battlefield-2042

[next onyx]

It's an Xm7 but bullpup.

That's all the gun is.

Both of the guns have the same thing going on with the suppressors.

Same round type.

Same general idea.

[ivory canopy]

Isn't the in-game M5A3 also just an XM7?

[edgy oriole]

its the spear so yes

[ivory canopy]

Yea I figured

I wanted to see more batshit crazy gun designs tbh

S3 sated that with the railgun and pistol

[next onyx]

I loved S3.

Out of all the seasons. Season 3 was certainly the best one.

Spearhead being one of the better maps and the weapons being genuinely unique.

[ivory canopy]

I'd like to see more bolt actions tbh.

Maybe a forward action bolt action to make it unique

[wide shore]

I didn’t care much for the S3 guns. They were unique. But too futuristic to really garner my interest

Spearhead is a decent map though

I think in terms of new guns, this season or season 2 were the best

S1 also had the BSVM but nothing else I really care about.

[next onyx]

Yeah Season 1 with just the VSS was kinda whatever.

Thanks for the DMR but that was about the only interesting thing.

[ivory canopy]

Yeah they didn't add much for S1 at all. S2 was where they really began to get their act together.

Also, AM40 my beloved

[arctic grove]

what are the current best smgs to use?

[next onyx]

PBX and AC9.

[arctic grove]

ty pal

is it normal that there was some AI in rush?

[wide shore]

PP29 if you like more range, lots of ammo and a slower ROF

Probably. It’s hard to know how popular Rush really is in this game.

[arctic grove]

oh so basically AI fills the numbers

i tried the pp29 it’s really good yeah, also lucy supremacy

[wide shore]

[copper ice]

use close combat ammo on the pbx

it has wonky values right now

[spiral folio]

p125
Lets do p250
A dual barrel 4 round burst version with two lil bitty drum mags

Hm might not work

Well tape two mags together

[pale mango]

anyone elses rpt-31 tier one just not progress?

been stuck on 1050 kills for like the past 3 games

[wide shore]

I have like 600 kills with the RPT and still haven’t unlocked the standard issue ammo

That gun is funky

[pale mango]

how odd

[drowsy shuttle]

i wouldn't let it out the pp29

[drowsy shuttle]

thats impossible.

i think i unlocked at 300 kills

[drowsy shuttle]

yep its a bug

[wide shore]

Oh I know it’s a bug

[low timber]

I like the Super 500, sure it sometimes fails with the pellet rng but it’s fun to just blast some over confident enemy away.

[pale mango]

personally i love having a secondary thats a gamble

[low timber]

But I doubt I’ll ever get it’s Playercard because it requires a multi kill

[drowsy shuttle]

and you have 600 kills using the heavy mag? you're a mad lad

[wide shore]

It’s not so bad

[spiral folio]

Im 1966 they made a smaller minigun firing 556 instead of 7.62 and called it a microgun

If they could go to 5.7 and make one even smaller

[wide shore]

I’m not a huge ROF guy. I like some guns with high rof but I honestly prefer slower rof guns.

[low timber]

I need 194 kills with the AC9 to T1 it.

[wide shore]

I’m not a big fan of the K30 for example. I have most of the base guns T1 but I still haven’t done the K30

[low timber]

Then it’s the LMGs turn

[patent prism]

what if we made a .22 LR minigun tho

[pale mango]

not that hard tbh

[patent prism]

nanogun?

[torpid wadi]

Fuck em squirrels

[wide shore]

AC9 is nice too but I just doesn’t fit my playstyle.

[spiral folio]

.22 or 5.7 would be fun

5.7 spend your whole paycheck in 1 minute

[patent prism]

wow you get paid a lot

[wide shore]

You’d need to kill a person with each shot back to back to back

[pale mango]

yeah i would know i have the card

its not that hard lol

[torpid wadi]

I had the m240 or so I thought, but i appear to no longer have it unlocked when i downloaded 42 on the ps5

[pale mango]

play mackay get a good flank then free

[low timber]

Can you kill two enemies first and the third with the Super 500 for it to count or all 3 with the Super 500?

[wide shore]

Probably not

[pale mango]

sundance also would probably work pretty well with their silly wingsuit for it

[low timber]

Hopefully it gets more attachments tbh, like it doesn’t have any barrel or “under”barrel attachments

[pale mango]

they tend to neglect secondaries (except the glock) so i doubt it

[low timber]

It has two side rails and only one of them is covered so the other should be allowed to have a laser/flashlight at some point, like NVK-S22 got it’s suppressor in 3.2

[spiral folio]

I fired a 5.7 and went through 40 rounds and the gun check persons loke "wow its still hot you weren't in there long"

Yea ... that's all i can really afford. Think i got the hang of it though

But ammo cost has come down a lot. It was over 1.20 per now its only like 60-70 cents

[arctic grove]

Is anyone on down to game with a random?

[patent prism]

I have no idea how much 5.7 costs, I just know it's fairly exotic and drew conclusions based on that.

[spiral folio]

9 is like 1/3 of that

Think you can get 100x 9mm for 40

[patent prism]

Can you get 9mm m/39B ammo over there?

[spiral folio]

Not sure what that is exactly

[patent prism]

An extremely potent version of 9x19mm that was developed in Sweden:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9×19mm_Parabellum#Swedish_m/39

[spiral folio]

Im sure some of the more niche shops might but i havent looked

[patent prism]

Yeah, I'd imagine that's the case now that I think more about it. 39B ammo causes significantly faster tear on the barrel.

Probably not super popular partially due to that. Takes a toll on the gun.

[spiral folio]

Yea it gets to why bother when you can get hollow ones or something

9s overpen as it is. One upside to 5.7. They even make frangible rounds to prevent ricochets

[patent prism]

Aye.

[fossil rain]

Looks like I’m one of the few people actually playing this game on last gen XD

[tacit sorrel]

I play on last gen as well waiting to upgrade

[spiral folio]

Im basically last gen but on pc so i can break the rules

[fossil rain]

I mean it was free on Playstation plus so I will take it

[spiral folio]

Probably to sell ps5s

[tacit sorrel]

They’ll probably make a superior version of the ps5 so I’m in no hurry

[fossil rain]

Well oof cause I was already planning on switching to PC gaming. Still though, even on last gen 2042 is pretty fun

[viral crescent]

Can I go wrong with a sniper setup with the NTW-50? Anything else a horrendous player such as myself should think about before trying to become the best sniper the game has ever seen?

[tacit sorrel]

I would consider pc but a ps5 would be cheaper

[viral crescent]

(A guy on yt said it was the best sniper rifle... so)

[grand prism]

So i just encountered a weird bug

[tacit sorrel]

Depends on the range

It can’t one shot past like 150m I think

And it’s slower

Bullet and rechambering speed

[grand prism]

So i finished some week 1 challenges that i forgot to finish then i finished them and they just reseted

And i said that's weird

[tacit sorrel]

Maybe more battle pass points then lol

You sure you’re not looking at week 2?

