battlefield-2042

[next onyx]

Zain has replaced Mackay for me. He is so damn good and ironically not as cheesy.

Yeah look at Halo infinite.

[shell ermine]

I'll just say that I had a lot more consistently enjoyable games during the week that crossplay was broken than any other time with 2042

[sour steeple]

Dude only less than 1% play like this. Majority m&K & console are basicly equal skilled.

[pine fossil]

anyone having massive crashes and issues sicne the update earlier? Been playing for 300ish hours with ZERO problems. Since today game is either crashing or blackscreening basically after every match

[next onyx]

My brain just works with the XM.

[vagrant basin]

Dude I wish you were from EU region or so so I could form a squad with you. Dem kills you get yikes

[next onyx]

EU would be funny.

Cause of the language barriers.

[sour steeple]

Just engl

[vagrant basin]

Oh yes

[next onyx]

Some guy sends hate mail at you going full French or German.

Yeah English is the universal language.

But someone gets so mad they speak in their native tongue.

And you get a clusterfuck of a message.

[vagrant basin]

oh yes russians are funny as well when mad

[shell ermine]

Omelete du fromage

[vagrant basin]

I mean I am belgian and my english accent sucks but everyone in my squad understands me so I guess that's good enough

[next onyx]

I'd love to play in EU with minimal ping but I can't.

So rip the dream.

Yeah.

[vagrant basin]

oh yeah rip

[frigid violet]

just move 🙂

[sick oracle]

one trophy off the platinum trophy on BF2042🎉🎉🎉

psn ithunderyt if you wanna see

[vagrant basin]

cause oceania's timezone is very difficult for me to play with

sadly

[next onyx]

Ping also makes it hell.

300 ping.

[vagrant basin]

cause I love Australia

oh yeah

[next onyx]

Barely can play because of server rejection.

[sour steeple]

Cant wait for all chat

Hackusations overload

[vagrant basin]

Are you from Australia by any chance Way?

[arctic grove]

dont u find all that junk at the top distracting?

[next onyx]

I barely notice it.

[arctic grove]

Why do u need anything other than fps anyway

[next onyx]

I need to know how much my hardware is being used up.

[arctic grove]

I see

i need to know why LOD is fucking with me all the time

[reef bough]

I use it as well just with different software

[arctic grove]

when theres like more than 10 players near me

[reef bough]

I do have toggle though

[vagrant basin]

Is it actually worth turning max graphics on, cause it looks really good on lowest settings as well. I mean my PC can handle max settings easy with no performance issues but yeah

extra fps always welcome

[next onyx]

I have a high medium mix and I get a nice consistent 140 to 165.

[reef bough]

Runs fine for me on high on intel gpu

I could lower it i guess to get up to my monitor hz

[vagrant basin]

I think I'm just gonna run it on max settings 1440p again I think

[next onyx]

And then the settings reset and you get 99% usage like reeeee.

[arctic grove]

whats at medium

post processing evidently

[vagrant basin]

oh dang yeah nvm then haha

[next onyx]

Anything that isn't mesh, textures uhhhh.... It's the first two settings on high with mesh on high, everything else a step down.

DLSS balance.

of quality.

Either way doesn't matter.

[reef bough]

FSR when, I can't use dlss

[arctic grove]

quality so it doesnt fuck with explosions and sprites too much

dlss pixelates sprites really bad

im gonna keep saying it

[frigid violet]

dlss makes everything blurry imo

luckily the game runs great on high

[next onyx]

I don't notice the blurriness but yeah.

[frigid violet]

TAA also makes things blurry

i hate taa

[next onyx]

I used to run everything on high but I like having a bit more frames cause that means my hardware isn't being super used up.

[arctic grove]

makes everything blurry and tries to compensate it with an overly strong sharpening filter

[next onyx]

I dunno. I like to swap between high and then that mix.

[frigid violet]

i want msaa back

[arctic grove]

also why does this game have forced taa

[frigid violet]

muh rendering pipeline

[arctic grove]

theres even a sub on reddit

[next onyx]

I've heard it's an engine thing.

[arctic grove]

fucktaa

[clever marlin]

well if it makes yall feel better

the game was running fine after i reinstalled the game

then the update happened and fucked with everything

ill see how the ea forum post goes

[arctic grove]

I need to check the performance after this update

but I got a key for the finals

[clever marlin]

it seems to be using 100% gpu and 50% cpu post update and post nvidia patch by the looks of it

[arctic grove]

gonna play that for a bit

[next onyx]

Have you checked your video settings Big?

[clever marlin]

yeah

i have everything at 1440p144

medium settings

no dlss

or rtx

i set the fps to 85 to help with temps

so its unlikely thats the issue

i saw deleting the igo64.dll file might help but

[formal gazelle]

do i still have to use a web browser to join games on 2042 or is there a inbuilt browser now

[clever marlin]

idk

[mental cave]

i don’t understand 🤔

so it flipped?

[clever marlin]

that was just on manifest so

[foggy birch]

koe

[clever marlin]

ymmv

[tiny onyx]

Hi, I am new here
yesterday i bought battlefield 2042 from steam
and it keeps showing "Connecting to EA Services"
and than it shows error "Unable to load persistent data"
I googled everything... applying solutions provided by multiple sources.... don't what happing wrong
can anyone help me... plz

don't know*

[crude sigil]

Maintenance

[still vault]

The browser joining was perfect #BringBackBattlelog

[crude sigil]

If it work, please tell us

[formal gazelle]

didnt work for me on BF3 so i only played like 3 games lul

so how do i join games now in 2042? like in cod?

[crude sigil]

No, worse

[still vault]

Battlelog worked perfectly fine once people unfucked their browsers 😄

[formal gazelle]

im just looking for a serach game function in the game lul

[tiny onyx]

I just checked battlefield 2042 server status at EA site... it showing Servers Online

[still vault]

2042 has a in-game client like most other games

[formal gazelle]

i used edge for that which i dont use at all so idk what the problem was

[crude sigil]

In the afternoon, I had the problem, but I turned off my device, so I don't know now.

[vagrant basin]

my game is connecting just fine

[clever marlin]

Welp. Deleting the file caused another crash

[vagrant basin]

i am in the main menu choosing my game mode

im on pc though

[crude sigil]

Is there anyone here whose Xbox is working?

[remote kiln]

interesting thought what if 2 Sundance players collide in mid air

[clever marlin]

Probably the same result if a superhind was crashed into a condor

[crude sigil]

thx

[jade brook]

Xbox servers up?

[crude sigil]

Not yet, I think

[jade brook]

They are just takin their sweet ass time today lol

The day I play hooky at work to geek out and it is t working 😡

Isn’t

[crude sigil]

[tiny onyx]

ok thnankyou

[hardy mortar]

hello people 👋

[dapper river]

every update

[paper finch]

anyone knows if Nvidia 531.29 fixed the crashes yet?
the original driver 531.18 caused some issues to some games but with bf2042 seem to caused extreme issues such as crashes. can anyone confirm if this fixed crash issue or is it still on going?

