[arctic grove]

The lis one tho

[ebon pilot]

hey wait a minute this is the AI generated stuff

[spiral folio]

Do a gijoe scarlet for Lis

[proper karma]

VCAR best marksman rifle.

[radiant prism]

based

although uh

the BSV-M does kinda go hard

Idk if the BSV-M counts fully as a marksman since it doubles as a carbine

[arctic grove]

Facts

[plush linden]

Add random daytime at maps so we can play even at night with nightvision and thermal

[spiral folio]

Not everyone has it

[plush linden]

So play with flashlights

Or adr nightvision googles activated by pressing button

[spiral folio]

Or just dont cause night maps always suck

[plush linden]

I want relax my eyes play always at sun is boring

Only 1 map in 12 is dark

[spiral folio]

Good

Night maps suck

[plush linden]

Nah u just have to learn how to play

[glacial quarry]

i made a player vs 124 bot portal experience anyone want to try its rush gamemode lol

[plush linden]

I used to say this game sucks tha i learned how to play it now i love it

[spiral folio]

No you don't
Night maps just suck

[plush linden]

Dude u just bad

[spiral folio]

Always have

[plush linden]

Accept it

[spiral folio]

Every bf game thats had em theyre the worst maps

[plush linden]

I know how to play at night and i love it

[spiral folio]

The shitty intown french map on bf1

[plush linden]

U have just to learn how to play

Less tears more skill

[spiral folio]

What a lame excuse for an argument

[plush linden]

Less tears more skill

[spiral folio]

They're always the worst maps even in bf heroes. People just hiding or run and gunning because they couldnt find cover on light maps

So finally they dont have to because the game doesnt handle lighting properly

[plush linden]

Dude u just dont know how to play it

I used said the same about this game

[spiral folio]

So it gives unskilled spray and pray close quarters turds cover

[plush linden]

This game suck bad map etc etc etc bla bla bla

Than i learnt and now i love it

[spiral folio]

So youre a shotgun user

Nailed it

Moving on

[plush linden]

I play all weap

All veichles

[spiral folio]

Even worse

[plush linden]

Im lime 3.5 kd now

But when i was a crying noobie

[spiral folio]

A toilet overflowing could reach 3-1 with a tank

[plush linden]

I was not even 1 kd

And wining about everything like u

[spiral folio]

Wining

[acoustic seal]

shitter alert

[spiral folio]

You mean
Winnying

[acoustic seal]

prise was amiens but better in every way, turn your brightness up

[plush linden]

Znath cry me a river

Your tears my strenght

[spiral folio]

If you have to dick with settings to fix a maps design it means it's a bad design

[plush linden]

L2p

And go night maps

Cry more

[spiral folio]

Ha what are you 12?

[plush linden]

Less tears more skill

Cry

Vry moar

[spiral folio]

Alright well you've lost entertainment value sadly

[plush linden]

Cry moar pls

[spiral folio]

Repeating the same catchphrases from your "how 2 troll" pamplet

[plush linden]

Dude if u do t know how to play on night u should learn

I suggest to implements night maps even for noobie lime u

[spiral folio]

You're struggling with a 3 letter word so...

Unless you mean "uh"

[fossil trench]

I hope we get a sight magnifier eventually like in BF4

[spiral folio]

Aaaaaa scope?

[fossil trench]

Well yeah you can just switch to a scope, I suppose. Just find it maybe more immersive if you had the option to just flick a magnifier onto your sights.

I really don’t like the maul hybrid. Basically the same concept

[spiral folio]

So just pick whatever zoom you want for anything?

[fossil trench]

Wdym?

[spiral folio]

Pretend some of us skipped bf4 cause every shooter was modern at that time and have no ideea what you mean

[fossil trench]

BF4 had a attachment that I think was in the barrel slot? It was a basic magnifier that you could put up or down that would magnify some close range sights

Just barely though

Something like 1.5x lol

[somber jewel]

like the hybrid sights in cod?

[spiral folio]

So it's an extra animation to do what optics already do

[fossil trench]

Yes that’s it. Same thing

[spiral folio]

Cause like red dots and shit already do 1.5x to 2x

[glacial quarry]

ok 1 vs 127 beginner bots is impossible

[spiral folio]

Shoot faster

[rich elbow]

skill issue

[glacial quarry]

@rich elbow you guys should make it a legit portal experience. rn gotta set it to 128 players then skew the team to one side 4v124 for it to work

[ebon pilot]

holy shit got skill issued by dice

[glacial quarry]

i can see a 4 man squad beating 124 bots on rush tbh

the thing about bots is they wont shoot while youre in smoke so they can be cheesed

[rich elbow]

A featured multiplayer game mode with 4 players, have we ever done that before?

[spiral folio]

32 players v 128 bots woukd be definitely doable

[glacial quarry]

the issue is my lmg runs out of bullets before i can stop all of them defusing the thing

32 is too much

ez clap

i'd say 4 or 8 for a real challenge

also depends on bot difficulty

by default bot difficulty is set to a mix of beginner intermediate and advanced

i think thats why some bots feel stronger than others

[ebon pilot]

16? That's about how big hazard zone is right?

[glacial quarry]

1 vs 127 was funny tho

you legit get steamrolled by bots

threw a c5 and got like 15 kills

[rich elbow]

Sounds like BT on Exposure C1

[glacial quarry]

speaking of BT exposure you guys really gotta fix tank driving into B1

im going to keep abusing it and people are going to suffer

honestly the tank BARELY fits in there if u lowered the glass entrances by like 1 cm it will probably stop it

[rich elbow]

I'll mention something on Slack but if you've reported it already I'm sure it's been seen. Not my expertise/area though so I can't do much about it personally.

[glacial quarry]

https://streamable.com/6ngd1i

[rich elbow]

But yeah I seen you mentioned it a couple times before 🙂

[glacial quarry]

i didn't report it, but 10 people probably reported me for it

[dapper river]

https://tenor.com/view/i-saw-what-you-just-deleted-gif-22613011

[lilac dust]

Who me? 😳

[dapper river]

whoever said the super 500 needs a bigger reticle

it does not

[lilac dust]

It was a late april fools joke

[dapper river]

[glacial quarry]

to get the tank in you gotta drive at a specific angle

[spiral folio]

500x zoom scope for the railgun

[glacial quarry]

so im pretty sure even lowering the entrance by like 1 inch will stop it

its just straight up impossible to lose defense on that map if you play like that

[acoustic seal]

my ass could never give feedback on this game, the list of complaints would be a mile long

[rich elbow]

👍

[glacial quarry]

not saying it already isn't cos of C1

[spiral folio]

And the tunnel to the server room

[glacial quarry]

[spiral folio]

In fact. Redo the whole map

[dapper river]

and they'd all be TERRIBLE suggestions

[spiral folio]

Cause the redesign for BT on exposure is 10x worse

[glacial quarry]

after kaleidoscope got patched exposure is like the worst map for offense atm

and hourglass is actually good now

anyway AA855N this is the portal code for 4v124 bots just set a passcode

was quite fun lol

good luck

[spiral folio]

First sector after exposure got redone is way better but the last sectors are worse. The very last sector is even worse thsn the last sector of kaleidoscope

[glacial quarry]

the thing is last sector of kaleidoscope

actually isn't as hard as people think

you just need a good tank with HE shell and a crew to protect the tank

[spiral folio]

It still sucks

[glacial quarry]

tank will literally wipe everything on the second floor

[dapper river]

but they haven't released the hourglass rework yet

[glacial quarry]

just have people to defend you from C5

its a guaranteed win

for offense

[spiral folio]

Hourglass rework gives troops plastic buckets tk make sandcastle barricades

[glacial quarry]

even before the rework it was guaranteed win too if you do it you will straight up kill everybody above

as long as your team protects u from c5

just 3 shots and u will probably get like 10 kills

any RAM or cars up there dont stand a chance too

[dapper river]

just like the army irl

[ebon pilot]

What's your area?

