why ever run an smg when the AM40 exists

shell ermine
#

Tangent, but did we know that DICE was abandoning BFV before the pandemic? The final content update came out in June 2020.

arctic grove
#

I hate ARs rn but I cannot stop abusing their headshot modifier

ruby citrus
#

get all the benefits of an smg without the shit multiplier

arctic grove
#

The SFAR with this headshot multiplier is ridiculous

ruby citrus
#

yeah

#

it doing the same damage as an MMR is illegal

#

it does a better job than the DM7 at the distances the DM7 should be played in

jade stratus
ruby citrus
#

also lets not ignore that the M5A3 is a better smg than most smgs, while also being a "does everything" gun

jade stratus
#

What about the PKP-BP?

#

Nobody remembers these

ruby citrus
#

at least the pkp suffers from the lmg ads time

arctic grove
#

PKP reminds me of the V MMGs

jade stratus
#

overshadowed by the new season weapons

ruby citrus
#

lmgs are mostly kept in check by the ads delay

#

even though the RPT is also a laser beam

jade stratus
#

literally I can expect s5 weapons to be more broken than the last

shell ermine
#

We need Conquest Assault back as a staple

#

This obsession with Conquest Head-On needs to end

ruby citrus
#

remember when they advertised the RPT as a "heavy hitter"? yeah me too OMEGALUL

arctic grove
#

Is the lmg ads delay just cosmetic? I remember when dice randomly tried to slow down extended/drum mags and apparently while shooting you got ads accuracy during the animation lol

ruby citrus
#

I was expecting chauchat, got a minigun instead

arctic grove
turbid geode
#

chauchat in BF2042 when?

shell ermine
#

Its funny the RPT is the first LMG I actually like

ruby citrus
arctic grove
#

Ohh gotcha

jade stratus
ruby citrus
#

its what keeps them mostly in check imo

#

since you need to prefire to make it work

jade stratus
#

fr

turbid geode
#

M240B, PKP-BP are amazing

#

lookin forward to the RPK

ruby citrus
#

also most LMGs have absolutely fat movement penalties when adsing

#

the RPT makes you move like a snail

jade stratus
acoustic seal
#

rpt makes you stand still and it's still one of the best guns in the game

ruby citrus
#

I had many bipod moments with the rpt and its super fun

arctic grove
#

oh yeah the ads walking speed with LMGs

#

EUGH

shell ermine
ruby citrus
#

running mackay almost a must if you use lmgs for non bipod gameplay imo

acoustic seal
shell ermine
#

I just want them to buff ADS movement speed for everyone and then class lock the weapons

ruby citrus
#

yeah the gun is a total laser beam

#

and its fire rate is insane

arctic grove
#

I got this wicked headshot at like a good 90 meters just spraying this dude with the LCMG

jade stratus
ruby citrus
#

you should never under any scenario be able to contest someone from 100m away with an smg or an lmg (non-bipoded)

arctic grove
#

ARs should stop working at maaaaybe 60 or so meters

ruby citrus
#

MMRs up to 100, snipers for the rest

shell ermine
#

Anyway, idk how one of the best Conquest maps of all time can essentially be an afterthought (Provence) but DICE struggles to make halfway decent maps for 2042

ruby citrus
#

I think the reason the game gets really irritating at times is because it has BFVs ultra fast ttks without the engagement distances

jade stratus
ruby citrus
#

so you just drop dead from someone that you can see 2 pixels of

#

beaming you with an AR

jade stratus
#

“Huge maps guys what could go wrong?”

ruby citrus
#

128 was a mistake honestly

shell ermine
#

Frankly crossplay doesn't help because PC players naturally have a much longer engagement distance than console players

ruby citrus
#

it should have been 40v40 at worst

arctic grove
#

I think with 128 and the weather events, PLUS reworks, PLUS last gen really hurt dices resources for not only more enjoyable maps, but simply more variety in them to begin with

ruby citrus
#

they had to make the maps plain because the game already struggles as is performance wise

shell ermine
#

I have to basically shoot at enemy tracers because I physically can't see their models

arctic grove
#

128 is a concept that I think was poorly timed to be experimented with rn. Adding spread to the guns would alleviate maps gameplay to a degree, but time to travel would still be an issue for some players

