battlefield-2042

[tame osprey]

am i the only one who thinks the maps on bf2042 are small, look at orbital, bit small for the scale i would be expecting from battlefield

[chilly jacinth]

If they plug in a keyboard it's easy to chat

[plain hare]

Is it just me or is the attack chopper just vastly inferior to the little bird n stealth choppers?

[hybrid totem]

Not just you

[fluid portal]

Oh boy i cant wait for all chat so i can compliment the other team's strategies

[next onyx]

Yeah the AT chopper is just.. bad.

[plain hare]

So excited to "compliment" the enemy

[fluid portal]

They feel more like 5 tdm maps than one big map

[still vault]

Bigger than previous Battlefield games, but HAS gotten smaller due to feedback from the Battlefield community

[fluid portal]

May feel smaller aswell due to higher player density being 128 player servers

Thats just a theory

[still vault]

https://tenor.com/view/game-theory-game-theory-its-just-a-theory-game-theorists-gif-20883020

[fluid portal]

I refuse to acknowledge the existence of "food theory"

[plain hare]

Doubling the player count was an extremely odd choice in my opinion

[hybrid totem]

you say, acknowledging the existence of "food theory"

[fluid portal]

Its a lie made by the suits at Big Theory

[subtle crag]

2042 feels to battlefield like the Black Ops series feels to call of duty

same core formula with a distinct spin, really like it

[radiant prism]

[subtle crag]

Shame the walkers didnt make it from the original 2042 hehe >:)

[mental delta]

https://tenor.com/view/the-what-smile-whut-weird-stare-gif-16592004

[subtle crag]

lemme find them

Sidenote : I fucking hate this trend of remaking games that already exist with the exact same name 🙃

of course every result is the current bf 2042

[mental delta]

Lmao you're talking about BF2142 not BF2042

[subtle crag]

yooo you're right

No wonder the walkers aint here anymore

They haven't been invented >:)

[mental delta]

Yeah thankfully, I prefer modern era Battlefield games, I hope new one starts a new timeplapse

[subtle crag]

I'm not sure where I stand exactly, but I don't miss historical settings

[hybrid totem]

I want a retrofuturist battlefield. Gimme falloutfield

[tidal trail]

They really should change the US vs RU to NATO vs RU

[next onyx]

I mean technically in giants of Karelia they were there but they were unusable.

But generally unsure if the assault in final stand is canon.

[tame osprey]

is it possible to host a solo pve 1942 conquest experience on bf2042

[radiant prism]

yes

[tame osprey]

i tried it but not letting me join my own "experience" 💀

[fickle wharf]

lol

[tame osprey]

"experience has validation errors"

dice can't even validate their own game

[paper bobcat]

hitreg seems super dookie today

[plain hare]

Hitreg always seems dookie

[quiet shell]

I could go for a dieselpunk battlefield

[inner ether]

I'm tired of people giving me shit just because playing Brawler doesn't put me in the top 5, as if my opinion is somehow invalidated by not having lots of kills or lots of assists.

[fickle wharf]

lol

[inner ether]

I could lay in a bush with Casper and be top player. Doesn't mean squat.

[dapper river]

Man, this game was so fun. I went back and played it during the 2017/2018 revival and boy did it not age well

[next onyx]

Apparently it didn't do too well.

[mental delta]

Never wanted to play it ngl

[dapper river]

I wish newer battlefields kept the announcer's native language like in 2142 and Bad Company 1+2

[acoustic seal]

if you're in a vehicle in THIS game and not farming people, something has gone terribly wrong

[inner ether]

....do you know how the Brawler works?

[fickle wharf]

cav needs good gunners to work well

[acoustic seal]

oh i had it confused with the ram

all the vehicles are named the same

[fickle wharf]

you can do only do so much with proximity protection and aps

[inner ether]

It can be fun yeah on certain points

[remote kiln]

just ignore them

[fervent rose]

if you're having fun who gives a flying fuck what some bf teammate has to say

[tough folio]

needs to remove railtanks and radar missiles

way to many anti vehicle nerds on rn

[inner ether]

pilot spotted

[tidal trail]

Heli main trash lmao

[tidal trail]

Do better.

[tough folio]

nah, im just not in favor of unbalanced mechanics that ruin the game

[severe sequoia]

they can remove lis aswell

[tidal trail]

The mini bird needs a major nerf if anything

[drowsy shuttle]

Remind me again why the vault weapons are in the AoW?

[tidal trail]

Why not? Portal weapons are fun

[drowsy shuttle]

Not in AoW

[tidal trail]

You're on console?

[tough folio]

i dont see how minibird needs a nerf. i do see that it shouldnt be the best helicopter out of the actual attack helicopter category. literally all of the other ones are so trash it basically begs you to play nightbird.

[drowsy shuttle]

Nope

[tidal trail]

Depends on the weapon MTAR is a beast so is the AEK

[severe sequoia]

I can't get to like the MTAR, what are you running on it?

[tidal trail]

Just red dot, the grip and heavy barrel

[chilly jacinth]

both of those guns suffer from shitty spread

especially the MTAR

[tidal trail]

I don't engage targets in long range with it

Close quarters it's good

[drowsy shuttle]

Mtar is not a beast im t1 the weapon right now (900 kills already) and its kinda weak... you going to lose fights against most ARs (im not gonna even mention rm68 because thats impossible to compete against.. unless you also use the rm68)

[severe sequoia]

RM68 needs a nerf.

[drowsy shuttle]

Not to mention, vault weapons feel like a toy... they dont have "weight"

[tough folio]

literal reason i dont play them

its not scratching the same itch

[frosty flint]

which tier one skin should I go for next?

I already have Scar, AM40, RM69, BSVM, M5A3

any suggestion?

[drowsy shuttle]

I rather have 5 new bf 2042 weapons than 15 vault weapons

[severe sequoia]

AK-24

[frosty flint]

Sounds like a good idea... I was also thinking about the SVK or the full auto shotgun...

also the pp was something I was considering...

[drowsy shuttle]

T1 all the weapons

[frosty flint]

I will eventually

[inner ether]

I told my team to stop sniping on attack

They told me, and I'm not joking, that they "are the backbone of the team"

[cosmic sequoia]

Amen

Just railtanks

Radar missiles nbd

[inner ether]

And that "if snipers aren't important then why do spotters get the most points"

[frosty flint]

Depends on their ratio... headshot ratio

[inner ether]

80% of my team on that hill? Not a good ratio

I successfully dropped Angel boxes on them.

[frosty flint]

lmao if they are cracked and they snipe everyone I guess, but that's quite a stretch lol

[inner ether]

They weren't.

[frosty flint]

yikes

f in chat

[cosmic sequoia]

They’re not on the point either

Fast loss

[eager spire]

bold of them to just blatantly lie like that.

like, damn. you're really just out here spreading misinformation.

[tough folio]

i think they should just heavily lower regen rate on radar missiles. you cant avoid it, and it basically means instant death to an opposing jet

[frosty flint]

as a destiny player formerly, I am well aware that winning or losing is random lol

[cosmic sequoia]

Yeah they’re pretty strong in air vs air combat. But I mean. You should be able to take out a jet with cannons alone

[tough folio]

i ussually use cannons alone, but in a dog fights, they always happen to get ridicolous tracking. it just doesnt promote skilled play at all

[cosmic sequoia]

I can see that

[tough folio]

and i dont need to talk about the absolute trashbags f35 players who hover behind your spawn to make sure the jets stays dead off the jump

[cosmic sequoia]

Idm them that much as a heli pilot because they usually get close for those rockets

And they only do like 35 damage

Yeah that’s pretty op mechanic

Spawn camping is so dumb

Can’t believe there aren’t like dedicated spawn zones Lmaoo

[tough folio]

i found a match where the opposing team had 2 wildcats, 2 tors, and a 50mm latv camping in spawn.

i dont understand how people can find that gameplay fun

[hybrid totem]

did they win?

