battlefield-2042

[remote kiln]

I don't like DICEs model with 1 map per season, but at least they're transparent on why

that's a far cry from where we were even at launch

[jovial jay]

I guess they are tired now, or having their team diverted to other project

Back then the amount of content pump is a decent amount

[edgy oriole]

the next multiplayer experience prolly still just in the thought process and doesnt need most of their team. is my guess

[remote kiln]

at least with this team the next game (hopefully) isn't going to be a mess on launch

though one thing I'm hesitant about is their comments on wanting to lock weapons for the next title

[livid swift]

I'm still a dreamer for new portal maps, even bf4 era

[edgy oriole]

if they lock weapons they gotta add features from bfv. we all know medics gonna get the best weapons and they are gonna go back to not helping/supplying the team

[remote kiln]

it was mentioned fuck all anywhere but they discussed it when they added the class system

conspicuously in a tiny footnote at the end of the update notes, tldr is they wanted to for the class system, but couldn't since the game was already out

and "we'll consider it for the next game" (paraphrasing)

[jovial jay]

Lol yea

Bf1 fedorov avtomat medics know this

[remote kiln]

if they a lock a minority it's fine

DMRs snipers etc

[jovial jay]

Assault rifle medic will likely ignore you or not having any medical equipment at all

[humble helm]

Oh right I want portal weapons

How do you get into coop?

[remote kiln]

doesn't really make much sense having an assault carrying a ntw

[remote kiln]

conquest option, solo is on the right

[patent path]

joyride

[acoustic seal]

shitty weapons just make people not play medic even harder, pick your poison

[chilly jacinth]

i pick cyanide

[inner ether]

What's the solution to the game never starting? Several attempts now

[edgy oriole]

end task of EA app in task manager repair game and check drivers

[acoustic seal]

nothing unless you start doing superstitious shit like not focusing other windows while the game is loading

apparently i've spent my allotted 2 full discarded lobbies for the day and only get bot lobbies now

[inner ether]

If you have an entire day of great games, the next time you play will be the opposite

Those are the karma rules

[acoustic seal]

the matchmaking is just busted in 24/7 discarded for whatever reason

[inner ether]

THere is no matchmaking to speak of

[edgy oriole]

even when the game wasnt doing good and had a low player count. i still think servers being broke made it seem worse than it was. if this makes sense

[inner ether]

Randomness dictates that SOMEONE out there will get nothing but DIscarded

[acoustic seal]

oh it wasn't broken before, and it is broken now

the game was really that dead and should've stayed that way

[inner ether]

I'm telling you there is nothing to break

There is no matchmaking

It finds X number of people and starts

[edgy oriole]

well before it would be servers that wouldnt get more than 10 real people on each side. or just broken lobbies in general.

[acoustic seal]

yes that's the busted part

[edgy oriole]

or like i personally couldnt find real people games unless i partied up with someone else.

which is why they should bring server browser back

if you getting pub stomped by a big community. leave and join another server.

[inner ether]

Well I can't get the game to start so I guess I'll play some other game that fucking works when I start it

[acoustic seal]

good god, you need to have shadowplay/OBS on at all times just to review the deranged shit that kills you

[chilly jacinth]

sounds like a skill issue tbh

[acoustic seal]

i just watched a guy completely eat 15 m5a3 bullets because he was in the prone transition animation and then accidentally pkp 2 shot me

[patent path]

It's like staring into a TV

[placid echo]

I like your name

[patent path]

It's always gamer hour

[elfin coral]

mfw the sight has wifi and cellular service

[placid echo]

Records your trickshots in 4k60fps

Your war crimes too

[copper ice]

you mean they released a finished game AND two dlcs before launch? it's like different flavours of shit

either you get 70% of a game upfront while they make the rest of it or you get 70% of a game upfront with another 40% behind dlc upfront

[patent path]

I deleted the Profsave and reset everything, game put me on 720p

still looks good ngl

[onyx solstice]

This looks fire!

[onyx solstice]

Sheesh!

[delicate yacht]

Wish i can play that rn

[acoustic seal]

i would have like 9 infantry kd in this game if the mouse didn't shut off during recoil

[onyx solstice]

Same

[onyx solstice]

...

[delicate yacht]

I got banned ☠️

For 7 days

[onyx solstice]

Oh? Why so?

[delicate yacht]

Called someone a bud light drinker

[onyx solstice]

Ohhhh, that doesn't sound too good...

[delicate yacht]

Lmao how

It was a joke and plus they insulted me

Modern gaming is super soft

[onyx solstice]

I dont get banned on other games since I am best friend with the dev.

[onyx solstice]

Oh if he insulted you, he deserved it.

[acoustic seal]

is there a problem?

[delicate yacht]

Well i got the shit end of the stick

[onyx solstice]

No.

[onyx solstice]

I do believe so.

[delicate yacht]

Yes i got banned he didnt

[onyx solstice]

Oh boy.

I mean, I usually chill

I have therapy in 1 hour so I gotta bounce.

Have a good day yall!

[delicate yacht]

2000-2014 best times for gaming

No reports all insults

[bleak nebula]

getting friendly assists no idea why

[tidal trail]

Why was he flying so high? Never seen anyone dumb enough to fly that high in a helicopter to be so easily shot down by a jet

[bleak nebula]

a lot of helis are flying high in all out superiority

[humble helm]

How do you use the (Portal) variants of weapons?

Im noticing they let you unlock the vault weapons using their portal counterparts but Im not sure where youd get them

[void hedge]

in portal modes

[acoustic seal]

last patch broke it so kills will also count as assists

double mastery progression looool

[warm stirrup]

Considered transphobic

[bleak nebula]

free points I guess

[copper ice]

get better insults

[patent path]

my gun's gone

[void hedge]

Fist of the North Star

[patent path]

it makes the thermal sight my entire screen

[hybrid totem]

"They insulted me, so I insulted them and got banned"

I wonder what the difference was

[warm stirrup]

More like
"They insulted me, so i became transphobic"

[granite island]

Jet players are having too much fun with that rodeo

The moment I see a jet flip upside down I fly away from it

Not gonna appear on reddit

[warm stirrup]

What's cool on this game is when you exit your jet, you can still ride it from the outside lol

Don't even fall off

[granite island]

I wanna try doing it and get a kill with it

[rustic mango]

Why's my game slow I using rtx 3060 amd ryzen 5 3600 16 gb ram

I need help

[patent path]

because you have a ryzen 5 3600

[rustic mango]

Yeah

Do you have method fixed problem on games

[patent path]

cap your max frame rate in Nvidia control panel to 60 so you get less stutter

you can't do much

[rustic mango]

After games fixed I don't know

[patent path]

turn on motion blur to mask the low FPS

[rustic mango]

Okay I using settings low

[plain hamlet]

do any of y’all have a fun bf2042 streamer that’s not a sweatlord that gets angry every time they die

[rotund raft]

Why is my battlefield download slow?

[dusky tulip]

This game is frustrating by nature like the reworked discarded map is a bunch of tubes you look whichever way there could be an enemy behind you.

[open hamlet]

Anybody flew at an enemy jet and shot it with a rocket while outside your jet in mid air?

[plain hamlet]

i know but its honestly hard to find any battlefield streamer that’s not just venting and venting and yelling “UR SO TRASH” to every person that kills them

[rich elbow]

I once drove a jet for 30s without crashing

[plain hamlet]

like is it too much to ask for someone that’s just chill

[open hamlet]

Who do you watch?