[grand prism]

No

Because i'm doing week 2 while i type

And i finished the first 3 and 2 week 1 challenges and i had 5 out of 9 and it went back to 0 out of 9

[drowsy shuttle]

i think that guy on youtube is more horrendous of a player than you

[spiral folio]

Step 1 dont use the ntw

[drowsy shuttle]

go with SWS

[naive magnet]

Is there any way to fix that stupid capture glitch

Where you can’t see progress?

[spiral folio]

Anything you can do with the ntw you can do better with something else

Except run out of ammo i guess

[ivory canopy]

The heavier ammo is ironically better for sniping, believe it or not. The "regular" ammo has hella bullet drop.

[spiral folio]

Ntw does that fast

[ivory canopy]

The super AP ammo has strangely less bullet drop, enough so that it's quasi-suitable for sniping.

[spiral folio]

If you want to kill vehicles. Use railgun

If you want to snipe infantry long range use dxr

If you want close range sniping use the first rifle

[next onyx]

Heavier ammo flies faster which leads it into being the best ranged ammo.

[ivory canopy]

Nowhere near as good as, say, the DXR

[viral crescent]

Thanks, this is useful info.

[spiral folio]

The ntw is like either a meme or so niche it has no real use

Like it "can" 1 hit body kill but below 100m. At which point why use a slow gun

[oak pumice]

NikemanSL

[spiral folio]

When i stopped using the ntw and went to thr dxr i did a lot better. When i went to the rail for my vehicle killer, even better

[full burrow]

lol never saw so many clusters of people amongs 5 deployables all hiding there

[viral crescent]

I'll give the DXR a go then, I think.

[spiral folio]

Its crazy when you fjnd clusters of people

[viral crescent]

The rail you mean?

[spiral folio]

Sometime i check the scores list thinking the game got full of AI

[ivory canopy]

DXR is unironically the ideal sniper

[spiral folio]

Yea its (the rail) not technically a "sniper rifle"

Dxr is

[ivory canopy]

Set it up right and you get almost no bullet drop

[spiral folio]

Dxr id say is better for infantry than the railgun

Rail doesnt get past 6x scope

Cause magic

[drowsy shuttle]

i prefer SWS to DXR. any day. I can do exactly the same DXR does with SWS. And faster

[spiral folio]

Dxr has ammo capacity and i think is slightly higher velocity

[lone wren]

Who needs big scopes when u could master long range with a 6x

[spiral folio]

Rail also cant bipod

[viral crescent]

I'd tried the railgun, but the loading delay between each miss became a bit too much for me, but I guess it gets better with attachments.

[arctic grove]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1003428984194859059/1082907085894860830/IMG_7494.jpg

[spiral folio]

I dont even think you can 'steady' the rail

[pale mango]

guns literally hitscan i dont know why you would use anything else

[spiral folio]

Its exactly not hitscan

[drowsy shuttle]

doesn't matter.. you can still compensate the bullet drop with SWS... also, SWS has more ammo than DXR.. faster reload, faster ADS, faster ROF...

[pale mango]

its hitscan up to like any distance you'd ever need to use a gun

[spiral folio]

No

Its 2000m/s not instant

[tacit sorrel]

Ntw is alright for its intended range

[pale mango]

that is literally so fast

[spiral folio]

Ive made kills at like 1000m there is a delay

[magic bloom]

Fr

[pale mango]

if you're sniping at 1000m you really need to find better things to do

[spiral folio]

I hunt transports with it a lot the delay is definitely there

[solid imp]

I had a Way-style game with the RM+SPH

feels good

[spiral folio]

Your opinion. And wrong

[remote kiln]

thats how fast my games end when joining a public match

[spiral folio]

Shoot put a pilot from a kilometer away. Its nice

[pale mango]

whats your tracker

i assume you get an average kill per match of 12?

[spiral folio]

Well since theyre vehicles

I mentioned i primarily target vehicles several times right?

And pilots

[pale mango]

ok so 12 kills per match

nothing else needs to be said

[solid imp]

That reminds me of this lolol https://twitter.com/MozzyFX/status/1595176016376434705?s=20

[magic bloom]

Who cares about kills?

[spiral folio]

Depends how maby are in the transport

Yea this kid.. emirite?

[pale mango]

people who want to win the game?

[spiral folio]

Killing transports is an important thing to do

[tacit sorrel]

Don’t care for the rorsch charge delay just annoys me

[spiral folio]

Im pretty good at it

[viral crescent]

I try my best to kill the others

[pale mango]

you can kill transports and also kill other people

[spiral folio]

And its fun

There's no need to get your panties in a bunch over it

[magic bloom]

Why do I have to kill people if I drop 90+ revives a game with little to no casualties after said revive

[pale mango]

sitting there doing 5 damage to a vehicle with each shot that will just make it run away for 5 seconds is not helping the team

[drowsy shuttle]

i do. i like to frag.. still help the team and cap, and go to crazy revives sometimes even without playing as medic... but i like to frag above all.

[pale mango]

whoops

wrong reply

[pale mango]

and tell me, what are you helping them do?

[magic bloom]

Get back in the fight?

[pale mango]

yes

and kill more people

[acoustic seal]

if you revive people who don't kill anyone, were they ever really revived?

[spiral folio]

You cant do both really. When there's no transpoet I'll go for infantry and jeeps and shit but when theres a transport I'm solely on its ass

[drowsy shuttle]

thats deep

[magic bloom]

I meant casualties in a way that means they didn’t instantly die when I revive them

[spiral folio]

The kinda guy that puts his bf winrate on his resume

[magic bloom]

I’d prefer to not revive someone if they’re going to die instantly

[spiral folio]

Good

[solid imp]

They prefer that, too

[spiral folio]

Man ...

[pale mango]

i get its below 50

but you dont gotta keep talking about it

[spiral folio]

Lol what

I dont get the hostility

[magic bloom]

My win rate is 70 something percent I believe

[limpid pond]

Shit joke

[drowsy shuttle]

why do i have the sense we're talking about pp sizes? lol

[limpid pond]

No funny

Boo

[spiral folio]

Mine is 2000

[acoustic seal]

ok now i'm asking you to post bftracker

[pale mango]

send tracker

[magic bloom]

No

I’m lazy

[spiral folio]

Honestly winrate in a game where YOU CAN LEAVE BEFORE THE BATTLE ENDS doesnt matter

[drowsy shuttle]

send nudes

[magic bloom]

It’s probably about 50 now but my highest was 70

[pale mango]

znath do you play on pc?

[spiral folio]

My wot/wows wr are like in the 60% area cause you cant just wuss out when you get a bad team and leave early

I like how this kid is goin after me though

[pale mango]

do you play on pc

making sure you're the person with a kill per match of 9.43

[acoustic seal]

https://battlefieldtracker.com/bf2042/profile/xbl/Cryo4614/overview

[drowsy shuttle]

i play on nintendo

[pale mango]

and a win rate of 46.2

[solid imp]

The stakes are so low, it doesn't matter... there isn't Unranked/Ranked or anything, no ELO, etc. You just go in and fight again, same as before.