[tough folio]

cant remember

[hybrid totem]

also Blasco is my favorite accessory to tanking now

even better than irish

[drowsy shuttle]

I guess console players finally found out about rm68 lol

[cosmic sequoia]

Yeah hate matches like this

2 wildcats is just insanely hard to deal with

They usually end up getting greedy for some juicy infantry kills

[tough folio]

i was playing with a group of new players and they were saying that vehicles were way too op

and that infantry need more antivec weapons.

[cosmic sequoia]

Lmaooo

They have so much stuff

The problem is that people aren’t creative anymore

[tough folio]

only thing ill give them is that they happen to be playing in some incredibly sweaty lobbies.

[cosmic sequoia]

When I play with friends the lobby is usually more difficult

[tough folio]

agreed. its insane the amount of takes that ive heard that just promote unskilled play/one man army gameplay

[cosmic sequoia]

I think because it matches you with other parties

“Dude I can’t take out helicopters, tanks, revive and lay down suppressing fire from 800m!’!?”

EA created super soldiers when the game was classless

[tough folio]

this one dude said that they shouldnt infantry give rocket launchers if they didnt get enough ammo to kill a tank solo.

LIKE WHAT?!?🤣

people forget that teamplay and squadplay exists for a reason

[cosmic sequoia]

My favorite is when it’s one person trying to cap a point

“It’s so slow!!”

This game is just fundamentally flawed in so many ways. Instead of specialists we should have a good customization system for characters

Better squad commands and coordination

[tough folio]

100% better squad commands and request.

i love requesting a ride from a condor in the air, and knowing they are not even seeing the messages because the ui isnt even built for it

[cosmic sequoia]

16 squads and not one cba to fucking defend the point we just captured?

30 seconds later it’s recapped

Oh dude

Don’t request anything from the condor

Most people can’t fly it. Which brings me to my next point. Give the Americans a fucking transport chopper

[tough folio]

yes true

[cosmic sequoia]

The Americans are just weak because 9/10 people can’t fly the condor and fly into the nearest wall.

I call it the condor experience

[latent violet]

Hehe relatable

[cosmic sequoia]

OR they could just nerf the super hinds health or the repair spots

Doubt that will happen though

[tough folio]

i love people who play engineer just for the rocket launcher out of their childish spite for vehicles.

Me sitting in my flaming apc with a repair symbol above my head, watching a group of 5 engineers flock straight past and around my vehicle

[arctic grove]

😎

[drowsy shuttle]

Thats the same shit as medics.. they run past you

[cosmic sequoia]

Oh dude no engineer repairs

[drowsy shuttle]

Also engies should ping vehicles saying they are coming to repair

[cosmic sequoia]

I’ll literally park next to one

On fucking fire

And they just run past

Brain dead

They need a better intro experience to make people play the fucking classssss

[drowsy shuttle]

Funny whenever i play engie, vehicles always run away from me.... and i have no way to tell them that im coming to repair... i blame dice for this tho

[tough folio]

holy shit, what a wonder that would be.

a new player experience

[cosmic sequoia]

Lmaooo fr

Instead we have some broken ass match that shows people what they already know

Capture red circle defend blue circle

Not much defending encouragement though

[drowsy shuttle]

Again they need to implement the feature so engies can tell vehicles they are coming to repair... then maybe drivers would stop and wait

[tough folio]

they need to add request and commands into a chatbox like bf4. would help the commarose significantly

[cosmic sequoia]

Yes

In 5 you can see

[tough folio]

and also need to make the commarose silky smoother to interact with

[drowsy shuttle]

As a driver you can request repairs... and its pretty easy to do

[cosmic sequoia]

Like “oh shit I’m on fire” and you see someone spamming “I’ll repair” you can look around and find someone sprinting towards you

[drowsy shuttle]

Or bring back repair stations like in V

[mental delta]

I don't even understand why it's not like that

[tough folio]

it only pops up the symbol on your head, and even does it automatically. tho for other commands, and even requesting repairs or aid, some people will miss it, choose to ignore it, or completely oblivious on how to play

[drowsy shuttle]

But thats not the games fault.. its common sense or skill of people

Same way people skip revive after you ping them you are coming to revive

Or request revive and meds 4m away are completely oblivious

I believe some people wouldnt revive/repair even if there was a giant alert in the center of the screen the size of half of the screen flashing REVIVE! or REPAIR!

[tough folio]

doesnt mean that they shouldnt improve upon it tho. the second wheel of the commarose is completely useless because they removed that part of the ui that broadcast those commands, and even then it wasnt emphasized enough

[sick eagle]

is kaleidoscope a good map for rush

[tough folio]

even worse implementation... vehicle coms.

if i want a blueberry to know i want them out of my vehicle or in, they cant even see those commands, and can barely hear my character speaking over the radio if that even happens at all

[drowsy shuttle]

Maybe they will change/improve the commarose when they implement the squad management...

[tough folio]

or i want to ping an enemy location or enemy, blueberries simply cannot see the pings

i could go on and on and on, but in the end, i highly doubt staff reads this chat for feedback and it just ends up being said for nothing

[sudden plume]

@sudden plume

[tough folio]

bro pinged himself

[sudden plume]

Oops, anyway....how do I find a squad?

[sick eagle]

@proper rover

[tough folio]

scroll down to the lfg categories and channels. and if you are xbox you can use the xbox lfg tool

[sudden plume]

Thank you so much! Randos suck! Haha

[tough folio]

np

[sudden plume]

Later team. Lol

[sick eagle]

ima try hazard zone

[dusky tulip]

Anyone have a breakdown for firepower how many shots if takes like if firepower is 55

[tough folio]

no clue, i would recommend going into an aim trainer and turning on damage numbers or finding another way to test them yourself

[sudden plume]

I tried hazard zone and it couldn't find players.

[tough folio]

yeah its not a very active gamemode or a fan fav

gl on your ventures tho

[dusky tulip]

on PS5 no crossplay I find games easily in portal Infantry conquest

but regular conquest not much

[tough folio]

ive heard running last gen version of the game can work well if your into no crossplay

[dusky tulip]

yes on my PS4 with crossplay I find games in conquest mode and its only with xbox and ps players no PC on ps4

[sudden plume]

I'm going into hazard zine now...

[mellow basin]

does everyone have to keep adding accessories to their weapons at the beginning of each round?