[plain hamlet]

damn more than me

[hybrid totem]

You're saying there's a market for streamers who enjoy their work?

[dusky tulip]

Yeah thats like being a sore loser.

[plain hamlet]

rn no one, i’m scrolling through bf2042 channels trying to find someone entertaining

already got banned in enders stream so that’s something

[karmic egret]

Morning gav

[open hamlet]

Is it bad that idk who that is?

[rich elbow]

https://tenor.com/view/hello-there-hi-there-greetings-gif-9442662

[plain hamlet]

i didn’t know him either till i clicked on his live and immediately got bombarded by rants after dying once

[bleak nebula]

drove or flew

[karmic egret]

Gav
do you have a day off
tommorow

[rich elbow]

as you can tell I’m a pro jet player

[open hamlet]

What does he stream on?

[rich elbow]

Monday? Yeah

[open hamlet]

I like rage moments like that ngl

[karmic egret]

Neat

[open hamlet]

Does he carry his entire team and still loses?

[rich elbow]

I’ll do a little bit of work but otherwise I’ll have the day off

[karmic egret]

Any ui changes coming with s5 that your able to share?

[plain hamlet]

he’s the type to go 30 on 0, then when he dies he goes “fucking trash game so bad, how are my teammates this bad, god i hate this game, such a bs kill”

[rich elbow]

Probably not, I don’t think we’ve communicated anything about S5 yet

[plain hamlet]

so i said he shouldn’t cry about every death and he then went on a rant about me and i got banned

[karmic egret]

I did see on the twitter pages that the dev team is next week going to start releasing details on s5 over the course of may

[plain hamlet]

honestly someone doesn’t have to be a god at the game, i just wanna watch someone who at least acts like they’re having fun

[bleak nebula]

sometimes I wonder why they play the game when some people are raging all the time

[rich elbow]

Oh nice, yeah generally speaking im always going to be very quiet about anything that isn’t officially released. Given comms is not my area of expertise. But I do like getting feedback on UX/UI and so on of course, happy to battle for the players in that regard 😄

[plain hamlet]

people sometimes just take bf waaaaay too serious

like listen, i get that it’s frustrating when u one have one of those days where u just keep dying and dying

but these people go on a 30 kill streak and get mad they die

[open hamlet]

Maybe make friends so you don’t do everything alone?

Lol

[karmic egret]

What would I need on my resume to apply at DICE

[open hamlet]

Bruh I would too though!

[humble helm]

Im liking the ARs, I might try out a Marksman rifle some time

[plain hamlet]

i doubt anyone would enjoy his company for more than 5 min tbh

just watching him made me die a little inside

[rich elbow]

I’m going to speak very generally here, rather than DICE specific. But ultimately it really depends on what you do. It’s not necessary to have a game dev background for a lot of positions in the industry, which people don’t always know. Experience in the field of work in another industry can be an advantage as many skills are transferable, but you also offer a perspective from another kind of industry which can offer new ideas.

But the best things I can suggest is to have a portfolio, a well presented CV, and an education or background working in your craft will help a lot. There’s also internships that studios offer which may be of interest.

But I can’t speak more specifically without knowing the kind of positions you’d be applying for. There’s hundreds of role types in the games industry 😄

[open hamlet]

You might be right

I came across somebody who was very good at the game, and he was in a clan, but for every death he always ran his mouth as if he was right about everything

When it came to wiping squads, he’ll go nuts about how he shouldn’t have died even though we still cleared a squad together

[carmine rover]

is there a way i can check what region server im playing?

if i join a breakthrough can i see if its ASIA server? because it feels like everyone i join i start to lag

maybe it is my connection. but is there a way i can check

?

[rich elbow]

You can see your ping when you bring up the scoreboard if that helps?

[carmine rover]

yeah

i dont think i can see the region. but its okay

i just want to sometimes play in different regions

because my region sometimes doesnt have enough playercount

[dapper river]

I hate dozer so much bro's

[karmic egret]

Gav on the scoreboard can you put another slot in to check other people's pings

Also um can we can an opacity slider for the minimap and flags aswell as the kill feed because when I look into the sunbox it becomes near unreadable

[rich elbow]

On the note of the scoreboard, there’s some performance considerations when adding 128 players worth of info (like pings). So that may be tricky, and perhaps not the best use of bandwidth. I reckon that’s something that would be problematic.

And I’ll try to remember that but keep in mind it’s weekend for me right now I’m not working 😄

[carmine rover]

its party time gav. go live it up

[plain hamlet]

dude the hitbox on his shield drives me crazy sometimes

as a good rule of thump you always gotta act like the shield has spikes on it, and u wanna hit em with the end of the spikes, not the shield itself

since the hitbox seems to be slightly in front of the shield

[dusky tulip]

Bro the bipod keeps folding after each respawn I have to keep deploying it why can't it stay ready ?

[carmine rover]

ah sory

[arctic grove]

game is doo doo

always better to auto deploy when near a ground or low wall

[rustic mango]

Thanks for xp on games

[spare quest]

youre welcome

[rustic mango]

I'm am new players I using ea play pro I have lag on games

[foggy ibex]

Hello I’ve a few questions about Xbox controls

Anyone able to help me with Xbox control settings?

[turbid compass]

Me going into winter 👁️👄👁️

[radiant prism]

Got danced on

[wide shore]

Sure. What do you need help with?

[sour dock]

Why does dozers sensitivity revert to a vehicles sens when you pull out the shield?

Literally makes no sense and makes him trash for me

Because I'm on console so his sens goes super slow whenever you pull the shield

[copper ice]

so people can shoot around him but it's done badly

[onyx solstice]

... What did I just see?!

[onyx solstice]

Bahaha, I can't believe he has the balls to say that because I do believe he won't touch grass either

[foggy ibex]

They feel so floaty

On foot I normally get 40 kills per match with assault weapons but sniper used to get 40 as well now I can’t with snipers and it’s harder for me to control weapons

I can’t even fly an Aircraft controls are all over the place

[slender isle]

Has this been since the last update?

If so it’ll be the uniform soldier aiming

[foggy ibex]

More or less few updates ago

[slender isle]

Hmmmmm

[foggy ibex]

I’ve that on always

[slender isle]

Ahhh okay. Have you tried it on other games to see if the controller is the one affected?

[foggy ibex]

Now it’s floaty and feels like there’s acceleration

[foggy ibex]

Yeah no other game has this problem

Aim and Sensitivity is very inconsistent

Which gets me killed in the most embarrassing ways

[slender isle]

Hmm

[foggy ibex]

Past bf games i had no problems getting 100 kills per match since the controls felt smooth

[slender isle]

Try messing with your sense and your ads coefficient

[foggy ibex]

I’ve

[slender isle]

Well then it might just be the game

[foggy ibex]

Oof

[granite island]

I would like 1 more rework

For kaleidoscope

Pls

[arctic grove]

This is the game, I am having the same issues as you and have been since launch

[dusky tulip]

What is EA play pro ?

guys whats the best Avancys setup ?

Im not sure if Im using it in the best attachments.

