battlefield-2042

[narrow saddle]

cant think of another game that had me hooked like bf4 did in that time absolutely perfect launch as all ea games do was awful but 4 months later we had diamonds

[solar obsidian]

players need to stop abandon games just because they are a couple of years old,

and expecting them to release the same thing with better graphics later

[narrow saddle]

and thats why i still play battlefront 2005 XD

[plucky chasm]

yea same the first 2 or 3 weeks i really liked it but the maps and the slow drip feeding was so fucking bad and the desync (guns not registering when you shoot someone was really bad on xbox idk about pc). Forge could be great now but its too late if it release when it come out we wouldve had some amazing maps and game modes by now!! I am glad their moving to unreal engine 5 for the next game but who knows halo seems dead in the water now and it serves as a warning. 2042 and bfv was dices 2 strikes a 3rd strike and EA might just pull the plug and get rid of the franchise which is scary to think about

or bad company 2

[fervent rose]

the desync of halo infinite

[solar obsidian]

just give us some fully path traced bf games

[plucky chasm]

yea sadly they took years to fix it as well so its kinda dead rn

[solar obsidian]

make the consoles suffer at 15 frames per second

[plucky chasm]

yes and no splitscreen at launch

[narrow saddle]

thats another game that i think deserves so much love is the newest battlefront game like holy graphics amazing runs beautiful but just was an absolute mess and not enough people came back

[plucky chasm]

battlefront 2 was pre amazing game ngl

once it got fixed

lol

[solar obsidian]

players already left when that happen

i like battlefront to some extend,

but some maps are just terrible designed

[fervent rose]

i would prefer battlefront with no heroes

[plucky chasm]

yea sadly dice need to get their 0shit together

[solar obsidian]

tunnel players into smaller chokepoints than i ever seen before

[plucky chasm]

idk i liked a lot of the maps

[narrow saddle]

pretty much take a look at idk every other halo game at launch

[plucky chasm]

the grenade spam was a issue

[solar obsidian]

same here, just some stages in the assault modes that amazingly poor designed to make games last longer

[plucky chasm]

it still has it lmao

[fervent rose]

having no "team slayer" in the matchmaking was wildly stupid

yea i know

halo infinite is a mess that makes 2042 look highly competent

[warm zealot]

Could the devs clarify if the changes to Dozer’s shield in 3.2.1 correctly applied to ziplines? The patch notes mention he can’t prone or parachute with his shield anymore but didn’t mention ziplines. As of right now Dozer can’t use his shield anymore on ziplines, which seems like a bit much

[solar obsidian]

poor ziplines*

[plucky chasm]

oh god then u had people defending no game modes

at least 2042 has some content

[fervent rose]

the main game mode of halo, since the beginning of the franchise

nah we dont need that as an option

[solar obsidian]

yeah you did not play bf2042 on launch

[plucky chasm]

yeah lol it was funny

yea i didnt

i play the horrible beta and didnt buy it

[narrow saddle]

very true desync wasnt bad on pc i played it on here and used mouse and keyboard and it was like crack br was amazing the warthog felt great the driving felt not super halo ce but just enough float to let you have fun while whipping it through the battlefield just once again dropped the ball woulda been the perfect halo game if they game half a shit

[solar obsidian]

remember battlefield was 60 euro for a multiplayer only game,

halo was zero for its complete multiplayer experience

[plucky chasm]

thats true 2042 was really bad on release considering only mp should be beyond amazing game

only one thing to focus on

[narrow saddle]

oh lord dont get me started on game modes i got banned from the offical halo dc bc of my bitching about the gamemodes that is a softspot for me holy the fact they release 4 "new" game modes for season 2 after 6 months and infection wasnt even one of them i lost my mind

[solar obsidian]

remember selling points as hazard zone got dropped by the devs not even a year after we paid 60 euro to play that

[plucky chasm]

ahh okay that does sound really good and yea the vehicle controls werent the best it was still fun plus yea the foundation was decent it just needed way more content it was released in beta stage lmao

[jovial jay]

Feel bad for paying full price for 2042 lol

The hype made me blind

[plucky chasm]

i remember that i dont know why hazard zone was even a thing

[narrow saddle]

very true and its the only thing that kept that multiplayer a float if it was pay woulda never gotten off the ground i stg

[solar obsidian]

whatever halo had to cancel never ever reach the lows 2042 had given us

[fervent rose]

2042 for 30 > halo infinite for free

[solar obsidian]

going from season 2 halo battlepasses where permanent

now compare that to all other games

[plucky chasm]

those arnt even halo fans their 343 fans bro those discords are crazy toxic they dont allow any criticism and say halo infinite is better then halo 3 which isnt true for me at least cus at least bungie releases content even if u hate destiny they got a ok live service going

[jovial jay]

Honestly I only play halo for the campaign, I own both infinite and MCC and played the multiplayer like 2hrs

2042 not having a campaign sucks

[narrow saddle]

idk man im with you but man halo dropped the ball like bf was bad like foundation was rotten but halo had good foundation everything was setup for it just devs couldnt be bothered to give halo fans anything but piss in a bucket

[plucky chasm]

thats one good feature they did

[fervent rose]

Does it though, I'd have to probably hear more Mackay talking

[solar obsidian]

hot take, all halo had amazingly poor melee netcode, and tradings where almost the norm in those games,

only reason its an issue now is because players suddenly have higher standards than that

[fervent rose]

no campaign ty

[plucky chasm]

idk man halo gfot pre bad

[narrow saddle]

yeah im very well aware of the fact everyone in that dc was a 343 payed actor

[solar obsidian]

i never paid for halo

i paid full price for battlefield

[plucky chasm]

idk i felt it was pre good in the older titles and player collision is hilarious and they get rid of it

yea but even if its free it shouldnt release bad

[fervent rose]

the melee trading was intentional, not a bug

as a safeguard for the actual weird melee netcode

[plucky chasm]

2042 live service is better then halo cmon

not trying to defend 2042 bnut

its better still

[fervent rose]

i remember when halo 2 didnt have the melee trading at all

[solar obsidian]

personally i dont even think it comes close anymore,

we gotten a few copied weapons from older games into portal mode,
portal never gotten any new maps

hazard zone was dropped

and we are salvaging one NEW map per season

[plucky chasm]

yea halo 1 2 3 on the original xboxs had good netcode from what i found might be wrong

[plucky chasm]

idk man halo had 6 month seasons and no content bro

long ass drip feeds

[solar obsidian]

same did we

[plucky chasm]

its finally getting footing again

really?

2042 was 6 month season damn

[solar obsidian]

halo got forge now,

there are no way 2042 is gonna compete against the player made remakes of older maps

[plucky chasm]

true but343 havent fix desync

[narrow saddle]

dont get me twisted bf2042 needs to pull a rabbit outta the hat to recover and they def aren't Houdini

[plucky chasm]

thats a big issue

[fervent rose]

but I don't want to play halo infinite enough to enjoy those maps

[plucky chasm]

halo mcc is better then infinite lmao

[fervent rose]

And I played thousands of matches of Halo2/3

[solar obsidian]

season 1 June 9 2022

[fervent rose]

i'm a halo enjoyer

[narrow saddle]

same

[jovial jay]

No one is going to defy this fact

[plucky chasm]

damnnnn i didnt know that

[jovial jay]

Mcc is damn good

[plucky chasm]

i guess i play the game at the right time then

[plucky chasm]

same and i loved bungie halo 343 is just mid asf

[fervent rose]

yep season 1 was the right time to start basically

[solar obsidian]

mcc started as one of the worst halo products on xbox when it launched

[plucky chasm]

idk man

[narrow saddle]

adore halo the world of it is literally starwars mixed with badass space marines its perfect but once again if the devs dont have passion or soul in the game it wont work bungie loved halo and what it stood for