[spiral folio]

Somebody complained about the height of those barricades and I'm like

"Theyre that height because thats how tall they are"

[rich elbow]

UX/UI

[dapper river]

59.31340817160326, 18.06927731088562

[spiral folio]

UX =Uruguay Xtreme

[ebon pilot]

Thank you for the quality super ultrawide support

🙏

[glacial quarry]

also gav idk if you know anything about this but did chinese server close down?

because i play in asia and it used to be singapore/chinese servers but now its only singapore servers

[rich elbow]

If you notice any menus that don’t support it feel free to reach out

I have no idea about server related things, sorry!

[glacial quarry]

alright np

[spiral folio]

I noticed the tank hunter from bf1 isnt selectable as a class in 2042, please do the needful and solve this oversight

[glacial quarry]

wait whats ur area of speciality for this game

[rich elbow]

^

[spiral folio]

Solve for U

[rich elbow]

User Experience and User Interfaces

[glacial quarry]

ah alright

[rich elbow]

So design, menus, HUD, that sort of thing

[glacial quarry]

hmm right off the bat there's one UI bug i would like to point out

[spiral folio]

Cant just have a DOS prompt

[glacial quarry]

in tanks sometimes when u zoom in the camera goes completely black. i think it happens when u switch from third person too fast but im not sure

[spiral folio]

Keep your eyes open

[ebon pilot]

sounds like a render bug

[glacial quarry]

yeah probably

[rich elbow]

Doesn’t sound like UI but I do believe there is also places to report bugs, there’s a command for those links on this server right?

[glacial quarry]

ah yes right here https://streamable.com/6ngd1i at 24s

i shall report it

i think it happens when u switch from third person to 1st then immediately zoom

[rich elbow]

I’ve seen this clip more than my own mum

[spiral folio]

Depending which direction that means its scary or sad

[glacial quarry]

ill link another clip if you want

but wheres the report i cant find it

[spiral folio]

Lives with his aging parents
But cant stop watching it

[dapper river]

what all hind pilots deserve

and condor

[spiral folio]

Or has only seen the video once

[glacial quarry]

hind sweat squads are honestly worse than tank sweats

[dapper river]

"oh noes, fly away and repair me you guys! 😭"

[glacial quarry]

https://streamable.com/5za2ss more condor destruction

[dapper river]

I like to bully them with Rao and soflam. They might not die, but I'll be damned if I can't make them just not be able to attack

[spiral folio]

Oh speakin of condor
Lego is selling the osprey again

[glacial quarry]

if u see the killfeed our hind had the worst pilot in the world

that condor pilot is the second worst pilot in the world doesn't know theres a fly mode

[dapper river]

I'll never understand people who go "I've never flown in this game before, better steal the helicopter slot as fast as possible then immediately run it into the ground!!!!"

like go practice in a solo server you absolute melon

[glacial quarry]

most pilots i encounter in breakthrough are decently good

there are some absolutely 0 IQ ones tho

[radiant prism]

sounds about rit

thanks

[rich elbow]

For how to report bugs/send feedback

[radiant prism]

Hello Gav

new feedback channel opened it seems

thats nice

[white geyser]

Gav I wish you can tell one of the developers you work to add non lock-on missiles for all the vehicles, like the AA wildcat

[glacial quarry]

why does the bug report log require so much fucking info for a simple bug report lmfao

the hell is a dxdlag

[sturdy socket]

you're talking about like 70% of the playerbase

[lilac dust]

It allows the devs to collect info more personally from people's computers and track down the route of the problem more efficiently. Giving feedback on console wouldn't be as detail heavy because they don't have that feature

[sturdy socket]

there straight up needs to be an iq test and also the same empathy test given to prisoners to be allowed to fly vehicles

you're barred from air vehicles if you fail

[sour portal]

ive had so many straight up A.I. looking folks go into my heli that i was gonna fly with a friend and sit there for 5 minutes afk instead of giving up the gunner seat

or setting up an LAV with the 30mm gun in a nice spot (or MAV/Brawler) and someone to just take it and drive it into their spawn

[sturdy socket]

better idea, allow pilots to forcibly kick out players

[sour portal]

+1

[sturdy socket]

actually another idea

allow vehicle locks for teammates

you can't get in while locked unless you're the pilot who locked it, to prevent dumbshits stealing pilot and running into 50 enemies

[lilac dust]

WAIT ...... THERE'S ACTUALLY A KILL FEED TERM CALLED "SQUASHED" WHEN YOU GET SQUASHED BY A VEHICLE LMFAO THAT'S AMAZING 🤣

[ebon pilot]

yeah, it replaced the "terminated" term and it's just used for any physics kill

you can get squashed by falling on a rock the wrong way

[lilac dust]

Best change they've ever made to this game

[rich elbow]

https://tenor.com/view/zendaya-taking-notes-graham-norton-show-gif-24028470

[carmine rover]

meow

[low timber]

Or hit by one of the orbital rocket debris

[carmine rover]

we need a change in the killfeed. whenever someone get meleed it need to say “Bonked”

petition 🥺

[cerulean tulip]

Nah “ keked “

Or “john cenad”

Or “oofed”

[rich elbow]

mfw i get “bonked” by a sharpened axe

[low timber]

We need our character to say

Nanomachines son
When using a medpen

[ebon pilot]

"bonked" by a pickaxe

[carmine rover]

well.. have it only apply to the baton 🥺

[radiant prism]

and the stun baton!!

[cerulean tulip]

Battlefield new execution type “evaporator” battlefield disconnects you from the current server if you are executed with this new knife 😂

[radiant prism]

(reference my banner on my profile i'm really happy about it its so cool)

[carmine rover]

or have it say Bonked in the killfeed when you bash someone with Dozer’s shield

[cerulean tulip]

^ agreed

[radiant prism]

yes

[cerulean tulip]

We will never see any good updates games still treading

Goodnight

[severe sequoia]

Are the lmgs supposed to have a delay when shooting? Sometimes it happens, sometimes not

[fervent rose]

sprint to fire is longer on them

[tepid briar]

anyone know if 2042 has high ram usuage on PC? Is 8gb sufficient if i can't just upgrade? (edited)

[cosmic sequoia]

8 is not suffice

[edgy oriole]

8gb is its minimum requirement

[cosmic sequoia]

^^ 16 is the new min imo

[tepid briar]

okay, for this game it will use the full 16 maybe even more?

[spiral folio]

8 gig would strugglewith bf1

[edgy oriole]

16/32 is good for gaming in general, but for the official minimum requirements for the game is 8gb

so it should be fine but dont expect it to be great

[spiral folio]

Min requirements will get you like potato mode graphics at 20fps

[cosmic sequoia]

RAM the cheapest thing to upgrade too XD

and easiest

[spiral folio]

Unless you get like the next bleeding edge generation of ram

Otherwise

[ivory canopy]

Where do I send a bug report?