[arctic grove]

Safest bet is to put the horizontal recoil control barrel on, and lwg grip and bipod in plus menu

Sights of your choice

[dusky tulip]

Im gonna try it with Arcom tactical which controls horizontal

[arctic grove]

Yea that should be the name. I usually forget

[dusky tulip]

using the lwg grip already, subsonic rounds with suppressor, but I might try short barrel for higher rate

high power magazine only has 50 bullets and for a LMG it takes like 20 seconds to reload

[sturdy socket]

i can't be the only guy with the constant directX errors

[sour meadow]

I reaaaaaally want a 2042 version of the g36

[sturdy socket]

i don't know whether my patience is insanely high to deal with at least 5 crashes a day or that I'm just out of games to play but this is unbearably shit to deal with

[sour meadow]

Or g3a3

Or fn fal

[sour meadow]

Gpu?

[mental delta]

Next season guns are probably a sniper and DMR

I hope too but my expectations are low

What's interesting though is the upgrade for vault weapons

Can't wait to see what they planned

[sour meadow]

3 new sniper rifles, and 1 recycled

That's terrible

[mental delta]

1 recycled ?

[sour meadow]

Gol magnum

[mental delta]

It's a vault weapon so it's kinda normal lol

[slender isle]

Let’s collapse the A objective over the skatepark

[sour meadow]

Idk

I want all new stuff

[mental delta]

I'd like new stuff too but they won't increase amount of content each season

[sour meadow]

Like i think the amount of guns overall now is okay but it's mostly vault weapons

[granite island]

Really I just want more fire and smoke pillars everywhere

Including fire and smoke pillars on buildings

Objectives

Ruined floors and walls

No large leveloution

[mental delta]

Lmao it's almost fake numbers, vault weapons themselves represent 50% of the weapons now

[sour meadow]

Yea. And we haven't gotten any new sniper rifles at all

[granite island]

It would be cool the first few times

But then it would be annoying

[slender isle]

Okay yes I agree

Like the main building in the middle being on fire or something

[mental delta]

Yeah right it's like they completely abandoned this weapon category as well as DMRs

[slender isle]

I meant have it be collapsed already

[granite island]

Yeah something like that

[mental delta]

Kaleidoscope is badely designed anyway

[slender isle]

It’d be good. I think it’s probably the only map without it now

[granite island]

Now put a large crashed satellite directly in the middle of the map

[slender isle]

Wouldn’t take too long either. You just add fire effects here, smoke screen there, tire fire there

[granite island]

You know how the windows are just a pitch black void when you destroy them on buildings

[mental delta]

That would make more sense than a random empty building with only a secret USB disc nobody has seen and nobody knows what's on it

[sour meadow]

I was thinking earlier

What if the ac 130 came back on rails like in bf3 and 4, but when it goes down, it creates levelution

[granite island]

Fire pillars coming from destroyed windows on buildings

[slender isle]

Wait, why?

[granite island]

The building in the middle of kaleidoscope is boring

[sour meadow]

*kaleidoscope is boring

[slender isle]

I like the middle building

[mental delta]

At this point we got enough explosive air vehicles but I give you credit for this

[slender isle]

The only boring bits of Kaleidoscope is the middle bottom area, and the entire top area

[mental delta]

It's empty and badly designed, it should have an access on the top

[slender isle]

Maybe

I’m not sure. Kaleidoscope is terrible on conquest but I love it on breakthrough

[granite island]

I still think my concept of a weather power gadget would be nice

[mental delta]

I don't play on it a lot ngl

I usually get to play on seasonal maps

[granite island]

Imagine if there was a weather power gadget

Simply summon a tornado on any map

Even breakaway

[mental delta]

Especially Breakaway, it was planned to get a snow tornado

[willow sky]

i wouldnt mind a map based off firestorms

[granite island]

A white tornado you can't see because of the blizzard

[mental delta]

A blizzard would have been fun

[granite island]

I still think removing the observatory was a bad idea

It was what made breakaway unique

Now it's plain

Atleast make it a hq spawn

Hopefully hourglass doesn't go from large map to Flashpoint small

[gentle mica]

I could get behind that

[plain hamlet]

a forest fire or sum

[mental delta]

It will go from a walking simulator to a walking simulator with sandbags

[granite island]

Hourglass

But this time

The international space station crashes on the map

[mental delta]

Wait

It would actually be a good idea

Because this map is said to be the introduction one

Where a satelite crashes down

[granite island]

Also wasn't there news of a satellite crashing a month ago

[mental delta]

Irl ?

Idk

[granite island]

Yes

Satellite crashes in Sahara desert

[mental delta]

As long as it doesn't fall on people it's ok

[mental delta]

No-pats want to know your location

Yes the thing they talked about in game news, on Twitter and in dev update

Yeah it feels better now

Can't wait to see recoil fixed on vault rifles

[granite island]

OK so if we

Crashed the ISS space station in hourglass

It would be a new objective

Because it's the size of a football field

But the real question

Is where do we put it

There are lots of empty areas on hourglass

But which empty area would be best

[dusky tulip]

WHat does the timer below a vehicle mean like under attack helicopters it shows 00:01 but its not a minute because its been a minute and it does not change

[granite island]

Personally

I say change B1 and replace it with a crashed ISS space station

[fresh lintel]

I saw a video of someone playing in the stadium and I want that over the current B1

Which is: Whoever captures it first loses it.

[dusky tulip]

in the 128 player mode on PS5 PC XBOX , the stadium has 2 flags to capture, on base consoles ps4 xbox one those don't exist.

[fresh lintel]

What the hell

[arctic grove]

Can we have breakthrough for portal pls

[dusky tulip]

yeah I noticed this while comparing both versions lol

like ps4 version and ps5 version

[fresh lintel]

So all this time ive been playing thinking Hourglass was just A BBB C with a constant stalemate at B?

Smh.

[sturdy socket]

yeah, error_device_hung or error_device_removed

those two particularly

[sour meadow]

i mean what's your GPU

[sturdy socket]

rtx 3060 ti

running directx12

[sour meadow]

make sure your GPU is fully seated in the motherboard

[sturdy socket]

i've never had this error in my life before I played 2042

it claims either the GPU is disconnected or there is a software upgrade

yet i'm at the latest version

[sour meadow]

yea i see a lot of people coming here saying they're having trouble running the game and having gpu related problems

[sturdy socket]

yep

[sour meadow]

i'm running a 3070 and i never had problems. so i doubt it's performance related

[sturdy socket]

i've got no clue what it could be

so it bothers the shit out of me

[sour meadow]

the difference in specs should not be this dramatic

it would bother me too

[sturdy socket]

my friend keeps getting kicked by EAC

[sour meadow]

maybe check out some forums or reddit threads? maybe go to /battlefield and make a thread

that too

[sturdy socket]

honestly should be illegal for foreign anticheat to be used in games from the states

just me being bothered by it but that presents a massive security risk

[sour meadow]

this game isn't from the states

is it?

[meager girder]

Probably a connection issue with the AC servers

[sturdy socket]

ripple effect is based in LA

[sour meadow]

isn't it from stockholm?

