battlefield-2042

[next gulch]

Blue and it'll come with a blue tint you can't turn off

[sturdy socket]

ump9 in bf4

speaking of which it needs a return

[next gulch]

people used that? I don't recall that ever happening

[sturdy socket]

it's pretty good

if you're not a loser that abuses teleport glitching and can actually aim for the head

[arctic grove]

Ya talking about mouzou?

[rocky kraken]

isst season 3 blue

tho

[arctic grove]

Jokes aside on the color

idek what it’ll be

[next gulch]

A gun I saw maybe a handful of times in BF4, but I want in 2042 is the G36

[rocky kraken]

should be a portal gun tho

[next gulch]

one of the best looking guns ever

yeah it would be

[rocky kraken]

unless they make futuristic one

iwith ya know

the powered rails

[next gulch]

G37-C

[midnight mesa]

my man

fix them damn 2042 animations!

[arctic grove]

I be damned

[arctic grove]

Join the Animations cult brudda

[hybrid totem]

I think the 50mm cannon on the hind/condor might be worth a damn again

[jovial jay]

exposure is my best map

finally got the right verticality

any other map they all have flat field and perpendicular verticality, they are all sniper haven

spearhead is also good since there are a decent amount of cover

[white geyser]

I just start using the M60E4 I unlock and oh man, I did enjoy it

[jovial jay]

how is it

I haven't unlocked it yet

been enjoying the xm8 too much

[white geyser]

The M60E4 was pretty good feels like you back playing BF3

[rocky kraken]

well

if only

the running with teh portal lmgs wasnt ass

[solar obsidian]

@rocky krakenhis monitors was not shit enough,

who wants to take a deeper look into the response times of your monitor

[acoustic seal]

the response times on my monitor are not why this game feels bad in every way

[solar obsidian]

no, but we cant fix a skill issue

[arctic grove]

skEEl tishOO

[solar obsidian]

my old tn monitor, my second monitor,

was pure shit

and it gotten great reviews all over the place

used by fucking esport teams

i cant understate how disappointed i was using that for 60fps games

[arctic grove]

[solar obsidian]

benq XL2420g

[wooden briar]

Aek here is like wtf

[midnight mesa]

preach brother

fix that dumbass shit 🙏

[errant scarab]

can you believe that BF2042 has a $2b budget....

[arctic grove]

no cuz its not true

[errant scarab]

Look like 1m game

Waste of money

with that I can remaster all Battlefield games without problems

[arctic grove]

2b budget what the fuck are you talking about

[next onyx]

Hey the complainer is back.

[errant scarab]

Hello

Yes, Battlefield 2042 cost $2b to make

you did not know?

It's 10 times the budget Battlefield 4 had.

[arctic grove]

What game would require 2 billion dollars ever

[errant scarab]

developers.... Marketing

almost all the content creators were bought by ea to talk about the game

[arctic grove]

im absolutely flabbergasted by your bullshit

[next onyx]

Honestly they just talk shit all the time Nikel just don't give them attention.

[arctic grove]

fair enough

[errant scarab]

Dude this was already known since it came out, didn't you know this?

[edgy oriole]

[errant scarab]

you can investigate on your own

[arctic grove]

based on my investigations this games budget is around $150m

[rocky kraken]

hello gentlemen

[arctic grove]

h

[rocky kraken]

i would like to make a claim

[arctic grove]

this locking could use some improvements

[rocky kraken]

remove lis from 2042

and all will be great

tf

[errant scarab]

I want bfv animations for bf2042

[rocky kraken]

not happening

[hexed mango]

insomnia is a bitch

[arctic grove]

Replace lis with zain and we good

[rocky kraken]

2042 gives me insomnia

[hexed mango]

replace all specialists with zain

[errant scarab]

Liss is annoying?

[rocky kraken]

lis is broken

[worthy inlet]

Just don't play 2042

[rocky kraken]

and shouldnt be in the game

[arctic grove]

no I hate zain

[errant scarab]

Lol

[rocky kraken]

and people who defend lis

are just oblivious

and zain

but he can get nerfed

[edgy oriole]

falck only playlist

[rocky kraken]

lis cant get nerfed enough

still the fact that its a guided missile

[errant scarab]

sorry friend, they won't remove liss

[rocky kraken]

if they wont

i will

lis purge

[errant scarab]

How???

[arctic grove]

mommy only playlist

[rocky kraken]

i will tbag

every single

lis

[errant scarab]

Portal and disable liss

[rocky kraken]

i will make them quit the specialist

i will ram them with the eod

[arctic grove]

btw

[rocky kraken]

and make them think about their decissions

[arctic grove]

u still having issues with textures that wont load?

[rocky kraken]

i like how the javelin has all those things around the sight and none of them are usefull

i actually think the javelins texture is just bad

[arctic grove]

how are you gonna know its day and not night

[arctic grove]

its usually in first match only for some reason, loads all textures next match

ah

[rocky kraken]

so im thinking

they add jetpacks

[arctic grove]

well I asked bout lod issues on answers hq and the community manager said the line

passed this over to the dev team

[arctic grove]

okay you can stop thinking

[errant scarab]

Why does the weapon sometimes seem to float in the air when I run and the animations look out of sync?

This has been since the game came out and there is no news

[rocky kraken]

Yeah

That’s why my name is my name

They like to not fix animations

[hexed mango]

falck is so fun now. the super fast revive is clutch

[edgy oriole]

double heal to the moon

[rocky kraken]

Bikini falck skin

If ea wants money

[arctic grove]

PLEASE

[rocky kraken]

I give

She’s only 58…..

[errant scarab]

Grandma?

[arctic grove]

hummina hummina

[arctic grove]

that body tho

sundance is smoking in the corner

[rocky kraken]

Sundance

[errant scarab]

How she can run slide

[rocky kraken]

Hope next battlefield removes sliding

Cod shit

[arctic grove]

i think its a good mechanic

[errant scarab]

Slide is good of me

[arctic grove]

even insurgency has this

sliding isnt even that powerful

[errant scarab]

but those movements so fast and exaggerated without feeling make me angry

[arctic grove]

it seems that this game makes you angry overall

you should stop playing perhaps

[next onyx]

Stop playing the game if it makes you angry.

