battlefield-2042

[rocky kraken]

just got killed with a guy

that has sniper scope on ak

...

[arctic grove]

..

uninstall

[fervent rose]

ak can beam

[magic bloom]

AK is mid as fuck which is why I love it

It’s decent at everything

[rocky kraken]

god

the pp200 view

is like in your eyeballs

takes up the entire screen

[magic bloom]

Have you seen the MTAR?

[rocky kraken]

why dice

add a gun fov

[fervent rose]

shit irons? havent equipped pp2000 yet

[rocky kraken]

no

[magic bloom]

Shit everything.

[rocky kraken]

when normal running

it takes up everything

it bothers me they keep releasing these roblox guns

[magic bloom]

I haven’t got the EBR yet is it good

[rocky kraken]

and not fixing them

one shot headshot with suprpesor

its bugged

[fervent rose]

EBR is only good because its broken

[rocky kraken]

yea

[limpid pond]

Just got done doing my no aim assist warmup

Now time to fry

[magic bloom]

Clown activities

[rocky kraken]

yall think they are gonna fix any of the vault weps

[limpid pond]

No

[magic bloom]

Prolly not

[rocky kraken]

great

[limpid pond]

Doubtful

[rocky kraken]

feels like 2004

[magic bloom]

Probably fix the EBR then say fuck the rest

[fervent rose]

fix as in make them look/sound better? nah

[rocky kraken]

by fix i mean animations

[magic bloom]

Ohhh

[rocky kraken]

welp

because

[magic bloom]

Probably not

[fervent rose]

they did already do a tiny bit of that but yea its doubtful

[rocky kraken]

they did it with teh p90

felt like shit

then they fixed it

[magic bloom]

I cant wait for the MP5 to be added to 2042 (seriously HK please innovate)

[rocky kraken]

i just hope

that shit ton of portal weps will be good qualityt

the rpk and aug

[fervent rose]

i would like the mark vi revolver from bfv immediately

[rocky kraken]

isnt that

in the gaem

[fervent rose]

its in portal

[magic bloom]

I Just want one of the Italian chad shotguns (the Benelli M4 or the Beretta 1301)

[rocky kraken]

its ass

animation

sound

i cant believe it

[magic bloom]

Why they added the Spas 12 I’ll never know

Can’t even put the safety in half the time without it clicking a round off

[rocky kraken]

also

the new 1942 shotgun

got changed where you have to hipfire

[magic bloom]

Isn’t it the Auto 5?

[rocky kraken]

somethin

but its like teh spas now

cant aim down sights

[magic bloom]

You can’t ADS with the spas?

What kinda shit

[rocky kraken]

i think one of the spas

not sure with iteration

[drowsy shuttle]

M16 is kinda good now?

[rocky kraken]

yeah

just sounds bad

[sour steeple]

one of the best ARs

[rocky kraken]

headshots are good

dozer

needs a rework

my boi is neglected

[slender isle]

M16 is the best AR currently

[drowsy shuttle]

Hum i might take it to a spin then

[rocky kraken]

the two coolest characters casper and dozer negvlected

[drowsy shuttle]

Better than BSV? I doubt it

[slender isle]

Better

M16 has second lowest AR recoil, has extremely high accuracy, 5 hits at basically all ranges

and has an 850rpm

[rocky kraken]

too bad they resuse animations

so like 5 guns have m5a3 animation

[sour steeple]

800rpm

[rocky kraken]

all feel like the same gun

[slender isle]

Yes this sorry

[magic bloom]

He does not he’s fine.

You leave my Mexican shield maiden alone god damn it

[sour steeple]

but yes i beam ppl at 200m with it easily. great weapon to get ppl out og headglitches

[rocky kraken]

shield needs more

its just boring

guns

[magic bloom]

When you get dozer to tier 1 something happens and he suddenly becomes the best specialist in the game

[rocky kraken]

attached to it

shotguns

[magic bloom]

It would be cool to be able to one arm the smaller smgs around the shield but that would be op

[rocky kraken]

godly

yea

i mean

guns in the shield

shottys

[magic bloom]

Maybe a pistol with low damage

[rocky kraken]

its own pistol

[magic bloom]

I mean I like his kit

It’s fun and the explosive resistance is nice on the inside of exposure when it’s just grenade after grenade

[uneven lodge]

finally after 26 hours of battlefield i got the position where im behind half the enemy team and could shoot all of them, i got 1 kill before dying

[uneven lodge]

i am aware

i just like complaining

[rocky kraken]

happens to me all the time

i potato

[uneven lodge]

time to play more battlefield

my calling is for MMGs

prone a high activity corridor

bababababap x100

[cobalt wave]

mg42 in bf5 could lock down half the team on the right map

[uneven lodge]

i should try the mg42 sometime

[fervent rose]

the 1922 was even better

[uneven lodge]

maybe next game after i finished dailies

[fervent rose]

that thing mowed players down

[rocky kraken]

svk users

are scum

sorry

but they are

[void cape]

This game still a broken mess?

[edgy oriole]

game been fixed since season 1

[rocky kraken]

cant wait for discarded rework

[drowsy shuttle]

Yes it sucks... but only part that sucks is the players. Jesus christ, dice give us good teammates.

[rocky kraken]

by far the worst looking and playing map

maybe besides hourglass

[royal swan]

That's a thing dice can't fix

[void cape]

I want something like Battlefield: Civil War.

And for Neebs to voice every character.

[royal swan]

Even pre bfv dice couldn't fix teammates

[drowsy shuttle]

I want a porsche

[edgy oriole]

it would have to be a steampunk civil war for it too work. i dont think majority of FPS people are ready for muskets

[void cape]

What about something like Battlefield: Vietnam?

[rocky kraken]

im getting reckt

[topaz field]

Did they buff sniper rifle accuracy? I picked up one off a enemy today while i was playing as sundance and was just pumping out headshots. I havent used a sniper rifle since update 3.0

[slender isle]

Will Dice ever give the ACWR the correct rate of fire

I pray for the day

[hearty rivet]

do people actually use the acwr??

[arctic grove]

look at BF history

[slender isle]

No

because it sucks

and has the wrong fire rate

it has 720 currently, in bf3 it has 800, in bf4 it had 850

[hearty rivet]

well it is 2042

[rocky kraken]

fix acwr texture

problem with protal guns

they have no detail

[slender isle]

It's a vault weapon

[rocky kraken]

just one color

bad texture

[slender isle]

as in... BF3 port

[hearty rivet]

no shit really?

[slender isle]

So it has the wrong RPM when compared to it's actual self 10 years ago

[hearty rivet]

and i said it is 2042

if you havent noticed the game isnt the best

[slender isle]

Yes... but it's a bf3 gun. So you'd hope it would have bf3 stats in portal. It does not

[inner roost]

It looks pretty much like the actual Remington ACR I don't see what's wrong with it

[hearty rivet]

and youd hope theyd have fixed some of their other guns but they havent

[slender isle]

What other guns?