[jovial jay]

Then we have 5 where things get weird, like the armor getting blobbier and even more randomly twisted than before

[plucky chasm]

mcc did take ages to fix but thats the 343 formula they take years to fix just like dice

[solar obsidian]

we got the game drip fed on pc after they fixed most of the bugs,

but even then, reach launched as the first game with audio not even being correct

[plucky chasm]

they spin around in their chairs and then go home

[solar obsidian]

took almost 2 years of fixing before the whole collection was in a very solid state

[plucky chasm]

thats true reach had bad audio mix or something thatr was hailrious man

[narrow saddle]

below mid literally scraping the barrel they could freelance a entire dev team and the freelance dev team would make a better halo game than if 343 had 40 years to develop one

[plucky chasm]

hilarious

[jovial jay]

Oh yea right now MCC is good, but I bought it at launch and reach was pretty much unenjoyable since the audio issue was super glaring

[narrow saddle]

there was more than just audio issues

[plucky chasm]

i think it was about 5 years actually if we count the xbox version

[solar obsidian]

i was just stating the xbox version at the beginning to give an idea how piss poor of a product that was

[plucky chasm]

i remember i bought it on xbox and matchmaking didnt work matchmaking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that was creazy

[narrow saddle]

that was hell we dont talk about that

[plucky chasm]

ohhh right right iget ya starfox

[plucky chasm]

roblox halo was better change my mind i could change colours on my spartan

[solar obsidian]

mcc battlepasses where free to keep for ALL players, even new ones going into the game now

i said many times that model is absurd value for how cheap that collection was on pc

[plucky chasm]

yes 343 battle pass is probs the best battlepass in games

[solar obsidian]

sadly took too long and hype was gone when game was fixed

[plucky chasm]

thats probs only good point i can give them

mcc bp is very nice

[narrow saddle]

LMAO I FORGOT THAT WAS EVEN AN ISSUE

another reason halo flopped

[warm zealot]

@viscid bone Hello! I saw in the patch notes that Dozer’s shield was changed to disallow prone/parachute states, but was it also intentional that he can no longer use it on ziplines? I couldn’t use his shield on any of the Exposure ziplines last night.

[narrow saddle]

if every bp system worked like mcc the world would be a better place and the fact that it isnt that hard just blows me away

[plucky chasm]

man oh man a free to play game having less players then mcc at one point too

[grim knot]

ty

[plucky chasm]

man i hate bring a halo and bf fan rn

these were my 2 fav games

growing up

[narrow saddle]

for real it is only paiin

but ay that new elden ring hit tho

im js after elden ring theres zero excuses

[fervent rose]

and if you're a fan of Hitman the new mode is dope

freelancer is such a cool use of all 3 game maps

[narrow saddle]

hitman is just absolutely popping

[solar obsidian]

elden ring is a technical mess on all platforms,

game is great but if it was dice releasing a game in that performance, everybody would trash it

[plucky chasm]

elden ring was really good but had bad poc port

pc

stutter when fighting boss

[solar obsidian]

was poor on all platforms

ALL

[plucky chasm]

really damn

[narrow saddle]

idk i literally barely ever had problems w that game

[plucky chasm]

it seemed good on ps5 man

[solar obsidian]

framerates where hitting so low on ps5, that variable refresh rate stopped working

[plucky chasm]

what digital foundry said

[solar obsidian]

because it was under 48 frames

digital foundry went through that

[solar obsidian]

im the person who have a twitter only to follow digital foundry and its crew

[narrow saddle]

it crashed a few times but i never had super bad issues with it

even with it modded it works pretty well but thats just my experience with it yours may have been hell idk

[fervent rose]

I love fromsoft but i dont expect bugfree experiences from them day1

[plucky chasm]

i did like how digital foundry called them out on the pc port

that was good

[solar obsidian]

it has shader stutters on ALL pcs every build

[fervent rose]

i will probably wait a few months to buy armored core6 even though i love armored core

[plucky chasm]

i had my game stutter really fucking bad

[fervent rose]

i expect bugs

[plucky chasm]

on pc one

does it still havethose issues zexten

yea their game good but their engine is a mess

[solar obsidian]

game is very poorly optimised for the just over average technical presentation it offer

[narrow saddle]

didnt notice maybe i had rosetinted glasses on again idk i never had issues stgg

[plucky chasm]

lucky then bro i had lots of issue

the directx12 implementation is so bad

yea the shader cache

[narrow saddle]

i mean at least it was finished

can we just give it that?XD

[solar obsidian]

same did i,

[fervent rose]

their technical engineering is definitely lacking but at least the game part is masterpiece quality

[plucky chasm]

thats true thats very low standard sadly

[narrow saddle]

it is but thats the game world now

[plucky chasm]

im not expecting any miracles by season 5 like jackfrags his shilling is so annoying

and levelcap

[narrow saddle]

man they get paid to say all that dont even take it into consideration

[plucky chasm]

sadly that is the game world rn and indies are looking better then ever

[solar obsidian]

lacking would be a understatement,
everything is just sub par,
whole game is build around that you can get invaded, yet the netcode are some of the worst i seen the last 15 years

this is not even a elden ring issue, all games have been terrible with its netcode

[narrow saddle]

plus hes playing on a prolly 6k pc that can run all battlefield games at full load and still get 60 fps so his take on 2042 has never meant anything

[fervent rose]

I agree, I turn off the multiplayer most of the time with those games

the netcode is too jank

still love them

still 10/10

[narrow saddle]

dk what you talkin about i got invaded like 5 times my entire playthrough and i molly wapped everyone of them on cooldown not the npc invasions either

[solar obsidian]

same do i, but damn im getting critical after 100+ hours in a game

[plucky chasm]

thats true levelcap has pissed me off since he shilled i miss his weapon reviews bf3 etc way more genuine its always when they grow a lot they lose their soul

[narrow saddle]

yeah its money baby makes the world go round

[plucky chasm]

thats true netcode is getting worse

yea money even tho their rich they want that sweet early access

[narrow saddle]

dont get me twisted tho the invading i didnt ever give a hoot about im just in it for cool looking bosses and melting them as fast as i can

[plucky chasm]

the invasions are so fun i love using my bleed bulid

[narrow saddle]

same reason i play destiny just to melt bosses

[fervent rose]

i enjoy hitting things with the claymore

i am a simple man

[plucky chasm]

destiny is pretty fun now and the raids were always the best things on it

[narrow saddle]

bleed builds are just literally the bread and butter of that game they give you way to many things to just make the game a steam roll w it and thats just another reason i love it they dont hold you back from being broken as all get out

[plucky chasm]

yea the bleed is so fun and some people say i didnyt beat the game properly so what i love bleed bulid

doesnt matter what bulid you do

[narrow saddle]

well yeah the raids are literally the entire game that and if youre a crucible dork but i could care less about getting stasis blasted every 6 seconds by a warlock across the map

[narrow saddle]

im sorry when theres people literally beating the game by casting spells and not even getting 5 feet within the boss who gives a rats ass how you beat it you beat it

[plucky chasm]

ikr its just those hardcore fans

its so annoying

play however u want

[narrow saddle]

and the amazing thing is you level that bad boy and just dump levels into strength and endurance and youll walk every boss

[solar obsidian]

meanwhile im the most basic shit, using the most basic shield and fast one hander to beat the games

[plucky chasm]

haha cruicible is so bad i just gotta do the pve content

[fervent rose]

shield builds are really fun in ER

[solar obsidian]

this was how i beat all souls games first time

[narrow saddle]

and yet its still fun aint that something its almost like games are more fun when there isnt a meta that everyone has in their mouth like a dick

[fervent rose]