[limpid pond]

You send tracker

[pale mango]

https://battlefieldtracker.com/bf2042/profile/origin/Sarahisadumby/overview

[magic bloom]

See told you it was about 50 now

[spiral folio]

He'll go to an interview like
"Yea I'm pretty good at battlefield"
Bossman "oh whats your favorite weapon"
"The m5a3 sir"
"M5... I'm more of a.. tankgewehr man myself"
-looks around the room-
-sees biplane models-
"Shit"

[limpid pond]

How do yall do that

[spiral folio]

[7 nation army plays]

[pale mango]

keep talking to yourself man

[limpid pond]

I get a server error when I try

[pale mango]

you can keep coping with your 9.43 kill per match

[spiral folio]

Well I'm not talkin to you

Lol this kid is tryin to statshame me

Whats my kdr kiddo

[pale mango]

you get 9 kills per match

you sit back with a rorsch

[limpid pond]

This is dumb

[spiral folio]

Whats my kdr

And

[pale mango]

3.01

[spiral folio]

Uhhuh

Whats yours

[pale mango]

3.00

[spiral folio]

-7?

[pale mango]

https://battlefieldtracker.com/bf2042/profile/origin/Sarahisadumby/overview

check my tracker

[spiral folio]

Neato
How many vehicles do you kill

-7?

[drowsy shuttle]

im waiting for the "how tall are you" question

[pale mango]

i've blown up a fair amount with c5

[limpid pond]

I remember when I had a 3.0.

[spiral folio]

Yea hes gonna try to tallshame me or something next

[limpid pond]

That was during launch before I started t1ing guns

[spiral folio]

Nifty.

[pale mango]

im like 5'5 and 110 lmao

i couldnt if i wanted to

[spiral folio]

How many daisies can you fit in your pockets

[limpid pond]

Someone look up mine

xXDreadXx5854

I'm curious what mine is

I keep getting a error

[spiral folio]

-10 kills per game?! Youre healiny enemies!

[limpid pond]

Me???

[pale mango]

i am disadvantaged as they give women way worse pockets

[limpid pond]

I average 50 kills a game there's no way

[spiral folio]

At one point when i was more active in bf1 i was ranked with the tankgewehr. I think ive dropped a bit since i havent been keeping it up

[limpid pond]

https://battlefieldtracker.com/bf2042/profile/xbl/xXDreadXx5854/overview

[drowsy shuttle]

i only played 45min of bf1

don't battlefieldshame me pls

[limpid pond]

Oh there we go

[next onyx]

NICE. A 45 kill per match.

[spiral folio]

Im at like 1000hrs on bf1
250 on 2042

A lot of 2042 was bot battles when the game was buggy

[limpid pond]

Mine is 39 somehow??

[spiral folio]

Like year1 was almost just bots

Cause sniper scope zoom bug

[limpid pond]

Not if you played breakthrough

[spiral folio]

Sniper bug made it pointless to try

So im saying I mostly fought bots

[tacit sorrel]

Apparently the mp28 can snipe wtf

[limpid pond]

Not necessarily

But it can yes

[tacit sorrel]

I literally just got melted around 150m

[drowsy shuttle]

you can snipe with every weapon, if you have the patience and trigger discipline. the ranges of weapons in bf2042 is ridiculous

[tacit sorrel]

A bit ridiculous for a pistol

[limpid pond]

They probably double headshot you than body shot you

[naive magnet]

Why hasn’t the capture bug been patched yet

Kinda ridiculous

[drowsy shuttle]

what cap bug?

[naive magnet]

You can’t see cap progress

In 1/3 games

[tacit sorrel]

Jammer audio bug still isn’t fixed

[naive magnet]

Can’t see how many are on, or current progress

[drowsy shuttle]

those fixes will come only in 4.1 update (hopefully)

[lunar finch]

my 4x ak24 is deff a better sniper than the DXR

[spiral folio]

Solution
Dont use jammer

Or maybe it's intended

[naive magnet]

You’d hope that since this game is pretty contingent on knowing how to capture or who’s on that this would be a hot fix

Not a patch

Kinda BS

[drowsy shuttle]

thats not how it works, you get the audio bug if you destroy a jammer.. even with any other specialist

[spiral folio]

Dont be near it?

[drowsy shuttle]

lol

[spiral folio]

All the jammers i shot are like 200m away

Never heard em make a noise

[arctic grove]

anyone searching 4 conquest? (EU)

[dense yew]

Hey guys, what mode should I play to find the most players in?

[arctic grove]

conquest

[dense yew]

Thanks

[spiral folio]

Conquest is lame

[elder sparrow]

Hey fellas, so ive been playing alot as Irish/Angel, mainly as support class and i always run into the same problem over and over again, ARMOR, how do i deal with the enemy armor(Vehicles and Helis) as a support class player?

[naive magnet]

As support?

[elder sparrow]

Yup

[naive magnet]

I usually try and run with scar, got AP rounds primary, HE as backup

You’re better off switching to Engineer and using either C5 or AT mines

[elder sparrow]

Which weapons can equip the AP ubgl?

[naive magnet]

I only use the scar

It’s the best weapon in my mind

Once you get the high capacity drum

It’s still very serviceable without one

[elder sparrow]

What about the SVK?

Or the AK

[naive magnet]

I wouldn’t know, if they have underbarrels, the rounds are all the same

The scar comes standard with an underbarrel

If you’re support, more often than not you’re the “hey armor I’ve got something to do some minor damage to you, so get away”

But I’m not confirming armor kills very much with the tubes

[spiral folio]

Wonder if statty mcShamus got timed out theyve beem quiet for a while

[dense yew]

I don’t know how this game was at launch but it’s fun as hell now

[tacit sorrel]

Don’t think I’ve ever seen a gun as bad as the npt it’s literally meme tier like the kalibri and liberator

[native walrus]

medicxcs are useless 80% of the time. they just ran past you

[elder meteor]

bystander effect in action.

[native walrus]

like, wwhy play as a medic if you play like an assualt

[elder meteor]

infinite med-pens

[native walrus]

free xp to revive tho

why cant thermal sight see trough smoke?

[naive magnet]

Might be the anti thermal smoke

[solid imp]

also might be balance

[native walrus]

why have thermal sight then?

[naive magnet]

You can use it 95% of the time with no consequences

[solid imp]

because you can see a bit easier through the soft cover like foliage and such

and whether or not it's intentional you can also see a hint of someone through a solid barrier like a wall

[native walrus]

thats why colorblind mode exist

[tacit sorrel]

They should improve the lighting in the flashpoint buildings

[naive magnet]

They should just remove flashpoint

Shit map

[native walrus]

no

[solid imp]

The map is fine

Have you played it 64p yet?

[tacit sorrel]

Better than discarded

[naive magnet]

I’ve played it probably… 5-7 times

It’s way too long and narrow

[solid imp]

Yeah it feels like a BF2 map 🙂

[native walrus]

lol. almsot 200 times

[naive magnet]

Once an enemy takes a good front, it’s impossible to flank

If you’ve played 200 times on that one map and you’re still complaining about thermal idk what to tell you

[native walrus]

not realy, use tactical methods

[solid imp]

There are only 3 map layouts, 1) Linear, 2) Open, 3) Croissant shaped*

• reference used without permissions of the EA community team in their podcast

[naive magnet]

Linear maps are arguably the worst

Spear point is crap too; with too many people on a map, you lose the ability to be able to try and flank hard

Because no vehicles are available

[native walrus]

realy depends on your playstyle

[naive magnet]

I’d happily take a little 4x4 Polaris or whatever to get a flank without needing a LATV4 though realistically they’re few and far between and you’re reliant on not having a shit team, which is impossible, because this is battlefield 😂

[solid imp]

I've flanked through to the back flag loads of times on Flashpoint just by spawning in a LATV and taking a side road. Sometimes sure I run into a tank but most of the time not.

