With slightly blue tint not as much as bfiii has
Surely thats not just me!?
I haven’t played much BF4 yet I only recently started
Imo battlefront ii is the most atmospheric game that dice has made bf1 and battlefront ii are soooooooo beautiful
If I can get an audience with Dice I will try haha
Urban or aaanything close to CQB
You don't like the urban maps????
Sad fish emoji made me think that
lol
Some building are accessible
No there is arica harbour
But its not a “solid” one
There a small town part ig haha
hourglass and kaleidoscope could have been nice urban maps
but then there's still a massive open space even between building
True but there aren’t any
I was mostly hyped for kaleidoscope
Hourglass one concept looks sooo cool
Maybe they could overhaul kaleidoscope and add an objective covering a large section of the sky scrapers
battlefront 2 looks incredible
Agreed
yea and run beautifully too
I rarely ever get a performance dip in battlefront 2
I also like how they design maps with different playstyle in one, like Hoth from open space engagement to close quarter, same with Naboo, but Urban
That one part off in the corner was pretty fun a small square surrounded by housing
Great for tdb
Tdm*
This looks like Blade Runner and ghost in the shell scene
Would be great if they added a CQB focused map to 2042 tho
only differences is that we're literally blade running in 2042

from one field to another
They can do crazy things because it's set in future
But haven’t like wtf
Devs holding back fr
We needa hit them with a steaming hot pile of ideas
Bro cod cold War trailer had 1 second of stuff related to China and they had issues with it
I swear china sucks man they always winge about something
China is cool just the government

Thats what I mean 😅
Alg
Just because of a protest
Sorry

Thats sad I cant lie
lets drop this topic please
Dude protest is a big thing we can't say just because of a protest 👀
And let's not go further
Here it is
Ok fair enough
Excited for class rework
Dw wanna get pol&@$@“
Yessirrr
Yes!! it's gonna be interesting to see what folks think of it, i liked the change of playstyles from what i got to play
Getting some fucked packet loss today. Anyone else?
I cant wait for the engineer to be be the only class that can use the M5 recoilless
Its gonna be great!
I don't know I don't play 2042 but I never thought of class rework, it will just restrict things and personally I never had any issues with specialist system what I want is something very fundamental and that is shooting (gunplay) must feel good and maps that's all
But because it's community request and they listening is cool
Yeah the reduced amount of rocket spam was great, MBT's no longer feel like rolling steel coffins 
Sometimes that restriction is a good thing
Exactly like idk about u but on gen4 all anyone ever does is spam the shi- outta the M5 the second they die to anyone displaying usage of the rare braincells
Got dudes teleporting all over the place here
Rip

any date for the 3.2 update ?
Good night💤😴
Update 3.2 next week
See u in the morning haha
Probably tuesday
thanks
imagine we had the blue note sound for the su 57 felon 😍 😍
Fighter handling is so fucked
Half my bullets were whiffing with that stupid packet loss
I have top tier ping, it’s not that.
Hell I fired a rocket at a tank and the damn thing wasn’t even there anymore when the shot landed.
Hi, every time I try to access a TDM game, after the countdown, I have a black screen shown for a few seconds and then I'm sent back to main menu.
No issue with any other game mode and repairing the game in EA play didn't help.
Recently started happening, anyone else got the same issue?
Europe servers
Kinda sad that DMRs wont have a class proficiency. I was thinking of a CQC loadout for Rao that includes T-UGS as class gadget and VCAR with close quarters attachments. Would be a powerful combo if DMRs got some kind of a bonus when used as recon.
It’s very on point for them to spend like two years making a class system and then fucking it up anyway
It looks good overall, but there are some things I wish they did differently imo.
For instance... Why in the hell does assault have C5? Sundance and Mackay have no business running around with AT gadgets.
Why even play engineer when Sundance is still able to dive tanks with C5?
Support’s ‘perk’ being a faster draw time with SMGs is legitimately worthless
exactly what i feared, this half assed class system won't cut it even if they do manage to balance things correctly for once
should've just left it the way it was
Would rather consistency in the end.
Know who I am fighting.
Hey look they're guaranteed to run x.
It's funny, in the feedback loop, people constantly mentioned that assaults should not have C5... But apparentely that went unheard.
I don't mind Assault having c5 but I don't think they should have claymores.
What’s worse than a nightbird?
A teleporting nightbird.
Holy fucking shit this lag is bad.
Agreed. Claymores are meant to fortify chokepoints... Which is like the opposite of what assaults should be doing.
I had the guy locked up and he literally appeared behind me.
Also I shot him down just a couple minutes before and wouldn’t you know it he got another nightbird.
But as a whole I don't think three classes should have claymores.
Should be left to just recon and support.
I fucking hate pilot mains.
Switch them over to mines.
There's going to be claymores everywhere now 😔
Hell I'd be up for two classes having C4 but not three.
But my perception of c4 is just its pre nerf state and probably won't be too bad.