[tough folio]

wdym

[mellow basin]

at the beginning of every match i have to add my sights and mag

[tough folio]

yeah i dont really have a nitpick against crossplay as a console player. i dont see a reason why
either way thats enough of my two cents on discord, im finna take a break

[mellow basin]

does everyone have that issue

I never had to add them in the beginning of a match on the other BF series

[tough folio]

if you go to customize your weapons in the menus, you can rearrange the order of your attachments so that they default to whatever you want on it first, then you wont have to use the plus menu at the start

[mellow basin]

ahhhh

that makes sense... geeze it was driving me nuts

[dusky tulip]

I just played a few conquest matches in crossplay on ps5 it wasnt so bad but definetly PC players can out manouver me much faster

[mellow basin]

thank you... I'm noobish to 2042

[dusky tulip]

but Im gonna download the pS4 version on PS5 and see if crossplay for that version is only ps4 and xbox

[tough folio]

np

[mellow basin]

🤙

[tough folio]

spoiler alert it is

[dusky tulip]

I have the version I play it on my ps4pro but loading the graphics kinda takes long

not kinda but definetly

[tough folio]

yeah i wont ever switch to last gen ever again after i got my series x 2 or 3 years ago

[dusky tulip]

I couldnt play on a regular ps4

it would totally suck

[raven haven]

The PS5 Version is 1080p I realised

Or 1440

I can't tell

[dusky tulip]

Download started. I now have BF4, BF1,BF5, BF2042 PS5 version/and PS4 version and my SSD is almost full

[raven haven]

Now all you need is hardline

[dusky tulip]

I own it but never played it

Bf1 is very nice on PS5 btw

[raven haven]

I'll play it tomorrow

[tough folio]

hardline had its own charm

[dusky tulip]

is hardline mostly single player ?

[tough folio]

it had both, it was like a regular battlefield but cops and robbers

[raven haven]

Both

[calm bison]

Hardline is a game that as cool as it is, was destined to die off

[tough folio]

but i think the game is mostly dead now

[raven haven]

Which I loved

[calm bison]

It still has a lifeline via console

But unfortunately it was destined to fail on PC

And it gets worse when people fantasize about playing it

Like go buy servers and get people to play

Stop pontificating on it and go do it

[tough folio]

last time i played hardline on console, it had literally 1 active server with players on it, everything else was empty

[calm bison]

Chances are Hardline will be the first of the post-BF3 BF games to be removed from stores and have its servers shut

[dusky tulip]

when the PS5 is downloading everything else in my place is very slow, I had to go into the router and limit it to 30mb down/up using QOS bandwidth feature

[raven haven]

If bf4 had bots similar to 2042 I'd be playing that only

[tough folio]

30Mb takes ages bro

[raven haven]

We got ethernet and in our experience it takes the PS5 off it and keeps everything fast

[dusky tulip]

Yeah but Im in no rush its just BF2042 for ps4 version I can wait

[raven haven]

My mate has 0.6kb/s

[dusky tulip]

I dont understand on ethernet the PS5 doesnt take all your bandwidth ?

oh 5ghz wifi for me it does

[raven haven]

Not for us

[dusky tulip]

I only have a 50 mb down/up subscribtion

[tough folio]

i have 1000gb wifi, and my xbox can run 100-180 mb wireless connection

[dusky tulip]

I pay like 65$ canadian

[cosmic sequoia]

These days anything under 100 is gonna have a tough time downloading games

[tough folio]

imagine if i had an ethernet cord, my download would be insane

[dusky tulip]

but I live alone so 50 is decent for me its also fiber so feels smooth

but with other people no way

[cosmic sequoia]

Yeah fs but still gotta schedule downloads

[raven haven]

Wireless i get 200 wired I get 500-600 bf2042 done in half an hour

[cosmic sequoia]

A 90gb game probably takes you like an hour or more

[sick eagle]

just tried hz

[hybrid totem]

stranded 3 times in a row. ew

[tough folio]

dude whats your total package

[dusky tulip]

I had 1500 mbps connection once but I was paying too much

[cosmic sequoia]

I pay $85 and get 1.2

[hybrid totem]

buy him a drink first damn

[cosmic sequoia]

But I don’t actually get 1.2 lmao

[raven haven]

I'm unsure thats my dad's department lmao

[dusky tulip]

Thats terrible bro you must have DSL

phone internet

[tough folio]

my friend gets a 900mb download speed from his ethernet

[dusky tulip]

the lamest way

[cosmic sequoia]

1.2 gbps but ya

Lmao

[dusky tulip]

mbps or gbs lol huge difference

I thought you meant mbps

[vagrant wing]

my ISP says i should get 10gbit but i get 1gbit because my motherboard doesnt support more

[cosmic sequoia]

Oh hell no

[vagrant wing]

neither does my ethernet cable probably

[cosmic sequoia]

That would be insa

Insane

Might as well not have internet

[dusky tulip]

I know some people who live in some far away areas they still have like 4mbs max

but I gues they have horses to ride they dont play games lol

[sudden plume]

So hz is like dmz

[tough folio]

i have a friend whos internet used to be in the kbs, but the provider that i use came around to their area

he couldnt even run discord

[dusky tulip]

Im so used to fast internet I don't know how to live without it if I had to move someday

[vagrant wing]

where do you live that this is even possible

[raven haven]

Oh god

[vagrant wing]

or how old is the contract

[raven haven]

I just smacked a fly out of the sky lmao

[cosmic sequoia]

Yeah fs

[tough folio]

in rural areas, living in the poorest state of the usa, its pretty possible

[vagrant wing]

true

[dusky tulip]

I think if my internet goes down for 1 week Id probably lose 10 lbs walking around town

id probably get a gf, get married have kids all in that one week

[still vault]

I'll probably be out of Internet for a week. am moving soon

[vagrant wing]

youd still have data though

[tough folio]

lmao. my internet gets interference when they set new people up on the provider, its mad annoying. like it will halt my connection for 10-15 seconds every 3-6 minutes. that crap causes me to die or even disconnect from games

[dusky tulip]

That sucks

[tough folio]

i went without it for 3 months once, it was pretty awful, and i was hyped for halo infinite only to miss out on its launch, and have the game be mid

[still vault]

I have plenty of data on my phones internet and can download big steam things as work, should be fine 😄 -

[dusky tulip]

I honestly think if gaming didnt exist a lot more men would be married with kids lol

but it keeps us happy so we dont want to

[tough folio]

ive been more happier this weekend than i have in who know how long

so close to graduation

and im starting to get into playing basketball with a group at my school. i thought i wouldnt like it, but its kinda heat ngl

only bad thing is im trash at it fr

[drowsy shuttle]

Why the LATV has the range of a nuclear submarine?

[tough folio]

dont even know

who thought having custom latv in hz was a good idea

anyone got good fixes for stick drift?

[vagrant wing]

i mean its what happened to me, i stopped playing games for a while, got a gf and started being happy

more truth to it than it seems

[tough folio]

depends, how long is a while

[vagrant wing]

less and less over the course of like 2-3 months

just put myself in situations that were uncomfortable more

[tough folio]

believable

[vagrant wing]

also was lucky

[sick eagle]

i played hz again

i need good teammates

[tough folio]

i was going to do the same at onepoint because gaming really does start to feel dry at somepoints

[dusky tulip]

Gaming did mess up my grades in school

I mean university

I wont lie I am addicted

how do I know, because if I go one day without its like withdrawls

[plucky basin]

Bf4

Bf4

Bf4

[dusky tulip]

BF4 needs a graphics update for new gen

[tough folio]

i have good grades in highschool, but alot of the time i just dont know fr

[dusky tulip]

it looks like a ps3 game

[plucky basin]

Can people play bf4

[dusky tulip]

Yeah its on my Ps5 I played recently but it looks so bad

[plucky basin]

Maybe but it still feels and looks better than bf2042

[dusky tulip]

It just needs EA to enable higher resolution

like its already good looking

just the ugly pixelation

[plucky basin]

Yh

[dusky tulip]

maybe on PC it looks dope

[plucky basin]

Prob

I play on ps4

Imagine bf4 remaster without bs

[dusky tulip]

I cant play on PC because those guys are old school FPS gamers, like the whole setup, monitor mouse keyboard, my controller is not gonna keep up

[arctic grove]

The only BS was probably the movement exploits and vehicle balance

[plucky basin]

Yeah

[hybrid totem]

now you think bf4's vehicles were imbalanced?