I did love longsword + shield in ds3 too

[solar obsidian]

just look at the patch notes and you get an idea what meta thats been

[solar obsidian]

i did one handed axe, the starter weapon

[narrow saddle]

lord dont get me wrong it can be fun but when the other team literally has to change mice and keyboards every round bc of the sweat its just like why bruh it aint even for money

[narrow saddle]

yeah theres a meta but its not like everything else is just useless

[plucky chasm]

yea t heres literally no point plus dlcs like witch queen amazing tbh i just come back for campaign im that guy

witch queen impressed me a lot

[solar obsidian]

very few games have useless skills

[narrow saddle]

look at cod for half a second then wash your eyes and mouth with bleach but that game is what i mean cant use jack shit bc theres already a gun that has the highest firerate w no recoil and god damage and range

[solar obsidian]

i can use every weapon in cod

[fervent rose]

there are some funny examples of ones though, like the swimming thing in cyberpunk

[plucky chasm]

man cod cancer sbmm

sbmm is cancer i just cant

it isnt even fun anymore

[narrow saddle]

but i bet if you use a certain one its a whole hell of alot better than the rest and it aint by a small margin either

you cant sit here and look me dead in the face and tell me im wrong

[plucky chasm]

if they do sbmm if should be casual mode no sbmm and ranked sbmm

[solar obsidian]

all souls games had the same,

[narrow saddle]

never had to pay attention to it personally

[fervent rose]

you can beat souls games with soul level 1 and no weapon so it doesnt matter

[solar obsidian]

i can do decently well in cod with all weapons, simply by adapting my playstyle to its strength

[plucky chasm]

tbh everyone making out margit is hard mustve been noobs

[solar obsidian]

i never watch anything while im playing the game actively, when im done i start watching the speedruns for em for entertainment

[plucky chasm]

he was nothing compare to ds3

gael now that a hard boss

it was cool seeing more people getting into souls tho

[solar obsidian]

meanwhile he was like your average boss for me

[plucky chasm]

once it got mainstream

[narrow saddle]

same i just experiment and use what i think would be fun in souls games ive never been the type to go and watch build vids bc half of those bums are only building for invasion on some fufu lame shit

[plucky chasm]

damn must be pro then

[solar obsidian]

thunder boss in ds 3 have me more trouble

the tree boss was my first wall, holy shit some low iq plays i had against that thing

[plucky chasm]

what boss is that

[sharp coral]

Nameless King

[plucky chasm]

the thunder boss dude flying the massive bird

hes so cool

[solar obsidian]

like third boss, the tree thing with spores on it,

[plucky chasm]

ohhh yep the tree was my wall too

[sharp coral]

It's the Nameless King.

[solar obsidian]

the dual boss in the painted world dlc in ds3 was properly the hardest for me

[plucky chasm]

yea thats right nameless

[sharp coral]

Curse Rotted great wood is the tree.

[solar obsidian]

this

[sharp coral]

One of the games easiest bosses.

[solar obsidian]

i had so much trouble

no idea why

[sharp coral]

Use fire and hit the sacks

[solar obsidian]

https://tenor.com/view/axe-lotr-gif-5532799

[plucky chasm]

i used bow and arrow on the tree

[elder burrow]

hello in battlefield 2042 my mouse keeps looking down how can I solve it

[plucky chasm]

thats how i got him

[sharp coral]

Embed fail

[plucky chasm]

that was pre easy

[sharp coral]

If you suffer in curse rotted greatwood (optional boss btw) you have skill issue.

[plucky chasm]

lol

[solar obsidian]

against him i had

[plucky chasm]

true

[sharp coral]

Tough

[plucky chasm]

it is a skill issue

[solar obsidian]

i try to have the most simple playstyle dark souls 1 era

[plucky chasm]

if you cant beat gael skill issue too

[solar obsidian]

i use some firebombs here and there

[fervent rose]

that tree only has one genuine threat and you can easily avoid it

[sharp coral]

Simple =/= better

[solar obsidian]

barely uses buffs

never summon other players

never summon npc, except if its a quest

[fervent rose]

easiest boss in ds3 i thought

[solar obsidian]

spell caster

[fervent rose]

oh yea

[solar obsidian]

clone caster

[fervent rose]

you're right

[plucky chasm]

if u stress u die fast tho

[fervent rose]

2nd easiest

[sudden hornet]

Hello, i have the season pass but i cant set up my server as permanent, did u have any idea ?

[fervent rose]

theres a persistent servers option

in your menu

[plucky chasm]

so anyone got a feeling it the next bf fails EA is gonna destroy it

[fervent rose]

it isnt on by default

[plucky chasm]

and say thats it dice

[fervent rose]

No I think they will make a BF title forever like Madden

[solar obsidian]

i do wonder how elden ring runs on my 4090

[plucky chasm]

it prob run pre bad still

[solar obsidian]

actually think you are right

[plucky chasm]

i dont think they ever fully fixed it

[solar obsidian]

shader stutters will still be there

nope

[plucky chasm]

i saw a streamers elden ring crash

when they first start the game lmao

[sharp coral]

Lden rong

[plucky chasm]

idk man this game pre bad numbers for them they would keep getting losses

[solar obsidian]

when cyberpunk runs better with all raytracing on compared to elden ring

[still vault]

@sharp coral yeah, don't circumvent the rules of the server like that and please read #500058972234055710

[plucky chasm]

witcher 3 pc port bad

as well

[sharp coral]

Who just pinged me twice

[plucky chasm]

and their trying to fix it

[solar obsidian]

as i say before,

i have 2000+ games i can play, one shitty port will never break my mood when its free

[still vault]

I pinged you once, and read your DMs

[solar obsidian]

original witcher is still there

[sharp coral]

Yeah I read the rules. I get why the rule is there since its a partnered discord and all that. Gotta pander and shit. Not worried about it tho tbh.

[plucky chasm]

yea but if you want raytracing

[narrow saddle]

ik i didnt just get muted for sayin the r word imma scream

[sharp coral]

I had 2 notifications. Wdym read my dms.

[solar obsidian]

wait for it to get fixed

[sharp coral]

Happened to me earlier.

[solar obsidian]

or play other games

[plucky chasm]

im trying too

[narrow saddle]

makes me wanna rang it out again

[plucky chasm]

all new AAA game equals wait to get fixed nearly

its funny

creatively bankrupt

[sharp coral]

I mean it's just a discord. There's plenty of others. No real downside of getting banned tbh. Especially since it's partnered.

[solar obsidian]

doom games where almost perfect on launch

[plucky chasm]

true true doom was a while ago that was good back then

[solar obsidian]

eternal is from 2020

[narrow saddle]

yeah trust ik i sometimes speedrun bans like club penguin when im bored

[plucky chasm]

yea 3 years old nearly

[solar obsidian]

not that long time ago

[plucky chasm]

thats a while ago

[sharp coral]

Bro I can't post pics here but my network diagnostics here at home are trash rn

[narrow saddle]

damn i actually forgot about that masterpiece called doom eternal we just need more of that

[plucky chasm]

it was really impressive doom devs have t he best engine in gaming

[narrow saddle]

bless that game

[sharp coral]

I pay for 500mbps down and 30 up & I'm getting 3.45 down and .09 up.

[drowsy shuttle]

Remove ranger for the game, Dice. Ranger is for noobs that cant hit shit and need training wheels

[solar obsidian]

call them and complain

[next onyx]

If you enjoy eternal give ultra kill a play.

[sharp coral]

I did.

[solar obsidian]

ultra setting picture

[narrow saddle]

btw if you havent played metal hellsinger and like doom its a hella good game

bangin st

[plucky chasm]

i heard of ultra kill that sounds good

[sharp coral]

Packet loss 100%

[next onyx]

You can flip a coin, shoot it and it'll automatically hit someone's head.