[errant scarab]

Yes

[next onyx]

And play something else instead of crying on here.

Yo Nikel you been giving the AK a go?

[arctic grove]

if the sliding were realistic people could slide down the hills

its good how it is

[next onyx]

The fact you can slide down hills I love.

[arctic grove]

maybe like 2 or 3 matches a couple days ago

then switched back to m5

[next onyx]

AK feels nice.

But the m5 just works.

[edgy oriole]

[next onyx]

I do wish the silde speed threshold was a little lower.

[edgy oriole]

you stick to your scar old man

[next onyx]

So you could slide down the hill with out awkwardly stopping.

SCAR good but so is the AK.

[errant scarab]

please make a mix bf4 and bfv in the gameplay. It is not necessary to copy cod, battlefield has better mechanics they just have to be perfected

[arctic grove]

I'll do some ak gaming once I get on

which is

right now

love the process of launching this game

ea launcher opens like 3 times and closes itself

[solar obsidian]

we have bad company

and this is bitching company

welcome to #battlefield-2042

[arctic grove]

connecting to online services

[errant scarab]

I swore that a specialist was going to be a robot

[arctic grove]

o

persistance data error

anyone else?

o wait

I forgot to stop the download lol

[slender isle]

So somehow in the past week breakthrough has gone from my least fav mode to most fav

I think it's thanks to the defibs

[rocky kraken]

Just

I wouldn’t mind the next bf taking 4 years

Just make a good game

[solar obsidian]

you think this is why,

but we actually had more that could revive before,
there are only that many revives because the weekly mission depend on it

[errant scarab]

2024

[solar obsidian]

make a fully path traced battlefield

[slender isle]

Well i'm the one reviving

so...

[solar obsidian]

same was i for one match,

[slender isle]

I can preemptively charge the defibs on the slide towards a body

meaning faster and safer revives

[slender isle]

I've been doing it all day. on average I'm dropping 50 revives a match

[split parcel]

Am I blind? Where do I find the VOIP settings?

[next onyx]

BT is just stacked today.

In audio.

[slender isle]

There are so many cracked people today

[split parcel]

Ah, found it. Didn't think to check for other categories in top mid

[solar obsidian]

https://tenor.com/view/battlefield-gif-21904440

[arctic grove]

how much unique perfiormance awards have they removed

all I see is kills and obj captured

[solar obsidian]

you had like 15 vehicles kill and assist in a match

"4 sidearm kills"

[slender isle]

I believe there are still revives and vehicle kills

Vehicle detroys*

[solar obsidian]

properly,

i seen revive

but i always get point captured, because of conquest

[slender isle]

Oh and there's the most assists

[solar obsidian]

ahh ya

[slender isle]

I think that's it though right? Don't think there's others

Wish they'd do "most resupply/health given" stuff

[low timber]

Remember when there were the “throwable thrown” one?

[solar obsidian]

spotter nade

the stuff that went though testing

[low timber]

Or “damage dealt” and people sometimes got 0 on it

[solar obsidian]

achievement unlocked 1000G

[next onyx]

I fucked a hind with a javelin marse are you proud of me.

Actually no ill reword that.

I fucked up a hind with a javelin.

[low timber]

Congratulations on your child

[solar obsidian]

can you describe that in detail,

[next onyx]

Tracer dart.

Plus javelin lock on.

Didn't flare.

Got annihilated.

[solar obsidian]

so you first penetrated it lightly

before going full in

alright

[low timber]

How much damage did it deal?

[solar obsidian]

the dart or the javelin

[low timber]

The load

[slender isle]

Javelin 2 hits transports right?

[solar obsidian]

emp nade does like 1 damage on direct hit

lis rocket

[slender isle]

Same with motion sensor and falk gun

[solar obsidian]

yeees

[solar obsidian]

i meant, emp nade does one damage to vehicle on direct hit

[low timber]

Because normal hit to MAV is 31 damage and laser designated hit is 33 damage.

With Javelin

[slender isle]

ohhhhhhh

[solar obsidian]

yeah

question is

can we stick c5 to a javelin rocket?

[slender isle]

Question is

[low timber]

Or can it be shot out of the air like the G-84?

[slender isle]

does C5 actually kill a mav or just blow the other pieces of C5 up]

[solar obsidian]

want to here some toxic gameplay i found out

seen a lot complain here about tanks leaving them while getting repaired

my answer was just jump on top of them

i did that for a whole match

you can prone into the turret and watch through the turret armor, not getting hit and just play repairbot

now as a lis main, you have infinite rocket this way

peak when you need to assist tank killing

[edgy oriole]

jump ontop is asking to be shot in the head

practically begging

[midnight mesa]

need that immersive battlefield movement back

[solar obsidian]

the thing is, your head is inside the tank top,

[neon prairie]

How are you supposed to play this well on controller? Downloaded this from game pass on series X, having a hard time aiming and shit.

[slender isle]

Just hug their tracks

best way to not die and blow them up

I like to kamikaze as Liz with mines

[solar obsidian]

practice, and forget all about what you learned in cod

[solar obsidian]

throwing mines

[slender isle]

You know it. Tanks can't do shit against them

You die after you've thrown them? doesnt matter

[solar obsidian]

is this when im going to say i have emp nades

[slender isle]

Emp or no emp. Jump on em and throw them mines

[solar obsidian]

[slender isle]

Most effective AT out there

[solar obsidian]

damn

[jovial jay]

I just got ganged up by 3 EOD bot

wtf

BF3 memories

[solar obsidian]

those eod bots are more terrifying than the ranger

[arctic grove]

be better

[jovial jay]

yeae

[jovial jay]

somehow they can take multiple 30mm rounds into their face and still drive around

it's kinda funny tho

[solar obsidian]

im still 100% sure eod bot in bf3 had a larger size and much less life

@jovial jayhttps://youtu.be/HBBwXAPNLr0

[neon prairie]

God it's just so hard to shoot with this thing! Like I'm aiming right next to their heads every time

[uneven lodge]

i found a great way to stay hydrated

take a sip whenever i die

ive drank 3 liters in 2 hours

[white geyser]

Wonder if they add another specialist that wields a grenade launcher? however the ammo of the grenade launcher is not only standard but it can also stick to anything

[slender isle]

idk if that would work for me

i'm too good 😉

[chilly jacinth]

bad players would die from drinking too much water

[arctic grove]

Btw

Why does m16a3 mastery icon have an m16a2 on it

No m16a2 in aow?