It’s best to go back to 64 for at least a few more games

shell ermine
#

No one can seriously expect me to believe that anyone at DICE thought that the original launch maps were in any way palatable for Conquest, even 64v64

ruby citrus
#

I just think fixing engagement distances would make the game a lot better

#

make guns peashooters past their intended range

tropic berry
placid echo
#

I haven't heard that comparison yet, some people I know have compared it to Capital Supremacy from Battlefront 2

arctic grove
#

I gotta admit that I REALLY like some of 2042s map concepts. Manifest, which is an entire shipping port )and generally a fun map), Orbital, a space center thingy (great looking map, a lot of beta nostalgia), Renewal which is REALLY cool looking, exposure which is just dope in general, etc

I hope with 64 going forward things can still be ‘ambitious’ with the map themes in a way?

jade stratus
ruby citrus
#

honestly the map i remember the most from BF1 is monte grappa

#

I LOVED its operation and music

arctic grove
#

For me, I remember Heligoland Bight and Verdun Heights passionately

jade stratus
#

I remember it for the campers

#

monte grappa

ruby citrus
#

it had the banger attackers advance music

shell ermine
jade stratus
#

honestly I loved the apocalypse maps

ruby citrus
#

also, its funny how battlefront 2 does breakthrough better than BFV and 2042 in my opinion

arctic grove
#

Apocalypse maps were dope yea

lyric snow
#

Before time ravaged you

shell ermine
#

Conquest Double Assault Lines was conceptualized but never actually implemented as far as I know, but Conquest Assault Lines was on a few 2142 maps

arctic grove
ruby citrus
#

I should go back to BF2 at some point

#

that game was really fun

#

the heroes are pretty much just tanks in battlefield games

lyric snow
ruby citrus
#

was one hell of a good han solo

shell ermine
#

I was deeply disappointed by swbf2

ruby citrus
#

I got it after most of the issues people had with the game were fixed, and I enjoyed it a lot

shell ermine
#

I loved the arcadey gameplay of the 2015 game and it felt like they tried to mainstream it too much in 2017

ruby citrus
#

its maps were much better thought out than anything in 2042

#

had a lot more indoors close quarters combat

shell ermine
#

Adding hipfire penalties, movement penalties, bringing the third person camera in closer, adding weapon attachments, adding heroes and special classes which hurt players who enjoyed the infantry gameplay

arctic grove
#

Orbital, Manifest, Renewal and Exposure are honestly the most stand out maps in 2042 imo, really great concepts behind them (I know y’all are on a new subject but I had to mention it again CursedCat)

ruby citrus
#

spearhead is also okay

shell ermine
#

Disagree on Manifest, but yeah for the others

#

And Spearhead

#

Like B- maps at best, but the best in 2042

ruby citrus
#

I personally dislike exposure due to how it feels like it takes forever to get to another point

arctic grove
#

Solid B-C tier maps yeah agreed

ruby citrus
#

you're better off redeploying if you're going from E to anywhere

arctic grove
ruby citrus
#

my best time in exposure is chilling in A sector

#

most of the time

#

lots of vehicles to blow up, decent chunk of the action

arctic grove
#

That’s one of the best ways to play 128 CQ, find a decent sector and just sit there. I occasionally travel between with an in world vehicle

shell ermine
#

Okay so yeah, we didn't learn until April 23, 2020 that DICE was abandoning BFV. I do wonder if the pandemic had as much to play in that as trying to get 2042 done.

ruby citrus
#

BFV had some fantastic maps honestly

#

rotterdam and devastation still prolly being my favs

woven acorn
#

so uh anyone else had the glitch where half of the players, vehicles and your own guns are invisible?

ruby citrus
#

but it also had havana so ugh

acoustic seal
#

people never talk about the good maps from bf1 for some reason

#

prise de tahure is just better amiens but people hate it for some reason????

ruby citrus
#

bf1 had bangers all around imo

#

even the more open maps never felt "too" open

shell ermine
#

Wake, Pacific Storm, Provence, Arras

ruby citrus
#

the russian dlc maps were also nice

shell ermine
#

My top 4 BFV maps

arctic grove
#

I don’t really mind BFVs maps, only couple that I’m not really enjoying so far while playing are Hamada and Rotten Steel(?)