I think this update will definitely change the game for the better though.
Functionally, assault is only getting buffed. They’re built to ignore their teams now. Double ammo, high mobility, self healing as standard
I personally have learned to live with the specialist system, and I wish they would put the resources on other stuff. But I'm fine with the class rework coming.
Oh and naturally they get to pick armour.
Eh they're also getting nerfed in that they cannot run ammo crates.
Which is how I ran my assault.
Self preservation will only get them so far with a single medpen too.
The smoke launcher will be an interesting choice.
I run my assault loadout how it is in 1 and V: fuck vehicles up and keep people off my back while I do it.
Zain's passive is about to become more sought out 😁
I've been using smokes for a while but I think an immediate option for smoke and incentive to run it will do me fine.
Aye.
Me a Zain Main not caring about health be like;
I actively dislike every assault specialist aside from Dozer because at least he’s funny
Oh speaking of smokes... Thermal will see through it.
I'm also glad they're making proxy sensors a gadget not keeping it to a thorwable.
Opaque means unable to be seen through.
Wait what
that's one good thing
If I got it correct.
yes opaque is not transparent
I thought opaque meant like... high opacity... as in, transparent.
Yeah I think thermals are fine for purely eliminating environmental hinderances and highlighting a target.
Opaque is an annoying word I'm only just starting to get used to it.
anyone else??? or do I have to open a support case
👀
Sundance is a flying bastard with stupid regenerating cluster grenades. Mackay has that dumb grapple, is a twitchy bastard, and has the edgiest skins. Zain is explosive spam personified and his perk is bs.
Alex! Can we get weapon proficiency for DMRs?
The way that the thermals have been worded makes me think of the thermal sight at ghosts where it rendered the world around it but the thermal was its own.
Dozer at least is fun to use and otherwise is nonoffensive.
Zain is good, His launcher is a bit too powerful in its current state but I don't think he's super problematic.
Sure, it will be on the new class, clowns 🤡
😄
Ah yes, the no-clowns.
Serious talk tho, why would you want that, and in which class do you think it would be
No worries
I want to run Rao with VCAR
Was just wondering if anyone else has tried opening a TDM match recently
i'll open a case but it'll probs fix itself with the new update 🤷♂️
I want support to have an actually useful weapon ability.
But you can
A DMR perk? Recon cause recon things. But what kind of perk?
Draw time on a largely underpowered class of gun that is already quick to come out? What is the fucking point?
Safe to say I don't know.
I would go for better hipfire.
But that only applies to one gun.
Yes, but I suck as sniper, and I think DMRs would fit the recon class enough to justify a proficiency 😁
If anyone needs DMRs it’s support so the medics can stick to mid range and move forward and back to revive as necessary.
No, none of us have.
Which is your favorite battlefield iii map ??? 
yes and yes, you'll get your moneys worth with what its at now
environmental smoke, but cannot see through smoke grenades
So im really good with any gun ive come to find out
And if not DMRs then support should by definition have machine guns
I already have the game but i stopped playing after season 2
Engineer’s carrying so much shit I’m surprised they can even move.
Way you need to take that as a sign
Nah u should use the m44
My handsy wandsy owo.
Extremely underrated. You're actually the one who made me start using it.
lifes changed

High accurate single hit guns are not my thing unfort. But I do plan to improve my aim.
It's niche but so god damn effective.
M44 is 2 shot except head
I know and that's where I fall flat. My aim is ok on PC but it's not that good.
ew.
Aim assist cringe
Eh just turn off the zoom snap, Normal aim assist is decent enough.
Fym ew
cringe input
It's literally just another input choice there's nothing cringe about it lol.
VCAR go brrr
v cringe
Use a laser sight.
Weird answer, but honestly? Tehran Highway
Laser sight, Short barrel, micro t1 and a close combat drum.
I should dig that clip up again.
Ever since bo2 zombies my trigger finger is as fast ans any wepon can fire
I've had a decent trigger finger since bf1.
I wonder if GVT and Rorsch gets the ability to hold breath with 6x scope when real snipers get a proficiency 
Black ops 2 was fun, I just didn't see the values in the semis because I just didn't consistently use them.
Maybe it's just a placebo, but I feel like the laser sights does very little to hipfire. I use lasersight on crossbow, and still sometimes misses at melee range with hipfire.
I love bo2
yo Alex, nice job with thermal optics (even tho I didn't try them yet) and looking forward to use MTAR 😊
you know that chick who can see enemies through walls and shit she sucks
And no thermal 6x for GVT 
The VCAR has some of the weirdest (usage) stats of all guns, its always headache inducing to dig into it
the range on it sucks, and the battery on it sucks and the speed
By the time I see someone thru a wall, I'm already outside shooting them
Is it a proper Tavor or is it that silly ultra compact prototype version from 4
MTAR.
It's the bf3 MTAR we are getting.
That reminds me.