[spare depot]

is user.cfg still useless in this game?

like for seeing FPS

[balmy basin]

Hey, Where's the ishimura update?

[wise zodiac]

@radiant prism, they're still looking into your issue, fyi

I'd probably reply to the modmail if I was you and ask for an update.

[acoustic seal]

it randomly started working a couple patches ago

[remote kiln]

isn't necessary, open console in-game execute perfoverlay.drawfps 1 and it'll turn it on

[mortal socket]

Why the wildcat feels so weak against transport heli?

[ivory canopy]

Transports are kinda OP

[copper ice]

Everything is weak against transport heli

[mortal socket]

But the wildcat is an AA vehicle. His role is to kill aircrafts with his cannons. None would like to combat an AA vehicle with clear vision of your heli

Nice balance

[copper ice]

transport heli with 50mm literally wins against wildcat

In a dps contest

One of the reasons i uninstalled

30mm wildcat as well, which is best dps against aircraft

picked it on a BT map specifically to counter their transport heli and it just killed me first

[mortal socket]

The 7.62mm does more dmg to heli than the 30mm

[copper ice]

30mm wildcat is ass against everything other than helis but transport helis hust have fucking insane health

So they still lose

[arctic grove]

is 2042 not launching for amnyone>

?????

ea and 2042 refuse to even launvh

[copper ice]

ea launcher issues

its very buggy

[arctic grove]

2042 in general wont launch

[copper ice]

Open task manager and close any processes it might have that are open

it has to launch ea first to launch 2042

Its likely an ea launcher issue

[mortal socket]

That's the role of AA to take down aircrafts and you can't take the transport heli. Weird balance there that a littlebird heli can take the transport heli and the wildcat not.

[copper ice]

very weird balancr

2042 is not particularly well balanced

at all

[arctic grove]

keep it that way

its fun

[copper ice]

fun for the heli users

not fun for anyone else

[mortal socket]

Yeah I see the reason know why people like to play portal in bf3

Because that aa can take any aircraft

[arctic grove]

yo can we get the longsword added to 2042

[copper ice]

Funny that portal has better balance than the main game

[radiant maple]

Motherfucking Chris Kyle

I mean we still won but jeez

Idk how these snipers seem so high up

[arctic grove]

2142 in portal

[mortal socket]

You can take the heli with the wildcat, BUT you need 2 more passengers and none would like to stay to help.

[copper ice]

if you got the 60mm flak and the rockets yeah, but its so hard to get people to stay in it

[mortal socket]

That's the problem here in bf2042. The most people don't like to drop ammo crates and revive. They just play by themselves.

[remote kiln]

*every BF game in history

[acoustic seal]

why would i revive and resupply someone who doesn't get kills

[cosmic sequoia]

so uhh your team can win

[mortal socket]

Not on every game at least in bf4 they revive you and drop ammo crates

[acoustic seal]

what are they doing to help me win?

[remote kiln]

now that's just not true lol

[cosmic sequoia]

sparing your team the death, another body onthe point

[remote kiln]

battlefield 3 and 4 half the playerbase do not give a shit if you're alive or dead

[copper ice]

time spent reviving is time that could be spent pewpewing

[cosmic sequoia]

jfc bro thinks hes master chief

[remote kiln]

you shouldn't be surprised that people's first thought is themselves

[cosmic sequoia]

i dont need team mates >:)

not surprised

lmao

[mortal socket]

Every time you deploy is 1 ticket less. Reviving doesn't cost tickets.

[cosmic sequoia]

just cringey

[remote kiln]

reviving can cost tickets

if they revive and you both die, that's 2 lost

[copper ice]

its rare that the handful of tickets you save from reviving has an effect

[remote kiln]

its not a case of "person died revive always"

[mortal socket]

If both die of course.

[cosmic sequoia]

who said that

lmao

[mortal socket]

But what about both dont?

[cosmic sequoia]

reviving is just important. like anything else in the game, obviously, don't be a moron and do it in moderation and as the situation needs

[remote kiln]

dude if there's an enemy within 50 meters of your dead body, you better not be revived

[copper ice]

i do agree its better to revive than not but ive had more flubbed revives than people ignoring my revive

[remote kiln]

or be asking for revives

[cosmic sequoia]

bro never plays in cqb :/

[remote kiln]

if it's CQB there's 12 players in any one area, it doesn't apply

[cosmic sequoia]

thats why the medic class exists lol. they stay in the back and heal/pick up

thats why their guns should be restricted to light guns

[remote kiln]

smgs?

[cosmic sequoia]

sure

[remote kiln]

terrible idea

[cosmic sequoia]

ok

[mortal socket]

At least bf4 every medic revive but with low health

Sometimes can get you killed

[carmine rover]

u hold the revive

for full health

[remote kiln]

^

and I don't know what game you're playing but "every medic reviving", is not the experience of 99% of players for battlefield 4

[copper ice]

give recon smgs and give medics sniper rifles

[cosmic sequoia]

that's what we did

we have "medics" pushing with assault rifles and sniping xD

[sour portal]

in the infantry maps it is the experience 100%, the game is just split between communities now

[mortal socket]

Go play conquest on metro and you will see they will revive you if your body is not in the sight of the enemy.

[remote kiln]

metro?

[mortal socket]

Bf4

[remote kiln]

well of course cause the map is barely 500m wide lol

go on golmud railway and see what happens

[copper ice]

tbh the best spec for sniping really is falck

[remote kiln]

running farming simulator is not an optimal gauge of if the playerbase revives or not

[sour portal]

any of the bf2042 breakthrough maps are infantry hellholes too, exposure, spearhead, discarded and some more are not much bigger than metro/locker

and you have way more engineers and especially assaults (because of the giant amount of explosives they have compared to the others) on them

[remote kiln]

yeah and in that limited experience of infantry only, of course it's going to be true

but that's not the entire game

as much as metro only 24/7 forever servers will have people believe

[sour portal]

its like the second biggest gamemmode

and all the maps are like that

[remote kiln]

2042 only has 2, actual gamemodes

[copper ice]

chokepoints yeah but the average map size is still drastically larger

[mortal socket]

But they have better design. That's why bf3 and bf4 were amazing

[remote kiln]

conquest and breakthrough, it's not the point

[copper ice]

Not much cover in a lot of places

[sour portal]

maybe hourglass is different but thats because its even worse because of the giant open areas

[sour portal]

yep, thats why the infantry all bunches up on the points anyway in any mode basically

[cosmic sequoia]

cant believe we lost sector artillery

[sour portal]

ridicilous that a thor sitting in base is basically at 100% value in any gamemode

[copper ice]

i miss bfv reinforcements so bad

[cosmic sequoia]

they don't have a qa team so they never tested that

[cosmic sequoia]

i just miss squad points

and good squad management

the fact that squads are just 4 is such an L too imo

[copper ice]

squads are borderline non existent in 2042

[remote kiln]

heres what you actually mean:

it's ridiculous that any vehicle being in spawn has value
its not exclusive to the TOR

[copper ice]

you just happen to have 3 randoms you can spawn on and revive

[sour portal]

thats how breakthrough kaleidoscope and the hovercraft got through

[copper ice]

you dont need a qa team to test those

[cosmic sequoia]

idk it's pretty exclusive to the TOR.

