reinstalled 2042 and still get empty lobbies 😭
is crossplay on
What region.
Options menu
Just got a 7300 mb/s SSD. Time to see how fast I can rage quit BF2042 
yo way is BT infantry still dead?
2 seconds
this entire time i was raging over not being able to play over a setting
😭
oh well might as well still mess around on portal
BRUH THEY GIVE 1942 SOLDIERS A FUCKING TELEPHONE FOR CALL INS
It was the same way in BFV, right?
M5A3 is now T1
It still not as busted as it was in BF4
Airburst only has a limited range of 100 meters in 2042
I remember sniping people with it in 4
yeah but i mean having infinite ammo is insane on it
are there any alive servers in Oceania though?
I miss doing Jeep Stuff https://streamable.com/q8tty0
arica exodus match
start of game spawn in squadmate heli
flies over to enemy first cap..sits in air and gets absolutely destroyed by missiles
spawn on squadmate tank who is on bridge who instantly dies to tank shooting us
perfect start to a match
excuse me but wtf is the 1942 mode in portal, why is there no landing vehicles for the attackers on noshahr canals
why the fuck can you still call a tank on top of the fucking tower on orbital dice
I see no problem
The amount of children and immature assholes in MW2 almost takes me back to my junior high days
anyone else getting "matchmaking failed" messages in infantry breakthrough only
im just getting empty servers
That is the pinnacle of cod tbh
Man I feel old
How old are you if you don’t mind me asking?
Even nowadays you hear that in cod games. Especially free for all
I’m ngl when I was playing the original mw2 when. I was younger it feels the same tbh
I wasn't active during the mw2 days but I was slightly active during the black ops and mw3 days. Mw3 wasn't as toxic surprisingly. And in black ops everyone was laid back because of it being a whole new experience
well no thats not a thing thats been happening for a long time
must have been a temporary issue
Finally happened, my mouse I have been using for years has slight issues
Both clickers
my desk has one of those slide out keyboard plates and when i slide it in i always end up crushing the mouse wire cus i run it through the back