[plucky basin]

And squad system

[hybrid totem]

or do you mean compared to infantry?

[plucky basin]

I think they are fine

[arctic grove]

Well there was the occasional heli pilot on Shanghai that weaved between buildings and essentially could not be killed but I don’t have much else to say about them because I haven’t played recently

[hybrid totem]

so the only bs was the movement exploits

the vehicles are fine in bf4

Best in the series imo

[arctic grove]

Yeah probably, vehicles were strong but I think people took the games people uploaded where they got lucky or were just better and dropped 103-0 and said BF4 vehicles are unbalanced

I used to get my ass kicked on them when I played… lots of ins and outs about them

[hybrid totem]

There's always people who are too good at the game, just like there will always people who scream "balance issues" because of skill ceilings

The rock paper scissors of land sea air was the best in bf4

[tough folio]

can we get proper battlefield score in 2042, this music is good, but we something to hype you up while playing, and thats more traditional in game that was suppose to be about tradition

[hybrid totem]

this is the first I've heard of 2042 being about fulfilling tradition

[tough folio]

well dice did say the game was supposed to be a love letter to the fans, yet when we got it, it was the opposite

[eager spire]

"2042 is supposed to be about tradition" that's a take

That is one of the takes of all time

[tough folio]

lmao

[inner ether]

I think I know what would balance the Hind

Make it slower, less manouverable

[arctic grove]

They used that description for portal

[inner ether]

It's like a big fat Little Bird in how it handles

[tough folio]

i still remember the reveal trailer, that had so many people hyped. i can only imagine the faces when they got their hands on launch day

[arctic grove]

It was never intended for the whole game

[tough folio]

ah then my mistake, either way, still needs some good music

[mossy badge]

Last of us part I pc

[hybrid totem]

There are just so many priorities that I care about more than the score...

[tough folio]

its kind of weird to not hear the theme in a bf game, but it also feels like without it, they are trying to push a new era of bf, or were

[tough folio]

didnt say that is should take priority, just that it should be added

[arctic grove]

It’s all good

[arctic grove]

That’s why I never hated 2042s soundtrack. Some of the stuff on it has a good art direction

Feel like people just expected BF1/V forever, which wouldn’t necessarily be a problem if they dropped that soundtrack design depending on what they did next

[tough folio]

i think bf4 has the best soundtrack to me, but 2042 does do a good job at making me memorise maps by sound

season 3 i hated tho

[arctic grove]

Season 3 soundtrack broke and played during every map intro

I got tired of it so quick

[drowsy shuttle]

Does anyone actually plays with vault weapons regularly?

[tough folio]

not me

[arctic grove]

The m16 is the only one I’d bother doing that with

[ebon pilot]

It's still doing that in S4. In the pre-game lobby it plays the S4 theme

[arctic grove]

I wish they’d fix that up and gave each map in the pre game lobby it’s maps own soundtrack

I think I’ve been noticing the maps soundtracks more in the deployment menu and gameplay

[drowsy shuttle]

Yeah m16 was fine.. my second vault weapon that i T1.. first was the Gol... now im T1 the mtar... because im bored and a bit stupid

[arctic grove]

I heard mtar was bad but idk for certain

[tough folio]

cant wait till my new controller comes in Wednesday, finally thank god. tired of this damn stickdrift

[arctic grove]

I imagine it has horrible recoil

[drowsy shuttle]

Its not the recoil.. its underpower

Recoil is no issue

[tough folio]

why is it everytime i play the game, it makes sure to remind me why i hate it. holy shit f35 spawn camper

not surprised he happened to have radar missiles

[hybrid totem]

Spawn at base
bye bye floating jet

[arctic grove]

They should definitely randomize the jet spawn locations then

[arctic grove]

Very big design flaw right there

[hybrid totem]

one of the many ways they went backwards with the game design. automatic base AA was a godsend in bf4

[arctic grove]

Oh yeah true I miss base AA

[sick eagle]

i just got my first victory in hz

[drowsy crow]

lmao that moment you get 2 out of 3 outstanding play rewards

[surreal holly]

Hi, can certain classes only use certain guns?

Is that also the case when you create your own server?

[sick eagle]

no

except other eras

[surreal holly]

What does eras mean? When i change operators it always changes my gun? But for example I want to play Irish with a sniper rifle

Is that possible?

[sick eagle]

the other eras

and yes

you can

[surreal holly]

I dont know what eras are 😦

[rocky kraken]

no

irish is a suport

yes you can use guns on anybodyu

[plain hamlet]

i swear why is 90% of hazard maps hourglass

[fringe cradle]

It’s the other battlefield’s

[sick eagle]

did you just play hz

[ebon pilot]

They're the other Battlefield games. 2042, BF3, BC2, and 1942 are the different eras that are available

a good nightbird is a dead nightbird

[hybrid totem]

I've found that elite Minibird pilots are the most likely to quit after dying once

it makes me happy

[spiral folio]

the next new map is the inside of the building

[ebon pilot]

and then you have this guy

[drowsy shuttle]

The second i t1 the mtar i will never touch it again.. holy moly lol

We should have an option to hide the vault weapons in the weapons menu.

[plain hamlet]

yeah

hourglass has the worst extractions out of any map

it’s like blatantly impossible to extract unless ur the first ones there

also i’ve been playing dozer a lot more, and honestly i’m doing pretty good at him, but the hitbox for the shield bash could be updated… it’s so damn inconsistent

[radiant prism]

[tough folio]

i was having fun on hz until i realized their are people who main that mode just to use the latv

[drowsy shuttle]

Im t1 dozer.. i dont even remember he has a shield.. i never use it lol

[ebon pilot]

goddamn that palette

[radiant prism]

ew

[ebon pilot]

son, it's time to learn of the power of ffmpeg

[radiant prism]

yeah I need a better gif converter

[drowsy shuttle]

Wow people actually put the rm68 badge on their player card lol noice

[ebon pilot]

if you have the original clip and send it to me I can make a much higher quality gif of it

[radiant prism]

Can I send you a few? lol

I have a lot of dozer gifs

[ebon pilot]

sure

[radiant prism]

dope

[shell ermine]

75 kills until I finally T1 the M1A5

[plain hamlet]

i like to use it to check corners or to get out of an engagement

[drowsy shuttle]

I use smoke nades for that

Soldiers best friend

[plain hamlet]

true smoke is so handy

but there is nothing but satisfying than getting those frag kills

[drowsy shuttle]

Does people forget that irish can revive? I think they do

[arctic grove]

Hi girls

(Me sayin hi)

[torpid wadi]

You really like dozer eh

[plain hamlet]

duh, he’s the dozer main

[carmine rover]

hiii

[plain hamlet]

absolute chad

[haughty rune]

What game mode counts for week 6 capture or neutralize objectives

[hybrid totem]

The ones with objectives that you can neutralize and capture

Pretty much conquest and breakthrough

[haughty rune]

I’ve done ones in shutdown, rush, and breakthrough they haven’t counted

[hybrid totem]

Then probably conquest

I thought breakthrough would count, but if you're saying it doesn't..

[haughty rune]

That’s weird one counted in breakthrough 3 didn’t

[plain hare]

anyone else get a directX error when launching game?

all my drivers are updated and all

[radiant prism]

Anyways high quality gif time

[plain hare]

noone?

just me getting this bs error?