[eager spire]

it's basically worthless as an AR because it only has 26 rounds in a mag for some reason

[slender isle]

26 rounds, 6 shot kill, 720rpm, high accuracy, low recoil

kinda shit

[low timber]

The miss aligned flash hider on the ACW-R

[hearty rivet]

all the op ass guns and the guns that arent even close to being in competition with other guns

[rocky kraken]

yall

if there is more than 3 guns in s4

[slender isle]

I mean, every gun is competitive outside of the ACWR and M1911

[rocky kraken]

im pretty sure there will be

m1911

is good

doesnt it one shot headshot

or soemthing

[slender isle]

3 hit kill, 7 rounds in the mag. Does not 1 hit

High recoil too

[rocky kraken]

ah

imma try it rn

[slender isle]

Rex is a much better option

[rocky kraken]

wish they added more attachments

for portal

some have like 1

[hearty rivet]

take into consideration why the avancy is one of the most used guns and its an lmg just think abt it

[slender isle]

I am currently using it. it 6 hits at all ranges. Is outperformed by the LCMG at close range. It also has weird accuracy values which makes the bullets just miss at 30m

[eager spire]

remember that DICE is concerned about combat uptime

They nerfed extended and drum mags for that reason

Yet, the LMG's exist.

Seems like their priorities are a bit weird.

[slender isle]

You can outperform LMGs in close range thanks to their fire delay

[eager spire]

yeah but they're still basically AR's with massive mags

but DICE doesn't seem concerned about "combat uptime" with them

[pine roost]

By their definition, the close combat mags are best used because of the faster ttk up close but requires more picking and choosing of fights. Larger mags let you continuously fight without needing to take cover, as you know. But lmgs with their ads speed make them much less useful at close range, in a fair one on one against someone else with close range mags they’d most likely lose. So yes they have a lot of combat time, but they can’t use that combat time in close quarters like ARs with extended mags

[eager spire]

Also, this game has 128 players. I think giving AR's like, 10-20 additional bullets in their mags is not that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things

and if it was a concern, maybe they should've thought about this before releasing the game.

because their concern about it and attempted nerfs just seem like trying to shut the barn door after the horses have already left.

[slender isle]

Oh wow, great thoughts over here

[pine roost]

You could say that about any and all balancing changes. Things change after being launched, that’s just how it goes. This was one of those adjustments because frankly it is true that extended mags reign supreme

But there just isn’t really any viable way of evening them out

[slender isle]

You just extend out the reload times and add additional recoil with extended mags

[eager spire]

I just don't think it's a problem. I don't see why it's suddenly a concern they have.

[royal swan]

I don't like all of this punishment that has constantly been put into games

[rocky kraken]

bring back exodus conquest

best mode

[acoustic seal]

spreadsheet based balancing

[eager spire]

literally

[acoustic seal]

MAKE USAGE NUMBER GO DOWN

ALEX SMASH

[royal swan]

Instead of nerfing the drum mags, they should buff the other mags

[eager spire]

but how would you buff the other mags in ways that make sense?

[slender isle]

Heres the thing: LMGs are balanced, they excel at medium range due to their bullet count, but they have bad accuracy unless prone or crouched. In close range their fire delay will get them killed against an AR or SMG. ARs with extended mags have no downsides. But, all of the weapon classes have their niche like SMGs shredding in close range and ARs shredding in close to medium, LMGs at medium to long, DMRs at medium to long, Snipers at long, Shotguns at short.

[rocky kraken]

eh

lmgs are beams

even without prone

[royal swan]

Idc if it makes sense or not, I'm tired of the constant punishing

[tough folio]

worst take ever

[slender isle]

Using the avancys I can tell you my bullets definitely do not go straight

[royal swan]

K30 for example

[eager spire]

I think the SMG effectiveness in it's "niche" has been hampered by it's nerf, because people were complaining about the K30 doing well in it. Now they'd get owned by decent AR users in that range.

[royal swan]

Or the entire smg category

[acoustic seal]

avancys is the only lmg that has spread lol, and it was specifically added because it's just a higher damage lcmg

[slender isle]

Kinda? I mean it's on a per smg bases atm. PBX is amazing, as is the bizon and p90. K30 is great within 10m

[pine roost]

Kind of dug themselves into a ditch because these maps sizes do not allow the smg to be consistently viable

[slender isle]

It actually does less damage than the LCMG and M60 and M240B

[eager spire]

Plus their vision doesn't allow the SMG to "reward accuracy versus other weapon types"

[slender isle]

It's second lowest damage LMG, only lower is the PkP

or PPK

whatever it is

[royal swan]

Why must we have mostly everything in this game utter trash

[pine roost]

Saying it shouldn’t reward accuracy probably wasn’t the best way to describe it

[acoustic seal]

well, because everything they add is wildly overpowered

[slender isle]

When everything is OP nothing is

[eager spire]

well that was the way that someone who was paid to make decisions at DICE chose to describe it. So I can only assume that it is in line with whatever their vision for the game is.

If they didn't want me to think their vision was ridiculous, maybe they shouldn't make insane statements like this.

[slender isle]

SMGs shouldn't reward accuracy at range

[eager spire]

They should reward accuracy, full stop.

[slender isle]

Why? Does that not make them small ARs?

[eager spire]

You should be rewarded for fucking hitting your shots in an FPS game.

[fervent rose]

its more that they lose in fights where they shouldnt due to the hs changes, its a dps loss if you're both headshotting each other

[eager spire]

This should not be a debate.

[rocky kraken]

holy hell

[acoustic seal]

that's when you introduce spread to keep them in an intended range instead of fucking with players who aim their gun

[rocky kraken]

svk spammers man

[royal swan]

ANY GUN SHOULD REWARD THE PLAYER IF THEY HAVE GOOD ACCURACY

[rocky kraken]

nerf that damn gun

[slender isle]

Exactly, that's how it should be

I'm sure if we ask alex nice enough we'll get a change

[uneven lodge]

use the correct gun for the correct purpose and have damage dropoff

[drowsy shuttle]

I agree. but then the player base would reduce drastically... there would be even a bigger gap between good players and scrubs... so the scrubs would quit out of frustration

[eager spire]

OH WELL

[uneven lodge]

such as after 150m smg bullets just disappear

[drowsy shuttle]

but i agree with you, accuracy should be rewarded

[acoustic seal]

shitters hate crutch mechanics too, nobody is talking about or playing mw22 anymore

[slender isle]

Accuracy should be rewarded. Just not on an smg at 300m

[royal swan]

You can see that fuck up in the cod franchise

[eager spire]

Like, i am genuinely apathetic to the concerns of people that get upset when people are better than them.

Genuinely. I do not care.

[royal swan]

They no longer reward skill players, they actually punished good players and rewards bad ones

[ebon arrow]

who wants to play tummy sticks?

[rocky kraken]

wahts taht

[uneven lodge]

encourages more players to play

[drowsy shuttle]

indeed

[eager spire]

It is the way of any competitive form of entertainment.

[uneven lodge]

keeps the skill ceiling lower

[eager spire]

There are going to be people that are better than you.

[royal swan]

Ended up costing them 80% ish of the cod player base

[eager spire]

That's just a fact of life. You have to deal with that, and get better.