I mained the MTAR back at black ops 2.
we're getting new weapons
Thank you, hopefully they are well received
Ugh why can we never get guns that actually see service
The mtar was pretty good
I'm just glad to find out the m27 was the HK416.
Though.
If I went back I'd be a SCAR H ENJOYER.
Because anyone who knows me knows I enjoy my SCAR.
The mtar is too damn stubby.
@ripe hedge Speaking of hipfire. Could you please increase the hipfire accuracy on the crossbow? Even when you have a laser sight equipped, it's comically inconsistent.
PP goes brrrrt (kinda)
(I need help)
AEK-971 FTW
I'm curious how much it will change the Gameplay after 3.2
Because then the proportion between cool stuff vs M4 clones would be insane 😄
Alex, in the notes it said about a new long range scope but was not mentioned again unlike the new suppressor for S22, was it accidental or what? 
It has a weird firing sound, Kinda akin to the nailgun.
ALEX.
I know you don't like it.
But please add my IMI Galil or ACE Galil. :(
Big whoopsie ignore you saw anything 😄
👀
Ain’t stopping you from getting the bloody F90 in
Galil vs FAL
Temporyal datamined a 40x scope alongside the thermals. I would bet money on the fact that it's that one.
I want another anti material rifle
Modern PTRD.
I will admit that's the one gun I wanted to see in bf5.
As much as I hate AMR's.
40x scope wtf💀💀💀
Nothing new, BF4 had a 40x scope
I remember
See no picture, therefore is nothing
And you could even put it on the Mare’s Leg 
It's going to feel like you're playing with a billion sensitivity when ADSing 
We better be able to put the 40x on the GVT as a reference to the Mare’s Leg
that differences from the NTW by....?
Don’t encourage the fucking campers
ahot gun. 
Super hot
I want a double barrel shotgun that can actually kill something at a distance beyond having the thing shoved in their mouth.
40x on the Rorsch 
Night time map looks nice
Nice 👍
95 dmg = 2 shot
I kinda want a night map that has enough light sources that you don’t need special equipment all the time but can also be turned off, kinda like of Infiltration of Shanghai was supposed to be.
Is there a possiblity for the AS Val and AN-94 to be added?
Want one that is a single shot bold that goes thru tanks armor and is a 1 ahot
Ye ik the BSV exists, i just want the actual as val since it fires faster iirc
BSV can turn into either the AS VAL or the VSS but a straight AS VAL most likely no.
Asval fire
Yeah 900 RPM original, I think the BSV with close combat and short barrel fires 850.
Where can I send img
The subtle lightning from night time. The smooth background city glow. Oh my god it even shows AA guns tracers on the night sky.
Try sending me one.
Atmospheric

Always will
AS VAL nope 🙂
You should keep the med pen multi class uwu
Way, imagine a thermal on a sidearm 
That's the anti material rifle I want @next onyx
I am curious what the unlock requirements for the thermals.
Hopefully not too annoying.
I hope it will be hard
My guess is ether
kills past # distance
Or
kills while aiming
kills with eod bot or defibs
I actually want to, maybe, someday, make it so you can swap between the XM8 LMG, XM8 and XM8C using the +Menu....
Strong emphasis on the Maybe, Someday
Normal as val looks better kato
Yo alex got a question
As the 5x and 3.5x was # kills past # distance
And 4.5x was # kills while aiming down sights.
Regarding sound effects
yeah the actual AS Val looks sleeker, bsv has the ugly stock
it does but it would be a disgustingly huge waste of resources, might as well just reskin the stock at that point
When you run over a lamps on the street, what sound effect did yall use
The guy that did the concept art, has some more art for division with more drones 
Kinda like how it almost really works irl 
Epic
You are right too
if we're getting new guns i prefer them to actually be new
I do hope we get all the launchers from BF3 Portal at some point
Considering the ideas that you have planned regarding how differently weapons will handle with mag types I can imagine it being a thing.
no idea but i can ask
Which gun you want to see 👀
I would like to see something weird futuristic stuff
I would try to explain it, but I would have to send you a link to this sound effect because I want to know if that's what it is
I would crash into light posts in BFH in my helicopter and due to how helicopters handled in that game you'd take 60 damage lol.
new DMR, we're overdue for one
same, i don't want anything we have now, just something new and creative rather than slightly modified modern guns
I just don't want a season 4 weapon to be a sniper cause I am bad with snipers. -.-
Gyrojet 
But a new 2042 sniper would be good for those people who've been waiting for one.
Honestly, I love what they did with the jet, making it be able to go Vtol
No sniper in S4
DMR or SMG would be nice
(THANK YOU)
TIME TO GET STOCKED UP ON COFFEE AND GO NUTS GRINDING THE SEASON 4 WEAPONS OUT REEEEEEEEEEEEE!
yo those are niiice

Gyrojet could be interesting tbh, as the current irl ones are the same from the 1960s so not really good, but imagine if they’d been developed further
Alex, if you don't mind me asking, what do you work on like textures or like modelling
Meant more the ammo type
I want an incendiary ammo type
As Gyrojet is a minuscule missile
My gun knowledge is limited to press r to reload
None, i work on the spreadsheets and assembly and balancing and bug-adding and then removing from the guns
Gyrojets are mega silent as well compared to normal bullets, without a suppressor!