[ebon pilot]

have you verified your windows install? DX errors like to happen when something is wrong with windows at least on my machine

[plain hare]

how do i do that?

[ebon pilot]

[tough folio]

is stick drift a fixable issue? or just get a new controller issue

[radiant prism]

I do like dozer quite a lot

[radiant prism]

Would controller deadzone help with that?

Otherwise it may be a buy a new controller issue

[tough folio]

its beyond a deadzone issue

for 2 of my controllers

[radiant prism]

Hmm ok yeah then it might be a controller thing

That’s bizarre

[haughty rune]

Why does it feel like out of 11 maps breakthrough only runs like 3

[hardy crest]

Guys what is the best specialist in hr pov ?

[tough folio]

i was hoping to see if i could open them up and fix them by cleaning, but after learning about xbox controllers, and how the stick components are, i dont think it will be a easily fixable issue worth my time

[tough folio]

i dont prefer play breakthrough, otherwise, its just a 2042 thing where you get unlucky with matching

plus i bought a new controller for 20 dollars coming in soon

[plain hare]

did all that just now same error still can i send a ss of the error to you?

[ebon pilot]

sure

[plain hare]

sent them to you @ebon pilot

[tough folio]

all chat was a great addition lmao

three way conversation with brainlets

[gilded plume]

is there a reason why i have 50% xp boost instead of 100

[tough folio]

wdym

[gilded plume]

well there is currently double xp

but i dont get the full 100% anymore

its only 50%

[tough folio]

what is your xp per kill

[gilded plume]

i dont get kills i am a pacifist player

assists only

im #1 casper on xbox

[ebon pilot]

so what you're only getting 75 xp per assist?

[gilded plume]

hold on I'll check let me get a kill

[tough folio]

if its 150 xp per kill, thats triple xp pretty sure, because boosters stack with xp weekend

or so i was told

[dusky tulip]

Yeah mine stacked but tbh after lv 99 there are little to no rewards. But the battlepass progression continues

[arctic grove]

what does everyone think of the new gamemode

[dusky tulip]

for Battlefield 2042 is the progression saved in our EA profile ?

[arctic grove]

im losing like every game 💀

[dusky tulip]

so I dont have to backup any saves right ?

[tough folio]

yeah

[lone elk]

Why is everybody I play with a fucking moron on the new game mode like wtf

[arctic grove]

omg yeah

there was some guy with the lance

sniping from a tower

on manifest

like

[dusky tulip]

The new game mode should include 1 costume for each specialist, I don't know why it

its just one

[ebon pilot]

ok so I'm looking back over the marketing pages for the past seasons and in the season 2 banner for the battle pass I can help but think what the fuck is this gun???

like, I know it's a DXR-1, I use this skin for it, the scope is recognizable

[dusky tulip]

The antimaterial sniper rifle has terrible bullet velocity

[ebon pilot]

but where the hell is everything else??? there's no stock the bipod is just gone, there's no barrel attachment wtf is this???

[dusky tulip]

its like throwing a grenade

[ebon pilot]

maybe i'm just missing the stock but like there's no barrel attachment or bipod

you can't take those off

where did they go?

how did they take this photo?

[arctic grove]

[ebon pilot]

note: this is the factory barrel

it's not there in the screenshot

[ionic moss]

Antimaterial rounds are inherently heavy, thus that weight is reflected in 2042

[ebon pilot]

*materiel

[ionic moss]

[ebon pilot]

there's a big difference

[ionic moss]

It's a typo bro

[ebon pilot]

that's what they all say

smh

[tough folio]

just a model they used to save resources prob

[ionic moss]

[hybrid totem]

Once it's used on civilians, it becomes an antimaterial rifle

[haughty rune]

Can someone explain this battlefield era selection for weapons and stuff

[ebon pilot]

so in portal you have access to the guns and stuff of past battlefield games

those games are called eras

and that's it

[ionic moss]

That's called a warcrime

[hybrid totem]

no it's called an antimaterial rifle

What you do with it is called a war crime

[hidden root]

is there an in-lore reason why im so depressed ?

[ionic moss]

"Used on civilians"

[ebon pilot]

climate change

[fervent rose]

all the main 2042 guns are "all out warfare" or AoW guns. the rest of them are portal guns separated into eras. some of those are available in AoW as "vault guns"

[gilded plume]

is there an in-lore reason why im so ugly and girls always leave me on seen?

[torpid wadi]

Bad genetics

[haughty rune]

So you can’t use the portal guns unless your in portal?

[hybrid totem]

gettin' close to a r5 volation

[ebon pilot]

genetics issue

[fervent rose]

@haughty rune except for the vault ones, that have been ported over from portal

[drowsy shuttle]

You need a rope?

[tough folio]

there are select portal guns that dice have added into the 2042 weapon pool

[hybrid totem]

ok too far

[gilded plume]

@mods get this guy 🤓

[drowsy shuttle]

Its not. He is just trolling

Dont feed the troll

[ionic moss]

Don't feed the troll guys

[gilded plume]

@crimson wasp @scarlet veldt this guy just told me to k*ll myself for asking a lore question

[hybrid totem]

well that solves that I guess

[ionic moss]

😂 this chat never changes and it's fucking amazing

[haughty rune]

I meant the rest of them

[fervent rose]

yea some of them are portal only

[ebon pilot]

the guns of the different eras are only available if you're playing in that era in either portal or aow

[fervent rose]

theres also vehicles that are portal only

and stuff like the old rpg

[mental delta]

This game is really crazy

You either get a lot of fun playing in a good lobby

[drowsy shuttle]

Welcome to bf 2042

[mental delta]

Or get one of the worst lobbies you've ever been in amongst all video games you played lol

Mostly due to shit map design

[hidden root]

is there an in-lore reason for my receding hairline?

[mental delta]

Some maps play good in some gamemode but terribly bad in other gamemodes

[torpid wadi]

Honestly the only season map i’ve really enjoyed was s1’s

[dusky tulip]

Im playing the PS4 version on my PS5 and it feels a bit more sluggish than the ps5 version. I guess it does not utilize the full ps5 potential

[ionic moss]

Middle age balding is one of the biggest causes of death in the Battlefield universe

[mental delta]

It's so fucking impressive the difference between playable map design from last maps they released compared to launch maps

[ionic moss]

I'm sorry to say but your only treatment seems to be Bosley Revitalizer®

[hidden root]

damn

[mental delta]

Lmao why would it use the full PS5 potential, it's made out for PS4 ?

[dusky tulip]

I didnt expect it to feel as sluggish as playing on a ps4, but its definitely better.

[ionic moss]

AFAIK PS4 games aren't optimized to run at the constant 60 FPS that the PS5 can output

[fervent rose]

that version is probably not optimized for ps5 play

they already can barely optimize all the normal versions

[ionic moss]

But hey at least we got new skins

And new bundles. That's all that really matters

[mental delta]

It's a bit better but ugly af though

[wooden berry]

not if you're using Falck, she's the most neglected one lol

[torpid wadi]

They refuse to give her much drip

[mental delta]

Angel is the true abandonned one

[fervent rose]

angel needs a buff man is no longer doing it again

[wooden berry]

lol no way, just checked his wardrobe, he was way better fits than Falck

[mental delta]

He has been abandonned completely lmao

[fervent rose]

boris and angel are crying rn dice

[dusky tulip]

is paik any good?

[mental delta]

All outfits are the same, only headgears differ

[fervent rose]

paik's good, its a wallhack after all

[drowsy shuttle]

Minimum effort, maximum profit

[dusky tulip]

I play Boris hes not bad at all

the sentry spots vehicles, and I attack them with recoilless or Javalin.