ruby citrus
acoustic seal
shell ermine
#

I prefer larger maps with vehicles

acoustic seal
#

galicia my despised

ruby citrus
#

I'm talking more of the urban russian maps

#

forgot their names

#

its been a while

woven acorn
# ruby citrus the russian dlc maps were also nice

they were great. had some epic moments there. one time just me and another player were near some boats at a frozen lake, we both missed our shots, pulled out pistols and missed eventually I bayonette charged him and there was blood everywhere whilst the snow came down. brutal af

shell ermine
#

I like to mix it up and the infantry focused maps weren't bad (except for Fjell and Underground), but I prefer bigger maps

arctic grove
#

Gotta put it up at least a LITTLE bit CursedCat

ruby citrus
#

amiens conquest is a banger, amiens breakthrough is hell

acoustic seal
arctic grove
cosmic sequoia
#

Arras was such a good map

shell ermine
#

Frankly Fjell, Underground, and Narvik are the only explicitly bad BFV maps. All of the other ones, yes Panzerstorm and Hamada included, have redeeming qualities and good areas

cosmic sequoia
#

Panzerstorm is freaking awesome too

arctic grove
ruby citrus
#

hard disagree

cosmic sequoia
#

Cod players be like “wait warfare isn’t just guns and infantry?’”

shell ermine
#

Idk why Arras is stuck in the Tactical Conquest Playlist. Its just as much of a mixed map as Provence which is in the Strategic Conquest Playlist

ruby citrus
#

panzerstorm is only good if you like tanks a lot

#

or vehicles in general

cosmic sequoia
#

Or have any brains and know how to take tanks out

#

Lmao

ruby citrus
#

honestly its too open for infantry, you either sit on one point or just hop in a tank

shell ermine
#

Arras is the only map where I don't mind playing as the British

jade stratus
arctic grove
#

the utoobers

ruby citrus
#

BF1 just felt like it had a lot of soul, how to put it best

#

the pre battle speeches, the general vibe, it was just a banger

#

the behemoths

arctic grove
#

Oh god, the Operations battle speeches

cosmic sequoia
#

Yeah it was immersive

arctic grove
#

Such a little but fucking amazing detail

cosmic sequoia
#

The whistles that the commanders use

jade stratus
cosmic sequoia
#

Very nice

shell ermine
#

Remember the Greek maps, Marita and Mercury? They were pretty damn good

arctic grove
ruby citrus
#

the issue with 2042 is that every map is panzerstorm

cosmic sequoia
#

Because we don’t have a vehicle ecosystem

arctic grove
cosmic sequoia
#

They listened to blueberries so much that the vehicle shit is so one sided

#

The Russian super hind beats the condor 9 out of 10 times

ruby citrus
#

personally I just cant wait for the transport chopper to get its kneecaps caved in

acoustic seal
#

they didn't listen to anyone, they overloaded all the vehicles with utility completely on their own

shell ermine
#

One big thing missing from 2042's Conquest is flags not giving you additional vehicle spawns

ruby citrus
#

disable repair tool for helicopter passengers

cosmic sequoia
#

It needs to be reworked

jade stratus
cosmic sequoia
#

They keep@making shit that is unable to be balanced

ruby citrus
#

jets in 2042 feel so floaty and weird to pilot

#

idk if its just me

jade stratus
#

Literally 2042 in a nutshell

cosmic sequoia
#

I wouldn’t say helicopters are broken

shell ermine
#

Just remove the transport aircraft entirely

jade stratus
cosmic sequoia
#

But in the right hand they can do a lot

arctic grove
#

I also hate how the vehicle selection works period in 2042, every other BF gave you select vehicles on select maps

ruby citrus
#

transport helo is fine IF you remove crawford cheese imo

acoustic seal
#

the transports just need the explosive cannons removed

ruby citrus
#

the issue with transport helo rn is you have 2 crawfords endlessly repairing it, its basically immortal

cosmic sequoia
acoustic seal
#

just stop giving explosive splash damage to everything

cosmic sequoia
#

There are like 3 maps with different variations on vehicles

acoustic seal
#

get rid of the 40mm seat

cosmic sequoia
#

The tanks on this game feel like nothing

#

TANKS

ruby citrus
#

railgun tank is disgusting though

cosmic sequoia
#

Yeah

#

Needs to be removed

jade stratus
ruby citrus
#

sniping one hit kill helicopters from spawn

cosmic sequoia
#

Yeah really lame

ruby citrus
#

like why ever run an EBAA when you can just run a railgun tank

arctic grove
#

Damn man

jade stratus
ruby citrus
#

I know vehicles are restricted in breakthrough

mental delta
arctic grove
ruby citrus
#

idk if they are in conquest

arctic grove
#

team needs AA but it’s two guys sniping from spawn

cosmic sequoia
#

They just keep making vehicles that are so fucking lame

#

The stealth helicopters?

