[upbeat sand]

It's less than a second now

[subtle raptor]

He's ass I killed him 100 times

[royal swan]

Fuck yeah man

[idle lion]

[subtle raptor]

I play outside sitting on the ground

[royal swan]

You play inside?

Not good for the skin, gotta get that SUN VITAMINS

[next onyx]

I don't think people are intentionally abusing invincibility.n

[upbeat sand]

I feel like I'm getting worst

[royal swan]

That's from playing inside, gotta play outside

[subtle raptor]

Yep

[sharp marten]

No

I play bf2042 on my mp3 player

[subtle raptor]

I remember when battlefield 1942 came out they reached out to me to play test 2042 they told me they would release it in 100 years

[upbeat sand]

How is that's possible

[sharp marten]

You gonna let beanie disrespect you like that?

[upbeat sand]

1942 came out in 2002

[sharp marten]

Homie said don’t be rude

Now personally

[hexed mango]

Mackay*

[royal swan]

Thanks

[subtle raptor]

They were planning it all along that's why they said they'd release it in 100 years but they rushed it to release after only 18

[hexed mango]

19

[sharp marten]

20

[subtle raptor]

Same thing

[royal swan]

I know I'm rude, earlier I said I like being malicious

[hexed mango]

21

[sharp marten]

7/11

[hexed mango]

uh

[upbeat sand]

Development in 1942

They predicted the future

[hexed mango]

started working in 1942 to make 1942

Battlefield 1984

[sharp marten]

You have to let beanie know who’s in charge

[royal swan]

And stand out, nahhhh

[subtle raptor]

Yeah they got me specifically to play test 2042 so they could make sure the war was accurate to real life

[hexed mango]

which it isnt

so you failed

[sharp marten]

Battlefield Stone Age would go so hard

[hexed mango]

you failed your job

[subtle raptor]

It's not 2042 yet

[sharp marten]

Listen here beanie YOU FUCK

[subtle raptor]

I don't think it's called battlefield 2023 just wait

[subtle raptor]

Isn't that rust

[sharp marten]

I’m sorry beanie I came off very hostile

[hexed mango]

i dont think the stone age had guns

so no, rust is not the stone age

[upbeat sand]

Battlefield fallout

[sharp marten]

When the fuck did they have guns in the Stone Age joe

[hexed mango]

fr

best cross over ever

[upbeat sand]

Imaging having the ncr and the legion

[sharp marten]

31st

[upbeat sand]

attack of the least buff australians

[next onyx]

Updates usually drop on Tuesday or Thursday.

[sharp marten]

Beanie are you Aussie as well

[next onyx]

I must of theorised that it would be dropping on the 27th.

[sharp marten]

Lol

[copper fulcrum]

omw to read everyone's newfangled bio once the update drops

[sharp marten]

Lore be loring

[upbeat sand]

whats the worst

that could happen

[copper fulcrum]

The bios are long as shit

They're like 6 paragraphs long for each person and has 'key dates' like birth, enlisting, when they joined Exodus, etc.

[sharp marten]

That’s pretty awesome

[copper fulcrum]

btw Crawford is aged 40

[chilly jacinth]

old

[rocky kraken]

wait

are bios in the game now?

[copper fulcrum]

3.2

[rocky kraken]

damn

they went tryhard this update

gawd damn

if only their was a campaign

😦

playthrough each specialist

rip

[arctic grove]

you think they care anymore

[rocky kraken]

i mean

who knows

i wasnt expecting bios this late in

[copper fulcrum]

Aren't these longer than R6S bios?

[sharp marten]

I’d really like to see at some point that the exodus is a no pat spawn point

[rocky kraken]

exodus as a map

:0

[copper fulcrum]

Okay, I saw "No Pat Down Point" and thought "Yo who would have a canonical death?"

first thought was Irish lol

[arctic grove]

remember when they used to make op bio video

[sharp marten]

Like our tanks roll out of it our hells take off from it

[arctic grove]

[rocky kraken]

wheres

wwait

what was the characters name we played in bf4 campaign

[arctic grove]

recker

[limpid pond]

Yo wait a minute I got warned yesterday for an edgy joke?

Who warned me?

[rocky kraken]

why doesnt recker become a specialist

what even happened to recker

[granite dragon]

is there anyway to bind a hotas to bf2042?

[arctic grove]

retired or dead

[rocky kraken]

a hotpocket?

[arctic grove]

just gives you character. its fine.

[rocky kraken]

why just throw recker away

[copper fulcrum]

They won't tell you lol

[rocky kraken]

😦

[granite dragon]

you mean the food? no i mean joystick and throttle

[copper fulcrum]

They'll tell you why you got warned in detail if you ask though

[rocky kraken]

oh im a pc degenerate

sorry

[granite dragon]

same

[rocky kraken]

havent played controller since 2016

[granite dragon]

its not a controller really, its a stick and throttle

[arctic grove]

you mean fps controller

[granite dragon]

if fps means first person shooter no

like on a plane

[arctic grove]

not you

[granite dragon]

oh my bad

[rocky kraken]

oh

well

i have no clue

[royal swan]

Gotta add the smaw

Bring in the SMAW

[limpid pond]

It said please refrain from edgy jokes

Like huh?

[royal swan]

Edgy jokes? I want my fucking smaw

[half tusk]

Emm...

[limpid pond]

Bro I didn't even type yesterday at 11:28

How tf did I get warned for an edgy joke????

[half tusk]

what's happenning?

[limpid pond]

I'm actually confused

[half tusk]

may I ask a question?

[limpid pond]

Bo

No

Not allowed

[half tusk]

ok

how can I install it?

[limpid pond]

You can't

Not allowed

[royal swan]

What

[royal swan]

Go ask a mod

[dire quest]

007 goldeneye just re-released on xbox and switch

[half tusk]

oh

ok

[copper fulcrum]

Just ask in mod-mail instead of asking us random people who talk about games

We aren't the mods and we can't tap into their mainframe to find out for you lol

[errant scarab]

Is there news about the next battlefield?

[inner roost]

prob next year

[thick shadow]

Wasn't it gonna be a hero shooter

If so then imma pass

[tepid agate]

I don't think they are going to head in the same direction as 2042 tried to go. That's why they are bringing classes back.

[crimson basin]

It should start leaking when 2042 support ends

[tepid agate]

2042 is extending it's support too so should be a while before another title

[crimson basin]

Only season 5 is confirmed idk

[hexed mango]

yeah they havent said anything past s5

[tepid agate]

I'm sure it will go past 5

[crimson basin]

2042 "story" ends with season 4, no?

[hexed mango]

seeing as S5 is still a while aways, itll end in more than half a year, and if that is the end, there's still at least a couple years after that until another game

[tepid agate]

There's tons of stuff they are still bringing into the game which should have been at the launch of the product. Thermals only just coming to the game after a year and they don't even have naval combat which is strange so surley they plan to add that some point in the future.