[copper ice]

That was just shit development

[remote kiln]

seen any wildcats hanging around spawn?

[cosmic sequoia]

if a wildcat is in the spawn, he's losing so much range with AA..

[sour portal]

well the thor can sit on any hill in spawn and has a point and click game with hitscan, two shot any heli and most tanks with 0 counterplay

[remote kiln]

tanks on breakthrough maps?

[cosmic sequoia]

TOR tanks exclusively

well i don't play BT

so

I can't speak for that

[remote kiln]

it is not hitscan

the shots have to be lead

[copper ice]

tor benefits from being further away more than other vehicles do, but camping is universal

[cosmic sequoia]

this 110%

[sour portal]

helis can still get value on some maps with cover picking off infantry and it has counter options to atleast play the game for a little bit

[cosmic sequoia]

idm any other vehicle sitting back there. such a waste

[copper ice]

no one wants to push when c5 exists

[cosmic sequoia]

too op

[sour portal]

i can sit in spawn in breakaway and instantly hit the condors in the US spawn without having to put in any effort, you dont really have to lead the shots at all

[cosmic sequoia]

tanks are so fucking weak too

[remote kiln]

unless the wildcat person cannot aim a demolishing 2 turret gun at a Heli, it is not getting value

transport Heli excluded

[remote kiln]

no, you do, it is not hitscan

hitscan means not having to lead

[sour portal]

well the transport is the most the attackers get in breakthrough and it can definetily work,0 and on conquest the map is bigg enough for counterplay with terrain

[remote kiln]

it dies as soon as you click

[copper ice]

vehicles are too strong at range and too weak up close

[sour portal]

yea while there maybe is a technical difference there is 0 practical

[cosmic sequoia]

bf5 allowed you to like completely deck out your tank for certain playstyles too

[remote kiln]

I don't know what helicopter is going to "counterplay" a wildcat

[copper ice]

same issue as bfv but exemplified by c5 having 3 ammo on spawn and launchers being worse than bfv

[sour portal]

the only thing you have to "lead" is the weapon sway

[cosmic sequoia]

totally possible

you land a tow missile and 6 127mm rockets on one, it's gone.

the little bird can just out maneuver it with AGM

[copper ice]

simple; see if it has 30mm
if it does, you lose
if it doesn't, you outplayed it

[sour portal]

counterplay=not fight it and be somewhere else ? Or hover directly above where it cant shoot

[remote kiln]

that's not counterplaying

it's avoiding them

[cosmic sequoia]

...?

[sour portal]

???

lol

you are COUNTERING their value lil bro

you ok ?

lmao

[cosmic sequoia]

you can definitely counter play it by hovering around its turret

ikr

he has to pick apart every technicality

[remote kiln]

oh nvm I missed the turret

[cosmic sequoia]

lmao

[remote kiln]

good point I suppose, but very situational

[copper ice]

its not really countering to avoid them

[mortal socket]

Any heli can counter it if he's a good pilot

[remote kiln]

please stop giving this example "bad and good" ratios here

[copper ice]

flying around the turret restrictions is legit

[sour portal]

apart from the attack heli which is so unbelievably bad

it gets oneshot by a thor 💀

[cosmic sequoia]

I'm a heli main and I have a harder time with TOR tanks than wildcats

[remote kiln]

I despise this "if x thing is good then x is true" like yeah duh

[mortal socket]

But in real life none would like to combat a damn aa going straight to him

[hybrid totem]

which heli

[copper ice]

that's because tor is stupid from concept to design to gameplay

[remote kiln]

not in real life

no helicopter, is going to fly towards a AA in a BF game

[copper ice]

apart from transport heli

[remote kiln]

even in 4 with TV missiles

[cosmic sequoia]

hokum/apache is mainly what I fly. they get me in the little bird sometimes too

[mortal socket]

Here people do in bf2042

[copper ice]

[remote kiln]

infact TVs the entire point was to, fly away

[hybrid totem]

I respect the attack chopper flying

[cosmic sequoia]

thanks partner

[sour portal]

fr

[hybrid totem]

But ain't nothing make me get in a TOR or alleycat faster than dying to a little bird

[mortal socket]

Always a stealth heli with a bomb drop to kill me and doing maneuvers to avoid killing with the cannons

[cosmic sequoia]

stealth helis are lame

i do not fly them

[sour portal]

not as lame as little birds going for air targets only

[cosmic sequoia]

that

is a special type of aids

the little bird is just busted... can be repaired, shot AA from

[sour portal]

the thing is everything does too mach damage, a single overflight can kill you

[cosmic sequoia]

destroy armor and air targets and infantry

[hybrid totem]

Little birds are the anti-air option for helis, which is dumb because it's the only one without lockons for air targets

[cosmic sequoia]

yeah lmaooo

makes no sense

[ivory canopy]

Alright I've got a video and I'll submit my bug report to the forums

[sour portal]

same with tor against helis or the transport helis for infantry, theyd do better with slowing everything a bit down

[hybrid totem]

I think little birds need an HP nerf

[cosmic sequoia]

yeah

their guns are too far range too

[hybrid totem]

yessss

[mortal socket]

I told it before a littlebird do more dmg to a transport heli than a wildcat that is an AA vehicle.

[cosmic sequoia]

the little 7.62 or w.e

[copper ice]

thats WHY its the anti air option

Lock on is dogshit in 2042

[sour portal]

if they nerfed the littlebird countermeasures time a bit that would be nice

[cosmic sequoia]

yeah fr

[hybrid totem]

ahhh the lock on hater

[cosmic sequoia]

they just need to nerf the fucking gun

it's literally insane

[ivory canopy]

tbh I think they should nerf repair rates from within vehicles

[hybrid totem]

Are you the type of lock on user to shoot as soon as you get the lock?

[cosmic sequoia]

even the 20mm cannons are strong against air vehicles

[copper ice]

they built the game like everyone was gonna be using lock on all the time so flares and smoke are fucked

[cosmic sequoia]

i mean they are

[ivory canopy]

You can bait countermeasures though

[hybrid totem]

everyone is using lock on all the time

[remote kiln]

you're totally misunderstanding the point

[cosmic sequoia]

yeah idk, air is kind of fucked rn

like

[remote kiln]

the minigun under all circumstances should beat lock on weapons period

[hybrid totem]

I fly choppers and jets regularly, and just as regularly die to lock ons, so I guess I am missing the point

[copper ice]

baiting countermeasures means nothing when you cant hurt them until its over and they can just leave

[hybrid totem]

it does

[sour portal]

wait the thing that doesnt have counterplay should beat the one that has ?