Boris does need a better passive perk though

Sentry Operator perk is trash

[wooden berry]

True, could be worst though. 6 of Falck's combat uniforms are the exact same colour.

[mental delta]

I play Boris because he got full Russian outfit, we're not the same

[fervent rose]

boris should get bonus rocket ammo

or they need to get more ammo crates going somehow

or both

[mental delta]

Yes but she got a lot of special outfits like Robocop one, black one and white one

[dusky tulip]

The recoilless rocket launcher is way better than Anti air and the Javalin, it one shots some helicopters and its fast and long range

[mental delta]

They need to really improve Tate fucker though, his turret is useless af

[dusky tulip]

I ditched the Javalin for it

[fervent rose]

yea recoilless is the best launcher, it's still weak as a total kit compared to bfv vehicle killing

[mental delta]

Two of the most useless specialists in this game are engineers

[fervent rose]

yep

[dusky tulip]

Anyone try hitting helicopters with Liz's guided missile

its kinda hard

[hybrid totem]

not sure which is more satisfying - killing a heli with Lissiles or an rpg

[fervent rose]

i miss using the ram to flak pod them

i was getting good at taking out stealth helis

and then all that was removed from BT

[drowsy shuttle]

Sniping the pilot is the most satisfying

[hybrid totem]

throwing knifing the pilot

[dusky tulip]

Anyone use Paik here ?

[mental delta]

Impossible on PS

[dusky tulip]

is she any good like whats the best features ?

[drowsy shuttle]

Not, im not a cheater.

[storm sierra]

my ears works fine, no need to use paik

[wooden berry]

If they're gonna keep the skip to redeploy feature then I feel that there should be more xp for pulling off revives =/

[clever delta]

Does BF 2042 look noticeably different on 4k ultra DLSS off vs 4k ultra DLSS Quality ? Or does it look almost the same?

i don't know because i have a 7900xtx but i am thinking of returning it to buy a 4080 just because bf 2042 has dlss the only reason im returning it

[hybrid totem]

kills should be worth the least, and everything elseworth more

[wooden berry]

probably keep the XP the same for kills, but bring back the assist count as kill XP instead of the 50xp cap, increase all aid xp [spotting, revive, repair, etc] incentivize players to help more.

[dusky tulip]

m240b is dope

[ebon pilot]

what they really need to do is boost XP for doing actions on or around objectives

[fervent rose]

rewarding kills with high xp amounts is correct. it's a casual war game

you want people to fight

[hybrid totem]

rewarding kills with less xp than other actions would turn it into a teambased shooter

[fervent rose]

teamwork events should be less valuable than pvp actions

you want xp? kill a full enemy vehicle etc

[wooden berry]

in objective base modes, yes. agreed.

[ionic moss]

Lonewolf it and die while contributing nothing to the team

[fervent rose]

if that "lone wolf" is killing vehicles how is he contributing nothing to the team

tf

[mental delta]

I like the name of Battlefield

I mean Battlefield

It's really Battlefieldish when you really think about it

[drowsy shuttle]

That was deep

[acoustic seal]

battlefield players when they encounter a crewed super hind (suddenly they're not interested in teamwork anymore)

[mental delta]

Yeah I know I just thought about all the battles that took place in the fields along the franchise and 🥲

[storm sierra]

battlefield players when they encounter a teammates that needs ammo (suddenly they're not interested in teamwork anymore)

[mental delta]

It's funny because I feel like people give less ammo now

Like less than before which is surprising

[fervent rose]

of course less ammo exists

[wooden berry]

battlefield players when they request a revive then spam the skip to redeploy button .01 seconds later, just to complain in the chat about medics not medic-ing.

[fervent rose]

they restricted the crate from all specialists to 3 specialists

without buffing the cooldown

completely predictable

[mental delta]

Dude the coolodown is so fucking high *

[fervent rose]

and it takes them over 2 months to realize this and fix it?

[mental delta]

You have to wait so long for the crate to be available again

[mental delta]

It's not fixed yet so probably 3 lmao

[fervent rose]

yea if

probably a season 5 fix

[mental delta]

It also takes a lot of time to be able to resupply again from a ammo box

[dusky tulip]

nobody like nobody is playing with support and Ammo crates

if you run out of rockets you must redeploy or just lose

[fervent rose]

i see plenty of falcks with ammo but thats it

its not enough overall

and it'd be nice to feel like i can use smoke grenade launcher on falck

not enough reliable ammo crates to bother

[orchid crest]

I always bring ammo so I can be actually somewhat useful.

I play as Irish though usually.

[hybrid totem]

there it is, the solution to all bf problems. Do it yourself

[orchid crest]

I am a grenade magnet.

[hybrid totem]

Soflams, ammos, revives, kill that tank, etc

[fervent rose]

or dice could make these teamwork things function better

idk, crazy idea

[hybrid totem]

One solution is achievable

[fervent rose]

yea man them lowering a cooldown on box throw is impossible

[drowsy shuttle]

They need to bring back ammo depots or allow another class to carry ammo box... cause the lack of ammo boxes is a problem now... its one of the reasons i basically only play ARs wirh assault class.. cause the 3 extra mags are a must

[fervent rose]

legit never done before

[hybrid totem]

has it happened yet? It may very well be

At any rate, you can either wait for DICE to do it, or throw ammo more often yourself

[fervent rose]

no shit sherlock

[hybrid totem]

Cuz you know, waiting for DICE to do things is the winning move usually

[dapper river]

falks with ammo crates ignoring requests, name a more iconic duo

and if the ammo crate is on cooldown then players who need ammo shouldn't see an ammo icon over the support players' heads, that's on DICE

[drowsy shuttle]

Ill name it... Angels not throwing ammo pouches to teammates or not call the care package

[fervent rose]

the cooldown is huge, you cant just spam it or you'll not have it when you need another smoke

its not complicated why falcks dont toss em like candy

[hybrid totem]

You know what would be a dope revision...

If instead of certain specialists having a thing they can call in, they provide that thing for others to call in just by being next to them

[wooden berry]

lol i do not speak for all Falcks but i run with ammo packs and i am generous lol

[hybrid totem]

So if you choose an ammo box your teammates can throw your ammo box

If you choose spawn beacon they can throw your spawn beacon

Use it or lose it, right?

[fervent rose]

just what i want, 2042 players picking where my spawn beacon goes

[hybrid totem]

well. Use it. or lose it.

[fervent rose]

that'll be really enjoyable

[hybrid totem]

For them

[fervent rose]

everyone would clap

[dusky tulip]

I love it when nobody on the team wants to play engineer so vehicles just decimate all of us

I try to switch when needed to take out vehicles

Falck is a good overall specialist if you get over her screamy voice

[fervent rose]

yea i would love a volume slider for personal specialist voice

small qol thing but damn they talk a lot

[ebon pilot]

everyone's got a screamy voice

[dusky tulip]

or a choice of tones, like same voice actor, but 1 is hyper excited, 2- medium, 3 - chill voice

[dusky tulip]

I don't see that in all specialists some are calmer than others

I think this game mixes both teams after each round so its not the same OP players on the same side

[unreal ocean]

Shutdown skin unlocked lets gooooo

[fervent rose]

the regular matchmaking does a lot more than that, since you're kicked to the main menu

i wish it was persistent servers with a scramble

[dusky tulip]

how do you run into slide ? just double tap circle ?

I try it but it doesnt feel like im sliding and I dont know how to continue running after

like it slides into crouch and stays crouch

[orchid crest]

Uhh press spring again?

