Exactly
hm
You could try using the M5 recoilless and trying to hit those shots. If it's any of the attack helis they're dead in 1, then the hind is down in 3
Ok so you take a rocket launcher
Put bullets and rockets in vehicle, hope this helps
And you shoot the vehicle
Or try pepper them with Crawford minigun. It spooks most pilots
hind is impossible to kill but go on
show me
if you are all THAT smart
go ahead
the hind goes down so easily now

after the update
It takes 3 rockets
It does die pretty quickly now but if no one shoots it then its not dying lmao
back then it eats all your rockets and then some. and laughs
Get 3 players to shoot it out of the 12-64 on a team
Like I just said, it takes 3 rockets to take out. that's literally 5 engineers (cause at least 1 will miss, and one will get repaired out)
lis players also exist. if both of her rockets connect thats 48 damage
Not to mention each engie has 3
thats half the life of the hind
go on
Yup. And theres always a Lis player.
you do it and show me
There are like 30 Liz players per match lmao
It's what we've been doing
clearly you havent
i love using Lis now
i dont see any videos submitted in chat
I rarely see Lis'
i like to flex her t1 skin
But you do know it's possible right
48 damage a lis'
Multiple lis players
Reee i wanna be a lil bitch 😠
The most effective way to take down a hind is scare it into crashing
what is the cooldown between the vehicle exploding and being able to use it again
I think 90 seconds
"I am going to complain that my bad ideas don't always work"
show it if its possible to be done against a semi competent player
“Try blowing it up with a rocket”
Reeee how the hell do i do that!? Prooooof give me prooooooooof
Simply get multiple armor piercing underbarrel grenade players
You could have Rao hack it and then you javelin it. Takes 2 Javelins
Hey Moder I just suddenly got busy sorry.
Or just Rao hack it
They will remember that
I'll need to get dinner and stuff done sorry.
Literally just play Rao and then all your vehicles problems go away
Honestly just throw grenades at them
Mackay C5?
Jump in a wildcat
a tor
a normal tank
the Cav Brawler with the hella OP frag shotgun thing
Use an anti material rifle
NTW does a ton of damage to them atm
Melee the hind 
go on do it and upload a video where you single handedly kill a hind that has a semi competent pilot
You could also just try it
People test the damage weapons do to vehicles, it's objectively possible
its fine yo. dont be sorry
(He is crying)
im jus chillin rn im getting kind of tired i might take a nap anyway
you are just stupid
No wonder he can’t do it, prolly can’t see shit between the tears
keep sucking boots
I was talking about qui
wut
Absolutely devastated
i was talking to way
truly stage 6 depression
truly grade 6 highest level of education u have
everytime i die there is always a tank or helicopter but someone always takes it before my spawn cooldown finishes
U a helicopter main or something
alarming pfp u have
new battlefield tweet said something about vehicle loadouts, will they pussy out on removing transport vehicle cannons again?
(yes)
thanks?
Cry
Not really I didn’t mention trans people
Lmfao calling me transphobic over something that really wasnt
Idk can’t play to see it
Bud light owner has been making far more than many transphobic remarks in the media recently
Doesn't take a dumdum to know this
It's all over multiple media sources and news sites
Main reason why their stock has plummeted recently
I can’t see this conversation going anywhere good
Just stating the obvious
Personally i’d suggest moving on before mods get involved
Not me nor my problem also i just said that cause they like the taste of piss lmao
Hey, this isn't even battlefield chat
I can’t play sadly
Oh I see where the convo came from
Of course, by no means am i saying are you transphobic, just stating why one might thing that way about said comment
Bud light is like the most watered down ass water you can drink
Most beer is, and Bud light is like bottom of the barrel beer
I just wish the report system for these games can be a bit better
Bud light basically is water lol
That's why I said it was ass water, cause it tastes like ass and is water
now for a real drink, get a scotch
Actually they need to get rid of em
We shhould all be vigilantes and have a group ban system
american beer moment
where you can vote to kick anyone in the game
Mw2 report system has an option for "bad behavior" lol
I had 1 sip and couldn't stand it lmao
Easily abusable
I think it’s stupid as shit
Asaki is great, as is great northern. Proper beers
Not to mention it's easy to false ban someone by spamming report
Only way to do it lmao
I get vc ban for not even talking
Mw2 has two ban systems tho
Shadow ban and ban
Shadow bans put all the shadow bans together to play together and eventually get banned.
Bans is permaban
Shits a joke
Shadowbans are usually for cheaters
People be abusing the "bad behavior" option lol
Ong
Rather irrelevant to BF2042
doubt it lmao
took 12 months to ban 1 hacker in OCE
It's called gameplay sabotage
loool, it would be just like cod where anyone remotely competent gets put in shadowban matches
I thought hackers couldn’t hack 2042
who said that
Game was so busted at one point the cheaters didn’t fuck wit the game
Oh yeah that's right.