[low timber]

Well that’s a new bug, I got revived but I’m stuck to my knife and can’t even swing it.

[chilly jacinth]

should fix itself when you climb a ladder or use a zipline

[jade brook]

Sounds like this update put us a few steps backward -____

-__-*

[next gulch]

that's the DICE experience

[low timber]

Oh, luckily Stranded BT has two ladders and one zipline lol

Ladder no work

[chilly jacinth]

sad times

[low timber]

Zipline was at least interactable but nope

[chilly jacinth]

well damn

that fixed it for me in the past

[low timber]

Seems like my hit box is broken as well, I can see trough walls if I run into them

[next onyx]

Music also runs in the background.

In match.

[chilly jacinth]

youve ascended to a different plane of existence

[next gulch]

like as in minimizing the game, the music still plays?

[next onyx]

Nah when you've spawned.

[next gulch]

oh ok I was about to get triggered there

drives me nuts when game's don't mute themselves when minimized

[low timber]

Can’t even revive

[next gulch]

BF 2042 couldn't sync with the cloud........welp that's it guess it's all over then

[hardy mortar]

[jade brook]

Xbox servers are up n running 👍

Just got through

[cosmic sequoia]

It amazes me how many bugs are introduced into the game when a new “update” happens

Almost like, they don’t have a fucking QA team

And it’s so painstakingly obvious

[next gulch]

I'm half expecting the sound bug from the infiltration device to somehow not be fixed

[dusk falcon]

im still not getting in

[rigid ginkgo]

Hey, any help is appreciated. Does anybody know what's going why I can't unlock AC9 attachments even though reaching the mastery required?

[dusk falcon]

what server are u on @jade brook

what region

[still vault]

#direct-communication

[clever marlin]

So, game is still crashing

I’m 100% sure it’s a game issue at this point

That or it’s an issue with the EA app

[still vault]

Most likely not

[mental cave]

i hit the ~ key in a gun fight trying to switch to my primary and it opened the console and froze me in place

[still vault]

But if you have a proper thread on Answers HQ feel free to DM it to me and I'll take a look

[clever marlin]

I have

[arctic grove]

https://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield2042/comments/11r4nl5/crawfords_new_outfit_is/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x Any of you liking the new Andrew Tate Bundle??? Id buy it if the skin was universal to all specialists.

[clever marlin]

But being me, I sent it to the bug reports forum

Whops…

I didn’t see the other one when I was reporting because at the time I thought that was the only one

[mental cave]

reminded me of a cyberpunk jacket

[proud gorge]

Kinda goofy outfit for our favorite Canadian with a grapple hook gun

[arctic grove]

It was a CP2077 reference. Almost copy/paste of it.

[true rivet]

Now 1 h 30 for an update. 30 min to download 1.82 go (I play on EA play desktop) and 1 h for the application of the update and now again a verification that will take time (I have fiber, games and launcher on a SSD pc restart once just in case)

[mental cave]

i like the outfit but the rest of the skins are meh in the bundle

[still vault]

Soon I'll have all weapons unlocked and I can escape this LMG hell 😄

[proud gorge]

Just bully bots

Unlock quick

[naive quiver]

Rip bots

[clever marlin]

oh and the ea app no longer works

[proud gorge]

Speaking of bullying buts I need to level up the new LMG and Assault rifle

[clever marlin]

lovely

[still vault]

Unlocking using bots is silly and boring.

[proud gorge]

[proud gorge]

But a feature dice added

So

[clever marlin]

bots are nice for aim training

[cobalt tide]

Is there a work around?

[clever marlin]

and getting attachments

[clever marlin]

nope

i go to log in and the launcher straight up crashes

[still vault]

I will rather unlock things on real players than suffer the grind of bots

[true rivet]

Now 1 h 30 for an update. 30 min to download 1.82 go (I play on EA play desktop) and 1 h for the application of the update and now again a verification that will take time (I have fiber, games and launcher on a SSD pc restart once to check if it improves something, but no) !!!!!!!!!!!

[tired quest]

i hate all of you

[chilly jacinth]

30min to download?

thats some slow ass fiber

[crude juniper]

EA servers down or something, cant log in to my EA acc

[still vault]

Sound like the SSD might be a SATA one

[silver badger]

maybe its the client thats restricting the speed

[clever marlin]

same

man, this is why origin was so much better

[still vault]

can confirm

didn't do the network thing

[clever marlin]

beautiful

[mental cave]

all good for me, NA tho

[crude juniper]

EU here

[woven acorn]

they got rid of tank superiority

[still vault]

oh well, I can use the time to install the latest Nvidia driver that dropped today

[olive harness]

holy fuck ea

why cant we launch the game

[sturdy socket]

does it crash your game and bsod your pc like 531.18 does

[still vault]

This meme will fix everything

[woven acorn]

i swear im downloading a new nvidia update every time i launch my pc

[sturdy socket]

still infuriated that I went back two driver updates and it didn't fix

[olive harness]

there was a hotfix to that nvidia issue i thought

[mental cave]

you are, but this one has AI upscaling on youtube videos

[next gulch]

RIP Flashpoint playlist

[still vault]

this is most likely just the WHQL version of that hotfix

[next gulch]

but DICE ruined it anyways by switching it to 64 players

[still vault]

rotating playlists always ruin it for someone and saves it for someone else - it's in the nature of rotation

[clever marlin]

tbh, id love if conquest and breakthrough was seperated into two different tabs

like 64 and 128p modes

[olive harness]

do people like the season variants of conquest and breakthrough?

[clever marlin]

its alright

[olive harness]

cause its just those new maps right?

[mental cave]

yea

im fine with any map tbh never really cared. unless its discarded

[olive harness]

i do not like manifest

[clever marlin]

EA app is back online

[arctic grove]

Jet buffs?

[turbid veldt]

server still down? It doesn't seem to let me connect to any servers

[proud gorge]

Do that but for Boris

[proud gorge]

@arctic grove

[arctic grove]

Bf2042 free on playstation
Is it worth the space?

[proud gorge]

It’s fun

[formal gazelle]

how does the game start when i install it via steam still gotta go thru origin?

[arctic grove]

I've deleted Origin from my PC and haven't had any issues.

[formal gazelle]

nah i was just wondering if it forces you to use their launcher 🤷‍♂️

[turbid veldt]

it will soft start the EA app if ran on steam

[arctic grove]

I use Steam and the EA app

[fallen ocean]

See my post in #streams-and-videos to see this situation summed up perfectly

[chrome rivet]

is it still messed up for you? i just got this error

[rigid ginkgo]

Hey, any help is appreciated. Does anybody know what's going why I can't unlock AC9 attachments even though reaching the mastery required?