[sturdy socket]

so

[sour meadow]

oh

[meager girder]

ACs do that

[sturdy socket]

made in china amirite

anyway

[meager girder]

I mean 2042 was built on a skeleton team

So it makes sense

[next sorrel]

dice is sweden

[sturdy socket]

technically developed by both

that and criterion games

[next sorrel]

ok but dice lead the project

[sturdy socket]

nice

[next sorrel]

its a dice game with some extra work from ripple effect and criterion

[sturdy socket]

it sure needs more work lol

[meager girder]

Meh it’s too little too late

Even if the game was exceptional it won’t be the Bf experience since it’s communally dead

no late nights with a full 8 man

[sturdy socket]

they're still slowly patching it up but holy shit some of the releases needed some looking at

rm68

tor

that kind of shit

[next sorrel]

bf2042 will never be good

[meager girder]

Yeah sadly

[sturdy socket]

remember all the hype? fuck lmao

[meager girder]

the game isn’t the same without a community

[sturdy socket]

glad i still stuck to my guns and didn't pre-order

[meager girder]

Smart move always

[sturdy socket]

the only reason I got into this game was because of a friend asking if I wanted to SOFLAM

and they murdered that element like, a month after I joined silently

[meager girder]

Most AAA devs now use pre orders as investors bait instead of actually fulfilling any promises

[sturdy socket]

since javs cant lock through walls anymore

yeah unfortunately, it's still considered fine to release a game in a horrible state and slowly patch it up

instead of releasing it in a decent state

[meager girder]

Really

But it think it’s good because now we’ve really really got rid of all the mistakes possible to make

No more paywalls

No more half ass releases

[sturdy socket]

ahaaa you forgot one aspect

[hallow sierra]

theres a low chance they are going to look in to that weapon

[sturdy socket]

fucking railgun tank

[meager girder]

😂

[sturdy socket]

could have done entirely without it

[meager girder]

I mean balancing is still an issue 😂

But I don’t think any game has been balanced off launch as expected

[hallow sierra]

i should use the k30

i havent use it in a while

[meager girder]

No

Why play the Game when you can sit in the back with your tank and take pop shots?

get with the times man it’s blueberry year

[hallow sierra]

i suck with vehicles

[meager girder]

Trust me

That’s not a problem 😂

[hallow sierra]

i remember trying to use a heli and i kept crashing it

[dusky tulip]

Im practicing heli in the new portal all vehicle mayhem

I still crash it

[copper ice]

the issue is that it's a year after launch and it is still horrendously balanced

if 2042 was released in the exact state it is currently in, people would call it a busted game

[hallow sierra]

i gave up on trying im sticking to infantry gameplay

[copper ice]

it was just so bad prior to now that it's being praised as a comeback

[dusky tulip]

BF1 is still the GOAT

[copper ice]

much as i enjoyed bf1 at the time, coming back to it is so ass

40% of rounds i played had cheaters in them

the rest had such fucking insane mortar spam that i gave up playing

felt like 90% of the enemy team had scoped lmgs and airburst

[dusky tulip]

on console cheaters don't have much advantage luckily just easier weapon handling less recoil but no wallhacks or aimbots.

I still find it enjoyable a lot

[copper ice]

i definitely feel like battlefield as a whole is a game better on console

my memories of bf1 and bfv are both better on console

[dusky tulip]

I would like to try it on my PC but its not gonna manage this game. It couldnt manage BF5

Im talking about 2042

[copper ice]

i couldn't run bfv well but my pc runs 2042 surprisingly well

like it's actually really well optimized for me for some reason

[hallow sierra]

i used to rather play 2042 on pc but after i kept playing on controller i stop complaining

[dusky tulip]

Been using controller for years on BF games on console and still I don't stand a chance against a PC players aiming speed. Mouse can point at a pixel in a fraction of a second, controller is always all over the place

[hallow sierra]

also the fact that AA can screw u over

[copper ice]

thats definitely the biggest advantage of pc

[fresh lintel]

Oh is this aim assist talk time?

[dusky tulip]

but for the most part on console the game is ok as long as nobody hacks a keyboard into their console

[copper ice]

being able to do a 180 instantly is just on a different level to controller

theoretically you can do that on controller with whacko sensitivity but 99% of controller players don't do that

[fresh lintel]

Which is getting common. XIM and Cronus users shouldnt be allowed on the game

[granite island]

How about

B1 is replaced with the stadium

And the area that had the stadium

[fresh lintel]

99% of Console players cant do that. To be able to aim at that high sens and aim well? And not be fucked by Aim assist?

[hallow sierra]

ok im going to be honest

[granite island]

Is replaced with the crashed iss space station

[fresh lintel]

You'd either have to be a god or you're doing something funky.

[hallow sierra]

i use a cronus its called pulling down on r3

[fresh lintel]

RIGHT?

And apparently theyre always sold out too.

[granite island]

Walking into best buy

A whole isle section for cronus like stuff

[fresh lintel]

Because people learn about them. And then ofc want to buy them because Wow! MNK on my consoles?

And honestly I dont have an issue with them being a thing. I'd love to play singleplayer games with a MNK on my xbox.

[dusky tulip]

I encounter script users on console in fighting games a lot its because of the Cronus adapters. Its not so bad on FPS games but if they can plug in a keyboard and mouse then yes they have an advantage

in fighting games though it makes a huge difference because the adapter can perform combos not easily done by humans

[hallow sierra]

i want to see how AA would work on MNK

[next sorrel]

imagine playing 2042 lol

[azure cradle]

2042>bf5

[fresh lintel]

Look at Halo Infinite. Its broken.

Which yes if you did not know: PC players cried their way into keeping a bug as a feature.

[next sorrel]

every bf ever > bf5 tho lmao

[fresh lintel]

Because "Wah the console players have higher accuracy than us" when PC players had better movement.

[next sorrel]

aim assist should not exist

get good

[fresh lintel]

Aim assist is a requirement for consoles.

[next sorrel]

i think bf3 is better than bf4

ong

[fresh lintel]

BF3 was peak in skill IMO.

[hallow sierra]

im trying my best

[acoustic oar]

30hz servers are quite meh

[hallow sierra]

i got my first 100 kill game last week

[next sorrel]

ok but better maps

way better maps

[fresh lintel]

And balance. Much simpler attachments. Less guns but they all made sense.

[copper ice]

it's not like 2042 servers are much better either

[fresh lintel]

I forgot if theyre better than Planetsides or not

[dusky tulip]

Subsonic rounds guys theyre amazing

a non suppressed weapon feels like it has a suppressor

[fresh lintel]

I'd use them more but I cant say no to high powered or standard

[acoustic oar]

Google says 2042 has45 HZ. Bf1,4 and V have 60hz

[dusky tulip]

High power is great with the long barrel if you want to kill from range

[fresh lintel]

Unless its the SFAR

Which then it doesnt need it

And I dont like using long barrel outside of snipers honestly.

[dusky tulip]

I heard its very good too

[dusky tulip]

it works well on LMGs if you like to relax and camp lol which sometimes I do when Im tired of rushing objectives.

[fresh lintel]

I'd probably do that on breakthrough or certain conquest maps

[dusky tulip]

some vault weapons are cool I like using many of them

[fresh lintel]

Once I get done T1ing the SFAR

[forest snow]

m5 with heavy rounds and long barrel perfect set up

[fresh lintel]

And AM40, i forgot about that gun

I used M5 with just LWG, Standard and uh.. either the recoil + Barrel or the Accuracy +

[rustic mango]

Who's Can't your help me level up I'm am level 16

[fresh lintel]

I forgor it was my first T1 lmao

[dusky tulip]

Anyone compare which laser is better the basic red one or the new blue one ?

[hallow sierra]

blue

u get recoil control

and hipfire acc

[dusky tulip]

so its better but its also brighter

seems like it can expose you easier

[zealous bough]

Hi all,guys can you tell me how to add a friend with the EA app on win10?