[sharp coral]

My god

[solar obsidian]

did you see how the skin degrade on high mesh settings?

[narrow saddle]

played it v good just didnt get into it but very good

[still vault]

menu picture (on ultra), but still

[sudden hornet]

im blind i cant find it xD

[next onyx]

Hell, Fire a railgun at the tossed coin and it'll vaporise what it hits.

[plucky chasm]

Call them again

[narrow saddle]

how battlefront from like 5 years ago look better than that

[sharp coral]

Read your dms

[solar obsidian]

just sended you the skin on high mesh detail

[plucky chasm]

This look like a cartoon

PS3 graphics

[next onyx]

What about a rocket that has zero splash damage except when it hits someone.

You can send them flying into the air, hit them in mid air and cause a larger explosion.

[solar obsidian]

sound like your low res screen

[next onyx]

That's creativity.

[plucky chasm]

Naa it look cartooney as

[narrow saddle]

thats what i dont get why does bf2042 have the performance issues it does when battlefront 2019 look way better

[plucky chasm]

Must be the art style

[solar obsidian]

how about makay being able to use his hook like just cause

[sharp coral]

Bro it's verizon. They finna say "aight thats tough chief we ain't got no fix. Sucks to suck. Maybe walk your black ass back outside and touch grass".

[next onyx]

Different utilisation of resources.

[solar obsidian]

hit one target, then a jeep and drag him along

[next onyx]

This game is particularly taxing on the cpu.

[plucky chasm]

Their allowed to do that?

[narrow saddle]

lmao preach

[still vault]

Battlefront 1 and 2 from EA were graphical masterpieces imo. That endor undergrowth, eeeeeeek. Very few games even compare.

[fiery dawn]

I understand your point, but I seem to recall Dice telling us they’d bring in Portal “Vault” guns as a solution to the lack of weapons in the game, but that we’d have to wait longer for them because they would be doing re-balancing of the weapons for 2042 along with adding new attachments and stuff. So we patiently waited and when the time came, they didn’t do any of that. So while Vault weapons are supposed to be a quick fix, they still didn’t deliver on their promise, and they’ve been due for an overhaul since the beginning if you ask me.

[sharp coral]

No. They'll politely tell you to deal with it.

[still vault]

The new ice shader for 2042 is cool though

[next onyx]

I don't mind vault weapons infact at this point I'm more concerned how they're balanced.

[sharp coral]

Are they bad?

[narrow saddle]

SWEAR TO GODDDDDDDDDDDDD i cannot even tell you the giggles i had just looking around in the fighters cockpit like holy the detail just wow

[plucky chasm]

Wtf that's so werid if I complain here people come out technicans

[next onyx]

They're not bad no.

[narrow saddle]

add all bf4 weapons and ill be chillin

[plucky chasm]

Amazing games and clearly had passion

[stiff pollen]

Battlefront 1 and 2 had poly mapping using a drone over the real life locations

[plucky chasm]

Unlike 2042

[still vault]

The poor dudes hair 😦

[next onyx]

But I am more concerned with an over tuned gun or just one that's useless.

[fiery dawn]

Did they finally fix the ACW-R or is it still unchanged from when it was added?

[next onyx]

It's fire rate? No.

[still vault]

and extensive costs into photogrammetry

[next onyx]

It's still bad.

[fiery dawn]

And dispersion

[solar obsidian]

battlefront games in 3d ❤️

[next onyx]

I asked Alex about it so they're aware.

[plucky chasm]

Yea but they had Lucasfilm technology sure it was for free

[next onyx]

I'm just sending him pictures of birds.

[sharp coral]

They ain't sending no technicians out to my house without a scheduled appointment bruv. I'm on base lmao. They're not dealing with the gate guards lol.

[plucky chasm]

Ohh right right

[sharp coral]

What's the issue

[narrow saddle]

youre what i like to say up shit creek without a paddle

[solar obsidian]

yeah, its actually insane how much its being downgraded

[sharp coral]

How is 670 a bad fire rate?

[solar obsidian]

i was playing on high until i was told this

[sharp coral]

Yessir

[next onyx]

Acwr 720 rpm 5hk.

[plucky chasm]

Acw should be 800 rpm

[next onyx]

There are guns that kill in the same number of bullets yet have a faster fire rate.

[sharp coral]

679 720 whatever

Same shit

[plucky chasm]

I've noticed low medium high all look the same on 2042

[next onyx]

Different general ttks.

[solar obsidian]

its this time again i tell you to google black frame insertion

[narrow saddle]

acr should have 30 rounds why is it 27

[sharp coral]

@next onyx give me pic perms do I can show yall my network diagnostics

[plucky chasm]

Acr should be a meta gun

[sharp coral]

Isn't it 26? It's because it's the bf3 variant not the bf4.

[next onyx]

I know at the lower points the graphical rendering at certain points looks really bad.

Though the game generally does not scale well.

[narrow saddle]

yeah but plus one in chamber

[solar obsidian]

!regular

[next onyx]

Yeah it's the bf3 ACW-R which was a completely different gun.

820 rpm 5hk for engineer.

[plucky chasm]

We need the BF4 one for lore reasons

[next onyx]

5.56 ACWR. That'd be ok.

[narrow saddle]

we need just bf4 again for lore reasons

[sharp coral]

It's ttk didn't change based on what class you used it on.

[sharp coral]

I'd take a 60fps, graphic updated resale tbh.

[next onyx]

The acwr in bf3 was an engineer gun.

[sharp coral]

I know

[plucky chasm]

They should remake bc2 BF3 and BF4 in one package with brand new graphics

[narrow saddle]

also why does support class have a passive for smgs

[plucky chasm]

I thought engineer was lmgs

[sharp coral]

In bf3 I ran it with a x6 rifle scope, bipod, and heavy barrel. Lmfao. Surprisingly effective.

[narrow saddle]

so you want another mcc huh?

[sharp coral]

Engineer should be smgs and support should be lmgs.

[plucky chasm]

Hell yeah I do

[sharp coral]

They done fucked it up.

[solar obsidian]

@plucky chasmyou want a 300gb game ?

[plucky chasm]

Yea engineer is meant to be smgs

[next onyx]

Ah. The 5.56 ACR is the same one from bf3.

[plucky chasm]

It would only be about 100gb

[solar obsidian]

https://tenor.com/view/downsign-qr-code-brick-game-art-puzzle-gif-13617041

[plucky chasm]

Just like the whole game

[narrow saddle]

that plus trusting ea and dice to not absolutely drag our balls in broken glass in probably what would be the worst launch of video game history

[next onyx]

The bf3 acr I think is a Remington one?

[plucky chasm]

Even a BF3 remake only would be nice

[sharp coral]

[solar obsidian]

just play bf3?

[narrow saddle]

how about this guys a battlefield game that isnt broken

[plucky chasm]

BF3 has no servers

Active

[sharp coral]

The ACR is Remington by default. Other companies might have the rights to reproduce it in different ways but iirc Remington is the creator.

[plucky chasm]

And it should be remade I reckon to celebrate the franchise

[sharp coral]

@plucky chasm it does on console lmfao

[plucky chasm]

Really wtf @sharp coral

[solar obsidian]

lmfao. who is that hacker

[sharp coral]

They should just remake bf4 and add more bf3 maps since outside of maps bf4 is better in every way.

[next onyx]

Agh I knew it was Remington but I forgot about that part and wandered off to a different conclusion.

[plucky chasm]

Has anyone played battlebit remastered it's like 2042 but proper battlefield

[sharp coral]

What

[next onyx]

Eh.

[sharp coral]

Yes. Very few but people still play.

[next onyx]

Battlebit really isn't battlefield. It's more like squad.