[uneven lodge]

in turn makes more money for the company

[fervent rose]

yes, to "play" and that word gets less meaningful every new cod game

[royal swan]

400,000 to just under 100,000 on steam

[fervent rose]

I only tried dmz, but holy mw2 is dog

70 for that

ha

[uneven lodge]

i don’t feel the difference between 100,000 and 10,000 players

[royal swan]

Oh and why did they removed the one shot close range on snipers

[uneven lodge]

why should i between 400k and 100k

[slender isle]

SMGs with less accuracy and a HS modifier of 1.75 would be perfect middle ground correct?

Less accuracy in full auto*

[royal swan]

The most bullshit thing they ever done

[uneven lodge]

because snipers are broken

[slender isle]

If you tap fire sure

[eager spire]

1.5x would be justified. It would at least mean headshots would do something rather than doing barely anything like they are now.

[ebon arrow]

So nobody wants to play tummy sticks I take it?

[slender isle]

Because they're snipers and should be used at a long range

[drowsy shuttle]

best of mw2 is the campaign, gunsmith with lot of costumization and DMZ.. although they dropped the ball with DMZ.. had great potential but after a while its pointless to play it... also not really high risk high reward.. if you die and lose everything you can get all gear up again in the next match or 2

[acoustic seal]

set hsm to 2x for all guns and stop touching it

[slender isle]

Exactly. All we need is a change in HS multiplier

[uneven lodge]

who brings a heavy rifle meant to hit targets at long range to hit people at short range

[slender isle]

No

[royal swan]

Just increase the hip fire, players shouldn't be punished by using a rifle in close range when they are outgunned by every other weapon

[eager spire]

or what vfc said. fuck it.

there was not a problem with the hsm anyway

the problem was with the K30

[slender isle]

What do you want? COD sniping in a BF game?

[fervent rose]

shotguns shouldnt have 2x hs lmao

[eager spire]

but they fucked themselves up with that.

[fervent rose]

but yea revert the smg

[slender isle]

Hell they're bad as they are they need all they can

[fervent rose]

what

[royal swan]

Name another fps that has snipers not one shot players close range

[eager spire]

Like, they fucked themselves up when they made the K30. They can't remove it now.

[acoustic seal]

i'm in the radical "shotguns shouldn't OHK at all" camp but yeah sure whatever

[eager spire]

my man

[uneven lodge]

uhh bf5

[slender isle]

I mean... NTW?

[fervent rose]

bfv had the best balanced sniping in any bf

[slender isle]

You wanna close range snipe? You got the ntw

[fervent rose]

no up close bodyshot

[uneven lodge]

only AMRs can oneshot bodies

[slender isle]

You crazy

[uneven lodge]

headshot sniper still ohk

[eager spire]

personally i'm in the even more radical "why have shotguns in the game at all" camp. The close range niche already has SMG's for that.

[royal swan]

That's absolutely bullshit

[uneven lodge]

because shotguns are part of the gun family

[royal swan]

You know, a game can take heat when they removed sniper ohk in close range

[eager spire]

ok and

[fervent rose]

the game isnt serious enough to remove shotguns

[royal swan]

But removing that from shotguns, you just fucked yourself 10x over

[uneven lodge]

and cant be left out and be different from all other fps

[eager spire]

why not

[slender isle]

SMGS with a 1.5-1.75 HSM would be perfect middle ground. Change how they work in full auto (longer they're fired the less accuracy they have).

[uneven lodge]

it also demolishes indoor cqc

[eager spire]

SMG's exist

[slender isle]

Why have DMRs if we have snipers and ARs

[royal swan]

Shotguns are already fucking nerf from range, even slugs are terrible

[eager spire]

Exactly.

[slender isle]

Why have SMGs if we have ARs

[acoustic seal]

0ms deaths are frustrating to everyone, take them out of the game. shotguns are already way easier due to pellets, there's no need to give them the ability to instantly delete someone off the game

[uneven lodge]

smgs require more than one shot to kill

[eager spire]

yes.

[uneven lodge]

shotguns at that range is a cone of death

[slender isle]

They'd become obsolete

[arctic grove]

Good argument. Was thinking to find the words to say this as well

You can agree to lose DMRs as well, but that is immediately walking into a problem with gun variety and total amount of content

[eager spire]

hey gotta have full auto weapons that work well in the mid range.

[uneven lodge]

smgs can at least dominate in 5-20m ranges

[eager spire]

because SMG's can't do that.

at least not easily.

[slender isle]

ARs can achieve the same effect of SMGs in close range if they are designed that way

[fervent rose]

battlefield is filled with unfortunate 0ms deaths

[slender isle]

M5 with short barrel and close quarter rounds for example

[uneven lodge]

my favourite death is AMRed from some dude from narnia

[eager spire]

that sounds like an issue with the plus system

[slender isle]

Remove plus system... still have M5 with close quarter rounds and a short barrel

You can still fight at medium range

[uneven lodge]

or have one guy in a bush for no reason

[slender isle]

with an accuracy debuff

[acoustic seal]

magazines HAVE TO be removed from the plus system

[fervent rose]

???

[slender isle]

The random sniper headshot from 900m away

[eager spire]

yeah but you wouldn't be as effective, and you'd be stuck like that till you die and change the setup

[arctic grove]

Yeah lmao or the NTW

Like come on

[royal swan]

Removing shotguns ohk close range is the equivalent to removing the ohk on headshot from snipers and marksman

[eager spire]

No it's not.

[royal swan]

Yeah it is

[fervent rose]

some guns would cease to function unless they also majorly changed ammo pools

they should make it harder to land subsequent shots, even in hipfire

[slender isle]

Exactly... Still an AR that fits the SMG niche. All I'm saying is the weapon variety of a game is needed. Shotguns are there because they are shotguns and fit their own niche. Removing DMRs would be stupid because they're just ARs and snipers mushed together, but that's the reason they were made

[acoustic seal]

at a bare minimum you have to aim with a sniper rifle, shotguns are an automatic win within like 20m which is garbage

[eager spire]

And i'll tell you why that's not the case, because it takes a lot more effort to hit a headshot on someone with a bolt action or marksman rifle from a distance than it does to oneshot someone in CQB with a shotgun.

It is not equivalent.

[uneven lodge]

5m

[acoustic seal]

not in this game

[uneven lodge]

and at that distance your opponent can be jumping like a monkey

[royal swan]

In most cases it's two shots, I only seen one hit kills when you are breathing in their face

[uneven lodge]

secondly getting into that range is very difficult

without firstly dying

[royal swan]

Also each shot is inconsistent

[slender isle]

within 10m really. You can outclass a shotgun past that

[uneven lodge]

your enemy must be really stupid or you’re really good at flanking

[royal swan]

You can one hit kill in a farther range but a second shot at the same range won't ohk

[acoustic seal]

haven't people been bitching about mackay since launch since his kit lets you get into positions you shouldn't be able to? don't claim it's difficult now

[uneven lodge]

sometimes half my team gets wiped because of a guy that went a full circle around the map to flank us from behind

and they bring a shotgun

[eager spire]

Sundance as well.