[vagrant stirrup]

They said season 4 will add the last specialist, and she is a Recon class

There's a leak of her info on twitter already

[slender isle]

camilla blasco baby. Captain of the Exodus

[snow badge]

lets make the impossible, possible

[slender isle]

average sundance main. Pretty sure it's sundance at least

[vagrant stirrup]

Said by Paik i guess?

[slender isle]

Y’all ever been revived by falk and hoped to not die, just to get instantly shot again?

[fervent rose]

yes we have played battlefield

thats every game

[lusty musk]

hey just a question for you guys: Does anyone know why a round would close out and then display the message "The Game has ended, every player has been disconnected" while there is still one set of points left to take in a Breakthrough game?

[edgy oriole]

broken server

[dapper night]

Tell to that the 2042 players at EA forum that hated the Class System

They wanted to make BF a CoD Groundwar 2.0

Ender may be an asshole but he has a point why Classes are needed in BF
https://youtube.com/watch?v=z7zd9lsmWp8&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE

TL:DR it adds game balance and game readability in the game, it lets you recognize who has a certain gadget

[jovial jay]

I think I just sniped a condor pilot, first time for me since I always assume the glass is bulletproof

[wide shore]

I didn’t mind not having the class system. But I wasn’t against them changing it back. And certainly wouldn’t have liked a new game with the same system as 2042.

[fervent rose]

class system is good. i would even appreciate some slight weapon restrictions like no sniper on medic/assault, each kit could lose 1-2 categories and it would be fine

[wide shore]

It’s too late in the lifecycle to limit primaries. Especially when theres such little selection.

The vault weapons aren’t great variety either. Most of them are shit

[fervent rose]

you're telling me if assault had SMG / DMR / AR / Tactical they wouldnt have enough good options?

i dont agree with that, on launch of course, but not anymore

[wide shore]

I guess it would be fine. But my main point is this game was over a year old. Weapons have never been locked. Locking them now would just be silly.

[fervent rose]

The way the game released was silly

better late than never to fix it

[wide shore]

Just wait for the next game. Have tons of guns. And lock them as needed.

That said. I wouldn’t mind if they kept open primaries forever.

[fervent rose]

it would cut down on some bullshit to remove lmg from sundance for example

[wide shore]

I don’t see why it really matters.

[fervent rose]

Balance doesn't matter?

[wide shore]

What’s stopping everyone from running engineer? If the whole team wants to use LMGs they could even with class restriction

[fervent rose]

Nothing, but you can completely bypass map design and flow with sundance, you cant do that as engineer

LMG + insane mobility has never been in bf before, its imbalanced

[wide shore]

She can flank faster but that doesn’t mean you cannot flank as Boris.

[fervent rose]

flying in behind people with a 200 round lmg is not a balanced concept

[wide shore]

That’s because there’s never been a wing suit in battlefield

I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. Just shoot them mid flight. Or shoot them on the ground.

If you get flanked and your team gets rinsed that’s kinda their own fault.

Most of the guns in this game have huge mag options.

Even if Sundance was limited to SMGs they’d still have access to stuff like the P90 or MP9 with drum mag/K30 drum mag which is capable of doing the same amount of damage.

[fervent rose]

the only smg thats comparable to an lmg is the pp29

and it doesnt 2x headshot, LMGs are way better for flanking on sundance

[wide shore]

How often is any player able to unload 200 rounds without penalty?

Especially on a flank where you’re right near the enemy

I don’t think it has as much of an effect as you say.

[fervent rose]

i never said it was game breaking

its just imbalanced

do they want a balanced game or not

[wide shore]

I think the gameplay feels pretty balanced right now. Honestly.

Most balanced it’s ever felt

[plain hare]

Agreed

[fervent rose]

and the improvements are far from being complete

They can keep up the good work

[wide shore]

This is the first time you can breathe in this game without some ridiculously overpowered vehicle stomping you into the dirt.

[plain hare]

I think a huge problem was how strong helis were before Lis buff

[wide shore]

The problem was the clearly untested 50mm cannons on flying tanks. Thankfully that’s been patched for some time.

[fervent rose]

speaking of helis the "transport" helis are just gunships that are obnoxious on breakthrough

the maps that have 2 of them? jesus

[plain hare]

I wish they'd remove rocket pods from the Little Bird still, dumb that they're still there

Yeah the flying tank meta was so annoying

[fervent rose]

i honestly think its about the same if not easier when im in a tank

[wide shore]

Transport choppers shouldn’t even have a main weapon. Just 2 mini guns to defend itself.

[fervent rose]

but maybe people will figure out the new meta

[fervent rose]

they could turn that into a spotter seat if it must be manned. and another passenger seat would be cool

[plain hare]

Yeah but remember tanks weren't really the issue to begin with

[fervent rose]

well I'm an issue in a tank

[wide shore]

People piling into the “transport” choppers and not leaving cause it’s free kills/free points goes entirely against the point of a transport helicopter.

[fervent rose]

[plain hare]

That's prolly cause you're good at the game

If you're good and using a main battle tank you should be problematic

[fervent rose]

I guess, I think the whole Irish aps thing is really goofy

but without it you get lis missile chipped

[wide shore]

The APS on tanks is very necessary.