[hallow sierra]

well its a good trade off

[granite island]

Wait how is there a 96 player server

🤔

I thought it was 64 128

32

16

[copper fulcrum]

Is it Portal?

[zealous bough]

Hi all,guys can you tell me how to add a friend with the EA app?

[humble helm]

What are some good weapons to try to get at the start?

[dusky tulip]

I wish we know

I dont use it

[hallow sierra]

i would say m5

or pbx

[zealous bough]

so the AAA game has no way to add friends by adding them manually?

[hallow sierra]

i think so

[dusky tulip]

I just destroyed a tank with my pistol

Jk my teammates did it I was just shooting at it with a side arm for moral

[granite island]

What the

Hits jet with tor shot

Gets a hit marker

[neon igloo]

Anyone here disable HPET?

[copper fulcrum]

If it's portal, you can have any amount of players between 1-128, 1-64 if on last gen

[next sorrel]

no but i disabled AIDS

[meager girder]

who is HPET?

And why are they disabled?

[next sorrel]

vietnam hero

[meager girder]

oh

[neon igloo]

HPET is High Precision Event Timer

[meager girder]

Oh

[neon igloo]

Disabling it gives FPS and lowers latency in game.

[meager girder]

Well I hope Mr. Timer is well

After his vietnam service

[next sorrel]

he gets some nightmares but hes been recovering

[acoustic seal]

disabling it causes your system to use other sources of time and fucks up FPS readings

[neon igloo]

evidence? because google says otherwise.

[acoustic seal]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/cgi1td/3700x_analysis_pt_deux_notes_about_hpet_and_smt/eui813g/

why this keeps coming up every couple years is a mystery

[neon igloo]

So that's 4 years old

This is two

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TF-jpouz7b8

[onyx solstice]

Im going to look into the issue stated by the message you replied to.

[acoustic seal]

we love recency bias

unless it's a windows specific bug he's talking out of his ass

[kindred flint]

niceee +1 more loss on new discarded time to discard this from my playlist

oop...game blacksceened when i exited the match so i couldnt see the nice bp100 pop up

[twin ibex]

bro nobodys on the t1 servers at night usually

sucks man I'm so close to wildcat t1

[granite island]

Did they nerf the tor shot

Why does it do a hit marker against jets now

Maybe I should use HHV

HV use to one shot

Idk what happend

[sturdy vale]

I'm gonna lose my shit if I'm killed one more time by a player on the spawn building in kaleidoscope

[crisp geyser]

Why is the battle pass stuck. I have been on 85 and is goes no further

[rustic mango]

Anyone do u play games

[granite island]

Can tanks have something similar to the cav when a enemy is near them

Pls

[meager girder]

nah

[granite island]

Jesus that's brutal

The flying container in the tornado turned me into mist

It made a squish and crack sound

[lilac crater]

Did they nerf the rm26 yet

[acoustic seal]

no lol

[carmine rover]

i love playing rush as the defenders. getting 10 defuses in one round and still losing

because my team doesnt do anything to help

[acoustic seal]

a plague upon whoever decided to put the mav in rush

[torpid wadi]

Guess you will need to bump it up to 11 defuses in a round

[granite island]

So that's what happens if you crash your jet into the rocket

[carmine rover]

i hope they step on a lego

[carmine rover]

i guess so .. maybe thats the answer

[fervent rose]

a plague upon whoever designed the mav in the first place

stupid fucking sandcrawler

[torpid wadi]

Lets just put a plague on everyone

[carmine rover]

mav has the widest body of all the vehicles but yet it always find a way to swiftly dodge my rockets

[torpid wadi]

Keep it simple

[carmine rover]

excluding me please 🥺

i dont want plague

[torpid wadi]

I said everyone

Exclusions complicate things

I like it simple

[carmine rover]

😢

even you?

[torpid wadi]

Which is why i only read picture books

[torpid wadi]

Everyone

[carmine rover]

would corona be considered a plague?

whats the definition of a plague

[torpid wadi]

Thats a good question

For which i don’t have an answer

If you find a picture book explaining it please let me know

[carmine rover]

okay!

also i want to flex the statline i had earlier today

using sundance and ntw 50

[torpid wadi]

Well done

[carmine rover]

thnk u :3

[frosty mural]

Anyone else got choppy sound with the new update?

I never had that before..I did get a steel series headset, could it be because of the gaming profile should I turn it off

[lilac crater]

Why does the DXR feel so inaccurate?

I want to like the gun but it just doesn’t feel accurate at all

[carmine rover]

snipers arent worth using. unless its the ntw

they dont one shot and everyone head is the size of a peanut

[hasty hound]

I’m getting very sick of this vehicle only mode

Why is there also aircraft?

[copper fulcrum]

Because those are also considered vehicles

[hasty hound]

Yeah it’s unfair. I am in a tank and I can’t do anything against helicopters.

I have zero access to the wildcat because too many people are using them

[solar tinsel]

Not that I've really been a huge sniper player in any BF titles, but sniping has felt noticeably different in 2042 compared to other titles, and I can't really figure out why

[carmine rover]

they dont one shot

[solar tinsel]

Even compared to other BF games that didn't one shot either

perhaps those didn't have scope sway, but I don't think it's that it either. It feels like its harder for me to see the projectile arc or something

maybe I'm making stuff up, but in BC2, BF3, BF4 it a felt a bit more easier to imagine your shot, at least for me

[next sorrel]

bc2 was probably the easiest game to snipe in

at least out of all the post 2010 battlefield shooters

bf3 and bf4 found a good balance

idk about 2042 i played it twice but the maps are so much bigger so heads are smaller

[fervent rose]

i think its a combination of how the core strafing movement in 2042 works and how the input is not perfect

it feels different than bfv, thats for sure

less responsive/crisp

[solar tinsel]

thats probably a good assessment.

To be honest, I've also had a general issue with how the aiming feels on controllers, but Im sure its all platforms

I despise how for tanks, the turret continues to move after you let go of the stick (unless you're zoomed)

and the Wildcat response curve feels bizarre too.

It feels like input lag but billed as an immersive feature or something. Don't even get me started on jet sluggishness

[next sorrel]

watching videos the movement of... everything in 2042 just feels off

way off

[solar tinsel]

Yeah - still a fun game now, but that's the one part that never felt right to me

Tanks move slow enough in 2042, it's a shame the turning is input-lagged on purpose

[next sorrel]

bf3 has more detailed turning idle and turning animations so obviously its the 10000% superior game

[solar tinsel]

To this day I think BF3 was the most significant game in the franchise

It may even be the best, although I have a lot of nostalgia for BF2 as well

[next sorrel]

definitely, either that or the bad company series

its my favorite game, i never played bf2 so i cant judge it but it does look fun

i started with bf1 so you cannot call me nostalgia blinded

[solar tinsel]

For its time, it was very good. I think a lot of the mechanics from it don't hold up today with modern FPS standards, but it was a lot of fun. The maps were great too. I'd be down for another Karkand remake, plus another map

Like, if people experienced the spread that was in BF2 today, they'd lose their minds

[next sorrel]

lol yeah, people HATE spread nowadays

[fervent rose]

or the dolphin diving noob tubes

[next sorrel]

random question but do you like bf3 or bf2 karkand better

[fervent rose]

though they did get toned down

[solar tinsel]

those were the days. POOMBALA! Dive

[fervent rose]

on launch bf2 movement was insane

[solar tinsel]

yeah they did thankfully

[solar tinsel]

To be honest, the BF3 remake was incredibly well done, although I was only on console for BF3

I think I'd give the point to BF3 simply due to it doing a great job taking the map, being faithful to it, and making it look great

[next sorrel]

yeah, the remake i think is great, i did hear one youtuber say the bf3 remake opened up too many buildings and kinda watered down the street combat so thats why i thought id ask someone who played both

[fervent rose]

bf3 karkand should have had the whole crossing the bridge area

[solar tinsel]

It did on PC, no?