[hexed mango]

doubt they'll add naval combat

[bitter skiff]

They could keep adding features that should have been at launch forever it seems

[hexed mango]

and tbh i dont really care much for it lel

[copper fulcrum]

Unless the maps are focused on Naval Combat then Naval Combat is boring

[hexed mango]

would rather have more planes and ground vehicles than like 1 map focused on naval combat

more stuff that works on all maps >>> some stuff that works on 1 map

[crimson basin]

Yeah, it's clear they never intended naval combat to be in the game. No diving underwater, no 2042 water vehicles ( I wouldn't count hoverboats)

[copper fulcrum]

Yeah it's not like we can just go "BAM NAVAL COMBAT", there needs to be a whole map for it to work around it, which they won't do since infantry and land vehicles won't play well in it

[hexed mango]

i say 1 map cause its super unlikely that if they add naval combat they do it on more than 1 map

[hexed mango]

you said hover, but mav is technically amphibious

[tepid agate]

I'm a boots in the ground player but given naval combat is in all if not most games before this I am surprised it's not in 2042

[copper fulcrum]

Plus Naval Combat is just slow as fuck tank battles

[hexed mango]

also wouldnt really make sense given the context of 2042, besides the exodus, there really isnt the need for naval combat
most battles are mercenaries doing infiltration, or snd, exodus is just transport for the most part

[crimson basin]

It's not meant to be used in water though. There is only bf3 boat which is in portal.

[hexed mango]

rhib

and i mean it can be used in water, on Noshahr its spawned in the carrier on the water

[tepid agate]

That had a ship in that cut scene before the game was released

[hexed mango]

exodus

same ship

[tepid agate]

Also had the battleship on the background menu screen for over half a year lol

[hexed mango]

exodus, again

exodus is also the ship the lobby is on

[crimson basin]

Yeah, boats on canals is boring. Very limited interaction with the map. Consider Hanian Resort for example, boats can be active in every flag.

[hexed mango]

exodus is like the only ship in the game (there were 2 in the og loading screen, but its just another in the same fleet)

[tepid agate]

Just feels a little odd planing all the older titles then it's removed for 2042

Not complaining though I just expect them to add it in the future

As they said they are continuing past 4 seasons, I don't expect them to spend the year season reworking basegame maps, they will probably spend some seasons to fully focus on giving the fans new 2042 content

[hexed mango]

still doubt

[hexed mango]

the post-s4 content is s5

[thick shadow]

Haven't content creators covered a topic about EA wanting to have a hero shooter?

[hexed mango]

and yeah i would love an entire Y2 to focus more on new shit rather than reworks

[arctic grove]

5 is an odd number

And you should neeeeever end off on an odd number

[hexed mango]

joe

[tepid agate]

I dunno time will tell. Let's see what the fans are going to receive

[upbeat sand]

Does the class rework has an option to switch to the defibs but also still having the click to revive option

[hexed mango]

yes

[upbeat sand]

Soo is support gonna have both or?

[hexed mango]

the defib is replaced by the portal functionality

aka, you can take it out, and charge, and kill people, and revive

[arctic grove]

The portal functionality, like as in just looking at someone with the defibs out to revive?

[upbeat sand]

So back to bf4 and bf3 defibs

[hexed mango]

i believe, from what i asked sam, there is still the option to hit e on a downed teammate to revive them, but not confirmed

[hexed mango]

precisely

[arctic grove]

Besides defib kills I was disappointed when I learned the repair tool doesn’t effect enemy vehicles

[hexed mango]

cant wait to kill people with it

[arctic grove]

They should bring that back as well

[hexed mango]

uh. it does.

ive destroyed multiple vehicles with repair tool

[arctic grove]

Oh?

[tepid agate]

You can't damage vehicles with repair tools?

[hexed mango]

you can.

[upbeat sand]

Why are you overthrowing way

[tepid agate]

Never tried but shocked to see that

[arctic grove]

Was it readded in an update at some point?

[hexed mango]

no

its always been like that lol

[arctic grove]

I faintly remember launch thinking I couldn’t but that’s funny

I might be thinking of something else entirely tho

[hexed mango]

possibly

[tepid agate]

I have gotten into the habit of changing to pistol to run in 2042 because if too much DMz💀

[hexed mango]

breh

[upbeat sand]

Still semi ish miss angel giving armour

[hexed mango]

anyways

i cant wait for MTAR in 3.2

[arctic grove]

Does the character move any faster with a pistol out in this game anyways

[hexed mango]

i believe slightly... but im not super sure

[upbeat sand]

But giving armour to people felt lonely useful in hazard zone

[tepid agate]

DMZ different weapons allow you to run at different speeds.

So when I get the lmg or sniper in 2042 I switch to a pistol 💀

I'll break out of the habit soon

[thick shadow]

So anyone used the sten?

[hexed mango]

1942 🤓

[thick shadow]

How does it feel

[tepid agate]

Only when it's a weekly mission

[upbeat sand]

Sten is pretty good

[arctic grove]

After playing some mw2 rounds I go to 2042 lasering people

[hexed mango]

vcar >> portal guns

[thick shadow]

Does it feel consistent though

[upbeat sand]

I like the gewhr better

[thick shadow]

I've always liked world war weapons ngl

[tepid agate]

I only do shipment outside of DMZ to unlock skins 😄

[hexed mango]

vault weapons poopy (besides mtar, cause im stereotyping)

[arctic grove]

Same I barely play regular mp

Ground war and shipment that’s it

[thick shadow]

Sten was always funny looking to me lmfao

A literal pipe with a a magazine

[arctic grove]

I think sten is just a tube anyways

Yea

[thick shadow]

No more ammo? NO WORRIES, JUST THROW IT

[tepid agate]

Yeah I started with groundwar to ease myself transferring from battlefield to MW as groundwar felt like conquest

[arctic grove]

Ground war is nice I just think sometimes it’s overwhelming trying to move around when the maps are just condensed versions of the WZ map, so there’s a lot of buildings and stuff

[hexed mango]

mw2 talk in #battlefield-2042 again smh

[arctic grove]

o ye

[hexed mango]

2042 gets so boring so fast once im done with the season
i doubt 3.2 will be super helpful

[thick shadow]

I don't really think groundwar fits cod as a whole tbh

[hexed mango]

idk but i know how it works

[tepid agate]

Yeah. It's just because I never played a cod game since bf4... And played hours upon hours of conquests in all Battlefield games after bf4. After the disappointment of 2042 I tried MW again. Took a while to get used to it again but groundwar helped ease me lol

[hexed mango]

it was lightly explained in the podcast

[tepid agate]

Conquest still better than a ground war experience in older Battlefield games though

[hexed mango]

loadouts are gonna be class-specific now, you can make loadouts per class now, but they are tied to each class instead of being universal
and, when you grab from angel's crate, you can switch between those class loadouts you have defined

[tepid agate]

I love how you can moved around inside transport helicopters that was a nice suprise when I tried groundwar

[thick shadow]

Battlefield has been large scale conflict for years now

[hexed mango]

large scale but close focused

[thick shadow]

Can't imagine them switching to smaller, linear maps

[hexed mango]

define smaller, cause like there are pretty linear maps

[thick shadow]

Let me be a bit more specific

[acoustic seal]

smaller, linear maps tend to be community favorites, we all remember metro and amiens right?