COD Warzone have cheaters.... BF2042 have bad servers... what should we play

[distant lance]

Something's up with our online services, but we're on it. In the meantime, you might not be able to connect to online modes, buy games, or log in to your account. We’ll get you back in your game as soon as we can.

Who are you?

Hacked by Aliens

[broken horizon]

"so that was a lie" moment

no but seriously can you guys get in now?

for me the game won't launch (steam)

[tiny onyx]

nope

[hexed reef]

My pus%# is itchy

[broken horizon]

that's classic

[tiny onyx]

it launches from steam... but EA App is not clearing the path

yea it shows up for a sec and then nothing happens

guess gotta wait

if you try to login from EA App.. it says login didn't go as planned

another tweet?

[turbid drum]

In the middle of the free to play- and discount period! aj aj aj aj!

[acoustic scarab]

is there a fix for the black loading screen freeze?

[chrome rivet]

mine started working again like 5 min ago

update is taking ages tho

[fierce gull]

man I was gonna play some battlefield

[broken horizon]

nah not yet, this bug was introduced way back and still havent got fixed

[turbid drum]

Me and my friend got like 10 people to download BF last night for some sweet gaming tonight but it all went to 💩

[tiny onyx]

Developers are dumb

[clever marlin]

Ok, so it appears windows has a corrupt file

[broken horizon]

there is something which is stoping them i would say

[turbid drum]

That prevents EA App for working?

[clever marlin]

No

That’s a server issue on eas end

[woven acorn]

i guess considering im already in-game I shouldn't leave then if the ea servers aren't working

[chrome rivet]

i thought it was ea app that wasnt working instead of the game itself?

[woven acorn]

it is i think

[turbid drum]

Yes, EA App is wonky but game runs fine for people in it

[woven acorn]

im saying if the ea app is down, i should stay in my game because if i close it the ea app might not work again

[acoustic scarab]

i get to play one game then the next map gives the black screen of bugs, GL

[chrome rivet]

did anything even get added in this 18gb update?

[woven acorn]

wasn't it just a 1.5 gb update?

[chrome rivet]

not for me lol

[lucid goblet]

wasn't 18gb, was 1.8gb roughly

[chrome rivet]

was 18gb for me -____-

[woven acorn]

specialists tweaks, gun and gadget tweaks

[limpid pond]

I'm about to ruin all yalls day by being a giga Chad

[lucid goblet]

yeah it did a file check of 18gb,but then DL's and patched 1.8gb

[next onyx]

Servers have a stroke.

[woven acorn]

health regen changes, repair tool changes

[tiny onyx]

2 GB

[limpid pond]

Giga Chad moment

[tiny onyx]

on Steam

[chrome rivet]

well either way it tooook wayyyyyy to long took like 30min to install it ... it shouldve taken me 2

[lucid goblet]

patch notes are here: https://t.co/KoblD3MbAT

[night sleet]

is the game down for anybody?

[chrome rivet]

and the annoying loading screen bug is still a thing 😦

[silver lantern]

tdm is pretty fun

good way to level up guns

[lucid goblet]

yeah servers have borked again

[night sleet]

damn

was having fun with rush xl

[shrewd elm]

Lol. Well you can't blame them, they are a very tiny indie studio with not many developers and hardly any money

[night sleet]

well influx of playstation players is probably not helping either

[chrome rivet]

at this point i think they got downgraded to a 3 man work force

[silver lantern]

i love the am40

[lucid goblet]

f2p for 3 days on steam also lol

[night sleet]

[chrome rivet]

ou

[acoustic scarab]

how bad/how easy is it for them is the controllers auto aim on crossplay ?

[chrome rivet]

finally after a hour of trying to log in and update ...im in

why the game isn't working on steam

[open hamlet]

I need more Battlefield friends 🤦🏽‍♂️ can’t be putting in the important work in the field by myself

[shrewd elm]

Thanks!

[night sleet]

compared to when i got the game on launch, im having actual fun

[mossy stream]

Nah I'm not gonna be salty. Shit happens and the game is actually a lot better then it was on release

[ashen cipher]

ugh

[mossy stream]

Agreed

[arctic grove]

rush XL is back this week?

[night sleet]

y

[mossy stream]

it is

[open hamlet]

I heard the maps stayed huge no matter what game mode you played. That true?

When it released

[shrewd elm]

Agreed - the game is a lot better now. We went through this entire cycle with almost every title. People are quick to forget

[mossy stream]

I actually got in a couple of minutes ago but could not get a game started

[ashen cipher]

agree 100%

[chrome rivet]

i still feel like the game doesnt have enough content ... like enough for the launch but not a 2yearold game

[night sleet]

gonna be honest i didnt touch the game after i played it for 5 hours after launch

until like 2 month ago

[acoustic scarab]

it is only a deathmatch shooter game they usually have little content

[chrome rivet]

bfv and bf1 had a bunch

[open hamlet]

I just started a couple weeks ago, I’m a BF3 vet so I got back in the roots real quick

[mossy stream]

But to this extent? I'm not sure... but so I've felt that BF changed from what made it good with BF1. To much Battlefront for me

[night sleet]

bfv

[chrome rivet]

this game only has 2 tank types

[open hamlet]

I was a Col. Rank 15 on PS3 last I checked

[night sleet]

you wanna bring up bfv

xd

[chrome rivet]

bfv was soooo good

[wide shore]

Every time and twice on Sundays.

[open hamlet]

I heard BFV is dope, my cousin was playing it nonstop but I wasn’t sure I wanted to

[night sleet]

[shut tendon]

anyone else not able to get on ea app? pc

[silver lantern]

whats wrong with exposure

[frank sequoia]

Sup battlebro’s

[silver lantern]

its pretty good

[wide shore]

Everything

[open hamlet]

My cousin put me on to Battlefield and once I got on BF3 it was my main 3 games

[magic token]

was just about to ask

[mossy stream]

BFV was not my cup. I loved the BF2 slow style of a game

[frank sequoia]

I like Exposure’s nature elements, being with the trees is dope I’d say

[silver lantern]

anyone excited for the hourglass remake

[chrome rivet]

there a problem with the app

[night sleet]

@wide shore i would atleast drop to my death on that map just to leave for fun

[shrewd elm]

BF4 didn't take this much time to get to a good state (I'm sure it was just over a year), but I definitely remember the launch being more unplayable with more bugs

[silver lantern]

i hope after theyre done remaking the base maps

[inner nacelle]

explains a lot

[acoustic scarab]

Bf3 was fun but they ruined it by making more version after that

[silver lantern]

they can now do 2 maps per season

[wide shore]

I don’t even want to be present in it. Sick of it. I don’t like it and yet I get it constantly.