[fervent rose]

getting in close isnt that hard but most of the maps arent shotgun maps

[royal swan]

Sundance is "ok" at best

[eager spire]

hey

[uneven lodge]

that takes alot of stealth and skill to do

[eager spire]

people still complain about their mobility

[pine roost]

I honestly don’t think I’ve ever touched a shotgun, they just don’t feel as fun to use

[royal swan]

I thought it was the single scatter grenade that people complain about

[fervent rose]

12m drum was a laugh

[eager spire]

either that or mobility

[arctic grove]

2042 is yet to have any map where they’re really useful for an entire games worth of playtime

Unless you meant in general

[fervent rose]

@pine roost i would full auto people from on top of the stranded boat with the 12m, it was hilarious

that gun was so busted

[arctic grove]

Stranded is okay for the shotgun but you’d have to stick to the ship part

[pine roost]

Both really. I don’t find them enjoyable in general and there’s not been a situation where I wish I had one

[royal swan]

Slugs in bf games are always terrible

[pine roost]

I could potentially use for for only a couple seconds before ranges get far enough as to make them useless compared to any automatic weapon

[fervent rose]

yeah, 2042 isnt a shotgun game

[royal swan]

They don't know how to properly use them

[pine roost]

Of which can perform just as well up close

[fervent rose]

in general the maps just are insanely big

and other guns beam to 150m, shotgun limits you

[uneven lodge]

thats battlefield

[royal swan]

This game is by far the more forgiving when it comes to shotguns

[arctic grove]

Which inadvertently is why there’s no reason to honestly believe they shouldn’t ohk imo

[eager spire]

so what is it, should they be here cause they "fill a niche", or should they not be here because they're barely useful.

[uneven lodge]

i like battlefield because of the insanely big maps

[arctic grove]

They’re already fucked over by Battlefields general map design, so why bother with that

[eager spire]

well too bad i believe that anyway because i think that is generally annoying regardless of the game.

[arctic grove]

Battlefield should continue to have maps that promote purely infantry gameplay in cqb spaces

Therefore shotguns have a map where they are effective

[eager spire]

This one sure fucking doesn't

[fervent rose]

hamada was huge and slow paced in bfv and they were like, how can we make this even slower and less exciting

[uneven lodge]

not having them would be weird so leave them in, its not like it causes any problems and if people manage to use it well good for them

[arctic grove]

Well aware of that and DICE is too, let’s not forget what DICE is going for with the new season maps

[royal swan]

We don't even have a map that is small enough to make shotguns the true reason people hate them

We don't even have metro

[eager spire]

i think people would get used to it. The only people that would hate it are the people that can't instantly win close range fights anymore.

[uneven lodge]

won’t have the battlefield vibe then

[eager spire]

And honestly those people can just leave and it'd be a net positive for everyone.

[arctic grove]

It’s not like missing once can actually jeapordize a shotgun user even in cqb

or something crazy like that

[uneven lodge]

yes lets remove some players because u hate them

[eager spire]

...Yes.

[royal swan]

I believe vehicles should take more skill to kill

[arctic grove]

You’re entitled to believe that but it’s honestly ridiculous tbh

But I mean

It’s not like this is a serious balancing suggestion anyways so eh

We’re just people who play the games talking about em lol

[royal swan]

But to balance it out, vehicles should take more skill to use

[eager spire]

so you just want vehicles to be like they were in BF4.

[arctic grove]

BF4 has the best infantry to armor balancing imo

Yes

[royal swan]

Oh yeah

[fervent rose]

lmao bf4 was a total vehicle farm

[arctic grove]

Use vehicles back

[fervent rose]

thats just proving my point

[arctic grove]

Nah just fucking with ya

I say BF4 strikes a better infantry to armor balance because Mackay and Sundance have too much mobility given to them alongside C5

[eager spire]

It takes some level of coordination and teamwork to deal with vehicles in BF4. It's something that most pub servers lack, which is why BF4 can be a farm-y game for vehicle players.

[arctic grove]

Virtually unpredictable

[mental delta]

It's the opposite with BF2042, impossible to play ground vehicles but air vehicles are cheated af

[twin finch]

Dice gotta add the Kolibri in BF2042

[uneven lodge]

bf5 massive maps are great because its vehicles that truly break through defenses

[royal swan]

Bfv was terrible at vehicle combat,
Bf1 vehicles were way too easy or too difficult

[arctic grove]

Sundance and Mackay mobility on their own is fine but I can’t stand the fact that they’re also given C5. I wouldn’t even care if Zain and Dozer had it

Because they can’t fly across the map to you

[uneven lodge]

the battlefield vibe is strong

planes however

[fervent rose]

ever since they removed attack helicopters from breakthrough they have been free farm

[uneven lodge]

too broken not enough AA options

[royal swan]

Planes are good on control skill, but they need to reward the user alot

Like alot

[uneven lodge]

u have the fliegerfaust that u need to hit both shots if not the plane goes straight vertical and heals

a ww2 plane should not be able to go straight vertical

[arctic grove]

phew man

[royal swan]

Jets should be weak and hard to aim, but have a lot of weapons at it's disposal

[uneven lodge]

it should stall and go into a flat spin

[arctic grove]

these balancing discussions

[pine roost]

I’m still surprised you actually get people talking in chat

[arctic grove]

I will join dice LA to make the tanks take 30 rockets but only if they’re fired at once to kill tanks

[royal swan]

Increase the damage on the jet minigun for soft targets

[pine roost]

It’s a ghost town for me, all the time

[royal swan]

Like two-three hits for a kill

Infantry

[pine roost]

Hitting infantry?

[royal swan]

Yeah,

[pine roost]

It already is a 3 shot kill

[royal swan]

Make it two shot then

[fervent rose]

if you abuse irish aps the tanks are an absolute gas in this game now

[royal swan]

It's almost impossible to pull off anyways

[arctic grove]

Yea I heard about that, I haven’t tried it myself yet

Idk why. It’s easy kills after all

[pine roost]

Alternatively if they adjust the drifting effect of its flight mechanics that’ll outright buff them

[fervent rose]

you can even play it fast, you dont have to be some hill camping clown

irish aps is busted

[fossil trench]

Pp 2000 the new meta?