It's easy anti cheat of course they can
The game was so broken to the point where they stopped development.
cheaters have been around since about a week after launch, there was one subscription service that stopped selling it when the game fucking died and went under 2k daily on steam
Lmaooo
frostbite and EAC are old and busted
Mfs got bent
Now cheaters are more prevalent than ever, and are like hella blatant most of the time
Now they are now that the game is making a comeback
If they fixed input and balance then the game will truly be on a comeback.
Just remove the sfar and RM68 then it's balanced
and no more 50mm or 40mm nades
done
balanced
oh and the mortar pod on the Mav is fucked
SCAR is alright right now, It's no longer overpowered.
the vehicle weapon seats need to be completely ripped out and redone
And if the RM68's gets its short barrel removed and ranges reduced it won't be so bad.
Playing Rush XL made me realise how fucking obnoxious they were.
Cause I'm no longer getting mortared.
I just think a decrease in it's rpm in general will fix it. Like lower its base rpm which will then lower the short barrel rpm
rm68 has so many random utility bits that i think they need to hit the nuclear option and drop it a damage tier
AND MAKE IT A WORSE M5?!?!?
if they drop it a damage tier then you'll have a gun that shoots slower than the M416, with the same mag size
people hated the scar, this is a scar that shoots faster + short barrel + grip attachments + permanent suppressor
You could lower it's 4 hit to around 25m
It only took them a while for them to complain about the RM.
They need to just remove short barrel. That's all they need to do.
anyone having issues logging in?
not on the rpt?
Forget the RPL is a thing.
Best gun in the game
Just reduce that guns RPM to 650 with itand you're set.
RPT with it's like 790 rpm with the short barrel and standard ammo is great
790 RPM with standard rounds and SB isn't that crazy as it seems.
Or more specifically.
790 RPM 5HK isn't so special.
5 hit out to I think 60m with 200 rounds. 2 hits heads inside 20 though
hey guys im having a big problem where my BF2042 is crashing with a directx error, does anyone know how to fix? tried a few things on google but nothin works
M16a3 and m5a3 can contend against it extremely nicely.
That's literally how I kill you lmao. I just hope to god 5/200 bullets hit you
Have you OC'd at all, Jubby?
I know that it's linked to the crashes but I doubt direct x is linked to that.
I'd say clear your cache, Maybe?
Could be a cache problem, could also be he has a corrupt file which is just ruining the run path between the directX file and the game files
Whats OC ?
the only problem i have with the rpt is that u cant move more than 1 inch while ads
ur practically forced to be mackay
I haven't tried clearing the cache, is that directx cache or bf 2042 cache u mean ?
Really strange though, i was playing about 3 months ago with no issues
hip fire rpt >
the m60 is stupid good still. even after the nerf
I found the M60 to be garbo
how 😨
Yeah ist weird, yesterday it wouldnt run at all and today it let me play 1 game before crashing every time
It got nerfed?
It just feels wrong lmao
Definitely verify your game files
Squad leaders system sucks in bf2042
Yeah tried that - I tried to verify, update EA app, deleted folder in documents, update gpu drivers etc
No luck so far
That's why it's getting overhauled soon (prbably)
Changed Machine GUID or something
Oh the M60 is not the LMG im thinking of
yeah in season 2
😔
I just made a minibird sweat quit after I stole his heli after he died
You thinking of the Type88?
meanwhile the avancys is still great. and the m60 is still great 😭
The PKP does its job better 😤
the nerfs didnt do anything really
How'd I just send a super reaction
they shoulda kept the whole it gets more accurate the longer you fire thing from bf1 lmgs
What the hell is a super reaction
The yellow reaction
Well it's a RIP for 2042 for me 😦 I heard its actually been updated to a good standard too, is BFV good atleast? Might download that one again
Bf5 has a far better squad leader system. In bf2042 squadleaders have no responsibility
Yeah... full of hackers
From what we've heard from devs, from data miners, and from like news and rumours, it could be going back to this
Ah really? Thats a shame, I started to experience that on BF1 aswell
BFV is so so so much worse ahaha
Haha fuck. I guess EA just doesn't want me to play Battlefield
Will squad leaders be able to call artillery strikes, drop loots, vehicles etc?
nothing will ever beat the whistle at the start of a operations in bf1 as squad lead
artillery most likely. You can already do both vehicles and loot via angel or the call in system
Based on data mining, yes
Will bf2042 have a command center like bf2?
Absolutely not
so many dicks on all out superiority knocking you over
nice
time for an upgrade
There we go again with a stealth just being uncounterable becausw hurr durr gotta target the only player capable of hitting me
just run everything in the open air
thats still gonna get into the case
Yeah but not on the motherboard and inside the gpu?