[hexed mango]

bt specifically is a lot more linear, i tend to like it more than cq in this game

[thick shadow]

Like those 3 Lane maps like cod has done in the past years

[tepid agate]

Yeah metro sprung to mind lol

[upbeat sand]

And yet people like sani desert

For some reason

[hexed mango]

stranded bt is very linear and close quarters, infact, Tactical CQ on Stranded is just basically locker

[hexed mango]

sinai desert

[summer zenith]

I would love to get a small map in this game

[hexed mango]

stranded

[tepid agate]

Classes helped a lot to separate from the cod experience even when maps were smaller, as classes brought elements of teamwork, instead of working solo for killstreaks in cod

[thick shadow]

Idk how to put put it, you know how in bo2 the maps were simple and just 3 Lane mostly

[hexed mango]

yeah def not that small

bf would never be that small

[thick shadow]

Will that work but a bit bigger

[hexed mango]

eh

maybe??

it depends

[tepid agate]

Imagine battlefield having shipment 😄

[hexed mango]

cod and bf maps arent "swappable"

[upbeat sand]

Yeah I choose battlefield over cod cause the game is too selfish in playstyle

[hexed mango]

Noshahr has that covered in tdm

[thick shadow]

The smaller maps in bf for CQ have always allowed us a bit of freedom while traversing

Well depends what map

[hexed mango]

even then, like just said, if the maps were smaller, its mainly for tdm, and not cq

[acoustic seal]

argonne forest my beloved

[hexed mango]

cq def would be more free, larger, and vastly different from cod

[upbeat sand]

It's good

Except mortars

[thick shadow]

We don't have freedom in locker though lmao

[tepid agate]

Yeah, since bf4 I was hooked on the teamolay element, but when they removed them from 2042 along with the lack of content from launch I was turned off because it didn't feel like a battlefield game anymore.

I play lots of DMz now anyways which has some cool teamwork elements

[thick shadow]

Either you push or get fucked

[upbeat sand]

You play sniper you can't do anything in locker

[summer zenith]

Remember when you got kicked in bf4 for killing the admin too much lmao

[upbeat sand]

BANNED

[tepid agate]

Peak Battlefield Friends. Loved their old vids

[thick shadow]

That's just asking for your KD to be lowered

[tepid agate]

People who focus on KD remind me of cod players lol

[thick shadow]

We have KD in bf stats too right

[acoustic seal]

works as intended

[upbeat sand]

I'd rather have 50 revives than 50 kills

[tepid agate]

Remember the cod Vs battlefield battle rap? 😆

[upbeat sand]

Wait why are we rapping, we have guns

[thick shadow]

I just play the games because I love the firefights and chaos

Den u have those who discriminate based on KD

[upbeat sand]

Cod players explaining why 50-3 isn't good because you still died

[acoustic seal]

50 revives looks good until you realize maybe 5 of them went on to live longer than 3 seconds

[hexed mango]

based

[upbeat sand]

Yeah dam aek sweats

And lav

And bird

And Jesus

[hexed mango]

glad you had 2 p's

[tepid agate]

COD: you just jealous of my Ks to Ds
BF : Nah you all me me me, I'm taking care of my team

[thick shadow]

Good ol times

[tepid agate]

Remove classes and the teamwork element no longer feels like Battlefield

Glad they are bringing class back

[hexed mango]

same

tho i do wish they would even out the specialists, like 4 engineers and 4 support... cause 4 assault, 3 support, 3 engineer and 4 recon is kinda weird

[thick shadow]

Let's finish this like a man son

[upbeat sand]

Seeing how the javelin can 3 shot a tank

[tepid agate]

Which specialist gets the most love?

[upbeat sand]

I wanna see what the buffed m5 is

[hexed mango]

ikr its so sexy

[hexed mango]

like most used? mackay probs

[acoustic seal]

most buffed? also mackay

[hexed mango]

most busted? mackay

[tepid agate]

I mean like most love as in attention from Devs... Luke always giving new skins and things for them

[hexed mango]

tho zain is pretty fucking fun...

[upbeat sand]

Dozer >

[tepid agate]

Mackey is a cod player

Faster down sights

[hexed mango]

still eternally sad that i have to play boris or crawford to use the javelin

wish the S4 specialist was engineer and not recon. but i mean 2/3 specialists so far have technically been engineer lel

[tepid agate]

They are bring the javelin to 2042??

[hexed mango]

yes lol

[tepid agate]

Wow about time lol

[hexed mango]

where have you been

[tepid agate]

Playing DMZ

[hexed mango]

L

[tepid agate]

I am up to 74 on battlepass though. Still log on once a week for missions

[hexed mango]

been done for 3 weeks now

[upbeat sand]

I don't like how cod games cant compress GB so I don't want my entire hhd to be eaten

[tepid agate]

Javelin is good in DMZ wipe out those helicopters deploying troops 😆

[hexed mango]

hdd*

[hexed mango]

javelin? helicopter? something doesnt compute

[tepid agate]

I use controller as I'm on ps5

So cool feeling the resistance for different guns

2042 the controller just vibrates

[tepid agate]

I'm looking forward to season 2

[hexed mango]

what

bro is having a seizure as well as not reading what i said

[summer zenith]

I hate controller vibrations

[tepid agate]

They are continue support for it

[hexed mango]

im so confused

mw2 or 2042?

[tepid agate]

DMZ

[hexed mango]

so mw2.

[tepid agate]

2042 is going to season 5

Lol

[hexed mango]

my bad for not understanding that you're talking about mw2 in the 2042 channel

but anyways: answer my original question of how a javelin is used to destroy a heli?

[tepid agate]

When the Heli drops the troops on the ground it stays for a short time.... Javelin away

[upbeat sand]

Isn't the javelin an lock onto tank rpg?

[hexed mango]

is it able to lock on to the heli? just cause its low?