[arctic grove]

True

[royal swan]

The fire rate on minigun should be buffed in general

They don't need to be this ass slow

[pine roost]

That way they won’t need to raise its damage value, but it’ll deal more consistently high damage and reward proper sim

[fossil trench]

How do people aim better on the minigun

[mental delta]

Stealth helis are the worst

[fossil trench]

Tips would be nice

[pine roost]

Less time spent aligning = more time to strafe = more damage in total

[royal swan]

Also give more rockets and bombs to jets

[fervent rose]

as a breakthrough player i do not miss that thing

[remote kiln]

what in the botfest

[pine roost]

Honestly I don’t think bombs would be a good idea

[fossil trench]

Extremely happy it was nerfed

[royal swan]

I should have 6-10 rocket at my disposal

[royal swan]

Then just rockets

6-10 rockets

Or 12

[pine roost]

Both would be overstepping the mark

[royal swan]

Mostly different

[fervent rose]

rocket jet spam in bfv was awful

pls no

[royal swan]

You can't have all of the same type

[fervent rose]

no bombs no insanely accurate rockets from the sky ceiling pls

[mental delta]

Yeah it's much more enjoyable now

[pine roost]

That concept is what makes all the other vehicles so imbalanced, and as yoyo said it was a problem that bfV already faced

[royal swan]

Give jets 2 tomahawks

[fossil trench]

The damn little bird is still very annoying

[fervent rose]

they are nowhere near the mark on balance in this game either, like having to just remove all air that isnt transports in BT lol

[fossil trench]

Idk when but dice made the lock on time so much longer

A while back

[pine roost]

Improve the physics, that’ll make anti tank, anti infantry and anti air more reliable and consistent. Then the jet acts as primarily anti air, with some decent anti tank potential but also some time for infantry

Vehicles need to specialise more and not be so good at literally everything

[fervent rose]

they did that too hard with the railgun tank

[royal swan]

2 anti tanks, 2 anti air, and a bunch of anti personal missiles that have big explosions

[mental delta]

I feel like they needed it too much tbh

[royal swan]

Also give the jet minigun splash damage

[fossil trench]

I kinda wish the railgun tank had more options for the gunner. Like a optional grenade launcher

AP abilities are so limited

[fervent rose]

i just hate how imbalanced tank vs tank is due to railgun maul existing

[royal swan]

Hell only giving the jet minigun splash damage can make the jets rewarding

[pine roost]

It would simply be a reflex fix that doesn’t address the main problem with the miniguns

[fossil trench]

The railgun tank is sooo unbalanced. It’s only good for one thing but at the same time it’s perfect for that one thing

[royal swan]

Bring back ricochet

[eager spire]

DICE are experts at reflex fixes that don't address main problems

[pine roost]

True

[royal swan]

And make it common for the railgun to ricochet

[waxen sonnet]

My game keeps starting in a reduced window, and expanding it to full screen causes issues where I have to reset the game. Any fix?

[fervent rose]

mine does that, i alt tab into it and it fullscreens

[fossil trench]

It’s a railgun tank, yes, but why not just break the rules to allow it to be intercepted by APS

[inner plume]

Hey guys

[fossil trench]

Makes APS literally useless going up against it

[inner plume]

Battlefield 2042 downloading rn gonna be trying it for the first time

[fervent rose]

yea railgun going through APS is wack

[pine roost]

Nice

[fervent rose]

it already does insane damage, the vehicle oh shit button should help you not die to it

[inner plume]

Heard the game had got improved lately so though why not

[pine roost]

It’s certainly improved in a lot of areas

[waxen sonnet]

@fervent rose thx. Dont know why i didnt try that, always went straight to restart.

It foxed it tho

Fixed

[fossil trench]

Railguns have significantly higher velocity so APS would never be fast enough to intercept it in time irl. But wtf is the point of equiping APS and removing repair if it’s completely useless against railgun tanks in the game

[fervent rose]

i know, but its "the future"

railgun maul is just broken

[sterile flint]

broken why?

[fossil trench]

Idk if I agree with that

Nothing is more damn stupid than getting shot with a jet without any warning

I just use the AT missiles and the 25mm for flying vehicles

Does just fine

I don’t really think every vehicle should be good for everything

[pine roost]

The 25s already have the ability to decimate infantry, an easy two kills per strafe at the very least as is. But a reduced drift and modified zeroing would potentially bring that to about 4 or 5

It rewards precision, which results in less infuriating moments as infantry when an entire group just dies instantly, it’s one target at a time

[fossil trench]

That’s definitely true

Same with the little bird minigun

[pine roost]

I mean, we already find it frustrating enough when a stealth bombs you, given all the other means of death that exists due to vehicle imbalance, adding more AOE anti-everything would only sour the overall experience

Case in point, as you brought it up, the nightbird rockets

It was like 3 kills every 2-3 rockets with that thing at launch

[fossil trench]

Lololol yeah I remember

Man that was so fun but ridiculous for the people dying

[pine roost]

Annoying for everyone, and not satisfying to use. A skill based weapon inherently changes the average effectiveness across the entire span of the population so it is perceived to be weaker

The weapons of the nightbird are in a pretty good state right now, if only it’s handling was decent

[fossil trench]

What platform do you play

[pine roost]

Pc

Play osu for yaw control training

No joke it actually helps

[fossil trench]

The heli handling thing is something I ALWAYS hear about but don’t experience

I play console

[pine roost]

Everyone who I’ve queried about it has said they experience it, I’ve watched sbout 4 separate discord streams where I watch them play live and it’s a thing on their end too. As far as I know it’s something everybody has and can’t turn off, but I don’t know about console cause you can’t stream console to discord

[fossil trench]

I feel like a lot of complaints come from the momentum mechanic in 2042

[pine roost]

Or the lack thereof

[fossil trench]

Wdym

[pine roost]

Ties into what I was saying about skill driven mechanics over simplified ones

[pine roost]

Well the flight mechanics are so forgiving that you can make a full 180 on a dime and avoid any crash while maintaining complete control

Compare that to bf4 where roll speeds were slow and cancelling out momentum took time, flight by itself was punishing and took practise.

[fossil trench]

Yeah see this is something I don’t understand. Because this is absolutely not what I experience

Like the little bird doing a 360 is a death sentence

[pine roost]

Which then has the effect of making them harder to hit with dumbfires, which makes them harder to take out as infantry, every minute change has a larger impact on so many other aspects

[fossil trench]

Because of the propulsion pushing the vehicle to the ground

[pine roost]

Gravity is a pain isn’t it

[fossil trench]

But now thinking of it, that’s actually really damn stupid lmfao

[pine roost]

But the effects of gravity in this game is so nonsensically low that you can tell it was designed that way to be easy to fly

[fossil trench]

Helis gain lift from pushing down on the ground. I don’t believe the air has enough to push a heli down

[pine roost]

But that’s not at all what bugs me about their movement. More control is good as long as it doesn’t make them impossible to hit. What bugs me, still is flight assist

I seriously believe it’s never going to be amended

[fossil trench]

I feel like I’m out of the loop there

Wtf does flight assist do?

[pine roost]

I’m keeping this name for years I can tell

Auto levels your heli when no inputs are being made

And when flying forward it levels you out to meet the horizon

And creates ground magnetism

[fossil trench]

Ooooh. See, I’ve seen that on the controls menu. Literally never used it

[pine roost]

Well guess what, I have it off too

But it’s still on even when you set it to off

[calm bison]

Makes no sense

[pine roost]

which is the issue

[fossil trench]

None of this makes sense lol

I feel like everything I experience contradicts what everyone else experiences

[pine roost]

I do not at all mind the concept of flight assist, sure make it more accessible. But it’s impacted default flight for so long now. It’s just a nuisance that makes aiming unnecessarily complicated and annoying

[pine roost]

Wouldn’t be surprised seeing how many unique bugs I’ve seen come and go through this discord

[fossil trench]

Flying feels very similar to BF4. Apart from the various different vehicle handling

[pine roost]

Heck my game seems to have a 1/4 chance of completely crashing my pc whenever I alt tab

Dunno about anyone else who has that issue

Can’t find any consistent way to reproduce it, sometimes it’s in the lobby, can be in game, during loading. Just whenever I alt tab it flashes orange on the task bar and I can’t click it or any other tab

[pine roost]

So on console then, do you not experience any auto levelling with it off?