[copper ice]

haha i made them use flare and fly away :^) like shit bro it aint doing anything to kill them

[mortal socket]

That's the thing is not happening that a dual 30mm cannons cannot take a damn attack heli without going through 2 heat

[remote kiln]

yeah cause you need to you know, aim the target

[sour portal]

with the size and mobility of attack/transport and jett it really isnt that hard

[copper ice]

tbh if the fucking minigun on the little bird is hurting vehicles so should my assault rifle

[remote kiln]

it is when they have 2 engineers in the back

[ivory canopy]

I had a match where I wasn't having too much trouble KOing multiple vehicles with AA. The one that gave me problems was a condor actually playing rather smart

[remote kiln]

or the attack heli strafes your jet

[copper ice]

transport helis dont die to AA if theyre smart

[remote kiln]

killing one is the exception, not the rule

[ivory canopy]

That's part of the issue

[sour portal]

yea how many times does that happen and why should it be balances around a single heli with an entire squad working together

[ivory canopy]

40mmGL on condor/hind is insane when positioned right

[copper ice]

positioning is a lot easier when you have a propeller instead of wheels too

[mortal socket]

Aa rockets feel so weak you hit 2 and the aircraft should be left with 25%hp but is just 50% gp

[sour portal]

also the map boundaries are WAYYY too small for a jett to succesfully to hit and runs and not be fired upon all the time

[remote kiln]

how many times? statistically there's 16 squads in a team for 64 players, which means assuming 3 have to be competent a 1/16, per game, every time it dies and spawns has a chance of it happening (aka, very good odds)

[mortal socket]

I get more angry when it has 2 engineers repairing it. No counterplay

[ivory canopy]

Hence why I suggested they nerf repair rates when the repair tool user is within a vehicle

[mortal socket]

The suggestion is buff the cannons and aa rockets

Make then to avoid the aa like other bf games

[copper ice]

no vehicle should have repairs from the inside

[hybrid totem]

jet ram

[ivory canopy]

^ this

[remote kiln]

the AA rockets don't need buffed

[sour portal]

there is still the odds of 3 good squads to actually play AIR then the attack heli and then play 2 engineers

[remote kiln]

they already have insane range

[copper ice]

flares need nerf

[remote kiln]

the main guns and 30mm does need buffed

[copper ice]

its not rockets being weak its flares being strong

[sour portal]

of the wild cat or what now

[mortal socket]

Yeah at the cost of 25% hp yeah sure and in portal you can take them easily

[remote kiln]

dudes that's 3x less statistically, than 1 good squad

the maths doesn't work

[copper ice]

idk, when i see people in heli with open slots i often pick engie if im sweating

[ivory canopy]

Taking out a loaded transport is still possible, it just requires a LOT of dedication across the entire team, something that you won't often get.

[copper ice]

i find the same thing to happen if im the one flying

[copper ice]

nah i dont think a full transport heli is gonna die to anything other than the entire enemy team of vehicles focusing it

[remote kiln]

yes the wildcat

[sour portal]

im agreeing with transport being to tanky for sure and reps need to be nerfed+nerf its hp so it doesnt survive 3! lock on rockets hitting

[copper ice]

if you're on BT you dont get a bunch of vehicles to fight back with

[sour portal]

the wildcat can literally take out any air vehicle in a single magazine with the 30mm

[sour portal]

yep

[copper ice]

not transport helis

🥹

[remote kiln]

which isn't a transport helicopter

[ivory canopy]

Doesn't even take vehicles

[sour portal]

no also a transport

especially the condor

it gets obliterated

[mortal socket]

But the point is to make the pilot to know when to use the flares. If he uses it in the wrong time it should have a punishment

[copper ice]

you aint killing a transport heli without vehicles

[remote kiln]

a AA is not 1 magging a transport helicopter unless it's right below it

[ivory canopy]

If you have an entire team of Lis players the odds wouldn't be good for any vehicle.

[remote kiln]

it doesn't even do enough damage to bring it to 0

[ivory canopy]

I'm not saying one person can do it.

[copper ice]

the condor literally wins a 1v1 against 30mm wildcat if it has 50mm cannon

[ivory canopy]

But then that goes back to my point about team dedication.

Do I agree with you guys that transport vehicles are overpowered? Yes.

[copper ice]

a full team of lis is going to get steamrolled by everything that isnt the transport heli

[arctic grove]

How the f does the glock kills so fast even without headshots?

[sour portal]

only if iit can get in position directly above then yea for sure its OP af

[mortal socket]

Of course in a single if they don't move or are close to you

[copper ice]

ive seen transport helis survive over 9 separate lis focusing on them

[remote kiln]

they can definitely survive that

[sour portal]

its is mega easy to dodge lis rockets from average players

[copper ice]

thats not even counting having 2 repairmen

[copper ice]

glock is strong

[arctic grove]

I know

but it sometimes feels like it kills way faster than it should

It's not a complain

[copper ice]

The issue right now is that flares dont have a wrong time to use

[arctic grove]

just, how?

[sour portal]

i fly the hind a lot and the only thing that can kill you is the wildcat and a big amount of lockons

[arctic grove]

yeah

they're a get out of jail free card

[remote kiln]

it's a semi automatic weapon with a high DPS, that's how it's supposed to feel

[mortal socket]

In bf4 you had to retreat if you used the flares,but here they dont

[remote kiln]

BF4.. using flares

nobody used flares unless you were the gunner lol

[mortal socket]

Ecm jammer also applies

[remote kiln]

you definitely don't need to retreat using ECM

infact the good players never did

[mortal socket]

But they had counterplay with being down with 1 rocket

[remote kiln]

there was no counterplay

you could not counter it in BF4

[mortal socket]

Oh really?

[remote kiln]

the ECM and flares instantly reset their cooldown on re entry

so yes, there was no counterplay

and that was the optimal strategy

[mortal socket]

What about those good people predicting the rockets to take down an heli?

[remote kiln]

..?

that never happened lol

[mortal socket]

?

[remote kiln]

they never predicted rockets

[arctic grove]

you can't say so

[sour portal]

jetts were wayy stronger in bf4 and actually had an impact

[arctic grove]

I did

[remote kiln]

they used the TOW missiles

that's not prediction, it's guiding

[arctic grove]

I used the recoiless

[remote kiln]

which isn't even countered by ECM at all so what's the point

[mortal socket]

Man I could kill the littlebird and attack with the maws or rpg

[remote kiln]

..? dude those aren't impacted by helicopter countermeasures

[mortal socket]

And I hit the with an aa rocket would kill them with just 2 hit from aa rockets

[remote kiln]

they are dumb missiles

[mortal socket]

If I hit them

Here they just do 25% of the hp a single aa rocket

[remote kiln]

what does that have anything to do with countermeasures?

[mortal socket]

Need to do half hp dmg a rocket

To make them not being aggressive

[sour portal]

nah the recoilless rifle is strong enough since it has no fall off

[remote kiln]

dude, RPGs, and dumb missiles, are not impacted by countermeasures

[mortal socket]

That's true

[frank sequoia]

rockets need to create total destruction

[remote kiln]

did you miss the entire point about instant reloads for countermeasures?