[next sorrel]

theres a bridge to the G point on pc

[solar tinsel]

it didnt use all 3 points on the other side?

like I said I only played 3 on console

[next sorrel]

they cut out a couple points

[fervent rose]

i remember it being limited idk

[next sorrel]

but there is a bridge section

it was always a riot flanking a flustered defending team on karkand and stealing all the vehicles out of their base and driving back across the bridge

[solar tinsel]

strange

[next sorrel]

the orientation of the map is flipped apparently too, if you never noticed

[solar tinsel]

ha I did - same with Kalediscope randomly depending on CQ or CQ64

console got to experience the bridge side a tiny bit in Rush at least

but, I'd love for a 2042 remake of Karkand, cause it'd be the first time console could play the whole map. Plus I feel like the map could be expanded to fit 128 with some adjustments

but shit I'd take any BF2 maps

[next sorrel]

the valparaiso remake was the only thing that tempted me a few times to buy 2042 fully lol

[solar tinsel]

its a shame it wasnt easier for the DICE/Ripple team to port maps over more easily

[fervent rose]

i think karkand in 2042 would be less fun. too easy to get on roofs with mackay

[solar tinsel]

I feel like a Portal map per season would be nice

[solar tinsel]

perhaps!

[fervent rose]

like it wont play the same thats for sure

[next sorrel]

i feel like that is why siege of shanghai or dawnbreaker is currently not in portal lol... too many sundances and mackays parkouring everywhere

damn im making so many spelling mistakes lol

[solar tinsel]

The density in 2042 definitely is not as high in 2042, perhaps thats due to player count or some other limitation

[next sorrel]

you said 2042 twice, did you mean 4?

[solar tinsel]

ah sorry yeah, or in previous titles like 3/4

Although I suppose the new reworks have offered denser areas

[next sorrel]

yeah its good lol im screwing up my messages too lol

[solar tinsel]

but there is no dedicated urban infantry combat map ya know

plenty of maps with areas that have that

but nothing with no air vehicles and so forth

like, any of the BF3 Aftermath maps

[next sorrel]

epicenter is such a good map

[solar tinsel]

that whole DLC is great

[next sorrel]

yep

[solar tinsel]

probably underrated too given how late it launched

[next sorrel]

totally underrated

[solar tinsel]

it felt like a love letter to the BF2 urban maps people loved: Karkand, Sharqi, Jalalabad, Warlord

[next sorrel]

end game is great fun too, i love bf3 ctf ngl and those maps worked fantastic for rush which just happens to be the best gamemode

[solar tinsel]

For some reason those maps always surpise me when I see them again. Those linger less in my mind, but I agree there was good fun in them

[fresh lintel]

Battlefield 3 maps worked perfectly for that game. Canal? 10/10 Conquest map for vehicle play because there was more vehicles IIRC. But also no single engineer could kill a tank with a RL unless the tank was really stupif

The rush maps were also 10/10

[next sorrel]

yeah probably last dlc sydrome, bf4 reveal trailer released same day as the full release for endgame too afaik which didnt help lol

[next sorrel]

noshahr canals tdm area is legendary

[solar tinsel]

yup, its like Battlefield's version of shipment

[fresh lintel]

I used to play TDM back on 360 and I got banned from a few servers for being nearly unkillable 👉👈

One of them was because SPAS-12 which was understandable lmao

[next sorrel]

i am painfully slightly below average lol but i did get hackused once

couple of guys who were somehow worse than me

bad company 2 and battlefield 3 are tied for best maps in the entire series imho

battlefield 2 had great stuff but valparaiso, arica, damavand, all great and iconic

[solar tinsel]

yeah. personally I give the edge to BF3, but both had excellent maps

that was a golden era at DICE for sure

[next sorrel]

yep, both bc2 and bf3 only have one map i would consider bad but even then i can tolerate it way more than the bad maps in other games lol

[solar tinsel]

are you gonna say Tehran for BF3? 😅

[next sorrel]

nah actually lol, i like tehran pretty alright except for stage 1 on rush

[solar tinsel]

I actually liked it, but I know it wasnt popular

[next sorrel]

the map i dont like is bandar desert actually lol

biggest battlefield map ever is impressive but it felt pretty barren and everyone would just b-line to the one great neighborhood area

[solar tinsel]

ah right, the "largest" at the time at least

its pretty much a 2042 map in spirit

[next sorrel]

its still the largest apparently

except for bfv battle royale mal

[solar tinsel]

is it really?

[next sorrel]

well, according to battlefield wiki

[solar tinsel]

That actually might be correct now. I'd have thought Breakaway was in its original form

if you include the in-bounds areas that are pointless

so it's kind of a false positive

[next sorrel]

yeah

maybe theres just like some sort of unspoken size limit for battlefield maps

once it goes past that it usually goes downhill

[solar tinsel]

someone would have to bust out a ruler ha

[next sorrel]

lol yeah

[solar tinsel]

yeah - I also am not so sure the sectors approach was the right way to go about it.

I know someone at DICE said "oh we can't just add more flags" but I kind of wonder if that is what was needed. More places to go, with more flags to therefore spread players out more

but I feel like 80 or 100 might be the sweet spot

[next sorrel]

doubling player count was definitely for marketing

[solar tinsel]

for sure

[next sorrel]

92 might be interesting though

[solar tinsel]

I think >64 can be done, but might need somemodifications

I also thought in addition to flags, they should add other POI that can be captured and have other team benefits

Like, a flag point that if controlled doesn't count for tickets or player spawns, but adds more vehicles to your team's pool

or, perhaps a station that while under your control, you get something like the gunship from BF4

I think if you give more tasks and play experiences for people to break off into, it might work better

I always felt thats why Titan Mode worked so well

[next sorrel]

2042 definitely needed points that gave stuff like gunships

maybe bf3 dropship return too

[solar tinsel]

Plenty of things can be done

[next sorrel]

128 players REALLY requires that you have top notch map design to funnel players into key areas

[next sorrel]

yea

[solar tinsel]

A barracks, that if controlled, your team has a 20% speed respawn bonus

Like, make it kind of like a mini "royale" map in Conquest - still have it be conquest, but give players objectives to go for

If commander mode returned, they could give squad assignments

[next sorrel]

yeah

[arctic grove]

Delete jets pls

[solar tinsel]

For some maps, I'd be all for that - and I like to use jets!

[arctic grove]

Playing jets is basically forcefully handicapping youself

[solar tinsel]

Jets are just not very good in 2042

[arctic grove]

I have a solution

Buff the Wildcat

[next sorrel]

just delete 2042 and replace it with an install of battlefield 3, all our problems are solved

[solar tinsel]

ha it already has been!