[arctic grove]

Probably

[tepid agate]

Yeah I think so

[pastel loom]

that makes sense

[hexed mango]

i love that TI (Texas Instruments) makes the Javelin

i want to have a TI 84 CE on my Javelin

[tepid agate]

Of course I can use the stinger but the resistance on controllers from the javelin is cool

[pastel loom]

anti ground target

[hexed mango]

are we gonna be able to swap between direct and top attack?

is there a damage difference?

[summer zenith]

I love that a washing machine company made an airplane 👍

[tepid agate]

Anyways enough DMZ (god mode lol) I'll stop you guys talk away with 2042

[upbeat sand]

For some reason I just connect the with way

[arctic grove]

Lamborghini tractors tho

[summer zenith]

Epic

[hexed mango]

So based on a google search, Javelin just locks to any heat sig, and can technically lock onto aircraft, but isnt designed to effectively target them, so i guess if the heli was parked or hovering, then its a target

[mossy badge]

Dude war zone ii is just 23 gb

[summer zenith]

Can't you lock oonnte ground with a javelin in cod?

[hexed mango]

on to the ground?

like... the ground?

[upbeat sand]

Huh didn't know that

[summer zenith]

Yes

[hexed mango]

uh

ground doesnt really emit heat normally

[summer zenith]

They can in mw

[hexed mango]

unless its a volcano or smth

[mossy badge]

now you know bro

[upbeat sand]

But the game isn't my type of game soo

Back to the original fallout turn based

[summer zenith]

Rpg's aren't for vehicles in cod

[hexed mango]

rpg is different from a javelin tho

[mossy badge]

👍

[arctic grove]

23 now, 150 soon tho

[hexed mango]

man nv spoiled me so much so when i played fo2 i was so fucking bored

gonna replay fo4 right now

[summer zenith]

Its still in the rocket launchers tab on cod

[mossy badge]

[hexed mango]

yeah its a launcher, not a rocket propelled grenade (RPG)

[summer zenith]

Everyone calls it an rpg so who cares

[hexed mango]

i do

[upbeat sand]

i spend 3-4 hours downloading warzone

and spend 30 mins playing just to uninstall

[hexed mango]

cause javelin is not an rpg

the rpg-7 is an rpg

[summer zenith]

Does't matter what you call it

[hexed mango]

sorta does

seeing as they are completely different

[summer zenith]

Not really

[mossy badge]

it won't take a hour to download 23 gb
Maybe 10-15 minutes

[hexed mango]

ok so you ask me for a AA missile launcher and i give you an RPG, we'll see how you fare

[upbeat sand]

here in aus it takes me an hour to download a less than 10gb battlefield 2042 patch

[hexed mango]

(spoiler: it wont go well)

[summer zenith]

[hexed mango]

you appear not to contain it

[upbeat sand]

i find the 1942 portal gevhwr reload strangely satifying

especiall the empty\

[mossy badge]

I think you need to get a better service provider maybe

[next onyx]

It has a good reload.

[hexed mango]

oh hey carpo is online, time to bombard him with questions!

[upbeat sand]

australian NBN be like

but actually it takes about less than 7 mins to download

but then steam takes the next hour patching, installing and verifying every file

come on

[arctic grove]

Steam moment lol

[mossy badge]

No bro it never took that long

[hexed mango]

steam has an interesting way of installing and downloading lel

it likes to allocate resources to doing only 1 at once rather than async

[arctic grove]

It might have been a conpressed download that's why

[upbeat sand]

ok ill try installing warzone and i will return when its done

and see how long it was

[royal swan]

Where the fuck is enders I got a bug that is worth bitching about

[summer zenith]

1 or 2?

[hexed mango]

the specialist bios included in 3.2 look kinda cool

[upbeat sand]

2

[hexed mango]

please dont bring him here

[royal swan]

Yo what did way do to you

[hexed mango]

dont ruin this moment of peace

everything

[arctic grove]

Peace was never an option

[royal swan]

Fuck peace, there is no peace

[hexed mango]

democracy is non-negotiable

[arctic grove]

So is dictatorship

[hexed mango]

this is what way did

[hexed mango]

not to liberty prime

[summer zenith]

2 isn't that big

[hexed mango]

ok. if Storm Ward for RAO comes out. im coping that shit immediately.

[upbeat sand]

newest battlefield 2042 reviews on steam are 71 positive, 58 negative
warzone 2's newest are 18 positive and 42 negative

of january 24

[hexed mango]

bruh carpo used a fucking AI voice for his VO in his yt video

[upbeat karma]

Why do I keep seeing people only under level 100 or over level 5000?

[hexed mango]

5000? lol

[upbeat karma]

Hold up, I'll send a picture to your dms if thats alr?

[hexed mango]

i mean im S200 so i guess you havent seen me

[upbeat sand]

max level is S999

[hexed mango]

sure lol

[upbeat sand]

which 1 day there will be a way to many S999s

[hexed mango]

doubt it seeing as the so called "best player" is only like S500 rn

[upbeat sand]

which is when the next 3 games release like in 2080+

when 2042's playerbase will become similar to bf4

just S999s everywhere

[hexed mango]

they thought the S was a 5

[arctic grove]

Hello i having problems Matchmaking with cross play is there something wrong with the server?

[hexed mango]

#direct-communication

[arctic grove]

Thanks !

[upbeat sand]

i think its connected to the content creator playtest for 3.,2

[hexed mango]

what

the logic there is miraculously missing

the playtest happened back in december.

[upbeat sand]

wait really

dang

[hexed mango]

yes lol

only reason people are talking now is cause the NDA was up

i think there were some other ones scattered in january, but they are not happening right now, that is 100% certain

and even if they were, it would not effect main server usage to the level you'd expect to cause complete server failure

[upbeat sand]

I need my s3 t1 badge

Idk if I have enough time tho

still no date for 3.2?

I played BF2042 until night... Had a bit of sleep but nothing big.

Oh damn

I'm sorry you played 2042

I've been so discouraged from 2042, the only mode i enjoy is tank superiority

I'm Breakthrough main

Sometimes I check Portal official modes

[solemn stratus]

Breakthtrough is the best

[potent trench]

I really wish more Asian people plays on Rush
It's hard to get a match on Rush on Asian servers

[pastel loom]

rush is fun and a more compact experience

unlike conquest which is all over the place

[jovial jay]

Precisely

Scattered combats are never fun

[chilly jacinth]

conquest usually has objectives with a high concentration of players

which shifts throughout the match

[pastel loom]

that causes a fatigue to me
it's a steamroll

[remote meteor]

are they fixing the breakthrough queue bug finally?Where you have to restart your game or play a round of another mode to be able to queue?I hate that error

[silk surge]

On top of the damage indicator coming back, marksman bonus is coming back as well.

It was datamined by tempy a while ago, but it's returning in the next weeks update.