[tidal bloom]

I'm having the worst time to put the right settings for the vehicles... is there a way to drive like in Battlefield 4? If yes, can somebody tell me what to put? For PlayStation

[naive magnet]

Again, that’s dependent on your team not exhausting vehicle spawns

[solid imp]

That's fair- but if you want to move quickly from point to point that's a struggle anyway yea?

[naive magnet]

I usually drop into trouble

But there’s no benefit on flashpoint

Because I can spawn to my hearts content and try to push the huge front, but it’s impossible with the sniper coverage from C, and the dug in positions

Can’t overcome 20 people in a narrow corridor with all the snipers, air, and what not

[solid imp]

The sniper coverage is rough, that's a fact but at least 64p means there's simply less of that going on

[naive magnet]

Hence the flanking motivation

[grand prism]

@tacit sorrel it fixed apparently the week 1 challenges had a visual bug xD

[naive magnet]

Flashpoint may be a better 64 map then 128, too overwhelming at that point

But I don’t want to cycle it on regular conquest because of that specific reasoning

[solid imp]

Yes 128 on flashpoint was Chaotic Evil while I stand by 128 being Chaotic Good on other maps

[spiral folio]

128 FFA

[naive magnet]

128 on other maps have “designated areas” where you can safely engage without getting some BS sniper or vehicle killing you before you can even determine your whereabouts

Spearhead comes to mind as the closest to flashpoint

And I hate that map too for the same reason

[solid imp]

This also goes to the fact that snipers are simply hard to balance into large action fps

Map design with snipers in mind is not easy

[spiral folio]

They've beem in fps games since what...

[solid imp]

And always hard to balance in

[spiral folio]

Did wolfenstein have a sniper

[solid imp]

It's why the camper meme exists

It's why the term" camper" exists lol

[naive magnet]

They’ve been around since halo mainstream

[spiral folio]

Campers arent necessarily snipers

[solid imp]

I would contend it's a huge part of it

[naive magnet]

I think of campers I think of that asshole in a corner with an SMG

Not a sniper

[spiral folio]

Yea corner campers

Shotgun campers

Etc

[solid imp]

yeah they suck too

[spiral folio]

In the olde tyme FFA days

[naive magnet]

Sniping is obviously camping, it’s like a requirement haha

Haha

[solid imp]

Well now that's where BF has always tried to give Snipers more of a Recon role that doesn't necessarily have to do with putting a 40x on something

[spiral folio]

Id say "some jackass hiding in a corner with a shotgun like a trap" is magnitudes worse than a sniper

[solid imp]

To try and reel them into the action if they want

[spiral folio]

Yea thats why all the recon specialists suck

[solid imp]

But fact is the 1hk weapon is always going to be a nice juicy pick of a lot of players

[spiral folio]

And have stupid short range crap

Make more weapons 1hk

Solved

[naive magnet]

I can always appreciate a good sniper knocking me out from 800m, sure it hurts, but that’s skill, I don’t care that he hasn’t left spawn the entire game, his utility is much less than a guy watching the back staircase with a shotty/SMG on an objective or a choke

[solid imp]

Dude in a game yesterday was 40-5 and was sniping the whole time... pissed me straight off but I respected the skill level and that's his thing he does really well

What I don't like as much is that guy who goes 3-15 helping no one and nothing

[spiral folio]

Those are the snipers i harass and then send a lis rocket

I know i wont win rifle to rifle so... shoop

[quasi talon]

I need 1st person melee execution soo baaaaaaaaaaaaaad

[naive magnet]

I don’t mind name dropping these guys; I hate them, there is a duo attack heli/gunner combo, that are arguably the main reason I hate Attack helis so much

[native walrus]

and the one that screams for medic but rushes a point with a knife

[spiral folio]

Melee in a gun game

Theres yer problem

[naive magnet]

H3avenskies and LukeYTGaming

Or something like that

You’ll know when you see them because the gunner has 100+ kills and they literally don’t die

Because the AA heli has no counters and is the most unbalanced thing in this game right now

[spiral folio]

Tie 3-15 people are the ones that rush an objective full sprint and keep dying saying everyone cheats because they totally fired even though their draw time was increased due to sprinting

Yelling PTFOOO

BECAUSE the only REASON they die i NOBODY IS

-checks scoreboard-
-sees 5 snipers-
"THERES TOO MANY SNIPERS"

-changes to the snipers squad and harasses them the rest of the battle-

Seen that movie a few times

[naive magnet]

I mean it’s better than the people all running assault and engineer with 4 kills and 12 deaths

At least run medic if you suck

[rocky bear]

I've taken to just exclusively running aa when I see them, or staying indoors. It has become increasingly annoying to see them

[naive magnet]

I hate them, I’m glad I’m not the only one

[spiral folio]

Medic is a waste of time for me
People just skip

[naive magnet]

I’ll drive you around in a LaTV4 with a 50mm if you can shoot

Desperation

[native walrus]

ye that too but there are those who dont give a f in helping

[naive magnet]

But I’ve exhausted all other options, especially post LIS nerf

[spiral folio]

I dont even play support cause you cant NOT have revive

[rocky bear]

I just don't bother most of the time

There's another I've seen recently

Genius Professor or something like that

[naive magnet]

But then you lose

Oh yeah he’s good

[rocky bear]

I just avoid all of them

[spiral folio]

Just as bad is playing lis and i cant NOT have repair tool so dumbass sniper tanks wanting repairs so they shoot next to me. Yea thanks..

[naive magnet]

He used to be around a while back, he’s a great pilot

[rocky bear]

yea he was like 151 and 0 last night

crazy stuff

[naive magnet]

Sounds about right

I’m glad that aa is so strong

[rocky bear]

thankfully I haven't had to go against him yet but I can't imagine being the other team

[naive magnet]

I can respect a good pilot, but I don’t think being excellent at something should translate to 1 death against 64 people

Especially with how they have repair ability and a 40mm turret that reloads faster than life

[rocky bear]

It's definitely a respectable skill but goddamn does it get old fast

[tacit sorrel]

I have no respect for stealth heli pilots who just stay in bomb mode all match

[lone wren]

I should fly more fast pace

[lime mango]

Never knew a map could have 2 tornadoes

[solid imp]

I get the first guy... mistakes happen. BUt then this other dope drops in lol

[rocky bear]

The problem is that they just make it so easy to do

[karmic egret]

I really hate flashpoints lighting

[wide shore]

Only stranded

[native walrus]

you can see 5 in flashpoint but only one is active in the battlefield

[karmic egret]

Yeah i cant see my reticle in some maps

Flashpoint is the worst

[inner ether]

Radical idea: Make Breakthrough maps have fewer sections that are more evenly balanced, with attackers not getting absurd amounts of vehicles. Make each point matter instead of designing sections to be easier to capture or harder to capture depending on what stage it is like it's been designed now.