It’s all people ran in BF4 anyway

[plain hare]

When everyone in their mom could equip recoilless m5 being a tank player waa more like being a metal coffin

[plain hare]

Definitely I agree

[fervent rose]

yea im talking about Irish's infinite aps not the tank button

the tank APS was 100% needed

[wide shore]

Oh. Well. I think they’re looking into that

[plain hare]

Irish's aps is dumb

[wide shore]

That’s what I heard anyway

[fervent rose]

like, my irish is over 30kd since i started tanking on him exclusively

lol

and im nowhere near my "top end" on that

[royal swan]

I had the weirdest fucking dream/nightmare, nothing scary just being banned from a favorite or most played game for over 11 years

[wide shore]

It should be like the spawn beacon. It should block like, 30 explosives nor something then detonate. And you gotta place a new one.

[fervent rose]

it should just have a small cooldown, like 1-2 seconds

[plain hare]

My strat is to parachute down with c5, shoot the APS and then strap that tank with the sandwiches

[fervent rose]

so if you got multiple rockets at the same time you're not safe

it shouldnt be that easy

[dapper night]

Honestly the Class System without the weapon restrictions was a featured in Battlefield Mobile, I’ve played the alpha and what I can tell it worked great

[wide shore]

You do that though and it’s useless to a group of targeted fire (like breakthrough or rush xl) or flatout just not even useful against Zain

[plain hare]

Or strap ELBC ram with C5 and use APS, then suicide bomb tanks

[wide shore]

Zain would just kill Irish every time if it had a cool down

[fervent rose]

Well maybe they could make it so that airburst doesnt trigger the cooldown but a javelin/recoilless does

[dapper night]

Fr just copy the BF Mobile Class system then we’re good to go

[wide shore]

Perhaps.

[fervent rose]

it also shouldnt block smoke

you should be able to smoke an irish APS location

[plain hare]

I like the open weapons, just not the gadgets tbh, I like what they did with the classes

I rarely see a gadget go unused since the update tbh

[wide shore]

It’s a bit of a double edged sword.

On one hand, many times in the past I’ve chosen a class based entirely on which gun I want to use at that time. So you get a good mix of, “I don’t want to be a medic, but I wanna use an SMG, so let me be an engineer with an SMG” which makes the player happy.

On the other hand. There’s gonna be less medics.

But on the other, other hand. You may have more medics but how many of them actually wanna be medics? Will they even heal or revive?

[mossy badge]

Halo bro you enjoying hogwarts?

[wide shore]

Loving is the better word

[mossy badge]

Nice, I will try it when I will go back to my home 🏠

[fervent rose]

so avalanche finally produced a banger?

[plain hare]

Another thing I'm not a huge fan of is the merging of medic and support, I kinda miss playing that old support role of just throwing ammo down

But now people expect me to revive(Which is fair since that's how they designed support) but I don't really wanna play the role of two classes

[wide shore]

I’d say so. Had almost 500k concurrent on steam and that’s before the game was even officially out. That’s digital deluxe early access.

[idle lion]

doesnt push point, camps the rooftop of the point which cant cap the point from there on exposure
gets called out
Waah why are you toxic

[mossy badge]

That's just steam numbers, early access is for ps5 too right???

[wide shore]

And XBSX/s

[mossy badge]

😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫🔥🔥🔥

[mossy badge]

We can assume around 1 m???

[wide shore]

They also have a last Gen release in April.

Definitely

The game sold incredibly well and retention seems very good. Broke over a million viewers on twitch too

[mossy badge]

Insane numbers this game is pulling

[mossy badge]

Yeah more than 1 m viewers that's crazy bro

[wide shore]

We should go to #other-games though cause we’re derailing chat. Lol

[wide shore]

I don’t mind the mix. Playing Falck feels like being the ultimate support player

[fervent rose]

I hope they add the grab ammo/health feature from bfh/bfv

[plain hare]

It's definitely fun if you're a medic fan, I just wanna be able to supply without feeling obligated to revive

[fervent rose]

sometimes players are just too oblivious

[wide shore]

Agreed

[plain hare]

Ammo crate feels worthless sometimes because of angel too

[next onyx]

That was a good feature. Hell, Ammo lockers and pick up defibs would be good too.

You can use those as story telling map elements too.

[fervent rose]

bfv ammo boxes in sector points would be fine too

[next onyx]

Defibs in a high risk room indicates that in the past people have needed that.

The people working there.

[wide shore]

More map interaction in general would be nice

[next onyx]

In hardline we had Defibs, med and ammo lockers everywhere.

And in a way it made sense with the map.

[arctic grove]

LEVOLUTION

[next onyx]

It was really cool how a support could pick up defibs and revive a dead teammate.

Would be even better if you had an open slot in your gadget slot and it would be owned for as long as you lived.

[wide shore]

Not that. Anything but that

[arctic grove]

it's not terrible

you're just bad

[fervent rose]

levolution should stay in the past

design a map with good destruction. not some gimmick event

[wide shore]

I liked the health and ammo stations from BFV. And the weapon pickups from the pacific maps

[wide shore]

This my friend. We can both agree on

[fervent rose]

the squad leader calldown box was also nice

[arctic grove]

IDC

[fervent rose]

it should be turned into a dog for 2042

[arctic grove]

I had no problems with levolution

[plain hare]

Levolution would be fun if it wasn't a scripted event, but then again it'd be very unbalanced if it was unscripted and could happen anywhere

[wide shore]

It fundamentally made most maps worse. And most maps that featured big events featured little to no destruction elsewhere.

It was taxing on the hardware especially back then. It’s not worth having if the whole game suffers for it

[arctic grove]

we have the technology now

[plain hare]

I preferred easter eggs like megalodon and screaming yeti

[arctic grove]

use both

[fervent rose]

heavily scripted events arent as cool as natural player driven destruction

[wide shore]

Have moments like the rocket on orbital for the lols. But that should be part of the experience not the whole experience.

[next onyx]

You want tax on the hardware? Imagine if fire on bf5 could spread through the grass!

[fervent rose]

far cry 2 fire

[next onyx]

Imagine the damn GPU trying to render that.

And nvm the servers.