Sounds like u need a vacuum not a pc
I'd say give it like a year, and the 4070 will drop in price. HUGE upgrade over your card. Then just grab the 5800x3d
What kind of case are you looking for?
Mid or full tower?
I buy stuff second hand, there’s like a few 5700xt around the word for around 150 usd
Mid tower
I'm using a MSI mid tower case
Isn't that just an underpowered card compared to something like the 3070?
like the 3070 is a wee bit better
Let me see if I can find a good one for you
Not price wise
Amd cards are usually cheaper if a card is equivalent to a nvidia
That's fair. I mean unless you're wanting to run 1080p raytracing the difference between low end amd and Nvidia is hardly much
I have a budget
budget range?
just for the case?
Yeah
Ehhh
I can't help you with anything else sorry
Yeah i hate living on an island
Take all the coconuts on the island and sell it at an increase price u will be the richest person on the island
lotta issues trying to even play smh
just because their one game had a messy launch dont mean ea gotta punish us all
Which Island?
New zealand island
in New Zealand, the clocks run differently t
no 64 players conquest playlist...ufff
personally
i hate conquest 64 cause of the OCE playerbase who plays it
impossible to enjoy
every match is just 1 team has everything but 1 point
Dice
There is a way to make jets actually useful and not be useless for 90% of the match
Give them faster agm cool downs
Or more agms
Bombs even
their working on jet stuff in S5 i think
Pray it's faster agm cooldown
Whenever I hit a vehicle with 2 agms
The moment I get 1 agm reloaded
He already back at full health
Or let each side have 2 jets
Instead of 1
missile dump fire
no lock on should solve that issue, if you can line up a perfect shot
Hitting ground vehicles with radar missiles is hard
You line up and think your perfectly aligned
Only for it to be completely off course
Also the damage is terrible
Now give me 8AGMs

Fire 8 at once
kinda annoying how the game will show a visual hit with a tank but no damage is done
explosion and everything
i mean if they dont then those game detail channels will rip into dice
i think its more of a desync issue
Warthunder deformation in 2042
ive had numerous anti air kills with a tank ripped away from me because the game didnt register it as a hit even though the shell visually hit
unless the helicopters had aps lmao
Now realistically, any giant missile from a jet should one shot a tank
But that would be unfair
Loitering munitions when
Make it that condors don't instantly explode when reaching 0 health
Just make it crash then Explode
Or any air vehicle
Honesttly I had match where I was hitting an wildcat for 10 min with agm with jet, ai was in wildcat so it didnt shoot back, but it simply didnt die, agm in jet are so useless unless someone else is also attacking
Yeah it can repair itself or jump out and repair before a jet gets too that many agms since cooldown is so high
Jets are a waste of space in most game modes
They are not even the best in the anti air role (night bird is better), which is the one they are supposed to be good at
Most of the time they’re just running circles around each other dogfighting, but since the main gun is useless, people try to get lock ons instead
Contributing almost nothing to the game
Jets always used to be strong or overpowered in past bfs, I guess trying to avoid made them to least useful vehicle in bf2042
Having to unlock the more useful stuff is kinda wack, makes them more of a turn off to try
Same problem with bf5, egregiously so since you’re already at a disadvantage since yo us isn’t unlock the specializations
Would be nice if they were stronger to make learning them more rewarding
They were so close with the movement update but they messed up the yaw which just makes it feel even worse to use when being precise
Although if that yaw gets changed then the main guns will feel a lot better
Might just be me but I feel like the mini gun style of the main jet guns just feel super weird
I feel like I would be more accurate if it was more of a autocannon or something
Classic
that laser tank needs nerfing especially distance to damage like the NTW has - No recoil but can one shot Helis
giving a tank insanely good velocity was always going to be a mistake unless it had shit damage
but it actually has the best damage in the game
so it just shits on aircraft with minimal counterplay
Railgun Tank*
And Besides Nordvik is just BAE Systems in the future instead
as CV90's are the EMKV90-TOR
Now this is a useless addition
But I really wish I could change the lobby background
Jets are garbo
Shoot everything that flies that's on enemy team
Little birds can melt them lmao
it's only good because helis are op
conceptually it's awful
but right now it's like busting out Gun in rock paper scissors
At this point I might Aswell stop using agms
And go back to using radar missiles and AA
or
just give us the A-10
brrrrrrrrrr
can't go wrong with the A-10 just brrrrrrr-ing everything
Then make it fast

Luckily this is bf
Where helicopters can move like rc helicopters
And jets that can survive a railgun tank shot
For some reason
So why not have a very fast and flexible A-10
Even ace combat planes are weird
Ace combat was never meant to be realistic
Especially if they have a plane that can do spirals with ease
60gs
It would probably be melted by night bird 
Simply give the jet 4AAM or 8AAM
And jets will be the ultimate air counter again
Lmao 
why i can't set persistent server in portal ON?