#

Like what the fuck

ruby citrus
#

the cav brawler is cool

#

imo

cosmic sequoia
#

Yeah that’s a W

#

But that’s about it

solid imp
#

the brawler might be my favorite vehicle of all BF

arctic grove
#

Stealths are also pretty cool but I will die on the hill that stealth should’ve never worked to completely remove lock ons, just extend the duration

cosmic sequoia
#

Yes

#

It doesn’t make sense

#

They can’t fully balance it without either nerfing it into the ground, or it’s the best thing ever

#

It is fundamentally broken

ruby citrus
#

stealth choppers die to one TV missile so they're at least kept in check by that

jade stratus
#

Literally bt is just a camper sniping helis and doing nothing for the team and 90% of the time their team loses

arctic grove
cosmic sequoia
#

I mean the super hind or “transport vehicles”

#

Was our first look

ruby citrus
#

more people need to get good at lis honestly

#

a good lis is a menace to any nightbird/stealth pilot

fierce gull
#

I got 3000 coins out of nowhere wtf

cosmic sequoia
#

People fly the fucking condor into the wall, but any chimpanzee can figure out how to keep the super hind at least steady

jade stratus
arctic grove
arctic grove
fierce gull
#

did some shit happen?

arctic grove
#

So they fly at like 2 mph

cosmic sequoia
#

Oh yeah

#

Never changing modes

ruby citrus
#

personally the only thing that needs to be done with transport helos are:

  1. disable repair tool for passengers, no more crawford cheese
  2. remove 40mm launcher from it
cosmic sequoia
#

Or when they do, they fly fast into a wall

arctic grove
#

Condor should probably spawn in jet mode tbh

cosmic sequoia
#

No

#

Remove the front gun entirely

#

It’s a transport vehicle for gods sake

#

Make it have the health of a helicopter

#

So people want to get out

ruby citrus
#

the biggest issue with transport vehicles right now is that they're immortal

cosmic sequoia
#

“Shit this thing is an easy target and there’s 4 of us in here”

ruby citrus
#

2 crawfords + flares + active repair = never dies

#

unless it gets hit by 4 TGMs in quick succession that fucker is never going down

cosmic sequoia
#

it’s just fundamentally fucked ip

#

Up

#

The condor just needs to be replaced with a generic transport chopper

#

Because more often than not, someone tries to fly it and it just goes horribly

ruby citrus
#

the transport chopper is better than the condor in every way p much

cosmic sequoia
#

Therefore giving the Russians an unfair advantage

ruby citrus
#

condor just feels like a "shoot me, please" vehicle

cosmic sequoia
#

Yeah

#

Slow to maneuver

ruby citrus
#

its so fat that even a baby can TV missile it

ebon pilot
cosmic sequoia
#

Yeah but even when it’s going straight up

#

Very easy target

#

And the gunners are in disarray

ruby citrus
#

a good lis just leads her shots, or it gets melted in seconds by an EBAA

ebon pilot
#

Unless you're a Russian transport heli

cosmic sequoia
#

Yeah I suppose but not really

#

Let him fly up into the air

#

Im gonna go help my team and I’ll catch him later

ruby citrus
#

the condor legit just drops dead in 2 seconds if its in the line of sight of an EBAA

cosmic sequoia
#

Yeah lmao

#

Tries to change into fly mode and just gets railed before the jets turn

ebon pilot
#

Most air vehicles drop dead in 2 seconds within LOS of a wildcat

cosmic sequoia
#

God forbid you tell a console player to press two buttons to change modes

ruby citrus
#

except transport helos

cosmic sequoia
#

Yeah except the super hind

#

Which can face off against a wildcat

#

Lmaoo

ruby citrus
#

super hind with 2 crawford can eat a wildcat for a minute

ebon pilot
#

I've never seen a hind last long against a wildcat

ruby citrus
#

its just that many people dont use the crawford cheese, but when they do

#

oh boy

cosmic sequoia
#

It’s just so nice to fly on the Russian side. Not having to worry about the floating fortress of doom is amazing

ebon pilot
#

Does Crawford cheese still work after the nerf?