[open hamlet]

Did they really? I wouldn’t know cause I wasn’t knee deep into their development. I was kinda forced to level up and play according to environment

[frank sequoia]

Imagine if Siege of Shanghai returned. Holy cow that could be great

[open hamlet]

Once I started playing, majority of my lobbies were full of Col ranks

[magic token]

Always a problem when i want to play this game!

[open hamlet]

Meanwhile my teams were hardly even Col ranks

[mossy stream]

Oh yeah I do remember. But then it gained it's ground pretty fast and got a lot of content.

[wide shore]

How about a good map like Seine or something

[turbid drum]

shakes in nostalgia

[acoustic scarab]

yeah the games (BF4, BF5 , BF1) went downhill after BF3 they climaxed then were out of steam

[shrewd elm]

True! We did get a lot of good DLC

[open hamlet]

Honestly, BF4 felt too different from BF3

[chrome rivet]

is that the one with the skyscraper that collapsed in bf4?

[wide shore]

Yeah they sold tons of DLC before the game was even playable for some people

[open hamlet]

I hate the story mode though, it was too quick

[wide shore]

Good job DICE

[mossy stream]

As much as I like BF2042 now I just can't grasp how we got to this lack of content we have nowdays.

[acoustic scarab]

EA have a 💩 reputation for a reason

[chrome rivet]

fr

[open hamlet]

BF2042 would make sense if they stuck with the BF3’s era of soldiers with the same equipment we have for our soldiers rn, but with US, RU, and No-Pat uniforms

[chrome rivet]

i honestly loved ea games and still do

[mossy stream]

They do

[turbid drum]

Well, DICE Stockholm is no longer lead developer on the next BF-installment, Ripple Effect in LA is. They are they one's that made BF4 as good it was. David Sirland, which was head of DICE LA (at the time they fixed BF4), is now Battlefield Lead Producer. It has to be a success...!

[open hamlet]

Just my opinion

[wind vault]

log in FIXED !!

[acoustic scarab]

mine is still dead and it says i have no games

[crude juniper]

nop im in EU cant log in for 2 h now

[turbid drum]

Can confirm EDIT: 2042 is not showing in library :<

[arctic grove]

2042 failed to meet expectations so it’s being given what it needs to fly under the radar

Also developing new maps for both next and last gen of consoles delayed map dev time

• map reworks on top of those factors

[copper fulcrum]

and it still manages to have more content than the other two shooters on the market, Halo and CoD

[mossy stream]

Yeah probably. I was so hoping for Portal to be like a vault where previous content would go and revisit the latest BF game. But we never got any more maps to it and now... well it's not dead but it get's zero attention from the devs

[turbid drum]

ℹ️ 2042 is now updating after login was successful

[arctic grove]

Specialists were for the moners

Which is weird because No-Pats in lore didn’t really justify them but I’m always talking about that so rhrhggbgh

[chrome rivet]

cod is just pumping out quantity imo and halo... we dont talk about that

[acoustic scarab]

EA does the same

[frank sequoia]

yes

[arctic grove]

Yea same. It would’ve been cool to see portal get more maps, could just run some ordinary BF3 conquest on a classic BF3 map or something

[chrome rivet]

what game is being pumped out for quantity by ea?

[silver lantern]

i wouldnt mind the specialists if they had more lore or voice lines to them like the apex legends

[magic token]

They tweet "All good now" and it's not working.....no wonder they have a bad rep

[arctic grove]

Which is weird because both battlefield and CoD have done good live service (at least when it was done) like MW19 and BFV so idek

[broken horizon]

nah they dont put money in that

[mossy stream]

Holy frogman I tried Warzone and just going into the menu was enough to get me to quit it

[arctic grove]

War zone isn’t for me, hate the idea of anything where I can lose my stuff and have to start all over

You can imagine how I feel about something like rust

[wide shore]

Idk if I’d say BFV’s live service was good. It was fine towards the end but it certainly wasn’t good

[copper fulcrum]

Oh yeah the menus for CoD are worse than trying to find a movie on Hulu

EVERYTHING IS A SUBMENU

[acoustic scarab]

SIMs , BF4-5-1-2042, ALL the FIFA's , etc

[silver lantern]

bf1 was great

that shit was quality

[chrome rivet]

sims and fifa yea... but BF games????

[silver lantern]

mmm i love me some bf1

[wide shore]

It went lonnngggg stretches without new content. Only dropped 1 map here and there until the pacific. It really wasn’t much of a live service game. But it was their first attempt so it’s easy to dismiss

[arctic grove]

Ye I know, in the parenthesis I added when it was done, like from my perspective (since I didn’t play the game till 2021) going into BFV had a lot of content but I heard it was dripfed. I think what I mean to say is they’ve executed the content well in those games using the same service model

[mossy stream]

I was like, whelp! where do I go?!

[spiral folio]

I didnt buy anything from modern bf cash shops

P4f and heroes sure

Cause there's no buy in

[mossy stream]

Well I could log in but there is nothing there

[chrome rivet]

buying things from bf shops never seemed worth it for me except that one op bomber in bf1

[arctic grove]

Whereas with 2042 and MW2 they’re just cursed with what they’re providing

[broken horizon]

can u get in ?

[hard geyser]

What playlist are active right now? Anything fun

[arctic grove]

That game is dope yeah, really liked a lot of the DLC maps tbh

Lmao we get seasons breakthrough for the second week in a row.

[mossy stream]

And for the 100124241 time it asks me to verify my Microsoft account. I don't even have gamepass. It's like the app has dementia, it always logs me out and ask me the same questions everytime.

[lucid goblet]

Log-in does seem to be working atm

[arctic grove]

Very well done dice, excellent

[mossy stream]

Maybe a cache issue

[arctic grove]

For the love of GOD just give us exodus breakthrough

[frank sequoia]

make sure everybody disables their xbox overlay

[wintry raven]

anyone else having the problem that bf2042 is just not starting via steam?

[vagrant basin]

Is the game server fucking down again???? I just played for an hour and now I can't join anymore

[frank sequoia]

ima repeat it everyday, shit fixed my bf entirely

[acoustic scarab]

me

[vagrant basin]

man these EA servers are trash af

[wide shore]

The pacific is what we should get/expect from new seasons. It was still dripfed a bit, as it launches with 2/4 maps and the other two came later. But it all felt like one big DLC. Something that hasn’t been done yet with 2042 and likely won’t ever.

It’s definitely not due to lack of money. Cause these fools have done day one dlc before. And I reckon their current monetization methods get them the same amount of funds as the paid dlc.

It’s just their ability to get away with including less. Which we shouldn’t really be okay with.

[round relic]

its not letting me launch the game any issues

[arctic grove]

Yep exactly

[frank sequoia]

big stormy water maps would be dope in 2042

[chrome rivet]

game breaks once in a while everyone- " these servers are so trash"

[vagrant basin]

can't launch it either shit is broken af this makes me mad af too. Had this for multiple times

[arctic grove]

Does anyone else thing the attack choppers are especially bad compared the their counterpart nightbird and stealth heli?