[fossil trench]

I’m not sure what you mean by option? I was talking about it being on the screen when you’re flying around. Seems like a temporary toggle thing as long as you’re holding the button? Or something?

Like on the right side of the screen that shows things like the vtol option on the f35

[pine roost]

There’s a helicopter flight assist option in the settings, when it’s on that keybind on screen changes to ‘deactivate assist’ or something. But when it’s off it says the opposite. Basically holding the button does the inverse of what it’s currently set to

[fossil trench]

I have no clue lol

I’ve never paid any attention to it

[pine roost]

So if it’s set to off in settings, it shouldn’t roll without user input

And if it doesn’t, please give me your console as I can’t live with it anymore

[fossil trench]

I haven’t fiddled with any of the flying settings

So all are default

[pine roost]

What does the on screen keybind say for you?

[fossil trench]

I think it’s L3?

[pine roost]

What’s the actual text that says what it does

[fossil trench]

Flight assist L3

[pine roost]

Yeah so you have it off

Are you in game at the moment?

[fossil trench]

I’m jumping on right now. Let me see

[pine roost]

Try and boot up a solo portal match with no vehicle cool-downs, would be super helpful if you could test this out for me

[fossil trench]

No vehicle cool downs? Wdym

[pine roost]

disable the respawn timer in the editor I mean

I just find it useful when doing testing stuff

[fossil trench]

Okay so I was wrong. Apparently I might’ve changed settings? I don’t remember. But “Helicopter control assists” is on

Inverted controls is on

Sensitivity is 70

[pine roost]

Turn off control asssits for the minute

[fossil trench]

Okay

[pine roost]

Have you got a way of recording your screen?

[fossil trench]

No unfortunately. I can tell you what I’m experiencing though

[pine roost]

Right

It’s 2am here but it’s worth it for the science

[fossil trench]

In a solo match right now

[pine roost]

Basically all I need you to do is fly up fairly high, roll to the side by 90 degrees then let go of all inputs. In any heli but preferably the nightbird

[fossil trench]

Okay sure

Flight assist off. Let me see how it goes

[pine roost]

What should happen is it rolls to the side, and stays at that angle when you let go of movement keys

Or sticks, whatever

[fossil trench]

Yeah okay this is a bit weird

[pine roost]

Wassup

[fossil trench]

Flight assist off… it evens out when turned

Automatically

[pine roost]

Bingo

[fossil trench]

So wtf is this

[pine roost]

My thoughts exactly

See, im not crazy!

[fossil trench]

Yeah lol

[pine roost]

Glad to see it’s a thing on console too

[fossil trench]

Does the off option for flight assist just not exist or something?

I’m so confused

[pine roost]

My guess is that the percentage of people who have actually reported it is so low that they simply don’t know it’s a thing

[fossil trench]

Because it literally is assisting automatically

[pine roost]

All it does is reduce the effectiveness of the asssit. If you set it to off, then roll as you have just done, if you do the same thing again while holding the key you will see that it just turns quicker

[fossil trench]

Dude that’s crazy but pretty expected lmao

[pine roost]

Now try aiming straight down and holding collective increase while not touching any tilt controls

[wide shore]

What does this game consider a tactical weapon

[fossil trench]

Yeah again it just auto adjusts. I’ve never noticed how I have to manually compensate for it

[pine roost]

Can I make a bold assumption that you might have not touched helicopters since the beta or before season 1?

[fossil trench]

Like you have to fight the flight assist without it even on 💀

[pine roost]

It’s like having constant stick drift that you are just forced to counter

[fossil trench]

You’d be absolutely incorrect.

Played since beta, played bf since bc2

[pine roost]

Thought so. You said they felt like bf4 helis, which they did before the season 1 update

Which is when I changed my name to this

[fossil trench]

Maybe it’s just something I haven’t noticed?

I don’t even know

[pine roost]

Literally changing that one thing would make them feel so much more consistent and not nearly as annoying to fly

You can’t really pull off precise movements when it’s constantly flipping you, or aim precisely at a distance when it moves by itself

[wide shore]

Anyone?

[pine roost]

But it’s at its worst when you need to aim down. It does it’s absolute hardest to pitch up so you are constantly having to move your arm down

[fossil trench]

I think you’ve really opened my eyes here lol. Literally haven’t even noticed how I have been fighting the flight assist all this time

[pine roost]

A tactical weapon is the new name for the old ‘utility’ category

[wide shore]

Never mind I’m a fucking moron

[fossil trench]

New name for the utility weapons

[wide shore]

I didn’t realize they changed the name

[fossil trench]

Yeah lol

[wide shore]

Sorry. Thanks

[pine roost]

I imagine on console, If you don’t have a high enough sens then you simply won’t be able to aim with it as it counters it

What’s funny is that this exact same effect exists on the attack heli, transport helo and EVEN the jet in hover mode

[fossil trench]

Right stick is for aiming. So I’ve been using that overtime not only for aiming but also for fighting flight assist

[pine roost]

And the power at which the flight assist is determined by your angle to the ground and speed, so there is no consistency

It literally is stick drift that constantly changes its own direction and strength

Which nobody likes

The fix is simple, just make it so that off, turns it off. Keep flight assist as an option but actually make the setting does what it’s supposed to

[fossil trench]

Yeah absolutely

[pine roost]

So yeah, you understand my pain now

[fossil trench]

Absolutely

[pine roost]

I try to fly with it as is, it’s possible, but it just hinders your performance which is ridiculous seeing how long it’s been there now and not been addressed

Here’s hoping it gets fixed next season

But I’ve been saying that since day 1

Well, jets still don’t have the ability to roll or pitch while in rear view, and inverse pitch is still faster than regular, so ultimately vehicle bugs on aircraft specifically seem to have been left on the wayside

Now that weapons, specialists and classes have had their passes I’d hope that this next season has an emphasis on vehicle balance. I feel like that’s one of the lasting major issues the game has right now

Thanks for testing that out for me though, I appreciate it

[fossil trench]

I appreciate you showing me it. Opened my eyes. Can’t believe I haven’t noticed it

[wide shore]

I cannot stand exposure

This map is the absolute drizzling shits

[fossil trench]

Exposure is probably my second favorite map lol

[wide shore]

It is literally dead last for me

[fossil trench]

Just because of the CQC areas

[fossil trench]

Not hourglass? Lmao?