The higher the player count on a portal server the more laggy it is
Do you have the battlepass?
Need the battlepass for persistent servers
yep i've and premium
Do you have it on in settings?
is says OFF and i can't change it to ON
8AAM?
I'd enjoy seeing the hind sweat cry lol
8aam 
Why yes giving jets 8 AA missiles and 8 AGMs in bf2042 is fair

DICE did give a flying menace something like the A10 weapon
But it was in battlefront 2
The trifighter is a beast in it
Portal warthog in 2042 when
anyone wonna form squad bf 2042 my game is updating atm
Did they nerf the pp?!
Doubt it
nerfed the peepee 
Only the stealth helis with their bombs in stealth
Nah ADMM are better lol
Also where is the Razgriz skin?
Decided to try the NTW
Blew up a T1 Ram with it, entirely deserved.
Also it’s funny to one-shot someone and see that blue armour hitmarker
Yeah that shitty little armour plate isn’t going to save you
Hi guys, I was playing bf2042, and I’m really confused as to why my missiles are not locking onto target, instead they are greyed out and it takes a few seconds. Also I really don’t get why jets lock onto me stupidly fast but it takes an eternity for my key to. Any help would be soo helpful
If it’s greyed out, they’re probably out of range
in which vehicle are you?
Or in stealth, if it’s that one bastard helicopter
I’m in the f35 and the su57
They could also be flying ‘below radar’
other jets are probably using active radar missiles, hence fast lock
active radar missiles you just shoot them and they lock on automatically
bf needs to stop putting me in matches that end 30 seconds later, had it happen 3 games in a row
bad luck
i also leave before game ends so i can skip EOR screen
EOR screen is faster since last patch, don't be that person
i can leave match and get into another match before eor ends
i want to be able to leave eor immediately
And you make people join that game and loose points by doing that
sounds like a dev problem 
You making the game worse for everyone is a problem devs should look into I agree
yes. they shouldnt force eor animations on everyone and let people skip it.
but on the bright side it isnt as bad as vanguard with their dance battle feature length film eor screen.
What do you think the vault weapons update is about ?
adding more attachments plus cosmetics is my guess
But it would have been a short time to make all that a thing
First vault weapons appeared in season 2 and people really started to ask for attachments and cosmetics since end of season 2 approximately
So less than 5 months
what im thinking is they just did enough to get the guns in the game as fast as possible and now they are gonna make them unique as well as adding attachments and cosmetics
when doesn't ea have problems?
ive never added anyone before so i cant answer that. always had other people add me
Enyone that is wanna play battlefield2042 right now on ps4

i never thought I'd see the day someone would defend the waste of time that is the EOR screen
how about I don't give two shits who had the most of anything and I want to immediately go into the next match
It’s also just not that big a deal
They put them in when they were asked at least
That's commendable to a degree
I'm not defending the existence of the screen you can't go straight past. I've complained / given feedback since BF4 about slow menu navigation.
What I'm saying is that just because we are frustrated with it - we as a community should not make the experience worse for all (including ourselves) by leaving games early, as that results in everyone getting into games that ends soon more often.
that's never going to happen, you're asking a community half of which hardly knows which game they're playing to band together and be considerate in a video game
It's like shooting yourself in the foot because you don't want to go to the dentist.
except it doesn't inconvenience the next person going to the dentist
True, need better analogy
you're only inconveniencing hospital staff, that analogy doesn't work
It's like shooting the wheels of the bus so it can't take me to the dentist.
point aside that's wishful thinking and never going to happen even if a reddit post with a billion upvotes says "DON'T LEAVE BEFORE END OF ROUND HAPPENS!!"
That's a little better at least.
Embrace karma. Just because you can't fix everything completely, that doesn't mean you shouldn't put some good into the world.
I hope you're right bonbon lad, I hope they're gonna improve their performances as well
i do enough good irl without having to pray that someone in a videogame appreciates that I didn't get them thrown into an eor screen by staying in a match i do not want to stay in
that's a ridiculous sentiment
if i wanted to be thanked I'd go play medic in Hell Let Loose
just leave before the game ends if it bothers you
Yeah, I don't buy the "because I do good things at x I don't have to do good things at y" proposition. But ok.
look at it in the other direction
every person who joins the EOR screen in place of you is statistically likely to be someone who doesn't revive or teamplay
you're doing good by reducing the amount of time others are interacting with bad teammates
it is actually more moral to skip the EOR
No, why would that be
but everyone who leaves the EOR screen early is also statistically likely to be someone who doesn't revive or teamplay...