[clever marlin]

mindset of every 12 year old or immature adult playing this game

[mossy stream]

Yes

[wintry raven]

i just want to play and its not starting

[lucid goblet]

[arctic grove]

I feel personally like the problem isn’t so much as people as it is corporate greed that constantly tests the water as to how far they can go, and since they know we don’t wanna put down our favorite franchises even if they’re turning to shit they just keep going, which is when we get broken games and bad post launch support

[round relic]

i just got my joystick i wanna use it manee 😭

[vagrant basin]

I feel you I wanna play too. Wish they would do something about this

[acoustic scarab]

it seems like it might be time to call it a day/night and come back

[arctic grove]

Like yea it could be fixed if people just put the games down but something like EA is so massive that you’d need millions of people collectively to stop playing their studios games

I feel like the attack choppers should be the most feared air vehicles and they're nothing more than a hiccup. It's such a shame.

[still vault]

add the emoji to this server plz 😄

[chrome rivet]

alot people cant fly helis good so they dont use it

[acoustic scarab]

you need a controller for them, mouse and keys controls always sucked

[mossy stream]

It's interesting the app does not recognize games that are installed... like it's local?

[vagrant basin]

heli's are easy to fly, dodging missiles however is an other thing

even with mnk

[chrome rivet]

i cant grasp the controlls and theres no tutorial from what ive seen

[arctic grove]

The nightbird can dodge anything and the stealth heli avoids lockons. The attack choppers have the same durability as a nightbird for AA missles? Wtf is that?

[lucid goblet]

Done

[arctic grove]

I’d suggest you try flying them in solo/co-op then

Bots won’t give you nearly as hard of a time in most ways although they’re recoilless snipers

[vagrant basin]

you would be surprised

how accurate these bots are

[frank sequoia]

help fellas, im 'd down and need air support

[vagrant basin]

even on easy difficulty

[arctic grove]

@arctic grove nothing enrages me more than the M5 spam from bots; they're insane

honestly flying against beginner bots is harder than flying against people.

[vagrant basin]

true

[mossy stream]

OKAY GIRLS & GUYS! If you get in and don't have any games. Make sure to do a app recovery. That worked for me

[arctic grove]

True

[olive bramble]

anyone having low fps?

[chrome rivet]

i did ... and i still crashed constantly and took like 3min to get a new heli

[chrome rivet]

nop

[arctic grove]

Oh yeah I think the respawn time on vehicles should be reduced

1:30 is criminal in general, and doesn’t even make sense for solo/co-op anyways

[vagrant basin]

a lot of stuff doesn't make sense in this co op / solo mode vs bots

can't customize a single thing either about the experience

[arctic grove]

I hate how the bots will steal the jets and choppers in bots :/. I feel like you should always be able to spawn on them

[vagrant basin]

only difficulty of the bots but on beginner they are more skilled than the average bf2042 player

[arctic grove]

You have to use portal to be able to practice at all but you can't unlock any attachments in portal vs bots

I think you can override the bots in vehicles on it but I can’t be sure

[acoustic scarab]

it seems that maybe all EA games login is possibly disabled while they fix it. the Sims wont even work 😉

[arctic grove]

Every time I check the slots are open

[chrome rivet]

can you use portal to make vehicle respawn times 0?

[arctic grove]

Yeah

[turbid drum]

If you manage to log in but the game is not in your library - start it via .exe in the game directory

[chrome rivet]

ye but somtimes they dont want to give seat

[arctic grove]

I have a vehicle server I madce

[sullen rose]

Is anyone having issues with 2042 not starting from Steam or anywhere else?

[lucid goblet]

yes, it's one of the modifiers

[arctic grove]

Removed the fucking M5 and wildcat lmao.

Bots wayy too good with those

[chrome rivet]

i will try that thanks

[wintry raven]

yes

[acoustic scarab]

none of my EA games are launching from steam

[lucid goblet]

[vagrant basin]

I'm sorry to say this but EA really messed up with their connectivity issues. This is just getting ridiculous

[next gulch]

noooo issues here because I have an ALIENWARE

[shrewd elm]

Cut em some slack. They're a very new indie development team with very little money for this sort of thing.

[vagrant basin]

every other game that is not from EA i can always just launch just fine without issues

[acoustic scarab]

begone salesman

[mossy stream]

Need to update first though (if BF2042)

[arctic grove]

Just downloaded playing for the first time

[spiral folio]

Duude you're getting a Dell

[sullen rose]

Everytime I see that with every 2042 updates they are better yet far away from what it used to be.. like BF1 and BF3, BF5..

[vagrant basin]

I had an alienware laptop once. NEVER AGAIN. Piece of garbage.

[next gulch]

ehhh I wouldn't go THAT far, BFV updates were also cringe

[acoustic scarab]

by the time they fix 2042 they will have a new version of battlefield out

[spiral folio]

My brother had this m11x which was a cool little laptop but the hinge broke to the screen

Neat concept though

A 11" gaming pc

[turbid drum]

hype man hope you enjoy ✌️

[arctic grove]

Did anyone hear about the 4chan leak>?

[placid echo]

Well at least I got in

[mossy stream]

Ah.... download rate is hyper fast right now! 6 KB/s. It would be faster to send me USB stick with the update with a dove

[next gulch]

yes next BF CONFIRMED to have cat ear helmets I saw the leak

[acoustic scarab]

it is going to be a futuristic battlefield like a copy of planetside 2, hush hush

[sullen rose]

I wish they can remake 5 but with New Maps like Normandy.
That would be a dope Breakthrough

[mossy stream]

Battlefield 2143

[arctic grove]

Hope not

[spiral folio]

If the next bf goes future I'll take a break

[arctic grove]

same

[mossy stream]

I miss Titan mode though

[gusty robin]

Got a dope portal game , 2042 vs battlefield 3 era
NATO Vs Future Warfare
Code is AA7cp4 hope y’all join

[spiral folio]

Near future is bad enough

Far future is just balancing hell

[arctic grove]

sounds like a generic portal server #482473

[gusty robin]

What do you mean

[spiral folio]

Like think of specialist gadgets 100 years more advanced

[gusty robin]

^

[arctic grove]

I mean that its not very special

[placid echo]

Just letting you know that the experience code is to host the server, not to join it.

[gusty robin]

I just got the game from ps plus and saw that you can make ur custom game , I edited the settings and vehicles to make it match

[acoustic scarab]

can you put a server up and play on it -with bots- with boosted exp?

[gusty robin]

There’s alot of those already

[spiral folio]

A paik that can go through walls
Mackay with a portal gun
Boris turrets that can aim

[calm bison]

2042 servers and not working. Name a more iconic duo

[vagrant basin]

I can access the EA app but I can't see my library

wtf

my profile says I don't have any games yet

[spiral folio]

They found out you're a normie non gamer

[chilly jacinth]

the EA servers are fucked right now

[vagrant basin]

Blast, they got me

[spice wharf]

Does anyone kno what the update was for?