ruby citrus
#

yeah

#

feels equally as strong imo

#

Its just insane how if a tank did even half of the reckless stuff a super hind did it would die 5 times over

jade stratus
ruby citrus
#

Hell even a condor

ruby citrus
shell ermine
#

There is no real reason to have transport aircraft beyond "well its modern-ish setting so I guess we have to?". Get rid of them entirely

#

Maps will flow a lot better with actual frontlines

ruby citrus
#

I even have a button that doubles my dpi bound to mb5

#

Specifically for lis

pseudo pecan
#

is there a way to turn on the showing of a locked on vehicle without first taking our your rocket? seems so silly that its the only way of knowing

ebon pilot
#

Also, helis like to move up to dodge rockets. So aim above them as well

ruby citrus
#

Also

#

Always boost, immediately boost

#

Non boosted rockets are stupidly easy to dodge

jade stratus
woven acorn
jade stratus
#

Yeah I have tried lol

ruby citrus
#

Best range of engagement is as horizontal as possible and about 200m away

#

Imo

#

Can never hit a helo right above me

jade stratus
#

Let me see if I can show y’all what I mean

woven acorn
#

go for the ones that are kind of close and distracted, like transport vehicles hovering

ruby citrus
#

Honestly transports are not your main target

#

The focus are jets, stealth choppers and nightbirds

#

They die in one hit

woven acorn
# ruby citrus the biggest issue with transport vehicles right now is that they're immortal

i really wish they weren't so heavily armed tbh. it stops people from getting out quick because they want to pew pew, and it turns them into killing machines which is not their purposes. I love transport vehicles, they're my favourite category, but I feel cruel hovering whilst my team blasts everyone from above. I'm there to transport ppl, not create a flying mini gun hell machine

ruby citrus
#

Iirc the damage to a transport vehicle is the same as vs a tank

#

it is

#

i didnt realise smaller helis go down in one hit, found that out first hand yesterday

jade stratus
#

my sensitivity was way too low

#

Like 15

woven acorn
#

oof

jade stratus
#

Changed it a while ago to 59

#

50

#

And I had stick acceleration

#

But I am getting better!

ruby citrus
#

for lis specifically crank that bad boy up to 100

jade stratus
#

Very very slowly

ruby citrus
#

and I run like 3200dpi for my mouse for lis specifically

shrewd wagon
#

Yello. Anyone encountered bug, where Ads just goes on and off randomly? I thought it was my mouse, but after testing, doesnt seem so

ruby citrus
#

never had that happen

jade stratus
#

yeah I’m getting used to 50 sens for my console

#

Gonna up it to 65-70 after I get used to it

#

Eventually 100

ruby citrus
#

like I ran it originally at 20

jade stratus
#

Yeah same

ruby citrus
#

then saw someone on yt give the advice to crank it to 100

#

and I did, its night and day

jade stratus
#

But everyone recommends 100

ruby citrus
#

yeah 100 gives the most manouverability

#

because youre going to be always boosting 99% of the time

jade stratus
#

It was mainly stick acceleration that made the difference

ruby citrus
#

if you're not boosting you're doing lis wrong

jade stratus
#

I also wanted to do that because I recently got the ucav so

ruby citrus
#

non boosted missiles are so painfully easy to dodge its insane, idk if you ever piloted

#

boosted missiles are a LOT harder to avoid though, esp if they lead their shot

#

its still a mindgame though, and a good pilot can evade you quite skillfully

jade stratus
#

ah

#

yeah I suck both ways, pilot and aa

#

I’m more of a boots on the ground person

small marsh
#

I BELIEVE I CAN FLYYYY

jade stratus
#

Tanks, armor and infantry are my way of playing

#

I got into jets but since 2042 you know,

#

meh

ruby citrus
#

I love being the anti vehicle infantry

#

its why I enjoy lis a lot, primarily AA but can be AT too

#

also it never gets old humbling the TTV 90/0 nightbird pilots

wicked mirage
#

In every game I play . Battlefield or not . I can’t fly for shit

ruby citrus
#

I got a lot better at flying by playing sw squadrons

#

that game is pure piloting, forced me to get good at dogfights

wicked mirage
#

It’s a good game but like

#

I don’t understand why they made it

#

It’s the same as bf2

ruby citrus
#

not even close

#

BF2 piloting was straight up ass

#

squadrons has a LOT of depth

#

including diverting power to guns/engines/shield

#

boosting, boost drifts and some other techs I won't go too deep into

small marsh
#

me drive tank. tank good.