[solar obsidian]

tey properly just playing venice unleashed

[plucky chasm]

Trueee and readd the blue tint I liked the blue tint

[solar obsidian]

those who stay back and play bf3 on pc

[next onyx]

More milsim than anything.

[plucky chasm]

Trueee they probs moved onto that but I don't liket hat game

[narrow saddle]

ay but anyone play ready or not tho that game got promise

[sharp coral]

Yeah but that blue tint wouldn't look good without the blue hud, especially with the bf4 maps.

[solar obsidian]

its a joke video about a negotiating scene, with some very old man not knowing what lmfao means

[sharp coral]

Shanghai and snow maps might look okay but the rest, nah.

[plucky chasm]

Ohh yep that's true

[solar obsidian]

he think its a asian

[sharp coral]

Guys

[plucky chasm]

No but I want too reminds me of swat 4 game

[plucky chasm]

I try that BF3 reality game I couldn't get into it

[narrow saddle]

its quite a fun game with friends just the solo ai that you get set with gets in the way most the time plus with how the ai enemies are its like tarkov scavs on meth

[plucky chasm]

Oooo

[solar obsidian]

https://youtu.be/nx9D-wSZn9s

[plucky chasm]

It's still in EA right

[narrow saddle]

nah ea wouldnt have the balls to be remotely related to them

[solar obsidian]

@sharp coralplayers left bf3 because modders have better solutions

[narrow saddle]

theyve gotten dropped by like four dif publishers bc they wanna make a school map lmao

[solar obsidian]

good luck being stuck on 30hz servers on console

[narrow saddle]

no shit

[sharp coral]

Players left bf3 because it's old and bf4 was better and people got bored

[sharp coral]

It's better than not being able to find games though lol

[solar obsidian]

there is games, but like tons of older games, they are usually enhanced by modding

[sharp coral]

Oh of course

[narrow saddle]

bc freelance devs are the best devs bc they give a hoot about what they are doing not doing it for a paycheck

[plucky chasm]

I meant early access and I heard about the school shooting map lol I wanna buy it cus it reminds me of swat 4 pc game looks like a spiritual successor

[sharp coral]

< 1mbps club

[plucky chasm]

BF3 map tho

BF3 map just insanely good

The BF3 dlcs

[solar obsidian]

night maps in bf3

[sharp coral]

Bf3 maps were peak

[plucky chasm]

Really damn

[narrow saddle]

oh yeah its early access its def not perfect but the devs seem pretty passionate about it and encourage the mod community to do what they wanna do if you wanna get it itd just keep it on the radar and wait for a sale they do them pretty regularly when they release a big update

[plucky chasm]

Those night maps were Soo fun

[sharp coral]

Mad I never got to play seinne crossing on bf4 tbh

[plucky chasm]

2042 needs a night map

[solar obsidian]

seine crossing night map

[sharp coral]

Also mad console never got the night maps on bf4 outside of graveyard shift

[solar obsidian]

god i love modders

shoutout to the mad lad who path trace our old school shooters

[arctic grove]

bandar desert night

[sharp coral]

Night golmund and Shanghai were awesome

[arctic grove]

fun bot?

[plucky chasm]

I wanna do the school shooting mission that shit sounds horrifying and you gotta storm in as swat if it's realistic too

It sounds really realistic

[wise zodiac]

Depends on what base, tbh. As long as you ain't at Hood. 😐😐

[plucky chasm]

Ok I worded that bad I wanna try that map cus it seems scary and if I can save people in that mission

[sharp coral]

They don't like Beale

[solar obsidian]

https://youtu.be/DYziPapZWDw this fellar

[arctic grove]

nice

[solar obsidian]

updated textures to work with path tracing

[narrow saddle]

if they do it anything like the nightclub map itll be atmospheric as all get out if you havent already highly suggest taking a look at the nightclub mission they did bc the phones ringing and stuff just makes your skin crawl

[plucky chasm]

Idk what it would be like but if that game has scenarios with realism in it to see how scary it would be for the swat members etc

[solar obsidian]

doom, serious sam, quake,

[plucky chasm]

I love serious sam

Bruh, you can just fix it yourself! 🤣

[sharp coral]

You fucking know it

[plucky chasm]

Okay sure I will I might wait until it gets fully released

[sharp coral]

I told ya

Obligatory I'm only 8 miles away from Marysville.

[plucky chasm]

Swat 4 had a mission were you had to save people from a serial killer fuck it was scary

Fucked up shit in the house

[solar obsidian]

@plucky chasmswat 4 is being tested with the rtx remix files portal rtx are using

[plucky chasm]

Had good atmosphere just like ready or jot

[wise zodiac]

Yeah but you're an hour outside of Sacramento

[plucky chasm]

Oooo really do I need NVIDIA for that

[solar obsidian]

only need ray traced capable gpu

[sharp coral]

I'm getting transferred though finally. So hopefully the next place will be better 🙏

[narrow saddle]

can you still get swat 4 or is it one of those games that is lost to time

[solar obsidian]

nothing is lost to time

[plucky chasm]

So amd can do it

[plucky chasm]

Ohhh okay well that's cool we getting old games back with better graphics

[sharp coral]

[wise zodiac]

Make sure they give you the good chocolates on your pillow.

[narrow saddle]

well yeah but i aint tryin to go to my local goodwill to try and source a way of playing and or have to download a sketchy exe file

[plucky chasm]

It's on steam isn't it

[solar obsidian]

i just linked a place to buy it

https://www.gog.com/en/game/swat_4_gold_edition

I'm getting transferred to Ellsworth so I'll ask for a foot rub to.

[solar obsidian]

no idea

[wise zodiac]

There ya go! Use the system.

[solar obsidian]

are links hidden? nvm* 😄

[narrow saddle]

literally just found it lmao

[sharp coral]

The system will play dirty so we should to 🤣. I'll threaten to leave 1 star reviews of the bases.

If I don't get what I want

[solar obsidian]

i just hit 1800 games on steam

[plucky chasm]

Holy

[narrow saddle]

did you get the touch grass trophy too? (just a joke)

[solar obsidian]

no but the fussy dusty feeling at the bottom of my case can do

[plucky chasm]

Bad company 3 let's gooo

[sharp coral]

So are you a "government lapdop" as well?

[jaunty parcel]

good luck with that

[wise zodiac]

Make sure you complain about the continental breakfast too.

I used to be their bullet sponge 12 years ago.

[plucky chasm]

[jaunty parcel]

lmao

[fervent rose]

nah they are busy making some star wars game

[plucky chasm]

Hahaha really I have more faith in respawn now

[jaunty parcel]

Dice sucks

[fervent rose]

they arent making a star wars fps and the next battlefield too

[wise zodiac]

In the Army as a grunt, so I'm not sure which one that qualifies into. 🤣

[plucky chasm]

Is dice in this server

[fervent rose]

ye

[plucky chasm]

Hahhaha

Lol

[jaunty parcel]

probs, it's not like it's a secret

[sharp coral]

Knuckle dragger according to the nerds.

[fervent rose]

a few of them chat here

[plucky chasm]

Titanfall 2 is legendary dice make game like that

Dice needs too

Really that's cool what do they talk about

[fervent rose]

its very minimal

[wise zodiac]

I mean, I like to call myself a sophisticated & intellectual instrument of precise and violent action. 🤣

[fervent rose]

the weapon guy likes to lurk and react to comments

[sharp coral]

I'm 3POX1 so I'm essentially just a grunt also. They're gonna send me to some schooling and training after I get situated. Gonna do something that's involved with specific underground complexes...

[plucky chasm]

Do they admit they fucked up

[sharp coral]

That's one eloquent way of putting it lol

[plucky chasm]

I would like to see that

[sharp coral]

My old man was a devildog. I say was because 04-08 beat the fight out of him.

