It didn’t have those irons in og bf3

Honestly they feel kinda weird
magic bloom
Cause they had DRIP that’s about it
next onyx
Time to put kobra sight with the fore grip and heavy barrel and to ruin people.
magic bloom
And they used FAL’s
eager spire
Cause they had DRIP that’s about it
their camo looked like shit, literally.

I am fully confident the next batch of vault weapons have terrible handing/recoil control like the other ass vault weapons

We hadit back in hardline and in this game I reckon I can see it doing well if balanced with a super quick reload.

Only their uniforms and weapon choices

It's mostly the recoil control, how easily can you control your gun when firing
spiral folio
There's some old NK military parade and they wanted to be all
"We have kevlar armor tooooo" and its clearly like fake stuffed fabric
copper ice
handling stat 
next onyx
Yeah that's control.
spiral folio
The helical mags are supposedly real too
next onyx
They'll probably be super easy to control.
spiral folio
200 rounds of 7.62 at the end of your barrel

so Way can stay true to his native
next onyx
Thought I am more concerned over with spread and their damage over range.
eager spire
Only their uniforms and weapon choices
as if Rhodesia was the only people to use the FAL, though. All those users of it and you choose to larp as the one that sucks the most ass?
royal swan
They'll probably be super easy to control.
But since they are vault weapons I'm guessing the based weapons will outperform them
spiral folio
BF1 heroes Sentry plushie

Is there any hope left for bf 2042 or should I just forget about it
spiral folio
EA misses so many merchandising opportunities
next onyx
900 rpm AEK will be super tricky to balance.
magic bloom
as if Rhodesia was the only people to use the FAL, though. All those users of it...
Before I go to bed I only like them cause of the camo and their uniforms not saying they were the best
next onyx
So we'll see how it'll go.
magic bloom
I mean for god sake the countries been gone for like 40 years now
spiral folio
900 rpm AEK will be super tricky to balance.
Nah
Theyll go by the notion
"The faster it shoots the less damage it does"
next onyx
I don't see the point at digging at asto for just liking their guns and that.
It'll most likely be that Znath.
spiral folio
Itll be like the pf51
Its a balancing method so bad and common its just industry standard
next onyx
If they want the AEK to be relevant in the meta they'll need to push the power level of every thing else up.
spiral folio
Portal weapon
Meta
Pick one
safe palm
Games always focus too much on raw ttk
safe palm
As if you’re always going to be killing at exact optimal efficiency
spiral folio
Im sure itll be like most portal weapons
"That was fun"
-switches back to a real gun-
next onyx
Yeah true Jack.
safe palm
It is a problem if one gun can kill at lightning speed and everything else lags behind but there are ways to balance shit without just making them peashooters
spiral folio
Even though the m16 and AEK basically fire the same round. The aek will have some bogus balancing to make it do less effective damage
eager spire
This game's gunplay has been fucked since the first recoil bug fix, because they've never bothered to adjust the recoil values to compensate for the fact that people can actually properly control the recoil now
spiral folio
Like increased bloom/worse handling
safe palm
I mean if every 556 gun did the exact same damage then it would be a balance nightmare
next onyx
Actually ironically the MTAR rips.
safe palm
You need to take liberties for gameplay purposes
next onyx
Yet not many people pick it because it is quite limiting. If anything that might give it some Lee way.
pine roost
Imagine spelling armour without the u
eager spire
imagine adding an unnecessary u

I see a lot of people complain about portal weapons sucking but I really never have that much trouble with them

Armour plate overhaul? Did armour apply to headshots before?
spiral folio
I think
safe palm
Like an m9 would be sick
robust vapor
Maxim 9 cause stelth
spiral folio
I wish instead of adding 9mm after 9mm they'd just add skins to remodel the existing 9
robust vapor
spiral folio
Its not like one 9 is vastly different than the next same size 9
safe palm
If they’re making the models and textures and sounds just for a skin they may as well make it its own weapon
spiral folio
Why
safe palm
I think you’re misinterpreting what the point of weapon variety in a game is
next onyx
Side topic.
Jack I see your pfp and I always think of Carl's car getting sucked into a jet engine.
spiral folio
Yea variety isnt 5 different identical pizzas
next onyx
M9 has always been a nice spammy pistol.
safe palm
Yeah they all fire the same bullet but they’re still different weapons
next onyx
With good power behind it.
safe palm
They all handle a bit differently with different stats and whatnot
There’s no downside to more choices
spiral folio
The differences between most 9mms will be ergonomics amd reliability. Neither of which apply to a game
safe palm
Side topic.