[bleak tide]

updating stuff

[spiral folio]

Purging the unworthy

[spice wharf]

😅

[vagrant basin]

Legit

[mossy stream]

Make a app recovery, that worked for me

Hamburger menu > help > App recovery

[copper ice]

far future is actually easier to balance because the weapons and vehiclez and maps dont have to fit irl at all

[bleak tide]

same thing is happening with sims 4 right now

[vagrant basin]

Thanks worked for me as well. 🙂

[rain glacier]

does anyone have issues on opening battlefield 2042 on steam

i cant get it to open

[vagrant basin]

nobody can normally

[rain glacier]

i played it once when first downloaded

[vagrant basin]

connectivity issues from EA's side

[rain glacier]

and doesnt open again

should I just wait a while?

[normal stratus]

sadly yes

[vagrant basin]

it'll probably take a few minutes maybe even an hour or two

[rain glacier]

oh ok

[vagrant basin]

cause this seems big as more games are affected

[normal stratus]

not a very good promo for the game during the free days and trying to lure back people to it

[still vault]

[spiral folio]

Its probably because of the huge influx of people that there are connection issues

[mental cave]

[broken horizon]

bro i literally restarted my pc for this

[vagrant basin]

Boycott EA

[spiral folio]

Its like giving out free pizza
So people bitch about the parking

[placid echo]

Well that's funny. I started up 2042 and EA App is telling me that I can install the Sims 4 now

[vagrant basin]

lmao

[still vault]

it's not wrong

[acoustic scarab]

sims can be fun

[mental cave]

install it

[rain glacier]

u can download csgo 2 while u wait

the update is out

[mental cave]

EA has a headache
"I wanna play 2042"
".... just!...go play sims or something and leave dad alone"

[broken horizon]

are other games working?

bf1 bf4

[drowsy shuttle]

why do people bought the game on Origin/EA app? i don't understand

[rain glacier]

i downloaded on steam but im still forced to use EA app

[acoustic scarab]

the game is LOADING FOR MEEEE

[normal stratus]

even if I bought it on steam I'm forced through that garbage

[rain glacier]

true it is garbage

[drowsy shuttle]

yeah i know but like, you don't even need to login into the EA App when launching the game from steam

[rain glacier]

i got on steam for reason but ight

[broken horizon]

everyone is competing with steam as a game launcher smh

[acoustic scarab]

the game seems to be back now for steam

[spiral folio]

I bought on origin before it was on steam so thankfully i only have one launcher to launch a game

Instead of a laincher to launch a launcher to launch the game. All 3 of which need updates steam being the worst offender of "constantly updating"

[ashen cipher]

the game is working now

for me

[drowsy shuttle]

Activision have a lot of issues and might be a shady company, but at least for the new Cod Mw2 if you bought the game on Steam doesn't force you to use their app, Battle.net

kudos for them on that

[spiral folio]

A shady company connected with tencent

[drowsy shuttle]

im not defending activision, but on that matter they did well..

[spice wharf]

…….

[spiral folio]

Yes nobody was smiling but the trains were on time

[spice wharf]

Really don’t kno who’s worst at this point. Activation or DICE

[sick oracle]

i got the platinum on bf2042

just na w

now*

[drowsy shuttle]

platinum?

[sick oracle]

trophy

[spice wharf]

PS trophy

[spiral hound]

Battlefield platinum

nice stand name

[drowsy shuttle]

no idea what that is, but i see is a console thing

[spice wharf]

Yes

[sick oracle]

it’s basically the steam achievement equivalent

[spice wharf]

Consoles unite

[spiral hound]

Battlefield Platinum! The Operation Metro!

[drowsy shuttle]

i wanna say to all console players, thank you for your service

[spiral hound]

woosh wiish

[spiral folio]

BF1 Heroes next

[vagrant basin]

So if I buy the ultimate edition on PS5 I can have my progress on both devices?

cause i got the ultimate edition on pc

[sick oracle]

the ps plus players made the bf platinum really easy

[spiral folio]

A zany wacky take on the harrows of ww1

[next onyx]

It's limited to the device you bought it for.

[vagrant basin]

ah okay

[next onyx]

I don't have my console pre order bonuses.

[pastel loom]

honestly I played the game once only on plus
not that happy with local servers being dead

[vagrant basin]

I see, thanks for the info

[spice wharf]

What’s the cheapest PC I can get?

[spiral folio]

If they made a battlefield heroes version of Rivetwars I'd buy the hell out of it

[vagrant basin]

Honestly just build a PC you can let a store choose your parts and setup a budget for yourself

[drowsy shuttle]

the sound bug from juanita's jammer is fixed?

[spice wharf]

Right….🥸

[vagrant basin]

so you don't spend unnecessary money for unnecessary things

[spice wharf]

Ngl sounds like rocket science

I have no idea on how to build a PC 😂😂

[vagrant basin]

Do you have a computer store close to home?

[spice wharf]

Yea

[vagrant basin]

Like someone who repairs and builds pc's

[drowsy shuttle]

you need an hammer and a few nails

[vagrant basin]

I would go and ask if they can build game pc's

And then you just tell them your budget that you wanna spend

and they'll take the parts and build it

[rain glacier]

its actuaally working now

[spice wharf]

Hmm cool

[vagrant basin]

and you'll have the perfect PC for your budget

i let my pc get build as well

no complaints

[arctic grove]

reddit is down now too

[vagrant basin]

i can hop on bf2042 again finally

[drowsy shuttle]

internet is falling apart... the apocalypse is upon us

[arctic grove]

I'm going to be 110% straight with you guys. Building a PC is super easy and will save you a lot of money.

[vagrant basin]

To be honest if you ain't got any knowledge of it its pretty difficult especially with liquid cooling

[drowsy shuttle]

exactçu

exactly

[arctic grove]

Youtube videos exist.

[drowsy shuttle]

its super easy for people who know

[vagrant basin]

I got my PC build by some local store and they didn't ask much to build the PC so I'm good with it

[zinc nest]

Is there not a way to get an admin to remove someone from VC that keeps following me and my Squad mate?

[drowsy shuttle]

Ah voice channel

[rain glacier]

how long does it take to find a match

it says 1/128 in lobby

[drowsy shuttle]

I dig the miami vice skin for crawford... its just in the wrong game. But would be great for cyberpunk 2077

[placid echo]

I like it but I don't like playing as Crawford

[copper ice]

few people do

[vocal tusk]

Dont really see how its in the wrong game. Its just combat boots, jeans, a t-shirt and a jacket.

[drowsy shuttle]

People who play crawford is just for the skins

[vocal tusk]

Damn, they made it partially purple...Illegal!!!