Thus increasing the amount of time they interact with others
The one thing we can all agree on is give us persistent servers DICE
i really don't understand why the servers arent persistent
they are a thing
oh word? Whatcha know that no one else does, Arc?
portal
when there's 128p in your game why do you need a forced 30 second screen to celebrate 3 dudes, 2 of which are normally falck on revives and casper on assists
gotta pay for it hto
i mean shit normally the third guy is falck on kills as well
it's constantly the same
such a lame way to artificially extend the duration between matches
either way. im gonna do what i gotta do to skip eor. until they give people an option
just wait for the mtx. Leaving the match early will cost you 50 cents
if people like watching eor why would they complain about joining a game thats about to end and they are forced to watch eor.
im helping them get to their fav part
that's an absurd argument. They want to watch the EOR of matches they played
they played the match. thats why they get an eor
128 players seems a little bit ambitious for how the game is optimized
if they didnt play it then they wouldnt get an eor
now you're just being disingenuous
yeah, let alone no dedicated servers or a server browser or just in general that finding a game is worse than it was 20 years ago
why would the eor of the match you played make any difference
The game could maybe handle 64 players in a large map, anything more makes it feel like youre on grease with movement
like i said earlier they all look the same
Does anyone has cross play issue
A casper on most assists a falck on most revives and normally a mackay/zain/falck on most kills
everything else it shows is chaff
sounds like a skill issue to me
eor is stupid, look at the leaderboard to see who did the best easy
oh wait there was no leaderboard at launch
thats why theres an eor lol
you are correct!
Its a slight but noticeable annoyance to be slip n sliding without trying to move
Scratch that its actually pretty damn annoying
games need to bring back personal servers, server browser, etc
welcome to portal
the best part is server browser exists, but only for the mode used entirely for xp farming
Im not sure if its realism or a networking issue but you dont stop as soon as you want to ever in a 128 player match and you tokyo drift when you turn
Portal is basically a different game
they managed to make literally the worst format possible
sounds like your system sucks balls
if it was intentional it would be incredible
wow great 33% of the game has a server browser
2042 is peak battlefield
I dont know about that
portal still has no dedicated servers
When it can run bf1 or bfv at max settings, both pretty much objectively better looking games, and control like a dream, and I only experience this networking with bf2042 on a mode basically designed to fail on anything that isnt new gen console tier or above its partially the system, but heavily the fact that 128 players on a 10 km by 10 km map with a tornado going on is just a little bit much
the only winning move is not to play
Nah the only winning move is to just play 64 or 32 instead of the
i n s a n e 128 players
bfv only needs tech that was made in 2014. idk about bf1. so thats not necessarily something to say that your machine is goated.
Its not to say that my machine is goated but that a better looking game runs better with less system requirements
2042 looks way better than those games straight up
Saying BF1, one of the most beautiful games in history with a nearly perfect style, is uglier than generic shooter 2042 graphics isnt much cope
tbh i dont think 2042 looks much better on a technical level given the time after the previous games releasing (which again is probably due to 128p)
I mean modern CoD, Halo, and most free shooters nowadays have nearly identical or better graphics than 2042 does
and the atmosphere of 2042 doesn't exist at all
The only style that Battlefield 1 has is mostly dark, ash covered environments
the only style that 2042 has is fuckin shipping containers
realism
Monte Grappa, Suez, Verdun, River Somme, Heligoland Blight, Zeebrugge, Neville Nights all being different styles:
there ain't nothing realistic about the amount of containers in 2042
Considering how many cities and countries are underwater because of the rising sea levels, it actually does make sense
you could build a city out of the damn things
London is underwater and so is most of FLorida
that's the idea
Passchendale is also a special style of its own
wheres the BEDS then
Inside the containers
there are no maps in 2042 with a simple house
have you never been inside the containers???
I mean BF1 has some actual diversity, in this game I almost cant tell whether Im on one side of the planet or another
gimme a WINDOW
they heard people liked noshahr canals tdm and got the wrong idea
Not most, only from the area of Miami and the Everglades up to Lake Okeechobee
Its like in the next 20 years we found a way to copy paste kentucky across the entire planet
THE FUTURE IS NOW
So only about 1/8 or less of Florida is underwater
bed + window + table = house
For Alang India, that's LUXURY
Who knows how bad inflation hits India in 2042
considering the nopats are supposed to be going to the largest spender and we only play for america and russia im choosing to believe the rest of the world has 5 bucks between them
dont try and make sense of bf2042 story lol
but yeah
other countries are so broke that american and russia are just using them as playgrounds to kill mercenaries or something
Now that I think about it, containers actually aren't really that common in 2042. Spearhead, Exposure, Kaleidoscope, Hourglass, Orbital, and Renewal don't have containers on them (that I can remember). Flashpoint, Stranded, Breakaway, Discarded, and Manifest do. Flashpoint and Stranded are effectively Oz bases and the containers are used essentially like office cubicals. Breakaway has some because it's a military base. Discarded uses many as makeshift houses. Manifest is just a fucking shipping port.
lets be fr
they started using shipping containers so much because they are the easiest assets to copy paste
im pretty sure hourglass has shipping containers
Honestly, 50% of the buildings in the game are copy pasted assets.
near the bridge
where?
oh with 18 wheelers south korea has it too i think
i wanna say exposure has it too ontop of the middle mountain
idk about spearhead tbh i only played it like 5 times
these are just 18 wheelers
with shipping containers
They look kinda sick tho.