By that logic why bother having both the m16 and the m416 if they both fire the same 5.56
spiral folio
Unless its loke a compact ba a full size you're nkt gonna get a ballistic difference between a glock
Yes!
Cause ballistically theyre the same
fiery shoal
videogames arent concerned with what type of bullets a gun uses irl
spiral folio
It doesn't add to the game it jhst reskins yet another identical performing weapon
safe palm
Except it does
fiery shoal
even in a game like bfv with a lot of similar weapons, there is variance enough to justify multiple weapons
safe palm
If everyone is using the exact same statistically identical weapon with different coats of paint
That’s boring
fiery shoal
ease of us, slight perk here, con there
next onyx
The m5a3 fires 5.56. What's the point of that if the m16a3.
safe palm
The m416 and the m16 handle rather differently in spite of their real world similarities because that’s what makes for a good shooter
next onyx
Easy. It's because they perform quite differently.
spiral folio
If you out 556 through 20 different same length barrels youre gonna get the same velocity. It doesnt matter if the same barrel is on a 416 or a m16
M5a3 fires 6.8
Thats one reason
fiery shoal
If you out 556 through 20 different same length barrels youre gonna get the sam...
none of this matters to a videogame
next onyx
Yeah the m416 have more accuracy and better recoil to boot over a range versus the m16a3.
safe palm
Realism isn’t a factor here man
next onyx
The standard rounds for the m5a3 are 5.56.
safe palm
At least not in this context
next onyx
Or even better then. Why shove 6.8 rounds into the m5a3 when the rm277 exists.
spiral folio
It should be 6.8 cause jts 6.8
naive quiver
The new update is on next Tuesday?
next onyx
Seems so pepsi.
safe palm
So you want one single weapon for every bullet caliber and that’s it?
Does that not sound boring?
Battlefield isn’t some comp game man
next onyx
A game with lots of different guns for lots of different people allows one to explore different play styles.
spiral folio
Unless theyre wildly different ie a m4 vs a m16 because the different barrel lengths change the velocity and handling
next onyx
Don't think it's just the matter of comp cause that's completely different.
spiral folio
Well theres a difference between like a 9mm uzi and a 9mm mp5 clearly
fiery shoal
talks about wildly different.. then quotes barrel length differences..
safe palm
Comp games are more likely to try and cut out the fat is what I’m saying
spiral folio
Barrel length changes ballistics
fiery shoal
thats less different than most weapons already in game though..
spiral folio
But two 9mm pistols will have basically the same exact ballistics
safe palm
Like how halo infinite got rid of the covenant carbine just because they had other similar guns already
next onyx
Yeah true. I have a comp mentality stuck on me but I always think instead what else can be done for another gun to make it viable.
safe palm
That to me just screams “no fun”
next onyx
They got rid of the plasma rifle.
spiral folio
Which is my main over reaching point.
next onyx
Which is a sin.
spiral folio
Was 9mm pistols dont vary a lot if any
spiral folio
Yes
safe palm
But two 9mm pistols will have basically the same exact ballistics
You keep talking about ballistics and real world similarities which just aren’t a factor in a video game
spiral folio
What would you have a difference between a glock 19 and a m9 be in game besides appearance.
fiery shoal
a ton of things.. its a video game.. you can change any value..
safe palm
When you have the Glock, mp443, m93r, etc you can have variety in weapon performance among a class of guns even if they’re all pretty similar irl
next onyx
It doesn't matter if they fire the same round at the end of the day it's a tool.
safe palm
Truly nobody cares that they all shoot the same bullet
spiral folio
Like make one wildly more powerful because the square slide makes the shooties shootier?
fiery shoal
no..
low timber
Got the pink Paik Playercard
fiery shoal
do you know how many "cogs" there are to tweak a weapon in agame?
next onyx
The one that hits harder is to force you to people more accurate.
spiral folio
Oh the square exactly same weight slide makes them LESS shooty
next onyx
The faster one allows you to spam fire more, miss more and not be fucked.
pine roost
No it’s just cause they choose to
safe palm
This is the dumbest conversation
low timber
Way, was the grenade launcher bullet drop bug never fixed?
fiery shoal
hrec, vrec, rof, dmg, dmg drop off, spread, sprint to fire, etc etc etc... theres like at least 20 stats to change on a weapon to differentiate them
spiral folio
Oooooor
You could add a lower caliber gun that shoots faster
fiery shoal
and no it doesnt boil down to ammo type at all
next onyx
In hardline we had tonnes of battle rifles. Yeah they technically for the most part fired the same round.
But they all had different stats and niches.
spiral folio
It does ammo type changes a lot for pistols
fiery shoal
irl
next onyx
The hk51 had a dual burst like mode. The FN FAL fired incredibly fast but was really hard to control, the scar was the second slowest firing battle rifle but it was the most accurate conversely.
fiery shoal
NOT IN VIDEO GAMES
low timber
?
Short barrel it dips way sooner, with extended barrel it flies further without dipping.
next onyx
Oh that's a side effect of barrels.
safe palm
I just don’t understand the argument that games should have LESS stuff in them
low timber
Yeah I know, but was it never fixed?
next onyx
Yeah they're aware but it's probably like a hard bug.
fiery shoal
its like znath is just intentionally ignoring the "caliber doesnt matter for videogames" statement we all keep making...
low timber
Cause I’m noticing it with the RM68
next onyx
I don't think they can do anything about it unless they do a massive change.
pine roost
I don’t even know what calibre a gun shoots cause it such a non factor
fiery shoal
I don’t even know what calibre a gun shoots cause it such a non factor
it literally doesnt matter at all
low timber
But they managed to fix the Masterkey’s similar bug 
next onyx
For the most part in this game yeah.
Probably because it's a different projectile versus GL.
safe palm
Why should a car game have more than one muscle car? They’re all pretty similar right
next onyx
Really what matters in this game is the ammo type you are firing.