[wide shore]

Hourglass>Exposure

[fossil trench]

[wide shore]

I can get 30+ kill games on Hourglass. I cannot do that on exposure

It’s 99% hide and seek with snipers on the ridge above you. 1% decent gunfights

[hybrid totem]

Vehicles need room to maneuver man, hourglass is the tits

[fossil trench]

Oh you’re one of those players?

[wide shore]

Yes I like to get kills in the game where I shoot people

[pine roost]

Would you say most of this comes down to the newest breakthrough map layout

[wide shore]

I play conquest.

[pine roost]

Ah

Cause I saw people saying the new layout is rubbish, I’ve not actually gotten the map enough to tell

[wide shore]

It is, and has always been. Hot ass in conquest.

[hybrid totem]

Did they update the breakthrough layouts?

[wide shore]

Wanna trade? It’s the only fucking map I get

I wish I could just opt out of ever having to play it

[fossil trench]

You can get kills on every map lol. Dumb imo to rank maps based on how easy it is to kill players lol. Should be based on overall map design quality imo

[hybrid totem]

Those are the same thing to some players, no?

[fossil trench]

Sorry I meant overall quality*

[wide shore]

Good maps funnel you towards enemy players. That shit doesn’t happen on exposure. Every round on that map is either slow as shit, or a complete stalemate in the middle.

[fossil trench]

Like flow, variety, etc

[pine roost]

Well good map design should allow for a constant flow of combat.

[wide shore]

It’s not fun. It has all the exact same problems people flamed the base maps for.

Too big. Too open. No flow.

It’s all there. But somehow people like exposure

[fossil trench]

That’s literally hourglass lmfao

[wide shore]

I never said hourglass was a good map

I said I liked it more than exposure

[fossil trench]

Yeah and I just brought up hourglass because that’s undoubtedly the worst offender of the things you just mentioned lol

[hybrid totem]

It is not too big, what? It has elevations for sure

[pine roost]

My only main complaint with exposure is the ridge line and the various spots on the stone cliff face you can stand on

[hybrid totem]

Exposure and break away would both be so much better if you could gradually destroy the clifftops

[wide shore]

I think you missed my point. Exposure has the exact same problems as hourglass. But it’s like and hourglass isn’t.

Idk how

[wide shore]

The entire upper part of the map is pointless if you’re playing infantry.

It’s pure wide open spaces

And the lower sections are just forcing players to play hide and seek with snipers on the ridge

[fossil trench]

I guess that’s just your opinion vs mine then. I find exposure very enjoyable to play.

[wide shore]

It may be my least favorite BF map ever.

I’d rather play that shitty park map from the BF4 dragons teeth dlc

[slender isle]

It’s because the infantry is centralised. While on hourglass infantry is sparse

[wide shore]

I find more people to shoot on hourglass than I do on exposure

If you stay around the town and the arena there’s plenty of players there.

I just hate it. It’s not fun. And the game thinks that I love it because I’m forced to play it all the god damn time.

[slender isle]

Sorry, exposure has better infantry focused areas centralised than hourglass

Hourglass has the town which within 5mins has no cover

[hybrid totem]

I don't think that's how the game chooses maps.

[wide shore]

Great. I still think even with exposures infantry area, it still sucks.

[wide shore]

It feels targeted

[hybrid totem]

There are literally not enough maps for that to be the case

[eager spire]

maybe you keep getting into that map because people keep leaving it

[wide shore]

But the community likes exposure somehow

[eager spire]

the community can be wrong

they have been before

[wide shore]

I’m seemingly in the minority

[eager spire]

that is just unfortunate

[slender isle]

I personally don’t like hourglass due to its over centric vehicle focus. Lack of air cover doesn’t help. Exposure seems to be one of the only maps with proper air cover for infantry

[wide shore]

The round I played earlier I said in chat the map sucks and everyone just whined at me.

[eager spire]

there's not any good infantry maps in this game.

Hell, there's no infantry maps at all.

Not proper ones, anyway.

[wide shore]

Every vehicle on every map lmao

[slender isle]

We talking infantry focused maps right?

[eager spire]

I SAID INFANTRY MAPS.

[slender isle]

So metro?

Not even the next one is gonna be infantry only

[eager spire]

Locker, Metro, All of the BF3 Close Quarters DLC, the fort map from BF1 i can't remember the name of.

[wide shore]

Verdun, Fort De Vaux, Locker. Hell I’d even take a map that only has 1/2 tanks at this point like Seine Crossing or Amiens

[slender isle]

Infantry centric and focused yes, but not infantry only. Hopefully good though

[slender isle]

Like pearl market then

[acoustic seal]

send prise de tahure

[slender isle]

That had no tanks and I think 1 apc per team

[wide shore]

Sure.

[eager spire]

Still my point is that there are no infantry maps in this game.

[wide shore]

God man. Idk why people don’t vote for this map

It’s great

[eager spire]

and i think there should be.

At least a few.

[slender isle]

Yes. I think with 128p DICE designed each map to have areas for everything. Infantry play, vehicle play, air play. You get what I mean

I’m down for an infantry only map

[eager spire]

I think a lot of people wouldn't mind having infantry only maps in this game. Considering the infantry gameplay this game has.

[slender isle]

Best in the series imo. I think it would be good to get at least 1 infantry only map just because people who don’t like vehicles get that escape every once in a while

[arctic grove]

For sure

[eager spire]

i think there should be more than one.

Like, don't be like BF4 and just have only one infantry map in the base game.

That sucks.

[slender isle]

Hey, maybe this next one is like half the map underground with no vehicles access

That’d be fun

[eager spire]

I would like it if they didn't remake metro.

i'm gonna be straight up

just stop remaking metro.

[slender isle]

Give us that “terminal” map some guy designed. An infantry only airport map

[eager spire]

sure

[slender isle]

Would be in the vein of metro but like not in a metro station

[arctic grove]

i want a passendaele like map in bf20 42

also what about a map where yoy get to fight in caves

kinda like Iwo Jima

except 90% of the map is underground

[eager spire]

I donno if I want it to even be in the same vein as Metro.

DICE should stop making meat grinder infantry maps

They really should just stop that.

[slender isle]

Well pearl market is the only other not straight forward infantry map

[eager spire]

Then do that. Make actual maps that are not meatgrinders.

[hybrid totem]

If they make a 128 player infantry only map, it will very quickly face the same criticism as 128 player breakthrough

[eager spire]

which is?

[arctic grove]

I remember dices wording on 128 bt being removed was it caused performance issues and something else, I can’t remember

[uncut yarrow]

no players as of now?

hard to play

I mean can't start play

[hybrid totem]

Too much chaos, wasn't it?

[eager spire]

why are you asking me.

[hybrid totem]

I don't see them making any infantry maps geared towards 128 players

Because you could accomplish the same thing with 64 players and half the work

[eager spire]

then make 'em for 64 players.

[uncut yarrow]

10/64 LOBBY

[arctic grove]

What are you trying to matchmake into?

[uncut yarrow]

breakthrough

[arctic grove]

What’s your region?

Crossplay on too?

[uncut yarrow]

southeast

how to do that?

I see

[hybrid totem]

They have that, it's called team deathmatch

[uncut yarrow]

so crossplay should be enable?