[arctic grove]

Bf4 has no custom games with bots

Sadge

[solar tinsel]

Honestly I fully endorsed the Wildcat damage buff, but was surprised to see the range buff too

[arctic grove]

How tf are Helis better at countering jets than actual AA

And also there should be 2 classes of jets

Bombers and fighters

Like the A-10 and F-18

[solar tinsel]

Honestly if they arent gonna make the jet more manuverable again, then I'd just buff the 30mm the same way the 25mm got buffed and just reduce the spread of it. The spread gets so stinking bad on the 30mm its insane

not to mention the projectile speed

[arctic grove]

Both should be in different classes

[humble helm]

I love the idea of the SVD being this half ar half marksman rifle with how aggressive you play with it

[arctic grove]

30mm is dogshit

Imagine hitting all your shots with 30mm and still only halving a tanks hp

[solar tinsel]

Yeah, I've been trying to use them again - but I still think the 25mm is better thanks to the buff

[arctic grove]

Only for that tank to repair

And then using 2 agms

[solar tinsel]

yeah, and thats assuming all your shots hit considering even after tapping, it starts to spread so wide it misses

[arctic grove]

And then still only halving the tanks hp

[humble helm]

I mean the SVD, the thing fires pretty fast for a 2 shot kill up to about 30 meters

[arctic grove]

Delete jets and just add boats ig

[solar tinsel]

Is there a short barrel on the SVD? If so I gotta try that ha

[humble helm]

Oh the SVD only has a silencer, but it becomes so quiet itll be near impossible to detect from 40 meters or more lol

Its like a slightly loud airsoft gun

[solar tinsel]

Before I take my leave for bed. late night youtubing had me find this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jFpXbnHWUc

which, if DICE ever remakes a BF2 MEC map again, if they don't use or remix the original MEC theme then I will be thoroughly disappointed. My only grips with the BF3 remakes

DICE at least made it up with the Dragon Valley remake music

[next sorrel]

at least the mec music plays in the map

[fresh lintel]

I just want my railgun pickup

[solar tinsel]

yeah, I guess partial credit 🤣

The Dragon Valley BF4 music treatment literally brought tears to my eyes. It was such a tasteful rendition

BF needs to go back to music like that, more melodic IMO

2142 had an excellent suite of per-map music too in that same style

I know BF3 did well, and I think that sold EA on sticking with that sort of glitch-style ambient, but man, we gotta return to melody

[next sorrel]

but yeah i do agree that it kinda sucks all the back to karkand music is just reused loading music from the base maps. i never really thought about how interesting a battlefield 3 style mec loading screen track wouldve been until, well, now

[next sorrel]

the glitch style is my guilty pleasure lol

[solar tinsel]

I'd love a treatment akin to the Dragon Valley one, to the MEC theme

faithful, but remastered

[next sorrel]

yeah

i know its not the most popular, but i loved battlefield 3 and 4s soundtracks. not to say i dont also love the orchestral and other stuff too

[solar tinsel]

For sure, I don't hate them. I think DICE has just rode the coattails of BF3/BF4 so much that they think the music has to stay the same. In all fairness, BF1 (and BFV from what I heard but I never played it) did have melodic music if I recall

I'm just speaking modern strictly

[next sorrel]

if we ever get a bad company 3, which we wont, but if we do, it better use orchestral music

keep the legacy

bf3 trailer are so simple yet so good

just gameplay, music, and lots of added bass

lol

[onyx solstice]

Omg, I hope so!

[solar tinsel]

I really need to go to bed but, holy shit I just found this CN theme cover and it's amazing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WD0rUm-ZZXA

(typical YouTube late night insomnia ha)

and its recent! wow!

[fresh lintel]

Also discarded is better but its still just: Control the boat control the match

[humble helm]

M16A3 might be my favorite gun so far

[next sorrel]

in 2042?

[humble helm]

Ye

Max damage (4 shot) up to like 50 meters before drop-off and you can mount a shotgun as well as a GL

It's hilarious to get a direct impact with a smoke grenade and actually kill someone with it

[slender isle]

Not really. If you control C you control the match. this is due to it being a single cap sector making it easier to hold, plus whichever way you go you will always have 1 other sector to hold

[slender isle]

It's a 5 hit out ot 50m, but a 2 hit to the head within 20m

[humble helm]

So it's consistently 1-2 bursts depending on range

[slender isle]

Same as the M416, however that has less rpm and also less ammo reserves by around I think 90 rounds

[humble helm]

Considering how good the BFire is for recoil management

[slender isle]

Oh yeah it 1-2 bursts easy

I usually run it full auto, spray someone down even at like 60m. It's incredibly accurate

[humble helm]

The thing is an ass blasting wonderful time

[slender isle]

I find both the M16A3 and the AEK are crazy weapons to use, even though they have different use cases. Same with the M416 and the Mtar

[humble helm]

You get your choice of under barrel gun with a vertical foregrip and you just commit murder

[slender isle]

Did you play it when it came out? the bouncy nades went through irish APS so they just murdered on stranded breakthrough

Especially when you could use Angel crate to completely resupply them

[humble helm]

Oh nah I just got it today actually

I can sense how busted this thing is immediately

[slender isle]

Then when 3.2 rollled around it had 15 underbarrel nades 😳

When used with assault

[humble helm]

Who would win

Shotgun ape

Gigachad smoke launching underbarrel sniper

[fresh lintel]

Also can we just get rid of the whole spawning on squaddies? Like?

Killing 3 people and finding out someone is just prone and hiding just to pop 3 people out again when you leave is fucking infuriating.

[slender isle]

Smoke launcher

[slender isle]

That's been in the franchise since literally forever

[fresh lintel]

I know. But at least games like BF3 had control areas that made sense.

[humble helm]

It's amazing how this is one of the first games ever to actually realize how hard grenades are shot even from underbarrels

[fresh lintel]

Now its: Good luck finding the bastard because they can be above you. Below you. On a railing. In a tree.

[humble helm]

Vietnam

[fresh lintel]

It literally feels like it

[next onyx]

By the way the m16a3 is a 5hk not a 4hk.

But it kills very, very quick.

[humble helm]

Oh

[slender isle]

That's really only a mackay

[humble helm]

Well I can't count when the thing shoots at a million billion rpm

[slender isle]

You can usually wipe a squad if they're actually being a squad

[slender isle]

Want another cracked out gun? the new LMG: RPT-31

[humble helm]

Ironically you're in more danger if the squad is half dead

[humble helm]

Thank you

[slender isle]

800rpm with a 5 hit kill and 200 round magazine 🥲

[next onyx]

The m16 ruins people at a range.

It's so much fun.

[humble helm]

Not many games I love the meta but this game

I LOVE the meta

[next onyx]

There needs to be some fixes but it's not that bad with a few.

[slender isle]

That's cause there are like 3 weapons per category that could be classified as meta

RM68 needs a damage range nerf

[humble helm]

Pretty much

[slender isle]

but you know

[next onyx]

RM277 and saiga are still overpowered.

[upbeat sand]

why does basically every battlefield trailer EVER have someone shooting aircrafts with a LMG or AR

[humble helm]

And on top of 3 per category each one can be customized even in combat

Which is a really cool feature

[next onyx]

If you want something with a bit of ammo try the m5a3 with short barrel and standard extended.

[humble helm]

Switching from close to long range in the snap of some picatinny rails

[next onyx]

45 metres less range than the m16 but it's much more balanced.

[dusky tulip]

115 - 0 LOL this player man everyone is saying he cheats

[next onyx]

Actually do you use heavy barrel?

[humble helm]

Oh I don't mind ammo

I use the heavy barrel on some guns

[next onyx]

Laser and HB work wonders.