[fathom osprey]

oddly, other than this single clip, i havent found any other example of the marksman bonus from all of the 3.2 gameplay

[idle lion]

Prolly causs not many played with snipers

[fathom osprey]

i saw a few shots that looked like they should have gotten it but ig not

[idle lion]

Maybe its 200m+

Or headshot only+ 150m+

[vivid onyx]

8 players got banned for disrespectful and teabagging there account got pulled they no longer able to play I know some players in here hasnt said anything cause they are embarrassed of themself

[idle lion]

Oh good

Finally sportsmanship is coming to bf

bought a new skin, now I'm hobo Jake Gyllenhaal

[ancient peak]

Just 4 more days until 3.2

[shy latch]

looking forward for the patchnotes

[quaint vector]

What.? Update..? When...

[shy latch]

does anyone know why people is asking for player ping under the BFB new icon scoreboard tweet?

I mean, we already have that, should work better but is there

[shy latch]

where?

who?

why?

[quaint vector]

I dunno.

[shy latch]

[grizzled whale]

its mcboris

[pearl ridge]

Fully levelled the battle pass. Should I bother buying it?

[patent path]

if you like the skins

[idle lion]

what in the absolute fuck... i just got the 2 worst maps back to back to back in BT like Hourglass Breakaway Hourglass

[pearl ridge]

One thing my years of playing TF2 did to me is making me say “wanker” derisively whenever I headshot a particularly annoying enemy

Usually enemy snipers who have parked themselves in some inaccessible corner

Such as this one dickhead with a railgun (t1 no less) on top of the cube on spearhead

He kept going back up there

What genius thought it’d be a good idea to make spawn beacons universal to recons

[hybrid totem]

That goes back a ways

[pearl ridge]

And not something normal like a spotting tool

Bfv forcing snipers to bring a spotting scope or flares was actually smart.

Made them actually contribute

Beacons will just make them camp harder.

[pastel loom]

the flares are no longer effortless to pull like in bf1

bf1 whether you shoot at the ground or the air
same large radius

[shy latch]

recently I heard from someone that Hourglass rework will come with S5, did anyone hear/read something like this somewhere?

[grizzled blaze]

forgot to reply to this last night (got muted cause of a no-no word) but i genuinely thought those penguins were B1 Lancers at first

[jaunty fjord]

when to delete lis tv missile

Boris and Crawford's skills are not engineers at all, dice should change them

[low timber]

And combine it with a Tug-s

[jaunty fjord]

After version 3.2 update, the survival environment of ground vehicles will be even worse, because Irishmen cannot carry welding torches

[idle lion]

mate youll have a built in irish system

[jaunty fjord]

This doesn't change anything, the tank will still be harassed by tv missiles, and the tank's movement speed is the slowest in all previous games

[next onyx]

People in bf5 would only run the beacon anyways so really this will be no different.

[jaunty fjord]

If dice does not delete the tv missile, then the camper tank is still the best choice

[shy latch]

Lis' tv missiles are the weakest in the whole game, and she can carry 2 with a long cooldown before recharge; why should they remove it?

[chilly jacinth]

you can even shoot it

to destroy it

[jaunty fjord]

A tv missile does 27 damage and can disgust you where the tank can't hit. Do you like to eat 3 or 4 tv missiles at once when playing tanks? Now the starting speed of the tank can't escape at all, even if there is Ads are useless, I have encountered 7 tv missiles fired at me at one time, I have no way to deal with it

[shy latch]

and talking about Lis, she'll be the most unlucky one because as engineer she can't equip half of the calss' gadgets

[jaunty fjord]

I really don’t know why Dice made individual TV missiles, which shouldn’t exist at all.

[jaunty fjord]

This doesn't change anything, she can still sicken tanks from a distance, and is a non-life-threatening disgusting tank player

[shy latch]

if you think like that, is gonna be a nightmare for you on Tuesday because there will be also Javelin as option to counter ground vehicles

[jaunty fjord]

Destroying tanks in the previous generation of battlefields required skills, but now you only need to launch TV missiles from a long distance, which does not require skills at all

[shy latch]

is not

[jaunty fjord]

Javelins and tv missiles are not of the same thing

[shy latch]

of course if you get 7 Lis' missiles all together you'll be destroyed, but again a single Lis (or also 2 Lis) doesn't destroy a tank

[jaunty fjord]

It's not the same thing that I can manually remote control the missiles from behind the bunker and I need to run out of the bunker to lock the tank at a short distance

[shy latch]

exactly, Javelin is stronger

[chilly jacinth]

javelin should one shot tanks

[jaunty fjord]

I played tanks for 20 hours, almost every game I received 3, 4 tv missiles at one time, if I didn’t have ads, I would have died a long time ago, some tank rookies even got 3, 4 just after driving the tank out of the respawn point Do you think it's fun to destroy a tv missile?

[wide shore]

To plays devils advocate. Do you think it’s fun to get pelted at by tankers sittings on a hill all game?

[jaunty fjord]

Now it is impossible to play tank-tank synergy at all, the reason is that the tanks can only camp at the respawn point due to tv missiles

[shy latch]

surely is fun to destroy tanks 😏 I've been engineer main on the past BFs

[idle lion]

you do realize TV missiles are limited to only Liz and on top of that it takes 4 rockets but liz has 2 and on top of that the reload time for a liz rocket is longer than it would take you to back up to safety

[upbeat sand]

YEEEEEEEEES

wrong cht

[wide shore]

Wrong chat, proper context

[jaunty fjord]

Think about why tank camps at the birth point. The reason is TV ballistics and strong anti-vehicle capabilities. Dice can’t even balance infantry and vehicles well. Why don’t I camp?

[wide shore]

You act like tanks camping is a 2042 problem

It’s a battlefield problem

[shy latch]

tanks camping on spawn base because they don't know how to properly play with tank, ez

[sharp marten]

THE BIRTH POINT

carpo

My man I have question for you

[jaunty fjord]

What if 3 or 4 lis shoot tv missiles at you at the same time, I will encounter this situation every time I play

[shy latch]

already??? 😳

[upbeat sand]

next week

[idle lion]

as i said you have APS built in next update

so it doesnt matter

[shy latch]

Carpo posted it just now....

[upbeat sand]

oooo

new stuff

for gold and ult editions

[lucid goblet]

update is next week, guessing they are posting them today as they are some big changes

[sharp marten]

Have you had a change to see if thermals can see through smoke?

[wide shore]

Why wouldn’t they

That’s like, the whole appeal

Not like we have night maps to take advantage of them

[lucid goblet]

we dont have access anymore, we only had the event to try them

[shy latch]

weird, patch notes were supposed to be released on Monday, oh well....