[wide shore]

Spreads like that in GTA V these days too. And RDR2

[fervent rose]

actually lighting up a whole patch on Arras would be incredible

the rats would burn

[next onyx]

Would be cool before your computer starts dying HAH.

[arctic grove]

and bring back gunship

[next onyx]

"It's so pretty!"

[wide shore]

It would be very realistic too. Because you’d feel the warmth of the fire coming through your PC

[next onyx]

The weirdest easter egg I witnessed was one on hardline with a battlefield friends lever on night job with the characters talking about pulling each others levers in the helicopter.

[wide shore]

True immersion

[plain hare]

One levolution event I didn't mind was the one on rogue transmission in bf4 but it sucked

Just a lame event

[fervent rose]

meaningless spectacle at best, at worst it makes the map bad

[wide shore]

Only one I liked was Floodzone.

But I hated floodzone anyway

[fervent rose]

smaller scale levolution things are the way it should work, like how Discarded has map interactions

But discarded is awful so those are mostly meaningless

[plain hare]

Floodzone sucks

[wide shore]

Orbital rocket.

It looks cool. And the map doesn’t suffer because of it

[fervent rose]

Orbital is fine, it looks cool. but It doesn't really add much either

[wide shore]

As it should be

[fervent rose]

but they probably spent a lot of time and money on it

and they were lacking on time

[plain hare]

Unrelated, but does anyone else think Manifest fucking sucks?

[wide shore]

Considering there’s nothing else like it on any other map. Yeah. It cost a lot of time money and resources.

[wide shore]

I love manifest.

[fervent rose]

At first I liked Manifest

Now I never want to see it again

[wide shore]

I never get to see it

[fervent rose]

and the rework did nothing

same map really

[plain hare]

I can agree to disagree, but I think it's my least favorite BF map ever

[wide shore]

Only maps I ever get matchmade into are Breakaway, Hourglass or Exposure. And before 3.2 I hated all of them.

[fervent rose]

i hate new exposure

i hate new exposure

i hate new exposure

go back to old one pls dice for fucks sake

[plain hare]

New exposure is somehow worse than the old one

[wide shore]

Breakaway is tolerable now. Exposure sucks balls and I have always hated it. Hourglass is fine sometimes but it’s just a wide open shithole.

[fervent rose]

The only sector that got better with the new layout is the first starting sector

[wide shore]

I haven’t played on manifest in ages.

[fervent rose]

exposure's middle sector played like hot fire before, now its a snooze

[plain hare]

Hourglass is my guilty pleasure of a map

[wide shore]

I don’t mind hourglass that much. I’d take it over exposure any day. It can be fun. I hardly ever do bad on it. But it’s not the best experience.

[twin fulcrum]

Yeah.

[fervent rose]

hourglass is better than discarded, somehow

[wide shore]

Fighting over the arena is fun. But it’s only 1 sector so you’re doing your team no favors fighting for it

[plain hare]

I know the map sucks but I still love it because I have fun on it

[fervent rose]

they need to make it smaller and rework the dunes heavily, and hourglass would be really fun

if there was a bunch of cover in the dunes it would be a fun map. not the large flat hill shit

[jovial jay]

must be my luck but I actually got a decent amount of quick kill with the Rorsch full auto

[twin fulcrum]

Nice.

Well, Rorsch is not op or bad for me, I think it is alright.

Yeah, if your good at headshots, your gonna destroy everyone there.

But..that's just not me.

[prime ember]

Guys I have an xbox account with gamepass and I have linked it to an EA play one , but I dont have the ea play subscription any idea why ?

In the account management it says that they are linked

[willow sky]

I've seen people complain about the g57

is it too strong?

[chilly jacinth]

its better than all the smgs

[willow sky]

g57 the burst smg

[fervent rose]

they took away smg 2x headshot in one patch, and then later gave g57 the ability to 1 click burst people in the head in another patch @willow sky

you can play the glock like counterstrike if you run laser

and it has higher dps than a lot of primaries

[topaz field]

🤣

[minor horizon]

javelin is the most annoying shit they ever put in the game fr

[low timber]

Lol

[last niche]

it almost makes me mad

how long should i wait for my eahelp case...

[chilly jacinth]

long enough

[arctic grove]

Anyone wonna play bf2042 message me

[timid inlet]

Mother ya fart reporting for d00ty

[hearty rivet]

gang gang

[sharp marten]

You know I’m hoping they bring back the AC-130 back in the next title I love the ANGEL OF DEATH

[edgy oriole]

i can imagine it now. camping map height cap. out of reach from all projectiles. raining down

[hearty rivet]

stg there needs to be sbm

like i shouldnt have a teammate that doesnt know how to throw ammo like neebs bro

[sharp marten]

You want what?

[hearty rivet]

skill based matchmaking

[merry furnace]

maria falk

[sharp marten]

Lmao no bf does not need a sbmm

[arctic grove]

then why are they not adding a server browser

[sharp marten]

Ask them

[arctic grove]

if one of their excuses was sbmm

[hearty rivet]

id love sbmm tho like at least a gamemode with sbmm

[sharp marten]

SBMM absolutely ruins games

[hearty rivet]

if youre not competitive

[sharp marten]

That’s true

But it just isn’t for bf

But SBMM absolutely ruined cod

[arctic grove]

why is cq easier than bt

I swear players in cq are dumber

[edgy oriole]

if they added ranked to bf id play that.

[arctic grove]

or just easier to catch off guard cuz less action

[edgy oriole]

just to filter outt the billy players

[sharp marten]

Did they ever have a ranked mode for bf ?

[calm bison]

Action is spread out across the entire map

[hearty rivet]

exactly it ruins it for me bc cq is my fav

[fervent rose]

bf would have to be like 32 players to have a ranked mode

[sharp marten]

I’d play it also tbh

[fervent rose]

ranked frontlines would be fun tho

[edgy oriole]

frontlines would be a perfect ranked mode

[fervent rose]

if the game had good maps that is

[hearty rivet]

id play tf out of it

[calm bison]

I avoid BT on 2042 outside of a few special gamemodes because of how many sweats there are in there

I am not fighting Enders

Fuck that

[weary summit]

looking to jump into a game origin: ChicagoParamedic

[sharp marten]

Why just camp on Enders big ass forehead?