[humble helm]

Occasionally I find it a little off

[next onyx]

Fore grip works as well.

[humble helm]

I'll try that

[next onyx]

Yeah it's a portal gun they were made for a completely different game.

[humble helm]

Man though, the M16A3 makes welcome to the jungle loop in my head

[next onyx]

Foregrip can help equalise the recoil from HB making it a pure bonus attachment.

[humble helm]

Foregrips fix everything

[next onyx]

Just keep in mind. Fore grip on the m16a3 and m416 works differently versus other guns.

In that.

[carmine rover]

hey way r u pleying rn :3

[next onyx]

It still reduces recoil. But on those few guns it doesn't reduce accuracy.

Not right now but I do plan to get on soon.

[humble helm]

Dear god so it's all benefits

[carmine rover]

when u get on can i pley with u 🥺

[next onyx]

Of course.

[humble helm]

Supposedly the NTW-50 hits like a freight train from up to 100 meters?

[next onyx]

Yeah instant kill there.

[carmine rover]

u can shoot them in a foot and theyll still die

ntw my baby

[humble helm]

Not To Worry for snipers

[next onyx]

Fore grip is useful but think of it like training wheels since the recoil it reduces is pure vertical, same with HB's effects.

Once you get the gun down just go for laser and you're set haha.

[humble helm]

It's like the Martini Henry from bf1 but you're just eviscerated from any normal range

[humble helm]

Which gun?

M16a3?

Or I guess anything with laser

Does it even increase accuracy while aimed?

[carmine rover]

the only thing i wouldnt put laser on is the vault lmgs. they kind of need grip. but laser for all other guns

including snipers

[humble helm]

I know it says hipfire but they also don't say foregrips work differently on some guns

[idle lion]

this game is so fucking unbalanced

[humble helm]

I think this game gets way more hate than it deserves, it's probably the best multiplayer AAA shooter for new gen but only if you're willing to delve into devilish tactics like meta

[idle lion]

more like if you decide to buy a shitbucket and live in your parents basement

[humble helm]

You can get some of the best guns in a day or 2

[idle lion]

yea and guess who uses the best guns

[humble helm]

The VietnamA3 for example, 5 shot with low recoil, high accuracy, underbarrel launchers, and an insane firerate

[idle lion]

people who live in their parents basement with a shitbucket under them(aka level 999s)

[humble helm]

People who like to win

[idle lion]

so people who like to not touch grass

[humble helm]

If you're gonna use a less than meta gun in any game you should expect to die more

[idle lion]

doesnt matter what gun your using when theres some shitlord who hasnt been outside for eons on the opposing team

[humble helm]

Its more of a basement dweller thing to main the worst gun anyways

Doing good with a good gun is much less time intensive than doing good with the worst one

I'd just suggest trying out the meta until you have a 2+ kd consistently before moving onto your favorite, it's a good strategy for most shooters

[humble helm]

What's your opinion on the 1911? Personally as a bf1 player I'm loving how hipfire compatible it is as well as an 8(+1) mag instead of the usual 7(+1 )

[carmine rover]

i have it tier1

[fresh lintel]

I dont really use vault weapons. I used the 93R and it felt awful to use. Which wasnt the case in BF3

[humble helm]

I can imagine the 93R in particular being bad

[fresh lintel]

And so far none of them besides the Rex feel good. I'd just stick with the G57

[humble helm]

I guess

[carmine rover]

im trying to get all the sidearms t1

[fresh lintel]

Unless you actually want something balanced, which the NVK pistol is nice. The P90 pistol is actually fun (bad but fun)

[humble helm]

G57 has 18 rounds and takes 4 rounds to kill as opposed to the M1911 having 9 and taking 3

[humble helm]

It could be efficient though

[fresh lintel]

G57 also gets Extended mags and drum

[carmine rover]

g57 gets like 36 with drum

[humble helm]

I mean having the same magazine for both your primary and secondary

[fresh lintel]

And it has a burst mode. Which means one burst > That juicy head.

[humble helm]

The ICantHitAShotToSaveMyLifeInator

[fresh lintel]

Trust me with its burst mode you can just spam and win

[humble helm]

Yeah it's an ugly but efficient gun

[fresh lintel]

I'm a bit biased against the thing because its almost braindead.

[carmine rover]

g57 with laser. drum mag. u dont even need to aim in

[humble helm]

I don't like it because its design isn't smexy enough

[carmine rover]

i wish the vault weapon sidearms can have laser sight on them

[humble helm]

As someone who uses the M16A3 with the 1911

[carmine rover]

the mp443 would be so good to use with laser

[humble helm]

Instead you get an underbarrel flashbang

[carmine rover]

which is so trash and pointless to use

unless you want to be spotted by the enemy

[humble helm]

I mean if you only turn it on when they know where you are it might be better than nothing?

[carmine rover]

i rather have nothing than the flashlight

[fresh lintel]

At that point you might as well have a flash bang

[humble helm]

It makes the 1911 uglier anyways

Silencer however can make for some goofy flanks

[carmine rover]

meow

[torpid wadi]

It is important to always choose drip over function

[humble helm]

^

Finally someone gets it

[slender isle]

Only laser you shhould use is the blue one

And don't use thhem on snipers, you can see them from miles away even if you don't scope in

[humble helm]

They have different laser colors?

[carmine rover]

i use stnr if they dont have the mg laser

blue laser isnt for all guns

[carmine rover]

yeah

[slender isle]

You have red which is standard, then 2 others which act basically the same but 1 usually has more accuracy

the other colours are blue and green

[humble helm]

Can't wait for the black laser

[onyx solstice]

I will try it. Thanks!

[carmine rover]

my current t1s

[onyx solstice]

...

[carmine rover]

wut

[slender isle]

Shame on you for not using the MP28 and Mtar to T1

[humble helm]

What's a t1

[slender isle]

shame on you

[carmine rover]

mp28 sucks

[slender isle]

1200 kills with each weapon. You get a skin and one of those cool player card badges

[slender isle]

Hipfire king

[carmine rover]

i also have all the operators tier 1

[slender isle]

Not a fan of the PP2000?

[carmine rover]

ill eventually do it

[humble helm]

Even vault weapons?

[slender isle]

The sfar but with shit bullet velocity

[carmine rover]

yeah. every red diamond u see is a tier 1

[slender isle]

You don't get a skin as of yet but you do get the badge

[humble helm]

Oh

[slender isle]

the skins are coming next season hopefully in 5.0-5.1

We are getting news of this within the next week or so

[humble helm]

I kinda want a 1911 skin like the Package From Home in BF1

Red grip, silver metal

I like shiny guns

[slender isle]

[carmine rover]

‘evolving’ is such a vague word. it could mean they are getting performance changes with no new attachments or skins. or everything

[slender isle]

They already said they're working on skins for it, and they also said they're working on attachments

[carmine rover]

where

[idle lion]

garbage game. single semi competent pilot can take out the entire enemy team

[slender isle]

evolving could just mean that they're bring each vault weapon more in line with 2042 guns through faster bullet velocity and similar damage values

[humble helm]

Just shoot it down

[slender isle]

In multiple podcasts, dev briefings, and twitch streams

[carmine rover]

i watched their podcast and they didnt say anything about adding new skins or attachments

all they said is stay tuned

[idle lion]

"just shoot it down"

[young panther]

my t1s = 0

[idle lion]

go do it if you are so smart then, show me how its done