Why so blurry
right in the middle of the screen
?
$2Billion game and kook like ps2
i hope they never add "my speed is X, have a lovely day" to real life trucks
i just screen capped his screenshot
which has containers
Oh ok.
Is this new
no those have always been there
Then why are we talking about them, I thought they posted new hourglass rework images
1 ontop of bridge. 2 on the left of that screenshot. those 3 in my screenshot and 2 more on the left after the 18 wheelers
we're talking about containers
Nothing wrong with containers
nothing wrong just pointing the ones out to pizza
A great easy asset that works well as cover
wait where are the containers on Orbital?
Yep
OH i forgot about E1
forgot they redid that whole objective and added those containers on the east side
idk this CQ talk but im assuming e1 is the shitty rocket
E1 is on the south side of the tunnel
I guess I kinda forgot about how much random stuff they added everywhere in the rework
I haven't played CQ in a long ass time
We should be able to climb containers
Get that long climbing animation from the trailer
containers do seem pretty climbable in game tbh.


Singapore is doing fine, South Korea is fine, Egypt is fine, and Sweden is fine too
South Korea was one of the few success stories of the decade
Egypt was the only one able to successfully assimilate No-Pats back into society (even if they are propped up by a bio agri corp)
Singapore is Singapore
Wonder what happened to france after paris got nuked 
And Sweden is secure because of Nordvik
i still feel like the setting and premise were kind of squandered
the question of what happens to the militaries of countries that no longer exist is super interesting
not too surprising bc germany cant make energy on their own
they prolly went half to us and half to russia
somehow italy still exists in game
since their flag is in orbital
Well at some point a new European Union comes to rise (i.e: the faction in 2142)
my guess for the metanarrative is that geoengineering from no pats causes the ice age in 2142
Sounds plausible
What if the new EU gets formed for the coming seasons?
Probably would only be a lore thing as far as the game is concerned, however
i think they were planning for more of the story to be more direct but then Irish's VA passed away
so now pretty much all the season lore is in profile backgrounds
I could see it happening for two reasons:
- Set up a continuity to 2142
- If the ones who are left are gonna survive, they’re gonna have to pool everything they have left and work together
runaway geoengineering causing the 2142 ice age feels like the best way to establish inter game continuity and set up a 2142 sequel
this map is always so pretty
Thanks Double XP weekend..
Is S like the bf version of prestige?
yup
I see
There are normal Levels until 99, then S-001 until S-999

So we know Oz can’t be trusted, what about Wolff?
Can't be trusted!!
what in the absolute shit happened to performance
Oz killed pac, he can't be trusted!!
he did try to bomb the no-pats at nordvik, so no

alrighty then
trust no one
got it
do we have any details about Oz other than him being a No-Pat leader and wants to essentially burn what's left of the old world?
We have his actual name now
not me
give me all the files about him and everything
i need to explain some things to a friend in another server
@ivory canopy @ebon pilot @low timber @fossil trench is the bf42 mcs-880 worthwhile with the flechette rounds?
no
No
is it just absolute shit
yes
Yeah
ok
is the mcs-... let me just stop you right there pal
we are in the age of automatic old man
man why are shotguns just kinda shit on bf42, unless super up close
#01 is the best buckshot, and it’s not good ether
just use the 12m and super 500 and call it a day
guns that make no sense in the year 2042, single action revolvers, lever actions, a fucking pump shotgun....worse with 2 mag tubes! 
Your best bet would either be 01 buck with hipfire or 00 buck while aiming. Avoid point blank; you won't win against someone using literally anything else
MCS is just a bad gun all around lol
they nerfed it too much
for some reason the pellet spread is effected by ADS..which is interesting
Agreed wholeheartedly. It wasn't bad in BF4 or BC2 so...
it was bad from the start
you can't find any good portal servers on last gen
always has been
doesnt make it any less weird 
The 880 could be decent if it had a little faster rpm
all everyone plays is HARDCORE REALISM HEADSHOT ONLY
reload time kills the pump shotguns
The fire rate is too slow. The only good thing about shotguns in maps as large as in BF2042 and with as many players is how fast you can fire tbh
nah nah nah it was ok
Nah that's just more misses before you die
i like how you get two chances per day to play discarded BT and then you get put in bot lobbies until the next day
It needs consistency
if your first two matches are shit then tough luck lol play again some other day
I mean at least pump action shotguns in bf4 had a purpose
Slugs are nice for 1hk headshots but you only get 16 rounds and the MCS gets no optics to take advantage of it.