[calm bison]

Understandable

[sharp marten]

Shining a flashlight on it is the equivalent of getting flash banged

[hearty rivet]

💀

[eager spire]

So i heard the PP2000 is basically on par with the SFAR in terms of BTK now.

I have a question about that. Why?

[sharp marten]

Yup here comes Lycan to complain about some stupid shit again

[fervent rose]

you're still gonna lose trades if they headshot you

[cyan trout]

Would enjoy a frontlines mode regardless of whether it is ranked or not

[edgy oriole]

alex says "why not"

[sharp marten]

[eager spire]

well there are a few reasons why not, one of them being that the gun is an SMG and with this change it is basically one of the best SMG's in the game damage wise, which doesn't make much sense.

[sharp marten]

I ain’t reading All that

[arctic grove]

how

[sharp marten]

I can’t read in general is what I’m saying

[edgy oriole]

gotta tag him. he reads pings

[arctic grove]

doesnt pp2000 take like 10 bullets to kill

[sharp marten]

It’s getting a buff next patch

[fervent rose]

4btk to 50m 650 rof

highly usable

[eager spire]

It got buffed to 28 damage up to 50 meters. It also has a higher firerate than the SFAR.

[fervent rose]

sfar also has a 650 mode but only to 30m

[arctic grove]

when?

[eager spire]

In the 3.2.1 update

which technically hasn't happened yet

[arctic grove]

huh, only saw the mtar

[fervent rose]

this week sometime

[arctic grove]

hm

I need to try it out next week

[sharp marten]

It’s going to be a Beamer

[stiff pollen]

and it has BF3 attachments

[eager spire]

who reads pings?

[arctic grove]

beamer with that portal bloom? That is rich

[arctic grove]

me

[sharp marten]

Fair enough

[fervent rose]

it depends on the gun. m16 now full autos to 150m

[edgy oriole]

alex. and sam. but alex i know for sure

[eager spire]

Ohh, okay.

[arctic grove]

then again m16 is the first portal gun

one of

[sharp marten]

M16 is soooo gooood I love it

[fervent rose]

ye exactly they will maybe get the rest working in time

one can only hope

[arctic grove]

so it had the most changes

[arctic grove]

cant say the same about its sounds and animations

[fervent rose]

ya but it works now

[sharp marten]

Very true but I’m not complaining I love using it

[eager spire]

but yeah it's a bit weird to buff an SMG to the level of one of the best AR's in the game damage wise, making all other SMG's(with an exception for MAYBE the PP29 for it's mag capacity), practically worthless in comparison.

[arctic grove]

I swear I cant use pp29 cuz of a skill issue

[edgy oriole]

you better undo that skill issue

best gun in game behind m5

[arctic grove]

Idk like

its good upclose

but the rof is meh

at medium distances it just sucks in my hands

[edgy oriole]

the rof is what makes it a great gun. you can hipfire like 3 full squads without letting go of the trigger

[stiff pollen]

Nobody gonna use the PP2000 simply cause the BF3 attachments suck outside of the AR’s

[edgy oriole]

and still have ammo left over

[arctic grove]

no it has to be 1200 rpm

[edgy oriole]

[eager spire]

i mean people are definitely gonna use it after the update because it'll be the best SMG in the game in terms of damage

[stiff pollen]

People being the 1% that read patch notes

[arctic grove]

whats its mag cap

[eager spire]

i don't know why people don't read the patch notes.

[arctic grove]

30?

[stark rover]

I don't understand how the older battlefield items and characters are in 2042

[eager spire]

yeah i think it's 30

[stark rover]

I just started playing btw

[edgy oriole]

2042 is a continuation of bf4

[stark rover]

Ahhh

[fervent rose]

they remade the assets / ported old assets

[arctic grove]

30 rounds is gonna scare ppl off

[stark rover]

Right. Can you use them in normal matches?

[arctic grove]

based on the amount of ppl crying bout drum mags

[stiff pollen]

Which is getting reverted

[sharp marten]

Alex give me a sign oh great gun man bestowith to me your gun knowledge in Alex we trust

[fervent rose]

Some of the originally portal only content has been moved over into regular games yea @stark rover

[stark rover]

Coolio

[arctic grove]

alex give us a modern ar-15

[fervent rose]

and we may get more 1942 (bfv) guns for example

[sharp marten]

Alex don’t do whatever nikel just said

[arctic grove]

fuck you

[sharp marten]

Fuck you

[arctic grove]

no fuck you

[sharp marten]

No fuck you buddy

[arctic grove]

fuck me? fuck you!

[sharp marten]

Fuck? Fuck you

[arctic grove]

fuck? fuck

[fervent rose]

and you can play on some of the old maps in Exodus Conquest when thats up

[sharp marten]

Ckuf fuck

[arctic grove]

fuck

[sharp marten]

Fuck

[eager spire]

i mean the extended mags for the SFAR are like, what, 40 rounds? 30 rounds for an SMG that does basically the same damage at basically the same ranges while having a slightly higher rate of fire does not seem that bad.

[stark rover]

Is that an ltm or will it be out indefinitely after it's launched

[sharp marten]

That’s a lot of fucking fucks

[fervent rose]

its limited but there like at least half the time

[arctic grove]

and zero ar-15s

change that

[sharp marten]

No

[arctic grove]

yes

[sharp marten]

If it ain’t a bullpup Alex don’t want it

[stark rover]

Whos alex

[edgy oriole]

exodus is permanent but labeled as limited bc sometimes they cycle it out for a week or 2 to make room for new map specific playlist.

but it always comes back

[fervent rose]

a weapon design dev for dice

[sharp marten]

Funny gun man that works at dice

[arctic grove]

well that fucking sucks

[fervent rose]

he talks here so people constantly mention him

[arctic grove]

we need a new weapon designer

[sharp marten]

We love Alex

And Sam

[arctic grove]

cuz I hate bullpups

and love ar-15s

[sharp marten]

And Kevin Kevin’s a pretty cool cat

[arctic grove]

mw22 was heaven for me

[edgy oriole]

is dmr a ar-10?