[wise zodiac]

Surge was no joke.

[sharp coral]

Told me I should do whatever I want except for that.

[solar obsidian]

im a patient gamer who like collecting games, and primarily use my money on hardware

[sharp coral]

Avoid sand and goats he said.

[spiral folio]

There was this one infantry guy i worked with as their mechanic. I went to get some tools i was missing and lwft the fuel pump there. By the time I got back. He had installed the fuel pump correctly without most of the tools.

I'm like "why are you infantry if you're that good with repairs"
He goes "i like to stab things"

[sharp coral]

Checks out

Tbh

My buddy went to school in utah to be a diesel mechanic and he then joined the navy and became a seebee because explosives and machine guns are fun.

[sharp coral]

Were you there for the invasion and/or the couple following years?

[wise zodiac]

Nah. 2011, the withdrawal. One of the last combat units in Iraq.

[sharp coral]

OIF10?

[wise zodiac]

Squad leader was in and around Sadr during the surge.

[wise zodiac]

New Dawn.

[sharp coral]

Ah ok

Was Al Fadil easy?

[wise zodiac]

Saw my far share of shit though. Still got shot at, blown up, etc.

[sharp coral]

He deleted his message lol

[sharp coral]

Damn. You see I wanted to avoid that so I went grunt for the af instead.

https://tenor.com/view/modern-problems-chapelle-modern-solutions-gif-15497728

[wise zodiac]

I wanted Afghanistan, tbh. Got Iraq instead.

Lots of friends died in Afghanistan. =[

[sharp coral]

My father did time in both. He can't make up his mind which was worse. Says they were both awful in different ways.

I got a question for you gents that got deployed out of country

Fair enough

[wise zodiac]

? Who you asking? Cause I never said i was in the surge. I said my SL was.

[wise zodiac]

I didn't do it. It wasn't me.

[sharp coral]

Was gonna ask what it's like to be deployed out of the US into a combat theatre. Stress, accommodations, etc. I probably will never get that experience and perspective so my only knowledge comes from others.

[spiral folio]

My units were either a GRF unit so we didnt deploy "JUST IN CASE the BIG one COMES"

Or a wildly incompetent BSB

So I guess im glad i didnt deploy. If i deployed with thst bsb I'd probably be dead from like a truck breaking down and falling on me

[sharp coral]

I get some people don't gaf about answering questions but my dad doesn't say much and I enjoy learning and understanding things better.

[wise zodiac]

I had my own room. Shared shower trailers though. We were attached to a sister tanks company in our BN, and we were hours away from any FOB.. a little Company outpost with attached mechanics & cooks.

Had hot fresh cooked meals every day.

[sharp coral]

It sounds roomy

[spiral folio]

It's a bad subject for some people.

I know i cant stop complaining so i avoid talking about it. Others have their reasons. My grandpa never talked about his time in the air corps

[wise zodiac]

It was fucking hot.

Lol

[sharp coral]

Yeah I understand that. It's just hard to empathize without the perspective/experience or without someone teaching you. Gotta just ask sometimes.

Wasn't the air corps the USAF before it became a formal branch or was it the civilian side of it?

[wise zodiac]

Army Air Corps.

Was the air force before the air force

[sharp coral]

Ah ok

I was half right

Which is the best kind of right

[wise zodiac]

Front leaning rest position, move.

In cadence!

Exercise!

[spiral folio]

I shuda joined the airforce. Lived the easy life

Icecream every day

[sharp coral]

Some af posting suck ass

I had 1 posting that felt like polk

shudders

[wise zodiac]

Polk wasn't TERRIBLE.

But it wasn't GOOD either

[sharp coral]

Polk is a God damn armpit

[spiral folio]

I barely left post anyway at ft lewis. The areas around lewis are crime riddled or expensive or both

[sharp coral]

I have a ranger buddy up at lewis

[wise zodiac]

JRTC, for a month. Had a nice PX down the street from the box. 🤣

[spiral folio]

I went to Seattle twice and it was very ok

[sharp coral]

I heard Lewis is nice

[wise zodiac]

As long as it isn't Ft. Hood.

[sharp coral]

Hood is Texas right

[wise zodiac]

Hood is literal death

Yeah

[sharp coral]

By houston

[wise zodiac]

No

Austin

[spiral folio]

Rangers probably like ft lewis cause they think differently than people

[sharp coral]

Biggest base right?

[wise zodiac]

Yeah.

[spiral folio]

I was in old-post where all the crap buildings are

[sharp coral]

Rangers eat the damn erasers for chalk boards

[wise zodiac]

It's 2 hours from Dallas, 2 hours from San Antonio

[sharp coral]

Rangers are like gorillas with the aggression and loathing of chuahuahuas.

[spiral folio]

Yea rangers make beds out of pinecones and sticks and eat bugs. So they'll loke ft lewis

If you like mud and cold. Ft lewis is for you

If you like gray skies.

[calm bison]

Guys

[sharp coral]

My ranger buddy told me a funny story

[calm bison]

Guys I have important news

They put Master Chief in Sea of Thieves

[wise zodiac]

Yeah, that's normal leg infantry for ya

[sharp coral]

Had a guy in his unit who bragged about being a eagle scout. Their TL made the dude make a nest out of pinecones and twigs and squat over an egg for 6 and a half hours.

[wise zodiac]

Sounds about right

[sharp coral]

Apparently rangers enjoy doing bear crawls up stairs backwards.

Which definitely doesn't sound awful.

[wise zodiac]

Crab walks.

Those are fun

[sharp coral]

Is that what it's called?

[spiral folio]

Eagle scout meant more a while ago than it does now

[sharp coral]

Mfers basically in a pushup hold position but they crawling backwards.

What's that position called

Apparently they also got a term called "doing a dead cochroach". No idea what it means and noone will explain it to me.

[wise zodiac]

https://tenor.com/view/scary-walking-backwards-spider-crab-gif-12626171

That's a crab walk. Got smoked with that before

[sharp coral]

Jesus

[wise zodiac]

But it was a fun smoke session

[sharp coral]

Never had to do that

I'm not that flexible

[wise zodiac]

Every step we shouted, "clank clank I'm a tank, boom!" and alternated kicking our leg out to simulate the tank firing.

[sharp coral]

Lmao

[wise zodiac]

Yeah, it was fun as shit

Couldn't do it now, though. Too old. My knees, back, and shoulders wouldn't agree.

[sharp coral]

Heard a story about a dude once who has to wear a bedsheet and go around saying "OOOOOOOOOOH IM A SPOOKY GHOST...BOO!" To people as a punishment for something dumb.

I wanna know what he did wrong

[wise zodiac]

Had that happen in basic. Lmfao. Guy fell asleep on fire guard. We got woken up cause we all "died" since he fell asleep, and we all did that shit to him.

[sharp coral]

Rough

[wise zodiac]

We had some cool drills lmfao

[sharp coral]

Yall all got smoked huh

[wise zodiac]

Yep.

Infantry be like that

[sharp coral]

We had a guy fall asleep as well. Still don't think it was cool to smoke us at 2am in 40 degree weather.

I never agreed with the group punishment thing but whatev.

1 dude got us smoked because he snuck his fucking switch in.

[wise zodiac]

Group punishment to make you all accountable for everyone, then it phased into squad, then fire team, then bunk mate, then solo

[sharp coral]

I'm just not a fan of punishing somebody for something outside their control.

Obviously you don't open your mouth at the time but it just irks me.

[spiral folio]

Its meant to force units to work together

[sharp coral]

I know

[spiral folio]

Cause like if somebody's shining their flashlight around and being an idiot. The punishment that comes is getting everyone mortar striked

[sharp coral]

But mfer I have no control if somebody wants to be a individual and fall asleep at 2am on firewatch when I'm unconscious.