[karmic egret]

on flashpoint you may aswell use irons

[native walrus]

#stopthehateonflashpoint

[next onyx]

BT has always been built to get progressive harder for the attackers to push through.

If you want something that's the same no matter what give Rush a go.

[viral crescent]

Are there any good resources, yt or otherwise, new players should check out to improve? I've watched some of the yt stuff from what probably are the most popular streamers, but seeing them wipe out the whole map without a single death is not really all that helpful. I'm looking for something that discusses tactics, maps, and how to approach the game really. Does something like that exist?

[native walrus]

search up. beginner tips and tricks battlefield2042

[sturdy socket]

any new sneak peeks at features upcoming or nah

[stiff pollen]

All chat

Uhhhhh

[native walrus]

only thing about flashpoint is the ranger, he loves to stare in rocks and walls

[stiff pollen]

Flashpoint actually isn’t THAT bad

I think the breakthrough layout is bad tho

[slender isle]

64p is ass

128p ain't bad

[stiff pollen]

64p on it is fine

[slender isle]

wrong

[stiff pollen]

I prefer 64 player

[slender isle]

wrong

[stiff pollen]

[sturdy socket]

that wasn't a response to your question, i just got here

[viral crescent]

This is not really the answer I was looking for, but in hindsight my question is pretty lame...

[stiff pollen]

I don’t play the game if there’s no 64 player conquest

[slender isle]

I'll give you 3 reasons as to why 64p sucks ass in 2042: Vehicle balance (more vehicles than players on objs most times), Empty objs, unbalanced sides

[stiff pollen]

So you just gave me reasons that were in the past games?

[slender isle]

Yeah, 64p sucks ass

[copper ice]

vehicles are still invincible from a single APS or flares

more weapons do not beat immortality

[stiff pollen]

🤷‍♂️

[slender isle]

128p = a good amount of vehicles but not over use, all objs have players on them, certain maps are unbalanced but not due to player count usually due to height differences

[stiff pollen]

Yeah I just don’t wanna play 128

[slender isle]

They do... if they're 3 AT mines

[copper ice]

simply do not drive over the mines

[slender isle]

Simply parachute ontop of the vehicle

Oh also, you can place an angel crate ontop of tanks and they get stuck and then blow up

[copper ice]

the only consistent counter is c5 rushing yeah, and thats still reliant on the defence fucking up

[slender isle]

Why?

[stiff pollen]

Don’t like it

Game ran worse during the first year the game was out on 128

Servers weren’t any better either

[slender isle]

So the servers weren't good and the performance wasn't good

but now they both are

64p is still at 45hz servers, so they both have the same latency etc

It may perform better but for my rig 160vs180 fps is not much difference

[stiff pollen]

Ok

[copper ice]

same hz rate doesnt mean same performance

mordhau had 30hz servers when it went from 64 to 80 and the servers couldnt handle the strain and dropped under 30hz consistently with 80p

[native walrus]

most revives (8)

[copper ice]

same thing happens with 2042

i see grenades go through irish APS consistently on 128p

[late flower]

I can’t get a match in any of the core modes man..

[slender isle]

That's more of a bug with Zain's gadget from what I've tested. He can get his thing to blow up within the APS field of view even if it is hit by the APS

[late flower]

Is matchmaking region based

[slender isle]

Never have I seen a grenade go through though

[slender isle]

Yes

[late flower]

Can I change the region

[copper ice]

That happens as well, but grenades going through is something limited to 128p in my experience

[lilac dust]

Pretty wild that for the rest of this month the game is free to own forever on playstation. Something xbox players don't get the luxury of since gamepass takes games off it's pass many times. Tell your ps friends to grab it while they can!

[slender isle]

With a vpn you can yeah

[native walrus]

battlefield ussualy is forever on gamepass

[stiff pollen]

Weird flex but ok

[late flower]

I’d hoped that’s get enough players but apparently not

[late flower]

Can I do that on ps

[slender isle]

Oh I've been Irish for the past 2 weeks and haven't had this issue

[lilac dust]

Maybe, but there's still no guarantee, unlike playstation

[lilac dust]

Not intended as a flex lol just saying it's good for the health of the game

[stiff pollen]

True

[slender isle]

I think so? You'll have to research how though

[slender isle]

You can't play it if you run out of PS+

[stiff pollen]

I ended up dropping 30 kills in a single life yesterday cause console lobbies

Ty gamepass and PS plus

💪

[lilac dust]

Yes, but if you bought ps plus tomorrow or 2 years from now you would still have free acess to BF 2042

[slender isle]

That's very true

Xbox used to do that with GOLD didn't they? I got Black flag and dishonoured from that

best games ever

[late flower]

Are you sure it’s not a bug, I see games in portal that got a 128 players with decent ping

Do people not play core

I’ve restarted but to no avail

[stiff pollen]

They do it depends on region

[slender isle]

Ohhhh yeah portal you can switch, but if you go through AOW then you can't. Try turning on cross play

It'll get you into matches with both PC and Xbox players

[late flower]

I have

[lilac dust]

How's portal looking btw? Might take a few weeks for the ps plus players to kick in, but anyone noticing a jump in servers on there?

[slender isle]

Not really, still xp and hardcore servers

however I have been seeing a 64p flashpoint 24/7 no vehicle game pop up

[late flower]

Whats the most popular core mode atm

[edgy oriole]

BT

[late flower]

Regular or the “seasons”

[slender isle]

Seasons

Always the weekly playlist

[late flower]

Well I guess I’ll lfg in this server so someone can help me cross over to another region

[native walrus]

why is there always the person that says (useless team) and is always last on leaderboard with 1 kill and 18deaths

[white ginkgo]

just reply with skill issue

you'll live in their head rent free 100% of the time

[native walrus]

i said he was the one who was useless and not the team

[white ginkgo]

that works as well

i bet he got off the game after that interaction

people who get mad at bf the type of people to break down because their doordash order was 10 minutes later than its estimated time

[native walrus]

bet, he said my mom was fatter than a car

[pale mango]

i always just reply with their kd

[native walrus]

like, should they drive at 100mph in a 25 zone?

[white ginkgo]

nah fr

i have only died to it since after they nerfed it tbh

[slender isle]

It’s a stick nade

Stick it

[white ginkgo]

^

[copper ice]

its not supposed to be an impact nade

its for busting walls

[white ginkgo]

all it takes is doinking one guy he gonna panic and run back into his boyfriends and blow them up too

NO!

not true!

ill tell hamfarsah!

[copper ice]

stole enemy heli and spent the whole round not dying

this isnt even fun

[white ginkgo]

on todays episode of fact or cap

[naive magnet]

I ran over 3 guys with a MAV today at once

[white ginkgo]

NOT TRUE

THATS LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE

[naive magnet]

Fact:

https://www.xbox.com/play/media/6QANHNXZRJ

I should retire

[white ginkgo]

i should take this life opportunity to get into HVAC and be rich as ballsacks for life and retire at 40

[naive magnet]

That profession is so hot and cold though

[white ginkgo]

and they make skabankers

unbelievable banker

[naive magnet]

Unbelievable bank is quite subjective

[white ginkgo]

UN BELIEBER ABLE

[naive magnet]

Is it un-Bieber-able though?