[arctic grove]

not full auto

ar discarded

[sharp marten]

Better idea

Dual wielding

[arctic grove]

better idea

[sharp marten]

[arctic grove]

sex

[fervent rose]

Akimbo full auto glocks

[sharp marten]

Ayo

[edgy oriole]

woah

not pre marital i hoope.

[sharp marten]

Please keep it family friendly for fucks sake

[arctic grove]

fucking hell, fucking sorry mate fuck

[sharp marten]

No fucking problem friend

[stark rover]

Also, I am very unfamiliar with war terminology. What is materiel and personnel

[arctic grove]

but I would love a bikini skin for falck

[fervent rose]

materiel is like anything usable, and personnel is people

[sharp marten]

Personnel is oriole

[edgy oriole]

material = vehicle
person = person.

[sharp marten]

Now I’m going to quiz you

[fervent rose]

so like ammo is a materiel, or bombs

[stark rover]

Ah

[sharp marten]

What’s ICBM stand for?

[stark rover]

Me?

[sharp marten]

Yes

[stark rover]

Idk isn't it a rocket or something

[fervent rose]

ye

[sharp marten]

This mf is smart

[fervent rose]

its the ones that go across the ocean

[stark rover]

Ah

[sharp marten]

It’s the one that causes a Fortnite event but in real life

[arctic grove]

next question. What is bullet

[sharp marten]

Next question what are the launch codes for the minuteman ICBM

[stark rover]

Killy thingy

[arctic grove]

which one

[sharp marten]

This dude really is the CEO of France

[stark rover]

Small to medium killy thingya

[arctic grove]

ceo of france

can u dismiss france

[stark rover]

Need to know basis only sry

[sharp marten]

It’s ok I understand

[stark rover]

I can try but my board might shoot me down

[sharp marten]

I am rapidly approaching your location btw

[stark rover]

[fervent rose]

[stark rover]

So thats how red astronauts walk

[arctic grove]

black screen after match, keeps happening everytime i play and need to alt+f4 and launch again

console works so its not frozen

[edgy oriole]

try verifying files or repair them

[arctic grove]

devs know bout this so a fix is on the way

i did and no effect

[ebon pilot]

Inter-Continental Ballistic Missile

[arctic grove]

good

[arctic grove]

also known as a little bit of trolling

[sharp marten]

THST WASNT FOR PIZZA

[ebon pilot]

too bad

nobody got it

[sharp marten]

so there’s a bug with my weapons when it runs out of bullets it just stops shooting anyone know a fix?

[ebon pilot]

Pick up a new gun off the ground

e z

[sharp marten]

I can’t looting dead combatants is a war crime

[ebon pilot]

only if someone finds out about it

[sharp marten]

I like the way you think

Join my corporate team

[arctic grove]

so is shooting parachuting soldiers

I know you've been doing that

[sharp marten]

That’s why I throw knifes at them

You don’t KNOW ME

[arctic grove]

I do

Stop with the excuses and lies

also

knives*

pp-29 with warhawk compensator is so fun

[sharp marten]

I love you

Not you poly

https://tenor.com/view/farcry6-gif-23383353

[stark rover]

Is 2042 world war 3

?

[sharp marten]

Basically

[arctic grove]

actually no

its world war III

[sharp marten]

Wait what defines ww3

[stark rover]

Is it us v Russia?

[sharp marten]

Yes

[stark rover]

Ahh

I like how when you play as Russia, you get ppl speaking russian on comms

[arctic grove]

russian lines are fucking stupid

like random soldier lines

they literally translated every random english line

like "no fucking way"

is

"hell no" in russian

its so fucking dumb

and my fav russian line is

"source of inconvenience" (bots line when they ping something)

i miss b3 and bf4 lines

[stark rover]

What are they like?

[arctic grove]

like honest russian lines

with swear words

that dont sound like fake hollywood lines

[arctic grove]

where you heard this? its not in the known issues page

community manager said on answers hq

[eager spire]

it's weird that it's not on the Known Issues page then

you'd think the community manager would update that

at least i'd think that

[arctic grove]

it just keeps happening, got it two time in the row after match ended

[acoustic seal]

but this discord told me it was just me and a problem with my internet connection 🤔

[eager spire]

whoever told you that was full of shit! :D

[acoustic seal]

that seems to happen a lot, weird

[eager spire]

yeah, i know right

it's weird

[sharp marten]

Try not to complain challenge level impossible

[acoustic seal]

my argument when a redditor accuses me of complaining: 💥

[arctic grove]

why not complain about issue that makes the game unplayable, literally

[sharp marten]

Not you

[eager spire]

i mean i think an issue that does pretty blatantly prevent someone from playing the video game is worth complaining about

Don't see what the issue is here

[sharp marten]

I wasn’t talking about you I was talking about lycan

[arctic grove]

i cant find anything about the black screen issue after match in forums

so where exaclty it is

link it

its not same as people not being able to launch the game

with black screen

[sharp marten]

Does it just keep black screening you consistently?

[arctic grove]

just trust me

after match is completed

black screen

[eager spire]

bruh that is the least encouraging thing you could've said

[arctic grove]

oh well

i mean if you know that community manager said it you can show where

not that hard

[sharp marten]

Doing a little tomfoolery are we?