MCS is just a bad gun by concept for bf2042 tbh
I checked all shotguns in Sym.gg (it’s missing some Hardline stats) and the MCS-880 is the slowest one of all BF titles, second slowest was BF1 Model 10-A
Yeah wouldn’t surprise me 💀
slugs are so inaccurate on every shotgun at range there's no point in even using optics with them
It needs a buff
And it’s ohk headshot only up to 50m
Most I can give you is the full name: "Loyiso Okusanya"
No shit? That's terribad
Me boutta put a 15x scope on a slug so I cant miss at close range 
Meanwhile the irl use for shotgun slugs is to disable vehicle engines.
I want more scopes on the M44 and scopes on the shotguns
like, this it the best kill I've gotten at range with slugs
Just for the shits and giggles
i have the MCS 800 T1 and the gun is great, doesn't need a buff or rework.
you guys need to learn how to use it.
imagine if we had all the portal weapons available in bf42
when did you T1 it
You got quite lucky as S22 has two barrels so the slug never lands the same spots twice in a row, and you’re using laser and not accuracy boosting grip
last week
ive gotten longer range kills w slugs than that

Well I have MCS-880 at T1 and I say it needs a buff, no idea what MCS—800 is though 
Learning how to use it aside, it's outclassed by almost every other weapon in the game. Definitely any other primary weapon.
It’s not that it’s unusable. It’s just not good at much at all
MCS 880 is one of the best weapons in the game. Flank, and its kill kill kill
I remember saying that I would rather use any vault weapon than the MCS. I stand by that wholeheartedly.
No one is gonna be running it everyday. Especially when you have the other two shotguns
no way josé.
MCS-880 > vault weapons
Other 4 I’d say
12M Auto
NVK-S22
Super 500
Masterkey
The other shotguns are better for that tbh
Not from my personal experience
Oh right. I forgot about those other 2
5 if we count the M26 Mass as well
Masterkey is unironically the best shotgun in BF2042
Probably the most underrated gun attachment in the game
Dice don't buff the MCS-880. doesn't need it. the weapon is great
... and it's an attachment.
Lol right 
(im trying reverse psychology, maybe if we say the weapon is great and doesn't need rework, maybe Dice will actually do it)
Lol
I really don’t see a need to t1 the portal guns if there is no T1 skin tbh
I have the weapon T1 tho
I got only two 2042 weapons left to T1, both sidearms, PF51 and Super 500
Me too
Would be nice if I could run the both at the same time 
I have no sidearms T1 yet
was the last of the primary weapons i T1'd
i have only the G57 and the mp28 T1'd
833/1200 on PF51
807/1200 on Super 500
Might be a while since the PP2000 is just that much more practical for me to use regularly
pp2000 is good in 2042?
you mean to trigger people when you 1 shot them at close range?
oh im sorry did i interrupt your full auto spraying with an AR? 
yes
It's actually really nice
still i rather use the pp29
very few vault guns are worth running over aow guns
I need to go back using the PP29 but I'm still stuck using the M5A3 rifle
@next onyx i unlocked the standard rounds for the RPT last night...790 rpm
i mean its not a good lmg still but that fire rate is kinda funny
there are none.. altought the Gol and M16 are pretty solid... but none is better than the best 2042 weapons
xm8 at least offers fast reloads for the lmg class and its pretty good overall
I wonder what the vault gun evolution does, like ammo vise they’d only be able to add different mag sizes, anti armor and subsonic rounds, logically.
since they nerf sniping theres no really point in using the Gol.. i rather use the SWS for better magazine and suppressor when needed
pistols no, smg not really?, ar is like equal but still less customization
Lol, the Super 500 slugs still haven’t been fixed 
not enough damage?
No headshot multiplier
oh my god...gamers are so complainy
yea noticed portal seemed to have a lot more people in then normal
you think its ez to just put a multiplier on a weapon?! 
Lol, the Triple smoke grenade launcher only deals 2 dmg on direct hit 
is that a 40mm?
Yes, times 3
but a 40mm smoke from an sfar or what ever will 1 shot kill direct impact
Is the AKS good for countering fortnite players?
What do you mean?
People who run at 90mph with shotguns or smgs
zoomers that shouldnt be playing bf?
everyone should be playing battlefield
battlefield 3 and bc2...
BC2 is dying sadly
yeah i know...
EA DICE are going to pull the plug on BC2 soon
yep, it about 7-8 months
fortnite
tbh I've never played Fortnite
it was fun in 2018
after that it got pretty mid but the first half of chapter 2 was alright
yes i have played fortnite
not in the past 3 years tho
i kinda miss the oneshotting at close range
Which ones are the good vault weapons?
m16a3 or aek imo
Subsonic on the SVD and a Suppressor makes a budget Dragunov
Or rather the version of it that has a built in suppressor
I'd imagine RPK since it's a big AK
compensating?