Removing the guns
What

I got it
Bug removing
What is bug adding
🤔
Ah oh, also, you should tell the person who focuses on bug fixing that there's a reload glitch for the medic lady on her heal gun like, sometimes the animation won't play
Alex, as your personal opinion what do you think about the Gyrojet concept?
Time to build houses on Terraria.
Fuck removing bugs were adding them now 😈
Is what i do when my ADHD kicks in at the wrong times. I try to set 0.09 dispersion on a gun, and set 9.00 instead and then i get the gift of a reddit post
Yeah the dude does clean work, just a shame he didn't draw an "engineer drone" 🙂
Fuck me I feel that.

At least it’s not as bad as in Fallout 4 where McGreedy’s perk gave 2000% Vats accuracy instead the 20% 
Alex I will fight any of those Reddit dweebs for you
I don't use Reddit
Sometimes when I search for some weird bugs happening in game Reddit helped me Or a random YouTube video
Personally i think it sounds "cool" as in mad science. Its like "lets build a jet powered car!"... is it good? no. Reliable? hell no. Cool? Yes
everyone is saying what they would like added to the game, but what would you like added
That would be a perfect addition, you would have to pay to shoot bull ets
Meanwhile a Rorsch round is a rod 
Ea taking notes rn
a bucketload of Czech guns
Huh
Yeah most Reddit users are complete dweebs
Though I think the Rorsch Mag holds the Sabot round plus fresh rail
talking about "what everyone would like in the game", I still have the problem that sometimes I can't see on screen the squad ping even if I can hear it, is it only me or anyone alse have this problem?
I think you have experienced that realm I never been there Preston
As on the barrel there’s 3 holes, one for the sabot round and 2 for the spend rail.
805 Bren would be sick to have in the game
Yeah a little bit
And this
I actually don’t know what kind of cool Czech guns their are lemme go look some up
Desert eagle?
and which are disappearing?
every specialist will stay
HK 😵💫
Double mag

I can't control it's recoil but it's fun to use in siege
That’s in BF4 as well
You know what would be cool as a attachment
Two mags taped together
For a faster reload
Camera, every trigger squeeze takes a picture 
I played battlefield iiii but not that much I never seen anyone using that gun but I know the gun which killed me most of the time aek
what the hell is battlefield iiii ???
Why did you say bf4 like that


Bf4, where almost every ar was the same unless it was the aek in which case it’s just the sweat gun
and iiii stands for?
wait, don't tell me is BF4
I hate the fact that people gate keep vehicles
Wym
I never get to try them unless I go into an AI Loby
Just gotta be fast
everyone's taken all the vehicles before I even load into the game. I'm not even joking
Next time I queue into a match I'll clip it
What are you on?
@mossy badge if you mean Battlefield 4 it should be Battlefield IV not batltefield iiii
You’re giving him what he wants
He likes to engage in tomfoolery
AND YOURE EATING RIGHT INTO IT
a little bit of culture?
or just 4
Pineapple on pizza is the best thing ever

Nah they just camp that shit
Shoot down a nightbird and they’ll sit at the spawn screen waiting for it to become available again.
Vehicle mains are scum.
BATTLEFIELD
😍
IIII
ok, I think you have to study how roman numbers works
This looks just like bf IIII
Fr
Skill issue tbh

Weirdly I don’t think I’ve seen a tank main. Ram mains, yeah, but not outright tanks.
Didn’t intend to ping you
Hey ram main here
Also get fucked
You’re a Nancy
It has an aps that lasts like five hours for gods sake
and APS will be extended to tanks as well in few days
The aps isn’t that bad
Classes
I want regular role
https://imgur.com/a/oyNhGtb wasnt this suppose to drop 31.1.
A lot of people are betting on the 31(Tuesday)
yeah but i already have it
The TOR already comes with active protection buddy
It’s the other tanks that don’t have it
Ironically the TOR doesn’t even need it that much
Since most of the time you’re sniping out of place vehicles in your uncap
There's a gun cosmetic they still haven't released yet and which was in season 3 trailer
Idk why
season 3 still has 4,5 weeks to go
I mean I’d dieagree because nothing is stopping a chopper from demoing the TORA Camping
Facts.
I’m still waiting for that bf4 Irish skin to drop
Yeah me too it would be cool to have more cosmetics related to BF4 I think
And they still didn't give us this cosmetic for M5A3
I want to see that new cosmetic for the SU
I can't play jets on consoles 
Yes you can I believe in you
My PS5 controller doesn't think the same as you 
It's too hard to aim at people in jets on consoles
sooo only Assaults get med pens now?