[pine roost]

Oh niel

Will give them a read after work

Im still hoping for that one glorious bullet point that will make my day

[idle lion]

"The FGM-148 Javelin now has longer lock forgiveness and has had its max range extended from 250m to 450m." thats hot

time to tracer dart and javelin those nightbirds till they return to where they came from

[pine roost]

M5 can hit from almost 600 m anyway so that’s not too bad

[jaunty fjord]

This doesn't change anything at all, I'll still choose camper, in battlefield 5 I can lead infantry into a point and in 2042 it's infantry's business I should only use ads to defend against lis damn tv missiles, that's It is the safest way. If you like to use the tank as a one-time-use ground vehicle, then I have nothing to say. The slow speed of the tank can't escape at all. I can't escape the attack point of 2042.

[shy latch]

two Italians of the Creator Network tried it and the answer is no, you can't see even friendly though the smoke (just the name with the health bar, but foes are totally hidden)

[wide shore]

Prolly cause BFV tanks were fucking invincible

Could throw an entire arsenal at them and after abusing quick repair you’re sol

[upbeat sand]

Zain can use thermals now

[pine roost]

Wdym

Can’t everyone?

[shy latch]

yeah i heard that, I don't know why DICE decided to put thermals on the XM370

[upbeat sand]

their gadget can switch

between normal and thermal scopes

[wide shore]

Pog

[jaunty fjord]

Is it invincible? As long as you work as a team, you can destroy it. You probably just don’t want to, but Lis’ tv missiles have brought individual anti-vehicles to the extreme. There is no room for tanks to survive, and there is no damn teamwork

[upbeat sand]

nvk-ss2 shotgun is also getting its own suppressor

[sharp marten]

Ah gotcha

[sharp marten]

Eh oh well I won’t lose sleep over if

[idle lion]

i am maining recon and engi

[shy latch]

it doesn't really make sense because you can't really see where you are locking/airbusting with thermals

[jaunty fjord]

You just don't want to admit that you don't want to team up to destroy tanks

[sharp marten]

Bro the new box suppressor

[wide shore]

Really? Cause last I checked. checks notes Lis cannot solo a vehicle

[upbeat sand]

their adding below radar on the heles

[wide shore]

At least not a heavy vehicle

[upbeat sand]

staying below 30M will let you be unable to lock on

[idle lion]

she can if the vehicle stays in the open, refuses to move, refuses to look for the liz, refuses to back up, refuses to put APS on

[sharp marten]

Yeah Liz rockets can solo vehicles like the RZR

[upbeat sand]

does not effect already fired missles

[pine roost]

Well seeing as the point is to hit people behind cover… meh

[idle lion]

which is the vehicles fault and deserves to get solod at that point

[wide shore]

It would take a really long time considering she gets 2 shots then has to wait forever to get another one.

[idle lion]

yeah ik

[jaunty fjord]

Do you think it is reasonable for 3 or 4 people to fire tv missiles simultaneously from a long distance to destroy tanks?

[wide shore]

By then a tank has already started to regen health

[idle lion]

youll have APS for this specific reason

[wide shore]

Yes. It’s called teamwork

The thing you said I didn’t like a second ago

Plus yeah. You’ll have APS on Tuesday. Won’t stop you entirely from getting wrecked at range but should help.

[upbeat sand]

people who own gold, ult and Y1 pass will also unlock S1 and S2 t0 season unlocks

[idle lion]

god i love the dev comments

"
Dev Comment: This is to help alleviate an issue in which players would cut their parachute and plummet to the floor without being able to redeploy the chute, hopefully this now results in less splat.
"

Splat

[wide shore]

[upbeat sand]

i wish they would just mention content creators in them

just like after nerfing a weapon they just add "You happy now ***streamer"""

[jaunty fjord]

If my tank rushes into the infantry group to kill and release ads, after fleeing the battlefield and my ads just enter the cooldown time, and at this time 3 or 4 tv missiles are fired, will I be killed by the damn tv missiles To destroy? And is it destroyed by the opponent without infantry consumption?

Why should infantry destroy tanks at a long distance without loss of life? This should be something that flying vehicles do

[sharp marten]

Most of the feed back in Twitter was actually pretty positive

[upbeat sand]

Added multiple gadgets from portal into the hands of our 2042 Specialists:
EOD Bot, Tracer Dart Gun, M18 Claymore, FGM-148 Javelin & T-UGS. just for people who dont know

[sharp marten]

Yeah but I mean no one would rush a infantry group with a tank that’s common sense

[idle lion]

if you rushed without any backup, thats your fault

[jaunty fjord]

I'd rather be killed by an agm than see a damn individual tv missile shoot at me

[echo canyon]

does bf work on widows 11 ?

[wide shore]

An individual TV missile cannot kill you anyway. They’re weaker than the M5, and much weaker than the javelin is gonna be.

You’re gonna be real upset soon when the javelin hits you for 45 damage when your APS is down

[idle lion]

"The EBLC-RAM's Insertion Beacon will now always spawn you on foot." well that sucks

[sharp marten]

Yeah next week you might wana be more worried about Javs tbh

[idle lion]

bro top down attacks as a squad is gonna be so fun

[jaunty fjord]

Who do you think is your backup? Infantry group? Who will help you fight tv missiles? Do you think your rifle can knock it out?

[sharp marten]

People are going to meme so hard

[jaunty fjord]

I've been tanking alone, who cares about you

[sharp marten]

Well usually people have infantry to protect their armor

[idle lion]

if you have an infantry group they will stop the small inf that might shoot dumb rockets at you

so that you can preserve your aps for the TV missiles

[upbeat sand]

The FXM-33 AA Missile can now lock on-to empty vehicles
Dev Comment: As with the Recoilless M5, these alterations are to aid Engineers in their role to combat vehicles.

[idle lion]

i think that means empty Air vehicles

[jaunty fjord]

If there are more than one, it is impossible for you to encounter only one tv missile when playing tanks

[upbeat sand]

The Insertion Beacon can now only be spawned upon 4 times before self-destructing

[idle lion]

not both air and gnd

[sharp marten]

Dudes trying to bring every scenario out of the book

[upbeat sand]

The Insertion Beacon no longer self-destructs if the owner spawns on it.

[idle lion]

again you have APS for this

[upbeat sand]

M18 Claymore has been scaled up 33% to help players to spot them more easily within the environment.

[wide shore]

And there’ll probably be less after the class change since less people will probably play Lis. She will become the worst engineer tbh

[idle lion]

exactly

[jaunty fjord]

Yeah? I don't see anyone destroying tv missiles, everyone is playing their own games

[idle lion]

facepalm dude i just said the inf group is for killing other infantry that fires dumb rockets

[wide shore]

And that’s coming from somebody who has her T1. Not being able to run her with an ammo box or something helpful is just gonna make her the worst.