[mortal socket]

Half hp with aa rockets

[remote kiln]

sorry my guy, you will never fire a AA rocket to begin with against a top attack heli team in BF4 lol

[mortal socket]

The normal rocket launcher needs kill instantly an attack heli

[frank sequoia]

some games we have people knocking out the air vehicles, some games the air holds superiority. all games is just the way she goes bubs

[sour portal]

thats also because the map had a million more ways to fly the heli behind cover tbh

[remote kiln]

it's not

it's because the countermeasures can instantly reset

which is what I've said 3 times

the optimal strategy was to get out the Heli and back in to reset the cooldown in mid air

you will switch positions with the gunner to keep it in the air

[mortal socket]

At least you could make them retreat if your team had a lot of aa rockets launchers

[frank sequoia]

i like to shoot down the guided missiles

[remote kiln]

and why a grand total of 0 attack heli pilots used lock ons who were competent (excl gunner ground lockons)

[remote kiln]

uh yeah no dude, ECM prevents all lock ons, period

you are never firing a missile against a ECM/flare duo

[mortal socket]

I know that ecm prevents lock on, but it exist cooldowns and not everyone had a copilot to reset the cooldown

[remote kiln]

you don't need a pilot to reset the cooldown

you just get out, and back in

[sour portal]

why cant i find anything on that online

[safe bramble]

any server i played on banned anyone for doing that

[sour portal]

or even see it in high level gameplay videos

[safe bramble]

so that argument doesn't really stick

[remote kiln]

that's easier to do on custom servers

not so easy on official

[sour portal]

bf4 official servers are 100% dead lol

[remote kiln]

yeah they are now, BF4 was never in the "game state now", past tense

[mortal socket]

At least like I said you make them retreat. But, here they don't because the aa rocket do 25% hp instead of 50%hp like bf4. They can escape here with literally with 25% hp.

[remote kiln]

talking about 3 or 4 in terms of now is a time capsule

[sour portal]

i used to play when it released and i have not even noticed a jump in an out abuse but maybe i missed it idk

[remote kiln]

the helicopters also lost basically all their options against it

it's always a balance situation my guy

AA rockets did 50% in 4, helicopters also had TV missiles, jets had jdams, none of that is in 2042

[safe bramble]

mfw tv missiles were given to infantry before a vehicle

mfw thermal was given to infantry before a vehicle

[remote kiln]

yeah my personal why the fuck moment too

[safe bramble]

2042 feels like the culmination of infantry players whining they can't solo everything

[remote kiln]

TVs will never return to vehicles though unfortunately

[safe bramble]

back to bf4 it is then

also

attack heli gunner is literally the only thing in the game without a secondary

like even the STEALTH HELI has a fucking secondary

[mortal socket]

Stealth heli with the drop bomb is insane

[safe bramble]

stealth heli conceptually shouldn't exist

[mortal socket]

You can't be taken down with the aa rockets

[safe bramble]

tbf nobody thinks aa is annoying because of the rockets

[mortal socket]

Without being first hit by the bomb

[slender isle]

I mean, you can look at the main tank and the transport heli to see you can’t solo them

[sour portal]

well you are ONE infantry guy vs a heli it shouldnt be that way anyway

[safe bramble]

main tank can def be solod

tor tank

[hybrid totem]

easy solution! Make the bombs dropping the gunner secondary

[remote kiln]

I'm not of the opinion the stealth Heli shouldn't exist

[sour portal]

a heli who is using all his bombs

[slender isle]

With C5 sure. Not at a distance

[safe bramble]

javelins

[remote kiln]

more variety is always better, but it's a case of what should turn off the stealth

[slender isle]

But you could solo a tank in previous games with C5

[safe bramble]

three things is this game shouldn't exist: tor, lis and stealth helis

[mortal socket]

I am the wildcat that if a stealth heli can kill you by flying around you to avoid the lock on

[slender isle]

Aps or smoke or insta repair or Crawford repair

[remote kiln]

(don't tell people that in 3 as a tank you can survive 3 C4 explosions with a trick)

[sour portal]

i feel like noone is playing the stealth healy anyway since it gets annihilated by any other air

[safe bramble]

crawford cannot out repair a jav

especially not after his nerf

and if he gets out, shoot him?

[sour portal]

the wildcat obliterates any stealth heli bro

[hybrid totem]

Stealth heli has definitely dropped in popularity recently. Seeing the nightbird make a comeback. Bleck

[slender isle]

If you’re using a javelin you’re at least a couple hundred meters away. Plus, if it’s a tor they’ve got aps active constantly from an Irish

[mortal socket]

Stealth mode should be turned off if you get hit

[sour portal]

lol

[hybrid totem]

it does, kinda?

[safe bramble]

as a little bird main from bf4, 2042s nightbird is legitimately disgusting in every aspect

[remote kiln]

it would be too if it was in 4

would be the same reaction

Shanghai stealth Heli would be a bloodbath

[hybrid totem]

This is so wrong. I've been killed by javelins like 10m away

[safe bramble]

well your first mistake

was playing shanghai

[mortal socket]

Man, a stealth heli flying to me to drop a bomb and then use rocket lock on

[remote kiln]

unfortunately too much of the playerbase liked pretty lights with levolution, was never voluntary

[slender isle]

That’s cause you’re shit lmao

[hybrid totem]

wow.

[slender isle]

If they’re 10m away you should shoot them

[mortal socket]

If you don't get killed by the bombs you are lucky

[hybrid totem]

...you a tanker?

[slender isle]

Or pop thermal smoke or aps

[safe bramble]

2042 tank mains dont exist

[slender isle]

Or have your gunner shoot them

[safe bramble]

2042 tanks make me sick

physically

[slender isle]

I’m hyped AF for the tank thermals

[hybrid totem]

tank main, shank shmain, I asked if you were a tanker

[mortal socket]

Thermal smke is just to avoid 1 hit

[remote kiln]

👋

[hybrid totem]

Was gonna say, there's definitely tank mains

[mortal socket]

I would like the smoke to avoid lock on for a few second

[slender isle]

If I can actually grab one then yes. But I’m usually an infantry guy.

[safe bramble]

top stat is tor, opinions disregarded from here on out

[slender isle]

Usually a medic

[hybrid totem]

I am a very aggressive tanker. As such sometimes I get very close to the enemy lines where the javs are

[safe bramble]

tor also doesn't even qualify as a tank

that thing is AA, flat out

[hybrid totem]

Disagree, it wrecks everything

[safe bramble]

including bypassing aps

[thick shadow]

petition for a new idle animation where your specialist plays flappy bird

[safe bramble]

very good balance

[remote kiln]

I was never a fan of it bypassing APS

never should have

[safe bramble]

ripple effects response to fixing tank camping was adding the tor

ngl, anyone who contributed to making the tor should be fired

[hybrid totem]

Where's Znath to tell us how realistic it is that a railgun shell can go through aps

[safe bramble]

is znath also a lis main

[slender isle]

Okay, so again, use APS or thermal smoke once they lock on

[hybrid totem]

TOR is the inevitable evolution of the railgun, which originated in 4

[slender isle]

Or aim at their general direction with a HE shell and nail them

[hybrid totem]

Beign aggressive means you sometimes die before being able to retreat

[safe bramble]

for a futuristic game 2042 is, some basic old vehicles like the attack helicopter have downgraded in performance

like idk

and im just spitballing here

[hybrid totem]

and if you are using an HE shell I can tell you are no tanker

[safe bramble]

tows going slower/doing less damage

agms being removed from an attack vehicle

tvs being removed from an attack vehicle

tanks having worse performance to older tanks

[remote kiln]

you're not just spitballing, it was true

[slender isle]

I’m not gonna use the others. HE nails infantry and tanks alike why would I change it

[mortal socket]

Thermal smoke just prevent lock for two seconds

[remote kiln]

the vehicles were basically taken to the scrap heap during season 0

[hybrid totem]

Because MPAT also nails infantry and armor, but does more damage

[remote kiln]

they got utterly obliterated with nerfs

jets lost their ground lock ons etc, for a time

[slender isle]

Mpat has 2ft of blast radius

[safe bramble]

jets are so pathetic i see those things sit on the vehicle menu for 3+ minutes

even i wont touch that shit

[hybrid totem]

If you need splash damage, I mean...