Same type of person to die when the count in conquest is 8v5

#

Like bro just keep bleeding out ffs

lilac dust
#

He had triple my deaths and he said stuff like "You guys are letting them spawn kill us now you idiots" 🤣 I dunno maybe if you stopped bleeding out it might help to avoid this situation a little. Just a thought

ruby citrus

Honestly though I wish we had some form of spawn protection

#

At least when spawning on point

#

Too many times where I spawn in someones crosshairs

lilac dust
#

Ye I think destiny pvp gives like an overshield when you spawn for the first couple seconds

ruby citrus

Its fine to have no protection spawning on squad/vehicle but there needs to be some for point spawns imo

you're supposed to get weighted priority for maps you haven't played during the session but it doesnt seem to do much

Oh I thought you guys were just joking lol ... so it's actually a weighted system completely. At least that's what they intend huh?

that feature aint working

it like 90% of 2042 doesnt work properly

you can get the same map like 4 times in a row

It’s like 30 meters range

Oh that’s not bad at all

#

Still probably too much range for c5 imo

arctic grove
#

Tbh yea

#

Dozer and Zain are fine though

warm zealot
#

Dozer is awesome

placid oxide
#

Armored vehicles should require teamwork to take down imo
Additionally, threat of c5 really limits the options an armored vehicle has for positioning. Slows down gameplay when the tank can’t push closer into objectives without being 1 shot by a single person with c5. Especially with the limited turret rotation speed (which is a good change overall)

warm zealot
#

Second best Assault imo

#

He can tank so much

arctic grove
#

Armor angling isn’t all they need but it would be good

placid oxide
#

For sure, and also removing skill gap mechanics like that was just a mistake in general

arctic grove
#

Yeah 2042 severely lacks real skill gap from planes to countering vehicles to gunplay, etc etc

fervent rose
#

you say that but think zain is fine?

arctic grove
#

They just held a jet feedback thing here and a good 99.9% of the feedback was “make them like BF4”

zain is like the ultimate skill gap compression

arctic grove

Ohhh

thats fair

#

mackay is not broken anymore imo

Mackays a little easier to deal with ye

the 30m grapple was a lot but not anymore

recoilless buffed to travel at the speed of light?

copper ice

high on the memory of piats, yes

#

travelling at the speed of light means nothing when damage is mid and you reload at the speed of snail

it just makes them really fucking annoying because its easy chip damage

#

same as a mosquito

#

annoying, not gonna kill you

#

a single repairbot can outrepair the dps of two m5s

arctic grove
copper ice
#

and the vehicle has repair button/aps

#

the m5 launcher reminds me of the panzerfaust but with even less impact vs vehicles

arctic grove
#

still making slight adjustments, but it’s no hud, bf3 US v Russia, solid maps from old to new, mostly larger scale operations, no AI at all, and damage mods make health a lot more realistic whilst still not killing you with one shot unless it’s to the neck or head. Vehicle health is slightly boosted, as most AT or AA wouldn’t completely destroy vehicles with one-two rockets.

good thing they added portal\

so i can play a discontinued game

Higher damage rates, not instant kill but def higher, higher ticket amounts, limited weapons to specific factions, no HUD, no BF2042 operators, and we’ll encourage players to use VOIP to coordinate.

are there vehicles

they havent added like all of the bc2 maps yt

why cant we get an-94 into this game .. yet we get aek

An-94 wouldn’t make it to 2042 irl tbh

sturdy socket
#

aek got added

#

the only problem with the plan of enticing all the AEK Operation Locker sweats is the gunplay isn't there to support it

#

plus, there are zero meat grinder maps

#

so enjoy trying to have a tool to self-heal, an aek, AND a reliable anti-vehicle weapon