Yes
and only 1 use
I think you can revive people with medpen too
I don’t think the class system needed to be added tbh.
wow that’s actually garbage
yep
Tbf 3 medpens + Mackay would be nightmare + armor
Assault is gonna be a very strong class even with just 1 medpen
It’s battlefield bro there’s no way people actually care about someone sweating that hard
There is absolutely way, there's sweats in 2042 just like any other BF
Anyhow it won't be that bad, you could always more from ammo crates
it’s just my opinion but I don’t care much for balance in hectic game like battlefield. (infantry-wise, vehicles are a different story)
how do you feel about infinite mortar
idk i’ve never come across it
You're lucky you haven't experienced that or UCAV spam
was it from a vehicle
Infantry
as for UCAV, you know those kamikaze planes?
imagine that with soldier
was it on 2042? cuz i’ve never seen that
They could wipe entire squads nothing to counter them
Which I'd argue adds more than a regular mortar and is even more powerful.
UCAV was last in BF4
Yeah but then people can’t sit in their uncap and be useless
well
“Who cares about balance”
Me. I care about balance.
Gta got boring so fast
the problems with them were they can be replenishable
Most people do, dice even uses the term "meta" now, they're learning
What if they gave those gadgets cooldowns instead of Ammo from support ?
Meta shitters go home.
people would still camp
So you agree with the drum mag potential nerf?
like a 1min cooldown mortar with 4 rounds
Play what’s fun, not what’s statistically the best.
nope
shotguns and marksmans are not mentioned to have synergy
will they become useless lol
That nerf is useless unless they nerf the 200 round LMGs which act like ARs
Drum mags weren't a problem
They’re not going through with that drum mag nerf in its current state
I’m sure if it
They shouldn’t even be a thing
LMG'S are hard to balance.
Nah it should, the drum mags a straight upgrade on all guns cept the AK
you mean getting literally 2 tapped
Every gun is meta in this game ive never had a bad wepon even shot guns and the crossbow
Don't make them have fast ADS time, that would be a nice start
Just needs the same balance the AK’s drum has
AK’s drum only has a single spare
So you give up a good chunk of sustain
broo ong. But you gotta admire the Scar is by far the best AR, I don’t think it’s overpowered tho
The mcs is fucking useless
The SCAR is extremely good but it's nowhere near as dominant as it were before.
Guns like PP29 are just gonna become more dominant with the drug mag change
It got nerfed?
yeah.
You get it back by resupplying your ammo
Its 74M 4HK range was reduced to 49M.
maybe it should have grip options
hate tto break it to you but pp been dom since launch
I know, I'm just saying it's gonna be even worse
I don't see how grips will help it considering its decent base stats.
Idk how dice is leaving the LCMG and Avancys untouched
The mcs is stonks I love that shotty
TIME FOR PLASMA RIFLE.
it will be better than decent
simple
Yeah the nade launchers are busted, I've stopped using them cause they're so cheap.
Sad that gun isn't even in halo anymore
That thing won’t even put someone at half health within ten metres
Way when are we getting the halo cross over so we can get needlers 
The SCAR feels like it's using a stubby grip all the time.
Usually I’d argue they buff a different weapon but nah those 2 tapping LMGs not fun
Lol I'm being random while playing Terraria.
It’s the worst shotgun I’ve ever used outside of the Dao
And then I remembered I'm meant to be playing dead space.
You’re so quirky 🤪
remake?
They're beyond annoying I wish they'd perform more like BFV LMGs and not 200 round ARs
M249 go brrrr
Like the engineer perk gives us improved accuracy while prone with LMGs it doesn't even matter since they're already so accurate
At least I can still run around being a sniper medic I guess 😒
🤮
Idk, I can't pass up on the immediate and steady scope for recon that shits huge
I mean the majority did want classes back it’s a pretty welcomed change
And it isn't just an overall cover on drums it's just a general consensus on extended mags.
Didn’t Alex say he wasn’t to sure about that drum mag nerf?
True
Retracted and shifted onto LMGs
what about the drum mags nerf?
ARs aren't the problem
do tell
He’ll figure out something with the help with feedback
Drum mags will have a massive ADS speed increase now to keep them in check.
However it looks like it's been taken too far.
Rushed and unfinished.
mw2 moment
Is it a buff while the regular ads is nerfed. Or a buff and the regular ads stays what it was before?
LMGs don’t need a mag nerf they’re not as bad as you’re making them out it be
they need a damage nerf
Wouldn't know until I get my hands on it, have to wait for Tuesday
No they don’t 💀
I think increasing sprint to fire speed would be better
a lil bit more ads speed
and strafe speed perhab
LMGs are literally outperforming in close range gunfights since their ads speed is quick as an AR
I was full health and got bop booped before i knew it
I hope they didn’t nerf the regular ads. I hate the class system already
A LMG
Don't think they did outside of drug mags
i could use one of those 😉
Who?
Who wanted this?