[arctic grove]

not at all

i mean

[sharp marten]

[arctic grove]

I made up the part where they say a fix is coming

but the manager acknowledged it so

its basically fixed

[acoustic seal]

lol

[arctic grove]

tf

the team def knows bout that

[sharp marten]

[arctic grove]

or did you make that up too

no

no image perms so eh

[eager spire]

Something being acknowledged does not mean it's fixed

[sharp marten]

Send them to me nikel

I’ll post

[arctic grove]

pay me to send

[sharp marten]

Double it and give it to the next person

[arctic grove]

1 sec need to pull out the answers hq page

[sharp marten]

He gave me a link to click now my bank account is at -100,000

[arctic grove]

watch preston send an uncropped ss of a ss

[arctic grove]

lol

[sharp marten]

[arctic grove]

that means not much

[acoustic seal]

isn't it crazy how often people make shit up in this server

[sharp marten]

Yeah it’s pretty funny

[eager spire]

it's something to do innit

[arctic grove]

its basically the same as saying that its gonna be fixed in the next update bro

wdym

[sharp marten]

What is the industrial werewolves of the world

[arctic grove]

take your pills

[sharp marten]

I’m just reading what’s on Lucan’s name

[arctic grove]

take em'

[sharp marten]

No I don’t want to

[arctic grove]

didnt ask

[arctic grove]

next update patch notes dont say anything about it.

[sharp marten]

He’s a lair

[arctic grove]

I really am

also

they do a lot of stealth patching

cuz the patch note guy is lazy

[eager spire]

DICE did state that 3.2.1 is the last planned update before Season 4

[limpid pond]

Every breakaway game I join literally lasts for 2 minutes. Idk why but it puts me in already over games on the new map

[sharp marten]

You’re just that good

[limpid pond]

Bull because I spawn in on the losing team

[lilac dust]

Using the PP 2000 in the SMG rush mode in portal is 👌

[limpid pond]

Yes

Only place it's somewhat relative at

[lilac dust]

and then on Tuesday it'll be great in the rest of the game 😉

[errant scarab]

Is this the section for complaints?

[ebon pilot]

I'm surprised they don't use a system that can automatically make patch notes.

At my work, every git commit needs a line attached indicating what release note should be made with the change.

[limpid pond]

No go to General

[ebon pilot]

Then we use a script to gather them all

[arctic grove]

so, found posts in reddit from 7 months ago about the black screen after match

yet its still in the game

[limpid pond]

Yeah but its still rare to get

[sharp marten]

Yup just let me grab my bingo board

[arctic grove]

get it every day

[limpid pond]

Haven't had the issue since season one

[arctic grove]

two times in row today

[limpid pond]

Must be a pc or internet issue

[sharp marten]

You’re on pc lise?

[arctic grove]

its not

[sharp marten]

I haven’t had that issue on Xbox

[limpid pond]

Has to be. I'm on console with no issues

[sharp marten]

Console>

[limpid pond]

I wouldn't say that

[sharp marten]

Con>

[limpid pond]

But console is better since I don't game a shit ton anymore

[arctic grove]

well obviously can be pc only but still effects a ton of people

[sharp marten]

Skill issue tbh

[lilac dust]

Actually Imma farm with the AKS in the smg rush mode since PP is getting that buff next week. I may aswell enjoy an AKS that performs well for a limited time

[limpid pond]

Where you getting the rush smg mode? It's not popping up for

Me

[lilac dust]

it's a featured mode

[limpid pond]

Yeah not popping up for me

[lilac dust]

next to conquest of ages in the main portal featured modes

Maybe restart your game?

[sharp marten]

Skill issue

[limpid pond]

You're just wrong

[sharp marten]

Understandable I’m sorry

[median path]

when does season 4 start?

[arctic grove]

when season 3 ends

[lilac dust]

Nah I'm betting season 4 starts when the next map releases

[crimson basin]

I'm waiting to see that Hourglass rework

[lilac dust]

Gonna be a long wait for that, but I have faith it'll be worth the wait

Crash some building

That would make good verticality if done right

[cloud bramble]

This game is cancer but you deliberately don't get chemotherapy

[jovial jay]

Play bf1 or V

Its much less agonizing than this lol

[cloud bramble]

I know man everyone says so

But

Thing is

[jovial jay]

Especially in Discarded if you want final stage cancer

[cloud bramble]

I can't play warzone

But I need to scratch that itch

[jovial jay]

Discarded, Manifest, Renewal, everytime I play them I get a bit of brain aneurysm

[limpid pond]

How. Those maps are solid

This game is pretty normal if you're good

[errant scarab]

lol

[jovial copper]

offer to dice in the descripion, just to be shorter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-qjBZaLW7o

[mighty holly]

[remote meteor]

Hourglass was reworked already💀💀💀

There is no way they would rework it a second time

[arctic grove]

wut

[sharp marten]

Hourglass hasn’t been reworked yet

[remote meteor]

It was?

[sharp marten]

It wasn’t

[remote meteor]

ah

yea

Just points moved

[wide shore]

It was not changed at all. Breakthrough points being moved maybe. But nothing else

[arctic grove]

Are you perhaps misremembering 128 bt being removed so it went to the 64p bt layout?

[wide shore]

That’s not a rework anyway. It’s getting a proper rework in Season 4.

[sharp marten]

Can’t wait to see what the homies are at dice/ea are working on rework wise

[stone oar]

This probably gets asked a lot so I apologize if it's the wrong channel or something. Haven't played since the first major patch. What's the situation with the mobility and maps? Are the maps still empty and is there still too much mobility?

[drowsy shuttle]

containers, sandbags, small brick walls and containers.

[sharp marten]

Best rework

[remote meteor]

Containers ftw…

[sharp marten]

Two more map reworks but a lot of them are pretty good

[willow sky]

wait you're forgetting something!
containers.

[remote meteor]

New map in africa will have lots of containers 100%

[drowsy shuttle]

oh you're right. well remembered

[arctic grove]

You’re good man. The reworked maps have added a lot of cover assets to help traversal and break down overly large engagement ranges, but the game is simply still going to have fast movement because the maps are larger, you wouldn’t want slow movement on maps 2042s size

[stone oar]

Alright thanks lads. I'm not concerned about the movement as much as I am about being able to flank too easily.

[arctic grove]

Np

[drowsy shuttle]

jokes aside, imo breakaway its their best rework map so far. i really like it

[arctic grove]

Agreed

[eager spire]

to be honest people who complain about "too much mobility" are the kind of people that can't aim at people that are doing more than walking.