[white ginkgo]

and i was like BABY BABY BABY ohhhhhhhh

[naive magnet]

Doesn’t sound like it is

[white ginkgo]

ure insulting me

[lunar finch]

@limpid pond lmao ur right, suppressors do make hit reg better thats so dumb but the ac9 feels amazing now

[lavish hawk]

Anyone else having dc issues disconnecting from ea servers

[native walrus]

me with 35 kills and 18 deaths 💀

[lavish hawk]

ah yeah its disconnecting for me an a friend over and over

[pseudo wren]

So what is the equivalent of you reviving another medic or squad mate for you to be shot and downed and the guy you just revived just takes cover on your body without reviving you!!

Yea that's happened three times just tonight!!

[silk surge]

Ding ding, ding ding... ding

[white ginkgo]

https://youtube.com/shorts/9_HsdykVuRU?feature=share

someone said "if EA made rust"

[mortal iris]

nice

[fervent rose]

completely fair and balanced airburst aoe

[next onyx]

So NOW you're getting used to the XM.

[native walrus]

dear mods, please remove that gun🥹 /s

[ebon pilot]

but have you seen 7

[remote kiln]

pizza your videos give me fisheye cause of that UW

hud is further from the map than objective points on conquest

[lavish shore]

how Do i use stealth mode with the heli,

[ebon pilot]

what are you using, KBM or controller?

[lavish shore]

KBM@ebon pilot

[ebon pilot]

press Z, drop bombs with M1

you can only drop bombs in stealth mode

[lavish shore]

okay thank u

[shell ermine]

New AR is kinda ass

[ebon pilot]

when I use it at longer ranges I do really well
anything shorter and I get destroyed as faster fire rates prevail

[shell ermine]

Its just another AR with a damn 20 round mag.

Aren't the M5 and AK the only 2042 ARs with 30 round default mags?

[slender isle]

Skill issue

[next onyx]

The assault rifle is not ass at all ironically.

[slender isle]

Non of the new guns are bad

[ebon pilot]

yea I actually like all of em

[shell ermine]

Mag sizes are too small, yet again

Plus there is no benefit to using it over the Scar that I can find.

[ebon pilot]

integrated suppressor maybe

[wide shore]

Yeah the only suppressor in the game that doesn’t suck ass

It’s a suppressor that acts like a compensator

[shell ermine]

The descriptions say that suppressors keep you off the minimap at range, what's the actual numbers for that?

[wide shore]

If it’s like the other light suppressors, it’s 20m+

[karmic egret]

Bro this battlepass progression is fucked

6000 xp for one dot

at level 30?

[wide shore]

It’s not based on the level

[next onyx]

6000 xp isn't the most.

[wide shore]

It’s based on how many times you’ve completed that challenge.

[next onyx]

I know it's based off how quickly you accumulate?

[wide shore]

So if you’ve been farming xp in the portal servers like I have. That number is gonna get super high really early on

[karmic egret]

i havent been farming

ive been playing alot of tdm

[wide shore]

Then you’ve been playing a lot

Yeah

The more you complete the xp challenge. The higher the number gets.

[karmic egret]

by the time i unlock the assualt rifle ill be so burned out

[wide shore]

In the end it just becomes the same tbh

[karmic egret]

that i wouldnt even bother playing

[wide shore]

Slow down then man. Lol

Wait for the weeklies and do those

[karmic egret]

yeah i am doing the weekly challenges but they are shit

[wide shore]

There hasn’t been anything too egregious yet imo

[next onyx]

Think I'm 54 here and I need 8000 points I think?

[wide shore]

I’m at around 5k at like 43? Ish

[shell ermine]

You don't even need to complete every weekly challenge to max the BP

I missed a bunch of the bonus challenges last season and still easily maxed it

[wide shore]

Because you can get a lot of points for just playing

But if you didn’t get points for playing, just completing the weeklies wouldn’t get you the BP

You need 1,000 points total for 100 tiers. 1,150 for the T1 badge. You get, about 50 per week off weeklies. How many weeks are there?

[shell ermine]

14 iirc

[wide shore]

Yeah so around 700

Give or take

Correction I’m actually at 7,250 per point now

Actually you get 55 per week if you do the bonus. So exactly 770 for weeklies alone

[slender isle]

It has less recoil and does more damage at range. Plus, is more accurate

[idle lion]

gotta love how BF2042 just fuckin breaks if you alt tab sometimes. like i just alt tabbed and its not letting me back in

[karmic egret]

gotta get 25 wingman ribbons lmoa

[idle lion]

whyyyy

11.5 matches if you get 3 ribbons per match

[karmic egret]

sorry 25

typo

but still

[granite island]

I'm still Mad they removed the observatory part of breakaway

[karmic egret]

nah

[granite island]

Could've just made it a non objective

[karmic egret]

the observatory was neat but it was so far away

[granite island]

The observatory was like a free point

[karmic egret]

and the only way you could get to it was air vehicles or a comedically long zipline

[granite island]

Like the first objective on Flashpoint

A free point

[karmic egret]

all points close to hq are free points

[granite island]

Actually wish they made it a hq spawn point

Like kaleidoscope

Where one of the hq spawn points are basically for Sundance players

[karmic egret]

kaleidocope is just a shit map in general

[arctic grove]

DICE is dumb. They could have literally made another map using the Observatory in the middle

[granite island]

It's not that bad

[karmic egret]

Kaleidoscope does not flow well

[arctic grove]

DICE was too scared to give us an urban map lol

[karmic egret]

Like look at this does this look like it can flow well

its an old screenshot

[granite island]

Isn't that old kaleidoscope

Wait nvm

I just saw your comment

Actually breakaway didn't need a rework

It needed a redesign

A restart

[karmic egret]

yeah its old kaliedoscope

this is how id do the kaliedoscope rework

[granite island]

Now if grand operations existed

Kaleidoscope would be 2x as long

[karmic egret]

kaliedoscope on breakthrough is great

[granite island]

Simply turn e1 into a spawn point

[karmic egret]

no

[fervent rose]

thats not balanced

[glacial quarry]

conquest

yuck

[rocky kraken]

just saying conquest made battlefield

sad its bad in 2042

[ebon pilot]

people think conquest is bad???

that's almost the only thing I play...

[rocky kraken]

YEA

yteah

conquest is ran by transport helis

[ebon pilot]

so is breakthrough if they're available

[rocky kraken]

naw

[ebon pilot]

yaw

[idle lion]

did dice add ricocheting bullets?

[rocky kraken]

been a thing

[idle lion]

huh

i havent seen it till now

[rocky kraken]

yea

its not common

theres alot of small detail

no one sees

[idle lion]

anyone wanna hop on rush 128?