A lot of people
LARGE MACHINE GUN that is their purpose to lay down fire suppress your ass from moving
this
The people who complained about classes don't even play the game anymore
A large quantity of the community
It's old complaints. No longer relevant.
this too
As long as they keep the base movement and sprint speeds the same regardless of weapon type, any change is fine.
also this
The majority of people as he said it
It's a done deal now, classes are staying
There's a difference between "majority" and "vocal majority". In this case I'm not sure which one it is.
It's the latter
This game needs classes.
But even then, I haven't heard anyone complain about classes since I joined this discord back in August.
Or I will word it better.
I was going based off feedback and complaints off Twitter instagram and Reddit
I see people who keep complaining about the fact there are no classes in this game and now they bring them back to us some of you guys here act like nobody asked for classes
This game needed better balanced classes.
Stop that nonesense
Can't tell. Its just a conclusion you can come to based on feeling, not actual numbers.
I can’t even call this a hot take anymore but Specialists > Class System. If you wanted to play classes go play the older BFs or wait for the new one
BF fans dropped this game for many reasons including the lack of classes
Show me the statistics
“people” as in a handful in someone’s twitter comments
That's the issue. Those platforms are a vocal minority and doesn't necessarily represent all those who just sit silently and play.
You know dice sent out surveys too, classes returning was a big request
Dice heard the vocal majority because people who expressed themselves were the ones who wanted classes back, so that's fair anyway
This is also a very good point of view
They even admitted that balancing without classes was an absolute pain, and the class system allows for them to reconsider how things are balanced for the better
Nope spending sometimes in here and a lot of people wanted classes back, maybe not majority but still a lot
Exactly. People needed to realize that this game was a departure from the previously established norms. Instead, they expected DICE to shoe horn old systems into a game that were never intended to be there, e.g., a class system.
This, specialist design is inherently unbalanced, a few of them would always be much better than others
New players left due to lake of content
Good players left because of the technical issues
Old players left after all the changes to base game loop
Is 2042's servers down? Or is there a maintenance tonight that I don't know of.
So i’m being punished because the people who didn’t have a problem with the system didn’t see a reason to reach out and defend it?
They should express their opinions too because Dice isn't gonna guess what they want
"this game isn't EXACTLY like every other previous battlefield game? Then this game sucks!!!!
"
-maladaptive BF players
After this coming update I can see quite a few people coming back to check out the class rework
That's not how public opinion work. People are way more likely to complain and get verbal if they don't like something compared to if they think everything is fine.
Player numbers also don't lie, look at BFV players compared to this
I can get behind the new players leaving since there was a lack of content. But what there doing now is essentially Making a Mordern Warfare game into Black Ops if you get what I mean
How so?
and leaving shortly after
You mean if they like something they're not gonna say it but if they dislike something they're gonna get verbal ?
if everyone thinks this way maybe it does suck
Can you guarantee that?
I just mean by changing one game into another probably a bad example
Numbers don't lie, but their interpretation do. BFV has been crazy cheap, runs on lower specs and attracts a lot of WW2 interested people. Doesn't say anything about the class system necessarily.
plus the bfv peaks are bc of asia
Not true. It's more indicative of a group of people being close minded and maladaptive.
Why Asia? Did it boom there recently?
its always been that way in 2042 life
Interesting didn't know that
Can you guarantee any “returning” player staying long? I highly doubt a class system and map reworks would be enough to keep them playing as they’ll probably go back to whatever game they were playing before
Well the ones who wanted the rework most likely
Who can say? Personally, I think it's too little too late. But again, who can say? Only time will tell at this point.
I for one can’t wait for it
Constant new content would be the true way to guaranteeing player retention
So many franchises are struggling with this tho, even mw2 is lacking maps
And now they’ll come back to a janky class system yay
The only thing I'm pleased about is launchers moving to engineer class. So hopefully less M5 spam now....
That’s what others thought before as well “it’s a little to late for 2042” and then boom content drops
call of duty being carried by warzone.
That's a personal pov but I think this game's launch was so bad that it will prevent it from regaining a normal playercount, I mean it launched so badly and deteriorated the image of the game and franchise so bad that this game will never really regain a lot of players
battlefield needs something to carry it
these are people who uninstalled within weeks of the game launching tho
Oh so I presume it’s you’ve played the class system update?
and if they play their cards right. ii think portal is the future of battlefield
Sadly, it probably depends a lot on youtubers, Twitch streamers and the media. If a narrative begins rolling about it being great and everybody should play it emerges and it becomes "trendy" it could happen. Sadly, how popular games get doesn't rely solely on how good they are or not.
We should just wait for Tuesday and see how community feedback is
What they are doing now is more a mixture of trying to emulate more popular games and not knowing when to introduce friction to the player.
If it's dogshit people will complain
They’re going a bit too far to please people that dropped the game immediately
They acknowledge it.
They're probably doing it also to get feedback for the next battlefield title, which definitely will scrap specialists
Do they?