[drowsy shuttle]

Lol ok buddy

[vocal tusk]

😆

What about this skin is in the wrong game?

[raw ice]

the fact that its on crawford

[rain glacier]

im kinda confused how 2042 works

[vocal tusk]

British dudes dont wear t-shirts, got it lol

[rain glacier]

are the servers still down

is that why all servers aare empty

[raw ice]

no, crawford just sucks

[mental cave]

most likely

[rain glacier]

or people just dont play

[vocal tusk]

EA app is recovering from an outage.

[still vault]

need a bot to post this like every 5 minutes 😄

[tiny onyx]

Ask ChatGPT

[still vault]

I can make it without, but the issue would be fixed before I got it made, hosted and approved by the admins so nope

also, there's the "can't be arsed" argument

[naive quiver]

Rip world war 3

[patent path]

lmao

F2P game failing to keep its players

[tough epoch]

hi everyone !...
anyone knows why am i getting all the battle passes for free?... is it because i pre ordered the ultimate edition ?

[naive quiver]

The season one has finished two weeks ago still not get any new season update yet

Lack of content

[naive quiver]

Yes if you purchased the ultimate edition before you will get one year free battle pass

[drowsy shuttle]

Its f2p for a reason

[tough epoch]

so that means i'll get even the next battle pass?

for free

?

[woeful python]

lol I forgot about that game the "battlefield killer"

[patent path]

next one is probably "year 2" content so no

[tough epoch]

ah

[patent path]

if they still count it as year 1 content then yes

[tough epoch]

each season i just played 1 game

so i didnt complete any of the battle passes 😭

but i was wondering why do i keep on getting them for free

well... ty for the help !

[vagrant basin]

Does anyone know when season 4 ends

[drowsy shuttle]

2 months more or less

[vagrant basin]

Cause i want to reach battlepass level 100 but im still in the 60s

Oh dang I hope ill get there

[drowsy shuttle]

Pretty easily

[vagrant basin]

It goes so slow without xp boost

[drowsy shuttle]

Even if you played only on tuesdays for the weekly missions you would reach lvl 100 easily

[vagrant basin]

Oh okay nice

[next gulch]

just had a spearhead round where we all capped them and gave them a ferocious beating, free weekend taking effect

[placid echo]

There are 14 weeks of Season 4

And the missions really help out, I got all of this in my recent match

[next gulch]

most lopsided round I've ever played so far in 2042

[vagrant basin]

Yeah missions are not that difficult

[drowsy shuttle]

You can do the missions in 3, 4 matches easily

[round relic]

is game working now ?

[drowsy shuttle]

Im on pc so yeah

[vagrant basin]

I cant unlock the bonus mission though

[arctic grove]

Ro any1 ?

[next gulch]

Battle pass missions are the only things that get me to revive

Actually started to enjoy it a little bit, not that much though

For some reason, giving ammo to people in this game feels like shit. They’re not highlighted enough and basically no one asks for ammo.

[wooden briar]

Valparaiso map is once again the worst

Season 4 is final season I guess

[drowsy shuttle]

Its not

[drowsy shuttle]

Not anytime soon

Probably season 5

[wooden briar]

Omg

@lucid gobletAyy, welcome to the Dozer T1 Club!

I saw your tweet before you deleted it.

[lucid goblet]

Thanks!! i had to redo the tweet as the clip fucked up lol

[next gulch]

most exclusive club I bet

[silk surge]

Yeah I saw 😄 It was a weird 1 second loop.

Dozer T1 Badge is my proudest achievement in this game. It even outranks the Seasonal T1s.

[lucid goblet]

yeah he's the most frustrating one so far, just got crawford to do now though

[stoic ferry]

you done with lizz?

[lucid goblet]

yup

just crawford left to go

[stoic ferry]

I am working with crawford now since I do the T1 on classes too. only enigneer left.

the recon t1 badge was to ez with the rush xl last season 😄

[naive quiver]

Logitech g or steelseries for headset and mice

[stoic ferry]

both are good but logitech is super good with wireless stuff

I use them myself

[naive quiver]

How about razer

[drowsy shuttle]

People who t1 dozer are absolutely mad lads

[naive quiver]

[stoic ferry]

did him 1 year ago, back when ppl had no idea 😄

BT, smoke and go ham

[drowsy shuttle]

I will never t1 dozer.. actually i think i only played with dozer once for weekly missions

[wooden briar]

Nice mcom bugged

[stoic ferry]

back in the days you had 128bt. you chould get 10 in a round and you might get 40-50

[wooden briar]

The perfect state of this game

[stoic ferry]

he is fun

but not the most fun 😄

sundance back in the day was so FING hard.

hardest to do. I not sure now. seems more ez now

[sonic grove]

Anyone still having the issue where you can't equip repair system om brawler? Everything unlocked ps4

[stoic ferry]

strange. no. I use the active protection tho

i can try on pc

like you cant in menu=

[sonic grove]

My friend is having problems with it, though like you, he prefers the active

[wooden briar]

I wish I could join squad when Im the only one in a squad

Well not in this game

[stoic ferry]

ill check on pc

[wooden briar]

They have the audacity to sell it for 60 bucks still

[chrome rivet]

just buy on sales lol cod does the same thing

[stoic ferry]

seems I can in menu. ill test it ingame. never seen anyone talk about any bugs with that so might be a fluke

[sonic grove]

I wish I could boot afk gunners from my mav

[arctic grove]

What do y'all think is the hardest T1 skin to get in the game?

[wooden briar]

Well bf5 went down quick and it was miles away from this game

[still vault]

I believe EU marketing law forces them to have the game at 60 because then otherwise the sales wont actually be sales.

If things are always on sale then it's not really a sale now is it

[stoic ferry]

rush xl is to fun :/

[wooden briar]

Drop a price and then 50% off on sale

[stoic ferry]

and HOW did the game have a S999 (legit one) after 1 year 😄

i have 1400h and i play alot. dude got 3500

[chrome rivet]

what is t1

[stoic ferry]

im a misely s260

[wooden briar]

Hourglass next mcom is 500 m away

What am I playing, armored kill?

That was bf3

[stoic ferry]

tier 1

[drowsy shuttle]

Probably dozer in terms of skill... time consuming that would take 5 years is boris because dice dunno what they are doing

[gaunt spear]

Can’t play tonight ?

Wtf

[spiral folio]

Cant even make kids walk irl let alone 500m in a game

[stoic ferry]

dozer and sundance. or lizz

[gaunt spear]

“Wrong version”

[stoic ferry]

how someone got 400 with her is beyond me.

[gaunt spear]

Game doesn’t have updates on list

Anyone can help?

[stoic ferry]

what platform

[arctic grove]

I feel like lis is near impossible.

[stoic ferry]

BT, smoke

you will die. alot. but you will also get tons of kills

[chrome rivet]

what is tier 1

[stoic ferry]

tier 1 is a mastery system. kills. or other things

[chrome rivet]

o

[stoic ferry]

t1 is " best " and you get skin

black and red

on most guns its like 1200 kills

[silk surge]

All of them.