[slender isle]

Dude what? 1 tank shell plus splash = infantry nightmare

[hybrid totem]

That just tells me you prioritize infantry farming over removing enemy vehicles

[remote kiln]

uh no my guy

[slender isle]

Yeah cause I can take out the air vehicles in 1 hit

[remote kiln]

that's stupid lol

the vast majority of the players in a match are infantry, not in vehicles

[safe bramble]

tanks get bullied by infantry in 2042 lmao

[remote kiln]

literally

casket case of a vehicle

[safe bramble]

i've seen more suicide c5 chargers in 2042 than 4

and i've played 4 for way longer

[slender isle]

It’s better to kill 20 infantry as a tank than 3 tanks

[slender isle]

Mackay grapple

Only way to do it

[safe bramble]

mackay also shouldn't conceptually exist

wow

[hybrid totem]

Oh oh oh they nerfed the c4 jeep. I can forgive so many things but that... that's just evil

[remote kiln]

Mackay, conceptually yes

[safe bramble]

alot of things in this game shouldn't conceptually exist

def no

[remote kiln]

tor and Stealth eh not really

[safe bramble]

strafing speed increase AND unlimited verticality

fuck no

id rather play tank on golmud railway vs a squad of 5 c4 jeeps

[slender isle]

Mackay is great. Most fun you can have in the game right there

[hybrid totem]

I want a stealth tank

[sour portal]

i feel like its mostly everyone playing engineer and the fact that people spawn on the helis constantly and drop on you with no counterplay

[hybrid totem]

gimme a silencer twenty feet long

[remote kiln]

me saying yes meant I agreed it shouldn't exist

[safe bramble]

i feel like helis are only good in 2042 because its immune to alot of the movement and c5 bullshit that ground vehicles have to deal with

[hybrid totem]

that is one of the basic reasons that aircraft are sometimes preferable to ground vehicles

[slender isle]

Dozer is also fun. But having that grapple is great

[hybrid totem]

But even then transports are never completely immune to sundance/mackay

[mortal socket]

Oh how to not forget when the dozer could tank a hole tank shell

[safe bramble]

ngl bf4 shields should've been as good as dozer

make them actually scary

but i guess too many aek players cried about having to use their brain

[limpid pond]

Any news on when the event drops?

Hopefully tomorrow?

[mortal socket]

What event?

[remote kiln]

everybody forgets dozer tanks tank shells cause well, it's just not fun to play dozer

[safe bramble]

false, dozer is my favorite specialist

[remote kiln]

you can leave

[safe bramble]

tor user

[hybrid totem]

Can Dozer tank a TOR shell

[limpid pond]

Mid season event

[safe bramble]

if tor is as busted as i continue to believe it is

yes

[remote kiln]

yes, even HMG

[mortal socket]

That's the thing a hole tank shell you absorb

[limpid pond]

I'm tryna buy or earn that falck skin

[remote kiln]

ironic he tanks 15m explosive shells and not an MGL launcher

[limpid pond]

Looks so crispy

[mortal socket]

Balance team needs new workers😂

[glacial quarry]

hi

[warped kelp]

About time super500 and g57 are made primary weapons. Nice balancing.

[limpid pond]

Yo they should make a new universal camo but make it the camo of mackays and Sundance burning outfits

[rocky bear]

but money

[ivory canopy]

You mean an adaptive camo?

[dapper river]

yes, fool more idiots into buying skins that make you glow and stand out on the battlefield, I want it to be easier to see you

[limpid pond]

Precisely I enjoy it because 80% of the bf players suck. I can be a glowstick and still kill thsm.before they kill me

[acoustic seal]

you pick the shiniest skin to strike fear into your enemies

bless [GAME NAME REDACTED TO PROTECT SANITY] for letting me put metallic pink on infantry

take the fucking vehicles off of spearhead attack

[haughty sparrow]

wat

[acoustic seal]

first sector defense is the one of the worst experiences because you're immediately faced down by a tank, a mav (tank), and several jeeps (each one has a tank cannon for some reason)

and a hind (flying tank)

[quiet shell]

[haughty sparrow]

wait so lemme get this straight again, exodus conquest has different maps than conquest regular??

[acoustic seal]

yes, it includes the season maps and a handful from portal

[haughty sparrow]

Ok

[copper ice]

you don't like 15 cannons?

[arctic grove]

I’d be fine if BT just got rid of everything except 1-2 tanks per team

[balmy basin]

When I select a point I should spot on it not at the bottom of the building where it is

[arctic grove]

Any objective on a roof is the worst to contend/reinforce

[acoustic seal]

IFVs need to be in the same category as tanks if they're gonna give each one 3 explosive gun seats

[arctic grove]

if only we had BF4s vehicle selection system

[naive magnet]

In particular Orbital’s E2 sucks

The only way up is a set of stairs or a zip line from E1

It needs another way to get up

[arctic grove]

Ooh yeah

That’s a transport objective right there

I know they wanted to utilize that building but there’s gotta be a better way, or just outright move the objective somewhere else and make the top of the E1 building just accessible without any objectives

[acoustic seal]

can they also tone down the heat seeking frag grenades while they're at it

[naive magnet]

Being able to contest from the roof is silly

If you can’t get on the roof practically

[hybrid totem]

I'd be fine if they added an equitable number of vehicles to the defenders

[acoustic seal]

the goal here is LESS EXPLOSIVES

[copper ice]

Good luck with that

[proper karma]

ha ha grenade goes boom

[rocky bear]

haha more boom

[sharp marten]

New bf update dropped

[latent widget]

wow finally closer to the graphics of the new frosbite 4 engine will be

[frank sequoia]

Is this rohblocks

lmao what a fucking pathetic match of valpariso

all good though...broke 1k score and the 2 that tried to shit talk me (one being a squadmate) were both under 600

Yo that’s crazy no way there’s no way that’s you when playing 2042

Like dude that’s insane

Holy fucking shit

[radiant prism]

Bro is gaming for real

[edgy oriole]

[radiant prism]

That’s awesome

[hybrid totem]

Did you know that main gun on the CAV has two modes?