RPK, Gol, PP2000 are all quite nice to use.

😢😢😢

badass
nothing
lore reason for why every soldier has random images
oh i was thinking about like if u were part of the military
well if nopats were real it would probably mean you were worth less than everyone else because your a filthy homeless mercenary
battlefield 3 promotional art holds up really well
anybody knows how to fix text chat? haven't been seeing any messages from players and the messages i send don't show
No-Pats 

So
I still can't play the game
I go to the game folder and try to start it that way, and instead of just not happening, Origin opens up and asks me to login which it fails to do.
So I go to EA's download page for the EA app
And can you guess what?
"Access Denied
You don't have permission to access "http://www.ea.com/ea-app" on this server.
Reference #18.97054917.1682882841.4d42b38a "
does it ever change?
I guess I demand a refund after 500 hours?
Has there been any mention of a fix for folks that don't have the Thick44 tribute stuff unlocked? Really wanted to rock it all
ziba tower should be the next portal map if they ever make one, would be funny.
damn today is a rough day
Nope
i hope they bring back the tornado in the next game
The Gvt 45-70 is pretty damn fun, what's its niche?
headshots at medium range
I also notice it has near perfect medium range accuracy while moving
yep because it's not classified as a sniper rifle
though that has the downside of no holding your breath so no sway reduction
So it's a "sniper" that doesn't abide by the same downsides, but sacrifices range and holding the scope still
yes, but also beyond 50m it requires 3 shots to kill
Basically a semi-aggressive sniper
Also yeehaw gun
example of how to use yeehaw gun

It's like a mix between marksman rifle and sniper rifle
Also switching between sights, ammo, underbarrels, and barrel attachments is amazing
oh yeah, also gvt bullets penetrate
Armor piercing and high power right?
no, all of them
I look forward for season 5. I have a good feeling about that last final season. Like a bomb!
How thick?
Collateral piercing then
yeah
High power can go through wood though ye?
probably
The poor medic thinking it's safe after ducking behind a wall
The game on PS5 has a problem, it doesnt balance the teams propely like one team was all humans the other was mostly AI
goddamn
pls use this as proof tor needs nerfing i beg you
getting this m44 t1 is gona be tougher than the crossbow

All 4 new weapons now tier 1'd 💪
Just look at that face. There's no way this is the dev that will relay your message, chunk
more importantly Cryphisss. Did you win?
always
because you ran the TOR lol
Why is the flag bug STILL existing after the recent update?! It’s so annoying!
If you lost with an 80 to 2 tor I would be very concerned
tor just be like that
Sometimes the team just don't wanna push
All you can do is lock down the angles you can
why lol 80-2 losses are an average breakthrough match
2042 teams are heavy as fuck
80 - 2 on a normal tank yeah
on a tor? You gotta be absolutely shitting on every vehicle they have
If your team cant win with you singlehandedly removing every vehicle the enemies have then they're throwing
13 vehicle destroyed, rest was infantry
Now do PF51 
the TOR does have a machine gun. Two with a good gunner
13... good lord
too many or too few for you
More me still marvelling that the tor can actually kill vehicles
...that is its main function
I've wasted entire rounds vehicle hunting with Lis to get like. 3 vehicles
13 easy breezy and another 60 so infantry just to top it off
tor is a hell of a beast
Uhhhh guys what's TOR??
rail gun tank
O
E I
it's the enemy vic that makes you say vulgar stuff
It’s even worse than before the update.
Sneak up on enemies, snipe them within 100m
I hope the next battlefield is a bit slower paced
The arcady high octane action is fun but not for long sessions
I am SO GLAD you improved on Lis!
Thank you! Now I can no longer go: "HEY! THAT HELICOPTER WAS MINE!" when wanting to get that Tier 1 outfit.
my only hits with lis's rockets have been infantry, jets and helis always manage to dodge my hits.
When will Dice enable Mouse and Keyboard for console in crossplay mode, this feels like abuse playing against PC
I wish I got paid to play bf like Cryphisss, instead I get paid to google shit.
I am a BF fan off work hours, just like you ^^
Lol, I get that I work in I.T. and manage my own homeserver so same idea.
I played with Cryphisss before he became DICEd up 🙂
I know that guy as well
thank you for the great gunning/repairs
i wish bf would stop joining me into games that end 30 seconds later
i've had it happen like 12 times today its maddening
anyone unable to start the game
give more details of your hardware
tonight was weird, people giving up when I'm near them as medic, engis near my browler not repairing...sadge
sounds like a normal match of battlefield to me
there was this dude who didn't know that engineer class has a torch now...
people still think the game hasnt changed since launch so makes sense