[karmic egret]

nobody plays rush

[idle lion]

yeah i meant portal

[rocky kraken]

rush is like the most played gamemode

with breakthrough

[idle lion]

in oce its dead

im tryina revive it by bringing the chaos rush from europe to here

[upbeat sand]

Ya I like the old one better layout wise

It was more battlefield

While the new one is just another 3 point with 1 in the middle type for 64

[granite island]

Rush 128 stranded is a meat grinder

I love it

So many grenades

[delicate bay]

howdy what is the easiest way to unlock the railgun

[karmic egret]

Breakaway went from the worst map to the best map

[lunar finch]

conquest isnt bad but i wouldnt play it over bt

[spiral folio]

Conquest is old

When your choices were TDM or conquestn conquest was slightly better

But soon as operations came along. Didnt look back

[sturdy socket]

the ballistic shield in tdm is hilarious

god i love that they made it good

[karmic egret]

i must say bahkmut will make a hell of a good battlefield map

[spiral folio]

Just use one of the bf1 russia maps

[karmic egret]

boooo russia booo

[spiral folio]

About all thats left

There's a Kiev map in world of tanks

Its better condition

[karmic egret]

i swear to god if they remake Tsaritsyn

that map is pure AIDS

[spiral folio]

The reason bakmut has been such a hard place to take is it secures 3 bridges and is a geological bottleneck

And russias sending barely armed people on foot.

[karmic egret]

DICE furiously writing down notes

[spiral folio]

The most similar map is probably the urban russia map. Just point blank fighting between destroyed houses

[karmic egret]

even if russia capture bahkmut it will be a Pyrrhic victory

cuz russia has lost so much men and equipment

[spiral folio]

Rumor is theyve had 30000 casualtiew

[karmic egret]

bruh thats like half of the cities population

[spiral folio]

At bakmut alone

Cause if that brutal hand to hand sort of fighting

Literally shovels

[karmic egret]

Shumvel

[lunar finch]

is the svd supposed to 1 shot to head... that doesnt seem balanced

[spiral folio]

Ironically, the same shovels as in bf1

[karmic egret]

lmoa

[mental delta]

Ukraine says Russia has 100000 while Russia says Ukraine has 100000

[spiral folio]

7.62mm

[karmic egret]

Yeah Ukraine's sources are more believable than russia

[spiral folio]

Casualtiew arent necessarily deaths

Russias gotta deplete their prison population anyway

[rocky kraken]

playing in 50 fov is a different game

wtf

[spiral folio]

The number of tanks theyve confirmed lost and captured is also huge

One was spotted in germany

Bet there's a good bounty on t90s

[mental delta]

In both cases they probably lie and over evaluate the casualties count enemy side has, and probably lower their number of casualties 🥲

[rapid flint]

omg bf tracker still hasn't updated the new weapons stats...

I just want to check if my rm68 kills/min stat's over 5 or not....

[spiral folio]

Oh no

[granite island]

30 min long rush 128 stranded match

We were still fighting because the end bit bugged the bomb

Until it just switched to flashpoint

[final lintel]

Lol

[granite island]

Oh that's why everybody got switched to flashpoint

The owner joined

[lunar finch]

i love being a goat medic so much

[limpid pond]

@lunar finch yeah I know I was right. The suppressors definitely give you more hit reg is you use the wrapped

[granite island]

They banned blasco

So Casper could spot

They also banned eod bot in this portal match because it bugs the rush bomb thing

[shell ermine]

Which Shotgun is the best to bang out these hipfire kills?

[granite island]

Super shotgun side arm

[lunar finch]

i used the ac9

[void gorge]

Good night, when I enter the 2042 main conquest mode, I am placed on a server that is not from my country, since I am not using vpn, how do I change the location?

[white geyser]

Another gun I unlocked in BF 2042 and it's the XM8 LMG I haven't unlocked, until now.

[kindred flint]

lol...gotta love how the worst pilots in the game are always the ones to spawn a transport first

[dapper river]

everybody wants to revive this guy!

[hollow notch]

lmfao

that's amazing because it seems like nobody EVER makes an effort to save my ass

oh, you're like 10m away, too far, eat shit

lmfao

[lunar finch]

new record, still lost though :(

[hollow notch]

yet i'll run like 100M to try to rez someone and he'll just give up when i'm 5m away

get meme'd

[lunar finch]

i hate that, people cant just wait 5 seconds man

[dapper river]

I hope none of those were 20's or instant death revives, because those don't count

[hollow notch]

happens so often or people will give up when i'm literally right next to them.

[granite island]

Sorry but I'm currently being ambushed by 8 people and there are 4 Sundance grenades going off at my location

[hollow notch]

like dude i could've rez'd you?..

[granite island]

I can't revive you

[lunar finch]

lmao

the defibs are so slow sometimes i accidentally do 20 rezs

or ill point the defib directly at them and the game just says no so i have to do a quick 20

[shell ermine]

How? The gun is awful

[lunar finch]

i really like it

[rocky kraken]

AC9 IS BAD?

[hollow notch]

lol it's not awful

[rocky kraken]

the fuck

its the best gun in the entire game

[shell ermine]

Its shit

[hollow notch]

def not the best gun but it's pretty good

[shell ermine]

Awful damage, awful range, awful recoil, awful starting mag size

[hollow notch]

mid range is sketch tho

[lunar finch]

ive been shredding with ac9 idk man

[hollow notch]

the recoil isn't bad at all lol

[acoustic seal]

bro it's the second coming of the k30

[hollow notch]

yeah

the starting mag does suck tho

i've done well with it when i use it, just can't shoot at people too far out

[lunar finch]

its only downside is its irons tbh for those first 5 kills

but all 2042 irons suck anyways

[shell ermine]

Says the PC player

[grand gulch]

I killed a atv4 driver and it still roadkilled me

:(

[kindred flint]

forcing myself to go for hipfire kills instead of ADS ...

[shell ermine]

Recoil is a different world on controller vs m&kb. What someone on m&kb finds as good/controllable recoil doesn't translates 1:1 to controllers always

[hollow notch]

use mouse and kb then

LOL

[pure sparrow]

Who here plays bf1

[kindred flint]

just unlocked the uhh warhawk comp for the ac9...thats a ripper for sure

[hollow notch]

anyways, i was speaking from my experience so yeah, it's definitely based on my pc experience.