The idea of it was unnecessary. Now folks gonna use the line “uughhh all these battlefields feel the same”
This game’s mechanics differ from practically every other battlefield
You know that's a good point. I hope it doesn't end up this way. I like this BF specifically because it's not like all the other ones.
Too much so, it's just a weird combination of ideas from other franchises
Although now dice is getting it back on track
I don’t necessarily see it as simply adding it for the fan service, I see it as fixing problems that were introduced due to the specialist system itself. But that’s just me
Like NBA 2K and Madden? If so then this’ll probably be my last battlefield (kinda crazy that it’s my favorite too)
what
This your favorite? Damn alright
Yeah same. It's my favorite
I've had thousands of hours of fun in previous titles, but nothing compares to the absolute peak comedy moments that I've had in this game.
I didn’t find being sniped by tanks to be fun at all
It's like no other.
BF1 was fun too
I still play a ton of BF1, solid game
I mean it just seems like you’re trying to make excuses at this point on why you personally think the new class system will be bad
It can be both. But it absolutely is trying to save face and soft relaunch the title.
I do too cause it’s my favorite
Not will be. Why it’s just bad in general.
3.2 does feel like a relaunch of some sorts
can you get DX11?
I’m your opinion you think it’s bad in other opinion it’s good it’s all about perspective
I hope we get content beyond season 5, but I seriously doubt it
Willing to sell my left nut for all chat feature 🙂
Personally it’s a welcome change that’s been waited for, you automatically think that everyone who wanted classes just suddenly quit which isn’t nearly close to the truth
anyone?
It’s not necessary a bad thing to say that either. Just because they’re trying to get old fans back by returning the game to a more BF style formula, doesn’t mean it’s bad or wrong in any way.
But they absolutely did this more as an apology than something they wanted to do. Clearly. Cause they kept the specialist style around for so long and even launched with it.
Yeah I unironically want 2 more specialists,
to max out at 4 for each class, for OCD reasons.
I just want more guns + maps
Same actually
Also really want to see the hourglass rework if it ever happens
Emphasis on more guns
And throwing knife skins 
They can cater to bringing back old players but this wasn’t necessary. Like not every bf has to be a carbon copy
I want A LOT more guns
Fr fr no 🧢
They’ve already stated they don’t plan on stopping for 2042 and I give it probation another for more seasons then a reveal of the next bf game
If they don't bring mastery esque skins for portal guns they should at least do universal skins. :|
Well, every battlefield is different. But they clearly went too far.
hello?? nobody knows if DX11 can be turn on?
For REAL
Absolutely
I get bored of the guns quickly. Hope they add something unique. Something like a FAMAS or Bulldog that BF4 had.
You can't switch to DX11 on 2042.
I want the burst famas.
It's not like you need to use DX11 on it anyways considering how DX12 interacts with 2042.
A famas would be sweet
or at least give us attachments to grind for on the vaulted weapons
Nah it's a DX12 title
And I want the AN gosh darn it
thats what it says
It doesn’t actually do anything
Same. Would be dope
I don’t see a reason why they can’t add more specialists and have the class system.
I feel this
A cavalry option is also in the config, that doesn’t do anything
guys do you know where I can find a map of the breakaway rework?
No idea why you'd want to disable DX12.
It was the first mined vault weapon. And yet it’s still not here. Yet the MTAR is coming INTO the game and immediately going into vault.
Won't change much even if you do that, I tried it myself
Which variant?
There’s also a little something Called ‘helicopterflightassist’ which does nothing 
Bt or CQ?
damn ok
Eh they drop the specialist and probably add different content how many more maps do we need reworked 1 or 2?
2 maps left. Hourglass, Discarded
True. I am somewhat excited for MTAR. But I have a feeling it's gonna suck like the other vault weapons.
Low mag size
Long reload time
Being the main two aspects I'm worried about.
Remake Exposure while you’re at it DICE.
Yeah so next season we’ll get two reworked maps then boom no more reworked maps and more content drop for S5
Plus a new map of course
Do you? Is the best part of the map still all one sector?
conquest please 🙂
why is 45% of the map have nothing
tysm (rip E1 😦 )
Flanking space I guess
I mean hale could be cool as a Engineer specialist that acts as a hard counter to Irish, all they need to do Is add an EOD bot with C5 🙂
Note pads
2042 in nutshell
Where’s the crashed condor
wait a sec it's conquest 64, do you know what conquest 128 will looks like?
That’s gotta be the 64 layout right?
I think it is
It doesn’t have the crashed condor or anything
it is cuz the downed osprey isn't there
Nor the village the penguins built
it has been built by the penguins???
Tbh they could’ve move the flags and not be so close together in this layout
That’s what they said in the patch notes. Lol
Why is the ice glacier not available?
weird
you know what even C1 is in a weird place
the flow of the map prolly gonna be awkward
its designed for camper snipers ontop of the ice hills 😎
Pretty sure it’s supposed to be a joke
Seriously, the entire glacier area is unplayable?