[spiral folio]

Or more recently a whole barracks of russian soldiers were punished by missile fire because they kept telling the internet where they were

[sharp coral]

Oh yeah

You're talking about the guy who posted a video on tiktok right

3 hours later got hit by artillery

[wise zodiac]

Geolocation is a bitch

🤣🤣

[sharp coral]

He survived and posted another video bragging

Got hit again

[spiral folio]

So like having soldiers police each other can be a good thing

[sharp coral]

The 2nd round of artillery is what I found to be funny

Dude lives through the 1st round that decimated the base

He then opens his mouth to talk shit and gets hit again

[drowsy shuttle]

M16 absolutely slaps. And its a damn beam

[sharp coral]

What's it's firemodes?

[drowsy shuttle]

If the mag was 40 bullets would be OP

[drowsy shuttle]

Full auto, semi auto and single

[spiral folio]

The m16s general failing is its range damage

So even if you belt-fed it. Itd still have that flaw

See also avancys

[sharp coral]

Single isn't used in BF2042 afaik.

[drowsy shuttle]

I dont notice.. i've been killing snipers quite easily... the accuracy its insane

[spiral folio]

Youll kill snipers better with the ac42

[sharp coral]

There's semi, burst, and full outside of the pump, lever/bolt actions, and crossbows.

[spiral folio]

Beefier round

[drowsy shuttle]

Sorry but im playing right now, with m16 and i just cycle to the 3 fire modes.. full, burst and single

[sharp coral]

Semi not single.

[spiral folio]

Same thing

[sharp coral]

No it's not

[drowsy shuttle]

Its single.. not bolt action -.-

[sharp coral]

Semi auto is not the same thing as single action.

[spiral folio]

People call it single fire

[sharp coral]

People are dumb

[arctic grove]

I don't understand why they have hard coded limits for bullets to kill at a certain distance

[spiral folio]

Thats not what he said

[drowsy shuttle]

Dont complicate lol

[arctic grove]

why wouldn't they make it decay

[spiral folio]

He said single not single shot

[sharp coral]

Clips =/= magazines also

[spiral folio]

Army says single fire and burst fire too

[sharp coral]

Yeah single is short for single action.

[arctic grove]

39 meters? one hit body shot
40 meters? two hit

[spiral folio]

No

[sharp coral]

Army also requires a minimum of 16 on the asvab rofl

[spiral folio]

Theres definitely a difference between saying
"Thats a single fire rifle"
And
"Set your fire selectoe to single fire"

[arctic grove]

as an outsider who was not military I think it's entirely context dependent

[spiral folio]

Id take the armys word on rifles before the airforces based on range time

[sharp coral]

Yes but when someone says single as a firemode outside of that specific context it always means single action.

[wise zodiac]

Hi guys. It says "semi" on the selector switch.

[spiral folio]

Though it probably takes the airforce longer to get the guns ready for the range to scrape all the rust off

[sharp coral]

I mean those guys aren't soldiers but they can read a book.

[spiral folio]

I missed a couple questions on the asvab i think. Maybe 1 cause a brainfart

Airforce wanted a 12month wait to go to basic

Army was 4 months

[sharp coral]

Had a buddy in high-school get a 78 and went infantry in the army.

[sharp coral]

My brother waited for 2 years to get his ideal rate I'm the navy.

Dudes smart af

[wise zodiac]

<-- from an actual bullet sponge that used the platform.

It reads "burst (or auto)/semi/safe"

[spiral folio]

I got a 98 but I needed a job

[sharp coral]

Jesus christ

Bro got a 96

[spiral folio]

The rifle does have semi on it but ive definitely heard single fire from even drill sgts

[sharp coral]

I peaked at 86 after studying my ass off.

[spiral folio]

My goal was go officer but
Drawdowns and a sequestering

Too old

[wise zodiac]

We always said "semi", but used the term "single" when told to fire one round at a time.

[dapper river]

Just thought I'd wrap it up neatly

[eager spire]

but i guess i'm built differently i suppose

[arctic grove]

anyhow

wen m98b

[eager spire]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[arctic grove]

wen grand bazaar

[eager spire]

lol.

[spiral folio]

For those large women

Or wait bazaar

[crimson spade]

there's more productive stuff to do

[sharp coral]

No way there'd be vets in a battlefield server

[spiral folio]

Nevermind

[arctic grove]

Also for the love of god they need to change how the spawn works on Arica harbor whenever its in queue. The first objective is and has always been a massive cluster fuck. Running for a minute just to get taken out by a tank was never fun

[sharp coral]

You know your ping is bad when you shoot your tank cannon 5 times in 3 seconds.

[arctic grove]

after A it's one of the best and most memorable maps to play.

[eager spire]

oh yeah i'm sure there would be. But there are also more productive things to do than to be pissy about things on a discord server.

you're kind of tossing stones from a glass house here, buddy.

[sharp coral]

I'll be pissy about not being allowed to say the word weetawded

[fervent rose]

logging into discord to tell other people on discord that they should not be on discord

[sharp coral]

Willingly

[eager spire]

i donno cry about it i guess

[fervent rose]

its a funny moment

[sharp coral]

I will

[spiral folio]

I got this one kid going on BF1 who was badly lying about his military service.

I mentioned the best place to be deployed is MEPS and he goes "oh yeeeah i was deployed there twice for over a year"

I said
"Weird it only took me 6 hours"
And a bunch of other vets lurking the battle chat started laughing at him

[dapper river]

I'm shitposting on discord and getting paid while I do it! Ha Ha!

[hybrid totem]

be pissy, but stop dodging langauge filters

[crimson spade]

i was just messing around bro and besides the game is a lost cause anyways

[sharp coral]

That's hilarious

[eager spire]

okay

[sharp coral]

Idk cry about it bro

[hybrid totem]

Not enough that your posts keep getting deleted I guess

[crimson spade]

so there's better stuff to do rather than talking about a dying games future

[sharp coral]

Had a young dude in a milsim clan on bf4 claim to behave been a corpman. Didn't know the difference between blueside and greenside when asked about his service.

[spiral folio]

The R word was my DSs favorite word

[eager spire]

Speaking of this game, it's crazy that they couldn't even revert something properly. Extended mags are still nerfed despite the apparent reversion.

[eager spire]

okay

[next onyx]

Hello.

[dapper river]

I'm imagining that and I'm having a giggle

[arctic grove]

How hard is it to push a patch.

[eager spire]

hi.

[arctic grove]

It's incredible.

"ah shit, we gotta remove extended mag ads nerf. Give us 45 minutes"

Aren't there like 600 people at dice?

[spiral folio]

I cant repeat the stuff he said here. But he yelled all the time like a pro wrestler

[eager spire]

"We forgot to revert the extended mag nerf guys, sorry"

[fervent rose]

597 on the next game if so

[spiral folio]

Cause that's the character DSs put on kinda

[eager spire]

"Also the M39 oneshotting people to the head is intentional stop saying it's a bug"

[arctic grove]

Should realistically take them 15-20 minutes to change the code

[next onyx]

@crimson spade That's enough out of you. Continue with the rudeness and you'll be dealt with.

I know they have to verify patches.

[crimson spade]

what did i do

my english isn't that good

[next onyx]

Name calling and getting a rise out of other users.

[eager spire]

I assume that means verify that they do something, and not verify that they actually do what they say they're doing

[crimson spade]

how is npc that offensive

[eager spire]

because if that's the case then this patch shouldn't have been released.

[crimson spade]

to actually be taken as an insult

[spiral folio]

Yea the devs can't really playtest patches to see how it changes the balance of the game unfortunately

[eager spire]

you're being disingenuous. you know what you're doing, you're just playing stupid because a mod's noticed.