[pure sparrow]

battlefield 1 way better then 2042

[hollow notch]

go play it then

LOL

[pure sparrow]

lol

i have both

[acoustic seal]

battlefield 1 is shit in a completely different way

well, not that different now that 2042 is explosive spam hell too

[shell ermine]

BF1 is the second worst Battlefield after 2042

[pure sparrow]

idk its a solid game and very fun

[kindred flint]

behemoths were a stupid idea

[grand gulch]

mmm smg 08s and attack planes farming you

[hollow notch]

i don't care for it tbh, i like bfv more than bf1

[kindred flint]

i put waaay more hours into 5 than 1...and certainly much faster

bf1 at launch and a couple months in was fucking awful lol

[pure sparrow]

lol

[radiant prism]

Yeah I have about double the hours on V than I do on 1

And 2042 has already surpassed my time on 1

[grand gulch]

I didnt adjust to V real well and 1 ran better on my pc so I played it instead

[radiant prism]

Homie really joined the server so he could say he thinks 1 is better than 2042 as if it’s some god tier take and not just his opinion

[shell ermine]

I tapped out of BF1 after 30 hours

[radiant prism]

BF1 was my first BF game

And I loved it

[grand gulch]

everything about bf1 was alright EXCEPT

[radiant prism]

Until I played V then realized how god awful 1 plays lol

[grand gulch]

all the classes had like set faces and like, should have been randomized

like ok there WERE black and indian dudes and include them but not every one

[fervent rose]

nah man v was so much worse without horses, gas grenades, sweet spot and suppression

[radiant prism]

I mean there’s that (which makes it really funny to me when people bitch about 2042 being “clone wars”) but then you get into all the shit mechanics 1 has

[upbeat sand]

I just got a dm what

[lunar finch]

idk how horses never got hard nerfed

i played bf1 a couple months ago and jesus

those things have as much hp as a tank

[rocky kraken]

2042 sucks

its just easy to say

[upbeat sand]

Ya it takes me 2 small anti tank grenades

[rocky kraken]

rolls of the tongue good

[lunar finch]

bruh they couldn't even make it past the first sector on flashpoint... attacker flashpoint is so free lmao

[upbeat sand]

Dang you hate the year 2042

Worried bout getting old?

[grand gulch]

assaults kind of shat on horses with at rocket tho

[upbeat sand]

Problem is BF1's launchers needed you to be bipoded

[grand gulch]

that didn't stop people from being absolute cunts with them

also I was talking up the svd with standard ext and short barrel but its not as good as I remembered

[shell ermine]

You play V and it makes all other Frostbite Battlefield games look lesser in comparison

[grand gulch]

the bots need to go away with these lcmg 2-frames

[rapid gulch]

Is the week 2 bonus not progressing for anyone else?

[shell ermine]

Nah, I just finished it myself. Tracked fine

[acoustic seal]

good news, they are technically vehicles and die very fast to AT weapons

[rapid gulch]

Mine isn't. Would restarting fix it?

[shell ermine]

Hurts nothing to try it

[rapid gulch]

Restart fixed it

[lunar finch]

i really hope 30mm and 50mm is removed from latvs mid season man

this shit is so awful

[acoustic seal]

no such luck, this is their response https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/678424976633757698/1083233522094968903/FqsItZOXsAIIzaq.png

[lunar finch]

they said in their dev q&a they are working on a nerf so

better not be season 5

[acoustic seal]

a "survivability" nerf unfortunately

[copper ice]

I thought you were fucking with me but this is actually real

[lunar finch]

they said they are looking into transport vehicles as a whole

[copper ice]

dont put too much stock into that

Last time they looked into anything they decided smgs didnt deserve rewards for accuracy

If that continues it'll be giving the transport heli the JUBBA bombs

[lunar finch]

i mean i rather transport vehicles be useless than what they are now if thats their approach lol

[limpid pond]

M5 is 100% ar meta

Every person is using the m5

[lunar finch]

always has been

[delicate bay]

what is the easiest way to get vehicle damage from primaries for the railgun

[limpid pond]

No sfar was meta

[lunar finch]

wait until everyone gets their hands on the rm68

ngl the ak24 is better than the m5 though

[limpid pond]

M5a3 just shreds everyone. I dropped 80 with it and I'm half asleep

[copper ice]

what do you mean

[delicate bay]

to unlock it you need kills with marksman/sniper (i did that) and 200 damage against vehicles using your primary weapon

what is the easiest way to do that

[hybrid totem]

armor piercing rounds?

[sonic osprey]

What's it like?

[white geyser]

I haven’t start using it

[copper ice]

40mm AP under barrel grenade launcher

[delicate bay]

what gun has that

[copper ice]

Sfar, ak24, svk

[crude wave]

Wassup guys it's like 11 at night n shit

I think I have insomnia

[hollow mural]

HEY WHO KNOWS WHICH WINDOWS FORTNITE SUPPORTS?

[lunar finch]

i used armor piercing pkp

[idle lion]

if you jump out of the transport heli as pilot in the middle of the enemy point you deserve to be banned from all BF games

perma

[lunar finch]

ok but

what if ur doing it to troll

sometimes i like to get into a condor at the start of the game and crash it with everyone in it

[hexed reef]

Lmao

[lunar finch]

sometimes others must suffer for the sake of comedy in bf

[idle lion]

you deserve a perma ban

[acoustic seal]

throwback to jet ramming entire hordes of console players who haven't loaded in yet

[lunar finch]

ok but like:

[idle lion]

you still griefed at the start of a round

[lunar finch]

even if i crash condors im still a top tier medic

[idle lion]

doesnt matter

[acoustic seal]

https://youtu.be/H9yV5_WK2rk

[idle lion]

you are griefing at other points of the match

[acoustic seal]

this is peak 2042

[lunar finch]

😦

[lunar finch]

those cant be real people

oh its portal nvm

portal players are a lil out there ..

[acoustic seal]

no this is how the game played way back at launch

vehicles got control faster than infantry did at match start

[lunar finch]

but like the kill streak he went on after

[next onyx]

Launch was awful.

[lunar finch]

no one like shot back

[next onyx]

The vehicle balance was awful.

[acoustic seal]

are you expecting some guy with a pkp to be standing in your spawn on load?

neither were they

[inner ether]

I'm enjoying Blasco

[ebon pilot]

this RM68 is pretty good. here's it destroying a bolte in 3 shots

[idle lion]

its called playing as if you had a life and a job

[inner ether]

Uuuuh what the hell

It feels like Blasco gadget doesn't stop Irish APS from working

[tall steeple]

Quick question but did they remove the squad leader system where if you ask for orders and don't receive any that it makes you squad leader. Does following squad leader orders mean nothing now or do my squad leaders just not care.

[tacit sorrel]

I don’t think they care about squad functions

Worst it’s been in a long time

[tall steeple]

I just came back since release and Its taking forever to unlock things cause nobody plays the objective

[tacit sorrel]

You can still ping objectives with out being leader

[lunar finch]

i mean after he crashed a whole ass jet into everyone yeah

[tall steeple]

sucks cause thats like the main reason I even play battlefield games is the teamwork and i havent seen any of that in the past few days ive played.

[lunar finch]

and honestly im such a fan if i died to that i wouldve spawned in and immediately went for him

[copper fulcrum]

Yeah her Jammer stops gadgets from spotting, not working

[inner ether]

and from locking on?

[copper ice]

Squad mechanics barely function right now

[copper fulcrum]

Yes

So a jammer will spot enemy gadgets, and stop their spotting capabilities. It'll stop vehicles nearby it from being locked on

[lucid jackal]

Very good game

[lunar finch]

camping with a wild cat and blasco...

oh no

[lucid jackal]

Which chat will show up in game

[chilly jacinth]

huh

[slender isle]

Camping with a wildcat, irish as a driver, and crawford sitting in the passenger seat

Then a blasco

and done

nothing hits you

[copper fulcrum]

Rarely will you get such a petty squad composition

Like, I've only ran into an instance where a vehicle was using APS systems to camp that was actually being a nuisance once