[idle lion]

you are in charge of defending yourself with your APS against TV

[sharp marten]

You know you can switch to your top turret and shoot them right or shoot them with your HMG attached to your tank

[jaunty fjord]

If my aps is on cooldown, why would you want to destroy my tank from a long distance without life-threatening, this should not be the way the game is played

[upbeat sand]

Recoilless M5

Increased the acceleration and top speed of the projectile. m5 got no damage buff

[idle lion]

if your aps is on cooldown thats your fault

[wide shore]

People shoot down my TV missiles all the time

[idle lion]

you couldve fallen back

but nope

[upbeat sand]

Prox Sensor

Moved the Prox Sensor to the Open Gadget slot.
Dev Comment: The Gadget was too powerful in the Grenade slot and had a very large pickrate in the Grenade slot, this move is to reduce Prox Sensor spam to drive toward a healthier meta.

[upbeat sand]

ive never had someone shoot down mine

[next onyx]

APS For tanks should assist with survival at least.

[idle lion]

prolly cause you come from unexpecting angles

[idle lion]

and it will

[wide shore]

Shit.

[jaunty fjord]

Do you think I would switch cockpits in a complex battlefield situation? What should I do if I switch and another player takes my driving seat?

[upbeat sand]

yeah you shouldnt shoot it right in front

try hitting the top or back

[wide shore]

I don’t always. But sometimes you don’t really have a choice

[idle lion]

yeah and thats why you teamwork with a squad where you have gunners in your tank

[upbeat sand]

well if you do just shit and charge

[next onyx]

That being said.

[upbeat sand]

shift

[idle lion]

if the enemy is teamworking you should too

[upbeat sand]

SHIFT

[jaunty fjord]

Then why do you infantry want to destroy my tank from a long distance without loss of life?

[upbeat sand]

SHIFT

[upbeat sand]

ignore

[wide shore]

Why do you want to farm infantry at long range with impunity?

[idle lion]

because they saw you as an easy target who doesnt have APS and hasnt fallen back

[jaunty fjord]

No one cares, you think too much, no one will get in your car unless your tank is very good

[wide shore]

Personally I don’t want 100-0 BF1 artillery trucks back.

[upbeat sand]

Utility weapons are now called "Tactical"

[idle lion]

then why are you blaming the enemy for cooperating together

[spiral folio]

Sounds like the most optimal engagement?

[upbeat sand]

Added a new biography submenu to the "Specialists" collection screen aimed at helping you get to know the Specialists, their backstories and what they stand for.

[idle lion]

if you cant cooporate that doesnt mean everyone shouldnt

[upbeat sand]

[next onyx]

THANK FUCK.

[upbeat sand]

ive seen plenty

ive seen people be in a full tank

[upbeat sand]

yeah its much better than bf4 thankfully

[spiral folio]

I kinda hope objects are also opaque

[jaunty fjord]

If your tank kills are low or not in a good position no one gets on your tank at all

[idle lion]

dude this isnt as big of a problem as you think... just get in a vc and get some people together in a squad

[upbeat sand]

Improved responsiveness of melee attack animations

[spiral folio]

Or at least like dense objects

[upbeat sand]

what

[spiral folio]

Ie concrete barriers or walls

[sharp marten]

I mean that’s usually not a problem for me but the best method you could do in a tank is SHOOT N SCOOT

[upbeat sand]

Improve melee takedown registration on fast moving targets.

[idle lion]

thats what he said to poeticwhisper earlier

[jaunty fjord]

How many people do you think are willing to do it, almost no one when I play, I can only rely on myself

[idle lion]

dude look in this discords voice chats where it says BF2042 Squad #x

and join one

[upbeat sand]

when you get a teamworking squad

[idle lion]

its not that hard

[shy latch]

Glacier Top: Previously a wide open expanse with little cover to protect yourself, the penguins have created an outpost settlement with buildings to battle through as you establish control of the immediate area.
damn, I knew penguins had conspiracy.... 🐧

[upbeat sand]

darrn it penguins

[sharp marten]

THEYRE IN THE DAMN ICE

[upbeat sand]

there was a reason they added penguins

WHEN THE COLD BREW HITS

[shy latch]

penguins are planning the destruction of human being

[idle lion]

the penguins support whichever side the buildings are a part of in BT

[shell ermine]

They nerfing MacKay's movement. What the fuck. Are they at least buffing everyone else's movement ?

[upbeat sand]

Added an option called "Damage Numbers Visibility" under DISPLAY > CROSSHAIR > HIT INDICATOR.
Dev Comment: This feature is experimental and turned OFF by default. When enabled, the damage dealt to enemies will be visible in the "Skull Train feed” (bottom center of the Screen) to let the player know how much damage was dealt.

they're bringing back the damage numbers

[sharp marten]

We’re damage numbers a thing in past games?

[spiral folio]

Yes

[sharp marten]

I can’t member

[upbeat sand]

bf1 and v

[idle lion]

huh?

ohhh

1 and v

yeah

[spiral folio]

Thats how i know sniping was worse in bf5 than 1

[upbeat sand]

Added brand new physical landing animations when jumping or falling, different animations should now play when hitting the ground from different fall heights - don’t go too high, you may splat.

[idle lion]

i forgot those two cause i wasnt a big fan of either of them

[upbeat sand]

dice saying Splat 2

nice that their adding new animations to the soldier

[idle lion]

💀

[jaunty fjord]

Teamwork is fine of course, but your infantry has no life loss and destroys my tank with tv missiles from 600m outside. Is this a reasonable play?

[upbeat sand]

i liked the animation work and effort in bfv

nice to see more animations in the game

[shy latch]

next BF will be in the year 2242 when the humans are already extinct and the penguins will engage a war against the dolphins to dominate the world

Supporting teammates by resupplying, healing or repairing now gives you score. This is shown in a new column in the scoreboard.

[upbeat sand]

nah its gonna be like that athiest future from southpark

[jaunty fjord]

The specialist of lis should not exist

[upbeat sand]

Fixed issue where repairing the Ranger would reward Healing XP instead of Repairing. XP. The Ranger might be a No-Pat's best friend, but it's not an actual puppy.

DICEEEEE

RANGER WANTS TO BE A REAL BOY

[jaunty fjord]

2042 doesn't even have a squad management system

[idle lion]

how do you pat the ranger tho

[jaunty fjord]

what a joke

[next onyx]

CALLED IT.