Kpm matters more the way I see it.

Kd can be inflated so easily it doesn’t mean much in this game
fiery shoal
its hard to get 2+ kills a minute, vs getting a 5 kdr could mean you went 5-1 in a 30 minute match

fiery shoal
Let’s be real none of the stats really matter
ideally win % would, but playing something like 128 conquest solo means you cant do shit to carry anyway
copper ice
if it's above 0 you should be banned

If you know you are playing proactively then I use kd to measure my own performance but determining someone else’s prowess using their kd isn’t really very viable

I’m suddenly curious about what everyone’s absolute lamest personal nitpick is

Mine is that I don’t like that dot in the center of the crosshair

There’s a setting for it
next onyx
Middle mouse button to throw.
placid oxide
I set mine to auto throw.

It's as awkward as when someone charges you with one round in their garand and both if you can hear the ping go off and so you can telepathically hear the person go oh shit.

My second lamest nitpick is that turning off “damage based hitmarkers” doesn’t stop the killshot hitmarker from showing up
low timber
I’d say my sidearm main is gonna be the Super 500 once I get it to T1 and MP28 and PF51, but I want a laser to it.

You turn off hit markers 
next onyx
I would shoot at a guy, my fg42 would prematurely run dry and then they'd see me run like shit.
safe palm
No
I turn off damage-based hitmarkers
I.e. headshot hitmarkers just show up as the default hitmarker
pine roost
Ah, gotcha
safe palm
But that option doesn’t disable the killshot one for whatever reason lol
low timber
Oh yeah wouldn't you believe I ran out of ammo as a support many times, marse.
MoH:WF had support have a infinity ♾ symbol on their spare ammo so they didn’t have to resupply themselves.

So theyd barricade themselves out of their own freakin flag
Itd be like digging trenches toward your flag to protect the enemy

the fucking fortification bots that would build the tank traps that blocked their own tanks

They might add more portal maps in year 2

NTW on a building? Good luck sniping with that velocity
naive quiver
They might add more portal maps in year 2
Hopefully they’ll
ruby saffron
The fact they are adding more vault weapons is a good sign
naive quiver
I prefer they called battlefield 2042 to just “ battlefield “ instead
radiant prism
he called the MTAR pointless ;-;
naive quiver
Mixed
fervent rose
maybe one day they'll tweak them and they wont be but.. they suck
ruby saffron
To me it says they are working on more legacy content if they are adding more obscure old weapons from the older games

i love a good mtar. 2042's isnt

that's an okay change.

Scrapmetal was unholy, demonic, evil, twisted, disgusting. Horrifying map
fervent rose
2042 making you stuck is not good flow
naive quiver
2042 doesnt have the worst map in the franchise at least
However have the worst launch so far

I actually had more issues with 4 than i did 2042, but i saw some absurd bugs my friends had

All of the Close Quarters DLC maps were based actually.

I feel like that’s debatable
fervent rose
bf4 was more technically fucked
eager spire
The best infantry maps DICE ever made for Battlefield. And then they never made maps like those again.
arctic grove
I can’t speak for myself and my own personal experiences but apparently BF4s netcode and stability was utter shit
ruby saffron
Bf4’s launch was horrendous
fervent rose
2042's was an unfinished game with wildly bad ideas
you could play the alpha
but was it fun
drowsy shuttle
wait.. why they changed the masteries for several specialists but not for Boris?!?!