I don't understand I guess lol

[dusky tulip]

like in BF5 you slide and keep running after no ?

in this one its different

[orchid crest]

Idk but like if you slide in reality..... You are on the ground.

[fervent rose]

depends on if you use crouch toggle/hold. and this game has a slowdown when you slide so most people jump to bypass it

[dusky tulip]

Thanks that makes sense

The bipod does not seem to affect recoil when deployed vs not deployed so why not just keep it deployed ?

I have to keep deploying it after dying I think

[orchid crest]

I think it's cosmetic but honestly some attachments don't work right anyways

[dusky tulip]

I get the reason for having the choice to deploy and undeploy the laser or flash light though

but bipod if no affect on recoil should just remain deployed

[haughty rune]

That assault rifle needs a nerf

[dusky tulip]

The sentry description says more effective when Boris is standing in the circle, has anybody compared the damage it does when not standing near ?

vs near

[tacit sorrel]

Dmg is the same it just has better targeting

[dusky tulip]

that's garbage, all I get for standing near it which exposes my location is better targeting !

[coral radish]

Anybody having issues getting on to Breakthrough matches??

[orchid crest]

On console Ps4 yah

[haughty rune]

No

[orchid crest]

There is the exodus playlist up

[haughty rune]

What day of the week does the battle pass progress

[orchid crest]

Like new week quests?

[haughty rune]

Yes

[orchid crest]

Well if you look at the weekly "bonus mission" it has a timer.

1 d 10 h 53 minutes

[supple summit]

Some one want to join me and a friend we are doing 2x xp

[haughty rune]

What platform

[supple summit]

@haughty rune ps4

[orchid crest]

I'm on Ps4 as well same name.

[torpid wadi]

Ask #lfg-playstation

[haughty rune]

I’m on series x next gen versions we couldn’t play anyway

[orchid crest]

It is unfortunate.

[supple summit]

@haughty rune yeah I'd you download the last gen version

If*

@orchid crest you trinna play?

[orchid crest]

On ps5 you have to download the Ps4 version to play with Ps4 players while on ps5

[orchid crest]

Yes.

[haughty rune]

I’m on the next gen version

[orchid crest]

I am not lol

Progress is saved FYI Michelle

My buddy just has both versions installed.

But I don't know how Xbox works.

[haughty rune]

I know but it’s a huge download

[tacit sorrel]

Shutdown is complicated for some ppl

[orchid crest]

Yup that's the unfortunate part

It's just that it was ps plus this month so it's just different over here

[tacit sorrel]

Ps plus was last month

[orchid crest]

Was it I get confused lol

[supple summit]

Bruh

[tacit sorrel]

Noobs can still play it tho if they claimed

[orchid crest]

Yup

This months games just woosh went past me.

[quasi salmon]

[orchid crest]

Yah I'm making progress I'm level 73

[carmine rover]

yippee

[orchid crest]

Ikr....

[quasi salmon]

I would play battlefield 2042 but I would rather play discord 2042 sorry man

[cosmic dragon]

Huh

[orchid crest]

Happens

[supple summit]

I wrather be a keyboard warrior

[quasi salmon]

Have you tried buying the battlepass heard they give you extra matchmaking skills

[supple summit]

Dick in hand urrrrddddd

[ebon pilot]

i just got fucking merked by rng

[cosmic dragon]

Car

[tacit sorrel]

Shutdown is ass so much noob tube spam

[ebon pilot]

no this is a car

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/850376380822323230/1071541628101210223/tornado.mp4

i got hit by a container

who knows where it came from there's no containers on kaleidoscope

[radiant prism]

L

It came full circle

[quiet shell]

Theres a couple

[tacit sorrel]

Guess I’m not winning another shutdown match every team I get is garbage

[ionic moss]

Shutdown needs some calibrations

[tacit sorrel]

All the event modes have been junk imo

[radiant prism]

Never rely on your team for support

Do it yourself, when in doubt

[robust vapor]

l000l

[dusky tulip]

Being a squad leader in this game is useless am I missing something ?

[edgy oriole]

it pretty useless all squad members do the same thing

[ebon pilot]

well, only the squad lead can mark an objective as the active target (which looks slightly different from a normal squad ping)

and that's it

[tidal trail]

Still no squad management in 2023 which is utterly insane

Basic features

[radiant prism]

There is

There very much is

[kindred flint]

lol...so im fairly sure the conclusion of exposure actually being a dogshit exodus map is the correct take

[hybrid totem]

Fairly sure? What's the remaining doubt for you?

[edgy oriole]

exposure is the most goated map that came from this game

insta classic

[kindred flint]

probably the next time i get the fucking thing and there are camping snipers up on the ridge doing nothing besides being annoying, or constantly having the lower 2 caps instantly taken back from squirrel fucks

or when im stupid enough to spawn on a vehicle/jump from a heli to take one of those lower points and basically commit unalive to get back to an actual fight

[edgy oriole]

oh you talking about cq

cq is ass

[kindred flint]

lost by 37...because its too difficult to fucking capture or hold points...

and some dipshit in a brawler wasting a vehicle slot by never being anywhere useful for the majority of the time....oh except the time they drove right into mines in the tunnel..that was a pro move

[tacit sorrel]

Welcome to online gaming

Ppl will be trash until the end of time

[kindred flint]

other highlight was spawning on the uhh...4 wheeled light tank thing, just as it was shot with the sticky nade launcher..so i popped out and instantly died

[hybrid totem]

the actual game is the complaints we got in along the way

[kindred flint]

hey i waited until 10pm to finally boot the game up...it was a mistake obviously but i waited as long as i could

[main nimbus]

Why are my options for voice chat still only squad or party

[kindred flint]

proximity chat would be the worst thing dice could add

[main nimbus]

I just want 32v32 rush back

[hearty heron]

Anyone interested in crackin some heads in bf2042 on ps4 !!

[dusky tulip]

Dude why don't people spot ? all it takes is one press of R1

and if youre dead spot so when we try to revive you we know where the threat is

[robust vapor]

Bind your spot key the same as fire weapon key

[hybrid totem]

then every time you hold down shoot, you open the comma rose

[dusky tulip]

My entire team is screaming in Russian and this goes for all specialists when im on the Russia side

might as well learn Russian for this game

[edgy oriole]

i forget there is even talking in the game to begin with

[onyx mica]

[hexed mango]

gotta say i personally find shutdown to be pretty fun, and relatively unique

kinda wish it'd be around for longer

[ionic moss]

I find shutdown fun because I can rig the entrances with C4 and blow up anyone who tries entering

[kindred flint]

its kinda shitty for attackers first side though

[wide shore]

I did have a good time with it. The first event in this game I actually liked. And felt like there was effort put into it. Even if just a little.

[hexed mango]

how many weeks is Leviathan Rising gonna be? is it just this one?

[edgy oriole]

i had fun but i stopped playing as soon as i got my last ribbon

someone said there is another week, but i havent looked up anything

[wide shore]

Yeah it’s not a mode that’ll replace conquest for me. But it was a fun distraction. Perfect for a mode like this.

[onyx mica]

i did not try it yet

[hexed mango]

yeah ill probably go back to seasons bt or smth now that ive finished it but i will say i did enjoy it

[hexed mango]

i mean i think its a fun alternative to something like rush

obviously more cqc focused and way less players

[wide shore]

I think it could be a solid competitive mode.