[drowsy shuttle]

I can do that... for a price. Hit me up, Dice.

[spiral folio]

Can you be 64 people?

[crimson spade]

idk what that means, english isnt my first language

[drowsy shuttle]

I can clone myself yes

[spiral folio]

See that's the issue is playtests require multiple teams of 64 different people so clones wont work

[eager spire]

I mean i donno, i don't think it requires 64 people to be like "hey, the extended mag nerf didn't get reverted"

[arctic grove]

I just feel like the whole process would look like this:

yo team we need to revert extended mag ads nerf and do something to the m39. For now decrease the 1 hit head shot to 25 meters from 40 and we can call it. @ the dev team, think you can do this in an hour?
in an hour and a half I need 20 people on xbox, 20 on pc, and 20 on ps5 to check and make sure this works. We'll play a game of conquest, report results
patched by EOD

[eager spire]

or "The PP2000's damage range didn't get buffed as much as it says on the patch notes for some reason?"

or "did you really buff the MTAR?"

[drowsy shuttle]

It took them months to fix sundance grenades so.... i dunno fellas...

[dapper river]

this is what I see when I see your damn profile pic

[arctic grove]

thank you, I appreciate it.

[next onyx]

Bird.

[eager spire]

that is one of the birds of all time

[radiant prism]

bird

[arctic grove]

battlebird

[spiral folio]

It can be as simple as
"Everyone get their patch changes to the server before work close today so we can get the patch out"
-drags patch file-
-clocks out and leaves-

Gets there next day
"Shit i copied the wrong file for the mag balance"

[next onyx]

There was the big weapon stealth buff so it was obviously changed at the last second.

[drowsy shuttle]

<- this to me looks like a pig.. specially on mobile

Cant unseen now

[next onyx]

Not excusing their actions for this one but it does happen.

[eager spire]

maybe they shouldn't have done this shit last minute

[fervent rose]

we are the testers

unfort

[eager spire]

this is a massive company making a lot of money

[wise zodiac]

Whyd you have to say that.. now I can't unsee it.

[next onyx]

Eh I'm done constantly being on dice's ass.

[spiral folio]

Theres a phrase
"Dont blame on malice what can be explained with ignorance/accident "

[eager spire]

well i'm not

[drowsy shuttle]

Sorry not sorry 🤪

[eager spire]

i'm well aware it's probably ignorance, but still, we're talking about a massive company here

[dapper river]

Oh wait did they not revert the ADS for drum mags? I never noticed because I hadn't bothered to put drum mags back on weapons that I originally used them with, whoops lol

[next onyx]

There's no use complaining about the same thing over and over because the same thing will always happen.

[fervent rose]

yes to drums, extended no

[arctic grove]

gee if only they opened a public beta environment and recruited the users on this discord to test it

wowee

[next onyx]

Drum mags have been reverted.

[eager spire]

if an indie dev did this shit people would tear them apart, but when DICE does it, they're fine?

[spiral folio]

Ive had plenty of wupses at work where i uploaded the wrong file.

[next onyx]

They're not fine though. We're doing it right now and they're aware.

[arctic grove]

We keep parroting it in hopes the devs log on and catch the chatter and fix it

[eager spire]

they reverted it for drum mags, but not extended mags.

[spiral folio]

Like "hey this title block i said to change"
-checks-
What the... ok ill fix it

[dapper river]

It would be funny if they came out and said "you guys were only complaining about drum mags, you never said anything about extended mags!"

[arctic grove]

Battlefield is a franchise that's near and dear to my heart, as I'm sure it is with a lot of y'all. Just hoping they have responsiveness.

[spiral folio]

Gonna say it was an accident and not an evil-genie-wish scenario

[eager spire]

That'd be incredibly fucking annoying and i would have a few words to say about that.

[next onyx]

At least this isn't bf3 where the m26 mass bug wasn't fixed for 3 months.

[fervent rose]

definitely not intentional. still questionable in terms of competence

[next onyx]

Or hardline where our loadouts reset.

And we had to deal with that for a long time.

[spiral folio]

It would be funny to run a game by a dev name "monkey paw" where you balance by word for word what players ask for and fill in the blanks

[acoustic seal]

no this is 2042 where the recoil bug wasn't discovered for 1 year and then half fixed

[spiral folio]

"Rebalance tanks"
"Tanks center of gravity moved to a more realistic position"

[next onyx]

Though this games own issues stems from it was rushed.

[drowsy shuttle]

I have hopes they fix the extended mag in season 4 patch.

[dapper river]

all they had to do was test it in a mode that gave everyone a bottomless mag and to fire beyond what would normally be possible in a regular server 😂

[fervent rose]

im sure it will @drowsy shuttle

[next onyx]

It flew under everyone's radar.

[acoustic seal]

the pkp had huge recoil and 200 bullets, surely someone would've held it down at least once

[fervent rose]

still goofy

[arctic grove]

Love a good stresstest

5000 rpm guns

[next onyx]

Dev guns.

Rgb laser.

[solar obsidian]

fans go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[acoustic seal]

the k30 is 1200 and loses bullets lol

[spiral folio]

Like i said. They may have made the changes in their tests and then accidentally didnt load all the data right

[drowsy shuttle]

Like i said, it took them months to fix sundance nades dispite the fact they said it was fixed in 2 or 3 patch notes...

[sturdy otter]

guys i have question is their anyway you can see enemy chat

[dapper river]

No. I wish, but no

[fervent rose]

Sadly no, this war game is sanitized

[sturdy otter]

well i ran into a hacker

[solar obsidian]

no, only your own team will tell how trash you are

[sturdy otter]

he was chatting to us

from other team

[spiral folio]

Yeeeea nobody wants a war game with full realism

[fervent rose]

Haven't seen that one yet

[dapper river]

In a normal game or were you on a Portal server?

[acoustic seal]

WHO WAS TELLING ME CHEATERS COULDN'T CHAT TO ALL CHANNELS

[sturdy otter]

portal server

[acoustic seal]

WHO

[dapper river]

It might have been the admin then

[sturdy otter]

but it was the same colour

[spiral folio]

We dont need a combat sim thatll give people ptsd

[sturdy otter]

blue

[next onyx]

Hang on what.

[sturdy otter]

not grey

[next onyx]

That's a starling revelation.

[drowsy shuttle]

I wanna chat to the other team too

[dapper river]

oh, weird. Was he like cheating too or just chatting to your team? may have been a bug

[solar obsidian]

better disable cross play to avoid those*

[next onyx]

Startling.

[sturdy otter]

i think so

[fervent rose]

how is chatting to the other team a combat sim

[sturdy otter]

yea he had like 100 + kills to match the chat :S

he said we could do the chat to everyone in options

[spiral folio]

Somebody said how battlefield was a sanitized war game

[sturdy otter]

but ofc its a lie

[dapper river]

2042 needs proxy chat so I can spam Uptown Funk by Bruno Mars [BASS BOSTED] to the enemy

[solar obsidian]

feels perfectly stated

[drowsy shuttle]

I will never understand people cheating.. but cheating on bf 2042 i understand even less

[spiral folio]

And thats good cause you wouldnt want like nightmares for decades to play a fully graphic war game

[sturdy otter]

but imagine hacking in hardcore

its not exactly hard to get kills in hardcore

[solar obsidian]

coffin dance while you tbag them

[fervent rose]

but nobody was asking for a "fully graphic war game"

like bf doesn't need crazy gore. I just want all chat

[solar obsidian]

i am

[spiral folio]

But it's easier to get em with a weak gun and an aimbot than just a kind word and a gun

[solar obsidian]

i want the most over the top gore system that make doom and zombie games looks like a basic game