[grizzled blaze]

based

add more falk skins

[upbeat sand]

Soldier health starts automatically regenerating 1 second after being revived at the regular passive health regeneration rate (5HP/s)

[spiral folio]

Just remove parachute but dont tell anyone

[grizzled blaze]

also more vehicle skins

[spiral folio]

Itd be hillarious

[upbeat sand]

question is how much damage

[upbeat sand]

buff damage while falling

instant if its not under 5cm

[grizzled blaze]

also @next onyx can you link the patch notes im too lazy to get it myself tia ilu

[upbeat sand]

https://www.ea.com/en-gb/games/battlefield/battlefield-2042/news/battlefield-2042-update-notes-3-2-0

[grizzled blaze]

thaŋks

[spiral folio]

Remove fall damage since people can just use parachutes anyway

Parachute: Lowered the cooldown between being able to deploy your parachute after recently cutting it from 1s to 0.6s

[grizzled blaze]

i thought the tier 0 thing meant i could get the lis skin from pass 1

fucking crying

still kicking myself for not getting FOMO'd

Crawford’s Mounted Vulcan now deals 0.1% damage per bullet to tanks at a fire rate of 1200 RPM.

[upbeat sand]

love dev comment humour

Lis is buffed

Mackay

Mackay's Grapple Hook Range changed from 30m to 24m
Mackay’s Nimble Trait bonus movement speed has been reduced when zoomed in particular with heavy weapons (AMR, LMG, Sniper Rifle). Bonus movement speed with Assault Rifles, DMRs, and Lever Action Rifles has also been reduced but SMGs and Pistols will still have similar speeds

[spiral folio]

Rockets damage is doubled and rockets gain more fuel each time they fly through somebody

[upbeat sand]

Hacked targets should now be targetable by teammates, similar to targets painted by the SOFLAM, to allow more synergies with the Engineer class. Launchers like the Recoilless will now be able to lock-on to hacked targets via this method.

jesus dice

Occupied Helicopters will no longer start spinning around when destroyed on the ground.

[spiral folio]

Why not

[next onyx]

Mackay's grappling hook should not have been touched.

His nimble perk is the problem.

[grizzled blaze]

christ fucking god thank you dice

[spiral folio]

We should hunt down people who defended classes for this evil wrought upon us

[grizzled blaze]

i wanted classes back and sent death threats over this but now that they got added i want specialists because change is bad

[spiral folio]

-writes in book-

-glares-

[grizzled blaze]

ngl while i still woulda preferred classes and generics i have no actual issue with specialists

[spiral folio]

Its ok we have plenty of room on the fire

[grizzled blaze]

the whole thing with the specific equipment for each is a good idea and it made me think that like

[spiral folio]

Yes we got it. Fire.

[grizzled blaze]

if youre gonna have that why not just have specialists then

it gave us lis anyhow so

[spiral folio]

Lis wasnt part of class nerf

[grizzled blaze]

idk this chat has nobody post in it

[grave prism]

what's the point in thermal scopes if they can see through smoke grenades

[grizzled blaze]

not what im talkin about

[grave prism]

like there's 0 dark maps

[grizzled blaze]

....that's the entire point of a thermal scope?

[spiral folio]

They literally said they cant

[upbeat sand]

Just like voip

[grave prism]

ya i missed the t i meant cant

[grizzled blaze]

how do i even enable voil

voip

[grave prism]

like what's the point in not being able to see through smoke

[upbeat sand]

People asked for voip

They added voip

Same people said why did you add it no one uses it

[grizzled blaze]

ive seen other people use it i cant even find the option

[upbeat sand]

It's in the audio option

[spiral folio]

You would use a thernal scope to highlight enemies in shadowy areas or behind bushes

[grave prism]

idk ill wait to see how they work, but seems kinda letdown for the thermal scopes

[grizzled blaze]

do you know where in audio ill check later

[spiral folio]

Like thermals arent xray vision they just make what is visible more visible

[spiral folio]

So like if an eneny is sniping from a container window you'll see the container walls as dark but then the sniper will be brighter color

[grave prism]

Oh that actually sounds useful

[spiral folio]

Or if an enemy casper is next to a bush you'll see hin

[upbeat sand]

Wait are the thermal optics everything you see through it will be a thermal or will just infantry be thermal

[grave prism]

that makes sense thank you i can see why they would be used now

[spiral folio]

If hes behind a bush likely the bush will obscure some of him but not all

[upbeat sand]

Give the ranger back healing ribbon on repair

DICE

RANGER IS A REAL BOY

[shell ermine]

In that everyone else was so slow by comparison. Everyone else should've been buffed, no need to nerf MacKay

[spiral folio]

Unless the walls are cardboard you wont see through em

[grave prism]

i hope we get some night time maps at some point 🙂

[spiral folio]

Thats up to dice

[idle lion]

does anyone elses gun just fucking switch from primary to secondary randomly

[upbeat sand]

NOPE

CAPS

[idle lion]

is your caps locks button broken bean

[snow badge]

New update looks swag as fuck

[upbeat sand]

NO;E

[snow badge]

🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃

[idle lion]

is your p button broken too?

[upbeat sand]

the question is what will be the most forgetful season will be at the end of 2042's life cycle

[idle lion]

im calling it season 3

[upbeat sand]

Basically what will 2042's version of Apex S6 be

[sharp marten]

Dice looking at this feedback “This is doing numbers”

[spiral folio]

I kinda wish theyd release a visual on the thermal

[snow badge]

season 1 probably

[upbeat sand]

I'd say no since it was the first and had exposure

[snow badge]

not a bad season but 2 and 3 were better in my opinion

[upbeat sand]

Yeah they definitely where

[snow badge]

exposure’s not my favorite map ngl

[idle lion]

tbh i had more fun in 1 and 2 than 3

[snow badge]

aside from b1 and b2 the map feels a bit empty

[upbeat sand]

I kinda miss when the game had the 3 options of aow, hz and portal back before S2

[snow badge]

fun on rush and bt though

[upbeat sand]

And also because of the new menu we lost the beautiful HZ background of your specialist on the exodus

[snow badge]

aaaaah true

man the hazard zone aesthetic is just so dope

that’s why I use the hazard zone playercard

[upbeat sand]

Like what if on the current menu clicking hazard zone sent you to the HZ one instead of matchmake

[grave prism]

OMG THE PP2000 i loved that in 3 and 4

i hope they add it to aow

[upbeat sand]

Yeah they are

The p2000 has been in game for portal at launch

[uncut bay]

immune to lock ons under 30m, because that was definitely needed

[upbeat sand]

Their just adding it to aow for specialists

[snow badge]

As a transport chopper enthusiast this pleases me

Fuck other helis though

[inner roost]

Wow DICE fixed Lis TGM on console, I can't believe it

[grave prism]

oh.. LOL i played like one portal game of like 1942 vs bf bc2 when it first came out and never touched that mode again

[uncut bay]

have they removed the cannon from transports yet? if not they can get fucked too

[snow badge]

What’s wrong with it

[uncut bay]

what isn't

[snow badge]

I prefer the gl for farming infantry on breakthrough lmao

[upbeat sand]

I'd say since them being lower it would make it better to hit them with an rpg or use a tracer dart