I’m 64 layout
Better be
It is
So is 64p dead?
Because they showed the crashed condor in this icy cliffed area
124 sorry
No
No 128 conquest is still standard
It’s ok words are hard for me as well
Despite their best efforts. No. 128cq is still around. Thankfully
Been ages since I’ve seen that snow map from launch
Feels like theres a looot of space for a C2
It's so much better now
I just wish they added some Blizzard or snow storm effect
Would help with the map atmosphere
Now that would be cool
A snow storm would be crazy
That’s where thermals would excel in
Something like fjells snowstorm, man it would be sick
that just reminds me of using thermals in hourglass
god i wish to see it reworked already
Yeah, that map is staying a instant quit for me
Once you cap and objective you gotta run 5 miles to next one
It's so bad
yeah i only do BT on hourglass for that reason
So much useless space now that I'm just looking at it
the city part of hourglass is so much wasted space. if they got rid of it and put destructible buildings or 2/3 story buildings it would be better
I hope hourglass gets breakaway level shit, move stadium move the city add more buildings
If it's just a few sandbags it's gonna stay shit
The city bit gives it some identity. Especially when it gets darker. I don’t agree with that.
its so boring tho
No I mean
The problem with the city section is that it’s all 1 sector. Same problem the arena has.
If the city were part of the B and A sector it would be a nice touch
Sorry I was responding to gooey
We need actual city makes
Is there a reason they haven’t
Maybe it’s easier lol
Definitely
A urban area for war would be pretty nice
Yes moving the arena closer. Moving the village to that huge expanse of desert between D and the city would just make that map 10x better
Don’t remind me of flood zone
Maybe season 5 map?
Sure. The flooding was cool but the map was shit.
Supposed to be in a BF4 environment
Empty and doesn’t feel like it would even work for a thriving real city
you're the person to hate levolution
Fuck flood zone I hate that map
Levolution is overrated
Just sniper camping and swimming that's it
Dynamic destruction is better than levolution in every single way
why not both
Because clearly they can’t do both.
Bc we aren’t getting that
BFV had the best destruction
So I would rather city maps lol
BF1*
Idk, BFV you could absolutely destroy towns
BFV isn't dead?
I mean I have no issue finding matches on Xbox ever ;-;
it is when you dont have variety of game modes and maps
It's more alive than 2042, atleast on PC
?? Like me and my dad play it all the time
Last time I did grand Op, it was sure as shit boring
Boring don't mean dead
You could do that in 1 as well. And you could destroy big trees which you can’t do in BFV. And also you can create massive ground craters. Which you also cannot do in V for some reason.
Grand ops is also just a bad mode, Operations from BF1 is way better
its just early BT mode
and I dont like it either
It’s the better Breakthrough
2042 I feel they were lazy and did the most flattest environmental maps to avoid putting actual fleshed out city’s and world building I really do hope the next focus is purely urban warfare
Sort of, but it felt like a real war when you play Operations
3 waves. 2-3 maps. Felt epic
why not have an Op that has different scenarios
They did that with grand ops. And that mode died quick
Grand ops was shite
like have a sector that have the attacking team have destory this mcom, then cap this flag
why not do that
I want variety
They had a mode like that in the last 2042 event. It was not good
Though frontlines was similar in that regard.
you mean in december? I sure as shit did not see any variety
its just flag cap
fthe main issue was infinite tickets
meaning game can be endless
The second week had a chain link style mode with Mcoms to destroy if you successfully pushed them back far enough.
Some people would argue that was the best part about it
well I dont
They did eventually add a timer to it anyway
both sides have tickets
but each advance and fallback can increase or decrease ticket count
This is all beside the point
Me
Want
City
thats how I imagine it wold work
I saw a lot of praise for 3 hour long frontlines games back then.
Some people loved it.
also
I did!
But apparently it was bad on their servers. Lol
if you force your server to have 300+ tickets for rush
Felt like a whole ass journey
you are a waste of space
That’s why rush chaos is the best version of rush
I think they should have 64 and 128 player versions of all game games
not too long
Personally
A modern BF games with frontlines would be perfect, first day is halo drop, second day is naval assault, and third day is whatever the fuck you want as the whole map has been completely destroyed in the first two days
You know. Airborne mode in BFV was kinda awesome.
Third day is feet first into hell, send in the ODSTS
Shame it was tied to grand ops
Incredible, I miss it so hard tbh
Imagine if pacific maps got airborne mode support
Wouldn’t make too much sense historically. But damn would it look cool
Could be sone kind of conquest but modified
Rip halo
you know that pacific theatre battle where its between Japanese boats and american airlines?
imagine that in V
I liked Grand Operations
Yep
I played it a few times. But I only really liked the airborne stuff. It felt weird jumping from one mode type to another.
They should add pride skins for the nighthawk
If grand ops was airborne across 2 maps I would’ve loved it