[kindred flint]

the only map thats the same no matter what side you start on is stranded because it has no destruction

[hexed mango]

i agree

[cosmic dragon]

It’s fun but fuck when the team don’t listen or know how to play. It makes me wanna blow them up not in the game

[hexed mango]

yeah the fact that very little people use voip is annoying

i kept trying to get my squad to help me and strategize and nobody listened

[cosmic dragon]

I don’t use it because of my Tourette’s but I’m a quick typer

[onyx mica]

my random team sometimes speak but i did not understand what they said

[wide shore]

I just played Falck with an ammo box. Smoke grenades. And healed and revived while pushing the OBJ with the Lance and smokes.

[onyx mica]

i pretended to understand

[hexed mango]

understandable

[edgy oriole]

i never use voip

but i have it on

bc im a menace

[wide shore]

I never use it either.

[hexed mango]

same, i switched between that and Blasco

[thick shadow]

I got called a french fatass when i dropped a supply crate on a teammate

[cosmic dragon]

Like if my tics weren’t racist or really vulgar then yea, I would use voip

[onyx mica]

a nice compliment

[thick shadow]

Just get out the way

[wide shore]

It’s funny how much people complained about it not being in 2042. But then it gets added and it’s not used. It’s almost like people didn’t use it in other games either.

Since I’ve been playing BF (BC2) I’ve barely come across anyone using a mic in my squad.

[cosmic dragon]

I had 1 guy in bf4 use it

[onyx mica]

1 guy

[cosmic dragon]

Great squad lead

[wide shore]

I’ve probably seen maybe 2 dozen (and that’s being generous) over the course of what, 13 years?

[onyx mica]

i see

[edgy oriole]

ive heard voip prolly 3 times in 2042

once in portal when it first dropped. then playstation hot mic. then last week

[onyx mica]

i heard people are cooking sometimes

[wide shore]

Had one guy in my squad the other day but his mic had no noise cancelling whatsoever. So much background noise.

[dusky tulip]

can we change the laser color ?

[wide shore]

No.

[cosmic dragon]

A kinda funny but annoying thing. I have a tic where I click the spacebar with my thumb, and so it makes it really difficult to plant objs or revive people

[edgy oriole]

then last week ps hot mic* again

[cosmic dragon]

Like my squad mate is down and I keep cancelling revive then jumping

[ebon pilot]

playstation hot mic
two sessions in after turning on vc when it dropped and then turned it off

[wide shore]

There’s 2 laser types. The main red laser. And the upgraded one. Depending on the gun the upgraded one is either green or blue.

[edgy oriole]

idk with playstation boys but they really know how to hot mic

[thick shadow]

I've only ever used voice in bf1 when one if my squadmate's got shot, said "shoot him!!!"

Yeah but where is tarzan that shot you mate??? 💀💀

[onyx mica]

😄

hot pancake

[wide shore]

Cause PS5 dual sense has a mic in the controller.

[twin ledge]

How and why does am40's drum mag only have 10 more bullets compared to standard mag

[wide shore]

I don’t think everybody knows that.

[cosmic dragon]

Because they can’t count

[fervent rose]

calling it "upgraded" is wrong, red laser has better hipfire

[edgy oriole]

never knew that. that is very weird

[thick shadow]

Aren't xbox players hot mics

[cosmic dragon]

I wanted it to have like 60rnds but no we got 40

[wide shore]

If people are still using a Kinect maybe.

[thick shadow]

The hell is a kinetict

[wide shore]

AM40 with 60 rounds would be insane.

[ebon pilot]

exactly

[edgy oriole]

xbox hot mic era was the kinect era

[onyx mica]

oooo

[thick shadow]

It sounds like a medicinal experiment

[edgy oriole]

and that mf was annoying

kinect was kinda dope tho. until they forced it on everyone

[cosmic dragon]

My brother has a 360

[thick shadow]

Fym forced?

[cosmic dragon]

I was gonna mod it for him but then I remembered I don’t own a soldering iron

[edgy oriole]

forced by you pretty much had to get it

and use it

it was a big annoying deal back then

[thick shadow]

Players: oh boy excited to try csgo out on xbox

Xbox: hey shit sucker, ur required to have a kinect. FCK U

[cosmic dragon]

Just show bare ass then unplug it

[wide shore]

If you don’t got a mic plugged in, it uses the speaker for both input and output. Hence the mute button on the controller. (It’s a bit dusty I haven’t used my 5 in a bit)

[edgy oriole]

if you unplug it you couldnt play xbox

[edgy oriole]

[ebon pilot]

heli physics are the dumbest shit

[cosmic dragon]

Tape

[wide shore]

That’s why PS5 players be hot micing so much.

[cosmic dragon]

And if it required to see you then blow it up and report it to the government

Tho it’s a bit late for it now

[edgy oriole]

if they didnt force the kinect i think it would still be used today but they messed that up big time

[wide shore]

It is still used today. But not for gaming

Its used in ghost hunting

[cosmic dragon]

Listening

[thick shadow]

I beg ur damn pardon?

[wide shore]

LOL

[onyx mica]

haha this is funny

[wide shore]

It is actually used in ghost hunting. It’s used for picking up movement in dark spaces.

I’ll try to find the device.

[cosmic dragon]

Doo doo do do do doo

[fervent rose]

ever land it perfectly upside down?

[onyx mica]

that is my fave clip from you

[fervent rose]

we got the best physics

[onyx mica]

i am repeating it 4 times already

[ebon pilot]

who's laughin now

[thick shadow]

So you gon tell me that there was a crackhead out there that one day woke up and got the idea of "Hmmmm... imma catch paranormal presence with a xbox kinect"

[cosmic dragon]

Yes

And I was that crackhead

[thick shadow]

What in the ass

[fervent rose]

sounds just like the thing a "ghost hunter" would come up with

[ebon pilot]

movement in dark spaces
also known as visual noise from a non-HDR camera interpreted as movement

[cosmic dragon]

I didn’t find anybody but I did find this thing that looked exactly like my dog

[wide shore]

It is a thing that is used. I’m not joking. Lmao

[cosmic dragon]

Would only appear when my dog was in the room

Weird…

[cosmic dragon]

Holy fuck

[onyx mica]

i like hunting ghost

[thick shadow]

This is why beethoven made symphony 9

[onyx mica]

im scared but yes

[wide shore]

I never said it was an exact science.

[thick shadow]

Ur fuckin with me

[wide shore]

I swear to god

[dusky tulip]

what does BC2 weapon vault mean

[thick shadow]

Shit looks like its called "GHOST CAM 360"

[wide shore]

Means it’s a weapon from the BC2 portal weapons that is useable in the base game.

[wide shore]

Based and true.

[thick shadow]

You know what this means

[cosmic dragon]

You would have a higher chance of becoming the imposter with the among us potion then finding ghosts

[thick shadow]

Microsoft made this for ghost hunting

[dusky tulip]

I never heard of BC2 what version of the game is that ?

[ebon pilot]

(BC2 stands for Battlefield: Bad Company 2)

[onyx mica]

kind people, does any of you know anything about good hotas, man, noone knows here?

[thick shadow]

Next day you'll see pewdiepie using a xbox elite controller trying to ward off spirits

[wide shore]

Perhaps. But ghost hunting stuff is fun to watch. If only just for the laughs.

[onyx mica]

fine, i will try again, tomorrow

[cosmic dragon]

Some fake shit is funny as hell

[thick shadow]

Wat

[onyx mica]

hotas!

[cosmic dragon]

When they try to pass it off as real

[thick shadow]

The fuck is a hota

[cosmic dragon]

No clue

[onyx mica]