[spiral folio]

Mastery*

[stoic ferry]

on other things it can be anything between 400 and 6000 something

[spiral folio]

Rank is xp gathered not skill level too

[stoic ferry]

brawler seem to be ez to get since you can spawn outside of it. so it runs up faster

[drowsy shuttle]

Or 60.000 damage with boris sentry 😂

[stoic ferry]

that was surprisingly ez to do back in the day. since it worked in smoke

[silk surge]

Time spent on the game probably correlates to being more experienced too.

[spiral folio]

Yea but like
60k xp in 1 battle is different than 60k xp in 600000 battles

[turbid geode]

has anyone else noticed that the M5 rocket launcher doesn't really have a trail anymore for it's rockets?

[stoic ferry]

so if you placed it at a good place and trow smoke on it. you whould get kill ssuper ez

[next gulch]

man am I doing so good today, It's prolly because of the free weekend but I'm gonna act like I'm a sweaty sweat

[arctic grove]

Can't believe 2042 is free to play right after I bought and refunded the game twice

could've just waited

[chrome rivet]

its not permanent right..?

[stoic ferry]

no

[drowsy shuttle]

I cant believe you bought the game twice and refunded it twice

[next gulch]

It's free* on EA Play/Gamepass/Playstation Plus

[turbid geode]

[stoic ferry]

this dude. is crazy

[chrome rivet]

subscriptions arent really free lol

[spiral folio]

There's more good people at higher ranks than low ranks. But rank isnt an indicator of skill

Since all it takes is xp and you cant lose it

[next gulch]

Gamepass isn't free, but come on why don't you already have gamepass

[chrome rivet]

i get it for like £2.5 every month or £1 when theres a discount

[robust zodiac]

is there some issue with origin? First i couldn't login and now its tells me there is an update and it seemls like its reloading the entire game?! "update size" 75 gb...

[turbid geode]

why did they reduce the trail time of rockets?

[chrome rivet]

op= buff time

[stoic ferry]

to ez to get away from them?

faster rockets is better

[chrome rivet]

nah slow ones were perfect for meh

[turbid geode]

I mean the trail that rockets leave behind disappear almost instantly now

can't tell where rockets are being fired from anymore

and the M5 is faster now

[chrome rivet]

m5 is stupid op imo

[stoic ferry]

vs what?

takes 4 hits to kill a tank

[chrome rivet]

vs me

[spiral folio]

4ish usually 5 or 6

[turbid geode]

the M5 rocket is faster now and leaves no trail

[stoic ferry]

well. that will not happen alot.

[past pivot]

nvidia

[spiral folio]

They run on clean burnin propane ah tell you hwat

[stoic ferry]

try shooting them down before the big man with the big rocket fires at you 😄

[drowsy shuttle]

Lmao

[turbid geode]

also the SPH does more damage against tanks now?

[stoic ferry]

no ?

i can finish a tank but it does like 5 dmg.

having last shoot on MAV with 5 in it is sexy

with SPH

[wooden briar]

They couldnt add rush xl during 2xp?

[turbid geode]

why can you spawn on a squad mate that got stuck by a SPH?

[fervent rose]

why can you shoot a sticky grenade at infantry in the first place

[drowsy shuttle]

Because ita fun

[fervent rose]

the Halo plasma grenade that shoots 50m with no drop at high velocity is just obnoxious

airburst and sph have made this game worse

[drowsy shuttle]

Bale

[turbid geode]

defense loses so often now on Stranded for Breakthrough

[lament plank]

jesus fucking christ....how hard is it to have a launcher that works? ever since EA app swap over (only because forced to) half my game launches fail and dont even open like....HOW

[turbid geode]

same

[fervent rose]

yep same

[clever marlin]

Try doing game repairs

[fervent rose]

[turbid geode]

I spend more time searching for a breakthrough match than being able to play a match with a decent defense team

[worn saddle]

Anyone experiencing rubberbanding recently?

[rain glacier]

am i missing something

[drowsy shuttle]

There are no decent defensive teams on bf 2042 breakthrough... only bad attacking teams.

[rain glacier]

there is only 1 server with 38 people

aare only 38 people playing 2042

[fervent rose]

there were EA server problems today

[rain glacier]

how do i join an actual lobby

every time i click either conquest im in a lobby by mysekf

[fervent rose]

do you have crossplay turned on

[robust zodiac]

activate crossplay

[fervent rose]

pc has no pc only lobbies

[rain glacier]

ooh ok

[wooden briar]

Fuck this airburst launcher

[fervent rose]

usually at least

ppl just play default which is crossplay

[umbral sparrow]

Love how body armor decreases headshot damage

[turbid geode]

I don't understand how people struggle to fight a Bolte

[wooden briar]

I wish I could change my squad

[turbid geode]

literally just shoot the driver and gunner

[wooden briar]

Not a hhecking chancw

[fervent rose]

the "change random squad" thing kinda works

[wooden briar]

Darn 60 dollars game without proper utilities

[fervent rose]

but it sucks. they need proper squad menu back

[wooden briar]

This is the new future of gaming

Blank video games for cash grab

Why didnt they consult mental doctors like diablo immortal did

So they could maximize profit for shopaholics

Frustrating

[wooden briar]

Why specialists arent locked behind paywall?

And to unlock them you have to play like 300 matches on a new map

I mean thats what other f2p games do

Paid games shouldnt have premium currency

[tiny onyx]

Paid and Buggy

[turbid geode]

also the Avancy shreds vehicles with AP rounds

[wooden briar]

They dont make them like they used to

And old games are simple

Like old gta games

[drowsy shuttle]

Ah they didnt fixed the taser batoon bug... hope they fix it in 4.1 update

[turbid geode]

is the free to play still active?

[drowsy shuttle]

Yes

[turbid geode]

no wonder most people on defense don't know what defending a objective means

[vague horizon]

lol breakthrough be like

[wooden briar]

Be like extremely one sided matches

One team full of sweats

Others clueless

[arctic grove]

bf4 OT

[turbid geode]

Breakthrough be like: defense gets stomped or attackers get stomped

[wooden briar]

Yeah skill issue

Skill issue my life

[vague horizon]

feels like breakthrough matches only last for like 13 mins at max considering most new players dont know how to defend an objective

or attack an objective

[wooden briar]

And half of it being running from the spawn

[turbid geode]

majority of my breakthrough matches on Flashpoint be defense getting stomped and playing defense because defenders keep leaving

[vague horizon]

breakthrough on flashpoint is so one sided

[buoyant trail]

This

[wooden briar]

I agree

Whichever side Im on, I always lose

So one sided yea

[buoyant trail]

I've played attacker maybe thrice? And it was with people who didnt know what attacking meant