#

you can't have all three

#

i genuinely hope there are never any locker-like maps solely to keep this game entirely centered around a mix of infantry-vehicle combat and not just solely one or the other

acoustic seal
sturdy socket
#

at the same time the recoil feels completely uncontrollable

acoustic seal
#

yeah because the input is fucked, not because the actual recoil is hard

sturdy socket
#

it has never felt "good" as a result

#

headshots are grossly difficult too

#

despite me being really good at exactly that

acoustic seal
#

someone put in a bunch of work to add IRMs to the game and all the difficulty comes from bad input instead CursedCat

sturdy socket
#

IRMs?

acoustic seal
#

initial recoil modifiers

sturdy socket
#

like, first shot recoil multipliers

#

i thought 4 had that toto

acoustic seal

so instead of having one initial recoil modifier for the first bullet, the first 5 or so bullets have wildly different recoil

you can rush with ntw

put fusion holo

ya i get u

#

dont think theres anything ur looking for

acoustic seal
# ebon pilot y

SWS 15m damage range was removed and ARs beam harder than snipers at any range under 100m

glacial quarry
#

maybe the crossbow

acoustic seal
#

honestly give the SWS its instakill bodyshot range back so it has at least one leg up over the railgun

ebon pilot
#

why have instakill bodyshot range when you can underbarrel shotgun

buoyant oriole
#

shotguns are boring

#

the most fun ARs are bf3

#

the bf2042 guns have no personality

#

bland and boring

acoustic seal
#

if you're looking for challenge just throw on whichever bolt gun looks the nicest, they're inferior to the railgun anyway

buoyant oriole
#

so sniping satisfies the difficulty level

next onyx

Rorsch mk 4.

acoustic seal
#

rorsch mk4 in utility

ebon pilot
#

or "tactical" as it's now titled

#

rail gun has 20 round mag with 140 shared ammo between all fire modes with single shot, full auto, and burst modes that require using the plus menu to switch between

#

single shot takes a full second to charge and fire

buoyant oriole
ebon pilot
#

it has a 6x scope but because it's not a sniper rifle you can't get sway reduction

#

it's also a one-shot headshot at any range

#

*with single fire shots

buoyant oriole
#

i need to rush

#

and shove the sniper down some throats

#

through the culo massacring the hemorrhoids

ebon pilot
#

i don't think you're using it right

its like sniping with a AR 100 plus meters away

next onyx
quartz elm

Ashe could get banned for it but since cheaters are rampant we know that ain't happening

2042 attachments on portal weapons is cool and all but all they need is a larger mag.

Why would you need confirmation they're barely used cause they can't compete ya know

next onyx
#

P90 could use a tactical compensator too but it's like.

#

Mmh?

Some vault weapons have wayy better attachments than anything the 2042 weapons have available

Flash suppressor just cuts out the flash doesn't make you invisible to the minimap.

#

Huh.

fresh cairn

quartz elm
# fresh cairn wot

And the normal surpressor has the same effect as a heavy surpressor and subsonic ammo combo, but with the downsides of a normal surpressor, meaning you have permanent minimap stealth and ghost hitmarkers

next onyx
#

I could go and test that in a controlled environment.

#

Huh.

fresh cairn

So it's broken is what you're saying

It's not supposed to do that

You wanna test it out Connor?

Wrapped surpressor is goated i use it on all my guns

Especially the ac42

glacial quarry
#

yeah

#

it has zero downsides virtually

still vault
#

The lower damage kinda annoys me. Need more pew

quartz elm
#

Just shoot more times

next onyx
#

6KU doesn't reduce the damage as much as you think.

#

You only matters on specific guns and ammo types but as a whole it's no longer that much of a detriment.

quartz elm
#

What does your name mean?

next onyx
#

@fresh cairn Yeah Flash suppressor is pretty much a light suppressor and the suppressors available act like a heavy suppressor at their fullest potential.

#

It should just mean "Way"

still vault
#

"should" ? 😄

glacial quarry
#

i speak chinese

#

it definitely doesn't mean way

still vault
#

So there's a chance it means floor bucket or something?

glacial quarry
#

my chinese isn't that good tho

Looks more like katakana tbh

My friend who is Japanese sent me the first part of my name translated.

It seems more intentional.

ah its way in japanese

but in chinese it literally means official square