[arctic grove]

Yes

[uncut yarrow]

it is disabled by default?

[arctic grove]

It shouldn’t be no

[uncut yarrow]

me and my friend always hard to matchmaking

[arctic grove]

Which continent?

[uncut yarrow]

always 2/64

asia

[arctic grove]

NA, Europe, etc

Ah

That’s why, it seems

[eager spire]

acting like cut down versions of 128 player maps count as infantry maps is an insult.

[slender isle]

Asia is dead

[uncut yarrow]

it always takes us 30 minutes to 1 hour to matchmake haha

AW

[hybrid totem]

Yeah, they've been pretty insulting to infantry only players for four seasons now

And yet they don't seem to take the hint...

[uncut yarrow]

so asia region not good for bf2042?

no players?

cross play is on

but still hard to matchmaking

4/64 in lobby

always like this since early morning

it is been 4 hours

[sour meadow]

what's the ASVAL called in 2042?

i forget

[topaz field]

bsv-m

[sour meadow]

that's it

thanks lol

[modest latch]

what platform are you on

[scenic blaze]

i want 128

[modest latch]

2042 just not good for console, without the crossplay, you cant even find a game.

[fossil trench]

Can you farm attachments and portal weapons on portal servers with bots

[edgy oriole]

solo you can get all attachments

for portal you have to make sure its full or half exp

[fossil trench]

Yeah I know about solo but I wanna try making a server that makes farming bots for attachments even easier

Like me vs 127 bots or something

[edgy oriole]

i dont use portal so i cant answer that but i wanna say its like solo, but you have to make sure its full or half exp. i dont think you can do what you just said tho

[fossil trench]

Well you get what I’m trying to do lol. Just make it as easy as possible to kill as many bots as possible

Hate this hipfire attachment requirement with a passion

Something like 100 hip fire kills for a laser on just one gun 💀

I get like probably 2 hipfire kills on real players in a good match

Maps mostly aren’t close quarters at all lol

[uncut yarrow]

PC

[hybrid totem]

The only smoke that breaks lock-ons is thermal smoke

[bitter skiff]

boin

[sour cedar]

Is there an "all" chat?

I only see squad and team

[bitter skiff]

in game, yes?

[sour cedar]

Yeah

Which key is it?

[bitter skiff]

no all chat unfortunately

[sour cedar]

Oh bruh that's dumb

[bitter skiff]

I know

[sour cedar]

That's just anti fun

[bitter skiff]

100%

[sour cedar]

Whose mother do I insult now

[hybrid totem]

I mean you can still insult their mothers

[oak slate]

does anyone know why my game kicks me it said this player was ejected from this game because easy anti cheat is violated battle feild 2042

[bitter skiff]

are you cheating? ...could be that.

[sour cedar]

Nah battlefield anti cheat messes up

Bf4 kicks me every time

For bf4 I just reinstalled the anti cheat

[bitter skiff]

boin = get out of jail

pay2boin

[sour cedar]

Whatever

Sounds like the same problem

[rocky kraken]

tank and irish is a broken combo

should be able to hack them

[acoustic seal]

irish has been overpowered since day 1

you can't give aps unlimited uptime and unlimited charges

[arctic grove]

That has nothing to do with 2042 anti cheat. 2042 uses easy anti cheat.

[sour cedar]

Right but it's the same problem

[arctic grove]

No its not

[sour cedar]

Reinstalling it fixes it probably

[arctic grove]

Punkbuster is just dogshit and reinstall never really fix it until you actually update it manually

[sour cedar]

The same problem being, windows probably did something with the anti cheat program

Windows messed with bf 4 for me

[arctic grove]

Just because bf4 had issues with punkbuster doesn't mean its same issue in 2042

Lmao

Literally everything is different

Its not the same

[sour cedar]

Nah brah I'm just saying he should reinstall

I mean it's the same problem as in it's probably on window's side

For my bf4 I didn't have a problem with punkbuster windows quite literally removed the program

Without me doing so

Could be the same here 🤷‍♂️

[arctic grove]

Windows doesn't remove easy anti cheat

If you run dogshit 3rd party anti virus it can happen

[sour cedar]

Maybe idk

Either way something's up with the way the program is running

Otherwise he wouldn't get kicked

Therefore it's the same problem: program not running

[arctic grove]

Or if you run weird apps in the background

[acoustic seal]

eac isn't punkbuster tier but it also has issues with randomly not working

i blame 2042

[sour cedar]

If that happens to me should I wait it out

Or reinstall

[arctic grove]

Never had problems with EAC personally in multiple games

I heard some weird apps can trigger false positive and not allow you to launch

So disable all the stuff you run in backround

You dont really need gaming apps

[mental cave]

EAC once banned me cus i had my afterburner open

just wanted to tune

[slender isle]

No. It was a thing at launch but DICE removed it due to xp farms

[jaunty fjord]

Why does the AK24 freeze when shooting?

Is this a nerf to the extended magazine?

[acoustic seal]

probably another symptom of buggy input, assuming there's nothing wrong with your mouse

[buoyant jackal]

Anyone know any good setups for the ak?

[rocky kraken]

mag

and sight

good

[jaunty fjord]

I use the controller to play, and I have never had this kind of lagging problem except for the ak gun.

[next onyx]

I think I know what you mean.

As in it'll skip a shot?

Like x x x - x x

[buoyant jackal]

Anyone know any food weapons to use

?

that are OP

[slender isle]

As of Tuesday the sfar will be amazing again. Next best is the pp29, lcmg, m16a3, M5A3, and the bsvm

[acoustic seal]

next patch is going to make the pp2000 compete with the scar which will be fun to watch

[final plume]

This happened to me as well and the only way to overcome it was to move and change the angle.

[buoyant jackal]

@slender isle thx

[fossil trench]

Why does it still work on solo servers then lol

[arctic grove]

yeah i remember it was issue in bf3 and 4 as well, doubt they do anything about it

if there is empty vehicle closer than the target you are aiming it starts always locking onto the empty vehicle

if it were really laser targeting that wouldn't happen

[rocky kraken]

lise do you main lis

[arctic grove]

also is it intended that javelin will not hit speeding bolte?

i wasted two missiles trying to kill bolte but both missed because it was speeding

irl javeling can hit speeding target no problem

[teal shard]

My guns are blurry

Is this supposed to happen

[arctic grove]

no

i play boris if i play engineer

lis don't have javelin

bust

and i dont like the stationary minigun

so i dont play the andrew tate cousin

the sentry gun dont do much often but at least i dont need to operate it

if i could it would be deadly

[rocky kraken]

in portal it happens idk why

[arctic grove]

i've always been engineer main in battlefield

[teal shard]

Yeah it was driving me nuts i thought my settings changed

[next onyx]

Fuck this stupid useless sprint out time.

[rocky kraken]

dont you love'

having a heli killstreak

and some railgun tank camping cross map

[chilly jacinth]

heli pilots deserves to get farmed

[acoustic seal]

[royal swan]

[arctic grove]

Doesn't look like it needs buff

[royal swan]

[chilly jacinth]