[cosmic dragon]

Only real motherfuckers

[hybrid totem]

50mm on the transports though, yeah that's just skill

[kindred flint]

you mean a worthless gunner position

[fair jacinth]

50mm cannon on the transport heli is only good to destroy a cancer wildcat or rail tank but it's shit for farming

[kindred flint]

unless youre in a duo+ in the transport its absolutely worthless

[slender isle]

What does this even mean

[fair jacinth]

Breaktrough is amazing when a single transport helicopter can eradicate an entire team of 32 players and the game is ruined

[kindred flint]

theyre shit weapons?

imagine dice not thinking through stronger repairing engineers

[hybrid totem]

they're not shit, you're just not great with em

[acoustic seal]

they kill vehicles but have no splash = useless for shooting mans

[slender isle]

50mm 1 hit infantry

Now if you said the 30mm I’d agree

[kindred flint]

the 50mm is objectively shit when your pilot will never give you a clear shot because he has ADD and must constantly twitch around

[slender isle]

Terrible weapon after the 90 needs

[fair jacinth]

Hope DICE make the Super Hind more stronger

[kindred flint]

long reload time, and low ammo makes it worthless

theres no reason to use it anymore...this isnt launch month of 2042 where it was actually broken af

[slender isle]

I mean I’m not saying it’s the best. But it’s not bad

[radiant prism]

Ye the 50mm is far from egregious

[slender isle]

40mm nades are still the best

[radiant prism]

It’s good against vehicles

[hybrid totem]

50mm is also objectively shit when you don't look at where your pilot is pointing you

[fair jacinth]

Yeah 40mm is amazing

In Spearhead map it's insane

[kindred flint]

what pilot? the piece of shit bailed out using a transport as his personal fast travel

[radiant prism]

I remember when people would yell at people for having the 40mm equipped instead of the 50mm

[fair jacinth]

You can get at least 200 kill with the 40mm GL

[kindred flint]

i had a BT months ago on exposure with a good pilot ...the GL is absolutely disgusting to farm respawners outside the mountain

then he fucked up by literally hovering at the tunnel level after we unlocked the final sector for over a minute, totally gave up early position advantage then he almost instantly got shot out of the sky when flying up

[fair jacinth]

The problem with the 40mm GL when you kill everyone, there's at least 20 or 25 mad players on your ass

[kindred flint]

then the transport gets shot out of the sky? win win for both teams imo

[fair jacinth]

The only thing who can destroy the transport is the Wildcat even if you are really good pilot

[kindred flint]

nah i read on reddit that lis' just 360 no scope them constantly

[remote linden]

Why doesn't the BSV count as a Marksman weapon for the battlepass daily?

[kindred flint]

for the 2 marksman kills?

#direct-communication message

[fair jacinth]

Bmac which servers u play? EU or NA?

[kindred flint]

na

[remote linden]

Yes. I got 12 kills with the BSV and didn't finish the "get two marksman kills"

[hybrid totem]

were they at distance?

[kindred flint]

look at the discord link

[remote linden]

Oh that's stupid. I hate sniping which is why I used the bsv.

[kindred flint]

im not even bothering with it

[hybrid totem]

I never use sniper rifles or DMRs but it still only took me like 10 minutes

[remote linden]

I shouldn't need to look up twitter for stuff like that. Bad design.

[hybrid totem]

(except the NTW before it was nerfed, that's still my highest kill gun)

[kindred flint]

i cant actually care enough about 6 points to want to sit over 200m from enemies to get 2 kills

[hybrid totem]

subtext - changing is not worth your comfort

[kindred flint]

seems like its just typical Swedish to English translation fail...why no one caught it is just typical dice.tm magic

i care to play the game mode, not sit back trying to get kills ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[fair jacinth]

The best thing in BF 2042 is the Super Hind the flying bunker

[acoustic seal]

still waiting for patch notes that actually list the changes made to the game

[kindred flint]

....what is wrong with you dude, why are you so demanding?

like bro this game is a love letter...just let it bake in the oven for a little longer fam

and what ever else the devs have said

[acoustic seal]

surveys like "how do you feel about our communication over twitter and discord" i don't fucking care??

[kindred flint]

oh brutal expectations thats what the line was

they communicate here??? besides alex randomly popping in

[acoustic seal]

i need to know that EMP was changed to go through irish APS in the notes and not find out about it through back channels

[kindred flint]

i bet you want a fucking numerical value on your weapons informational chart too instead of bars!

[dapper night]

Disagree IFVs needed to be in their own category why would you combine Tanks and IFVs in one category? That would cause problems and BF3/BF4 already have a separate category for these

[hybrid totem]

let's just radically alter the balance and allow each team to have a total of 8 vehicles plus jeeps and hovercraft. Don't legislate what the vehicles should be

8 jets vs 8 CAVs, why not?

[mortal horizon]

How do I cancel Lis rocket on PC?

[gritty tapir]

E

[mild crystal]

Balls

[mortal horizon]

And that key by default is what? My bindings are so customized.

[gritty tapir]

i believe so

[mild crystal]

Same

[acoustic seal]

if it has the health of a tank and the firepower of a tank, it goes in the tank category

bf4 ifvs were not nearly as powerful

[kindred flint]

e is the enter exit vehicle button

[mortal horizon]

Copy, thanks

[arctic grove]

E for enter/Exit

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/884004180799397898/1091413715607367890/video0_57_2-2.mp4 We need this in 2042

[hybrid totem]

but it's already in bfsw

[arctic grove]

DICE needs to copy/paste swbf assets into bf Portal

[hybrid totem]

And also separate then re-release portal into its own sequel

[arctic grove]

facts

[dapper night]

Why would you think that IFVs have a the same health as the Tank? They’re built as a glass canon case in point: RAM

Also we already have a IFV, it’s just that it’s stuck with a Mobile AA in the same category instead having a separate category which force players to pick between a AA or a Anti-Infantry in times of needing something

[acoustic seal]

the ram is weird but you can't tell me the mav/cav aren't overloaded with gun seats and utility

[hybrid totem]

MAV maybe. CAV, no

[acoustic seal]

aps and cds at the same time?

i would love to know what dice thinks their roles are

[dapper night]

The whole Vehicle Balance and Category is a mess

[kindred flint]

dart board in the office is how roles are defined

[gritty tapir]

lmgs are booty, not even useful as suppression weapons

[acoustic seal]

there is no suppression in this game, thank god

play engineer and crouch, you can beam people off of anything up to 150m

[copper ice]

roles are defined by whatever sells the most

i would take suppression over 150m accurate lmgs

[acoustic seal]

i wouldn't, i've had enough from bf1

though bf1 has both lmao

[eager spire]

Easy solution to this problem is to just have spread that prevents LMG's from being effective out to that far.

At least not while spraying.

[copper ice]

lmgs barely seem to ahve any spread

you can dump 150 bullets and its as mucj spread as the first 5 bullets

[eager spire]

yeah, so give them more.

so they can't do that at 150 meters.

not without tap firing at least.

[copper ice]

id be good with mroe spread on everytbing

[gritty tapir]

less spread more recoil a la bf5

[acoustic seal]

spread to recoil conversion was ass

like yeah your bullets go where your crosshair is, because the game's throwing your crosshair everywhere except where you point it

[copper ice]

I prefer that to spread

[naive magnet]

If someone dies of a headshot

[hexed mango]

smash

[naive magnet]

How on earth are they getting revived lol

I think headshots should counter revives

[arctic grove]

defib will fix them right up

[naive magnet]

Can’t re-head someone

[arctic grove]

[hexed mango]

just make that out of zain and it’s me

[hexed mango]

idk man don’t assume

[naive magnet]

We can rebuild him

[arctic grove]

or you choose to die

respawn instead

Morning all europeas

[acoustic seal]

you at least have the option of controlling spread by bursting, there's nothing to control with spread-to-recoil since your aim point is getting thrown off in random directions

[arctic grove]

Ok so my 128 CQ BF3 HC full xp server is on

[eager spire]

Nah, you can't do recoil like BFV did, because Spread to Recoil was a bad mechanic and if you were to add recoil, you'd have to add a lot of recoil for it to matter.

Which is just not in line with how BF plays. BF is not a game with a lot of recoil, this ain't PUBG.

[gritty tapir]

🥱

[eager spire]

At least act like an adult that can have a discussion, my guy.

Come on.
